“So you’re finally back.” The bitterness and judgment in Ezra’s voice were written all over his face as he looked at Fleur intently.
These words seemed like a big tidal wave that suddenly came crushing on the feeling of peace and happiness she felt. She can feel a tight knot forming in her stomach as she met Ezra’s probing gaze. She swallowed back the spiteful words she wanted to say to him so badly, instead, she thought to herself that she must be careful. What she has with Zeeb cannot be discovered especially by Ezra. He is formidable and extremely territorial and she knows, that to him, she is but a thing, a possession, and being his betrothed, she can never be too careful, he will stop at nothing for her to be all his. She cannot let Zeeb be caught in the crosshairs of a powerful immortal and their ego. She has to protect him at all costs. Even if it meant she needed to pretend that she is loyal to her clan and to this man who is towering above her. The man she despises with all her heart.
She calmly went out of her car and stood before Ezra who has been waiting for her in the driveway. She fakes a sweet smile and went to close the gap between her and Ezra. She toyed with the buttons of his shirt and looked him in the eye. “Why? Are you jealous of my new toy?” the words made her cringe inside, Zeeb is far from being just one of her human toys, he is everything to her.
“Toy? Are you sure about that?” Ezra replied with a raised brow.
“Of course. He is human Ezra, what else is he good for?” She said flatly to him.
“Don’t you ever lie to me!” He growled at her angrily as he gripped her neck tightly.
She was stunned and scared at the same time. She looked him directly in the eye as his grip on her grew tighter, she must appear free of guilt, she must seem like she doesn’t care.
He looked at her intently, slowly loosened his grip and his gaze suddenly changed from anger to doubtful and then to desire. He let his hands caress her neck and he lowered his head to kiss her where the marks of his fingers were as it fades. His kisses were hot and full of need. Fleur let him and she braced herself as his control takes over her, washing her fears with desire for him. She caught his hair and she forces him to face her, their gazes met for a brief second and it was enough for Ezra to see that she was in his control. She hungrily kisses his mouth her tongue probing his, as she fumbles for the buttons of his clothes wanting nothing but to tear it apart. He answered her advances and savored the sweet taste of her lips on his. He can feel his need rising and his manhood hard as a rock as they grind and push at each other.
He quickly scoops her to her feet and dashed her inside the house, up the stairs, and to his room. In a flash he was on top of her and her back is on the soft satin covers of his bed. He tore at her shirt and yanked her jeans off of her exposing her silk black underwear. He was like an animal, he needs her, to claim her as his once and for all.
Fleur let herself be completely under Ezra’s control, she couldn’t think of anything else but the need and primal desire that she is feeling right now. Immortals are sensual creatures and they mate insatiably they are no longer just two separate beings, they are one with their desire. The need to consume each other is all that stays.
She pinned him down and removed his clothes in a flash, as his magnificent body all muscled and chiseled to perfection gleamed before her, she was aroused to the point that she cannot really think anymore. She kissed him forcefully and he answered her every kiss and touch with the same ardor and need. He pinned her down again and this time he kissed and bit her neck down to her breasts as he frees them and held them recklessly in his hands, he grips her butt and kissed her stomach down to her heated core. He made love to her using his hands and tongue as he tasted every bit of her and she let him. She gasps and moans as she grabs his hair, he stops and positions himself to her and he pushes in her with all his strength, no tenderness or hesitation, he claims her with no thought just pure desire to be one with her. She welcomes his every thrust with her own as they grind together not wanting to separate as they pound at each other almost violently, faster and faster.
In one moment, she suddenly snaps out of it and the thought of Zeeb's face and kiss invaded her mind. She welcomes it as she was close to finishing, she thought of Zeeb and she gave her all to Ezra as they both pant and grabbed each other into heavenly bliss. He lay on top of her motionless for a moment and just as quickly lay down beside her and closed his eyes. She was still in shock by the magnitude of their love-making, her legs are throbbing and she felt satisfied but tears streamed down her eyes. As she turns and lies there with her back on him. She was grieving for her and Zeeb and for that moment she realized, she is still Immortal and Ezra is made for her. They were meant to be.
Immortals believe that you have found the one if you are able to match each other’s strength and desire, it was evident that she and Ezra were a perfect match and she knows it, but her heart, if she had any, is yearning for the gentleness and peace that she felt when she was with Zeeb. In her heart, she felt like she was cheating on him, but if this is what it takes to keep him safe and always have moments with Zeeb, she will do it. Even if it meant she needs to sell her soul to the devil, the man who is lying beside her completely satisfied and asleep.
The hours passed and she did not rest nor sleep. As the night turns into morning all she can think of is Zeeb and how she would give everything to be with him. She left Ezra’s room, and as she got out, her father’s voice greeted her. “I see that you are finally taking your duty to this family seriously.” “Yes father, I know what I need to do,” she replied pointedly. “You should.” He said pacing the halls, leaving his words hanging as if he wanted to say more. “I should get going, I need to get to school. I need to keep up with this charade so I won’t jeopardize your plans.” She said as she started walking towards her room. He dashed to her door before she could open it, blocking her way, and said, “I know you have been toying with that Zeeb guy.” She gulped as she brace herself for what he was about to say. “Yes,” she replied trying not to show her anxiety whenever Zeeb’s name is being mentioned. “I have been watching you, Fleur, there is something about that human that concerns
Hours passed, and the sun turned into a lovely glow of gold, as the cloud's hue changed into a purplish grey, Fleur and Zeeb sat together marveling at the sight as the breeze turns cold. Her head was on his shoulder and Zeeb’s arms wrapped around her. It was a picture of happiness and love. Unknowingly though, a dark shadow is watching from the lush forest a few miles away. Gregory is lurking in the background, his green eyes sharp, looking intently at his target like a predator stalking his prey. A small smile formed on his lips as he moved quickly back deep into the forest and to the Landry’s home.Gregory is a fine soldier himself, he always has been Ezra’s greatest ally, together they led wars and were pivotal to the fall of New Orleans. He was a great strategist and a loyal ally to Ezra’s clan. He has always believed that the Vlads are the clans to rule the world and the whole Immortal family, though Damas’ is an influential Immortal, but the Vlads, for him are superior. He never
The night was clear with thousands of stars shining brightly as the crescent moon illuminated the soft glow over the sea. Zeeb and Fleur have been talking for hours none stop about their likes and dislikes, just really getting to know one another and at times when they fell silent it did not feel awkward at all, it’s a comfortable silence, the one that you only experience when you are with people who makes you feel at home. The silence was broken by the howling they can hear from a distance.Hearing that, Fleur suddenly felt rigid, she stood up, and her eyes seemed lighter than before, almost glowing in the darkness, he swore he heard her hiss. He stood up and touched her arm as if to comfort her, she must have been scared by the sound, Zeeb knows exactly who it came from but he cannot tell. He was also on alert knowing full well that, that call is a warning from the Moon Pride Pack. After their last gathering they have been joining their night patrols as part of their training, he s
Zeeb’s house is a stark contrast to her own. They live in a cozy cabin near the beach, the fresh air with the scent of salt water is strong you can almost taste it. The crashing of the waves can be heard in the near distance. Inside the aroma of wood and food is mixed in, the place is a home, not some fortress she lived in. As they went inside, the laughter and chatter can be heard immediately. It was a welcoming sight to see a family like this unlike theirs which is all cold and formal, one might think they entered a funeral. Here, they seem to genuinely like one another compared to her home where she is sure everyone despises one another in some twisted way. Chief Robe greeted them with a big smile on his face, “Well, who is this beautiful princess you brought here tonight son?” Her face flushed red at his flattery, she knows she is beautiful but every Immortal is, it’s part of their charm, they were built to look magnificent almost like Gods in the eyes of mortals, it’s what makes
Fleur was heartbroken. She had fallen deeply in love with Zeeb, a Lycan, who she had thought was different from the others of his kind. But now she knew the truth. Zeeb was the very reason her family had come to Willow Creek - to hunt down and kill his clan. Fleur's loyalty to her family had always been unwavering, but now she was torn. Her heart was telling her to be with Zeeb, but she was afraid of what that would mean for the people she loved. She recalled the events of the evening, Fleur couldn't help but feel a sense of envy towards his family. They were so close and full of love for each other, something she had never experienced before. The dinner was filled with laughter, conversation, and happiness. The warm atmosphere made her feel like she was a part of the family, something she had never felt before in her own home. Even Ash, who was Zeeb's younger sister, was a ray of sunshine, making Fleur feel welcome and appreciated. The warmth of the room was contagious, making Fleur
Fleur took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts before she spoke. She could see the worry and caution in Zeeb's eyes, and it pained her to know that she had caused him such distress. She had to find a way to alleviate his concerns while also addressing the complex situation they found themselves in. "Zeeb," she began, her voice trembling with emotion, "there's something I need to tell you. Something I've kept hidden from you for far too long." Her eyes, shimmering with unshed tears, locked onto his, searching for a glimmer of understanding. Taking a deep breath, Fleur steadied herself. "I'm not like everyone else," she whispered, her voice barely audible. "I'm an Immortal, Zeeb. I've lived for hundreds of years, carrying the weight of secrets and watching the world change around me." Zeeb's eyes widened with a mix of shock and confusion. "An Immortal?" he repeated, his voice laced with disbelief. "But how...?" Fleur, her gaze unwavering, continued, "I overheard Chief Robe and Damo
Fleur and Zeeb stood at the precipice of their mission, their hearts pounding with anticipation and hope. They had gathered their allies, both mortal and immortal, in a secluded location that symbolized neutrality—a place where neither faction could claim dominance. It was here that they would attempt to broker a fragile peace, for the sake of their love and the future of their worlds. As the representatives from each side assembled, tension filled the air. Suspicion and skepticism lingered in their eyes, remnants of the deep-rooted animosity that had fueled the conflict for generations. Fleur knew that the task ahead would not be easy, but she drew strength from the unwavering support of Zeeb and their allies. Fleur's heart raced as she stood before the council of Lycan elders, alongside Zeeb, her love and beacon of hope. The room was filled with tension, the weight of their forbidden romance hanging in the air like a storm cloud ready to unleash its fury. They were surrounded by th
The days following the hard-fought battle between Fleur and Damas were filled with a deceptive tranquility in Willow Creek. The town basked in the glow of newfound hope and the promise of unity. Fleur and Zeeb reveled in the joy of their love, their hearts entwined like never before. The air was thick with whispers of their devotion, and their love story became the beacon of light in a world shrouded in darkness. Meanwhile, Fleur and Zeeb continued to navigate the complexities of their love, unaware of the dark forces conspiring against them. They spent their days exploring the beauty of Willow Creek, their laughter blending with the gentle whispers of the wind. Their hearts brimmed with hope, believing that their love could bridge the divide between their worlds. But beneath the surface of peace, trouble brewed. Ezra, the leader of the powerful Immortal clan and Fleur's betrothed, seethed with anger. He refused to accept that Damas and Esme had allowed this supposed madness to preva
