Daciana's pov.I woke up with a yawn, trying to stretch my limbs when I felt myself against a hard rock body! My body tensed up immediately, and my heart rate automatically skyrocketed. My eyes flew open and I realized that I had somehow crawled into the Alpha's lap! He was fast asleep, breathing heavily through his nose, his mouth slightly opened and his arms wrapped tightly around me. I wondered if anyone had ever seen him in this state of vulnerability before, as he is known for his cold and stoic nature. His hair tickled my face and I couldn't help but smile, despite being in a very embarrassing situation. I tried to wriggle out of his embrace, but he only tightened his hold on me and buried his head further between my neck and shoulder. He mumbled something incoherent and burrowed himself deeper into my neck.I stayed still for a moment, holding my breath to not startle him.His chest rose up and down steadily against me and every muscle in his chest flexed every time he i

Daciana’s pov.“No!” I yelled out, as I found myself back in the clutches of Alpha Eden.“What do you want?!” I asked in fear, as his grip tighten around my arm, while he was pulling me across the floors of our mansion towards his bedroom he never let me stay in while we were still married. I tried to pull out of the grasp, but it didn’t take him long before we reached his bed chamber. He threw me roughly onto the mattress of the king-sized bed, where I curled up into a ball with trembling shoulders trying to shield myself from what I could only guess was coming.“Get up!” He shouted, and when I looked up at him with tears streaming down my cheeks, ‘What is wrong with you?!” he screamed. “You are supposed to be perfect, why can’t you follow instructions?!” he cried. I flinched back, trying desperately not to look into his eyes. They were full of rage, frustration, and disgust. He grabbed his whip, which had been lying next to the bed, and lashed the lash against the mattress, making me

Daciana’s povMy vision blurred with tears as I rushed back to my room.I shut my door, and fell on my bed, sobbing into it. The pain was a lot more than physical pain. My heart ached. I should have gotten used to not being accepted due to my former marriage, but I still, my heart still clenched painfully at the fact that my mate's mother didn't want me and it seemed like my mate was not so concerned about it.I closed my eyes praying for sleep to take over, hoping that my nightmares don't return back this time.With time, I drifted off.I found myself in a beautiful beach, but no one else around except me. The sun shone brightly against my skin and I felt the warm breeze blowing around us. It was quite pleasant. I smiled as I felt his arms wrap around me, letting me lean back on his hard well sculptured chest, feeling him press kisses all over my face, neck, shoulders... everywhere. When he leaned down kissing me passionately in my mouth, I wrapped my hands around his waist, pullin

Daciana’s povI ignored the pointed glares I got from both mother and daughter, as I made my way into the dining room with Alpha Arnou.I was more than grateful for the fact that it was just us with no other party attending dinner today.I gave them both a smile, ignoring their more intense glares, getting hold of myself so as to not bust out laughing, as I had imagined two tiny devil horns on their heads and fumes puffing out their ears and nostrils in a funny way, as I took my seat right beside the Alpha, with his mother directly before me and his sister, after her. The little devils were still growling at me.Not long after, the doors from the kitchen opened up, revealing the maids who carried with them food trays of various dishes.They placed down the plates one by one, all without much fanfare, and I could already feel my stomach rumbling, anticipating all of the tasty smells. “I was about to dig in, when the entrance door flew open, revealing an over-excited Lilian who was bar

Daciana's povIt's been over a month since I got here, and so far, so good, things had been going smoothly enough, well asides from the snide remarks and reactions I got from my mother-in-law and sister-in-law, it still was very bearable, as each of us tried avoiding each other's part. Lillian had still been a maniac, coming around even when she wasn't needed by the Alpha, and I wondered when it'll get to her thick head that she wasn't wanted and give up already.As for the alpha, things had been going more smoothly with us and even though I knew it was only due to his duties as an alpha that he did tolerate me, it was extremely bearable and way better than when I was mates with Eden.The moon goddess had given me a chance for happiness and I was never going to sabotage it.I sluggishly got off my bed, to prepare for the training which the alpha had me in, just for basic fighting skills, in other that I can at least be able to defend myself when the need arises.I really didn't know
