||Claire||The image of him made juices soak in my pants and I prayed to the goddess that Clayton would not smell my arousal in the air.But my prayers did not reach the mood goddess in time as Clay leaned over and placed his lips next to my ears before he murmured.“I can smell you, little gem.” he brushed his lips against my ear and a shiver ran through me. I gasped and shoved him away from me as my face turned red and goosebumps appeared all over my skin.Clayton roared with laughter before pulling me into his chest and embracing me tightly.“It's alright, little gem. Don't feel embarrassed. You have no idea how happy it makes me to see how affected I make you and how easily your body responds to my words and touch. This little body of yours is mine to touch. Mine to kiss and mine to fuck until you can’t walk straight.” he growled lowly with so much possessiveness in his voice and I could feel his wolf's deep baritone mixed with his.I almost came undone at the tone of their voice

||Claire||Clayton was true to his words. He visited the shop and my apartment every single day and the week fled in a blur. An exhausting blissful blur. From the moment I woke up to the moment my head hit my pillow. The days were filled with baking and serving all the time. And my evenings were spent with Calvin; catching up on his day at dinner and reading his favorite kids' book to him before bed.Also, Clayton was coming by to enjoy our company. We have begun to understand each other more and the level of understanding I had with him in the past few days was more than I had with Alan.My mom however, texted and called occasionally during the week. She couldn't shut up about Clayton. She kept asking questions about my mate and to shut her up, I told her about our upcoming date.Today was Friday and also our date night. Vivian and I drove back to our apartment and strolled into the room where the nanny was with the kids.Vivi and Trixie showered while I waited in the living room wi

||Claire||I was up by 5 in the morning, I changed into workout clothes and packed a few changing clothes for Calvin and me before I made my way towards the door with Calvin sleeping heavily in my arms. I was meeting up with Clayton for an early morning run since we wanted my wolf and his Lycan to spend some quality time together.“ I can’t believe I let you talk me into this.“ Bredon said as he walked towards me and carried Calvin from my chest.“Good morning to you too, Bredon,“ I rolled my eyes. “It really didn’t take much to convince you into this. Suck it up!“‘ I smiled to myself thinking about all the tricks I used on Bredon, to get him to agree to be my chauffeur last night.So yesterday, after Clayton saw me to my door, he called for a chat after he arrived home and we discussed the time for the run and means of transportation.He had few businesses to attend to at the borders at dawn but he still wanted to forgo it and drive over to pick Calvin and I. But I couldn’t be a hi

||Claire||“ Let's go in. Our meeting has been long overdue.“Clayton exhaled hearing my reply.He visibly relaxed and nodded. Then he squeezed my hand in his but I could tell he wasn’t so sure about it. But then, he opened the door to his office with his left available hand.A drop-dead gorgeous, middle-aged woman of about 5’6 rushed towards us she was in a perfectly pressed green dress and a pair of stilettos.Her hair was auburn and her eyes were electric blue.Her face was heart-shaped and even at her age, I could see her gorgeous curvature and stunning long legs.Her beauty was incomparable. Her title as the queen of werewolves and Lycans suits her. She is exactly what I envisioned our queen to be.I almost stared myself down. I was nothing like her. She was a perfectionist and I was quite the opposite.She swayed her body gracefully striding towards us.“ Clayton, dear,” she reached out to my mate and took his large form into a hug.“What are you doing here mum?” Clay muttered i

||Claire||I trembled with my eyes downcasted.Seriously, I had no idea Clayton’s pack was this many. I just thought a few people would be present but all these sets of eyes made me extremely uncomfortable. “I didn't think your pack was that many.”“Our pack, little gem. You are not a guest in the pack. You are the Luna. The soon to be queen and everyone in the pack have the right to meet you. That is the rule so please bear with this just for tonight and I promise to be by your side the entire time. We can also get out of here after the introduction.” he added.“Your face looks red, little gem. Breathe, love. Breathe for me.” Clayton gently capped my cheeks and turned me to him so we were gazing into each other's eyes, and he ordered me to breathe.I inhaled deeply and exhaled.“Are you calm enough?” he asked and I nodded, breathing in and out.“Good. Now let's meet the pack. You can do this.”“Yes, I'm ready,” I muttered.“That's my girl,” he grinned at my reply, tightened his arms
