CRYSTALWhy… Why didn't it work?It's supposed to work. That's how rejection works. I read the books so long ago- history couldn't have changed now, could it?His hand is warm on my cheek and it's heating my body up. When I notice him again, his face is already so close with his eyes on my lips and it's easy to tell what he's thinking."You can't run from me," he leans even further and I slam my hand on his chest, trying to push him off but he's more steel than man as he doesn't budge."Let me go," I whisper and tears roll down my cheek. I'm terrified, creeped out and backed up against a wall here. I want nothing to do with him yet it feels like my strong will is nothing when it's up against fate."I don't want this," I whisper. "Please let me go-"But his response is his scent becoming stronger, making my knees quiver as I drown in the ecstatic feeling that fuels my wolf and plunges me into a sexual feeling that my cries and pleas now turn into something else.I'm no longer begging t

CRYSTALA threat as strong as that didn't leave my head for the whole day but when Simone and Mike called, telling me the good news, I sobered up for a while and put on a smile at their place.It's a full house by the time I get there. I didn’t expect the party to be this big and on such short notice too. I mean they only just found out, how come their In-laws are everywhere."Crystal!" Simone calls and hurries to me, her brown dreadlocks is flowing in the afternoon wind and her white jumpsuit only makes her look very pretty.She pulls me into a hug and I can see her excitement rolling down her back, "I'm so glad you could make it.""Congratulations, Simone. I'm so happy for you!" I hugged her back. The news of her baby is one she's been expecting for quite a long time now."Thank you. You had to see how Mike froze up when the doctor told us," she throws her head back and laughs. "It was iconic! Goddamn! I wish I had that on camera!"I can only imagine. I know they would make good pare

SILVER-We should go back there. Astro says gently and I stare hard at the glass, building up her image in my head.-I don't feel comfortable leaving her there.Of course you don't. I couldn't agree more.-You think he's bad news too, right?Yes, yes.-No one should know how good our mate moans and how sweet she tastes.…I like that we agree on that.I'm picking up my glass of wine with a smile, thinking how my beast and I are one and the same."Penny for your thoughts, dear?" my mother asks, drawing my attention back on the table. "What is it?" her curiosity grows stronger and I know she's not dropping it till she gets an earful."Thinking about the wedding," I shrug."Ouh!" she's smiling and sitting up straight, wiping her mouth with a napkin. "I never thought I'd see the day you'll bring up a wedding first."I turn to her, "Even after you set me up for this?"She rolls her eyes, "Don’t be dramatic, my love. I foresaw your stubbornness and I saved you from ending up alone by thirty

CRYSTALMy hands trembled with the phone in my ear as every part of me was expecting his reply.The background is quiet and it keeps me on my toes as I listen for any sound-John sighs and calmly says, "Crystal, why are you asking me this? We literally got home together and you saw your sister off. I'm waiting for you over here. Can you please, hurry back?"His words fill me with relief, more than I ever knew. I look at Silver whose face doesn't change from the straight one with his tightly shut lips."Okay, I'll be home soon. I love you," I hang up, tucking the phone back in my pocket with a calming heart. This time when I glare at Silver, I do it with my full chest."Don't ever compare my husband to a dog, ever again!" I warn. "He is nothing like you-"But his smirk shuts me up. Even after I just proved John's innocence, he's smirking like he won.Unless his plan was to draw the reaction out of me. Which woman would feel so relieved that their husband was at home by this time of the

SILVERWhy won't she give in? Why is she still hanging onto him even after the solid proof of his infidelity?She knows, has always known yet she chose to act the fool like that will change him.Her eyes are closed as she kisses me back, rocking her hips back and forth over my hard crotch. Her arms are going round my neck, pressing me even closer.She tastes better than she smells. Her lips are warm and quivering softly, a little shudder escapes from her lips and my hand on her loosens.I let her take the load, enjoying how she's so into it, wanting to sink into me like it's where she belongs. She can be in denial all she wants but I know she craves me just as much as I crave her.How can I let you go when I taste the silent plea in your kiss? "Your tears only say one thing to me and your eyes beg me to not let you go," I mumble into her lips as she shivers, pushing her face into mine with her eyes closed."Look at me, Crystal," she shakes her head, tears rolling down her cheek. "Ope
