LOGIN5 months later.
Kian's eyes are fixed on me as I concentrate on making the perfect torte. I feel heat rising in my face.
"Stop looking at me. You're making me nervous," I mutter without meeting his gaze.
"I love looking at you. You're beautiful," he says. I sigh and, after tasting the torte, realize it's not as good as Mom's. In frustration, I slam my hand down onto the cake.
Kian wraps an arm around my waist and kisses me gently. I turn to face him, wrapping
NaraI sharply look at Adrian, but he avoids my gaze."What do you mean? Who will bring chaos?" I ask, my voice is calm, but it is all but"Wilson," he says. Who is that, and why am I just hearing about him?"Adalwolf's right-hand man. His beta," he says. Wilson. Beta? What the heck? I didn't even know my father had a beta, he died during the first attack, serving him." I thought his beta died!""Well... He's alive. Wilson betrayed his Alpha by working with the pack's council in hopes they'll make him Alpha, but it didn't work, and Adalwolf found out after he awoke from his coma, and was on a hunt to kill him," he explains."So, he is coming back..." I whisper, my mind swirling. Adrian looks distant; emotion and guilt are on his face. I grab his arm, so he's facing me."What happened?" I ask sternly."I was twenty years old, and eager to prove to Adalwolf that I'm capable and loyal, so I offered to fin
Adrian's eyes are completely dark. He's striding towards me like he owns the manor, so casually. His wolf has completely taken over. "You look gorgeous, princess," he says when he's within arm's reach. "Why are you here? In my house?" I demand, furious. I still can't believe he just walked in like this!"I came to pick you. We have a date, remember?" he smirks, and I groan, dumbfounded. This can't be happening. He leans in and kisses my cheek, and my stupid heart skips a bit, skin feeling on fire. I swear this guy did something to me. That's why I'm so reactive to him. "I want to speak to Adrian, now," I command, and he frowns, almost offended. "Why? We are one," he says innocently. The wolf takes a step back and looks at me in awe. "You are so stunning. I see why my human thinks about you a lot," he muses, with a stupid smile on his lips. I squint my eyes. This can't be happening!My wolf is going crazy. She wants to come out and scream at him, maybe even punch him but I hold he
The days Mom, Mya, and Rhys are with me were the happiest days for me. For a moment, the fights within the factions, and the work isn't my priority. I'm spending time with my son. The only thing that would have made it better was Kian coming. I'm feeling free, so carefree. I tell Mya everything that has been happening, but I skip the weird feelings I have for Adrian because she sometimes judges and would tell her mate, who will no doubt tell Kian. Mom has been spending more time with Sonny, and Sonny is like a baby when she's here. My mom and I are in the salon, late at night, after the long day we all had today. My head is on her lap while she massages my scalp gently as she tells me about the royal pack. "Mama, do you know Adrian Calloway?" I ask suddenly. She pauses for a moment, then resumes her massage. "Yes. I knew his parents. Good people, only wanted what was best for the pack. They enjoyed partying and hosting them. They spoke against y
Nara Ciera is sheepish and tense as we shop. She's preparing for her first date with Mason since she left her mate, who was a complete jerk. Bradley went to Kian's pack, making a scene and begging Kian to release Ciera to him, claiming he was sorry for his past actions. However, he was kicked out. Our association is hanging by a thread. The members of the Lake Moon Pack stand by Ciera and fully support her after they heard how he treated her. "You good?" I ask as I glance at her while we sift through the racks of clothes that the sales associates have shown us. "I'm nervous. I'm going on a date with the most wonderful man I left for my jerk of a mate, and I'm pregnant," she sneers with a laugh, but there’s no humor in her voice. She gently touches her belly. She’s five months along now. "Mason loves you and wants you back. I doubt he cares that you are carrying another man's child," I say gently. "It’s time for you to move on." "I feel guilty. I shouldn
Nara"Hello, stalker," a voice says, from upstairs. I turn and see Adrian walking down the stairs. His hair is disheveled, and his pink lips are slightly ajar, making them alluring. He's a good-looking man, I think, sucking in a breath through my lungs."Done gawking, little princess?" he smirks, standing too close to me and letting his scent envelop me. The two wolves at the bar burst out, and I growl at them."What do you want?" Adrian asks, his gaze runs over me, and stops on my cleavage. I'm wearing a sharp, tailored black blazer, a silk blouse with the top buttons left undone, and a black short skirt. It's hot today. I feel heat crawl up my neck and into my face. Adrian smells of strong whiskey, mixed with mint. "You didn't come all this way just to stare, or would you?" he knits his eyebrow in mock surprise.I grab the folder I put on the table and shove it in his chest. He frowns, flipping over the pages. His gaze hardens, and then he glowers
I take him in from head to toe. He's a handsome man indeed, and can't be more than thirty. He's wearing a black suit."You're stalking me now, little princess?" he whispers, leaning close to my face, and it suddenly feels hot."Don't call me little princess. And this is a public place," I retort, a growl slipping my mouth."This is my club. I own most of the clubs in the city, but this one is my favorite," he says, and I blink. Ayana didn't mention. He smirks, seeing my confusion."Considering how you like being in my space, I'm surprised you actually didn't know.""I don't like being in your space!" I yelled and marched out. I'm so furious. I join my companions and try to have a good time, but I can still feel his eyes watching me!I discreetly go upstairs on the roof, and I feel relief at the air that hits my skin. The city is beautiful, and the rogues are not too far from here. I close my eyes, enjoying the quiet when
Nara Today is Friday, and we finish school around five o'clock because our math teacher assigned us extra work. Mya and I are the last ones to leave class because I couldn't solve 'basic' calculus. There is nothing basic about calculus. It's challenging for me. In fact, math is hard for me. "Mr. Ca
Nara's Pov I can't stop looking at them. The woman is pretty, with silky black hair cascading down her back, smooth, flawless skin, and dark brown eyes. They look like the perfect couple standing side by side. The woman can't hide her thrill, however, Kian doesn't look too pleased. His gaze flicke
Nara I've been crying all day, and I'm so damn tired of it. It is exhausting and has taken a toll on my physical strength. I've been crying while I do chores, while I cook. On top of it, in the early afternoon, I felt excruciating pain in my chest, as if someone was stabbing me. My wolf told me we
Nara's pov "I want you," he murmurs against my skin, kissing my collarbone down to my chest. His teeth scrape softly against my skin. It feels so good, I close my eyes, enjoying the sensation."Do you want me?" I don't think twice when I nod and spread my legs. "You're so perfect, my butterfly,"
