NylaTension was building with each passing moment. It wasn't a hard miss. Alpha Grant gave me a long hard look before he considered the perfect word to say to me."Who is Cole Giles? And why are you telling me this now?" Alpha Grant asked, I tried my best to stop myself from acting out of character. "He's Adaline's mate." I say as Alpha Grant furrowed his brows seeming skeptical, I didn't expect him to believe me right away but all I wanted was his reaction. That wasn't exciting at all."How long has he been Adaline's mate?" He asked, peeking interest. I look down feigning thoughts as I massaged my chin gently. "Oh, it's probably ever since they were caught naked on my bed." Once again, his expression was grim. "And why are you telling me this exactly? Didn't you swear you had nothing to do with it?" He may not give a single reaction, but Alpha Grant could not hide his anger behind his words. Immediately, I go down on my knees and begin sobbing harder. "He blackmailed me into doing
AdalineI and Maverick went to a cafe to discuss our business. We were at the top part of the cafe where only the most prominent nobles would dine as well as our most precious Luna Nyla.Servants normally stood next to their masters why their masters tried every single delicacy. I should know, I've watched Nyla and her group barely touch their food and not let me eat just to spite me, even though I was starving.Viscount Maverick has other plans, he had Theodore sit downstairs and wait, away from our conversation, what he had to discuss was important obviously but to the point he only wanted us alone says alot. We weren't the only one upstairs, a couple who were loving up sat three seats away from us."I apologize for having your knight sit downstairs, he works for Grant and I really can't risk anything, I commend you for not spilling anything to him when you read the letter." I nodded in response, I didn't really know how to feel about that. "Why is Cole being tried?" I ask almost im
AdalineExhausted could not even begin to express how I felt at the moment. Nyla had held parties in the past and I would be pissed at her that I had to do almost all the work setting up the party with the other maids as well as cleaning up as well. No one told me it was fucking hell on earth hosting these parties.Walking from table to table to ensure everyone was happy, getting extra hands from maids to attend to some of the guests and if I could remember correctly I would always envy Nyla that at least she could eat amidst all the hosting. I haven't not even for once gotten the chance to eat, there wasn't a difference between I and Nyla's situation, I would think she was on her diet as always but actually hosting is tasking and this time the part invited all impressionable noble ladies of the kingdom, whether they've debuted or not, I even saw a few wealthy commoners attend which is strange, Nyla despises commoners.I really didn't think much about it, I just did my part co-hosting
My voice echos as Melanie immediately puts down her skirt and Daniel quickly pulls up his pants and wears his belt.They both get up sharing mortified looks. It's funny how Melanie always slut shamed me when she's fucking a man that's old enough to be her father."Adaline it's not what it looks like." Daniel the one with reason started. "She invaded our privacy Danny, she should be executed for that. You damn slut. She definitely wanted to watch us go at it." Melanie says and I swear on the goddess, I rather lick prisoners clean than engage in that bullshit."You're one to talk Melanie, you're fucking someone old enough to be your father. The dick is probably good though since you had confused me for a slut, ironic enough I caught you in the act." I watch the weight of her tongue get heavy, she didn't even continue her scrutiny, she finally shuts the fuck up for once. Is this how it feels having the upper hand? It feels so fucking good."Adaline, don't tell anyone you saw us, I beg of
WillowThe night of the trial came and i had prepared. It was immediately announced in the afternoon, same was the arrest. The entire kingdom was in shock about the whole thing. I had just finished eating and once again Theodore was nowhere to be found, Grant was resting in our bedroom and I really didn't find time to worry about him, I'll worry later.I immediately get up after I finished eating, I left the dinning hall and the moment I shut the door behind me i heard Nyla call my name."What?" I answered to her beck."Prepare to mourn tonight Adaline, save yourself the trouble and mourn Cole." She said which infuriated me. "Excuse me?" I question. "Count Maverick is dead." My eyes widened at her revelation. "Stop saying stupid things he paid a visit to the castle a few hours ago. You're wasting my time, I'm going to the court." I say as she grabbed hold of my hand."Are you deaf? I said Maverick's dead. Quit whatever you're planning and stay put, I order you as your Luna." My hand
ADALINEAs I approached the grand door of my father's study, the heavy wood seemed to groan in protest against my touch. "Ahh, your highness," a grunt echoed from the other side, causing the two guards stationed there to exchange awkward glances. Their discomfort mirrored my own, amplified by the knowledge of what awaited me beyond those doors. The air was thick with the smell of secrecy and luxury, hinting at the hidden affair happening inside. I couldn't decide which was more unsettling: the realization that my father had summoned me only to be preoccupied with his illicit affair with a palace maid, or the burden placed upon the guards, who stood as reluctant witnesses to the intimate spectacle. In their eyes, I saw a mixture of sympathy and discomfort, torn between their duty and the moral dilemma of whether to intrude upon my father's euphoria."Ahh Please, faster," the maid's voice pleaded, her tone oddly familiar, but I couldn't be bothered to identify who was servicing my fath
GRANTWhat would you have done if you knew history was about to repeat itself for the second time. You would simply not allow it and that's why I killed Adaline's mate. She may not know it but I have just saved her life but at the cost of her giving me cold shoulders.She still stayed in the same bedroom with me but she barely held a conversation and I could easily read her mind she it always repeated the same thing. She wants nothing to do with me.She will soon understand why I did it, she'll understand it was the best decision I could make at that moment, she's only feeling this way because of the mate bond, it's not like she actually loved the boy.Immediately I hear her laugh and I'm tempted to trace it baring in mind she would always ignore my lingering gaze. I caught her with an aristocrat lady, which is odd because she claimed she never accepted invitations like Nyla did. It was assuring knowing that she didn't always keep to herself as I thought. He smile on her face was so
ADALINE Hot breaths filled the atmosphere, adding to the tension I could barely hear my sense of reasoning as Grant pressed my back against the wall. His tongue immediately slides in my mouth as mine sought his for combat, our tongue swirls for dominance and a moan escapes from my lips. Amidst the kiss I fell the taste of something metallic and slightly bitter, I recognize the taste of blood and began panicking from where it's coming from, I trace with my tongue to discover Grant's fangs piercing the corners of my mouth. I try pulling away from the kiss but his tongue quickly massages the bloody part where the his fangs pitched and quickly licks it clean. In the process the side of my tongue was immediately healed. He pulls away from the kiss, lists me up and tosses me on the bed."Who are you?" I gasped riding my ass to the edge of the bed. He only smirks, it was even entirely different the way Grant would do it. "I'm Grant's wolf, Hazem." He introduced, my eyes widened in awe. Th
