NOAH. "Jealous much?" Kasha teased as we sauntered to his residence. Kasha had been my best friend since I was a child. He usually love to annoy me and would jump of joy if I gave him the reaction he wanted. So this time, I chose to ignore his comment. "How is the current situation?" "You are no fun." He said and punched me on the back, then added seriously, "You've gone for too long, Noah. It has been nineteen years since Nash got the throne. Smaller pack lives in misery as their fund and ratio for food often come late. The tax rate is also crazy. So only my pack and the two other big packs flourished in the past years." Kasha pushed the door to his enormous house, and she was greeted by a red-haired woman, which I was sure Kasha had just fucked a while ago. "Nineteen years. It's been that long, huh." I muttered and peeked at the woman who threw a playful wink at Kasha, asking to be eaten right there and then. "Nineteen years, and your taste haven't changed." It was my turn to m
VIOLETTE. "What are you doing?" I whispered to him when I noticed the collective gasp from the spectators. I also peered to see the expression of the king. The king's face appeared shocked beyond words, but he managed to mask it as soon as it appeared. "I told you to lower your eyes, Violette!" Upon hearing his harsh tone, I immediately dropped my head far lower until my chin almost touched my suprasternal notch. Painful silence fell upon us; none dared to open their mouth. I screamed inwardly for someone to man up and voice their mind. But seconds passed into a minute, and we were still trapped in the stillness. Using my elbow, I nudged at Noah, forcing him to speak or move, and I noticed from my peripheral view that his jaw hardened as he looked straight at the king. "Noah." The king finally spoke, making everyone, including me, finally could breathe out. "Fancy seeing you here to celebrate the anniversary of my coronation day. Are you done grieving?" I didn't know which par
NOAH.When the door was finally closed, Violette yanked her hand free. She glared at me with intense hatred in her eyes. Lifting my hands up, I said, "Calm down.""Calm down, you said. Calm down! Hahahah." Violette's body trembled tremendously out of rage. "How dare you ask me to calm down after betraying my trust like that?!" She prowled at me without hesitancy and kept pointing at my chest with her index finger. I would have laughed at how she tried to intimidate me if this weren't a serious situation. But, right now, she was close to exploding. "You are mistaken. I am not—""Which part of it did I mistake? The part where you said I am your slave or the one where you said you'd toss me to your brother? Tell me, which part, Noah?!" Violette's chest moved up and down frantically, and I could her heart thumping wildly.'She is upset because you called her slave.' my wolf told me. Of course, she would be. But I couldn't admit to Nash that Violette was my mate. It would put her in da
VIOLETTE.He kissed me. He kissed me.My brain froze as my pupils grew larger when Noah moved his lips against mine. Slowly licking every inch of my lips as if he wanted to savor the taste. "Hmmphm." I tried to heft my hands, pushing him away from me. However, he engulfed me in his arms instead of letting me go. Caging me in between his hard body. I didn't know how we went from screaming at each other to this situation. Everything moved so fast that I didn't have enough time to comprehend. So, I tried to break free again. However, the more I attempted to flee, the more aggressive he became. The gentle kiss suddenly became heated as he bit my lower lips."Argh!" I yelped in surprise, and then I felt something; soft and sticky invade my mouth. When I sensed it stroked my tongue tenderly and softly, I clenched and unclenched my fist as a strange sensation filled my belly. As if what he didn't wasn't enough, I noticed he grew wilder and impatient. His tongue kept on grazing mine as i
NOAH. Even until I got my release, I still couldn’t erase Violette’s face and moan from my mind. The minutes I spent instructing and listening to her pleasure herself were both heaven and hell. I loved hearing her sensual voice, and I could perfectly picture her in my head while she pumped her finger in and out of herself. The potent scent of her arousal, mixed with her sweet taste, drove me mad. I wanted nothing more than to push myself inside her, feeling as her pussy swallowed my hard cock. It took all of my self-control not to turn back and take her. But when she came and screamed my name. I lost. I couldn’t be in the same room as her. So, I acted like a gentleman and went out to the next room and gave myself pleasure while imagining she was sucking my cock enthusiastically. Honestly, I couldn’t believe we moved this fast. The kiss was wrong on my part. I did it out of desperation, and I wasn’t even hoping for Violette to kiss me back. I had intended to let go of her when I was
VIOLETTE. “And the one beside you is Lady Flora Barlow. She is the mate I choose for you.”My head instantly rose. I was confused beyond words. I always thought that Lycan only mated to their fated ones and that they had no say in that matter. But Nash ultimately proved that I was wrong. What would happen to me if Noah were to be mated with someone else? Would he abandon me or keep me as his mistress and follow Nash’s words? Maybe I’d be happy if he abandoned me because I might be able to escape without a scratch. However, he was likely to choose the second option since he would gain both ways. Keeping me to his side and getting on Nash’s good grace.None dared to open their mouth afterward, and I held my breath, waiting for Noah to say something.“With all due respect, My King. I shall reject your good intention. For now, I have no plan to take a mate.”“Why? Are you waiting for your fated mate?” I sensed hostility in Nash’s tone, making me question why he was against Noah finding
NOAH."Sorry.""This isn't right. I am the slave here, so as a master, you shouldn't apologize to me.""You know that I never saw you as one. You are my mate, not my slave."My eyes fell to her swollen cheeks, and rage swirled in my chest again. Had I had a position in the court, I would have killed Flora Barlow without a second thought. I'd enjoyed tearing her flesh apart and hanging her head in the courtroom to show that everyone who disrespects Violette would meet the same end.Sadly, I had strong physical strength but not so much in politics."Lady Barlow will be your mate. The king chose her for you." She replied, still averting my gaze.Lifting her chin, I said, "Look at me. Do I look in need of another mate? No. You are enough, I am sorry for letting her hurt you, and I am sorry that I can't publicly defend you in front of my family. It's me who lacked the power but worry not my dear; I'll give them tenfold pains and embarrassment. It's a promise."Her violet eyes watered, and
VIOLETTE. A week passed on a whim. During that time, I tried so hard to adjust to my current situation that I was trapped in the lycan’s land until an undetermined time, which was nearly close to forever to me. My conversation with Noah last week helped me navigate myself better. Now I knew better who I should avoid and be friends with. Sadly, only a few people I could try to get close to. The enemies, however, were so many that I couldn’t remember their names. The list of names that I made sure to remember was Nash, Herta, Rendall, Olivia, and Flora. I hadn’t met with all of them, but I wasn’t sure about Olivia being an enemy. She seemed like a sweet type that, unfortunately, got into the wrong crowds. But, just to ensure my safety, I ended up avoiding all of them like the plague. I also learned about this land, which by the way, was The Kingdom of Rasha; unlike in human land where each territory was called a town or village, in this place, each territory was claimed by packs. And
