LILITH’S POVThe hands wrapped around me pulls me closer and pressing my lower half against his already hard and throbbing member.The feel of his cock throbbing against my tummy does something to my sense of logic, and I fight desperately to appear sane.I gasp against my will, feeling the wetness pooling between my thighs instantly. My body responds to him like a horny dog.“I can’t believe you’re hard after everything that just happened.”“And yet you’re responding to me as well. You’re not as different from me as you think.” He jokes even though that’s not funny in the least bit.I ignore the statement and fight the need forming within me until he crouches to my level, trailing kisses down my neck and turning me on instantly.My wolf howls like an unhinged thirsty beast that craves satiation just from his touch, and I lean even closer to the feel of his lips, grabbing onto the back of his head.He kisses down to my chest, stopping at the low neck of my shirt that prevents him from
LILITH’S POV:“What do you actually want?”“You gone.” She responds without wasting a second more.Her deviously wicked and pissed off eyes stare at me firmly with so much intensity.The determination burning in her eyes flare wildly as though they could burn a whole city. I don’t need to be told that she’d really do anything to get rid of me again.The fact that she had pushed me into a well was only just the beginning of her threats against my life and as long as I stay here, they will never stop.“That’s not happening.” I state firmly.“There’s no stopping this then.” She refers to the rivalry now burning between us.I find it stupid to participate in this childish feud over a man who wouldn’t bat an eyelash over having either of us murdered, but from her unwavering personality, there’s no backing down now.“I’m going to make you regret ever crossing me. I’ve said this before but this time, I mean it.” She takes menacing steps closer to me to enunciate her threat.I take a step bac
LILITH’S POV:The Alpha’s mansion falls into a state of peace in the few coming days.Sure enough, I haven’t seen Yvonne while she spends her days diligently taking her punishment from Kain as a way to appease his anger.Even then, it feels as though there’s been a sudden shift in power. The maids who stared at me with discontent before don’t dare look at me for longer than a few seconds, before bowing in greetings with respect.Respect that I wasn’t given before.I guess the whole fiasco with Kain putting even Yvonne in her place for threatening my life made it clear that even someone like her isn’t fully immune.In a way, it’s made everything else become boring and dull. The usual excitement from hateful eyes and a few people willingly getting on your bad side is gone.And now, I’m bored.As if reading the silent cues I send into the universe, the door to the dining hall flies open and Ariel dashes in.I’m forced to look away from my plate and at her.While I’ve been spending most
LILITH’S POV:“How does this look?” Ariel asks, raising up a piece of red band styled beautifully with multi-colored gems up to her neck.It matches her flushed skin tone perfectly.“It’s beautiful, don’t you think, Ivan?” I ask, elbowing him in the gut.He groans, biting on his lower lip so as not to cause a scene. He takes a moment to compose himself again before he stands erect with a smile.“It suits you.”Ariel turns into a red tomato instantly, bowing her head down and unable to look him in the eye again.“I’ll be back.” She says, handing me the red thread and running off in the other direction, probably to calm herself.She’s so cute.“What is the meaning of this?” Ivan leans down to my level, harshly whispering to me. “You’re lucky you’re a woman. I wouldn’t hesitate extending the same courtesy as you’ve shown me.”“Making an excuse to hide the fact that you can’t beat me in a fight isn’t attractive, Ivan.” I comment harshly, going through the lines of red bands.Most are pret
KAIN’S POV:The chattering and laughter echoing from behind my door distracts me from my train of thoughts and the very important work in front of me, sending me into a momentary frenzy.With a throbbing head from hours of work without taking a break, I stand from behind my desk, walking up front.It’s a known fact that I like my hallways noise free, much more the hallway leading to my office. The audacity of the person behind it fuels my anger and I’m ready to throw them in some cell to spend the rest of their days until they’re forgotten — that is until I push the doors open and I’m caught off guard.Lilith stands on the other side with the other girl I rarely see; I’ve forgotten that one’s name. Beside the both of them is my Beta, IvanShe laughs fondly at something he might have said that she finds hilarious, letting out such a glorious sound I’ve never heard her make in front of me.Something in my chest constricts and even that annoys me, that and the look in her eyes when he’s
LILITH’S POV:“Leave.”Just like that, Kain’s entire countenance changes.One minute, he’s being the annoying prick that he is. The next, he seems too pissed to look me in the eye while kicking me out.I feel offended, or rather, something deeper than that relating more to hurt.A smaller and suppressed part of me wants to know what is going on. Curious about if he’s okay or not, seeing as his work has been cut out for him.But there’s no need to ask.I turn and leave as commanded, stepping out of his office once I’m on the other side and close the door behind me. I let out a sigh of relief once I rest my back against the door.Even in that heated moment where he had threatened to hurt me as a joke, the boiling heat between us had been too intense. It’s like my body confuses fear with desire around him and suddenly, I’m thinking of him holding me by the throat and choking me while I’m high on cloud 9.I snap myself out of my reverie, slapping my cheeks in the process, so my sanity ca
LILITH’S POV:The street is packed with more than the usual amount of people who are more lively than ever with a few new stands erected specifically for the musical.New stands, with more than enough snacks and food to eat, are erected around, while everything goes down, and a few games to play as well.Now that the day is almost over, it’s as though the entire streets have come to life.It almost as though a carnival has come into town for the day.I myself wait patiently while Ivan is at work, carefully holding the stick made of hard paper as he rolls the cotton candy until it’s a perfect large ball.I can already feel my mouth watering.“Here you go.” He hands me my cotton candy and I grab it from his hands, taking a bite and moan from the deliciousness.Initially, I had thought coming out for the festival today would have been a burst, seeing as after putting Ivan and Ariel together I’d be alone, but now I don’t think so.Only issue is no one will sell anything to me unless I’m w
LILITH’S POV:Our hands fall away from the other, seeing as the dance style requires both partners to move together but never touch.We have a brief stare down, a silent wish; may the best man win, whispers into the air between us and then I begin.I swirl around, holding my dress with one hand and the other hand up while swaying my hips and tapping my feet against the hard earth, putting out my best almost instantly.Kain moves as well, dancing more expertly than I’d imagine. His feet work is almost perfect as his taps, with the hastened beat against the floor.We follow each other, mirroring the other's moves, at some point raising our palms up and close to the other as though we want to hold hands, but keeping a little gap between them.Even without touching his skin, I can feel the heat emanating from him. Heat that only seems to grow the faster we dance and move.I swirl around faster as the beat picks, loving the adrenaline rush pulsing in my veins. I can hear Kain chuckle from
