Alonso's POV
It took me a couple of seconds to get back to normal time again. I froze up as soon as she pulled me in for a kiss. The first second, I thought I was dreaming. The second second, I was processing. And by the third second, I was already kissing Venus back.My left hand is on her waist, and my right hand at the back of her head pulling her impossibly closer to me.And for a minute, I don't care where we are standing. I don't care who might see us. I don't care if everyone from the pack is staring right at us. But this moment, where Venus is kissing me.. that is all I need.Sadly, she pulls away from the kiss but her eyes are still closed. She takes another moment before opening her eyes. Her brown eyes are still the prettiest eyes I have ever seen. And the more I stare at her eyes, the more I am falling in love with the color brown in general."I didn't know it was a life debt," Venus whispers and how she got to know, I have no idea. But at least she got to know about it. I was dying to grab an opportunity to tell her about it."You thought I would marry someone else even after knowing that you are my mate?" I ask Venus, but the way she stares at the ground gives it away. She really thought that!I placed my left hand on her cheek this time, which made her look at me. Her features are softening as I stroke my thumb against her cheek. The mate bond. Thank fucking Mate Bond."I would never, in my right mind would put you aside for someone else. Not even for my sake. But for my kingdom, maybe. I am the last living Royal," I tell her even though I feel a burning sensation in my throat as I tell her every word of it."I realized it a bit late," Venus says but her eyes say something else."And I am not ready to let this go, Alonso. Moon Goddess might have paired us up for a reason.! I believe she doesn't make mistakes. So there must be a loophole somewhere," Venus says again.And right now, nothing in the world can make me smile wider than I am smiling at this moment!"Absolutely," I whisper because that's what I was thinking for a while now. Why would Moon Goddess pair me and Venus if a life debt was the plan all along?"Let's keep this mate bond a secret. I don't think I could trust Edna either," Venus says, and this time she is sure that she knows something that I don't.And honestly, I wonder if Edna has the capacity to do something heroic even. This morning I found her breaking sweat while trying to hold two plates in her two hands. She is way too soft and feminine for my liking especially, forget everyone else's liking.Venus bites her lip for a moment before looking around. I understand what she is about to say or do, but I follow her lead anyways. She starts walking towards the pack and I silently follow her lead again. We don't hold hands, afraid it would give away things that we can't say out loud at the moment.I kept this secret within me for five years. And then Venus and I both had to keep this between us for a day because we wanted to reveal to everyone in a grand way. Now that I recall it, I wonder why we even did that.And now, we both are about to keep this mate bond thing a secret for Goddess knows when because we are yet to find a loophole that could save my life and lets us reveal our mate bond to everyone. I only wish Moon Goddess helps us in this.The scent of Venus's mom is a faint linger, that says that she is not at home. Or maybe Venus already knew about that. She opened the door and we both walked in. No one paid any attention because Venus and I had been best friends all our lives. And we often lived and spent time in the same houses. Either hers or mine. Good thing is Edna didn't see this. She might be soft but she also comes off as a girl who would make fuss publicly.As soon as Venus locked the door, I pushed her back against the door and claimed her lips again. I could live my entire life just kissing her. I don't mind being starved with food or sleep. Her kisses can keep me alive. I absolutely don't fucking mind!Venus moans in a whisper, her fingers burying in my hair. My hands roam at her sides and I am still afraid to touch her in any other way. Because at the back of my mind, I am still waiting for her consent even though she is my mate."Alonso," Venus whispers as she pulls away from the kiss. But her lips are less than an inch away from mine. I am already craving for a kiss again."I don't mind even if you touch me," she whispers, with her brown eyes boring into mine before glancing at my lips again. I know what she is saying but-"Stop thinking too much and just touch me. Now," Venus whispers again and I don't think about it for another second.My left hand slips under her t-shirt, touching her bare skin. She is warm. And I feel the sparks dancing at my fingertips. Now I am going to crave this touch forever.I let my hand roam a little more until I reached the edge of her breast that got her sucked in a breath. Her fingers in my hair tighten a little as she closes her eyes for a moment.I know what is going to happen next, and I also know that we both are not going to regret it.A full spicy chapter ahead :) hope you like it.
Venus's POVMy entire body feels so ignited and Alonso didn't even do anything yet. He just touched my bare skin and I felt so many emotions that I had never felt before. But before he does anything more, he gently cups my ass and taps twice. I took the hint and jumped up. Alonso caught me and I wrapped my legs around his torso. He walks towards my room. And for once, I feel glad that we have known each other since we were kids. He doesn't need me to tell where to go and what to do. "Other than consent even though you are his mate?" Dawn giggles in the back of my head. Alonso is a gentleman that way, I guess. To wait until I gave him my consent to proceed. We did go intimate here and there but never the sex level intimate. So this is killing me now. Knowing that I will be having sex with Alonso Naylor in a few minutes. He opens the door by himself with my back facing the room, and my face buried at the nape of his neck. His scent of musk and citrus is literally making me and my wo
Alonso's POV I am mentally still at Venus's place. My tongue has the lingering taste of her, when I sucked my fingers as soon as she hit her orgasm all over my hand. I still cannot get the picture out. The way her body reacted to my touch, the way she moaned my name, the way she screamed during her release, the way she fell asleep just minutes after all of that. My father clears his throat, bringing me back to the harsh reality. I just gave him a stern look. It's been a while since I smiled at him. I don't know if I am more angry at him or more disappointed. I guess both. My father tilts his head towards Edna who is also at the dining table, chewing her potatoes in a soft manner. With every bite she is taking, her left hand goes in front of her mouth muting whatever faint chew noises that somehow got away. Venus wouldn't have cared about it if she had a plate of potatoes before her. She loves potatoes and often ate mine and Dorian's too, when we were kids. "How was your day, Edna
Venus's POVI stare at Edna, not even attempting to look guilty. For hell I care, I will rip everyone's throats who ask me to stay away from my mate. "Oh My God," Edna's hands are now not cupping her mouth anymore. Her right hand is an inch away from her face and her left hand is on her heart. How is she doing everything so elegantly.? Was she groomed to be this way since the beginning?? Because even though she is an Alpha's daughter, she was supposed to be trained. Especially since she has a twin brother. When there are more than one Alpha child, the pack goes to whoever wins the title duel. And the duel doesn't necessarily have to end up with killing because after all they are siblings. But they have to win it by pinning the other one down. So considering that, she should have been trained for combat and duel. But she doesn't look like that at all! Something feels strange about it. "What is happening here?" Edna asks again, and her face is slowly showing signs of calmness. Tha
Venus's POV I lift Dorian up, grabbing the collar of his shirt and he shrieks once before he twisted my wrist and got out of my grip. Now Dorian and I are growling at each other, moving in a perfect circle, waiting for the opponent to strike first. The crowd around us is going wild. We are having a weekend war. Everyone in the pack who gets training done everyday participates in this. And they usually go by ranks. Alpha King never participates in this, because if he enters the fighting rink, then no one but him would emerge victorious. His power exceeds all of our pack members' powers combined. So I am always stuck with Dorian, being next in line to me. "Afraid again, Dorian?" I smirk at him, and then wink, making him lose his cool for a second. He raises his arm, aiming for my ribs but his movements then get too predictable that just after a minute, he is already on the ground, groaning with pain. Dorian was the one who taught me many of these fight skills, but the Beta blood i
Venus's POV Dorian didn't let me go, and didn't let his hand get off my face either.. until we reached a safe distance from the fighting grounds. And as soon as he let me go, I kicked his leg making him scream in low case. "Ow! That hurts but you have a goddamn reason," Dorian says, hopping for a minute. His werewolf might have healed it in a second. He is being just as dramatic as I can be with him. "Is there anything you want to tell me?" I ask him, even though a theory has already formed in my mind. I just want him to tell me about it instead. "He is my mate," Dorian says in a bare whisper. Never mind. All the theories I formed in my mind literally jumped straight out of the window. Cole is Dorian's mate? Dorian is gay? How come I never knew that? Well, maybe because he doesn't act like the stereotypical gay person. "And before you say something, let me tell you all about it," Dorian says. He goes on and on and on about how he found this on the day of the Full Moon Festival
Venus's POV"Edna and I are coming to the training grounds. So if you and your mate are doing something scandalous, I suggest you stop it now asshole!" I mindlinked Dorian real quick as Edna and I walked towards the training grounds. It's been three days since Michael asked me to train Edna. The first day, she sulked that she doesn't have proper outfits for it. The second day, she screamed that she felt ill which was fake. And the third day, Michael himself gave her the fight outfits to which she couldn't say no to. And here we are now. This is the first time I am seeing Edna in something other than her dresses. She is feeling a tad bit uncomfortable and it shows. The tunic and workout pants are hugging her body nicely and boy oh boy she has a great body! Edna was always seen dressed in long sleeve dresses so I haven't seen much of her skin other than the neck, face, hands and a bit of a cleavage here and there. But now with the tunic on her and her arms on display, her skin looks
Alonso's POVKissing Venus is something I would love to do for a lifetime, and still never be bored doing it. Her scent, her soft skin, her low moans, the way she tugs at my hair, everything about her is making me go so damn crazy. "I love you," I whisper as I kiss her belly button. She moans a little as I lick her all the way down to her thighs. "I love you Alonso, please" she is already squirming under my touch. But our session stopped abruptly when there was a knock on the door. It took me a second to catch the scent since the door is closed and the scent isn't traveling freely through the air. It's Dorian and he is now pounding the door. Both Venus and I cannot escape now. He will catch my scent and it will be thick in the air since I am still here. "It's okay. One day or other we will have to do this," Venus says as she puts on her clothes. I do too, rather quickly. And by the time Venus opens the door, I am sitting on her bed, fully clothed. But Dorian's eyes are screamin
Dorian's POV The scent of salt hits my nostrils and I smile before even locking the door behind me. I see him in the corner and smile even more as I walk towards him. "Now that's the view I love coming home to," I say watching him chop something on the kitchen counter. He is shirtless so that makes this whole view even more insane. "I realized you'd be hungry. And this is the time you get off work. So I thought I'd make you something," Cole tells me. All I could do was just smile at him. No one paid me at least a little attention. Venus indeed cares but sometimes, she gets sucked into her own life that she never has enough time for me. "And you should seriously stop having leftovers so you can have it for the next two days. My father would have had mine and my sister's maids if we were fed leftovers," Cole chuckles but I don't. Ever since mom and dad passed away, I pretty much grew up on my own. Sometimes Venus's mom took care. Some other times Alpha King's mother. But it never
