*A short novella that begins a couple of days after Leo and Azura return from their visit to the Blood Moon Pack* BEAUTIFUL BOND Chapter 1 - Splash MARCEL. The alarm goes off and I stretch, sitting up in the guest room of my brother Alejandro’s mansion. I run my hand through my hair, frowning as I stare at the small pattern on the black and grey bedding. I came here two nights ago and I know for me it’s just an escape. Isn’t it pretty funny how I always yearned to have a complete family and now that I have that, I’m unable to spend as much time around them as I would like to? Because of her, my mate. The thought of the blond this early in the morning isn’t a good idea. Not when she’s not here to take care of me. I do need to return home today, though; I have stayed here long enough. Although I know I’m always welcome, it isn’t fair on Kiara and Alejandro either. Maybe I need a trip abroad… Yeah, I’m resorting to running from my fated mate, but you can’t blame me when she acts l
WINONA. I splutter when I break the surface of the water, my cheeks burning with humiliation. Marcel is here! Right here and I’m in this swimsuit! I only wore it because I knew Leo won’t be home until late and no one else was around! Now he’s standing there, looking down at me as if I’m for real and I am! I try to get out of the water, but I’m panicking, and my hand slips and I almost tumble back into the pool again but he catches hold of me, crouching down by the pool in those faded khaki pants and that black snug-fitting top that shows of how enviable his body is. A few strands of his unruly hair fall in front of his face as he looks down at me. Oh, he’s so handsome… My mind goes blank at his closeness and the way those dark eyes are burning into me, and I’m unable to even argue when he lifts me out of the pool. I instantly find my footing and step away, tugging at the skirt of my swimsuit as I look anywhere but into those chocolate-coloured eyes. He exhales, and I feel a slive
WINONA. “No.” Leo says firmly from where he’s standing with his arms crossed, leaning against the door. I nod in agreement, trying not to stare at myself in horror. Azura glares at us both. “Why? I did really good.” She says, frowning as she holds the blusher brush in her hand. It’s Corrado’s birthday today and Azura was adamant to get me ready herself. She looks stunning, with sultry shimmery make-up and glossy lips. “She looks like a hooker or something.” Leo frowns, making me look down, ashamed. Azura narrows her eyes. “You never have an issue when my make-up is dark. Do I look like a hooker to you too?” "Obviously not, but you're mine.” He replies possessively, and I wonder if I should sneak away and wash this all off whilst they are eye-sexing each other… “So now you're going brother mode or something?” Azura isn’t happy, and I take another peek in the mirror. Red lipstick, soft shimmer on the eyes with a smoky black liner… It’s so much darker than I’m used to! And for a ki
MARCEL. I let go of her. I can’t be the one to push her any further when I know how she feels. If there’s anything she does hold for me, then she needs to be the one to make the next move. She hesitates, her heart pounding as she stands there, her back to me. I couldn’t control myself seeing her, especially when she is dressed like that. I had to tell her… I didn’t miss the looks she got from some of the single men in attendance, and it riled me up. Her dress is tasteful, with just a hint of cleavage on show, whilst tantalisingly displaying her smooth back. I can’t blame anyone for checking her out when she really is such a beauty. Just like when I first noticed her in that black dress… I’ve never been able to look at her the same since. “Thank you.” She says, glancing at me before she turns and walks away. I sigh, hearing the sound of her heels receding, before I head after her myself and back to the party. I have a feeling she was upset regarding my conversation with Kristina.
WINONA. Azura sent me here. She was adamant she really wanted some spicy wings from here, although I had wondered why she wanted them since she had surely eaten when she was out. Something Corrado clarified, but I didn’t question it and came here, only to see Marcel sitting at a table with Kristina. It made me upset, and I have never felt so angry, but should I care? Do I even have that right, when I’m not even making a move? Even though everyone has given me their blessings in a way. I thought it’ll be ok but seeing her sitting there… I don’t like it, not one bit. “Join me.” He says, snapping me from my thoughts. I glance at Kristina, feeling bad for accusing her, but I don’t know if she’s really genuine… There certainly has been something between the two. I frown slightly and look at Marcel, and I see the flicker of surprise in his eyes at my expression. “I guess I will.” I say, giving a small smile. I don’t think Marcel even wants me if he’s here meeting up with one of his b
WINONA. “No, I’ve changed my mind.” I say, turning away from the black dress that sits on the bed. Azura tilts her head, her hands on her hips. She’s stunning in a slinky teal dress. “You chose it.” She says pouting. “And frankly, I love it and you would look amazing in it?” I look away from the doe eyes, knowing I’ll give in and stare at the dress once again. Yes, I did choose it, but I had a moment of ‘if I was choosing a dress for someone else with my figure, what would I choose?’ But then I realise I have to put it on… It’s going to show even more cleavage than the dress that Azura had chosen for me! “I did, but I think it’s a bit too much. I don’t want Marcel to get the wrong idea.” I reply. What is the wrong idea? Hmm, I don’t mind the attention even if it makes me so embarrassed. He makes me feel good. “Marcel, huh?” She winks at me, and I blush, realising I hadn’t said Alpha. “Maybe you can start saying, Daddy Marcel.” She snickers and I sigh. She becomes serious agai
WINONA. I let my hair down and turn, my heart is still a mess and I hold my wrist out not caring if I’m being shameless... If it means I can have the feel of his touch linger on my skin for a moment longer I don’t need to be asked twice. He latches the bracelet onto my bare wrist, raises my hand to his lips, and kisses it softly. "Perfect.” His eyes meet mine and I smile softly, the sexual tension is strong, and I can see his struggle, but somehow it only makes me happy… He wants me as much as I want him… I just need to be brave enough to show him that. He steps back, letting go of my hand and allowing me to step outside first. He helps me into his car before strapping me in and closing the door. What a gentleman. - It takes us at least forty minutes to get there and we have just entered the town where we will be having dinner at a popular restaurant. The journey was pleasant, and we even made small talk. A few times, things got a little… intense. “Have you been here before?”
