Nathan:I smiled at the sight of Katerina who stood in front of the window, looking at the pack members as they trained.She wore nothing but a white, sleeveless night gown that reached her mid thighs. The bruises on her back were mostly healed now, her wolf speeding her healing process for her. I got out of bed and walked toward her, wrapping my arms around her from the back, taking her off guard as I pulled her to my chest. Gently kissing her cheek, I rested my chin over her shoulder, looking at the confused woman who stood in my arms. “Good morning” I whispered to her “how are you feeling?”Her plea last night played in my head as she asked for one night to forget that our marriage was something that we both didn’t want. Seeing as she was happy and somewhat content with what we did, I couldn’t help but want our life to be the way it is.“Morning” Katerina said, looking at me “I’m fine, thank you”She turned around in my arms, her cheeks reddening when she realized that I still ke
Katerina:My heart raced against my ribcage as I walked out of the house, my chest rising and falling with each breath I took as I feared the lash out that I was going to be facing with Nathan. Knowing that I just challenged his mum, I knew that it wasn’t the smartest thing to do; however, the woman had left me no other choice. She crossed every limit known to man, and I literally didn’t know what else to do to respond to her without ending the whole situation with a fight that would end up breaking Nathan and I.Nathan followed close behind, not saying a word as we both walked to the car. I had expected him to decide against our lunch, our breakfast having been skipped after our active morning. But I was surprised when he said nothing as I walked out of the house before his mum could respond to a word I said. I stood in front of the car, placing my hand on the door for a second before taking a step back when I saw Nathan’s reflection behind me instead of the driver’s seat. His eye
Nathan:I looked at Katerina who sat on one of the benches, running her fingers through her hair as she took a deep breath, calming herself down. Her heart raced as she shook her leg, processing what had happened earlier with Donatello.“Do you want us to go home?” I asked, looking down at her. She has refused to spare me a second glance after our argument, and has been sitting on the bench, getting lost in her thoughts since then.“You can go if you want, Nathan, I’ll manage my own ride, thank you” Katerina said, not looking at me. I took a step toward her, frowning when I saw her flinching before she wrapped her arms around herself, looking down at her lap “I would like to stay alone”“Can I ask why the whole subject bothered you as much?” “Really?” Katerina asked “you lied to me, made me believe that you wanted to take me out for lunch…”“I wanted to…”“To use me as bait to prove a point” Katerina said, stopping me “you wanted nothing with me, and I know for fact that you knew tha
Katerina:I wrapped my arms around Nathan as I submitted to him pounding restlessly into me, reminding me of who I belonged to as both a wife and mate.His arms held him up as he placed them either side of me, thrusting into me as if his life depended on it while he kissed my neck, gently sucking on a spot that had me squirming under him.“Nathan…”“Just a little longer, baby girl” he whispered, biting on the spot where he had marked me on our wedding night. My eyes rolled to the back of my head as I shuddered, my body shaking before I could stop myself as I reached my end, scratching his back in the process. Nathan growled, reaching his own climax, filling me with his cum as I made a mess out of his cock with my own. His body movements slowed as he rode the two of us off before he stopped completely, burying his head in the crook of my neck as he took deep, slow breaths. My body shook when I felt him pull out of me, whimpering at the loss of contact making Nathan chuckle as he lean
Nathan:I kept my arm wrapped around Katerina as the two of us walked out of the hotel, heading to a café across the street.I could tell that she wasn’t as excited to go to a club; therefore, a quiet café for the two of us seemed to be a lot more adequate.“I thought that we were going to a club?” Katerina asked. I had told her to wear a pair of jeans and a casual t-shirt as well as sneakers, and though she was confused by how she would be going to a club wearing that; she didn’t bother asking too many questions. I had jeans and a black V-neck shirt on, my phone and wallet were in my pockets, and for the first time in months, I honestly felt content.“I believe that you should have realized that we weren’t going to the club when I told you to wear something casual” I teased, kissing her temple “I figured that you wouldn’t want to go to somewhere crowded, especially not after our arguments today; therefore, I thought why not take you on a real date, somewhere where the two of us can j
Katerina:“Thank you for today” I said as Nathan and I entered the hotel room.“I didn’t do what I did for you to thank me, the two of us were simply having fun as a husband and wife” Nathan said, pulling me to his chest, wrapping his arms around me as he kissed the crown of my head “I believe that a few days of us alone are in order, especially since we’ve both had our fair share of annoyance with the family and its drama”“I don’t want to agree, but at this point, I can’t help but do so” I said, shaking my head. Nathan laughed, pulling me toward the bed. The two of us sat on the edge of it as he wrapped his arms around me, watching as I curled up and rested on his lap, my heartbeat calm as I listened to his own.“Do you want us to watch a movie? Maybe order dinner later? It’s still ten and I don’t believe that we would be falling asleep this early” Nathan asked, looking down at me.“A movie would be nice, but I don’t think I’d be able to have dinner after that fondue, but I wouldn’t
Nathan:My heart ached for Katerina whose eyes were fixed on the blanket in front of her.The way she spoke monotonously, and the way she avoided my eyes only made me realize how much it hurt her to live through what she has.I sat up, wrapping my arms around her, and pulling her to my chest. Katerina let out a quiet laugh before pushing me away gently, her eyes avoiding mine “I don’t need your pity, Nathan”“I am not pitying you, Katerina” I said, putting a finger under her chin, raising her face to make her look at me “not for a second, I am not. I was just trying to get to know you, trying to know where you came from, your past…”“I believe that sometimes, it is better for the past to remain in the past, don’t you think?” “Not always, malyshka” I said gently “sometimes it is better for us to accept and live through it. Yes, it hurts, but it is better than just hiding behind a shadow of anger or greed because of our pasts. I have my painful past too, and I too was forced away from
Katerina:I laid my head on the armrest of the couch as I got lost in my thoughts.University and classes started in two weeks, and the email of my scholarship withdrawal arrived earlier this morning, breaking my heart as it reminded me of the fate that I was forced to live because of my family.I was yet to tell Nathan about it despite wanting to, and seeing as I knew that hiding this from him would get me nowhere; I knew that the faster I got done with it, the better the outcome would be. My heart skipped a beat when I heard the house’s door open, and his scent filled my nostrils as he came inside. Inna and I were yet to talk about anything, and seeing as Nathan chose to delay his trip; I knew that he didn’t trust his mother alone with me at the pack.I got up from the couch as he entered the living room, wrapping my arms around him as I hugged him tightly. He kissed my cheek, wrapping his arms around my waist, pulling me to his chest before he kissed the crown of my head. His eyes
