I pause, the bodies on each side of the bed catching my eye. One of them looks like he was torn apart by a wolf which would explain the dried blood around Leander's mouth. The other one was shot. I run my gaze over Sophia, noting the marks on her neck. I didn't do that. It has to be one of these guys. They're lucky they got the easy way out. It's not seven in the morning but I've already exhausted my patience. I return my gaze to her where she's shifting from one foot to the other. "Let me explain" "Shut up!" I snap not interested in her explanation. Where did she get the audacity to point a gun at herself? If I hadn't gotten there in time, would she have forced me to bury her too? Fuck, I'm too exhausted for this shit. It's been days since I last slept. Grabbing her hand, I take her next door to my room and hand her one of my shirts "Put that on" "What?" "Are you deaf?" "You want to kill me while I'm wearing your clothes?" "Change, Sophia. Don't test my non-existent patience
I wish we hadn't left the bedroom. At least while we were there, I could pretend we were living in a different reality. One where I wake up in his arms and he kisses me like I'm the air he breathes. Where he's the Kaden I used to know. The one who doesn't shut me out and leaves for four freaking months. Where the fuck was he anyway? I didn't see any injuries on him when he got out of the shower which means he wasn't in danger or putting his life at risk. What I did see was a big fat dick that I was trying very hard not to look at. Lord help me, he wasn't joking when he said he'd gotten bigger. There's no way he'll fit in any of my holes... Shit, focus you whore. The reason I wanted him to come back was so we could talk. I want to know where I stand. Is there a chance we could rebuild our relationship? Or should I give up? What was he so busy with that he had to stay away for four months? I have questions, some of which I'm not sure he'll like hearing or be open to answering. Moving
I don't blame her for anything. It might seem that way but I know she wasn't to blame. The person responsible for the attack is out there somewhere. I've spent ten years chasing him and trying to find out his background. It's all I did when I was away. The world might be big but the space werewolves are allowed to occupy isn't. I searched every nook and cranny, hoping to find a clue that might lead me to that man but there was nothing. Which is impossible. He has to have a home or a place where he stays when he's not playing games with me. He came from somewhere. Since I couldn't find out anything about him, I decided to look into my background. My father and brother were werewolves. I believe my mother was also like them. There's no way a werewolf couple gave birth to a Lycan. Which means they were not my real parents. That man is also a Lycan and I have a suspicion that it would be easier to find out who he is after I've uncovered the mystery of my background. Sophia sniffs again,
I can't believe this is happening. That I'm under Kaden, naked and his. He claimed me. It wasn't a mating ceremony or anything close to that but it was similar. Like how humans decide to be exclusive in a relationship because they've started developing feelings for each other. He can't be with or even look at another woman. The same thing goes for me. Not that I go around looking at other men. Before this, I was picky. No one could ever compare to him. If yesterday or just this morning someone had told me this would happen, I wouldn't have believed it. It still seems like a dream to me and I'm waiting for my eyes to pop open and for the bitch inside me to laugh at my misery. I swear sometimes I'm my own enemy. "If you are thinking about another man, I will end him" Kaden growls, lifting his head to glare down at me. I love how vocal he is about his feelings. Well, most of them are out of jealousy but at this point, I'll take anything. As long as he's paying attention to me, I don't c
"Look who finally graced us with their presence," Leander says when we go down for breakfast the next morning. Everyone is sitting around the table but the chair at the head and the one to the left are empty. I pull it out for Sophia then sit at my spot. Her lips are swollen and she wears my marks on her skin proudly. If she wasn't so red, she would be on my lap. I love the way she gets shy whenever the guys tease her about anything sexual but behind closed doors, she's a different person. A bolder version of herself that knows what she wants and what makes her happy. I spent all night inside her but it's not enough. The second I leave, I want back in. And she was made for me because she's always ready. Always wet. My cock stirs at the thought of being inside her again. This is madness. An eager Ansel places a plate loaded with food in front of her. She smiles up at him and I'm tempted to take his eyes out. I own her, which means I own everything she has to
"Bite his face off or his arm or even his penis... No. Not that. We need it intact and he really knows how to use it. How about his leg? Wait, what are you doing?" Why is Kaden's face so close? I'm about to tell my wolf she can't kill him when I spot the wetness on his face. Shit. She is not licking him. Please, please tell me she's not licking him like a dog"I am not a dog" "Walk like a dog, talk like a dog, and guess what happens? Dammit! Stop that right now" "You can't tell me what to do" she replies then pushes me further back where I can only be a spectator while she acts unladylike. It doesn't take long for me to realize what she's doing. Payback. I didn't want to deal with her depression so I pushed her away and refused to let her out. Forgetting that she doesn't know how to process feelings the way humans do. I should have helped her but honestly, I just wanted to forget about Fred. He was never meant to be ours and clinging to him wouldn't have resulted in anything good. He
"Someone's on a war path. What did you do?" "Is she still angry?" I ask even though I know the answer. Another clanking sound fills the air making me wonder why she's taking her anger out on the pots and pans. She could ask one of the guys to be her punching bag. They'd do it willingly. Leander shakes his head pretending to be concerned but there's amusement shining in his eyes. Does this bastard enjoy seeing other people suffer? Am I suffering? From what? Sophia will get over it or I'll make her. Dammit, we are not the average couple. We don't break up over... We don't break up. Period! "Obviously. I reckon she'll be that way for the rest of the day so you have two options" My ears twitch at that. I don't have a lot of experience when it comes to dating. She's the only person I've ever wanted to be with and when it looked like it might never happen, I had a plan. Sleep with someone once every six months. Fucking someone and being in a relationship are two different things. I jus
Kaden has been acting strange since yesterday. Something happened after he apologized but I don't know what it was. He was somehow talking to someone but I couldn't hear what the other person was saying. It's strange since my hearing is just fine. I'm tempted to guilt trip him into telling me. I mean, how else am I supposed to get him to confide in me? Although it's unlikely that he might need my help but who knows? We could both be surprised. Thing is, I just finished telling him not to use his strength to get what he wants. Isn't manipulating him basically the same thing? Goddess, I didn't know how hard it would be to date him. We've been together for a little over a week and it's already this hard. Outside the bedroom, I don't know how what to do with him. I know he thinks I'm weak, not just me but everyone else. Because he's stronger, he doesn't think we'll be of any help to him and that's where he's wrong. We could help him come up with ideas or something. Unless he talks to us,
