From the corner of my eyes, I saw a tall, muscular man dressed in all black barrelling toward us, presumably a bouncer, but it was not the one Aiden spoke earlier that afternoon. I rushed towards the Alpha and grabbed a fistful of the back of his shirt, nudging him. He saw the line of my vision, letting out a curse.
"This is not over!" The Alpha warned, narrowing his eyes into slits at the Ricky guy standing in front of us.
Was he for real? I thought under my breath. After punching the guy, which he deserved, Aiden also gave him a warning. My head spun around as two more bouncers started racing towards our direction, scowls plastered on them.
I stumbled behind Aiden, heart pummelling quick and fast against my ribs as I threw a g
/Aiden’s POV/“I’m going to kiss you now. Is that okay?”Instead of responding, her eyes fluttered shut, fanning her cheekbones. That was all the permission I needed as my lips crashed against hers. Our lips melded together in a way that left flickering embers tingling up my spine and the omega parting her thighs, beckoning for me to fit between them.I placed a hand on her hip, then, my hand warm on her skin as I turned us around, leaning Rose up against the nearest wall to the bed. Our kiss deepened, and my leg pressed up against the space between her thighs. I bit at her bottom lip, making Rose gasp in surprise for a moment before licking into her delicious mouth, my tongue moving against her with intent.Rose said that she wanted to move on, forget about the dumb mistakes we m
The thought of having Aiden’s knot made my legs clench, but I held back. I didn’t want him to find out about my pregnancy, not before I find a way to tell him. So when the Alpha made me stand on my shaky legs, I made an excuse of being tired. He understood. Of course, he did.The Alpha started gathering his articles of clothing scattered around the bed and couch, suddenly halting. He turned to me, a grin spreading on his lips as he held my lacy bra in between his fingers."I liked this on you.”My cheeks turned bright pink at that, and I whined in response to his teasing, reaching out to retrieve, but he grasped at my outstretched hand. He pulled me in so fast that I was left breathless as I blinked up at him.
Pain shot through me like lightning, and I barely managed to suppress the gasp that's escaped me. What? My eyes widened, those words echoing in my ears as I silently stood in front of the Alpha.“T-True, mate?” On instinct, I took a step back, pushing against the Alphas chest as hard as possible to put some distance between us. Silence lingered around; my mouth parted as I tried to take in his nervous expression.Turning around, I started swimming to the ground, my heart thudding painfully in my chest. Aiden was not the person to lie or make fun of something like this. Why would he reveal this now? Did he know all along? I had so many different questions racing in my mind, my body feeling numb and shivering.“Rose!” He yelled behind me, th
/Rose POV/A succession of heavy blurred sounds and unfamiliar faces haunt me in my sleep that remain imprinted onto my mind even when I open my eyes again. They did not make sense, but they seemed so real that I could not forget about any of them, fisting the sheets. It took me a surprising amount of strength to manage to roll on the other side, search for Aiden.“Bad dream?”I hiccuped, “I….”“It’s okay….” The Alpha murmured, bending down slightly and reaching around my shoulder, pressing me tightly to his chest. “I am here, baby.”A thumb brushed across my cheek for a blissful moment; it made me feel weightless, mattress giving in slightly underneath our combined weight mo
imp a/n at the end***The Alpha exhaled sharply, leaning up to suck a slick kiss from my raw, barely bitten lips. “I don’t want to let you go, baby.” But his hands left my lower body and reached up to touch the edges of my jaw. From up close, I could see that his eyes were darker, pupils dilated as they found mine.No words escaped my mouth at that, throat going dry. All I knew right then was that my lips throbbed with a dull ache, wet and raw from my mate's mouth and teeth. My entire body felt as though in a state of incompetence, muscles soft, and bones unreliable under me. For all I knew, my knees would give out within a minute.Aiden narrowed his eyes, a noticeable quirk to his lips like he enjoyed the slight change in my brea
/Aiden's POV/I ran a damp hand through my ruffled hair while staring at the thick layer of dust around the bench, subconsciously hoping that it’ll come crashing down and bury me with the rest of the weight I carried. Panic curled in my chest, something I hadn’t felt in years, not since that one fateful day my mother walked out on me. My mother promised to be back, and that has haunted me my entire life, clinging to every inch while I grew up.Making up every inch of me.I refused to break down on the way to the training ground while my mind seemed dangerously close to the edge. It’s not the time to be melodramatic about things I cannot change anyway. There has to be a reason why she came back after all these years, some hidden agenda. De
Those words kept ringing in my ears as I swiftly turned around. An omega was abducted. A chill ran down my spine as I realised the graveness of the situation. If they were ready to break in and take our pack members, the war was not far away.What now? The question kept echoing, my hand protectively wrapping Arnold in my tummy. How in the world was I going to protect our pup during this? No doubt the news of a new pup, especially an Alphas child, will bring joy to the people, but I still had to tell Aiden about it.Shaking my head, I focused on my erratic breathing, sweat droplets dripping down the forehead. I found skidding to a halt in front of the wooden door, a gush of dirt flying into the air as I almost drifted. A few candles lit in the windows dressed the walls on both sides, illuminating stretched silho
The Luna stared back at me, a furrow in between her brows. How could she not remember? I took a step further, noticing Reece stand next to her. Refraining from rolling my eyes at his behaviour, I turned to face Aiden's mother."It was a while ago; I was just a pup when you saved me from the Alpha attackers and handed me safely to my father."Realisation dawned on her face, lips slowly quirking in an upward position. A low-level gasp escaped her mouth, eyes gleaming under the chandelier lights. The Luna strode a few steps in my direction, her hands flying to settle on my shoulder. She looked up through darkened eyelashes, her vision slightly blurred from the shock of the news. “O-Oh, Moons! It’s you! I cannot believe this. Look at you!”
