/Aiden’s POV/
It was dark as I reached the packhouse and looked up towards the familiar door with my heart caught in my throat. It’s deserted and quiet, with only a few windows illuminated, colouring the outside snow in warm hues that dragged shadows with them. Amidst I could hear my own pulse throbbing loudly in my ears. My legs are cold and stiff when I took the slippery steps up to the front door, my breath a light cloud in front of my face, arms rigid by my side.
“What are you doing?” I uttered to no one but myself as I unfroze my hands and lifted them. My knuckles almost stuck to the icy wood of the door when I knocked, holding my breath.
It didn’t take nearly as long as I hoped for the door to
I exhaled loudly while staring at the clock on the wall and peeking along the corridor. All the doors were closed, and there was a faint glow coming from the staircase. My body slumped against the nearest wall as I contemplated whether to climb the stairs or not.The last week has been nothing but hectic for both of us. Aiden has been fully immersed in his work for some reason, and my meetings with my birth mother increased. I was learning about her past, unravelling the mystery of my ancestors and the powers passed onto me. I wanted to reveal more about it to my mate, but we barely had the time to sit together for a single meal, much less than talk.Aiden was tired most of the nights, and by the time he came home, I was out cold, so we only saw each other in the
I rolled onto my back, and Aiden hovered above, keeping our lips pressed together. The desk creaked under the weight of them, but neither of us cared. I wound my arms around his neck and spread my legs for the Alpha to stand in between. From our position, I could feel his hard cock rub up against the inside of my thighs in the most filthy way. His tented pants did not conceal a single inch of him, my throat going dry at the thought of having him. Aiden kissed down from the corner of my lips, to my neck, all the way down to the rounds of my chest. "May I?" "Y-Yes." I stuttered, my eyes rolling back in anticipation. A
/Aiden’s POV/I pressed down and started moving inside her faster, changing up the angles each time which made the head of my cock rubbed against her clenching walls. The omega lets out a loud, breathless little noise, and I slapped a hand down on the desk, the other covering her mouth while pistoning into my mate again and again.“A-Alpha.” She brokenly moaned, tears slipping past her eyes.A growl escaped me as I continued with renewed vigour.“Are you hurting, baby?” I asked, the slight tickle of eyelashes brushing against the apple of her cheek. “Tell me, and I will stop.”In response, R
Waking up with a smile, I looked around the bed only to find it empty. The warm smell of Aiden still lingered in his bed, and the sheets carried his scent. I pushed the duvet off my naked body and slipped in his shirt, hurriedly buttoning them.Last night was something else. I chewed on my lips, unable to stop smiling like a fool, cheeks hurting. The Alpha was so tender and careful, so loving that I almost wanted to cry at the change. Before, it was all about sex, but the night before felt different, passionate and achingly lovely.Things between us shifted in a good way. I think ever since we managed to talk it out about Ria, a serene kind of atmosphere settled over us. The beta was no longer interfering or creating misunderstandings between us. I was aware that
/Aiden's POV/As soon as I stormed out of the door, my heart started thudding loudly, almost painfully. My skin felt hot to touch, rage coiling in my belly at the betrayal. At least that's how it felt like knowing Rose talked to two other people, confided in them before revealing her secret to me. How could she do this to me?Not only that, but the omega talked with Caden of all Alphas. That annoying punk. He doesn't even greet me properly and acts high and mighty as if he owns the place. The thought of his smug face only intensifies the anger swirling inside me.Hot-headed, I marched straight towards the training ground, slamming the door on the way. If that managed to startle some of the lounging wolves on the side, I did not pay attention.
A moment of stifling silence fell over as soon as the words were out. My brain wasn't processing fast enough. Pregnant. Did my mother say pregnant? I felt as if I got punched in the stomach as those words kept echoing. Falling on my knees, I threw a helpless glance at her, my heart beating a mile a minute. My head fell forward into the open palms."Rose!"I blinked at her absently, dumbly shaking my head—a pup. My hand involuntarily went to the bump on my stomach, lungs squeezing painfully. I had to tell Aiden. The thought made my heart stop in my chest. We were getting to know each other, trying to heal the scars from the mistakes and carry on with our lives.What kind of future would we have with an unplanned pup? And what kind of future would we provide for this — baby in my belly? All these kinds of qu
/Aiden's POV/A strange sort of silence settled over the living room as several pairs of eyes directed my way. Ellen and Caden might also be interested in knowing the explanation, but still, their scent in our cabin irked me. It was my fault at the end of the day, so I will have to deal with the slight inconvenience. Taking both her wrists in my hand, I made sure to drag Rose near the couch and sat her down."Seeing you laugh and talk freely with Caden made me jealous. It still does." I admitted, my cheeks going red. "He is an Alpha, and it makes me angry that you both hit it off so well. Walking out, I saw him in the training ground, and everything came surging to me."A low sigh escaped my mates lips at that, her head cast down. My grip loosened, and I narrowed my eyes towards Ellen. The
My brows knitted together at the shift in Aiden’s mood, his scent turning slightly bitter. I followed the line of his vision to see a young woman walking in our way, her lips quirked in a smile. The Alpha almost crushed the cone in his hand, a wince slipping past him before he threw away the entire gelato in the bin.“Alpha Aiden.” The stranger bowed down in front of him before straightening up and turning to face me. Her lips pressed in a thin line.“Do you two know each other?” I asked, pressing closer to the Alpha.“Yes”“No”They both replie
