Edward's POVEver since Caliana came into my life, things changed, she was a part of me. She was a light in the darkness, she lit the path for me even when I was too blind to see sometimes, she made me a better man and Alpha. Now all I wanted was to be worthy of her. Caliana was right about Jane Anne, finally speaking about it out loud made me feel light like a heavy weight has been lifted off my chest and I could breathe again. All the anger and hurt I felt was gone along with that picture. I was a happy and free man and it was all thanks to my innocent, strong, lovely mate, Caliana Meyers. "Thank you," I told her, her chocolate eyes lit up in surprise as she asked, " For what?" "For coming when you did and for not leaving even when I was being a .." My words trailed, searching for the appropriate word. "Arrogant, prick, rude, cruel, etc," She named until I stopped her by connecting my lips to hers. "Yes, all that," "You're welcome and I couldn't leave even if I wanted to really,
Caliana's POVIt was on Friday morning when we decided to go away to the Chasia cabin that is by the lake. Edward and I took the master's bedroom and Love got the one next to us. The cabin house was really beautiful and serene, we were miles from town and we were surrounded by water. I quickly washed my face after I settled in and joined them downstairs to the salon, the men were drinking as usual except Jamal who seemed to be in deep thought, he was probably missing Ansley now since she was gone. "You didn't pack two of my dolls," Love said as soon as she saw me. "I told you to be there when I packed instead you decided to go get ice cream with Marcos," I murmured, she frowned at me. "But I reminded you several times," "And you could have just done it yourself then, so easy," I smiled tightly at her. "It's not fair," She pouted. "Life is unfair, Love, I always tell you to do some things yourself, especially things that involve your dolls," "I'm a kid," She raised her tiny arms
Caliana's POVEdward carried me in his arms and my legs wrapped around his torso, he pressed me against one of the tall trees. My fingers roamed him back and my moans escaped my lips. Before I knew it, we were both on the ground next to the lake and he entered me, he passionately began to thrust in and out of me, I knew that I was whole, I was moaning softly and meeting his pace with the soft movements of my hips. Our fingers interlocked as we made love, each time we did, was better than the last. My free hand clutched him and tears fell down my cheeks, tears that he kissed away. I was born to love Edward. I needed this man like I needed air. We didn't start on a friendly note but we both evolved and grew, he touched my soul without him knowing and I was here to stay, he was my home, my true home. I felt a knot in my stomach as I cried out my release and soon, he reached his goal. He switched our position so I was on top of him and we embraced so tightly. I was crying at the happiness
Candace's POVI wasn't going to go down without a fight. The biggest mistake they made was not to kill me or banish me. June was looking at me intently as I told her my plan, she wasn't too convinced now. "A powerful spell, Candace, a witch can never ally with a shifter and you'll die once the truth is revealed," She tried to reason but I was adamant. I will get that bitch back for embarrassing me and forcing the love of my life to leave me like I am nothing. I watch them every day, playing the part of the perfect Luna. The people's favorite Luna, like hell I'll watch that happen. "You're my best friend but I'm sorry, I can't be part of it," June said. I glared at her. "You suggested it," "Not literally, it was a joke!" She exclaimed and I rolled my eyes. My aunt told me that far from here resides a dark witch, not all know about her but she does some spells for a favor and I want her to break what bond the Alpha Edward and Caliana have, they will separate and he will choose me, I'
Caliana's POVI texted Alpha Dean to tell him that we can meet, I was unsure about this but I wanted to make things clear to him. I found him at the place we usually met near the boulders, his back was turned to me when I arrived but I saw his shoulders tense up when he sensed me and turned around, he was relieved to see me, but I frowned when I took him in, he had dark circles under his eyes and his beard had grown. What happened to him? "Caliana," He instantly came to my side, wanting to kiss my cheek but I moved away from him. He looked at me shocked and Liana whispered'Something is wrong with him,' "You wanted to speak to me, go right ahead, I can't stay long," I crossed my arms against my chest, waiting for him to speak. "How are you?" "I'm alright, Dean, but I will be even better when you stop calling, messaging, or sending me gifts, if my mate saw it, he will waste no time in attacking you like last time," I told him seriously, I didn't want to be gentle with him or else he
Caliana's POVReaching my pack, I felt nostalgia wash over me and a smile spread on my lips. I went straight to my home, the house I grew up in. The servants rushed to welcome me and I noticed that Evelyn and Vince were eyeing me from the garden, scared to approach me. I didn't pay any mind to them and greeted the servants, they were respectful towards me as always. I entered the house and breathed in, it was just as I left it and with every step I took, a memory of me here flashed in my head. I went to my old room and sat on the bed, I texted Alpha Edward to tell him that I'd arrived safely but he didn't respond immediately, I bet he was now in one of those long meetings. My door flew open and Levy and Emilia came in, before I could get on my feet to hug them properly, they tackled me in a hug. I giggled and embraced them. They were asking questions and talking at once, "Guys! Relax!" I shouted. They eyed me anxiously, wanting all the details about Edward and me. I fell back on th
Caliana's POV"My dear, Cali, you have grown into a fine woman," "It hasn't even been a full year," I retorted. "Oh yes, look at me, I missed you so much that it felt like forever," She chortled, drinking her wine. She was sucking up to me and I knew she wanted something. "We are sorry for what we did. It was cruel of us to use you in a deal forcibly," Vince said. I looked him in the eyes and he shrunk back. My memories of what happened last time flashed before me but I was quick to banish them away from my head for good."And me, going into your room that night and almost doing that atrocious deed last time, I'm sorry. I may not be your real brother but still, I should have protected you instead, I was the one to cause you pain," He said, sounding sincere now. "Dad would be so disappointed in me, he accepted me and gave me his love after my real father abandoned us. How could I be so cruel to his child, my sister?" His breath shudders and I cock an eyebrow. I'm not sure if he's be
Edward's POVIt has been three days since we've been here and I was getting bored with all the long meetings, and bickering between the Alphas every day. I interacted with my cousin, King Leondre before joining the others at the party. I listened to him as he talked about his mate. All he did was praise her."I'm happy you finally found your mate, finally the people have a queen," I told him and he nodded, gulping his drink."Me too. She's gorgeous and incredible, and her fighting skills are, damn, amazing! How I was able to live without her for almost twenty-four years still baffles me,"Yep, my cousin was a goner, he looked and talked like a man in love. I touched his shoulders seriously and said " Because she was only born about five or six years after you were?" I chuckled and he nodded."How are things with you and your mate?" He asked me. Eyeing me intently. A smile made its way to my face as I thought about my Caliana, she was so lovely and strong. I was blessed to have her and
