NORAI was wrong when I thought he would carry me back to the Brothel. He took me back to the castle instead through the wide open gates and we didn’t talk to each other the whole way.Striker looked conflicted about something. I didn’t need to ask what he was thinking. I knew it already.He didn’t want to kill me right now because it would be too troublesome for him, but when this year ended, he wouldn’t let me leave with his secret. I would have to think of an escape then, but right now, I should only think about the present and I should try my best to not infuriate him any longer.I liked my head too much to let it rot in a basket so soon.After he put me on the bed in his room, he left to do God knows what. Amanah came running to his room, her eyes screaming worry.“ I even gave you the potion, yet you got caught. ” She scolded like a mother.“ I know right? I am such an idiot. ” I sighed, dropping on my back.“ Why are you so dirty? ” She asked, walking closer.I looked at the ce
NORAStriker released my lips and trailed a path of open-mouth kisses down my jaw, my neck, and my collarbone. I was breathless and so hot that I doubted I would survive this sweet torture.If I thought his lips were enough to send me to hell, he brought his right hand up and cupped my right boob. My soul departed from my body. He grinded against me again, as his hands played with my body and his lips trailed kisses to all places he knew off.He grabbed the neckline of my dress and tore it to reveal my bare boobs to his eyes. Momentarily, he paused and sucked in a quick breath. I opened my eyes and held his dark gaze.Lowering his head, he ran his tongue across my right hardened nipple. I whimpered, my hands holding his shoulders for support. He opened his mouth as he kept my eyes pinned on him and sucked my nipple into his wet mouth.My head dropped back, my body arching into his as I moaned at the unfamiliar sensation.Growling like an animal, he peeled my back off the window and ca
NORA His cold shower took too long. When he finally stepped out with only a towel wrapped around his torso, I instantly went back to pretending to sleep. He shouldn’t know that I was waiting for him impatiently. “ Are you going to sleep in my bed? ” He asked. I heard the soft rustle of clothes and cracked my left eye open to peek at him. He was pulling his pants up while his eyes stared right at my face. Gulping, I closed my half-open eye again. What was I doing exactly? At this point, my tiny brain failed to comprehend this on its own. “ I know you are not sleeping, Lana. ” He hissed, strolling toward me. I didn’t budge and kept lying right there. It was not my problem that he knew too many things. I felt his body close to mine, and the sparks shot down my bloodstream. Shivering, I tried to slip a little away but he crawled onto the bed and hovered above me. This had me caged on the spot. His cold fingers traced my forehead, brushing the bangs aside. “ You are strange. ” He
NORAI never thought Striker would point the familiarity out like that. I was speechless, but I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep again. Huffing, he had only said that he knew I was Alpha Redley’s daughter and that’s why he was not going to suspect me, as he had previously suspected Beatrice.I was relieved. The whole assuming Lana’s identity thing had paid off at last.Then, I fell asleep but was restless the whole night and woke up early to get out of his room before he realized I was leaving.I was embarrassed and confused. I let him touch me and I liked it. Satan’s Buttocks! It was the most horrible thing I had done, yet I wanted to do it again. So, to prevent such mishaps, I did what was best for us both. I avoided Striker. I spent my time with Granny instead. She still didn’t know that I had learned the truth about Beatrice. After a whole week of avoidance and spending a lot of time with Amanah and Granny, I am beginning to think that both these girls I befriended were unaw
NORA “ You have proved you are good with people already so this year, I am giving you the right to choose which pack His Highness should visit. ” She dropped the bomb over my head. “ Me? ” I laughed nervously and looked at the Alphas. If I rejected two out of three, they would hate me forever. What did she want exactly? “ Yes, you, Lana. You decide. ” She gestured towards the Alphas. My gaze switched between her, Amanah, and the Alphas one by one. It was a test. She definitely wanted to see if I would be able to choose one without infuriating the other two. I had to fail right? But the visit was important too. What if my rash decision caused harm to Striker? It was nerve-wracking. “ I… ” I trailed off. “ If His Highness visits our pack, he will be able to see how we are holding the walls together to prevent a Vampire and human attack. ” Alpha Clarence spoke up. It sounded like he was trying to convince me. Did he think I had the power? I looked at Granny. She was staring a
NORAAmanah suggested I take the scent suppressor instead of poison. I told her no. It was not going to help me when I was inside the castle.So, to save myself from the wrath of the evil King, I hid on the top floor of the tower again. It was nice to lie down on the couch and stare out the window until the day was turning into night.‘ Striker must have found out about it by now. ’ Zoey chirped.For some reason beyond my understanding, Zoey was excited for Striker to find out that I failed to fail in the third test too. Perhaps, she was excited for the sweet torture Striker might inflict on me.‘ Go back inside the cage. ’ I clicked my tongue and blocked her annoying voice again but her giddy emotions remained with me.The heavy footsteps on the stairs caught my attention. My ears perked up, recognizing the rhythm of his feet before I picked up his scent.My first response was to fly out of the couch and hide behind it with a pounding heart inside my chest, giving me away if my scent
NORAI approached the same balcony where he had talked to me before. I didn’t know why he would wait for me there and what he wanted with me.But, I didn’t have a good feeling about it. And as always, I was excited to get into trouble. It felt like things were about to become really fun.I stopped outside the balcony and glanced down at the expensive green gown Amanah had dressed me up in because I was meeting the Alphas today.“ Why are you standing there? ” I heard the voice and instantly looked up.Dustin was standing with his hands over the railing and his back to me. I gulped the little bubble of nervousness and walked closer to him with small steps.I stopped beside him and looked at his face. He was staring ahead, at the view and was not even sparing me a glance.“ How long have you been doing it? ” He asked, startling me.“ What am…I doing? ” I pouted.I saw the corner of his lips curling up. It was not a genuine, soothing kind of smile. Instead, it was bitter as if he found m
NORA“ And who said you can do that? ” Striker rolled his shoulders, stepping forth.“ I don’t need permission to take back one of my own. I refuse to let her stay here. She must return home. ” Dustin spoke, his face taking on an expressionless facade.“ I told you, Dustin. I will deal with this. She won’t be telling anything to anyone. You don’t need to do this. ” Striker stepped back as if backing away from a fight with the man he considered a friend.It was clear that Striker still thought Dustin was worried about the whole Beatrice thing. I scrunched my nose, feeling weird in my tummy. Was this good? Or not?“ I…can not do that. I will know what she is up to if she is with me. ” Dustin’s stern gaze flickered to me.Dustin was good at pretending. He didn’t seem interested in clearing Striker’s doubts. All he wanted was to claim me, even if it was as Lana and not Lenora. Lycans were possessive indeed. I felt like smacking Dustin after getting these strange thoughts.“ I will not r
