Elva’s POVI stood before him, bathed in the ethereal glow of the full moon.My heart pounded in my chest, anticipation mingling with nervousness. The air crackled with electric energy, signaling the profound moment about to unfold. Jeffrey, my one true mate, stood tall and commanding, his eyes reflecting the fervor that consumed us both.He approached me slowly, his gait purposeful yet gentle. I shivered as his fingers grazed my cheek, tracing the contours of my face. Our eyes locked, and at that moment, I knew there was no force stronger than the bond that united us. The ache in my chest transformed into an overwhelming desire, a yearning that could only be fulfilled by him.The moon cast cascading shadows on his chiseled face, highlighting the raw intensity in his gaze. His lips met mine, igniting a fierce fire within. The touch was gentle, yet every brush ignited a primal hunger, a longing I could no longer deny. Our mouths moved in perfect rhythm, a dance of need and longing as i
ELVA'S POV On turning to meet Darian, I couldn't find my words. My lips quaked as I tried to say his name. "D…De…Demian," I helplessly stuttered, my eyes welling up with tears. "Elva," he took a step closer, "my beautiful Elva." "No," I whispered, "this isn't real." "It's happening right before your eyes. I'm back, Elva," he said to me. It turned around to the maids, "Somebody, get me water, please." On saying that, I fell forward immediately and Darian rushed to catch me in his arms before I could reach the floor. Landing in his arms, his scent reignited my body with the memories of the last time we were together. The muscles of his arms seemed to have reduced, but they still gave me that same feeling of comfort and safety I always had whenever I rested on them. "Are you alright?" He worriedly asked. "I'm…" my chest was heaving up and down with slight motions. I gazed into his face, tracing from his blue eyes down to his perfect jawlines which had been covered with some bea
ELVA'S POV It was the eve of Demian's wedding. The whole place was swarming with guests walking about. As festive creatures, we cooked a lot of food and served wine at all ceremonies. The aroma of spices danced into people's noses as they walked about. Many of them who were visiting Demian's pack for the first time took their time exploring the place. Darian was quite occupied, helping out with the preparation of many things for the wedding. I had thought I'd get to spend some private moments with him, but it turned out to be the opposite. I decided to walk around and maybe get to meet some new friends. There were lots of beautiful Lunas attending the wedding. I could make friends with one or two of them. There was no harm in a trial. As I walked along a lonely corridor in the backyard which was poorly illuminated, I felt my temperature rising again, my heart beating in an unimaginable pattern. It made me want to purge and I quickly ran to a toilet immediately. When I got into
DARIAN'S POV "Who the fuck are you?" I asked the guy who stumbled upon Elva and I making out. "Are you daft?" He countered, "We just met some minutes ago. Well, first of all, get away from her!" His voice was challenging, showing that he was entirely serious about what he had just said. Get away from Elva? For what? Who did he think he was? "Elva, come over here," he stretched an arm toward Elva, "come back to me and don't get used by someone lecherous werewolf." "Who the hell is this guy?" I quickly turned and asked Elva. But she ignored me and faced the guy instead. "Enough of this madness, Nolan!" She thundered, "I don't have anything to do with you anymore!" At this point, I was entirely lost. I had never seen Elva with this man or even perceived his scent once. "Is he one of the men you tried to marry when I was serving?" I asked her, thim in a soft tone. "No," she answered, turning back to me, "this is Nolan Blackwell, my former fated mate who broke our bond without lo
ELVA'S POV After breakfast the next morning, I noticed that the nausea which I had been feeling due to Nolan's presence back then at the party had vanished. Smiling had been very difficult for me until this morning. Lu and his mate had been so clingy since the previous night. They rarely came out of his room. I wondered if he had already claimed her or if he was waiting to get to know her well enough before doing that. Darian had woken up very late. He was coming down for breakfast when I was racing up the stairs to get back to my room. He was wearing a furry brown coat, with his hands tucked into the pockets of the coat. The morning was chilly to some extent, but since I got up from the bed and ran around the castle, I'd felt warmer. "Good morning!" I hugged him. His arms slid out of his pockets, going down my waist and circling around it, and then he pulled me closer. "You're lighting up the world with your smile this morning, Elva," he said, his affectionate gaze buried dee
DARIAN'S POV"Hey, hey! Calm down now, okay? Drop the knife, please. Slowly, slowly…" I gradually approached Melinda, Lucius' mate."You too!" She screamed at me, "Get any closer and I'll kill myself!"She raised the knife to her neck, her grip unwavering."Oh no. Elva, do something about this," I whispered.Neither Elva nor I had found out that the cause of the aggressive situation between the two couples who were meant to be having one of the best moments of their lives.Elva closed her eyes and in what felt like ten seconds, Melinda fainted. Lucius caught her before she could fall to the floor.Before we could even ask what happened, he muttered, "No one told me she had psychological issues."At this, Elva's eyes popped with disbelief. "What!"I found a sachet of pills in her purse which seemed to be something she should be taking frequently."Look," he snuck his hands into his pocket and brought out a sachet of pink tablets of medicine.Elva's mum rushed over and took it from him.
DARIAN'S POV I was taking a walk in the garden lost in thoughts. Thank God I've patched things up with Elva just thinking about us fighting made me scared of how our relationship would turn out I hate Nolan for everything that happened between us, but I am also thankful to him for rejecting her otherwise she wouldn't be mine which made her here with me today. I was still thinking about it when I heard footsteps. I turned to the direction it was coming from and I saw Elva come towards me with a sweet smile on her face. She looked even more beautiful under the moonlight with her pink nightwear and robe. "Hey my beautiful princess, you look stunning," I asked, bringing her towards me. She came to hug me slipping her hands around my waist and circling it while making me lower my head to kiss her. She pulled me closer to her body and I hugged her. "So, you wanna tell me why you're out here all by yourself this late at night?" She asked, " I was just having a little fresh air th
DARIAN'S POV I always suspected you were hiding something from me and tonight just proved it. " What are you hiding from me, and why won't you let me mark you?" I asked angrily " It's not like I don't want you to mark me, it's just that I can't let you mark me." She said looking sad. " Why?" I asked. " I can't tell you " " You can't or you won't?" I asked, looking even more angry. " I don't know, I just can't say it," she said. " What am I to you then?" I said out of frustration " Hum?" she said looking confused " What am I to you?" I repeated the question again. " You are my lover," she answered with a confused face " Then why won't you let me mark you? And why won't you tell me what you are hiding, I have the right to know!"I said. She stayed silent and turned to the other side of the bed, sitting on the edge using the blanket to cover herself. I was already boiling in anger, I got up, took my clothes from the ground, wore it, and stormed out of her room. I went straig
