She blinked several times, the sensible part of her mind fighting with the fear that gripped every pore of her being. "It's me, Belle." He said softly while taking yet another step closer. His hands raised in surrender. This time she didn't flinch and continued to gaze at him as if she was seeing him for the very first time. "Easy baby, easy. Just breathe." He cooed softly while walking toward her in slow calm steps, she was so focused on his hands to notice his approach. The only thing going on in her mind was that the hands were normal like human beings. No claws, nothing. He was harmless. Her eyes flickered to his only to gasp out in shock. He was right in front of her. So close, almost in her personal space, she noticed those familiar green hues that brought comfort to her being. "X... Xa... xander..." She stammered badly as a sob raked her body. Her senses came back fully, her legs giving up on her but before she could fall to the floor two large muscular arms wrapped arou
Xander came back to his room and Emma was still fast asleep. Sitting on the bed right beside where she lay. He gazed at her peaceful face. The image of a 13-year-old bloody Emma raked his mind causing his heart to constrict painfully inside his chest. "You are my strong Luna." He whispered, caressing her cheek. Never in his life had he thought that this little girl has faced so much and fought her whole life. Bastard of him to think that she was weak when in reality she was far more fucking strong than many. She was a warrior. "My warrior." He whispered and rubbed his thumb over her chapped dry lips. Emma groaned in pain. Her head felt as if gazillions of needles were pricking it and each of the needles weighed like a boulder. She grabbed her head as her fingers dug into her scalp to ease the pain but it won't go away. Groaning, she tried to sit but didn't have enough energy to do so. She peeled her eyes open with force and blinked several times to adjust her sight to the dark s
"He yanked me out of my hiding place. H... he threw me at the b.. bed and g... grabbed me from behind. I was a kid and terrified... my parents were laying dead on the floor in the pool of their blood... he would've d... done something horrendous but c... cops came because my father had already dialed them before Victor came. H... he attacked me and left me bleeding do die b... but I survived." She stammered her voice trembling. His heart constricted painfully inside his chest and all he wanted to do was give that bastard a slow painful death. "I was in a coma for 6 months. My... my grandparents came from Florida and after hearing the news my... my grandmother had a heart attack and she died... only my grandpa and I were left...." Emma breathed heavily while wiping away her tears. "He wasn't the same happy grandpa anymore, his health deteriorated with time and eventually he also left me and passed away... I've been all on my own since then..." She whispered as Xander pulled her soft
"I... I... want you b... but..." She stammered. Xander's body became rigid at her words. The euphoria that blasted inside him knew no bounds. "I...I'm a firm believer of umm... that... Ummm after marriage." She blurted with red beetroot cheeks. Xander turned to face her and the way she looked down with those red cheeks and red ears, he was mesmerized. 'Blake I need a pastor. You have 30 minutes.' He mind-linked Blake and after giving his order he shut him off without even hearing his reply. "Get ready babe, you only have one hour to prepare for your wedding." He blasted the bomb at her. Emma who was still buzzing with his touches gazed at him with half-hooded eyes. "Huh?" She looked so fucking innocent. "We are getting married in an hour." He said every word slowly so it would register in her mind. "W...What?" She stuttered in shock. That was too fast! Uh Oh! His fingers caressed her cheek as his knuckles lowered down and caressed his mark on her neck ever so softly. She tre
Carrying her in his strong arms he softly placed her on the bed and in seconds she was stark naked on his bed like a trembling leaf. Emma immediately sticks her thighs together while covering her bosoms with her trembling hands. The words of her bullies started to ring in her head like a mantra and she felt a lot more conscious and dejected. Moving away from her, he stood at the foot of the bed. His dark eyes dead set on her as he removed his shirt ever so slowly as it lay on the floor with other clothes. She gazed at his massive built-in pure adoration and awe, he was beautifully sculpted like a greek God with all that daunting tattoos. This man was hers and she couldn't believe it. Whereas on the other hand, she was fat with scars. Her nose tingles and tears threaten to form in her eyes. He opened his belt and then his fly. He removed the pants along with his boxers simultaneously and her eyes widened to the size of saucers as she gaped at him. Her throat clogged up and her mo
The next morning Emma woke up with a groan. Her head felt heavy and her whole body was as if someone crushed it under the bulldozer. She tried to move with closed eyes but the sweet soreness between her legs had her eyes opening wide as slowly the sweet yet raw night of passionate love invaded her mind and blush crept through her cheeks. He confessed! She still couldn't believe this. Last night was the best night of her life. He was so caring yet maddening at the same time. She caressed his arm on her waist and turned around to face him. He was asleep. The look of contentment on his face said it all. Her heart purred in ecstasy at the sight of him. All her assumptions were proven wrong. Xander was nothing like what she thought of him. He was even far better than many humans. She was stupid to push him away when all the while she needed him the most. Her mate. She smiled at herself. She was thinking like a werewolf now. She let out a sigh of contentment and kissed his neck befor
Silvia made it her mission to show the whole mansion to Emma as both girls wandered around the magnificent place and Silvia kept on blabbering about each and everything. Emma got to know about the gigantic library, a massive gym, a mini movie theater, a big swimming pool in the backyard, and also a gorgeous-looking garden of acres. This was pure heaven in short words. Silvia dropped her back to her room in the afternoon. And after all the tour she was already tired. Closing the door behind her, she walked further and plopped herself down on the soft, comfy, and gigantic bed of his. Her cheeks turned red realizing that it was him who changed the sheets when she was bathing. How generous of him. Emma swiveled around now on her back on the bed as she gazed at the ceiling while deep in thought. She felt light. Happy. Content. She didn't realize when sleep consumed her and the next time she woke up, it was already evening. She slept like the dead for that long. She immediately fr
Emma cast her eyes down and nodded softly making him smirk. "Ahan." He rasped right on her ear as his lips nibbled her earlobe causing a shuddering breath to escape her lips. "But I want to fuck you." He growled slowly, making her heart stutter inside her chest. Feeling bold enough, she gave a feathery soft kiss on his throat earning a groan from him. "I'm not that sore." She whispered meekly and that was all needed for him. "I fucking love you, doll." He said in his deep voice. The intense look in his eyes caused sparks all over her body. Grabbing her delicate hand he sinfully placed it on his hard member through his slacks. Emma gasped horrified at his act but he continued to gaze at her and squeezed himself through her hand. "X...Xander..." She stammered almost breathless. "Feel what you do to me." He growled lowly making her shudder. Letting go of her, he stood up and she as well. He walked towards the large sofa and sat on it with his thighs spread wide and dominatingly.
