She marvelledat the elegance of nature that stretched all around the mansion. Her eyes couldsee an immense distance across the timberlands. The mist that floated acrossthe greenery made the environment seem like a delightful, whimsical dream. Shestretched her hands above her head and worked the kinks out of her shoulders.The previous few days were tedious and today was the most dreadful time of theyear for her.Eleven years ago today was the last time she sawher father.That morning, he had informed her he was going onan adventure, and he promised to tell her all about it when he returned, butsomething told Hazel that her dad wasn't coming back.

HAZEL'S POV3 HOURS LATERI drew in a deep breath and analysed my reflectionin the mirror. I could not fathom the reality that this day had produced. I wasgetting married the same day I turned 19 and accepted said marriage proposal.A sadness quickly washed over my heart as Iremembered my parents were not there to share my happiness."Do not do that, Sweet Pea," aunt Julesoffered a comforting hand on my shoulder. "I can feel your anguish, butknow that Abraham and I are here for you," she kissed my forehead."Thank you, aunty.""Now let's get this dress on," shegrimaced when she looked at the skimpy design, but Zander said that usually,both parties were naked during the ceremony. But because I am not a werewolf, Icould be clothed.Aunty helped me into the off-white mermaid-styledress, it had a plunging neckline that ended just above my navel. My back wasbare, and the dress had rhinestones that sparkled under the lights from top tobottom. I could see my skin beneath the materi

There was no way I could perform themall in one night of bliss.I blocked out Gidian, call me selfish, but Iwanted the night to be just the two of us.Hazel begged for my touch and pleaded with me toenter her, but I was not going to give in so easily. I wanted her to get ataste of how it felt to crave my touch, the same way I craved hers for months.I looked at her naked body.
