The Alpha's Dark Obsession 41: The celebration
The kiss grew heated as Jade struggled with his internal wolf. He wanted to claim her at that moment. He wanted her to bear his mark, so it would be known to every shifter that she belonged to him. He wanted to rip off her dress and claim her at that moment. But he held himself back with a herculean will. He didn't want Kalista's first time to be rushed and hurried. He didn't want to take her when she was least prepared for him. He would take it slowly with her because she deserved that and more. She was like a delicate petal that had to bloom softly and fully. Besides, he also needed to discuss the marking and mating process with her. He tried to pull away but Kalista tightened her arms around his neck and pressed her softness against him. Jade groaned low in his throat and broke the kiss for a few seconds."My love," his voice sounded hoarse, raw with need. "Slow down...""Oh Jade," Kalista whispered against his lips, her body feeling like it was on fire. Jade had kissed her befor
The Alpha's Dark Obsession 42: The celebration II
Jade shut the door and immediately took Kalista into his arms again."That was just Mary," he said to her. "Her mother wants to host a celebration at night."Kalista knew because she had overheard everything, but all the pleasure she felt a moment ago had disappeared with Mary's unexpected presence. She hooked her arms around Jade's neck and stared into his eyes."What's wrong?" Jade asked when she just stared at him in silence.Kalista let out a deep sigh before she spoke what was bothering her."I know Mary didn't mean to push me, but I don't think her apology was heartfelt," she said softly. "Why do you say that?" Jade inquired, tracing light circles with his hands around her waist."I don't know, but for some reason, Mary doesn't like me," Kalista said and lowered her eyes. "Since the moment she discovered I'm your mate, she's been hostile towards me.""Don't pay attention to her my love," Jade assured her. "She's just jealous you're prettier than her."A pleased smile lit up Kal
The Alpha's Dark Obsession 43: The celebration III
The celebration began the moment the sun sank into the horizon. As if in agreement, a full moon slowly slipped out of the clouds, sending its silvery glow to the earth. The village slowly turned from being quiet to one of a festive mood. Lit lanterns were hung along the roof of the houses and in the trees, and under the moonlight, the lantern glistened like tiny jewels.In the middle of the village, there was a large pile of twigs and tree trunks that would be lit later as a bonfire. On one side, there were several tables filled with mouthwatering food while on the other side, there were wooden chairs meant for the elders of the village.Kalista was dressed in an elegant black dress that grazed the top of her knees. The dress contrasted prettily with her hair which spilled down her back beautifully. She stood by the door, waiting for Jade to return from where he went.Footsteps sounded close by and Kalista's face lit up in anticipation, thinking it was Jade. It wasn't him. Her expres
The Alpha's Dark Obsession 44: Tempted
The moon was high up in the sky and glowing brightly when Salem stepped into the middle of the gathering and the crowd hushed instantly. Dressed in a flowing black dress with moons amd stars adorning the hem, she looked like a goddess, with her vibrant hair trailing down her back. There was a goblet of wine in her hands and she turned to the crowd before her. The flames from the bonfire lit up her emerald eyes and they glowed like jewels."People of the Mist," she began in a clear voice. "Tonight's celebration is to honor the moon goddess who has never relented in protecting us, the supernaturals, from the dangers of the human world. Also, this celebration is to welcome Alpha Jade, and Orion back into the village, after so many years."There were murmurs of surprise and a few heads turned towards Orion and Jade who was sitting close to Kalista."Thus, let us raise a toast to them, to welcome them back to the village," Salem finished and raised the goblet she held. "To the Alphas of th
The Alpha's Dark Obsession 45: Tempted II
"I want you to make love to me, Alpha Jade," Mary whispered huskily.The expression on Jade's face didn't change. There was a slight raise in his brows, a flicker of surprise, and even when his eyes traveled down Mary's naked body, there was still to change in his expression. Slowly his eyes moved upwards until he was staring at her."Mary, put on your clothes," he said finally in a low voice. Mary was caught off guard when Jade asked her to put on her dress. She didn't know what she had been expecting him to say but it certainly wasn't that. The look of surprise on her face disappeared and she took a seductive step forward, batting her lashes dreaming."I know what you're thinking, Alpha Jade," she began in a husky voice. "Why would I do something like this when I know very well you have a mate? The truth is, I don't care if you have a mate. I've been in love with you for so long. I fell head over heels the first time I saw you, and I haven't been able to kill those feelings.""Mar
The Alpha's Dark Obsession 46: Betrayal
Kalista sat listening attentively to Orion as he talked about Athena, his lost mate and the only woman he had ever loved. It was like a romance story, one filled with love and pain. When he got to the part where he got captured by Apollo's men, there was a glimmer of tears in his eyes, and Kalista knew at that moment that there were some wounds that could never be healed. Losing Athena was something Orion would never get over and it broke her heart to see him look so sad and broken."You remind me of her so much," Orion finished and finally turned to stare at Kalista. "Which was why I was plagued with painful memories when I first saw you. You look so much like Athena that one could mistake you for her."Kalista slowly looked away. She knew Orion was in pain, but he had to face reality. There was no way she was his daughter. It just didn't add up."I never knew my real mother," she said softly. "The woman who raised me found me in the forest and took me in. So... there's no way... I'
The Alpha's Dark Obsession 47: Place your mark on me
Jade's beastly transformation happened in a matter of seconds, fueled by his anger and confusion. He had never lost control like this before, and it terrified him. In his feral state, he lashed out at Mary, slashing his claws across her face. Blood sprayed in the room as Mary cried out in pain."Help! Help me!" Mary screamed out and crawled away from the feral beast. She held her injured face in her hand, trying to chant a spell of healing in her mind. The door to the room burst open once more and several witches rushed in, alarmed at the sound of Mary's screams. The sight of Jade in his beast form shocked them and one defiantly stepped in front of the white beast."Alpha Jade," he grounded out in a hard voice. "You have broken the law of our village. You have hurt one of our own and you will be punished! Shift back this instant!"While still in his beast form, Jade's memory suddenly returned in a flood of emotions and images. He remembered the night in vivid details, how Mary tried
The Alpha's Dark Obsession 48: A bad sign
"I want you to make love to me."Jade felt his breath catch at Kalista's whispered response. It didn't help me when she moved closer and whispered in his ear."And place your mark on me.""Kalista..." he held her waist and backed her up against a tree. His eyes glowed eeriely in the dark, desire swirling in their golden depths. "You don't know what you're talking about.""Why?" Kalista challenged him softly. "Because you've never told me about the mating process? Did you think I wouldn't find out about it?""How in Selene's name do you know about that?" Jade rasped. "I never told you for good reasons."There was no way Kalista would tell him she heard it from Mary. "What reasons, Jade?" she asked instead. "Don't you find me attractive enough?"Jade muttered a curse and grabbed both of Kalista's hands in his large palms. Swiftly, he pinned her hands above her head and leaned into her, letting her feel the heat from his body and the bulge of his arousal.At that moment, he forgot the is
