I let her walk in front of me while continuing to ogle her flawlessly rounded behind. My cock pounded forward as my heart raced. I didn't stake anything on men gawking at her—on what belongs to me. If I saw someone staring at her, my inner animal would probably come forth and rip throats out. Especially since this town is populated with humans. For the next hour, I was successfully able to help her shop without her giving me a glare and putting back what I am putting in her cart. Perhaps she became tired of giving me her warning gaze. I quietly perused the list she had given me. My primitive drive to take care of my mate was strong. We left and started walking in the village's quaint shops. She continued to act as if I didn't exist while I was still behind her. She abruptly came to a halt near a stand selling accessories. I stood next to her. She reached out to touch the necklace with a moon pendant. A faint smile briefly passed across her lips as she ran a finger over one. The moon
“How did you learn about Lara?” I asked, baffled. She raised an eyebrow and I noted how she grasped the plastic bags holding her belongings tighter, "I'm not supposed to?” “No, it's just—” She interrupted me once more and I mentally added that she would be punished for that once she was back in my bedroom. The only thing I can hope for is that my little human mate enjoys being spanked since I enjoy painting and kneading her crimson ass. Just the thought of it makes me hard. "It's alright, you don't need to explain, but to answer your question, she came into the neighborhood earlier with her grandma and she talked about you going to the library every Wednesday," she said. I restrained the grin that was starting to appear on my face. I think my sweet little mate was jealous. My inner wolf and I are thrilled to know that my precious little mate doesn't want to share, which clearly she was yet to accept. “She was no one to me, Jaidyn. There's only one woman for me and she was in fro
I slowly sat up and rested my head on the backrest of the couch as I fluttered my eyes open. My attention was drawn to the window, where the ocher sunrays of the afternoon were seeping through and bathing the living room a glow. "Ugh" I groaned, aware that I had overslept and that my sore back was the result of my uncomfortably curled-up position. Nevertheless, I'd like to blame my lack of productivity today mostly. After being motionless for a while, I finally made the decision to get up and pick up my phone off the nightstand. Three o'clock in the afternoon had already come and gone. I went to the sink and drink water while my fingers thrum on the table as I think of what I can do today. Anything productive if possible. Afterward, I began to consider wifi. Before going to the library, I had the intention of searching the internet for a possible clue. Not today though, since Lara and Traian were both there, I'm sure. No, I refuse to see them together. I can prevent it by not sto
He chuckled as he adjusted the camera strap on his shoulder and took in the breathtaking scenery all around us. "I usually prefer my photographs to be devoid of any humans and to solely include trees, nature, and the sky.""So why did you want me to be on it? If you say so, I can actually take a step back. I don't mind because I'm planning to go too, so it won't be a problem for me”"I don't know why, but watching you admire nature with those green eyes of yours makes me feel as though I can see the world through them.” He uttered those remarks with such seriousness, there was truth oozing from his words.He was such a well-spoken and deep guy, and I find myself admiring that. I also note that if he were to meet Anna, there is no doubt that they would click because my friend was such a perceptive person. We both are.I gave a quick nod before beginning to walk while he walked beside me. “Then is it okay to claim that you merely use me to see nature differently? ", I teasingly said.He
My chest tightened at the sight of them, but I ignored it and returned my attention to Traian's face, "Hey" "We meet again," Lara remarked, warmly beaming at me, which she hadn't done all morning. "Right," I said. Her gaze was drawn to Adam and then to my hands. I followed her gaze and quickly released my grip on Adam. She flashed a fake and knowing grin. "Who exactly is he? Is he your date today? " she asked. I noticed Traian's hands tightening around her waist. But I was too preoccupied with registering Lara's words, which led to the absurd conclusion. It didn't sit well with me. "No, we just happened to cross paths on our way," I replied dismissively. "That's a good excuse," she remarked, grinning at me and enthusiastically adding. "I know a great diner where we can all eat." “Are you sure?” Traian said in a gentle voice as he faced Lara. His eyes gave concern. I averted my gaze after they exchanged those few seconds of staring, as Claire and the others had. They appear to
"Do you want to order now?" Michael asked politely, catching my attention. I nodded since, with the exception of Kate's, I usually order the same thing at every diner I visit. "I'd like a club sandwich and an iced tea, please." "I'll have burgers and an iced drink," Adam remarked as he placed the menu down. His gaze was fixed on Lara. Michael nodded, writing down our orders on a piece of paper, and turned to face Lara, who smiled at him. "We'll get the same one we usually get," Lara replied softly. "You're a regular here?" Adam questioned, echoing my thoughts. Lara glanced at me before turning to face Adam and saying, "Yes, Traian and I usually eat here, which is why Michael had memorized our favorite dish here." When a pang of jealousy slips into my heart, I discreetly take a deep breath and glance around. Stop, there's no reason for me to feel that way. I tried to look elsewhere, anything to divert my attention, but it was futile when Adam asked a direct question once more. "
We finally stopped and I moved away from him only to find him staring at me. As he examined me from head to toe, his jaw was locked. I move away since the intensity of his gaze on my body is making me feel uneasy. Only then did I notice the black ranger on the side. This was the car we took that night when we went to his place. His place was a freaking castle. I turned to face him and took off his coat, handing it to him.I said, "Thank you for this, but I can handle…..." As I looked around, I realized that I had no idea where I was.He tilted his head and cast his gaze over me, saying, "Handle yourself? I doubt that."The intensity of his gaze caused me to shift uneasily on my feet, though not in a bad manner.He took the coat from her and nodded, "Yeah, I gave you this to cover your chest but I think you don't need this anymore because we are alone now," he remarked smugly, "I kind of like you this way.""What are you talking about?" I said annoyed and faced the glass window of the
I sighed and took off my boots, entering the room with only my socks on. Even though there was already a small amount of dirt where Traian walked in, I don't want to scuff up the spotless floor of this lovely house. As soon as I walked inside, the interior astounded me. It was really neat, clean, and organized, with minimal furnishings. It is a mix of simplicity and sophistication. Such a lovely and cozy place. I scanned the area in search of the restroom while debating whether or not to ask Traian where it was. Till the rain stopped and I was out of his sight, it would be best to keep conversation with this man to a minimum. Traian came out of the kitchen and stared at me, which caused my stream of thinking to pause. I couldn't help but notice how fast his gaze swept over my body. Heck, I can feel my body reacting to every movement he makes. I am feeling so wicked right now and bad. So much for being a bad girl. "You are welcome to use the restroom in my room," he said, indicating
