||Claire||I woke up to a scrumptious aroma coming into the room from the kitchen. I sat on the bed and stretched my legs on the bed and arms in the air. I felt contented and satisfied.I rolled out of the bed into the bathroom with a huge smile on my face. I brushed my teeth and took a long soapy bath. Humming my favorite song from the 90s ‘All My Life’ by K-CI and Jojo.It was a little over 30 minutes when I dried myself and tugged on a floral print dress Vivian packed for me. I slipped on my slippers and realized my feet were fully healed. I headed down, taking the stairs, and I was graced with a beautiful heartwarming sight before I descended the last stair.Clayton and Calvin were cooking in the kitchen drenched in flour as they chased after each other with what I think was our breakfast. Warmth crept into my chest and a smile broadened on my face as I folded my arms and leaned at the entrance watching the beautiful show playing in front of me.“Good morning guys,”“Good morning
||Claire||The image of him made juices soak in my pants and I prayed to the goddess that Clayton would not smell my arousal in the air.But my prayers did not reach the mood goddess in time as Clay leaned over and placed his lips next to my ears before he murmured.“I can smell you, little gem.” he brushed his lips against my ear and a shiver ran through me. I gasped and shoved him away from me as my face turned red and goosebumps appeared all over my skin.Clayton roared with laughter before pulling me into his chest and embracing me tightly.“It's alright, little gem. Don't feel embarrassed. You have no idea how happy it makes me to see how affected I make you and how easily your body responds to my words and touch. This little body of yours is mine to touch. Mine to kiss and mine to fuck until you can’t walk straight.” he growled lowly with so much possessiveness in his voice and I could feel his wolf's deep baritone mixed with his.I almost came undone at the tone of their voice
||Claire||“I have found my second chance mate,” I said smoothly as quickly as possible.My parent gasped and their eyes popped out of their eye sockets.Silence followed and my heart pounded against my ribcage. Thinking the news had scared my parent into muteness.They were both stunned to the point that they didn't move a muscle.“Mom, Dad are you still breathing or do I need to call the doctor?” I asked, agitated.“Claire, tell us, who is he?” my mom queried, after taking in a long airy breath.I swallowed. I did not want them to die of heart attack when they found out I was mated to the Alpha prince so I stuck to his name and his Alpha title.“Alpha Clayton,” I mumbled as low as I could muster.“ANOTHER ALPHA???” my dad roared and got up to his feet. “Hell NO! I'm not going to allow another asshole to destroy my daughter's life. One Stupid Alpha is enough in this lifetime.” my dad scowled.“Don't you think that is my decision to make, Dad?” I said dryly.“Like hell it is,” he sh
||Claire||Clayton was true to his words. He visited the shop and my apartment every single day and the week fled in a blur. An exhausting blissful blur. From the moment I woke up to the moment my head hit my pillow. The days were filled with baking and serving all the time. And my evenings were spent with Calvin; catching up on his day at dinner and reading his favorite kids' book to him before bed.Also, Clayton was coming by to enjoy our company. We have begun to understand each other more and the level of understanding I had with him in the past few days was more than I had with Alan.My mom however, texted and called occasionally during the week. She couldn't shut up about Clayton. She kept asking questions about my mate and to shut her up, I told her about our upcoming date.Today was Friday and also our date night. Vivian and I drove back to our apartment and strolled into the room where the nanny was with the kids.Vivi and Trixie showered while I waited in the living room wi
||Claire||“Okay, I will be your informant just this once. So try and keep up with the celebrity gossip.”I nodded.“Well, where do I begin.” he went silent for a bit then started.” My parents live close to the forest where you were attacked. I was visiting them when I heard you scream. It is also the location of the Moonstone old pack house. Some of the pack members still reside there. My favorite person was my grandfather. The former Alpha king, Gerald Wolke, and my least favorite is my cousin, Wyatt. The now Alpha of the Dark Moon pack. Who is set out to destroy me and whatever I love.” he chuckled at his own comment and I wondered why his cousin wanted to destroy him.“Maybe out of jealousy,” Hazel suggested and I nodded in agreement.That could be the only reason for families to turn against each other.“But after my grandfather's death, I look more to my father. My dad is a hard man, shows little to no emotions but he is a good father and I have no complaints against him.”“What
||Claire||I was up by 5 in the morning, I changed into workout clothes and packed a few changing clothes for Calvin and me before I made my way towards the door with Calvin sleeping heavily in my arms. I was meeting up with Clayton for an early morning run since we wanted my wolf and his Lycan to spend some quality time together.“ I can’t believe I let you talk me into this.“ Bredon said as he walked towards me and carried Calvin from my chest.“Good morning to you too, Bredon,“ I rolled my eyes. “It really didn’t take much to convince you into this. Suck it up!“‘ I smiled to myself thinking about all the tricks I used on Bredon, to get him to agree to be my chauffeur last night.So yesterday, after Clayton saw me to my door, he called for a chat after he arrived home and we discussed the time for the run and means of transportation.He had few businesses to attend to at the borders at dawn but he still wanted to forgo it and drive over to pick Calvin and I. But I couldn’t be a hi
||Claire||Adrenaline was pumping into my veins as I ran through the trees. Cool air rippled through my fur and I jumped over logs. I felt Havoc catching up to us in seconds so I became creative.I changed the direction running through a narrowed path, dodging and slipping through the tree with my small frame. This was to slow down Clayton just a little bit.I leaped into a clearing and came across a waterfall. It was beautiful and looked like another world in our world. I didn’t get the chance to admire it as Clayton appeared behind me and caught me in his strong arms.Before his body slumped into the grassy ground with me locked in his embrace and we rolled multiple times over the grass...With our bodies locked together, my mate leaned backward. Clayton’s eyes were embedded with apprehension as they bore into my brown one.“You okay, Claire?” he inquired. “Are you hurt?” The fear of me being hurt was present in his eyes. I wrapped my legs around his waist and rolled us over severa
||Claire||“ Let's go in. Our meeting has been long overdue.“Clayton exhaled hearing my reply.He visibly relaxed and nodded. Then he squeezed my hand in his but I could tell he wasn’t so sure about it. But then, he opened the door to his office with his left available hand.A drop-dead gorgeous, middle-aged woman of about 5’6 rushed towards us she was in a perfectly pressed green dress and a pair of stilettos.Her hair was auburn and her eyes were electric blue.Her face was heart-shaped and even at her age, I could see her gorgeous curvature and stunning long legs.Her beauty was incomparable. Her title as the queen of werewolves and Lycans suits her. She is exactly what I envisioned our queen to be.I almost stared myself down. I was nothing like her. She was a perfectionist and I was quite the opposite.She swayed her body gracefully striding towards us.“ Clayton, dear,” she reached out to my mate and took his large form into a hug.“What are you doing here mum?” Clay muttered i
