Jaclyn's POV:"Natash, I'm done," I said, habitually scanning Natash Yael, only to suddenly realize I was nearly transparent to her now. It seemed all my thoughts were laid bare, a fact even I hadn't fully grasped.I reached for the paper in her hand, densely packed with names, igniting a surge of jealousy within me. I glanced at the first few, unable to bear the rest.Carefully observing Natash Yael's expression, I watched as her face turned from white to black, inwardly cursing my luck. Without hesitation, I reached out and embraced her. "Luna, you have to keep your word. You said if I came clean, you'd let me rest inside."She gave me a sideways glance. "I remember saying we could negotiate other things, and you said you'd confessed everything, but I have to verify. So, not tonight." With that, she deftly freed herself from my embrace, retreated, and with a clang, shut the door and locked it.I frowned at the door, gritting my teeth. It felt like if I had an axe, I could just break
Natasha's POVJaclyn Dills' lips finally released mine, satisfied. They trailed down from the corner of my lips, heavy and restrained breaths bursting out, hot against my ear. I couldn't help but shiver, the kind of shiver that I couldn't control, spreading from my ear through the wandering hands, reaching every inch of my body, making me both comfortable and restless. A barely audible murmur escaped from my lips, mingling in the air, indescribably tender, ambiguous, and sensual.He had indeed held back too much, with no intention for much foreplay. His large hands slid down directly to the point, feeling my wetness, and without hesitation, he entered that long-awaited tight warmth, causing me to pause momentarily.Before I could adjust to the sudden expansion and pain, I was drawn into a frenzy of uncontrollable frequency.Waves of emotion surged, overwhelming reason, overwhelming everything, leaving only the timeless rhythm floating in passion. Casting aside all concerns, there was
Jaclyn's POVWinter had arrived, bringing with it the first snowfall, and Annelie arrived with Dr. Mike. Annelie was five months pregnant, yet she didn't look the slightest bit chubby; one wouldn't even notice she was pregnant without careful observation. She moved swiftly, while Dr. Mike by her side always seemed nervous. Whenever Annelie made a slight movement, he would immediately follow, almost like a clingy puppy.Annelie often teased him, saying he was like a little puppy following her around. Whenever she said so, Dr. Mike would gently look at her, a hint of indulgent smile playing on his lips, which deeply touched Natash Yael.After the four of us had dinner at a famous restaurant in town, Annelie and Dr. Mike returned to the hotel. Dr. Mike had an early meeting the next morning; he was on a three-day business trip to the Red Valley Pack. Worried that Annelie would feel lonely alone, he deliberately brought her along.Watching their car gradually disappearing, Natash couldn't
Natasha's POVThe next day, I didn't accompany Jaclyn Dills back to the illustrious Dills family pack. Annelie called to tell me about a college reunion gathering, and since she was at the Red Valley Pack, I decided to join her.I used to rarely attend these kinds of reunions, but now that I had nothing else to do all day, going once wouldn't hurt, especially since I needed to be there for Annelie, being pregnant and all.The reunion was lively, albeit marred by one female classmate who had a bit too much to drink. She latched onto me, rambling about her failed marriage, and even pulled out her divorce papers from her purse, waving them around.I didn't pay much attention to her tragic tale, instead, I stared straight at the divorce papers, comparing them to mine. I took them over and examined them closely, "Is this how they're supposed to look?"Annelie beside me tapped my forehead, "Are you going senile from being pregnant? That's how divorce agreements are these days." My mind race
Jaclyn's POVAs soon as I walked in, I noticed that the house was unusually quiet. There was no sound of children playing, nor any sign of Natasha. It felt strange.Suddenly, I remembered Natasha telling me in the morning that she was going to dance class and then out with some friends she met there. She dropped off the kids at the pack territory because the elders had called yesterday saying they missed them. So, today, I was alone at home.I loosened my tie and sat on the couch, feeling somewhat resentful. I had spoiled Natasha. Initially, I encouraged her to take up dancing to deter her from going back to work. Ballet was her forte, but she chose to learn other dances where female students outnumbered males. Even if there were a couple of guys, they were probably effeminate, and Natasha was safe with them.At least it was better than her attending yoga classes and being eyed by that Tommy Fox. But just after a few months of dancing, she started distancing herself from me, acting in
Natasha's POVMy mind raced through a few twists and turns, and I reached out, grabbing hold of his shirt hem, and pouted while blinking innocently, "Mate, can't I just say I'm sorry?" It was my go-to move when dealing with Jaclyn Dills.Sure enough, Jaclyn Dills turned around, sitting on the edge of the bathtub, "What are you sorry for?"I hurriedly replied earnestly, "I shouldn't have gone to the nightclub with my friends." And what else? Jaclyn Dills' voice softened a bit.I blinked rapidly, "And I shouldn't have stayed out past ten.""And what else?""And... umm..." I racked my brain for a while but couldn't come up with anything.Jaclyn Dills' gaze slid from my face to my body, and his tone darkened, "Where did you get this outfit? I don't remember buying you anything like this. Do you know how ridiculous you look, prancing around on stage in that?""It's not prancing, it's dancing."Jaclyn Dills pursed his lips, "If this is the kind of dancing you're learning, starting tomorrow,
Tommy's POVThe day I first met Natash Yael is forever etched in my heart. Her clear little face, those calm yet stubborn eyes, seemed to become the most profound imprint of my life. As years passed and time weathered, the memory of her only grew stronger.Love, viewed from the rational lens of science, is merely a biological program, a culmination of hormonal effects and chemical reactions. The initial ardor of romance tends to fade with time spent together, even to the point of complete dissolution after a decade.Though my time with Natash Yael amounted to less than a year, I never forgot her in the nearly fifteen years apart. Despite nothing ever happening between us, she became the singular regret I couldn't shake from my romantic history.Longing compelled me to decide to return home. Luckily, fate smiled upon us, and we reunited as I had hoped. However, I had already forfeited the right and position to love her.Jaclyn Dills will never know how envious I am of him. There was ev
Jaclyn's POVOne evening, after Luna and I had just finished a round of playfulness, lying in bed catching our breath, Natash, who had just regained her composure, complained discontentedly, "Jaclyn, why are you always on top? Didn't we agree that I would be on top this time?"I innocently caressed Luna, saying, "Didn't I let you be on top for the first half just now? You seemed to be enjoying it, telling your mate to go harder, to speed up for Luna. How quickly you forget."Natash blushed, "Whether I'm on top or you move, what's the difference when you're on top of me?" I blinked, then rolled over to pin Natash beneath me, leaning down to give her a playful nip before smoothly sliding inside her. "Hmm," Natash murmured.Leaning close to Natash's ear, I lightly nibbled and said with a mischievous tone, "Luna, your mate will tell you the difference now. When you're beneath, I can support you here, making it easier." As I spoke, my hand reached between Natash's legs, parting them forcef
