AMELIA’S P.O.VI recognized the woman instantly. Her sharp eyes were not something I could ever forget. She was also one of the first people in this pack to be nice to me. She looked good for her age and she smiled softly when she realized that I had recognized her. The main reason I couldn’t forget her was because she said she knew my mother. I had planned to go back and ask her about it someday but life got the better of me.“I didn’t think I would ever see you here, Amelia,” she smiled then gestured for me to walk with her. “It has been a while since we last saw you and a lot has changed, you are with the Alpha now.”“He’s my mate,” I didn’t know why I was explaining myself to her but I knew I could trust her. My wolf assured me that she was kind so I followed her.She hummed. “So I heard, how does it feel being mated to an Alpha? I assume it isn’t as easy as one would think.”“It’s not,” I laughed softly. “But it’s Kaden and he is worth it, I guess. Where have you been since we la
KADEN’S P.O.VI never realized how hard it was to smother thoughts of murder until I knew another man wanted my mate. A part of me was furious that he would even think about it and I wanted nothing more than to storm into that pack and rip his head clean off his shoulders. I doubted Gregory would care but there was the little issue about him being mated to Gregory’s daughter. If anything happened to her, I knew Gregory was going to tear the world apart to kill whoever harmed her.The only thing that was keeping me sane was my promise to Amelia to trust her. I wanted to lose control, my wolf wanted to lose control but the knowledge that I would be hurting her by doing so was the only thing keeping me from making a drastic decision.“Kaden,” Amelia’s hand on my shoulder snapped me back to reality.After cleaning me up in the bathroom, she pulled me into the bedroom and made me lie in bed while she went to prepare something for me to eat. I loved whenever she cooked for me because it sho
AMELIA’S P.O.VI was practically floating in the air for the rest of the day. I was so terrified to tell him how I felt and instead of the rejection I expected to be met with, he had repeated the words back to me. It felt like things were finally aligning in my favor. I was with a man who I loved and loved me back. We spent the evening together just cuddling in bed and eating snacks. There wasn’t anything sexual about the way he held me, it was just intimate.I woke up the next morning to him shuffling around the room. When I glanced at the window, I saw that it was still dark outside. I sat up slowly glancing at the alarm clock as I did so and it read 4 a.m. my brows furrowed in confusion. Kaden had his back to me and it wasn’t until I cleared my throat that he turned to me.“Hey baby,” he whispered as he crossed the length of the room to kiss me. “You can go back to bed, it isn’t time to get up yet.”“Where are you going?”“There was a little disturbance at the border but don’t worr
AMELIA’S P.O.VAll the maids were gathered in the kitchen within minutes. I tried to tell Kaden that it wasn’t a big deal but he wasn’t having it. He was furious and I had a feeling that it had less to do with the food and more to do with the fact that he was already pissed. The maids were quaking in their shoes as they stared at the empty dishes that Kaden had lined up on the counter.“I need an answer,” his voice was deceptively soft. If you didn’t know him, you would think that he was of right mind but one look in his eyes would show you that Kaden was at his wits end. “Last time I checked, food doesn’t just up and disappear. Someone took it. The quicker I get answers, the quicker everyone else can leave.”No one dared to speak and I think that pissed him off even more because he slammed his hand against the counter. Even I jumped from the sound. I had never seen Kaden lose his cool like this. I could feel the pleading eyes of the maids on me begging me to calm him down but I could
AMELIA’S P.O.VKaden went from worried to confused to aroused in less than three seconds. One second he was opening his mouth presumably to scold me about locking the door and making him fret and the next, he was closing it and staring at me with dark eyes so black that I couldn’t make out his pupils. He reached out for me but I took a step back and gestured for him to come in. For once, Kaden didn’t protest. He just nodded and did as I had asked.I locked the door behind him and leaned against it. “How do I look? It was a new outfit and I just thought I should try it on. Do you like it?”“Like?” he scoffed, “I fucking love it. I would love it even more if you allowed me touch you in it. Where did you even get it?”“Clara got it for me,” I explained as I walked over to him.He wasted no time in grabbing my hips once I was close enough to him and he made a sound deep in his throat that was a mix between a groan and a moan. “Tell Clara I’ll buy her whatever the fuck she wants.”“What if
KADEN’S P.O.VThere was nothing better than waking up to Amelia’s body pressed flush against mine. By the time we were done last night, she was too exhausted to move and I enjoyed the feel of her skin flush against mine so I made no efforts to give her anything to wear. It was both a blessing and a curse because I woke up to her legs slung over my hips and my cock nestled right against her folds. She was breathing softly but that didn’t stop me from hardening. The action had her squirming against me which did nothing to help the case.I muttered a curse under my breath and exhaled deeply through my nose in an attempt to calm myself. There was no need for me to be acting like a horny teenager when I was balls deep inside of her last night. For e brief moment, I understood people who went to drugs, I understood the need for the high because she was like a high and I already wanted my next fix. As I stared at her delicate features I couldn’t help but realize just how perfect she was for
AMELIA’S P.O.VI waited the entire day for Kaden to return from whatever it is that dragged him away. I tried not to worry much about him because I knew that he could handle himself. As I thought about him, i couldn’t help but think back on the kiss he had given me in the car. My cheeks heated up each time and I crossed my legs but the ache between them never lessened. I was swamped in so much work that I barely had the time to think about it until evening when Caleb came to take me home.“Where did he go?” I had asked and he shrugged. “I’m surprised that he didn’t tell you either.”“Kaden doesn’t always tell me about what he does, he’s a very busy man.”“When do you think he will be back?”“Honestly, I don’t know but one thing I do know is that he can’t stay away from you. Whether that is a good or a bad thing is yet to be determined. He will be back soon, don’t worry. You won’t be alone in that large house for long.”For some reason, I believed him. I didn’t know whether it was bec
AMELIA’S P.O.VThankfully, we didn’t end up getting in trouble for being late to class. It earned us some dirty looks from students that we were let off the hook for something the others would have been punished for but it was not my fault that the teachers chose to give me extra attention and privileges.School ended relatively quickly much to my disappointment because it meant I was going to have to sit home alone and wait for Kaden. I wasn’t eager to leave and I wanted to follow Serena home but she had work to attend to and that meant I was well and truly alone. It was disappointing to say the least because although I was used to the silence, I had come to appreciate the company that my friends gave to me.I made lunch for myself and some for Kaden although I knew he wouldn’t be back home in time to eat it before it got cold. It didn’t stop me from waiting up for him however. I did everything I knew to do, I did my home work and I even cleaned but it was almost as if time was taunt
