He leaves his fingers under my chin, but I still flinch as he places his other hand on my cheek. He then slides it around to the back of my neck. I let out a shaky breath as tingles run down from my neck and he closes the distance between us, kissing my lips. He then moves his other hand, wrapping it around my waist and pulling my body up tight against his as he deepens the kiss. I don't fight this time and allow my body to melt into his. I hesitantly lift my arms and wrap them around his neck as he tightens his hold on me and adds more dominance to his kiss. A wave of fear goes through me as he slides his hand down and then back up again but under the shirt this time. Just because I am giving myself to him, it doesn't mean I'm not scared. I have never done anything other than what Zachariah has done to me. He moves me backward until my back hits the doorframe leading back into the bedroom. I tense a little as I feel him pressed up against me. I then slowly slide my

I must have dozed off as when I opened my eyes, I was in the bed on my own. I smile as I stretch. The slight ache that goes through my body reminds me of what I had just done, what I had just allowed Zachariah to do. Now that he has had the pleasure of my body, I wonder how long he will want to use me before he decides to share me and then moves me on to another. I sigh and then move slowly off of the bed and find the shirt of Zachariah's I was wearing.I pull it on and then search the room until I find the bathroom. Once I know which door the bathroom is behind, I go back over to the bed and look around on the floor for the jeans I was wearing. When I find them, I pick them up and head back into the bathroom.I turn the water on, and while it warms, I remove the bandage from my arm. Once the water is warm, I step under the spray. I sigh as the heat seeps into my body. I wash my hair and then carefully wash my arm and between my legs, removing the blood from both.

I smile and look out at the woods, then back at him and then back at the woods as I ask, "Zachariah, can we go and do some training in the woods? After everything, I need some open space!" He growls and I return my eyes to his and then sigh, lowering my eyes again. I should have known everything would change once he fully owned my body. I move off of his lap and move to the railing and cross my arms over my chest as I lean on it, I snap, "So, Zachariah. How much is going to change now? Now that you have taken my virginity and broken me in... Are you going to share me as that beast wanted? Or are you going to lock me up in the bedroom and make me your personal sex slave? Maybe share me only with Raphael... Or are you just going to lock me inside the mansion, make me cook and clean? Make me learn my place and do as I am told?" He walks up behind me and wraps his arms around me, pulling me tight up against him as he growls. "Yasmine. Nothing is g

I look at him confused,"You see, when one of us finds our mate and marks them, the whole pack can feel the new connection that has been started. Normal mates can take as long as they need to complete the mating and then once both the mating and marking is complete, the connection is complete, and it makes not only the mated couple stronger but the entire pack as well. Now when an Alpha, Beta or Gamma marks his or her mate it has a really strong effect on the rest of the pack, so they usually tried to complete both the marking and mating as soon as possible or it can have a negative effect on the other members of the pack. Now when I marked you I started the connection of not only us being mates but of you being my pack's Luna. Everyone could feel that they had a Luna but because you had so much fight and then Valentino took you, making you scared of all of us. That fear and separation weakened the slight connection I had started with my mark. I then had to start again with earning yo

Raphael enters behind us but stands up against the wall just inside the door. I face Rania as Zachariah and Malik start to talk between them, and say,"Do you think the guys would allow us to take that walk around the castle?"She smiles and looks over at Malik and Zachariah. She then turns back to me as she gets to her feet. She holds out her hands and I take them. She pulls carefully, helping me stand. Once the pain has passed, I look over at Malik and Zachariah, who have stopped talking and are now watching us. Malik is the one to ask,"Sweetheart, where are you going?""I promised to take Yasmine on a tour of the castle...""After Thomas's reaction, I would like someone to go with you..."He seems to get a faraway look on his face for just a moment, and then he goes back to talking with Zachariah. A few moments later, there is a knock on the doorframe. I look over just as he speaks."Alpha? You wanted to see me?""Ahh, good Brett. I would like you to accompany Luna Rania and Luna
