RAYHAN The journey to my cousin’s pack was a two-hour drive, and Raihana pleaded that she wanted Delsanra in the back with her. Which was fine as I knew Chris and her were having some issues, which I really needed to get to the bottom of. It also sucked that I couldn’t have my mate close, but she was sitting in the seat behind me and often reached over to give me a kiss or a touch. Goddess, if she knew how good her touch was… My mind wandered back to Delsanra in the bathroom. The energy that swirled around her was different. It wasn’t a witch’s ability. I knew the difference, but I didn’t want to mention it to her, not when she was worried already. It got me thinking about something that I wondered about often. She is darkness, she was born from darkness, the daughter of darkness. These comments followed her, but what did they even mean? There was something missing, and I had a feeling if we found out what the ‘darkness’ referred to, we would

CHRIS The tension between Raihana and me was so obvious. I was doing my best to keep my shit together, but it wasn’t easy, looking at her in that dress that wrapped perfectly around her figure, emphasising her every curve… not to mention that big ass of hers. Fuck, she was the hottest girl around, like a prize I wanted to unwrap and devour. I had tried… tried to call one of the pack she-wolves to keep me company, but I couldn’t even enjoy it, not when all I could think of was her. I needed to apologise for that night… Yet at the same time, I refused to. She grated on my nerves just as much as I wanted her wrapped around my dick. The worst part… I had to follow her and try not to look at that ass of hers. She had now gone to freshen up, and I was waiting across the hall. I took my phone out to see Lola’s message. ‘Have you told Ray yet? You need to before he finds out Chris, I am not going to be hiding your mess up from him.’ I frowned. Yeah, I

DELSANRA The following day, we found out that Chris had gone back to the pack. Maria had heard some of what had happened and told Chris to head home. Raihana had avoided Rayhan like the plague, and due to that, I didn’t get to see her much. Rayhan had taught me how to use the phone he had gotten me, so I was able to text her and she texted back so frequently that it kind of felt like she was right here anyway and she would text me to come to her room to get ready. She made sure I was all dolled up for every event, and when I wasn’t with Rayhan, she was next to me like a protective sister, keeping me away from all the she-wolves who were giving me looks. One thing that was no secret was that Rayhan was very sought after. On the day of the wedding, Rayhan had managed to pull Raihana into his arms, hugging her and apologising for his behaviour. After a good scolding, she had forgiven him, telling him it wasn’t her he needed to apologise to. I knew it threw him t

DELSANRA I could barely walk when we were done, and Rayhan was finding it incredibly amusing. The man was sexy and panty-wetting hot, but he was a tease. It had taken me at least an hour before I felt my legs were up to bearing my weight a little. I hated that I couldn’t tell him about Raihana’s dreams, but I had promised her… It was now time for dinner, we had showered and gotten dressed. I had opted for a sky-blue satin wrap dress with long cuffed balloon sleeves. I was about to put some tights on, but watching Rayhan’s eyes trail over my legs made me decide to simply put on some white heels instead. I pinned my hair back from the centre, making a small quiff like Raihana had shown me. We were now seated around the dining table, which was made out of actual marble! I could see the flecks of gold in it; elegant, modern, yet very glamourous. "The food is delicious." I said, eating some of the chicken. I was seated next to Rayhan, with Raihana

DELSANRA The following day, everything seemed to have changed. A deep sense of foreboding was twisting in my guts and I felt on edge. I could hear Maria's anguished cries and Papa Raf trying to calm her down. Although Rayhan couldn’t hear her through the walls, he knew something was wrong. I just told him his mom was upset. It hurt to hear the pain and anger she was feeling, yet at the same time, her pain seemed to outshine her anger. He had filled me in on the plans about us leaving. I was quickly packing, I think we all just needed a break from one another, especially with the Luna’s emotional state. While Rayhan had gone to handle some stuff, I quickly hurried to Raihana’s room. We needed to talk. "Come in." She said, I opened the door and stepped inside. I was instantly wrapped in a tight hug. "I'm so sorry, Del." "Don’t be." I said, smiling slightly. Looking around her room, I saw that it was a mess. She was packing, but unlike my one sui
