"Mhmm..." I pushed him off of me and rolled to the other side of the bed, giggling. My eyes fell on the clock striking at 10:17 in the morning, and I gasped. "Gosh, it's so late- Ah!" I squealed when he grabbed my hips and pulled me back to him, preparing for another round. I stopped him, placing my palm on his chest and sitting up. A sting in between my legs made me gasp. "Oh no. Hades, I'm so sore." He chuckled, that deep, unrestrained sound soothing my soul, and pressed his lips on my head. "Sorry, love. Can't help it." I giggled again when his hand found its way down to my butt, massaging it. "We already did it three times since dawn. When are you gonna stop?" "Now that I have got a taste of you, never." His lips took mine in another impassioned kiss. I kissed back equally, telling him through it just how bad I craved him too. Then I pulled away and drew the sheets over me, crossing my legs. "Go now. You're getting too late for work. And me too."He smirked. "Say the magic w

Two weeks passed since we moved into this house. It was a ten minutes drive from the pack. Throughout the day while Hades worked, I'd spend my time either by visiting the pack or face buried deep inside books. Did I say this house had a library of its own? No? Oh well... prepare to be amazed because it was no small one or couple shelves library. No. It was a whole room starting from the ground reaching the top ceiling of the third floor. The shelves brimmed with so many books I was afraid if even an one-third of it fell, I'd be buried ten feet under. But of course, they wouldn't, because Hades had every possible safety mechanisms installed. Ladders with firm railings at both sides were set at every corner, and in the middle was the comfiest reading space. Though I preferred the armchair by the fireplace for it created an ambience more magical than velvety sofa beds. Nola and Iris kept me company the other times when I wasn't reading. But they weren't allowed here when Hades came b

"Gisele, let me handle this." "So you can let him off the hook?" "I'd never do that," Hades clipped. I stared at him. Maybe he wouldn't because as I had always heard, Hades took justice to a whole new level. He didn't even spare a rare hybrid for wronging one of his allies. Didn't care what the council had to say. "If he's guilty," he added. My teeth gritted. Maybe it was because he never punished a family member before cause when it came to family, even the great rulers fell weak. Turning away from him, I barged through the office door uncle Gordon worked in now. He had been staying in the pack since we arrived from Alaska and helping Hades operate the pack business while he had been recovering and spending more time with me. It felt like a blessing until now. I couldn't keep control of my anger as I stormed right to his desk and slammed my hands on it. "You. You killed my father." He looked up, eyes widening for a brief moment, then they hardened. "Gisella," Hades appeare

I sat at the hospital bed anxiously watching Hades and the pack doctor talking between themselves. I couldn't fathom what gotten into Hades all of a sudden. The whole way back home he had been so paranoid even the smallest sounds or movements around got him unduly worked up, and so overly protective even the smallest of road bumps made his free hand shot out to shield me. I had asked him, but he refused to answer before the doctor checked. I told him I was fine. It was only the weakness from not eating enough, but he wouldn't budge. He even made sure half of the nurses from the hospital come aid me like I was some patient with serious illness. My perturbation palliated a little when Bree barged into the private chamber. "Bree," I relieved. Greeting the Alpha, she rushed to me. "Luna, I heard what happened. Are you hurt?" I shook my head. "No, I'm not. But Hades is acting weird I don't understand why. Do you know anything?" She sent me an apologetic smile. "I'm having my hunches,

Once Garett called off the celebration, the guests started departing with confusion and disappointment washing off the earlier enjoyment from their faces. Some even looked annoyed, but of course they knew better than to complain. I, on the other hand, felt like there was a stress attack swirling deep inside me, but I couldn't freak out now. I had to think about my child. I had to keep it from any kind of harm's way. And when Nola and Iris ran my way, the panic somewhat alleviated from my core. "What happened?" Iris asked. "Are you feeling alright, darling?" Nola followed. "I'm fine," I replied, taking deep breaths to calm my nerves. "I think they caught Alpha Ryan." Nola gasped while Iris sent me a baffled look. "Who's that?" "An alpha who attacked our pack a while back. He even tried to hurt Gisella," Nola explained.Iris' eyes rounded, and she looked around, her gaze alert. "Luna," Wyett and the two other bodyguards stepped closer, "We should go. Alpha asked to take you back
