Andrea’s POVMy very first kisses and I thank the goddess with my whole heart that it was with Alec.I can never imagine feeling as pleasured as I did right now if I kissed anyone else.It was him.It was always meant to be him.My lips were meant to be captured by his only. My body responded to his touches, melted against him, and begged me to touch him back.But I didn’t.Despite how much he ignited a lot of desire inside me with those kisses we just shared, I couldn’t bring myself to go further than that.I never imagined today would be the day we kiss because of everything that happened since this morning.Because of the ultimate betrayal I discovered just a few hours ago that made me lose myself and almost killed me from the inside.But he chose the perfect moment to kiss me because those kisses were able to restore my soul and light it up like a fourth of July firework.If I had doubts about me and Alec accepting each other after everything that happened, those doubts were total

Mila’s POV“How was your day? You look really happy” Ryan said observingly.We were having dinner at our own place and since Ryan eats faster than me, he finished his plate and started watching me with fascination, which made me both giddy and nervous at the same time.It was like after we marked each other, every emotion we felt got heightened. Our likeness for each other started to turn into love, our attraction to each other changed into lust and desire. It was hard to keep our hands off each other but I was always the one to back off first because I was still afraid I might get triggered if we had sex.“I hung out with Andy, I took her on a tour around the pack and we spent the day together talking and having fun. It was a great day” I said with a soft smile on my face.“I’m finally glad she managed to work things out with Alec. He was really a mess the last few days because she wouldn’t talk to him anymore. I knew from the beginning that she had goodness in her, I saw it the very

Ryan’s POVShe was crying heartily and it caused my heart to break more than it already was.I was mad at her for thinking that after everything we shared in the past week, I would never even think about hurting her.And because I was deeply hurt and angry myself, I took a method to prove my intentions for her that wasn’t exactly the best but turned out to be really effective.I promised myself to wait for her to be ready for me to touch her intimately, but I was too angry and scared of losing her, I had no other way to show her that she can never feel pain when she is with me.“Do something!” my wolf Sword urged me impatiently to stop her crying because he can’t take her pain anymore.“I love you too, with everything I have. I will always love you Mila” I said soothingly, wiping her tears away delicately.It did the trick, she stopped sobbing and gazed at me with a wide, innocent look that made me melt on the inside. I could feel how much she longed for this moment, for someone to lo

Andrea’s POV“You look different” I said to Mila curiously as we walked through the store trying to buy clothes for both of us.We met after breakfast because Ryan and Alec both had important pack business to attend to, so I mind linked Mila to come with me to explore the pack for the first time and buy some new clothes per Alec’s suggestion.I wasn’t a shopping addict or anything but that was probably because I never had enough money to go shopping in the first place. But I found the activity quite entertaining and was a good approach to pass the time.Why did I need to pass the time you ask?Because every second I spend away from Alec makes me miss him more. He became the center of my world in just a few days of fully accepting the bond and I will be confident enough to say that he feels the same way if not more considering how every time we meet after spending some time apart, his blue eyes soften with so much love, it makes my heart stutter and my breath catch. Aside from that, th

Alec’s POVI sat at the head of the meeting table with Andy in my arms, her arms wrapped around my neck and her face buried against the side of my neck.She was still feeling a mixture of anxiousness and insecurity both from the upcoming battle and from being jealous by Davina.I printed soft kisses on her cheek softly as we waited for the portal to appear.Adrian was sitting on my left side with Rhea sitting next to him, while Ryan and Mila were on my right side.I noticed there was one other person missing from the meeting and I turned my head towards Adrian and asked him casually “Derek won’t join us?”He shook his head, speaking firmly “I want him to stay here with the ladies and keep them company until we come back” then followed through the mind link to keep Andy from hearing the real reason “We can’t all go and leave the packs exposed without any figure of authority…. Just in case something happens”I nodded curtly without looking at him and remained quiet after that.A few min
