RYKER“ Do you believe it? ” Zero’s voice sounds from the speaker of my phone.I rub my thumb across the bloody surface of the pendant, not answering him for a moment.“ She was lying. ” I place the pendant on the desk and lean back, still staring at it.“ Yes. The witch was lying. You and I…both know…no potion used to suppress a vampire’s thirst for blood can work on hybrids. It’s impossible that the witch didn’t know that. ” He sighs, probably rubbing his temples on the other side. “ Love potion then? ” I detach my gaze from the pendant and stare at the ceiling instead. Was I really fooled by a fucking love potion? It’s hard to stomach, it’s even harder to admit. “ The pendant has something in it. I can feel it. I feel myself getting pulled in different directions. As long as I am close to Natalie, I am my usual self but when I…” I can’t say it. I know, I don’t love Britney.The whole thing was about being mates with her. And if she had really fooled me with a love potion, then th

NATALIEHis lips taste the same, silky, smooth, intoxicating. He kisses me slowly, unlike the rushed passion he always shows. Goddess, it feels good when he takes his time, his lips savoring mine thoroughly.Detaching his lips from mine softly, he stares at me before picking me up bridal style and walking towards the stairs. I swallow my saliva, smiling at his side profile like an idiot.He doesn’t seem to be in much hurry today.After getting to the room, he sits me down on the bed and stands up, towering over me. Craning my neck back, I blink at him, my cheeks heating up.He hooks his fingers under his shirt, pulling it over his head and then dropping it down on the floor. I watch his delectable tattooed muscles flex. Our eyes meet, his ocean the lightest of shades and mine, perhaps, shimmering. Giddiness claims my stomach, making me slip back into the bed, almost hitting my head on the headboard.Ryker climbs the bed and pulls me down by my ankle, making me lie under him.His lips

NATALIE The constant silence and my content heart is about to make me burst. I feel so full that emotions want to overflow.He loves me like crazy. I want to squeal like a teenager just by recalling what he said and how he made love to me. For the first time, sex felt more than physical intimacy. It held a meaning.“ Ryke... ” I call out to him, breaking the spell of silence after some time.“ Hmmm... ” He hums, nuzzling his nose in my hair, taking in my scent mingled with his.“ When are you going to initiate me in the pack? ” I ask, frowning.He pauses, breathes, leans his head back. His arms stay around my waist, keeping my body pressed into his muscled one.“ I have some things I need to do before that. ” He sighs.I shift towards him, wanting to see his face when talking to him. He lets me move and when I settle in, his arms are back around me.“ What things? I want to become your Luna and handle the pack as soon as possible. I don’t want to delay it. ” I pout.He grins, sliding

ANNEIn the dimmed hall, I can easily see him moving towards the main door. Walking forward, I block his path.“ Going somewhere? ” I sneer, my eyes burning with the intensity of anger.He took me out of there without making many efforts and dumped me back in this damned pack house of the North Forest Pack. For the first time in my life, I couldn’t fight back as well as I think I can do.“ Don’t roam around at night. ” Instead of answering me, he suggests in the usual dead tone.‘ Remember our cause. ’ My wolf whispers.Rolling my shoulders, I calm myself down or more like push the anger back. “ The witch was lying. Believe me. And do something. Natalie is in danger as long as that…that sneaky bitch is around her. ” I sigh.“ Ryker can take care of her. ” He blinks in the darkness.My eyes wander to the shadows clinging to him. It’s…kind of scary and when it comes to Zero, it’s unacceptable for me.Ignore it. I grit my teeth, mentally prepping myself.“ Ryker is under the spell. ” I

NATALIEStubborn Evil Jerk!“ Rykerrr… ” I whine, giving in and turning to face him after two minutes. “ Tell meee. ”“ Ask nicely. ” He turns to me, smirking.I suck in a frustrated breath, glaring at him. “ Please. ” He puckers his lips out, pretending to think. My eyes lower to his abs in irritation. “ You said no round two. ” He reminds me of the words I uttered not more than five minutes ago.“ You won’t tell me? ” I drag my eyes up to his.“ Do you really want to know? ” The lustful look falters, a serious one clouding his ocean globes.I nod my head reluctantly, having a bad feeling about this one. Ryker sighs, coming close and resting his head on my pillow.“ When I was with the witch, I got the chance to know about a lot of supernatural creatures, rituals performed in the past, secrets no one but only a few people knew about… ” He says, his eyes shining with mischief.“ So I searched for the only thing I was interested in. ” He smiles all of a sudden.I blink, leaning clos

NATALIE“ You want to sleep? ” Ryker scoffs from behind me.I grin, keeping my eyes closed. “ Yes. ”“ Okay. ” He sighs.The grin wipes off my lips as I get suspicious of his simple ‘okay’. The next moment, his hand is sneaking to my sides. I giggle, twisting around as he starts tickling.“ R—Ryker! Please! ” I scream through the bubbles of laughter.He pauses, his chest vibrating against my back. “ You still want to sleep? ”I sniff, leaning back against him before shaking my head. My giggles turn into a wide smile as I glance at his smirking face from over my shoulder. “ You are so mean. ” “ Am I? ” His hands rest over my stomach.I nod my head, watching the amusement shining in his eyes. Tilting my head, I let my lips meet his plump ones.His hands slide down my side, to my thighs, stroking my skin gently. I detach my lips from his and turn my head back.He pushes my hair away from the nape, planting an open mouth kiss on the mate mark. I shudder in his arms, before sighing softly
Chapter 127
NATALIEAll the way back to the house, I continue to look outside and find it hard to speak a word to Jake. Luciana kept convincing me to get an ultrasound scan but I refused. I don’t know if she can detect the baby’s identity by conducting some any other tests or scans. It’s safe for me to let her give me the diet plan, the necessary supplements and go home with them.She reminded me to inform Ryker about my pregnancy as soon as possible even when I was on my way out of her office. For a moment, I froze, turned, stared, and felt cold again. Am I supposed to tell him I am pregnant and then let him know that it’s complicated? He lost one child before…what will he feel when he gets to know even the birth of this child is threatened?Tears prick my eyes as the car rolls into the driveway. Closing my eyes, I push the tears back and breathe in.With this connection between us now, I can always tell where Ryker is. The bond pulls me to him, letting me know he is close, possibly at Zio’s h

NATALIE“ I am telling you. It’s a whole fucking plan and you almost screwed it by going there unannounced. ” Anne huffs, folding her arms over her chest.Right as I sprinted out of Zio’s house, I took Jake’s cell phone and called Anne. I cried and told her that I fucked up, once again and she needs to come down here and let me know about some antidote shit.To my surprise, she told me she was already at Ryker’s office. I didn’t waste a moment thinking why she was there, to begin with, and rushed here.Now, she is telling me that Ryker knows about the potion already and he planned something which I almost ruined.“ Plan? My ass! He almost rejected me! ” I shriek, restlessly tapping my foot on the floor.“ Your bond with him wouldn’t have broken even if he rejected you. You need to reject him too for the mate mark to disappear. ” She rolls her eyes while pacing in the office in nothing but a black oversized shirt covering her slender frame.I shake my head, wiping my wet cheeks for the
