Chapter 87
NATALIE I know I shouldn’t do this. I am supposed to stay strong against the seduction and the power of his body against mine. But the moment he throws me on the couch and hovers above me, his body pleasantly pressing down on mine, the rational mind says goodbye to me as always. His lips find mine instantly. I moan, scratching his scalp with my nails, earning a few groans against my mouth. It’s all too hurried. His lips suck on mine one moment and the next moment, he is dominantly exploring every corner of my mouth with his warm and soft tongue. My legs wrap around his waist, urging me to grind against me, to provide me the relief I am dying to have. All the senses are heightened. I can feel his hands running down my body so deliciously now. The sparks follow wherever we touch, making me gasp and pull him impossibly closer to me. “ Fuck. ” Ryker detaches our lips and lets out a hot breath. My hands leave his hair and reach out to his pant to get rid of it. “ I want you. Right

NATALIE I come back after washing myself and find Ryker lying dead on the couch. His right arm is hanging by the edge while the other one is draped over his stomach. We had sex. I not—so accidentally marked him. He got angry and without saying a word, rushed to get a bath while I stayed here feeling proud of myself for the very first time in my life. Then, he came back and slumped down here. The day has turned into night, yet he is still lying in the same position, his eyes staring at the ceiling. ‘ He is sulking. ’ Nyla snickers in my mind to my surprise. ‘ Oh yeah. I bet he only expected to have sex but his lack of control over his pp got him marked instead. ’ I chime, almost laughing out evilly. “ How long are you going to stay like this? ” I trot to him and plump close to his feet. Ryke doesn’t pay me any attention and continues to stare at the ceiling, his eyes comically narrowed. A grin tugs the corner of my lips. My eyes scan his bare upper body and lower down to his s

RYKER“ You hate me? ” Little Miss Pesky utters, disbelief dripping from her tone.“ No, Luna. ” Jake replies fiercely.“ Do you hate her, Jake? ” I question.He faces me and forgets Natalie is standing beside me for a moment when he answers. “ Yes, Alpha. ”“ You just said you don’t hate me! ” Natalie huffs, shaking her head from side to side. “ I annoyed you. Yes. But it’s not enough to hate me. ”“ As you say, Luna. ” Jake nods his head in agreement.“ Is it not a good enough reason to hate someone Jake? Tell her she gets on your nerves with her bratty attitude. ” I cock an eyebrow, enjoying her reaction.“ It’s a good enough reason, Alpha. ” The troubled warrior says.“ You just said you don’t hate me! I can’t believe this. ” Natalie throws her hand in the air, getting irritated.“ Yes, Luna. ” Jake turns to her again.Little trouble here doesn’t know this yet but she has really gotten on everyone’s nerves. Especially Jake and Luke are really irritated by her — The two warriors pr

RYKER A werewolf council fucker wanting to hold two votes and wanting to control two elements. At the same time, a council asshole involved in the murder of my mate. This all makes sense now. A bigger plan is in motion. Probably a scheme to bring back the original hierarchy where a King ruled all the werewolf community — King Fredrick of the werewolf council whose reign came to an end when Evangelina chose a human life over all the power. She started the movement, asking for his dismissal because he had tried killing her lover. All the other three originals sided with her and he was not a King anymore. He was normal like the rest of the originals — respected but not feared or bowed to. If my theory is correct, then the one who is trying to become King can be challenged by an Alpha for his position. This time, the asshole wants to make sure no one stands against him like they did against Fredrick. Getting rid of all the powerful enemies right when Natalie was supposed to shift w

NATALIE It’s been a month since I started training with Jake. The first step of this program was to get beaten—a lot and learn to anticipate blows, moves. It took me a week to start blocking them or dodging. Then we were onto the next level where I was supposed to hit back. It’s been three weeks and I haven’t done that even once. It seems like all the training I received previously was of no use against a real opponent. But, I believe I am getting better at this now. I still haven’t hit Jake, I know, but I have defended myself better than ever before. In the morning, I trained, exercised, ate breakfast. During the rest of the day, I learned a lot of things about the pack from the other guard Luke. In the night, Ryke often took me to the forest so I can shift back and forth and get a hang of my abilities. I believe I can control when to not start burning or burn things around me but when I feel too much, I can’t help but let the energy escape from my body. The life energy I have

NATALIE“ What’s wrong? ” I ask Jake who has locked the main door and is now standing by it, his hands crossed in front of him.“ Nothing, Luna. ” His eyes flicker across the living room before landing over me.This is getting on my nerves now. He always stands outside and never locks the door from inside.“ Jake. Tell me. ” I sigh, getting up from the couch.I don’t know why but I have a bad feeling about this whole thing. Ryke’s presence in North Forest Pack is making me even more restless.I know he gave the Alpha position to one of his friends whom I never met. The thing I don’t understand is why did he go there and why did he look so serious when he left?“ It’s nothing Luna. Please sit down and wait until Alpha comes back. ” Jake answers blandly.I plop down on the couch, my gaze travelling towards the living room’s glass wall. It’s been hours since he left and he is still not back. A movement near the Beta’s house catches my attention. Squinting my eyes, I focus on the three s

NATALIE My eyes trail off to the off—white wolf running alongside a grey wolf. A line begins to form, a good side which helps me recognise who is who. I won’t cause anymore accidents. Clenching my hands into fists, I walk forth, determined to do what I never thought I ever will. The group of pack warriors, give me way and let me walk to the front, facing the rogues. They all have oddly stopped when they saw the pack members falling back and coming into a defensive formation. Rogues don’t have such detailed thoughts. They can’t think so straight. It’s absurd that they even have one huge wolf standing at the front, snorting down at me. An Alpha. An even absurd sight to see. It’s almost like they are a pack, a hierarchical pack. But, the foul smell hanging in the air gives away their identity. When I stop in front of the whole shifted wolf army of the pack, the supposed rogue Alpha shifts back to his human form. I breathe in through my nose and unclench my hands. “ It’s good y

RYKER“ Send all the injured to the infirmary. ” I tell Zio, staring down at Anne who fainted after bearing the pain for a while.“ Sure, Alpha. ” It was so hard to get rid of the fire burning her skin. But the moment Natalie ran away, the fire died on its own. And Anne lost consciousness.“ You are going to be fine. ” Her other friend pats Anne’s hand, whispering to her while tears roll down her cheeks.My eyes are drawn to Anne’s face. Her cheeks are burned so bad. The skin has peeled off, leaving nothing but exposed flesh and blood. The other friend’s skin didn’t catch fire when her clothes caught fire last time. So, she is unaware of the fact that the wounds barely heal. Even after healing, the nasty scars remain behind—a constant reminder of what happened.The state Anne is in, makes me doubt that she will stay alive enough to feel horrified about the marks. She is almost dead, barely holding on to the frail thread of life. The pack members help Zio take everyone to the infirm
