JasmineBy the next day, Aeron resumed his guarding duties and behaved as if nothing had happened between us. He stood by the dining room door frame while Ivory and I ate. As usual, he smiled and engaged Ivory in conversation while ignoring me completely. However, there was a sinister darkness in his eyes that wasn't there before, or perhaps I had missed it and was only looking harder now. The annoying part of it all was my treacherous pussy that wouldn't stop clenching needily at the sight of him. The things he did to me in his bedroom rushed through my mind over and over again. Soon, I recoiled, grossed out, knowing I wasn't the only one he had touched like that and I wasn't the only one he had on his bed. Probably told all of them to leave after. The bastard. "I will be making rounds close to the border today at Riverdale. The Alpha of the place is aware," I announced after my meal, hoping he would complain, but he did not say a word."If we go there, Jas, we won't be home in ti
Jasmine I woke up in the middle of the night thirsty. I had passed out after Aeron brought me to bed. Sitting up in bed, images of the things we did flooded my mind. His dirty words and how he fucked my mouth. He was bold, brazen. He held nothing back, and I liked it. As demeaning as his words sounded, I liked it. I craved that kind of control. I wanted someone who would make all the bad decisions for me so I wouldn't have to blame myself, and Aeron was that kind of a man. One to take what he wanted unapologetically. Thinking about how he ate me on the couch made my pussy clench. I liked it. I hoped there would be more, but he will never know because I will never admit it. I got up to get water in the kitchen. Realising I had slept in the clothes I wore, I decided to strip down and covered my body with a bathrobe I found in the bathroom in my room before heading out. I wasn't happy Aeron did not lay next to me, but I wasn't offended either. I was beginning to believe he wasn
AeronI sat on the couch in the living room at the guest house in Riverdale to keep both of us safe. I wanted to keep watch because of the report on the rogue status of Riverdale. I dreaded some rogues stealing into the guest house in the dark of the night while we were deep in sleep and our guards down. So I sat on the couch. Her scent messed with my senses. The release she had given me, mixed with her scent, calmed my nerves. I tried to stay up for as long as possible, but soon, sleep won the battle, and I fell into its embrace. Little did I know it would be my biggest mistake. I was trapped in Pictoria again. Two weeks before, my grandfather signed us up to be scouts for the Mad King. They had come for Aunt Rukky. They wanted to gift her to the King, but they found me, Zarah, my sister, and our mother instead, and they took me. Everything that was done to me was replayed in that dream. The god of sleep and dream forced me to relive that nightmare. A nightmare a seven-year-o
Jasmine.I had spent the rest of the day crying. I was glad that Ivory was staying with our mother's parents in town. I needed the space. Aeron had twisted my mind and emotions to the point that I felt like giving up. How could he want me and then shut me out like that? It was unfair. I thought he didn't want me, that he saw me like a little girl, but then he did a one-eighty by doing all sorts of things to me, not to speak of his dirty mouth. I believed we had something. I believed he had finally opened up, only for him to shut me out again. Was I a toy to him? A thing for his amusement. Something he could tweak and try at will. I couldn't let this continue. No matter what the issue was, he had no reason not to let me in. If he cared as much as his actions and words implied, he wouldn't shut me out, knowing how it would get to me. I was mad, mad at the fact that I was at his mercy. I knew he wouldn't let me move on from him. I knew he meant his words, but I will try. I will t
Jasmine I woke up in an empty bed, the soft morning light filtering through the curtains, casting a warm glow on the room. The only reminder that I did not sleep alone was Aeron's woody scent lingering on my sheets. The mere thought of him sent a rush of excitement through me, making me blush as I stretched beneath the cosy covers. How did he manage to sneak into my room last night? It was like a fantasy come to life. Although Aeron didn't give me everything I wanted, there was something about the way he made me feel alive. The way he softened, even if just a bit, during our shared moments. He was a complicated man that much was clear, but there was a glimmer of hope that he might open up to me. As I rolled out of bed, my eyes fell upon a neatly folded note on my nightstand. A smile played on my lips, knowing he took the time to leave me a message. I unfolded the paper and read his words: "Princess, wear something nice; today will be yours." Those simple words sent my heart aflut
Jasmine After an hour, Grandma summoned me to the kitchen. Glancing back at the living room, Aeron patiently awaited my return. Eager to depart, I needed him to make the call and gracefully extract us from my sister's company. I loved Ivory, but the thought of her joining for the day and ruining our plans didn't sit well with me. “Have you two hit it off already?” Grandma inquired as I entered the kitchen. Stunned by her perceptiveness, I stood there, caught off guard. She laughed and pulled me close. “You've been looking at him as if he holds your world, Jasmine,” she noted, and I absentmindedly touched my face, realising I had been more obvious than intended. “It's okay. We can't hide our heart's desires. Our eyes tend to give it away. He looks at you the same way. You two have been exchanging those looks for a while. Gabriel and I have been waiting for the news,” she said, her words sinking in as a mix of surprise and realisation crossed my face. “I... I...” I stammered, but sh
Aeron Planning to spend the entire day with Jasmine was a bold step. It was my way of moving forward with what we have. I wasn't sure if it was the right move or if it was advisable, but I knew I would not rest until I followed my heart. Jasmine paid attention when I told her red was my favourite colour. Seeing her red lace underwear in the warehouse office drove me completely insane. I might have taken her on the spot, but there was no rush in things. I had planned the day, and I hoped to follow through. She had also been very nice and peaceful all morning; I guess the tension between us was why she lashed out most of the time. When Uncle Yusuf linked me to inform me of the shipment. I was angry because I didn't plan to work that day. Nonetheless, it needed inspection, precisely what I was doing now in the warehouse. I had left Jasmine in the office and promised her I wouldn't be long, but seeing the ammunition crates, I doubted if I could keep the promise. "Let's skip this shit
Aeron Talk about cock-blocking. I was mad about Leonard's timing. I was really hoping to get into things with Jasmine. I needed to dismiss the fucker now. I was glad I hadn't taken her to my room to see the surprise I had laid out. I hoped Julia had followed my instructions and fixed the place up. I stepped away from Jasmine, and she looked at me with longing and disappointment. She was feeling exactly the same way as I did. I looked at her apologetically and strolled towards the door. Leonard stood there with a tinge of annoyance on his face. I didn't give two fucks about his feeling because he had just interrupted my plans. "So?" I said. "Didn't know you started bringing girls home. I guess Mathia's absence forced you to change your routine," He teased, moving past me to enter. He froze when he saw who was in the living room. "Jasmine?" He asked. She had a nervous smile on her face. "Hey, Leonard," She said, and he looked at me, trying to piece things together. "Well, I gue
