“Do you believe me now?” His tone was deep and husky. My knees felt weak, I was sure to collapse but I restrained myself.
“I’m-” I lost my voice. I forgot words.
He stood before me, my neck stretching up. His bright eyes met with mine as I pressed myself with the window. It was hard to look away. They were the same eyes as that wolf I encountered in the forest. This is real.
“Are you scared now?”
I shook my head since I was sure that if try to speak I wouldn't be able to utter a single word. Knowing very well that I was terrified, I still lied.
He started laughing and pulled away, his eyes turning back to their

Asher didn’t show up in the room the rest of the evening and even at night. Tantrums! Come to really think about it, I should start keeping my tone and mouth in place. He’s a strong guy. He can do whatever he wants to with me and as much as I hate to admit I won’t be able to do shit about it. For heaven’s sake girl, he is a wolf. A freaking wolf! I have to be honest here; my small mind is not accepting it. You know that feeling you get, when you know something’s’ happened, you see it but your mind is unable to grasp it. It’s unable to acknowledge the fact, unable to process it. That’s what is happening with me. I suddenly realise that oh shit I am kidnapped by a man-wolf,

A shaky breath came out after he banged the door shut. I could still feel the electric chills all over my body. His warm hands on my neck gave me butterflies. His hands were gentle. His thumb grazed my cheek with tenderness. For the first time I noticed the desire in his wistful eyes. It was almost like he had no control over what he was doing and the moment he realized, he pulled himself away. He’s running away, he’s avoiding it. Damn it Asher, if you could just tell me why I am really here. Tell me the truth because I am so desperate to know. Because if I’m right then, It’s not only you. It’s me too. I was stunned when I saw him. My white crescent mark was visible. I had to pull the towel higher before he could see it. T

So I’m his mate. I’m Asher’s life partner. His wife? He felt the connection? How can he just feel it? If only it was that simple. There are so many questions racing inside my head. Look on the bright side; you get to talk to your family. But what do I tell them since I’m not going back anytime soon? Asher said he had his conditions before he let me talk to them. What conditions is he talking about? Please don’t make things more complicated than they already are. Werewolves? They exist! There are more like them out there. Why isn’t anyone aware o

Asher left me after the call. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t mad at him for doing that. He should be considerate. He should have stayed with me. After all, I'm not doing this for me, I'm doing it for him. But then again he did give me an option, there was no forcing from his side. Someone please remind me why I’m doing it for him again? Regret was washing all over me. But no, I knew I had to be firm on my choice. I have to be adamant. Besides, staying here will give me a chance to discover a whole new world. A world of werewolves! I could very possibly be the first human to have discovered them. The thought was exciting. Deep within, I was hurting. The pain was excruciating. I brought that pain upon myself. If I had refused to Asher, right now I woul

Maya was standing inside the room with bags full of clothes for me. She got the news that I was staying longer so she bought more outfits. Maya felt like a friend I never had a chance to have (despite the current circumstances). “I’m so glad you’re staying with us” she squeaked. A part of me was thrilled and the other full of sorrow. The thrilled part of me was the one I was focusing on. There’s no point in feeling bad now. My choice had already been made and I wasn’t planning on changing it only to look like a coward. But maybe not doing so makes me one. Last night, Asher made clear of the things I could do around here. The only thing I’m not permitted to do is go out alone in the woods. Without a fuss I agreed. He told me I didn’t have a reason t

Relaxing on the grey couch I fixed my eyes on Aurelia who was letting out light snores. Sleepy head! Abruptly, she started shifting her sides, getting uneasy. Her breaths became heavier and she started panting. A loud gasp and then she woke up, sitting on the bed. “That good huh?” Her eyes made their way to me and I gave her a smirk. “What?” she asked out of breath. She seemed befuddled. “Was I that good in your dream that you woke up, out of breath?” I elaborated. Shaking her head irately, she replied, “No Asher. You weren’t that good because I wasn’t dreaming about you” For a moment she stared blankly at me thinking something over when I deci

“Where did you both go out last night?” Maya wiggled her brows. Pushing her back, I replied, “He was showing me around Maya. It’s not what you’re thinking,” “How do you know what I’m thinking?” She did me one good. “I just know,” I laughed, “I’m hungry. Can I please eat?” We were standing in the kitchen and the scent of all that food was making my mouth water. I could now sit at the dining table and have breakfast with Asher and the rest. Unlike me the rest of them are early risers so they were already done. Maya waited till I got up, which was in the afternoon. Yikes! She must be famished. Or perhaps it’s just an act. The soup from last night h

It was best to have this conversation in my office so I ordered the training session to be over and informed Gray to join us. It was gradually getting darker as the sun started to set. The office had a frigid mood since the weather was getting colder and the windows were open.“This doesn’t make any sense,” Gray blurted.“That’s what I thought,” I muttered.“I can’t refuse him, I hope you know that. The Winter Camp is open for every pack around the world. Refusing him would mean…” Cole started with the whole explanation but frankly, at the moment, it was infuriating me further.“I know what it means, Cole. I don’t want you getting into details,” I snapped at him. I was standing beh
