Castiel looked around furiously. He couldn’t believe his own eyes. His place of
relaxation, his beloved Eden was turned into... he didn’t even know how to na
it!
The girls in red weren’t waiting for him. For the first ti ever, they did not even
notice his arrival.
He was already standing in the very centre of the inner courtyard, but they were
playing cards, swimming naked in front of his guards, dancing, smoking, drinking,
simply being drunk – anything but waiting for him.
They were having fun, the most fun they had for a while. (This novel will be daily
updtaed at noveljar)And the sad part was that they were doing it
without him.
His eyes were glued to his guards, who stood like two stone statues in front of
the swimming pool, surrounded by a few of his girls who were clearly taunting
them. He had to admit that they weren’t touching what was his, but what was his
tried to touch them at all tis. He saw Laura, his first-ever werewolf gem, sliding
her arm up Mason’s chest. The werebear looked at her in fascination, not even
bothered that this was not allowed. Castiel didn’t visit Laura for months if not
years. He didn’t rember. Long story short, she lost his affections a while ago.
(This novel will be daily updtaed at noveljar)Was it because she
missed his attention? Or maybe she wanted to remind him of her presence? Or
she simply did not care? He did not know.
Others were not better. But he did not care about them.
He got there as soon as he realised that she was gone from her room and her
guards were missing as well. And when he did not find them anywhere, he had a
hunch where to look next.
Well, Riannon did not disappoint. He could tell that this was her work. She was
sending a ssage to him, demonstrating that it was a mistake to bring her in
here. That despite her being a captive here, she was still in control.
Cunning, sly woman. Just perfect for him.
He had been looking for soone like that for a while. Only that he hoped that it
would be his mate.
He never planned to kidnap a woman in his life. It was important for him that
But when Riannon ca into the ga, everything changed. He was never
interested in anyone like that in his life. He couldn’t forget the mont when her
elegant fingers touched his skin and she called him handso, looking into his
eyes as if she knew everything about him. And when she called him Everett, he
couldn’t overco his shock. Usually he was the one to play with people like that
but with her
he felt like the one being played all the ti.
That was why he went to her room straight after Roxanne freed him. And that
was why he was thinking about her ever since.
He watched her playing her gas with her now ex-husband and others. And the
more he saw, the more he was sure that she would be a perfect Luna for him.
There was only one problem – her true mate. But maybe it was for the best. After
all, he was going to kill the lycan king anyway. Now he only had more motivation.
Riannon was strong. Castiel was sure that she would survive the loss of her mate
and then... Then she would be his. He would be there to console her and he
would be there to replace her everything she lost. Bit by bit he would heal her
heart and make her trust him. He would make his kingdom hers and she would
feel responsible for their people. In the end, she would stay with him and rule
together. All he needed to make this happen was ti. And after Gideon
Stormhold was killed, they would have all the ti in the world.
He found her sitting with Bridgit of all the people. They were playing chess and
talking like two best friends who had known each other forever.
Brigit. BRIGIT!
The one who was ready to kill anyone he even looked at. The one who all the
girls were afraid of and whose word could move mountains in the harem.
For the first ti, fury overwheld him and he roared, “What the hell is all this?”
He expected everyone to go still and quiet, but his voice did not have that effect
now. (This novel will be daily updtaed at noveljar)So of the red girls
were too drunk to notice and react. And this was when he slled weed and
recognised the cigar in one of his property’s hands.
Riannon and Bridgit were the only ones to notice. But he let out another roar so
that this ti not a soul in this harem could miss it.
The music went off and the girls at least tried to look presentable now. was
definitely the best word to describe the crowd of half-naked giggling creatures
with sparks of mischief in their eyes.
Just what did she do to them? What did she tell them? And in such a short
period of ti. He had to be impressed with her abilities but he was angry.
“Castiel, play with us!” Laura teased him, but he ignored her, moving straight to
Riannon.
She watched him with interest and even so kind of amusent. He knew
that she had planned all this and she tried to make a fool out of him.
Successfully.
“Co here!” he growled, yanking her by her slender arm to her feet. Brigit next
to them stood up as well.
“Oh, hello,” Ria smiled at him, “we did not expect you here. But you are welco
to join us. What do you prefer to play? Cards, chess, hide-and-seek?”
“The ga night is over!” he shouted, “Everyone, back to your rooms!”
The girls started gathering their things and from the corner of his eye, he noticed
so of them still taking the bottles of alcohol and cigars with them. Probably to
finish them off in their rooms.
“Don’t be sour!” Riannon smirked, “Are you jealous that your girls like more
than they like you? Why do you even care? You said you were going to let all of
them go soon. Can’t this be their farewell party?”
She did that on purpose. She said that on purpose. It was a trap and he fell for it.
Because now his girls were looking at him in disbelief. He couldn’t deny it
because then his word would an nothing to her. And he wanted her respect.
He craved it.
Angry, he pulled her roughly towards himself and started dragging her out of the
room. She stumbled and tripped her foot, so he had to throw her over his
shoulder and continued his way to the exit.
“Put down!” Riannon tried to protest, but she had no idea what kind of
He brought her back to her room and threw her on top of the bed angrily. But the
woman did not stay there, of course. She rolled off quickly and was back to her
feet in no ti, ready to fight if she had to. He saw it in her eyes.
“Don’t be silly,” he gave her a feline smile, walking around the bed and cornering
her. “I know you can’t shift.”
Her reaction to his words wasn’t what he expected at all. (This novel will be daily
updtaed at noveljar)The Luna did not look scared of him knowing the
truth about her. She was prepared even for that. And his respect for her grew by
the minute. And so did his desire.
“How did you know?” she said, her voice trembling just a bit as he pinned his
hands on both sides of her, pressing her into the wall.
“Does it matter now?” he asked, grazing his eyes over her straight features that
he loved so much.
“You said that you don’t take won against their will,” she reminded him and he
chuckled, knowing that she could already feel the massive bulge forming in his
pants.
“did, didn’t l?” Castiel traced the column of her neck with his nose, making her
shiver. He knew that it wasn’t in delight, but he was happy to at least get so
reaction. “But I did not say that I wouldn’t be trying to seduce you.”
He really did not want to do it. But she left him no choice today. He needed her to
give in as fast as possible. Because staying next to her and doing nothing proved
to be harder than he thought.
He traced his tongue over her collarbone, where he would mark her one day,
regretting that he wasn’t able to give her the golden crescents. Although maybe,
after king Gideon was dead, it would turn out that he was her second chance
mate. There had to be an explanation as to why he was so captivated by that
woman. He chose to believe that this was the case.
She stiffened under his touch, trying to push him away, but he bit her marking
spot slightly, warning her to stay still. She understood him correctly and at once.
He promised not to take her. But he could still mark her to stake his claim.
However, first thing first. Castiel closed his eyes, enjoying the taste of her skin in
his mouth, and changed his scent.
He knew exactly what scent he had to copy after their eting in the woods. So,
there could be no mistakes.
She gasped when he imitated Gideon’s scent and he chuckled, knowing that it
worked. This was sothing hard to resist for mates, it was a physical reaction.
“Just close your eyes and relax, Riannon,” he whispered into her ear, brushing
his lips over her earlobe. One of his hands grasped her bottom, taking a fistful of
her flesh, while the other tugged her hair at the back of her head. He could
devour her now and was going to do just that. The need for her was unbearable,
his mber aching to be inside of her.
She did close her eyes, furrowing her eyebrows and when he was about to cover
her lips with his in a possessive greedy kiss, she smirked and said, “Is that what
you say to all those girls? Close your eyes and pretend it’s not ? I have to say,
Castiel, this is disappointing. Even for a fox.”
He growled in frustration and she looked at him. Her beautiful eyes were telling
him that she was ready to fight if she had to. Even if she couldn’t shift. Even if
she knew she would lose. She would fight him.
“I just wanted to help you relax a bit,” he lied. To her and to himself. “No harm in
that.”
“Then you should just let go. Trust , I will be very relaxed at my ho.
With my mate,” she scoffed.
Such a spirit – worthy of a Luna. Worthy of a Queen. His Queen.
“Otherwise,” Riannon went on, “how does that make you different from your
father?”
Those words struck him harder than she could imagine. He hated his father. He
hated everything that his father represented. The last thing he wanted was to be
like him. In any way.
It was different with all those other girls. The scent was just foreplay in most
she didn’t. She gave him no reaction when he touched her. She didn’t even have
to say ‘no’ for him to know that he did not have her consent.
All those other girls did not have mates. This woman that he wanted so much
did.
He crashed his fist into the wall right next to her head, creating a dent. But she
did not even flinch, holding his glare with dignity. And leaving him no choice.
He planned to kill the western lycan king for a while already. Now he wanted to
kill him. He needed it. Because it was the only way to get what he so desperately
desired.
“You are prohibited from entering the Eden,” he snarled as he stepped away from
her and to his displeasure, he noticed relief on her face.
“Who do you think you are? God?” she chuckled darkly. “Here I am everything!”
he snarled.
She did not respond and he did not feel like telling her anything else. The night
was already ruined.
He was already at the door when he stopped without turning to her, (This novel
will be daily updtaed at noveljar)“You will get used to it. Ti will help.”
She was definitely going to say sothing. Sothing that he did not want to
hear, so he left before he had the chance to hear it...
For the first ti ever Savannah was happy. Truly happy.
It wasn’t like she was particularly unhappy before. She was lucky to have a great
life and she knew it. Even despite the early death of her parents, she was well
taken care of, and she always had everything she wanted or needed. She even
had people that cared about her. And she cared a great deal about them.
She missed her parents and what they could have given her if they were around
every day and the pain of losing them always lived inside of her. She also always
felt the weight of her royal responsibilities. But she could handle it, knowing that
her brother and Reid were dealing with what was really hard and tricky. So, she
But now she was about to start a completely new life. The Moon Goddess was
kind to her and sent her a true mate. Sothing she always dreamt of but was
too afraid to even say it out loud.
Yet here he was.
She took another peek at Zack, who looked incredibly handso as he was
driving the car. Without turning his attention away from the road, he found her
hand and squeezed it gently.
He was handso and from what she had already heard about him, and
Savannah had a very good mory, she knew that both Riannon and her brother
spoke highly of him.
It made sense that they were mates. She was a lycan princess and he was an
Alpha of a werewolf pack. Just like Gideon and Ria they could connect their
people, bind them together as one once and for all. She saw it as her mission
now. Especially before the war that was about to break out. The war that was
about to rob them of their first days together. But it did not matter, because they
would have all their lives together after they win. And she had no doubts about
that.
Zack took her to his house, which turned out to be a very long bungalow in a U-
shape. That was a surprising choice of building for a pack of wolves. But it looked
new and modern.
“Our previous Alpha burned down the old packhouse after I challenged him and
win,” Zack explained, smiling apologetically, “I had to start building a new one.
This used to be our stables but now we build around it... It’s cosy inside, trust
.”
“I love it,” she stopped him with a smile.
“You don’t have to say that,” Zack stepped closer to her and took one of her
hands into his. (This novel will be daily updtaed at noveljar)“I know that
you are used to having the best and I will do my best to provide you with...”
“I love it,” she said firmly and then grinned at him, “but I appreciate the gesture.
They stood like this for a while, the wind blowing her golden brown hair into his
“I want to kiss you so badly right now,” he finally said, and Savannah took a step
in his direction, placing her palms onto his chest.
“Then what are you waiting for?” she smiled and he crashed his lips into hers,
devouring her quickly and forgetting about everything. Savvy’s toes curled when
she felt him picking her up.
She did not hesitate, as her wolf, Athena, was urging her to get closer to him.
They had been waiting for that man their whole lives and now he was finally here.
He brought her inside the house bridal style and placed her back on her feet in
the middle of the living room in modern minimalistic style, where there were
already several people inside. They all seed shocked to see them together,
but Zack wrapped his arm around her possessively.
“Gang, et my mate,” his smile was bright and even a bit smug. “This is
Savannah and she is your future Luna. She is also king Gideon’s younger sister
and I can hope that you will all treat her with the respect she deserves.”
“Congratulations!” a guy with blonde hair stepped forward smiling friendly at her.
“I am Viktor, this lucky bastard’s Beta. If you need anything, feel free to co to
any ti.”
Nas started pouring, followed by handshakes and even hugs. So many that
there was no chance to morize them all at once even with her good mory.
But she knew that there would be ti for that too.
“I can’t believe that a goddess gave you a princess!” soone snorted, jabbing
Zack, “Did she sin in her past life or sothing? Why was she punished like
that?”
Her mate growled and pulled her closer as a few awkward laughs could be
heard around them,
“Don’t be jealous,” he kissed the top of her head gently as his fingers were
drawing circles on her arm, “And now, please, excuse us. We... need to...”
He couldn’t find the right words and she giggled, “Get to know each other better.”
“Yes,” he pulled her closer possessively, “That. We will eat in our room too. So,
“Just tomorrow?” so girl with curly black hair said, and Savannah paid her
attention for the first ti. The girl had an unpleasant smirk on her face. “You are
losing your grip, Z. Back in the day...”
“My mate is my treasure,” he cut her off, “I don’t want to overwhelm her or hurt
her. She is my first priority now.”
Savvy tried not to smile. This was exactly how a mate was supposed to respond
to hints like that. He protected her and set boundaries at once. And she couldn’t
be more proud.
This was why as soon as he locked the door behind them and they stayed alone
in the spacious bedroom, she grasped his shirt and pulled him closer to kiss him.
“I am so sorry,” he mumbled, snarling slightly as desire started to overwhelm
him.
“You have nothing to apologise for,” the girl gasped into his mouth before she
leaned closer again to deepen the kiss this ti.
“Savvanah,” Zack breathed into her neck, peppering it with kisses and pulling her
jacket down. “I don’t think I can’t stop... You are... So..
“Then take already,” she ordered, and he did not need another invitation.
Very quickly, they both helped each other out of their clothes, step by step,
approaching the bed.
“I think I am in heaven,” Zack said as he hooked her lacy underwear with his
fingers and pulled it all the way down to her feet. “Savvanah, you are divine!”
She was taking in his strong muscular body, which was also perfectly tanned.
And the bulge in his boxers seed impressive too.
“Just call Savvy,” she smiled at him, lifting one of her legs tracing her toes
along his perfect abdon. He caught her leg and bent down to kiss it, spreading
her slightly before his eyes.
“Very well, my Princess,” he smirked, “Savvy it is.” (This novel will be daily
updtaed at noveljar)Without any further warning, he knelt before her,
placing her leg onto his
moaning into her.
“Savvy,” he growled and kept pleasing her, his voice created vibrations in her
most sensitive spots.”Savvy, Savvy, Savvy.”
Zack pronounced her na, again and again, bringing her over the edge way too
quickly. The mating bond was intensifying everything they felt. Savannah arched
her back, screaming his na as she clim.ax for the first ti. But he was far
from done with her.
She had to admit that her mate was very experienced because he knew exactly
what he was doing. And he did it masterfully.
Slowly, she felt how he started placing kisses all over her body. He didn’t miss an
inch of her, easing and exploring, enjoying her fast heartbeat.
“You are so sweet, Savannah,” he announced to her with a grin.“I couldn’t have
asked for a more beautiful and amazing mate.”
“You don’t know yet,” she let out a little laugh, trying to steady her breathing,
“What if I am this horrible and an person?”
“No, you are not,” he brushed the hair off her forehead and traced her sensual
lips with his fingers. “You are the sweetest thing that I’ve ever seen. Don’t worry,
whatever happens, you are mine now and I am going to take care of you.”
She could feel him positioning himself at her entrance, anticipating it as the lower
part of her belly was aching for him. She felt so much in love that she wanted to
say it out loud. Even if it was probably stupid to do it on their first day. But she felt
it and she wanted to share. They were at war after all and she did not want to
waste any of the ti they had together. She had already opened her mouth
when he entered her in one gentle but firm move. He gave her a few seconds to
adjust and then his body towered over hers. He started peppering her with kisses
and moving at the sa ti.
“I am the luckiest man alive,” he muttered in between swearings, which she took
as a complint as well. He wasn’t her first man. But he was the most special.
Savvy wrapped her legs around him and adjusted to his rhythm. The
each other.
After a few hours of making love, they were finally tired enough to want so
food. They talked about their lives, but mostly about hers. Zack turned out to be a
great listener.
Savannah was checking her phone from ti to ti but there was nothing from
her brother or read. Although there were a few ssages from Kyla asking her if
she was okay. She replied to him with a few emojis and their code word, so that
her best friend could go to sleep tonight. Even if she was not going to.
Because after the late dinner, they were back in each other’s arms and making
love.
Savvy did not rember when she fell asleep, but she rembered how sweet it
had been to be in his warm arms.
She woke up while it was still dark and, to her disappointnt, her mate wasn’t
around.
“Zack?” she called his na but received no reply.
Her heart couldn’t stay calm. If he left her in the middle of the night, he had to
have a good reason. That girl with dark hair ca to her mind, but Savannah
brushed it away. If Zack was cheating on her, she would have felt in through the
bond. And she felt no such thing.
So, it could only be sothing connected to his pack or the war. And she felt
like she had to be involved in both cases as the future Luna. She did not want
him to think of her as so spoilt princess. She never was that.
So, Savvy took his shirt that still slled like him and put it on. (This novel will be
daily updtaed at noveljar)She did not bother to look for her shoes and
just walked out with bare feet. She did not have to wander the dark halls for long
when she saw a little line of light, left by a door that wasn’t properly closed.
As a lycan, she could already feel the scent of her mate and to her relief, he was
there alone.
She wanted to enter the room when she beca able to recognise his words.
