Xander
We cleaned the kids, helped them eat their dinner, then tucked them in bed, read the bedtime story, and they drifted into slumber.
My poor baby must be traumatized and overwhelmed by this horrible experience.
I will make an appointment with a psychiatrist for treatment sessions.
We rose and went out of the room on tiptoe, like ballet dancers.
We opened the door very softly, trying not to wake up our peaceful kids.
We made our way to her room; she got in, and she was about to close the door. I held the door frame and said, “What the hell are you doing, Xander?”
“I need to talk to you.”
“about what”
“Let me in first.”
“Okay, make it quick.”
We walked in, and without a moment’s notice, I embraced her from behind, resting my head on her back and enjoying her sweet natural scent.
“Xander, get off me!”
“Not before answering my questions.”
“Why did you leave that night?”
“Are you for real, Xander?”
“Answer me, please.”
She freed herself from my hold and yelled.
“You fucking hated me, Xander; you made it clear that you don’t want me; you despise me in every way; you told me that I’m a lowly human, weaker than an omega, not fit for the shitty role of a queen Luna,” she said, a look of hate fury on her face.
“You rejected me first!” I shouted back.
“Because I had to protect my heart from you, you hurt me first, Xander. We were friends; you were the only friend I had, but you betrayed me and let me down. You became friends with the elite, which you were ashamed of. You treated me like sh*t and turned your back on me. You saw how they fucking mistreated me, but you did nothing about it. You let them think that you don’t care, and for what?” Because of your fucking bad boy image, you don’t hang out with the nerdy gal. That’s why I rejected you first. I never expected you to accept me as your mate, and Luna, I know you think so low of me, so I saved myself from humiliation.” She shrieked, hitting my chest with her fists. I took her hand in mine, stopped her, and cried.
“You wounded my heart by leaving me; you damaged me beyond repair, after our passionate night and our sweet love.”
You bewitched me. I was a changed man. I knew how brave you were. I knew how you kept your shins high even with the emotional and physical suffering. I knew how you kept your battle scars hidden. You were a brilliant student. You graduated without anyone’s help. I accepted you that night. I was ready to give up everything for you, but you only used me for your own good. You didn’t have faith in me. You ran away from me.
“I was scared for fuck sake; I anticipated the sex; I was the one who asked you to sleep with me, so the morning after, I thought that you would blame me for trying to trap you and trick you into accepting the bond, so I ran away to save myself from you.”
She began to cry and sob, and she clung to me. I pulled her into my arms, holding her tightly. “Can we start over? We were young and foolish. I tried to move on from you, but I was wrong. Hurting you only hurts me. So let’s forget the past and build a life together with our kids. Think about them. They love their parents and want us to live together.”
She looked at me with big, teary eyes. I pulled her closer to me. I kissed her temple, then her eyes and nose, and I gave her a light kiss, unable to resist. When she didn’t reject me, I deepened the kiss, nibbling at her full lower lip. She hugged my neck and welcomed my warm kiss with eager lips. I held her close by her waist and pinched her closer to me, kissing her hard. I bent her a little with my hands on her back, supporting her. Then I traced her lips with my tongue, gently kissing them in between.
I extend my tongue and reach out for her tongue, sucking it and mixing our saliva.
. I grabbed her lower lip with my teeth and bit it gently, not too harshly as it would cause pain. I nibbled on her upper lip, sucking harder and tasting her sweet, honeyed mouth.
I pulled away, trying to catch our breath. Then I lifted her over my shoulder; she screamed playfully, and I threw her on her bed and hovered over her, and I locked our lips in another passionate kiss. I nipped her neck, biting and sucking hard, trying to plant a hickey, making her mine by branding her with my love bites. Our make-out was cut short by someone screaming.
“Gina, what are you doing?” shitt that asshole Theo got us
“Theo, please listen to me; it is not what you think,” Gina said.
He shut the door and left.
Gina pushed me hard and ran after the dickhead.
Gina
“Theo, please stop; it’s not what you think.”He turned around, facing me. He grabbed my shoulders, pulling me roughly against him. Anger rippled through him.
“He’s on your bed, his body against yours, kissing you passionately. How did I get that wrong? I thought you were over him. I thought you had started to like me. I was going to reject my mate for you if I found her, for fuck sake. I thought you deserved that, but I was wrong. You are a selfish bitch.”
A wrecking sob left my mouth, and I lifted my hand, trying to reach him, but he took a step back.
“Don’t you fucking dare touch me. Stay away from me. I can’t even look at you. You know, we are over now. From now on, we are strangers to earth, other or new-found enemies.” He spits out venom dripping from his voice, then storms out, giving me a signal glance.
As the door clicked shut behind him, her breath escaped in a strangled sob, my legs became weak and shaky, and then I hit the floor. I am sobbing aloud. I have lost him forever.
Theodore
How could she do that to me after what I have done to her? I gave her my heart and soul. I was ready to give her everything she wanted and give up everything so she could be mine, but how does she repay me by cheating on me with her ex-mate?
I hate her, I fucking hate her, for making me feel this way-feeling so small and not worthy of her. I need a drink. I need to lose myself tonight and forget my pain and sorrow.
“Get the jet ready; we’re flying to my club.” I ordered my beta
After an hour , I was at my club. I went to the bar and ordered the strongest liquor in the house. Then the most intoxicating scent hit my nostrils: the scent of vanilla and honey invaded my nose, driving me and my dragon syrax insane. I go after the scent, and it leads me to the dance floor. Then my eyes landed on the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen.
She looked at me with a shocked expression, and we blurred out the word “mate” at the same time. Fuck!!! I found my mate, and my mate is a fucking demon.
“What’s your name?” I asked.
“Seraphina Valentine”
“I, Theodore Henry, the prince of the red dragons, rejected you…”
and I was cut off by her mouth covering mine in a long, warm kiss that left me short of breath.
After a second, I got back to my senses, and I pushed myself away from her, wiping my lips with the back of my hands.
“What the fuck!” “How dare you kiss me?”
“I’m your mate, and I can kiss you whenever I want, and how dare you reject me, you ass-hole? You’re mine, and you can’t ever reject me, you dick-head.”
“I, Princess Seraphina Valentine, accept Theodore as my mate.” She smirked at me and stormed out, leaving me speechless.
