Ciara’s POV Shock reverberated through my body as I felt his warm lips on mine. I had never thought this day would come because Orion had always acted so disgusted of me. Now with his tongue trying to force its way down my throat, I couldn’t take it anymore so I fought against him. His hold on my waist didn’t let up so struggled against him for a while longer before he finally let me go. Frowning, he looked at me but I didn’t meet his eyes. I took a step back, my mind fuzzy and clouded. “What is going on?” His frown deepened but I was done with his games. Just a week ago, he was irritated with my presence, he never gave a shit about how I was feeling or what I was doing and now suddenly he found me irresistible? “What do you mean?” “Don’t play dumb Orion, please answer my question. Are you drunk?” I asked, my eyebrow raised. An unknown look entered his eyes and before I could ask him about it, it was gone. His face became expressionless and I shivered. Were we suddenly back to t
Ciara's POVOrion kissed me."So I was thinking a mild pink and then some white for the flowers......."Orion kissed me."Then a touch of blue for......Luna, are you listening?"I flinched and gasped as a hand brushed against my shoulders. I spent a few minutes taking note of my surroundings before I sighed and turned to the over-the-top wedding planner, Luna Stone who insisted we hire for the wedding. She wasn't bad looking, okay she was pretty with brown eyes and a soft pale skin that drew your eyes the second you saw her. Her black luscious hair flowed down her back and whenever she moved, some of it came forward and covered her face."Luna?" she called again and I sighed, focusing my attention on her."Sorry, I got distracted for a second there," I muttered sending her an apologetic smile but she shrugged it off, her grin big and almost fake."I understand how intense these planning details can be but that's why I was hired by Luna Stone so I can take the weight off of your should
Chapter 31Ciara's POVI was still reeling from the shock of what had just taken place in that room a couple of hours ago. Every time the memory popped into my head, I found myself glancing at Luna Stone who was back to her usually reserved self at the table. She had barely said two words since Lunch started.Was that who she was? Why was she keeping a facade and for whom? I shivered again as I remembered everything.A hand touched me and I shook in shock before relaxing when I stared at Orion's worried expression. "Are you okay?" He asked, his eyes filled with concern.The concern in his heart warmed me up from the inside but if I voiced out what was bothering me, how would he react? Would he believe his mother was a two-faced mean bitch?"Hey, you're scaring me," he whispered and I sighed, forcing a smile hoping he didn't see through it."I am fine Orion, I don't have much of an appetite," I told him and then turned back to start eating but as I picked up my fork, I felt the hairs o
Chapter 32Ciara's POVI sat on the toilet bowl staring at the stick in my hand, my eyes glazed over. It had been two weeks and so much happened in such a short time.I was finally married to Orion and the officially Luna of the pack. Old Man Heartfield was responding to treatment to the shock and absolute surprise of the medical team on his case. Sophia was still a no-show and Bryan had been scarce since the wedding.He had shown up at the wedding and then like the wind, he had disappeared as fast as he had come and since then, no one has set their eyes on him or heard from him. I was tempted to ask about him but since I knew how much Orion hated his guts, I knew that wouldn't be such a good idea.Lucas and I were still growing strong every day and things seemed to be going even better than they had been in the beginning. I had seen Bella throwing me annoyed looks at training but I never paid her any attention. Now that I was officially married to Orion and had been named Luna, Bella
Chapter 33Orion's POVI leaned against the wall for a few minutes after I walked out of the room to catch my breath and get my raging hormones under control. If someone had told me that I'd fall for my Omega mate, I would have beheaded them for even thinking it but look where we are now.Ciara had proven that she was a reliable and remarkable woman in this short time I have been around her, I was regretting not giving her a chance before now. She was patient and kind, sweet, loving, friendly, also cute too which was a bonus. She was my mate and now I felt like the biggest idiot there ever was because of how badly I treated her."Alpha,"I cleared my throat and moved away from the wall, schooling my expression as I saw James staring at me with a smirk on his face. "Where is my father?" I asked him, my voice hard and he immediately stood up straight, his smile slipping."Alpha Stone is waiting in your office."I nodded and walked to my office in long strides not waiting for James but a
Chapter 34Ciara's POV"You look so happy," Lucas commented, staring at me as if he was seeing me for the first time in a while. Technically, it has been a while but it hasn't been that long to warrant such a stare from him."I am happy Lucas, I have never felt so happy in my life." I raised my hands immediately after the words left my mouth and sent him an apologetic look. "That's not to say you didn't make me happy. I will forever be grateful to you for how much you helped me when I first got here. I wouldn't have survived without you so I owe you forever for that."He shook his head with a grin. "Forever sounds like a stretch. How about just for a couple of months until I can think of a favour to collect from you?"I pretended to think about it and then we shared a laugh. "I guess we have a deal."We shook hands and shared a laugh feeling carefree and young."So, are you happy?" He asked suddenly and I frowned.I didn't like his tone. "What do you mean?" I asked him trying to remai
Chapter 1 Ciara's POV Bang The door closed behind me and I squeezed my purse tightly. I would never understand why Lucas would want us to meet here of all places when he knew I didn't like clubs. But on second thoughts, he doesn't care about me. I'm still surprised he actually wants to talk to me, especially since he hasn’t said a word to me since we broke up weeks ago. I saw his message earlier in the day and I felt overwhelmed with all kinds of emotions. Perhaps the good thing about our meeting is that he could finally give me an explanation about why he cheated on me with my best friend Bella. It still hurts to remember how he had slapped me with his words after I had caught them shamelessly having sex on the day of our anniversary. Lucas had been my friend since I arrived at the pack and we connected instantly before becoming lovers. Then Bella came into the picture and also became my best friend. I always thought we had no secrets but she took my boyfriend, claiming he was
Chapter two Ciara's POV The faint rays of sunlight hit my face and I opened my eyes gently. My eyes were still blurry as I sat up. This most definitely wasn't my room. Where was I? I couldn’t remember coming to this place yesterday night, in fact, I couldn't remember much of anything except those scary men that had tried to force themselves on me. I deeply wished it wasn't the men I remembered walking in on that brought me here. What happened? “Let go of her..” I remembered something just then! The stranger that had walked into the room while I had been struggling to run away. Did he save me? Was this his house? His bed? I immediately pulled the blankets up to check myself and a cry of alarm left me as I realized I was naked. I had a one night stand with a stranger! What have I done? "Looks like you're finally awake." That same voice from last night said and I looked forward. My breath caught as I saw the same man from last night standing there in his robe with his rock-ha
