Ryder’s erection throbbed painfully recalling her arousal. “Nothing,” he hissed and adjusted his erection. The pup was on his mind for the whole day. Now that he had decided that he would woo her, what was he going to do? He wasn’t skilled in the field of love! His beta had often told him how much the girls from his pack waited for him to notice them, to bed them, but he was just never interested. And now he regretted his decision. At least he would have had some experience. He wondered why he never yearned for others. Why was it that a mere thought of pup made him drool over her body? Damn it, he could sniff her arousal from so far also. Was she aroused? Was she thinking of him? Bloody Dominique was there in the cave. “Fuck!” he shouted.  Nolan jerked his head back. “What is wrong with you?”  “We need to rush back!” he said and sprinted back to the

Sweet aroma wafted in the air when Ryder and Lyle walked to the pool he had mentioned about. Lyle was surprised as her stomach hollowed when he led her to the pool while holding her hand for the entire path. “Watch out, there are steps here,” he said as he left her hand to jump down five steps. He extended his hand towards her to take them as a support. She placed her hand in his, and then climbed down two steps carefully. Leaving her hand, Ryder placed his hands on her hips and picked her up like she was a weightless person. He placed her on the ground, not leaving her until she was standing steadily.  He didn’t leave her and she felt his finger digging in her flesh. They stayed in that position for some time, barely a few inches away. She craned her head to look at him and his hazel eyes locked into hers. She could feel electricity tingling inside her body, as a shiver cruised through her body. His

When the two reached the cave, Lyle saw that all others were packed and waiting for them. Dominique gave her a look of disgust as if she had ditched him, but when his gaze traveled to Ryder, his mouth fell. Lyle noticed that Dominique was particularly interested in why the hell was Ryder shirtless and showing his muscles, in fact rippling them as he walked. She shrugged when Dominique mouthed ‘what the fuck’. Once again her face heated even though she tried to mask her emotions.  “So what’s the plan?” she asked Dominique in order to distract his attention.  “Why are you asking him the plan?” Ryder interrupted.  “Because he must have discussed it with Nolan… in detail,” she said in a nonchalant tone.  “And how would you know that?” he grated. “I kn

“Well, you are stupid enough to talk about Elara,” Nolan chided as he watched the aggressive werewolf.  “I didn’t talk about her. She talked.” He just didn’t know how to break the ice. The fact that she was talking to Dominique was irking him as hell.  “Maybe you should stop talking about her past boyfriends. That’s a redundant topic,” Nolan suggested.  That was definitely a redundant topic, but he didn’t know what to do with Dominique. “We need to send away Dominique. That bastard has been trying to flirt with her,” he fumed. Suddenly an idea struck him and an evil smile spread on his lips. He was going to kill him and then bury him somewhere on the peak.  “You don’t go around doing that to the beta’s of a pack. They are valuable and often very d

Ryder’s body froze, as he was shocked at what the witch said. Who did the witch mean by killing? From all the probability, it seemed that she wanted to kill Arya. But what could be the reason? And who the hell was she? He went back to where Nolan and Arya were and saw that Arya was lying unconscious on the ground and Nolan was on his knees beside her. “Wake up!” he said in a hoarse voice. His face was ghostly pale. “We have to take her back,” said Ryder. “She is weak and needs rest.” Nolan stood up shakily. He picked her up in his arms and pressed her face against his chest so that she was protected from the pounding rain. However, the rain cleared soon after and they walked as fast as possible in silence, each in their own thoughts.
