Um hey, are okay? Hemmered, caring and studying her body Elise was naked, with rough hand marks courtesy of Rygan’s fern? hua, it rise him recall how much the moaned and writhed under him when she climaxed, and how he fucked and filled her for days.

Elise pushed her hair till it fell over her chest and nape before she spoke. You fer hickeys a lot of them,” she murmured. checking her litered body. “I need to take a shower.

“We need to talk,” he said to Elise. She froze at the seriousness of his tone, swallowing a breath before turning her fully naked body to him

“I can’t walk or think straight, especially if I’m still covered in this she said, referring to the cum stains on her body. “So, please let me at least take a shower, she called with crossed hands.

With a grunt in reply. Rygan left the bathroom, and Elise immediately slammed the door shut. She leaned on the door. catching her breath and trying to calm her pounding heart.

She took a bath, trying to wash off the very obvious scent of sex, her head riddled with dark thoughts of Rygan’s engagement this evening. “He’s getting mates; he’s getting mated!“, the voice continued like a mantra.

She cleaned the mist off the mirror, staring at her bloodshot eyes that withheld tears. She forced herself not to cry as she quickly tied a towel and headed to the small bedroom, where she freshened up, but only spare clothes from Rygan were available. She took off a tunic and wore her old pants.

Rygan was waiting patiently at the table, his gaze locked on her as Elise walked over to sit down. “I went into heat yesterday.”

“It seems so.”

“I’ve never had a heat before; I’m sorry. I think I must have forced you to do things you didn’t want, especially since…”

“You didn’t force me to do anything,” he cut her off, his hands reaching for her over the table, but she backed away.

“Then thank you, but I think we should…”NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

“Forget this?” He answered bitterly. Rygan had a feeling that Elise would say something like this. “I can’t forget this; neither my wolf nor my body can, since the day we met in the dungeon, I can’t forget, you know that,” he said.

And even though Elise knew what he meant, she knew the unmistakable pull between them–that revered connection that made her crazy for him—and even as her wolf had imprinted on him, she still couldn’t see why she should hurt herself by accepting him.

So she chose to take the cold route out. She steeled her face into cold and stoic indifference as he spoke.

“It’s just a heat, a feral instinct to our natural needs; my wolf wanted a male and she got a male; it wouldn’t have made a difference if it was you or Kaide in this cabin with me.” She struck a chord.

“You don’t mean that, Elise.”

*1 passed the test: 1 shifted to my wolf, and I’m thankful to you for that, but the reason we came here has been fulfilled, yes?” She said as she stood up. “And we wouldn’t want to miss your engagement in a few hours; congratulations, Rygan,” she called as she strolled into the room and shut the door.

She took a deep breath, closing her eyes to stop the tears that formed and threatened to flow, her fingers balled into fists as she slid down the door.

Rygan made his way into the shower, her scent still lingering in the air. Rygan felt a buildup of anger and punched the mirror, shattering it on impact.

He spent a few minutes under the shower trying to cool his head from Elise’s rejection. After freshening up, they took their belongings and walked out of the cabin. It felt like torture as she walked behind him.

She could only stare at his back, and her gaze caught the incriminating marks that she also left on his nape. She was so lost in her thoughts that she slipped on some barked roots and fell to the ground. “El”

She hissed in response to the pain as Rygan was by her side; he helped her up, and that feeling of not being able to breathe anytime he was near came again. The tension was thick, and she had to push him away. “I’m fine; I just tripped,” she pointed out.

As they neared the town, a wave of panic settled in her as she saw the crowds and festivities about to start. She wondered if they’d be able to scent any of Rygan’s pheromones from her, so as they reached the bottom of the hill, Elise paused in her steps, alerting Rygan, who stopped too.

“What is it? We are almost at the moon house,” he questioned with a casted gaze at her.

“I cannot go in there with you,” she protested.

“What do you mean you can’t go?”

“I just can’t,” she said as he began to walk in the opposite direction of the bridge that leads to Vienna’s home. She heard Rygan curse, and in seconds, he was in front of her, blocking her way. “Please move, Rygan.”

He did the unexpected, taking her face into his palm and kissing her hard. It was electric, sending pulsing currents through her body. She regained control and fought off his hold on her as she bit his lips and walked away from him. “Are you crazy? We can’t do this!”

“Then I will make this right, El; I will,” Rygan assured as he watched her walk away with a confused and wavering heart. She did not let it show, nor did she look back at him.

She walked until she reached the familiar door of Vienna’s home, knocking on it softly. The moment a confused Vienna opened the door and came into view, Elise’s legs weakened as she fell to the floor and tears flowed as she wailed hard.

“I messed it up again. Vienna, what is wrong with me?” She cried as the healer kneeled and held her friend tightly in her arms, giving Elise the comfort that she sought as she cried her heart out.

What was she going to do now?

Meanwhile, back at the moon house, the minute Rygan entered, he was met with his two friends who were in his chambers; their gazes hardened, and they looked worried as they finally saw their alpha.

“Finally, you do know that Bastard Kyren is already on his way here,” Kaide muttered, knowing how much his cousin knew, and barraged them both with questions about Rygan’s whereabouts. Taz, on the other side, sipped on a cup of wine as he stood to face Rygan.

“Well, you sure took a lot of time to show up late on the day of your engagement,” words tumbled from his lips as he took a whiff of a very familiar scent from a certain redhead omega that they all knew.

“Rygan, you didn’t…” Taz started.

“I plan to end the engagement today,” he said to the two males, whose eyes widened with shock. But before they could answer, the doors of his chambers were pushed wide open by a very furious Alvira.

“No, you won’t,” she snarled.
