Selene's POV
The room blurred together in a haze of isolation. Confined to the guest room of the packhouse, I felt like a prisoner in a gilded cage. The walls, though adorned with intricate carvings and soft tapestries, felt suffocating. The Elders’ decree echoed in my mind like a death sentence: ‘REJECT HER.’
But the mate bond was relentless. It thrummed beneath my skin, a constant ache that grew stronger with each passing hour. My body craved their touch—Ronan’s commanding presence, Kade’s fiery passion, Elias’s quiet intensity. The bond was a living, breathing thing, and it refused to be ignored.
As night crawls in and the moon casts its silver glow through the window, I stand close to the window, staring at the moon. My skin felt too tight, my nerves on edge. The door creaked open, and I sat up, my heart leaping into my throat.
Kade slipped inside, his golden-blonde hair catching the moonlight. His blue eyes burned with a mix of desire and defiance as he closed the door softly behind him.
“Kade,” I whispered, my voice trembling. “You shouldn’t be here.”
He didn’t respond, his gaze locked on mine as he walked into the room and pin me to the wall in a few swift strides. The air between us crackled with tension, and I could feel the heat radiating from his body as he stood before me.
“I couldn’t stay away,” he said, his voice low and rough. “Your scent… it’s driving me insane.”
His words mirrored my own feelings, and I felt a shiver run down my spine. He reached out, his fingers brushing down my arm, and a surge of heat shot through me. My breath hitched, and I leaned into his touch, unable to resist the pull of the bond.
“Kade,” I breathed, my voice barely audible.
His eyes darkened, and he leaned in closer, his lips hovering just above mine. “You’re mine, Selene,” he murmured. “No curse can change that.”
I felt the heat of his gaze before he even touched me. The space between us hummed with something electric, something unspoken yet undeniable.
His fingers traced a slow, deliberate path along my arm, leaving a trail of warmth in our wake. My breath hitched as he cupped my face, his thumb brushing against my cheek with aching tenderness.
"You have no idea what you do to me," he murmured, his voice husky, edged with restraint.
My pulse pounded in response, my skin alive under his touch. He leaned in, our breaths mingling, the scent of him—earthy, warm, intoxicating—filling my senses. When his lips finally met mine, his lips were soft, almost like cushions. It was nothing compared to his hard chest.
At first, the kiss was gentle but the soft and gentle kiss didn't last for thirty seconds as he passionately began to move his lips against mine.
I kissed him back with the same intensity. My body was burning with desire. Our lips were moving in perfect rhyme. Surprisingly, I was matching his pace.
He grabbed my waist with his other free hand and pushed me against his chest.
My n*****s hardened when it was pressed against his hard chest. My hand automatically wrapped around his neck and I pulled him more towards myself to have more of him.
His hand went down from my cheek and back, and stopped on my hips before he squeezed them gently just to make me moan in his mouth. I gasped and he used the opportunity to shove his giant tongue inside my mouth.
The moment his tongue entered my mouth, he didn't waste any precious moment and began to devour my mouth like a hungry wolf who has been starving for decades and I happen to be his favorite food.
His tongue started to explore my mouth like he found a long lost treasure and he wanted it all to himself. I tried my best to give him a tough competition but I knew I was nothing compared to him.
I like how sweet he tasted. I love his taste. I was so turned on for him. I wanted everything. I wanted him completely.
He was mine after all! All the Triplet were.
After devouring my mouth for a while, making me breathless. He let go of me to breathe.
Our chest was moving up and down because of the heavy breathing. Both of our lungs were burning due to depletion of oxygen. The heat radiating from our bodies and the sound of our heavy breaths filled the room completely.
I don't know when my little hands went to the end of his t-shirt and I tried to remove it. He didn't ask me anything and helped me remove his t-shirt exposing his delicious body to me.
My eyes fell on his sizzling hot upper body. No doubt, he was well built.
My hands went down to his hard chest and slid down towards his even harder abs. I wanted to be crushed on the bed by those muscular veiny arms.
He moved down and held my hips and made me sit on the edge of the bed, like I weighed nothing. He kissed my cheeks, moved toward my lips and began to n****e on my lower lip.
I grabbed the edge of the bed tightly to stop myself from moaning. He went down towards my jawline, kissed and nibbled on it and finally went towards my neck.
I moved my head down towards the back side to give him more access. He kissed and licked on my neck with perfection, leaving hickeys on my neck making sure everyone knew that he had me.
He started from my left side and went towards the center. When he sucked in the middle of my neck, a needy moan escaped my mouth, “Ahhh”
“Looks like I found your sweet spot!” He said in a husky voice, almost hoarse, only his voice was making me dripping wet.
He . nibbled on my sweet spot for sometime before moving down towards my chest. His hand travelled through my body freely but he stopped above my boobs.
He moved back and looked deep in my eyes “Can I have them?”
I know he was talking about my boobs.
“You can do whatever you want! Except for mating!” I replied in a low voice. I was surprised how hoarse my voice sounded.
“I was not planning on taking you! The curse of the cursed moon is not a joke.
My mind drifted to what the seer says about the fate that will be before the Triplet if they claim me.
I was dragged out of my strain of thoughts when Kade grabbed my boobs and squeezed them.
“Ahhh!”
