Giving Him My Virginity
1729 Words
ARIA'S POV
All I remember about being a child was that I have always been happy with my parents. We were a wealthy family. Yeah, I can recollect playing around a heap of cars in our compound, all owned by my dad.
But all of a sudden one night, some hired killers burgled into our house. They brutally massacred both my mum and dad right in front of me. I thought I would be killed, but I would have preferred to die instead of what they did to me.
The cruel guys sold me to an unknown mafia, and he turned me into a slave. I was beaten with a leather whip almost every night and left alone to sleep in a dark dungeon after almost crying my eyes out.
All he told me everything was that I was cursed, and my parents were killed for treason. But when I thought of committing suicide, I had thought of solving why my parents had died and getting revenge for them before my demise.
Till now, that urge was what kept me alive.

The windows sparkled as the sun struck the glass, making a reflection fall partially on half of my face.
I yawned heavily and happily as I remembered my encounter with my mate yesterday. I didn't know how to find Kael by myself, so I guess I'm going to walk in an unknown maze to get it.
A maid entered. She was a little bit beautiful but too tall as a lady. She placed a tray which contained cookies and cream cheese in front of me and bowed, I held the hem of her blouse as she turned to go.
She stared at me with a curious look, I guess my meekly look solved her curiosity. "Well, Alpha Kael had ordered me to bring you breakfast."
Wow! I don't think I can stomach this even though it's my favorite. The happiness fighting in me was too much for my stomach to contain.
"Alpha?" I inquired as I remembered he was not the Alpha yet.
"Since he's the only son of Alpha Ryker and there's no one biting the Alpha seat except from him, Alpha Ryker had made it a necessity that we refer to him as 'Alpha' ." She made herself clear and turned to move out.
"And what about him? Where's his room?" Maybe I was asking too many questions, she just made a nasty facial expression and walked away. Great!
I ignored the food, clambered on my feet, and put on one of Kael's shirts in the wardrobe. The cloth hanged between my hip and my knee, I could say on my thigh. I walked out of the room to look for the only person whom I could talk to.
I hadn't walked that much when I found myself in front of a room. I peeped through the hole at the lock of the door and I saw Lyra applying make-up to her face. She seemed like an angel, but when I realized her beauty was not natural, I hissed.
I felt someone tap my arm gently, the figure's hand was as strong as that of Kael, but his scent said otherwise. I almost fell immediately. I looked up to look at the stranger, but his strong but soft hand grabbed my waist.
His body structure could be compared to that of Kael, and he was as tall as him too. But I can't really choose who's the most handsome among both. The guy was just too cool.
"I'm Axel Blackwood." His name made me know instantly that I had to stay away from him.
Axel Blackwood, son of Alpha Blackwood of the Shadowclaw pack. He's a sworn enemy of Kael, and he's here as a hostage to maintain peace between the two strong packs.
I tried to break free from his stronghold, but he was just too strong for me, all the while I tried pushing him away, he just stared at me chuckling. His curious gaze made me know it was time to tell him my identity.
"I'm Aria, the one and only mate of Kael, the next Alpha of the Nightshade pack. Your sworn enemy!" I was so confident with every word I uttered. I fell immediately I was done with my words. It seems like he realized I'm not someone he can mess with.
"Don't trust him. He would just use you and dump you." I chuckled as he mumbled what I thought was nonsense. Only if he could have seen how Kael had rebuked Lyra because of me and how much love he had shown me.
"Thanks for your candid advice. Can you help me with getting his room?" I asked. Of course, I knew he wouldn't help me, but I still tried my luck.
"What's going on there?" Even if I lost my memory, hearing this thick but sweet voice of Kael would make my memories flush back. I ran into his arms and made that innocent baby face.
Axel clenched his fist, gritted his teeth, but what could he do? Fighting Kael is futile, and I'm sure he's wise enough not to think of fighting him since he's all alone in enemy territory.
"You're stepping beyond your bounds, my mate is not your property. You should know your place, Axel!" He growled, also clenching his fist.
A trace of bitterness crept into my heart. My carelessness had caused this. "I am deeply sorry for messing with your mate, I'm promising you that the mistake won't repeat itself. But tell her to stay away from me, she's too sexy to resist." His thick voice, brimming with sarcasm.
We watched him walk toward us.
I hoped and prayed within me that he would just leave peacefully, but I knew trouble was warming itself up when he brushed his shoulder against Kael's own as he walked past us. I held Kael's left hand and could feel within me that his anger was fueled down gradually.
"Why did you hold me? Are you feeling sympathy for that bastard?" He asked, his voice sounded like he was going to strangle me to death if I said 'yes'.
"Not at all, Kael. I just don't want you to fight him, violence is not the solution to every problem." Once more, he gritted his teeth as he looked towards the direction Axel went in.
Lyra came out, her face covered with smiles and her skin was glowing, thanks to her expensive make-up. "Did you come for me, Kael?" Her countenance changed when she noticed my appearance. I was standing behind Kael, so she hadn't seen me earlier.
"Not really, I was heading for Aria's room when I met her also coming for me." Kael said, his voice was a bit harsh as he stared at her.
She had an inflated sense of his importance. She was completely infatuated with him. A feverish cold infiltrated my soft skin, I really had to make her relinquish her hope of becoming Kael's Luna.
"You had promised me both of us would wet the garden together today, remember?" He made little or no effort to recollect what she had, he just stood there, his eyes burning a hole in hers.
"What has come over you?" Lyra asked, a tear escaping down her cheek. My stomach cussed out as Kael used his right thumb to clear it off.
The ray of jealousy I've slowly cultivated began to flicker; I would really lose my temper if Lyra kept trying to get at me this way. She resumed her nasty looking expression as Kael withdrew his hand and took a step closer to me.
What really irritated me was her obnoxious behavior. Maybe she acted that way only to me. Without any signal or warning, Kael pulled me out of Lyra's sight and I almost fell; thanks to his strong arm that was always fast enough to catch me.
Axel's arms were the same. But the feeling and spark were different.
I stared at his tousled dark hair, gleaming blue piercing eyeballs and his cute face.
What if Axel and Lyra were right about Kael just using me? Yeah, Lyra said it out of jealousy, but Axel had no reason to lie to me. My thoughts were swirling.
I love Kael because he is kind and gentle to me, even though he ought to scold me sometimes. He was strong enough to protect the pack from any unknown outsider. I love him because he is every bit as smart as he is protective and brave, because he makes me feel like no one else ever has or ever will.
Before I knew what was going on, Kael had carried me in a bridal way like it was our honeymoon. Then he walked slowly to where only God knows. "What if we bump into your dad?" The happiness in my voice made the words come out like a whisper.
"The house fully belongs to me. My father is busy boozing with the Portuguese trader he had struck a deal with a week ago." His tone and gaze made me know to postpone my questions, but I was too curious to keep quiet.
"Do you really plan to take me as your Luna?"
He replied to me with a kiss.
And then another.
And then another.
And then all the kisses ran together into one long kiss until I couldn't breathe. The intense look in his eyes was full of desire. "You're mine!"
He carried me to the bedroom, the whole time kissing my face, neck and lips. I thought I would melt. He laid me down on the bed, covered with lavender rose petals, and slowly undressed me, kissing me the whole time. Everywhere.
Butterflies fluttered rapidly in my belly as he took off the oversize shirt I wore. My body thrummed with anticipation. He kept smothering me with kisses.
An ecstatic smile slipped from my face.
My body was singing. And so were the birds, and the ocean, and the sun. It was my first time trying this out. I had sworn right from when I was young that I would give up my virginity; only to mate. And here he is, taking it.
I sav
ored the moment with obvious relish, oblivious of what the future had in stock for me.
