Wolves were naked. As I slowly opened my eyes, I found Lycan Nathan beside me holding my waist. I flung up and turned towards him in shock. He had left his room. The room they reserved for him to sleep because it was late. He couldn't get over my body and beauty, and that's why he rushed here.
‘What do you think you are doing?
‘I can't sleep’
‘I don't really care, get out of my room’
‘Dont shout, it's just this night’
‘So I would be having a quickie with a stranger?’
He pushed himself forward to the position where my laps stretched out freely, looking into her eyes.
‘Im not a stranger in that sence, we have known ourselves for a long time now’
‘I love you and you know it's true’
‘And I don't, I hate you’
‘What have I suddenly done that you hate me so much?
‘You think you can get any woman down’
As I continued, he pressed his lips on mine as my breath lingered on his face. I fell silent for a moment, and the kiss had left out the suspense that beheld us. I still opened her eyes in extreme shock looking wildly into his eyes. He was already lost in this affectionate kiss. I was calm, deeply intertwined with his feelings, and loosing my breath, to a fierce kiss that didn't demand my approval. It came so sudden, like a rush and I could not resist it. He held my waist caressing it slowly, then moving his hands around her back, trying to touch the inner mysteries of my emotions.
When he had finished he slept for a while, I was too tired to notice that he was sleeping. When I woke, the next morning I as angry to find that he had left before I noticed. I couldn't complain because it had happened but I was scared not to get pregnant for him. When I woke up, I couldn't find him by my side because he left earlier.
I moved from the room and went to the toilet lowering her head beneath the kitchen sink. As I washed my face, I remembered everything that happened last night. I felt weird and troubled by it. Especially for the reason that Lycan Nathan had slept with both me and my cousin Shelia. I wasn't given much time to make that decision of her marriage to him, and was also scared that I might have gotten pregnant from her meeting with Lycan Nathan last night. I had never had s*x before but last night felt true, terrifying and pleasurable at the same time.
The thoughts floated in my mind, for few seconds, but it finally gave way. I opened the window and saw someone who had parked his car outside. I wasn't sure if it was Nathan but seem confident that he had left early this morning. I closed the curtains preventing the sunshine from streaming inside through her windows. I moved from the bed and checked the time. It was 9:00am.
‘Its late, I have slept so late’
I knew that the actions of yesterday made me sleep so late. It was the best moments of my life but she regretted that Lycan Nathan had deflowered her. He was not trusted, he could cheat on me.
I heard a slow knock on the door, having thought it was mum and when I rushed to open the door, it was Shelia. I froze. I was shocked because it was the first time that Shelia came into my room, and I was curious even though it was on the day of my mating ceremony.
I sat in front of the mirror, applying bits of gel on my hair. The breeze was warm and gentle, as it lifted the white curtains from time to time. I was still admiring my elegant face and pink lips on the wider reflection. The pride of my beauty grew gradually, flowing from my face to the rest of me. I was preparing for my mating ceremony with Lycan Nathan today. It was scheduled in an hours’ time. I needed to rush things, to avoid missing the most important moment of my life. Anytime, I stared at myself in the mirror, I smiled because it was my last day in this terrible house. The pack that I once lived in love has become my very own nightmare. I was suprised that Shelia was assisting me to get prepared. I have never seen her this happy, not when I'm getting mated to her desire whom she had slept with in my absence.
I still felt hurt whenever the thought crossed my mind, but I knew the most important thing was my personal joy and that was to leave this godforsaken house and gain my freedom. Shelia hardly smiled and when she did it was for a purpose. Today it was quite different even though she knew, she was going to watch me get mated, without anyone to help her do the regular house chores.
The smile on her face lingered for a moment, as she moved closer to me, standing beside closely. She adjusted my zip and faced the mirror squarely. This was the first time we talked at arm's length. It was shocking, but deep down I felt something was wrong. I was not happy in the usual way that a bride should be. She walked up to me with my stilleto. It was a dazzling white and perfectly matches with the gown I wore. I seemed to be getting everything that I yearned for.
