"What is that?" I asked, turning my gaze to the white box on the end table.

He pulled back and reached for it, picking it up by the knot and depositing it into my open hands. "Dessert. You made no mention of it on the phone, so I thought I would bring something."

"Oh, thank you!" My sweet tooth agreed with his genius idea, and I closed the apartment door before taking the box to the counter, Gabriel in tow. I reached for scissors and cut the ribbon, and opened the box to peek inside. Cheesecake, I identified. Smothered in chocolate. My stomach grumbled in appreciation, and I felt the brief but powerful impulse to simply skip the lasagna part of dinner and dive right into this mess of calories and chocolaty goodness. "If you have to bring something to a girl, bring chocolate or wine," I said with approval, and looked up to find Gabriel standing right behind me. 

He smirked. "No flowers?"

"Not unless you did something wrong." I shook my head. "Chocolate is better."

The Hunt by NikkyCole19
36 parts Complete Mature
Michelle's life was almost perfect. Loving family, great college, perfect grades, good friends, and a crush on one of the sweetest guys she's met. The only problem is that a local werewolf has decided she's his mate. With the struggles of falling in love and discovering things about herself she didn't know, she also gets thrown in the middle of a fued between the hunters and the hunted. ***** He finally made eye contact and I couldn't tell what he was thinking, or how he was feeling at that moment. He had me shut out. "Dad won't let her in the pack." "I know." "Are you sure she's human?" I rub my eyes again, they were really beginning to burn. "Yes, unless I've gone absolutely insane." I stopped rubbing my eyes for a moment. "Maybe I am crazy? I feel like it." Caden sighed, "That's the mate bond. The longer you go without, the worse you get." I knew that. I didn't like to think about it, but we all grew up hearing about it. Going crazy, your body shutting down. Wolves weren't meant to be separated from their Soulmates. It physically and mentally drained them until they just one day gave up. I never thought it would happen to me since it doesn't ever actually happen. We all knew better. Unfortunately my human mate did not. Caden watched me from where he sat, he knew what I was thinking, and was thinking the same himself. We didn't know how much time I had. "Well, I for one, as Alpha, would not mind a human in our midst if she is your mate." I let a small chuckle slip out and leaned back in my chair, crossing my arms. "Is it because you're so accepting of humans, or because you insist on having me as your Beta?" Caden smirked at me, "Does it matter?"

patreon.com/user?u=78988691 Emily is a healer within the Blue Stone Pack, Cain is Alpha of the Fire Crest Pack. They met two years ago by the hand of fate and now are nothing but a distant memory to both. Loss and trickery clouds the judgment of both and leaves their relationship in a spiral fighting to be tamed. A she wolf with an innately kind demeanor and a confident alpha male with an instant disliking and mistrust for anyone come together in this tale of love and I can assure you it doesn't happen overnight. Love is a journey that we all shall take part in, aware or unaware of the fact, these two will grow together and as individuals. ------------------------ "You will be the Luna to my pack, that is a given, but understand; we will not be sharing a room now or in the future, we will only be sexually active for the sake of making pups, you are to be marked within the week and also introduced to the pack, you must also memorize our pack rules as some may be slightly different form your last pack, we will hold hands in public on special occasions but not often and any form of PDA is prohibited." He pulled out a paper and placed it in front of me. "If you understand sign below." I stared at the paper in front of me gathering all that my mate had said. This felt like a business deal. "What if I do not agree to these terms?" Cain's face hardened and I could see his form shake slightly as he fought back a growl, anger pulsed through our weak bond. "Then we cannot be mates and I will send you away from me, we will never meet again." I stared at the man in front of me and took no more than two seconds before picking up the elegant black pen stationed in a fancy cup holder on his desk and signed my name quickly on the required portions of the document in front of me. Once the pen lifted from the page Cain took the paper from me and signed below my own name as a witness and dated the document. I wondered with little humor if this would be our anniversary.

A woman born with a silver spoon yet grew up independent couldn't wish more with her situation other than having her own house and stop her dad from worrying as if she is still a child. However, along the way, this lady crossed paths with a hardworking guy who grew up in a toxic environment that changed her world's point of view. As they journeyed further, slowly their cold, icy hearts melted into a sweet liquid of happiness. "Here's your ice cream." Maricar gave the guy her treat to him. "Thanks." The guy quickly bit a good amount of still-freezing sweet concoction of happiness. It was always his way to eat ice creams ever since he was a kid. Pierre noticed the young lady looking at his mouth with a disgusted face. "Is there something wrong?" "Does that hurt your teeth?" she asked with worry. She's the licking type of person when it comes to eating ice cream. She have sensitive teeth as her reason. "Oh, it's bearable. I'm after the feeling that it melts inside my mouth. I used to do this when I was a kid. My mom would buy me a small dirty ice cream when a vendor passes by our house. And that's one of my happiness that I still do today." "Why? What's the feeling?" Maricar asked for further details. Pierre grinned and looked at the ice cream cone. "I would think that this ice cream represents my time. I would eat some and let it melt inside instead of dripping it to waste. Just like today, I don't want to waste any minute and consume everything." Maricar suddenly spoke after a moment of silence. "Pierre. Do you mind if I took a bite of yours?" *** Language: English Rating: 16+ All Rights Reserved
