Claiming His Resisting Mate

REESE’S POVCopyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“What the hell are you wearing?” That was the first word which came through my mate’s mouth when he saw me. Earlier Adriana and I decided to get ready together for the party while Azrael and Cassius were pushed to another room by Adriana. I couldn’t help but admire how she handled Alpha Cassius so easily. That man looked solemn all the time yet he never refused to what Adriana would say. Even with that ruminative expression he would do anything she asks.

Right now my mate was gazing at me up to down. His forest green eyes raked over my features before showing a pensive look. I walked over to him and smiled sweetly. I knew he wouldn’t agree to what I am wearing. This dress is fucking sexy and good feast for eyes. With the range of possessiveness he has for me, he wouldn’t agree with it.

“A dress, I told you I bought a dress with Adriana”

He frowned “you say it’s a dress. Most of your skin is already on the view. Change it”

“I couldn’t, ” I replied, “I only have this dress for the party.” I made an innocent face.

He let out a groan “fuck, don’t tell you have the intention of doing this”

I smiled “nope, I wasn’t thinking but I fell in love with this dress as soon as I saw it. And Adriana approved it too. Doesn’t it look good?”

“It’s definitely a sexy dress that I want to tear and fuck you hard but it’s not for other man to see” Azrael leaned and whispered in my ear.

“Come on, we are getting late,” Adriana announced.

“Where do you think you are going after wearing such revealing dress peaches? Do you think you can go out looking like this?” Alpha Cassius’s voice follows her.

“Why can’t I?” Adriana frowned, “Savannah invited us personally, if we don’t go she will be upset. Do you want our newly built friendship to get ruined like this? How can you do that Cassius?”

Alpha Cassius grabbed her by her waist and pulled her to him making her gasp “I know well what are you planning to do peaches but let me clear the fog in your mind, I am aware of what’s going on that mind of yours. Even if you win this round, the result will be what I want to be” His voice was deep and hard. I can see Adriana trembling in his hold. She knew this was coming yet this woman didn’t back away.

“Same goes with you darling” Azrael whispered again. “You know how intolerant I am when it comes to you. I would want to fucking poke every eyes that will look on your body. This body should only be mine to see”

I sighed in my heart. Even if his words make me shiver, I still want to go against it and test his patience. Adriana said it right, to provoke your man till they are enraged enough to punish you. Even the punishment will be worth it. I had taken the chance and I also knew what’s coming for me. And I am looking forward to it. I couldn’t wait to have him inside me hard and deep.

“Let’s go ” Alpha Cassius said after some time. He pulled back, straightening himself and holding Adriana close to him. “We can’t get late, it will take hours to reach Dark Forest”

“Got it” Azrael nodded and grabbed my wrist before pulling me with him. As we walked towards the waiting cars, Adriana turned and winked at me with a grin. I couldn’t help but laugh secretly. Looks like our plan was worthwhile in every way.

Revisiting Dark Forest after two years is like a fresh start. Last time I left this place, my heart was filled with unexplainable emotions. I vowed to never come back again. But returning here again, I don’t have that heavy heart anymore. I held Azrael’s arm as we walked towards the glorious pack house. It was decorated beautifully with string lights and baby stuff. Though the matter of the baby always hurts me, I have reminded myself to feel happy for Savannah. Even if I couldn’t have one, at least I could be happy for others.

“You are finally here” Savannah and Alpha Hardwick welcomed us with a smile. She was holding her baby boy who was the mirror image of Alpha Hardwick.

“I hope we are not late” I smiled and hugged her.

“Of course not. The party just started yet” Savannah looked beautiful with her long mermaid dress. Her hair was styled at the side with a beautiful hair clip keeping it in place. “Here, meet him, the naughty one in the pack”

I looked at the handsome baby who was looking at us in wonder. His purple eyes are staring at us like he was trying to put our images in his little mind. I couldn’t resist anymore and reached out stroking his soft cheek.

“Such a handsome boy” I smiled, “what’s his name?”

“Aldric,” Savannah replied.

“Aldric ” I whispered, “you really got a strong name for him. I guess this little guy will become just like his father when he grew up”

Savannah chuckled, “he even looks like his father”.

“True” I nodded with a smile.

“Let’s go, there are so many people I want you to meet. My family is already there”

My smile suddenly dropped when I heard her. Her family? Of course how could I expect that they won’t be here. Her family must be holding grudges because of what happened in the past. Afterall, the transgression of my family was too heavy to lift. My parents had snatched their daughter and raised her in such poor condition without giving any respect. They grabbed the opportunity to love their daughter for years. I don’t want to think of the pain they had gone through. And in the end it was all our fault.

“Reese? Are you alright?” Savannah asked again. Her eyes were showing concern.

“I….” I don’t know what to answer her. Suddenly I felt Azrael’s hand on my back rubbing slowly, it was like encouraging me to speak, to hold my emotion correctly.

I sighed and flashed a smile feeling confident “of course, I guess it’s time to meet them personally. Last time I didn’t get the chance to do so. I would like to meet them”

Savannah smiled “great, they will be happy to see you. Come on”

I turned to Azrael who smiled at me. I nodded at him then I looked at Adriana who gave an encouraging smile. Alpha Hardwick was with Adriana and her mate. Gathering all the courage I have in me, I followed Savannah. Azrael was beside me, and I am glad about that. He knows how to handle me in this tough situation. Soon I can see her family standing at the side chatting with others. Savannah led us towards them.

“Mom, look who is here” Savannah said cheerfully as she pointed at me “Reese”. Several eyes fell on me making my heart beat rise.

“You can do this Reese’ I chanted inwardly while flashing a small smile on my face.

“Ah, Reese my dear” Savannah’ mom smiled. She walked to me and held my hands “finally, after such a long time I got the chance to meet you”

“I am sorry, I left last time in a hurry and didn’t get the chance to apologize to you personally” I replied.

“Don’t you think it’s too late for that?” I heard a cold voice. I looked over to see purple eyes glaring at me. Looking at his eyes I felt like he wanted to snap my head off my body. I heaved a sigh.

“I know, whatever crime my parents had done in the past is unforgivable. And I won’t ask you to forgive too. Since childhood I didn’t know they kidnapped Savannah. When I got to know the truth I was already under their manipulation” I turned to look at Savannah who was looking at me, “I am sorry, I have always tainted you with my sins and made you suffer. I never considered the feeling of compassion, benevolence and mortality yet I went on choosing the wrong path which not only led me to the tragic end but I have dragged others too” I glanced at Azrael this time. Wanting to ask for his forgiveness again. So sighing I focused my attention on Luna Astrea again. “I have no words to describe how remorseful I am. Even so, if you could forgive me I will be glad and even if you don’t I will accept that”

Luna Astrea smiled and squeezed my hand gently “dear, it’s not your fault. I know past misdeeds are hard to correct but for us you have already atoned for it when you decided to save Savannah from Avan. You have proved that you still have a good heart. You don’t have to seek forgiveness dear, you have already earned it with your action” her voice was such a sweet sound that washed my guilty heart. I couldn’t help but sob as she hugged me warmly. For the first time in my life I felt what it is called to be a motherly feeling.
