< The Moon Goddess' Cruelest Blessing Claim I felt her body tremble, not from fear but from the weight of that promise-the unspoken promise that you're in for it later. And before she could even argue, before she could throw out some half-assed excuse, he scooped her up, carrying her like she weighed nothing, like she belonged nowhere else but in his arms. His grip was unshakable, a force of nature as if daring anyone to f*****g try and take her from him. I barely had time to process it before his eyes flicked to me.
The intensity in that look slammed into me like a tidal wave, and for a second-just a second-l forgot how to breathe out of fear. It wasn't anger. It wasn't even disapproval. It was something worse. Pity. He knew. It was knowing. Seeing. Like he was peeling back my layers, ripping through every carefully built wall, and reading every single doubt, every ache, every whispered fear I tried so hard to drown in alcohol. Like he could see right through me to the truth I didn't want to face. That Ethan never really let me go. That the Moon Goddess never chose me.
Deep down, I had always been waiting-hoping-that someone would pick me and claim me the way Theo did Lila. That someone would hold onto me like they couldn't f*****g breathe without me. Just the way Theo looked at Lila. But no one had. No one ever did. And suddenly, everything-the alcohol, the insecurities, the aching weight in my chest-felt so small compared to what I felt from that one look alone. I turned away "Theo, wait." Lila clutched his arm, wobbling slightly but her voice was firm. "I know I f****d up, and I'll deal with my brothers, but Rhea's had a rough day.
She could've left me passed out on the bar floor, but she didn't. She took care of me when she had every reason not to. She needs to come with us." She tilted her head, eyes pleading. "Please Theo's jaw clenched, his eyes flicking to me like I was some sort of problem he had to solve. I knew he wasn't thrilled, and for a second, I thought he'd just say no and be done with it. But after a long, tension-filled moment, he exhaled through his nose. 8/11 < The Moon Goddess' Cruelest Blessing Claim "Fine. She can come." His voice was sharp, clipped.
Then his gaze snapped back to Lila, and his lips curled into something dangerous. "But you, my love, are not getting off that easily." I swallowed hard, a weird knot forming in my stomach. The packhouse was the last place I wanted to be. I had spent my entire life avoiding it as much as possible, even though I loved my adoptive parents and knew they loved me. But it wasn't them-it was the pack. Everyone knew I wasn't really one of them.
I was the pack's charge-a fancy way of saying we don't know where the f**k she came from, so I guess we'll raise her out of obligation until someone adopts her. Everyone knew the story: a baby left at the border with nothing but a satchel holding my birthday and a blanket with diamonds sewn into one side. No family name. No past. Just me. People treated me well enough, but there was always this underlying pity-the constant, unspoken reminder that I didn't belong. And after a while, I just couldn't take it anymore. So, yeah.
The last thing I wanted was to go back there and have to deal with more whispers. More sad smiles. More f*****g pity. By tomorrow, everyone will know about Ethan and me. I took a breath. "Lila, I'm fine. You don't have to drag me into this. I'll be okay on my own-" Her expression hardened before I could finish. "Rhea." She crossed her arms, swaying slightly but still deadly serious. "If you don't come with me, I'll think you don't consider me a friend." Then, her lips curved into a smirk. "And you know I'm not above blackmail." I groaned. "You suck." Lila grinned.
"And yet, here you are." Theo checked his watch, and his patience was clearly wearing thin. I sighed, giving in. Lila squealed, nearly strangling me with her hug before she turned to say goodbye to everyone. Then, Finn-dumbass that he was-stepped up to hug her. He didn't even get close before Luca's arm snapped around her waist and yanked her back against his chest, a low growl rumbling from deep in his throat. "Mine". His voice was a warning. His eyes locked onto Finn like he was one second away from ripping out his throat. Finn just smirked, hands raised. "Relax, dude.

Just saying bye." Luca didn't look remotely relaxed. The car ride back to the packhouse was tense as f**k. 9/11 < The Moon Goddess' Cruelest Blessing Lila and Theo whispered back and forth-her drunkenly giggling one second, him growling in frustration the next-while I sat in the back, staring but the window, trying not to think about tonight. But my mind didn't listen. Instead, it went straight to Ethan. To Nora. Claim To the way, he looked at her like she was his world ke he couldn't breathe without her. Like she was something precious, something *his*. He had never looked at me like that.
I stared down at the red lace peeking from under my dress. Useless. A pathetic attempt to feel wanted for once in my life. God, I was such a f*****g cliché. By the time we pulled up to the massive wrought-iron gates of the packhouse, a weird, uneasy feeling settled over me. The kind that whispered, Everything is about to change. I shook it off. Theo parked, stepping out with effortless ease before turning to help Lila. His fingers curled around her waist, possessive, his lips brushing her ear as he whispered something that made her blush and press her thighs together. I wrinkled my nose.
"Yuck." Theo didn't even look at me. Instead, he extended a hand. I hesitated. And then, just as I took it, a gust of wind swept over me. And I felt it. Not one presence. Four. A shiver ran down my spine as towering figures stepped out of the darkness, their presence curling around me, sinking into my bones like a slow, insidious claim. Callum. Jaxon. Rory. Seth. The Caine quadruplets. They moved as one, their identical gazes locking onto me with an intensity that made my breath catch.
10/11 < The Moon Goddess' Cruelest Blessing "Mine." The word was a growl, spoken in perfect, eerie unison, dripping with possession. I barely had time to process it, to react, to do anything- Before the world went dark. Comments LUCK DRAW > Vote 356 Claim < The Moon Goddess' Cruelest Blessing (2) The Moon Goddess' Cruelest Blessing (2) "You can fight it, little Luna, but we'll make you beg to belong to us." - Jaxon Caine Seth's POV Claima The Alpha meeting had been torture.
Watching smug Alphas curl their fingers possessively around their Lunas' throats, their fangs brushing delicate skin, murmuring low, filthy promises into their ears-my wolf was on edge the entire f*****g time. He wanted that. We needed that. The ache was unbearable, clawing at my insides, and I could feel my brothers suffering the same way. Callum was tense as hell, barely keeping it together. Jaxon was silent, his wolf pacing just as violently as mine. And Rory? He looked like he wanted to break something-or someone. The meeting was bullshit. We needed to find her.
And yet, after all that, I still tried drowning the ache the only way I knew how-burying myself in someone else. I barely got Ivy through the door after Theo left, all huffing and puffing before she was on me, clawing at my shirt, her nails raking over my skin like she was trying to mark me, own me. Her lips were hot, desperate, dragging over my jaw and my throat, her tongue flicking against my pulse. She was breathing hard, her body already trembling already needy. I let her.
I let her moan as I shoved her against the wall, her breath hitching as I crushed my mouth to hers, biting down on her lower lip until she whimpered. My hands were rough, unforgiving, tearing at the fabric of her dress, yanking it up over her hips. "No teasing," she gasped, grinding against me, her soaked panties already dark with need. "Please. " I wasn't planning on teasing. I shoved my hand between her thighs, palming her, feeling how f*****g drenched she was. Ivy sobbed my name as I pushed my fingers inside her, stretching her, thrusting deep and slow, feeling her tighten, quiver, cling.
She was dripping, slick, coating my knuckles as I f****d her with my hand, grinding my thumb against her c**t until she writhed. < The Moon Goddess' Cruelest Blessing (2) "Ride it," I growled, voice thick, rough, dark. She did. Claim She f****d herself against my hand, panting, desperate, her moans sharp and high as I curled my fingers, pressing against that spot that made her entire body shudder. She was loud, soaking, her walls fluttering around me as she started to fall apart. I ripped my fingers from her, gripping her throat, making her whimper as I licked them clean, tasting her.
"Get on the bed." She stumbled back, her eyes glassy, lips swollen. I didn't wait-I spun her around and forced her onto all fours, yanking her panties down and spreading her legs wide. My c**k was already painfully hard, pulsing, aching. I fisted myself, dragging the thick head against her drenched folds, feeling how hot, how wet, how ready she was. And then I slammed inside her. Ivy screamed, arching, gripping the sheets as I buried myself to the hilt, stretching her, filling her completely.
She was tight, gripping me like a vice as I started to move, ruthless, brutal, f*****g her deep, hard, chasing my own pleasure. But it wasn't enough. Every moan, every breathless Alpha, every desperate please-they all felt wrong. Not her. My wolf snapped inside me, disgust curling in my gut, rage licking at my spine. Get her out. I clenched my jaw, muscles locking as I pounded into her harder, trying to lose myself in the heat, in the slick, in the mindless f*****g. But my body knew the truth. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.
I growled, yanked out, and gripped her hips as I finished over her ass, releasing with a sharp, frustrated groan. The high was weak, hollow, empty I reached for a towel and threw it at her. "Not tonight, Ivy." She turned, pouting, still panting, her skin flushed. "But-" She reached for me, crawling across the bed, her hands on my chest, her lips parting to beg. I snapped. My growl ripped through the air, low, guttural, vibrating the walls. Ivy flinched, eyes going wide, 2/2 < The Moon Goddess' Cruelest Blessing (2) body curling in on itself.
"Leave." She scrambled, grabbed her clothes, and ran. And I sat there, hard, furious, f*****g empty. Then- I smelled her. Roses and tuberose.Sweet and sinful. Claim My body locked up so hard I damn near collapsed. My d**k stirred instantly, a deep, throbbing ache flooding my veins. My wolf's snarl turned into a f*****g howl. 'MATE!' I staggered forward, mind blank, body moving on pure f*****g instinct. And then-I saw her. Holy. f*****g. Hell. She was standing there like a goddamn dream, silver hair spilling down her back, her dress tight, short, sinful. And the curve of her hips?
The softness of her thighs? Made for us. My mouth dried as I imagined that dress on the floor, her bare beneath me, her skin slick with sweat, her thighs trembling as she moaned for more. 'f**k, imagine how she smells between her thighs,' my wolf groaned, my entire body tightening painfully hard. And then- My brothers were there. And we growled in unison "MINE." Callum's POV: I heard the car before I saw it. The second Theo mind-linked me, I was already moving, my brothers at my back, on edge like a f*****g pack of wolves ready to devour something whole.
But nothing prepared me for the scent that hit us all at once. Tuberose. Roses. 3/7 admin
