Nick's POV
A week has passed since I returned from the cursed mountains and the pack has gradually begun rebuilding itself.
A lot of things have changed since we got back, a few people who felt they needed to go their way were given the opportunity of leaving but with the option of never returning.
These categories of people were mostly those who had a strong tie with either Miranda or Richard.
We are also yet to hear from Richard and Bella and it is safe to safe that they are gone for good.
Harry has since returned to the human territory as he needed to see his mum and tell her a final goodbye as he has decided to come live in the pack with us.
We are still trying to help Simeon get back his tongue, but he honestly is getting so good with his sign language.
He also can communicate efficiently now with his mind link as he has let go of much of the trauma he suffered.
I guess the feeling of having your best friend as King is the best therapy after all.
The only person that is yet to come with her new reality is Kyle, she is been keeping to herself lately, and all efforts to help her lively up have been relinquished.
It bothers me a lot, as I so much want to share in her burden. No matter how much I have succeeded, I still feel like I have failed woefully in my most important duty of keeping my mate happy.
Since I returned from the cursed mountains, she has been using the excuse of wanting some time for herself to stay away from me.
It hurts, but there is little or nothing I can do to make her happy as I have tried all within my power.
Sometimes I can't help but remember what black said about Kyle becoming like her mother.
I have done lots of things to help her come out of her mood, I understand that she feels that most people in the pack know that she is Miranda's daughter.
She thinks they do not like her due to the way Miranda treated them, but I have tried to tell her that she can't change what people think about her and that what matters is what she thinks of herself.
There is going to be a three days celebration starting tonight to Mark the beginning of my reign as King. A lot of activities are been put in place as we have invited everyone to come to join in the celebration.
“Hey your highness, what seems to bother you?” I heard Simeon ask through the mind link
I wondered how he got to know I was bothered by something as I looked around me to see if I could get a glimpse of him.
I was standing absentmindedly on the terrace and watching the view of my pack.
He waved his hands with a smile as he tries to get my attention, I saw him and smiled back.
“I'm fine just trying to get some fresh air,” I replied to him through the mind link.
I didn't want to bother him by telling him that kyle was secretly driving me insane.
After then I heard a sound from inside my room and I went back in to see what was the cause of the sound.
I was using my late father's room, although most of the things in the room had been changed to match kyle's taste as I wanted her to feel as much comfort as she can get.
As I walked in I saw kyle picking up broken glass cups from the floor.
“Call the maids to come clear that up,” I said to her. But she pretended not to hear me as she kept herself busy by picking up the broken glasses.
I sighed tiredly.
After which, I walked over to where she was and squatted to join her pick up the broken pieces.
As I bent down I noticed she had pricked her finger and blood was coming out of it, I became angry.
“Drop the glasses,” I said calmly to her, as I tried so much not to show the pain of seeing her hand bring out the blood.
She refused to listen to me as she kept doing what she was doing as if she did not hear me just speak to her.
“Leave the glasses,” I barked at her and my voice made her tremble in fear. And in anger, I pulled her by the hand and had her back smashed against a close-by wall.
My wolf has been wincing in pain since her constant refusal to let him come close to her.
I have been trying to understand all that has been going on with her, but I can't help myself if she decides to hurt herself in any way, be it by mistake or intention.
“Kyle, I have been trying to be understanding and patient with you, but you must understand something and that is the fact that I am your alpha and that means you must at all times obey and do all that I tell you,” I said to her, trying to control the anger that was brewing within me.
But her little sobs and the tears that had begun to fill her eyes softens my heart as I never intentionally wanted to hurt her.
“I'm sorry,” I said as every bit of her pain shredded my heart to pieces. I pulled her into my hands and I was glad she didn't fight me off this time.
“I don't know if you know this kyle but I love you a lot and it doesn't matter what others say about you. what matters is what I think about you, and I think you are the most amazing person that they are yet to know about,” I said, as I ran my hands over her back to try and smoothen her pains.
Instinctively, I started running kisses along her neckline as I tease my mark with my lips.
“I love you so much kyle,” I whispered to her ear before pulling her out of the hug so she can look me in the eyes.
“I need you,” I whispered to her as she unconsciously bit her lower lip and that I guess was all the consent I needed from her.
My lips crashed against hers as I carried her bridal style to our bed to make sweet love.
****
Later that evening, the entire pack was bursting with life as different people were seen dressed colorfully for the party. The music was loud with lots of refreshments being served.
I was returning to my room to get dressed for the party as I had early gone out to ensure that the safety of everyone present, was prioritized.
My jaw was left hanging as soon as I opened the door to see kyle exquisitely beautiful in a black short dress she had on.
Her makeup was as naturally beautiful that the only thing noticeable about it was her glossy sweet pink lips. Or maybe that is the only thing I chose to see.
Her lips were looking so sumptuous, so kissable.
“Your highness," the voice of the makeup artiste, who had her head bowed along with the other maids with her, brought back my senses as I tried to quickly compose myself in their presence.
“Thank you so much,” kyle said to the lady as she demises her along with the others that were her.
The room soon became empty with just the two of us. And to say I was stunned by her beauty would be an understatement.
“You look amazing,” I complimented her as I threw my hands around her tiny waist. She smiled and her eyes shone like a diamond in the dark.
“Thank you,” she mumbled as she revealed her perfect set of teeth in an enchanted smile.
My head starts titling towards her lips as I was eager to taste these sumptuous lips of hers, but she was quick to stop me by placing one finger on my lips and slightly pushing me away.
“You don't want to ruin my makeup,” she said as little chuckles escaped her lips.
“I thought the makeup was done because of me,” I said a little bit disappointed that she stopped me.
“You wish,” she said teasingly.
“You need to get ready King Ivar, you don't want to keep your guest waiting,” she said and made to walk away from me when I pulled her closer.
“If they are my guest, then they can wait for as long as I deem fit,” I said and before she could react I took her lips into mine and it tasted like vanilla ice cream.
Even though she resisted initially, she soon matched my energy as we both fought for dominance.
I pushed her against the wall and pulled her dress up to see that she was wearing a beautiful white transparent lace.
Fuck.
She drives me fucking crazy and right now nothing would make me happier than to have my rod buried within her already moist folds.
I pulled her pant down and gently inserted two of my fingers into her already dripping pussy and she blessed me with the most erotic soundtrack that felt like music to my ears.
I knew I had to hasten up things before she completely drives me nuts. And I quickly reached for my zip and brought out my already hardened rod.
I gently slipped it in and oh, how fucking fabulous it felt as I started stroking her hard and slowly.
I ensured that each stroke leaves her with the complete feeling of fullness so she craves and wants me more when I pulled out.
I was taking my time and she knew this, as pushed her tiny beautiful ass towards me for me to punish and torture her more.
“Please,” she moaned as her body shivered under my hold.
“As you wish, my luna,” I whispered into her ears as I started pumping in and out of her vigorously.
Oh yes!
Fuck!
Ivar!
“Yes say my name,”
“Oh, Ivar” she cried as she reached her highest peak shivering as I continued pumping the fuck out of her juicy pussy till I felt myself loading her with all my seeds.
I groaned and held on tight to her while I tried to catch my breath.
“Now, let's shower and get ready for the party together,” I whispered to her ear while nibbling gently on it.
