Book 2- Chapter 35
“Yes, Yes, Yes!! I will marry you, Artemis.” She agreed and took the red roses from his hand. Artemis grinned and took out the ring box from his pocket and opened it for her not before saying cheesy lines again.
“I without you is like a nerd without braces, A shoe without laces, aSentenceWithoutSpaces.” With this, he slipped a black diamond ring on her ring finger. He knew it was not expensive as other diamonds, but his mate wanted something that she liked rather than gifting something that was expensive, and she wouldn’t wear.
Caroline sat down on both her knee after Artemis finally slipped the ring on her finger. She also made Artemis sit on both her knees before trying a cheesy line, just like him.
“Your lips look lonely. Would they like to meet mine?” She asked with a sly smile on her lips.
“Oh! My, My… Not bad, darling. You’re learning from me.” Artemis laughed before nodding and letting Caroline initiate the kiss. Artemis wasn’t surprised when they kissed each other without any trouble with water while the other needed scuba gear.
‘I guess photos and videos are done. Now, everyone can leave.’ Artemis mind-linked everyone. ‘Especially you, Aiden.’
‘Okay! Mr. Gosling. Noted, Alpha Heir!’ By saying this, everyone left, leaving Caroline and Artemis to spend some time together.
Breaking the kiss and Caroline panted softly. “You breathe oxygen, too? We have so much in common.” Artemis pointed out, on which Caroline smacked at his heart softly. “Mate!!” Bolt took control over Artemis’s body once the surprise of Artemis.
“Hey, Bolt.”
“Can I mark you now and here?” He asked, getting excited. Earlier, they had decided to mark her after coming out of the water at some suite or now that they were comfortable even in the water. So, Bolt didn’t want to wait long.
“I would have said yes but NO, bolt.” Caroline denied his request. “When you will mark me, then there can be a chance that my blood can get mixed in water, and it will be injurious for others. And I will be dangerous to humankind or any other animal, and then Hunters will start chasing me like a dog until I will be killed.”
“Oh,” Bolt’s expression changed immediately. He knew that fact, so he didn’t force her and but immediately, the water around them parted all of a sudden, like the moment when baby Moana was trying to collect a sea shell. He looked at her mate, whose eyes and Talismans were glowing.
“Did I ever tell you that sad face doesn’t suit you?” Caroline questioned. Bolt was quick to quickly her roughly, nibbling her lips, and then he slowly kissed her all over the neck, holding his mate’s frame in his arms. He licked the area between her neck and shoulder where his mark was going to appear. His canine started appearing, and in no time, it punched her skin. Caroline grabbed him tightly because of pain and should pain turned into pleasure when he started licking her wound where he had marked her for closing her skin. Bolt made sure not a signal drop of her blood would have landed on the ground.
“Bolt.. are you done? I’m… feeling weak, and so do my powers.” Caroline whispered.
“Yes, done, mate!! It’s done.” The moment Caroline heard this, she closed her eyes, holding Artemis, and soon they were hit by a wave of water. Unlike the last time, Artemis wasn’t able to speak in water. Holding Caroline close to him, he swam upward.
‘Why did she faint?’ Artemis asked, getting worried.
‘Maybe because her body is trying to adjust with our mark.’ Bolt reasoned out. But even he wasn’t sure of his reason.

“Caroline! Caroline!” Caroline heard her name being called by some female, but she wondered who was calling her. But the voice was unfamiliar. Most of her family members call her ‘Caro’ while her siblings call her ‘Sarah.’ Yes, her friends used to call her by her full name, but who was this friend whose voice was unfamiliar?
“Uurrgghh.. Caroline!” Now she heard someone growling at her.
In no time, Caroline opened her eyes, ready to attack if needed, but all she could was a black raven wolf with green almond eyes looking at her, and that wolf didn’t look like trouble or danger.
Caroline looked around and found everything black around her.
“We are in your mind.” The wolf in front of her spoke, shocking Caroline.
“A wolf is talking to me?” She asked in surprise. “And if we’re in my mind, then what are you doing here?” She questioned.
“I’m Shaba, your wolf.” The wolf in front of her replied. Caroline kept looking at her for a while before speaking.
“I think I’m dreaming. I’m not a werewolf as far as I know, for there’s no way I can have a wolf. Moreover, how can I believe you that you’re my wolf? Do you have any proof?” She questioned and looked at the wolf.
Silence.
Both kept looking at each other for a while. Shaba wanted her human head.
‘Is she idiot or dumb?’ She thought. ‘Just look at her and then look at me.’ She thought again. And Caroline could hear her thoughts loud and clear, and then she compared the similarity between the wolf and her. Raven black wolf, just like the color of her hair and green eyes, just like her.
“How… how is this possible?” Caroline asked, still having a hard time believing that she had a wolf now.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
“When our mate marked you or said bit you. Your body absorbed the power of wolf with wolf soul.” Shaba explained.
“Is Bolt alright?” Caroline asked quickly.
