EREBUS POV.“There you go... Your vitals are stable. Willow, the pack doctor had said the green veins are nothing other than paintings and your vitals are stables. you hop onto the next bus and skip town as soon as the day breaks tomorrow.” I added in, utterly annoyed , moving my gaze away from hers as I proceeded towards the entrance.“Erebus wait!” She called out after me while I stooped to a halt, pretty pissed at whatever prank it was that she had all cooped up in her head.“Was this meant to be fun? Really?” I asked again, trying as hard as I could to reel in every bit of anger that I had inside of me. I swallowed hard as her arms curled up around mine.“I can't just help a dramatic approach; besides, it's been four years since we met, and it's fun to see that I still feel the same way about myself. And care about me just like you've always been ” I grabbed her hands, and they slid down to my thighs, pulling her closer.“Don't you even dare Willow; we both agreed the mate bond i
TRIVIAS POV."Crap,” I muttered beneath my breath before storming away from the spot. I felt his grip on my hand become firm, and then I recalled that it was of no use turning about and running baselessly. I swallowed hard before taking my grasp off his palms.“You lied to me, trivia!” He broke off the words; they came out sounding cold and distant. He was pissed, I could tell.“About what?” I asked, trying to play dumb, but obviously, it didn't seem to have worked for him. Knowing I had been the cause of all the ruins, I swallowed hard and held my patience before sticking to my feet.“Really? You intend to do this? Play, make a fool believe better?, great, go ahead, do as you want... I will not stop you, but know this, Erebus; he's worse than I am, and he can never love you as you wish. I'm not saying this to hurt you, but to help you; it's better safe than sorry,” Alaric responded, turning on his feet to walk away from me.“Wait!” I called out to him, and my curiosity washed down
TRIVIA'S POV “WAKE UP! TRIVIA WAKE UP!” The voice called out to me in urgency. I yawned lazily. A cold chill ran down my spine. Slowly, I pushed my eyes open. The continuous grip shook my body, trying to shove me into waking.“Alaric?” I called out slowly, not expecting those words to be the first I said.“Wake up!” He yelled again; he seemed hesitant and desperate. I pushed open the orbs completely to see I was in the middle of the woods; I had fallen asleep on Grass. How was it possible?“Where am I?” I asked, bolting up to my feet hastily. I had nothing on—a light silky gown, which was in no way blocking the cold wind that was blowing harshly against my skin.“I should ask you that: where have you been? All through! It's been four days; you've been missing for four days.” Alaric broke out the words. I watched him with utter confusion, my eyes fixed into his, and I tilted my head slowly, confused by whatever it was that he aimed at.“I'm not getting you; how is it possible? I've o
TRIVIA"What do you mean?" I asked into the phone, my teeth clenched as I tapped nervously against my counter."You've been transferred; that's all I know. You should check your phone; a mail should have gotten in by now," Claire, the only friend I had, responded to the phone."Thanks, I will." With a loud sigh, I kicked against the chair before slumping into it. I worked my ass off today; my knees curled up to my chest as I scrolled through the content of my phone and opened my mail. I muttered a few words of prayer, and there it was.A letter that I had been transferred to some town named Theed—I mean, where the hell does that fit? Instantly, I googled it, but there's not much to it—some shabby lakes, boring stuff about their new high school—apparently they did have some sightseeing about nature.I rolled my eyes in my head before throwing my phone right beside me. I strutted up at the counter, poured myself a glass of beer, and straight away gulped down the whole content.My life
EREBUS POV.Slowly, I glanced down from the window with a heavy heart and confused mind, worried at the gravity of my decisions and the future of my pack. As an alpha, the safety of my pack comes first, but I could not help but think I was letting my emotions get the best of me. The sky had gotten dark out, the clouds had gathered, and thunder struck constantly."It's going to rain soon," a voice called as soon as the doors were pushed open.A smile creeped up the corner of my lips as she walked up to me. Her blue eyes stared into mine as jolts of electricity ran down my spine. While I watched as she bit down on her lips subconsciously as a habit that had formed in her, I gulped hard, trying to take control of myself."It is, and I've really got to get going," I answered. She pulled closer to me before reaching for my cheeks, pinching on them slightly before ruffling my hair with her hands."Be nice to them; father would have wanted this, you know?" Her words trailed off as she starte
TRIVIA POV.warm, soft, delicious…Those were the three senses that registered to me as I sniffed slightly into the air, I tried recalling the previous activities but they seemed to be blocked off by some sort of reason, I popped my eyes open to find myself in an unfamiliar surrounding, I close them shut before popping them open once more but they seemed to look nothing like my room.Just then, I'm hit by panic, fear washing over me once again as I succumb to my inferior thoughts, "Have I been abducted?, am I dead?, where am I?" These questions I ask myself as I remain stiff, my body shakes as a screeching sound comes on, like a door being opened, I hear the tapping of feet drawing closer into the room and I squint my eyes slowly, opening them by only a few inches.A smooth and supple skin, bare back, blond body, brown hair and a towel wrapped just around the torso, I gulp hard as I stare at the embodiment that could be defined as perfect, he bends slightly to pick up a spoon which h
EREBUS POV."Are you insane?!" she blurts out at once, a frown on her face and a look of disgust throwing me into a sudden haze, "I don't know who you think you are young man, but you don't own people" she turns to face Thomas and immediately the look on her face dissolved Into a smile" I have a lot to do, I'm really sorry for the inconvenience, thanks for taking me in and all, do you mind giving me your number?" she asks, shameless just like before.Thomas turns to face me as if asking for permission,"I'm with him little miss, I can't really do that unless he gives me the orders" Thomas responds fondly, the light smile on her face disappears, her cheeks burns red from embarrassment, an emotion I thought she was incapable of, then it furrows down into a frown once more as she glances at me her eyes darting across the room before she grabs her luggage's and bolts out of the room."What was that about?" Thomas asks almost immediately, he had seen the look on my face earlier, and I tilt
TRIVIAS POV.“miss? Are you okay now? Can you hear me?” A strange voice called out, drawing me out of whatever fancy land I had been in all along.I glanced around out of curiosity, my nose getting filled with the heavy scent of antiseptic that made me feel like retching.“For fucks sake, why am I here?” I asked the nurse, who stared at me blankly and then proceeded to eye me curiously.“Are you new in town?” she asked again, batting her eyelashes at me in a questioning glance.“Yes, somehow.“ Just then I realised how much my arm was hurting. I glanced to my side to see a bandage all over my shoulders.“You will be fine in a couple of minutes; although the painkiller will wear off, it will itch a lot, but so far, that's all; it will heal as well,” the nurse explained.“what happened? The last thing I remember was getting lost in the woods with the wild animals.” My gaze popped even wider as I realised my mind was more of a haze; I could not really think much of it anymore.“Your guard
