Zayden
As soon as I got done showering, I hurried and dried my body and hair, put on my clothes and walk out the door. I see my little mate sitting in the chair I left her in but with a book in hand. I slowly walk over to her and lean on the back of the chair. I notice she is reading my favorite book. Catch 22 by Joseph Heller.
“How do you like it so far?” I startled her apparently as she jumped as soon as I asked the question.
“I’m not that far in to it but so far, I like it. I love to read even if I don’t know some of the big words.” She answered looking up to me with a smile.
“That’s good. I’m glad you like it so far. If you ever need help with a word don’t be afraid to ask me okay. I’m here for anything and everything you need.” I said looking her in the eyes.
She nodded as a knock on the door startled us.
“That would be Grey.” I said as
EverleighFor the first time when I wake up, I’m not in any pain. My body isn’t stiff, my neck doesn’t hurt from sleeping wrong and I feel content. Why do I feel happy? I know I need to get up and get my chores started but for the first time I really don’t want to. Normally I get up and start moving around to loosen up these tense muscles.With my eyes not wanting to really open, I groan and go to move the blanket off of me when my hand grazes something firm but soft. I finally open my eyes to see what I touched. When I see that my head is laying on someone’s chest I start to freak out. Then all the memories over the last few days hit me like a mac truck.I start to calm down and slightly move my head to look at the handsome creature next to me. Why did the Moon Goddess grant me an amazing man like this? I don’t deserve him. I don’t deserve anyone. I sigh and start lightly tracing the muscle lines in his
ZaydenI’m dreading the inevitable today. Even though I’m sitting here getting to know my amazingly beautiful mate, I know there is something I have to take care of and stop before Everleigh hears it from someone else.I sigh and tilt her head up to look at me.“My love, there is something I need to take care of. I should only be gone for a few hours at most. Why don’t you go take a bath and relax? I’ll have food brough up for you before I leave.”“Is everything okay, Zayden?” She asked with worry lacing her voice.“Yes baby. I don’t want to upset you but I also don’t want to hide anything.”“Okay?”I take a deep breath trying to steady myself. “My mother has been pressuring me to choose someone to be Luna. If I didn’t, she would choose one for me. Needless to say, I was waiting on you. My mate. But she gave me the timeline
Unknown (Thoughts)Everleigh…. Sigh.Everleigh why did you run away? Why did you leave me? You are mine. You shouldn’t have ran away. I miss you. All of these things constantly run through my head all day, every day. When no one is looking I always sneak to your old sleep quarters. Even though you have been gone a week already your scent is still strong here. You didn’t have much but what you did have and left behind is now my treasures until you return my love.I will get you back. I know where you are. I just need to find a way to get to you. Of course, you had to find your way onto the most ruthless Alpha’s land. I just hope he doesn’t hurt what’s mine. You will be punished for running away from me when I get you back. I know your life here wasn’t fair tails and rainbows but that is how it has to be. It wouldn’t stop when I have you but I will make it bearable for you when we are together. Noth
Zayden I don’t know what happened. One minute I got her going over the edge and the next she screams then passes out. I pick her up and rush her to the infirmary while mind linking the doctor to be on standby because I’m headed that way with Everleigh.Once I step in the doors the doctor has a bed waiting and tells me to put her on it and wheels her straight to a room. I pace back and forth outside the door. I don’t want to go in because I know I will just be in the way. An hour later the doctor comes out.“What’s wrong with her?” I asked.“Honestly, we don’t know. She seems physically fine. We are going to set her up with an EEG. That’s the only thing I didn’t check last time and she might have some type of brain damage. We are also going to do a cat scan to make sure there is no swelling.”“Do what you have to do.”He nodded and went back in to
After Dev leaves, we sit there in silence just looking at each other trying calm ourselves down. I get off the bed and walk over to the table. I didn’t realize how starving I was until I smelled the food. I sit down and start taking the food out of the bags. I look over and see Zayden staring at me. I smile at him before patting the chair next me, telling him to come sit. He slowly gets off the bed and makes his way over. When he sits down, I hand him his food.“Everleigh, would you like to be the Luna of this pack?” He asked me suddenly.I think about it for a minute before asking, “Do you want me as your Luna?”“I do.” He said taking a bite of the soup.“If that is what you would like then yes. I want to make you happy. Just like how you make me happy.” I said smiling at him.He grabs my hand and kisses it. “I don’t want you doing anything you don’t want.”
Everleigh I don’t know what happened. I was in changing my clothes so we could go for a run, all of sudden my hands start tingling and getting warm. When I look down there is a purple glow around them that steadily got stronger. I stopped walking and just kept looking at them. I didn’t feel Zayden come up behind me. When he wrapped his arms around me, it startled me so bad that I turned around and went to push him. But I felt a force come out of my palms. I didn’t see him get thrown back until he was already thrown against the wall. I started to freak out because I seen blood coming out of his head. I ran to the door and started screaming for help. I heard running coming up the stairs. The first person I see is Grey. I start pointing to the room and asking for help trying not to cry. He runs in to the room right as Evan and Dev get to the top heading towards the room too. I slowly step back towards the wall behind me and slide down it. Pulling my kne
EverleighIt’s been a few days since that talk with Evan and true to his word he got me an appointment to talk with his aunt. She’s an interior designer and has been really busy lately. He had to make an appointment with her just so she has the time to talk. I’m getting ready in my room when there is a knock on my door.“Come in.” I said as I was pulling my hair up in a messy bun. I look up and see that it’s Evan.“Are you ready?” He asked.I nod my head, grab my bag and walk out the door. As we head outside to the car a few pack members look at me with questioning eyes. I keep my head down and as close to Evan as I feel comfortable being. He opens my door for me and I get in. As he walks around to the driver side, I get my seat belt on.It takes us 20 minutes to get to get to his aunts business building. It is a single-story A frame building with lots of windows all around. There is
EverleighI’m a wolf! I’m not a Fae. There is no way! I thought to myself. I shook my head and looked at Em.“I think you are mistaken. There is no way I can be a Fae.”“Well, my dear you are not a full Fae. You are half wolf and half Fae. You are a hybrid.”“What the hell? Seriously? How can this be. Zayden is not going to like this.” Evan muttered to himself but not quietly.“The Alpha will have to get over it!” Em snapped at Evan. “Everleigh, I can help you learn that side of you. I have a few friends who are faes. They have taught me a wide variety of things over the years.”“Seriously, I can’t be. My family are all werewolves. Same with my twin brother. He has shown no signs of any type of magic.” I said shaking my head.This makes no sense. How can I be something that no one else in my family is.“My dear, there are possibilities. Someone in your family could be a descendant and the gene could have been dormant. Sometimes it stays that way until something drastic happens and the
