I ran and ran and ran, crossing the threshold of the college and entering inside the hallways. Classes were going on but my head was filled with madness. I was heaving. My breaths were coming out quick and heavy. My hands and feets and body were hurting but nothing in the world could stop me.
I reached the end of the hallway where not even the souls of ghosts would dare to be present. Darkness was surrounding me, making it impossible for me to see anything. I lifted my hands up in front of me to watch them shake terribly.
How the fuck was it possible?
Why?
Why now?
I was afraid. Fear was in every cell of my body and I was not ready to let it burst out of me, making me fall unconscious and helpless. I fell down on my knees.
'It is okay,' I told myself, 'Do not be afraid. It is all okay!'
I was not afraid because I was in love with someone else or I did not need a mate like him or I did not like his stupid attitude or temper or ego or anything that I had not seen till now.
I was afraid of him finding out. About me.
About my weaknesses. About everything that was not right with me and about everything that could go wrong after being with me. I was afraid of him feeling superior to me. I was afraid of his rejection to me.
I knew he was not going to like when finding out about me being his mate but I could not shake away the tiny hope. The hope that said, what if you are wrong?
A few minutes later when my freakout was over, I stood up and instantly winced in pain. Damn, forgot about the accident. I tried to have a look at my toe but everything was too dark and my toe was a blur.
Fucking fucking fucking hell!
My glasses!
I groaned in annoyance and started to bang my head on the nearest wall. They must have fallen off when his car had hit me. And I do not know even his name. Or his address. Or the class that he studies in.
Fuckity fuck!
I hit my head with my palm and instantly winced in pain again. I limped my way towards the exit once again. Probably I will find my glasses there. Or probably I will find.. him.
When I had rushed here I had not realized how much in pain I was but now the pain was almost unbearable.
"Bella?" A manly voice rang in the empty hallway behind me.
I turned around and before I knew it, I was already hit with a brick wall. Or probably that was just a hard as a rock chest. Musky, almost chocolaty scent filled my nose and surrounded my world with the aura.
"Agghhh!" I groaned loudly and tried to pull back from the soul crushing hug that was choking me to death. Whoever was crushing me pulled back but kept his hands on my arms,
"Oh, how I missed you these past three months, sweetheart."
My gaze went up to his face and immediately my hands went limp and fell down on my side.
This can not be happening.
This can not happen to me.
Oh God!
I had run away from my past. From the school that tormented me for so many years. From the person who was standing in front of me, because he was the one who leaded the way of those abuses. Had he followed me here or was it just a coincidence?
And then suddenly blackness covered my vision. I was not able to keep control of my own body as it fell forward, colliding with the same hard body once again and falling down on the ground.
I was prepared to feel pain and suffering and more pain but nothing came. As I was falling down in the well of dark depth, I felt hands coming around my waist and lifting me up.
The hands who had always lifted to accuse me of useless lies and jokes, had just claimed my body in his chest, lifting my unconscious body up carefully and taking me with himself.
My eyes opened with a start hearing the sound of flesh hitting flesh. As I tried to sit upright, instantly pain shot up in my whole body. My eyes opened and the sight in front of me had me shot up from my seat. "What the fuck?" No other words could make my feeling more apparent. In front of my eyes, the guy who had hit me with his car..my mate, and the guy I hated most in the world, Jax, were hitting each other brutally. Jax had gotten overpowered byhimand was getting unabashedly punched. Oh boy. Even though the sight pleased me, 'cause let's see, I am not any cruelty freak or violence suppo
I decided to go with the later. He must be worried. I was his mate after all. But I was also stubborn. "Your name." I asked. He ran his hand through his hair in frustration and then said, "Damon Black. Alpha of Golden Lining Pack." Breath left out of my body so fast I thought I was going to die of shock. He was the alpha of Golden Lining Pack? I had heard about him. As the tales and talks travelled through pack to pack, about who was getting stronger and which pack was breaking down, it was very important for us to keep track of the things happening inside our world. And boy, was he famous? Actually he was the strongest of them all. And I am not saying this just to brag or anything but I had heard that he was the True Alpha. Now see, normally alphas were descendent of previous alphas, like their son or daughter. But a True alpha was one who had broken down his boundaries as a lower ranked werewolf and rose to Alpha posi
A few hours ago |Damon's Side of StoryThe dimly lit room was filled with silence. Shivers ran down in everyone's spine as the dangerous aura radiating from the monster striding inside filled the room.His every footstep was like a predator stalking its prey. Arrogance was oozing out of him while a dangerous smirk was covering his lips. His eyes went to the person sitting on a chair in the middle of the room, sweating and shivering profusely.He smirked upon realising his effect on the people present in the room. This is what he craved.Fear.After all, he was Damon Black.He came closer to the person who was sitting in the middle of the room, surrounded by at least ten other men. He grabbed the chair placed in front of his prey and sat down. While staring rudely at the man in front of him, his captivatingly dangerous gaze made the man gulp his saliva in fear."Alpha, the trace of leaked informa
She ran away without answering him. But he did not need an answer.He stood dumbstruck at the exact same spot for a few more minutes. The thought, the feeling of finding a mate was completely different from what he had planned.This was never what he had expected to feel. This is not what he wanted to feel.Because he had already decided, he was never going to mate. He was never going to end up like his parents. But the sudden blast of uncontrollable feelings and emotions had rendered him speechless.A couple of minutes later he forced himself to shrug off everything that had gripped his throat in a choking hold and came back to reality.Why had she run?And God, she was bleeding.He walked to his car and could not help himself from slamming his fist down on the hood in frustration and regret.He was not able to push back the thought of her running away from him. He was not able to gulp down his anger at him
I did not think, I did not wait, I did not even care about what she would think about me. I stormed forward, grabbed the collar of the motherfucker by the neck from behind, and snatched him away from her. The idiot instantly stumbled back, but I did not give him a chance to process what was happening. I lifted my hand and slammed my fist in the fucker's face with just enough force to not kill a human. The man in front of me was stronger than I had thought because he turned around instantly to land a punch. But he was overpowered by me. My fist landed again and again on him, hitting him with a stronger force than the last one. The man getting pummeled by me tried to dodge my attack and land his own fist but there was no chance in hell I was going to let him. Suddenly the girl that I had hit with my car, my mate, came between us. "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU TWO?" She shouted while managing to squeeze in between me and the human idiot. And t
Bella's POVI returned home. I did not have enough power left inside my body to bear anymore situations today. My body, my heart, my mind, everything was in pain and suffering. And my first day of college had also gotten ruined.When I entered inside, thankfully my parents were not present. To my luck, Kaylie, my older sister was also not at home. Probably out learning another new thing, duh.My parents were doctors. They treated humans and werewolves both. Well, actually in werewolf world, werewolf doctors were not allowed to treat human patients.But because of my 'condition' nobody outside our pack was ready to get treated from us, because they feared my 'disease' will infect them as well and they will become non-werewolf like me.Well, it was okay. It did not matter much since my parents were happy with day to day earnings. Though we were not super rich. We were also not begging on the roads for each penny. And Kaylie, she was
"He... he.. " I hiccoughed between the tears, "He said he can not accept me as his mate."My mother's hand stilled in my hairs for a second, but it was just for that one second.Her hand resumed caressing my hairs once again.She did not assure me, she did not accuse me, she did not ask for any elaboration or explanation. She just removed her hand and knelt down in front of me on her knees to come face to face with me."So what?" She asked."Mom." I whispered through tears."Honey," my mom replied while her hand lifted up to wipe the tears off my face, "Has there ever been a moment that we taught you to be weak?""I know!" I insisted with choked throat, "It just... it just does not feel right in my heart.. you know."I dropped my head to hide my tears away from her."It will get better." She touched the side of my face and caressed softly, "If he is not the one. Then he was never meant to be the one. Everything hap
I got off the bus while cursing my fate in my head so hard, God would have contemplated changing my kismet in sympathy or anger. Now there was not just one blunder waiting ahead of me in my life today. There was a whole freaking mass of it.I quickly crossed the road and entered inside the college premises. There were young guys and girls strutting and walking in every direction.My eyes searched for only one person.And for the first time since my birth, I regretted not having the ability of a stronger scent sense. Because if I had that, I would have been able to smell him from a hundred miles away. Right now I could not recognize his scent even in a few feet radius of my college."Why you have to be so cruel to me all the time?" I looked up at the sky and begged for mercy.But God had some other plan."What are you praying for?" A voice whispered in my left ear.I instantly jumped in surprise and moved a few steps away. Jax was stan
