Everything was a bit blurry to me. One second Jay tackled down the hunter who came inside the room, and the next thing I knew there was loud screaming within the house. People were cussing around and then follow by gunshots and howls. 'Wait only wolves can howl?' Eliz whimpers. Footsteps were heard moving to the other side. Metal and furniture in the hallway were being thrown everywhere. However, I stood there in shock trying to comprehend what is going on. Jay, after killing the hunter who is now lifeless on the ground, grabbed my hand and made our way out of the room. He runs to wherever he is taking me. I don't fully trust him but he is my only hope to escape for now. We kept running down the hallway. The house was indeed huge. I remember Jay says he's a human but seriously his speed was of someone who is a werewolf. When we got to the living room bodies were lying everywhere and that's when I saw a big black wolf bathed with blood standing in the corner. It snarls at Jay barin
"He did it again," I told Aberdeen as I cried in her arms while she rocks me back and forth like a child. "I thought of giving him a chance but he chose her over me." I still couldn't control my emotions. "It hurts so much Aber, first off he kills me and now he kills me again yesterday. He left me there to die," I cried.Aberdeen hushes me but I just couldn't stop right away. I didn't know how and when I fell asleep in her arms. I woke up to the sunlight shining through my room's window. I got up from the bed and went to get ready. Looking in my mirror after taking a shower I told myself that I won't let him or anyone degrade me again. Twice is enough. I pick out a high waist skirt that reaches right above my knee and an off-shoulder spaghetti top. Then I put on my wedges and did a little bit of my makeup. Afterward, I walk back to my nightstand to retrieve my small purse. I turn around and shriek aloud when Aberdeen surprises me in the room. I scolded her "what the hell Aber?" My
"Elle, were you even listening?" Josh asked me with a bit of disappointment. Smiling around foolishly I decided to do what others do even though it was a crazy idea."Yes, Alpha I did" I lied to him, hoping he doesn't see right through it.'No, you didn't' Eliz's counterpart through our link. 'So help save us here. I know you were paying attention, Eliz,' I replied and hope she would help me out.'Well guess what? Not this time human,' she stubbornly ignores my plea. 'Eliz, just help me out this one time please' I beg her again in my head.I know that she did listen. Eliz is always the one who pays attention when it comes to meetings in our pack and she never misses any details of it. While me, her human side wants to be out of there every time they discuss war against rogues and war against hunters. I am not a very good student"And your answer to that?" this time it was the Moonbridge Alpha who asked. I glare at him and link to Eliz again. 'Eliz' I groan and she hurriedly told me wh
Claire gave me a warning look as she slams her hands on the table. She then accusingly pointed a finger at me. "Bullshit! and oh dear don't roll your eyes at me cause when I do-"I cut off her words and say to her, "oh fuck you, when you do I'll make sure it will stay that way forever."Everyone from the Daluna and Moonbridge pack growls at me including my mate. This made her smirk even more. All I want to do was to wipe that smirk off of her face and if only she was a statue.Serena looked between the two of us and said. "Back to the topic here.... so you," she pointed her finger at me. "You slept with my mate and his brother and look at where it got you?" she grins at me after saying those words. I could see that she was trying to embarrass me in front of everyone. "Now what? You're moving towards him?" Serena added on and pointed to Eric, then to Josh which Josh in defense slams his fist on the table and gave her a warning look. Nobody knows my mate except Claire and Aberdeen. I ju
Flashback: 4 years ago19-year-old Elle"Why did you do it, Elle?" My father yell at me as he threw the couch to the other side and I cowered away to a corner of our house."They were our Alpha's sons and one of them was your best friend's mate, why?" he asked again but I didn't reply.I could hear my mother sobbing in the kitchen. "Damn it, Elle! Why? I thought you weren't like those girls."I wanted to cry even more upon hearing my dad's words."You have disgraced us and if tomorrow comes I want you out of this house and this pack. You're not my daughter!" he shouted at last.My mother came into the living room blowing her nose with a tissue "Go to your room Elle, your father and I need to talk," she told me and I walk out of the living room.Instead of going to my room, I hid behind a wall listening in. I heard them talking and my mom lashing out at my dad. "Don she's our daughter we can't just push her away and agree to what everyone is thinking. We are her parents Don! Whether she
Present'I'm so proud of you' Eliz sang in my head as we settle down on the grass. 'Me too girl, I'm proud that you're my wolf' I replied and smile through our linksWe had to run into the woods after getting out of that awful and stupid meeting, leaving my poor wedges behind. I cut off my mind links with everyone in our pack. I do not care about anyone's opinion anymore. Eliz and I just need to be alone, so here we are close to the borders watching the sunset before heading back to the packhouse.When we arrive back at the packhouse we saw that all the cars had gone except for two posh vehicles still parked in front of the packhouse.Aberdeen hugs me tightly when she saw me coming. She was sitting on the doorstep waiting for me. I thank the moon goddess for giving me such a wonderful friend who never judges me but only gives me support, unlike some best friends I grew up with."Hey, where did you go?" she asks still hugging me."Just to clear my head" I reply. She pulls back this ti
I physically feel numb from accepting Eric's rejection but on the bright side on an emotional level, I feel good as well. I don't know what happened or how Eric is feeling after the acceptance of his stupidity. It's not like I care because I don't. Eric already set a boundary between us and I made it clear that it's over. This mate thing is out of my life. I am happy but Eliz is not okay at all.To meditate on the past three days, oh moon goddess tells me all about it again. So many things did happen. Like first on the list, it was me disrespecting other packs of Lunas. Oh, my two sweet enemies who want nothing more than for my head to be on a platter and to be presented in front of them?Second, it was me disrespecting Eric and Aaron. Third, don't forget me to help look for Jea and me moving away from Alcader, and then I have to live with Alpha Aaron Reed. I sometimes wonder what it's like to live with Claire's ex-mate?Lastly, the Alpha's telling me that I'm on the hit list of the
The tears that were overflowing from my eyes a while ago stopped. However, I audibly try to catch my breath. My eyes dart around pulling away from his touch. I didn't understand his words and the way he caress and wipe off my tears. I don't remember meeting him like this but the only time I know he sees me like this was when they left me to die in the hands of the hunters.'Where are we?' I ask Eliz who just woke up and open our link. 'I don't know you tell me,' she said in a sleepy tone then suddenly she screams in alarm through our link. 'Where the hell are we? What did you do with our body?' I look around taking in our surroundings again. I gasp when I am fully aware of my surroundings. Instead of the bedroom, I am actually in the woods. I started to panic and look down at my body. I quickly cover myself with my hands as I am only wearing a flimsy nightgown.I look up at him and then around me. My thoughts keep jumbling. What the hell was I doing out here in the woods? Yet worst
