"Move your leg," Conrad says and tries to push them off the chair in front of me. I shut my werewolf romance book that I was reading and glared up at him."Can't you take another one?" I reply.I can't believe this guy loves to pester me and Eliz. Ever since Aaron took me back to his pack, his Beta wouldn't leave me alone. He always likes to annoy me."Nope!" he pops the p sound and adds on, "I love this chair since the day I set my eyes on it."I scoff at him and put off my legs. However, before he gets the chance to sit on it I kick the chair to the other side. Conrad fell onto the floor and I try to hold in my laughter. It's his turn to glare at me."Oops, my bad but you can have it," I said with a smirk. His glare hardens but I just shrug it off. I move my legs to rest on the next couch and only to rest them on Aaron's lap who just happens to sit on it at the same time. I groan in irritation and try to remove my legs from his lap but he held them there. Aaron and I have become clo
Numb and sore are the only feelings I felt right now.My eyes slowly open, trying to adjust to the bright rays of the light coming through the window. When I successfully open them up, I slowly sit up straight on the bed and take a deep breath while biting my lip as I feel pain in my back. I stay there for a bit to let the pain fade before I turn to the side and force myself to get out of bed.I only stop when I see a fresh jug of water and breakfast already placed on my nightstand beside the bed. Feeling thirsty, I pour a glass of water and gulp it in one go. I ignore the pain in my back and push myself to stand up. Once when I am steady and okay I make my way to the bathroom.Sometime afterward, I clutch the sink on both sides while staring at my reflection in the mirror. 'You look like a train ran over you' Eliz laughs in my head.'And you sounded like the bitchy Claire' I deadpan and she let out a groan before responding, "don't compare me to that tramp." "If you say so," I tease
"And we're done," I say as I slump back on the bed, feeling exhausted from packing my clothes. 'Elle I need to run' Eliz said as she began to jump around in excitement. I close my eyes, pretending to be sleeping. "Please, don't sleep Elle. I want to run. Don't you miss it," she said in a pleading voice. I know that I am not winning against her. So it is better to do what she wants to do. 'Then you're lucky, I still got enough energy left,' I said, standing up to go.As much as I wanted to rush out but first, we have to make sure that the coast was clear as I don't want to crash into anyone especially Claire, Jea, and Eric. When I don't smell any lingering scent in the hallway or see any sign of anybody. "1, 2, 3" I counted before I sprint, slamming the door of our room and running downstairs as fast as I can. We closed the front door and sped away from the pack-house using my werewolf speed.When I made it to the woods, I check our surrounding to see if there was anyone following u
I take a sip of my hot delicious cocoa and fake a smile at my enemies around the breakfast table. It's not like I want to be here in the kitchen with them in the morning. I chose to stay not because Aaron convinced me to stay but because I promised to try and be on good terms with my enemies before leaving this horrific life. I know they deserved to be cursed and befallen a treacherous fate. However, I am good and I wanted to take the high road.'Oh, moon goddess bless this poor child for being a saint,' Eliz keep singing those words in my head and I try so hard to shut her out but she wouldn't. I say this wolf loves to annoy me.And as for Aaron and me. Well, I do not have to lie and say I do not like Aaron at all. Truth is, I think I do but I am not hundred percent sure about it. It's confusing yet that's life and you cannot just force your feelings if you're not sure."If we are to be attacked again then we should be well prepared," said Eric.I blink and snap out of my thoughts. I
The news of Cascarade Pack being wiped out by rogues and hunters made me feel so many different emotions and I am drowning inside. I shouldn't feel this way for them, however, the bad deeds done by others do not define the innocent people and young pups that were living in the Cascarade pack.It was hard to understand how the massacre happened and why we were never being informed about it but when Jay explains to us what happened we then understood. He told us that the Cascarade Pack was attacked on the same day, and the rogues tried to kidnap me. It was a surprise attack that no one was prepared for it and so none of the neighboring and allied packs were informed. The wounded warrior that was carried in here, is the only survivor that has been on the runs from the rogues and hunters for days.I can imagine the horror the warrior went through and I hope he survives as his condition is too critical at the moment. "Jea created the barrier but how did the hunters make it through?" Aaron
'Jea was murdered and Zeus is the traitor.' I thought as I woke up in the familiar surroundings of my room at Aaron's pack. I let out a relieved sigh, knowing that I am safe. I then try twisting around on the bed and surprisingly I don't feel sore or experience any pain.'Thanks to the moon goddess.' The door slam open and Aberdeen walks in surprising me. There's a breakfast in her hands which made her focus on balancing the tray and not knowing that I am awake. I smile at her but the sound of her sniffling as if she's been crying made the smile on my face disappear. My heart goes out to my poor best friend. She must have been so worried."Aber."She stops and glances to see me. I smile at her again and Aber being Aber started to cry. She quickly places the tray on the table near the door and run up to me. She crushed me into a big hug which I returned wholeheartedly. Oh, how I miss my bestie, my one, and an only real friend."You bad girl," she says, pushing pushes me back on the bed
"Eric" I scream as we slowly sit down on the ground with him still in my arms as I keep shaking him. I am trying to keep his open eyes. Tears pour from my eyes as I watch him struggle to breathe."Why did you do that for?" I sob and he says nothing except his breathing is getting weaker. I look around for anyone to help us and saw them standing there in shock. I know it's unexpected but someone needs to get him to the hospital before he dies. "Lucian, he's dying" I scream at him, which snaps him out of his shocking state and run up to help us. "His breath is weaker. Please be quick he needs a healer," I tell him as he picks him up and I help put him on his back. Lucian and I rushed back to the territory premises.When we reach the hospital, I saw Claire running from the other side and in our direction. She looks scared and worried."What happened?" she asks but I just keep sobbing without answering her. "Eric" Claire cries and pushed me aside. She reaches out to Lucian and holds on t
I lay on my bed with my hands on my stomach and eyes staring at the darkness of my room. It had been a while since I woke up and instead of walking around, I stay right there on my back with thoughts running through my head.I had blocked Eliz because I didn't want her to pester me to see Eric. Right now, I want to enjoy this peace before facing another storm. I didn't want to have hopes for my mate as our fate had been doomed before I even came into his life. However, what I want to do is to tell him that I am thankful and that I have forgiven him for everything.It's a good plan for moving forward and for my peace. When I have enough time of thinking, I pull off the sheet from my body and stood up to turn on the lights. I then went to the bathroom to wash my face, letting my barricade with Eliz break. I then tie up my black hair in a ponytail and for the first time, I look better. Actually, I feel better.I stood there watching my reflection. It's like I'm looking at a new me. Eliz
