53. The watcher
She steps out into the clearing and faces me, her hair flowing down her body, a long purple dress hugging her figure, her eyes a dazzling shade of purple, she was in her element, this is something she had been planning for some time.
“Oh Ashley, poor little Ashley” I stand there alone, facing the very bitch that had tried to kill me
I say nothing as I try to focus on Reaper, the electric running through us was painful but I couldn’t lose her, I had only just found my other half, I had only just figured out who I was.
“Where is Christian?”
“Occupied” she doesn’t expand any further but I wanted to know what she had done to him
“Where is he?” I snarl at her and she just laughs. If I ever get out of here, she will pay for what she has done
I fight against the electrical current, telling Reaper now was the time to come out but she was silent and unresponsive
“How are you doi

How was it even possible, I wasn’t mated to him, I knew I liked him but surely that wasn’t enough to create sparks between us. As I raise my eyes to his, he doesn’t say anything about the sparks“She's dead?”It wasn’t so much Christians reaction I was waiting for but Daryl’s. I wanted to know if he loved her too like she had loved him.I nod my head, "But what happened to you?, you were right behind me""I got attacked by a rogue, don't worry, they didn't last long", he said no more but it made sense as to why he was in different clothes and why there was dirt smudged across his face.“I don’t believe you Ash”“Why would you Daryl, because you never believe anything I say”“It’s seems pretty unlikely”Christian snorts, something I was getting use to when he knew I was going to make a sarcastic comment“Fine don’t believ
Alpha Daryl 55. Rejection
As we crash to the floor, my head smashes against the edge of the fridge with a loud thud, what did Christian say? He said something about Daryl not being my mate.Whilst my body is sprawled out on the floor, making sense of what Daryl just said, the men are fighting and throwing each other across the room.Rubbing my head, I get on my feet “What did you say about Daryl?” but they don’t hear me as Christian launches Daryl into the cupboards, the clattering of saucepans ringing out as they clatter to the floor.“STOP!!”Both men stop what they are doing and look at me “Tell her” Christian speaks through clenched teeth“There is nothing to say” he brushes down his tshirt as he stands“Daryl, tell her”“Tell me what”“He is lying to you Ash, about your mate bond, you are not mated”“No. No, that cannot be true, I feel it, Reaper
Alpha Daryl 56. The truth will always come out
I don’t see Daryl for the rest of the day and I was grateful, instead I was spending the afternoon mulling over Christians words and wondering if he had felt the sparks between us like I had. Before leaving Christian had warned me that I might feel pain from rejecting Daryl but as time passed I felt nothing, literally nothing and it made me realise how little i actually know.Christian stuck to his word and slept on the white leather sofa in the room, he waited patiently outside whilst I sorted myself out and climbed into the large bed, it really was massive and I seemed oddly small in comparison but I knew I was safe with Christian not far away.At some point in the night I woke, tossing and turning, an unnerving gut feeling and sitting up I see Christian fast asleep and I push the odd sensation away from my mind and try to settle back down but I knew something wasn’t right.Sitting up, I whisper Christians name but he doesn’t stir. Tiptoeing
Alpha Daryl 57. An unplanned surprise
Christian orders everyone to leave the three of us, he looks at Daryl “You’re not dying?”They had been friends for years, long before I came on to the scene and he hadn’t just lied to me but to his good friend. Everything that came out of his mouth was complete bullshit.Daryl flashes his eyes between us, we were both waiting for answers from the man who had lied to us“Fine, no I am not”“Why did you lie to me, to your mate, you and that stupid witch made out that you had less than a year to live. We grew up together, don’t you think I at least deserved the truth”“But you have been lying to me to Christian, I know exactly who you are or rather what you are, I know the both of you went off in search of blood”“It was never my plan to keep it away from you Daryl and then Ash came into your life, it just made it..... harder”“A friendship built on lies
Alpha Daryl 58. Sour blood
Searching the house and the grounds, he is nowhere to be found, Daryl is sparring with one of the men from Christians pack and watches me hastily march across the grounds. He doesn’t stop, nor does he call out to me and it finally felt like he was giving me a break. When I give up looking, Calli finds me and offers me another chance to train with her but it was getting close to the time that I needed to meet Tasha and I make my excuses.Checking around me as I near the forest, I slip in unseen and make my way back to the clearing where I had met the human. It didn’t take me long to find the place, Paige’s body was no longer on the ground and I wondered if the vampires had found her and removed her.I should have been more cautious about the vampires but I didn’t care, if needed to I would let Reaper deal with them. Checking the watch Daryl had given me, I was a few minutes early and bang on 2pm I see her auburn hair appear between the trees, thi
Alpha Daryl 59. The clever human
“Why did you run?” he grunts at me“I didn’t” he makes a move to come through the door but I block him“You can’t come in, I don’t want you here” I did not want him to find out about Tasha“Let me in, I can smell the blood”“No!” Reaper growls through me, she no longer believed in the mate bond and now after Christians kiss she felt the same as me, Daryl had violated us.“You cannot keep me away forever Ash, I am your mate”“No you are not, I rejected you, whether you accept it or not, we are not mates”He snarls again but turns on his heel and I stand there, making sure that he leaves as he climbs onto his motorbike and speeds away. When I finally shut the door, Tasha appears “You have a mate, does that mean boyfriend?”How was I going to explain this, it was hard enough for me to understand let alone telling someo
Alpha Daryl 60. A deal with the devil
He had finally snapped, I don’t know why I didn’t think he would attack but he has. After a few minutes Calli sits up, her stomach wound almost fully knitted back together leaving a deep red mark but the same could not be said about the others, who continued to lie still.“You brought him here” she snaps at me“I didn’t, he isn’t who I thought he was”“What do you mean?”I give her the quick run down and tell her that its actually Christian who I am mated too. A smile appears on her face “I knew he was into you”I nod “But where has Daryl taken him”“Daryl and Amber have him in the prison”He had let Amber out, I don’t know how because Christian and his Beta were the only ones who knew how.“Amber did this?” I gesture at all the dead bodies and Calli sighs“Took us all by surprise. Why is he doing it As
Alpha Daryl 61. My home
What choice did I have but to agree although I was not sure what my end of the deal would mean. The vampire agreed to meet me in one hour with other vampires. I would be well and truly outnumbered because I had no one but myself. It doesn’t matter, they become paralysed with fear when they see your true self ‘What do you mean?’ It’s why no one fights back, seeing us leaves them powerless and that is why it is rare anyone lives to tell the tale, but now you have made friends with a human that we hope will keep our secret ‘That’s what you are worried about, Not the deal we just made’ I feel her laugh which makes me think that I am missing something. Sitting down on the hard ground, I wait. I could move but there was no point me leaving and then coming back. I knew they were watching me long before they stepped into view, not only could I smell them but my level of hearing was beyond that of a normal wolf. Exactly one ho
