The following morning, I woke up to an empty bed. It was cool to the touch. Ashley had been gone for a while. I checked the bedside clock and noticed it was eleven o'clock in the morning. Still exhausted rolled back over and went back to sleep. Waking up again to knocking on the door, "Alpha, you need to eat something. Lunch is on the kitchen table. Beta Trevor, wants to remind you that the tournament starts in a few." the head omega uttered as I got out of bed realizing I had slept my whole day away. Ashley's pineapple scent lingering in the room brings me back to last night's memories. I made Ashley some lunch and dropped it off at the hospital. I placed the food on the nurse's station without saying a word, just winking at her as I left."Enjoy your meal, beautiful. I will pick you up later for dinner." I mind link her. "Yes Alpha, but I don't mind having you for dinner again." She taunted in this sedu
Today is my last day as Alpha of Black Moon. Ashley hasn't spoken to me since our dinner date. Tried mind-linking, but she kept on blocking me out or making up excuses that she was busy. It's going to be even harder to see her once I hand over the pack to the winner of tonight's tournament. "Go check on her. You never know what a person is going through. Depression affects people differently." Majestic warned, getting worried about her safety. Sitting outside of the hospital hoping to get to see her one last time. She had been avoiding me every time I went inside. It was pissing me off that her colleagues would lie for her."If any of you let her know I am in her office. You will have to face the consequences," using my Alpha aura on all the staff. Bowing their head in submission. I went into her office and waited. Growing tired of this cat-and-mouse game. Opening the door, in disbelief, she
In my room shaking this large-sized size box, listening closely to see if I can hear what is in it. I grabbed my nightshade blade off my hip and carefully cut the tape, pulling the flaps down to reveal multiple different size boxes all wrapped in blue paper. I opened each one to see it had my birthday outfit, complete with accessories. Libby had bought me a white dinner jacket trim in a gold floral print with pants to match, a black dress shirt, black and gold loafers, and gold cufflinks with my initials engraved in them. Even though I despise the color white, I could tell she put a lot of effort into finding my outfit. At the bottom of the package was a smaller box gift wrapped in birthday paper. Tearing the paper off in no time revealing two jewelry boxes. Inside was a Cuban Link chain and a gold diamond-encrusted watch to match. My mouth dropped open. I placed the watch on my wrist, and watched it bling in the sunlight, angling the chain the same way, you could see the diamond refl
Ashley had settled into her role as Luna. The pack members adored her. Even though she was Luna, she still went to work in the hospital. All the hard work she put into becoming a nurse I couldn't let it go to waste. "Sweetness, Libby wants you to join her and Alexis on a shopping spree?" I help her remove her scrubs, rubbing on her shoulders and massaging her neck. Enjoying the electrifying sensation our body makes when we touch. Lost in the moment, her words barely audible. "Sure baby, I'll go with them." Her sexy voice moans against my ear, she leans back on my chest, holding my arms on her breast and swaying side by side. Dancing to the rhythms of our heartbeats. We danced our way into the bathroom, where I had a candlelight bubble bath waiting for us. Assisting her in the tub and climbing in behind her. Holding her close, but her mind seems elsewhere. I could feel that she was nervous about something."
The smell of wolfsbane, burning flesh, and blood filled the air. My body was disorientated and still groggy from whatever my mother gave to us. My eyelids were heavy as I peeked around the room, adjusting to the lighting. We were some type of shipment container with one way in and out. Two guards stood at the end of the container setting up a variety of weapons. Libby is sitting adjacent to me; her hands are bound by metal cuffs and her feet are submerged in a bucket of wolfsbane. There is a gash on the side of her face and blood oozing out. "I know you are not asleep, trader." A burly guard struck me. I adjusted my body in the chair. My jaw began thumping from the force of his punch. The taste of metallic flooded my mouth; spitting blood on the ground. I jerked around in the chair trying to attack him causing the silver cuff to melt into my skin. He went aimlessly back to the counter and wrapped up chatting with the other guard."Libby, are you ok
Louis POV The fellas and I were playing a game of basketball when a crippling pain of a binding cord snapped. I fell to my knees, clutching my stomach, and sweat beads formed above my upper lip. Standing up, I noticed Trevor and Levi both hunched over. I sprinted to my gym bag and checked my phone. I saw countless missed calls and 911 texts from Libby and Ashley with their location. Moving like our ass was on fire. Jumping into the car, spraying dirt along the driveway as we head for the city. En route to the city, the highway was blocked off on both sides. Growing impatient. Banging on the dashboard and millions of thoughts going through my mind. Gripping the steering wheels, my knuckles turned white as tan fur sprouted along my arms."Let's just shift and run the rest of the way there," I yelled."There are too many people. We cannot risk being seen. It will alert the humans. They have enough to worry about as it is. How m
The room went silent. Trevor shaking hands, grabbed King by his collar and sat him upright. Slamming him back into the wall." This better not harm my mate or pup. Or else all deals will be null and void. The title you care so much about will be mine." Trevor slapped King in his face."Now that everything has come to terms. King, how do we get into New Moon?" Levi's eyes darken, nose fared, shoving the map in King's chest. *** Sending armored drones over the border. Shooting silver nitrate at the guards and killing them instantly. Cutting the fence with wire pliers, making the space big enough for all of us to squeeze through. Checking out our surroundings waiting for New Moon troops to rush the area, but to our surprise no one came. "Something wrong! My mom should've felt their binding cord snap. They should be charging at us." King's eyes glazed over. "My mom is in the hospital, on the other side of the territory. Hea
Soft sunlight filters through the curtains, casting a warm glow across the hospital room. The sound of beeping machines fills the air. Ashley squinted her eyes, her gaze was unfocused at first. She cries out in pain as her body is covered in bruises, and her face is marked with signs of torture. Sitting in a chair beside the hospital bed, my face traced with fear and remorse. I watch as Ashley stirs and finally wakes up. Leaning forward, I placed my forehead on hers, enjoying the electric sensations I had missed these past few days. Sharing an intimate moment of silent strength, and determination to face the challenges ahead together."Ashley? Can you hear me?" Her eyes focused on me, and a quick smile sat on her face as she managed to nod. Her voice is barely a whisper. Her gaze shifted to the window, and the smile on her face disappeared. Her thoughts drift to the suffering she's endured. "I didn't think I'
