JADEI felt like I was in a rocket ship and I wasn’t wearing seatbelt. Or maybe a super fast car. I didn’t know how to explain it but my head felt light and like I was floating. I could hear voices around me but not what they were saying.And I’m lying on my back and the next, I feel like I’m falling from a skyscraper.I didn’t like any of this at all. Not to mention, the nausea. It was horrible. Probably the worst of everything else that was going on.I heard a thud that shook me. And my worried brain went to atlas. I didn’t know how many they were. Who even are they and what do they want? I just know I didn’t want him to get hurt.I needed to do something. I can’t stay here and let this weak feeling win. I’ve never even given up and I’m not about to start.Using every last bit of strength that I had, I tried to move my body. I needed to know if I had that ability or not. Thankfully, when I tried moving my leg, it moved. Not in the direction I wanted but it was a start.The next was
JADEI blinked and shook my head, trying to regain my vision. But the asshole kept shaking, which with my self diagnosed concussion was’t really a good idea. I felt like throwing up instantly.Generally, the idea of throwing up always gave me goosebumps, and in a bad way. But right now, I actually hoped I would do it on his body.I didn’t know how fat gone he was in his craziness but I bet the would release me the second it got nasty.“Jade, are you okay?” I could tell from the strain in his voce that Atlas was trying to sound casual, but he was pissed off.When I opened my mouth to speak, the attacker covered it with his filthy palm, I immediately smashed my lips closed. Contact with that disgusting thing will probably give me incurable diseases.“She is kind of busy right now. Why don’t you give us a minute and I’l get just what I want from her?” He was mocking Atlas. Another really stupid decision.Even on a good day, he did’t have much patience. And being an alpha, they snap faste
JADEI couldn’t explain what I felt when I came out of the shower and there was a shirt on the bed for me. Not just a shirt, but atlas’s shirt.I’d slipped it on and immediately got into bed.I was saying in my old room. It was exactly as I had left it the last time. Only with free linens and bedcovers. And Sarah had been the one to do that when we arrived. She gave me a knowing look. Almost like she knew I would be back.It left me wondering if I was the only one lying to myself. I couldn’t leave Atlas. Even if I run to the end of the world, I knew for sure if he wanted me back. He would find means bring me back. And here is nothing I could do about it.Right man had been like din the dungeon.“Good thinking.” Atlas had said when I told him the reason I left the man alive. He didn’t ask me about whatever they wanted form me.It was probably a dumb move but I couldn’t leave it in the house anymore so I brought the locket out of its hiding place and wore it around my neck.Atlas had st
JADEI stared at Atlas in disbelief. This hasty be some sort of joke but he looked serious as he said it.The woman, or Arya, as he had called her, looked like she wanted to be anywhere but here. I didn’t know if that was because of me or maybe that was how she felt generally.“And why would you think that?” I blurted the words out. “I was on my way out.”Atlas gives me a look. Daring me to defy him. I didn’t know what about it spurred my confidence. Or maybe it was just my inner recklessness that never got the chance to make itself known. That must be why pop my hip out, stare him down and then scoff.“While you sort whatever this is, I’ll get my things and leave.”He was speechless and I wanted give myself a pat on the back for that. I don’t think I have ever seen him look that lost before. And to think I put that look on his face.I really was healing.I turned around on my heel, refusing to acknowledge the woman watching me. Before I’d turned though. Her expression changed from… w
ATLASEither I’m the one losing my mind or it is the world that has finally lost it. But I felt at home in Jade’s arms.She didn’t have to do much for me to turn to putty at her feet. But my God, did she taste great and like everything I have ever dreamed of.She moaned, still pressing her body harder to mine. Call me. Greedy bastard but I still wanted more.I grabbed her ass and hoisted her up. Almost instinctively, she wrapped her legs around my waist. Her body going just low enough and gracing my arousal the right way. It had my knees buckling and for a second, I forgot why I was even carrying her in the first place.I walked us to the bed, our lips still locked tight. Teeth nibbling. Tongues intertwined in the most sinful dance that has stars dancing in my vision.She is a vision. The Vision. The only one.My mind was completely locked from any other thought when I lowered her on the bed. She looked up at me, her eyes completely trusting and it did something I couldn’t explain to
JADEMy fist clenched around the tray I was holding. The scalding mug of coffee staring back at me like a bad omen. Or maybe it was the effect of the bitterness churning in my chest. The sight before me made the acidic taste in my mouth more potent.Heat makes my skin prickle with goosebumps as I heard the giggles coming from Atlas's office. My husband and the alpha of Blackmoon pack.While he was there giggling and having the time of his life with her. I was out here, watching from a closed glass on our fourth anniversary. Alone as I have always been in this marriage. I hated the fact Annie had to come back into our lives. Today is the fourth year that we have been married, but he probably doesn't even remember.I thought things were getting better, but now it seemed like there was no hope for me anymore. At least he should show some respect for his Luna. If not for his wife.What would people say if they get to see the two of them together often? Neither of them cared apparently.‘D
JADE"Please, please." The choked whisper fell from my lips, seemingly falling on deaf ears as Atlas’s hands only tightened around my throat. Tears were beginning to sting my eyes and I was losing my breath. Seeing he had no intention of letting me go, I brought my trembling hands up and attempted to free myself. It was a futile attempt. He is an alpha and as good as I was in combat. I’m just an omega.“Atl—“ he let go of me abruptly and I broke out into a fit of coughs. My hands rubbed around my throat that felt like it was burning. My eyes burned with unshed tears. Pain blooming in my heart at being treated this way by the man that was supposed to love and protect me. "Anniversary?” Atlas’s voice was filled with rage. “Who told you I give a fuck? Haven't I made myself clear enough? You should stop trying so hard. Do you really have a problem comprehending things?" He kept on yelling. Breaking my heart some more with each word he utters. You’ll think I’ll be used to this by now.
JADE“Thank you. Thank you for coming.”I tried to feign a smile, to act like the deep hole in my heart wasn't eating at me. Not many people attended the funeral. Most of them were distant relatives I didn't even know existed. My feet hurt where I stood and I was very sure I have run out of tears. My stomach growled, as I watched the old men and women move around the house, stuffing their faces with food.If I didn't know any better, I would think that it was a black themed birthday party because of the lack of sadness in the air. It had been very hard to make the food they were munching away on.My grandmother was very traditional, even down to the things she ate. Since I had Irish ancestry, I had to find out how to make foods I didn't even know were edible. With little to no help from anyone, I had successfully managed to make it edible for these people to come and eat and catch up on old times.“Our deepest condolences. We're sorry for your loss.” A woman patted me on the should
