April's povThe next morning I woke up early. After having a quick shower I changed into a new set of clothes and made my way into the kitchen.I searched for the ingredients and started making breakfast for myself and Jason. The kitchen is always fully stocked. Every day he would ask me if I needed anything and I'll thank him, saying there was nothing I needed because he has already provided me with everything.I set the table when he descended down the stairs wearing his casual clothing. He was wearing a loose shirt with sweats. His hair was ruffled and wet. 'He looked kinda cute,' Frea mused in my head and I scolded her in my head."Breakfast is ready," I passed him a smile as he took a seat opposite mine and served himself. We started eating our breakfast as I pondered my thoughts. I've been thinking about it lately but I haven't voiced it out yet."Jason," I called him, garnering his attention."I thought I would live here only for a few days, but now it seems it will be long,"
I got ready. I wore a beautiful peach dress. It reached above my knees and was flowy, shoulderless. Lily gifted this to me a year back and it's beautiful. I did light makeup, some mascara, and gloss. I let my hair loose as it cascaded down my back in waves.I stepped out of the room and found Jason in the lounge. He was wearing a crisp white button-down shirt with black slacks. His hair was gelled back and he looked nice.'Handsome Hunk,' Frea hooted in my head and my eyes widened in embarrassment. Thank God wolves couldn't talk out loud cause Frea would've surely embarrassed me in a lot of places."You look beautiful," He complimented as his eyes sneaked a glance at me from head to toe."Thank you," I whispered with my heart beating faster.He escorted me out of the house and helped me into his car. Taking the driver seat he put the car to drive.Within a few minutes, we reached the restaurant as it was close by. Jason passed the keys to the valet and opened the door for me. The ma
My eyes shot open wide as I abruptly sat up on the bed and gasped. Sweat trickled down my temple as I checked my arms and looked at them wide eyes to find any blood all over but there was nothing. My chest was heaving up and down with fast breaths as my eyes scanned my room.I couldn't tell if it was reality or a nightmare. I squinted my eyes to find the lurking shadows in the darkness of my room. I was afraid that at any moment Liam would come out of the shadows and hurt me.A shrill scream escaped my lips as my heart came to my mouth when my door was knocked. "April?" I heard the deep panicked stricken voice of Jason as I cupped my mouth shut trying to breathe."It's okay, April. You're safe. I'm here for you," His voice was gentle but held worry for me."It was just a nightmare. I heard your muffled cries. You're safe, April." He said as I touched my cheeks to find them wet. I was crying.His words were comforting. "Can I come in?" He asked as I immediately wiped my tears."Y..yes
Jason parked the car as we got out and headed into my high school. We went straight into the administration department where I submitted my old high school card and requested them for my transcript.They asked us to wait for a while, we waited for approx ten minutes in the waiting area before I was called and they handed me a file to which my transcripts were attached.I thanked them as we headed out of the administration department."Jason? Do you have some time? I'd like to show you something," I said."Yes, I'm free for today. And we still have two hours as per your study planner," He said looking at me."Then follow me," I mused and he smiled cluelessly. "Where?" He asked, slipping his hands into his jeans pockets."It's a surprise," I turned around to walk as he followed right behind me.As I passed through the corridors, I couldn't help myself as the bitter old memories flashed in front of my eyes. There wasn't a place where Stella didn't bully or humiliate me. Though she was y
He noticed me looking at him."Everything okay?" I asked, seeing the serious expression on his face."It's Ethan, he got injured." He said and my brows furrowed."Is he okay?" I asked."I will go to him after dropping you," He said."I will go too," I said as he shook his head."I'll take you to him later," He said as he came to my side and opened the door for me as I got into the car.He took the driver's seat and roared the engine to life. Reversing out of the parking lot he put the car into drive.I wanted to go with him and visit Ethan, but if he says he would take me later then it's fine. I hope Ethan is fine."Jason, you could drop me near the bus stop. I'll take the bus, you should go to Ethan." "No, first I'll drop you home safely." He said. I noticed as he gripped the steering wheel with such force that his knuckles turned white.I realized that there was something he was hiding from me.All of sudden it occurred to me that when Jason came to Liam's pack for the first time,
Jason’s pov Ethan mind-linked me, he told me that he was asked to participate in an attack on a pack and he got injured, he needed my help. I was muddled. He didn't sound too bad, so I decided to drive April home first, I didn't want to see another Alpha Leon driving my mate home. That time it was frustrating enough. Once I made sure that April locked the door and was safely home. I put the car into drive. On the way I was thinking, why did it happen? The Blue Moon pack hasn't launched an attack in years. Alpha Logan was trying to build a good image to help him run for Alpha King's title. And why was Ethan asked to participate in it? Although he’s a warrior, he didn’t like killing, so he paid an annual fee for the pack to avoid pack work, that’s why he ran his own business of a restaurant, and Alpha Logan agreed to it. It didn't make sense. There was something fishy and if my father was behind all this then definitely something isn't right. When I got to Ethan’s place, he was slig
April's pov I felt a warm touch on my lips which stirred me out of my sleep. When I opened my eyes, I saw Jason crouching on the floor very close to my face. With one arm propped up on the back of the couch and the other next to me, I was enveloped in his shadow as he looked down on me from above. He was hovering over me. His bluish hues peered down at me as we looked at each other and the time seemed to stand still. His hair was down covering his forehead. His thick brows were together as if he was restraining himself from something. My eyes glided to his pink full lips, his light stubble gave him a rugged look and his eyes. Those ocean pools looked at me as if he could see right through my soul into the deepest darkest parts of my soul. There was this immense pull that I couldn't describe. My body yearned to disappear in his warmth and drown in his soul. I just wanted to pull him closer. To feel the warmth of his skin. My thoughts rattled my heart making no inhale sharply which w
Time flies and the test is due tomorrow. Jason and I were sitting in the lounge with books and notes sprawled all over the table."You'll do good, stop worrying." He said but I shook my head."Ask me a few questions," I insisted and he asked me a few conceptual questions. I was able to answer them all but my nervousness won't fade away.While sitting I was slightly moving back and forth, my lips moving as I continued to recall a few topics, especially the ones I think I'd forgotten. But when I recall them I still remember them but I do feel like I've forgotten everything I've memorized."April," I was so drowned in myself that I didn't hear him."April!" "Huh!" I looked at him with wide eyes."Yes?" I asked."Calm down," He said and I bobbed my head."I'm fine," I blurted out and he sighed.I stiffened when he grabbed my small hand in his large one and gazed into my eyes. "Stop worrying, April. You will do amazing tomorrow," He said, squeezing my hand and I breathed in deeply looking
