Ethan is already waiting for us in his car when Martha and I come out of her house arm in arm. We arrive at where he's parked and Martha opens the back door while I sit beside Ethan in the front seat."Hi..." She simply says to Ethan with a smile before she comfortably rests her back, exhales, and closes her eyes. We'd been working all day and I know she's tired. I feel guilty for keeping her out of her bed. I can't wait for me to turn eighteen so she can finally retire."Hi. Thank you for doing this" I say to Ethan with a smile and he also smiles, nodding back in return.The drive to the station is a short one, about ten minutes, and done in silence since we don't want to wake Martha who appears to have drifted into dreamland alreadyAs soon as we alight from the car, Martha excuses herself and goes straight to get our tickets which Ethan insisted on paying for. He also gets some stuff that he says we might need for the road. The ticket Martha got is for a suite cabin that contains
Thor's POVFor the first time in fifteen years, I don't have a nightmare. Instead, I had a beautiful dream. Well, the dream wasn't entirely beautiful since it ended badly, but it was from the beginning. I dreamt about the sun, setting on a golden wheat field that swayed gently in the calm evening wind. Right at the center of the field stood a goddess. The loveliest of all women with golden tresses that cascaded down her back and over her shoulders, and beautifully tanned skin that glowed as the evening sunlight shone and cast its shadow on her.Even though I hate the fact that she was scantily clad in a long, golden chiffon dress that leaves little to the imagination. I love the perfect curvy body that I could see through her thin, threadbare dress. I'm especially attracted to her round and high breasts with dark prominent nipples and darker areola At the mere sight of her, my wolf was already jumping crazily within me, clawing to rise to the surface and meet with his mate."Mate!"
Flame's POVMy whole body stiffens as explosive wolves' voices begin to howl inside my head and all around me. I forcefully push myself away from Ethan with my eyes tightly shut and my hands over my ears in a bid to block out some of the noise but it is useless.It feels like a parade is going on inside my head. Throngs of angry wolves running and howling in unison. Threatening to render me insane. I manage to open my eyes when I feel Ethan's firm hands shaking my shoulders...His lips are moving but I can't hear what he's saying over all the howlings and the paws beating hard on the wall of my skull."Make it stop! Please make it stop! It's driving me crazy! I'm about to go insane! It is painful. Feels as if my head is about to explode" I cry out to him in desperation. He looks frantic with worry for me. His lips are still moving, uttering words he had no idea I can't hear. That is it. He's not doing anything to stop the voice. Can he even hear me?"Make it stop!" I shout through t
"You're not a sorcerer?" I ask with surprise "But Martha said you are, and she would never lie to me!" "Yes, but my young cousin is always getting things mixed up. I'm a witch, not a sorcerer. There's a difference between the two"Oh, you're a witch!? - Wait, did you just say your young cousin? That must be a slip of tongue, you meant to say older cousin, didn't you?" She chuckles "What do you think? Am I the older or younger cousin?""Isn't that obvious enough?""Yes, it is. It must have been a slip of tongue then" It must have been a slip of tongue or it is a slip of tongue? I wonder. She certainly sounds like she's teasing me which is surprising since I've never heard anyone say good things about witches. I heard they make use of magic or supernatural powers to harm or manipulate others into doing their will. "I'm sorry but aren't witches supposed to be... You know... I thought witches are evil! I heard they sacrifice innocent people especially kids for their own wicked deeds
No matter what I say to Lilly, she continues with what she's saying as if she can't hear me talk. Like I'm not even there in the room with her. 'Help me or leave me the fuck alone! How difficult is that!?' I wonder to myself in annoyance. Even though she's starting to piss me off, I manage to keep my temper in check, watching as she drone on and on to the invincible goddess she's speaking to."I can only help prepare her body for you goddess..." she finished saying while looking straight into my eyes."You're crazy!" I shout and wrench my hands away from hers. "You're an obvious candidate for the loony bin and should be urgently admitted to one! I'm leaving right now!" I say and immediately turn to leave. She has successfully driven me to the point of frustration, I just hope my leaving won't upset Martha."Wait!... Please!" She stops me again with her hand holding firmly to my arm. I try to wrench my arm away from her but her grip is too strong. She's certainly stronger than the fra
"What did he want her for?" Ethan firmly demands from the bastard that came to deliver the Beta's message, his voice, hard and threatening. But instead of him answering, he raises an eyebrow and laughs."You've also gotten bitten by the Omega's poisonous bug, eh? If you want to know what he wants her for then I'll suggest you don't ask me, go to him. He's your father after all..." He wink at me when he finish talking "I'll see you around Omega!" He says before he leavesI am angry and barely holding on to my wolf. I can literally feel her clawing at the door of my mind, begging to be let out and guts my abuser. Even though I want to give in to my wolf since I hate breathing the same air as this son of a bitch, I still hold on tightly so I don't lose control of her. At least not at the moment when I don't know if I'm in trouble or not.I didn't realize I was just staring into space until Ethan's voice brought me back…"C'mon let's go! I'll go with you." "Who is that guy? For how l
An awkward silence followed my words probably because they know I'm right. Who would believe me if I had reported the Gamma chief? Who among them would listen to me? Will I even have the guts to stand before any of them and report a whole council member?"How would you know if anyone would believe you when you never even attempt to report your situation? Or are you deliberately trying to make me look bad right in front of the Alpha?" The Beta ask'Oh, fucking hell!' I swear softly to myself. I already know I'm in trouble the moment I open my mouth to say nobody would believe me. Now he's going to put all the blame on me while guilt-tripping me in the process."You may leave" I hear the Alpha say and I nearly jump up with joy. I immediately turn to leave but the Beta's voice stops me dead in my tracks"But I'm not done with her..." "We're done with her for now, Hank. We'll call her back for further questioning if ever we have any!" The Alpha replies firmly and I hurriedly walk to the
Thor's POV"General, your father is here to see you." Henrik, my most trusted Captain back in Denmark, entered my office to say.I look up from the file I'm working on toward the clock hanging on the wall opposite my desk and see it's exactly ten hours after we arrived back in Los Angeles. I know the old wolf would investigate where I'm staying and come find me since I refused to go with the person he sent to pick me up at the airportWhy would I stay at the house my father prepared for me when I already bought my own mansion and made sure it was made ready for us before we arrive. I also brought along with me my staff since I don't intend to trust anybody that comes from my father's pack"I kinda knew he would come but I never knew it would be this early," I say to Henrik, returning my attention to the file I was working on. "You can tell him I won't be able to see him right now because I'm still jet-lagged and having difficulty adjusting to the new time zone." "He already said h
