I almost jumped out of my skin when I felt arms around me. My eyes searched my surroundings in the dark. I wasn't a wolf. I needed light. I pushed on his hard chest to get myself free from his stronghold. His arms kept me close to his warm and strong chest. I couldn't break the hold. I prolong my hand toward the switch. I kept my arm stretched out until I felt it and turned them on. My chin rose and my gaze locked with his amber gaze. He was looking at me with an expression on his face. "How dare you to be in my room. How dare you touch me!" I shouted in anger, tears pooled my eyes. The sight of him brought the pain back. His hold on me was firm. His scent worked on me. The pain, hurt vanished. The tears dried from my eyes. He withdrew his hand. "It's still night. Go to sleep." He ordered. It angered me more. "Get out of my room." "Not happening, mate. He looked out of the window and there was no light in the night. " Don't
As he said, he was leaning against the wall with his alpha friends. He pushed himself ahead, straightening his back as I paced toward the classroom. Aidan was a few steps ahead of me. "Ember, Have you solved this?" He pointed at the last sum in his book. "Um, yes." I pulled my backpack forward to unzip it. My eyes averted away from him as I unfurled it and took out my notebook. "Thanks," He grabbed it and rushed ahead, striding into the class. Darkice didn't try to hit him. It was a relief. "Hey," He said, running his hand through his silky long hair. "Hi," I started to get nervous, biting my bottom lip with my head held down. I don't know what to say or do. "You'll sit with me." His arm came around me. "I don't think it's a good idea. I'm sitting with Aidan." I muttered. A soft growl left his body. Halting, I glanced at him. I didn't want others to hear us. Whatever happened last night was between us. If he wa
I waddled over to the closet. There was no need to shower again but I wanted to. I wanted to smell good around him. I grabbed a full sleeve blue top with a round neckline and denim jeans. The practice would last longer. It could get dark too. I didn't want to catch a cold. I was still stuck in the moment when I heard that strange, loud buzz in my ears. It felt as if someone was around me creating it. I was not certain. What's happening to me? Is it related to the dead Emma? I mean I look like her. After dressing up, I climbed down the stairs. He was already waiting for me in the hall. "You don't need to do this. I got it yesterday that you don't want me." I stopped on the last step. "If you're doing this because your mother wants, please don't do this against your will." I cast my head down. Tears gathered in my eyes. It was hurting so much. My words could send him away, forever. Would I die without him? Or wandered around like a rogue? I don't know but
After finishing my breakfast, I hurried up the stairs. I went for the closet. I frowned, finding no suit in there. How could they make such a mistake? I'll deal with it later. I picked a creamy skirt and a pink blouse and a matching coat with my skirt. I walked over to the bathroom door. After dolling up, I checked my reflection in the mirror. The outfit was perfect. I put my hair down and gave waves to the end of them. And a little make won't harm my skin. "Ember," I heard my brother. I grabbed my white purse and headed out of the room. I climbed down the stairs slowly, watching my steps in my high heels. "I'm ready." Drake was wearing a brown suit, looking handsome like model-businessman, his rare eyes were highlighted. Anyone from first glance recognized us as brother and sister. He grabbed his laptop bag and some files. He smiled at me while motioning at the door. "Can I hold them?" I already extended my hand to take them from his hands.
Fear crept into my bones. My eyes darted around but I wasn't particularly seeing things around me. I was stuck in the horrible image of my head. "Relax, relax. There's nothing." His strong arms were curled around me, my cheek was pressed tight to his chest. I inhaled his earthy scent. "Thank you for saving me. I thought you wouldn't look at me in the meeting hall. I was going to die there. I wasn't sleeping. I don't know how it happened." I sobbed against his chest. Horror was making my hands tremble. Worry entered his golden eyes. "You don't need to thank me. Now..." He drew his face close, his nose touched the tip of my nose. "Your fear is giving them strength. Are you getting me, Vida? " He asked. I nodded my head. It took me several minutes to push the fear away. But deep down I was frightened I would be trapped there again. "What's happening to me? I'm seeing things a human would never imagine. Is something wrong in my head?" I a
We watched the movie with amusement in our eyes. I went to bed after watching the full movie. It didn't take me long to fall asleep. I heard many voices in the kitchen. A smile crawled on my face and I rushed the rest of the way into the kitchen, yelling happily. "I missed you so much." "My sister!" She opened her arms and took me in a tight hug. "I missed you like hell. Luke told me about your half-Ceremony. Show me." She pulled herself back, placing her both hands on my shoulders. Excitement played in her eyes. Gleefully, I opened my palm. I was a little nervous too, but not from her reaction. "Wao!" She swiped her thumb near it. "Does it hurt?" She asked, worriedly. "No," I shook my head. "I'm so happy for you. Congratulations, Em." "Thanks, Ev. You're staying, right?" I asked. Her face fell and she shook her head. "I came with Luke." I looked around for him. "Where's he?" I asked, confusingly
A hand touched my arm and I flinched away from him in shock and fear. My eyes met his fire-flashing eyes. His hand wrapped around my upper arm. He pulled me behind him. His arm was curling around me securely. "What are they?" The hair along the back of my neck stood to attention in the warning. "Fucking piece of shits don't die." I heard someone shouting in exasperation. "They taste like venom." Another shout filled the tense air. I heard loud shouts of fear, many comments over these things, and complaints that they weren't dying. I couldn't peel my eyes away from the black hole. Fear gripped my bones when I saw a shadow coming out of it. It terrified me more when my eyes lifted up at the sky. The sun was covered with the darkest clouds. Am I in my nightmare? After staring at it I realized they were shadows covering the whole sky. Fear raced through me. "Darkice, they're not clouds." I pointed my finger at the sky.
I stood up out of shock. I darted my eyes around and there was no one in the room. It was only me. How could he suggest it to me when he wasn't around me or in my room? "How did you do that?" I asked him, still running my eyes around. 'Your eyes.' "Explain, please? How are my eyes helping you?" 'I can see what you're seeing." I heard him. My eyes widened like saucers. "And what else have you seen? " I was in the shower and right now wrapped in a towel. My cheeks heated. 'I won't until you turn eighteen.' "I didn't mean that. I..." I squeezed my eyes. I wouldn't mind if he would see me. 'You don't wanna get late.' He reminded me. "Yes," I plucked the black dress and rushed to the bathroom again. I paced out of the room with a smile. It's a beautiful black midi dress, my hair is down, a little makeup like usual, natural pink lips. I didn't hear him after that in my head. I took the stairs. "Good morn
