It was all good, the rain stopped, and Oliver came to meet Xavier. But the odd feeling of something bad would happen didn't go away. Sebastian and Mia went for a walk, I think that was good because they hadn't spent a nice time alone for long.
"What's with your face?" My mate asked because Gemma wasn't looking cheery as always.
"Too much work, you should come back fast man." He said and Xavier smiled at this showing his dimples.
Though the male was fine now, he still needed some rest so that his body could be as good as before, and that was why he wasn't allowed to do work. I have strictly ordered him to lay down.
I looked at Oliver whose eyes were misty, and he was watching at nothing, which meant he was mind link to someone. His face changed into a worried one.
"Are you alright?" I asked him.
"No, I have to get going." He stood up and walked outside.
"But-" Xavier was looking all anxious.
"Don't worry, I will go after him. You should rest." I smiled at him before ambling out of the room and running to catch up with Oliver.
"What the hell happened?" I asked him when I was finally walking beside him.
"The packhouse, it's engulfed by fire and many people are inside it." We ran out of the hospital and I could see from here just how big the fire was. It was growing more and more, swallowing the building.
"M-my parents," Gemma muttered. Well, I didn't know they were in the pack as I hadn't seen them but I remembered them. They were nice and kind to me. I listened to the loud cries of the children and other people inside.
"Oliver mind link others to come here," I told him.
Mia, I wanted her here right now. Shit, where was she?
"Ask anyone if they have seen Mia, we need her." The male nodded and mind link others.
Who could do this? This wasn't a without-any-evil-intention-accident, someone had done this. Why would anyone do this? What she or maybe he, would get from this? There were mostly women and children inside there. Godness, why did life has to be so hard?

"OMG!" I looked at Mia who was running toward me but out of nowhere Sebastian came with his vampire-fast-running speed and hugged me. This dude scared me.
"Are you alright?" They asked.
"I'm good, but we have to do something about this, the fire is just getting intense. The wolves had tried everything. Before the fire kills everyone, do something, Mia." I said.
*******
It was the third time my friend did a spell of stopping fire but if anything it was more aggressive and big. Before, it could burn the whole building we have to do something but what?
*******
Sebastian had already calmed Oliver who was asking many questions about how I could do magic when my friend told me to try. It was always amusing looking at vampires controlling someone just by staring in their eyes. But today I had a bigger problem to pay attention to.
"Only one thing is left, I think we should try that," I said to Mia.
"What?" She asked me.
"Do a protection spell on Sebastian and me. We won't be hurt by fire and with the help of his fast speed we will be able to save many people." I told her, but she looked at me like I was an idiot.
"You know after that spell will wear off you will be in pain, in intense pain for an hour or so." She said on which I nodded.
******
After telling both of them the hundredth time that I would be fine, but we have to rescue people, here I was. Standing in the building that would turn into ashes after some hours. The fire was licking every wall, but as odd as it was I didn't feel anything, no heat or the agony of the fire touching my skin. The fire did not harm me or Sebastian as we helped as many people as we could. I tried my best to get many of them out, the Gemma's parents were fine and out of the building too.
*****
We stood in front of the house looking as it crumbled down into nothing. The black magic and then a protection spell for making fire non-stoppable was way too powerful cause Mia had a hard time keeping us safe.
Most of the people were saved but every one of them was injured in some way or another. I looked at them and realized that they were looking at me with disgust. Why? That I didn't know. I noticed now that Xavier was present there too. He fastly came towards me.
"Why would you do that? It was so dangerous, Ella. Are you fine?" He inspected me.
"I'm good Xavier. No need to be worried about me." I smiled.
"She such a drama queen." Someone or should I say, Catherine said it loudly.
"Why would she do that."
"She is odd."
"That crazy girl." I could hear much worse and worst comments directed at me. But why? It was just like old times, I did good, I was right but still, I was wrong. They were the same, same people who did bad to me, and they were doing it again.
The Beta's and Alpha's parents were also present here now. When this pack's members needed Chloe she wasn't here but now she was here acting all mighty. I didn't know what to say to them. "Oh, my daughter, are you fine?" Penelope asked Catherine and as her daughter was a drama queen, she started crying even when she was fine. Everyone was saying so many terrible things to me and I felt like killing them with my bare hands. I wouldn't hesitate to do that as I have killed many people so it wasn't a big deal but I didn't want to kill them because of Xavier. I thought I could have them on my side in the war that was about to come but I think these coward idiots wouldn't do anything for me. "ENOUGH!" the male shouted, his Alpha voice could make anyone do anything. His voice was loud, deep, and firm. The whispers came to a halt at once as everyone looked down not daring to meet their Alpha's stare. "But she was the one who started this fire why won'
Stella Pov "No, Ella. I'm not eating this." Xavier said to me on which I glared at him. "And why not, dear Alpha?" I asked him with a raised brow. I was just giving him the broth I made for him with so much struggle, but he being stubborn wasn't listening to me. "Because you made it." He muttered. Truly, if I would be in his place I would have done the same because I knew I was not at all good at cooking, last time I tried to cook I messed up the whole kitchen, but he did eat it, then why say no now. I was sure it would not taste fabulous, but he could be a decent person and could say some good compliments about it. I didn't want him to lie about it, but still... "You said something?" Looking at him with narrowed eyes, I questioned. My white hair came on my face when I gazed down to see him holding my wast, smiling sweetly. Now, my hair wasn't white, it was just because of the flour that I have to use in something but ended up showering in tha
My back was sore as I sat up and found myself on the floor. Wait, didn't I sleep on the bed? Because Xavier forced me to stay with him, or he would sleep on the sofa with me. Neither did I want the poor thing to break down because of him nor I would like the male sleeping on me, so I slept on the bed but why was I waking up on the floor? The bed was empty which meant he was up. If he was awake he could have moved me to bed when he saw me down here. But wait....where was he? It was just 9:30 am. As I ambled downstairs, my mate was nowhere in the sight but the scent of food told me that he was in the kitchen. I walked inside the room to find the male making omelets, pancakes, and toast. 'Wow, nice breakfast. He is amazing.' I hummed while sitting on the chair. "Good morning." He grinned at me and yet again my heart started beating fast as I felt a weird feeling. "Why are you doing all this?" I asked him. "I won't get to spend muc
I sat on the couch talking with Fred as Oliver went upstairs to talk to his mate. I was sure he was gonna have fun annoying her up there. Her father had told me that she would be going with us today. It was odd but their pack has a rule and that was, as soon as you find your mate you have to go with him either to his house if he was in the same pack or to your mate's pack, a girl couldn't say no. And if she or he has to reject his mate then they have to do it right away with no time to think about it. "We will be going now. It's getting late." After saying our farewell and all three of us with the other wolves left for our pack. **** It was awkward. Truly awkward and bad. Why? I was forced to sit between Oliver and Sophia. Both of them didn't talk to each other. The air was full of tension that was as thick as butter. I was relieved when we reached the pack. Almost Sunning, I reached home and there I saw Ella, on the sofa, readin
"Please El," Eva said while looking at me cutely. 'Should I or should I not?' 'I think we should just listen to the cutie pie.' My wolf said and I hummed. It was not like Xavier would be back because I was sure he was too angry for some unknown reason. "Okay," I showed her my thump up while smiling. The kid had asked me if I could spend a night here with her and Elena scolded her for that, but she was stubborn and kept asking me. "Are you sure?" I nodded. I could sleep in the same clothes that I was wearing but the thing was, was there even enough place for me to spend the night here, Eva would be having a single bed, right? Wrong, Eva's room was exactly the opposite of what I thought. Her room's walls were of cream color, her furniture was of wood color and there was just a big teddy bear that would tell you that it was a room of a child. I did expect it to have pink girly walls at least but well I was wrong. "You sure t
"Don't you have work today?" Xavier who was sitting beside me, just looking at me and making me uncomfortable with his piercing gaze. "I will handle everything from home today." He replied, still looking at me. "Stella...." I turned my head to the right so I could face him. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be that angry...it's just....." He trailed off. Shocked because I have listened from many people that their Alpha was sweet and kind to them and for others he was scary but he has never said sorry to anyone, I said. "Huh? Uh...It's okay Xavier. People tend to become angry sometimes. I was just being nosy." I knew he was feeling bad because of what he did yesterday. "No, no I get it you were bored of living the whole day alone." Well, he was right, finally understood me. "Anyway, where is that pain in the ass gemma?" I asked him to which he laughed. "He got his feisty cat to take care of but why are you asking about him?" He
Another day, new drama, that was what I believed now. Still, I wished there would be one day when I could sit peacefully and let my mind roam around. I would smile and enjoy the day without having a feeling that it would just vanish or it was a dream. Love someone without fearing that I would lose them or hurt them. But that could only happen in my imagination because even my dreams weren't good ones. A sigh escaped my lips as I saw how people were acting around me. They were idiots, they didn't even know who was appearing like an angel but was no good than a devil. When I reached the room where my friends lived I thanked myself for controlling my anger and not attacking the damn people who were making me frustrated. "Hey, what are you doing here?" Mia asked me as I entered the room. It was big enough for two people. One double bed with a closet and a big bathroom. Simple but I liked it. "Can't I come here?" I looked at her on which sh
"What? Really?" Oliver asked me as I gave him a look that said do-I-look-like-I'm-kidding. "Well shit! how the wolves who are guarding the pack didn't see him?" He once again asked me. "Shouldn't I be the one who should ask this from you?" "Fine jeez, calm down. I will ask Alpha to tight the security." I nodded. We just talked over everything that happened like the red-eyed guy who was back to as good as before and Gemma was confused just like me. I have asked him to look into this matter on which he had agreed. I could say that Oliver knew everything that was happening with me after I told him 'I'm a hybrid'. He could come helpful when I needed help as he was Gemma and of course, every wolf here, in this pack would listen to him. "Ah, you said you will tell me about Elena, the one I showed you a picture of. So?" I looked at him. "Yeah well, she is a pack member." I gave him a look that shouted are-you-serious.
