Sharing Feelings
It had been four days since the strange ritual she had dragged Damien into. Neither had felt any difference and by the second day she felt embarrassed and was glad he didn’t visit her. Every evening a message came from him claiming to have something else holding him.
Ada sat in her outdated office among faded walls and felt annoyed. A powerful annoyance that she attributed to the failed mending of the bond, to the fact that she felt not ready for the Alpha challenge, to Arthur being more and more irritating, and everything else in the world. She had already glared at Emil who had tried to cheer her up half an hour ago.
That foul mood seemed a bit too intense for her current situation. Afterall nothing was new and the ritual failing wasn’t as much of a shock. Then a thought appeared. After some hesitation she picked up her phone and looked at it. They had always messaged before but hearing his voice would give her a better idea. She pressed on Damien’s name and waited

First was the sense of smell. She could smell the house with smells of her grandparents, remnants of her father’s cigarettes which never really left, her brother and his friend. The last two were normal and common smells for their house but they were too prominent now, those two boys had been in the house recently or were still there. Next, she could hear. No sounds came, nothing about family members moving around the house. Her body became aware of sitting on a chair with hands tied behind her. Wolfsbane was being filtered out of her bloodstream, she could already feel her organs working overtime to get the poison out. Her body was trained to do it. No shifting would be possible for some time though, and Damien wouldn’t have a connection to her either. Her head was hung low and she didn’t want to raise it and open her eyes. She already knew what she saw would break the last ties she had to this family. That last thought that kept her motivated and gave her a
Mates With Benefits A Lost Friend
Elders had made a permanent camp by Damien’s office. The conference room smelled of wolves and mixed aromas of a week of delivered lunches. They were getting on his nerves. As if files with pictures and background information on all those empty princesses wasn’t enough, over the last week some of them had been invited to tour the company, to interview for job or internship openings, have lunch with their family members who were among elders… Anything to get him see and communicate with them.He wasn’t sure if it was the mended bond with Ada to blame or the fact that he didn’t want to be forced into this marriage, but none of the women carried any attraction. He would act his part of being a host, carry a conversation and politely escort them out as soon as he could. Janet, the loyal secretary she was, had scheduled more than five meetings a day to give him the excuse of being preoccupied. Seeing the elders setting up residence in their building

Damien’s black wolf reached the top of the hill first. He could already see the crowd gathered in the square of this part of the city. It was ironic how the events turned out and the challenge was going to take place right on the border. The mending of the bond they did was practically useless now since he would see the outcome of the battle, even from such a distance he would be able to tell if one of them died. Now the mended bond would only mean pain, more pain for him. If she died, he would be torn apart. If she ran away, he would feel the lack of her, the yearning, and eventually the slow painful severing of the bond. How was he supposed to tie himself to another woman if both him and his wolf longed for her? And if she won and stayed? He was supposed to choose a Luna. He wouldn’t disrespect his future mate by sneaking around, being tangled with Ada in the sheets. She had made it clear she had no interest in being his Luna. And yet his wolf didn’t regret mending the bon

He attacked. She was the one blocking and stepping back now. He was cornering her. She had done this with Damien, she would go around or jump over him. She was quick and agile. Before she could, his hand was on her throat again. A hard slam to the ground came next. He lifted her and crashed the back of her head to the hard asphalt again and again and again. She bit her tongue. Black spots danced in front of her eyes.“Slow down time!” Arsen yelled at Flanna. Damien’s wolf was pacing ready to jump into their territory. If he did too soon and clan members noticed it could be twisted later as Ada recruiting aid, thus voiding the results of the challenge.“Not yet. She will need you soon,” Flanna told Damien calmly, eyes on the crowd not able to see much.Ada was able to knee her father and somehow escape that position. They went at each other ferociously. The crowd was frozen. Those were truly two Alpha’s at each other’s th

Uncle Aram growled at him. “Not now!”Ada realized that the warrior had been looking at her. Alpha… She was supposed to make decisions now. She had killed her father and now she should sentence that man to death. One more death. Her hands had become coated in blood in just one day. Blood of her own family, of a friend. She couldn’t. Blood of another man that she had known since she was a pup would be on her hands soon too.She felt her legs moving on their own. Before long she was away from the crowd. Running. She didn’t know where. Home! Her house. She had a suitcase packed just in case. Money and documents. She would be gone. An airplane. The next flight. Anywhere… She was running up the hill, when she heard a familiar voice. Ellen… She was up on the hill, right on the border.Something hit her side and next thing she knew she was on the ground on her side, Damien’s wolf towering over her. He immediately shift

1 Week Postmortem - HellfireSoft Persian rug under her cheek. That’s all Ada could focus on in that moment relishing the calm before hellfire consumed her from inside again. This was karma. This was the payment. Her hand was still on the couch she had fallen off. How many hours had it been? She lifted her head to look out of the small window. Sundown. Even the sky was painted in the colors of fire.She took a shaky breath feeling it ignite again. She squeezed her eyes shot tightly, gritted her teeth and screamed into the rug. Fire, so much fire licking at her insides. She was sure her womb was going to be roasted by the time it was done. If she couldn’t have children before this, her organs would definitely not nurture a life after this was over.The pain, the burn lessened. She was panting, gulping air now that she could. Her skin was damp, even the rug under her cheek felt damp. Cold sweat. Her eyes fluttered open with the last rays of the orange

There was too much teenagery excitement in it.Ellen switched back to showing her entire face to be met with Ada’s soft smile.“Is it as good as they say it is?” Ada asked a mischievous smile tugging at her lips.“Pfft, if you think you’ve had a good orgasm, you’ve had nothing!” Ellen laughed.It had become an unspoken rule to avoid Damien’s name, so she wasn’t going to make a joke about her nights with the young Alpha.Ada rolled her eyes at her young cousin. She used to babysit them, now she was a marked woman.“How is living with Arsen? Did that custom table arrive in one piece?” Ada asked.“It is beautiful. The artist is so talented!

3 months and 3 weeks postmortem – MonsterCool spray from the fountains was a delicious relief against the heat. It was almost nine in the evening the large fountain set in the center of the square would start the show any moment. Habanera from Carmen opera started playing raising goosebumps on her upper arms. Jets of the fountain swayed, exploded and changed color with the rise and fall of the music.Ada had come to Yerevan’s central square every evening in the last week since she had moved back to Armenia. Young mothers with strollers moved around, groups of teen males were being too loud, a lone girl sat on the beige stone steps with a notepad and a pencil in hand, lights of a nearby café buzzed with life…It felt peaceful and almost content. No matter how hard she tried to focus on her present, on the life around her, thoughts from Emil’s message the day before kept invading her mind.An entire clan wiped out… Th
