Andrea’s POVI don’t know why now, but I just got a strong feeling from the bond telling me he was so angry. I didn’t know why I couldn’t get a glimpse of his feelings before when I was wondering where he disappeared into. It was almost like he didn’t just shut off his mind link, but he also shut off the bond between us if that was even possible. Even though this was supposed to be a magic free zone for me and him because of the magic spell surrounding this territory, I could still feel his immense anger telling me he was feeling a lot of it if it could reach me despite the magic.The moment he appeared through the dim corridor, a flood of relief ran through me. Just the mere sight of him made me feel instantly safe. But still, there was a small part that wasn’t entirely relieved because it didn’t know why he left me alone and disappeared without telling anyone anything. A small part was still afraid that he will break his promises to me for some reason.“Where were you? And why weren
Andrea’s POVI stared at him in stunned silence, a million questions going through my head all at once. He remembers me? How much does he remember exactly? And when did that happen? Was that the reason he left me alone and disappeared? What is going on through his head?And then I remembered what he said to Adrian back at the cell.‘I know exactly who she is’He watched me process this without saying anything. He was just staring at me sadly. Was he sad for me or for himself because he thinks the past is too heavy to accept?I finally gained enough courage to ask in a thick voice “What do you remember? And when did that happen?”His hand moved to my hair, brushing it and playing with it as he spoke gently “It was after we slept last night. I had a dream, more like a memory I think your name triggered it and as soon as I woke up, I remembered everything else”“What memory was that?” I asked carefully, wanting and not wanting to know, the pain of my past memories was not something I go
Alec’s POV“We need to talk Alec! I’m not waiting any longer”I woke up to my brother’s angry voice in my head.I resisted the urge to curse at him for being such an overprotective asshole and acting so cruelly towards my mate.I still haven’t forgiven him for taking her away from me without giving a damn about me and causing her so much fear. She didn’t tell me everything that happened with him, but the second I was informed about what my idiot of a brother has done, the amount of fear that traveled through me from the bond almost brought me down to my knees. He scared the living hell out of her and I wasn’t going to let that one go if it wasn’t for Andy begging me not to fight with him over her.After I revealed to her that I know who she is, we talked for a while. I asked her to tell me what happened after they left the pack and when she told me, it broke my heart all over again.Her mother wanted revenge for her father and left Andy at the human social services to join the rogues
Alec’s POVShe heard everything…. Dammit!I should have risked leaving her alone or at least I could have left Mila with her and did this in my office so I don’t get put in this situation.Maddox disagreed with me “Nah, your stubborn brother would have never left that alone. She’s going to find out sooner or later. Better do it now and try as much as you can to be there for her because his will hurt more than anything else”I approached her until I stood facing her and said tenderly, trying to stop her from seeking the truth one last time “Andy…we agreed to leave the past behind, didn’t we? Nothing will change I already promised you that. Let’s just forget about everything else and live for now, for tomorrow…. Please, for me”“He said….. He said traitor. I heard him…..so was he? He really did…. Betray the pack?” she asked in anguish as her tears fell down thickly. Each teardrop was a size larger than the one before it. Each teardrop stabbing at my heart and punching tiny holes in it.
Alec’s POV“Wait, hang on! The same alpha King you saved her from?” Adrian asked in astonishment.“Yes” I said curtly, walking hurriedly back to my pack house while mind linking Andy’s doctor to come to my quarters and bring everything she needs with her.“Shit!” Adrian cursed tightly.I tightened my hold on her automatically, thinking back to the moment I found her at that pack, abused, naked, broken, and scared. Only one night at that place ruined her completely and I would have been willing to do whatever it takes, go through every hell there is, to go back in time and stop that animal from seeing her in the first place.But that was not within my power to do. And all I was left with was to try like hell to help her get past everything, especially that monster. I have that fear that I will not be enough to make her forget all that pain and terror she lived through. That she will always be affected by that wretched night and keep suffering because of it. The thought of losing her is
Andrea’s POVMy very first kisses and I thank the goddess with my whole heart that it was with Alec.I can never imagine feeling as pleasured as I did right now if I kissed anyone else.It was him.It was always meant to be him.My lips were meant to be captured by his only. My body responded to his touches, melted against him, and begged me to touch him back.But I didn’t.Despite how much he ignited a lot of desire inside me with those kisses we just shared, I couldn’t bring myself to go further than that.I never imagined today would be the day we kiss because of everything that happened since this morning.Because of the ultimate betrayal I discovered just a few hours ago that made me lose myself and almost killed me from the inside.But he chose the perfect moment to kiss me because those kisses were able to restore my soul and light it up like a fourth of July firework.If I had doubts about me and Alec accepting each other after everything that happened, those doubts were total
Andrea’s POVI woke up feeling lighter than air for the first time in forever.I woke up in the best place in this whole world, in Alec’s arms, my mate’s.He was still lightly snoring and I took that opportunity to study him closely. He was a great catch both in personality and in looks.I loved his slightly wavy hair, his perfect straight nose, how alluring and manly his stubble beard makes him look supported with that to kill for muscled body. And let’s not forget the charming light blue eyes that pull you to swim inside them forever, and that sweet, tasty mouth of his was the cherry on top.He is perfect to say the least. No flaw can be seen on him.Last night, after the submission, he used his alpha command to overrule the monster’s control over my wolf and my shifting. He released me of them and Clara felt free instantly. She wanted to shift right there but I barely talked her out of it.It's been a week since we shifted last, and without my proper nutrition and strength back, I
Mila’s POV“How was your day? You look really happy” Ryan said observingly.We were having dinner at our own place and since Ryan eats faster than me, he finished his plate and started watching me with fascination, which made me both giddy and nervous at the same time.It was like after we marked each other, every emotion we felt got heightened. Our likeness for each other started to turn into love, our attraction to each other changed into lust and desire. It was hard to keep our hands off each other but I was always the one to back off first because I was still afraid I might get triggered if we had sex.“I hung out with Andy, I took her on a tour around the pack and we spent the day together talking and having fun. It was a great day” I said with a soft smile on my face.“I’m finally glad she managed to work things out with Alec. He was really a mess the last few days because she wouldn’t talk to him anymore. I knew from the beginning that she had goodness in her, I saw it the very
