“I heard you are good with knives” he stated “I loathe weaklings, you put Shawn’s life at risk and I would not want that repeated. I have not accepted you into my pack, so prove you are not weak and pick the knives”I hesitated but did as he said.“You will only be accepted into this pack if you can hurt me with that knife”Was he expecting me to fight him after I just saw him smashing a wolf's head against a tree like it was nothing?“If you are not up for the challenge, I suggest you leave the pack now”Leaving the pack was not an option, I have a goal and only if I stay in the pack would I be able to fulfill the goal.“It's not a fair fight” I blurted out.“What do you mean” he bent his head a little studying my every movement.“You are an alpha, our strengths are on different levels” Despite me speaking out, deep down, I was shaking.“That's why you have your knives, and to make it easier, I won't move from where I am standing. I am only on defense, so I think that will give you a
After dinner, I left the dining room, my thoughts still going back to what had happened in the woods with Kai.He was not going to accept me in the pack because I was weak. I could not let an opportunity like this slip from my hands, staying in the crescent pack was the only way I would defeat the dark moon pack.I needed to get stronger and prove to him that I was not weak.I suddenly bumped into a hard wall.“Ouch” had I been thinking so much that I walked into a wall.I rubbed my forehead and looked up to meet Preston's gaze.“I don't want to know what you were thinking about, but you should watch where you are going”I was sure I had left Preston at the dinner table, then how did he get here?“I….”“Is this about Kayden”My eyes widened, did he know that Kayden and I kissed?“No” I shouted immediately as my face heated up.“Your reaction is unexpected” he hummed and I realized that I had replied to him way too quickly to arouse suspicion that I was hiding something.“No…. It's…. K
KAI I watched her as she scurried off, seeing her reaction was really amusing.“Do I need to paste it on the wall of the house, so that no one should be shirtless?” Preston scolded from inside my study.I shut the door and went to my desk “You wanted to meet me as soon as I shifted back after taking a run in the woods. It wasn't my fault that I was shirtless” I slumped on the chair behind the desk.“You are impossible to deal with” Preston sighed.“Why did you want to meet me” I leaned closer to the desk“What happened in the woods with Amber”“I told Shawn to investigate it” I looked at the wall clock “he is supposed to be here….”The door to my study opened and Shawn walked in.“I swear I don't know what you all will do without me” he placed a file on my table “These are the list of the rebels from the Poldock pack”I took the file and glanced through it.“And the wolves that attacked Caren’s daughter in the woods”“They are savage wolves” Shawn sat on the couch that was opposite Pr
AMBERI had looked for Nathan around the house, but I could not find him, he did not even have breakfast with us.Preston said he would talk to Nathan about training me, but I could not find him.I saw one of the twins heading out, and I quickly went to meet him.“Hey Ma…” I trailed off not knowing which of the twins it was.“Oh hi Amber” his cheerful tone rang out“Have you seen Nathan?” I asked“I guess he would be at the pack house…. Do you need anything”“I just wanted to speak with him”“If it's urgent, I can take you there”“Hope I am not bothering you”“Nah, besides Marcus and I are heading there” Oh so this was Matteo, I really need to learn how to differentiate them.“Okay thanks”He took me to the parking lot and I was surprised at the variety of cars that were there.“What took you so long” I saw Marcus leaning on a red car “Oh hey Amber”I waved at him.“She is coming with us”“You drive then” Marcus tossed the key to Matteo“You said you were going to drive, why have a ch
Did he just smirk at me?I don't know what was going through his head but it seems he wants me to fight every single last person standing here.Nobody stepped forward to challenge me and I sighed in relief, was I finally accepted?“Are you all scared of her or are you weak” Nathan was taunting them, did he really want them to fight me so badly?Immediately, a guy stepped forward, although it seemed the whole crowd wanted to step forward, I mean who would not want to step forward after being called weak by their Alpha? Of course, they would like to prove themselves, but the guy was quick to step forward ahead of everyone.He did not really look bad like my first opponent, but something about his smile did not sit right with me. He was staring at me with lewdness in his gaze.“Don’t worry, I will be gentle with you” I cringed hearing him say that.I wanted to be done with him as soon as possible, just as I was about to attack him with the sticks in my hand, he suddenly kicked them from
The bald guy withdrew his hands from my body and I slid down the wall trying to cover what was left of my dignity with my hands.Kai walked towards us, his deadly aura was overwhelming.“A…. Al….. Alpha” he stuttered and immediately, Kai trapped the guy ripping his head from his shoulder.Blood splattered to the floor. Kai was worse than a beast.I did not know I had screamed really loudly as the bald guy's headless body was tossed aside.Kai walked towards me, and that was when I noticed his eyes, they were golden.Marcus had warned me about how Kai behaved like a killing maniac when his eyes were golden, but he also said Kai’s eye color had not changed in years.Does this mean he was going to kill me, he had just ripped his own pack member’s head and there was no doubt that I would not end up like that, I was not even part of the pack yet.He moved closer to me, and I moved closer to the wall, hoping I could enter the wall and get away from him.I was frightened.He stretched his ha
It's been a few minutes since Kai brought me to his office, and while he was focused on his work, I had nothing to do.I just sat on the couch admiring how he looked cool while being focused on work.He suddenly raised his head from the computer “Stop staring” he growled.“I would, if there was something better to do” I replied “You were the one who wanted me to stay”“Would you have gone in that '' his gaze was on the clothes I was wearing.“If it means I will be away from you, then I would have”“You sound like you want to get away from me, but you keep eye fucking me”I almost choked on my saliva “I am not, don't get the wrong idea, you are the only moving thing in this room, and my eyes just happened to notice that” I defended myself.“Then stop” he replied and returned to whatever he was doing, making it more boring for me, now I couldn't even look at him and there was nothing else that caught my attention.If he did not want me to stare at him, then maintaining small talk with
We got home, and Nathan left the car immediately without saying anything, not that I was expecting him to say anything.Preston and I entered the house and just as we were about to alight the stairs, we saw Kayden who was coming down from the stairs, and as soon as he noticed us he turned around. I had a strong feeling that he had been avoiding me since what happened in his car.“Kayden ……” Preston tried to call him.“I am busy” he replied not looking back as he left“He had been behaving strangely, don't you think” Preston whispered to me and I just nodded in response.“He said it's because of a girl”“A girl” I choked out.“Despite being a playboy he never likes any girl and I don't think anyone can have this kind of effect on him,” Preston said as he climbed up the stairs.I realized where this was getting to, was I the cause of his strange behavior., it wouldn’t be because of the kiss. I tried to reassure myself.“I need to use the restroom,” I told Preston as I ran up the stairs,
