Her eyes latched on the icy peaks of snow-capped mountains that stood tall and proud in a distance. On one of those lived the notorious witch. The gusts of cold wind started to nip at their bone as they drew near the mountain. Azriel and Dustin were not as affected by the chilly wind as Sienna was. They had their wolf blood running in their veins. Azriel thought it would be better to shift in their wolf form for easy navigation. He looked over at Sienna who had now started to shiver with cold. Her arms were wrapped around her in an attempt to detain the heat. Azriel took off his shirt and walked over to her. "Here, take it," Azriel stretched his arm out and offered it to her. Sienna first looked at the shirt and then at him in surprise. "Ain't you cold?" Sienna looked at his bare chest in horror. He was not wearing anything. Azriel rolled his eyes. "You keep forgetting I am a wolf, Harrison. Cold doesn't affect me as much as it does you. Now take it. I am going to shift anywa
The ground under them shook thunderously, drowning out all the other noise. The walls had started to chip away crumb by crumb. Her horror-filled orbs flitted around the cave in search of any escape but all she could see was a vast expanse of darkness. Her heart shrank with unfiltered dread and without her knowing a shriek tore through her lungs. The grim ripper had set his forbidding gaze on them. This was the end. They were going to die. She was going to die without bringing her parents' killer to justice. "Sienna." her head snapped in the direction from where her name was yelled. Her mate was looking at her with deep concern. He started towards her. "Oh, shit," Dustin shouted, horrified, and before Azriel could shield her with his body the roof collapsed down on them. "Aahhh," Sienna shot up screaming, coated in a thick layer of sweat. She placed a hand on her heart that was close to bursting and closed her eyes to calm herself.The memories rushed back and she frowned. How was
She woke up alone in the morning. The disappointment was quick to hit her when she didn't find him around. Where did it come from she didn't know but she had expected to wake up in his arms. Curbing her thoughts, she yawned and slid down from her bed to start the day. As freakish as it may sound, they were back to the same day they had set their journey on. It almost felt like they had never embarked on their journey into that magical woods. She knew some magic was at play. She was brought from her thoughts when she collided with someone. A sharp sound of cups crashing against the floor pierced through the air. "I am sorry," Sienna crouched down and started gathering the broken pieces. " It's okay, ma'am. Let me take care of it," An unfamiliar voice hit her ear before a wrinkly hand reached forward and carefully took all the pieces from her hand. She looked up instantly to find an old woman sitting in front of her. Her violet eyes were boring holes into her blue ones. There was
Sienna lifted her knee and made no further delay in kicking him where the sun doesn't shine. His growls of passion turned into grunts of pain. Azriel groaned and doubled over. A moment later, he looked up. "Fuck, Harrison," he hissed and shot her a death glare while covering his crotch with his hand. She would lie if she said the pain etched across his features didn't give her an odd satisfaction. Sienna smirked at him, satisfied with her work. He deserved it so very much. "Get out of my room," she turned around and spoke nonchalantly. Lifting her hand up, she wiped her lips, "and don't touch me ever again," she added venomously. She had hardly taken a few steps when she was yanked around by him. "What is wrong with you?" he asked, annoyed. His brows were almost knitted together. "What is wrong with me? What is wrong with you? Why did you mark me when you want Alyssia," she shot back angrily. Azriel ground his teeth in passive aggression. "You would have died if not for my
Sienna halted in her steps when she saw The imperials standing around Azriel's car in a group. The ripples of smoke were swirling in the air as they smoked away without a care. She covered her face with her hood and hung her head low in an attempt to hide from those bullies. She hoped not to get noticed by them as she propelled her legs towards the building. "Hey, shortie," Millie shouted to her. Sienna groaned inwardly but halted. She knew if she wouldn't they would make her regret that. "Shortie thought we will not notice her," Lucas flipped her hood down and joined Millie. "If that's what she was aiming at then she should have started with wearing the highest heel that is there on earth," Alyssia joined. The crowd burst out laughing as Millie high-fived Alyssia for her "impeccable" comic timing. "Where is that lapdog of yours?" Garter, another jerk from the group asked. " He is a friend," she inwardly cursed herself for stuttering in front of them. Her bullies loved to see her
Realization dawned on his face. He stared at her with his mouth agape before irritation swept through his features."Stop being jealous of Alyssia. It doesn't suit you," his eyes narrowed in disapproval as he admonished her. His comment caused her temper to flare up. Her face hardened. "And it suits you? You can beat Dustin out of jealousy but I can't even raise a question? Some double standards you have. For your information, I wasn't jealous. I just raised a valid question. If you don't have an answer to it that's fine. I don't need an answer anyway. I already know," she stammered with rage. Ridges of his neck became dangerously pronounced as he stepped forward, looming in on her. "No," his voice had deepened with anger. She felt a stab of fear. His face had darkened with fury and his two eyes were flaming. "I did not tell her this. I did not because I don't care about her. She is not my mate nor do I care who she sleeps with," saying that, he gripped her jaw in a tight hold, f
Excitement laded the air. The sun peeked through the rolling clouds. It was a sunny day but not too hot. Just the perfect day to go on a date or picnic. A perfect day for the mating ceremony. Sienna made her way to the public garden. On her way, she passed by excited teens gushing about the ceremony. It was like an annual festival for the wolves. Sienna could never understand what they found so exciting about today. She quietly walked towards the garden. Her eyes turned round in admiration when she spotted multiple canopies standing in the garden. They were small in size but at least twenty in number. Their presence was giving a romantic air. She walked nearer and saw a man mowing the grass. The preparation was in full swing. Her wandering eyes clapped onto Azriel who was engaged in a conversation with one of the workers. She watched as he drew a breath and suddenly stopped talking. She began to count in her head. 1..2..."Before she could breathe 3, his eyes darted in her direc
She collected her gown and got down from the car. Her eyes lit up with admiration when she turned her face to the garden. The venue resembled a piece of heaven on earth. The exquisitely put fairy lights had chased off the darkness and brightened the night. But the man-made light didn't match with the glow of the moon shining above. The sky was illuminated with its soft glow. Love was in the air. It sailed through the wind and rained down the sky. How could anyone not fall in love today? "Whoa.. I had not expected for it to look this good," Dustin spoke from beside her, silently wishing she was here. "Let's get in," he added. Sienna looked over at him and gave a nod. They walked into the garden which was already full of mates. Everyone had dressed in their best. Wolves from all over the world had arrived to officiate their mate bond. She recognized some alphas who had engaged with the alpha King in the past. Her gaze swept through the crowd in search of that one person who'd been occ
