Asher holds my gaze for a moment, the pain wasn’t as severe when his eyes look deep into mine. I still hadn’t a clue what has happening with me but for some reason, now Asher was close by and reassured me I was going to be okay; I wasn’t scared anymore.But the little break I had from the pain didn’t last long, the burning sensation which spread throughout my body was more intense than it had been before. I couldn’t contain the blood curdling scream which left my lips, my heels digging into the floor as I lay there. Once I opened my eyes, I see Asher watching me with such remorse in his expression.“I will go and run you a cold bath, do not go anywhere.” He tells me sternly before getting to his feet and walking towards the bathroom, what does this guy think I’m going to do in this predicament, run a gosh darn marathon?!But now he had gotten further away from me, the pain only increased to a higher level than before. I roll to my stomach and begin to sob from the pain, I didn’t want
I jump awake to find myself back in my hospital bed, my mother sat beside me looking down to the floor. She hadn’t noticed that I had woken up, but I got a sense, something wasn’t right about this situation.“Mum?” I ask worry clear on my expression; she lifts her hand to her face and seems to wipe away tears before she shows me her face with her faint smile.“My little sunflower, it’s great to see you awake.” She smiles taking my hand in hers, but I wasn’t dumb and knew she was hiding something to spare my feelings.The door opens and in walks my father, he also had remanence of tears on his cheeks. But once the door closes behind him and no one else walks in, I begin to feel sick to my stomach.“Mum, where’s Scott?” I ask the terrified feelings that had been growing from seeing both parents cry start to reach a bubbling over point.I knew Scott had been injured, but I was told he was being taken into surgery. The doctors were able to help me, so I knew they’d be able to do the same
I begin to make my way down the huge staircase in the pack house, nobody was around like they have been normally. This factor caused an uneasy feeling to spread throughout my body, I would see this when I first arrived here. The halls would be abandoned, and the entire town resembled a ghostly set, as if I wasn’t allowed to see what was happening. Was that done intentionally before, maybe they didn’t want me to see them all turn into wolves!But deep down I knew it was best nobody was here, now I know they are all really werewolves which have the ability to tear me apart limb from limb, I needed some space to try and get my head around it all. I soon reach the pack house door and enter into the twilight sky, this seeming to be the atmosphere I’ve been faced with lately.I take a deep breath in, allowing the crips air to run through my body before making my way down the steps and following the path. This was one I hadn’t taken before, which was certainly, also a running theme in my lif
Liv had peacefully, fallen asleep beside Asher who couldn’t wipe the smile from his lips if he tried. Since first laying his eyes on his mate, he’s wanted to to tell her what they were so they could start acting like mates. But he also knew she was human, the world she has become accustomed to is far different to the world he lives in.He still had the concepts of her being his Luna and the packs Luna to attempt to explain, but that conversation could wait a little longer for her to come to terms with them being mates and the werewolf world as a whole. He lay in the silence of the room, taking in all that he could from this moment. What he had told Liv was true, after spending years of his life searching for his mate, he thought he wouldn’t get one.He is known by many other packs to be a ruthless, aggressive Alpha, all of his pack members know that when he talks, they listen. His pack has not always been the biggest in the land, his father had grew it substantially before Asher took
I wake up to the bed moving slightly, opening up my eyes I see Asher rubbing his eyes but still in the same suit as last night. I was a little too disoriented to really comprehend what was happening, but when he looks down and spots that I’m awake, he leans back down.“It’s okay mi amour, I have some things I need to attend to this morning, go back to sleep.” He says stroking my hair with his hand, I watch him for a second before listening and closing my eyes once again.I feel him place a kiss on my head before the sounds of footsteps and the door opening and closing fills the room, I knew this meant he’d left so I attempted to go back to sleep. But the longer I wound lay there, the more sleep felt distant and subsequently, never came.I open up my eyes and turn to the window, the sky was still pretty dark with the sun slowly beginning to rise telling me it was still quite early in the morning. What things would Asher need to do at this time of the morning? I sit up straight doing a
I headed straight to my room after shouting at Asher, I still didn’t know what to make of the situation that just occurred. I understand that he didn’t actually do anything to those men, but what if I hadn’t have shown up and stopped it, I know he wouldn’t think twice about killing those men.But that wasn’t the part which was making me more upset, it was the fact he was doing it because of what the men tried to do to me. Yes, he’s just looking out for me and of course, I wanted those men to receive some kind of punishment for what they did, but not death! What if he had gone through with it, would all of those people believe it was something I wanted to happen?To put those thoughts at the back of my mind, I head to my wardrobe taking out some decent clothes because the choice I had made in a rush, was not a good one. My hair was also turning into a disaster, so after a couple of minutes of brushing, I looked much more presentable. But once I leave the bathroom when I was all done, I
Waking up beside Asher felt good, it had to be one of the nicest sleeps I’ve had in a long time. Since everything I was forced to endure back home, I always felt lost and scared when I would wake up alone. But when I awoke today, the feeling of belonging engulfed my entire being and I felt free in a sense.Asher would normally, leave to get some important work done but today he didn’t. We woke up around lunchtime where he told me there would be no point starting work late, so he gave himself a day off to spend it with me. Asher and I actually hadn’t spent a day together since I arrived here, he always has to leave to get whatever work done. So, when he told me he’d be able to stay with me, I got extremely excited.We agreed that after we both ate, he would give me an overdue tour of the entire pack. I had been hoping somebody would show me around so next time I was alone, I would know the great spots to sit and have a peaceful time with myself.It was also the first time I’ve eaten so
After even more hours of organising, I had finally put all of the years' worth of papers away. His office looked so much neater and workable, only a few mini paper cuts as battle wounds but we were smooth sailing. I close the filing cabinet as the office door knocks twice and opens up, Cameron and Becky walking into the office with smiles on their faces but I got a feeling from them, something was on their minds.“What happened in here, I can see your desk and the floor?!” Cameron asks gobsmacked in a sense looking around, I just smile walking closer to Asher and his desk before Becky runs at full speed over to me engulfing me in a hug.“It’s great to see you better and not in excruciating pain.” She asks squeezing me so tightly that she cut off my air for a second, but I was soon released where she takes a step back looking at me. “It’s also amazing that we no longer have to hide things from you, I see you’re not running for the hills after learning about werewolves.” She smiles whic
