Damien povI tried to talk her into studying but she had other plans. I was angry due to the fight I had with Darius. Everything was already tumbling down and my wolf kept growling in pain and jealousy. I wanted to beat the hell out of that asshole and make him confess the truth. I had never seen Darius so invested in someone's wellbeing before and what made it more suspicious was the fact that Ari was involved. I followed her back into my room."You are still very sick and your leg is not fully healed. At least give yourself time to heal before doing anything else." I tried to talk to her as she limped across the room looking for her belongings. "This happened in the infirmary, where you disrespect everyone due to your behaviour. The moment they are close to le, it becomes a problem. Now, this is your brother for heaven's sake if you were willing to beat his sorry ass just because he was sitting close to me when I was asleep. Damien, that isn't nice. I don't even know what to make o
Ariana povI knew I loved him but I was happy he left. Sometimes his possessiveness wasn't a good attraction. Then, no one had it complete. There was always going to be a flaw. One of the flaws I was having was my deceit. It wasn't something I was proud ifofut it was necessary.Damien never hid what he felt for me, I loved that even amid all the cruelty we have been facing lately. I hated that because he was an Alpha blood there were certain standards he had to meet. He had to be wearing the best clothes, living in the best house and hanging out with a certain kind of folks. It was annoying that he wasn't allowed to do something that might give him the happiness he needed. I was still trying to find out why being with me was shocking to them. Was I much of a low life? Was I that invisible? I smoothened my forehead with my fingers, my head was aching due to all the thinking and stress. The sedative was supposed to help me but it only increased my tiredness. I exhaled when Diana walk
Darius POVI hated arguing with Damien. He meant everything to me.My mind flashed back to when we were kids, how he always stood with and for me. It was always the best feeling knowing that he was there with me. There was peace in that even when it seemed that everyone hated me. Well, not everyone. Of all the girlfriends he has ever had. Ariana was the most mature and was very different. Her smile towards me was a kind gesture. Everything in between, for the first time in a long while, I felt seen.I was treated like a human being. Nothing else mattered. There was no snide comment against me that might make me feel worthless. Instantly, my heart went out to her. I knew I could keep her as a friend, but my brother's insecurity always got in the way of things, so I had to check my boundaries. Boundaries are important. I needed to respect his territories. I felt slightly hurt each time he brought the case up because I felt he wasn't supposed to run it in. I had dealt with that but I c
ArianaAfter Diana was in conversation Damien the previous day, they laughed so much. I was so happy that they had reconciled. I hated that i had to be in the middle of a squabble. Their contention was tiring me out and every time i thought about it it drained me. I was not a piece of hand me down clothes that you have to fight over.m or to get my attention. It became embarrassing. It was clear that he was in a good mood. It showed that he had a good moment with his brother. That was what I loved to believe.But after he had noticed that Darius had called me, I didn't know what to think any more. "What's bothering you?" Diana saw me lost in thought."Darius called.""Great, what does he want?" "He just wanted to check on me. He also offered to help me out with my assignments in school tomorrow.""Okay, go on…" Diana became impatient."I heard Damien in the background asking who he was talking to. You know how he gets and i fear they might actually be arguing over something senseles
Ariana POVWe sat down on my bed staring at one place for the past thirty minutes. My heart kept racing like I had done something wrong. I tried to think of anything to say but my words failed me. I didn't know why he was this silent, probably something else set him off. When I tried to think about it, I didn't exactly do anything wrong."You've been here and you haven't said a word." "I don't know, do I have to say something? Or maybe you have something to tell me." My mind flashed in different variations. Was he talking about Darius or something else? After emptying my stomach at the gym, I wasn't ready to be upset, I just wanted to relax my eyes and my sore bones. I wasn't ready for another fight or any secret leaking. That was what I was most worried about. There was no telling how he would react."I wish I knew what you were talking about. I wouldn't know if you don't tell me.""Good." Damien shuffled in his seat. "What were you and Darius talking about?" I let out a small sigh
Ariana POV"What are you doing?!" I yelled. "Put me down!" My struggles were futile."Ssh. It is late, you will wake the others living here." He said seriously. I was hanging upside down on his shoulders. The light that filled my eyes, suddenly dimmed into the blue darkness. "Put me down, please." "As you wish my lady." He said dropping me heavily on the bed. "Ouch!" I held my head. His bed was indeed a little bit strong. "That was not nice." My voice was muffled as the pain relieved himself a little bit more. "I was only obeying your wishes." He shrugged. "Just as I did before when you wanted to sleep in a separate room. That was not nice."Damien climbed the bed, his eyes were bare without his glasses. He had a predatory gaze, which made me scared at first. He started crawling from my feet to meet me at the crown of his bed. My heart started racing. "What are you doing?" Swallowing down my saliva. "You wanted to know If someone was sharing my bed tonight. Now, you've seen th
Ariana POV"Hey." There was awkwardness in the air. Darius continued to stare at me before blinking and wearing a smile on. "Gosh, don't tell me, you guys did it already." Damien chuckled."Did what?" I was confused. These two were speaking in a language I didn't understand."Sex.""Oh no! We still have a long way to go." I was already blushing hard."Relax, I was only messing with you." Darius said. "At least I know why you missed classes this morning.""I'm sorry I didn't show up. I slept, time went so fast."He nodded. "I would leave you two." He winked at his brother before exiting. I glared at Damien and ran out of his room and went to freshen up and dress in a sweatshirt and Jean. I wore light foot wear. I was sceptical to go at first because I didn't know where he was taking me and what he wanted to show me. No matter how hard I tried to picture what he might want me to see, there was nothing that came to mind. It was exactly twenty mins I used up in dressing up. I quickly d
Ariana POVI have never thought of being his Luna. I knew he was an alpha son and there was a lot of controversy surrounding his person. I was more focused on building a strong relationship with himI haven't really bothered about trying to tike by his side, not with what he still doesn't know yet. It was a lot of heaviness to be carrying all of that with me when he was busy planning our lives together."Ariana?""Yes, you were saying.""You seemed so lost in thought…" yeah i was, thinking of what it means for me to rule by your side when i do not even have a wolf."Yeah, I was thinking of what you said." I started. "Don't you think that it is too soon to be thinking about that?" He twitched his eyes a bit before he exhaled. Facing ahead, he notified me. "No, it is not too soon. You are my mate." I sighed internally, waiting for him to continue "An Alpha is not meant to rule a clan alone. He is supposed to do that with his mate or whoever he has chosen to get married to or live or c
