CHAPTER 21: DAMSEL IN DISTRESS
FREYA'S POV:
The chilly silence is more painful than the embarrassment flooding through me while I sit there covered in fluid.I can’t even look up at Silas, wondering the look he would be giving me right now.The crowd reacts finally and all I hear is laughter that echoes around me incessantly. Just like that, I’ve become some sort of laughing stock to the whole school — most likely to Xena and Silas as well.I bite my quivering lips, squeezing my eyes shut.I’m fine, no matter what I was going to be fine.I don’t notice when the flames from the arrow start a fire that licks up the flammable liquid spilled everywhere. In seconds, it runs up the trail to a larger puddle around me, bursting into a flaming wall of fire that engulfs everything around me.Too shocked to move, overcome by my fight adrenaline response, I remain frozen in place till Silas tackles me out of the way before the burning flames combust around me.I open my eyes, breathing hardRelated chapters
TAMING THE PLAYBOY ALPHA CHAPTER 22: CHARMING PRINCE
SILAS' POV:“So… what’s with you and Freya”“There’s nothing between she and I except the bet.”I walk to the exit of the small shack, having no reason to be here anymore. He tags along, following closely behind and ignoring the obvious cues I’ve been giving him to leave me.“It doesn’t seem like just that, Silas.”I pause in my steps. “What are you insinuating right now?“You’ve never risked your relationship with Elena for one of your bets before. You draw a line at that. Now you’re choosing one as your partner for the solstice event?”I can understand the origin of his doubt. I admit to myself things have been a bit different with Freya and at varying points, spiraled beyond my expectations. I find myself going out of my way to please her, doing things I’ve never done or considered doing for anyone else, but I tell myself that Freya also isn’t like other girls. She’s more witty and daring, going against the flow of the crowd and not flin
TAMING THE PLAYBOY ALPHA CHAPTER 23: I'M HARRY
FREYA'S POV:The beating organ in my chest pulses at an abnormal rate to a faster rhythm. My wolf howls within me, urging me to let it all go and take his hand, risk it all and follow him — and let him in.My cautious nature takes over and I hesitate again.“Don’t tell me you’re going to leave me hanging.” He’s so smug and prideful, yet there’s something that draws me to him that I can’t seem to understand. It should appall me but I find it intriguing.I stretch out my hand to his but then wary, I pull it back.“How am I sure you’re not trying to kidnap me and sell my organs to some shady organization?” I’m speaking gibberish now. Maybe it’s to hide my fear or whatever it is inside me.He laughs out, not expecting my answer.“I’m sure you have beautiful organs but right now, I’m interested in the completely whole Freya.”It’s stupid but I laugh, despite the coldness on the tips of my fingers from my anxiety.“Just give me a chance,
TAMING THE PLAYBOY ALPHA CHAPTER 24: BY MY SIDE
FREYA'S POV: Unfortunately, though as against his promise, we don’t make it back before Xena is done taking her bath. By the time I’m back, she’s full-on panicking and about to report me missing.After an hour of intense chiding, she finally settles down. We laugh and finally fall asleep.The rest of the week runs by with me taking extra care in being invisible and unseen. The rumors about my performance still actively spreads around school and I try my very best to ignore them altogether. Xena sticks closely with me, threatening every Bill and Harry that dares to even whisper my name with her eyes. The effect results in complete silence where ever we go but I don’t mind it. Infact, it's everything I need and more.And then, the first day of the solstice event arrives.School hours are apparently cut in half, which for me is the only good thing that comes with it. It’s funny how a few days ago, I had been excited by the idea of it. Now,
TAMING THE PLAYBOY ALPHA CHAPTER 25: CRAVE ME
FREYA'S POV:The solstice festival is riddled with games of different categories. Students compete to win and winners are honored by the Alpha king. It’s the highest honor one can get as a student and it opens bright possibilities for the future. The various categories included; archery, spear throwing, sparring and tug of war, all of which Xena was participating in — except spear throwing. I still don’t know why and no matter how hard I have tried to pry the information from her, she was adamant about keeping me in the dark, which resulted in more curiosity of course.The first category to begin is archery. I had hoped it would be a long while before I set my eyes on another bow and arrow again but here I am.The participants line up with their gear, ready to begin. From my spot, I see Xena in her attire, hair tied up and looking all badass with her bow. She pulls off the whole Artemis look effortlessly. I want to scream her name out but my whole judge ac
TAMING THE PLAYBOY ALPHA CHAPTER 26: FRIENDS AND FIGHTS
FREYA'S POV:Xena crashed onto the soft plush bed layered with wool and cotton covers, sighing in sweet relief. The warm bath definitely did a lot of good to her tensed-up joints and generally relaxed her after the most tasking day of flaunting her goddess-given talents.I sat stiffly on the edge of my bed with a small smile — a small forced smile. Behind it though, the various thoughts revolving around her ominous history with her supposed rival and now past ex, swirl endlessly in my mind.I smile nevertheless, because what else am I supposed to do about it? I want to pry so badly that the edges of my forced smile cracks a little but I reinforce it. It’s a delicate topic and I need to gently slide it out of her, like a very greasy baby.“I am so out of it. I think I’m going to call it a night.”“Right now? No way.”“I have to. I’m participating in tomorrow’s sparring category, remember?”Darn it! I had forgotten about that one.“Well… there
TAMING THE PLAYBOY ALPHA CHAPTER 27: SILVER-LINED WALLS
FREYA'S POV:I read the message on my phone for the tenth time since I had received it. She had given little to no detail on what we were going to talk about — if she had gotten over our argument, if she was still pissed. Her words had been very curt and simple.‘We need to talk, meet me below the school in the basement.’She proceeded to give a most detailed direction on how to get there, probably imagining that I’d have trouble finding my way. Honestly, it felt a little ominous to me but I’m desperate right now. If she was finally ready to let me in, I would do it in a place she was most comfortable in — even if it was below the school, in restricted areas students were not allowed to walk into.But would she really forgive me? Would we go back to how things were?A part of me begins regretting rejecting Silas’ offer to tag along. I had seen it as an effort to only bother me further but the company would have done well to keep my negative thoughts at
TAMING THE PLAYBOY ALPHA CHAPTER 28: RAGE
SILAS' POV:“I don’t know. I never texted her.”Suddenly, my wolf is on high alert and I’m standing on my feet. I can’t remain still. I’m overwhelmed with emotions that rattle me too much.“What do you mean you didn’t text her?” I growl lowly. Something’s not right. My gut speaks louder now. My gut was never wrong.“I haven’t been with my phone all morning. It’s been missing from my bag.” She’s shivering now from the menacing pressure of my Alpha dominance, compelling her to tell me everything she knows.I’ve heard it’s a painful feeling, almost like suffocation. I uncontrollably unleash it, forcing her to bow her head and avoid my eyes while she trembles.Freya… Where the hell is she? Always getting into trouble the moment I look away. I shouldn’t have let her go alone, no matter how insistent she had been on going alone. I should have atleast sent someone with her, knowing she’s a walking trouble magnet.“Fuck!” I slam my fist agains
TAMING THE PLAYBOY ALPHA CHAPTER 29: SWEET ANGEL
FREYA'S POV:I feel my lungs slowly collapsing.It’s harder to breathe than a few minutes ago. My consciousness goes away from me as my body grows light. I don’t know if it’s due to the lack of oxygen or the silver around me shutting down my entire system forcefully… and then the pain. Pain like fire burns against my flesh as I grow weaker but my light-headedness seems to calm the effect.My vision blurs even more and I wonder, is this how I leave this earth?I think of Xena and I feel guilt and sadness. I had really wanted her to smile at me once more. I really wanted us to get along really well.Adam… Lucas… We could have been really close friends.Silas…His warm smile lingers in my mind. The melodious echo of his sweet laughter resounds in my ear. Had it always sounded so pretty? It had actually. I realize I just never really wanted to admit to myself how much I wanted to hear him laugh over and over again at anything, even at
