FORTY-EIGHTThe house in front of me looked like most of the houses in the pack, it had two stories and looked comfortable enough for a family but I knew better. Inside that house lived a monster who abused his children, the flowers that were planted in front of the house could mislead anyone, thinking that it is a normal house to a normal family. I walked until I was on the porch, the wooden floor creaked upon my weight and the heels of my boots made a clicking sound on the boards. Micah had remained in the car and Adam was behind me, following closely. I did not want to enter the man's house with two grown warriors, I did not want to intimidate the enemy just yet. My knuckles made contact with the door and I knocked loud enough for it to be heard. After knocking for the fifth time, the door finally opened and Lila was the one behind it.She looked at me with wide and panicked eyes and mouthed the words 'what are you doing here?' but I only smiled at her. "Hello, I am looking for Lio
FORTY-NINELila had started sobbing in the car as we drove to the packhouse, I held her close to me and petted her hair until we had reached the destination. Adam who was driving got out of the car and left me with Lila as I continued whispering assuring words to her. It reminded me of the last time I had chased her into the woods but I was glad that she was not crying for her and Samantha's wellbeing this time. I was glad that I was able to eradicate the problem, getting her father the proper care he needs to become better. All that I had to focus on as of now was to make sure that Lila and Samantha were okay. I had the responsibility of taking care of them even if Samantha did not think that I was the best person."Come on let's get you and your sister a room that you can share," I said with an enthusiastic smile and she nodded.We got out of the car and walked into the house, I walked with her until we were in front of Alec's office on the third floor. I knocked on the door and Ale
FIFTY Anabelle shuffled and turned in the bed and her eyes finally opened. She stretched and smiled when memories of the previous day invaded her mind. She had managed to help a family in the pack and now they were safe, that gave her a boost to the ego she needed as a Luna. And she ended the day with her mate’s arms around her. Her smile grew further and she raised her body from the comfortable bed and pulled her hair. She heard the silent sound of the shower and her mind envisioned images of Jaxon under the shower with water dripping down his glorious body. It took everything in her not to stand from the bed and wonder into the bathroom to save water with him. Anabelle shook her head to rid of the explicit images in her mind. She got out of bed and grabbed one of Jaxon’s dress shirts from the closet before walking out of the room and down to the kitchen. She thought about having to move her things from her room to Jaxon’s. The thought alone made her giddy, it would be their room a
FIFTY ONE Anabelle continued pacing around her room and kept ruffling her hair, she was the definition of confused and distraught. The room was a complete mess, clothes were lying on the bed messily and there were other things that littered the floor. The closet was cleared and now empty. She had to clear everything important and move her things to Jaxon’s room…hers and Jaxon’s room. After getting the shock of the day, she had decided to go home because she had nothing important to do at the packhouse. She told Jaxon that she was going to move her things when she left the packhouse and he had offered to send an omega with her but she had declined. She was now slightly regretting her refusal because pain was now surging through her head. Everything that was happening was too much to handle, things were moving too fast for her to keep up. She sat down at the edge of the bed and pulled at the roots of her hair. The door opened and Danielle entered the room, a full smile on display. Sh
FIFTY TWO When Anabelle opened her eyes she did not expect Jaxon to still be next to her with his arm draped over her waist protectively. When she looked up she met his gaze and a raspy ‘good morning’ which made her face form a smile and her body to instinctively move closer to him. A hum left her chest as Jaxon’s body heat spread to her, she was more than happy in this bubble. It was not really a usual thing for Jaxon to stay late in bed but when he did, his mate was the happiest. Their legs were tangled around each other and there was no space in between their bodies, their breaths meeting and body heat being shared. The blankets shielding them from the intensity of the weather. They both liked this very much. “You should do this more often. Staying in bed with me.” Anabelle said with a huge smile. “Mhm,” he hummed and ran a hand through her hair. “It has grown long.” He noticed and commented as his hand traced the hair that was once shoulder length. “Oh, I’m supposed to get a h
FIFTY-THREEAnabelle kept on massaging her body parts that were in pain because of the number of times she had hit the floor. She continuously kept on complaining and she was more bitter because she had not been able to get Jaxon on the floor equivalent to the number of times he had landed her on the floor. Twenty to one was nowhere near equivalent, if anything the one still felt like a zero. Jaxon had a smug look on his face through the whole thing which only made Anabelle huff and roll her eyes in annoyance. When they finished, Jaxon told Micah and Adam to go harder on her. His exact words were, 'Don't go easy on her. There is a reason why she is my Luna'.Anabelle would have probably lost thirty or forty more times if Danielle had not arrived and told them that it was time to go to the hair salon.Anabelle dragged Jaxon with her because he had promised to spend the entire day with her. Anabelle was not very sure about the hair colour but she wanted her hair to be shoulder length. W
CHAPTER FIFTY-FOURANABELLETwo days. Only two days were remaining before I could take the place of Luna and undergo all the ceremonies and festivals. Needless to say, I was more than worried about what was going to happen, Cora had mentioned the fact that I had to prove that I was indeed worthy of taking on the duty of being the Luna of Blazepelt. This meant that if I was not able to overcome the rouges then I would be deemed unworthy of being Blazepelt's Luna and Jaxon's mate too. I was ready to overcome all the odds to be by my mate's side and be his Luna officially but doubt kept on piling and creeping in. I had continued my training with Adam and Micah and I knew that I could defend myself and kill someone but who knew how many rouges they would give me? I was very sure that they would not go easy on me especially since I was the first female from another pack to be mated to an Alpha of Blazepelt.I was seated with Vera outside the ice cream parlour. She had tried multiple times
CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVETHIRD PERSONAnabelle did not know what time she had slept or how she had ended up in her bed but she knew that she had drank a few bottles of wine which had caused the slight hammering of her head. She could smell the drink on herself when she woke up and was disgusted by it, she stood from the bed and rushed to the bathroom. While getting rid of the awful smell and taking a much-needed bath she suddenly remembered that she had woken up but not seen Jaxon. She finished doing everything and wore a coat over her skirt and shirt with a bit of makeup and did not forget to take some painkillers in the cabinets for the minor headache. She went downstairs and found Jaxon in the kitchen, he handed her a cup while saying good morning and she accepted the cup with a greeting and a smile. She took a seat and took a whiff of what was in the cup with her nose before taking gulps of it. "You went hard on these last night," Jaxon said as he threw bottles of wine in the bin. Not
