Xavier could feel his heart beating frantically against his chest. He didn't know what to do. On one hand here was the girl who seemed to always be doing everything in her power to rile him up. And he had tried his best to stay away from her but each time he did, it seemed as though there was a part of him that was tugging at his heart forcing him back towards her.He hated that he had little to no control of his emotions when it came to her. He let out a sigh from his lips as he looked down at her body. She had managed to settle down. And to think that only moments later he had been seconds away from ending this game of cat and mouse that was playing between them.He lifted up her body quickly, ignoring the way that her body seemed to fit perfectly in his arms as he made his way over to the couch in the room. He smiled at her softly before losing her body down gingerly on air.“Apha you need to hurry.” He heard a voice ring out through his head. His face immediately hardened at the s
Xavier was left frozen in his spot as though they had come out of no where. He watched as the witches appeared before his very eyes. He felt a wave of anger come over him as he struggled to control himself. He didn't know why it was that he felt as though he had no control of his own behavior anymore.He hated the feeling and he wanted nothing more than to put an end to it once and for all. He suddenly remembered where exactly he was as he slowly turned around and took a look at his men. They had a blank state in their faces and a look which he wasn't entirely sure that he could decipher.He let out a sigh from his lips as he looked at them intently. He wouldn't let his mask slip and allow them to believe that there was anything that was remotely wrong.He looked towards the bodies that lay on the ground as he felt his jaw clench. “Find a way for them to be prepared for a proper burial.” He spoke as his voice echoed through the room.The men seemed to anal out of their thoughts at h
He watched as her smile seemed to falter for a moment as she let out a sigh from her lips. “I am okay i guess but i have missed you. You haven't been coming to see me.” She said to him with a slight piut.He felt guilty as he looked at her. He didn't know how to explain to her that the reason he had been avoiding her was because every time he did look at her it felt as though he was looking at a different woman.“I am sorry i have been busy.” He said to her cryptically. He didn't want to alarm her or cause her any worry. “What happened is something wrong?” She asked him suddenly.“It's nothing, I assure you. Just a bit of trouble with the witches.” He said to her and she felt her body tense. “Witches as in my coven or witches as in the witch you got to protect me and our children. The one you didn't consult me about.” She said to him in an accusing tone.He scratched the back of his head. “I already told you that I had no choice. I need her to make sure that you stay well. We can see
Once Xavier was finally able to wake up he felt as though he was an entirely different person. He fluttered his eyes back open and smiled as he looked at the the loving face of his Luna.She smiled back at him with a glint in her eyes and he let out a sigh of relief as she looked over at him. How could he find it in himself not to fall in love withHer. It was practically impossible:“Do you feel better know?” She asked him and he nodded his head at her in response causing her to let out a relieved sigh.“You see this is why you need me as well as the reason why we need each other.” She said to him as she watched him lay his head on her lap gently. She let out a sigh from her lips as she ran her hand through his hair. He was able to slowly close his eyes as he rested his head on her belly.They were both pulled out of their thoughts when they heard a knock on the door. He sat up straight as his expression quickly changed into a cold one.“Come in.” He said to the person coldly. They l
He looked towards his beta with clear sorry on his face . He knew that he couldn't show too much concern for her but he couldn't risk having her die.“What does this mean. How do we get her out of it?” He asked desperately. “I don't know. That is up to you to decide. I think the only person that can help her now is you. How did she get into this?” He asked.He sighed. “The witches. They did this.” He muttered. “Well then if this is a spell do you know the only way to best break a spell is through a strong bond.” He said to him and before the Alpha could fire anything else back at him he reached out and patted his shoulder with a small smile.He turned then to leave and Xavier wanted to thank him but for a moment it seemed like a strange thing to consider. Their friendship had been in shambles already and to think that he could fix it with a simple thank you was nothing more than wishful thinking.He gulped as he watched him leave before taking a deep breath. He knew what he had to do
Nora felt her hands tremble as she struggled to get out of his hold. She could see that his eyes were bright yellow meaning that his wolf was bound to make an appearance on the surface.She gulped as she attempted to push him away. “Let go of me.” She scoffed. He only let out a chuckle and from the way that his voice seemed to be slightly deeper she couldn't help but feel dread as she realized that it wasn't him that she was talking to but rather his wolf.“Hello little mate. I am glad to finally get to meet you.” He said to her but she couldn't focus, all she could feel was the burning against her neck. She reached out her hand to touch it and she couldn't help but gasp when she realized how deep it was.“Why did you do that to me?” She asked him in a trembling tone. He only chuckled as he reached out and stroked her cheek lightly. He let out a sigh. “I am sorry for that. I didn't mean to. But you were dying and it seemed as though it would be the only way to save you. The injury was
Right in the junction between her shoulder and her neck, she was met with rough jagged skin. It was a bright red and looked as though it has been touched violently. She couldn't believe what she was seeing and for a second she almost broke down again.She had never seen a mark before but she knew that this was far from what it was supposed to look like. What she feared the most was the thought of what would happen now. She knew deep inside of her that it couldn't be anything good.When she touched the skin she couldn't help but cry out as she let a jolt of electricity go through her. She didn't feel pain but it wasn't pleasurable either. In that moment all she wanted to do was wash the memories of what had happened off her body.She made her way shakily to the toilet as she took a deep breath before allowing the hot water to heat up her skin. For a moment it served as a decent dustraction for her.She managed to make her way out of the shower several minutes later and wrapped a towel
After her words the room soon fell into a thick silence. She stared him down as though she was trying to tell if he was being real. After a moment he broke his gaze away from her own.He looked as though there was something he wanted to say but he refrained himself from saying anything. He looked at her as though he were staring at her longingly for a moment longer before he let out a sigh and walked past her. He stopped at the door and he turned back to then look at her through the corner of his eyes.“I will be downstairs.” He said and that was the only words that dared to come out of his mouth. She watched him walk out of the door as the door slammed shut and the sound echoed loudly through the room. She flinched instinctively at the sound as she breathed deeply.She wasn't going to allow herself to cry. She didn't know what she had been expecting but an apology was the least of it.She sucked in a deep breath as the last thing that she wanted was to have another break down in fron
