(Theia’s POV)
Leah didn’t leave me alone for the next couple of days. I couldn’t really do much, anyway. That last seizure had hit me hard, and I was still feeling drained from it. I did notice that I didn’t have the usual urge to write it down. It was like telling Dominic was enough. But I spent most of the time in bed or on the sofa, with a bucket beside me, as I couldn’t stop being sick.
“Maybe you have a stomach bug,” Leah suggested after bringing the bucket back to me. The woman was a saint, with her cleaning up after me, and getting me food and keeping me company.
“Yeah, maybe,” I said as she sat back on the sofa and started the random movie.
“You know you don’t have to hang around with me,” I said. “I’m sure you have plenty of friends and plenty of more fun stuff to do than to look after my weak ass self.” Leah pulled a scowl
(Theia’s POV) I watched Dominic’s face as I asked. I saw a flicker of something that was too quick to tell what it was. I was already nervous; I mean, this could go one way or another. The guy could think that I was a crazy person accusing him of being a mythical beast, or he could be the not so mythical beast and then have to kill me to keep his secret identity. The more the silence grew between us, the more I was starting to think that I had really fucked up. “Oh, for goodness’ sake will you at least put me out of my misery either way,” I said with a loud sigh. “Say something.” Dominic just quirked his eyebrow at me and I shrugged. “I was trying to gauge your question,” he finally said. “What do you mean?” I asked. My head was really starting to hurt. “Well, do you think I am a werewolf?” he asked. “and if you did think that, how would you react if it was true?” “Leah called you Alpha,” I said, and he nodded, “and I wa
(Theia’s POV)Dominic stayed over that night. Nothing happened, we just laid in bed together. It felt so nice to fall asleep and wake up with Dominic’s arms around me. When we got up, Dominic helped me to pack a bag with a few things.“Pack enough for a week or so,” he said. “If we need any more I can send one of my pack to come and collect, or just buy you some new stuff. But I want to make sure that you are protected.” I frowned at that.“Mark is already dead,” I said, “He’s not coming back is he,” and then I looked up at Dominic in alarm, “Oh god, he can’t come back from the dead can he?” I asked and Dominic laughed. But then he got serious again and looked like he was thinking.“Actually, you never know with sorcerers,” he said, and I stared at him. “Seriously, he was a sorcerer?” I asked, wow my world was just getting big
(Dominic’s POV)I jumped out of the car and ran around the other side to get the door for Theia. She gave me the side eye as she unbuckled her seatbelt. I could see that she was nervous about being here, but I knew that once she got settled in that she would love it here.Sunset Rose pack had a turbulent past. Philip Hanison, the Alpha before my father, had been a tyrant. He had treated his pack like animals, especially the omega ranks. My father had joined the pack after meeting my mother, who was Philip’s sister, at a mating ball. My father had rebelled against Philips’ awful ways and, with the help of the majority of the pack, had managed to challenge him for the Alpha title. Philip lost the challenge and had been exiled and had his Alpha rank stripped. But my father had worked hard before I was born to turn the pack around and turn it into an amazing place that werewolves wanted to be a part of. And at just short of 12
(Theia’s POV)“And the bathroom is through here,” I watched Leah as she danced around the room showing me things, while I got my breath back from climbing all those stairs.“I’ll get Dominic to clear some space so that you can put your things in there,” she said as she came back out, “But there is space for you in the closet.”“Leah,” I said, and she looked at me, “I’m only here for a couple of days.” Leah pulled a face that said she didn’t agree and carried on talking about the room.I looked around. It wasn’t really a room, it was a full apartment or something. And it was at least double the size of mine. There was a living room, with a separate mini kitchen and then four bedrooms. The main bedroom, the one I was sitting in now, had an ensuite bathroom, but then there was a separate bathroom as well. There was even a roof terrace. It wa
(Theia’s POV)I clung to Dominic as he carried me through the woods back to the house. I kept looking over his shoulder to see Liam walking close behind. He just grinned or winked at me when our eyes made contact. I ended up burying my head into Dominic’s shoulder instead.When we got back to the house, Dominic carried me up the stairs and to the bedroom. I finally opened my eyes when he had put me down on the bed.“Did you have another vision?” he asked, and I looked over at Liam, who was standing by the door. Dominic followed my direction of sight and frowned.“Liam, can you go get Doctor Baxter please?” he asked, and Liam narrowed his eyes.“It’s okay, I’ll mindlink him now,” he said and Dominic shook his head.“I want a moment alone with my mate,” he said. “Please go get him,” Liam glared at the back of Dominic&rsq
(Theia’s POV) I was woken up by Dominic. I opened my eyes to see him smiling at me. I looked at the clock on the nightstand and saw it was a little after 5pm. “I thought you might want a shower and stuff before dinner,” Dominic said, and I nodded. “Oh god, yes please,” I said. Despite it feeling like half of Dominic’s family and friends hating me, I still wanted to make a good impression. I climbed out of bed and made my way to the bathroom. I immediately saw that a shelf had been cleared and my things were there. That made me smile a little. I quickly got a shower and brushed my teeth before going back out into the bedroom wrapped in a towel. I looked around and saw my bag now empty by the closet door. I opened the closet and saw all my clothes hung up on one side. I pulled out a blue dress and some underwear and began to get dressed. I was just brushing out my hair when Dominic opened the bedroom door and leaned against th
(Theia’s POV) “Nice of you both to join us,” I blushed at Dominic’s mother’s knowing smile as we entered the dining room. Just what I needed, the whole room to know that we were just… “Sorry we’re late,” Dominic said as he held out a seat for me. “We got a little distracted,” Leah giggled and I wanted the floor to open up and swallow me. “It’s to be expected dear,” his mother said, and then leaned over and patted his father’s hand, “We were like rabbits when we first felt the bond, isn’t that right dear?” “Mum!” Leah called, the look of horror on her face. Logan started laughing and hid his face. “You’ll understand when you find your mate,” their mother replied, looking adoringly at her mate. I saw Leah glance at Liam and then pull a face. “Doubtful,” she said, “Not everyone gets the fairytail.” my eyes widened as Liam shot her a glare before covering it with pulling out his phone. He didn’t see that I saw,
(Theia’s POV)I looked down at the ring in the velvet box. It was beautiful. It was made up of a central stone that was a pale pink and then clear stones surrounding it. It glittered in the moonlight. Everything about this was perfect, like it was something in a book or a movie. Dominic smiled up at me with all the love in his eyes. I believed every word he said when he said I was the love of his life. The setting was amazing, a private island on a lake with the moon shining down. It was absolutely perfect. Everything a girl could ask for. Everything I ever dreamed of.“No,” I said quietly. I watched Dominic’s face fall and felt my heart break. He looked down at the ground, and then back up at me, confusion clear on his face.“What?” he asked, and I shook my head. I sat down on the ground and he moved to sit next to me. I felt tears running down my face.“Baby,” Domi
