Skye's POVI woke up to the unbearable noise I was hearing. There were growls, and I could feel the cold surface as it touched my exposed skin.I struggled to open my eyes, my vision was blurry, all I saw were people fighting not far away from me."Alec..." I called out his name as I saw a figure that greatly resembled him.Soon enough, only one remained standing and the guy with the same physique as Alec walked to me in a hurry, but when he got closer, his face also got clearer."Skye, can you get up?" Nathan helped me up, I looked at him confused why he was here, and when my vision got better, I was bewildered as to how I ended up in the forest again."Alec! Where is Alec?!" I questioned, grabbing hus arms, but he just returned it with a sad look, which he quickly replaced with gruff, trying to appear strong."Alec is inside fighting them off. We have to hurry Skye. We don't have enough time." He said."Hmm-ummm..." I heard someone groaning behind me. I looked to my side and didn't
Skye's POV"Stay put." I said to Alec, pushing hus shirt up so I can see all his visible wounds.I covered the bleeding parts with my hand, and it started glowing immediately, and when the light subsided, I also removed my hands to check if the wound has closed."You know healing magic?" Alec asked. I nodded my head, pursing my lips as I helped him get up from the ground."Let's go." I ushered him out, and we ran into the forest, we didn't stop until we were far enough, and made sure that our surroundings was safe. "Can you still keep going?" I asked Alec, and he bobbed his head up and down, but I could tell that he was still under an incredible pain.I looked around and spotted a small cave, it was hidden, surround by bushes. "We can stay there for the night." I pointed to the cave, he looked at the direction I was pointing at, and looked at me apprehensively."Will you be comfortable sleeping the night here?" He asked, and I sighed inwardly. So that is what he was thinking? He was
Alec's POVWe made it to the pack safely and when the pack members saw us, they were thrilled and happy. But even with their warm expressions I still couldn't bring to make myself smile, it's just... I've fucked up big time. And a lot of warriors lost their lives because of me. I understood what Skye meant, but I know that I'm still somehow responsible for this."You made it! I knew you were alive. I knew it." Keira ran to Skye, with dried and fresh tears on her face."Shhh... I'm here now. Where's Nathan? Is he and Erin alright?" Skye asked, then everyone around went silent. Keira's tears flowed even more, biting her lips.With that reaction, I could tell there was something going on."Skye, Alec...I have something to tell you." Keira bowed her head, her body shivering violently."Nathan's didn't make it." She said, and for a moment I feel like my world was spinning. Nathan didn't make it?"What?! No, no he was fine the last time I saw him, he kept moving him and Erin. Wait, Erin, is
Skye's POV"I don't think this is working anymore. I have to be honest with you, I'm not certain if your parents are still going to wake up." The pack doctor told Alec. I rubbed his shoulders comforting him as he receive such a devastating news."So what are you telling me that my parents are good as dead?! Is that it?!" Alec yelled, me and the doctor were both startled at his reaction, but I quickly grabbed his hand when he was about to grab the poor doctor's collar."Alec stop," I pulled at him stronger, "Alec!" I exclaimed, getting his attention as his dilating eyes gradually steadied as he breathed rapidly."I'm here, just breath Alec...breath..." I pacified him. After Nathan's death, Alec has been unstable, he would burst out easily, throw things around, he's become hot tempered. And because of the impending war we are about to have with the rogues thay is closely looming, I'm aware that he had a lot of burdens in his mind right now, so he must be under a lot of distress.Hilda
Skye's POVI sat still beside Alec, but I was pretty much uncomfortable because of the irritating guy, who kept on watching me."So this is your mate?" An elderly woman, Veronica, asked, she was probably the same age as Alec's mother, but she had a more vibrant look on her. She's the luna of the Silver Moon Pack, and they were kind enough to lend us a hand at our war against the rogues."Yes," Alec curtly answered, clasping our hands together to show of our intimacy."You're extremely beautiful dear." She complimented, and my cheeks reddened as I said thank you to her."Hmph! Not that beautiful." An annoying brat chimed in. I looked deadly at Derek's direction, or rather everyone was looking at him at this point. He noticed the stares he was receiving and shifted on his seat. "What?" He asked obliviously, as if he just didn't make a snark remark. Hmph! So immature."Anyway, I've heard that she's not exactly your mate yet. I mean, you're still not over eighteen, so how come you believ
Skye's POV"One! Two! Three!" The warriors shouted all together as they started their training once again.It's been like this since the Silver Moon Pack arrived. They're training extra hard. And I don't know what else to do around here since Alec is always busy and I haven't even seen him around for two days now. I miss him, but I'm sure he has a lot on his plate right now. So I'm trying to be more understanding of him."Hey Skye! What are you doing here?" Derek asked jogging his way towards me, all topless, sweaty and gross."What with that face? Are you grossed out of me?" He asked, and I covered my nose, indirectly telling him that he smells bad, of course I'm just teasing him, he actually doesn't smell but it's fun teasing this big guy around.He smelled himself and crossed his brows at me, "I don't smell." He said plainly."Yes you do." I shook my head, running away from him and going to Keira's side."What's up with you. Why are you...ohhh." I said, amused, as I caught her watch
Skye's POV"He hurt you?" Keira asked in disbelief. I didn't know who to talk to aside from her. I never saw Alec like this. It's like he's always at his breaking point, and now, I'm afraid to face him again."You can stay with me tonight if you want." She suggested and I gladly accepted her offer."Thank you." I said."Skye, Alec has always been temperamental, but he only goes berserk when he's under a lot of stress, so I hope you can be with him and face these challenges together. After all, you are his future luna." She said, and I unconsciously rubbed the mark he gave me.She's right, we should be in this together. It was kind of my fault anyway."It's lunch time, we should go and eat with the others." She said, standing up from bed. I was skeptical about facing Alec today but I guess it wouldn't hurt to make the first move. Plus, I don't want the day t end with both of us still on bad terms...."Is that all you're eating?" Keira pointed at the food on my plate, which only consis
I'm currently wandering on the streets hoping to buy a gift for Alec. Keira lent me some money, and I'm hoping I can see something as a peace offering to my grumpy mate.I went inside a clothing store and I asked for the sales lady for some tips or recommendations. And when she heard that I was having a quarrel with my lover her smile widened into a cheeky one, and she guided me around on what seems a section of oddly looking clothes that were pretty revealing for my liking."Are these supposed to look like this?" I asked the lady sheepishly, not too fond of the idea of wearing such bold looking clothes."The fastest way to fix a lover's quarrel is to seduce your man into saying sorry to you. And what better way to seduce men than wearing a lingerie." She said grinning, moving her brows from one side to another, and my mouth formed an o shape, contemplating if I should do this.Is this how humans solve a problem? By showing some skin? "You should go try it on. I bet it fits you well
