Geneva was boiling with rage at the audacity of Zion to think he can know everything about her. How dare he act like there were more than enemies. She was pacing the room like a wild animal and that’s because she was so angry and there was no one around for her to let out her anger.“I need to put him in his place. Who does he think he is to think he should be aware of what’s happening to me?” She fumed“You’re overreacting. You better calm down before you do something that you’ll regret later.” Violet warns“Why am I the one in the wrong and not him? You should be taking my side all the time” “Not when you are be unreasonable like this. Zion is our mate. He was asking because he cares”“So now he cares, after killing our entire pack” she spat“Now, that’s not fair”“So it’s fair that he killed our family? It’s fair that we are mated to him?”“That’s not what I meant. Give him a chance Geneva”“Never” she roared before storming out of the room again“Where are you going?” Violet pani

She went in search of Elena in the pack clinic and was keeping her company “I’m not trying to be rude or anything but why are you here?” Elena questioned Geneva who had not moved an inch from the chair she was Sitting in since she arrived one hour ago“I told you before. I missed your company” Geneva muttered not looking up from the phone she was looking at “The way you’ve been attached to your phone since you arrived says otherwise” Elena mused and Geneva finally looked up from her phone “Really? I was trying to not distract you in case you had a lot of work. After all, I showed up uninvited”“That’s not true.

The Alpha’s War Prize: Hearts at War (Book 1) 28: letting go
GENEVA’s POVAll eyes snapped to me at the seer’s words but it wasn’t the mark that had bothered me. It was what she said earlier. I was keeping my pack from going on and finding peace after their death.I thought getting revenge on them and not being with my mate would make them feel justified but it was creating more damage than good.“I was holding them back. I’m so selfish. I didn’t even think of them” I whispered brokenly“Genny, don’t say that. Any daughter or child whose family were killed would do the same. If you didn’t, it would have been suspicious. But now, it’s time to let go and be happy. You deserve it” Emily spoke from where she was standing opposite me beside Zion who I’ve yet to face “Emily is right. Now that you know this, you can finally be happy. Don’t hold back anymore and don’t rob yourself of the happiness that is meant for you” Astrid added“I’ll try” I whispered because that’s all I could promise. I know she said my family wants me to be happy but it wouldn’

It was choking and overwhelming with just the two of us in the room and the tense silence was making everything so much worse.After the emotional draining talk with the girls, I made them call Zion so we could talk but the sight of him killed all the words in my throatI was struggling to come up with what to say and I couldn’t. My head was blank and I had no idea how to begin “You called for me?” He asked me, solving the problem of what would I say“No. Stay there” I practically shouted when he began moving inside the doorI was already going crazy with him on the other end of the room so I knew I wouldn’t be able to think if I allowed him to come further. “You know, I never thought there would be a day when I would willingly want to be in the same room as you but life’s unpredictable and that’s the most infuriating thing about it all. I hate that it’s so uncertain” I suck in a breathe desperate to get a hold of myself “Did I do something?” There was a edge to his voice but ther
The Alpha’s War Prize: Hearts at War (Book 1) 30. Out of control
I was startled awake by something but I didn’t know what. I laid in my bed, now in my room and not sure how I got here.Shame flooded my stomach remembering how I passed out after Zion bit me. I’m such a wuss. I wished it was a dream but the tingling sensation on my neck, in the space where my neck met my collar bone.I could feel the bond in place and it felt alive. I felt alive and like I finally belonged somewhere. I was no longer an outsider. I have a new family now. I could feel a gentle push that could be likened to a knock. Someone from the pack was trying to talk to me so I opened the link“Are you awake Luna?” Lily teased. “Regrettably So” I winced as I was attacked with an onslaught on headache “It’s normal, the headache will fade within a few hours” She said as if she could see the pain in my face“How did I get to my room? Thought I would still be in the pack clinic” my mouth opened wide and a yawn escaped from my lips making my mouth water “Who else? As if Zion would
The Alpha’s War Prize: Hearts at War (Book 1) 31: I’m a coward
I have been trying to avoid Zion and I think he noticed and decided to stay away from me but now I hate it. I hate not being able to see his face anymore. I hate that my heart skips a beat when I smell him around the corner and I hate that I’m on the verge of screaming when the scent suddenly disappears as if it was never there.“Earth to Geneva” Elena snapped her fingers in front of my face, bringing me out of my thoughts “You’ve been lost in thoughts since we got here. Are you sure you’re okay?” Lily asked with concern “Sorry. We promised to hang out today but I’m just so lost in my head” I mumbled embarrassed that I couldn’t get my shit together“Tell me, what’s going on in that head of yours. Is it a certain Alpha?” She teased “Maybe. I don’t know” I could feel his presence in my head, like he was wrapped around me like a blanket. It felt like we were one. The feeling is euphoric but alarming at the same time “I totally understand. It takes time to get used to someone lurking
The Alpha’s War Prize: Hearts at War (Book 1) 32: Training and sparks
It was a full moon today and just like every other full moon, I missed my pack dearly. I tried not to think of how I was living and mated with the same person who took them from meCurrently, I was laying on the grass near the stream and staring at the large expanse of stars in the skies. It was so beautiful and the moon shone so bright “The moon shines just like your eyes princess” Dad would tell me every full moon whenever we looked at them. I knew he was only saying it to make me feel better about not attending the run and it always worked Today however, there was no run and there was no one to make me feel better so I was hiding. Unlike my previous pack, the full moon meant nothing to the Valis pack. To them, it was just another day. They didn’t take relish in their heightened senses and just went about their daily activities like any other day “There’s no pack run or hunt today?” I remember asking Lily this morning when I saw how calm everyone was “What pack run?” She asked
