I barely see Zion these days since the dungeon. He was avoiding me and it's not like I could blame him. I turned the other way the moment I see him and he had gotten the message except now I was the one slowly going crazy. I needed him and now I felt like a crack addict which was why I am on my way to his office right now. Some people tried to say hi to me but I paid them no attention. I had one goal in mind and that was my only focus. My heart was beating faster as Zion’s office came into focus. I was a little disoriented and the mate bond was choking me up. I knew it would probably be worse for Zion but he won't try to make me uncomfortable so he'll try to bear it alone.I push the door open, almost ripping it from its hinges. Zion was alone and he sat up with my entrance, a hitched brow and a ghost smirk on that annoying handsome face.He pushed his chair back and watched me approach him with fury in my eyes.I straddle his lap and his hands went around my waist instinctively. My
I wake up to the sound of knocking on my door. My eyes fly to the other end of the bed to find it empty. Zion had carried me back to my room and we had sex again, maybe multiple times before we fell asleep together. I looked outside the window to find it a little dark and checked the time to see it was 5 am. The room still reeked of sex so I opened the windows first, even though it would be of little help. My body ached but I guess even a werewolf had body aches after a night of rough sex from an Alpha.The knocks came again, startling me a little this time because I managed to forget why I was up in the first place. I walk to the door and pull it open, surprised to see Elaine's little frame blocking the entrance. His nose wrinkled and he looked past me into my room before looking up at me.“What's that smell Genva?” My cheeks flame up in embarrassment at his question. Of course, he could smell the sex even though he was too little to understand what it was.“Some bad food. I forgot
My heart was thumping in my chest while I waited for Zion in front of the pack house. It was time for him to leave on his one day trip.While I was eager for him to go so I could go back to that forest and check it out, I also started missing him badly. He was in his office going over some last minute plans with Jamie and Isaac. We argued earlier for him to take more men than the two he was travelling with but he was so persistent on being stubborn. He claimed he was strong enough to protect himself and was only taking the two guards because Jamie and Isaac had insisted which I was also grateful for. “I told you not to wait outside” I turn to see Zion walking towards me with Jamie, Isaac and two other warriors. The ones who would be joining him on the trip.“Are you ready to leave now?” My voice came out shaky, the opposite of what I wanted. He looked towards the guys with him and gave a silent command to them. They gave me a curt nod before leaving the lounge so it was just me and
I stood in my bathroom with the vial in my hand and considered the best option to use it. The shower was out but the bucket and the tub were two options and I was struggling to pick one. ‘I think the tub is better. You should dip yourself in it so the potion soaks into your skin. I think it's more practical.’ Violet chipped in sensing my confusion“I totally agree with you” I moved towards the tub to empty the vial into it and watched as it mixed with the water. I removed my robe, tossed it to the floor and stepped into the tub. There was nothing magical like I expected and I rolled my eyes at my childish expectation. I soaked in the tub for about twenty minutes, enough for the sky to darken more to my satisfaction before I threw on some new clothes that would not carry my scent as well. I opened my door quietly and peeped into the hallway to check for any lingering wolves before stepping out when I sensed none. I quickly made my way through the hallway and outside the pack house.
I was raging mad as I marched to my room. Tears of frustration threatened to escape my eyes but I held them back. I won't allow Zion to make me cry. My eyes zero in on a note pasted on my door with tape. I ripped the note and opened it to see what was in it. The note was written in dried blood.Traitor. You mated with the enemy. You deserve to be killed.I dropped the note on the floor and flew to the other side of the door. My body trembled with terror. My heart is racing a million miles per minute. Heavy footsteps run towards me and I didn't have to look up to know it was Zion. He ripped me off the floor and tugged me to his chest which I went willingly.One of his hands found my nape and the other went around my waist, holding me tight to his chest. His heart was also beating fast and I tear up when I realized he was afraid for me.“What is it, sweetheart? Are you hurt? Did something happen? Tell me” His voice was urgent and they trembled a little but he wasn't letting me go.I
I snuggled deeper into the familiar embrace of Zion and I relished the comfort he brought me as his hands rubbed down my back while holding me close protectively like he was scared to lose me. I know he's awake and likewise but we make no effort to move or even say anything. We just enjoy the quiet morning, listening to the annoying birds on my windows who had made it their morning task to annoy the hell out of me.I don't know how long we lay there until I decide to take a big bite of the skin above his nipples. He was inviting, the wall he laid naked on my bed with our legs tangled against the sheets. He was on his back and I was laying on top of him with the sheets riding low on our bodies only covering about an inch of my butt.“How are you feeling?” Zion’s thick morning baritone made me shiver as tingles wrap around my core but my sore muscles are a great reminder that I can't do any more extra activities if I want to walk straight today.“Fine, I guess. I'm still mad at you so
I was a little taken aback by Lily’s question and it had me thinking of so many reasons at once. She noticed my discomfort and scooted closer, maybe to provide comfort.“I haven’t shifted since that night and I even haven’t thought about shifting before. Maybe my mind has accepted or related my shifting to my trauma and moved it to the back of my mind” It was the first time I was talking about shifting. I couldn’t even remember the colour of my wolf anymore. It was like she didn’t even exist and Violet has been so patient with me, not even voicing out that she needed to be let free. “You shouldn’t stay for too long without shifting and it’s been over six months since you came here, that is too long even for your wolf. She may not want you to feel bad so she’ll keep her feeling for you but I’m sure she is restless and not being out for so long is affecting her much harder than she lets on”Lily was right and it made me feel horrible for neglecting my wolf and not thinking about her.
I made my way towards the back of the pack house where Zion said he would be waiting. From what I've gathered, the back of the pack house led to a part of the forest that wasn't overcrowded with trees and had just the perfect amount of space for a wolf to run freely. I could feel the butterflies in my stomach dancing but that didn't take away the huge smile on my face. My hands kept fiddling with the hem of my top as anticipation for what was to come built up. I rounded the corner and saw Zion leaning against a tree at the entrance of the forest, phone in his hand as he discussed something heatedly with the other person on the line. I watched as he ran his hands through his unruly curls while he listened to what was being said. He saw me and held out his hands, beckoning me to come closer. I picked up my pace and made my way towards him.“I think we have to do something about it before it gets out of hand” Zion said to the person while keeping his eyes on me.As soon as I was wit
