MirabelleA small crowd of teens had gathered along the hallways of Bimmerville high to witness another drama, standing on my slim five foot five height I was almost shivering under the piercing glare of the school diva.Alicia Donovan, a strikingly gorgeous red head with an envious hourglass figure fitting tightly into the tight jean miniskirt and a drooping halter top that showed off her pink lacy bra drawing all eyes to her. Rules were non existent for her being the only pampered daughter of Hamilton high's principal and the beta of Blackwood pack.One would think I'd hold more status than her as the daughter of the current alpha of Blackwood pack, however that wasn't the case, all my life I'd always known I was an adopted child, my adopted mother didn't miss a day to make me feel that way, my adopted father Alpha William Blackwood was fairly nice to me, however there was never an emotional connection between us.The whole pack knew of my status in the Blackwood family, which was w
Mirabelle.To my relief the school day was over faster than I could think. I had the same Math class as Alicia after lunch break, and when the teacher passed around the papers for the tests we had taken, I could hear her sneer behind me when she glimpsed the perfect score on my sheets.It was no hidden fact to anyone that I was the Math genius in senior year and all through high school, but that still wasn't enough for anyone to look at me as nothing more than the worthless adopted daughter of the alpha."Out of the way runt!" I felt someone bump into me as they rushed down the set of stairs at the entrance of the school, their giggling amongst each other at successfully hitting me over didn't escape my keen ears.But my anger was quick to disperse when my eyes fell on him.Coming to a halt in my tracks my heart skipped a beat."Tony, can I get a ride?" I heard Eliot, one of his buddies ask as he ran towards Antonio's black van."Sure dude, hop in." Antonio turns towards the driver's
Mirabelle.Strawberry pink looking thin lips quirked up in an amused smirk, those wild grey eyes scanned my body from the top of my head down to my toes momentarily stopping on my chest where he quirked a brow. I instinctively felt the need to cover my body with my arms.Those sinfully alluring lips formed a full smile as the unknown but otherworldly handsome stranger began to stalk towards me.Standing at an intimidating height I was sure was over six feet, with mesmerizing ink black hair ruffled on his head looking as if he'd run his fingers through their strands, the handsome stranger who'd smacked my ass was a full package hunk."Feisty little wolf huh?" He was now a few inches of distance from me, stepping back as I inhaled his deep scent that smelled like a mixture of earth and woody pine and a masculine musk. "W-who are you?" I managed to stutter after breaking out of the momentary daze of staring at the most good looking guy my eyes had ever seen whose face I had just slapped
MirabelleIn the span of seven days, I no longer saw Roman as often as I used to. For the most part, I did good to avoid his presence, after he claimed to have me, i didn't know what he was thinking but my instincts told me to stay away from him, and thankfully, Dad, excited to have him around didn't let him out of his sight for a second as he dragged him along for pack meetings, and anything related to pack matters just to get him familiar with the responsibilities he'd have to face in the future.I couldn't believe tomorrow was the mating gala as i woke up on a Thursday morning with a strangely giddy feeling, the feeling was twisting my insides that I could barely get out of bed as I pulled up the sheets up to my nose staring at the ceiling the excitement creeping in as I remembered Antonio's face."Eeeeh!" I squealed as I flung my legs around on the bed unable to contain my excitement.The image of Antonio Edwards had me jumping out of bed and running to my closet, for the first ti
MirabelleEverything seemed to blur away and faded as my eyes remained fixated on the one person that had always made my heart flutter, the one person my heart had always desired.All my life everyone had always ostracized me, like an outcast I'd always been pushed out by the people who I called family, the one guy who had ever been nice to me. Smiled at me and made me feel like I existed, the guy with whom I thought I'd find an everlasting love bound by the goddess herself, rejected me for my nemesis.'Why me goddess, why me?'Tears blurred my vision, I could hear Penny whisper beside me."Oh Mira I'm so sorry..."Alicia gave me a smug glance, she wound her arms around Antonio's neck unabashedly kissing him in front of everyone.My heart clenched further as I saw Antonio grab her by the waist, holding her so tight while kissing her deeply, intensely. It was a mingle of tongues and perhaps due to the mate bond, they both didn't care where they were.The sight seemed to form an ice swo
MirabelleI whirled around and Penny immediately engulfed me in a tight embrace. "Are you alright?" She asked as she pulled away surveying my appearance.I was still feeling shaken by what just happened. As the cold wind hit my skin it almost felt as if it had all been a dream, Roman had been here, and I'd felt warm and secure in his presence, and then there was that other feeling..."Mira?" I broke out of my thoughts as I heard Penny's worried tone."I'm alright." "You don't look alright, would you like to go somewhere to chill?" I nodded feeling suffocated, in a single night I'd thought would change my life for the better, my hopes had been dashed right before my eyes. Penny led me away from the garden, from the corner of my eye I glimpsed the celebration hall, I could hear the sounds of celebration as youths got paired with their mates."Penny, where are you going?" Eliot rushed out of the celebration, there was excitement in his eyes as he regarded Penny with a prideful and p
Roman.Everyone says a werewolf can only wait for the moon goddess to choose their partner, someone they'll have to spend forever with. But I Roman Blackwood have chosen her, and it will only be her for the rest of my life regardless of what fate has ordained.THREE YEARS AGO.Heaven's gate elite suite, Greenwood city.I had just turned eighteen, it was a chill full moon night. Standing by the tall glass windows of the opulent suite where my eighteenth birthday was currently being celebrated by my closest friends, I watched the full moonlight, a smirk on my lips, my grey eyes holding a firm challenge.I could smell it, the sweet enticing fragrance of my fated mate, I'd been able to perceive it since dawn today when my eyes first opened in the morning."It's amazing how you have the fates of everyone figured out, playing them in the palm of your hands Selene," I muttered softly to the moon, if the moon goddess was up there, she better be hearing my words, "My fate, can only be decided
MirabelleI woke up to the sun on my face through my windows, but this time I couldn't smell the bliss in the air like I could yesterday, there was no anticipation or eagerness to be loved and accepted by my mate, there was only coldness in my heart.For the longest time I'd had one thing to hold on to, to finally be with my mate who will give me the love I'd been lacking my whole life, but when that dream had completely crashed, I had nothing to look forward to. Today was the celebration of welcoming the grand Luna's aide and the next beta into the pack house where they'll be residing from now on. After I showered for the day I pulled open my closet, my eyes stared blankly at my boring clothes, the emptiness in my heart numbed me, I couldn't feel anything anymore, neither the fear of being seen or being criticized.The grand Luna had been right about one thing... I never tried to make myself a Blackwood, I'd always just shrunk away hiding from everyone...I would no longer be that
