Klaus’s POV
“Klaus, have you been listening to me for the past ten minutes or have I been talking to myself?” Joseph waves his hand in front of my face, pulling me out of my recently constant distraction, Ella.
She has been occupying a big part of my mind for quite sometime now; ever since the first time I saw her, and I can’t seem to stop thinking about her. She was the first person to have that effect on me after Kate. And that was freaking the shit out of me. I didn’t want to end up having feelings for her. Falling for another woman after my mate was out of the question for me. You only get one true mate in your lifetime. One true love. If that person is gone, a part of you will go with her and nothing will ever be able to replace that part.
Yet, where the hell did the part of me that kept thinking about Ella come from? Was it just guilt that brought that part on or was it something else?
I sighed in frustration, ran my ha

Ella’s POV The first thing I felt was warmth. Warmth seeped into my whole body covering me from the inside out. It wasn’t the usual warmth that comes from being covered with a blanket. It was a warmth that promised safety and protection. My eyes were still closed, so I didn’t know the source of that amazing feeling that I have never felt before. But I didn’t want it to go away, even if it was just a dream. I kept my eyes closed and focused on my surroundings. Half my body was laying on top of someone as I felt my head rise and fall as if it was laying on someone’s chest. A hand was gently stroking my hair. My left hand was clutching a piece of fabric very tightly. For a second, I remembered the same kind of warmth I felt when Joseph touched my hand at the hospital. However, the feminine perfume I smelled right now confirmed that it wasn’t Joseph I was holding onto so tightly. It was a woman. But who was it? I had no idea. It was probably just a dream. I was never held like this befo

Ella’s POV “Ella look…” Sara started to speak, but I couldn’t let her finish. This one, she cannot convince me to accept, no matter what she says. “Even if he was the last person available to train me, it’s still gonna be a no, I’d rather give up training altogether than accept his help” I said barely controlling my anger. “Ella, he regrets everything he did and said to you, he just wants your forgiveness in anyway you can give it. I know you have your doubts about him and I can’t say that you are not right to think that way, he gave you every reason to. But, he is also the son I raised for the past twenty years after losing his mother at the age of five, and that makes me able to tell when he deeply regrets something. I am telling you the truth, please believe me” said Sara carefully. He regretted nothing. It was all a trick. How could they not see that? The fact that she raised him surprised me a little, but it didn’t convince me entirely, mothers c

Ella’s POVI was biting my nails hard as I dreaded the meeting I had with Joseph and alpha Klaus at three. My lunch sat at my dining table untouched as I did not have the appetite to eat.I watched the clock get closer to three and felt myself getting closer to a massive panic attack. I kept trying to breath in and out like Sara taught me to do whenever I felt myself losing my grip on my feelings. It wasn’t working very well. I kept trying to convince myself that I had nothing to be panicked about. It was just a meeting, and Joseph is going to be there with me the whole time. That wasn’t working very well either.A sudden sharp pain pulled me out of my anxiety attack. One of the nails I was biting so hard into was bleeding and throbbing in pain.“Dammit. Get it together Ella” I whispered to myself angrily.I got up from the sofa and went to the bathroom to splash some cold water on my face. I dried my face then pulled

Ella’s POV Joseph took one look at us; me pinned against the wall, shaking, breathing hard and trapped by alpha Klaus whose anger could be felt from a mile away, and was standing next to me in an instant. “Klaus, let her go” ordered Joseph warily. I was trapped in his eyes, I couldn’t look away from them. The hurt I saw in them made me feel guilty for saying what I said. I wasn’t expecting him to be affected that much by it. Comparing him to alpha Grey and telling him that he was worse than him was wrong. Alpha Grey was still the worst person on the planet earth. But, I wanted to hurt him so much that I had no control over what came out of my mouth. I felt like I needed to apologize to him, for the last part at least. But I couldn’t open my mouth. He kept staring at me for a few seconds before turning around and going back to where he was standing before, near the window. He gave us his back, but I could still see how tense he was from his rigid form. “Are you ok, Ella?” asked Jos

Klaus’s POV “Is there something else we need to talk about? I need to go punch the shit out of something” I said in irritation to Joseph after Ella left us alone in his office. My blood was still boiling from everything Ella said to me before Joseph entered the office. For someone who is scared shitless at the sight of me, she sure had a hell of a lot of nerves to speak that boldly to me without fearing the consequences. While I saw the fear in her eyes when I pinned her against the wall, the anger in them was far greater. I would never let anyone speak to me the way she just spoke to me without punishing them severely. No one even dares to speak to me in that way. Hell, I wanted to punish her so badly but barely held myself. Reminding myself that she has been through hell. Also, most of what she said was completely true and I deserved most of it. But for her to say I was worse than that bastard Grey tipped me off the edge. I wanted to show her just how diffe

Ella’s POV My mind was still stuck in that confrontation I had with the alpha, while waiting for my instructor to arrive. What the hell was I thinking to speak to him that way? Never have I imagined saying those things to him like that. Especially the last part. He did not deserve that last part. He wasn’t worse than alpha Grey. Not yet. I contemplated going to him and apologizing for the way I spoke. I was so out of line. I was still surprised that he just let me go without any sort of discipline. I made up my mind. As much as I wanted to never see him again, I needed to apologize. Otherwise, I will keep eating myself up every time I think about him. As soon as my practice is over, I will go to his office, and if I didn’t find him, I will go to his room. I wanted this over with tonight or I will never be able to sleep from the guilt I felt. Suddenly, the door opens, pulling me out of my deep thoughts about the alpha. I was standing in the middle of the room when the door opened. W

Ella’s POVI woke up in the middle of the night and put my hand over my mouth to keep myself from screaming in terror. I was having a nightmare as usual.This time it was the mysterious guy who tried to kill me at the old pack. He was haunting my dreams every night now.I leaned over the bed and drank some water from the cup on the night stand.I sighed in frustration. Sleep was long gone now for me. I was so tired but I know I’ll never be able to go back to sleep now.It had been a long emotionally difficult day. My earlier panic attack took a lot of strength from me.Sara came to check on me half an hour after I returned to my room. Apparently alpha Klaus told her what happened in the training room and asked her to check on me. We sat together until dinner. I told her about everything that happened in Joseph’s office and then after with the training instructor. She listened to everything I said attentively.She was

Ella’s POV Jake says curiously “I didn’t know you had a guardian” “I didn’t. Linda just started today. She and Stephanie will be taking shifts” I said while taking the seat opposite from him. “Is everything ok?” he asks in concern. I exchange looks with Linda. Should I tell him? Well, since we are going to see each other almost everyday, he kinda deserves an explanation. “Don’t worry it’s just a precaution. I was attacked by someone at my old pack, and we haven’t been able to identify him yet” I said nonchalantly, trying not to make a deal out of it so they don’t catch how much it actually terrifies me. He paused for a second to process what I said “Well, you don’t have to worry while I’m here, I can take whatever comes through that door” I heard Linda snort from the sofa. Jake turns around slowly and looks at her. “Something funny?” he asks with raised eyebrows. “You don’t need to protect her while I’m here” she answered in a cocky tone. “That’s what I’m saying. You don’t ne
