Adrien.
Where the hell had she been? I was going to kill her as soon as I found her.
I was well aware that it was a lie on my part, I would never lay a finger on Estelle but I couldn't help feeling annoyed and frustrated as the days went by and not finding traces of Elle.
Sure, it had been my mistake to teach her to leave and erase her trace. When we were sixteen, I thought it would be very clever of me to teach her how to hide from werewolves. By that time, I was thinking that Cody was freaking out day after day and that he might become obsessed with Estelle. The frustration of not being able to communicate with his wolf began to pay off with the friend he grew up with.
So I showed her, very carefully, how to leave without leaving a trace. I also knew that she had money at her disposal as if unconsciously she was always ready to flee. I knew that her childhood was spent
Wake up.Who's speaking?Wake up, Estelle!There was nothing I could do but obey that insistent voice in my head. I opened my eyes suddenly, feeling a headache that left me disoriented for a few moments. I closed them again because of the light, hissing under my breath. Why did my whole body ache?Someone was hugging me. Who was it? Why was he hugging me so tightly and desperately? He was crying? Why would anyone cry so hard over me?Something was happening.Get up, girl.I heard that voice again, although I had no idea where it was coming from. I blinked a few times, before taking in what was happening."Adrien? What's the matter?" I asked with concern.How did I know it was him? Easy enough. I can recognize his presence anywhere and anytime. It was inevitable for me to recognize hi
What's going on?Relax, I'll take care of it.I veered around in Adrien's arms, even though it caused me pain. I heard him hiss when I butted him right in the jaw. He didn't let go of me, which made me groan under my breath. I didn't want to fight him but I would if it guaranteed my freedom.If he didn't let go of me, I was going to send him to the ground."Stop," the Alpha ordered again, making me stop instantly.Not out of respect, but because he surprised me that he suddenly spoke. Usually, the Alpha was ignorant of everything he did. Although after all, we were talking about his son. Would he believe that I would hurt him? I wouldn't. It was Adrien we were talking about."We don't want to hurt you," he said apologetically, still not letting go."Then why don't you let me go, and we talk like normal people?" I asked wryly
Neither of us spoke for a long time. Adrien amused himself playing with my brown hair, taking it between his fingers and stroking me. He didn't try to stop my crying, and he didn't complain for a second. He just stayed by my side.He was cute.Now that I knew about my past, I understood that that little whispering voice was my wolf trying to guide me on the path. When she took control of my body, we were one. I could see those memories that she was in charge of repressing so as not to harm me. I knew everything.She also explained how I learned that the new teacher was a witch. Among sorcerers, the hierarchy worked differently. As I saw the image of my mother, a beautiful woman with curly chocolate-colored hair and the bluest eyes I had ever seen.The last name and the blood was the only thing that mattered between witches. I was not a witch. I had no powers. Now that my wolf had
"What the fuck were you thinking?" Adrien demanded just as everyone left the place quite confusedThe wolves kept giving me curious looks. Of course, it wasn't easy to process the fact that the human who wasn't supposed to be in the pack in the first place was now the one responsible for a deal with the vampires. They are having a hard time understanding it."No," he roared. "You put yourself in danger, again. Did you lose your mind? You found out that you are a wolf and that is great, bunny, but you are not immortal.""I never thought it was.""Well, that's not what you show."He was as serious as ever in his life. I didn't like him to blame me, especially because thanks to me the conflict had been resolved without casualties. No one had died thanks to me and I expected at least a little recognition, not screams and complaints."I did what I had to do," I retorted, helping a girl up. She had fallen with the blankets which she
"Take your hands off her," ordered the stern voice of my mate and best friend.The stranger seemed to notice where we were. He pulled away slightly, allowing me to look into his beautiful honey-colored eyes. His features were soft, his nose was small and upturned, he had a tender look as if he was seeing the most beautiful thing in the whole universe.Why was he refusing to let me go and how could he ignore Adrien with such confidence?The stranger looked only at me, ignoring everyone else. Including Adrien. That didn't make him happy. He ended up approaching with a deadly serious face."Didn't you hear me?" he insisted."I heard you, but I don't care what you say," he replied without turning to see him.He was brave, I had to accept that.I noticed Adrien's impatient gesture, so I decided to intervene. The stranger was a st
"Come with me. Don't talk if you don't have to and please don't let Adrien drive you crazy," I implored, staring into his eyes.We were in the pack after spending the entire afternoon talking in Maggie's office. Talking to Gabriel about everything and nothing was very liberating, as if I needed it all my life. Liberating, unique and magical. We fit right in like we've never parted.My wolf was happy, I could hear her ask my twin some questions, not caring if she wasn't supposed to be able to intervene so much. The vampires were still looking for me despite the agreement. They wouldn't rest until they made me pay in blood even if I didn't know why. Yes, they had had an affair with my parents, but it was hard for me to believe that for that alone they should be looking for me for more than ten years."It mustn't be that bad," he replied. He had an easy smile and a pleasant character, but when he got angry ...
Anyone, any normal human being, would take his pants off seeing a huge black wolf snarling. His big fangs, his fierce gaze, and everything about him screamed danger. His fur was shining, reminding me of all the times I ran my hand through him. He just started to transform of his own free will. I knew he was soft and mat, perfect for warmth and comfort.Although he also had large and dangerous fangs, perfect for taking down his enemies in seconds.And there I was, with a raised eyebrow in his direction and my arms crossed. I looked at him with anger and annoyance, without being afraid of him at all.The beast was terrifying, yes. But he was still my best friend, my mate, my life partner. He would never hurt me.That was why I could face it without hesitation. Adrien could be many things, but he would never do something to hurt me. Not even if he was a giant wolf. I was so used to s
Adrien was staring at me while Gabriel still clung to my body. My brother adored my wolf, although they had never had direct contact before. Gabriel also had a wolf, but we hadn't talked yet. As far as I understood, he was embarrassed to talk to anyone other than Gabriel. And I had no idea how he knew about it, but there it was.Whenever my wolf intervened, for some strange reason, my body was exhausted and without strength."Hey," I murmured wearily.Gabriel released me, gently laying me on the bed. He treated me like I was glass after the words of my wolf. He would become an unbearable controller if I did not make it clear whether human or not, I could kick his ass.He was my brother and I adored him but that didn't stop me from wanting to kick his ass sometime."Hi, Ellie. Does your arm hurt?"I lowered my gaze to where my wound should
