"He was the only child of his parents. His mother, having had complications, nearly died while giving birth to him. His father, not willing to risk loosing his mate, did not allow her to have any more children after that. Luckily for the couple their child was a boy. A perfect future Alpha.Roderick and Natalie loved their son to pieces. And they took every second of the day to show him that. They were such a perfect little family.But Damon was even more attached to his father which is why that day, his dad went out hunting with some of his colleagues, he didn't want to let him go.Call me crazy but I think the boy felt it. He knew he would never get to see his dad again. The poor thing cried the whole night. His father's Beta came the following morning, dirty and bloody, with the terrible news that the Alpha had been killed. Damon took the news hard, though young, he understood very well what death meant. But the person who suffered the worst blow was his mom. She lost it, literally
I turned to look at him with a probably stupid expression on my face.What does he mean by that?"Huh?"He rolled his eyes and sighed.He has nice eyes ...Shut up."My mother obviously thinks I'm being unreasonable, so I'll try and be reasonable. Maybe you have some hidden skill or talent, sincerely, I highly doubt that. But I'll give you a chance, prove me wrong. Feel free to show me all you got. We're out in an open field ... " He gestured towards the wide plain of field.Oh no.This was worse than dying. He wants to ...Train.You lazy idiot.Hey!I didn't really know how to respond to his statement so I went with the most ladylike and appropriate response I could muster."Huh?" I was still trying to take everything in. How'd he go from kicking me out to this?He narrowed his eyes at me and shook his head.He looked up to the sky for a minute before turning back to look at me."How many miles can you do?""Miles?""Yes, how many can you run? Top speed, no break?"He said it like h
My eyes. They were glowing. And they were gold. I mean, in the reflection in the water they seemed to gleam yellow like the sun, but I'd like to believe it was golden. I blinked once. I blinked twice. Nope, still there. My wolf. She actually came out. *** I successfully got back like two hours later since I didn't really know where I was Okay, two hours may be an exaggeration but I was suddenly so tired it felt like forever. Iliterally felt drained. I even tripped and fell and no doubt opened up the cut on my forehead again. One minute I'm so coordinated and the next I'm just a tripping mess. Guess it's just me again. When I entered the house I heard arguing voices coming from Latifah's room. Which was probably my fault. I should have just done the wise thing and gone to my room. But of course I didn't. I never do. At this point, I don't even think that you're capable. I held the door knob and entered Latifah's room. "Damon listen to me wh-" The voices stopped and the
I came up out of the water feeling refreshed. The cool water soothing my heated skin.I wiped my face with my hand and then opened my eyes. Wait.I wiped my face?With my hands?I have hands again!I looked down. Which didn't really do much since ninety percent of my body was underwater, but I could still make out my swimming naked figure under the water. Shit.I had already shifted back.Really?Now?????You choose now to leave????I don't see any better time.I'm naked for Pete's sake!Your problem not mine.Our problem.Our friggin problem!could practically hear her laughing in my head. What was this, some sort of practical joke or something?You need to start getting comfortable in your own skin, you're a werewolf, occasions will rise.Definitely not like this!I looked around desperately looking for an answer.My clothes.Which are ripped and shredded to pieces a few kilometers from this place.There is no way I can run back naked. There is no way I'm doing that.I'll be in a me
My eyes were closed but I could feel the light shining on my face.I was feeling hot yet I could feel a very cool breeze blowing at me as well.There was something warm clasped around my hand.stirred a bit and the warm feeling left my hand.I knew I had been sleeping for a while now but I couldn't help but still feel so super sleepy even though I was tired of sleeping, if that made any sense.With much effort I peeled my eyes open.The light that attacked my sight gave me an instant headache.I shut my eyes again and pressed my fingers to my temples hard in order to suppress the ache. It didn't really do much."You deserve that."I paused.I opened my eyes again just a fraction and looked around.I was in my room.Buried under a heap of blankets.No wonder I was feeling hot.When did I get here?My eyes landed on Damon who was standing by my door with his arms crossed over his chest.I opened my eyes and looked fully at him now."Huh?""Dont you 'huh' me. What the hell were you doing
If I thought the house was lonely and sad before, it was nothing compared to this.Words simply cannot describe the feeling.Pain is actually hanging in the air.And no one knows about it.Only the five of us.Damon, Latifah, Marcus, Mildred the nurse who was hired to take care of Anastasia and I.Damon refused to declare her dead, but she was.Gone.Latifah refused to eat.Damon shut everyone out even more than before.He wouldn't even come out of his room.He hasn't for the past eight days.As for me, I guess I was just stuck in Zombie mode after I was all cried out. It was all just too much to actually handle."Adriane.""Yeah?" I had just walked into Latifah's room where she lay on her bed.She had a small smile on her face but it was very clear that she was forcing it.Isn't it strange how a person can age twenty years in just two weeks?She had grown so lean since, she could hardly eat anything.She had lost so much, and now Anastasia was gone too.Poor girl.She couldn't surviv
I couldn't stand it anymore.My knees buckled and I fell to the ground.I shut my eyes, pressed my palms to my ears and earnestly tried to block him out.But his eyes still burned into my mind.Tears were pounding at my eyelids but I didn't want to let them out.I didn't want to show him I was weak.But I couldn't.And the tears came streaming down.I just couldn't take it anymore.Then I heard him laughing.The b*stard.He was enjoying this.Then he crouched down and whispered in my ear in a very low dangerous tone."I didn't lose my parents, they were taken from me. Now do you feel my hurt?"Then he ripped the door open and stormed out.And yes, he actually ripped the door.*****To hell with this.To hell with him.I'm done crying.I'm not gonna sit here and do nothing.Allow him to treat me like this.I could feel myself boiling and something else seeping into my conscious, I was getting livid.Damon was standing out on the lawn with Marcus and they seemed to be discussing somethi
"Adriane wait."But I didn't.I was done.For good.Forever.I dashed into the house even though I knew he wasn't following me.I was feeling all sorts of nothing right now, intense nothing, vague nothing, deep and haunting nothing.It was an eerie feeling really.The moment I barged in I saw Latifah.She was staring at me with wide teary eyes.She didn't need to say anything.I knew she had heard everything.I'm so sorry dear.Her eyes seemed to tell me.I didn't need or want any pity right now. But she wasn't to blame here, it's not her fault and she's been kind to me.So I just gave her a small but forced smile and walked past her and then went to the kitchen. I heard her footsteps retreat and leave the house, most likely to join Damon on the lawn.I could still feel him, he hadn't left. He still stood in that same spot I left him in.I pushed him out of my head.I rummaged through the drawers till I found what I was looking for.After about five minutes I found it.I grabbed it an
