I woke up in the middle of the night unable to fall asleep again.Great.+I was just thinking as usual.I couldn't help but feel that Sarah was a bit mad at me, mad at me for letting go. All this time with her and I never realised what a grudge she still held against Damon.I must be very unobservant.Hm.But then again, maybe our emotions were just all over the place yesterday.And the fact that she's literally still mourning her son. I had to try and understand where she was coming from. And I hoped she would try and see things from my point of view as well. I wasn't just gonna up and leave.I-, we, were going to try and make things right. As much as we can.By this time, my train of thought had already led me to the kitchen looking for something to eat.Well I can't sleep, might as well make myself busy.I took pretzel from the fridge and warmed it up shortly in the microwave while I considered either drinking tea or coffee. I wanted hot chocolate but we were out... since I drank i
"What?" I asked simply because it felt like the command came out of nowhere.I shift often now, on my own, so the actual shifting isn't a problem anymore unlike before. It just caught me by surprise.+"I said shift." He repeated looking me straight in the eye. He'd seen my wolf form many times before, but he said he couldn't get enough looks at her. She was so 'absolutely stunning', in his words.As if that didn't inflate her already large head, he just couldn't keep his eyes off her,well, us, and his wolf was another matter all together.I could almost feel his excitement from within Damon. Actually, it was my own wolf that I couldn't really feel today, and she was being quite silent.Hm, who knew that one day she'd actually listen to me and shut up?He stood up from where we had been sitting and was already removing his shirt and stepping out of his pants.I turned away just in time before he removed his boxers. Yes I'd seen him naked before but that didn't stop me from getting flus
As soon as we got home Damon left again almost immediately.He left without saying a word, he just escorted me back and took his keys and left.I assumed he was going on a run again because he didn't even bother to change his shorts, but then again, he did go with his car...+Maybe he's going far?I sat at the kitchen counter, eating virtually all the fruits I could find. At the back of my mind I had decided that I should start eating healthy for some reason.Call me paranoid but I didn't feel like taking my chances this time.I wanted to make better choices.So I was in the middle of my second pack of chocolate covered strawberries when the door opened.-Me saying I want to make better choices, doesn't mean that I'm actually good at making them-Mavis walked in with Sarah closely behind her and they had their hands full with shopping bags that were crying to be recycled.No, honestly, the bags literally had 'Recycle me' written on them in green.They had obviously gone grocery shoppi
The sun was literally at its peak in the sky, tormenting us with it's harsh rays.+ Damon decided to drive us instead of walking to the pack house. The car he brought I had not seen before, he just pulled up out of nowhere. I remember going into the garage one day with him to see his small collection of cars. I'd seen them all, and this one wasn't part. It was an underground garage with an opening for the cars at the back of the house near the garden shed. We entered through the far end of the foyer, a door that had a couple of steps leading downstairs, but not as far down as where the underground cells are located. I guess that's what contributed to the lack of stuffy dungeon air in this place. That and the fact that this place was actually nice and almost cosy looking. These stairs even had a rail guiding them down. He flicked a light on at the end of the staircase and I watched as small blue and white balls of light lit up one by one along the edges of the room. As they came o
And more often than not, she makes sure that the pack knows that the kind gestures are all backed by the Alpha. Maybe she's the reason why they never turned against him. All they think is that he's not really a social person but a good man at heart. Which in the end may very well be true, and if given the chance, can be more social than we thought."He apologised to me, for what I'm not entirely sure but he said he was sorry, and that he needed to make things right. Starting with me." I smiled. Even though I had told him that Sarah would be the best start, he probably thought about it and realised Latifah was.His mother. And he was right. She did deserve it. And the smile on her face right now is so worth it.+I could literally see all her love for him in her eyes, she was tearing up with a smile on her lips, happy that her son came back to her.From the corner of my eye I saw Sarah approaching the house with another elderly lady laughing and shaking her head. They hadn't seen us."I
She was still staring him down, in a public show of disrespect and he wasn't having any it.He let out a low but very powerful growl that I almost felt in my bones. He hadn't even opened his mouth to let the growl out, it just came from within him, but it was felt loud and clear.I guess I wasn't the only one, as I saw everyone at the table bow their heads down.Everyone was in submission.Except the person it was originally intended for.Sarah.Headstrong as she was, she managed to keep eye contact, stand her ground and continue her glaring.Sss...In that moment, I saw Damon's features change immediately. His face fell slack and he looked stunned for a moment.Sarah on the other hand wasn't done yet."She is an Alpha and she deserves that respect to be titled an Alpha Female." She spat at him.What? Why was this such a big deal for her? She was venting out her anger on the wrong issues.This seemed to snap Damon out of his momentary shock and he growled at her again, this time with
I contemplated going back in to yell them that I was going for a run but then I decided against it. It would only just defeat the purpose of me not wanting to back in there right now. Besides, should I step in there right now, I don't think they'd let me leave at once without pelting me with questions first. I decided to just mind link Damon, in case he'd get worried. Now I'd mind linked a number of times, but usually when the person was standing right beside me. Or I could at least see the person. But now he was in a building with loads of people several meters away from me. Eh. I'll give it a shot. I tried to focus on him. Going for a run. Don't wait up. I waited a couple seconds. I didn't get a response. Hmm, maybe he's too far? Or maybe it'll take a while for the message to reach him? Or what if my message is still in my head, do I have to press send or something? What? There's no send in my head. But I'll do it anyway. Send. As if that actually makes sense. I rolled
I stopped walking. He'd let go of my hand and stood slightly to the side so as not to block my view. As if he even could. I'd been to this backyard a number of times, and in my opinion, the term 'backyard' didn't give this place justice. It was really large for one and wasn't fenced, so it looked like it had enough space to build another mansion. The grass was low cut here, almost always, there was a wooden and glass shed at the far end and a giant pool right in the centre. With a cute little summer hut a little behind the pool. The pool was always covered, therefore never actually used, so anytime I was out here, I'd sit on the lounging chairs and relax. But today, it was uncovered. And practically glowing. The first thing that caught my eyes, as usual, were the lights. Blue and green, coming from inside the pool, making it appear like some glowing elixir, ready to grant me three wishes. Next were the yellow and white floor lights that lined the edges of the pool, all around
