Using the towel to gently rub my hair, I walk out of the bathroom feeling refreshed. I approach the mirror and as I reach for my hair dryer, my heart skips, and I flinch backward noticing a figure sitting on my couch. I turn around to have a clear view of the person; it’s Austin."What the hell are you doing here?" My voice comes out as more of a squeak than I intend. My hands clench around the soft fabric of my towel, my eyes keep darting down to make sure the towel is securely covering my naked body.Austin is sitting on the couch across the room with a coffee mug in his hand. He looks at me, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly but he didn’t say a word."Hello?" I wave my hand at him "Didn’t you hear me? I asked you why you are here?" I repeat, holding onto the towel tightly.Austin still, doesn’t say a word and he just sits there looking at me with his eyes raking every inch of my body making me even more uncomfortable than I already am. "Are you gonna talk or what?" I inqui
~ BELLA’S POV"Matt, I’m telling you it’s really hard," I say through the phone. Matt and I have been on call for over ten minutes and he has been insisting that I meet him but he has no idea how difficult it is to leave the house. "I can’t just be sneaking out all the time. I have to make sure the coaster is clear and no one is watching me." I tell him as I walk and stand by the window. I look through the window to take in the view. The road is shimmering in the heat of the midday sun. The sunlit skyscrapers piercing the hot, blue sky. I look at the guards standing by the gate, there are over five of them, all shirtless, with toned, sun-kissed skin. "It’s really hard to get out of here." I say "Ohh come on, I’m sure no one is watching you right now." Matt says "The sun is shining, and everyone’s eyes are wide open Matt and the guards…" I look at them as I continue to speak "They are everywhere. I can’t sneak right now.""Okay, but what about tonight?" He asks"I don't know," I s
I roll over the bed with a sleepy moan. I am having a wonderful dream that involves two undressed men, one of them looks like Matt and the other may or may not look like Austin, I don’t want to go deep into details. The men were all over me and I just couldn’t control myself, their bodies were heatedly against mine. I could feel every part of their body on mine. I let out a sleepy groan as I rolled over and lay on my stomach. My face is directly against the bed and a pillow is on top of my head. I have been out all night with Matt and honestly, it’s quite exhausting to sneak out past midnight and come back only a few hours before sunrise. Matt won’t understand how exhausting it is so basically I can not tell him that otherwise, he’s gonna think I’m coming up with a bunch of stupid excuses which clearly I am not. After my conversation on the phone with Matt yesterday, I knew I had to fulfill my promise and meet him today otherwise my relationship with him is gonna be over and I do no
~ AUSTIN’S POV"I don’t fucking care what your job is!" I growl at Charles. I am in my office with the so-called almighty pack standing in front of my desk. They seem to be having a lot of issues lately since Jacob isn’t around and unfortunately for me, I am the only one available to fix those issues for them but apparently I can’t easily do that because they seem to have problems with everything which gets me even more frustrated because I can’t stand them and more importantly I hate saying one thing over and over again. "Lycan Austin I just want to say that I-""I don’t fucking care about what you want to say, Charles." I growl cutting him off. As I said I can’t stand them "And for heaven's sake fucking stop talking and just go do the goddam job!" Jacob is the Alpha of his pack and he has some certain responsibilities that make him in charge of some important jobs but since he’s gone for some months, I want Charles, the Beta to take care of it but he seems to be having issues with
~BELLA’S POVI arrive at the spot where Matt and I usually meet twenty minutes late. I already know he is going to be very mad at me for making him wait. Another thing about Matt is that he hates it when someone makes him wait, he’d rather make them wait for him instead. After the disturbing conversation I had with Austin the other day about sneaking out of the house. I thought about never sneaking out of the house and meeting Matt but here I am, doing the exact thing I said I won’t. I know it’s pretty dumb of me to come up here and meet Matt but I did a lot of thinking about me coming here. I came up with the conclusion that Matt and I have to take things a little low for Austin to get over his suspicions. I don’t want any of this to be caught by Austin otherwise I’m dead and I’m not ready for that. I don’t know how Matt is gonna react to this but he just has to understand. It’s the best thing to do. We need to create space between us before Austin’s suspicions grow bigger. It’s ba
I finished making Austin his morning coffee. He usually has coffee every morning after gym so I decided to make the coffee for him today. I figured if I want Austin’s suspicions to halt and get him to trust me, I have to be doing things for him which is why I decided to make coffee for him. I mean, what else can I do for an ungrateful person other than make him his regular coffee?I serve the coffee in his regular mug and I head to his study room. I know he’s there because that’s where he is every single morning. Austin has a basic daily routine that he follows like there are some kind of rules and regulations. Speaking of rules, now I see why he set rules around here, he has his own so he thinks everyone should do too. Approaching the study room, I opened the door and was welcomed with absolutely no one. I keep the coffee on the table and take a look around the room. It’s very spacious and cast with a dazzling crystal chandelier. At the center of the room is a mahogany desk and plus
"You mind if I join you miss?" I ask the lady watering the plants. She is a blonde, she is dressed in the servant's outfit; a white shirt and black skirts, and she appears to be in her late thirties. She turns to look at me with a bright smile on her face, she says "I don’t mind you joining me but I don’t think Lycan Austin will be happy when he sees you working with me." Her voice is sweet and innocent "He’s never happy so it won’t be the first time," I say"I don’t know," She shrugs, with a slight trace of concern in her voice. "I don’t want to upset him.""You don’t have to worry about that, he is always upset and even if he gets more upset, I don’t care," I say walking towards her. I seriously don’t care about anything Austin does or says. He is an asshole. I can’t believe I tried to be nice to him by making a cup of coffee for him but in return, he just acted shitty like he always does. He’s such a bitch!"Are you sure you want to help me? I don’t want to get you or me in troub
~ AUSTIN’S POVI didn’t stop running, I kept going until I was deep into the forest, my lungs burning from being deprived of oxygen. But somehow It didn’t make me feel any better, it didn’t feel the way I wanted it to, instead, it felt like nothing which got me angry because my mind was still fixed on one thing and I am just lashing out of my breath to get over with it. My wolf, Dragon is furious just as I am. I knew I had to rush out of the house otherwise Dragon would destroy everything. I barely can control my anger, but when it comes to Dragon, I completely lose control. Dragon is much more furious than I ever can be, he is in me yet he controls me. My wolf carried us farther into the woods, and I allowed myself to sink into the furthest depths of his mind. My head was still racing with what had just happened, I wanted to turn everything off for just a few moments. I couldn't handle it.Hours and hours passed, and I didn’t get any peace of mind. I was losing my mind. I thought o
