A Forbidden Bond A Deadly Kiss
What is Ashton doing? He really can not be saying these things to me. This was one of the reasons I stayed away from him when I broke it off with him. I knew he was not going to give up; that he’d keep trying. I really thought the week apart would do some good but that is clearly not the case. Today is literally the day that he is to get married to my sister and he has brought me into a room and has me alone with him. I should not even be in here.“Ashton, I’m sorry but I have to leave.” “Leave? You’re not going to stay for the wedding?” He asked me, and I sighed loudly.“I didn’t say that. I’m not leaving the wedding, but I am definitely leaving this room,” I told him confidently as I began to walk toward the exit but he held me. “Please, Lara. I’m pouring my heart to you and you don't even want to give me a chance.”“We are way past this, Ashton! I chose Zayn, not you!” I raised my voice and a look of hurt crossed his face. “Please don’t ruin today for Zoe, I beg you. Please…”“

Looking at Zoe as I recover from the slap breaks my heart. She has never hit me before, so her doing that now has my mind spinning. “Zoe,” I say her name and my voice breaks.“Lara, you freaking have Zayn! Why can’t you just let me have Ashton?!”“I’m not holding up Ashton. He’s the one that keeps chasing me,” I argue as I breathe heavily. I can feel the adrenaline running through my veins. “But you’re not running, are you? You’re not running, you’re letting him catch you each and every time because you like this game. You like having the attention of two powerful guys.” Zoe was no longer sobbing but tears were still falling from her eyes.“I’m sorry,” I give up. There is no use in arguing with her when even I don’t understand my feelings. I am so freaking conflicted about all this. I am starting to wish that I had never gone to that party with Tessa. If I had not gone then I wouldn’t have met Ashton. And it is most likely that if I had not met Ashton, I wouldn’t have met Zayn. It’s

Tessa and I head to the room where I met Ashton when I first came here but when we reach there, we don’t see anyone. The room is literally empty. Everyone must be at the ceremony already.“Where could he be?” Tessa asks me, and I don't reply to her. I simply lead her out of the room and we check the next room. As we get closer to it, we begin to hear people arguing. I open the door and Tessa follows behind me closely. The room is not as big as the other ones in the building. It looks like a conference room. There are chairs tucked in front of a long fancy table.In one of the chairs, we see Ashton dressed up in a tux, looking ready for the wedding. He has his head bowed down in his hand and looks like he has been crying. “You have to be freaking kidding me!” I hear Zoe and I see her in the room for the first time. She turns to me and says, “Get him out there, Lara!” “What’s going on?” Tessa asks the question that was at the tip of my tongue. She walks closer to Zoe and tries to get

Instead of telling Zayn about the kiss, I avoid it and talk about how beautiful the wedding was. Bunny encourages me to tell them more as she prepares lunch for us in the penthouse. She is a great cook and the aroma coming from the kitchen right now is so mesmerizing.“It was such a lovely wedding! Everyone was there, almost a thousand people!” I explain, and Zayn sits across from me on the dining room table not far from the kitchen. Bunny can hear and participate in conversation as she cooks.“Did you see talk to Ashton?” Zayn takes a sip of water after he asks me. He maintains eye contact with me as he does so and I breathe out a shaky smile as my heart thumps in my chest.“Uh, yeah. We talked and then Zoe made me promise to cut all ties with him.” Zayn chuckles and then places the glass of water back on the table. “Why would she do that?”“Probably cos Ashton is still in love with Lara!” I hear Bunny’s voice from the kitchen and Zayn waits for me to confirm or deny it. “Well?” He

It has been two years since Hamish came back to his people. Bunny cried so much that she couldn’t anymore. She was beyond happy, and I saw a look on Zayn’s face that I have never seen before. The look is almost impossible to describe. He looked like he was having a flashback while at the same time witnessing everything before him. But I do know that he was really happy. Hamish is now strong and healthy again and works closely with Bunny. They are building their relationship once again and it’s simply beautiful. I was so worried about Ashton that day. I called him not too long after Hamish was taken to the nearest hospital. But the phone kept ringing. I thought that he might have been busy but it continued for a week. Then a week turned into a month. Then a month into a year; then a year into two. Ashton and I have not spoken in two years and as much as I try to pretend that it does not affect me, I know deep down that I’m angry at him. I feel like he gave up on me, and I don’t ca

I am heading to the building where Zayn works. It’s not far from my building and I expect Hamish and Bunny to be there also. I feel a lightness in my heart since I talked to Ashton. I’m really glad that I did. I have not been to Beacon in a long time. I was sixteen years old when I left. I am now eighteen. I rarely talk to my parents or even Tessa, because I got angry at Ashton that he was ignoring my ad so I cut all from everybody back home. Back a year or two ago when I was blowing up Ashton's phone with calls and voicemails, I masked my intentions with wanting to know whether he was alright. He had done something that I know that his dad would never sign up on: he let Hamish go. The risk of the werewolf people now finding out that there was a war prisoner held is really high but that is not Zayn’s plan.My intentions were masked by that but I just really did not want to let him go. I did not want him to start fighting for me even though I knew that it was the best decision for e

I stare at Zayn as I try to process what he just told me. “What?” My voice is soft and filled with mild surprise. “Why would you want to do that?”Zayn laughs to himself and walks back to his desk. Instead of sitting in the chair, he sits on the shiny wooden desk. “Because I love you. Have I not made that obvious yet? Or have you just not been listening to me when I said it for years now?”“I thought you were mad at me,” I pace the room slowly. “Not were, I’m still mad at you. You have been keeping a secret from me for two years. I don’t want us dwelling on secrets, Lara.” He stares at me. “And if you kept that away from me then that means that that kiss affected you.”“No,” I try to argue and Zayn only scoffs faintly as she shakes his head slowly. “And I don’t want us trying to have a baby just because Ashton and my sister had one.” “Lara, I know you more than you can imagine. You are the love of my life. I have been obsessed with you since I met you. Trust me when I say that I kno

I watch Ashton approach me and my breath hitches. I had not seen him for so long that I forgot some of his physical features. Not that I would ever forget him but his image in my mind was getting blurry.I walk towards him and he gives me a warm smile when we reach each other. ”It’s nice seeing you, Lara. I’m so happy that you could make it.” “It’s nice being here too,” I replied and looked around, admiring the mansion. “Mind if I give you a hug?”“Oh, no. Of course, you can give me a hug,” I chuckle, and we both embrace. He smells really good and I take in his scent. “How was your trip here?” Ashton asks when we break the hug. He begins to lead me to the entrance of the mansion.“It was good…” My voice is bland and void of emotions. I thought that I was ready to be here but I don’t think that I am. The stupid voice in my head keeps reminding me that I would have had all of this life if I had just chosen to be with Ashton. It would have been my baby shower. But I’m okay with it.

“Come on, guys. You have Lara and me out here waiting like kids waiting to open up gifts on Christmas morning!” Zayn exclaimed, causing everyone to laugh. The door suddenly opened by itself and my eyes widened mildly. “Did that door just open by itself?” I took a step back, and Ashton and Zoe were amused by my reaction. The door opened wider and a golden retriever jumped out of the car, almost giving me a heart attack. “Gosh!” I exclaimed as I held Zayn’s arm tightly. “I’m not going to lie, I was a bit startled when that dog came out.” Zayn laughed lightly. “So that’s the surprise, huh? A doggie.” Zayn bend down and played with the dog. I had a small fear of dogs. One bit me when I was a kid and since then I have been terrified of them. No matter how cute and cuddly they were, I stayed my distance away from them. The golden retriever kept licking and jumping on Zayn like it had known him for years. “The doggie is a surprise but not for you guys, he’s for the kids.” Ashton
A Forbidden Bond Bonus Chapter~ 41
It was Christmas day, the 25th of December. Werewolves were howling in celebration even though it was the sun that was up. Carols were being played and families were together. The air was warm, the sky was crystal blue, and the day was perfect. Where did the Werewolf Territory take the concept of Christmas when we believed in the Moon goddess? We adopted it thousands of years ago when humans once lived amongst us. They celebrated our holidays and so we did the same, as a show of respect. That was when the word Christmas entered the vocabulary of the Werewolf Territory. And since then, we have celebrated the day and passed on the tradition from generation to generation. The Christmas tree in the living room was lit up and gifts were scattered under it. All the kids were up and sat eagerly next to their presents, waiting for us to give them the go-ahead to start opening up them. The air was filled with anticipation and joy. A hot cup of chocolate sat in my hand and Zayn was drinki

My claws immediately sprang forth from underneath my fingernails, and a growl escaped my mouth. “What the hell are you doing here? You should be in prison.” I was on the verge of wolfing out. It was not like I felt threatened by Jacob, but I did not like the fact that he was in our mansion without us even knowing. The kids were literally right across the hall from there. “Please. Please calm down and let me explain,” He begged. He placed the box of chocolate on the kitchen island and took a step toward us.“Not another step, buddy. I won’t hesitate to rip you to pieces.” Zayn threatened him, and he gulped as he nodded. My wolf had not gotten any real action for a while and it was yearning for some. I usually trained in the training room with Zoe and the others almost every Saturday though my wolf wanted more. “Start explaining.” I breathed out a short sigh as I continued to keep my wolf at bay.“Okay. Okay. But first, promise not to kick me out, please?” His eyes were pleading. I

‘You can’t save me, she-wolf.’ The words echoed in my head as I stared into Alex’s sad eyes. He looked convinced that he was beyond saving and that seemed to scare me a bit. He was too sure.“But at least let me try,” I begged him. He scoffed. “What are you even going to do? Bring my wife back?” He rose to his feet. “For now, Lara, just let me try to figure out the journey I’m on emotionally. I will go back to my pack…eventually.” “Okay.” I did not push him. And he did have a point. What was I going to do to save him? I was not a superhero. I did not have special powers. I was just a she-wolf that cared deeply for people.And apparently, that was called a hero mentality; wanting to help everyone to the point where sometimes I didn’t even regard myself. Alex may have said it while he was lashing out but I think he was right: He had been a leader way longer than I had. I may have been queen but that was just a nice coating, deep inside, I was still an omega. “It’s kind of late, I th

A few seconds of silence filled the home theatre because the cartoon could not play forever, obviously. The projector was now off and the fancy inbuild lights on the ceiling were on. Alex sat next to me and played with his fingers nervously. He looked slightly uncomfortable but a look of determination also could be seen on his face. “For starters, I have two questions.” I began, and he turned his full attention to me. “Shoot.”“First one is what you mean when you said that I have earned the right or privilege to ask you about anything?” I raised one of my eyebrows. He smiled weakly. “Lara, you have become family. You have proven to me that you can be trusted and that you are willing to go through hell to protect my son. Do we have to do the whole ‘I am a blessing’ stuff over again?” He chuckled, and I could not help but laugh lightly. “No, thank you,” I refused as I continued to laugh. “That is why I came back here after I lashed out at you. You did not deserve that; you have be

I sat down next to Alex and the smell of his cologne filled my nose. It was a strong scent but I really liked it though. The black-and-white cartoon playing on the projector was aesthetically pleasing. It reminded me of the past. Not just any past, or mine. But like the 1960s. Weird because I was not even alive at that time but that was the vibe I got from looking at Mickey Mouse doing funny dances while in black-and-white color. “You said you wanted to talk?” Alex smiled weakly as intrigue smeared his facial features. He was wearing a hoodie that looked great on him. If we were not about to talk about serious matters, I would have asked him where he got it. “Yeah, but you go first. What do you want to talk about?” I adjusted myself in my seat and made myself comfortable enough. My attention was trained on him as I awaited him to speak. “You sure?” “Yeah, go ahead.” I encouraged him. I was curious as to what he wanted to talk to me about. But I already knew what I wanted to talk

I crossed my legs and watched Gene and Zayn sip lemonade from the glasses that were brought by the male helper. I was very invested in Gene’s backstory. I wanted to know more. “You have not touched your lemonade, dear,” Gene pointed out and we both glanced at the tall glass that was filled with the yellowy-sugary drink. “Her teeth hurt when she drinks lemonade,” Zayn explained politely, and I smiled involuntarily. He placed his hand over mine on the couch and a warm feeling filled my chest. “Sorry,” I mouthed to Gene but she brushed me off lightly. “Oh, that’s alright. You should have told me.” She crossed her legs too. “Would you like me to send for water?” “No, it’s okay. Don’t trouble yourself.” I played with the tips of my hair. “You said that the Silver Moon pack has unspoken laws?” “Uh, yeah. Laws that have been passed down from generation to generation. It’s not written and posted somewhere but it’s in the hearts of all the inhabitants of Rocky. I learned about those laws

Smiles. Laughter. Joy. A lightness filled the air as Alex got out of the detective’s car. Snow fell from the sky and soon made white patches on his hair. His face was flushed and he had a smile so bright, that it could light up a dark night. The light humming of the car lingered in the air, and detective Stone and her wife got out of the car seconds later with cheerful looks on their faces. Bunny and the others joined us outside and Liam was out of words when his eyes landed on his dad. He glanced at me and his lips parted in disbelief. “Thank you,” He mouthed, and then turned his attention back to Alex. Liam watched his dad approach him and his eyes became glossy as they threatened to spill tears. He kept clenching and unclenching his jaw, and I could tell that he was trying his best to stop himself from crying. When Alex closed the distance between him and his son, they hugged each other tightly, and the scene made me teary. Zayn wrapped his right arm around my torso and pulled
