Storm's POV Dania seemed like a nice person, I didn't get any feeling that she disliked me which was a relief and also quite sad, a relief because it felt good to meet someone who could be a potential friend and ally, sad because since I didn't view her as an enemy, I won't be able to fight using my anger and hatred. "You did well," Dania said, panting. She stretched her hand towards me to help me stand. I accepted it and groaned as I tried to stand but my legs refused to give. After many attempts, I finally stood. Noah handed me a bottle of water while I tried to catch my breath. The match had been quite slow, I had put up a good fight against Dania but she was really good. She had been on the offensive side while I stayed mainly on defense, using the skills that Noah had taught me. Our fight had attracted the whole center and everyone had gathered around to watch us fight.Very few of them had been on my side during the fight, they had not believed that I would hold my ow
Storm's POV" First things first, these are my clothes and I like them so I'm going to wear them, you have no right to tell me what to wear and what not to wear. I'm wearing them and that's final." I turned away from him and increased the volume of my tutorial video, trying to concentrate on getting my flawless makeup. My grip on the concealer was too tight that I spilled it on the table"Fuck, I can't believe he just said he won't let me out of the house because of how I'm dressed, how does that even make sense," I muttered to myself, grabbing wipes from the box and cleaning up furiously."Storm, I'm just being honest, what you have on doesn't cover half of your body. I don't know where you guys are going but I can guess it will be packed with males that are extremely horny. Most of them will claim that you were trying to seduce that because of the clothes you have on." He said, his eyes were downcast and his shoulder dropped, he was really worried about me. I didn't know what to say
Storm's POV"Your body is so soft." He bent and whispered into my ears, his voice made my skin crawl, I tried to get his hands off me but his grip was too tight and I was at a disadvantage because my hands were shaking and I was unstable because I was drunk. He pulled me back and there was a great distance between Tasha and I. I could barely even see her. "Let me go." I thrashed again him. "Come on, calm down, you know you like it. I've been watching you and I see the way you've been shaking that fat ass, you've been asking for it all night." He chuckled. This guy was delusional, I needed to get away from him fast. I jabbed him in his belly as hard as I could and he let go of me, crouching down in pain. "You bitch! What the fuck is wrong with you? You're going to pay for this." He came at me but I was prepared, I kicked him in his belly and grabbed him as he bent to deliver a punch to the nose, I heard it crack then I rounded it up with a quick jab to the throat. He fell to the gro
Noah's POVMy heart was racing so fast and my eyes saw red. I quickly mindlink Dania and Tasha.*Where the fuck are the both of you?* I snapped at them.*Alpha!* Dania replied immediately.*Noah, what's wrong?* Tasha asked.*You guys have to go to Storm right now. She's in trouble.**What! I've been looking everywhere for her, she told me she was going to the restroom and hadn't been back since then.* Dania said worriedly. I crushed the plastic cup in my hands.*And you didn't think to call me. Dania, she's at the alley at the back of the club, she's with a vampire and she's scared.*Tasha gasped. * Oh no, Dania, we have to go find her now.**Yes, I'm already at the back door, come find me.* Dania said.*Dania, make sure not even a strand of hair on her head is removed. I'll be there soon, keep that vampire alive for me.* *Yes, Alpha.* I cut off the mindlink and grabbed my keys, phone, and hurried out of the house into my car. I already knew the club they were at. I sent a quick min
Noah's POVThree days had passed since Storm had gone into a coma. I could hardly eat or sleep I was barely alive. The news of Storm's condition spread around the pack faster than I liked. My pack members kept coming around to see if I was okay or needed anything but only a few of them were really concerned about Storm. Most of them just came for clout and it irritated me.I had purposely left the vampire until now, I wanted him to feel immense pain and what better way than using hunger? Tasha was with Storm and I left, heading to the dungeons. Caleb was waiting for me when I arrived, he led me to where the vampire was kept."Do you know the guy's name?" I asked as we walked together." His name is Oliver. We disposed of his phone, you were right to talk about his phone, I had forgotten about it." Caleb said. The guy was haggard and he smelt terrible, I saw some new bruises on his body, I guess my men had been having their turns with him, his eyes opened immediately I entered the ro
Noah's POVMy towel immediately went around my waist in a frantic hurry, I could barely tie it properly."Oh shucks, come on now, don't cover up, I was enjoying the show." She pouted. Amanda lounged on the bed like it was hers, she looked at me with lustful eyes and I was disgusted." What the hell are you doing here? Get the fuck off my bed." I growled at her, my lycan was rising to the surface, it was clawing to come out and deal with her."Hey, aren't you happy to see me? You should, I came to see you. I know you must be lonely now, I came over so you won't be lonely." She ignored my command and flipped her hair."Are you mad or what? Didn't you hear what I said, get the fuck off my bed before I snap your neck." I bared my teeth at her and she stood up in a hurry. "Okay, I'm off the bed. Calm the hell down." She laughed nervously.I pointed at the door. "Get out!" I said in a calm but deadly voice." No way, I got off the bed, I'm not leaving the room." She stood defiantly and cro
Storm's POVI was in a dark abyss, I tried to move my body but it refuses to budge. It was like I was chained to something, I looked around but I couldn't see anything because of the darkness. There were sounds around me, someone was talking, I tried to speak but my mouth refused to open. I needed their help, I couldn't remind here, I pushed and pushed, tugging my body upwards, I tried to speak again but still nothing. I struggled against the chains and I finally felt a little freedom, I tugged harder and the chains loosened, I broke free and suddenly I was thrust into a deep pool of water. I clawed my way through but it felt like I was going to drown. The voices were getting louder so I knew I was close to the top, I was getting tired but I didn't let it stop me, I pushed with my last strength and then my head was out of the water."Ahh!" I gasped as my eyes opened. The lights in the room were too bright and hit me hard, I closed them quickly and waited for a few seconds before slow
Storm's POV" I'm grateful you guys were here when she woke up. It is a good thing she woke up to see familiar faces." I heard Noah's voice as I woke up, my heart skipped for a second and I was elated that he was here. I had acted like I couldn't care if he was around or not but I was lying. His presence alone brought me peace."I'm so glad you're awake, Rainstorm. I've been going insane without you. " He whispered and kissed my forehead gently. I sighed and popped one eye open to look at him.His eyes widened when he saw me and he smiled widely, I chuckled and opened the other eye.I yawned and stretched, "Of course, you know you can't do anything without me." I whispered back. He cupped my face and kissed me. The kiss shocked me but I didn't fight him, I closed my eyes and relished it, his tongue hit my lips and I parted them, letting him in, we fought for dominance with our tongues until we were out of breath and broke apart.He stepped back and smiled at me, his eyes glassy. I s
Ten years laterStorm's POV"Let go, it's mine." "No, it's mine." Identical sets of screams came from up the stairs, and soon the screams escalated to stomps and thuds, I took a sip from my glass of wine, waiting for someone to cry first before I climbed up the stairs to deal with them."Mom, aren't you going to do something about that?" I turned to see Fiona, she crossed her arms over her chest and glared at me, she was now a cranky fifteen years old and thought she was better than everyone. Fiona had grown beautifully in the last ten years, she was tall for her age, almost 5'8, her glossy red hair was pulled back in a tight bun, her lips were full and she had the eyes of a seductress. Fiona started calling me Mom when she was six and I remember how hard I cried the first time she said it."I'm waiting for them to draw blood." I glanced at Fiona over and couldn't hold the laughter that shot out of me.Fiona was dressed in a black crop top and short shorts with spiky black boots. Th
Noah's POVThe room had an eerie feel to it, the quickness and the stench of antiseptics made it worse. I walked over to Storm and held her hand. "David, is she fine? Is she hurt anywhere? Does she need surgery? Why is she still unconscious? " I rambled the questions out but my eyes were focused on Storm."She's fine, the impact of the choking caught off the air in her brain for a minute but she's a fighter and so is the baby. She'll be back home in a day or two." He said, my brain had only heard the word baby, what the hell was going on?"Baby, what baby? Who has a baby?" Was he talking about Fiona?David's eyes widened and he cleared his throat."Oh, erm, so I'm guessing you don't know. " He loosened his tie. " Storm is seven weeks pregnant, I don't know why she hasn't told you, she's known since she was three weeks pregnant." My chest ached and my eyes burned, Storm was pregnant and I was going to be a father. How come I didn't know, how could she not tell me?"Noah, are you okay?
Storm's POVThe doorbell rang, and Fiona and I made eye contact over the table, she shrugged and continued eating her pancakes. I headed to the door and opened it. Bianca stood at the other side looking like she had been in a catfight and lost."Hello Storm," Her voice came out raspy and I almost felt like offering her some water."Bianca, it's been a while." I crossed my arms around my chest and took a defensive stance. I was ready to fight her in case she decided to act mad."Can I come in?" She asked, her eyes downcast. She looked tired and worn out." It depends, are you here to cause trouble for me because if you are, I'm sorry but you can't." She shook her head, " I'm not. I came here to apologize." My eyes widened and I stepped back and she entered. I closed the door behind us. Bianca took a seat, I excused myself, and went to prep Fiona, she had finished her breakfast, I put the dishes in the sink and took her up to her room to play with her tab. I returned to the living ro
Storm's POVMom calmed down after a while and King Benedict interrogated my father about Maureen, our late pack doctor. In all my years of knowing that woman, I never expected she could do something like this."Did Maureen tell you who paid her to switch our babies?" He asked.Dad stroked his jaw, his arm around Mom, " I remember the name clearly, she called him Alessio. She said he was very powerful and rich." King Benedict laughed." Alessio, huh? Why am I not surprised? That bastard had been after me since we were born." I raised my eyebrows, confused." Who is he?" I asked."He was my twin brother. He was jealous that I had been born before him, making me the next in line for the throne, he always looked for a way to attack me but I didn't think he would scope so low to give me a dead child." Wow, what a hateful man." What are you going to do to him now that you know the truth?" Dad asked.King Benedict laughed again but this time bitterly. "I can't do anything to a dead man.
Storm's POVNoah explained everything to me about Fiona, I grabbed my phone that had brought me back to the room and left. Fiona rested her head on my lap and played a game on the tab that Noah had gotten her, I still couldn't believe everything that has happened today, I was still trying to figure out how to deal with my new identity then I find out that Fiona was my niece. Could this day get any more complicated?I ran my fingers through Fiona's red hair, I was glad that we were related, I looked at the little girl but now that the king and queen knew she was their granddaughter, I was sure there was no way they were going to let her go back with us. My Lycan growled at that thought, I had become overprotective of her and I didn't want to leave her.A knock came on the door, Fiona raised her head, "Come in," She screeched. The door opened and Noah came in, I turned away. Fiona rushed to embrace him and he raised her and twirled her around, she squealed with joy and he laughed as wel
Storm's POVI felt my heart pumping hard in my chest, it felt like I was running out of oxygen and struggling for breath. King Benedict and Noah had been quiet since Queen Claire started talking, I couldn't understand how they could sit there and listen to her spew this bullshit unless they believed it as well. A million and one thoughts ran through my head, it was impossible for me to be their child, I already had parents, parents who raised me and loved me. I've seen my birth pictures, I might not look a lot like my parents but their blood ran through my veins, and their DNA was encrypted into me."Your majesty, that's impossible, I have parents, I told you about them. My parents love me very much, I can't be your child. Let's say I am your daughter, why the hell will my parents steal your child, they are good people, the best. I will not have you spoiling their good image." I dropped my arms and made eye contact with her. Queen Claire shook her head, " Storm, don't take this the w
Noah's POVIf the ground could open up and swallow me, I would have been very happy, everyone froze at my actions. My eyes stilled on the semisolid contents of my belly on the ground. I didn't know what to do. This was one of the rare times when I was brain-dead. Queen Claire was the first to recover, her hand went to my cheek and she dropped a resounding slap there. " What in the Moon goddess' name is wrong with you?" She spat out. I hadn't been expecting the slap but I sure as hell deserved it."I'm sorry, it's just that I had too much to drink, your majesty, I'm really sorry, I deserve any punishment you want to give me." I bowed my head, Queen Claire growled but didn't say anything else. Jasper returned and showed her to the guest bathroom to clean up while I quickly went to make myself presentable." Now that you look like a coherent human being, I'll ask again, where is Storm?" Queen Claire asked, she was seated on the couch with her legs crossed. I sighed and braced myself f
Noah's POV David had told me to take it easy on my feet but I didn't listen, I rushed to Storm and covered her mouth with my fingers before she could complete her statement. I felt a small twinge in my lower back because of my quick movement.She thrashed against my hand and bit it. I drop the hand and stepped back."Why the hell did you do that?!" She yelled at me. I stared at her in surprise."Why did I do that? Why the hell were you trying to reject me? Have you gone insane?" " No, I'm doing what I should have done a long time ago, I should have rejected you the day we might. I can't believe that I let myself be dragged into your disastrous life. I had rejected you earlier on, I wouldn't have gone through all this pain and trauma." Anger rolled off her and she shot daggers at me. The door slammed, and I looked back to see that Jasper had exited the house. He must have known that the conversation Storm and I were about to have wasn't going to be an easy one.*Storm, you can't reje
Storm's POVQueen Claire's sudden departure confused me and I was also worried about her. Tasha and Dania talked to each other and pulled up my blanket and turned to Luisa, I wanted to know more about the mysterious witch that had saved me. How did Noah find her? "Luisa, how did you and Noah meet? Are you guys close friends?" I asked her, she jerked in shock, Tasha and Dania stopped talking and focused on us."Yeah, I have also wanted to know, Storm's kidnap just took over my mind. My brother isn't one to make friends easily so I'm intrigued." Luisa hesitated, she avoided making eye contact with me and looked at the wall. "Well, we meet about thirty years ago at a bar in the human world, I worked as a bartender then, I served him drinks and we got talking, he knew I was a witch and I knew who he was as well. Long story short, we hooked up, and we had a fling for about a month before his psychopathic ex-girlfriend came and started acting like a stalker. I didn't want any drama so I
