"Noooo…" Nicole screamed, and then sat frozen in shock while still looking at Roman. At the same time, another bullet shot through his shoulder, and then Nicole came back to her senses and then tried to scramble out of the car which was locked."Roman…" Nicole screamed his name, frantically trying to get the other open. Her wound which had stopped bleeding started to bleed. However, she didn't even care, she just wanted to get to him.It didn't even matter if she had just met him that day, his state at that moment worried her to no end.On the other hand, Roman's guns had fallen from his hands as he couldn't even hold onto them. His eyes were turning dizzy, his wolf was about to take over. In the car, Nicole managed to get the door open, and as soon as she was out she was pushed back in by the driver. "Let me go. I need to help him." Nicole struggled against the driver, her attention taken away from Roman. "I can't let you go. You need to stay in the car and wait for the boss' ret
"Miss Nicole…" The driver shouted as soon as he turned around. He saw that Nicole was no longer in the car."The f**k!" He let out a curse. His head started to bang. He was tasked to protect the girl but she had run off. The driver started to sniff the air in order to catch a whiff of Nicole's scent. The challenging thing was that there were too many scents in the air. He couldn't detect hers."You looking for the girl?" Azazel who was on the other side shouted and the driver's head whipped to look at him."What do you know?" The driver asked back. He was already suspicious that Azazel knew something. Before Azazel could answer, the driver took off in the direction of the bushes."Haha, you can't find her without me." Azazel laughed out loud as he ran after the driver. He made a decision that it was either he killed Roman or the girl. It was obvious that the girl was important to Roman."Nicole…" The driver yelled as her scent was starting to get prominent in the air."Nicole?" Azaze
"Ahhhhh…" Nicole screamed and they both rushed toward Roman."Roman…" Nicole called out."Boss…" The driver called at the same time.Nicole was incredibly panicky as she ran toward Roman but then the driver knew Roman was fine.Getting to Roman, Nicole slumped to the ground. Her face was filled with disbelief and shock.She was sure that he had a gunshot to his heart but then she could only blotches of blood on his chest."He was shot, right?" She asked, to no one in particular. "We don't have time for that, Nicole. We need to take him home, he will be fine." The driver said and then proceeded to carry Roman. couldn'tHowever, Roman was incredibly heavy and huge for him. At the same time, he didn't want to ask Nicole for help.****A day later, Roman was laying still on his bed and Nicole sat solemnly on the sofa.Also, Bryce and Jamie were in the bedroom and the overwhelming aura they possessed made Nicole a bit afraid.Seeing what had happened that night, she was starting to look
In another part of the house, Bryce and Jamie were standing before the open balcony. As they overlooked the beautiful and serene environment, each of them had different thoughts swirling in their heads."Is there a way we can go back to the pack, Grandpa?" Jamie asked, her gaze lost in the distance.She had seen the dread in Nicole's eyes and she knew they were despised for being Werewolves."No, baby. We can't go back." Bryce answered simply. "Why?" Jamie asked, her head snapping to look at him."It's more complicated than you think, little girl." He answered simply.However, Jamie was having none of it."Is this why you have refused me to shift? You are hiding something from me and Roman and we need to know about it." Jamie yelled and then marched out of the balcony area. Looking at her walking away, Bryce sighed and then turned around. The serene environment didn't calm him one bit, as his granddaughter's words continued to ring in his head.He knew he couldn't go back to his pac
All heads turned toward the elder who had just spoken. The pack members were surprised at the way the elder called out to the Alpha, and also indirectly said the Alpha was lying."What do you mean, Nate?" Bryce asked with a defiant look in his eyes. He didn't believe that anyone would go against him in the pack, except his parents. His parents were not even in the pack at that moment. "It's a simple knowledge, Alpha. You know you have not communicated with your wolf for a long time now. He has refused to grant you an audience." Nate replied a few seconds after Bryce completed his words. Murmurs started to go around the common hall. Almost all the members of the pack had come down to the common hall. The news of the Alpha has spread and everyone wanted to see their Luna. However, they were met with another shocking news. The Alpha had not been communicating with his wolf! "How can he say that about the Alpha? That is absurd." A loud member's voice sounded out and the other members
The Blue Moon Pack was in disarray, the atmosphere was tense. It had been days since the Alpha had claimed someone else as his mate and everyone knew what it entails. No one wanted to associate with Bryce anymore. The pack members no longer respected him as the Alpha. They avoided him like he was a plague. Even as he presided over the occasional everyday meetings with the elders, he was only met with disapproval from them all.Sometimes, the elders would remain silent until the supposed meeting was over. Bryce on the other hand was getting crazed. He was being pressurized from all sides. "You have to break that bond, Alpha. You know the consequence and you also know that you cannot continue to rule if you're still mated to her." Nate tried to advise him.Even though it was a very hard thing to break a bond, it was still possible. However, Bryce was not ready to go through the process, not until Genevieve let him."I have made my decision, Nate. The Pack would have to respect my deci
"No, grandfather. I can never do that!" Roman replied immediately after. His heart clenched in pain at the thought of losing Nicole whom he just met."What do you mean, no? She's a potential threat to our race. Her father is a freaking hunter and she's about to join the hunter's group." Bryce explained. It was also obvious that he was disappointed with Roman. Hearing his grandfather's words, Roman almost stumbled for a second. He had asked for a report on Nicole's family and he was yet to have it.But then he didn't think her family was into something so deep. He looked up to his grandfather who expected him to take up the gun and put a bullet through Nicole's head and he shook his head."Why did you agree to lend her father money since you knew they were hunters, huh?" Roman asked after a little reasoning.He didn't think his grandfather was that generous. "That's none of your business, Roman." Bryce said but his words wouldn't convince Roman a bit."Then she won't join the hunte
"What do you mean?" Nicole's head snapped to look at Roman while she asked.His question scared her and she wondered why he would say a thing like that. Is going to get shot again? On the other hand, Roman smirked wickedly and stood up. In one second, his expression changed into a mysterious and unreadable one, she realized things were about to get serious. Immediately after Roman stood up, she stood up. She didn't like the way he was acting."Come with me…" Roman said simply and then walked forward with Nicole trailing behind. In a few minutes, they left the building and they were in an open area. It looked like a tennis court that was renovated.But then Nicole set her eyes on a striking scene, "W-what is that for?" She asked, her voice a bit shaky in the beginning.A man was tied up and his face was bloodied but then she could still recognize his face. Two hefty men in black were standing beside the man and their hands were bloodied."You know him?" Roman came behind Nicole and
After Mrs Liu had dispersed the substance into Nicole's body, Nicole hasn't stopped from proclaiming that she isn't mated to Roman and likewise wasn't meant to be his Luna.She had left the healer's quarter without his knowledge since he wasn't back yet, with the thought that she'd wake up after a long time.As soon as she left the quarter, the way she behaved made every one who saw her assume she had run mad again. It was looking more like a psychiatric patient who had luckily escaped her prison."Who said I am mated to Roman?" She scoffed. "I don't like him, I don't fancy any thing about him. Why on earth would you think I would want him as a mate? Well, I ain't interested in any of that, and I don't want to be his so-called Luna, okay?! That shit should go to hell as well."Some guards had tried to stop her and take her back to the healer's quarters but she insisted. "Don't you even touch me or I'll strangle your neck to hell." She threatened."I don't need Roman. I don't want his
Nicole was standing before the floor-to-ceiling window, in Roman's study. There was a bottle of wine in her hand and her eyes were red.Her face was pale and she looked like she would pass out any moment from now. "Luna!" Zarius suddenly called out from behind as he walked into the study. His eyes were filled with so much worry for her. However, he didn't get a response from her, as she was lost in thought. "Luna!" He called out again as he moved closer to her. A few seconds later, she turned to look at him, with raised brows. "You are needed at the daycare!" Zarius said, with a serious look. "I'll be there!" Nicole answered coldly and then turned to look back at the window. For days she had been shuffling between the bedroom and Roman's study. She also tried desperately to avoid her parentsZarius stood there for a few more seconds. Slowly, he then turned around to leave but he halted his steps when he heard her voice. "Where are my parents?" She asked and at this point, she
The meeting room went into a pin-drop silence as Scar lay on the floor, with blood oozing out of his head continuously. However, the others weren't fazed. It wasn't the first time they had seen such a level of killing. As soon as they heard Roman's question, they spoke up, "No Boss!" Their voice was chorused and there was obvious fear and respect in their eyes for Roman. "Let's proceed!" Roman ordered as he sat back down on his chair. Immediately, Lucas proceeded with his informal presentation, "The import of goods has been on the low as Azazel has taken over half of the market!" He said. As he continued to say what had been happening in Roman's absence, Roman felt uneasy in his seat. His hands were clenched into tight fists. Everything his grandfather had worked for, was slowly crumbling. Minutes passed and Lucas was done talking. He looked up at Roman, waiting for his next order. "What information do you have about Azazel and his organization?" Roman asked, with a serious lo
Roman and Jamie drove speedily into the Salvatore mansion. He had a fierce expression on his face while Jamie had a big smile on her face.There was a row of men dressed in black, standing before the mansion's entrance. Immediately the car stopped, and one of the men rushed forward and opened the car door for Roman. "Welcome, Boss!" He greeted him with a deep bow. His voice was filled with so much enthusiasm and immediately Roman stepped out. The men all bowed, "Welcome back, Boss!" They chorused, in a loud and respectful tone. They had missed the era of Roman as the mafia head. Even though they were happy to see him, they kept on stoic faces.On the other hand, Roman was filled with so much nostalgia and he felt like he was home.He felt more at home here than in the Pack."Where is Lucas?" He asked, in a cold tone as he looked all around. On the other hand, Lucas had stealthily walked toward Jamie's side of the door."Welcome!" He greeted her, with a slight smile on his face.
An hour passed and Nicole was before her parents' ward. She was absolutely not ready to see them but then she couldn't avoid them. For a moment, she started to sympathize with her mother for her injury. But then she was stable now and she started to think why Roman would just suddenly attack her mother. She couldn't fathom what reason he would have.He had the power to kill them off a long time ago but then he didn't. All because of the love he had for her. "Do you want to go in, now?" Zarius asked from behind.He was diligent in looking after her as it was Roman's most important instruction to him. "Yes." Nicole answered, with a shake of her fingers.Her lips quivered as she took a step forward and swiftly, she turned the doorknob shakily.As she walked in, she spotted her mother laying on the bed, with a smile on her face.She looked rosy and not like someone who had been injured.As she took another step into the ward, she glanced at her father. He had a serious expression on
Nicole opened her eyes with a start and she felt a stabbing pain in the back of her head. Her eyes were as clear as day but then her head was in a mushy state.She couldn't remember what had happened the night before. The rays of the morning sun shone through the windows, as Nicole continued to reel on what had happened. A few seconds later, the scenes of last night started to flood in her head. Her eyes widened in shock as she remembered what she had done.Immediately, she shot up to her feet as her heart thudded in her chest.Last night, while Roman was in the study after Nate left, Nicole had gone to see her parents. There she found her mother bleeding from her stomach. Without thinking twice, she had rushed back to the room to look for Roman, however, he wasn't there. She was livid and it felt like she was going to kill Roman. She was overwhelmed by an emotion she didn't recognize. "Roman!" Nicole yelled, with fear in her eyes as she dashed into the bathroom to look for him
"Shit!" Roman cussed as Nicole dashed toward him with a crazed expression. Her fingers were lengthened and before long, she was before him.She stretched her hand in a bid to attack him but he was quick to hold onto her. "Ahhh!" She screamed as she tried to get hold of his neck. Her eyes were red and it was like she had been possessed. Her real self was locked deep within her mind."Nicole!" Roman yelled as he held onto her tightly. He used most of his strength to restrain her as she was unimaginably strong. He was trying to bring her back by yelling her name but then it wasn't working."How dare you!" She yelled as she struggled against him. The indignant feeling in her eyes was strong.At this point, Roman knew she was going crazy about something."What are you saying, Nicole?" Roman asked as his grip started to loosen around her. Swiftly, she took hold of the opportunity and dragged herself out of his hold. Their hands struggled and Nicole jumped, with so much force. She toppl
"What do you mean?" Roman asked, with a frown on his face. His brows were scrunched up, in confusion. Immediately, he moved closer to Nicole and sat beside her.Taking hold of her hand, he could see how pale her skin was and he was filled with worry. "She is being controlled!" Nate said but then his tone was filled with uncertainty. His eyes were narrowed and in the next second, he folded his arms."What do you mean she is being controlled? She has a mind of her own." Roman said but then he wasn't even a hundred percent sure about his words. He had also noticed that she wasn't herself. "Yes! She does but it doesn't seem so." Nate replied. "Can you find out who is controlling her? Or is she feigning it?" Roman asked. He started to think in all directions, not knowing what to do. At his words, Nate sighed and then said, "Unfortunately, no. I can't even find a trace of any unfamiliar energy." He replied. Hearing Nate's words, Roman frowned. He started to wonder how the seer had fou
"What do you want?" She asked, immediately, with an indignant look. On the other hand, Roman was greatly surprised to see her in the bedroom. He was damn sure she had been in the study a while ago."Did you leave the bedroom?" He asked, with a frown on his face, ignoring her question."What do you mean? I never left! You want me to leave now?" She asked, and then crossed her arms. Her eyes shone with defiance and she was ready to refute anything he says."What?! No! I don't want that!" He said and then took a step back. He wanted to see if she was really fine but then he didn't see anything wrong."Maybe I was seeing things!" He said to himself and was about to turn around. He still could sense a different energy coming from her and he wasn't about to have a brawl with her. As he took a step forward, Nicole's voice rang out, "When are you releasing my parents?" Her eyes were filled with so much authority and her tone was fierce. It wasn't like she was asking him to, she was demandi
