(Charlotte’s POV )He looks so gorgeous."No, this can't be." I thought.He can't be mine.'Impossible', the back of my mind whispers.I feel something corrupt inside me, fear. I can feel danger.But this would be first, danger never felt so good before."You fuckers, get the hell away from her." Hescreams.I swear I can feel the floor shake. So demanding, I thought."We're not touching her for fucks sake Maddox!"Leo yells at him.I can't believe it. Maddox is my freaking mate."I don't care Leo. You're not ten feet away from her." I can see Maddox's veins pop out. His rich brown hair messily stands there, so astounding and so soft.Leo grumbles profanities. He moved away, and so did the other guys.I felt my cheeks flush. He's causing a lot of trouble."You," he pointed in my direction. I gulped, "Me?""No him," he sarcastically says. "Yes you," he shots back.I probably look like a tomato now. This is so embarrassing."Come here," he demandingly says.Walking slowly, I thought abo
( Charlotte’s POV )We all come to that one point where we just want to sing, "Fuck it all. Fuck it all. Don't give a shit anymore." But when the time comes, the day gets shittier than ever."I think you should help us calm him down." Leo mutters.And sometimes, you just feel like throwing trees at people. Like what Maddox does-except he likes throwing them at the parking lot."Mates," I fake-enthusiastically say."This is not the time for sarcasm Bree," Leo warns.I grumbled profanities but followed Leo outside.And guess what? Maddox is throwing trees at the parking lot."What did I fucking do to her?!" Maddox exclaims.He grabs a very big trunk from the parking lot, and then throws the big trunk back to the forest."Maddox" I warn."What?" He growls, fiercely. "Stop, you're acting like a child." I yell."And you're acting like a selfish bitch!" He shouts.I glared at him. If he wants to deal this the hard way, then so be it."Maddox baby, come on, you're better than this.Please do
( Yvonne’s P.O.V. )I'm still a little angry with Connor. My tigress doesn't want him around unmated women either though, so I guess I can't judge. I'll ask if Lily and Trish can come over for a while, just so I have people to talk to while he's handling his Alpha duties."Yvonne? Sweetie, we're sorry." I hear my mom say from behind me. I turn and lay my arms across the back of the couch and rest my head on them."It's okay mom. I agreed. I guess I understand that his wolf doesn't want me around other males until I'm marked. It's his way of protecting what's his."My mom nods, but her brow is creased.Just then, my dad walks in and wraps an arm around her shoulders. "That mate of yours is quite demanding." He says it and I can hear his irritation."Yeah, sorry dad, I heard about it. Why did you submit?" I ask while tilting my head.My dad clears his throat and avoids eye contact."I'm an old wolf."I scoffed. "You've always been an old wolf to me, yet you beat me all the time."My mo
( Connor's P.O.V. )After Yvonne and I got back to her pack house, her mom showed me to the room I would be sleeping in. I noticed it was the furthest room from Yvonne’s.Well played Alpha Desperte. Very well played.Anyways, I take a little time to venture around the house before my mom and dad arrive.At the moment, I'm on the second floor. I'm guessing this is where the pack rooms are, because they all have names on the door. The third floor is where I'm at along with Sophie and her family.I hear sharp clicks coming from behind me and turn to see a girl about my age walking up to me.She flashes a smile and holds out her hand. "Hi, I'm Chloe." I shake her hand and her smile grows bigger, if possible. "Are you a new pack member? I haven't seen you around.""Oh, no-" she cuts me off."I'll show you around. It's really easy to get lost here." I shrug and decide to take her up on her offer."Sure." She links arms with me and starts to show me around. I feel weird having her this close
( Charlotte’s POV )Forgive maddox ?How can I forgive him?It doesn't feel right. I don't want to forgive and forget. I know that I'm not that type of person, yet why does my subconscious think that it's the right thing to do?I can't make him 'over-power' me, that's a sign of weakness.All these girls that shower over jealousy, have actually proved me wrong. I'm not that good, I know that on the inside I'm violent. I'm hard headed and unexplainable.I don't even understand why I'm still on the top. I don't deserve it.I've been self centered, and arrogant these past few weeks. I haven't done much of my school work (it's because I'm lazy). I've also pissed off the headmaster, twice.These past few weeks have been hard for me. After suspension was over, I was back to being the normal-little-duckling. But some things do change.He was there.Every time I walked to math, trigonometry, I see his gruffed face. He didn't smile, nor did he laugh every time Leo made a sexual jokes. He simply
"PUT ME DOWN OGRE!" I yell. "I'll punch your dick Maddox, and I'll tell you this! You won't be able to produce any of our children in your dreams!" I scream."Just shut up, or I'll drop you off a cliff." Maddoxsays.I snarl at him, "I'd like to see you try." I challenge.Maddox walks to his car, and puts me in the passenger seat. I push his arms and try to break free, but his hold on me is strong. He straps the belt on my body, and then takes a rope and ties it around my wrists."What the fudge are you fudging doing?!" I exclaim. "I swear, if you will not take this thing off of me, I will scream rape."Maddox takes packaging tape from the passenger compartment. He takes a long strip, and then tries to put it on my mouth."RAPE! RAPE! RA--" Maddox seals it on my mouth. "Finally," Maddox says. "Don't move, or else I'll tie your feet to the car."Not giving up, I kicked his crotch. "Aw! Fucking bitch!" He yells.I hop off of the car, and run. Maddox soon trails behind me.RUN FASTER YOU
( Yvonne's P.O.V. )So the hostility between mine and Connor's dads has not gone down at all. Although they have learned that they can't be outright hostile. Instead they've resorted to acts of the more passive aggressive sort. It's funny, actually, to watch two alphas hide their anger and dig at each other by means of nice insults."No wonder you never travel. Why travel when you have no reason to fear people's allegiance?"Connor's dad says to my father."Well, you see, I take it as the fact that I'm strong enough to keep enemies at bay. Seeing as you've so graciously asked me to help defend your lands before, I believe you understand what I mean."Connor and I decided to stop trying to break apart their ego fueled arguments a while back. Instead we took seats beside our mothers. We are currently Separated while our mothers are in an excited conversation about grandpups. "T'll have at least one very soon. My first child, Greyson, and his mate are pregnant." My mother says with a pr
( Yvonne's P.O.V. )It's pitch black all around me, and not even my tigress can see. I try to sit up, but a sharp pain stabs the back of my head. My hand immediately goes to the place it hurts, and I groan.A sliver of light comes into the room as a door opens, and there is that man. "Hullo." He has a huge smile on his face, he's probably a psycho. "Did you sleep well?" He grabs a chair from a wall and sets it about two feet away from me before sitting in it.I look him over with a perplexed look. "I didn't sleep. Your lackey punched me in the face and knocked me out." He nods his head at me."I am truly sorry about that, but you were a problem, and his orders were to get you here. You're here, so he is not in trouble." His face barely looks sad. If he's acting, it isn't good."Who are you? And why do you want me?" The man doesn't move, and his gaze seems to look through me. It's unnerving, and I begin to shift in my seat."My name isn't important." He waves a hand nonchalantly, but
( Sophia’s POV )No more! I am going to be turning eighteen soon and I will NOT allow myself to endure my family's abuse anymore!"We need to hurry, your brother is coming." My wolf, Krystle tells me.I quickly zip up my backpack and place the straps over my shoulders as I make my way to my bedroom window, that's located on the second floor. I sit on the ledge before jumping down and landing on my feet. As soon as I stand up, I overhear my father yelling out to everyone to find me and bring me back to him. Which I can't let that happen, I know how bad the punishment will be and I already have enough scars and bruises to last me a lifetime.Immediately I start running as fast as I can into the dark woods, without knowing or even caring where I'm going. I just need to get as far away from all of them as possible.Once I feel that I've gotten far enough ahead to stop and catch my breath for a moment, I stop and start trying to look around, hoping I can somewhat see a path. But then Kryst
2 YEARS LATER ( Epilogue)(Yvonne’s POV)My heart's beating fast, butterflies are going crazy all over my stomach. I try to breathe in and out a few times to try and calm my nerves. The anticipation is overwhelming as I prepare to take this momentous step in my life. Today is the day I marry the love of my life, Connor.I look at Lily, my bridesmaid, as she opens up the door and her eyes meet mine. A wave of excitement washes over her face, and she can't contain her joy as she closes the door behind her. She stands beside me, our eyes locked through the mirror reflection."Are you ready?" she asks, her voice filled with genuine enthusiasm."I think so," I reply, my voice betraying a hint of nervousness."You look beautiful," Lily reassures me, her sincerity shining through. "And trust me, Connor loves you. I guarantee he's gonna cry when you start walking down the aisle."Her words offer solace and encouragement. I take a deep breath, feeling a surge of confidence building within me.
A few years ago, I never would've expected to be walking towards the leaders of the world, and talk about my biggest secret. Now, I'm walking confidently down the corridor, ready to face the most prominent men and women across the world. I would've thought of this as terrifying all those years ago.Instead, I'm relieved. I no longer have to hide what I really am. So, as I walk into the crowded room, I don't cringe out of fear. No. I march in with confidence, and stand with all of my friends, ready to take the next step in my life.Out of the sea of faces, only one stands out to me, Edna. The second I stop walking, the room begins to kneel. It's like a wave, person after person, dropping to their knees. "Why is everyone bowing?" I ask Lily, who's to my left.She merely shrugs, just as confused as me. "I'm guessing they realize what you are, and are showing you that they don't question your claim nor title, but I'm not them."I stare at them as they bow. It's unnerving. "You don't have
Last night, I slept as peacefully as someone can when told they're the biological daughter of the goddess of the sun. It took no time to fall asleep, but my dreams were shrouded in images of Solis. A language I didn't understand drifted through my mind, and flames would burn it away. I didn't wake up too long ago, but I can tell by the lack of light seeping from behind the curtains, it's still very early.Connor is sleeping peacefully beside me, his soft snores are a sure sign he's still asleep. My body is snugly fit into his, and my head is resting on his chest.For some reason, I don't want to be awake alone, so I place a small kiss on his shoulder, then his left cheek, followed by his right. "Mmmmm." Connor shifts beneath me, groaning slightly as he stretches. His eyes open slowly and he smiles up at me. "Morning baby." Connor's arm wraps tighter around my waist pulling me closer. His eyes shut closed again and I snuggled into him. "Can't sleep?" I nod and he chuckles softly. "I w
As Connor suggested, I search for Lily and Desmond.I find them chatting in a corner, snuggled into each other.When Lily sees me, she smiles brightly. "Yvonne! Where's Connor?" She looks around and I chuckle."He's being Connor. He felt the need to check on my security with Hunter, so he sent me to come hang out with you two until he's done." Lily gives me a knowing smile."Connor just can't let up, even for one night? Who would attack you here? We're surrounded by the most powerful people in the world. Anyone crazy enough to come after you is suicidal." Desmond says, still not fully aware of the fact that I have died, and quite possibly can die again.I simply shake my head and sit down. Lily pats his shoulder and takes a seat beside me.Eventually Connor returns, but he's still tense."Everything alright?" I ask as I stand to greet him.He nods in a stiff manner. "Yes, but I don't feel as if it is." I lean up to kiss his cheek and force him to look at me with my hands."Let Hunter
**Recap**( Charlotte’s POV )I stared at my loose chains. I had finally got them loose and it took at least a half hour. I just hope they don't notice that it's loose.My hands are still burning from the silver but I had to bear with it. If I saw Broken Dean again I would immediately shift into my wolf and attack."I'm ready, are you?" I whispered."Yeah..." He trailed off silently.We both quietly waited for them to "supposedly" kill us. They're probably thinking of ways on how.The wait didn't take long. The goons entered our cell like they owned the place. They unlocked our chains from the locks on the wall and pushed us out with them holding onto our chains.They led us out in the field. There was a bon fire at the middle along with five people."You're going to enjoy your deaths. It's going to be so painful." The man said. He laughed, "No one will kill us after we're indestructible!""Shut up and bow down to our leader!"The people follow the yeller, all bowing down to Broken De
~~Dylan's POV~~ She's gone..... I can't believe she's really gone.I've been sitting on the floor, pressed into the hard wall with my head in my hands. Looking up, I see Cameron, pain etched on his face, sitting across from me in one of the hard, green chairs with the rest of our friends and family in the Hospital waiting room.All of us jump to our feet, when Mum and Dad come out of Olivia's room, tears streaming down both their faces. Father nods, singling that others can go in. We decided that Cameron should be the first one to go in, since he is Olivia's mate and he was eager to do so but he solemnly said that I should go in first since I'm her twin brother.I take in a deep breath and let it out, rubbing my hands on my jeans and pushing the thoughts to the back of my head.As I walk in through the door of her private room, I take another breath and turn the corner."Arrh, why don't they have anything decent on the TV and when's lunch, I'm hungry." I hear a female voice complain.
Olivia woke up to feel of little circles being drawn on her back and electricity running through her body where the fingers traced. Immediately she knew it was Cameron so she turned her face to look at him and saw that he was sitting up on his side, looking day at her as if she was the only person in the world.He couldn't believe that she was finally his in every way and neither could Olivia. They were each others world and nothing was going to break them apart."Morning Cam," Olivia greeted in a sleepy voice."Morning love. How are you feeling?" He asked as his fingers continued to dance around her back."Good. Amazing actually." Olivia said as her face lit up when she remembered what happened last night and blush covered her cheeks.They looked each other in the eye and started leaning in, before their lips touched Cameron whispered "I love you""Ditto," Olivia replied and their lips met cause instant fireworks.Cameron pulled her closed and the deepened thekiss.5 minutes later a
It's been weeks since word got around about Olivia's sister still being alive and It's all everyone talks about. Apart from that, there has been more sightings of rogues, no ones dies but they have received some message saying things like 'we're watching you' and 'tick-tick-tick, times running out'. But the biggest one was a dozen black Olivias delivered to Olivia with a note attached saying 'you thought your sister had it worse, still does but just you wait till we get our hands on you". That was the last straw for everyone, school was cancelled and instead we are made to train and fight for 8 hours a day. Cameron has practically moved into Olivia's room saying that he needed to be always with her and Headmaster Dean has allowed it.It's no joke... Straight after the flowers were delivered to Olivia, Cameron went to Headmaster Dean's office, told him about the Olivias and note, then said he would be moving into Olivia's room after their talk and Headmaster Dean's reply was......"oka
