Ethereal inkSo what do you all think? Does he deserve immediate forgiveness? or should he get a taste of the cruelty he loves to dish out?

ALPHA GAVRAEL HIS OFFER
ADAIRA~“I know I messed up, Adaira. Believe me, I do. I realise it now. Saying sorry will never make up for all my wrong doings, so please, let me show you how much I regret my actions. Don’t give up on me now, I need you. Give me a second chance.” He said.“That sounds like an order.”“It isn’t. Please, Ira, will you give me a second chance?” He asked.For several seconds after we had this exchange, I was silent. I just stared at him while he stayed waiting for my reply. It was a bit cruel to keep him hanging that way but it was nowhere near what he has done to me so far so I felt no guilt for it. No matter what, even if he saved me, I don't owe him any sympathy, I don't even owe him a reply."I'm starving." I simply said as I got off the bed."I'll send a message and have food delivered to you here." He said but I shook my head."No. I'm tired of staying here. I want to stretch my legs a bit. It should be around dinner time now. After taking a shower, I'll join the others to prepa
ALPHA GAVRAEL BRIEF BATHROOM TRYST
ADAIRA~“Try me, Adaira. Think of anything you know will hurt me. I will take it if that’s what will convince you fully that I’m ready to do this. Yes, change may not always be slow, you made your point, but this particular change, I don’t know how to do it. I could ravage an entire pack in minutes, snap someone’s neck in less than a second, yes, because it’s what I know how to do. But I don’t know how to be… nice. It’s not in my nature. Or maybe it was, but you have to understand, I’ve had centuries to nurture my anger and grow it. It is all I’ve known for that long, it’s not easy to just let it go, but I’m willing to do so… for you.”Truth be told, the idea of making him do something he would hate was even more tempting right now. A good mate would forgive him immediately. But I’ve been the good mate for so long, maybe it’s time to switch roles for a bit, at least before he wears down my resilience* with his pleas. He was probably thinking I would give him something physical like m
ALPHA GAVRAEL WHAT HAPPENED TO TAMIKA
ADAIRA ~ “Whoa, take it easy. You’re eating like you haven’t had a meal in days.” Ethelle said as she came into the kitchen to pick more trays of food to continue serving in the hall. My mouth was filled with food so I couldn’t reply to her, I just kept chewing. Shifters usually consumed way more food than humans because of our faster metabolism, but I was eating more than usual. For some reason, I felt ravenous. Maybe because, yet again, I was close to death. But I had quite a lot to eat before sleeping, though to be fair, I slept for so long. “I know you said you would tell us what happened, but from how much you're eating, I’m guessing he locked you somewhere without food since you disappeared. How cruel.” Gaby said. I still couldn’t speak since I was still chewing so I just shook my head to indicate that he actually hadn’t locked me up. My capture was his fault in a way, but not because he kept me confined in a cell like she was thinking. They all came and went so many times
ALPHA GAVRAEL GETTING HIM INVOLVED
ADAIRA ~ “It’s just you and me now. Tell me what happened. For these scars to still be here it means that when you were wounded, they were deeper than skin level. I need the truth.” I stayed silent after telling her this and stared at her, giving her time to speak, to be able to tell me the truth. Instead, she began to cry. I brought her closer and stroked her hair while she did so. "I… I don't want to cause you any trouble. Please j.just forget about it." She said when her sobs reduced. "No. Something is wrong, and I need to know what that is. Don't bother trying to convince me otherwise. And our time alone is almost up. You decide if you want this to remain between us or if you want others involved as well." I said to her and she stared at me with wide eyes. "No, don't. No one else must know." She said. "Then tell me." "First, promise me you won't tell anybody what I tell you." She said with earnest* eyes. "I can't make a promise without knowing details. It's a rule of mine.
ALPHA GAVRAEL ESCAPE ATTEMPT
ADAIRA~“Who did this to you?”For several seconds, Tamika could not answer Gavrael’s question. She was too terrified that he was speaking to him, the same way most in my pack were afraid of him. She just stared at the ground near his feet because she was unable to look up at him.“Speak. No harm will come to you as long as you tell the truth, I promise.” He reassured her and she looked at me.She didn’t trust him to keep his word, and why would she? He has been nothing but cruel to them since he took over. And I just broke my promise to her to not tell anyone else about this. But this matter wasn’t something to conceal, it needed to be addressed immediately.“He will not harm you while I am here.” I said to her.She could believe my word on this because she knew that if Gavrael tried to do anything to her, I would protect her even if I needed to use my own body as a shield. That gave her the courage to speak. But before she did, one of Gavrael’s head warriors that was seated at the
ALPHA GAVRAEL SCUFFLE II
GAVRAEL~“Try me, Adaira. Think of anything you know will hurt me. I will take it if that’s what will convince you fully that I’m ready to do this. Yes, change may not always be slow, you made your point, but this particular change, I don’t know how to do it. I could ravage an entire pack in minutes, snap someone’s neck in less than a second, yes, because it’s what I know how to do. But I don’t know how to be nice. It’s not in my nature. Or maybe it was, but you have to understand, I’ve had centuries to nurture my anger and grow it. It is all I’ve known for that long, it’s not easy to just let it go, but I’m willing to do so for you.” I said as I tried to convince her to give me a second chance.She kept pushing me away, insisting that she was done with me. I refused to believe it. I could see in her eyes that she was contemplating my words. It may not be in her nature to be vengeful and vindictive, but the idea of getting back at me, making me earn her forgiveness the hard way, was
ALPHA GAVRAEL FIGHTING KRAINE
ADAIRA~I stared at the brown wolf snaring at me and all I felt was anger. I haven’t felt this level of anger in a while and if I really think about it, I’ll realise that I wasn’t just angry at this male for hurting Tamika. What made my anger more potent was the fact that this situation reminded me of my own. It hurts worse when a mate that's supposed to love and care for you, be your shield against the world, ends up being the one to cause you pain and allow others to do the same to you. Tamika doesn’t deserve that and this male does not deserve her. I was thankful that he hadn’t marked her yet, that way, she could reject him. She’s young, there’s still time for her to find a better male to mate. Even if she doesn’t get another fated mate, she can find a good chosen mate to bond with. I’m sure there are males in the pack that would do anything to make her theirs and would treat her right. With Gavrael’s mark on me and mine on him, there was no such hope for me. I'm stuck with him fo
ALPHA GAVRAEL UNEXPECTED KISS
GAVRAEL~I watched every parry and strike with a little bit of fear. After being away from her for days after her capture, seeing the state she was in when I found her and the fact that I knew quite well that she hadn’t fully regained her strength, I couldn’t help but worry. From watching them, I knew what Kraine was trying to do, he was trying to use his bigger size to trip her so her vulnerable underbelly would be exposed to his claws and he could take her out. But she was smart, a seasoned warrior despite my apprehension, so she also knew that was what her opponent was trying to do.I could also guess what her own tactic was. Kraine had a barely noticeable limp from an injury he sustained before I found them all and made them a pack. Adaira noticed it of course, even when most others wouldn’t have, she was just too observant. Back then he had been nothing more than a mindless beast that lost touch with the rational human half of his soul. He must have sustained a twisted or broken
