Winston's POV

I could already tell Angelina was giddy just by looking at her.

I could also tell she had something to say and for what I consider to be a very odd moment in my life, I realized that I actually did not have the time to keep on playing the game we had been playing over the past few days.

I would have loved to call it hide and seek but it was more like hide and I have no time to seek. I simply didn't have the time to seek her out.

After the kiss she had given me that night, she had been avoiding me like the plague.

I couldn't wrap my head around what the problem could possibly be. I had asked her for permission, I had asked her nicely too, she had given me consent and she let me kiss her. She even kissed me back for one quick minute before she smiled at me and left, and that had been it.

I saw that she didn't want us to go farther than that and I accepted that for what it was.

I walked her off to her door so why the sudden cold treatment?

She was standing at my door, wring

    Angelina's POVWhat the hell was I doing?What in fuck's name was I doing?Winston was sitting in his chair, looking directly into my eyes with more questions than I had the answers to. I could hear the way his breath sort of hitched at the proximity between us.We were very close.Very very close.My hair had practically become a blanket around the both of us. No, not a blanket, a curtain, shielding us from the outside world and giving me full access to Winston's eyes.I could see them sparkling.Like a wonder of creation.Something hummed between us, I could sense it clearly now.Like a small song both our hearts were singing, or maybe it was just my heart that was singing the song, I don't know.I could tell he felt something for me too, he had always been clear about it.Well okay maybe sometimes he was less than clear about it, but when we are together like this, all the other details simply fade into the background.I could see the planes of his face, that small lift at the corn

    Angelina's POVWinston had to send me out.I sighed into my pillow and wondered why I even went to his office in the first place. Heaven knows it would have been better not going there at all.But what was that anyway?That pull we obviously both felt for each other.Ella walked into my room with a smile on her face but that smile fell the moment her eyes landed on mine.Seems I have been cursed to ruin everyone's mood today . I didn't even want to think of how I would tell her of what had happened between me and Winston.She was the one that has been with me these past few days and she was the only one who knows that I sort of develop a strange fever whenever I don't see Winston.Urgh. Seems I won't have to totally rule out the possibility of them being witches, they might as well be for me to suddenly develop a fever whenever I don't see their leader.Maybe Winston was the one with the forbidden magical powers.He probably had a small shrine or coven somewhere around, that was prob

    Angelina's POVWinston had left his office by the time I came back.Or maybe he just decided to lock me out of his office while he went somewhere else and did something else. I would have at least told him to be safe if he was going out, but obviously that didn't matter and my well wishes weren't needed."He just stepped out now."The voice that suddenly emanated behind me made me jump in fright and I looked back to see Marco, his eyes almost as kind as someone else's that I know and an amused smile on his lips.I let out a relieved sigh."You scared me."He chuckled at that and wore an accurately amused but sorry look on his face."Hope I didn't scare you too much?"I shook my head and smiled softly."Not too much."He nodded at that and the awkward silence set in.Marco was smiling and I couldn't tell if I was to simply smile back or hightail it back to my room.I felt stuck for one."Were you here for something, though? Anything you want to ask him or get?"For a split second I act

    Winston's POVThe house of the pack elder was in the deep recesses of the forest. She always preferred that to staying with people and since she lived to be as old as she was, no one really ever saw the need to question her.I didn't need anyone to tell me twice that I needed her help.I almost gave way to my wolf while I was in the office with Angelina.That was bad. That was really bad.The wolf is the animal manifestation of every werewolf. Sometimes it threatens to take over and sometimes we lose control and subconsciously let it. The latter only happens in extreme scenarios, like a group assault or at the sight of a loved one in mortal danger.The wolf is unpredictable, and with that being said it could do something no one really expected it to, like kill Angelina because of the crime her father had committed.I almost lost control of it.It could have killed her.She would have been freaked out and tried to run and that would have just worsened matters. I stopped and kicked a

    Angelina's POVI was done clearing up Winston's work space by the time Marco had concluded his search and he looked sullen and disappointed.I didn't want to ask about the look on his face because then there was every possibility that he would tell me what he had been here to look for in the first place, and then I would want us to find it so I could use that to satisfy my conscience and get that feeling of fulfillment that came with paying someone back for the help they would soon offer you."All done?" I asked, looking at him and he nodded his head."I couldn't find what I was looking for anyways so I'm guessing I just wasted your time."I simply shook my head at that and didn't give him a verbal answer.Marco stared at my lips and had a lost look on his face.My cheeks heated up and when his eyes finally met mine, he chuckled in the crackly tone that always manages to send goosebumps up the ridge of my spine.He looked tired, and weak."Sorry for staring at you."I simply shook my

    Winston's POVTatiana only looked at me for a long while before she gave me an answer, and even when she gave me an answer I couldn't understand half of what she was saying.Literally.She always chose to confuse me rather than help me with whatever I might need and that's one of the reasons I always hated coming to see her."If you hate coming to see me so much then maybe you shouldn't have so many problems.""I don't have that many problems, just this one you have managed to confuse me further on."I could tell that I sounded pissed and I also sounded snappy, like I didn't have the patience for all this and that was accurate.I didn't have the time for all of this and I would not go through another lesson on "Do you know why the sky is green, Alpha? Or why do the fishes in the sea glow purple in the dead of night?"I sighed.I could tell I was annoyed. She could probably tell that too because she had stopped talking and she simply looked at me."You're frustrated, Alpha? Care to tel

    Winston's POVI left Tatiana's hut after that and calmed the wolf pacing restlessly in my head.He's been inconsolable after the death of Christine.My mate and his.He had been the one to even feel the attraction to her in the first place.I had held out on admitting I also felt something for six months, until the pressure was unbearable and I had to transform and go find her.Christine's wolf had smooth and silky red fur.Fur that shone like blood in the night and her wolf had been a marvel to see in action.My Christine had been as fierce as she was gentle and she was beautiful.Both as a human and as a wolf.Christine was mine the same way I was hers.Christine had been my mate, chosen for me by the moon goddess herself and the moon goddess had been right.She had been perfect for me.She had also been taken from me.I had to avenge her death.I had to make sure that she didn't die in vain and I had to do what she would have wanted me to do.But what was that?What did she want me

    Angelina's POVI could tell Winston didn't believe me.It was written all over his face.The rain had caught the both of us while we were on our way back to the manor. Marco should have been long gone by the time we came back anyways but something still made me feel Winston knew he had been with me.Marco had known he was coming while he had still been a good distance away from us. I didn't want to begin thinking of how that was possible, it would just make me feel bad again and I couldn't afford to start feeling guilty at this moment.Winston was right next to me.He would probably feel whatever it is I was trying to hide and that really baffled me.I could tell he knew I was lying, the same way he could tell I was lying.He didn't really say anything to me about it though so I simply ignored that fact and moved on to coming back home with him, but the look on his face right now though."Where have you been?"I whipped my head around to see Ella standing there.She had a frown on her

    Winston's POVAngelina slept for five days.In the space of those days, we had her father and her friend buried.I quite liked Leslie, she seemed to know a bit more about werewolves than her friend did, and if all Angelina had told me about her was true, then she would have loved to see the wolves herself.She would have loved to see us transform and she would have loved to see us run. She would have wanted to see the borders and she would have loved to see where the sea went to.She would have loved to know about the creatures she read so much about, but she didn't get the chance to.I still couldn't understand how Marco had managed to get to them so quickly. Angelina had said they would take one of the secret passageways Ella had shown her.Only the omegas knew of those passages, and seeing as one of them attacked me, I would say one of them had been in league with Marco too.After I had led the wolves on the run, I came back to meet Angelina passed out on the floor, her father dead

  • ALPHA'S CAGED BRIDE   CHAPTER 120

    Angelina's POVFather and I were more or less forgotten outside for the night.We heard the wolves had their run in the woods and we heard the distinctive howl of the biggest one. Like a lead singer who directed the voice of all the others.My father and I watched as the body of the witch caught fire as soon as the rays of the moon touched it.I could almost hear screams coming out from those flames, and I would have felt pity for the soul that was being extinguished, but I knew all the things she had done.I was aware of how she had deprived another woman of the joy of having kids and I knew of how she had practiced her infernal magic in a wolf pack for almost two hundred years.Her magic was what kept her alive. Her magic was what made the pack remain so low in population and her magic was what gave her the power to forge alliances with people like Marco and continue their streak of evil.Her magic wasn't needed anymore. The world was better off without it.I turned my head to see m

    Angelina's POVMarco was winning.I could see what he was planning to do. Winston probably wasn't aware of the amount of damage that had been done to his wolf, but it was a lot.Winston's wolf wasn't looking good, it wasn't in good shape.I couldn't speak to him anymore. We couldn't talk to each other lest I distract him, but if I could I would have told him to take some time to just circle Marco so he could heal up a bit.The despair had already started to set in and my thoughts had become dark. I was already considering death and what it would be like to be dead.This had to be the most awful thing to ever happen to me in the history of awful. To think that I had happiness at my fingertips, only for me to see it being yanked away from me by some evil guy and his disgusting witch lover.People would do anything for power and Marco was a clear example of that.I couldn't die though.If I died the baby I carried in me would die too and that would bring an end to Winston and his lineag

    Winston's POVI felt the bond pull at me the moment Angelina did whatever it was she did.I saw Marco shrink and bare his teeth at me, the light in his eyes glowing violently and a crazed look appearing on his face.I howled and launched myself at him.The wind rippled around us and with it came the leaves of the forest. I felt them set the bounds of our battle.The duel was on.Marco launched himself at me with speed and precision, an attack of teeth and claws and his eyes giving off that aura of danger and confusion.Werewolves didn't feel things the way people did, we were connected to nature in a way no other creature could be and we felt things a lot stronger than any other creature.So when Marco placed his eyes on me and attacked, the dark magic that fueled that glow in his eyes made me falter.Marco struck with aim and precision, going straight for my hind legs and slashing for my throat.I dodged his slash but I felt his teeth sink into my hands.I howled and gave in to the w

    Angelina's POVThe rules for the duel were simple.Well, it wasn't really simple, but it was our best shot at this.No matter what happened, I wouldn't be losing Winston anytime soon.When an Alpha challenged another Alpha to a duel, the power that ran through the forest, the same power that made them Alpha would listen, and the moment the other Alpha agreed to the duel, it would be sealed and locked in place.Anyone who defected or violated the rules of the duel would have the magic of the realm to contend with, and that was exactly what Winston was planning on.Marco wasn't a true Alpha, but for now, he was. I had to explain that to Winston last night. He said he had heard me all through the night. He had heard my bones cracking and he had heard my screams. He said he had smelt me too.I still couldn't figure out how that happened or exactly what had happened.I also didn't understand why I heard the word Mate in my head but that wasn't the issue at the moment.The wolves returned

I hadn't been expecting anything else.How did two shackled people, two chained and shackled people manage to get out of their chains and out of their cells? How could that have happened?Well, I could think of one way. One solid way that would leave me so annoyed if I found out it was true.I looked at the door as it came open and she walked in.She didn't look scared of me, at least not anymore. Siblings had to stick together after all and she was my sister. I had always thought she was my mate, but we had both known that wasn't true. "Did you let Angelina out yesterday?"She shook her head and I took a whiff of the air. She wasn't lying. I could feel a lot of things coming off her though. Like fear, desire, and maybe remorse.Was she starting to feel guilty now? Because of a human?I chuckled at that and gestured for her to

The same way he could feel me in his and neither of us said a word. We simply sat there. feeling each other through the bond but not saying anything. I could tell Winston wanted to say something to me though.I knew he wanted to.But he didn't, and so we both sat in silence, so close to each other but yet so far away. Two thick walls separated me from him.Leslie's death was making me feel things I didn't want to feel.I heard the creak of the door as it came open and soon I was no longer alone.Ella was with me. In one of my dresses and with that sickly green look in her eyes. The light illuminated the sneer on her face and an identical sneer was on mine."Come to gloat?"Ella only chuckled and walked closer to me. I had my hands and feet in chains and I couldn't move. The slap she gave me was crisp and loud.It stung.My head whipped to the si

My best friend was dead.Face down on the floor and unmoving, I could see the blood seeping into the shirt she had worn.Leslie was dead.Why?Why did he kill her?I could barely register the voices that were speaking in the room. I knew that Winston and Marco were talking, and I knew Marco was asking for something that could never be his, but I didn't care about all of that.The only thing I cared about at the moment was the person who lay on the floor. My best friend had been alive a few moments ago but was no longer alive now.Why did I bring her here? Just for her to meet an untimely death? No. I wouldn't have offered to bring her with me if I knew she would end up being killed. We had been captured because of my short-sightedness. I thought no one else would be using the servant pass

Alpha of the werewolves, and protector of the realm.I scoffed.Angelina stood beside me, bound in rope and mumbling words that weren't actually words.Winston was too predictable. Angelina even more so.I knew she would try to use the secret entrance into the manor, and I knew she would try to use the one the maid had shown to her.But what I didn't know was that she would bring yet another human with her, into werewolf territory and the werewolf world.I could feel anger pulsing through me at the thought of that and I smirked as I leveled my gaze at him. His eyes still had that faint glint of gold in them.The gleam confirmed to me that he had been the one who opened the barrier.I was worried that I had been sidelined by the witch. I wouldn't put it past the two-hundred-year-old crones to actually have some trick up her sleeve that would give her the power to do that.We had trust issue
