What do you guys think of the story so far?
I will admit I regretted returning to Nioz, and no, it wasn’t because of Miall but because of Nyleve!“Sit up straight,” she scolded again for the third time today. Yes, that’s right. I was training to become a Luna, and I hated it! I had only eaten twice today, and it was only 11 a.m. I am starving!We were currently at a women-only gathering, and they were extremely saucy stories. Who would've thought even mates would complain so much about their partners? According to earth books, I used to think wolves were insatiable, but here we were, these women saying their men weren't performing in bed anymore, girl!How sad, really. It was not as if I was any better 'cause I had been very celibate since I got here, and it seemed I would be until the end of time.I had been celibate even when I was at home, but since I got a taste of Miall, I wanted more.They weren’t only talking about things under the sheets and how much more authoritative roles they wanted in the community. I wholeheartedly
I sat in Miall’s office, watching him as he worked. He looked so serious and sexy that it was a real mission to sit here and watch him. How he did that effortlessly was a mystery; perhaps I shouldn't have moved in.It had been just a few days since I moved back into his house. Of course, he didn’t like that, but I didn’t care, and Nyleve agreed wholeheartedly with me that if we were getting married, we should pretend to be in love as if we couldn't get our hands off each other.No hands were involved in anything.I will admit, even though things were quiet between us and he tried as hard as he could to avoid me, I enjoyed it. It was amusing and addicting to just pop up around him when he least expected it; his reactions were amazing.For someone begging me for my forgiveness just weeks ago, he had changed quickly when he started avoiding me.I guess I hadn't fully forgiven him yet, but I wasn’t harbouring any grudges against him any more; I enjoyed his presence…whether he was fully her
This was getting tiring. I felt so restless, and my heart kept beating violently against my chest. Tossing the blankets off my body, I groaned as I stomped my way into his bedroom.I had a lot to get off my chest!He laid on his back with one arm underneath his head as he stared up silently; what was he thinking about so hard? How his girlfriend cursed and told him to leave her alone?Aha, that was sad, but I didn't care!“What’s wrong?” He uttered so quietly that I almost didn’t get it. Have I annoyed him already? “No, you haven’t,” he said, looking at me, and I froze in my stance. My belly swelled warmly when our eyes met, and I felt nervous. Ooh butterflies.“Well, it wouldn’t matter either way,” I lied, knowing damn well he knew that I cared. “Are you mad?” I asked, crossing my arms.“At what?”“That I told you not to go after your girlfriend, and she told you to leave her alone,” I tried to sound sincere, but I wasn’t about to offer him the opportunity to say he was mad at me.It
Comfortable beds were the place to be. Even though I was scared to fall asleep in his bedroom, I managed just fine.The warmth from his smooth sheets and the way they held on to my skin in a warm embrace made me yearn for a lover, but I had the best sleep because of the climax I had last night. But I could feel something digging into my thigh.I squinted as I got up; my eyes slowly looked underneath my body, and I found Miall sleeping comfortably there.In shock and wanting, I slapped him across the face and screamed. He opened one eye, annoyed yet unaffected. I knew my physical assaults on him never had an effect, but the least he could do was pretend to be hurt.I covered my breasts and said, "What are you doing here, underneath me!?""What?" He mumbled sleepily, and my heart fluttered, so he was not fully awake. I slapped him again, and he turned his face, gladly giving me the other cheek. I was so close to slapping him again when he caught my hand and pressed his lips against it. "
MiallThe training field was the centre of all peace. For once in a long time, I felt as if I wasn't confused and knew exactly what it was that I wanted to do.And not be hated for it...It was as if everything had disappeared, and being alpha or Miall didn't matter; being alive felt easier. The smell of the earth that wafted through my nose, the fields of green that went on for yards, gave me a wind of serenity.However, it was hard not to shift during this kind of training. Everything would have been easier and quicker if I had shifted, but the whole purpose of this training was to see how long we could hold out on shifting. Malakhi wasn't making it easy.Yes, I was alpha and could hold my ground, but Malakhi was very competitive when it came to such things, and Amanah cheering him on right now instead of me wasn't helping.One would've thought that she would be here to support me after her proposal just a few days ago, but no. She loved being the bane of my existence—she enjoyed it.
AmanahI sat on the couch and stared up at the ceiling, bored out of my mind. Miall's place sucked! The only form of entertainment here was the television, and his pack members rarely dropped by.However, when they did, they always came with food, and as much as I would beg them to stay and have some tea, they would tell me they had other engagements to get to.Miall wasn't much fun, either."I'm going to take a shower, okay?" I nodded and watched as he disappeared upstairs. I'm hungry.I made a plate of food, sat in the living room, and watched my favourite drama. I swear this right here was my dopamine, and I just couldn't wait to see if Theo would apologise to Xania.It was a rom-com about a CEO who fell in love with one of his subordinates. Xania was a thief, and she stole from the wrong person; plenty of stuff happened, and she had to work with Theo.The show was slowly reaching its climax, and honestly, I was anxious about it.The people here were such great writers, and their sh
Ever since I loudly confessed to Miall how much I wanted him, I was ashamed to admit that I had been avoiding him for quite some time now.Yes, I did talk to him, but I could never be in the same space with him for too long. I always just felt as if he would bring it up and just reject me again.That was why it was better for me to self-reject; that way, I would avoid any type of hurt that may come from him, and I would be just okay.I should really stop being so confident because then I go around talking shit about how I was obsessed with him.How embarrassing!He probably thought my life revolved around him. In all honesty, it did, but I didn't need him to know to what extent.I looked up at the clock on the wall, and he wasn't up yet. Another strategy of mine when it came to avoiding Miall was waiting for him to go to his training sessions or sometimes meetings with his mom.Now that I was in training to become Luna and half of all of my time I was with Nyleve, I had some sort of kn
Thirty hours and twenty-five minutes. That was how long it had been since Miall fell asleep, and in those hours, I had only slept for five in total.It was probably not my place to be right here next to him, but I couldn't help worrying or wanting to take the pain from him, which was stupid of me.I had only known him for four months, and that one night, and I have grown to care for him so much.Despite all the angst he had put me through, I was putting it all aside because it hurt to see him like this.Lying in bed, unconscious.At first, he was always thrashing in pain, and Nyleve tried to get me away from him, but I couldn't handle it.How foolish of me. What can a human girl do, really? There wasn't much I could do to take his pain away, but I still wanted to be here, close to him.This was the only way I could comfort him.I sat on the chair across his bed, supporting my head against my unwounded hand. My left hand rested on my lap as I watched him breathe. I patiently waited for
