She hears screams all around her, she could smell the metallic scent of blood thick in the air. Chills run up and down her whole body, she tentatively takes a small step forward only to halt in her steps when her feet unknowingly steps on a solid but firm thing. Is that..is that a hand? She slowly crouches down and bring her trembling hands forward...only to come in contact with a person's face, she screams as she realises that it's a dead body.
She startles awake from her sleep, sitting upright on her bed, as she takes deep breaths in, she could feel a thin layer of sweat on her forehead and wetness present on the side of her eyes.
She realises that it was just a nightmare and that it was not real, but it sure felt like it, she felt scared of what nightmare she would have again if she slept so decides to walk around, it sounded stupid as it is the middle of the night but at a time like this she would do anything to forget about that day.
feeling her hands around the nightstand she tries to locate her water bottle but she comes up empty, sighing in annoyance remembering that she had forgot to take it with her after filling it up in the kitchen. Standing up from her seated position, she decides to pick it up from the kitchen since her throat felt like a sandpaper.
As she reaches the kitchen, she quickly locates her water bottle. Picking it up almost immediately, she unscrew the cap and brings it up to her lips. Since she was in a hurry to quench her thirst she failed to notice a presence behind her until their front was completely pressed upto her behind, making her completely aware of their presence.
Hands circle around her waist in a tighthold, but not enough to crush her. She's immediately engulfed with the scent of vanilla and immediately realise who it is. why does it has to be always him?.
Adryan couldn't sleep when all he could hear were was her fast heart beats, he could hear her move around in her room. His curiosity rose when he heard her leave her room. What was she going to do so late at night?!.
"You shouldn't be out here alone at night,
la mia gemma" his husky voice sounds near her ear, she could feel his heavy breathing on the back of her neck which made goosebumps to form on her body, standing straight with anticipation."Why? It's not like a beast resides here" she couldn't resist asking him the reason behind his words. what is going to happen if she comes down at this time of the night? It's not like she was outside the pack house or out in the wild or anything. (Translation: my gem)
Trailing a hand up her sides slowly making a shiver to run down her spine, he moves the strands of hair away from her shoulder, she feels the cold air hit the side of her bare neck. making her heartbeat rise in anticipation and excitement.
She feels a soft feathery touch on her neck almost making her moan outloud, he just kissed her on her most sensitive spot. The skin between her neck and shoulder, where his mark should've been. His lips felt so soft on her skin making her wish that she could feel them on her lips.
One of his hands trails down towards her bare thighs, she had decided to wear a baggy t-shirt and cotton shorts on, which barely covered her legs but the t-shirt did it's work.
Now though, she regretted not wearing a sweatpant. She could feel herself getting excited, she has never felt something like this her whole life. His hands slowly rub themselves softy on her skin, making her sigh is pleasure and lean her head on his shoulder.
"Maybe the beast does reside inside, you never know" he whispers near her ear, once again being successful in sending a shiver down her spine.
▪
She spend most of the day holed up in her room, doing nothing. If she wasn't doing anything then her mind would wander back to her interaction with Adryan, which is something she didn't want if she wanted her sanity to stay intact.
She was going out of her mind due to boredom. So she decided that should help the omega's with preparing the lunch for the pack, since she loved cooking and had already learned every nook and cranny of the pack house with Violet's guidance ofcourse, she could easily manuever her way through the kitchen.
She leaves her bedroom and takes cautious steps while moving down the staircase, the last thing she wanted to do is break a leg or her spinal cord.
She sighs in pleasure when she smelt the aroma of all the spices in the air, and she knew that was in the right place, the pack kitchen. She slowly moves towards the direction from where the aroma was coming, she could feel a presence infront of her, she immediately switches her eyes to that of her wolf's.
Even herwolf's eyesight wasn't clear, it was hazy. She could make out the outline of certain objects and the color of it, which mostly appears blurred to her.
She never used her wolf's eyes much before, since she didn't want to rely on her wolf all her life and she has been also told by her parents that her eyes glowed green whenever she used her wolf's vision.
She could feel the power surging through her as she used her wolf's eye, she finds a girl who seemed like she looked about the age of nineteen, with brunette hair and blue eyes. She switches her vision back to normal within a timespan of few seconds.
She slowly moves towards the brunette haired girl, hoping she would assist her on what she could help them with.
"Umm...hi, my name is Jade. I was wondering if I could help you guys with cooking the lunch for the pack members today?" She asks her hesitantly waiting for the brunettes reply.
"Oh, hey there Jade! I'm Malia and you must be the ro-" Malia clears her throat in between her words,"Alpha's guest he talked about the other day about that at the meeting. I really don't want to trouble you with the work, and we're almost finished with the main course-" Malia says.
"Perfect, then I can help you with the Dessert?" Jade instantly says interrupting Malia's nervous rant with a hopeful tone of voice.
"I- but the Al, I- um.." Malia sounded like she was conflicted and Jade almost lost hope, but she might have seen the crestfallen look on Jade's face causing her to immediately switches her answer.
"Thankyou so much Malia" Jade smiles at her.
"Geez, don't ever show me that face again. I felt like I kicked a cute little puppy which sounds like it would hurt me more than the puppy itself." She says which causes Jade to laugh at her choice of words.
Jade takes a few step towards the side only to collide with another body, a familiar flowery scent invades her nostrils.
She need to stop walking into others literally, she think to myself.
"Watch where you're going you blind bitch"
A voice snaps at Jade."Watch where you're going you blind bitch." A voice snaps at Jade."I'm sorry" Jade apologizes to her, wanting to get this over with, not liking her presence and attitude at all. Something inside Jade kept telling her that she was trouble."Sorry?" the same voice snorts, Jade could feel the she-wolf move towards where she stood. She stood so close to Jade that she could smell her flowery scent directly under her nose. Her voice made Jade cringe inwardly, it was high pitched and nasally. Hurting Jade's ears and head equally."Listen here you-" she starts to say but gets cut-off by someone else speaking up. Their deep voice making Jade's heart to beat fast in her chest."Lucia" The scent of vanilla engulf
"There you go" Violet finally speaks up. Jade had asked for Violet's help for getting ready for her date with Nate since Jade never had to get ready for an occasion like this before in her life.Violet was hesitant and worried at first to help Jade, she didn't know what her Alpha would do when he came to know about his mate going out on a date with another man. Surely, he'll be livid. No one wanted to seeAdryan angry, he was a whole different person when his wolf took control. Their pack hadn't been labeled the strongest pack in the world without a reason.Violet had picked out a maroon colored wrap dress for Jade. She didn't want to go overboard and dress Jade in something she wasn't comfortable wearing. She brushed Jades long strawberry blonde hair, leaving it open. She had painted Jade's lip a light pink with a bit of mascara and she was done. Jade was a natural beauty so she didn't
mature content Upon getting back to her room after her date with Nate, who had insisted on walking her towards her room to which she had politely declined his offer, she halts in her footsteps when she catches a familiar scent. The scent of vanilla was all around her. Was he in her room when she was out with Nate?. Dismissing the thought quickly, she removes her clothes. Wanting to take a shower and lay on her cozy bed since she was tired, it was almost midnight. Her and Nate had spend so much time together that both of them hadn't been keeping track of time untill the waitress had politely asked them to leave since the diner was closing for the day.
He slams his lips onto her soft ones not able to hold himself back anymore, making her gasp again with surprise. She was frozen at first trying to fight off his touch, pushing at his chest with the palms of her hand but eventually felt her body give into the desire. Their lips moved against each other with urgency, his lips molded perfectly against hers. "così bello" he breaths out after a few moments of kissing her. His lips trail down her neck, her hands bury themselves in his soft hair, her fingers tangled in his hair.(Translation : so beautiful) He groans out in pleasure, when he feels her finger nails scrap along his scalp. His hands roam around her skin greedily.
The men watched from behind the glass as the scientists worked on their latest project, well they'd been at it for almost a decade, but things didn't seem to go their way until recently where they found some new materials that were useful for their research and helped to continue running their tests until they succeeded. These people working behind the glass weren't any normal scientists, they were medical students who were studying medicine or researching with big companies on things but either got kicked out or exiled due to their malpractices that included testing on live animals and humans, werewolves and any supernatural they could get their grubby hands on. It wasn't until later, the current organization they worked for scouted them out for the research they were currently working on almost ten years ago, since then they have been at
Adryan was sitting in his office when he had smelled her scent, the scent of strawberries overpowered his strong wolf senses. It was coming from the direction of the hallway. Violet had asked Jade to meet her in her room, which was a floor below the one Jade was currently staying in. Her mind wandered towards Adryan unconsciously, she hadn't realized that she was thinking about him. Just as she was about to take a step forward, a hands shoots out of nowhere, circling around her waist as they pulled her towards their chest. Tingles rose all around both of their body as their skins came in contact with each other. Jade was too surprised to react at first. “Wha-” she speaks up but gets cut off by Adryan's loud voice. &
The day of the Mating Ball seemed to arrive sooner than Jade had initially thought. She could feel the shift in the air around her. Excitement and anticipation lingered in the air as the pack members prepared for the Mate Ball. For the past three days, She could feel them rushing back and forth, carrying decorations and props needed for decorating the Ballroom for today's event. Their excitement was contagious as she herself felt excited about the event, maybe it's because she had never been able to attend the event ever before in all her twenty years of existence. It was a full moon today, with the moon at its peak, brighter and more visible than ever in the sky. The shimmer
"Well fuck me, I'd like to tap that ass someday" Alpha Connor speaks up suddenly from his seated position on the bar, along with the rest of them. Adryan had just formed an alliance with the man, he was the Alpha of the Wood Creek Pack in the south. They had vast lands and resources Adryan knew would come in handy one day. Otherwise the man had a vile personality. He had a reputation of sleeping around a lot with the she - wolves, mated and unmated alike. He was twenty one years old, young and dumb as they come. They were sat around the bar that was situated at one side of the ballroom after finalizing their deal. Alpha Connor, his beta Dean along with Adryan and his beta, Brian had joined for a 'celebratory' drink as Alpha
"Darius" A voice roared, "You better come back here boy". A ten-year-old boy slammed a door open, he looked like he was running away from something, although his leg was injured, and he was unsteady on the right side of his leg due to the pain. He had no wolf, he wasn't like the average werewolf off springs who would be able to heal despite not being of age where they could shift.Struggling as he ran, not stopping at all, fearing that the person would catch up to him and he would have to go through something worse. All of a sudden he feels himself bump into someone and falls to the ground, wincing in pain."Darius" a soft voice calls out his name in confusion, looking up from the ground, his eyes meet a pair of warm ocean-blue eyes filled with worry. Her eyes took in his injured body, from his hands that had fresh wounds and slash markings, to his wrists that looked like he was tied down to something tightly, with his clothes tattered and barely hanging on by the end. Luna Alana w
1 year laterHead tilted toward the sky with her eyes closed, Jade feels the cool wind blow around her, brushing her skin ever so softly, as the first drop of rain drops, slowly, with one or two drops turning to a constant rhythmic dance as the rain gets heavier. Suddenly she didn't feel the raindrops on her skin anymore, opening her eyes, she was met with an umbrella above her head, and turned to the side to find a pair of violet-coloured eyes already staring back at her. A smile graces her face, wet hair strands sticking to her face. With his free hand, Darius tries to pull her under the shelter of the umbrella completely, only for Jade to knock the umbrella out of his hands completely, causing him to get drenched in the heavy rain as well.Darius pulls Jade closer to his body, his hands cupping her small face, bringing her face closer to his face, Jade closes her eyes anticipating him to kiss her when she feels his lips place a soft kiss on her forehead. Tingles spread throughout h
Flashback (5 years ago)Jade's eyes felt like someone had clued them together, her head was pounding as she sat up, and she could smell the burnt smell of flesh surrounding her, with people screaming around her, tears slid down her cheeks, she was thankful for the first time in her life for being blind, because she knew that she wouldn't be able to stomach the view around her. Death loomed in the air.Trying to stand up on her shaky legs, she stumbles but she doesn't fall to the ground like she expected herself to instead she feels someone's touch on her body, their cold hands supporting her body, causing her body to tense up. "Who are-e you?" She asks, her voice stuttering with fear. Her question is met with silence, and the next instant she's picked up bridal style, she could tell that it was a man as she felt one side of her body pressed onto their hard chest. She feels the person carefully navigate through the aftermath of the fire.After a few moments, the person stops walking,
It was a quiet day, the wind howled moving the curtains back and forth with its powerful blows, and not soon after it started raining, Jade watched from the window alcove as the first few drops of water dripped down the leaves. It had been almost eight months since she was taken away from the pack. She missed Adonis, Adryan, Violet and everyone from the pack every day. She also often finds herself thinking about the weird mate bond she has with Darius. She has heard stories of werewolves getting second-chance mates, but that was only if they get rejected by their mate or one of them dies, what was even weirder in her case was that she had a mate already and she was a werewolf mated to a vampire.Feeling her stomach growl from hunger she decides to go down to the kitchen herself. Over the past few months, Jade had built up the courage to do things on her own, at first she was sceptical to go out of her room in fear of encountering a vampire but now she finds the hallways clear whenever
A wooden chair flies across the room full force and collides with the wall causing it to break on impact. The people in the room gulped with widened eyes, as they watched their Alpha lose his cool. "What the fuck do you mean that you can't find a single trace of her? how can a person vanish into thin air" Adryan shouts as he faces the pack members of the search team. Adryan was angry and distraught as days passed by. Adryan looked like a mess with his facial hair growing, with dishevelled hair. It's been three months since his mate went missing and so far he has no clue where she is or what happened to her."Calm down Adryan, I'm sure we will definitely find her," Brian says, placing a comforting hand on top of one of Adryan's shoulders. Brian motions for the search team members to leave, so that only he, Adryan and Violet were left in the room.Adryan's shoulders sag in defeat as he takes a seat on his office chairs."You know we don't have to search for her like a bunch of idiots wh
Two weeks passed by without Jade seeing him, she ate her breakfast, lunch and dinner in her room, she didn't join him like she did the first time during the meals, she was half expecting him to drag her out of her room but none of that happened, she was surprised, to say the least.Jade had felt an inkling that he was ignoring her after their last encounter in her room.She felt like being coped up inside her room was the only thing that would protect her from whatever she would face once she was outside, but she could only sit inside these four walls for so long, doing nothing, passing her days monotonously. She felt like she would lose her mind if she sat around for even five more minutes. It also didn't help the fact that she missed Adryan and Adonis so much, she felt like she had left behind a piece of her heart with them, she even missed Violet and everyone else in the pack. Jade didn't know how long it has been since she was taken away from the pack, or if Adryan was searching fo
Meanwhile at the werewolf committee Adryan felt like he was at his wit's end. It's been four weeks since he left his pack. Four weeks since he saw his mate and son. The most he had gone without seeing them was just a few hours so at most, he was getting restless and the issue regarding the pack of rogues wasn't solved yet. They couldn't track down the exact location where they might be staying at. It seemed to them like they were in hiding since it's been a few months since the last time they struck, and it's been silent on their part ever since.Alpha Lycus Angelo of the Lupine Night Crawlers pack and Alpha Leander Moss of the Onyx Ridge pack weren't any better. During his one month away, he learned a piece of shocking news. All this time Adryan had thought he was the only Lycan, but boy was he wrong. Turns out Alpha Lycus and Alpha Leander were both pure-blooded Lycan like him, and much older than him, which means they've lived for hundreds of years but none of them looked a day ove
She moans in pain as she sits upright on the bed. It took her a few minutes to collect her bearings, at first she thought that someone had struck her hard across the back of her head with a heavy object or something which subjected her to almost seeing stars. It took her a while to recollect her memories, remembering that she was poisoned.She suspected that the water she had consumed from the bottle most probably had been poisoned. Lifting her head she stroked the part where her head hurt the most, pressing her fingers lightly onto her temple, she winces as pain immediately flares up. At this point, she couldn't even comprehend if it was physical pain or psychological pain she felt.A few minutes pass by as she sat on top of the soft mattress, as she lifted her head and took in her surrounding she couldn't tell where she was, or exactly what this place was.The room was huge, painted a royal blue in colour, and curtains and drapes covered the whole expansion of a wall, possibly to co
"Say bye, Adonis" Jade says as she holds Adonis in her arms. Who had tear streaks on his face from crying, the moment he saw Adryan getting into the car along with Brian and the few of the warriors of the pack to leave towards the Werewolf committee, he had started bawling his eyes out. Making grabby hands towards Adryan, wanting to be picked up, but when he realised that he wasn't going to be picked up, hell broke loose. "Bye" Jade's hands held Adonis' small ones in hers, waving as Adryan's car rolled away. Of course, Adryan had been hesitant to leave seeing his son's tear stained face, but he had no choice but to leave, as it was an important matter they had to discuss about. He had kissed her and Adonis on the cheek, saying his goodbye.They wouldn't be able to see him for a month or two, depending on how the werewolf committee works around the issue. Both Jade and Adryan were thankful that they had gotten time to spend with each other and Adonis before he left.She wipes away the
