I move to the beat of the music, suddenly feeling all my worries wash away. I wanted to forget. To forget that the man I’m in love with is having this party to celebrate finding his mate. To say I'm heartbroken would be an understatement. I am shattered because I knew my love for him would probably
Raised voices bring me out of a peaceful sleep. There were people arguing, but it all sounded so far away. Instead of opening my eyes, I snuggled deeper into the comfy and warm mattress. It felt like heaven. Like I was sleeping in the clouds. Someone shouts my name, but I push the sound back. It wa
The whip lands on my back. I grit my teeth against the pain and refuse to give them the satisfaction of watching me break. I don’t know how long I’ve been here. All I know is that I’m slowly starting to lose my mind. Slowly starting to lose myself. I’ve known nothing but pain since I came here. Not
Alec.It’s been around three months since that bitch turned my life upside down. Three months later, the slut still refuses to talk.I hate her for everything she’s done. If it weren’t for her selfishness, Lola and I would have been mated. She’d most likely be pregnant with my heir. Sadie took all t
[Trigger Warning; The following chapter has mention of S.A, therefore might be sensitive to some readers.]SadieI ran with the little strength I had. I wouldn’t call what I was doing running, but in my head, it was. He was right. I needed to get away if I didn’t want Alec’s warrior to catch me. Thi
My brain is definitely foggy because I know I didn’t hear her right. She was suggesting that I was pregnant, which isn’t possible, right? Even if that were the case, considering all the torture I went through, shouldn’t I already have had a miscarriage? I hung helplessly while she tried to support
Raven I stare at Sadie as she sleeps. My mind was jumbled, and my soul was conflicted. I didn’t know what to do with her. She was basically a stranger. If there is one thing my mother instilled in me before she died, it’s that wolves are dangerous and to never trust them. Sadie was clearly one, ev
“Do you honestly think that?” I'm still a bit unsure. "Yes,” she replies softly. “I know that Sadie is meant for something big, and you, my darling Raven, are meant to be by her side.” I just nod, still unable to really comprehend what she has just revealed. I continue staring at one place. Comple
I stare at them, my mind racing at seeing them like this, the new discovery about Nyx temporarily forgotten. Aspen is chatting away like she’s known Alec her whole life. I can’t hear anything because my ears are ringing, but I can tell she’s probably entertaining him with stories of her adventure.A
“Who are the two girls?” I ask, fearing the answer she’ll give.“Me and my sister,” she whispers, brokenly.The air gets stuck in my throat as the words strike my already battered heart in a way I don’t understand. There is something just on the surface, but before I can fully grasp what it is, it d
I wake up a bit disoriented. My mind is a bit foggy and I can’t shake the tiredness that was weighing down my body.I hate it when this happens. You fall asleep finally, thinking that you’ll have the rest your body has been craving, only to wake up feeling more tired than you were the previous day.
I walked into my room and immediately went to the bathroom to take yet another shower. This one, unlike the previous one, was quick. I was hoping that I could wash away Alec’s burning stare and the dirt that came with dragging a hybrid through the forest. I managed to wash the dirt away, but not his
I drag the hybrid’s body, my mind full of unanswered questions. I couldn’t help thinking of the last two hybrids that attacked me and wondering whether these two incidents were somehow related.“What do you think?” I ask Nyx, not caring if the man I was dragging got hurt or not.He doesn’t really de
I don’t know how long it is when Nyx finally stops, collapsing on the cold, hard ground.“I need rest,” she says, panting.I don’t say anything, because what is there to say? I kept pushing her because I didn’t want to think, and I knew stopping would automatically bring me back to my depressing tho
I stare at Aspen, who is soundly asleep. She looks so beautiful. So, at peace. Her long lashes fan her cheeks, and her mouth is slightly open as she snores. Snoring should be annoying, but when it’s from Aspen, it’s absolutely cute.The day out that we had completely tired her out. She didn’t even f
AlecI’m still rooted to my spot as Sadie’s words continue playing through my mind like a broken record.I want to ask if I am that terrible. So terrible that she would wish I were dead. I can't, though, because I know that I was a monster to her. Worse than a monster, actually."Alec," I hear Piper
She lowers her arms to her side.“Hi” she says in an awkward tone and a half smile.I stare at her, not really sure what the hell to do. The woman standing before me used to be my best friend. I knew everything about her and vice versa. Now I look at her and a stranger stares back at me.I should mo
