Arturo:“You don’t have to stay by my side the whole day, Arturo.” Sienna said, raising herself to look at me. I nodded and gave her a gentle smile, knowing that she was still upset with everything that happened.The fact that the sun was setting and that she was unable to shift was something that neither one of us could miss. I knew that she was not opening up about it, but I also knew that it was hurting her a lot more than she could have ever thought that it would. The anger and the pain that she must have been feeling would have killed another man, and that was something that I couldn’t easily ignore or let go of. “I know, Sienna, and I am not staying because I HAVE to, I am doing it because I want to. There is a fine difference between both words.” I said, sitting on the edge of the bed which she was laying on.I knew that there were no broken bones, that was something that I was thankful for, but she needed all the rest that she could get. I picked up the ointment that was on t
Sienna:I tried to clear my mind enough to be able to think.I truly did.However, I couldn’t find myself doing so as I realized that my father not only killed my mom because she wanted to escape him. It was because she was trying to actually report what was happening.It proved to me that I was right in submitting to the man and not causing any trouble. The abuse that I have been through made it obvious to me anyway, but I didn’t expect him to stoop as low as killing someone. But then again, I should have expected it. It would have cost his mistress, and now that I think of it, his son, their lives. That is something that he didn’t want, and it was something that mom would have opened up for him.“Do you want to try and get out of the room? See if you can at least stay with the pack members in the living room?” Arturo asked. His voice was softer than usual, and I could tell that he was treating me like some jewel that he was afraid of breaking. The thing was, I couldn’t help but fee
Arturo:“That is impossible,” William, one of the elders of the wolves said, looking me dead in the eye.I raised an eyebrow at the man who had his eyes on Sienna, looking at her as if she was some pest or parasite. I had to fight back growling at the man, knowing that it was me who was in his place. And the fact that he was superior to Sienna was what stopped me from taking my anger out on him. “He has attacked me, and not only that, but he killed my father for the place of being an Alpha. I am well aware that this may come out as…”“If Eli was a witch, why have you not informed us about this before? Why did you choose to stay quiet about it all this time?” He asked, stopping Sienna who looked down at her feet, avoiding his eyes. She looked at me for a second, silently asking me whether or not to proceed and I nodded, giving her the courage to do so.“I was abused not to.” She said, looking the man dead in the eye. The council frowned and shook their heads in question as mutters fi
Sienna:My heart raced against my ribcage as we approached the place where I once called home. The pack members were waiting outside in case things backfired, but I had to admit, I did hope that they didn’t. The last thing that we wanted to deal with was a mess right now.I didn’t know where things were going to go from here, but with the elders in the loop of everything, I knew that things were not going to be smooth, at least, not for Eli and Marcus.Catching our scent, the pack members grew alert, and most even left the houses to come and see us. I raised an eyebrow at the beta who walked out of his own house alongside Marcus and Arturo wrapped his arm around me, pulling me closer to him. “You two have guts coming over here.” Marcus said, glaring daggers at me. I had to admit, the idea of punching him in the face was rather tempting, but I knew that my husband would do more than just punch him in the face. If anything, I knew that he was just waiting for this investigation to be
Arturo:I pulled Sienna behind me as I tried moving her from the forming fire.A low growl escaped my chest, alerting the pack members who were outside the pack’s boundaries, masking their scents with the herbs that were provided by the werewolf elders.Though I didn’t trust using them at first, I feared the pack members getting injured or them trying to kill us; however, I was surprised when that was not the case. If anything, it seemed like they were genuinely trying to stop a war from forming.“Arturo, what are we going to do?” Sienna asked, breaking the train of my thoughts. I purred in response, wanting her to calm down despite the situation that we were in. Eli knew how to take advantage of a weak moment that my wife would be having in such a situation and that was not something that I wanted. If anything, I knew for fucking fact that I was going to make that witch pay for what she was doing; however, for now, I needed my wife to be calm through this situation.Her wolf was inju
Sienna:My heart raced against my ribcage as I saw the hellhounds dragging Marcus toward the doors which had opened. He tried escaping them, but wherever he went, they would just appear, ten times his size, and would just drag him. This time, three of them dragged him by his collar before another man appeared, walking out of the door to look at him. Arturo nodded at the man before he nodded and smiled, taking a step back. The smile was faint, but it was there, and then, as if nothing happened, everything went completely quiet.Arturo shifted back to human in a second before wrapping his arms around me, pulling me in for a hug. My heart raced against my ribcage and I couldn’t help the blush that formed on my cheeks as I felt his naked body against mine. “You’re naked and there are kids in the pack who have fled their houses.” I said, and he chuckled before kissing the crown of my head. He pulled away to look me dead in the eye and I couldn’t help the smile that formed on my lips bef
Arturo:I wrapped my arm around my wife as the two of us were led toward the field where the pack members were gathered.William, their wolf elder let out a low growl, forcing all the other wolves to submit and get on their knees. Their hearts raced against their ribcages, and I could see their fear in their eyes. However, the man didn’t flinch or move an inch.“Each one of you here is held accountable for the harm and abuse that Luna Sienna, Alpha of this pack, has gone through.” William said, glaring at the pack members. “Most of you, if not all, knew that she was being harmed, and yet, neither one of you took the stand to the witch who lived amongst the pack. Regardless of the fact that all of you knew that wolf and witch relations are illegal based on our laws to ensure the safety of the pack grounds, neither one of you took the stand to note that you had the hybrid living among your side.” The pack members trembled, and Eli looked down at Sienna’s feet as they had her forced to
Sienna: I smiled at my husband as the two of us went back to the pack. The fact that he was more than willing and open to sacrifice a lot for me only made me admire him more than I already did. The man did not only help me get back what was mine, but he also stood up to those who took it from me, and that was something that I knew that I couldn’t have done for myself. “Thank you for today, Arturo.” I said, catching his attention. He frowned in confusion before turning to face my blushing self. However, I couldn’t contain what I was feeling toward him. The way he spoke to me, and the way he stood up to the elders for me. His softening tone when his eyes would meet mine, all that played in my head like a beautiful scenario that I couldn’t escape. “Baby girl, I didn’t do anything for you to be thanking me for. If anything, I would have done a lot more, but I knew that pushing you to more limits would only make you a lot more nervous than you already were.” He said softly. “Arturo,
