Chapter25: Let's Dance!
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56As the evening loomed, my sense of dread intensified. I would be keeping an eye on a mermaid venturing on land, who was on the brink of overindulging in alcohol, and I had no idea how she might react.
Meanwhile, a possibly latent hybrid merman—who just happens to be Brocks beta in our midst—was inexplicably drawn to Esme, unable to grasp the nature of his attraction.
Then there was the overbearing Alpha (my mate), whose controlling tendencies led him to shadow my every move relentlessly.
To add to this eclectic mix, I had extended an invitation to our pack's witch, a benevolent soul reminiscent of Glinda, the Good Witch of the North.
The bouncer noticed our group waiting in the background and allowed us to skip the line. This prompted groans and complaints from the younger crowd until Alpha Brock unleashed a ferocious growl. Instantly, the adolescent wolves quieted down, exposi

The air crackled with an eerie stillness as the world around me succumbed to an icy paralysis. Just as my fingers were a breath away from the welcoming grasp of Esme's hand, time itself halted, imprisoning everyone in their exact positions like figures in a wax museum. My head swiveled, taking in the tableau of suspended figures when, amidst the silence, her laughter pierced the stillness. Linda had apparated with a mischievous twinkle, reveling in the chaos of our predicament. Arms folded across my chest, my annoyance bubbled into words, thinly veiled with playful reprimand. "Linda! What in the heavens took you so long?" My voice carried a mock severity yet betrayed by the hint of a smile struggling at the edges of my lips. With her characteristic impish grin, she ushered my friends toward their cars. Brock, sober and clear-headed, was promptly assigned to the role of driver in his own vehicle. Beside him, Grayson was settled into the role of navigator on the passenger si

Refusing to relinquish my anger, I stubbornly stayed suspended in midair until exhaustion overcame me and I fell asleep. It was only then that I plummeted with a thud onto the floor, and I cursed loudly, "Ouch! Darn that stupid witch!"Upon regaining my composure, I noticed someone had considerately laid out clothes for me on the bed. There was a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, both in my size, which I was grateful for. I also found brand-new underwear and a bra, extending my gratitude to the unknown provider.I carried spare makeup in my purse, which came in handy when I wanted to freshen up. After using the bathroom, I showered and blow-dried my hair.The bathroom was well-stocked with a variety of female necessities—hair dryers, makeup, nail polish, curling irons, and crimpers—a veritable diva's paradise.

Alpha Brocks point of view—Stephanie urged me to chase after Grayson, but I refused. I wasn't about to go running after him to deal with his own mate issues. "He can handle his own problems.

That jerk Alpha Justin has my sister and is refusing to let her go.

Brock’s point of view: Hearing Stephanie’s father on the phone, I swiftly put my phone back to my ear. "Alpha Silverton, one of our hospital’s nurses was left dead on the pack’s borders. The body had a note pinned on it for Stephanie. You need to come here, and we will work together to bring your daughter back," I informed the Alpha, my tone hardened with rage. I could hear Stephanie's father roaring with anger over the phone, "I will be right there, Alpha Simmons, and I want to know more about Janice!"

Brock – I ordered Grayson, my beta, to assemble a team of warriors. After issuing the command, I swiftly leaped out of the window myself. My priority was to pursue my mate and ensure her safety. It was unclear whether my growing affection was born of genuine feelings or simply the influence of the mate bond. All I knew was that my heart raced with a fierce intensity whenever she was nearby, and an aching void filled me in her absence. I was resolute in my determination: Yadiel would not lay a finger on my mate. The forest that once whispered peace to my soul now suffocated it with an oppressive silence. My wolf, a relentless shadow within me, quivered with an agitation that rippled through my being, severing the once cherished communion with the rustling trees and the earth underfoot.

Brock's perspective: I crouched by Stephanie's side, stroking her pale cheek, willing her to fight through. Dr. Mildred was a blur of motion, her hands swift and sure as she worked to stop the bleeding, her brow furrowed with concentration, her lips moving in silent prayer or perhaps a list of medical steps. The clock on the wall ticked in mockery of my racing heart, its hands moving too slowly for my liking. It seemed time itself had conspired to increase the torture, drawing out each moment into an unbearable eternity. Minutes - or was it hours? - passed and finally, Dr. Mildred straightened with a tired sigh, peeling off her gloves. "We've managed to stop the bleeding," she announced, her eyes meeting mine.

As I glanced around, nothing appeared wrong, which led me to realize the unpleasant smell was coming from me; okay, maybe I hadn't showered in a few days.I rummaged through my closet and picked out a pair of leggings and an oversized sweatshirt. After that, I opened my dresser and chose some underwear. Embracing a gradual approach, I completed my outfit with fuzzy socks, opting for comfort above all today.
