They had their tickets checked and then someone directed them to the theatre, with him in lead they headed down the dimly lit hallway and started climbing the carpeted stairs to their seats, as they were walking up the stairs, Thalia noticed that there weren’t many people sitting in the dark hall.
Carter led her to their seats which were like the farthest corner seats of the top row. “ I don’t like dealing with people, especially kids who cry while their parents would just put on a helpless grimace, I once spent three hours with a toddler and her crying and never again will I make the same mistake ever again.”
“ And I thought you purposely chose these seats because you wanted to make a move on me.” teased Thalia and not surprisingly enough Carter nipped at her bottom lip before devilishly smirking and raising his hands in surrender. “ I won’t say that I am not enticed to do that, you look freaking beautiful but if y
Thalia wasn’t sure how she got through the rest of the remaining credits, she hadn’t expected the sudden kiss and neither did she expect herself to confess what she felt about Carter but the weird thing was that she didn’t regret it. When they got together, she expected Carter to hit the bucket and do something that will f*ck her up but he didn’t, he was patient and careful with her. If she ignored the fact that he was hiding something from her then everything else was as sweet as peaches.Carter held her hand throughout the time as they walked out of the theatre hall, his pace was exceptionally fast and Thalia knew why he was striding like he had a train to catch, after he had pulled away, she had noticed the hard-on that was straining against his zipper even in the dim lighting of the theatre hall, and there was no surprise that he was taking her home so that she could take care of it. Her lips curled up in amusement at his hurried pace and she
Anger and adrenaline surged through her, as lunged at the hunter and rammed her elbow sharply at his nose. There was a pained grunt as the hunter staggered back, twisting in the air, she unsheathed her claws without giving any chance to her attack to stand back upright and jerked to her side as the hunter threw the silver dagger at her aiming right at her heart. Son of a bitch1Snarling she slashed her claws at the hunter, with a fury that demanded his blood. It wasn’t just a combat, it was an ugly brawl as her wolf lunged at her surface hard and fast trying to surface but no matter how hard she tried the chains that held her back didn’t budge and she could only growl relentlessly at the hunter that tried to harm her human counterpart.The hunter was no easy opponent either, he got some pretty good shots in as he whirled around and aimed a kick at her in the gut, Thalia dodged but she didn’t notice the sharp blade that was sticking o
“ Do you have any idea, what sort of troubles you two have incited ?” pointing at the television that was still showing the news about how two savage wolves attacked each other in a public facility that had more than three hundred humans around at the time of the attack. Thalia watched the scene that was running on the screen and had to hand it to whoever edited it, because as far as she knew the parking lot was clearly devoid of any human when Marcus attacked Carter and even while he was in his wolf form, Carter had paid great attention to his surroundings so that no human got entangled in his and Marcus’s fight but that wasn’t what the news reporter was showing.No according to the blazing red headline running at the bottom of the screen as the reporter gave live by live report of the damage that two shifters have caused in a public facility that had humans on it- a total of sixteen humans died and the number of injured was yet to be updated. Thalia
“ What are you doing?” Caroline shrieked as he flung her inside his office. Carter had tried to be patient with her, tried his best to be kind and supportive of his mother who had her own demons to fight off but she might as well be bullshitting him if she thinks that he will allow her to ruin this thing for him. Thalia wasn’t just his mate now, she was his bottom line one he wouldn’t allow anyone to trespass. She was finally opening her heart to him and he will not allow anyone to fuck this up for him.Seething with rage, he stood in front of his mother, meeting her infuriated gaze with his. “ This is something that I should be asking you, didn’t I warn you not to say a word about that incident to her? Then what were you trying to do right now?”Caroline‘s expression went hard, “ threatened you mean? You threatened me not to say a word or else you will send me away from this pack if I told her anything about
“ Do you even know what are you talking about?” Asked Jake, the expression on his face was quite peculiar and Carter had to admit that it would have been funny if the situation wasn’t this serious.“ I wouldn’t have said anything to you if I wasn’t aware of what I am saying Jake,” said Carter his expression serious as he carefully thought about Caroline’s reactions whenever Lydia or anyone else related to her was brought up. His mother’s reaction could be called nothing but extreme, at first he believed that it was all because of his kidnapping incident but later on when Jake told him that there was something wrong going on with Lydia, he couldn’t help but look for another way to think about the entire situation. “ as you already know there are some points that aren’t really clear. We know that Lydia was being forced by someone in the absence of her mate but the question was who right? I mean who wi
“ because she was the one who was at fault back then, wasn’t it-” said Jake his voice was leaking with agitation as he took a temp forward and slammed his palm on the table. “ Carter what exactly are you thinking in that messed up head of yours, Cruz was your father and he might have not have been a good father to you but he was an excellent beta, he was loyal to the alpha he served, why are you-”Carter sighed, hands planted on his desk. “ Lydia wasn’t a woman who will go down without a fight, Jake. She was a dominant female whose pride was something no one could step on, even if she was at fault I don’t think she would have stayed silent and just took the accusations like that, it was as if she wanted to leave.” Carter didn’t have much recollection of Lydia in his head except those cold blue glares that looked down at him every time she walked down the stairs of her basement. Once he found her glare funny, he
Fishing out the best dress from the wardrobe, Thalia threw it on the bed. The royal blue blended right in with the black, as crazy as it sounded they had to leave for Alex's pack for Liza’s sister’s amazing ceremony like nothing beats having a party the next day after getting attacked, right? Thalia didn’t want to leave her peace and quiet only to be get stared at like she was some poor monkey to be goggled at the zoo but Carter convinced her, said that as the Luna of the pack she needed to be by his side and they need to show up as a combined force of an Alpha pair. So, here she was putting on a chic dress and putting on makeup with whatever skills she had.But where was Carter? He was the one who said that they needed to get ready by the evening and now he was nowhere to be found. She knew that he had a meeting to take care of but it should have been over by now right? Then a crazy idea popped right in her head, she wanted to see Carter working in the offi
Thalia had no choice but to remove her oversize hoodie and jeans, she placed them neatly on the table next to the pool, remaining in her sleeveless shirt and panties. She took a few cautious steps but then Carter hooked his arm around her waist and she yelped what are you trying to do? As she felt her feet leave the wooden floor she knew exactly what he intended to do. She closed her eyes as they head to the dark water and jumped when she felt her legs getting submerged under the water.Her heart jumped in her chest just as she flinched at the feeling of water taking over half of her body, the feeling of someone catching her from behind and flinging her inside the pool overwhelmed her. She swallowed hard as her entire body started to tremble, he will come for her, he was coming for her!Blood drained from her face as goosebumps broke all over her skin. No, this wasn’t a dream. There was no way anyone will hurt her here because this was real and the monster was no
