RoxanneI woke up the next morning with a smile plastered on my face. Memories of what happened last night came rushing in, and I couldn’t help but smile to myself. It had been quite a while, and we just couldn’t get enough of ourselves. I just hoped I wasn’t too loud and no one heard our noises.I quietly removed Kylian’s hands from my waist as he was currently cuddling me. He groaned at the loss of my feel in his arms and just went back to sleep. I entered the bathroom to take my bath and get ready for the day’s activities.As the water fell on my soft skin, I carefully washed my body. I was lost in thoughts as I allowed the water to cascade down my body. I haven’t had time to process all that has happened so far since everything is happening kind of fast. I still couldn’t believe Kylian was a werewolf, and I had no idea. It was still a shocker to me, but I guessed it meant I could marry him now without having to worry about anything.Even at that, I had different thoughts running th
RoxanneI stepped out of the door, surprised to see him. What was he doing here? “Uhm, hi, good morning,” I said. I was a bit nervous and fiddling with my fingers. Oh God, what was he doing here so early in the morning? I turned back to look at Kylian and noticed he had stopped what he was doing.Damon tucked his hands into his pockets and raised his face to look at me. Oh my days, why did he look extremely handsome this morning? I felt my throat go dry, and memories from the other night at the club came swimming in. Jeez, Roxanne, I smacked myself mentally for thinking about something so inappropriate. “I came to check if you’ve left already,” he said, his eyes as cold as ever. Was something wrong? Why did he look that way? He wasn’t smiling at me like usual and wasn’t trying to flirt or crack me up. "Yeah, something came up, plus I was so tired yesterday after the mating ball,” I said, trying to sound convincing, but he scoffed and looked away. What was that for? Why was he actin
DamonI paced around in my room, walking from one corner to the other. I was very angry. I felt my heart tighten in pain. How could she? How could she let another man, who was not her mate, touch her?I went to her room this morning to check if she was gone. I had made up my mind to forget about her. Even though it was hard, I’d try; I was only torturing myself, hoping and waiting that she'd be mine someday.She didn’t even know we were mates, plus she’s so smitten with this weird guy that it annoyed me badly. Waiting on her would only be a big mistake. I wanted to fight for her, but nothing was encouraging me to do so. All my efforts so far have proven to be futile.What hurt me the most was that she had the effrontery to sleep with her boyfriend in my house under my nose. I felt my heart break all over again as I remembered how she was moaning loudly. It was as if I was betrayed all over again, considering I had experienced Mia’s betrayal too some months ago.I knew I didn’t have the
RoxanneI hurried out of the store, joining Kylian in the car. A thousand and one things were going through my mind when I entered the car. Why did he lie about his powers being trapped inside of him like mine when he has his powers? What other thing was he hiding?We settled down in the car, strapping our seat belts around us as he drove the car. I sat there in silence, waiting for him to say something and give me some sort of explanation, but he said nothing. He wasn’t even sparing me a glance.What the hell was wrong with Kylian? Why was he acting this way? I’ve never known him to be a liar or a less affair kind of person, or is it possible he concealed his true self from me? “Don’t you think you owe me some sort of explanation?” I decided to ask since he’d rather sulk in silence than explain properly to me what the hell went on in Moscow's store.“What explanation? He asked, narrowing his eyes but not still sparing me a glance. Was this guy seriously kidding right now? Why was he
Roxanne“Get your hands off me, please,” I pleaded, but it all fell on deaf ears. I tried struggling with the chains, but my efforts were futile. I looked over at Damon with pleading eyes, but he just stood there, staring coldly at me. “We didn’t do anything wrong; let us go, free us, and we’d leave your pack this instant,” I shouted panickedly. Was this because we had delayed leaving the pack? Of course, it couldn’t be that, but I was confused and at a loss for words. What other reason could Damon have for asking his guards to bundle us up in chains?Turning around, I looked over to see Kylian struggling with the chains; he was very strong, and he almost broke loose. He used his powers, and two guards came crashing to the floor. That was when the chief guard ordered them to use mercury on him, which immediately made him weak.I watched as he fell to the ground weakly, his face pale as if the blood in his body had dried up. The thing is, mercury was one of the things used to make wer
RoxanneThey dragged me out of the hall, returning me to the cell. The guards locked the door to the cell and stood in front of it, guarding it. I felt so weak and hungry and I couldn’t believe Damon would ask them to return me to the cell like that.I mean, I was telling the truth, so why didn’t he believe me? He should know me better by now that I wasn’t one to lie, but I guess he’ll always continue being a jerk.My tummy was hurting badly due to how hungry I was, and I winced out in pain. Kylian looked over at me with concern in his eyes, and I just stared away. I was confused about so many things. Is it possible he was truly the son of the Alpha of Darkwood?But yesterday he had only told me about how wicked his father was, how he was a monster, and how he had used their blood to create a bond that only he could break, so if truly he was the son of the Alpha of Darkwood, why did he leave that part out?Some things were not making sense to me; why was he hiding things from me now?
Damon I paced around my room, thinking of what to do the next morning. I wasn’t able to sleep well, just thinking about the possibility that Roxanne might be in pain. Yesterday, when she appeared before the werewolf council, she looked tattered and worn out.It made my heart ache that I was the one subjecting her to such pain, but there was little to nothing I could do. That was the law; allies to invading spies were meant to be punished and imprisoned, and doing otherwise was going to raise whispers in the council.I didn’t doubt her. I believed she had no idea that her fiancé was the son of the Alpha of Darkwood. I could see the surprise on her face yesterday when I revealed the information.That look on her face wasn’t one that could be faked. She looked surprised, and the shock was evident on her face. I could tell why she was surprised; the Alpha of Darkwood was the one that launched the attack on our pack that had led to the death of her parents.I mean, finding out your fiancé
Damon What the hell was she saying? What did she mean by they may never hear from their wolf, transform, or be able to use their powers again?"Uhm, why do you say so?” I asked hurriedly. I knew this was a selfish thought, but what quickly came to mind was the fact that Roxanne might never get to know she’s my second chance mate, and the thought seemed to make bile rise in my throat. “Yes, they may never hear from their wolf, transform, or be able to use their powers again due to the damage the portion had caused already." She paused to stare at me and Leo, and I quickly stared back at her as if trying to search her eyes for answers. “Usually, this only occurs if the werewolf involved is careless with the people around them or overly trusting. So what happened in this case was that the portion was added to every meal this person in question has eaten over the last two years.”I felt my head spinning; what was the reason? Why would anyone want to do such a terrible thing to their fe
