"You can't barge into a girl's room like that," I snapped at him as soon as he entered the room, while I am still scared of his reaction when he sees Diego. He didn't say anything but narrowed his eyes. "Don't act too shocked, alright?" I finally gave up and decided to apply the 'make him understand' technique. "Who is he?" he asked me, and I gulped. Why am I worrying about this situation? It's not like it's my duty to keep his secret... argh... "Diego..... but you're not telling anyone," I said to him pointedly, and he frowned. "You're sleeping with your captive," he stated, and instantly I was confused. I looked behind and turned towards my bed where I found Diego lying on the bed, but the duvet was covering his whole body. The last time someone thought that I was sleeping with a guy didn't end up great. "Do I need to give you any clarification?" I asked him while coming in front of him so that his focus would be on me and not on Diego. This lycan is also stupid; he should have
He fell to his knees, and I instantly shouted, "Don't shoot!" I went towards Noah and pulled out the dart from his arm. When I saw that his skin started turning red instead of grey, I took a deep calming breath. They shot him with wolfsbane, not silver. If it were silver, it would be almost impossible to tackle the situation without giving him long-term issues. "Go inside," Noah said through clenched teeth, and I rolled my eyes at him. "I am a huntress, Noah. You're the one in danger, not me," I said to him, scanning the area. "Go inside," I instructed him, and about to head towards the woods when he grabbed my hand. "I can't let a captive of a pack run away under my guard," he said to me, and I huffed at the stubbornness of these wolves. "This is the Blue Moon pack, the land that belongs to the hidden alpha. Even we hunters think twice before planning anything against this pack. Don't give yourself this much authority here. The alpha knows everything that happens here," I told him
"Whoa," I stumbled backward and instantly felt Diego's tingly touch behind my back. His furry and huge hands were instantly around all three of our bodies. "Deeee," both girls shrieked. Though all the weight of the three of us was on Diego, I groaned as they squished me. They must have heard me because both girls moved away from me, and I took a few steps away from Diego. I looked at the girls and realized that they were the twin daughters of Luna Queen, Aria, and Bria. They had been smiling ear to ear at Diego before, but my presence seemed to have affected their shocked expressions. "Isn't she the same girl?" one of them said, and the other nodded. "Someone's coming," the same twin said, and both of them grabbed Diego's hands, pushed him inside his room, and closed the door behind them. Noah climbed upstairs slowly, and now he was clearly looking high. "You could at least wait for me," he said without looking, but when he looked in front, he rubbed his eyes. "Are there two more gi
“What?” I couldn't help but ask her again to make sure that what I heard was true. “If you are done with this captive game, can I go away?” she asked me again, and now I didn’t have the guts to face her. I turned towards the river and let go of her hand. “This is all becoming too much for me, and now I can’t even understand why I am actually here. If you want to kill me for torturing you, then kill me. If you think that I don’t deserve to die, then let me go from here,” she said to me, and though I could feel waves of emotions from her, I was still unable to find a way to tell her that I wanted her as my mate. “Is something or someone troubling you here?” I asked her when I didn’t have anything else to say. “I don’t remember having a proper bed, proper food, and the freedom to roam here and there, even when I was a huntress, Diego. The things you provided me for the last week are the things that no one provided me for free. Things are changing, and I want to be somewhere I can be at
One year later - Diego’s POV - I looked around the mess I had created a while ago and cursed under my breath. Two dead bodies of deer were lying near me, which automatically made me sigh in annoyance. I got up and started walking towards my home. "Come on, buddy, it was my new shirt," I complained to Delcan, who was still silent as always. I walked towards my house while being attentive enough to analyze the woods carefully. I could smell the scent of our warriors a few meters away from me, doing their night patrols. I could smell the scent of the woods, hear the lullaby of insects, and feel the wind doing its best to dry my blood-coated hair. Instead of taking the whole way to my home through the woods, I walked through the town. Usually, I'm not particularly eager to roam in the town in daylight, but the case is different at night. I like the feeling that the pack members are sleeping peacefully in their homes without any worries. I feel content knowing that they have unwavering
"Arya," I mumbled her name in disbelief. "I am in a club named 'Wildheart Hideout.' It is near your pack. I need help," she told me without waiting a single second, making my heart beat faster in anxiety and happiness. I instantly got up from the bed. I will not allow anything to happen to her. "I will be there in half an hour. Do you think you can handle the situation until then?" I asked her and jumped out of the window, running towards the woods. I have been to this club once when I was wandering around. It is a few miles away from our southern borders and doesn't fall within any pack's territory, but I do have spotted a couple of wolves from another pack there. "I am trying. Just be fast," she told me and was about to add something more when I heard disturbance and commotion from the other side, and the call got disconnected. I cursed under my breath and gave control to Delcan, who instantly crouched down on all fours and started running with insane speed. I couldn't believe sh
Delcan gave me back the control, and Aria and Bria came running towards me. Arya was lying down in the back seat of the car and was unconscious. Her neck was bleeding, and she looked pale as if there was no blood in her body. When I took her out of the car, her body felt cold, very cold. Her heart rate was increasing with each passing second; she was breathing rapidly, and I didn't know how long she would be able to live in this condition. I mind-linked a couple of warriors to reach here as soon as they could. Bria gave me a cloth, and I placed it on the heavily bleeding wound. I applied pressure to stop the bleeding. "Dee, take her to the hospital. They have already sucked enough blood from her body," Aria told me, and Bria nodded in agreement. "Sit inside the car," I told them and placed Arya back in the car. The keys were still inside, but I went towards the vampire and broke both his legs. I left him groaning there in pain and mind-linked my warriors to take him captive in the d
"Okay, I will take care of the matter," I told her. As she was busy, she also ended the mind link. When the mind link ended, my gaze met the three pairs of eyes. Before I said anything to them, Ryan mind-linked me. "Champ, did you get the news about Federico?" he asked me instantly, and I couldn't help but feel the need for Ryan's safety now. "Yes, Ry, I am scared," I accepted the truth to him. "You are not alone, champ. I have to go to the council right now, but both Chicky (Ryan calls Addy Chicky) and I will come to your place as soon as we finish the council work. Don’t worry, we will handle it together," his words again made me feel protected, as always. "I will wait for you, Ry," I told him and ended the mind link. When I again focused my eyes, my gaze met the gaze of the three females, who seemed more than eager to know things. "Didn't you hear what I said earlier, Aria, Bria?" I couldn't help but tell Aria and Bria in irritation. "Do I have to repeat myself?" They must have
