So, what do you all think so far? Who of my readers is still here with me?
Lia: My heart skipped a beat as the plane landed in my home city. And I had to admit, I didn’t even know how I felt about it. Just the fact that I was here was more than enough to make me smile as memories played in my head. Memories that I sometimes forgot, or even tried to as days went on. I was born and raised in Rome till my teenage years before we moved to New York. Little did I know that I would be regretting the move, or that I would be missing the smell and scent of the place that I grew up in. The peace that we had here, the happiness that we lived through. I didn’t appreciate it at the time, nor did I know the number of struggles that my parents have been through during that period. “Are you okay?” Ezra asked, breaking my train of thoughts. I smiled and nodded, turning to face him as he wrapped his arm around me, pulling me to his chest. “I just miss it here, I guess. I never really expected to after we went to the States, but it seems like my heart knows where it came f
Ezra: I ran my fingers through my wife’s hair as she lay asleep in my arms. I had to admit, the fact that our time was limited was something that I didn’t want to think of, but there was also the fact that Killian was my mate’s actual mate. The fact that he was that was something that did not slip my mind, mostly because I didn’t know how she would be taking it when he died. A mate was attached to their mates by hearts and souls, and what he was doing was breaking the bond that was given to him, it was something that I couldn’t understand or give a reason to. But I had to admit, I was actually happy that things happened the way that they did. If anything, I was the one who benefited out of it in the end. My wife was a person that I wouldn’t change for the world. Her innocence, her smile, the way she talked, walked, and even acted. Everything about her was an addiction to me, something that I couldn’t get tired of, and I didn’t even think that I could ever be tired of it. I le
Lia:“What the fucking hell happened just now?” Ezra asked as he hung up the phone. I shook my head, feeling just as confused as he was. I was just as surprised as he was, and was wondering how things got to where they were, but these were things that we shouldn’t be asking at this moment. “I don’t know, but I don’t want to jinx it.” I said, and Ezra frowned. He put his phone in his pocket and took a deep breath before nodding. His eyes which had been gentle earlier today were now hard with determination. I knew that he was still worried, there was no denying that. But I also knew that his mother’s words had encouraged him more than anything else could have. At least, I knew that something was going right in this after all. The man has been going through a mental battle since he saw her reaction yesterday, and I was thankful that he was at least able to get over it. At least, he knew that he wasn’t alone in this.In theory, he wasn’t alone, I was going to support him till the very en
Ezra:I looked at Lia whose eyes showed fear in them.I had to admit, this was the first time that I have seen the blade to begin with. I was often surprised that we never found pictures of them, and when I did ask my father, he never answered.But after seeing the radiation and beauty of the thing was one that I never really saw. The details that were drawn, and the power surge that I felt in the room was one that I never felt before. I moved away from Lia and walked to one of the drawers, my weaponry drawer, and pulled out a holster and strap. They were ones that Arturo used to use when he had his daggers, he stopped using blades a while later though, and now we mostly depended on our guns if needed. I had to admit, the attacks and fights that we got into have lessened over the years, not that they were needed, but considering the history of how things used to go, and now, yeah, our lives were a whole lot easier now.I got down on my knee in front of my wife whose eyes widened in s
Lia: The plane landed, and I couldn’t help the smile that formed on my lips as Ezra and I got up to get off of it. I had to admit, despite having the blade strapped on my thigh, I was surprised that no one even stopped us to check whether or not we had any weapons as we entered the airport. It could be the fact that Ezra was a known man, but I still thought and feared that they would. “Welcome home, bambina.” Ezra said, catching my attention. I smiled and took his hand in mine, gently squeezing it as the two of us got out of the plane and toward the cars that were waiting for us. Armando, who was here to pick us up, smiled as he approached us, he wrapped his arm around me as he pulled me in for a quick hug before turning to his Alpha. “Welcome home.” He said, and Ezra smirked. “I have barely been gone two days, and yet, you guys are missing us already.” Ezra teased and Armando laughed before opening the car’s door for me. He motioned for me to get inside and nodded, and I did as
Ezra:I ran as I tried to find my wife.Her scent filled my nostrils, and I could hear her calling for me. But the closer I got to her voice, the further it would go.“Ezra…” she called again, this time, her voice closer to me, behind me. “Ezra, I need your help.”“Lia, I’ve got you.” I said, trying to approach her only for her body to be pulled away from me. I screamed, running after her only to stop when I was surrounded. The floor beneath my feet cracked, and I fell through. I screamed, trying to hold onto anything, but suddenly there was nothing, and I was just in the middle of the sky.I gasped, my body waking faster than I ever thought that it would, and frowned when I opened my eyes to find myself at the hospital.My vision blurred as I tried adjusting to the light in the room as I tried recalling what happened before I got here. Who I was with or where I was only for my heart to drop to my stomach when I processed what happened or was happening to be more specific. I tried s
Lia: “Let me out!” I snapped, trying to break the bars that kept me in this cell. “Killian, brother, bringing her here was not the best of ideas.” I heard Annalise, the woman who I remembered as his sister, say. Her eyes met mine and I growled, snapping one of the bars. Killian shook his head at me and nodded at his sister to leave. “Killian…” “Now, Annalise.” He said, not bothering to give her a second glance. He waited until she was out of the place before he unlocked the cell. I went to immediately punch him only for him to hold both my hands in his, stopping me. “You are one feisty wolf.” His expression was calm, amused, even happy? The man was bloody mental if he was enjoying this if you asked me. “Let me go, Killian.” I snapped, glaring at him. “You’re going to try and poke my eyes...” “I was not going to poke them, darling, I intended to pull them out of their sockets.” I said, glaring at him. “Now, I can’t have that, can I?” He asked, smiling at me. I shook my head a
Ezra: “Ezra, where the fuck are you going?” Dad asked, frowning when he entered my room to find me getting up from bed. I was thankful for the fact that they brought my clothes here for me to change as requested. Though mom and dad weren’t really aware of that order, I wasn’t stupid as not to know that the maids who got the clothes weren’t already aware that I planned on getting things done. Them being as secretive as they were to keep from having anyone stopping them was the main reason why I knew that I made the right choice with trusting them when I did. “Plus, where on Earth did you get your clothes from? Fucks sake, Ezra, you are still injured.” “Ezra, son, you need to rest…” “Time is running, my wife isn’t here, and I don’t have the Lycan bitch here. So, you can guess that I am going to get her and get my wife back as well. Now, you two can either come with me or choose to stay here, but I am not going to let time tick while I don’t even know where my wife is.” I said, stoppin
