Chapter 22 EAT!!Lucious' soft footsteps echoed in the hallway as he walked towards the room. He held a tray which contained a plate of steaming hot food and water he had decided to bring for the rogue girl. Since Dayna had left , Lucious thought the girl must really be hungry as she hasn't eaten anything for days now.Lucious' footsteps stopped just by her door as he gently opened it. He could see the rogue sitting on the bed with her back faced to him. Lucious slowly closed the door as he entered. He took long strides across the room and stopped just in front of the rogue.The girl's shoulders were slumped as she looked down. " Food" He said simply as he dropped it on the table and waited for her to eat. The girl didn't move one bit as she sat there, her eyes still looking at the ground.This irked the Alpha as he frowned his face. He picked up the tray and moved the small table closer to her." Eat! " He demanded loudly putting the tray back on the table but the girl still ignor
Chapter 23 STUBBORN MATERaphael glared at his mate angrily after hearing what she had said. He didn't realized when he had yelled at her till he saw his mate staring back at him, mouth slightly opened in shock. " Just stop it already Alena " He half– yelled as he ran his hand through his hair in frustration.He was tired, tired of hearing his mate repeat the same thing over and over again.That filthy girl is not the Luna and she could never be. He refused to accept that.Alena frowned as she mumbled some incoherent words he couldn't hear before she looked away." Oh come here " He sighed as he reached out and gently pulled her into a hug.He knew his mate was angry. She tried resisting as she struggled but Raphael held her tight. The more she struggled, the more he felt the little sparks erupting from their skin contact.Raphael closed his eyes as he breathe in his mate's lovely scent. It was all he needed right now to calm his nerves. He felt Alena soon stop struggling as she g
Chapter 24 BLOOD-SHOT RED" What in the name of hell happened up here?!" Alena asked, shock written all over face. She couldn't believe her eyes.Alena quickly turned as she glanced at her mate. She saw his equally shocked expression as he saw what the Alpha had done.Just what in the name of hell happened up here?' Alena make sure you stay behind me and don't make a sound. Don't go anywhere till I tell you to.. and be careful not to step on anything' She heard Raphael's worried voice say through mind–link. Alena looked at her worried mate as she nodded in understanding. She could hear him sigh as he quickly grabbed her hands and pulled her to stay behind him.Raphael put his mate behind him as the two slowly walked into the apartment. He held her tight as he tried to make sure she didn't step or slip on anything the Alpha had thrown all over the place.The whole floor was complete mess as the beta and his mate entered and approached the large living room.Alena could something cras
Chapter 25 SPEECHLESSThe door gently creaked open as Alena stepped into the somewhat dark room. She was sure the sound she heard came from this room. Her eyes roamed around the large room , searching for something or someone. She could see perfectly in the dark , thanks to her werewolf abilities. Allen carefully stepped into the room, walking slowly , her eyes roamed about the large room. She had not gone far when her eyes landed on a figure, curled up on the floor. The whimpering sound she heard earlier was coming from the figure." Hello?" Alena called out, walking closer to the figure on the floor. " Excuse me? " Alena stopped just above the figure who was that of a young girl. She carefully stooped down to get a better view of her." Are you okay?" Alena's soft voice asked as she reached out to turn the girl over." Oh selene!" A small gasp escaped her lips as she saw the state the girl was in. Her face was contorted with pain , sweat covering her whole forehead, as she gr
Chapter 26 THE WOMAN FROM LAST NIGHTIt was morning when Haven finally opened her eyes again. She found herself in another room, much different from the one she was locked in before.This one was a little smaller than the former but it had the touch of home to it. Lovely brown curtains covered the windows, allowing just enough light to enter the room. The bed was smaller and looked as if it was meant for one person only. Everything in here felt like home.Haven sighed heavily, she wanted to laugh at herself right now. She was an Alpha so how could she become this weak? Haven could count the number of times she's passed out since she arrived in this stupid pack.Her dad would really be disappointed if he saw her in this state right now. She was never the weak one.Haven let out another sigh as she made to get up from the cozy bed. A small groan escaped her lips reminding her of the injury on her arm.Haven looked down and frowned, seeing the bandage neatly wrapped around her left arm.
Chapter 27 TWO DAYS AWAY.Lucious found himself walking towards a certain direction. He didn't know why, but the first thing that comes to his mind every time he woke up was to check on the rogue.He pushed open the door, his eyes fell on the large bed at the middle of the room — it was empty.He sighed deeply, he was so used to seeing her there and today when she wasn't there, Lucious didn't know why he felt empty. He couldn't explain how hollow his heart felt at the moment.It felt like a part of him had been taken away from him." Arghhhh" He groaned in frustration. The restlessness he's been feeling seemed to intensify for no reason." What the hell is happening to me ?!" He ran his hands through his hair. Alena had already taken that rogue away from him — shouldn't he be happy?It was the rogue's fault after all, so why does he feel so sad?' The rogue..' His wolf whined." Shut up Daryl !! " Lucious barked at his wolf. He didn't know why his wolf was so obsessed with the rogu
Chapter 28 A DAY AWAY.The whole pack village were busy making preparations for the annual Moon Ball. Everywhere was packed with people from different packs , laughing and talking to each other. More and more warriors surrounded the pack village as dozen of werewolves entered through the gate with each passing minute.Everything was set in place for the grand event tomorrow night.The Alpha had been so busy lately. He hardly had time for himself. Even the beta's hardly with his mate, he was busy running up and down , trying to make sure everything's going well.Alena was bored at home, she really missed her mate. Besides , Raphael had stopped her from going out of the pack house, saying he doesn't want her putting herself in any risk at this stage of her pregnancy.She looked at her huge belly, she would be due a few days or so — She felt excited and scared at the same time. She couldn't believe she would become a mother soon. Alena chewed on her nuts as she sat on Haven's bed. She
Chapter 29 TRY THEM OUTHaven was slightly taken aback when Alena dragged her out of the room." What? Don't stare at me like that, would you rather go to the ball wearing jeans?" Alena asked.'Of course not' Haven wanted to say." Exactly !" Alena exclaimed as if she heard Haven's thoughts. " We're going to go buy you a beautiful ball gown" She squealed.Haven stood there, a look of disapproval on her face as she slightly shook her head. lt wasn't a good idea at all. Alena pouted her lips. "Come on Haven, it's been a long time since I've gone out. Besides I don't have anything for you to wear so i can atleast buy one for you " She whined." Raphael won't know at all, we'll just sneak into one of those shops, get a gown and quickly come back. It's as simple as that!" Alena said pulling Haven to the elevator. Haven had no choice but to follow.Besides she's always wanted to see what's beyond these walls, now her good chance. 'Might as well try to find a way to escape from this hell o
LOST CAUSE Lucious stretched his tired body, rolling his neck from side to side to loosen the kinks there. His enchanting ocean blue eyes now looked hollow and tired as he stared at the document in front of him, unthinking and unseeing. His eyes glanced at his wrist watch quickly before he flipped the document closed. He grabbed some paperwork and began signing on them once more, yawning a little with eyes glued on what he was doing. Kai soon walked in carrying some more paper work and walked to the Alpha's table. “ Here are all the reports we've received from all the Alphas like you've ordered”. He said setting them down. “ There's one missing, it hasn't gotten here yet”. “ Which one?” Lucious finally raised his head to look at his Gamma before returning to his work. “ The New Moon Pack's. There’s no news from them”. Kai answered. “ New Moon?” Lucious pack formed a while back?” “ Yes.. Maybe it got caught up or something”. “ I sent the word out three days back. That’s enough
GO TO HIMThe evening sun casted long shadows on the ground, its slanting rays giving a warm orange tinge to the sky as Rosie dragged Haven out of another shop yet again. Excitement swirled in her eyes as they walked down, mixing with the little crowd all heading in different directions. Most of the people seem to be going in the direction Haven and Rosie were coming from though, which made her a little curious. A few of them gave Rosie weird looks every now and then. They hadn't seen her around here before and didn’t smell like one of them either. The way she pulled and dragged their Luna through the crowd made them stare even longer.‘ Who was this strange woman?’ Was the question on all of their minds but none said a word. The Luna looked relaxed around her so they knew she wasn’t a threat.“ Haven, why are they all.. staring at me like that?” Rosie asked a bit uncomfortable from the odd looks she was receiving. “ This is probably the first time they’re seeing you, so its normal
LET'S GO SHOPPING Immediately Rosie heard those words coming from Haven, she shrieked so loud that Haven had to cover her ears. Her eyes grew three times bigger and her jaw dropped.“ What?!” She screeched, grabbing a hold of Haven's hands. “ What did you just say? wait.. no.. say it again, say that again. My ears.. I don’t think I heard you clearly”. Haven looked down, the smile on her face morphing into a huge grin. “ I said, r I am in love with Lucious, I really do love him Rosie”.Rosie shrieked and pulled Haven into a big hug. She jumped up and down, laughing and clapping like a child who’s been given its favorite sweet. She couldn’t believe it! Haven had finally confessed her feelings for the Alpha. Now, everything will fall back in place. Rosie was so happy she couldn’t stop giggling and jumping. She didn’t even listen to anything Haven was saying as she squealed in excitement. Kai would be so happy if he heard this for sure. These two love birds will finally get their hap
IN LOVE WITH THE ALPHAHaven's eyes flew open the moment she said those words. Her size of her eyes were like those of a child who was promised to be taken on a trip to a park but the trip ended up being cancelled at the last minute. They kept expanding without her blinking even once. Her fingers pressed against her gaping mouth in shock of what she had just said.She couldn’t believe it.Did she?Did she just admit to being in love with.. Lucious?Haven's legs quivered and she bit down on her lips as she gaped at the mirror. Her other self was gone. Now , she saw herself, eyes wide open in disbelief. Her hands moved to clutch her chest and she felt her heart beating wildly.“ D– did I.. Did I just.. just say that,” Haven trailed off not believing it herself. “ I– I love him?” Her heart skipped a beat and she gasped as if the realization was just hitting her now.“ I love him?” She asked again but this time, it was more of a confirmation than a question. “ I'm in love with Lucious”.
HER OTHER SELFHaven blinked, staring into the mirror with an expression of both shock and confusion written all over her face. She couldn’t believe it!Had she really gone mad? Her eyes blinked rapidly trying to discern what was happening as she stared at the woman who stared back with a smile.Beautiful was an understatement to describe the features of this woman. She wore a simple white top and a pair of blue jeans which hugged her hourglass figure perfectly. Her almond eyes were as beautiful as the blue sky and her silver hair was packed in a pony tail as usual, the tip stopping right above her waist line. Her porcelain skin glimmered as she stood there staring back at Haven.“ Are you trying to run away again?” The figure suddenly spoke up making Haven gasp and take a step back. Okay, now Haven was sure she’s certainly lost it!“ How much longer do you want to run?” Haven heard her ask again but no words left her lips. The look of shock on her face was now replaced with one of co
RESTLESS HAVEN.Rosie subconsciously swallowed, her hands holding onto her stomach. She never realized she was this hungry still the sweet aroma filled her senses completely. Her eyes were fixed on Kai who had his back faced to her. She watched him make his way skillfully around the kitchen as he quickly tried to cook up something for her.Her heart warmed at the thought. This wasn't the first time she was seeing Kai cooking but someone it always managed to stir up something within her. She felt herself loving him even more. To top it all, Kai's cooking skills were top notch. He was a far better cook than her. In fact, Rosie wasn’t sure she knew anyone who could cook as well as he does. It left her wondering how he was so good at it.Her stomach growled again causing her to grimace slightly. Couldn’t it be a little more patient? She groaned, praying he finish up whatever he was cooking fast. She felt like passing out due to hunger already.Lucky for her, Kai was done soon and walked u
At the thought of being followed, Rosie’s throat dried up. She stopped walking and as if to confirm her fear, the footsteps behind her also halted. Alarmed, Rosie turned to see who it was but the person appeared to be much faster. His hands reached for her and he wrapped them tightly around her, enveloping her in a hug. He lowered his nose and inhaled, releasing a sigh of relief as her scent evaded his senses.“ I missed you”. He whispered in her ears.Rosie let out a sigh of relief, allowing her tensed shoulders relax a bit. She put a hand across her chest, feeling the loud thumping coming from underneath. It took a while for her to finally calm her thudding heart.“ Have you lost it?!” Her thin voice yelled out when she did. “ Why’d you do that?”“ Do what?” He asked absentmindedly. His eyes were closed and he allowed himself be carried away by her lovely scent.“ You almost gave me a heart attack Kai! What on earth were you thinking sneaking up on me like that?!”Kai chuckled. “ Wh
BEING FOLLOWED?“ Haven you really don’t have to run away from me” Rosie screamed stepping into the kitchen, a smirk glued on her face.“ I'm not running away. I just remembered I wanted to boil some water. Dayna told me to always drink warm water because of my sore throat”. Haven replied rightfully.“ I'm not lying”. She added when she saw Rosie giving her a look.“ I never said you were”. Rosie chimed, a smirk still on her face.‘ Seriously?’ Haven wished she could just wipe the stupid smirk off her face.“ So, you suddenly remembered you had to boil water only after you’ve confessed your feelings for the Alpha?” She asked wriggling her brows at Haven who gasped.“ You've seriously lost it! Mad, you’ve gone mad!” Haven couldn’t believe Rosie was still going on about this.“ No, not me. You're the one who's gone mad,” Rosie replied with a frown. “ You've lost it, you've lost your heart to the Alpha!” Her face suddenly lit up as she clapped again. Haven literally face palmed herself
ROSIE'S QUESTION. Haven thought she had forgotten everything. She thought she had left all the bad memories behind. The memories of being betrayed by the one man she truly loved and a friend she could give up her own life for, she believed she had forgotten the painful memories but she was terribly wrong. The more Rosie spoke, the more Haven was reminded of the ugly past she tried to hard to forget.Haven couldn’t afford to get hurt anymore. She would do whatever it took to protect the pieces of what was left of her heart. Even if it meant not listening to Rosie’s nonsense again.Shutting her eyes, she took a deep breath. “ If you wont stop talking to me about this, then i don’t see the use of being friends anymore”.Haven could only imagine the look on Rosie’s face as she heard her gasp. She clenched her fists willing herself to open her eyes. As she did, her eyes fell on a stunned looking Rosie. Her expression held a mixture of both shock and surprise as she stared back at Haven.“
