Jacob agreed, feeling worse with every second. He didn’t know what was happening to him but he could sense that his bones that should have been mended till now were still the same as before, in fact, it seemed as if his bones have been set on fire or something. Because of the pain, he was no longer breathing through his nose but instead he parted his lips trying to move his body as less as he could, cursing once in a while when he heard Levy knock into something or another. “ Can’t you drive a bit more carefully?” Levy turned to look at him with glaring eyes as she was trying her best to drive straight on the road. She twisted her neck slightly and snarled at Jacob, “ You do it if you are so clever.” She hasn’t driven a car for like ages, and the SUV that Jacob bought was even harder to control than the cars she was used to, here she was trying her best and he was making fun of her. Because she turned her attention away from the road, Levy sent another trash can flying in the air
Levy watched as her father stiffened and took a step back, sheathing his claws as he looked at Logan warily, though he was a lot bulkier than Logan, her father was not half of an alpha male as Logan was, with just one glance that Logan shot his way, her father sucked in a breath and lowered his head. Coward, she cursed her father inside her head before turning to look at Logan whose gaze was locked on her, she did not want to explain herself especially not to Logan but she could sense that Jacob’s consciousness was slowly fading, with three of his bones broken he must be having a hard time staying conscious. He looked at her with those exceptionally blue pools of nothing but sexual tension, she waited for him to blow up like a small bomb but as seconds ticked by he said nothing for a while she almost lost herself when the awareness that has been getting harder and harder to ignore started to throb between them. It was nothing different, this was something that she was used to but w
“ Are you really as stupid as you look or is it that your IQ has been dropping after the snapping of the mating bond, knowing how little you cared about our mom, I think the breaking of the mating bond should hardly have any impact on you.” Levy couldn’t help herself, she was just too tired of being blamed for things that she didn’t do and for things that were not in her control. Mavis disappeared? Not her fault. She manifested the powers of a witch also not her fault but she was blamed for everything that went wrong in the pack including the malfunctioning of the sprinklers, she might not care about whether they liked her or not but that didn’t mean that she wasn’t going to care if they continued to blame her wrongly. “ You, how dare you talk to me like that?” Mister Harlow frowned, she could see the annoyance flashing in his eyes like he couldn’t believe that she was doing something as disrespectful as going against him, if she was being honest she has always been scared of her
“That’s not what I am doing here!” Her father snapped so hard that he sent spit flying all over the place. “ I am just trying to keep my son safe from treacherous monsters like you!” “ She is not a monster but my sister,” said Jacob, he didn’t raise his voice like their father but she could hear the firm authority in his voice as he sighed and looked at their father. “ I am done listening to one-sided claims where everyone points at Levy and call her a monster, murderer and whatnot… I need to see a decent piece of evidence before believing what everyone has been telling me.” “ She was with Mavis when that accident happened what more evidence do you want?” “ Like I said,” Jacob took a deep breath as he looked their father in the eyes and repeated his words. “ If you want me to believe that she is the murderer either bring me the body of the person who went missing or either bring me valid proof that I will not be able to deny even if I want to, I have listened to you and everyone e
Levy believed that she knew Logan but as she strode inside the lodge with his figure that was barely an inch away from her, she realised that she was really wrong. She did not know him as well, as she thought that she did because if she had known him then she would have also known that he was a rather overprotective man who didn’t listen to a thing that others have to say. Well, she did know that he was overprotective given he wouldn’t let Mavis go anywhere without a guard but that was a protectiveness that was understandable. On the other hand, as he chased after her with his build that was hardly holding in the rage that he was feeling—- that was completely different. He has been walking a step behind her and despite her moving around completely fine, he was treating her like she was going to break any second and that only pissed her off even more. She was an alpha female even if she wasn’t as strong as the other alpha females she was much more dominant than others she-wolves. Be
Levy would have loved to scoff and call him an idiot who was thinking too much but she couldn’t do it, even though she hated to admit it but she has always been slightly jealous of Jacob who was adored by their father for not being a mage, unlike her mother who tried to be the impartial parent, her father was simply all about Jacob, just like tonight.He has blamed her without even listening to a thing that she had to say, only caring about Jacob. Not once did he ask whether she was all right or not, not that she wanted him to care about her, she was no longer someone who would want to take any sort of grubs left on someone else table. She swallowed her curses back, she knew that if she showed that she was angry then she will only be agreeing with what he has said, so she turned around and looked at the cauldron that was heating on the stove and poured a generous amount of snake’s wine. “ I don’t know what you are talking about, do I look like I care about what he does? To me, he die
If Logan was being honest, even he has never once heard of a case where a shifter would hunt down humans to prey on them, they might be beings who relied on their instincts but they were human enough to rein on their beasts and keep them under control. For a shifter to attack a human without any reason was unheard of and in the majority of cases only shifters who have turned rogue would do something as cruel as that but as Levy and Jacob told them, the cougar shifter never once shifted into his beast form for him to turn rogue. So either the shifter was ruthless enough to do something of that sort or he was simply crazy. But something about this entire thing made no sense to Logan, his instincts were telling him that there was more under the surface they could see but this wasn’t his problem, though his beta was attacked that alone was simply not enough of a reason for him to go down several rabbit holes and provoke god knows how many shifter territories and what was even more troub
Levy was prepared to close her eyes and sleep but then someone knocked on the door of her room and she sat up straight on her bed, at first she thought that it was Jacob but when she pushed herself off the bed and crossed the room to open the door, she was surprised to find out that the person who was standing on the other side of the door was not Jacob but instead it was Logan, she rolled her eyes and crossed her arms as she said, “ You know I did feel my nose feeling itchy but for once I tried to think that it was not the case of bad news and all given that I was at home and everything seems to be in order as well, you just told me how wrong I can be alpha.” She paused before leaning against the doorframe and asked, “ What do you have to say now? If you are here to warn me to not get close to Derek, I have already done that but he just doesn’t seem to listen to me,” with a slight top to bottom look, she added. “ In this matter, he is quite similar to you, don’t you think so?” Loga
