||Ahana||I felt airy almost as if I am floating in the air and light as a feather but then I blinked my eyes in horror as I could feel I was actually in the air but then relaxed when a hand touched my forehead."Ahana"A woman's melodic voice drives my anxiety within seconds and soon my feet touched the ground, eager to investigate that voice but something was stopping me as if an invisible was standing in between her and me which seems unnatural."Who are you?"I asked, trying to heed her voice so that I can find her but there was an eerie silence instead of her presence which unsettled me because my soul could feel an undefined connection with her."Don't bother to find me, Ahana" Her voice tingled my ear again.There was desperation in my soul to find her but I couldn't because of my blindness and clueless about everything around here cause it sure feels like heaven."Why?" I asked, stepping further but again invisible energy pushed me back."Before I answer your questions, Close
The air was cold, the wind harbouring a frosty harshness. The breeze is riled up, and harsh across the skin of a man who was standing in the middle of the town square surrounded by several cabins and villas.Dim, grey clouds clump together, blanketing the daylight and painting everything a dull grey. The Colour seems to be stripped away from nature. The leaves seem limp and flaccid. The trees are drying, with trunks that are crumbling and deteriorating.The soil is lifeless and no longer provides life, now instead trapped by a thin layer of white frost. The sun is almost disappearing behind the high peaks of the snowy mountains so there was no hope left.All supernatural beings whether vampires, werewolves or shapeshifters were gathered on the ground facing that man who was wearing a red cloak over his sleek navy suit while wearing a subtle smile on his soft rosy lips."I, Nicholas Night grateful to have you all with me today," The King of werewolf addressed the crowd.The crowd was s
||Ajax||The sharp cold wind abruptly hits us both, noticing her shivering, I quickly went to close the windows unable to infer the sudden change in nature."Ajax?"Her voice interrupted my thoughts and looked at her, her stunning face was shining brightly in the room lights as the night was getting darker as if a storm is coming which is unusual but possible."You were saying, you don't believe in werewolves, right?"As soon as she nodded her head, I jumped right onto the bed in my wolf form, my teeth blaring right at her as my eyes were ogling her surprised face but something wasn't right."Ajax!"She gasped when I nudged my face near hers so she can feel my furry skin and heard her shuddering as her eyes were roaming back and forth making me confused that why isn't reacting the way I expected her to.Can't she see that I turned into a wolf right in front of her?Is she blind?Annoyed, I shifted back into human form and sat in front of her.My hands clamped her fragile shoulders as
|| Ahana ||I can feel that I am lying on something cold yet very mellow that was coercing my eyes to flutter but they were still heavy so I could barely manage to open them and slowly looked around, as usual, I could only see some blur things but realized I am in a room and then it hits me.Last night when Ajax left, I remember that..."Who the hell he thinks he is, bloody bastard?"I screamed right after he left but there was no point since he was gone while leaving me with several unanswered questions.I remembered the way something bestial climbs on the bed and nudges me as if there was truly a beast like a wolf in front cause I could feel his snarl, fur and skin brushing against mine which certainly gave me goosebumps instead of scaring the shit out of me.I felt like there was something inside me growing and wishing to lunge at him which sounds weird but I am certain, it sounds absurd as supernatural beings only exist in fiction, not in real life.Then suddenly I felt the window
||Ahana||Silence, there was only a pause from my side as his words are circling in my head and I stood there unchanged, with a straight face that was facing the king who has just told me something beyond my imagination that I find hard to believe but at the same time, my heart is propelling that he won't lie to me and that he is honest."Ahana, do you trust me?"He asked calmly and I hesitated but before I could answer him, he touched my shoulder."Give yourself some time, there are so many things you don't know"I nodded, unable to question him, and followed him wherever he was taking me.I heard the sound of the door opening and felt his large palm on my smaller back as he nudges me to not fret as long as he was with me which strangely calmed me."Sit here"My eyes ogled the blurred figure of a dining table maybe we are here for breakfast or lunch? As I have no idea what time it is.Reluctant, I sat on the soft cushioned chair and felt him sitting beside me which unnerved me since
||Elijah||The bed is cold when I woke up, my eyes were heavy from headache as I had too many drinks last night to ease my concerns over Ajax who is being irrational and claiming Ahana as his when he knows that they are impossible to be together whether it is for pack reputation or his.But there is another feeling rising inside of me which is driving me mad as I am feeling possessive toward the girl whom I am supposed to treat and had brought her here in trade for my brother's safety from Grandma who hasn't expressed her true purpose yet.My eyes look around my room as it was still dark, the curtains were drawn over the windows and the glass doors that open to the porch.Sighing, I look at the clock and noticed its past seven and still, nobody came by to visit me which is weird since Aspen is always the first person whom I used to see in the morning.Is something wrong? Is she okay? Why the hell am I feeling like she's in danger?I am already pissed at Ajax for not letting me meet he
|| Ajax ||The atmosphere was tense around the meeting room, there were eight essential members of the pack sitting around a table, that was dark in color.They all were watching me as I was sitting quietly on the ruler's chair with my hands on the table while sighing continuously as my eyes were ogling them with a menacing glint. My expressions were stoic and expressionless."Flair?"I frowned when an annoyed woman strikes inside the room with dignified steps and sat right next to me.My eyes darkened even more as I was infuriated with her earlier behavior and now she's doing the same by invading a confidential meeting with my pack members over Ahana who has been missing since last night.The table went quiet as they all were now staring at Flair who was not even bothered with all the attention she was getting right now."Aspen!"I quirk my eyebrow at him and he quickly nodded at me."The first thing we needed to discuss is about our human guest from India who has been missing since
|| Ahana ||"Ahana," The King's satin-like voice reaches my ears.My eyes roamed around and then fixated on the man in front of me who was only a few feet away from me.Inside, a storm of qualms was stirring - his words are still circling in my head and making me question his intentions towards me and the sole fact that why I am unable to defy him.I could feel his dark eyes fixating on me, intense and light as the moon, but we were surely unreadable. I don't know what he was thinking. But I had an idea that he must be planning his next strategy as I have already understood he's more than he appears to be because his reality is not what he has shown to the world, it lies underneath him that is forbidden to even look for."What do you want from me?"I could feel his gaze darkening even without sight, if I had sight and could see which way he is looking at me - it surely would have given me nightmares."Come with me," His tone was dry.I knew he wasn't asking me but demanding me to go w
|| Ahana|| The strong smell of cold mint hits my nostrils strongly, conferring me the presence of King Nicholas who is closer than I can expect him to be. We'll meet soon until then I want you to trust yourself, it's a goodbye for now. His voice again unnerves my head and I sighed heavily, slowly reaching the grounds I think, to search for him as I could no longer feel him. "Ahana?" I halted after hearing Elijah's voice, he instantly reached me I could hear his footsteps and now he was just behind me. "You okay?" He asked me in his concerned laced tone that thawed my heart but at the same time, it wasn't enough as I wanted more comfort than he could provide me. I am not sure of anything from this moment as everything is damn so complicated yet exemplary at the moment, the more I think of it the more I feel connected to it, werewolves, spirits, and everything supernatural fascinates me. I am not scared instead I want to know everything including the truth about myself. Nicholas
||Ahana||It was all hazy, vision blurred but soon everything cleared as I discerned myself sitting on the porch stairs but then my eyes expanded and were shocked to glimpse that I was ten years old not twenty-one, my body was lean, hands skinny yet attractive which reminded me of my younger self yet confused me as I could see everything and had no idea how?Is this one of my visions? No, it seems more like a memory."Ann!"I turned my head to see my mom staring at me with an annoyed look on her face as her finger raised to gesture at something behind me."Take him on a walk, now" My eyes flickered at our family dog who was wiggling his tail, "So stop sulking on the stairs as it's almost time for your training, so be fast"I couldn't help but pout at her and stomp my feet before taking dodo with me towards the garden but to my curiosity, I decided to walk further and entered the woods, the stillness of my surroundings was giving me nightmares, my small feet staggering while walking bu
|| Ajax ||It was like my breathing stopped the moment she collapsed on the ground, completely paled and weary. She was shivering as well as her lips were trembling which contorted my heart and wasting no time, I swept her into my arms and ran inside the bedroom.Laying her gently on the bed, I moved away and looked at Elijah who was anxiously looking at her and then glared at me."It's your fault, Ajax"I raised an eyebrow at him, slightly taken by his accusation as he had never talked to me in this tone before."What are you saying?"I rolled my eyes, paying no attention to him as she needed me.I cupped her burning cheek and felt her shudder but soon she relaxed under my warm touch and nuzzled against my palm like a pup that withered my heart in ecstasy."You decided to come here, to leave her alone in the pack just because you wanted to keep a close eye on King Nicholas who didn't do anything wrong by telling her the truth about our existence Still you doubt him"My eyes turned qu
|| Aspen || I returned to the pack after the heated argument after dropping that human girl to her rightful owner. Honestly, I had no personal problems with her as she genuinely deserves respect and regard for being badass for kicking Flair's attitude ass. Still, the sad reality is that she's going to be our Luna sooner or later and it'll be a matter of time when she'll rule us. When I passed the garden, I could feel everyone's eyes on me as I am the coldest of all in the pack, and never showed any affection to anyone except my siblings. "Beta, everything is going well with the ongoing preparation of the mating ceremony" "Okay" I didn't even look at the omega in front of me as I am not used to making any talks and as I am a private person except for the pack matters or it's about our Alpha who is also my lovely big brother Ajax. With a calm gesture, I dismissed him and went inside my den - to see him precisely. When the door is pushed open by me, I saw him curled like a ball and
|| Ahana ||It has been a week since I returned, a week since I had shared an intimate kiss with Elijah and received an unexpected kiss from Ajax.I'm missing them both, don't know why but I feel like there's something wrong since I haven't heard from any of them. They didn't even bother to see me which is unsettling me more.What's wrong with me? I sincerely think caring for Elijah is acceptable but Ajax? Why do I even care for him? He is a narcissistic asshole who deserves my hate not care..."Ann?"I blinked my eyes when I heard a finger-snapping in front of me and realised that I was zoned out."Is something wrong?"I shook my head, not even bothering to answer her and was about to leave when I was unexpectedly shoved to the ground and felt an immense pain driving through my back to my whole body.That hurts...I tried to get up but two hands pressed me to the ground again which made me groan in pain."That hurt, uhh"I heard a chuckle but couldn't defer who is she except for her
|| Ajax ||Something was burning inside me, my entire body was fuming with anger but subsiding it, I entered the gym and started running on a treadmill, not caring about my wounds and later quit it."You are hurt, Ajax"I turned to face Flair who is looking annoyed as she was rolling her eyes at me."I can see that"I grumbled, walking towards the window to take a deep breath of fresh air because I am feeling suffocated and lonely.A part of me is unable to understand these strange feelings and another part of me knew what I was feeling but wasn't able to describe it which is making me more anxious than before.I wanted to stay by her side, to let her know that I cared for her that was the sole reason I accepted the duel but couldn't since I can't be selfish when it's about Elijah, he has always been precious to me and can't snatch his happiness when he deserves everything he wishes for and I'll do in everything in my grasp to give him what he wants."Ajax, you have changed"Her voice
||Elijah||The weather was awfully bad, the clouds were clattering wildly as if a storm is waiting for us but then my thoughts were interrupted by the screeching sound of the cars.My eyes flickered over at Ajax who opened the back door of the car and cradled the girl I was worried about, in his arms protectively before making his way inside without giving a glance which upset me but I suppressed it and went inside after them.Fresh blood was oozing out of Ajax's bicep but he didn't care at all like his eyes were at her, solely worried for her as she remained sleepy in the cage of his arms.Aspen and I joined him in the room where he gently lied her down on the bed and turned to finally look at me.His eyes were blank when looked at me, it felt like his soul has left his body which concerned me but I remained quiet as Aspen was giving a side glance to not ruin it."She's all yours"That was all he said before brushing past me, leaving me dumbfounded.My eyes met Aspen who was silently
||Ahana||I don't know why I am feeling this irritated with him when I was supposed to be glad that he doesn't want me to do anything with him as he can not be ever that man whom I wished to have in my life but he is the one who gives me butterflies whenever he's near me.Why can't I just stop feeling like this and now my self-respect is binding me not to accept my feelings for him?And my life has turned into a maze since I entered this town where I have started questioning my existence because I can feel that I am no longer a human, not even that girl who used to cry about being blind and now not even scared of living among supernatural beings.And Elijah, what about him? Where do my feelings stand for him and where does Ajax stand in my life?Uggh!I am already frustrated for not having these answers and now these illicit sensations towards Ajax are making it hard for me to resist him, even being sightless isn't helping me in ignoring him."Ahana"The King's voice startled me and I
||Ajax||"I wish you lose"Her wish shattered something inside me, making me feel like a pathetic being who just lost something precious that he never wishes to lose in the first place.Her eyes were blank, they were only reflecting her hate towards me that I deserved but at the same time, I wanted her affection but lost it, the moment I said, I don't want her.She left, lending me a disappointed look. Her boldness is another asset of her character that I have been admiring since I met her while pretending that I don't care.Remember, Ajax you're doing this for your brother...With determination, I left and almost moved into someone but balanced myself, and then my eyes locked with icy white ones which were continuously blazing at me."Greetings, Alpha Ajax"King Nicholas Night's lips curved into a mischievous smile as he stares down at me with disdain that I have never witnessed in anyone's eyes before him."Your Grace"I bowed my head in respect and averted my gaze off him to not gi
