Standing in front of a full-length mirror, Destiny stared at the lines on her body. Her mother's tattoo had been more like a maze, lines ran apart from each other, but always running parallel. Hers were more floral. It looked like vines had grown all over her body. It gracefully followed the curve of her hips and breast. Likewise, it ran double helices down the sides of her legs and her spine. It flowered up at the base of her neck and was embedded with lotus blossoms. Normally, she wasn't into flowery designs, but this tattoo was fascinating, there was something powerful, mystical about it. They looked more like tribal flowers rather than Hawaiian shirt flowers. That would have been very unflattering.

 Her eyes flitted across the mirror, looking at different parts of her body. Those intricate lines were glowing through her pyjamas.

She caught Jake's eye in the mirror as he settled against the doorway. His body was covered in a similar tattoo, but his lines we

Wow it's amazing how these female characters are made so stupid. Did she forget how he treated her. Straight up told her he didn't want her. But she is so easy to forgive. So pathetic.

  • Alpha's Destiny   Kidnapped

    Destiny was having a nightmare. Or at least she thought she was. Her mother was screaming, chained to a wall, bleeding. She kept calling her name, but Destiny couldn't respond. It was so real, but it had to be a nightmare. She didn't like the way she could taste the metal, smell the tang of blood, feel the misery. No, this was not a place of dreams, it had to be real, but it couldn't be.' Destiny help me, please. Please, please help me. They're going to kill me. Please. Help.'The agony in the voice was unbearable, there was such pain and misery in her voice, she couldn't handle it all.She pushed herself violently up from the bed, throwing Jake's arm off her and waking him up.She threw off the covers and rushed to the bathroom, she could still smell the blood and her tongue felt coated in metal. She splashed cold water on her face, attempting to clear everything away.Furthermore, she was dreaming about her

  • Alpha's Destiny   Back home

    Jake ascended to his chamber. He was unsure what to say because he knew Destiny would be enraged.'I am not sure how I'm going to calm her down.'He could tell Destiny hadn't returned because the suit was empty and the bed was neatly made up. He was lying in his bed, feeling empty, and wondering where she was.Maybe she went to her grandmother's house? But her stuff was still there.When Destiny didn't come up he started to get nervous. It took some effort but he decided to go looking for her. He was thinking that he should just apologize or tell her it was a misunderstanding. Depending on how angry she was with him maybe he'd beg her to forgive him depending on how upset she was with him. He tried to reach out to her. She had blocked him or was not in a condition to reply.Jake became terrified after searching the entire complex, including the school and every other place she had never been in. He practically threw a few wolves out of th

  • Alpha's Destiny   The trouble is brewing

    No way! This can't possibly be true. Destiny's heart was racing and she was gasping for air. She was in the midst of a full-fledged panic episode."Take her inside." Her father gave the order.She was starting to have a funny feeling in her stomach. She reasoned that the trip was making her nauseated and dizzy."Can you tell me where Heather is?" Michael stated matter-of-factly. Once Destiny was gone.David gave the man a friendly grin. He was well aware of the wolf's thoughts. "Why wouldn't I keep my half of the bargain, my friend?" he asked, with a horrifying smirk on his lips. "I wouldn't want to deprive you of a lifetime of self-loathing because of what you've done." He found it amusing."Now, if you don't mind waiting in the entryway," David added.***************Jake was in the security suite at the time. Destiny had been discovered on the footage by security. His gut was sinking into his hea

    Jake parked his pickup in front of the main gate. The gate had been lowered. Rodney was without a doubt already on the scene. Jake's best option would be to try to sneak in because Rodney had numbers and positions. However, Jake had the advantage of knowing the forests and hills far better than Rodney ever could.The orders had already been sent to the pack. The ladies who couldn't fight and children were hurried to the safe house. If Rodney was able to breach the defence, therefore Serra was left behind to guard them. The men and women piled out of the vans, stripping off their garments and shifting their bodies. They walked along the wall in various directions. Jake, Sam, and a small handful of others set out on foot through the front gate.Jake and his companions made their way to the standing stones. They shed their garments as they proceeded, yet they remained human for the time being. They were going to follow Jake's lead. There was no attack right away. Rodney, Ja

    Sam took a cautious approach towards Jake. He could see he needed to be careful based on his expressions. He knelt by Jake's side. "You took a hammering. Do you think you'll be able to walk to the clinic on your own?"Jake remained silent. He only returned his stare."How many of us are dead ?" He inquired."A few," Sam said grimly, "but I haven't counted them yet."Jake instructed, "Take the injured to the infirmary and make arrangements for the cremation of those who have died.""All right," Sam murmured after a long sigh of exhaustion. "I'll despatch someone to return you to the suit. I understand you haven't bothered to pay close attention, but you don't appear well." He swallowed his saliva and cleared his throat. He lowered his voice."Didn't Dr Connery mention he created something to aid in the healing process?""I am fine," Jake brushed him off.Jake's betas went to work assisting the injured.

    Destiny strained to break out of her bonds. There had been the figure of a shadowy man in her room for a few brief moments. Because the other males in the room didn't react to him, she felt she was the only one who could see him. He went about the room, looking for something as if he was trying to figure out what was going on. She tried not to respond when he got closer to her.He then touched her, and she recognised him. She noticed the golden coloured threads encircling her body reaching out past the shadowy man to... him.....Jake!He was seated in a chair, and the threads drifted through the air until they came into contact with him.Jake! She muttered. Is he able to see her? Was she dreaming once more? She looked in horror as the vision, or whatever it was, faded, straining to hear what he was hurriedly saying. As he departed from her view, she felt a wave of despair wash over her.She muttered faintly, "Nooo...""What?" Deman

    "Hurry, for the love of God! The clock is ticking, "Jake hissed angrily. "If he touches her, I swear to God, I'll-""You need to relax, Jake," Sam said. "We need to achieve this without any violence if at all possible. Don't let this turn into a bloodbath, man! Again.""How are we going to do it?" Connery inquired."We arrive, divide up, seize control, and put an end to the fucking mating. Because I am her mate, no one can dispute my claim. I doubt we'll encounter opposition, but if we do, kill them."Jake shrugged his shoulders.Dr Connery stated, "You barely escaped with your life, Jake." They had just vanquished Rodney, he was correct. Even with his super-healing, Jake was still weak."I'll speak with the Alpha; he won't be able to refuse my claim to my mate. That would be tantamount to breaching a fundamental law." Jake remarked.**************Destiny waited for her father, dressed in that dreadful gown. Her mother had a

    Destiny was in a daze. She followed her mother after seeing her hurry towards her unconscious brother."Chris?" She screamed."I didn't kill him, so he'll be fine," Jake stated calmly.She looked at Jake with wide eyes.Long wounds had been scratched into his cheek, but they were mending swiftly. Blood was also visible in the corner of his mouth."He only has a chance to live because of you. I didn't want to begin our life together with your family's blood on my hands."Destiny stood by and watched as Chris was wheeled away to the hospital."I just... I had no idea you'd find me in time. What were the chances of that happening? I mean what were the chances of that happening?" She remarked this as she approached Jake. She then saw his battered appearance. He seemed a little more frazzled than normal, and she sensed something else."What happened, Jake?" She inquired.He sighed but d

    Grace grasped her chest and dropped the stack of plates she had been holding. His heart was pierced with pain like a live wire. She sank to the ground, doubling over in anguish."Grace!" Before her head hit the floor, Arthur went up to her and grabbed her."What's the matter, Grace? Speak to me!" Arthur remarked.She became conscious of what had just happened as she glanced at the ceiling."David...David is dead!" she exclaimed, a deadpan expression on her face."What? How did you figure that out?""I felt it," she struggled to find the right word, "we were still linked by the mate bond. I could feel it snap. My chest continues to pain." She clenched her fists over her chest.Arthur's phone rang as though on cue. He answered the phone and then looked at Grace."David is dead," he whispered.***************Chris awoke in an unknown room as he opened his eyes. He was trying to sit up as he gazed around

    Roxy's vision dimmed and her throat constricted as she heard a terrible snap. Chris's body rebounded off the hood and landed on the ground, his head thudding into the concrete. Blood streamed from a wound on his head and out of his nose and mouth, and his legs flopped at odd angles. The truck slammed a parked car as it skidded out of control, bending the fender towards the tyre. The truck tried to get out of the plaza at a considerably slower pace.Roxy screamed at Destiny and dashed over to Chris. She sank to her knees slowly, her hands fluttering above his body, wanting but afraid to touch... dear god, there was so much blood and it was everywhere.Jake and Sam arrived shortly after Roxy, with Destiny standing guard over her."It's...Dad..." Chris moaned, his face twisted with misery. "It's the same vehicle... it's camouflaged... I saw it... there's a barn out back..." His eyes rolled up in his head as he exclaimed."Damn it, you're paying attention to me

  • Alpha's Destiny   Regrets

    The first bursts of hunger pangs hit Chris as he was driving through the town. He was supposed to meet a friend at the square, but he decided to stop for a bite to eat while he was in the area instead. There was nothing to eat at home. They were surviving on takeaways and the occasional frozen meal. He had considered learning to cook, but if his father had caught him doing what he considered to be 'woman's work,' he would have blown a gasket and thrown a fit. He was starting to get tired of fast food. He had not realized how good his mother's cooking was until now. He didn't want to admit it, but there was a lot they took for granted when it came to Mom. He wished there was some way for him to communicate with her.But that was not an option unless he wanted to be dragged away from their territory in a body bag by his people. Jake would kill him.He couldn't hold it against him. As a result of what he had done to Destiny and his mother... damn it, he was ashamed. And he

    "I know you'd come to my aid at any time, Roxy." Destiny tried to lighten the atmosphere with a grin."I just can't imagine it," Roxy said, shaking her head. "I just can't imagine it. Even though Sam wishes to strangle us daily, our men would never hit one of us.""Well, I might change my mind if Serra keeps annoying me," Sam said with a laugh."Are you ready to go, ladies?"Sam followed them out to the garage and into the house. Jake accompanied them and kissed Destiny on the cheek goodbye."It's a pain in the arse, but please don't cause Sam any problems, Serra. He's not your friend right now; he's acting as my second in command instead. Obey what he says," Jake instructed.As Serra placed her hand on Jake's arm, she said, "We know that, Jake. We will not do anything that could endanger Destiny, and while we may verbally harass Sam, we will never disobey anything he says. We are aware of the situation.""Good. I just wan

    "It's late; are you prepared to retire to your bed?" Destiny asked Jake."I'm not sleepy," he stated emphatically."You're probably too preoccupied with wearing a hole in the carpet to be sleepy. Please come to bed, my mate." She said patting the space next to hers."I'm just going to toss and turn. It's pointless for both of us to be awake all night." He grumbled and paced around the room."Who brought up the subject of sleeping?" she said, smiling deftly at him.He came to a complete stop and turned to face her."Ahh... now we're getting somewhere."He walked over to her and embraced her with his arms wrapped around her. Just thinking about losing her had turned his insides into a mess, and it was making his stomach hurt. The thought of trying to live his life without her filled him with dread."I don't want you to be concerned about me all the time," she whispered, clearl

  • Alpha's Destiny   Chris's dilemma

    While one of the wolves was content, the other was not.Chris had not yet communicated with Roxy. Chris dialled Roxy's phone number with trembling hands, only to receive her voice mail. He did not leave a message though. He was desperate to get a glimpse of Roxy. It was just desperation... and with good reason. Mr Mac's homegrown tomatoes were sitting on the kitchen table, ready to be eaten. The flea market was the only place where you could get your hands on them.He couldn't figure out why his father was constantly blabbering on about some accident that had never occurred. And how dissatisfied he was with the results."Can you tell me what you're talking about?" Chris inquired.David muttered. "Someone tampered with the car brakes, of your sister's car.""Oh! Is she found? How did you know if it ?" Chris inquired. He was intrigued as to how his father had come to know about it."I heard something about it at the flea market," D

  • Alpha's Destiny   Finding clues

    After Eliza left, Destiny and Jake went to the police station to fill out the reports and answer questions, the same questions asked in different ways over and over again. The detective was a wolf that Jake knew in passing and had a good reputation with both the humans and wolves."Again Detective Clark, I didn't see the man who tampered with the brakes," Destiny said for the 100th time."And it wasn't a truck you'd seen before?" Detective Clark asked as Diego, a beta from Wolfgang shook his head. He was the sole eyewitness and was fed up with answering questions."I couldn't see the plate because it was covered with mud, as was most of the truck, and I'm not colour what colour it was either. It might have been white, silver-grey maybe grey. It might have been a GMC or a Chevy. And it did have those black-out windows.""What did the driver do again?""Flicked a lighted cigarette out the window. The smell of gas was strong, and that had me wor

    1 hour back in time -"Damn whore," he said under his breath. "Take a look at her in those small shorts and that tight blouse, which emphasizes her slim figure. I'm curious as to how many men she fucked."His gaze followed Grace, Destiny and the other woman as they walked to their car and unloaded their belongings."Take a look at all that stuff?" he muttered shaking his head sadly. "Wasteful. There's no need for all of that nonsense. And who the hell is with her? That's right, it's Grace's mother. So she also lied to me about her parent's passing."As he stood there watching the three women go away, he cracked a terrible, twisted smile on his face. He must have had a lucky break because fate had smiled upon him. He hadn't intended to visit the flea market today, but there was a stall selling locally produced tomatoes that he couldn't resist. They were unquestionably the greatest in the county. After ten minutes of searching for a parking spot in the fron

    A week had gone by. There were no threats, no attacks... nothing. Jake gradually let down his defences. When the phone rang one morning, Jake was in the kitchen.Jake said, "Hey Rebecca.""Hey, has Destiny gotten up yet? I was hoping to speak with her.""She is, please bear with me for a bit. I believe she is outside.""All right," Rebecca said.He walked over to Destiny and handed her the phone. Destiny was watering the potted plants on the back patio early in the morning.Destiny said, "Hey Granny. How are you?""Well, I was planning on going into town and was hoping you may be interested in checking out that new little shop that just opened. I wanted to take out Grace. Then I suggested that we go to the flea market and then grab some lunch.""Oh yeah, I saw they were opening today. I'd love to attend! Let me check with Jake to see if he has any plans for us today."Destiny hid the phone behind her.
