"Are you okay?" He asked; his voice calm and soft. He cupped my face and just by asking me that question tears welled in my eyes. His face fell as he saw my distress and he hugged me, burying my face in his neck.As his arms wrapped around me, tears flowed more freely. At that moment, there in his arms, I felt safe. Safe to cry and not be rejected. Safe to relax and let out my pain. I felt warm and embraced on every level of myself. I had cried before, but this time, I let myself cry until I felt spent. His arms felt like security right then. They felt like a warm blanket fresh from the dryer on a cold day."It’s okay," He says resting his palm on my back and rubbing it slowly for comfort. "Jason is just being silly, everything will be fine. I promise"I sniffed as I tried to agree with him by nodding, the steady rhythm of his heartbeat and the familiar scent of his leather coat calming her down. He rested. "Just calm down, everything will be fine." He assured.I needed to cry, to r
Last night, I didn’t see Jason, you know, after what happened. I thought he was too mad and might have decided not to come back home for the night. I wanted to go ask Alex if Jason was back or if he had eaten his dinner but didn’t; Jason wouldn’t be happy if I left the room. He gets very upset because of that. I just hope this end and he be the person he has always been. While sleeping, I felt something on my legs, I wiggle my leg to drive it away. It just goes away for a second but returns. I change my position from lying on my side to my back. I could easily open my eyes and drive whatever it is away but I am too sleepy to do that. I barely got any sleep last night even though I went to bed more than early, I didn’t have a much comfortable sleep. And I couldn’t open my eyes except I feel this thing has legs. Which would mean it’s an insect, but I think it’s the edge of the blanket or something. It feels soft; that’s why I am not bothering to open my eyes to remove it. I bend my kn
I rest my back on the bathroom door as I whimpered till I fell to the ground. I don’t want this, I don’t ever want such arguments with Jason. I hate the fact that we are in this position just some days after the proposal. Why? Why? Why did things turn out to be this way?I dashed into the shower and the hot water from the shower loosen my strained muscle as I wiped my tears away. I took a quick shower not wanting to stay long in there. After the shower, I head to the closet and took out the first clothes that caught my eye. A blueprint gown; casual and simple. I took black flats to go with it and I didn’t bother to do any makeup or hairstyle. I just simply sprayed the hairspray on my hair and combed it briefly.As I walked out of the closet and into the room, I was invited by a strong sweet aroma of sushi, my favorite Japanese dish! When I reached the center table, I have to admit I was quite impressed with what I saw. My eyeballs almost popped out, and the food on the table graced my
"I was thinking, why don’t we hire the best wedding planner, in town," Noah said for the fifth time and I nodded as I did the last times he suggested something like that. "Maybe the best on the ranch, I mean we don’t have to go outside the ranch for a wedding planner, right?"I nodded "Great. She’s a werewolf, so she knows the best things necessary." He continued And that made it worse. She’s a werewolf, seriously, why on earth will I want a werewolf as my wedding planner?"Maya is very talented, by the way, her name is Maya, and she-""No wedding planner, Noah." I cut him mid-sentence "I want to keep things simple." I said. I always had the dream of making my wedding stand out and be the talk of the world but right now, I am not feeling it anymore. I just want to have a quiet wedding with just family and a few friends."Okay, simple wedding it is but I tell you, I know this planner that can make things simple but stand out." He said flicking through his phone for more wedding photo
I walked out of the elevator before it could close and walked in, I did into the living room where Noah and I were sitting. Just when I stepped in, I noticed Noah wasn’t sitting on the couch. Where the hell did he go to? As I turned around, I saw him walking toward the kitchen. Looks like I wasn’t the only one who got tired of sitting. Before he could get any further, I called out his name making him turn to look at me expectedly. "I’m back," I say to him walking in his direction "So quick?""Yeah, I thought about something, so I just had to come back" I said once I approached him He looks at me and then bends to open the fridge, he brought out two bottles of orange juice and holds one up for me "You want some?""No thanks." He shrugged and kept the other bottle back inside the fridge."I actually wanted to ask you something about Jason" I said He hold his hand up indicating for me to stop talking as he gulped the orange juice. "You want to ask me about Jason?" He raised a questi
It turned out that Jason is in a very good mood, too good that I am sitting on the bed with him and my back is resting on his chest. He seems to be very relaxed and happy, too relaxed that he decided to read a book with me. And shockingly it was his idea. I didn’t even plan to read a novel today but since Jason wanted to read a novel with me, I will read it with him. I flip through the pages and softly gasped at a glance at the sentence. This book got me thinking hard, seriously, the suspense, drama, and a whole new level of emotions and love. Damn! I love this book. I have been looking for another interesting book since the time I finished that last one and I guess I did.Flipping onto the next page, I suddenly heard a low moan coming from Jason’s chest. I turned back to see him with his eyes closed, and his hand resting on my waist. He looked very cute. "Are you sleeping?" I asked; smilingHe sniffed my hair before opening his eyes gently. "No, not at all.""Your eyes were closed,
It’s been a while now since Jason and Alex left, I don’t know whether I am worried or scared. The wolves growl are scary and the way Alex rushed into the room makes me worry. I guess both emotions are what I feel now. I tried so hard not to leave the room anytime I hear a growling noise but the sound seems to be very loud and I’m scared that Jason might be hurt. I sat on the couch with my notepad on my thighs. I wanted to distract myself from thinking so I decided to encircle my ears with music and then do a little bit of sketching, I don’t know what I’m sketching out but calms me down. An idea popped into my head and took off the earpod with excitement. For the very first time, I had a clearer view of what I wanted my wedding dress to be like. It’s so beautiful but I guess it doesn’t really matter since the wedding is a few days from now and I can’t design and get it sewn that quickly. I exhaled and continued drawing, it won’t hurt if I just draw it out.Soon after I started drawing
IVY’S POVI am so happy for Noah, he found his mate and literally can not take his eyes off her. Well, I don’t blame him, she is beautiful but I know she will freak out when she regains consciousness and see him looking at her like that. "Don’t you think you tell him to give her some space?" I whisper to Jason as we were approaching them"Nah, I don’t think so and besides they look great together." He responds "Yes, they do but don’t you think she will freak out when she wakes up and sees him staring at her." I definitely know that if I were to wake up and see a stranger staring at me, I would freak out, hit him on the head, and kick him in places he wouldn’t think I would."She would but- I don’t know" He shrugged "I know how Noah is feeling right now, he is so happy, and even if I tell him to give her some space he wouldn’t.""Okay, but I’m just saying, there is a high chance of him getting kicked in his crock if he doesn’t give her some space""No, I don’t think I should tell him
~IVY’S POVI woke up dazed, trying to absorb my situation without opening my eyes. My eyeballs slowly moved around as I tried to recall what resulted in my situation. "I picked you up from the streets and this is how you want to repay me? This is how you want to show your gratitude?" I heard Jason’s voice chipping in the background. My eyes were still shut, as I began making a humming noise. I can feel my temples hurting and I could swear that headache wants to take over. "You were nothing but an unidentified unwanted object, I picked you up, I made you who you are today and this is what I get," Jason yelled at Alex. A loud growl followed his sayings and I whined a little, finally peeling my eyes open. My eyes were slightly hazy but once it was cleared, I turned to where Jason's voice was coming from. Jason was standing at the edge of the cliff and Alex was standing in front of him. Alex was in his wolf form and Jason in his human form. I don’t remember being here but I do remembe
~IVY’S POVJason turned into the wolf that killed Evan- my late boyfriend, the first man I truly loved. I stared at him, wide-eyed, and my breath halted for a while. It felt like the whole world was breaking crumble apart around me. I didn’t move an itch or even shake, I just stood there in total paralysis without even realizing what was happening. I can’t believe what I’m seeing, it’s like my eyes are deceiving me. I refuse to believe what I’m seeing. That cannot be possible, it can’t be. Jason can’t be the same as the wolf that killed Evan. My breath went short and I couldn’t feel myself anymore. My head feels cloudy and my heart just shattered into pieces. I can’t believe I fell for the man that feasted on my boyfriend. Jason is my sunlight and I had just realized that my sunlight had been burning me. Tears streamed down my face as the image of Jason metamorphosing into a wolf flashed across my eyes. It feels like death and in the same bereavement, it chokes the breath from my bod
~ IVY’S POVI woke up dazed, trying to absorb my situation without opening my eyes, I slowly start to make a low hum sound, quickly identifying that an air-conditioned fan was running. Taking a deep breath, I slowly peeled my eyes open. I touched my temples feeling a sudden pain in my head. I closed my eyes sighing and then attempted to stand on my feet only to realize that my feet were restrained with pieces of bulky metal. I watched my ankle for a moment and realized I was chained and trapped; completely trapped. I was confused as I question what it was. Why would I be chained or held up like this? My anxiety stormed through me when I realized that I was unable to do anything for the chance of liberty because, with those chains, I don’t think there is a way out of there.Fuck! Why the hell am I chained up like this? I tried to move further a little bit but these chains still restrain me from doing anything. I don’t know if I should be worried about Jason or terrified as to why and
Just as I got to the back of the house, my jaw dropped in shock as I saw Alex laying on the ground."Alex!" I screamed rushing toward him. He was unconscious. How did he get here, what happened to him and where is Jason? I turned him around grasping at the sight of blood on his forehead. "Oh my god! Oh my god! This is bad, very bad." I muttered looking around for help as the thought of what to do wandered into my head."Noah, Jason," I called out hoping for them to be somewhere around. I gotta find help but I can’t leave Alex here alone. I knelt next to him and lay him on my lap, I took off my bridal veil and began cleaning most of the blood. "Alex, Alex." I patted his face trying to wake him up but he didn’t. Oh my God! I don’t know what to do. I don’t want to leave him here, especially because of that blood surfing around his face but at the same time, I need to get some help."Alex, hold on. I will be right back." I said to him. I know he can’t hear me but I just thought it wou
~ ALEX POV"What the hell are you doing, Alex" Jason groans as I dragged him with me. He instantly tugs his hand away from my grip pushing me away."What the hell is wrong with you?" He groans"The hell is that, I’m fucking confused. Everything seems to be so fucked up." I hollered "You are sick, Alex. You dragged me out of there just to tell me about your fucking problem!" He points at me "You listen, Alex, I am getting married today and I don’t want any fucking disturbance or problem, you hear me?""Fucking disturbance, what you are doing out there is the damn fucking problem." I yelled "What did you say about my wedding?" He pinned me to the wall but I instantly backed away. I didn’t bring him here for an argument or quarrel. I decided to keep my words and anger to myself because I can see Jason is very mad. He is likely not to be in his senses right now and any damn thing I can happen if I mess with him but I will take the chances. I’m not letting this wedding happen until I cl
~ALEX’S POVWhy do I feel drawn about this wedding? I mean I was very happy and excited for Jason and Ivy to get married but now, I feel the opposite of that. I don’t know why but I feel like something is about to go down and no one will like it. I got out of bed and headed out of the room. I wanted to help Jason with his outfit and Ivy, well I will be walking her down the aisle. When she asked me to do that, I was happy but at the same time, I felt like that isn’t something I should do. Telling someone to walk you down the aisle is a very important part of the wedding but I just felt like, I shouldn’t be the one to do that but of course, I didn’t tell Ivy no, I just had to say yes. I halted my actions of walking to the guest room when an amazing scent hit me. Smelling the scent I felt like I have been struggling to breathe all my life and I had just had my first taste of proper air, like I could literally breathe after being submerged under water all my life. I broke into the spirit
I can’t believe today is the day. The day I have been waiting for. The sun is shining, everyone is happy, and I am happy. The birds are chirping, and everyone is excited because I am getting married. I am getting MARRIED. I can’t tell you how excited I am today. I have been waiting for this day and now that’s here, I can’t be any less excited. The wedding is meant to be on the blood moon but Jason thought it will be better if we shift it forward and now we’ve decided to get married a day before the blood moon. I woke up from bed with a broad smile on my face, I stretched my arms and a yawn escaped my mouth. Yesterday I told Jason to sleep in one of the guest rooms because I heard a saying that says; brides isn’t supposed to see their groom the night before the wedding although that didn’t stop Jason from seeing me. He sneaked into the room to see me but chased him away in an instant. I walked over to the curtains and dragged them open. The rising sun cast a rosy hue across the morn
My conversation with Noah’s mate didn’t go as planned. She is tougher than I expected. I tried to calm her down and talk to her but she threatened me and not only that, she said she will kill me. That’s right, she is a psycho. I am presently standing, my back pinned against the wall, my arm bent in a way that is not meant to be and my neck- well, a piece of glass is threatening it. "Do you still want to keep telling me that stupid story?" She asked bringing the glass close to my neck. The stupid story she’s referring to is the truth about Noah and their pack members. She thinks it’s stupid and thinks I’m trying to mess up with her. "It’s not a stupid story, I’m just saying the facts" I managed to say after gulping down the lump in my throat. "Fact, Huh!" She scoffed "Fact or not, get off my neck," I said looking into her eyes. She’s not wicked, she’s just cruel "No, I will not." She began trailing the piece of glass slowly on my face. "I enjoy doing this." Okay, I take back wh
