ALPHA ROMAN'S POV A slight knock pulled my attention to the door as it pulled open.” Roman.” The familiar voice resounded in the room, and I stared up at her smiling face.” Do you need anything?” I asked, leaning in my seat and she shook her head strongly. I sighed, I thought as much; Vincent had already taken care of everything, starting from her basic needs to the mansion, which I was sure was done by now.“ I'm ready to move into the mansion,” she said, and I stared down at the documents before me.” I will help you get by.” I closed the file and stood on my feet.” You don't need to bother if you are busy.” she said, but I still left my seat and started towards the door.” I hope I recall all my memories very soon.” She said and I couldn't wish for something else. I also hoped she would recall everything as soon as possible; I needed to get to the bottom of the matter once and for all. “ I will try my best and remember everything about that night.” She assured as she stopped an
ALPHA ROMAN'S POV “ Roman, my stuff…..” “ Zion will help you with anything you need.” I turned and said to her before striding out of the mansion with Vincent behind me.” How long has she been there?” I asked hoping she was okay.” A few hours have passed.” He replied and felt like punching him in the face, so why the fuck was I just hearing about it? What if something bad happens to her?This wasn't fucking happening. “ She is with three other students.” I didn't say anything as I was currently getting inside my car.“ Shouldn't we bring a few warriors with us?” Vincent climbed in the driving seat.” Take the main road.” I instructed, ignoring his question. I didn't want to think something had happened to her, but she was in danger; the rogue forest wasn't a lively place for a pack wolf. Rogues were malicious creatures, and it would take them only a few seconds to sense Bella's strength and see her as a threat.” I don't think we should go there alone ““ What, do you think I can't p
ANNABELLA'S POV“ Where is everyone?” I asked as I dropped down the stairs and pulled a chair for myself by the dining table. I wasn't expecting to have the room to myself or eat alone as those days seemed to be long gone. “ Alpha Roman already left for his pack duties,” Madeline's voice rang from the kitchen, which I already knew. He wasn't beside me when I woke up and it was easy to guess where he was, not like it was his first time disappearing after a night.” And as for Miss Juliet, she has already moved out.” she added and I stopped steering the cup of coffee before me.” She moved out?” as she moved out from the pack?I turned my head to my back, my eyes fixed on the entrance of the kitchen with a confused expression on my face.” Did she leave the pack?” I inquired, a part of me hoped she left the pack for good because ever since I laid my eyes on her, I have never had a good feeling about her.Madeline walked out of the kitchen with a tray of cookies and a small smile plastere
ALPHA ROMAN'S POV“ What the hell are you doing?” She asked her eyes moving around the place as if scared that someone would see us.” Taking you back to the packhouse, of course.“ I replied coldly, shifting my eyes to look at her with a smirk on my face. I could feel her body going numb in my arms. “ I will get there by myself.” She said, but I didn't make any attempt to put her on her feet and instead continued to walk down the road towards the pack house.” Roman, what are you doing?” she half yelled, realizing I had no intention whatsoever to put her down. I was done being patient with her; she should have fucking listened to me when I told her to stay the hell away from Diago's brother.Fuck, why was I even pissed?I couldn't believe I was being this possessive, but I couldn't help it, especially when that boy was still around her. Last night, I unconsciously saw a message on her phone that made my blood boil, and it pointed to Diago's fucking kid brother, who seemed to be close t
ANNABELLA'S POVI was disappointed when I found out we weren't going to spend the day together, but after he left, I thought of it and decided to go to his office because I thought he might be busy with work and pack duty.I could already imagine the look on his face once he saw me. I dropped my bag on the bed but suddenly had a second thought. What if he wasn't at the office and he had gone to a meeting?I doubt Roman would leave the pack without telling me, but it could be an emergency.I bit on my lip and sat back on the bed. For all I knew, he wouldn't send me away once he saw me.Staying in the house during school hours seems to be the most boring thing to do. ‘ You should make yourself busy.’ Eve suggested, and I thought she was right; maybe it wouldn't be boring after all.I headed downstairs and switched on the television. There were a lot of channels, and since I wasn't the movie type, I didn't know which one to choose. I switched from one channel to the other until I found
ANNABELLA'S POVI felt a warm touch on my shoulder as I stood under the shower. But relaxed when I sensed his well-known smell, the smell that wouldn't escape me even in my deepest sleep.” Did you decide to lock me out last night?” He whispered behind my ears as his hand creased my bare shoulder, his cold lips touching my ears.I shut my eyes, the familiar feeling shaking my inside and my stomach crowded with butterflies. Heat pulled up at my bottom and I could feel my legs go weak.” I- I didn't…….”“ You can't talk now?” His hand slipped down to my arm, and I swallowed hard as he forced me to lean my back against him; the warm shower wasn't helping my heated body cool down. “ I wasn't angry to see the door locked last night, but I was when you ran out of my office like you did.” He whispered, and I squeezed my eyes shut, my lips pressed together. ” I don't blame you for locking me out but I.” My eyes pushed open; maybe it was wrong to be angry with him, but why didn't he tell me it
ANNABELLA'S POVToday's lunch break was the shortest, at least, that was how I felt. I was really enjoying my time with the girls, but the bell had to go off, and I didn't have a class with any of the girls aside from Wade.' Ahhhh,' Eve growled internally, showing her discomfort, but what was there to do? I was the type to skip class, at least not because of him.When it was time for the last class, I packed my books and headed to the lab. It was the same class I shared with Wade Jackson, the bad-boy player. I didn't know why I was not into biology today, maybe because I was a little bit distracted. I couldn't wait for school to be over.A sigh left my lips as I sat in my usual seat at the corner of the lab, ready to start the last period, which was standing between me and Roman's surprise.What could it be? I didn't know what to expect but I knew Roman wouldn't disappoint me.The teacher entered in no time and started the class. Biology was one of my favorite subjects, so I norm
ALPHA ROMAN'S POV “ What will happen when Juliet recovers her memories and finds out she is your betrothed?” Vincent asked, but I didn't have any answer to that. I did know that but I did know that Bella and I wouldn't part ways, at least not in this life. We were fated mated and that would never change.“ You don't know?” he sighed. I fucking didn't but that didn't mean I would let the past fuck up everything for me. Juliet would have to accept that I fucking have a mate who was going to be my fucking Luna. Once she completed college, I would announce her position to the entire pack, and from there, she would take up her duties.“ What about you send her out of the pack first?” Vincent suggested but that wasn't a fucking option.I still needed to find out who killed my father and his Luna. Frank, my uncle, was a suspect, but who else was involved? I knew Frank alone wouldn't be able to pull that plan and he wasn't a fucking black wolf. I was the only black wolf in the entire regio
ANNABELLA'S POVI leaned on the sink after rinsing my mouth. A loud sigh left my lips as I stared at myself in the mirror.What was I doing to myself?I should be out of his pack by now, I mean not after what I just found out. Wasn't that enough reason for me to leave for good? I pushed my hair back and let out a breath; I was confused myself. Finding out the man I was fated to be mated to left me in so much pain, I felt broken and lied to.Living with her as his step-sister when in actual circumstances, she was his mate.I blinked a few times to hold back my tears. I stared at myself one last time before walking out of the bathroom.Roman was already gone, the table was empty and the waitress was gathering the plates. “ Excuse me…” my lips hung open when I saw him leaning against his car with both his hands caged in his pocket.” Sorry, thank you.” I said to the waitress I just interrupted and headed out of the restaurant.“ Are you okay?” He pulled the car for me, and I nodded my h
ANNABELLA'S POVHush breathing, violet eyes, and heavy toes colliding with the cold ground.Running in the woods like an astray dog, moving in circles like I had nowhere to go. Eve was silent and I was hurting. Did I have anywhere to go?I was so lost in the good feelings and the comfort of the mate bond that I didn't realize how alone I was in this life.I stopped to look back at the pack; the Turners pack was the only place I could call home because I had nowhere to go and no one to run to.I have never had a real home aside from this place. Was I going to lose this place, too?A tear slipped from my wolf's eyes, the pain was too much for her to bear alone. The familiar feeling was back in my stomach; my chest was clenching, and my eyes were heavy.We could have killed Juliet back there and left the pack in an unknown place so no one would find us and punish us. Eve wanted to do exactly that but I didn't want to stain my hands with her blood because she wasn't worth it.Was I not
JULIET'S“ Get out of my room!” a loud possessive growl that poured out her throat and resounded in the room like a thunderstorm. Her wolf was staring into her eyes; her eyes were glaring gold, and I felt my shoulder shake and my feet move back on their own as my eyes stared widely at her.What the hell was it with her?I couldn't believe my eyes or what I just heard.My feet took another step which I wasn't aware of. My whole body seemed to be reacting on its own, but I immediately covered the drat in my eyes with a frown.My hand fisted beside me.I didn't like the way she was intimidating me and my wolf. My wolf, Tina, might not be the strongest, but she wasn't supposed to be intimidated by a little girl. I refused to let her take what was mine; I was the one supposed to bear his mark and not her. I showed a strong face even though I was trembling inside.Tina was scared of her and I could feel her hiding behind the back of my head like a damn coward. Who the hell did she think s
ANNABELLA'S POVI heard Wade let out a low growl, but that didn't stop me from walking towards him; it was a voluntary action after all; he was my fated mate.I heard Kelly giggle as Roman swept me off my feet. I wondered how he knew I was here, did he also know that I didn't go to class today? I hope he didn't see Wade and Hens because that would be like a broken promise. I promised him I would stay away from Wade and then Hens but then why did I make that promise when there was nothing to stay away from? Wade and Hens were part of the group so I wonder how that was possible. “ Don't move.” His cold, deep, stern voice stopped me from moving as he placed me in the back seat of his car. Why was I suddenly feeling weak?“ How much did you drink?” He asked and I opened my eyes to look at him.” How much?” I repeated his question and I could tell he didn't like the way I was treating his question.“ I don't know, maybe a few glasses.” He hemmed as he tired the seat belt around me.” Hey,
ANNABELLA'S POV ‘ Rogue ‘ “ Are you okay?” Wade asked as he touched my shoulder, pulling me out of my thoughts.” Get inside, I will be right back. “Just as the words left his mouth, the door busted open, and a giant stinking brown wolf stood there, right at the entrance with a drool slipping down its mouth. “ Bella!” I heard Kelly's voice, but she stopped when she noticed the rogue at the door with the others. Wade pushed me behind him as he shaded me with his body. I didn't know why, but I wasn't the least scared, maybe because I have a wolf who could heal any kind of injury.“ Will you be okay?” I held my head in my hand, I watched Wade peel his shirt off his body. “ Let's take it down together,” I said with enough confidence, my gaze sitting on the rogue before us while I tried my best not to pay attention to the pain I was feeling. “ You are drunk.” He whispered, turning his head slightly to look at me.” My wolf isn't.” I replied and he grabbed my wrist.“ Maybe you should go
ALPHA ROMAN'S POVJuliet's injury wasn't that serious but it turned out her wolf was a slow function wolf. She barely got hurt but her wolf wasn't able to heal her.It has been hours, but there has been no improvement. I even thought taking her out on a ran could help since it works for most, but it was no use, as I realized at the end of the ran. Her injury seemed to be getting worse, and since it was a rogue attack, it was no doubt infected. “ Is it necessary I see the doctor again?” Juliet asked as I opened the car door for her. I didn't know if she truly didn't want to see the doctor or if I was the one overthinking things.” We can't have it infected.” Rogue attack couldn't be taken lightly especially when the injury refused to heal.Her wolf was too weak to heal her, and I guess that was because it was a slow functional wolf.“ Are you hungry?” She asked when I started the engine.” I will take you to get something after seeing the doctor.” I said as I drove on the main road towa
ANNABELLA'S POV“ Hey, Bella.” Kelly and the other were standing outside the parking lot carrying their bags, which was unusual.” We are skipping school, coming with us?” John asked and I turned my head to look back only to find Zack's car had disappeared. “ Come on, you can't possibly stick around here. It's going to be boring without you. Let's go have fun, it just for a while.” Kelly took my hand and my gaze went to the rest of the group. Kiran was present, so was Florence and, of course, John.” Okay.” I said and Kiran shrugged with a smile. “ We will leave in a few minutes; the bus is almost here,” John announced, and after a few minutes, a white minibus stopped in front of us. “ Girls first.” John stepped aside after pushing the door open, and I could hear Kiran giggling. I sat with Kelly, and Florence was behind us, alone on the seat of two. Of course, Kiran had John to pair with, and they were on our left side. “ She is a bitch.” Kelly whispered to me, and I didn't need to
