Blake:I ran my fingers through my hair as I paced around my room. My mind went wild with thoughts as mixed feelings filled me. I didn’t understand what they were, but all I knew was one thing. I didn’t like them, not one bit.The feeling I felt when I was around Natalia was all too familiar that it both pleased and disturbed me. Pleased because it gave me a sense of peace which I’ve only felt with one woman before, and disturbed because I knew that I wasn’t supposed to feel it with her. The woman who I felt whole with was gone, and no one on this planet was going to replace her.“You need to calm down before you end up cutting off your own hair” Ares said in my mind. My wolf has been silent since my beauty had died, and yet, he was now calm, in a good mood even. That wasn’t a common thing when it came to being an Alpha, one who was both shattered and enraged.“What is happening? Why am I feeling this way?” I asked him.“For someone who's been through this process before, I’m surpris
Natalia:“Stay with me, Blake” I said, holding his injured neck. His eyes rolled to the back of his head “Blake, focus on my voice”“Myla?” He asked. I frowned in confusion but didn’t comment.“Blake, talk to me, keep talking” I said softly “what’s your name?”“Blake Knight?”“Good, choose a number” I said quickly. I had to keep him awake as not to have him enter a coma if he lost consciousness.“What?”“Just choose a number” I said. Again, his eyes rolled to the back of his head, but I gave him two slaps on his cheek, wanting him to stay awake “choose a number, Blake”“Seven”“Good, now choose a color color?”“Black” “Natalia?” Mason’s voice broke my train of thoughts. I looked at him to find him holding a pair of shorts and a shirt. However, his eyes widened when he took sight of the blood pouring from his Alpha’s neck and shoulder. The man’s blood covered my clothes, but I couldn’t care less at the moment. I just knew that we HAD to get him out of here before he lost any more bloo
Blake:I growled at Natalia as the two of us looked at one another. Her ocean blue eyes remained fixed on my emerald green ones. Her eyes were wide in both fear and worry, not to mention her racing heart which was throbbing against her ribcage. But nevertheless, she still got down on her knees in front of me. Extending her hand as she showed me that she was just trying to help and that she wouldn’t harm me. I couldn’t miss her shaking hand as she feared my reaction, but she didn’t move, she wanted to help me, and was showing it in every possible way.“Please” she begged. Her eyes stayed on my own, I growled again wanting her to stay away. I wasn’t stable, for now, I was in my wolf form, an injured wolf is far more dangerous than a normal wolf. The woman was crazy for being here.“I won’t hurt you” she tried again. This time, she slowly got closer to me. I growled again, exposing my canines. She hesitated for a second, but still kept her hand in front of me “I just want to help you, i
Natalia:I ran my fingers through Blake’s dark brown hair as he slept. His chest peacefully rising and falling with each breath he took. His features were finally calm, and the IV needle in his hand. His body having given up on fighting, the man finally got a little rest. His body’s temperature finally settling to a normal one, the man was no longer sweating or shivering with each breath he took. I couldn’t help but smile in contentment at the thought of him healing.My eyes stayed fixed on him as sparks ran through my body. The fact that I knew that he could have died had I not arrived on time made my heart clench with fear. Fear that I didn’t understand, nor did I try to. But everything seemed to be messed up anyway, from the sparks that I felt when I was around him, to the pain I felt seeing him in pain, I couldn’t understand any of them.“Natalia, you need to eat something” Ryan said, handing me a plate. I have been here since yesterday, only leaving Blake’s side to go to the bat
Blake:My heart raced against my ribcage as Ares came to his senses waking me up. The effect of the Wolf’s Veil running out of my body as I opened my eyes. My eyes searched the room which was once filled with her scent.I couldn’t help but growl when I saw Ryan sitting beside me.“Alpha?”“Where is she?” I asked angrily. My eyes scanned the room for her, but she wasn’t there, not that I didn’t know that already. Her scent wasn’t in the house, and it seemed like it hadn't been there for a while now.“What?”“Where is my wife?” I growled before shifting out of anger. The fact that she had left because of him angered me. She had stayed the night by my side when I was in my most dangerous state. When even my pack feared entering the room to help me, she took the risk and did it. Having heard his whole conversation with her, I may have been unconscious in the sense of being awake; however, I was completely conscious as I heard everything that happened around me.“S-She went to work, Alpha
Natalia:“Mine…”I stared at Blake with wide eyes. His own eyes not leaving mine for a second before I smiled and turned my attention to the bandage which was in my hand. I put it on the wound, careful not to hurt him before stepping back and looking him in the eye.“Do try not to rip this one, and if you do, let someone clean and cover the cut for you” “As long as you’re by my side when I wake up, there’s no need for the bandages to get ripped off, right?” Blake smirked and I raised an eyebrow.“What are you up to, Blake?” I asked “what’s all of this? Up until two nights ago, you wouldn’t even look at me, and now…”“You took care of me when my whole family feared approaching me. They would have either left me in the state that I was in, or they would have watched me die. You didn’t leave my side despite me kicking you out, you stayed here” Blake said taking my hand, he intertwined our fingers, or more specifically, tried to; however, I pulled them back before he could, making him fr
Blake:I smiled when I heard my wife’s footsteps as she approached my room.She knocked the door twice, making me smile “come in”She walked inside the room to look me in the eye and shake her head when she saw me waiting for her. Food was already placed on the table which I had the maids prepare for us “come on, let’s eat while the food’s hot at least”“You do realize that you could have left the room and walked to the dining room, right?” Natalia asked, looking at the table while crossing her arms over her chest. She looked around the room which the maids have fixed up in the past few hours as to be comfortable for me to stay in while I healed. The fact that I had to stay here didn’t mean that I needed to stay here with it being a disaster.“Yes, but that would have meant having dinner with the whole pack, and that wasn’t the intention of all of this” I said, pulling her chair back for her to come and sit. However, she quickly put her hand over mine not wanting me to do it “you’re s
Natalia:My eyes fluttered open as a feeling of warmth settled inside my body.However, that didn’t last long when I noticed that I was laying on top of a chest, an arm was wrapped around me, and that chest had a bandage over it.I sat up quickly only for my head to throb as the aftermath of alcohol kicked in. “Easy” Blake said gently. He sat up and put both his hands on my shoulders, softly massaging them. My body relaxed for a second before I processed that I had slept in his room, on his bed, and in his arms “Natalia?”“I slept here last night…”“Yeah, you got a little too drunk, and I couldn’t carry you to your room” Blake said motioning to his injured shoulder, chest, and neck. “I was sleeping on your chest, Blake! What if I hurt you?” I asked. Blake smiled at my concern before he cupped my cheeks which heated as I processed the whole situation.“Hey, relax, you didn’t hurt me, and I wanted you sleeping here anyway” Blake said, assuring me. I could tell that he was trying to ke
