Arya's POV I felt a hand on my shoulders and I jumped. I turned swiftly.“Kelsi!” She burst into laughter.“What's up with you? You've been jumpy all evening, you okay?” I hissed and walked away. She followed after me.“Wait up Arya” “What? I told you not to do those things but you wouldn't listen” I went on looking away.Kelsi went quiet. She knew I was already pissed at her. “I'm sorry babe” she muttered.I turned to her. “Sorry for yourself” I grabbed the drink in her hand and walked away. I could hear her cackle while I moved. I smiled. That babe knew me all too well.I took a sip of the drink. Turning my head around. I couldn't find who I was looking for. My heart seemed to be at ease as I drank.“Come join us Arya” it was one of Kelsi's friends from the company. He and and some other people were playing ping pong.I smiled shaking my head. “ I'm good, don't worry” I went and sat on a cushion. I heard some rich laughter. I didn't need anyone to tell me who that was. I star
Arya’s POV I woke up to the cool breeze blowing away my curtain and the sun peeping into the room when the breeze had stopped. It was serene and beautiful. In this artistic way, peaceful way I cannot explain. My brain dredged up events from yesterday and the smile deepened. I couldn’t believe that was Jake. I mean how he know I was there and most importantly, how was he able to come to the club, in the middle of the black moon pack. I thought Chase banned him or something. Then I recalled it was a costume party. Of course no one would know the alpha of the east high pack was there. I stretched and let out a deep smile. A smile began to appear on my lips.I couldn’t believe it. For the first time in a long time I felt fully rested. Not half. Not little. Not almost. Fully rested. I felt this peace from within and right there and then I knew that the day would be an awesome one. I put on my slippers and went to the bathroom to take a leak. After I was through, I put on some music. R
Arya’s POVWe sat in silence as we watched nature. Just like that time I was with him at the club. And for that I was grateful to Jake, he was begging for forgiveness or saying that he was a changed man.After a while I yawned and he stared intently at me. I ignored him but when I couldn’t take it I turned it him. “You are staring”“I know” he smiled. “It’s making me uncomfortable” I said. “I am sorry and I am not” he said. I narrowed my eyes at him. “You are a beauty to behold. I looked away, my cheeks already in flames but suddenly I remembered what he did with my sister. He must have asked her out with his smooth words. I frowned. I could see my subconscious calling me a word that sounded so much like stupid.This time the frown deepened, I felt annoyed at myself that he could get me with just words. I scowled. I began to stand up from the mat. “Hey you okay?” he asked standing up immediately.“Fine” I snapped. Jake stared at me. “Doesn’t look like it”“Well better believe i
Arya’s POVTwo days later I heard from Kelsi that the alpha was going to be back. I knew I had some hard ass apology to do. So I went on to write a letter and another and another. I slid them all underneath the door of his room. That way he wouldn’t say he didn’t see them. I just wanted to appear as apologetic as ever.I wanted to stay at my house but I changed my mind. In any case if Chase came, I would first see him, so I decided to sleep in Chamberlin’s room. I told him stories and slowly he fell asleep and so did I. then as usual, I began to dream.***************************************************************************************************As the horse galloped, I jumped along with it and I could feel like as if I was in the clouds. It's been a while since I became this happy and this free. All of a sudden the horse stump onto a big stone. I yelped in pain and I threw myself back. I fell with a thud and hit my head on the ground and I jerked.******************************
Chase’s POV I tried to imagine Arya making her way to my study. Is she as remorseful as she claims? Well I have to see about that. While I stood in front of my window as I watched the rain beat down my window, I was lost in my thoughts. Her letters and the pictures I was shown when I came back were like two parallel lines that wouldn’t meet no matter, how you try.The little feet and the slow breath and the sweet strawberry perfume told me she was in already in my room. “Lock the door behind you” I said without sparing her a glance. She did just that and came to stand behind me. We stood there in silence. No one uttering a word. I enjoyed that moment. Just before voices went high on octaves. And when I said high, I meant mine because I was going to be the one doing the screaming and not her. “Chase I —““It’s your highness” I retorted sharply. I turned immediately or see the shock on her face. “Did you not call me a beast?”Her face fell like a pack of cards. I struggled to hi
Don't come near her Chase's POVI paced my room. A thousand and one things ran through my mind. How could Arya talk to me in that manner? Wasn't she meant to be the one begging? Remorseful? What has gotten into her? Maybe somebody has been filling her head with lies. I could only think of one person and one person only.Damn! Why did I have to be away? Staying away has caused me alot.I slammed my hands on the table. Who knows what lies Jake must be feeding her. Immediately I grabbed my phone."Angus meet me outside the palace, we need to go somewhere!" I put the phone down and grabbed my coat. Somebody is going to get it this time.****************************************************************"Your highness where are we going?" Angus asked as he got into the car.I sighed. I didn't say a word. Angus glanced at me as he pulled away from the palace."It's an errand" I said. " Follow the path the gps shows" I had input the location before Angus came. If I actually tell him where
Jake's POV I growled. Pacing. I looked up to see them. My men were staring at me. They could be confused on my decision not to follow or attack Chase." What are you staring at!" They immediately looked away. None of them dared to stop Chase as he made his way to me. Cowards. "Your highness should we go after them?" One of the men said. I turned to him. I stared at him till he cowered like a dog that has its tail in between its legs. Then I walked into the house.I slammed the door behind me. Who did that stuffed shirt think he was anyway? To warn me. To threaten me. I was Arya's first love. If course she was sired to me as a omega. My only anger is that, the bond is not complete. I haven't mated with her. I have to do that. That's the only way she would be close to me. She would ebfn follow me around like a puppy but then again Arya had her virginity broken by that idiot. Chase is really getting in my nerves.I will show him. It's just a matter of time.“You’re back early,”
Amanda's POV "Where are you going?" My friends asked me ad I began to dress up."Home"They exchanged looks. "Don't tell me it's because the alpha scolded you" one of them asked. I scoffed." You say that like I'm a little girl that cries over everything" I picked my bag off the ground." Bye ladies, see you tomorrow" I smiled and walked of the room and the palace.I had to do something. Anything. To help the alpha. He doesn't have information about Arya and alpha Chase and right now, I couldn't go back to the black moon. Pack. I have to do something. On my way I made a few calls and I knew where to get my Info.****************************************************************I got home and sank my self into the bathtub filled with milk. I hummed a tone as I lazily washed myself. This was my routine whenever I had to meet men. I had beauty baths in milk from time to time. Well that was the only part of my routine that took most of the time.With the snap of a finger, I was out of th
Arya's POV " Wine?" I glanced down at the glass and back at Chase. What was he planning? Was he going to make me drunk. I took in a deep breath and looked into his eyes."You are staring" he muttered as he stepped closer. This time I didn't run. For whatsoever reason, I stood my ground "I know" I replied. His eyes roamed around my face and rested on my lips and back to my eyes..what was Chase up to? I had come to home with the aim of fighting with him. Arguing with him. But he was the opposite. He proposed peace. He surprised me, despite the history we had. I could swear he was never going to speak to me again, but he surprised me.To some extent, I began to feel guilty. The last two fight we had came fresh in my head. "Wine?" He said in a breathless voice.I sighed for the one millionth time. It would be unfair to still give him the cold shoulders and those one word replies."Okay"Chase stood up and went to the winery at the side of the kitchen. He filled my glass with wine an
Chase's POVI followed her to kitchen and pretended to get something from the fridge.I noticed she didn't want to look at me. That was weird. I moved closer to her and she in turn moved back. Hmm that was strange. Where did this come from? I needed to know why." I have never seen you this angry at me. What is wrong?" I asked.“Why are you avoiding me?” I said taking a step closer. She didn't say a word, though it looked like she wanted to. The silence stretched and I waited for her to speak but she didn't. Then she turned around, backing me. Finally I had enough.My voice cut through the silence like a blade.Arya didn’t flinch. She didn’t turn either. She kept her back to me, hands on the countertop, pretending to be busy with nothing.I took a step closer.“I asked you a question.”“I heard you,” she replied, tone flat, without sparing me a glance.“And?”“I answered.”“You didn’t.”Another step. Now I was behind her, close enough to feel the tension radiating from her shoulders.
Amanda's POV I moved on with my life. At least I tried. I saw me plunging, my head into work, and everything that came along with it, it felt like it was trying to drive me crazy. I sighed deeply as I got into the elevator to go home that day. Looking myself in the mirror like walls, I could see the boredom and tiredness staring right back at me. Suddenly the only person in the elevator just left and it’s just me. When I was beginning to inch over my thoughts like a measuring tape, I remembered something.“oh I have to call Chanel, today is her birthday” as I fished out my phone from my bag, my phone rang. It was the birthday girl. “Hi Ama!— Chanel’s voice boomed from the other side of the phone— so how is my baby girl doing today? How wanted to know how my best friend is doing today? Chanel asked.I Chuckled. “ Hmm I’m just there, just in the elevator. Heading home, starving and can’t wait to get home”I went on to tell her all that transpired that day at work. Chanel as usual
A changed Alpha or lover Amanda's POV Ever since Alpha Jake went out to see that bitch, Arya, he had completely changed. He no longer gave me attention. The last time he came back and was all smiles. He told the maids to prepared a new room. It was probably for Arya. That bitch was coming back.I felt stupid. Used. I was the one in love with alpha Jake not her. I left the palace and began to work outside but he still didn't notice. I was serving a customer food and saw a couple. It brought back memories. Fond memories of I and the alpha.*****************************************************"**Alpha Jake and I stood in front of the mirror, brushing our teeth together. He finished first, rinsing his mouth and spitting into the sink, looking extremely sexy.He gave me a devilish smirk as he put his toothbrush back onto the countertop next to mine. “Ready?” he smirked and wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.“As ready as I’ll ever be,” I joked and smiled as he walked up behind me and g
Chase's POV"Drink this your highness" I looked up to see Angus shoving a glass of juice in my face. "For what?" I asked as I looked at him. Angus took a sot beside me. " your Highness you have not been yourself lately look at you you have dark circle is under your eyes" he said. I picked up my phone and looked myself. He was not lying. I sighed.I haven't been sleeping well lately. In fact the night mares were back. Ever since that argument, that fight I had with Arya, I have not being myself. Yesterday I had asked about Arya but I was told she left the pack. Jake had come pick her up. That was made my mood go from bad to worse. Too many sleepless nights and Nightmares knocked me on my ass. I was exhausted and rubbed my eyes. I shit my eyes and wished this was nothing but a bad dream. But the more I thought about it the more real is seemed.I sighed again, taking a sip of the drink. " it doesn't matter how I look like now, all I want is for her to be safe" Angus nodded. He too
Arya's POV Just like I expected Kelsi was waiting for me at home.I sat through Kelsi's words. She didn't spare me at all. She poured her venom on me. I had tried to make her understand but she was not having it." Please hear me out" "No!" Kelsi almost yelled. She gasped recognizing how loud she was getting. " No" she said, taking in a deep breath and then she looked away. I wrung my hands on my lap, like a little child who was being scolded. Kelsi can get like that when ever she gets angry.With how pissed she was with me, how could I tell her I was almost raped. How could I tell that Chase was cursed and brought me here to heal himself. It was not because he wanted his heir or anything. He had his selfish gains."So why did you tell me you were going to end things with Jake?" "I ended things with him""Then why did he come here yesterday?" She said standing, her hands on her waist. I sighed. I stood too."I don't know " I shrugged. " You know how he comes over without telling
Arya's POV The ride back to the black moon pack was a bitter one. Even the calming nature of the river Chile couldn't do anything to make my mood better.After listening to what Jake had said I couldn't have the strength or mental capacity to think about my near rape incident.I had thanked Jake profusely for saving me from that man. He said I took longer from getting back from the bathroom so he decided to go look for me. He heard muffled screams coming from the men's bathroom and he burst in, only to see me lying lifeless and demand was about to take off his clothes. I shuddered listening to him talk. Assuming he was not there what could have happened to me. And when I asked him about the scars and bruises on his body, he went quiet. He didn't want to say anything until I pressed on. Then he told me everything.At first I was angry that he could go and threaten Jake. What the hell does Chase take me for? His toy? His property? I was never his to start with. So why will he go and
Arya's POV My eyes fluttered open. There was light coming only From my left and right. I blinked. Where the hell was I?Where was chamberlain? He's on a holiday at the human side. Good. Chase? Angus? None of these people could feature in my last moments. I sighed. For a moment I just stayed still. My head was pounding with a rhythmic pain. What happened? Was I out drinking again with Kelsi? I searched my brain but I couldn't find Kelsi in my last moments. What the hell happened.I closed my eyes. Trying to remember. And I sure did. My eyes snapped open and I sprang up. So it was not a dream. The man touching my thighs and all. I turned my head frantically. From the look of things, I think I was in a car. Yes. I looked down. Wiggled. I felt no pain. Even there were no scars either. So what happened?Wait who's car is it then? That was when someone turned around from the passenger seat and stared at me with a bright smile."Finally you are awake!" She shrieked. I squinted."Who are
Arya's POV I forced down the bile in my throat as I made my way to Jake's car. This time was not like before. I walked to the car in shame and pain. The reason I wanted to see Jake was that, he wouldn't leave here without seeing me. He was as obstinate like a goat when he wants something and for the first time I could see what my actions had done. Maybe forgiving Jake and meeting him was not really the best. Now he has gotten the idea I was going to give him another chance.So the intent of meeting him was quite simple. Talk to him to end all these bullshit and everyone can go home happy.I looked around me. At the many eyes on me. It was then I saw how my actions were hurting the black moon pack. Imagine having the rival of your pack coming to pick the alpha's mate. The supposed luna.Nah. That didn't make sense. I took in a deep breath. It's all good to end this night.He had on some shades and was on long sleeve. As handsome as ever. I walked up to him. He turned as if he had ey
