Logan continued to stride towards me with quick steps before pulling me into his heaving chest with a silent growl vibrating off, of him quietly.
From how tense his body was pressed firmly into mine, I could tell he was beyond worried and a raging storm was probably brewing in his mind as well.
I mean, the very fact that he was even here with me right now is oddly enough. I can't even begin to imagine why.
"Sofia? Did you know our mate was coming?" I tried to figure out quickly through our connection but Sofia was too busy sniffing around with Sam in my head to give me a reply.
Who am i kidding though,I was just as excited to see him if not ecstatic but still, i will have to deal with this snitch later.
I shot Valdez a weak glare and he shrugged. He was in on it too. I bet he was following me earlier to keep an eyes out for him as well.
A gush of warm calming sensation shot right through me the moment I inhal
*"So here is the deal. I know, I said, I would tell you everything about your parent tonight but truth is, there has been a change of plan and I would like to take you to them instead"I arched a curious brow at him slightly. "Them? I mean, who is them?""Your parent. I will take you to your home and to the rest of your people as they are waiting for you. So come with me. We have to leave before the sun comes out"He grabbed hold of my hand and was about to pull me along when i felt that very familiar tingling in my body, followed by Sofia's soft whimper and I turned around almost swiftly to catch a quick glimpse of Logan's wolf jumping out of nowhere before it smashed right into Carlos, and putting a couple of distance between us abruptly.Freaking hell.Carlos took a stumbling step backward but landed on all four as he had quickly transformed into his wolf form and charging forward, his large canines bare and snapping at Logan vicio
* It's been two days since the incident with Carlos and I haven't seen or heard anything from him. It's as though, he had just disappeared the same way he showed up. Although, Logan had promised to help find my parent, he still hasn't done as much even though he kept saying he was working on it. So here I was back in my room. I had just showered and changed into my pajamas and lying on my back, my eyes watching the ceiling fan above me turning round in slow motion just like my own thought. Deep down in my heart, i want to trust Logan with all my instinct but I also can't help but feel like he hasn't been completely honest with me and also couple with the fact that, Carlos had already made some insinuations about him knowing something and further putting my mind on a total overdrive with more skepticism. Gosh. A little sigh escaped my lips and I turned on my side, my face slightly buried into the pillow beneath me and feeling extrem
*Logan's POVI felt a shift in my mood like a quick jolt and knew almost immediately that something was definitely wrong. My wolf Sam on the other hand didn't just spring back to life like I did but has suddenly become restless at this point as well and was sprinting up and down in my head furiously and almost going out of control.Last time he reacted this way and was on the verge of almost getting out of control was two nights ago when Vega clown was out to lure Avalon away from us but he got us there on time to stop whatever plans he had put forward before it happened but am afraid if I don't take her home soon enough, he would be back again and this time, I might be too late.If I don't find something tangible to make Avalon stay with us before he does, he might be able to convince her more than I could. Heck, I was so close to loosing her the last time that I might not be so damn lucky the next time.Carlos has more leverage than
* Ava's POV ** I sat at the passenger seat in Carlos' car with my head thrown back against the head rest and half asleep. We have been on the road all night without stopping for gas or anything for that matter. It was just us two listening to the horrible music from his FM all night long. My phone hasn't stopped ringing since we left. Each time the screen come up, it was either Logan calling or leaving me a message to text him my whereabout. I want to do that which he asks of me yet I find myself doing the exact opposite so I decided to turn off my phone at some point before placing it into my jacket. At the rate he was calling throughout the night, I bet he totally lost it the moment he realized my phone was now dead and he couldnt reach me any more. Aside from my own patchiness, I could already feel Sofia getting more than quiet in my head ever since we left town. She has refused to speak with me and I can't
*I had just finished showering and even went in for number two then got out into the bedroom only to realize there is no single clothes here for me to wear.The wardrobe was totally empty and the clothes I came with was still downstairs in Carlos' car. Meeting and talking to the Luna had made me to forget to retrieve it from the car earlier.It was either i put on my pajamas again or just wait around for someone to show up and help me get it.Darn it.Feeling hungry and frustrated, I plopped down on the bed with my feet dangling over to the floor and began to swing it back and forth like a little girl in distress.While waiting, I thought about turning on my phone for a moment but decided against it. Logan would be waiting and knowing him, he must have been tracking my phone by now and turning it on would give him signal to come looking and that could only spell disaster for everyone.I will just wait and call my parent with Ca
*Lily actually came through for me and handed me some of her dresses to pick from. After sizing up a few, I decided to settle for a black lacy gown that flowed just below my knees and matches with my ankle boots perfectly.Carlos was with us the whole time that I couldn't afford to get Lilly to talk to me about my parent or anything else that would put her in an uncomfortable position with Carlos or anyone else.Turns out Lily is Carlos' mate.These two have been mated for a while now. Since our high school and that was the reason he left me in the first place. He found out his best friend was his bonded mate and not his girlfriend.The irony is cheek cracking I know but the moon goddess is impeccable in her decision making when it comes to picking a mate for her favored.Now that I think back to how it all happened, everything was right there. The early bonding and all round butt sniffing.Anyways, i'm happy Lily wasn't just a
"Come child. Come closer let me have a closer look at you" The king Alpha had beckoned on me with an open arms, very much to my surprise.Well, looks like I judged him a little too early and harshly fellas. For a moment there, I thought he didn't like me from the cold looks in his eyes and now he is welcoming me with open arms.Is he freaking bipolar or something?Anyways, i nodded slowly at his request and took three steps forward and stood in front of him and he got up from his chair and walked towards me and took me by the hand before turning them over to look at my knuckles and even caressed at them.Creepy if you ask me but I kept my cool and held my breath and waited while he kept going. I mean, he was the freaking authority around her and probably got the right to sniff people hair as well even though it makes them totally uncomfortable.The room was totally quiet as he continued to access and examine me under his scrutiny. After a whi
*Carlo's wolf continued to stalk towards me with paws light and careful against the bare floor like a predator after its prey.I took a step backward, my right hand going forward to stop him if he even think about coming any closer."Stay away from me" I growled at his wolf and it came to a stop a few distance from me with a low growl of his own before it shifted back into his human form with his hands held up in surrender."Calm down Ava. I can explain, just listen to me alright? I know you are upset right now but I can totally explain. Just give me a chance"I scoffed at him, "you had enough chance to explain things to me all these damn time but what did you do? You choose to lie instead. You must think me to be a fool didn't you?, brought me all the way here just to find out the same freaking truth you would have told me back in my room the night we left. I mean, how long were you planing to keep lying to me huh? How long? Maybe for ever
*Six years later **I stood beside the bed in my room facing the open window as I stare into the near distance, as people in the pack went about their daily activities. It's really a beautiful sight seeing how much have changed in just six years. I'm not just talking about the structures here but the people as well. Even the moon goddess seem to be in agreement with more wolves starting to find their mates from night claw pack unlike before.Even Judah and Alana finally admitted that they like each other and it wasn't just the hate and fight. It wasn't exactly surprising given how much time those two spend going at each other throats, it's only fair that they could fail that fiercely in love with each other as well.I inch closer to the window when i saw a newly mated couple emerging from the tree line where they had gone for a run and sighed. I haven't been able to shift and go dashing between the trees myself since I got pregnant again with our third child yet again. The mid day
Ava's POV*Once in my room. I quickly changed into a short summer dress, the color of baby pink and then free my hair from the pins holding it back in place with a relief sigh."Avalon dear, are you alright?" I heard my mother's voice before she slip into the room and heave a relief sigh when she saw me retouching my make up a bit."I'm fine. Just came to change real quick before meeting everyone again""Congratulations Miwa" She cooed into my ear as she pulled me into her arms. I sigh and held her closer before my eyes flick open again.I pulled away suddenly with a raised brow, "Miwa?""That's what your father used to call you. You were a gift from the moon goddess and he always acknowledged that. I guess he is smiling down at how much you have grown and even more so, a woman""Yeah, I guess so"I pull her into another hug with my eyes closed. "Thank you so much for everything. I won't be here today if not for y
*Logan's POVEvery single breath got knocked out of my lungs the moment my eyes dwell on Avalon and her father walking down the aisle and towards me.I couldn't help it as my eyes scan from the crown of her head and down to the soul of her feet. She looked perfect, breath taking even or I won't be here trying to catch my breath.Though her face was hidden behind the veil, I could still picture her rosy lips in a thin line with her brows kneaded together in a nervous way. I couldn't be wrong, judging from the way her hand grip her bouquet of flowers. I could tell she was just as nervous as I was.I could still remember the first time I lay eyes on her back in that hallway in school. Brown hazel eyes filled with so much curiosity stared into mine as though she could see through my very soul. I felt a shift in my destiny when our body made contact even though it was just for a second.The freckles around her cheeks looked so surreal yet, it wa
*"C'mon Ava, you have to get dressed and stop fussing with those damn flowers" Alana scolded me with a frown, standing beside me in a slim fit outfit that matches perfectly with her eyes."Go on girl, you better hurry up now. Logan looks like he is about to pass out, out there. Cooper just texted me" Kara said, coming into the room and beautifully dressed in her maid of honor outfit."I'm glad someone else have noticed" Alana sighed before going to help my mother and Lily take out the cake to the venue.Lily and my mother had just finished adding the final touch on the pink and white cake. It took them three days to get it done and I can't even tell you how proud I really am with those two.I have just twenty minutes left to get dressed,fix my hair and do my make up as well. Thank God for Kara whose expert hands were seriously getting at it already.Fifteen more minutes, I was out of my bathed robe and into my wedding gown and kara had fini
*Different color of freshly picked roses and white lilies trail the hallway and more in the front porch as preparation for my big day draw nearer.My best friend Kara and my parent will be arriving in a day or two and I can't wait to see them again. I haven't seen neither of them in eight freaking months and in those same time frame, a lot has changed. I can totally say am not that girl who left home in pursuit of the truth anymore.A lot has happened that changed how I saw and perceived things and people in general but no matter how much I have grown, I will forever be my parent little girl. I could still remember their reaction over the phone when I told them I was getting married and needed them to come over as soon as possible.*flashback *"What do you mean, you are getting married sweetie" my mom's voice more than screeched at me.She took a deep dramatic pause and then continued, "We haven't seen you in months, only
*I cock a brow at him and he sighed, his expression giving away nothing."Go on and spill it out" I pressured. "I know you want to say something so go ahead and say it already"."Look, I don't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation with him but you have to stop feeling guilty over what happened to Carlos. I don't know the extent of your powers and how much control you have over it but what happened isn't your fault. You gave him a choice but he took the hard way so you can't be blame for saving the people you love and care about""You really think so?"He answered with a nod then continued, "I know I shouldn't be saying this but I grew up with Carlos as my best friend and even though we always hang out in high school just like you remembered, we never agreed on a lot of things and that include him being impulsive and hell bent on having his way and just like he said, he really did regret making me your Sol even though you picked me yourself.
*It's been three days now since Logan regained consciousness. He is almost whole again but still weak and his wound a little tender but healing just fine. He is nearly his old self again.After that crazy night of sex between us, Logan still thinks it was a dream even though I told him it wasn't. Just looking into his green eyes make me realize how truly blessed I am. Everything is just starting to fall perfectly in place.For the past days now, I feel like I have done nothing but have sex with him and sleep like a log of wood. Something that can be blame largely on the pregnancy. Werewolf pregnancy can leave someone feeling more weak than a normal human.This pregnancy has made my bond with Logan even stronger than it was before even though he doesn't know the whole truth, he thinks my reaction to him is because of what happened to him. I literally feel depressed and pissed off when he is far from me and can't get enough of him when we are togethe
*After over ten minutes of just seating there in the ruin my room has now become with low heart beat pounding softly in my chest."Are you okay?" I heard my mother's voice jolting me a little. I nodded stiffly before turning to face her. She is the only one left in the room with me and Logan at this point."I'm fine Mom, you should go rest" I told her with a smile and she nod and proceed to rubbing away the pain at the back of her neck. Thank God there was no swelling when I looked at it earlier. Just a little bruises at the point she was hit and am sure, it will heal just fine.There was a moment of silence before I heard her voice again, "I saw what you did to Carlos. Do you want to talk about it?"A little sigh escaped my mouth as I look down at my clasped hands seating against my laps. "I don't know if I did the right thing by leaving him in that state but at that moment, all I could think about was dominating and disarming him completel
*Recap *I tried to go to him but Carlos beat me to it as he quickly stood over him with a silver dagger, directly to his heart."Take another step and I promise not to miss his heart this time"*I closed my eyes and swallowed hard, trying my possible best to stay calm, mainly because Carlos still had that blade too dangerously close to Logan's chest. When I open my eyes again, I had a bit of control over myself as I stare back at him. My lips forming a thin line in annoyance."What do you want Carlos?" I sneered back at him through gritted teeth.He snorted at my question but answered either way, "I want my pack back and also for you to kill that traitor standing beside you for switching on me. I should have killed him that day but looks like luck was on his side" he ended with a glare at Silas direction and i heard him growl under his breath as he took a stance beside me still."How about you be a man and come do it yourself
