what did you think about that revelation ? please share your thoughts :)
Derek POV “Because I am one, a hunter… a pure hunter” she said and my world stops for a second. I knew this was going to be the answer when I asked the question but I hoped, I prayed to the goddess that she would answer differently. that can’t be, I can’t be mated to a hunter, the killer of my kind, no wonder she was not fazed by the knowledge of our existence and she didn’t give a shit that I’m an alpha, she was right all along we can’t be together… Why? Just why would the moon goddess do that to me? Haven’t I been through enough? I feel Rex is trying to crawl out as my rage grows, I look around and I see everybody’s shocked faces. I stand up and slam my fist to my desk splitting it in half, I’m breathing heavily as I’m trying to control my wolf but he is on the surface, my eyes are pitch black and my voice comes out deep and guttural “GET OUT” Dylan instinctively takes a protective stance in front of Alexandria and he is right to do so because I don’t know what I would do
Alexandria POV I’m back in the damn hospital bed again, I hate hospitals with passion all it brings is bad memories. I groan as I try to get out of bed “hey, easy there you had a concussion” Dylan says as he tries to stop me. “It’s okay I’ll heal fast; I just need to get out of here… where is my bag?”I push Dylan aside and start searching for my bag but I feel a little dizzy and I lean to the wall to brace myself. “Where do you think you are going?” I hear Dean’s voice coming from the doorway. “to talk to your dipshit brother and leave” I see my bag, I take a deep breath and push myself of the wall and go grab it. I notice Sophia standing in the corner with her arms crossed and trying as hard as she can not to look at me, I guess she is upset… they must all be upset, even angry that their Luna is a fucking hunter but they can’t do anything about it because I’m still- like it or not- their alpha’s mate and I actually like these people, they have been nothing but nice to me, I ta
Alexandria POV “The papers are taking more time, stay where you are” Max texted me, I clench my jaws in frustration, will I always be on the run? Will I always be scared? “You can stay here as long as you want even after the rejection, you’ll be safe here” Derek says gently. More of his pity… at least he is not trying to kill me now. I thank him then grab my bag and head to my room, as soon as I close my door I fall to my knees and break down crying. It’s the first time I said what happened out loud, the first time I ever tell anyone… I feel my heart breaking all over again, not like it was ever whole, ever since that night. I can hear Luke’s voice as he said his last I love you, I can still feel Aurora kicking inside my womb, I can see Leila jumping up and down in excitement at our wedding and his parents smiling at me for the first time when they found out I was carrying a girl... and I can smell the smoke of the houses burning down that night... the screams... the tears and t
Alexandria POVI inhale the sandwich Sophia made for me and after I’m finished Sophia comes to me and says “So what about a tour of the house?”.“Sure” I say a little excited, I really was intrigued with how big it was and I really never stayed in a pack house before.We leave the boys in the kitchen and head to the elevator… yes, they have a freaking elevator inside their house.“Let’s start from the bottom up” Sophia says as she pushes the elevator button.We start the tour of the mansion, house my ass, this place is huge, the first floor was the kitchen, the dining hall, the arcade room, yes, they had a fucking arcade in the damn house that’s how big it is and a small movie theatre plus a huge living room and that’s just the first floor.The second floor contained of a big library, a formal dining room for when the alpha have guests, the alpha, beta, gamma and Luna offices and a conference room.The rest of the second floor was divided by a huge double door, behind which were rooms
Derek POV “You are making a huge mistake Derek” Dean says. “Did you even tell her or you just decided to go full asshole” now it’s Dylan. “Why should I tell her anything? It’s none of her business” I answer Dylan. “It’s exactly her business, she is your mate so when you are bringing your ex girlfriend to stay over at your house you have to tell her” Dylan explains to me slowly like he Is explaining homework to a five year old boy, Dean is right, he is a dick. “She is not my mate… or at least won’t be in few days, we didn’t even talk since our last conversation four days ago, so yeah, it’s none of her god damn business Dylan, plus what do you guys have against Izzy?” . “You are kidding right? Tell me you are kidding… don’t you remember why you broke up with her in the first place?” Dean tries to remind me. “so she is a little possessive, but she was a good leader and handled some of the Luna duties very well when we were together, plus she is from a strong lineage, she is a good
Derek POV We get out of the pack house and head to the tree line, her scent is overwhelming me, it’s the first time in days to be that close to her. I keep stealing glances at her and I can see her blushing every time I do so, we reach the tree line and she stops me, “Are you going to shift?” she asks. “I wasn’t planning to but if you want to meet Rex, I can do that” I offer her. “No, definitely not, the last time I met him, he tried to kill me, remember” she says chuckling like it’s a fun memory; she has a very dark and kinda twisted sense of humor. Rex whimpers and I can feel his shame and hurt, shame of what he did and hurt that his mate doesn’t even want to see him. We reach the clearance by the crimson red river that runs through our pack land, hence the name of our pack “the crimson river pack”. Ria stop and look around admiring the beauty of it, we are standing so close, we are almost touching, should I hold her hands? Or will it be too forward? Maybe just brush against
Derek POV Pain, all I feel is pain, never ending pain. I keep hearing the faint voice of Alexandria but I can’t make out what she is saying. I try to open my eyes but even that hurts ,then I smell it, Alexandria’s scent, but there is something different about it, it’s mixed with…Fear! I try to open my eyes again but everything is a blur and I can barely make out my surroundings. I hear Alexandria’s voice again and try as much as I can to concentrate on her voice, at first it was muffled and far but then I could hear what she was saying or rather shouting. “GET UP, DEREK” Alexandria shouts. The pain is starting to subside and my sight is getting better, but still not enough. The first thing I see is Alexandria’s back, then I notice the two daggers she is holding, one in each hand, she is taking a protective stance infront of me 'What the hell is going on?' I ask myself. Then I heard it, snarls and low growls. I try to open my eyes even more, Rex trying to help me as much as he
Alexandria POV He closed his eyes, I waited for him to open it again, I begged and pleaded … but he did not respond. His chest is almost still and I can hardly feel his heartbeat, Am I really going to lose him? That’s not what I wanted; I just wanted to protect him … not for him to be gone. I did this to him, if he didn’t reject me he would have been able to defend himself, if I didn’t push him that far he would have been okay. I always do this, bring death… but I did it right this time, didn’t I? I pushed him away, I wasn’t selfish like I was with Luke, this time my mate was suppose to live, he is going to live. I start shaking Derek again saying “Derek, just wake up this time and I’ll do whatever you want, please just this once, open your eyes”, still no response. I hear movement coming from the trees, I snap my head around looking for the dagger I dropped and I can see it just at arm’s length, I reach for it and grab it. I stand protectively over Derek with my dagger in my h
Derek POV“You son of bitch” Alexandria yells at me“You call yourself the alpha slayer?” Alexandria continue her scolding “No, I don’t call myself that…people call me that” I answer smirking which seems to enrage her even more “I don’t care what you are called, you are still a coward” Alexandria screams at me, okay, now she is taking it too far, as she usually does, and I won’t take it“Listen here mate, call me whatever names you want to call me, I’m still not going to do it, and I hate to sound like a dick, but that’s what the omegas are for” I say firmly “So you are still not going to do it… you are backing out of this?” she says with a fake disappointed look“I’m not backing out of anything since I’m not the one who volunteered in the first place” I say throwing my hands in the air.“It doesn’t matter we are in it together, you are supposed to have my back” she starts yelling again “Love, I’ll always have your back, but I’m not changing that stinky diaper” I say trying to cal
Three years agoAdam POVI was sitting in the office with Max discussing something unimportant or maybe it was then Carter comes rushing in without even knocking“We found her” Carter says with a glint in his eyes, he always had a thing for my Lexi and he actually thought he might have a chance in being the one I’d marry her off to,Don’t get me wrong, carter is smart and ambitious but he is one of the weaker lineages , I had much bigger plans for her than just another pure hunter,. Mason Venatores , Max’s older brother, they’re the only other family as strong as ours, they will have the strongest offspring, unfortunately the fool only sees her as a little sister like he says, Max is the one following her like a lost puppy but he doesn’t have a say in this neither do Lexi.“Let’s go get her back then” I say standing up and getting ready to leave the office“We already have the pack surrounded, we think the whole pack is in on it” carter says following me as do Max,All the way to the
Alexandria POV It’s been a couple of days since the guardians’ ball, Sophia is getting released from the hospital today , Derek still refuses to read the letter his mother left , I don’t know if it’s denial or is he mad at her for leaving them yet again.Dean on the other hand, is taking it harder than I anticipated, he never showed any emotions for the woman or that he cared about her, it was quite the opposite, but now, I guess he feels sorry for her, for what she’s been through, maybe the letter made him understand her more… and eventually forgive her.As for Dylan, he didn’t leave Louis’s cell until the day after, there were hardly anything for us to bury, not that it mattered anyway, Derek ordered for his remains to be scattered somewhere far away outside the pack borders for vultures to feed on… fitting end if you ask me.The pack is somewhat accepting me, it’s either because I’m the guardians’ sister or because I defended them during the attack, or maybe both, I don’t care as
warning, the following might be triggering to some, please be careful Elizabeth POVPain… all I feel is pain, like my heart is being ripped out of my chest, my neck is burning like someone poured acid on it, one moment I was sitting in our house’s basement till the attack is over, the second I was curled on the floor screaming , what is happening?“He is marking another” my wolf says whimpering, no, not after all what I did for him, it can’t be true.The pain somehow gets even worse, my vision is blurring and I can hardly breath, is this how I die? Alone in a basement betrayed by my mate. I faintly hear the basement’s door break “Luna Elizabeth, it’s okay, the beta sent us for you” is the last thing I hear before the pain takes over me and I go unconscious - “Wake up, it’s okay, the pain is gone”“What do you mean? How?”“I don’t know but it just did”“What the hell is going on?” I hear Derek shouting from across the hall and I open my eyes“ANSWER ME” I hear Derek command and I j
Derek POV“They are my brothers” My mate answers“The guardians are hunters?” Dean asks stunned“Yes, we are the shunned ones” both guardians answer simultaneously in a very haunting way and i could swear that their grey eyes glowed a little “I thought you said your twin brothers were dead” I ask narrowing my eyes … she turns to face me again still in my arms, yes, I’m literally not letting her go again.“no, I said we lost my brothers, never said they were dead” she says, avoiding my gaze“The guardians are our Luna’s brothers, how special” one of the pack members says too excited for the situation we are in“If the guardians are hunters and they are the Luna’s brothers… does that mean the Luna is a hunter?” another one asksI feel Alexandria’s hand tighten on my arm, I look at her and she looks like she is about to faint“Let’s get you back to the hospital love” I tell her as I pick her up bridal style“We’ll take her” guardian … let’s call him guardian 1 says“We’ll make sure she
Alexandria POVI wake up by the river shore, the beautiful spot where Derek took me before the rejection, wait… the last time something like that happened I saw Luke, am I going to see him again? But this is me and Derek’s special place … or it was meant to be at least, why am I meeting Luke in Derek’s place, or am I meeting Derek? Does that mean Derek is… no, no, that’s not right, I was the one who got hurt… does this mean that I’m the dead one?“Well fuck you Moon goddess for giving me everything and just ripping it away” I start yelling out loud to the open space hoping the bitch can hear me“You are a sick asshole, you know that?... tormenting your children as you call them, giving them hope and love then just like that… it all disappears… you are a cold fucking bitch” I keep yelling“You do have a filthy mouth child” What the fuck? Who said that? Then a woman appears from … I really don’t know, she just appearedHer skin is the color of the midnight sky, her hair is the color of
Derek POV“Noooooo” I fiercely growl and run towards the monster that is my father, I rip him off of my mate and throw him across the room, I hold her tightly and she is barely conscious, what has he done? “Hey love … I’m here… you are okay” I tell my mate, but she doesn’t respond“Luna?” Dylan says horrified as he drops next to us, Dean Stands in the doorway shocked next to a sobbing Natalia,“YOU ARE A DEAD MAN” I growl as I tighten my grip on Alexandria “You can’t kill me, I’ve marked her…you don’t know how that will affect her now… isn’t that beautiful?” the asshole says just sitting on the floor smirking “Let me out”“I can’t, you will kill him…he is right, we don’t know what will that do to Alexandria”“She is our mate”“She’ll always be our mate”“I might not be able to kill you now, but sure as hell I can make you suffer” I snarl“Dean” I just call his name and he understands what I want to say, “I know…to the special room in the dungeons” Dean says as he picks the piece o
Natalia POV It been days since we were sent to the dungeon, I know it’s not that long but the days just seem the same, we survive on only bread and water, but Sean sometimes smuggles us food saying that we need our strength for what’s coming, I just nod and welcome the extra meals but I have no idea what is he talking about.Today the portions he brought were even bigger, "be ready", is what he said but he didn’t say for what, we don’t talk about the fight but we mind-link about other stuff including Sean’s suspicious behavior, some of us seem to know what he is talking about but some like me seem to be oblivious, but we all agreed it wasn’t something good and that we can’t tell anyone about it until we know what it is,I hear my cell door unlock and it’s sandy standing by the door, how the hell did she get out?“Hurry up Nat, it’s time” Sandy says in a rush, time for what, why can’t they give a complete piece of information?I follow her and see that Sean and a couple of the others,
Dylan POVShe is just asleep… she is just resting, she is always sleepy and tired when she is pregnant… she is fine, our pup is fine… everything will be okay… she’ll open her eyes any second now… its fine… she is just tired.I hear muffled voices but I don’t pay attention, nothing is more important than the woman in my arms. I See hands reaching for my mate, they want to take her away from me“No one will take mate” Dome let’s out a menacing growl and the hands retract, yes, she is safe with us, no one will hurt her. Someone grabs my face and yells at me, I can’t really understand who it is or what they are saying… Sophia is just asleep… she is just resting, I keep chanting in my head“Our Luna is calling for us” “What?”“Gamma, Snap out of it” I start to register my surroundings, and it’s Alexandria“Luna?” I ask confused, why is she shouting, doesn’t she see that Sophia is asleep“Dylan…we have to take Sophia to the hospital now” Alexandria says slowly like I don’t understand wh
