hello readers, what do you think about Rex, Derek's wolf? waiting to read your comments :)
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
Dean POV Still, he is lying still, not even a twitch in his fingers, only his chest going up and down. I can’t really remove my eyes away from him since Alexandria left several hours ago, its early morning and I feel like he should wake up any second now, giving me shit about whatever, hell he can even call me Deedee for the rest of my life if only he would wake up. Never in my life did I see Derek in a hospital bed, except once when he protected me from father, which is one of the worst memories I have. Being here again with him like that brings back all the emotions, all the anger, but even then he wasn’t hurt that bad, he had his wolf to heal him, but now, even that, she took away from him, leaving him broken and vulnerable. Why couldn’t she give him the happiness that he deserves? I mean her reasons aren’t that strong really when you think about it. He is Derek Stronghold, he would have protected her from some bigoted hunter that’s after her... and I don’t believe for a minu
Sophia POV “I’m his girlfriend, who the hell are you?” Izzy shoots back, putting a hand on her hips, giving Alexandria her full attention. Oh shit; this is bad, very bad, Izzy can’t find out who Alexandria is. I can hear Ria’s teeth grinding against each other and if I concentrate enough, I swear I will see a thin line of smoke coming out of her ears. “Ex, Ex-girlfriend Izzy” I say trying to save the situation and clarify things. “So that what he meant that day in the office” Alexandria says under her breath. “Not for long, Sophia, he wouldn’t have invited me here if he didn’t want to get back together” Izzy says shifting her attention to me. “No, he only invited you so you could help with the guardian’s ball preparation as it’s the only thing you are good at, and weren’t you supposed to arrive tomorrow or the day after or something?” I say getting annoyed with her pretentious ass. I can see from the corner of my eyes Alexandria burning holes into Derek with her gaze. “Do you
