It didn't take much for Ashlyn to find Elijah.The man was leaning against the giant tree with his head lowered, and his feet kicked the pebble in front of his leg, playing with it. It almost felt as though the man was sulking.Ashlyn silently stared at him for a second, enough for him to notice her presence. Seeing how he didn't acknowledge her made her feel even more angry, and she stomped forward, about to burst in rage."What's up with you all of a sudden, Elijah? Wasn't everything just fine? Why are you throwing a tantrum again? That too in front of the Alpha. Do you know how embarrassing it is?!" Ashlyn's voice rose high.Even then Elijah didn't bother looking at her and treated her as though she was invisible.Noticing how the pebble had her full attention and he was still playing with it made her further irritated. She kicked the pebble with all her might, releasing her anger, and had it fly high to a large distance.Elijah remained unbothered at that.He slid down the tree tr
Ashlyn drowsily moved her hand around on the bed, trying to feel for a figure. Creases formed between both of her brows when she noticed that Elijah wasn't there on the bed beside her, and the bed turned cold, indicating how the man had gotten up much earlier. The scent of his pheromones was really weak as well.Noticing how the sun didn't even rise yet, Ashlyn wondered where he could have gone. Elijah preferred to lay on the bed much later than her, and usually it was her waking the man up.Getting up from the bed, she rubbed her eyes and pulled the curtains. Just as she was about to walk away, she spotted something. This made her halt her steps.There were two figures standing close, talking with each other seemingly. Ashlyn narrowed her eyes when she recognized them as Elijah and Elaine.This immediately got her eyes to darken, wondering what both of them are up to sneakily.This had her mind-link Elijah."Where are you?"It's not that she didn't trust Elijah. Elijah wasn't the typ
Ashlyn didn't think twice before slamming open the door to the laboratory and entering. Her foot stomped the ground, and her glaring eyes filled with dissatisfaction fell on the smiling man.Elijah wore a lab coat while holding on to a test tube. The sleeves were pulled up, revealing his veiny and muscular arm, and his hair was messily brushed back. Ashlyn took a second to admire this attractive sight before her anger came back again."You are here. You took a while. I was getting a little bored waiting for you," the man expressed.The audacity of him to speak like that!She folded her hands over her chest and asked, "Is it fun to mess with me?""You are cute," Elijah expressed.Ashlyn glowered at him harder at that and questioned, "You knew I would be here?""Well, I had a guess that you will be too mad to sleep tonight. You at least have to punch me a couple times before you can peacefully close your eyes."Ashlyn bit the insides of her mouth."You are damn right about that!"No one
His heart beat rapidly in his chest as Samuel stood in the line, blending in with the rest of the recruits. His face and clothing was covered in dirt, and his shabby appearance matched with the others present.The ones responsible for inspecting them were walking up to each of the werewolves and questioning them. It was his turn next, and that's what made him nervous.He tried to keep his emotions at bay, fearing that the men would smell it and find him suspicious. Although he was fully determined to place his life at stake for this, this didn't erase the apprehension at the thought of being caught.He was pretty inexperienced in putting his life in line for something like this.Samuel kept his face straight, and his eyes burned with determination and obedience, very much resembling the other loyal werewolves as the pair of scrutinizing eyes fixated on him next."I have never seen you around before. Where are you from?" A gruff voice questioned."From Blue Waters. It is a small nearby
The next day, emails were sent to the couple of the pack alphas. At first, they were all skeptical of the sudden message sent, and knowing how their email was only shared within a certain circle, they thought that the email should be of great importance and opened it.The title of the email attracted them as well.'If you want to save your pack.'Currently, all of their packs have been going through great turmoil, and they were desperate to keep both the pack and the pack members safe. Even if this could potentially turn out to be a prank, they didn't hesitate before clicking the email.What's the worst that can happen?The content of the email was well written.It started with how this was written on the behalf of the northern packs and stated how they were apologetic for the recent massacre that happened. Apparently, it wasn't in their intentions to bring them such troubles, and this was the result of their failure and helplessness.Although the mail was trying to express humbleness
Although the Alpha of the White Flame pack was frightened at Elijah's threat and could see that he very much meant to do it, he knew that he had to maintain his momentum. Knowing that almost everyone in this room was on his side gave him a boost of courage.No matter how powerful Elijah was, it's not like he could actually go against him here in front of everyone.He had to give him some face.Slapping his hand off the table, the Alpha tried to maintain his bearing and stood up straight, shouting, "How audacious! You are just a Beta! How dare you try to disrespect an Alpha? You should be punished for your actions."Elijah gave him a mocking chuckle."What a joke. Do you think there is any meaning to leading such a weak pack?" This caused the Alpha to be at a loss of words.Sebastian stepped in to rectify the situation and vocalized, "Elijah, that's it. Don't go too far."The other Alphas were about to gloat how even Sebastian had to put them into consideration when he added, "Ashlyn
Ashlyn and Elijah stepped out of the room, leaving the rest of the troubles for Sebastian to deal with. Sebastian was calmer and more collected than them. He will be able to ease the situation well without being taken advantage of.Elijah bought two ice creams and handed over the chocolate flavored one to Ashlyn. Ripping open the cover of the ice-cream, she took a bite out of the cream, making Elijah almost cringe at the scene."How are you feeling? Have you calmed down?" Elijah asked."I don't know. I should have felt better if I managed to get a few lives on my hand. It's a pity," she commented.Elijah nodded, agreeing along with her statement."It's not too late to go back and end their lives if you feel like it. I can help you," Elijah offered.A slight smile appeared on Ashlyn's face."It's weird to have you on my side. It's the first time you didn't get mad at me for acting violently. Usually, wouldn't you call me short-tempered and rash?" Ashlyn said."Wasn't that because I was
"No matter how much I think about it, it doesn't make sense for the Alpha and you to agree along with cooperating with Dream Pack. There has to definitely be a reason behind it," Ashlyn commented, waiting outside of the Alpha's office with Elijah.Her brother, Sebastian, was having a talk inside with Daniel Waters. Seeing how long the conversation between them was going on, it genuinely made her wonder whether there was anything this worthy to chat about. Of course, Elijah was instructed to keep an eye on Ashlyn and keep her out in case she ran her mouth randomly and acted a little too disrespectfully. And no matter how curious Ashlyn was, she wasn't able to able to have a peek into their conversation.Elijah stared at her with amusement in his eyes."What makes you think that?" he questioned.She slapped on his arm and ordered, "Be honest or else I am going to be really upset.""When was I not being honest? You can't keep on falsely blaming me and ruining my reputation. I need a com
