Aria pov

The search for Jenny was a waste of time, as I expected it would be, don't know about how the others felt about the search but Jenny wasn't found. I used the search to show alpha Bryant how much it matters to me that he found his mate.

The search ended late at night, alpha Bryant was quiet when it ended. No one asked him if there was going be another search again tomorrow, it was obvious to everyone by now that Jenny could never be found. All that was left was for their alpha to accept it, people tend to easily believe in lies mostly when they desperately want it to be true, letting go was hard. The questions everyone had in their heart now was, would alpha Bryant let go and accept the truth that Jenny was dead.

I knew that was the question because I overheard most of the search team talking about the possibility of Jenny being dead and how all this was a waste of time. I would have liked to walk up to them at that moment and tell them that they were right, sadly I have bee

    Aria povAwkwardness was the least word I could use to describe the relationship between me and alpha Bryant. He had been avoiding me all morning because of what had happened between us last night. There was no need for him to make such a big deal out of it. This wasn't the first time we have kiss, we have even done more than that before but alpha Bryant was now acting like a child. Maybe he was feeling guilty about betraying his mate since it haven't even up been to a month and he was letting me flirt around with him. Heck has it even been a week?I found the bastard, he was with beta Brian. His eyes saw me from across the training ground but he shifted around his feet, pretending like I wasn't there. I rolled my eyes, Was he really expecting me to go away like that?Ohh you have got to be kidding me. Confidently I went over to him and beta Brian."Please excuses us Brian. Just give me ten minutes, I will get back to you." Brian frown, he looks like he wanted to complain, but he wal

    Aria povBefore I left the pack, I had check for Bryant whereabouts. He was in his office downstairs. So I thought everything was safe, but Bryant was standing in front of me with wide eyes and dilated pupils. I couldn't tell if it was because he was shock or angry. I rather it be non of them. Among all people in the world to have caught me why does it have to be alpha Bryant, it could have been Brian. Atleast maybe he would have understand why I did it, he knew how I truly felt about the way everyone treated me."Aria please tell me that this is a misunderstanding, it isn't what I think it is." He said.I remained quiet with shovel in my hands. Even if I wanted to act, there was no way Bryant wouldn't see through me, no way out of this now. He wasn't going to deny the truth in front of him. It was a clear naked rotten truth, mostly because his dead mate was naked. I didn't cloth her, to me she was no different from an animal."You found your phone?" I asked with a weak voice, shame o

    Aria povAlpha Bryant body wasn't going to remain paralyzed for long. Very soon he would heal up, things was going to be worst if his pack members found me before he heal up. There was no way alpha Bryant didn't call for backup. I had a gut feeling that he did, I saw the determination he had to bring me down when I told him the reason he lost to me. My eyes skim through my surroundings, I felt like I was slowly loosing my mind. I was anxious, I couldn't calm myself down. The thought that I could die now at any moment kept ringing in my head. My wolf was as scared as I'm, she told me that I was foolish to have let myself get caught.As much as I hated to admit it, she was right. If only I had been more careful, make better excuses that were good enough to keep Bryant out of my room, stop him from searching for me. Non of this would have happened."Damn it." I said, fustrated. I didn't know were to go. The day I searched the dark forest, I had only look for a good place to get rid of

    Aria povI was wrong. I was wrong about everything, I was starting to understand the reason why this strange forest was called the dark forest. There was no food or water here. Not a little fruit someone could eat and regret later because it was poisonous. There was nothing, not even a dirty pond of water to drink from. This forest was curses. Most of the trees that looks like it was supposed to bear fruit was dried up. Even my hope of killing myself by drowning have also been dried up by this cursed forest. It been two days now, I haven't eaten or drank anything, which was not good, I'm a werewolf, we get hungry easily, when we don't eat, it was easy for us to get weak. There was no one in sight, I couldn't run anymore, every part of me was exhausted, my fast running pace had been reduced to just a drag of my foot on the ground, with hope that I could still move on.Jenny ghost was going to probably hurt me for eternity if I died here. Makes me wonder if I could kill her if she eve

    Aria povI grimace at Kaiser horrific dead body that was in view. The man who had killed him was standing in front of me with his long cloak. He was dress in a different kind of way, an unusual style that was old, like he went back in time."Drink up!" He ordered as he pushed in a water bottle to my face. He had gotten it from Kaiser bag packed that he had throw away before the whole fight began. He sniff the water before giving it to me, probably to check if there was any poison. Why he cared if I died or not was beyond me because I didn't know him. He looks like a man that was in his late 40s, build and strong with unique facial features that were calm and dangerous at the same time.I drank Kaiser water greedily and stop when I realized the man who save me was still there looking at me, like I was a test subject he was experimenting on. I will give anything to know what was in his mind right now."Do you want?" I asked awkwardly as I remove the bottle from my dried lips.He tossed

    Aria povForget how he looks for his age, this old man was insane. His plans for me was crazy. "I'm a werewolf, there's no way I could pretend as if I was human. It's simply impossible." I have heard of his kind but I have never seen them before. From what I have heard about them, they hated werewolf and pretty much everything around them. They shouldn't be able to walk in the sun, but here I was walking with a man out in the open sun. His explaination of what he was, made me knew why he was able to kill Kaiser. But him telling me to let go of my name and origin was ridiculous."It's not impossible, you have no choice but to do everything I tell you to do from now on, unless you want to die. I don't mind helping your dead friend to finish what he started." This was the reason he save me, to use me for the rest of my life. "Make a choice now Aria. Which do you want, death or to be my son's fiance." I folded the palm of my hands, I didn't have a choice, the answer I will choose now w

    Aria povI almost fell flat on my face on the cobblestone when I saw a huge castle in front of me. Kaida was really a king, he wasn't bluffing. "Your majesty."A girl appeared out of nowhere in front of Kaida, her head was in a deep low bow. I couldn't fully tell what she was, was she a human or a vampire? There was a little chain hanging by the side of her neck, it was attached to her skin with no blood in sight like it was natural.What sort of creature was she?"Nadia, please don't tell me you are here to nag me." Kaida said in a tired voice."Master have been searching for you." Nadia rose her face up from her bow. Her eyes went between me and the king, one of her eyes was blind. The little piece of thin silver chain on her neck was like an ornament that stop at her slim collar bone, the chain was like a piece of her. "It's had just been five days, I haven't been gone for that long." "Master Zane wish to speak to you about the false rumors that have been going around the palac

Prince Zane words hangs in air, although it was obvious that Nadia, had already inform him of the situation, there was still confusion etched into his face. He didn't know that he had been given a fiance as much as I didn't know that the prince I was betrothed to was blind. Not that it matters much to me, the only reason I was here, letting someone dress me up like a child, bowing down before a man, was because this was my only way of living. If I had another choice I won't be here."On whose order are you here?" There was power and authority in his voice, as he directed his questions at me. If I was an actual human and not a werewolf who was a bit too full of myself to be scared of anyone, I would have been trembling in prince Zane sight, not that he had any, he was blind."On my order."

    Aria 'he's afraid.' Aria thought. after listening to Zane, she understood the fears she saw in his eyes. the fear of being accepted as though all his life he had lived like an outcast even though he was King Kaida's son. something like that wasn't going to disappear in one day just because she told him that she loved him. even if Zane could hear the truth in her words, he would prefer to isolate himself and believe in what he had always believed all his life. it was his way of safeguarding his heart. his way of living. 'I need to bring him out of it.' Aria thought sadly. if she left him like this, he wasn't going to change. he won't want to change. Aria thought that Zane was no different from a blind man if he continued like this. he got his sight back but he still wanted to remain in darkness. his darkness. something he had unconsciously created for himself without knowing. 'I need to be gentle, let him know that he can trust me instead of assuming that he was going to trust me.'
