DIMITRI

The tensive, suffocating air hung heavy around Elena and Lynexia as I walked in, contrary to what they claimed. I knew something went down between them that I wasn't aware of but I didn't push further after Lynexia snapped. I could have but it would have erupted into a blumerage and I wanted to stay clear of that.

The moment me and Lynexia step out of the library, I ask. "Did you enjoy your tour?"

She doesn't dignify me with a word, she just nods sharply.

"You know I built this library for you. I know you always love to read. You can come here anytime you want." I say and I mean it. The library was specially made for Lynexia. That is why I named it after her but she doesn't seem to have taken notice. "It was named after you."

This time she doesn't say a word nor does she respond. She acts like I am invisible. Lynexia gets away with a lot of things anyone else won't and she doesn't even know it.

"I'd like to introduce you to the trainee instructors responsible for the

    LYNEXIA I step out the Alphahouse with my hand clenched tightly around the cold metal of the screw. Waves of anger and spite crash over me mingling with the ruthless lash of the heavy rain against my face and skin like a whip. I made a vow before returning to the shadow pack, a promise to myself and Felicity. I swore not to let anymore trample over me again. Yet, since setting foot into the shadow pack's territory, I have become nothing more than a weakling. From the elders to the members of the pack, I have let everyone treat me like filth, though I vowed against it. Elena's disrespect was the final blow, proving that I was nothing more but a weakling. I can't even hold a fight against her. Not only am I weak but my wolf is rebelling against me. She lay dormant when I beckoned to her as if punishing me for hiding her away like a dirty secret for five straight years. I bristle when I remember how things went down between me and Elena. My breathing comes in ragged gasps, my ch

    LYNEXIA No one really knows wasn't exactly sure I was born under the fire moon but due to my awful reactions to cold everyone assumed. I glance over my shoulder and she understands immediately. "Alpha." She says with a nod. "Go to your room. I will make you something warm for you." I head toward my room—it feels weird to call it mine again after moving out following my marriage with Dimitri—while Julianne veers in the direction of the kitchen. Sinking into the bed, I release a soft sigh. Shortly after, Lyn walks in, a teacup in one hand and a folded cloth in another. I thank her as she hands me the tea and puts the cloth beside me. I take a slow sip, liking how the warm, low-sugar liquid soothes my inside. I gulp down the rest of the tea greedily, ignoring the slight burn as it went down my throat. Even my wolf cooed inside of me. She is still in me, I can feel her, she is just been deviant against me as payment for keeping her hidden. When I set the cup down on the nearby

    DIMITRI Only when I confirm Lyn is safe does everything crumble around me. I stagger back a little from the impact of the realization. The rain has stopped but my clothes are already soaked wet and my hair plastered to my forehead. Unlike Lyn, cold isn't a problem of mine. In fact, my wolf thrives in it. I was born on the day of the ice moon. Lyn despises me. Her hatred for me runs so deep, that she will take her life than endure any moment with me. The past week rushes back to me like a feral blow. The venom and poison in her eyes when she looks at me. The spite in her voice when she talks to me. It hurts deep into my bones to witness the eyes and voice that once showed you love to turn to this and I know I deserve it. Every ounce of what I get from her, I deserve it. My hopes were once high—fueled by arrogance—. I was certain that I could repair whatever was shattered between us. But today shatters the illusion. Now, I am so uncertain about mending what ya wrong between me

    DIMITRI My shoulder slumps when I flip the door open and it turns out to be Julianne. "Oh, Alpha," Julianne says, her voice holding no hint of surprise. It isn't rare for me to be at Gavin's place. She glances past me probably searching for Gavin then she turns her gaze back to me. "Will you and Gavin like to join us for breakfast?" Us—she and Lynexia. "Yes, sure," I reply to her quickly. I won't miss a chance to see Lynexia. Besides, I have been so worried about her because of the cold. Her wolf hates cold so much. And I already miss her face even if it's just scowls and glares I will get from her. I make use of the remnant ginger tea Gavin asks to make Lynexia some tea since it's her favorite and it keeps her warm. Five minutes later, I'm dragging Gavin off the bed and out of the house. He curses me as I move us across the street and into Julianne's house. Lynexia is in the living room of the house when we arrive. Gavin waves sheepishly and she answers him absentmindedl

    LYNEXIA I'm doomed. From the moment Julianne holds her knife so feebly, I know our training is doomed. There are only three people who can tolerate me enough to train me in combat. Gavin being the first, is busy. Dimitri, well, I hate him and even I can't tolerate his presence. And that leaves me with Julianne. When I first informed Julianne that she would train me in combat, she gaped at me and told me she didn't think she was the right person for it, but as the good, positive radiating girl that she is I was able to convince her otherwise and she agreed and convinced herself and me—barely— that she could do it. I rub my thumb on the pack of my forehead where an ache is starting to form from watching Julianne fumble a knife in her hold. There is nothing difficult about holding a knife but I doubt she can do that. What I have seen Julianne do so far is enough to conclude that she isn't fit to train me in combat but I still hold on to a flimsy hope because she is my only o

    DIMITRI Seraphina is extolling about a new technological advancement for trainees when my phone screen lit up with Lynexia's name—that I store with a butterfly emoji—. Alarm blares in my head as I stare at my phone screen Lynexia never calls me except if absolutely necessary and I am the last person she will turn to for help.. She doesn't answer my call either. She point-blank ignores it. I snatch my vibrating phone from the table, my fingers hovering over the screen as I swipe to answer. The moment Lynexia's sobs drift into the speaker, I jolt to my feet, marching across the room even before asking any questions. Fear, cold and heavy tightens around my throat like an unyielding vise. "Where are you?" I question. "Dimi..." Her voice trails off into strings of messy sobs. Seraphina isn't speaking anymore and Zarek who is also in the conference room gives me a questioning glance. But I don't have time for an explanation. "The meeting is over," I speak over my shoulder

    DIMITRI I can tell Lynexia's hatred towards me is back with full force when I show up at Julianne's doorstep three days later. As the door swings open, a scowl etches into her cheekbones at the sight of me. She isn't a bit pleased to see me. I guess, it was good while it lasted. I enjoyed the company of vulnerable Lynexia and now she was gone back to the brooding Lynexia who won't hesitate to cut my balls off if she is given the golden opportunity. She rubs the space between her eyebrows. "Oh goddess, what are you doing here, Dimitri?" Her voice bites out my name like a curse. Her gaze sizes me up before sliding to Gavin standing right behind me. "Oh Gavin, it's always a pleasure to see you." Her lips curve into a smile but her eyes remain icy. Gavin grumbles a word behind me but I don't catch the words. "What about me?" I point a finger at myself, feigning hurt. "Aren't you pleased to see me?" "It's an eyesore to see you, always." Her response is swift. I lean in,

    LYNEXIA As Dimitri holds the door open for me, I ask. "Don't you have Alpha stuff to do, today? How are you going to make time to train me, every day?" Apart from the fact that Dimitri isn't my favorite, the other reason I don't want to train me is because I assume as an Alpha, he has much on his plate. "Trust me, I have a lot to do but I'll make time for you always." He drawls. I scoff, crossing my arms. "Is that supposed to make me feel special?" "It should." His lips curve into a half smile. I roll my eyes. "Goddess, I want to claw your eyes out so bad." "Patience, butterfly." He chuckles, a deep, rich that slides down my body like velvet. "You will get your time." I stare at him, momentarily speechless. "You are so unbelievable." As we step into the narrow path, flanked by towering trees that form an arch, Dimitri places his hand on my lower back. Surprisingly, I don't attempt to shove him away from me. Besides, I need to start learning how to tolerate him since

    One Month Later LYNEXIA The first peek of the morning sun through the window hit my face and I stir awake with a yawn. I sigh, extending my hand to the other side of the bed to find it empty. Of course, what am I even expecting? I reluctantly climb out of the bed, while rubbing the remnant sleep away from my eyes with the back of my hand. The soft pad of my legs echoes in the air as I slip out of the room, making my way to Felicity's room. I used to grumble about me and Felicity's morning routine before everything went down but now I very much enjoy it. After almost losing my daughter once, I now bask and cherish every single moment I spend with her. I guess the saying goes you value something that you have used. Felicity's soft snores reach me as I slowly creak the door to her room open. Her beautiful, innocent face brings a smile to my face before I step into the room. I settle on the edge of the bed, tucking the strands of her hair behind her ear. I watch her sleep

    LYNEXIA The words have just left my mouth before Elena lunges at me. "Shut it." She explodes. "I'm about to fucking end your life so stop being pompous." "What?" I scoff. "Were you expecting me to fall on my knees and beg for your mercy?" I say. "Is that it?" She slaps me across the face, the look on her face sinister. I know I shouldn't push her since she can be so unpredictable but I don't stop. "Shut it," She roars at my face. "I hope my death brings you the utmost happiness and joy. You sick, pathetic loser—." I choke on my words as something sharp digs into my stomach. I wince as blind pain throbs through me. I look down to find Elena's claw deep inside of me. Elena smirks. I shock her by matching it with a scornful, tight smile of my own. "Let's get this over with." I grit my teeth, doubling over as she pulls her claws out of my stomach. Blood drips off the corner of my mouth as my stomach starts to leak. "You should have shut it when I asked you to." "Why do you eve

    LYNEXIA An ache starts in the middle of my head as I groan awake. I blink, confused as an unfamiliar room that resembles a barn comes into view. As my head throbs harder and more vicious, I try to reach out my hand to grip it but my hand jerks back against a hold. Then I wiggle my body, including my hands and legs. They jerk against a hold painfully that I have to grit my teeth. The headache is so much I have to squeeze an eye shut as I turn my gaze down to look at the state that I am in. My hands are tied behind the wooden chairs I'm seated on and my legs are tied around the legs of the wooden chair. My back screams with pain as it is arched uncomfortably. Panic sets in as I realize the danger I may likely be in. Seraphina brought me here for what? Why has she kidnapped me? What have I done? What is her aim in any of this? I don't have the luxury to think of an answer as I wiggle my hands, trying to cut the bondage around my wrists. The chair scraps loudly on th

    DIMITRI"What is this about?" I ask, my voice tight with curiosity as Zarek leads me away from the quarantine camp towards a lone building at the edge "I'm afraid you will have to hear it from the person herself." Zarek glances back at me before he focuses front again. "Hear about what? Who?" I press as we slip into the lone building. A woman whose face is obscured by a veil turns towards me. Before I can ask further questions, she pulls the veil down to reveal her face. "Julianne," I say. "What are you doing here?" Her chest rises and falls with deep breaths. "I may have a cure for the black plague." "You have a cure?" I repeat, my mind reeling. This can't be true. Julianne nods. "Yes." This time, she sounds assertive. "How?" I ask, not knowing how to react to this. "I have been thinking hard about why Gavin, I, and Lynexia didn't get infected even though we came in contact with black ink. I have been racking my brain this past—." "Get straight to the point." I cut her of

    LYNEXIA"No." Dimitri cuts me off harshly as if he already knows what I am about to say. My mouth falls open in shock. "But what if I can provide the cure?" Taking up Elena's offer doesn't feel so bad though dying sends a shiver of dread through me. "Let me guess, you have to put your life on the line for it?" Dimitri's eyes flash in disbelief. I grip the hem of my shirt tightly. Deep down, fear gnaws at me, but to save these people, to make this place livable for those I care about, I'm willing to risk everything. "Yes. If that's what it takes.""No, so get over yourself and stop trying to play the savior." Dimitri jolts to his feet, his chair scraping loudly against the floor. "Dimi—." "Stop it with this your useless hypothetical theory. You are no savior and you don't have the power to be the messiah." His words cut deep but I know it's the panic talking through him. He shoves his fingers into his damp hair. "I didn't let you hate me for five years just to make you be a sacri

    LYNEXIA In a span of two days, things do take a turn for the worse. Bodies ply upon bodies. The shadow pack territory becomes a ghost town compared to how vibrant it once was. The number of people tolled into the trainee complex which is now the quarantine camp increases exponentially. The air is thick with despair and the stench of death. The children have been taken away from the town to a safer place leaving behind the healthy werewolves locked up in their houses and the rest of us brave enough to watch over the infected. The drugs that were given to us by Alpha Henry are running out and our healers are hitting the wall about any cure or drug to reduce the symptoms. Reaching out to other packs is useless because word has spread and most of them wouldn't open their gate to us for fear of being infected. I don't blame, I would have done the same if I were in their shoes. As the dreadful moment passes at a slow, tormenting pace, my mind lingers more and more on Elena. The

    DIMITRI I groan. "Huh uh." She bites her lower lip seductively. "Yeah." Her hand squeezes me harder. My head falls backward, pleasure already clouding my thoughts. Lynexia takes my hand and leads me to the couch, pushing me down onto it. I fall easily onto it. Our eyes lock as she sinks to her knees, her fingers reaching deftly to my zipper. As she pulls it down, my cock springs out, thick and hard, slapping against my abs. Lynexia licks her lips greedily, her lustful eyes on me. "You want this?" I grumble as I wrap my hand around my thick girth before moving it up and down my length. She nods eagerly, her breath quickening. "Say it." "I want to take your cock in my mouth, Alpha. I want to taste it. I want to taste you." Fuck, Lynexia saying the sluttiest words with the sweetest voice while looking at me with the prettiest fuck-me eyes undo every part of me. "Take it, it's yours." As I let go of my cock, it slaps on my abs again Lynexia salivates a

    DIMITRI When Lynexia walks out of the room. Her face is ghostly pale and her knuckles are bruised. Overall, she looks shaken like she's seen a ghost. I rush to her in panic, taking her hands in mine to inspect the wound. "Are you okay?" It seems to be healing slowly but still, something must have happened in the room with Elena. Her face is distant and she doesn't answer me. "Lynexia," I call her softly then more urgently before she jolts out of her trance. Her eyes dart around in confusion before she meets mine. "What is wrong?" I ask. "Huh?" She says, dazed before she shakes her head slightly. "Nothing." She murmurs in a distant voice. "Did Elena hurt you?" I say as my anger simmers to the surface. I swear on goddess if Elena is the reason Lynexia's knuckles are bruised, I will drag her head through the mud without giving a flying fuck that she is a woman. "No." Her lips pull into a forced smile. It looks natural but I know Lynexia too well. I can see thro

    LYNEXIA The moment Elena and I walk out of Dimitri's presence and into a room, the fake facade Elena has on her face falls. Elena sits on a chair while I take the one opposite from it. There is something eager about her today. She still despises me but it is like she is excited about something. Whatever it is that she wants to tell, she can't wait for me to hear it. "What is this about?" I make my voice sound as neutral as possible. Elena smirks, crossing her arms over her chest. "I don't have time for this game you are trying to play Elena. Say what you have to say." The words rush out of my mouth. I don't have anything against Elena as much as she hates me but being in the same room as her for more than a minute makes my inside churn. "Trust me, you have all the time for what I am about to say." She says calmly unlike how agitated she used to seem in my presence. I roll my eyes standing to my feet. "Of course. My bad for thinking you have anything better to say." I
