ANAYA'S POV

Clearing my throat, I rose to my feet and shuffled backward awkwardly like a penguin in shoes. Almost tripping, I felt firm hands grip my wrist and pull me back to a balanced position.

I was back at staring into his innocently beautiful eyes. I didn't know what to do, there was a hesitance in his gaze.

He cleared his throat, "listen..." His voice was low and gentle like a soothing rumbling in the sky. "About last night... I didn't mean things in the way you thought I did... I just meant that it was change, you know, the elders and other ranks agreeing to do something nice for omegas for a change."

"It's not change if they stuff us in a box like outcast toys." I stated firmly.

"I know. I know. And I'm sorry for hurting your feelings... I didn't mean to. I would never..." His gaze pierced right through me.

I felt my heart pounding in my chest like it was going to explode. He looked innocently handsome, like a sad puppy looking guilty after doing something to offend its owner

    THIRD POVThey both stared at each other in silence, Anaya felt her heart beating inside her chest like it would burst out and she tried to keep her gaze from falling from his.Duke let out a soft chuckle and took a step back. "I'm just kidding. Come on, let's go inside and give you some warmth. From the fireplace, not me."Anaya felt like a fool for feeling so affected by his presence. The way their breath mixed, the way his scent filled up her head and made her almost lose grip on sanity, the way his mesmerizing brown eyes watched her body, she felt lost in his gaze.He turned and walked away while laughing to himself and Anaya felt her cheek burn up. A big part of her wanted it to be true. She had hoped he would touch her and help quench the strange hunger inside of her.The way she felt was all too strange and demanding. Her body was demanding for the unthinkable, what she would have never thought about on a normal day.Her naivety always found a way to make a fool of her in situa

    ANAYA'S POVHe just stared silently at my breast and I felt as hot as I could ever be. I was so surprised to have done something so outrageous but oddly, a bigger part of me was filled with excitement and eagerness.I breathed heavily, my nipples hardened just watching him watch me. My cheeks burnt up as he stared at my now hardened nipples."Mm..." He moaned thoughtfully with a look that said he was not totally displeased with what he saw.Why did it matter to me what he thought about me? Why did I allow myself to get judged by him? Why did I want this to happen?I didn't have the answer to any of those questions. In fact I didn't know what I was doing or why I was doing anything but I knew I wanted to do it.Without listening to my head, my legs made their way towards him, one quick step after another. Afraid of slowing down and letting hesitance rule. Afraid of losing to the many thoughts that flooded my head.I walked towards him and stopped right in front of him. "Didn't you say

    ANAYA'S POVI spent the rest of the day thinking about what I had done in my room. Did it mean anything to him? Did it mean half as much as it did to me to him? Or was I just another girl he ticked off his 'have sex with' list?I didn't know why, but I felt like I was more than someone on a list to him. Like what we did meant something to him.For him to ask me if I truly wanted it, if I were just someone on his list, I doubted if there would be any hesitation.But now that he saw me naked, now that he had explored my body and taken away my innocence, what was I to him?It would be too much of a burden to ask him right away so it might be best to wait a while. Right? Was I even making any sense?'We don't have to ask him anything,' my wolf said to me. 'We can just watch his actions for a few days and see how he acts. There are three options to how his behavior might be, firstly, If he acts the same, like nothing ever happened, then it doesn't mean anything to him.'Her first option ma

    ANAYA'S POVI shuffled awkwardly in my seat, every single time I tried to steal a glance at Duke, our eyes would meet.I had assisted Luna Freya in making dinner but I couldn't even bring myself to stomach anything. I knew I was acting awkward and it showed.Dean and Darius would often cast glances at me with confusion written in their eyes. All I would do was avert my gaze or sometimes smile. I didn't know how to act, not after Duke pinned me to the door of my room.I wanted to be more like him. He ate without a care in the world. He was his normal self, no awkwardness in his eyes or body movement. Just the same always cool Duke eating dinner.'Stop acting like a fool so openly! Stop being such an idiot!' I yelled at myself in my head. My wolf was trying to tell me to calm my nerves but nothing was working no matter how hard I tried.Try a conversation,' my wolf suggested. 'Nothing helps distract the mind like a calm and easy and conversation'. She was right.I cleared my throat. "So

    The entire room fell into silence as they all waited for Duke to come clean about what we had to tell them. We?! As in Duke and I!I felt lumps in my throat as his eyes remained fixed on me in a way that felt so wicked and excruciatingly painful.What did WE have to tell them? Nothing at all! How could he decide on his own to come clean on the very day we had sex? Who did that in this world?"What is it you would like to tell us?" Luna Freya questioned and I only just realized she had directed her question to me."What? I don't... I don't think there's anything..." My words stumbled against each other and my voice chose that particular moment to croak. I cleared my throat loudly, "I don't think I have anything to tell you, Luna, or anyone else at this table.""Oh come on," he rolled his eyes skywards. "Have you forgotten about it so quickly? You made such a big fuss about how important it was and now you're telling me that you don't remember?"A big fuss? I wanted to rip his hair righ

Her mind seemed to have wandered far away from the dining room where we all were.I had a bazillion questions to ask her but I also didn't want to interrupt her thoughts. If it wasn't pink ivy, was it something dangerous? What was the odd surge I was feeling? Those desires I felt that were my own but also weren't.How was I to explain that? What was that?Had I urged Duke to bring home something very dangerous? Were we all going to die? Was it feeding on our energy or something?I couldn't remain quiet anymore. "Freya, what is it then if it isn't pink ivy? Have I brought home something very dangerous? Are we all going to die?" Anxiety hooked me in the throat, choking me and making it hard to swallow."No," she replied in her usual motherly calmness but her

It still has important properties that are very useful. I can grow more and use it for treatment but I will take it away from here so none of us will ever get tempted to do anything stupid--""But mom! It's too much of a risk, even for you and you know that." Dean cut her off.It was written on his face that he was worried about his mother just like the rest of his brothers."Dean is right."

I felt my hand squeeze into a ball of rage even though I managed to keep my anger from showing on my face.How could they be so thoughtless? Aren't they the only ones in our midsts who knew well the dangers of having such a thing around us? So why act so foolishly?"It doesn't matter what--"It doesn't matter what?" I cut her off sternly.

She yelled, sadness flickered across her eyes. "It doesn't matter how they treat me! I will still do what I can to help people when they are sick.

I wondered, Trying to move, I felt a sort of bondage holding me back, what was the meaning of this? Struggling, I realized I was tied to a chair. A gasp escaped my mouth as I looked around. Footsteps were being heard from a distance. Turning my head backwards, my eyes landed on the stranger whom had been talking with Duke. His piercing green eyes were one to not forget.My eyes widened as I sighted him. His lips spread into a wide grin, “hello Anaya,” he smirked wickedly, “you must be surprised to meet yourself in my house, don’t worry, it is my boss that wishes to see you.”I squinted. His boss? I wanted to speak but my mouth was covered. I struggled to speak either way.“Calm down dear,” another voice came from behind me. “No need to struggle, I just don’t want any disturbance while I explain things to you.

    It was a cool Sunday morning, the wind howled silently and the subtle breeze danced along with the trees. Anaya walked out of her apartment dressed in her winter sweater and mittens, a cool icy breathe escaped her mouth as she breathed out. She rubbed her hands together and pulled her head warmer properly over her head. The year was falling into its second trimester and the summer breeze was starting to sit comfortably.How long had it been since she set foot in this small town? About four years or five. After graduation, things had moved rather quickly for her. Getting into a good university was easier than she had expected, Rafa had been there all through to help financially and emotionally. After spending four years in a prestigious university, she had graduated with the best of the best result and surprisingly, her rank but was not considered when she was given the post of a secretary in a high end company. Over a year since she started working, she had saved up enough to car

    ANAYA'S POVI did not know how to process the information I had just heard. Whether it was true or not was left to my mother's wolf and she would have no reason to lie to me or try to deceive me with something so expensive. 'My name is Ella,' she said lovingly, 'after your mother's death, I became your protector because it was her dying wish. So I will be with you forever until we are no more.'Tears trailed down my face like a free stream, my heart ached so wearily and I could not breathe. I felt like I was drowning in a deep ocean. "Mom..." I called out to her as I sobbed. Hitting my chest, I tried to help myself breathe again but it seemed all my efforts were futile. 'Anaya... Breathe...' I heard Ella's voice in my head. 'You are holding back your own breath... Breathe...' She said so soothingly but it did not help me. So I was the hindrance to my own breathing, knowing that did nothing to help me though. I still did not breathe. I hit my chest again, sobbing even louder into

"That could have been one mean flip," he said, "and very painful too." He added. I could not help but to smile but only for a second. "What are you doing out here when it's so dark?" I questioned him as I released him from my hold. "I could ask you the same." He responded as he crossed his arms. "I just... Needed some air." I avoided his gaze as I responded. What good would it come to if I told him I was looking for Anaya to make sure she was okay? Especially since I was the one who hurt her in the first place. I could almost laugh out loud at my foolishness. "Do you have any idea how fast we had to run to keep up with you?" I turned to look behind Darius as I heard another familiar voice coming from that direction.I arched my brow at him. "Dean? What are you guys doing out here? Did you two follow me to scold m

I felt cold and warm at the same time, all feelings and emotions traveling through my body without care for the effects it was causing me. But I didn't mind because even though I felt it all, I felt nothing. "What did you just say....?" The question rolled off my tongue as carefully and slowly as it could go. At first, I was met by a deafening silence. But then her voice boomed in my head, gentle and caring as one would tenderly speak to a struggling plant while trying to offer it support to grow. 'Your mother was a strong woman and I was her best friend. Just as strong and even more powerful.' She gave a pause but I did not bother to interfere or rush her. Instead, I listened on to her explanation in utmost silence and total concentration. 'She was a very strong sentinel, keen, resilient, stubbor

"Tell us exactly what happened.""What are your brothers talking about?" Luna Freya stared confusedly at her sons. What were they talking about? Duke felt the words too heavy to pronounce but they had already felt it and it was of no use to pretend. So he took a deep breath and spoke up in a loud, audible and confident voice. "I rejected her as my mate."Luna Freya's arms dropped lifelessly to her sides and her heart slowed. She did not understand what her son had just said or maybe she had not heard him clearly. "You... You rejected her?" She arched her brow at him. "What were you all expecting?" Duke asked without a hint of remorse in his voice. "Were you expecting me to make her our luna? Come on, we can't always be selfish.""Why can't she be our luna?" Dean requested in a stern voice. "Because she is

My heart was heavy, my feet were too heavy for me to lift but I managed to turn away from him without looking back. I wanted to keep my confidence as I accepted his rejection but I knew my heart would ache and my eyes would fail me. So I turned my back and opened my mouth to speak, "I accept your rejection..." Tears poured from my eyes. An invincible knife stabbed my chest and my body ached seriously. I wanted to crumble to the ground, it felt like I was being torn apart piece by piece. It was true when they said the pain of rejection could kill an omega. It left other werewolves feeling like they had lost a big part of their soul but it made me feel like my entire soul had been sucked out of me.

He had truly said those words and I was not delusional. He... Wanted to reject me as his mate. He stared into my eyes for a second before avoiding my gaze once more. His former coldness returned and he furrowed his brows. "I, Duke Cavannagh, reject you, Anaya Fields, as my mate and future Luna." "That is absurd!" I spat out before I even realized it. My body refused to fall under control, my heart could not handle the wounds and bled uncontrollably. "You cannot reject me!" I yelled. "No, you will not reject me! Not after everything we have been through. Do you have no idea what you really mean to me? How can you just selfishly say those cruel words to me without even batting an eye?"

Are you trying to tell me that you found out that Miguel was your second chance mate but you still stayed with him for the winter?" He arched his brow at me. I opened my mouth to talk but the words refused to leave my mouth. I cleared my throat and decided to try again. "I just needed a place to stay until my place was ready. I couldn't stay with Rafa because she lives with her dad who is an alpha. "The man is quite strict and he would not have even allowed me there.
