EDWARDS POV.It's been two weeks yet nothing had changed, I grew more worried than I was each passing day, things had not fat right with me, everyone went about their usual duties and no one said a thing of Candace and the baby,I let her out of jail, most of it was my fault as for me backette he got he retirement he needed and was sent off from the pack, but Candance I could no gr rid of, everyone knew about what had happened between us and I still had eyes on me, I could not give room for another rousing suspicions or rumors, although I made it into a whole deal, now is them were allowed to say things that weren't of their businesses.No probing was allowed, I could not accept it, I kept her within arm's length, I had no intention of punishing her, she was desperate and made her call, but I could not keep her roaming the halls acting all innocent, that was the things about desperation, one went many miles to attain what was wanted, and for caliana, It increased by the minute.“Where
EDWARDS POV.“Rise and show Stella, this is not some sort of vacation home you've got things to do.” I yelled into the air while I pushed opened the curtains, “Go away, stop being my nemesis.” she complained and kicked over the river before placing it over her head once again.“this is not some time to joke and neither is it an option, I don't know what the deal lies between you and jamal but all I care about is giving you a place to sleep while you find me a solution about mow on caliana.” I complaints while I pulled off the river from her head, she seats up with a frown on, somehow not much had changed to he river the years, and by they I meant if we were to subtract the whole term of her having issues, anger ones, emotional distress a blackmailing look and every other negative air attached to her then yes.The food was pushed open and Jamal walked in slowly. He seemed rather surprised to meet me in the room.“Well, it looks like someone really is serious about the whole change of
EDWARD.“caliana is barely a wolf, she has not been able to shift not to speak I some dark forces and skeptical nonse about what is quite impossible.” I complained, my words were not rhe best neither were they the worst but my heart was filled with doubt, I could barely fathom a meaning to whatever it was that they spoke of, and I knew I was not going to yield to any dumb words or response.“oh then do you mind explaining?.” I asked, my voice was rhin yet I knew what it was that I was doin, I Wuievwred but I helt my doubts and stood my ground.“I don't know.” she mattered an I felt the surge of energy as it washed through me..“what do you mean by you don't know?.” I asked and flared up, “I mean, i's no like I don't know but I'm not so sure.”stella chirped in, one way or the other she was always certain to make a fool out of me and now she repeated that very same nonsense.“you mind being honest now?, or you've got some other pontlesstalks to make?”. I asked, that seemed to have coo
EDWARDS POV.She rolled into my arms, and then lazily while she popped open her eyes. I doubted there was anything wrong with her anymore, she slept for way too long that I almost believed she went into a coma.“Edward?” when asked as soon as she glanced at me. A smile formed on my face as relief washed over me, she was no longer calling me a beast or monster.She glanced round and her eyes fell, scratches on the wall, the whole tables turned, the closet rummaged through, everything else in the room had pretty much been damaged apart from the mirror and the bed“what have I done?.” she asked, clenched her teeth and pulled away from me.i stared at her, I wanted to know if what stella said as true or she was probably playing one of her jokes on me again and I certainly was not to believe her, it's just , she had never hurt anyone and looked the most selfless person I've ever known,“You are fine, nothing much has happened but I'm happy you are alright now.” I reassured her that had
MiCHAELS POV.“we have only few days left.'' Liam yelled from pent up frustration as I drew a puff from the cigarette. I swallowed hard and then threw it to the Floor rubbed my feet against the floor on the but of the j cigarette.“I'll have to take matters into my own hands, you know well these men behave.they are the council of elders k, and it doesn't even seem like that want you to stop being alpha to me so why the hell are you slacking off?.“wait… that is it?.” I asked as the words froze through me, I had not expected a thing of such, it was way too bothersome.“Liam, can you please stop with the empty threats? So far I've been with you, a little while and I still can not bear it anymore. I hate to admit it… okay I love to admit that the council members are elders or are crowded with nothing but a bunch of old folks refusing to die.”“Michael!” liam yelled, cutting my words shut but I never minded, I had gotten bored and tired of acting like I actually had any form of respe
CALIANA.It was almost just as I could not believe it, my eyes darted up as I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, headed back towards the room however i was certain not to have made as little as a Single noise, not when I knew it was only going to get me deep kneed into more trouble.Candance was right.I woke to have caught sight of her, she stood by the door with her arms folded over her chest, I panicked at first not understanding it was all about, what had truly happened, I lost consciousness for a while I recall blacking out totally and the last thing I recalled was her falling against the knife… the baby.Those were the first words that oozed into my mind, however it had not ended well either, she stared at me with discontent, I recalled staring down and around unable to understand how long I was out for and why the room looked so shattered however it was almost I was right. Something was wrong, it was odd.Candace blurted out senseless words to me, she explained it but abov
MICHAELS POV.I rubbed my feet against the cigarette I lit as I threw it into the floor, it was just about time I returned home, I didn't want Liam or anyone else calling for a search party all because of me.I ignited the car engine and headed back toward the pack house, however my drive was cut short as I glanced over ahead of me, there was a body on the floor, it lay still and had not moved, I honked harder at it but yet I got nothing.It was none of my business but worry thugged at my mind, I still could not help it. Was it a joke?, a grunt escaped my lips as I highlighted from the car, and reached toward the body, however a glint rose in my eyes as I stared down at the body curious… She looked like someone I knew.I had no Time for second thoughts, reached towards the floor and brushed her hair over her face, I was fucking right. It was her, the same girl at Edwards pack.I glanced curious as to why she was there in such a situation but I saw no one around, her feet had blisters
LUKE'S POV.“Aren't you being a little careless?.” I asked, swallowing hard with my eyes casted upon her, she didn't seem to be bothered, it was not her anymore, it was her wolf speaking.I knew this was the moment I tested my fate, I could break, but I would not..I was vulnerable as she wrapped her arms around mine and closed the door shut, booted it locked from behind.A light growl erupted through Homer's throat down to her lips, something was up, I realized that already.But then, her fingers grazed across my skin, I sensed it, she was son heat, she showed slightly and I knew what she meant, she had fried, been away from me for days,Her wolf wanted to jump me, it was horny, and it knew she was trying to have her restrictions but we had little to no choice, we had both let our wolves loose.The smile on my face spread from ear to ear as I ran my tongue over my lower lips while I stared at her.Something about her manner of speech earlier with Tia had trickled into my fantasy; she
Emily's pov."What's wrong Kyle you are making me anxious" I speak not knowing what he has in mind.Of course Kyle is a clown who would always find chances to pull my legs and piss me off but something tells me that's not the issue today.He draws nearer to me, I fold my legs to my chest and remain seated on the bed wondering what spooky plan he has in mind."What do you have rolled up your sleeves Kyle trust me I'm not really in the mood" u joke with him although I meant half of my statement but I would never resist a prank from Kyle, Still no response comes from him,I can swear I see beads of sweat on his face which surprises me the most.I've never seen Kyle act in such a manner, although it had not been long since we met but I've felt closer to him than I have ever been with anyone else."Come on out I have something to show you" Kyle says as he speaks up in the most faint tone ever."It's daylight Kyle, there's no shiny stars to show me , I guess that's your idea or plan for you
Luke's povThe first tap and then the second, I wait in my bed with my eyes wide open.I remain stuff not turning to face whoever approached me, my ears tingling as my senses heightened, still I'm unable to catch a scent or a sound different from the constant taps.Something tells me the taos were done on purpose in order to confuse me, the urge to turn hooks me but then I want to take the enemy off guard.I hear my drawer lid open causing me to be more furious, whoever it was surely did have lots of balls.Snuck into an alphas tom and even had the audacity to rummage through my drawer.I wasn't a heavy sleeper and everyone knew it, but above all I couldn't get any rest after I got back from alpha kai's pack.I had spent my time planning defense, re strategizing and consoling the people, I swallow hard hoping the person draws nearer. Deep within me I plan on transferring all aggressions I felt towards the person."Common stop acting all innocent you and I both know that little sleep
Kyle's pov.I ran out of the room as soon as I felt a very odd tension build up between us, I had taken advantage of Emily.Emily is going through the phase which every newly turned wolf goes through and her hormones are really spiked, I knew about it before I approached her.Deep down I knew what I did was wrong but she didn't resist me and I felt no need to back down.Afterall I loved her and I really would love to get married to her if she permits me. Luke asked me to do what needed to be done and I promised to take care of her.I had no mate for years and I did not think a mate would pop out of the sky all of a sudden. I did find her questions childish when she spoke about me finding my mate after she gets married to me.I understood her well but I was more than happy when I realized she didn't reject my offer to get married nor did she bring up her mate, all she did was verify if I was ever going to leave her.I felt guilty as soon as I left the room without waiting for her resp
UNKNOWN POVthe error darkness apart from the screeching of owls and the sounds made by cricket fills the room.Everyone remains seated waiting for someone or something.Suddenly the light gets turned on and everyone remains seated apart from a boy who squints his eyes.Everyone seems to have been used to Having such unannounced brightness as they remain with their same stanceA presence up the arranged podium and they all hum in unison, like some welcome tone or beat." I have little time today but then I apologize for this sudden change in schedule.I had pushed this meeting forward all because I have a very important message to pass across"He stops speaking for a second, his eyes grazing across the crowd as if waiting to catch a glimpse of someone or something."A new member would be Initiated, he's one of us as of today and he would be treated respectfully.He is a very important asset and for some reasons I bet by place him as my second in command, I am not to be questioned an
Emily's pov."I Emily hereby …""Stop Emily" kyle's voice cuts my words short, he runs towards me as he pants harder.Hw must have been running through a long distance which amazes me."Kyle, what are you doing here?" I am unsure of the reason he cut my words short."It's okay, remember our date M how about now?" He asks to pull me by the arm.I watch the transfixed shocked Expression on Luke's face remain the same as I walk past him.Although I wonder why Kyle tan I'm just on cue, however I could not just let Luke bear the pain my parents had causes him years ago.Deep within me I had hoped something happened to cut my rejection short, I still loved Luke but realizing the fact that I made him into the bad guy while my parents literally wrecked his life.The door to my temporary room which was once Kyle's room is opened by Kyle. Without warning or prior notice he pulls me into the room and towards the bed."What were you about to do out there?" Kyle yells while questioning me."Not n
Emily's povI could hear faint steps approach me causing me to rise carefully away from my spot.Hastily I walk towards the little gate I had seen earlier hoping to see Kyle.I stop in my tracks with my face turned right and left, I could feel some sort of happiness and excitement arise within me.I could perceive a scent I had longed for, Luke's scent invading my nostrils causing my legs to move on their own accord.Drawing nearer to the scent I could feel myself becoming restless gradually, there was an odd sensation I felt yet still.it was something I could not explain.I see him speaking with Alpha Kai and it surprises me, I had expected him to remain in the pack afterall I had told him to stay away from me."Luke" I call out to him as soon as Alpha Kai points at me and turns away from me.I could not understand the reason he was here and why he was looking so sober, he looked like he had lost lots of weight, he had dark circles beneath his eyelids.He was far from the smoking hot
Luke's pov.I felt an anger arise within me as Kyle stood talking karung directly at me.Although I had done every possible thing that could be called worse to Emily but she was still my mate, The mate pull is still effective and something tells me Tani would not break off the bond yet I can still feel the insecurity I have with this Kyle of a person."I'm nothing more than a friend she has met in less than a day, but I bet I treated her better than you have done in weeks" I hold my anger in turning my fists into a bump, I feel the rage within me surface any moment from now and I might just explode and beat the crap out of the pompous bastard standing before me.Just on cue the door is opened and alpha Kai walks in hastily before standing by his brother's side."I'm sorry for the delay, may I help you please and I hope my brother here has welcomed you well" Alpha Kai asks with a calm voice and nice voice.I wonder at times If the things I heard about him being cold and gruesome lies
Emily's pov.My feets seemed to be rooted and my neck stiff as my eyes were fixed to the ground."Welcome Emily" kai's voice calls out to me with a strange cough that accompanied it.I felt my eyes move on their own accord Towards Kyle who had a confused look on his face.Just then I realized how I had made such a fool of myself, I had dashed into the room chasing after Jenna who knew what was behind these doors only for me to find the whole family sitting around the wide and long table.Seated by the table were Kai, Jenna as Kyle as well as some other servants that were tending to the food and the family.There were also some people scattered across the room but in an orderly manner which made me squint my eyes.Judging by their manner of dressing I draw a quick conclusion that they just are the security team.I know Jenna had said something about the security being tightened but I had never for once imagined that it would have anything to do with guards standing at the dining hall.
Frightened at who was at the door I disengaged from the kiss, utterly embarrassed of what I had done."Oh I had no idea I was interrupting something '' Alpha Kai says with his hands in the air."No brother you weren't interrupting anything" Kyle liedI felt a pang of pain hit me on hearing Kyle's words, he denied it too quickly without batting an eyelash notwithstanding the fact that I was seated tight before him.He tucks his hands back into his pants and moves away from me towards her brother before glancing at my way.His face is void of emotions as he turns back to face his brother."What brought you here anyways?" Kyle asks, discarding any arising conversation about what had happened between us just now."I had heard you gave up your room for someone that got me curious and just a few seconds later Jenn came whining to me that you won't let her friend be.I had to save the girl from torture but I see you have it all under control" alpha Kai says jokingly causing me to turn my fac
