"In only you may my soul be satisfied"
~Unknown
I place the small delicate bottle on the side table, it will remind me to take it on time.
I turn around to search for Theo and find him standing by the window staring outside in deep thought, his jaw was clenched.
I slowly walk towards him, I slide my hands around his waist and rest my cheek on his rigid back. He heaves in a sigh and relaxes.
We stay like this for 2 minutes until he turns around and engulfs me into a hug, I smile softly against his chest.
I know he can't stay mad at me for too long.
He kisses the top of my head "What did she say?" He murmurs against my head.
I pull away so I can look at him, he looks down at me with a tensed expression.
"She's going to help us" I grin with tears gathering at the brim of my eyes.
He keeps staring for me to continue, I place my right palm against his left cheek, he shuts his eyes before reopening them "s
"There was forever in those eyes"d.j. "I'm here for the good news!" Helen exclaims barging in the room, I jump from place at her sudden entrance.She looks around the room, her eyes are quick to find me. She pads her way towards me and plops down on the bed beside me.I stare at her bewildered, 'what just happened?'"Soooo???" She pries quirking her brow, a smile spreads on my lips seeing her silly behavior. She reminds me of my best friend.I stand up and walk towards the side table, Helen follows my movements with her bright eyes. I open the first drawer and take out the small purple bottle."This is the good news" I say giving her the bottle to inspect which she does just as I assumed.She shakes the bottle, opens it and takes a whiff instantly gagging "what poison is this?" she asks worried putting away the bottle.I chuckle "well this poison is the only way to achieve my happiness" I answer her."Are y
"If you're not the one I'm with, you'll be the one I remember"~Story djIt's been 10 minutes since Dominic has been carrying me and is taking me to an unknown place, I have tried everything from scratching, biting and punching him but he hasn't budged.I am now just hanging, drained from all the energy I wasted on this giant."Wait till Helen notices that I'm missing from the house, she will definitely call Theo, and when he finds out what you did.. " I leave the words hanging to make him curious and build fear inside him of the consequences of his actions."You think I am scared of that Alpha of yours? who doesn't even have the guts to find his own mate, bloody mate theif" he hisses, his words rile me up.I punch his broad shoulders "Call him with respect! he's an Alpha not only mine but also yours! he's more powerful than you in terms of rank and power" I say harshly.Dominic holds my waist and throws me on the ground, I fall on a bed of leaves wh
"Love completely, or the fractions of what you give will destroy all the pieces you ever had"~Perry PoetryMy harsh breathing is all I can hear as I run aimlessly. I sense Dominic following me so I increase my speed.I try to shift in my wolf form but fail, I realize that Tonia has blocked me back.'Tonia! now is not the time, help me!" I hiss and take a sharp right, I don't look back as it will only stop me.She doesn't respond, I growl irritatedly 'Fine!' I let her be.I start to change directions so he gets confused and hopefully it will give me enough leverage to get back to the pack house. A loud roar halts me in my place, the ground beneath me shakes, birds fly out from the trees.He has shifted!I start running, all I see is thick trees. 'Where did he bring us? where am I?' I turn left looking around frantically, I hear another growl and a heavy weight falls on me making me fall on the ground."Ahh" I scream as my body gets
"I wanted to explain, but my soul was tied up in knots"~d.j "I can't believe you agreed" Dominic mumbles while throwing a pebble in the river, I follow the pebble until it skips a few times and disappears under the water.After I agreed, we silently walked towards the river bank and sat by it, we both were to stunned to speak for some time.I look at Dominic who throws another pebble, the muscles of his arm contract with each throw. My eyes move around, taking in his form.I Stop my gaze on his face, suddenly he turns around, his forest green eyes making contact with my own. I jump in embarrassment and look around, my cheeks flush.I hate it when someone catches you staring! "You can look as much as you want, I'm all yours you know that" Dominic teases me. I roll my eyes and turn towards him "You had something in your hairs" I point.He chuckles shaking his head, "You know you are a bad liar" he says "that's
"Darkness shields as much as it threatens"~ R. Scott Bakker, The judging eyeMy brain freezes for a moment, processing the new voice."W-who is it?" I ask, I gulp down some saliva through my sudden dry throat. I widen my legs in a running stance and steady my heartbeat.'Just don't panic Celeste' I repeat these words in my mind.I look around slowly, trying to look past the trees, being a werewolf we can see in the dark but definitely not past objects."Answer me!" I hiss angrily, I could feel a building headache and anger rising within me."What is the Luna doing all alone in this forest without her guards?" the voice taunts, I try to navigate the location of the voice but it seem like it's echoing from all directions."The Luna isn't a coward like you who hides behind people or objects, I face my own problems and enemies head on" I taunt the voice back, I was trying to rile up the person for them to come
"As my story came to a close, I realised that I was the villain all along"~Unknown "Does it not hurt?" I ask Dominic while patching up his wound. He hasn't even sighed out of pain since I have started treating the wound.He silently shakes his head while keeping his gaze on the floor. We reached the pack house few minutes ago and the first thing I did was to make sure to stop his bleeding forehead, Dominic has been quite the whole time, he hasn't even lifted up his head."Dominic" I call him slowly while placing the bandages back in the first aid box. I close the box and place it aside, Dominic doesn't answer me.I sigh, I know he's upset.I take hold of his cheeks and make him look at me, his shocked green eyes meet my grey one's. "Snap out of it" I shake him a little.He stares at me with such innocence that I couldn't help but melt into his gaze, "did he hurt you?" he asks lowly, "no" I shake my head "but he did hurt you" I point at his wound."Don't worry about that, it's just
"Maybe, it was just the wrong time for us"~Autumn I sit alone on the dining table playing with my food, I glance at the entrance of the room for the hundredth time only to look away disappointed.I thought Dominic would return back for dinner but he hasn't, I think I was too harsh on him.If I put myself in his shoes I can understand his situation much better, if Theo one day rejects me and leaves me for his true mate that would be unbearable for me, although he won't do that but thinking about it makes Dominic's situation more understandable.One thing is for sure, he and I can't be together, I just need to figure out a way to end this bond without causing both of us more pain.What should I do? where do I go? my mind scrambles for possible solutions and than like a fused bulb is suddenly lit, my brain shouts one name."Hera!" I say out loud.~~~~~~~I've been standing outside the dungeon room for almost 15 minutes, contemplating if this is the right option.But this is also my onl
"The course of true love never did run smooth"~William ShakespeareI enter the pack house, still reeling from Hera's words, the bond cannot be broken without Dominic not finding out, he will instantly know that something isn't right.I need to convince him to make this process easier for the both of us.I was so deep in my thought that I didn't see the wall infront of me, I get slammed in the hard wall, two large hands are quick to hold my disbalanced form.I look up to find green eyes staring at me in amusement, "you don't want us to be together, don't want me to touch you, yet you are the one who always finds her way to me" Dominic says with a smirk.I roll my eyes at him, "you always block my way" I retort straightening myself."What were you doing in the dungeons?" his question takes me by surprise, I look at him unable to hide my surprise. "You followed me" I state accusingly, "I was just keeping an eye on you for your safety, after what happened in the jungle I can't leave you
"Take the risk or loose the chance"~ Unknown "You rejected your true mate and didn't even tell us about it?" Mom asks in a baffled tone just as we enter inside the house."Mom!" I say tiredly, rubbing my temples, "what mom! Answer me" she marches and stands infront of me, stopping my escape."Kyle! We don't know anything about what is going in our daughters life! What kind of parents are we?" She wails looking around.Dad is quick to be at her side, he gives her a hug, not able to see his mate in pain."Mom, please relax yourself" tears well up my eyes as I try to console my mother who is crying uncontrollably."I should've had stopped these two at the ceremony day, our daughter would have been saved from so much pain" mom cries, her legs weaken and she slips into dad's embrace."Love!" Dad screams in panic "mom!" I too get worried "dad, lay her on the sofa" I run towards the sofa and move away the cushions.Dad quickly carries mom in his hold, she buries her face in his chest.He l
"Turns out it was mostly a lie. But, at least for a short while, it was a beautiful one.~ Unknown "Baby you need something?" Mom asks peeking inside my room, I weakly shake my head. I hear her sigh followed by her steps nearing me.I feel the bedside dip, her warm hand caresses my head, her touch is enough for the waterworks to resume again.I sob burying my face into the pillow, she gently tries to soothe me until I calm down."You need to get out of this room, let your wolf be free and feel the nature around you. It will make you feel better my child" she says lovingly.I move around until my head ia resting on her lap.I don't want to go out. I don't want to go anywhere.It's been 3 nights since I witnessed that gut wrenching scene, I did wait for any explanation and directly ran to my parents house, since than I have confined myself into my old bedroom.Mom and Dad were very hurt about the whole situation but they were kind enough to give me space, they also made sure to keeo ev
"You stay quiet, while a war happens within you"~UnknownCarina's POV:6 years ago.... (Alpha Theodore's 18th birthday ceremony) :I'm so happy! Finally, Celeste and Theodore will be destined as true mates today. Well, their relationship is not anything less than of true mates but to have it confirmed by the moon goddess herself is another thing.I just visited Celeste and my girl looked so happy and pretty. Celeste and I share such a deep bond that I can practically sense all of her feelings within me, whether it being happiness, anger or sadness. We've been friends from the beginning of our lives and I am sure we'll remain such till our last breaths.Today, I feel like I'm the one who is going to get their mate instead of Celeste, that's the depth of our connection. Since we've been pups I have seen the love they both share for each other. Every pack member truly wants them both to be true mates, they are just so perfect, perfectly made for each other by the goddess.I don't kno
"Unfortunately you won't know that some people are poisonous until they bite you"~ CJ"Luna!" I hear a panicked voice beside me."Quick Stephen, get the Alpha" the voice I assume of one of the guards orders the other.The guard doesn't touch me in respect, he tries calling me but I couldn't respond as I felt if all my energy is drained.Within minutes someone picks me up, it's Theo, I sigh relieved "Celeste! Who did this!?" He holds my cheeks and tries to shake me awake."WHO DID THIS TO MY MATE!?? WERE YOU ALL DEAD!" Theo booms, I can sense other guards joining him.Fear and nervousness is thick in the air, "Where the hell were you JAVIAR!?" Theo questions his beta."Alpha I was patrolling near by, I did not sense anything out of the ordinary, I don't know how this happened" he seems genuinely worried.During this whole ordeal I had managed to open my eyes, I raise my hand and hold Theo's cheek, his fiery eyes turn to me."Who did this!?" He questions in an angry whisper."Get rid of
"It all begins and ends in your mind. What you give power to, has power over you, if you allow it"~Unknown2 days later...It's been 2 days since that horrific fire burned down our packs most innocent residents.The fire may have cooled down, the ashes may have been swaped away but the painful burn it has left behind would forever ache in almost every pack members heart forever.The fire took away our kind hearted Mina, the fire took away all those innocent smiles and that fire took away our son.My heart constricts and tears flow down as I imagine a little baby of not much older than a month being eaten alive by those harsh flames, what pain he must have felt when it touched his skin. Who must have the helpless child called for help? The fire burned down our hopes and dreams, the fire burned down our future.Oh, how I wish I had not returned him back to Mina, how I wish Theo's guards would have reached their sooner and had saved all those innocent lives.I can only wish.I ponder
"Now I have to remember you for longer than I have known you"~ C.C.Aurel"What's the matter? you aren't paying any attention to me" Carina complains throwing a straw towards me.I look at her annoyed, we decided on having lunch today, I met her in the local restaurant few minutes ago. I didn't realize when I zoned out."I'm skeptical of that new girl Nova" I voice out my concerns, there was no beating around the bush with Carina, we were always direct with our problems.She stops chewing her food and looks at me "in what sense?" she questions putting down her spoon. "I think she has her eyes on Theo, no! actually I'm sure of it" I nod my head exclaiming loudly.Carina joins her hands together resting her chin over them "you want me to investigate?" she questions with a serious expression."Are you really asking?" I question back quirking up a brow "on it" she says nodding her head.~~~~~~~~~I was now back in the pack house, doing some work when I sense a presence behind me, I look o
"Deceiving others. That is what the world calls a romance."~Oscar Wilde I tighten my hold on Theo's arm pushing myself closer to his side, I have tears in my eyes as I view the horrible scene infront of us.After Javiar came with the news, Theo and I ran to the forest, a guard guided us the way.Javiar stayed behind in the pack to send everyone back to their homes to safety, he will join us as soon as he makes sure everyone's safe.The guard informed us that he found the message while patrolling the area, he quickly informed Javiar who came running to us with the news.I gasped in horror when my eyes first laid on the gruesome scene.Tears and sadness filled my eyes at the sight of a familiar pack members body dismembered.Kevin, he was a old werewolf, a farmer of our pack. I knew him and his wife personally, he was such a sweetheart.He used to gift us his crops every year as a gratitude to his Alpha and Luna.My heart shattered seeing his headless body hanging upside down from a t
"Trusting you is my decision, proving me right is your choice"~Unknown"If you need anything feel free to ask around, the pack members will be more than happy to help" I say to the group of our new werewolfs.They nod their head in gratitude "you have already done so much for us Luna, we can't ask for more" one woman says respectfully."You are now our family and family takes care of each other" I say with a sweet smile "these are your rooms, get settled in, after the oath taking ceremony you will be shifted to your own homes, tha couples will have separate homes while the remaining 2 ladies will be staying in the pack house until they find their mate" I announce and walk out of the hallway.Their were 2 couples among the group, one shared 2 pups and the other didn't have any yet, they told me that they didn't want their pups to be slaves like them that's why they didn't try for a child but now as they are free they will definitely think about expanding their family.The 2 remaining
"I choose to see the beauty and somehow this connects everything"~Seeker"What you did there was very brave" Carina says feeding me soup.I woke up a few minutes ago, Carina was attending to me, she informed me that the attack was over, Theo and his men fought viciously and sent those beasts away for good.The shewolfs and pups were sent back to their homes, Carina stayed back to look after me, due to my injury I was still in the secret room and not moved out.She said that I was out for 6 hours, but thanks to the medicine our pack doctor Sally injected in me, my wound was healing very fast."It was my duty, any Luna in my place would have defended her people" I shrug sipping another spoon."Any Luna who is respected and honored by her people Celeste, we all know how the pack members treat you and you still endangered your life without thinking twice" she shakes her head in disapproval."You should had left them to fend for themselves, they were 4 shewolfs, they could have easily man
