Zirah's POV

"Hey!" The sound of Noah's voice floating into the room jolted me from my wayward thoughts, and I guilty dropped the phone on the table, face down before I turned to look at him.

"You okay?" He searches my face before looking down at the phone and back at my face.

"Yeah, I'm good." I hastily replied trying to keep my expression vacant but I could still see the suspicion in his eyes.

"I just wanted to ask if you'll come down for dinner." He said let it go.

"I'll be right down," I replied, pasting a bright smile on my face.

Once he left, however, the smile slipped from my face and I fell back into the cushion of the pillows, letting out a small scream which was muffled by the number of pillows surrounding me.

Ever since we got back, Noah was still himself but after asking me again what transpired in there, I was nervous and fumbled.

I mixed up the story before hastily correcting it but now he doesn't believe me anymore, he thinks there's more to why I hightailed it out of t

"I am not your brother, never have been."I was stunned at his hatred for me."Look, I don't know what I did to make you feel this way but whatever it is, I'm sorry Tristan.I just want you back home.""Home?This has never been my home, it's always been yours!"My brows furrowed in confusion, as I sought to make sense of wha

    Zirah's POV Noah has been avoiding me for some days, and I was tired of it so I went looking for him.Being here already made me so uncomfortable, if he wasn't fine with me staying, the least he could have the decency to say it to my face.After checking his office, the training room, the woods, and the gardens and not finding him anywhere I decided to give up my search, feeling deflated.As I passed by, I spied the guard and I perked up after getting the genius idea to ask him."Hey, have you seen Noah?"I asked the ever-unsmiling guard stationed outside the entrance.He jumped a bit as if surprised that I spoke to him before composing himself, folding his body into his former position."No, ma'am." I wait for him to expatriate but after a couple of seconds of his stony silence, I realized that was all he was going to say.Just 'No'.Nevertheless, I tried not to be discouraged."Do you know where he is?"I turn towards him trying to get him to look at me."I don't know ma'am."He st

    Zirah's POV I don't know if I should believe what Damon is telling me. His behaviors have been erratic recently, and I don't believe a word coming out of his mouth right now. Not with what he did the last time."Why should I believe you?" Needing something to do with my hands, I dipped a fry into the small plate of ketchup and chewed slowly savoring the taste."Why should I lie?"He splayed his hands in a pleading manner."I don't know." I shrugged. "You've lied to me before, not once not twice so forgive me if I'm a bit skeptical towards you right now."He rubs one hand over his face and in that tiny moment that he's not using those intense orbs on me, I use that to watch him like really watch him. He looked tired and had dark circles under his eyes like he hadn't slept in days and was a bit thin.Once I felt sympathetic urges raise up within me I squashed them immediately. I would not feel sorry for this man that had put me throw hell.You put yourself through hell by leaving."Do

He brought his blood-stained hand to his face with a shocked look on his face like he still couldn't believe what happened. "Why?" He asked, still with an air of confusion around him. And I broke down. "You left me no choice!" I sobbed out loud, thinking back to when I decided to do this.

The weak demeanor, the submissive woman, the arousal that shivered through my body as he ran his hands over my body…...was all fake.

He ground out harshly, his deep tone barely making his words distinguishable but I managed to catch it."Damon, I-" I had no idea what I was about to say but for some crazy reason I just had to open my mouth.His odd eyes hardened and the brief flicker of hope I'd seen bloom in his eyes died out and he turned his attention back to his semi-conscious pat

    Zirah's POV Ice-cold water was splashed on my body, jerking me awake abruptly pulling me from the reins of unconsciousness.I flung my head, my eyelids fluttering as I sought to get my bearings.Everything was spinning, and my eyes felt like they were glued shut for the longest time.My body also felt heavy... probably 'cos I haven't used it for a while.I raised my head slowly and I realized two things.One, I couldn't move….at all.That jarred my senses and I awoke fully to see that my legs and hands were restrained with thick metal straps laced with chains, proving it impossible to get out of.Even if I could break through the leather straps, the chains had the distinct yet faint smell of silver which would be tough if not impossible to get out of.Secondly, I was in an underground dungeon that stank like the devil's behind.How I got here seemed to get away from here, but why was it a different case?I was here because I refused to give in.I think back to what happened after Dam

    Noah's POV It soon became obvious what their ace was….or rather, who.It soon became obvious when Damon separated himself from his pack, that was what I had taken to calling considering how they fluttered around him.When the two of us caught the other's gaze, it held for the longest and the tension, the need for bloodshed was calling out to us.Riding us both hard.He was standing now unobstructed, without his men underfoot, his white shirt flapping around him as the wind blew up a notch.His dark pants and heavy boots looked worse for wear, but that wasn't what drew my attention.It was the unnaturally still way he held himself, it was like his body was encased in eyes but from here I could see his eyes were sharp, picking up on every movement.It felt like no one else existed but the two of us, even though I could hear distant sounds of roars and men fighting.Everything that happened was building up to this point."You need to go," I said quietly to Zirah who was still behind my

    Noah's POV We were winning.Or so it seemed.No, I know we were winning. It started as a tough battle at first especially when they got the upper hand by taking us by surprise- I still wondered how they might have known where we were and we fought to regain our defense since they were attacking mercilessly but hours of training won out and we started to beat them back.Their numbers were gradually reducing, and it also helped that we had support from the Grand Canyon pack since they were furious that they were attacked in their home. I was tearing my way through the men, my eyes trained on the prize, killing mercilessly and without remorse as I inched closer to the man at the helm of all this.Damon Westwood.I had had enough of his constant interference in our lives, and once and for all...I wanted to end it.By stabbing a knife through his cold heart.Or by beheading him.Whichever way works for me.But it seems that just when I was within reach of him, I would spin around and he w

We were currently in a private meeting, as we were thinking through our next moves and I had left explicit instructions not to be disturbed in the meantime.Now this.Immediately I got to my feet in front, ready to strangle whoever it was but Erik held me back, placing a hand on the table to stop me."What is it?" He asks the heavily panting young man quietly, patiently waiting for him to compose himself before talking.He was doubled over, sweat soaked through his body. He slowly raised his head, wiping the sweat dripping into his eyes."I-I-I…" his eyes were wide, his face pale as if he just realized what he had done."Get on with it!" I spat out. "We don't have all day.""You can see he's in no shape to talk." Erik points out, scraping his chair back as he stands up. "It looks like he

    Zirah's POV Traveling en masse with such a large crowd while trying to move stealthily proved to be a big deal for us.Also for different packs who are just getting acquainted with each other for the first time, being enclosed in a small space wasn't the ideal choice and soon enough after a couple of days, they started to get on each other's nerves.I learned that lots of testosterone and small spaces don't mix when Noah had to come between a brawl brewing for the third time in two days.We'd been traveling for almost a week which was longer than expected but Noah insisted on the element of surprise so mostly we traveled in small clumps during the day and large during the night. It slowed down our progress significantly but it did the job.We were stopping at a neighboring pack who was a very good friend of Noah's and graciously offered to host us.We had eagerly accepted, anxious to get a reprieve from camping life and the tension or altercation brewing every minute.I, for one, had

    Damon's POV For some people, it would be hard to lead two different people on a united front. But luckily for me, I had experience in such and it seemed quite seamless the way I effortlessly combined Amanda's people and some of mine. I had called in some favors and put a call through to some of my most loyal men and of course..they answered. Amanda's father was wealthy, and apart from that he was also vastly connected which was how we got this massive mansion to hide our people in and conduct our business without query. If he had any idea of Amanda's plans, he did well to turn a blind eye to it. We were engaging in mindless chatter when a murmur rippled through the small crowd that had gathered here on the balcony. One thing I loved about this place was the view. Sometimes when I stood here, it gave me this empowering feeling, you know, like I could do anything I wanted. And of course, you guessed right, it quickly became my favorite spot in the house. I was lounging in my corner

To say I was furious with myself was putting it lightly but there was nothing more I could do…. except turn back time which was out of my power. So I sulked all the way home, rehashing all the possible ways that situation could have gone.All too soon, we arrived at the gate's entrance and then I realized I still had people waiting to talk to me.The car stopped in front of the house, and before I went in I was making small talk with the men when I heard my name."Noah!" Zirah screamed, gathering her flowy summer dress in her hand as she hurriedly rushed down the stairs.I was struck by how beautiful she looked at that moment. For a second, she appeared young and carefree….like she should always be.I felt a twinge of guilt when I saw how scared she was, and the guilt expanded to become a large block resting on my chest.She
