"Alex Gray??" I called out with astonishment. "Alex what are you doing here??" I asked rhetorically but I was ignored and Alex continued driving without glancing at me."Alex??" I called out again, and at this point, I already felt my chest beating faster than usual. Alex was not looking at me and was driving with speed with a serious look on his face. I placed my hand on the car handle and tried to open it but it was locked and that was when I realized that I was in trouble."Alex?" My voice was lower and shaky this time, "Stop this car now."He continued ignoring me and I tried again, "Stop this car Alex.""Alex, unlock this car and let me go now." My voice was trembling and I was raising it at the moment. My heart was beating loudly and rapidly against my chest and I was now scared for my life."Alex! Alex stop this car! Alex!!" I was now screaming at the top of my voice and struggling with the car handle as if that would miraculously open the door.It came crashing down on me th
"You want me to spy on my future in-laws for you?" I asked rhetorically, not believing what I just heard from him."Exactly what I said." Alex said and walked to his bar and took out a bottle of vodka.Tiana scoffed in disbelief, "You know that's not possible right? If you heard the correct story about how I'm getting married, then you would also know that it's an arranged marriage. The marriage is not happening out of love or anything, I barely even know the man I'm getting married to, so how do you expect me to know enough to report back to you??" Alex was quiet for a moment and after he poured himself another shot of vodka, he looked at me and replied, "Tiana, I honestly don't see how all of that is my concern. I don't care how you do it, all I care about is that you are going to spy on Mason and his pack members. Or else your father will be disowning you as fast as you can blink. You understand what I mean, right?" My chest started heaving up and down as I glared hard at Alex in
I stood there shocked, my feet fixed to the ground as I watched the horrific sight in front of me, my dad and my sister rushed out of the house to where my mom and my aunt was, pushing me in the process, which jolted me out of my shock."Mom! What happened?!" Aya shouted, and took over from the guard, holding her shoulders. "What the hell happened?!!"My dad just stood there, he looked more raged than shocked, I watched him clench his fists tightly. His eyes were red, the colour of an Alpha's, his claws were out and I could feel the extreme anger seep out of him.I could understand his anger. His thoughts that the ripper already got scared off because of the news of my engagement to the Rover Pack, has just been rubbed in the mud.It took my mom hours to heal despite her status as the Luna of the pack, which means that the wounds were very brutal and she almost died, just like Aunt Erica."Send a message to the rest of the pack members. Tell them my sister is dead, and her funeral wil
I gasped loudly, and quickly adjusted my dress, my heart was beating fast against my ribcage, and it beat even faster when another knock rapped against the door. "Who the hell is that?!" Alex yelled angrily, his voice a bit husky from the emotions of what we just did."Derrick." A masculine voice replied.I threw a worried glance at Alex, still fidgeting with my dress, my cheeks were warm and I felt embarrassed that someone was about to walk in on us having sex.I bet this room still smelled like sex, given that I just climaxed few minutes ago.Alex looked at me softly, his expression silently asking if it was okay for him to let Derrick in, and I nodded slowly."Come in." Alex mumbled after getting my approval. The door opened and a tall man, looking the same age as Alex walked in. He had black hair and I caught a glimpse of his brown eyes. When Derrick walked in, he looked surprised for a second to see me in the room but he quickly masked the surprise with a blank expression. O
The whole room went pin drop silent and we all stared at each other with different facial expressions.Mine being totally and utterly shocked. The room suddenly became too warm for me to stay in."What?" My voice came out squeaky."What? Radiant Bar, few nights ago? Oh come on Tiana, stop playing dumb, the both of us know what I'm talking about." Melanie said, with a sarcastic smile.Oh god.This isn't happening.Everybody in town definitely knows who Radiant Bar belongs to, which means my parents will kill me with their bare hands.Or was this for good?? Maybe Mason would now hate me too much to look at my face, much more marrying him."Tiana, what is going on?? Radiant Bar?? Why are you bent on disgracing this family? What have we ever done to you?! You visited a bar that belongs to an enemy?! Have you finally lost your mind?!" My father was shouting at the top of his voice.Before I could open my mouth to say a word in defense of myself even though I actually had none, my mom added
Tiana's POVMy poor Camilla, she had such a beautiful future ahead of her.The funeral was too brief and also too long at the same time, either ways I'm back in my room, I needed time alone to catch my breath , I couldn't believe Camilla was gone forever. I was never going to see my favourite cousin again because of the ripper, whoever the hell the psychotic bastard is.My moment of grief was cut short when I heard the sound of movement in my childhood room, I looked around alarmingly but I saw nothing that could make such sound. Maybe I was hallucinating. I concluded and walked to the vanity table to pick up the photo album. Most of my childhood pictures were taken with or by Camilla. She was--My hands paused mid air when I heard the sound of movement again, as I was about to pick up the photo album. This time it sounded closer and clearer. It was the sound of a growl.Before I could comprehend why I was hearing the sound of a growl in my room at past eleven in the night, somethin
Tiana's POVMy feet was fixated on the ground as I tried to comprehend what my father just said. I examined his face properly, looking for a hint of joke or something but I found none, he had his usual stoic and cold expression on."What did you just say?" I asked, along with a dry chuckle. I was not amused at all.My dad looked away and returned to the living room to sit on one of the couches, and crossed his legs over each other, leaving me looking stupid on the staircase."The ripper has blatantly shown us that we are his next target. He killed Camilla and then attacked you in your bedroom, on your first day back in town, which means he has been monitoring you. Although you haven't been in town in almost a decade, everybody in Willow Heights knows that any pack the ripper warns, he makes sure to wipe them out in the next full moon. This all boils down to one thing, we are in desperate need of protection because I will not sit back and watch that bloody animal touch any of my pack
Tiana's POV"Alex Gray? How the hell did you meet Alex Gray?!" Aya exclaimed, startling the shit out of me.I ignored her question because there's no way I'm telling Aya that I had sex with a man I met for the first time."I know I already sound like a broken record but this is why you should stray away from your root for too long, or at all, as a matter of fact. You are from Willow Heights, born and fucking bred and you don't even know who Alex Gray is. This might sound harsh, but you're a failure, Tiana." Aya added.I restrained myself from saying "you don't sound like a broken record, one might actually mistake you for a goddamn radio." But I thought better and held my tongue.When she saw that I was staring blankly at her, she rolled her eyes at me and began, "I'm sure you have never heard of the Eclipse Wolves. They are untouchable and unstoppable. Even though they are an arrogant bunch, every werewolf and even humans know better than to provoke them. They once wiped out a whole
