HAVEN
Eros stopped replying as soon as I started to ask her a tone of questions. It's not like they were difficult to answer. Ever since we became friends online, she's never uploaded a picture from the front view. It's always backside pictures, as if she's afraid of people seeing her face.
I know trusting a person who I don't know personally is kind of stupid, but a briefing of a love life struggle isn't sometimes that's bad, besides, i really needed someone to talk to. Someone who is also half human and has experience in relationships.
She mentioned she has relatives here, in this specific community and she only visited them when she was young. I instantly knew she was no doubt a werewolf and that's why we kind of bonded.
That aside, she seems to find herself a lot in similar situations to mine, and the few times we've texted lately, she says things about me that i have never told her before. There is no way everything is a coincidence, it's just
HAVENEmber smiles brightly at me."I'll just be around trying different things, call me when you need me for anything.""Sure, be safe." Aamon says to her.When it's only the two of us, there's awkward silence."What do you want to try first?""Can we get some ice cream first?""Sure."He takes me to an Ice cream spot and the nice lady there smiles at us."What flavour do you want?" She asks. I remain silent and look up at Aamon. He lifts his eyebrow in question. "If you're not decided, I can recommend our new specialty. The vanilla and banana ice-cream with sprinkles of chocolate.""Sounds good," Aamon says.She hands us our ice-cream and it's one of the best I've ever tasted."It's good, right?""Yeah." I reply softly.The air is still tense between us.We walk around, making a few stops at entertainment points, after our ice cream is done, he asks me which ride i want to go on and i choose the rollercoaster.I've never been on one before because I'm scared of speed and heights. B
HAVENAfter getting off the Ferris wheel, I felt as though I wanted to remain up there, where it was peaceful, without other people judging me or glaring.Aamon holds my hand and takes me to a beautiful spot where he tells me to stay put on a bench while he goes to grab us some food to eat. When he turns and disappears inside the food store, I touch the necklace and smile to myself. I can't believe I now own a pandora necklace, with a princess cut diamond."Hi," I'm pulled out of my cloud nine thoughts by two girls.They are standing right in front of me, dressed in expensive clothes and smelling rich too."Uh, hi." I say warily. Such people don't come to me just to say hi or be friends, there must be something they want."We couldn't help but notice how close you were with Aamon Blackwood."Yup, here we go. It's all about Alpha Aamon"Can you please give us his number, so that we can hang out with him some other time?"I scrunch my nose up and annoyance simmers inside me."His number
HAVENI walk over and open the door, Ember stands there, smiling softly."Hey," she says."Hi," I respond."Can I come in?""Uh, sure." I step aside and give her way.She walks in, and looks around as if she's stepping in my room for the first time. I actually changed a few things to my taste."I can see you made a few changes.""Yup."She nods. "Looks cool.""Thanks.""You can have a seat," I gesture to the bed and she sits.Her eyes briefly move to my open laptop."Writing?""Mhhm.""How's it coming up? Are you having new ideas?""I am.""Cool. I read a few blogs from writers claiming that sometimes, it seems like the screen goes blank and then when you think of giving up, the smallest thing will bring new big ideas, once you start typing, you can't seem to stop, words and new scenes keep flowing."I take a seat next to her."That's completely true. It might take days or a week until you feel helpless, then it hits you."She smiles."Writing is a huge piece of work, it's so unbeliev
HAVENMy body feels so sore and exhausted from last night. I thought I would wake up and find Aamon still in my bed, but he was gone, before the maids woke up for their daily duties, like he had said earlier when he asked if he could stay with me in my room and I declined.I groan and turn, covering my head with a pillow at the recall of what we did last night. That was one of the best sex I've ever had...honestly.When he left, never in a million years did I think that he would come back to me after what I had just told him. He's the most persistent person I've ever met in my entire life. The Alpha blood flowing inside of him speaks louder for itself, he's not one to give up until he gets exactly what he wants. And what Aamon Blackwood wants in his life at this point, is me.I sit up and wince. I reach for my phone to check the time and I'm shocked to see that it is already half past nine am. Throwing the blankets off, I make my way to the bathroom and pour a few essential oils and
AAMONThe bell rings and I stand from my seat, I pack my books in my bag, fling it over my shoulder and head to the play field. I haven't seen Haven today, and that has unease settling in the pit of my stomach. What if I went too far last night and wore her off? Did I hurt her? Or what if me sneaking into her room when she directly told me no has made her even more furious at me.She's become so good at avoiding me behind the school walls, it's like she's a clever little mouse who's running away from a dangerous cat. I look around, hoping that I can see her in the crowd of people but I don't.Was making her break her 'moral' idea of respecting her mother's matrimonial home going too far? She might fucking hate me after that.I feel Lykon's irritation growing, then finally, he speaks up.Lykon: I think you need to stop asking yourself those questions which you well know answers too. When will you learn, Aamon? You need to stop doing shit that annoys her. Every time you seem to take a p
HAVENI freeze, my tongue feels heavy and I'm too stunned by the questions he keeps throwing at me.I seriously can't believe he's asking me this crap? Secret conversations with Ryder? I glare up at his scowling dark facial expression.I cross my arms over my chest portraying a very stubborn attitude."And what if we've had conversations? Are we now going to suggest a freaking mouth and earpiece taped to my body?""Haven.." he warns. Taking another step in my direction, I don't step back. If I cower, that will only give him more leverage over me."What, Aamon? What?" I lift arms up in frustration. "I don't need to freaking report to you about conversations that I have with people.""Don't stir this away from the real topic here, Haven, We're not talking about other people, we're talking about Ryder."I roll my eyes and then his features seem to soften a little, as if something inside him tells him to lay off a bit.Maybe it is Lykon, he's good with Nixx, unlike his other half. It woul
HAVENI pull my shirt down, covering my breasts then fix my hair by brushing my fingers through it."Why do you hide yourself, Haven?"This isn't the first time he's asked me this. My answer to that the first time was because I don't like the modern style of things, it's too revealing and fake. He seemed to buy that, everyone did, that's why the term "nerd" even stuck more."What are you so scared of?"This one? Is the first.I slouch against the wall behind me and look away from Aamon. He takes a step back, giving me a bit of space but not too much and I'm thankful for that.The honesty slips from the tip of my tongue effortlessly."My father left when I was just a toddler, so, I don't remember much about him. Every time I ask my mother about who he was, his origins or what he looked like, she always shuts the conversation down." I draw in a deep breath before I continue. "My rare eye colour made people bully me around, they called me a freak, an outcast and even a witch. Any nasty w
HAVENMy cheeks grow warm with embarrassment but Aamon lightens the mood with his loud laughter.I can't help but smile and punch his shoulder playfully."Hey! I haven't eaten anything yet. I was going to make a sandwich."His laughter slows and then he links his fingers with mine."Come on, I'll cook you some food. With that rumbling, I highly doubt a sandwich would do."I glare playfully and he smiles.He says I'm always hungry no matter how much I eat.Duh! The food around here is always delicious. Not everyone is lucky enough to have their meals cooked by professional cooks every day.When we get back in the kitchen, i continue making my sandwich and take a seat on one of the kitchen stools as I wait for Aamon to cook me something.After eating spaghetti with meatballs, I leave him downstairs and go up to put on my uniform so that I can go to school even after missing a few morning classes.We get to school and Ammon says he'll catch up with me later. It's already break so it's no
AAMONI already started the process of building my and Haven's house right after she agreed to marry me. It's been a secret and the project has progressed so fast. When I saw it, I was satisfied because it turned out exactly how I pictured it would look like once it was done. Of course Haven will take care of the interior design, I'll just add in my opinion where I can. I trust Haven, she's got good taste and isn't like other girls who would splash the house in rainbow colours."Where are we going?" She asks impatiently."We're almost there, baby, just relax."She slumps back against the the car seat. It's been eight months since we got married and it feels like it was just yesterday.Pressing the remote control, the gates open and i drive down the paved road. Haven perks up once the house comes into view. I park the car and step out the same time she does."What's this?" she asks slowly.I take her hand and walk us forward."T
AAMON*Months Later*Ever since my little wolf said yes to me in front of all our parents and the pack, I was almost bursting with joy inside. Everything I said back there was true, Haven is more than I ever dreamt of, she's more than I could ever imagine. I love her with my whole heart and as each day passes, I love her even more."Are you ready?" Isaiah asks.I stare at myself in the mirror and let out a shaky breath."As ready as I'll ever be."Haven and I decided to hold traditional wolf wedding, the fact that we both felt that way made things easier. After five years, we promised to renew our wedding vows in a modern wedding way. I'm sure she'll still look beautiful when that time comes, I mean, maybe she'll even be more breathtaking than ever.I walk to the alter and stand there, waiting for my bride. I can't lie deny the fact that I'm very nervous right now, that's the effect Haven has on me. After all the fight and effort I pu
HAVENTomorrow is the day. Finally I get to see my mother and spend more quality time with my father. I can't wait to witness the reunion between my parents, since the victory days ago, we didn't get the chance to check up on the pack. There were so many urgent things that needed to be taken care of.The pack was moved back to the grounds from the underground safe house.A knock comes at my door and Ember's voice reaches me from behind it."Come in," I say and she walks in dressed in a leather suit, black long sleeve leather shirt and leather pants paired with black high heels. Her hair falls down her back in wavy curls and she has light makeup on her face."You look great," I say, eyeing her from head to toe. "Going somewhere?"She links her hands behind her back and slowly walks further into the room."Yeah, and I was wondering if you wanted to come with me."I sigh and take a seat on my bed."I would have loved to but
AAMONScreams and shouts of war erupt all around us. By the looks of the number of men down from Ryder's pack of warriors, we are winning this.I rush towards Kai, his sword clinks against my ass we fight for dominance, lifting my hand, I push out my elbow and hit him straight in the face. He stumbles back and regains his footing, then he rushes towards me but I lift my sword and aim it forward, it pierces right into his stomach and he looks down at the sword in shock then back up at me with his eyes widened and blood dripping out of his mouth, sliding down his chin down to his shirt.He lifts his sword but I push mine further into him until his body is almost falling against mine. His hand falls limply at his side, I place my leg on his pelvis and push him backwards, his body slips off my sword and falls backwards to the ground, his eyes staring up at the lit sky lifeless and grey.I must admit that sinking my sword into this bastard really felt good. It
HAVENI charge towards Ryder and jump on his back, he stumbles backwards but I hold onto him like a freaking tick. He moves quickly and slams me against the tree behind. Pain shoots up my spine, my hands slip from around his neck and I go falling down to the ground with a loud groan leaving my mouth.I get up and something zips past me. The sorceress swings her sword at me but I managed to dodge it and do a flip somersault on the ground, grabbing the huge stick in sight. I throw it with all my might at Ryder's head and he stumbles to the ground.The sorceress runs towards me and slams into my body, the force sends us both flying to ground. She gets on top of me and lands a hard punch to my cheek.She's strong for such a petit woman who looks all soft.Anger simmers inside of me, I lift my knee and slam it hard into her stomach. She falls to the ground next to me, groaning in pain as she clutches her stomach. I don't waste any more time, I cli
HAVENWhile Alpha Haiden and Aamon lead the warriors towards Ryder's pack. Ember and Kellan take me to the back with a few warriors with us."I should be there, fighting that moron Ryder, I knew he was an asshole but I didn't think he would turn out to be such a shameless and disgusting slimy bastard." Ember starts with her tantrum. "I can't believe I've slept with him before, and that i loved him.""What's done is done, all that matters right now is that we take him down at once."My eyes flick to the full moon above and I stand up, squinting my eyes. I have the ability to draw power from the full moon, right? Of course.I might not know how my father managed to communicate with me through our mental attachment, but I can try to find him using my power.Closing my eyes, I move Embers voice to the background until I feel something. My eyes snap open and I take a step forward. Something tells me he's around here somewhere.I look at the warriors and then Ember and Kellan. Slowly witho
HAVENI pace the room back and forth. My heart feels restless I don't know why."Something is wrong," I say to no one in particular."Haven, you're probably just nervous about the whole war that's coming, everything is okay. For now at least." Ember says.I shake my head, the feeling I'm having right now is foreign, I've never felt it before. It's like someone close to me is in danger and I can feel their pain and worry.Haven....I look around the room but everyone is too stuck in their own thoughts.Haven...I hear that small whisper again, like the one I felt when I looked at the forest on that island. Like those you hear in horror movies.What's happening to me? Am I going crazy because of stress.Haven... It's me.I close my eyes and my father's image flashes through. It's just a second, but I see him. Snapping them back open, I rush to the door, flinging it open and running down the hallway."Haven!" I hear Aamon call my name but I don't stop. Footsteps sound behind me and I'm s
RYDERThe sorceress stand at my left side while Kai stands at my right.I look over the boarder to Frostmoon's territory and look over at the sorceress."So, you'll use your power to temporarily freeze Haven and Ash or just one of them if we aren't that lucky tonight, then we'll drag them to our territory while our warriors remain fighting on the battlefield to distract Aamon and his friends. Then we can get on with the ritual, am I right.""Yes," she nods."Kai." I look to him. "I'm counting on you to keep Aamon busy.""Don't worry about that, cuz. I'll take care of him just fine.""Good, don't disappoint me."A few of our spy warriors are already out checking the perimeter, in a few minutes, they'll be back with news and then we can proceed.A minute later, they come back dragging someone with them."Sir, we found you something ."I take a step closer and narrow my eyes on the captive. One of the warriors grips the man's hair roughly and lifts his face up so I can get a better look
ALPHA HAIDENI ask Beta to lock the door behind him. The conversation he, Ash and I should have is very important. It's been two days since Ash gathered us all for that meeting and everyone has been alert ever since.Security has tightened around the house and the pack has already been moved. We can't take any chances. I must say that it's good to finally have my friend back."Aamon and Isaiah will lead the plan A group while I and Beta will lead the B group. Ryder and his pack need to think that this is just a war Aamon tends to fight on his own with a small group.""That will work." Ash agrees."Ash," I look to him. "You will be on standby with Haven and the other warriors at the back. We need someone to keep her in check once we head to the battlefield, she's si stubborn we can't leave her with just anyone, they wont be able to control her impulse. About Lydia, I have everything under control, she'll be guarded at the underground safehouse with the rest of the pack members."Ash no
