Diana"Come on Diana! You can do it!" I could hear Eric's voice in the background, but I couldn't see him clearly in the stands.My arms were beginning to shake as attempted to block incoming swings from Damian."Yah Diana, come get me." Damian teased.We circled each other with our hands raised, ready for one of us to make a next move. It was hard for me to concentrate when I was staring at him, nearly naked, covered in sweat and dirt.I wanted to touch him all over. I wanted to touch his abs and trace my fingers all the way down to his hips. I wanted to run my hand through his dark hair and grab on his large shoulders like I was hanging onto a cliffs edge. There was so much I wanted to do-SMACK!Suddenly I felt my whole-body lift in the air, and in one fluid motion I was on the ground."Day dreaming?" Damian pinned me to the floor.This couldn't get any more distracting. Why couldn't I spar with anyone else other than him? How was I supposed to learn anything when I was practically
DianaDamian carried me into the house in silence.The entire time of walking was filled with an ever-growing tension, building up the closer we got to our room. My heart was beating fast as I gripped onto him tightly.We entered the bedroom, the moonlight poked through the opened windows, filling the darkened room with subtle hints of light. It was warm today, so the breeze that came through felt refreshing, filling the air with a fresh scent of the nearby forest.Damian placed me down a few feet from the bed and I turned myself towards him."What were you saying that you wanted to show me?"There was no response from Damian.Only silence."Dami-" Just as I was about to ask him again, he slammed me against the wall, releasing himself upon me as his tongue engulfed my mouth.He tasted so damn good."Fuck Di." He sighed heavily."Di?" I exhaled in between our kiss."You like it?" He pulled my tank top above my head and threw it to the ground as he kept me pinned to the wall.I smiled a
AriaI love him.I want him.He was MINE.It was something I said to myself every day when I woke up. No matter who was laying down beside me, he was always on my mind. My one true love, the only one that would ever understand me, only to be overshadowed by some immature bitch."Up already?" I glanced over to see Iris and another young warrior I could barely remember. I think I had one too many drinks last night. Ever since she was taken, Holden has been a nightmare to deal with so sometimes I found myself in strange beds I would never thought I would end up in."Yea," I lit a cigarette as I sat up in the bed. Watching the two men that probably cared more for each other then me.I was the odd one out.I mean, the sex was amazing, but I knew they preferred their own equipment."You mind?" Iris put his hand out.I sighed, "Help yourself." I took another puff."Why don't you just tell him?" Iris put the cigarette in his mouth, "Could you?" He signaled for me for the lighter."Oh, right,
Diana:(Holden's Voice)Diana, you were always mine.Diana, you will always be mine.Diana...DIANA...DIANA...YOUR MINE!"No!" My eyes widened, realizing it was only a dream. My hands were gripping the moist sheets underneath me as sweat pellets dripped from my head."What's wrong?!" Damian bolted up beside me as his arms grabbed onto me, searching to see what the matter was."Oh," My heart was racing, I didn't realize until now that I was breathing heavily."Another dream?" Damian placed his hand on my back, relieving some of the pressure, but the mounting anxiety was getting worse. My dreams were getting more vivid."It was about him again..." I collapsed in his warm body as I felt the tears trickling down my cheeks. I was so damn emotional this whole week and I wasn't sure why."It's just a dream Di." Damian embraced me, and his body felt so warm, like a blanket. His bare skin on mine always relieved the pressure of any stress, but these days I found it was getting harder to cont
Diana"What?" My mouth hung open, there was so much I wanted to know. Was this mate alive? How come Red didn't mention it before?"You heard me.""I-I-Red-I mean Loki never mentioned anything to me.""Probably a detail he wanted to leave out." Eric scratched the back head."Who is she-" Just before I could finish my sentence, I felt a warm wave pulse through me. My heart raced as my stomach churned. The blood rushed to my face as I placed my hand on my abdomen. Stars clouded my vision as the churning ball travelled up my windpipe.I had to turn away.I couldn't face Eric, not like this.I was going to..."Diana!" Eric reached to help me, but it was too late, I was already bending over, puking out my previous meal all over the grass. I was thankful no one was around to see this, but just as I finished, I felt myself working up again."Let me get Damian." Eric held my hair back as I continued dry heaving."No," I gripped onto Eric's arm as I stood up straight, wiping the remanence from
DianaIt's been days and I haven't felt any better, the nausea comes and goes, and to top it all off, I've been extremely tired. Sometimes to the point of avoiding my daily runs with Damian.I tried my best to keep it to myself, but it was becoming noticeable with everyone around me. Eric kept bugging me about it, asking me if everything was 'alright,' but I had a feeling he was hinting towards something else. It didn't take a rocket scientist to think that I could be pregnant.I managed to get away to the drug store yesterday, but the bag remained in my bedside drawer. I was scared, emotional, and a nervous wreck, but I had to find out.To be honest, I don't remember the last time I had my period. The past few months have been so stressful I hadn't kept track. I've probably put this off too long, but today was the day and I was going to lay my suspicions to rest.Damian was already out of the house meeting with Eric to go over some pack related business, and I found myself still lazi
DianaIt was agony keeping this secret from Damian. He kept asking if everything was ok, like he knew something was on my mind. I kept insisting that it was fine, but of course, I was a bad liar.I was grateful he had a full workday with his warriors today, it gave me time to process how I was going to tell him tonight. I was set on telling him right after the ceremony."You alright in there Luna?" Hippolyta knocked on the bathroom door.Shit, was I that loud?Well, she was a werewolf, so I'm sure she heard everything."Yup, just feeling little queasy from lunch today..." I wasn't sure if the bad food excuse was going to hold much longer.My hands grasped the porcelain as I contemplated if I was feeling better, but I think I got everything out this time.As I got to my feet, I straightened myself out and flushed the nastiness down the toilet. Hippolyta was kind enough to allow me to her upstairs bathroom while the Etta and Phyllis got ready on the main floor.Her house was the average
DianaThe outside of the Pub looked pretty much the same, but I could already hear the booming music and the loud voices raging inside. A few warriors stood on guard outside the door as people entered the building."Oh, there she is!" Phyllis called out to short slender old lady holding a clip board. She wore a lose fitted navy blue business suit, and her grey hair was tightly placed into a low bun. The thick rimmed black spectacles she had on covered the obvious appearance of her age, but there was only so much it could do to hide the wrinkles."Phyllis! My, this wasn't the venue I was expecting to host such an important event, but I know you Fenrir wolves love this place." She spoke with a British accent. She wasn't part of the pack, and her scent made me believe she was human."Nice to meet you, I'm Hippolyta, and this is Luna Diana." She put her hand out to shake the event planner's hand, but instead, she laid eyes on me, completely ignoring Hippolyta."My, my, my. What a beauty y
When twenty-three-year-old Konya Evans arrived at the offices of Standard Management Services in Cross Roads, the first man she met was Denver Tracey. She knew at once that he had affected her in some way. “Hi, I’m Konya Evans,” she introduced herself to the tall man. She judged his height to be about six feet, and he was about twenty-eight years of age. She hoped that he wasn’t married. She had to catch herself, such thoughts. He was dark in complexion, but very handsome, she had to admit. He had a low haircut and was clean shaven. It was early, about eight o’clock in the morning and the building seemed empty.“I’m here as a senior accounting clerk and relief telephone operator.”“I’m Denver Tracey and you’re the new employee, Peter told me about.”She nodded. She had done the interview for this job from the middle of January and here she was just landing it in February. “I’m going to get some breakfast at the canteen, won’t you come along?” “I don’t think so, I hardly know anyth
Diana :My heart skipped a beat when I caught sight of Damian standing at the doorway. I wasn't sure how long he was standing there, but his expression was dark, almost unrecognizable. His arms were crossed against his chest, and he was breathing heavily. I'm sure he was upset that I invited Holden in our home without telling him.He gently placed Troy back in his crib and whispered, "I love you, don't forget it."Damian was about to step in the room, but he could read my expression from where I was standing and held back.He trusted me to allow this.Holden sighed heavily as he looked to Troy one last time, "Thank you for giving me a reason to live..."I nodded my head to Holden, then to Damian who looked like he was ready to unleash his beast. He was in shock just as me, but he was more on edge then anything else. Ever since becoming a father he had grown into a paranoid mate and Alpha. No one could come close to the babies without him knowing about it, and for him to stand by the
Diana: My limps tingled from the adrenaline now coursing through my body. My heart raced, my eyes widened, my breathing turned rampant, and my body froze.He was kneeling down where his gravestone was. He looked like an entirely different person. A rough stubble covered his face, his hair was longer, and tied in a low bun. His clothes resembled a traveling vagrant; loose, with large tactical pockets, an army jacket and black biking boots.He looked rough but his heart was still beating strong.I was speechless.He stood up and watched me, eyes trailing me up and down. "Your looking good."His voice caused me to tremble more, almost like I was caught up in a snowstorm.He took a step towards me, his hands were holding steady in the air to show he wasn't a threat, but honestly, I didn't know what to think of him anymore."You died...I killed you." My throat was tightening up, and tears began to fill my eyes. I had no words for him, I couldn't believe it. I let him go, I forgave him, a
Diana "Diana.""Diana.""DIANA!"His screams.It was the same screams from the night before. I couldn't get them out of my head.I gasped for air, but I couldn't breathe.My throat was so tight, and no amount of oxygen could get in no matter how hard I tried."Ah!" My hands were holding my chest steady as I whipped myself straight from my bed. I patted onto my chest frantically. I was breathing, I wasn't paralyzed... I was...I was...I was home..."Di! What's wrong?" Damian bolted up from the covers, blanketing me with his bare arms."Oh..." I looked over to him, his eyes were heavy, but his body was pulsating from the adrenaline, "I'm sorry...I didn't mean to wake you.""No, don't be sorry," He pulled me in tighter, "Why are you so cold? Are you sure your ok? Never be sorry for waking me up."I watched the covered window, "What time is it?" My feet almost reached to the floor, but Damian immediately pulled me back into bed."It's ok Di, they're sleeping. Besides, you need to rest."
Damian:Holden stood silently since his apology. I couldn't respond, hell, I wasn't sure how to reply to it. I was torn. I hated him, but at the same time, my mother always taught me to forgive, but how could I forgive the monster that practically ripped my soul in half?It was an awkward elevator ride that felt like an eternity. Holden stood beside me, and both of us were looking forward at the plain steel door, anxiously waiting for the elevator to arrive to the main floor.He fidgeted his hands anxiously as the numbers ticked down. "Leave the red headed bitch to me, get to Diana first," he muttered under his breath.I annoyingly rolled my eyes in his direction. "I think I know what I'm doing..."He smirked, "Is that how you talk to your pack?""You think this is a good time to be making jokes?!""As my father would say, 'a good joke goes along way before the slaughter'.""Wasn't it you, doing the slaughtering? Jokes come easy when you're the winning side."He scoffed and nodded his
Blackness.Time was intangible.That's all there was.I was wondering in space, aimlessly walking around in nothingness.Was this the afterlife? Was my soul in limbo? Was this really my fate in the end?Her voice was still there, but how could that be? Do I still have a connection to the real world?"I'll love you forever, in this world, and the next. You can rest now, we'll be ok.""We'll be ok.""We'll be ok.""We'll be ok."No, No, No. They won't be ok...They'll never be ok. Diana will never be safe, nor my children as long as those bastards were still breathing. They went against nature. They are not werewolf, but a manifestation of pure evil, allowing jealously, greed, and power to consume their minds. Of course we all can fall victim to our desires, but to turn against your family, and your pack, goes against what a werewolf was.Loyalty was a rarity these days and I was sick and tired of it.The darkness was brief, and also a curious end. I thought this would be different, or m
Diana:He's not dead.He's not deadHE'S NOT DEAD!HE'S NOT DEAD!I kept repeating those words in my head in a panic, but I couldn't sense his heartbeat. He hasn't moved from the floor since he initially collapsed.His life was fading away faster than I could breathe in air.After realizing what happened, I froze, unable to comprehend what was happening.My brother and Damian were both lifeless on the ground. They both came here to save me, and I couldn't do a damn thing to save them.Tears were pouring down my cheeks, and throat was so tight I couldn't bare to breathe again, but I had to do something.We were heading towards the doorway as Aria, Aaron and the others stood silently, watching us make our exit. My arms were tightly wrapped around Loki's neck, and my legs were too weak to walk, but I felt a new power within me, giving me the strength to go back.I looked up to Loki, "Let me say goodbye."He stopped his pace and sighed heavily, "Luna..." He looked back to Damian on the fl
Damian:Time was going in slow motion.The plunger slowly pushing into her neck by Aaron's finger.The tears falling down her face as she watched me hold myself back in fear.Then, in a split second, it was Adam lunging forward to stop Aaron.As for me, I was frozen. I was too late to call Adam off, and by the time he lunged forward, one of his own men who also occupied the room shot him straight in the chest.Before I could even call out his name his body already hit the floor. There was no blood, but I could hear him struggling to breathe. We were wearing armour, but silver at close range could penetrate into our skin.Diana's eyes lit up as she watched her brother's body twitch for life on the floor."Adam!!" She struggled more in his arms but was too afraid of the syringe still protruding from her neck.My jaw clenched tightly together, "YOU TRAITOROUS BASTARD! YOUR WORSE THAN A ROUGE, YOU'RE A FILTHY RAT!" My hands were shaking as I tried my best to contain my beast who was ready
Damian:We climbed down three more floors to the twenty first and not a soul was seen. There were countless empty beds, and rooms, clearly evacuated from previous patients. Remnants of patients' belongings littered each floor, telling Adam and I that everyone left in such a rush they never had the time to pick up anything. Purses, bags, clothes, and even food trays were left to turn cold.I wondered if this was all Holden's doing. Did he really evacuate an entire hospital for Diana?"There's something wrong, it's too quiet, and not a word from Eric or Aaron." Adam was losing his patience, kicking a tray full of fruit and soup to splatter across the empty hallway.I followed a rogue cherry that travelled near my foot, then looked backed to Adam who was breathing heavily. "We still need to be sharp, don't lose your cool. We're getting closer, I can smell her.""I can too... I just don't understand why this entire building is empty."Among all the fruit Adam knocked over, there was somet
