Book 2 preview
"Zuria." I created a shield protecting us from the tranquilizer bullets that are being shot her direction as well as the dragon. I kinda have faith that Zuria will not kill Naya and thankfully she just annihilated the haters off her shoulders. The winner was announced, the dragon disappeared shots stopped being fired and when I looked back Zuria is on the floor. She's looks terrible, her face and hair is covered in dry blood. She has cuts, bruises and burns all over. I engulfed her with my wings to prevent anyone seeing at her weakest. In a matter of I carried her off and my Pannak joined me. I don't when they started caring about Zuria but I am glad they love and respect her.
I woke up next to Zoe, I have a feeling something is wrong. She is yet to wake. Raven is a homeopath and her constant reassurance gave me hope, that my Vita is not dead but she is so far gone that it is hard to consider her alive. Zoe is powerful, whatever is going on I know she will be able to fight though it and it sucks her condition has been the same for like weeks now. My investigation proceeded as normal. But the thing is, nothing. Whatever happening under the carpet, secretes not making the stories connect and my constant worry for my mate breaking me. Like sleeping beauty, I kissed her lips every day hoping that fairy tale held a spark of truth. I was no longer surprised to be disappointed, besides today was the end of the forth month and she is still unconscious.
Waking up felt like a long awaited dream. Staring at the man I thought I would never see again brought back so much heartache. It's funny how my haven was him and opening my eyes to see his gorgeous face made all the difference. I will be his fated love him like none other and the glow in his eyes shared the same sentiment. "Ah. Zoe you awake!" Zuria cried out holding the door open for, Loralei, Chiara and Raven before attacking me with a hug. Laughing, felt foreign to me, something long forgone and laughing at that moment made me hold on to the memory. Taylor stepped in and I felt the blood rush through my brain as the silence dragged.
"Guys can you leave Zuria and I alone." I know what Zoe was doing. I might be blind but I'm not stupid. I know she knows I'm not that stupid so when the door closed I felt her angry burning eyes. "What the hell are you playing at Zuria?" I took off my shirt. I stood in the middle of the room in just my bra and scars. I know the girls saw them when they cleaned me up that day, I know Loki saw the scars the day I wanted to run away and I know she can see the scars because I heard her gasp. "My ex did that to me."
I don't know what this woman is making of me but the prince of hell sits on the floor helplessly listening to my little leach crying her eyes out. She stayed inside for almost an hour when I heard the door open. "I am trying to push you away." She joined me on the floor drawing her knees close to her chest. I hate to believe I despise her tears. She's never at least gave me an opportunity or chance with her and I still don't have the will to leave her right now. "You've never stopped pushing me away. Its exhausting now. Zuria I will not force you to make me part of your life, I just want to keep you alive long enough to ensure you will live." I give her a sad smile she will never see. She scooted closer to me and I sat still wanting to see what will happen next. "I don't hate you."
I am not in any type of relationship with anyone. Okay that's a lie but when Zoe practically rejected me, I could nothing but accept what was happening. I watched as my best friend forgot about me, she fell in love with the demon and apart from the usual threats I was useless. Zuria who I came to like slowly disappeared into the same rabbit hole my best friend and friend fell in love and I was alone. I have never been alone, I way too popular in high school. Hunt and feast with my family, shared a room with my youngest brother who is alpha. The rest of my time is Zoe, was Zoe and it hurt being replaced.
Oh shoot. She tasted my blood. She knows. Before she could say anything I moved closer to block her mouth ignoring all discomfort and pain. Surprised and concerned she stopped talking, the moment she did I let go almost crying out in agony. She saw my pain and she held on to my shoulders ignoring the growling bloodied alpha wolves. "I'm fine. I'm fine." I assured the two behind me and this lovely girl in front of me. I just had to stop her from uttering any more words. "It's fine. There no reason to feel guilty." "I doubt you ever noticed me, hi. My name is Jessica but you can call me Jess. I'm in your class. I liked you but now, can we be friends?" "You like me?" The two wolves stepped closer with my words but my focus is on the crazy woman who decided to attack the person she likes than speak to me logically. "Liked, so please tell your alphas to relax." "My what?"
Big mistake playing with two big bad wolves that wore sheep's clothing longer that either wanted to. We will ruin this man for any others. We will drive him insane that we will be all that he craves. "Gu-" "Don't speak unless spoken." "Now do you prefer we lift you or will you be able to walk on your own?" "Walking where?" Before he could say something, the man took his shirt off. "You said no speaking unless spoken, I heard a question and words therefore-" Cain grabbed the blabbering man hauling him on his shoulder and the other kneeled to remove his pants. "Hey. What the hell? Out me down. I did not give a response. Where the hell are me going. What the f*ck?! Mhhmmm mmhmm..."
A FEW HOURS LATER "Aww... I am honoured that you care about me but go to your friends, I will be fine. Ming, I can do this on my own... Besides with you there I might choke..." "I can give you something to pre-choke on..." Ming gave him a suggestive wink and he does despise that fact he did consider the outrageous offer of a futile attempt to stay for the talk. (Knock. Knock). Thankfully the knocks on the door distracts them both from enjoying each other's body once more and he focused of the two figures outside. (Knock. Knock). "I hope you are fully dressed before opening the dammed door. (Knock. Knock)." Kit ducked his head suddenly shy, whoever said that absolutely destroyed what was left of their hot moment. Kit opened the door for his best friends to enter while also kicking out, Ming who was reluctant to leave. "Go. Get out of here Ming. Besides you cannot stay because Forth called, you have to do Moon stuff... Go perform your duties and responsibilities as a human leader t
BEAM'S P. O. V This man's personality was perfect... he is quirky yet so lovable, oh shit. Was he that unhappy with Forth? Wait, why didn't he feel like his doing something wrong? Why did all this feel like taking care of Kel should be something so natural, normal, and fantastic? "So you found your mate and I assumed Fort is short for. Forth?" His incredibly intelligent and fast to catch on, Beam is still undetermined if that is a good thing. Kel sat comfortably on his car his curiosity keeping his attention evenly distributed. He focused on the on the road. Hating the fact he did not tell Kel and leaving him to figure it all out on his own which took a shorter amount of time than him explaining would have. "What made you catch on?" "Haha. The way brother Wayo stared at you… He is the one that is most protective of me and I guess he disapproves seeing you helping me out. Thanks by the way, I am not really the best when it comes to situations that require me to inconvenience someon
BEAM'S P.O.VEverything was going well until it did not and it did not the day Forth bit him. They are still very much interested in each other, in all aspects of the word but they grow distant as if something crucial is missing.Beam feels wrong being with his mate and there are times when he has this terrible thought that tells him this emptiness is not worth it. That he must master up all his strength and run far, very far away that this feelings evaporate. He knows that logic is nonsensical, they are fated mates now and they took a literal term to 'to death do them part'. That his decision to commit means there's no escape from all these feelings and that knowledge is enough to make him want to cry. There are days he wanted to leave his dammed beloved. Oh, goddess forgiveness but it is nothing bad he just contemplated it. Okay, it does not help him if he keep contemplating his decisions. It does not help that he keeps overthinking his situation more than once. And that any time he
KEL'S P. O. V"Here."He directed Wayo and his friend."This is Kit. Kit this is Kelly but everyone calls him Kel."He never wished to give Wayo a bad name ever, even amongst his friends. He politely smiled, shaking his hand. It was clear as day this omega is super high on suppressants. How do they stand the scent? Why is he taking large dosages of suppressants? Does he not have his alpha? There are cases he has witnessed where pimps would force their sex workers to drink the drug, to of course avoid pregnancies. He was not part of the crowed but his friend was. Eventually the scent blocker became something he avoided, that drug was a reminder of a life he was grateful he was saved from. He did not want to say anything or ask in case he does have a reason to hide his nature. Everyone has to have a reason to do anything, right."Beam will be here any... Beam over here."No shit. The dammed odds have to be impossible. Act normal, he is. Why did stupid his heart light up, at best the bet
KIT'S P.O.VSelf-pity, embarrassment and shame override his entire being. What the fuck is wrong with him, his nature? How the fuck did he not know? How the fuck did he not sense it? Why did his body betray him? He literally took suppressants not so long ago, why is this happening now to him? He prayed the Earth have pity on him and swallow him whole.It is his body, how could he not detect the changes. He has never willingly been intimate with someone before Ming. Perhaps that is why he naturally thought the increase in his sex drive was due to the raging endorphins spurring his hormones. Common he should have known better, he should have been able to treat every changes in his own body as they come. For goodness sake he is the damned doctor. How foolish he has been indulging his uncontrollable, irresponsible, drugged part of him. His been so foolish thinking his being safe, in reality he has been living as if there are no real consequences to his nature.Okay, breathe Kit. So what,
BEAM'S P. O. V"Happy anniversary!"A very confused Forth walked in, exchanged his shoes for indoor flats and stared dumbly at Beam. It was yet to ring a bell."It is our first fuckerversary. We were not together so for the years this date passed, I just let it slide but now look. Cake!"He said with a smile wide, his focus evenly distributed between the man before him and the sweetness of the cake he baked. It is not the best looking cake ever and probably tastes like diabetes more than anything and his not sure if homemade cake should give you heartburn. Forth wouldn't judge him harshly, yes he sucks at cooking but he really worked hard on making the white covered icing cake with a 'Happy Fuckerversary' elegantly written.This is a special moment to him that called for a major celebration in his life and of course it did not go without warning from his fathers. It is not like his going through this bonding blind his fathers lectured him in the difficulties of having a mate, as alway
Two days after the wedding...MING'S P. O. VThey were all packed up and ready to leave his family home and head back to human civilization. Kit looked up at the perfect view of the woods, pack schools, play grounds and the most beautiful sunset."I will miss seeing the sun set."For some explainable reason seeing his home in Kit's eyes brought a warm, sappy emotions. He kissed his fated mates cheek and for a few moments just took in the scenery, Kit's body balancing on his."Thank you for showing me your home. It is beautiful and peaceful here, I am surprised you left."He was elated to hear that because soon he wanted this to be their home too. He does not want Kit far away from him not even for a second, how would he survive days? Shit. Now he knows how his father felt when his mother worked in human territory as a therapist, he gets why he wanted her close to him. Would Kit find the separation as devastating as he would? He doesn't want Kit to sacrifice his career for him like his
KIT'S P.O.V Ming left. He is gone. Did he do something wrong? Why was he being emotional? They had unprotected sex once. Fuck. No. He cannot risk getting pregnant by having unprotected sex again. What if they do not work out? His gone. Maybe he will kick him out, worse break up with him. Wait, are they even dating? Yes. He is meeting his family, shit will he want to meet his? Dammit he left. He broke a promise. His gone. Shit he is still not back after his 'well thought' shower. Did he do something wrong? Is he being emotional? No. Stop overthinking Kit… There is one solution to this travesty that will save him face and allow Ming to return to the room without making anything awkward or make the other uneasy. Tonight perhaps he will just have to ask Perm for a different room, the condom thing is something he is defiantly not willing to compromise on. His request was not bazaar, right? Condoms. Whatever they are in terms of relations, they might as well be safe right? At this point he
Ming's POV He knew Kit was nervous in fact he pray to all the surrounding God listening his family not screw this relationship up. The level grounds their relationship stood was mind braving, nothing could fuck it up.His dad knew there was no changing his mind. So he targeted Kit with a sob story, that had piece and bits of accuracy attached to a lie. He was going to be the future owner of the Daichapanya industries. In fact his ideas involve distributing their services beyond China. Kit doesn't have to be involved because he second guess his relationship between his parents. Assuring him to follow his dad without dwelling deep in thought contemplating he got up and when they turned the corner his dad broke the silence. "Do you know how impossible it is to convince you to do something?" Hoping his mom does not mention the fact she left her job to be closer to dad. Shit, Kit stole his heart but his was protected uncertain about them. Although the night before was magical, he was st
