RAYLA

I stood outside the door, debating whether I should go inside or not. At the las minute, I decided it would be better to just leave him alone for the time being, I made my way back downstairs and still found Nyx in the same position I left her, except that she was sitting this time and munching on a cookie.

“That was quick.” She remarked, not bothering to hide her amusement.

I grit my teeth in anger,telling myself not to react because as much as I can’t stand her, I still needed her help to be able to get out of the pack due to the invisible force field she had around it. “You said the barrier will weaken tomorrow, is that correct?” I asked to be sure whether I’ll need her help with that or not.

“Why? Going somewhere? Anyways the barrier won’t weaken until twelve in the morning.” She leaned closer. “You need my help.” She was quick to figure it out, possibly putting the piece together after my outburst earlier.

“Isn’t that the reason you were employed? Although I don’t

    RAYLA Looking at him hurts, as we lay down side by side on the bed, so I turned my face the other way, Mom’s words echoing in my mind. Killian would be so furious when he finds out but what was I supposed to do? Finding out he killed someone at the age of seventeen had not only left me stunned but speechless because then it also proved he has been living this double life for as young as the age of seventeen. There was a pause in my thought when I felt him pull me against his chest, cuddling me softly as our limbs tangled with one another. My eyes shut on their own accord as he buried his face into the hollow of my neck, sniffing me in a way that made me tickled. One of his hands splayed across my stomach, running his fingers on my flesh lazily. I didn’t want to lie here with my own thoughts while guilt ate me alive so, I said the first thing that came to mind when I opened my mouth. “So…your first time huh?” I teased, turning to face him now, my breath hitching against my throat wh

    RAYLA I stared at the alarm clock on the nightstand, wordlessly watching each second tickle by, my thoughts far away from me. The more minutes tickled by, the more aware of how many hours I had with Damien, who happens to be asleep. I swallowed the lump in my throat, blinking away from the alarm to look at the ceiling instead. I still felt a bit sore between my thighs, a constant reminder of what we did a few hours ago. My face heated at the memory, making me silently clear my throat as I stared out of the window, it was getting dark meaning it will be dawn soon. Slipping out of bed, I grabbed Damien’s shirt and slipped in on, looking down at the length to decide if it was okay for me to walk around in. Since I was heading downstairs where I’m bound to run into anyone, I decided to wear a skirt for added length before making my way downstairs. The place was almost empty except for a few servants going about their duties, I paused by the stairs landing. “Excuse me, do you have any

    RAYLA After Mom left, I turned to Ma, my gaze fixed on her accusingly. “You knew she was trying to get me back here, she went as far as blackmailing me and you let her?” I was disappointed, I thought she was on my side! Now the only family support I thought I had was slowly slipping away, I guess I deserve it for being such a shitty person. “You make it hard to defend you, both of you! The idea was for you to wait, I was going to talk to them but when I came later it was to find you gone. What were you thinking running off like that? Damien is the leader of a gang of rogues, do you have any idea the kind of danger you were putting yourself in?” She snapped at me, her tone filled with both anger and disappointment. “How was I supposed to defend you when you pulled a stunt like that?” “When has talking ever settled anything with them? You don’t get it do you? Ma, her blackmailing me here is proof enough that no amount of talking will achieve anything with them, it was why I chose to

    RAYLA I snatched my wrist from his grasp without struggle because he let me go. I looked down at my bleeding tutor hoping he’s not dead. People were out of class and staring at us with wide eyes, him most especially, I guess there goes the idea of me trying to protect him! I tried to rush to the tutor but Damien dragged me back then proceeded to take me outside of the building. “Stop!” I screamed once we were out of the parking lot. “You can’t threatened my Mom and think that’s okay! What if that man loses his life? He was just trying to protect me!” I hissed as anger stir up inside me. “Whatever beef you have is between us, you don’t have to drag other people in it.”“Are you fucking with me Rayla?” His expression turned murderous. “Well I guess this should be a consolation that your mother is still breathing right now because of you! When my Dad got married to her, I didn’t like her but did I try to get in the way of their shitty relationship? No… if she tries to get in between mi

    RAYLA I hate! Hate!! Hate!!! Damien! Why do I have to be subjected to his constants torture on a daily basis? I fumed, slamming the door behind me. I took a deep breath like my mom taught me, whenever my anger got out of control. And who do I have to blame for this entire situation? Her! If she wasn't mated to Damien's father then my life wouldn't have ended up like this. I strolled into the bathroom making sure the flour doesn't dust-drop to the floor. The servants already hate me as it is, they think I'm too low rank to be ordering them around, despite being an Alpha step-daughter. I took off my top, exposing my black bra when a soft knock sounded on my door. "A minute please!" I yelled out, knowing who it was from the scent. I hurriedly took off the rest of my clothes before stepping into the shower. I closed my eyes, trying to make sense of Damien's attitude over the past week. Everyone knows we don't get along, he hated me since the first day I came here, he calle

    RAYLA The whole thing with Damien was still very much weird, I couldn't stop thinking about it as I stepped into the training school premises, he still refuses to tell me what all that was about. He pretty much stormed out after he accused me of being the reason his hands were wounded and I haven't set my eyes on him since then, our parents were worried when he didn't come to the dining hall for dinner. It was a rule my Step-father basically forced upon us all, meals are important and it will be a family bonding time no members of the family should miss. I cringed at the memory, getting family moments while living in a place like the pack house was difficult. The castle was huge and home to everyone, there were guest quarters, the Delta wolves quarters for retired council members, as they became the Alpha's responsibility. Someone bumped into me, causing me to drop my backpack in the process. "Really? The place isn't wide enough for two people to share it?" I muttered rolling my

    DAMIEN Rayla was thirteen when I first met her, our parents introduced us as soon to be siblings. I couldn't put a finger on it but there was something about her that annoyed the fuck out of me. I hated the way she smiled at me even though it was clear she wasn't happy about the current life we were being shoved into. Yet she gave me a big smile as she introduced herself. I also didn't like how bubbly she was, I hated how she tried to include me in everything, how she tried to treat me like a real brother! It wasn't until years later I realised I was helplessly in love with my step sister, I hated her smile because I loved it, I hated the way she treated me as her brother because being her brother was the last thing I wanted. In order to mask this forbidden feeling, I became mean to her but that's just the thing about Forbidden, knowing you aren't supposed to want something makes you want that thing more and that's the case with Rayla. I wanted her more than anything else in thi

    RAYLA By the time I got home, the news of what happened at school already spread like wildfire. Every servant was snickering in my direction and whispering amongst themselves as I walked past and went into my room. I flung my backpack on the bed along with myself. It doesn't help that every time I close my eyes, I still get flashbacks of what happened in the cafeteria, I couldn't decide which one to be mad about. Brandon rejected me and then accused me of planning it with Damien or Damien kissing me in front of the whole school and then declaring me his mate! Nothing makes sense anymore, I buried my face into one of my pillows, screaming into it. I lost how many minutes I had been screaming for until a knock at the door interrupted my screaming section. Fearing it was Damien, because I would do anything to avoid seeing him now. As the door opened a second later, my mom walked in. I immediately stood up, knowing why she was here. "I can explain..." Even though I have no idea what

    RAYLA Despite our teasing remarks when we were out on a walk that indicates we couldn’t wait to get back to the house and ravished each other. Instead we decided to play monopoly once we arrived back at the house which took a dark turn pretty quickly, bringing out both Damien and Hunter's competitive side. When they voted for a second round of the game, I sweetly declined and took a step back, telling them I prefer to watch instead. Nyx had taken it upon herself to call me every synonym of the word coward, my usual response was to ignore her but Damien had merely cast her a dark look, that made her shut up immediately. While they argue and yell at each other about the game, I was texting my friends in the group chat as they brought me up to date on what has been happening at school. Apparently Brandon was still being as bitter as the day I left, he goes around telling anyone who cares to listen that I ran away with my step-brother because our parents found out about us. The fa

    RAYLA I was surprised when I woke up the following morning and found Damien still sleeping, mainly because I wasn’t used to waking up in the morning and finding him there. The healer really knows her stuff because placing him on bed rest definitely forced him to relax. I slowly climbed out of bed so I didn't wake him up. Several minutes later when I emerged from the bathroom after brushing my teeth and doing my other business, he was still asleep. I went downstairs to have breakfast, Hunter was the only one present at the breakfast table when I walked in, I slumped down dejectedly on one of the empty seats. Words couldn’t describe how much I missed going to school, I missed hanging out with my friends and doing random stuff even though I never voiced it out to anyone, I mean what’s the point? Just because I made the decision to run away from home doesn’t mean I’m not allowed to miss it. I looked up upon hearing my name. “Did you say something?” I asked to be sure. “Yeah, I was as

    RAYLA It was night time before Damien finally woke up and was immediately moved to his bedroom. His wound had completely healed up by then but the healer still insisted he need to be on bed rest for another three days to which Hunter had made a joke about. It was half true though because we all knew he was going to hate the idea. Guilt was already eating me alive after I finished talking to Mom and she gave me three days max, the same number of days it will take for Damien to be out of bed rest and for Nyx magic barrier to weaken.“You can’t tell Damien that I asked our parents for help.” I begged, pulling him aside so Damien wouldn’t hear us. “At least wait until I’m out of here before you do, if he knows then he will never let me leave and I can’t go back on my word.” Hunter stared at me with his arms across his chest. “What did you do? And besides, I can’t keep something like that from him, if I don’t tell him, someone else will.” He pointed out. I brushed my hair away from my

    RAYLA It has been more than two hours of not hearing any news about Damien’s condition after the healer slammed the door on our face. We stood outside her room, pacing around and waiting for news when one of the border guards hurried inside toward Hunter, a panicked look across his face. “Beta! There are more troops approaching the pack from the north!” He declared and I watched as Hunter’s face darkened. “More army? That can’t be good, Damien is in no condition to fight!” I rubbed my face, hoping it would smooth away the frustration crawling at my guts and yet again I was made to wonder why Damien chose this time to announce his pack knowing how many enemies they had but then I recalled he had mentioned not too long ago that the pack was running out of supplies. “There’s no need to worry Rayla, stay here in case the healer has some news, I’ll lead our army.” He informed me before taking his leave. “Wait!” Nyx called after him and then hurried to meet him halfway across the room.
