It was dark outside and everyone was asleep. The guardians of the pack were awake at this hour to stroll the area and make sure of the security of the pack. Jace was beside me and asleep. I know it's because he's tired. His wound had already been treated earlier, and we were both asleep in the room.I have been awake since earlier because I can't fall asleep. All the information that I have heard earlier is still in my head. I still can't forget it and it bothers me so much.“You should be sleeping, Margaux, because you have done many things earlier.”Those words were uttered by my wolf, that made me let out a deep breath. I tried to close my eyes, but still couldn't fall asleep, so I decided to stare at Jace.His handsome face made me smile. I couldn't stop caressing his face and that woke him up. Jace furrowed his brow, which made me smile.“You're still awake, baby? Why are you not sleeping?”I smiled from his query before letting out a deep breath.“I can't sleep, Jace, but don't
Taking a bath with the man you love is the best moment that you could have. Jace and I spent almost two hours inside the bathroom, showering while making love. I never felt tired from what we did because I enjoyed this moment. There's something deep inside that this would be the last shower that Jace and I would share. I know that it is not good to overthink, but I just couldn't stop myself.I really felt something would about to happen and I know my instincts. It is sometimes real.“It is not good to overthink, Margaux. You have to stop whatever you're feeling now. This will only bring distraction to you.”Luna uttered, so I nodded my head while letting out a deep breath. Jace was outside of the cabin because he was currently discussing with the other werewolves. They have plans on how they are going to tighten the security of the pack against the enemies. I was left here and will come out of the cabin later.“You know, it's kind of bothering me a lot, Luna. Knowing that we have so m
Liezel, the woman that Alpha Clauss had called earlier, ran in Jace's direction to hug my mate. I suddenly feel my hands clenched into fists seeing that scene.“How are you, Jace? I missed you.”I grit my teeth after she said that. This woman had the courage to hug my mate and she's making my blood boil. No one should dare to hug my mate in front of me.“Excuse me?”I have decided to speak up, so Jace pushed the woman away from her. He may have realized that I was next to him.“You shouldn't hug me, Liezel.”I looked at Jace when he uttered that. I wonder why he knew this woman.“Why? Don't you miss me?” Liezel asked and she doesn't seem to care about me.Damn.“Why would I? Are you out of your mind? I was with my mate.” I was a bit shocked when Jace pulled me near him. Liezel turned her gaze in my direction with her furrowed brows.“This woman is your mate? Why didn't I know about this?”My eyes were with Jace and the woman in front of us. I was wondering who she was in Jace's life
I was shocked when Liezel sat next to my mate. My blood boils because of what she did but I don't want to act rude in front of them. I still respect her, although this woman had no respect for me.“It is inappropriate if you sit down next to the Alpha, Liezel.”Clauss complained, which made the woman roll her eyes. She moved away and I was relieved by that.“Let's talk about your purpose of being here, Alpha Clauss.” Jace uttered, and everyone listened. I was just next to my mate, simply observing Liezel, who kept on staring at Jace. I don't like the way she looks at my man, but as I said, I won't do anything against her unless I lose my temper.“As I said earlier, Alpha Jace, I wanted to ask for a favor if my sister could stay here for a while. Her case in the pack was still being processed and once done, I will take her here and bring her back to the pack.”I let out a deep breath after I heard those words from Alpha Clauss. I wanted to disagree with allowing this woman knowing that
The sister of Alpha Clauss was still scanning the Alpha's things, while I was still sitting on the couch. I didn't confront her and just allow her to continue what makes her happy. The way she touched my mate's things was like she owned it. When I became Jace's mate, I never touched his property and it's maybe because it wasn't my thing. I don't invade Jace's private things unless he says so. But this woman in front of me had the guts to touch the things of my mate.I was supposed to do something but I didn't want her to think that I was being greedy. I didn't mind her and focused on waiting for Jace. An hour had passed already, yet Jace and Alpha Clauss were still inside of the room.“I couldn't believe it!”I turned my gaze in Liezel's direction when she screamed. When my head was in her direction, I saw her holding a small photo. She was smiling while scanning that photo and it confused me. I was wondering what's in the picture that made her smile so widely.“Jace is still keeping
Although I wasn't hungry, I had no other option but to eat because that's what I told Jace. I told him that I'm hungry, so we can leave far from Liezel. But I realized that even if we kept avoiding Liezel, we can't do that and now that she's here living with us. Liezel would always be there and what I should do is to deal with her.She shouldn't do anything that could harm us, or else I will be the one that she was going to face.Hours had passed already, and Jace went out of the cabin to keep talking towards Alpha Clauss since the Alpha was about to leave. I decided to stay inside the cabin for a while when Emerald came over with my brother. They are here in the living area, talking to me.“Mom and dad were looking for you, Margaux. They wanted to talk to you in private.”I looked at my brother Luke because of what he said. I still can't digest the things that I have learned. Luke and Willow are not my biological brothers. This is hard to believe and I don't know what to do next. I h
Seeing Jace while laughing with his ex-girlfriend makes me jealous. I know I shouldn't feel this way because they were not doing anything but I hated to admit that I couldn't stop myself from feeling jealous. I am jealous of the way Liezel makes my mate laugh.“Margaux?”Luna already calling my name at the back of my head that made me let out a deep breath. She was trying to wake me up from my thoughts.“It's not good, Margaux. Please stop from overthinking. You should not doubt our mate. Jace wouldn't do something to hurt us because once he does that, he will be affected as well. He would feel the pain that we felt now.” Luna uttered, so I took a deep breath and took my eyes away from them.I turned my head back to Emerald who was still beside me. She's looking at Jace and Liezel. I know what she was thinking as I could visualize it because of the way that she looked at them.“You know, I feel something toward that girl, Margaux.”I turned my head at Jace and Liezel because of Emeral
Jace encircled his hands around my waist, pulled me closer to him and then took my lips in front of Liezel. I never expected him to do that, however, I can't stop myself from smiling. Jace never hesitates to kiss me even if there's many people around us.“I love you, baby.”Those are the words that he uttered after we separated from each other. As I turned my head at the back, Liezel was no longer there. She left without telling us and maybe because she can't take the scene that she witnessed.“I love you too, Jace.” I responded, and he kissed me on my forehead. Jace holds my left hand and starts pulling it away from the field. I was trying to find Liezel but she was no longer to be found.“I do apologize if I enjoyed talking to Liezel earlier. We just recalled our childhood memories and please… Don't ever think that we were doing something bad.” I turned my head at Jace when he said those words. My eyes were staring deeply into his eyes as I wanted to know if Jace was sincere with t
