A month have passed and things between Anita and Nathan were still the same. He was still very much in love with Layla if it can be called that and Anita has been focusing on her packs. Both packs have grown from strength to strength, more rogues joined the rogue pack and now numbers have increased. Also, there were less rogue attacks on pack now that the rogue pack was there and accepting everyone.
Jackson and Divan went back to Silver Sands the day after they came back from looking for the coven. Jackson was keeping his distance from Nathan but he on the other side wanted to be with him like they used to. He did not understand why his father would suddenly not have time for him, he even confided in Layla about the matter and she told him that he might be dealing with his own things with his mate and needed time.
That was when they just came back and Nathan understood but as time went by he saw that his father was avoiding him. Whenever he would come into the room whe
Nathan kneeled there for a while with his heartbreaking, for the life of him he could not understand how he could choose Layla over his mate, as far as he could remember he and Divan always wanted their mates. Then why did he choose Layla over her, or did she not want him? What exactly happened, who was she? The more he thought about her the more things did not make sense.Since he stopped talking like that on the phone with Divan, his beta called his father to check on him, he told him what happened on the phone just now. This only made Jackson angrier, he went out of the mansion to look for his son and found him at the back of the house just sitting there looking into space. “What is it with you now?” asked Jackson when he saw him like that.“What do you mean father? Did I do something to offend you maybe? Tell me so that I can fix it, I am learning things that I was not aware of today and some of them just don’t make sense to me.” He to
Two more weeks have passed since the visit to the rogue pack and the voice in Nathan’s head has now been constant. This frustrated him because he did not know who this person was but by the sound of her voice, they were happy together, he longed for that and he did not understand why because he had Layla. He loved her and she was everything he wanted, or so he thought. Layla on the other side was tired of drugging Nathan all night so that she doesn’t sleep with him.She felt like it has been long enough since she did what she did and even if she were to sleep with him now there is no way Nathan would leave her, he was in love with her now, or so she believed. “What are you thinking about?” asked Nico seeing that she just went quiet while they were talking. “Just how well everything has been going.” Answered Layla avoiding his eyes. “Yes, you are right, everything has been going well but that bitch has not let up on me yet, she still p
When Layla initiated the sex with Nathan, he welcomed it, he was frustrated and wanted to just forget about the voice for just a moment. It drove him crazy not knowing who the voice belonged to, they made passionate love and Layla was content afterward. They sat there in each other's arms catching their breaths, with Layla wondering why she did not do this sooner but got her answer when she thought of the spell. She visibly tensed when the thought of the spell came to mind.“My love, we have to get dressed before anyone comes knocking here.” He told her but Layla remained seated, she was happy to hear him call her such sweet names after they had just made love, she was worried because the witch told her that the spell will be broken if she and Nathan slept together. Tears glittered in her eyes, happy and overwhelmed that she finally had him. “Anita, my love, we have to be decent, you know that my father or Divan will come knocking here any moment now.”
When Nathan was done showering, he got dressed then looked around his room, he found a lot of things that did not belong to him or Anita. He figured that they belong to Layla, rage rose from the pit of his stomach, he tried mind linking an omega to come and clear them up but then when there was no response of any sign of a connection, he remembered that Brice was not with him. He sighed ‘Brice, please come back to me, I am incomplete without you.’ He said then left the room.He went to the kitchen and found an omega. He told her to remove everything that belongs to Layla in his room and do spring cleaning on it. The omega had questions but would not dare ask them, their alpha had changed, from killing those warriors to rejecting his true mate and taking Layla as his chosen one. He was not the alpha they once knew, he was different and she was not about to put herself in the firing line just to know the reason behind his actions.Nathan went out and found Di
Nathan spent the whole week training hard hoping that Brice will come back but there was no sign of his wolf, now he was frustrated by this and the fact that he's been avoiding his father because he did not know what he will say to him when he sees him. He was disappointed in himself for being weak and letting Layla manipulate him like that. Speaking of Layla, when they got back from the rogue pack with Divan Layla was nowhere to be seen.They thought that she was going to come back the following day but she has not, they went to Rosewood on the third day of her not coming back but did not find her, they threatened Nico and told him that he was going to die in her place if he did not present her in the next week. Nico, unfortunately, did not know where his mate was, when Layla left the pack she did not go to her mate. She was worried about what he was going to say when she tells him that she broke the spell by sleeping with Nathan.The only thing Nico ever asked of her
Nathan walked to the training grounds, upon arrival he looked around, there were a few warriors training there, but his mind was not there at all or on them, while he was standing there, he thought of the day he first shifted years ago. There were a lot of them that shifted that day, Divan was there as well as Steven. They were standing next to the big tree that is close to the training grounds.He remembered the three of them discussing about how they wished their wolves to look like, each one saying how awesome their wolf would be compared to the other. He remembered saying. ‘my wolf will be there best out of yours and you know why?’ he had asked his friends that day and Divan was the one who asked. ‘Why?’ Divan had asked. ‘Because I am the future alpha, so my wolf is going to be the best!’ he had bragged to them.‘But mine will be the best than yours Steven because I am a beta’s son, I have beta blood running through m
Three days have passed, and Nathan has not woken up. Jackson has been with him all this time, he got a tent and sleeping bags for the both and stayed there with him. Divan and Laura have been running the pack together while Jackson and Nathan are not available. Jackson was worried about his son, not only that but the way he had been acting towards him.He has made mistakes that he admits but he too did not make life easy for him after everything that has happened. He was angry but now he regrets not giving his son a chance. Laura comes to him as he was sitting outside the tent watching the pack member’s train. “My love, please go and show then have something to eat.” She has been coming to bring him food every day because he refused to leave Nathan alone.But he has not been showering. “I can’t leave him alone, just bring me something to eat like you have been doing.” He told him, he looked like he aged a few years due to the level o
Nathan wakes up inhaling a deep breath like he has been drowning, this startled Laura as she was not expecting it, her hand was on her chest with her eyes popped looking at him. Nathan finally noticed her and he gave her a small smile. “Am sorry, I didn’t mean to startle you.” He apologized to her and Laura calmed down a bit. “Am glad to see you back and your father will be happy too,” Laura told him getting up from where she was seating.Nathan wanted to ask about Anita but was afraid of the answer he was going to get from Laura. “I have mind-linked your father and told him that you are awake. Anita is okay.” She told him without looking at him and left. Nathan sighed feeling defeated and wondering what it will take for him to fix things with everyone. ‘Why is she angry with you?’ asked Brice making Nathan sigh once again.‘She is angry because of what I did to our mate, she is her daughter remember?’ B
“Luka, stop playing with sand, you know mama wont like it when you get into the house full of sand.” Nova said to her brother, but Luka stood up and continued to throw sand around giggling. “Luka no!” Nova stood up attempting to stop him, but Luka ran to the packhouse with Nova right behind him. He was giggling as he ran and almost falling.He got in and ran to the kitchen where their mother was. “No running!” Anita reprimanded and Luka stopped then turned to look at his sister. “Mama!” called Nova coming into the kitchen. “Yes, princess?” answered Anita busy making cookie dough. “Look at your son, he was at it again just now.” Anita stiffened her laugh then looked at Luka, little Luka had sand all over his face and even on his hair.“You were playing with sand again Luka.” Said Anita looking at him.“No” said Luka shaking his head. “He was mama, look at him.&rd
As the pain tore through him Nico clutched at his chest feeling like his heart was being ripped out of his chest. The pain was unbearable and excruciating. He felt like he was going to die right there and then. “Aaaaah!!” he cried out painfully clutching his chest. As the pain intensified, he shifted into his wolf form then he looked up in the sky and howled, other werewolves close by heard the painful howl and joined in.He was close to the border of Rosewood when this happened and the werewolves that heard him were the warriors on patrol. After the howl, they went looking for him and found him in his wolf form curled up on the ground looking helpless. They surrounded him as the other warrior mind linked Marco to come quickly. As the other beta, Marco could sense the urgency in the warrior’s voice and came running to see what was happening.When he got there, he saw Nico curled up on the ground looking like an injured dog. ‘What happened,
Nathan’s heart ached seeing his mate like that, he closed his eyes to fight the tears from falling. ‘Goddess, did you bring my mate to me only for me to keep hurting her like this? Did you not maybe make a mistake giving her to me? I am not good enough for this angel, she is pure and had a heart of gold.’ Nathan said a silent prayer before taking slow steps towards his mate. His feel felt heavy to lift and his heart hurt painfully in his chest.They say that the hardest wounds to heal are those on the inside for they do not get air to heal naturally. Nathan feared what the pain he has been causing his mate must be doing to her inside, she might forgive him and take him back. But does that mean the wounds have healed? He feared not. He stopped close to her and extended his hand then gently.“My love, please say something, whatever you are feeling right now please don’t keep it in, tell me, doesn’t matter how hurtful it m
Months passed and still no sign of Layla. Nico looked like a walking zombie, he missed his mate so much and longed to be with her but he could not find her. He looked everywhere he thought she might be but she was not there, he never found her. he spent these months searching for her with no luck. Nathan as well has been looking for her but with no luck, not even a clue of where she could be, it's like she vanished. Which made him more paranoid thinking that she was planning something again.The good news is that he found Steven and brought him back to the pack. He came back a changed man, stricter than he was and more focused. Nathan liked the new version of him and so did Divan. The three of them have been helping each other in the search for Layla, they had teams made up of members from the rogue pack, rosewood and silver sands. So far, none of them had luck in finding Layla.Nathan and Anita have been working on their relationship. It was not hard doing so as the m
