Elektra’s pov:I woke up in a room I didn't recognize. It was dark outside while there was a little light on in the room. I fumbled for the light switch and turned on the lights. The light made my eyes hurt for a few seconds until they adjusted to it. I looked around me. The room was very big and beautiful. White and cream were dominating. There was a big closet at my right and a small door at my left that probably led to the bathroom. I was lying on a very big double bed that had soft cotton sheets and a warm blanket.As I tried to figure out where I was, memories from hours earlier flooded my head. I was in Alexander's office, I rejected him and fainted! Oh my god what have I done! How could I do such a thing? What was I thinking?This man was always beside me. He helped me in everything and supported me when no one else did.I feel so ashamed of myself. How could I have been so naive? How will I be able to look him in the eye again after this? I have to get out of here right now.-
Alexander's pov: As soon as Elektra told me she felt the bond I ran to my office where Esmeree was waiting for me. I wanted to know if what Elektra felt was permanent or not. I was excited to share the good news when Esmeree stopped me by telling me that she already knew. Although it startled me, it didn't surprise me at all. -"Esmeree what 's going to happen now?" -"And they all lived happily ever after...." she replied mockingly. -"Come on, don't make fun of me. Will this phenomenon remain or there is a risk that Elektra will lose this capability again? I really hope not, it will be devastating for Elektra" -"This can only be answered by the Elders!" Esmeree replied coldly. -"Then I must pay them a visit immediately" I said decisively and abruptly stood up. -"Relax, you have a whole day to do that!" -"I can't wait any longer. I need to know! Now" I said impatiently. -"You can't go by yourself. You must take Elektra with you!" -"Ok. I will send a guard to inform her" -"Ele
Elektra’s pov: After I had breakfast alone in my room, an omega came and informed me that Alexander was already waiting for me at the parking lot. I took my bag and hurried out. Alexander accelerated as soon as I got in. It was obvious that he was very impatient. During the trip we remained quiet without exchanging a single word. I was devastated. My heart was pounding and I felt awful. I couldn’t stand Alexander’s attitude. He was purposely ignoring me the whole time. We reached the path leading to the elder's village, parked the car and continued on foot. During our ascent I felt very uncomfortable. Alexander climbed in complete silence without exchanging a single word. He was mad at me I could tell. “Oh my Goddess how did I manage to make such a mess! Although I knew I deserve his attitude, my heart can’t take it” I thought to myself. We reached the village and headed straight to the elder’s cabin, knocked on his door and after we heard the elder’s voice got in. -“Welcome again
Elektra’s pov: I got out feeling absolutely frustrated. All my dreams came crashing down like paper towers. Everyone and everything was against me. Why is everyone so judgmental? I have every right to reject my mate. Who are they who think they can judge everyone? Alexander came towards me looking very worried. -“Well?” he asked frustrated. -“Unfortunately they didn’t give me any answer” I replied sincerely. -“What? Why?” -“They said that what I did was sacrilege and they don’t owe me any explanation” I explained. -“That’s preposterous!” he exclaimed in annoyance and headed towards the cabin where all the elders were gathered. -“Wait! What are you doing?” I asked him as he walked away without paying any attention to me. -“Let him. He might achieve more than you, he is very respected by the elders," Anaxagoras told me. -“I hope you are right” I said full of hope. Two hours passed and Alexander was still in the cabin. What were they talking about all this time? I waited and w
Elektra's pov: I woke up in the middle of the night with a heavy heart. I really hoped that what happened before was just a bad nightmare, but I quickly realized that my hopes were in vain. Alexander's rejection was true. He didn't want to do anything with me. Everything was lost. Staying here didn't suit me anymore. Although I belonged to Silver Dawn pack by origin I couldn't stay here and watch Alexander treating me like this. I just couldn't stand it anymore. I had to leave. And go where? My wolf asked me inside my head. Return to Black Shadow pack wasn't an option. Not that I wasn't accepted there, but mainly because I wasn't ready to go back yet. That place was filled with so many memories, memories I wanted to erase from my mind or at least make them less hurtful. I gathered my thoughts and things and left the room. It was five in the morning when I passed the borders. The guards wanted to inform Steve the beta about my departure, but I managed to convince them that the leader
Elektra’s pov:One year has already passed and I was happy with my new life. I decided to leave packs and live among people and chose Halifax to be the city I live in from now on. It is a very beautiful city near the sea. I got a job in a big company and managed to make some friends. My life was very different now and I loved how things turned out.Sometimes, especially in the evenings, my mind wandered to my old life and Alexander, but I quickly pushed those thoughts away. I had no intention of returning to my old life.When Roxanne realized that I wasn’t going to return she confessed to me that Alexander didn’t even bother to search for me. Since then I decided to move on with my life and live like a common human.Roxanne’s pov:I was so happy that Elektra was able to turn her life around. Living away from your mate is not an easy task. I know the pain it can cause and I
Elektra’s pov:Our dinner tonight was a total disaster. Roxanne and Andros didn't get along well enough to drive me crazy. I don't know what Roxanne got her. He treated Andros with great hostility forcing him to react accordingly.-"Why did you treat Andros so badly?" I asked Roxanne as I opened the door to my apartment wide, walked in and threw away the keys.-"What? I didn't!" she refused trying to look innocent.-“Don’t treat me like a fool. You don’t like Andros and you managed to show it at every occasion! Why did you do that?”-“I…I didn’t!” she continued refusing my accusations.-“Please, stop denying it! Just tell me the truth for goodness sake!”-“Ok then! If you want to hear it! What happened to your mate? Did you forget him so easily?”-“Alexander belongs to the past! Don’t you see?” I contradicted.-“Alexander is your mate!” she exclaimed in annoyance.-“Alexander is nothing to me! Don’t you see that I moved on and want to leave everything behind?”-"My child, you will nev
Elektra’s pov:Seeing Alexander again was a big shock to me. For over a year I lived my life erasing every memory of him and somehow he comes back with the intention to claim what is rightfully his. After a year and a half of ignoring me, he came back to claim me as if I were a cursed object to him. Who does he think he is?Last night I accepted Andros’ invitation for dinner and decided to stay at his house for the night. I was about to tell him the truth about Alexander's appearance, but the night was so enjoyable that I didn't want to spoil it. So we went home and slept. Andros respected my wish to rest and didn’t insist on love making. He even made me breakfast in the morning! He is so attentive and caring and all this time he never misses an opportunity to show me how much he loves me. He is so perfect that I can already imagine my life beside him.My day was very tiring and demanding. My boss was so eager to close the deal with Alexander's company that when I arrived he took me to
Roxanne’s pov:A month passed with Elektra in the same state as always. The doctors said the hopes faded as time went on. Alexander did not visit her even once disappointing me more than expected. I couldn't believe his cruelty towards his own mate. What got into him? Didn’t he love her anymore? Didn’t he feel anything about her? I just couldn’t believe it. What happened to him? How did he become like this? Such an indifferent person….Electra lay on her bed pale and weak in a coma. I talked to her and brought her flowers every day. She was like a child to me. I couldn't come to terms with the idea that I was going to lose her soon…… The doctors were adamant. According to them, there was little chance of Elektra waking up. She was doomed to sleep for eternity and eventually die.I started sobbing. I couldn’t hold my tears anymore. I was devastated. I didn’t hear David entering the room. When he talked to me, I jumped out of fear.-“Roxanne?” he asked worriedly approaching me. “Are you
Alexander’s pov:I stood on my spot for several minutes feeling completely numb. My head was spinning as I tried hard to regain my composure. I was in a dilemma, trying to take a decision. On the one hand, I had Monica lying unconscious in her bed fighting cancer alone, while on the other hand Elektra was in a coma. But she wasn't alone. Roxanne and David were with her.– “This is not enough reason to leave her. You must go to her. She needs you" said Ares inside my head.-“Monica also needs me and she is completely alone. How can you ask me to leave her alone in a hospital room to fight for her life? I can't leave her now. He helped me when I was desperate and alone"-"You can have someone take care of her. Your first priority is your partner and not your friend" Ares scolded me.-"Stop it Ares. I didn't ask for your advice"-“You just can’t sit here and do nothing while your mate desperately needs you”-“I can’t do anything for her…”-“Of course you can! You have to go there and let
Roxanne’s pov:-"My Goddess. Is she dead?' I said and started sobbing uncontrollably while David went over to her checking for a pulse.-“She’s alive. But her pulse is very weak” David said some seconds later.I got closer to her unable to hold back my tears. I took her in my arms and held her tight while David called 911.-“What happened to you my beautiful daughter? What monster did this to you?” I said enraged.During our waiting for the ambulance I was holding her tightly in my arms while David checked the whole apartment looking for a clue about who have done this.The ambulance came and took her to the metropolitan hospital while we followed behind with a taxi.David called Jax, his Beta and asked him to send some wolves immediately here. He was in rage.Electra was immediately operated on. According to the doctors, she was severely beaten and suffered from internal bleeding.Hearing the news made my heart fall apart. I just couldn’t believe it. Elektra was a very strong woman.
Elektra’s pov:When the elevator opened I saw to my great surprise Andros tightly hugging and passionately kissing a blonde woman. I gave her a quick upside down glance. She was tall with long blonde hair and a fit body. She was gorgeous!-“What the hell?” I commented in frustration.-“What are you doing here? Are you following me?” he asked angrily.-“What? Of course not! I lost my phone and came to search for it”-“Here?” he wondered incredulously.-“That’s not the point Andros. Who is this woman?”-“I am his mate” the blonde woman replied.-“Your what?”-“I thought that you mate was dead along with your four year old child”-“We don’t have a child” the woman intervened again.-“Is this your second chance mate?” I addressed to Andros. I knew that second chance mates were scarce but Andros was lucky enough to find her and didn’t have the opportunity to tell me about it.-“What? No! I am his first and only mate” the blonde protested.-"Well, everything you told me a few minutes ago wa
Cito fit quod dei volant – What the gods want happens soon (Petronius) Alexander’s pov: -“What did you say?” I asked completely amazed. Hearing Elektra saying something like that surprised me deeply, especially now that I had lost every hope to win her back. -“You heard me” she said with a deeper voice than she used to. -“It isn’t you that talking but your wolf” I commented disappointedly. Of course it was her wolf who felt jealousy when she saw me with another female. Even though she rejected me, her wolf hasn’t given up our bond. No wolf can escape the bond. It is more complicated for them. -“No, it’s only me” she strongly denied. -“Please Elektra. Don't treat me like an idiot. I know you don’t have any feelings for me. You've been kind enough to show it to me several times in the past." I said in annoyance. -“Alexander I am sorry. I know I treat you badly but now I’m here to make amends…” -“To make amends? What are you talking about?” I asked in surprise…. I really didn’t ex
Alexander’s pov: Over the next few days, Monica and I attended every party and big social event that happened in town. While I know Monica's purpose was good, I found it extremely boring to attend to all these events. Never the less seeing Monica having a great time kept me going on. The only thing we definitely accomplished was to become the main topic of various newspapers and tabloids. The week was coming to its ending and Elektra was nowhere to be found. I was starting to feel really desperate. Monica's plan obviously didn't work out the way we expected. -“Relax…..At least we had a great time!” Monica exclaimed in enthusiasm. -“Yes, but going to various events doesn’t bring Elektra back” -“Do you love her that much?” -“I….think so……” -“You know what? I really don’t get it. We passed the whole week together while she did absolutely nothing….” -“What do you mean?” -“She didn’t show any sign that she really cares about you……” -“You know what? You’re right! If Elektra doesn’
Monica and I met each other at college. We were both very young and ambitious. Monica is human and even though she knows about our kind, she doesn’t have a problem. She’s always been supportive and understanding. Seeing her again already brightened my spirits. We went to a fancy restaurant to have dinner. We were having a really good time talking about our current lives and trying to catch up with everything. We mostly talked about our jobs and our common past. We were having a great time talking about all the embarrassing moments we shared together when suddenly I felt my wolf stirred happily into my head. It was then that I saw Elektra with this Andros getting inside. She was wearing a very sexy pink cocktail dress and had her hair up. Seeing her smiling standing at this man’s side made my blood boil. They sat four tables across ours. They seemed to having a very good time. Before allowing myself to get angry and ruin our night I decided to concentrate on Monica who all this time wa
