Carena:I pressed my ear to the wall, listening to their conversation with full attention. My heart was pounding hard in my chest. The conversation was about me so I could get more information directly from them and also find out what Sawyer thinks about me.“Calm down. It's not like it will be your first time killing your mate. You killed Ashley,” the man used a rather taunting tone with a chuckle coming out of his mouth.“They are different so you better not say Carena’s name again. I'm not going to kill her,” my heart revived a little, at least he wouldn't kill me. But what about the others?“Fine. You don’t want to kill her now because you're enjoying sex with her. That position where she was on all fours, ugh! Must have felt so good to be inside her. She’s a fucking goddess—” Once again, the man made me realize that Sawyer had even shared our recent encounter with him. I was hurt. Beyond hurt and disgusted.I closed my eyes and hugged myself, feeling utterly disgusted. It was as
Carena: “Why are you looking at me like this?” he asked innocently, making me think about all the times the guest talked about seeing our initiate sessions. It was Sawyer, of course he was seeing everything.“Sawyer! What are you saying?” My eyes were now filled with tears as I kept trying to get away from him. This changed everything for sure. I was lost, not understanding a single thing.“I didn’t want you to come here. Why did you?” he asked, his eyes starting to change color.“You’re fucking insane! He—doesn’t exist. You have been talking to yourself this whole time, Sawyer!” I shook my head, gulping and trying to stay awake as my head started spinning. My vision kept getting blurred and I had to rub my eyes to make sure I didn't lose sight of him. I couldn't help but blame myself for appearing before him and exposing myself.“Carena! Let’s go upstairs and have a talk,” he insisted, but the minute his hand touched my arm, I shrieked and slapped it away. I was beyond afraid of him
Sawyer:“You know, I used to think you would choose Carena over me,” Ashley giggled, dancing with her shoulders. I nodded my head, sighing while looking out the window. She was so happy to go on this honeymoon. Well, what can I do?This was supposed to happen.“But then I should have known that a fated mate is more precious than anything,” she continued to babble on without having any idea what a special honeymoon I have planned for her. But I guess a surprise would be good for her.And meanwhile, I began to dream about Carena. One day, she and I will be alone together. There will be no Ashley or anyone else to bother us.“Ahh!” I sighed and rubbed my face in my hands.I knew my dad would be safely kept in the basement, but I have to hide him sometimes. He cannot be seen.That asshole should not be seen.But then, who was I? I was still doing what he started. My head turned to Ashley, and a smirk played on my lips. I was glad she didn’t see it. She must not know why I brought her here
Carena:I had been gone for I don’t even know how long. But I could tell I was in the hospital because I would wake up for a few minutes and then pass out again. I lost track of the days too. But I guess I am finally up now.But whenever I closed my eyes, the scene from that night would pop up before my memory. Then, I remembered bits and pieces of what had happened before that. But mostly, I stayed asleep until today.I was feeling a weird burst of energy. Like I no longer wanted to stay sleeping.“She’s waking up,” I heard a woman’s unfamiliar voice announce. I noticed I was hooked up to a bunch of machines. My body was in pain too, but I could look at my hands and tell I had healed pretty well. Just the cannula in the back of my hand was irritating me.A bald man walked in wearing a stethoscope and started checking my body. In the meantime, Sawyer rushed in and shocked me. The minute my eyes landed on him, they got bigger, and he stopped. Soon, he faded away with the people coming
Carena: I had been crying for hours. Thankfully, nobody tested my patience, and Lady Jane had kicked her son out to let me rest. But I could no longer rest. My head was hurting so much, and I kept remembering what the other doctor from the Red Raven pack had told me.“I will never get pregnant again,” I muttered, ready to have another meltdown after a few hours.“Don’t say it like that,” Yamin reached for me and held my hand. Now it was just the two of us.“The doctors told me I shouldn’t be losing babies--” I didn’t even want to call it an abortion. It was a disaster that would now ruin my life for sure.“I had an abortion before, Yamin, and the fact that I was told I would never get pregnant. I still got pregnant, but now I lost my baby again. Can you imagine the damage that has been caused to me?” I was crying, and she was watching me with tears in her eyes.“Don’t say it. My mother has lost so many babies. We are werewolves, we heal again. Besides, just like you said, you were to
Carena: “I will bring you fruits in two hours,” Janine had been doing so much to take care of me. Not only her, but Payton and Lady Jane were all over me too.“I’m really full though,” I replied, but they were feeding me until I was so full that I couldn’t even move. It had only been three days, and I wanted to sit and go through the evidence again. My phone had been losing charge because I wasn’t charging it much. I was mostly resting.“Lady Jane ordered--” The minute Janine said her name, she walked in.“You can go. I will speak to her,” Lady Jane said, and Janine walked out, leaving the two of us behind.“Hi,” I sat up in the bed, keeping my phone under my pillow. Ever since I woke up, I’ve been worried about losing my phone. It had all the evidence against Sawyer; I wouldn’t want to lose it for anything.“I have been meaning to talk with you for a while,” she started, using a general tone. But her body language told me she was worried about something.“What is it?” Giving her a s
Carena:“What?” I already knew it, but to hear him say it to my face without any concern or fear of losing me was like a nail in the coffin.“You heard me. You heard me now and that night too. So why are you asking me all these questions now?” The coldness in his voice upset me deeply. One would think someone would at least be worried about how their mate would perceive them. But not him.He was too cocky to admit he was wrong.“Fine. Then I think you already know what I will do,” I said, and an expression formed on his face.I tried to get out of bed when he grabbed my hand to stop me.“Let me go,” I raised my voice, but he dropped me onto the bed, getting on top of me. He started to pin my hands to the side while I struggled to get him off me.“You are not leaving me,” he finally trapped me and brought his face down, demanding.“Huh! Why do you care? You don’t. You are so cold--you think what you’re doing is right? And you think I will not leave you?” I was on the verge of crying wh
Carena: I held Sawyer by the hand and led him to the bed myself. I know I had promised I wouldn't sleep with him, but my thoughts have changed now.Previously, I thought he was this cold-hearted beast who enjoyed watching people endure pain and that he was killing innocent people for the sake of mortality. But the reality turned out to be far darker than I had imagined.“Hush! I am with you,” I said to him, caressing his cheek and lying on top of him.He seemed like such a lost puppy lying under me. I had my arms folded over his chest, my chin resting on the back of my hands as I watched him stare at the ceiling.“Why didn't you come to me all these days?” I wondered why he didn’t stubbornly show up like he usually does.“I knew you were getting angry seeing me. I knew you wouldn't want to see my face since it was fear of me that made you run upstairs like that. So I was avoiding annoying you and hurting you with my presence. In fact, I even thought about--,” he suddenly stopped, but
