Knight's P.O.VI tried to sit still and focus on the plan but nothing I did was working in keeping that one girl out of my mind.Her beautiful doe eyes, long dark hair, and honey skin shimmered under the moonlight as she started outside the window which gave me the chance to have a glance at her for the first time.Women meant nothing to me. I have always treated them as an object for sexual pleasure including my own mate whom I, fortunately, killed at the right time before she could expose my plans to the world and ruin my years of hard work.But this one girl... She got me captivated.When she looked outside the window probably feeling my eyes on her, the way those juicy pink lips of hers parted in surprise had got me lost. If I hadn't gone there for the attack, I would drag her down from the little room that she seemed to make her safe place and fucked her till the sun went up.And once she was standing in front of me in her wolf form, she looked like a goddess who had landed on th
AriaAll the pack members gathered around the hall of the pack house. Fear and uncertainty had shrouded everyone's minds and what else I could have expected? We had lost a lot of members due to the sudden attack of those blood-thirsty rouges.Our pack was damaged and now we had a lot of things to fix. We were going through a great loss and maybe we could never fulfill it.How are we ever going to fulfill the loss of those who lost their family members?How could I bring back the child of the mourning mother? The mates of the crying woman who would never be able to get over this nightmare? The omegas who became the target of the brutality of those monsters because they were too weak and frightened to fight back? No. It wasn't possible to bring them back but something was possible. But one thing was...Revenge.Killing each of them one by one and gifting them the painful death they deserved was possible."Is it hurting sweetheart?" Mom asked in concern as she looked at my bandaged woun
AriaAs everyone in the room left after what seemed like an eternity, I became hyperaware of the tension in the atmosphere.Obviously, it was not going to end well because Hunter once again decided to blow everything up. Creating conflicts resided in his bloody nature.And once there was no one else in the room except for the six of us, Dad snapped."First you acted like a douchebag and dared to announce another girl as your Luna and now you suddenly want Aria back? Something miraculously changed your mind and you expect that she's going to accept you?!"My tormentor seemed to have foreseen my dad's outburst and no signs of surprise or emotion showed on his face. He had always been a bit extra expert in keeping himself void of any feelings...'But he said he loves you,' Sierra spoke up, her voice was lower than a whisper and filled with hesitation.'Are you fucking kidding me right now? Don't you know what he put us through? I can't just forget everything he did and all his insults j
AriaIt turned out it was even harder to keep my thoughts together when I found out that I and Hunter were going to need to stay in the same room.I would have rejected staying in the same room the moment I got to know about it if it did not have any possibilities of raising suspicion amongst others and we couldn't just do that.So...I was stuck.I felt my restlessness increasing little by little and constantly leaving me incapable of thinking straight. I feared closeness with Hunter, it unnerved me more than anything in this world did.He was the reason behind my weakness. No matter how much I tried to erase him from my thoughts, he was always there. Imprinted in my head in a way that I might never be able to wipe off.The sound of the door getting opened was what made me snap out of my thoughts.My eyes moved to spot Hunter walking inside the room.I found myself uncomfortably shifting on the bed, seemingly aware of my nervousness that began to surface just by the sight of him and I
AriaAfter we had returned to our room, I decided to take a shower whilst Hunter went to check on some paperwork.As I dried myself and reached for the clothing rack I finally became aware that I had forgotten to bring clothes from the closet."Damn it!" I muttered under my breath and wrapped the short towel around me; It barely reached my thighs.As far as I could assume, Hunter was not going to come back so early so without giving it much thought I walked outside the bathroom.But soon as I walked out of the bathroom and chose to move towards the closet whilst fixing the towel around myself but I had taken only a few steps when my head hit something hard.My feet slipped causing me to lose my balance and a gasp tore from my mouth.I closed my eyes bracing myself for the impact but a pair of hands slipped around my waist stopping my body from landing on the floor.My eyelids flew open as his scent wafted into my nostrils and my gaze locked with his ones.My breathing got caught in my
AriaI woke up as light rays of sunlight fell on my face.I slowly opened my eyes and the first thing I saw was Hunter's face, he was facing me. He seemed to be in a deep doze. His skin was glowing and his dark hair shone like silk as the sunlight caressed them ever so slightly. As my gaze traveled down, I took time to notice his muscles and protruding veins that were visible on his arm.Wait! His hand was...resting on my waist.My lips parted in realization and I began pondering over what to do.I did not know why I did not want to wake him up from his slumber; Maybe because he looked so peaceful in sleep or maybe I was liking this view a little too much than I should have.A few of his hair strands fell over his forehead as he moved a bit in his sleep, resting his hand now lower--On my hip.My hand moved on its own to brush the hair strands from over his forehead and whilst doing so I realized how soft his hair was.He was indeed perfect. Made for.....Get a hold of yourself Aria!
Aria The first thing that caught my attention once I and Hunter arrived at the breakfast table was new the faces of some people.Four male.The first male had dark skin and light brown hair, his face had a scar on the side of his face. My eyes moved to spot the next male, he had completely pale skin and blonde hair, and the man next to has familiar features like him.And then I finally looked at the grey-eyed man who sat at the corner and the only one in the room whose gaze was fixated on me. His stare was strange and awkward as if there was something that was going on in his mind and I did not know it felt like it was related to me.He had ice blonde hair that fall over his face ever so slightly, and both of his hands were covered in hundreds of tattoos; Even his fingers were covered in them.The aura he radiated was of an Alpha, and it was strong to stand out amongst everyone.I just couldn't explain the feeling nor I could decipher the most complex gaze I had ever faced to face.T
AriaFor the past two days, Hunter and I had been busy with pack work, taking care of everything around the pack, and making sure that things are under control.There was no sign of any upcoming attacks and everything around seemed in peace and silence, but none knew if it was the silence before the storm and destruction.Yesterday I came to know that another pack was attacked and taken over by the rouges. The pack was not a weak one, it was strong and they too had firm defense yet the rouges managed to win and this was very alarming for every pack that was safe till now including us.I just hoped we'd be able to save our pack. We couldn't lose it at any cost.Currently, I was inside my house to gather some dresses and a couple of shoes of mine that I missed shifting to the new room with Hunter when I had shifted all my belongings.I grabbed my boots and jackets, along with the crop tops, and finally exited the house and locked the door.As I hung the bag over my shoulder, out of blue
Aria"As far as I knew, wedding nights were supposed to be super romantic," I fought my giggle when he aggressively opened my wedding dress letting it fall on the floor before he hastily moved on to unclipping my bra."So what does this seem to you? Unromantic?" He rose one of his eyebrows as he ripped open my panties and the sound broke through the not-so-existing silence in the room."No, but you are acting like a hungry animal," A chuckle finally left my mouth.Suddenly with one swift yank, Hunter pulled me towards him so that my naked chest come colliding against his one. Goosebumps raked my body and heat entrenched into my skin."You are right because I am starving," His growl alone made the wetness gather between my thighs.He picked me up by my thighs and hooked my legs around his hips, slipping my arms around his neck to keep myself steady."And now that my prey is right in front of me, I am not going to hold back anything," He put me down on the bed, hovering over me and he w
AriaI did not know where I was. All I could see was darkness and darkness; Nothing other than that.Only one question that rose in my mind was—Was I alive or dead?However, my questions went answered and unanswered at the same time when I felt someone's presence beside me. It could be just a hallucination or it could simply mean nothing.But then I felt someone's touch that sent bolts of electricity to my whole body. Because of the chaos of thoughts, at first, I could not recognize the feeling but then once I felt the scintillas spreading throughout my body, I figured out that these were the sparks of the mate bond.The weight on the eyelids that kept me unable to open my eyes slowly vanished, and I fought the weakness to open them. It took me a few seconds before I finally managed to open them.Glaring sun rays hit my eyes, forcing me to rapidly close them once again. A small groan left my mouth automatically and I shifted a bit to avoid the light, lifting my aching arm to cover my
Aria"Sorry, beloved," Knight whispered before he pulled the knife out and thrust it into my stomach once again, "Revenge is more important to me than possession, but don't worry..." he once again pulled out the sharp weapon and insert it into the same place with double force, "Once I kill your mate, I'll save you because I have plenty of things I haven't done with you yet." He finally withdrew the knife and let go of me; The imbalance left me stumbling a few steps backward.My hands moved to press onto the wound. The blood endlessly gushed out it, covering my hand and dripping down to the floor, the pain was unlike anything. Everything in front of my eyes went blank for a second and I found myself falling to the ground.But my body did not end up colliding against the floor— Before I could fall to the ground, Hunter caught me in his arms."Aria..." He began hesitating, his eyes wide in horror and hands vigorously shaking as he watched the blood gush out of the deep wound continuous
Aria"Hunter..." His name fell off my lips before I even knew it."I see...so your mate's here." He spoke, lowly, "Too bad he has invited his own death.""Or maybe, it's you who's going to die."He laughed, looking at me in disbelief, "You really think so? Guess, you can comfort yourself by saying that but for now, my beta and gamma are enough to take care of your mate since after defeating all the rouges I put to guard, it's impossible for him to defeat them." "You are really a victim of the disease that destroys people, and you know what it is? It's your fucking overconfidence." I spat."But as far as I can see it's you and your mate who are going through the demolition," He said raising one of his eyebrows, "Anyways, let's see what's your mate doing downstairs...has he died yet or not, perhaps—" A loud growl of Hunter buzzed throughout the mansion once again causing Knight to stop in the midway of his sentence."Or maybe, he just killed your dear companions." It was my turn to ra
HunterKnight was smart enough to choose to build his mansion in the middle of the forest, but not enough to choose a forest that did not have only a slight distance of a few hundred miles like this one had.Once I entered the forest, using the mate bond to track where Aria exactly was. I became aware of the fact that Knight was not that confident about how he sounded on the phone because on every corner he kept rouges as the guards to prevent me from reaching his mansion.However, I did not let his arrangements succeed because I tore down every one of the routes into pieces just like I had told him. I knew my Aria was with him, captured by that son of a bitch and I needed to get her out at any cost. I wanted to rescue her as fast as possible before he could hurt her. I did not want to lose her.And I was like a ravenous animal who had no mercy left inside of him. I had forgotten everything, the only thing that was in my mind was that I needed to save my mate before that monster could
AriaWhen Knight hung up on his call with Hunter, at first I did not have any idea what was I going to do and what was going to be Hunter's decision when Knight intentionally put him in the middle of such a dilemma. Knight has no intentions to kill, he has told me by himself even though his intentions were far worse than killing me.Knight's agendas were so vicious and tricky. It was impossible to learn what was going to be his next move going to be.And that was why I did not want Hunter to reach here. Yes, I did not care or give a damn about what was going to be my state but I did not want my mate to get hurt or injured. Only because of that, I tried to send Hunter a signal to stop him from trying to reach where I was, taking Sierra's help to convey the message.I still had no idea if I had succeeded in doing that because Hunter's mark on me was still fresh and raw. But at the end of my attempts, I began badly regretting my decision.I did not know how that signal went, I did not ha
Hunter"Where is Aria? Where have you taken her? You fucking bastard!""Ugh! Why are you shouting," He groaned, "What is wrong with you and your mate, huh? You both keep shouting like mad dogs.""Shut up, motherfucker. What do you think of yourself? Trust me, the moment I see you, I am going to kill you." I growled."Sorry my friend, I can't trust you on that." His vicious laughter sounded through the phone, "There are two reasons, first there are close to zero chances that you'll reach your mate, second within only fifteen minutes the rouges who are all around your pack are going finalize the attack and before you holler up with your overconfidence, let me tell you they are not at all the ordinary rouges you have ever come across. They are filled with hunger and vengeance, and the blood and flesh of your and Deadcrest packs' members are going to quench their thirst."I became hyperaware of the entire situation.The dismay for the pack's safety stirred awake within me along with the c
AriaSince the past hour, I had not been able to move an inch from where Knight tied me. These ropes were so tight that every time I moved my hands my skin would end up getting sliced, the more I strained against it the more it'd hurt me.Tension, fear, anxiety— I felt all sorts of emotions attack me from every side.I had to do something to save my pack but here I was, under this brute's captive. And if I can't get out then he'd destroy my pack, he'd succeed in his mission. I needed to warn the members about Knight's plan.I struggled against the restraints, ignoring all the pain it was causing me. The gag muffled my groans and screams, almost suffocating me.And then suddenly the door opened and entered none other than the demon himself—Knight.Amusement shined in his atrocious grey eyes, "I see, you haven't given up yet."He stalked closer, there was a plate of food in his hand and he rested it on the side table."Although I'd love to have you tied and gagged this is not the way I'
Hunter"Hunter, calm down," Mom said, "Breaking things like this is not going to solve the problem.""I don't have any idea where the hell she is, she is not in the pack, mom. Do you fucking understand what that means? Do you even understand the things that can happen to her?" I shouted, "There are enemies everywhere, they can seriously hurt her, and I might never be able to get her back.""We will get her back, son. Please calm down." Dad spoke."No, I can't calm down. I can't until I find her," I threw away the chair against the wall, till now the entire office was a mess; Everything was destructed to the point of no return but I could care less about that, all that was in my mind was my Aria.It was all my fault.I should have told her about everything. How much pain she must have gone through!The look on her face from last night was still haunting me. She looked so...broken; It was all because of me.I knew she was in danger, it was so obvious. She has gone through the toughest
