I knew that I needed to thread very carefully, that I needed to be careful when I spoke. At the rate things were going, I could tell that Samantha was determined to get me to tell her what it was that had forced me to make this decision. But that was where the problem came in - no one had forced me to do this. It was a decision that I had made on my own, and I had simply gotten her father to agree to it. I knew that the right thing to do, would be to tell her that, but something told me that taking the sole blame for this was not going to help me at all. It might’ve been the cowards way out, but my Beta and I would have to share the blame for us - and essentially, the consequences thereof as well. “Samantha. It does not matter what it was that made us come to this decision. The point is that we have decided that this is what is best for you. You might not be able to see our reasoning behind us, and that is fine. But it is not going to make us change our minds.” I had to admit that I

I sat down again, realising that this was not going to be an argument that I would easily be able to win. I had already done what I could, and I had literally gotten nowhere. But even though I was able to acknowledge this factor, I knew that there was absolutely nothing that I could do in terms of making myself feel better. I still felt like I could take each of them on, but I also knew that that would not help my case. I was trying to get them to make a decision in my favour, and maybe I was doing it the wrong way. But regardless of that, the point of the matter remained that I had already done what I had done and said what I had said. The chance that I would be able to redeem myself right now, was practically slim to none, and I was perfectly fine with those odds. After all, it was not like I had intended to redeem myself at all. I wanted them to know what I had meant everything that I had said, and I would mean it even if they were to change their minds. I stared down at the plat

The Omegas cleared the plates off of the dining room table, and I was instantly made aware of the fact that everyone was expecting me to dismiss them. I hadn’t thought about it until now, but I realised that I was not ready for all of us to go our separate ways. There was merely too much that still needed to be discussed, but even so, I also knew that these people were in no position to discuss anything of actual importance with one another. It made me wonder how all of them had managed to stay in the same house for eighteen years to begin with. “I would like to be dismissed. I still have a final assignment that I will need to submit tomorrow, and I do not wish to be up too late working on it.” Samantha’s question was directed at me, and I realised that I had instructed her that she would need to be dismissed by her parents and not by me. I didn’t know whether or not this was a test and she was merely waiting to see whether or not I had said that as a joke. I decided that it would b

As I walked Luke and Julie to the door, I could hear the bath water running, and I knew that Samantha was going to be occupied for quite some time - not that I minded. The Omegas were still going to be here for a while in order to clean up, and by the time that they left, Samantha should have had some time to think about everything that had happened this evening. I did not yet know whether or not I would go and try to speak to her about the matter, but it would only be a matter of time until I was able to make a decision. “It was a pleasure to share your company this evening, Alpha Elijah. I apologise for Samantha’s reaction to your decision. I hope that she will come to her senses soon enough.” The comment came from Luke, and I had to admit that he had some nerve that not even I would have had. There was no guarantee that Samantha wasn’t able to hear us, and to speak so freely was rather disrespectful. I wouldn’t have been surprised if Samantha came running towards us with a machet

I might not have developed my supernatural heating abilities yet, but I was able to hear Elijah walking up the staircase, and I could not help but to brace myself for his inevitable arrival at the bathroom door. I might be wrong, and he might not even be coming here, but I had the feeling that that was not going to be the case this time around. After the evening that we had had, it would have been suspicious if he didn’t come here to try and talk some sense into me. It would have been much easier for me if I didn’t have to speak to him. After all, there were other things for me to worry about right now, things that were more important than teaching people how to be enforcers when I couldn’t even be one. I didn’t think that I was being unreasonable, and I hoped that it would only be a matter of time before Elijah realised that he was the one who was being unreasonable. I hadn’t done anything that would have made me undeserving of being an enforcer. There was a soft knock on the bathr

I could feel the uncomfortable stirring in my loins as I sat there, waiting for Samantha to respond to me. I took it that she hadn’t thought of the situation in the same manner as I had, which was why she had been arguing with me. But, I chose to believe that her silence symbolised that she was acknowledging that I was right. But that wasn’t why I felt like a horny teenager in the midst of my crush. No. The reason why I felt the way that I did, was because the bubbles that had barely been covering her before, were disappearing. And despite my earlier statement, there was a lot of her that I wanted to see. The only thing separating the two of us right now, was my own self-control. I didn’t think that Samantha even considered what was going through my mind right now, and a part of me was thankful for that small mercy. “Aren’t you going to say anything?” I wanted her to start talking to me again, to start explaining what was going through her mind. It was one of the few things that I

Once Elijah closed the door behind him, I sunk back down into the water, feeling my tense body relax. The water was now lukewarm, which made me want to get out, but I knew that there was nothing stopping me from adding more hot water. It would definitely give me a reason to stay in here for longer, because with my luck, if I went out here, then I would need to speak to him again because he would probably be waiting for me. It was something that I dreaded, and before anyone could tell me not to, I started to run more bath water. I waited a moment, listening to hear whether or not I would have to close the tap, but no instruction came from outside - and I sent a silent prayer of thanks up to the moon goddess for that. I felt like I had already handled everything that I needed to handle today. I couldn’t handle much more. But even once the hot water had been poured into the bathtub, even once all traces of cold water had been removed, I still couldn’t get myself to relax as much as I w

I would be lying if I claimed to know what woke me up in the middle of the night, but I suddenly found myself with the insatiable thirst for water. I didn’t have to go far to quench my thirst, but once I was laying in bed, I could not help but to lay awake. I knew, without a doubt, that I wouldn’t be falling asleep anytime soon. I could try as much as I wanted to, and it wasn’t going to get me anywhere. And I knew that it had everything to do with my curiosity in terms of Samantha, my eagerness to know how she was coping with everything that was happening to her. But as much as I wanted to know how she was doing, I also knew that it was none of my business. It was not my role or responsibility to check up on her, although, she is living under my roof. Perhaps that gives me the right to go there? It was something that I wasn’t entirely sure about, and I didn’t want to do something that was out of line in Samantha’s books. Goodness knew that I had already overstepped the boundaries mor
