Elena povIt has taken me several hours to get everything done and right now I only need a diversion and I'm out of here. I know I can't just walk out of the door and leave and I have to know where I am in the city!I have tried to figure it out these days by looking around through the windows but haven't got any clues.An idea pops up in my head and I get down to the cellar again and make sure the bag is ready, taking on his hoodie I can't help but smell it. How angry he has made me I feel calm when I take a big inhale of it.Looking at the bag everything is ready and I place the box in front of the window. It will be perfect to climb up to the window if I need.Turning around and heading up the stairs I know it's almost time for the shift of guards and it's my best chance to get out and look around the area.Closing the door after me I walk over to the sink and pick up my two bags of trash, I will have it as an excuse when they shift.Walking over to the door I wait behind the curta
Aziel povCatching her when she faints and starts to fall to the ground I pick her up in my arms I stand there and look at her face. To shocked to come to my senses when my father walks up beside me."I thought every one of them was dead!" he says and I'm just as shocked as him. There have been many years since the last one died, but here we are and by the sight of it one has survived. How is it possible?"How could it be possible? The last one died several years ago!" I say and look at him."I don't know! if it's true you know what this means!" he says and I look down at her angelic face. We have a lot to talk about when the time comes and things just got more serious!" yes, I do!" I say and haul her further up my arms and hold her face close so I can take a large Inhale on her neck. Her scent almost has me lose my mind."Tobias get Grayson here!" I order out when I see Tobias' eyes glance over before I turn my head and look at the others."No one can tell what we saw today!" I say
Aziel pov The plane goes in for the landing and through the whole flight I didn't get the nagging feeling off me. I have to call Grayson when we are off the plane! "Should I call the council and let them know we are coming?" Tobias says when we are about to get off the plane. "No! I want it to be a surprise for them" I say and take out my phone to call Grayson. He answers at the first call. "I want more guards around the house!" I tell him before he even had time to answer. "There are already six guards outside the house! Do you want more?" he says when we have reached the waiting car by the plane. "yes, I want two more stationed outside all the time until I'm back!" I give him the order when Tobias opens the door and I head inside the car. "I'll get right on it!" he says and I hear some sounds in the background. "where are you?" I say when Tobias comes inside the car and it starts to move. He turns his head to look at me. " I'm at some trouble at the south borders! It was urg
Aziel povHe doesn't say anything for a long moment before he sits back in his seat and keeps his eyes locked on me."you have found a child with golden eyes?" he says and doesn't avert his gaze. I don't say anything in response!I'm not confirming it or denying it.It takes a moment before he understands I'm not going to say anything more!"if you have found anyone with golden eyes you have to bring the person here and keep it safe! Zarya's family are the only one who can have golden eyes but it hasn't been anyone in centuries!" he says and lean forward before he continues."Sadie's great grandmother's father had the golden eyes and everyone after them has only had a golden marking on their furr when they shift and a birthmark somewhere on their body in golden color. The person will be in great danger if anyone sees the golden eyes and knows what it means. Most of the packs want to get their hands on these lands and I don't think I need to explain it more for you!" he says and I unde
Aziel povWe manage to get a hold of Grayson later in the evening and he was out by the northern borders when we called, the borders have met a lot of trouble since I closed them and my men have to work a double shift to make sure no one gets through that hasn't been cleared.There is a knock on the door when Tobias comes walking inside."I'm ready to go when you are!" he says and I place my clothes in my bag before closing it."I'm ready! Is the car ready up front?" I ask him and put on my shoes before taking my bag and starting to head over to the door."yes, the driver is waiting outside. I'm getting my bag!" he says and walks back into his room when I open the door and step outside to the hallway. He comes walking out of his room and we head down to the lobby.Looking at my watch there are twenty minutes before we have to be there and it's just enough time.Tobias heads over with our keys while I walk to the front door and push the doors open. The driver is waiting outside with th
Aziel povLooking at him my anger rises in my body. How can she be gone?"how the fuck can she be gone?" I bark to him in a mind link. If anyone has touched a hair on her head they will face my wrath and no one will be spared!"Sofia doesn't know! She is at the house right now and there isn't any trace of her. Your father is on his way and I have ordered Grayson over to the house! If there is any trace after her he will find it!" Tobias mind links. It does nothing to my anger."I want them all at my house when we arrive! Everyone will get punished for not protecting her!" I bark at him when the car stops by the airplane. Getting out of the car I don't wait for Tobias. He will grab the bags while I talk to the pilot and get him ready to take off right away!Coming inside the airplane the pilot is already waiting for us ready to get up in the air. Tobias comes walking inside with the bags when I take a seat and he sits down on the seat in front of me. Turning my head and looking outside
Aziel povReaching the top of the stairs I get up and out of the cleaning room and over to the kitchen.Hearing the others walk up after me I'm about to walk out of the kitchen when Tobias' words have me stop in my tracks."she threw away all her cupcakes! What a waste" he says and I turn my head to look at him. He is standing over the trashcan and walking over to him I stop to look down at it.He is right! Inside are all her cupcakes with frosting on them in different colors. I sigh at the sight of them"you have some sucking up to do! " he states when I turn around to walk out of the room."let's start by finding her first!" I say when I walk out of the kitchen and head down the hallway until I reach the front door. They follow right behind me when Grayson comes bursting inside the door. He halts in his tracks when his eyes land on me."I found a trace! Need to see the surveillance film!" he says and starts to walk over to my office. He doesn't wait for my response before he gets to
Aziel povHearing them walk after me I get over to the front door and head out. Ready to shift and run over to the office my father places his hand on my shoulder."We take the car and you have to put on some proper clothes before going to the office!" he says and starts to head over to the car."your bag with clothes is still in the car Aziel! Let's go" Tobias says and I follow behind them over to the limousine.Getting inside Tobias hands me my bag when the car starts to move. Opening the bag I take out my clothes and put them on in a rush. I know the carried to my office won't take long."what do you think you are going to find? I have looked through them already!" Tobias says. Looking at him where he sits and flips his phone in his hand."We will see when we get there! I just have this feeling!" I say when we reach the office and the car come to a stop outside the entrance doors. Opening the door I get out and start to head to the doors. Opening them I have no time to wait for the
Elena pov Looking at our daughter in Aziel's arms I smile at the sight of her tiny body in his arms. She was just born and the nurse have cleaned her up and put her in some pink clothes I have no idea where they came from. "She is beautiful!" Aziel says and walks over to where I sit on the bed when he places her down in my arms. "Where do the pink clothes come from?" I ask him while looking at our sleeping daughter in my arms. "I bought them!" he says and I turn my head to look at him. Surprised he bought them before she was born. "You thought it was a girl as well?" I ask him in surprise when he gives me a big smile. "Or I bought two sets of everything!" he says and gives me a wink when I shake my head at him. "Don't tell me you did it!" I say and look at him, he doesn't have to say anything for me to already know that's exactly what he did! "Though it didn't matter since you want a big family we might get use for them anyway and if not I'm sure one of the others will get a b
Elena povRubbing my growing belly through the dress I have on I feel a kick in my ribs and have to bend forward when his hand comes to my back."How is it?" Aziel asks me and I place my hand on the desk and rise."Just a kick in my ribs!" I say and turn to look at him when he grabs me and lifts me up before he places me down on his desk. He takes a seat in his office chair and pulls it closer when he places his head against my stomach and his hand is on the other side."Now you have to be good and don't give your mother a hard time through the ceremony!" he says to my belly and I place my hand on his head."I don't think she cares whatever you tell her and once she is out we will have our hands full!" I say and smile at the thought when he lifts his head to look at me."Are you sure it's a girl?" he says and I only smile at him. We wanted it to be a surprise when the baby is born and the doctor where forbidden to say anything. I have known it for a long time it's a girl even if I hav
Elena povThere is no doubt in my mind he took out some aggression in the bed last night, I was prepared for him to come back and be angry at me but instead he ravished my body for hours until I was completely spent. I'm not complaining at all, he only turns me on more by being dominant and rough.Feeling a hand on my belly before his lips kiss it. Tingles play on my skin under his touch and I never want to leave the bed again."Good morning love!" he says when I open my eyes and turn my head to look at him. He is looking down at me from the side where he is laying and looking at me."Good morning!" I say and yawn, I'm tired from the lack of sleep, and most of all I want to roll over to the side and go back to sleep."How do you feel?" he says and I'm perfectly fine besides hungry. My stomach starts to rumble and speak for itself when Aziel chuckles at the sound it makes."We better get you some food!" he says and places his hand on my cheek before he leans down and pecks my lips."I
Elena povStanding in my place for a moment when I don't hear anything I start to slowly walk past the big table in the room and head for the doorway. Turning my head and looking down the hallway I hear a pair of footsteps and turn my head the other way when my eyes land on his.He stands in the hallway only dressed in a low hanging towel around his waist and looks at me for a long moment. My heart starts to beat faster at the sight of him when he starts to take long strides down the hallway to where I stand. He looks newly showered and his hair is still wet.His eyes are pitch black and the closer he gets I feel his dominant aura surrounding him. He doesn't take his eyes away from me and once he reaches over to where I stand with my back against the doorway he grabs my butt and halls me up in a swift motion.Wrapping my legs around him to steady myself he presses me back against the doorframe before he grips the back of my head and forces my head up. I don't get any chance to speak w
Elena povHe doesn't say anything for a long moment before he takes his hand away from my belly and pulls me closer to him. His lips come crashing against mine in a hard demanding kiss, I have to take a deep breath when he finally lets me go."I figured it out and that's why I came back! You should have told me instead of keeping it a secret, I wouldn't have left you! Why didn't you?" he says and doesn't let go of his hold on my head when he looks intensely at me.His other hand is placed on my waist in a firm grip and I know he won't release me until I give him an honest answer."I didn't want to tell you when we had an argument. I wanted you to be happy about it!" I say and look right into his eyes when he takes a long look at me before he answers."Why wouldn't I be happy about it? It's our child!" he says and I don't know what to answer him, my reasons feel stupid right now."I'm sorry!" I say when he wraps me up in his arms and holds me tight to him."Don't you ever keep a secret
Elena povWith all this anger in my body, I'm about to burst any second and I have to focus on trying to calm down.Turning my head to look at him his face is only inches away from mine."I won't give you that kind of satisfaction!" I spit at him when he starts to laugh and holds his grip tighter. His claws are almost cutting into my skin and I fear what will happen to me if he breaks it!It's my mother's venom that has changed him but if it gets into my body, will we survive?"Too bad you're not as strong as your mother! I will have a good time breaking your spirit and killing that bastard of yours!" he spits and that's the last push for me. He will not hurt my child!Taking a deep breath I let my wolf slightly forward and my claws slip out of my fingers, a golden shimmer coats my vision for a short second when I see him get a victorious smile on his face. Like he has won!Gathering all strength I got he grabs my hand when I try to scratch him down his face, but that was just a diver
Elena povI see the man I thought was my cousin look at me with a smirk on his lips when he pulls Aziels cousin to his side. It takes a moment before her eyes meet mine and I see guilt in her face.On her neck lies a new mark and I feel a bit bad for her to be mated to him, and at the same time her betrayal is fresh in my memory and we wouldn't have been in such trouble if it weren't for her.She averts her eyes and doesn't say anything when she looks to the side and I see a large new cut on her cheek and down her neck that has started to heel. Can only imagine who has given it to her since I know very well what he is like."Feel good about yourself right now with your mate by your side! once I get free you will not breathe much longer!" Sam spits at her when I see his cousin take a step back with her head hanging in defeat. She doesn't speak and I'm sure she has been beaten to silence by him."Let my friend go! She has nothing to do with this!" I say and hope they will release Sam wh
Elena povHis grip on my throat gets harder when I feel his face close to my ear. I try to mind link both Sam and Sofia but can't reach anyone of them and I instantly fear for their safety!"So you figured it out at last!" he says and starts to laugh a wicked laugh that sends a chill down my spine."Yes!" I say and wait for him to stop laughing. His scent is clear to me and for once I know he is a wolf, nothing I ever knew or saw any trace of when I lived under his roof. He never shifted near me and I had no idea how a wolf smelled!"But what I haven't figured out yet is your connection with the doctor!" I say and hope he will reveal the truth to me."Oh! You mean my sister!" he says next to my ear while holding his grip tighter around my neck. That's the next puzzle piece I needed."You know when she told me your mother was pregnant we started to plan the whole thing. But we didn't expect your mother to figure it out and hide you before we could get our hands on you! Well as you know
Elena povTurning around without a word I head right for my chambers, I hear them walk behind me. No one says a word until we have reached inside my chambers and closed the door."Now spill!" Sam says once we are inside and I'm not surprised she doesn't waste a second to know what's going on.I walk right over to the couch without answering and start to take out my mother's journals when they both walk over and take a seat on the couch."Aziel talked to me this night and agreed to start a family under one condition!" I say and open the first notebook and place it in front of me."What's the condition?" Sofia asks and I turn to look at her."If I get pregnant I will have to be by his side every second of the day and he will have more guards around me! Even have Sam following me inside the bathroom!" I say when Sam bursts out."Hell no! I'm not following you inside the bathroom, I'm not interested in seeing you do your business" She shakes her head and has her hands up in surrender. I w
