RUTH'S POV"Hey, new girl!" I heard a familiar voice behind my back that morning. I was going to the library during lunch break. All the students were gathered in the cafeteria and the library was the only place which seems to get quieter at that time. That's why I prefer to go there during lunch break after having my meals and read for a moment the rest of the time. It doesn’t mean that I'm studios, I just need some alone time to spend with some books I like. I turned back and saw Thomas was coming towards me with a smirk on his face. I looked around. There was no one near my sight at the moment and I kind of felt fearful to see him coming at me. Yesterday, we all went together to have our lession with Mr. Alexander. He seemed to be not happy to see him there at all - after all, they seemed to quite know each other well and I think it was not something so good about their interaction with one other. Mr. Alexander seemed to be relived for some unknown reason to see me with Elizabet
I cowered in fright and terror under the blanket as I was feeling that something was roaming around. I could sense it, I could smell it and feel it's presence near my bedside. I was apart from just few inches from the intruder,the white veils surrounding my bed was the only thing that separated us from each other. I placed my hands over my mouth to stop me from breathing heavily. Suddenly I heard the sounds on the veils, someone was removing them around me as I could strongly smell something wild and beastly! I was trembling deeply under my cover. As soon as I heard the noise,I grabbed all my strength to sit up and get out of the room as fast as I could. I threw away the blanket over me to the intruder and jumped out of the bed. As I was running towards the unlocked door, I looked back for a while to see what was it all about. My heart froze with fear,as I saw a huge beast roaming around the room with an evil gesture. It was huge! A huge wolf which was standing few metres away fro
Alexander's POV" You vile loathsome creature! "I threw the book out of my hand as I was walking along the library room in my castle. I bent over the desk to control my anger. So it was his plan to remain by her side like this? I clenched my fist. " Alexandr? " I heard a subtle knock on the door and looked up. " Granny!" I said with surprise. " Why are you suddenly up at this hour? It's not your regular reading time. "" Well,it's also not yours at 3 am in the morning! "She walked in and stood infront of me silently. " Alex!" Her calm voice woke me up from the vision that I was having. " Yes, granny? " I looked at her. " Do you know, why your father and all faced too much hardship after the prophecy was made?" She said softly like she could see the inner side of myself." What are you saying?" I said in confusion. " Because everyone just followed blindly about the prophecy! They didn’t explore the matter,they didn’t look into the situation, the pros and cons, they all just
Ruth's POVI became shocked and confused as I was staring at him for a while without even blinking. What was that? The smell of his body was so similar to the one who I trust the most in the whole universe, he was the one I could trust without even knowing his name or identity. His existence is enough for me to feel calm and serene in my heart and mind . " Are you alright?" I woke up from my thoughts as Mr. Alexander talked to me ." Miss Ruth, are you alright ?" He asked me again .I quickly moved out of his lap and stood a little further away from him .I was feeling embarrassed as he was looking at me directly at my eyes - eyes full of caution and curiosity. " I'm fine ,Mr. Alexander." I quickly added ." Well,Miss Ruth, I kindly apologise for today as I'm not feeling so well ... " I looked at him as he was saying . Mr. Alexander was seem to be exhausted and tired . The dirk circles around his eyes showed how much overload he had been taking these days . He sat down after a whil
Elizabeth's POVI hate her ! I hate her with all my heart! The moment she stepped foot on Sunnydale, I felt in my gut that everything is gonna be ruined by her ! F**k the stupid prophecy and everything! I don't have anything to do with it and I hate it the most in my life cause my father died that night - the night at the castle along with others because of the prophecy. Both of our clans tried to get the girl in their possessions but the war took their lives that very night ! Though I obviously don't have any recollection over it as I was merely a few months old . But after that night, my mom's destination changed pathetically because she was a mere human girl and thereby, I am a half blood. My mom and dad met a few months before they got married and my mom was soon conceived with me. First of all,my mom had no idea about my dad that he was not a normal human being like everyone else. My mom worked at a bar and she saw my dad a few times before she got interested in him. My dad
Elizabeth's POVThe moment she stepped her foot on Sunnydale, I had that instinct inside of me that the war is finally happening between the clans . It was long calculated though but I never thought that Alexander was so stupid enough to bring the girl to his territory inside Sunnydale. That stupid thought that he would look after her better than anyone else if she remained by his side . How pathetic! Though he has already a mate and they already linked with each other... I don't know what was he thinking about the whole time." Is Lucy a joke to you?" I couldn't help but ask him one day in his office. " No ." He replied calmly."Then,what about Ruth?" I was astonished by his answer." She's gonna be my bride ,you know, it's in the prophecy. " He replied even more calmly. " F**k the damn prophecy Alexander! You are doing this just not because of the prophecy! " I screamed with anger as his calmness was so disgusting and unbearable. " You'll cause pain in your heart if you are apart
Elizabeth's POV " Why did you tell me that she was with you?" " It was not me,it was Steve, okay?"" Then why did you tell Steve that you are gonna take her home with you?"" So that you can't f**k her behind my back ,okay?" I screamed at Adam as we were having an argument. I saw that girl the day she went to the sick room with Adam. He was holding her down on his lap as she pretended to be senseless in his arms! How pathetic! Acting like all vulnerable when she was only with Adam! My heart was burning with anger as I saw them together that afternoon. I followed them to hear everything that they were saying to each other . I heard Adam told her he's gonna take her home after his basketball practice. I could take no more . I told Steve that I'm gonna take her to her house after school. I was sure that he'll tell Adam. It was nice that my plan worked! Adam didn't come to take her home at all that day! But I made a very tiny little mistake . I told Thomas about her when he was si
Ruth's POV I was so shocked that I couldn't move for a while . I didn't know what to say or how to react or respond to her accusations towards me. What she said about, didn't make any sense at all. What did I do? What was my fault ? I knew within my heart that ,Elizabeth didn't quite like me ..... but I never could imagine something like that. The way she is staring at me right now ,the way she's breathing deeply with rage . What did I do? " Elizabeth?" I said in a shocked voice. " What are you saying? What did I do?" I said in a perplexed tone and an agitated mind . At that moment , we both heard a sudden thudding noise on the door and saw Adam and Steve entering the room with a rush . " What happened! Gracious!" Steve exclaimed with wonder as he saw Mr. Alexander's lying body on the ground and also Elizabeth who was sitting right next to him with a glare . " I came here immediately after you called me ..." Adam said to me as he was walking towards Mr. Alexander's lying
RUTH'S POV I got angry with Mr Alexander and started to scream ,sitting inside of the car. I didn't know how he was feeling right that moment ,I just saw a pair of sad eyes looking straight through me . I didn't know how could I behave like an immature at that moment,,, I'm actually not like that...We got out of the car and went inside of my house to grab my things. "I'll wait in the car. You can collect your things,then we will settle down for the castle." Alexander said to me in a calm voice."I don't wanna go." I said quite stubbornly and decided not to move an inch from my spot . I stayed there like a statue,sitting firmly on the car seat. I could understand that,what I was doing was absolutely wrong and childish but,,, I didn't know why I kept doing that ,why I kept losing my attitude infront of Alexander.. It felt like,I wanted to show him the vulnerability inside of me ,the confusion inside of me,,,,the insecurity and the immaturity . It felt like,he was the person to who
ADAM'S POVI woke up in the hospital with a severe throbbing pain inside of my head. What was going on? The first thing I could remember was, I was talking to Ruth, and,, after a while, I heard some noises on my back yard and went to have a look on that. But, what actually happened after that? I tried to seat back up but couldn't ,as the pain was severe enough to glue me right away to my pillow. "Are you okay ,baby?" I heard a familiar voice and looked up.It was Elizabeth, looking straight in my eyes."Are you alright?" She came towards my bed and sat beside me on a chair. "Does something hurt?" She placed her warm hands over my head .I moved it away at once as it was too hot . I was feeling kind of nauseous. "Where is Ruth?" I asked Elizabeth out of curiosity. But her reaction Changed automatically after I uttered her name."Why are you talking about that stupid girl where I am by your side? why are you doing this Adam? do you love me or her?" I was shocked to hear her sc
RUTH'S POV I froze at the spot to see him standing behind me with vicious smile on his face ."Thomas!" I screamed with fear."Yes ,my love! it's me!" Thomas who was coming little by little at my direction, said in a snarling mockery ."Who was you expecting this time? Alexander?" The whole house burst with his vicious laughter. "I don't think,he can come anymore . And I'm really worried about our duel now. He'll be no match for me! No match! Ah! what a poor guy! Lost all his energies because of the broken link, how pathetic! It was really a waste of time that I actually trained hard and gave myself so much pain for the upcoming battle. " Thomas made a noise with his tongue. "He can no longer help you, Ruth!" He bent down and whispered to my ears ."Not your this lover too. A weak mortal human!" He turned over Adam's body with one of his hands and I gasped . Adam was bleeding furiously and he should be brought to the hospital immediately. "Don't you dare touch him!" I screa
Ruth's POV It took exactly a week to mom and dad leave the country to settle in Europe. They really tried their best to convince me to go with them but as they knew - the stubborn as I was ,I would never say yes on a thing once I said no. So,they left without me and prepared everything for me here . "Call us everyday, okay sweety?" Mom said before the flight . I went to the airport to see them off with Elizabeth. Though she hated me for everything - I knew that already the reasons why . But Mr. Alexander had arranged everything already so that we could make a perfect act infront of my parents. "Please take care of her ,sweetie." Dad requested Elizabeth. "It'll be so much appreciated! And please visit us when your school will be over for summer break ! " Elizabeth was standing there, pretending like a perfect friend - she talked with me normally, she even gave me a long hug infront of my parents . "Don't worry sir,I'll take care of everything!" She assured them quite a few times
RUTH'S POV "You have to live with me!" I was shocked as well as got furious when I heard him say it like so shamelessly! "What?" I screamed. "You are none but a pervert! Do you have any idea what you are saying to me right now?" I started to throw things at him. I didn't want to see his face again. What a shameless moron! How did he utter such a shameless thing infront of me! "You are crazy! You are ,,,you are...." I was so angry that,I started to stammer. "Listen!" Mr. Alexander came to me slowly and took the flower vase out of my hand which I was holding right that moment to spank his head."I didn't ask you to accompany me on my bed... you have mistaken. I just told you to move to my castle because of your safety issues! You know, things will never gonna be like before as you are thinking. Both of our lives got tangled to a mess and we have to solve the mystery together. Thomas and his clan will never gonna seat back now after finding out my weakness. You know, I'm not as str
Ruth's POV I moved slightly backwards as I saw the man approaching towards me. I was scared and irritated ,as well as disgusted, I didn't know why...I knew I should thank him for saving me many times,I should feel grateful for his activities- but ,,, I couldn't act that way .The thoughts of me being his bride was painful and shocking enough for me to bear . I was not prepared for this at all ! At least, I needed some time to calm myself down first. I didn't know how I would behave if I met him some days earlier before I met Adam. Mr. Alexander seemed nice,caring ,protective and handsome- must be a dream of any other girl in the world but ,I was already in love with Adam! How I could I feel anything for him when my whole heart just thinks about Adam all the time! And,,, as I had heard,Mr. Alexander was the wolf King! How could I ever date a werewolf when I was none but a mere human girl! The thought of that was crazy enough to react like this..."Ruth?" Mr. Alexander said ,while l
Ruth's POV "Ruth?" Adam said to me while coming inside of the room . He quickly went near my side and held me in his arms as I was not feeling well . I was in a state of unconsciousness when he lifted me up and laid me down on my bed. As I became senseless after that, I could remember nothing at all what happened after that..."Good morning! Are you awake ?" I heard Adam's voice as I slowly opened my eyes and saw him holding a cup of coffee in his hands ."Here. Take it." He passed me the cup from where I sipped a little bit in a few seconds. It was needed for me,,,a strong cup of coffee to help me get back to my energies again! And,I could remember everything about last night that I did out of propensity! Shit! I proposed to Adam! I quickly looked at his face but there I saw nothing but anxiety . Adam was looking at me with sympathy in his eyes while sitting on a sofa ,a bit further away from my bed. Oh! What did I do!! I wanted to slap myself so hard on the face and wanted t
Ruth's POV I looked out of the window - it was dark . There was no glimpse of the moon at the sky that time . The clouds were rumbling as if the sky would fall off anytime soon. The stars were no longer shining - everything that could be seen was - pitch black darkness....I sighed a little while lying on my bed . After coming back from Mr. Alexander's house ,I was feeling so confused and number that I fell on my bed without even changing my clothes. And I dreamt about the same dream that I was having since long enough to remember each and every detail of it too much more clearly. Though the nightmare didn't haunt me anymore since I came here - here in this small town where I was meant to come from a long while ago.... My heart shook with fear as I recalled the conversation with Mrs. Gordon, Mr. Alexander's granny. My head started to hurt again. I got up on my bed and went to the shower to take a hot bath . I adjusted the temperature and stood under the shower while slowly putting
Alexander's POV I looked at Lucy and then my gaze travelled back and forth to the sage to her face. There was no expression on Lucy's face ,she just kept on sobbing,resting her head on the sage's arms who was hugging her and kept patting her head ."Lucy must stay with you for the time being." He said again while patting her head.I could keep silence no longer and said suddenly, "But,,it doesn't make any sense,right? Doesn't make any sense at all ,Mr. Sage,,,I mean,she's your mate now..."I was interrupted by the mysterious gaze of him when he looked at me with question in his eyes."You know, Mr. Alexander, I have known you long enough before you were born,I was there when the war held between the two clans which took your parents lives ,I was there when everything was not started yet,I was there since the beginning and the end!" He said in a strong voice."Do you think,I don't know what I'm saying? Do you think I'm stupid, Mr. Alexander?" Then he paused for a little. "Lucy will st
