Alex POVAs I am busy rummaging through Mason's closet for something to wear,I hear voices coming from the living room. It just makes this all the more real. I come across a white shirt and throw it on. My underwear was still wet and it was becoming uncomfortable.I put my damp hair in a high bun and saw how bad all the hickeys looked. I let it down and it still didn't cover all the purple marks. Foundation.I quietly walk to the door and poked my head out. I look down the hall towards the livingroom and I don't see anybody. I tiptoe all the way to my room door and open it slowly. I get in and close the door. I speed walk to my vanity and start looking for the foundation. Finding it,I take off my shirt and move my hair out of the way. I squirt some of the liquid on the sponge and start applying it to the purple spots. Once I'm done,I look in the mirror and see that it only looks faded but not invisable. I sigh and put the shirt back on,ignoring the burn it brings to my body. The
Aiden's POV"We got some!" Zeus screams in my head and I smile. Although Zeus does not have physical human features, he does experience the same energy and emotions that I experience. "Calm down." I tell him and he chuckles. "How can I? We had an awesome week, got to fix things with our mate and fucked the shit out of her not more then an hour ago." He states excitedly and I softly chuckle. "What are you laughing about?" I hear next to me and I divert my eyes for a split seconds to look at my baby girl. "Nothing. Just thinking." I tell her and she grabs my hand kissing it. "Thinking about what?" She asks curiously. I smirk and she raises her brows as I look at her from the corner of my eye. "I'm thinking about how good you felt around me." I tell her through the mindlink. I hear her talk in a quick breath as her hand tightens slightly around mine. Her heart spikes a tad but her face looks calm. "Three more hours of driving and you'll be feeling the goodness is every single positi
Kenzie's POVWe just got back to Aiden's parents house and I feel tired as hell. The drive over here and the fast, hot sex that Aiden and I had this morning, when we got here and in my room has worn me out.We're coming from the pharmacy where we got the morning after pill. After spending twenty minutes on arguing about who had to go in and buy it, I finally won and Aiden walked in. His heart was just about ready to burst out of his chest when he walked up to the cashier. Listening in, I laughed as he stuttered while asking the old lady for the pill. I even heard her scoff before placing something on the counter. He was flushed all over when he walked out of there. Me being me, I couldn't contain my laughter. "I'm starving." Aiden says and we walk to the backyard. "Me too." I groan and he laughs throwing his arm over my shoulder and kissing my head. "Where have you guys been?" Eva asks swallowing her burger. "We went to take care of a few things." I say and Aiden nods. "Like that
Kenzie's POV"That was horrible." Jeremy whines and I chuckle. "It wasn't that bad." I tell him and he glares at me. "Because your some kind of fucking genius!" He yells and I smirk at him."Shut up and let's go eat." We walk to the cafeteria and wait in line to get our food. I get a jumbo burger and fries with a mango juice and Jer gets four chicken and mayo sandwiches with a coke.We pay and go to our table as we wait for the others. "Five more subjects. Just five more and I'm out of here." Jeremy says as he takes a bit out of his sandwich. I giggle shaking my head. Looking up, I see my handsome mate and the rest of our friends walking towards the lunch line. I continue eating as I wait for them to come to the table and Jake walks towards us. I smile at him and he salutes us when he gets here. "What's up?" I ask and he sits down next to me after greeting both Jeremy and I. "I need your help." He says looking desperate and a tad nervous. "I'm listening." I say wiping my mouth wit
Kenzie's POV"This is so fucking good." Jeremy says as he scoops another spoonful of ice-cream into his mouth. I laugh and look at Aiden who looks stressed. It's been a week since I listened in on their conversation and it has been bugging me the whole time. "Are you okay?" I ask and he looks at me and nods. "Yeah. I'm fine, just tired." He says sending me a small-forced- smile. "We can leave if you want. It's getting late anyway." I tell him and he looks at his watch before nodding. "Guys, we're gonna head out. See you guys tomorrow at the lake?" Aiden asks as I gather my things. "It's Friday and it's not even ten yet. Why the fuck are you guys leaving?" Dree asks and I point over to Aiden. She rolls her eyes and I smile. "See you guys tomorrow." I say before hugging them and leaving with Aiden beside me. "I know something is bothering you. Talk to me." I say as he starts the car after we get in. "I'm fine Kenz. It's nothing." "It doesn't seem like nothing because I can tell so
Kenzie's POVI lay back laughing at Jake's story about how he accidentally peed on Jasmine while they were climbing a tree. He apparently had to go really bad but was too high up and just let it rip all over her head."I would've killed you if it were me." I tell him and he laughs. "I'm going to feel so horrible tomorrow." I say running a hand down my face. "And what's worse is that I have training." I add and Jake laughs. "All things good have a consequence." He says before getting up. "It's 4 in the morning, I have to get going." He says getting up slowly and stumbling slightly. "I'll walk you to the door." I say and we both laugh as I can't get up. "It's okay. This was fun. We should do it more often." He says and I nod. "Of course." I say and he smiles. "Night. Or morning." I say and he laughs. "Good morning/night." I giggle and he walks down the hall. Shutting the door, I walk back to my bed before plopping down on it. A groan leaves me as I feel the room spinning. "Fuck."
Kenzie's POVEverything has been going great between Aiden and I since the last arguement. With graduation approa hing so fast, I'm a little on edge but it might just be the fact that we're entering a new chapter of our lives. We won't be children anymore. I've always pictured myself on graduation day surrounded by my family. My dad would be taking blurry selfies while I have my arms wrapped around my mom and my brother. I've always pictured that. That is what the perfect day looks like in my head."Kenz? Are you okay?" I hear from next to me and look up from my plate. "Huh? Yeah, I'm fine. Just thinking." I say and I see Aiden frown slightly. "Penny for your thoughts?" He says nudging me slightly, a small smile playing on his lips. I know he can feel my sadness through the mate bond so I don't even try pulling his attention off the topic. "Just thinking about how great graduation would've been if my family could be be there." I say softly and he immediately grabs my hand. "Hey.
Kenzie's POV2 months later."We are graduating tomorrow. How are you guys not freaked the fuck out. Like we will officially be done with school. Like no more teachers bossing us around. No having to see people you don't like for six hours everyday anymore. This is amazing!" Jeremy rants as he paces around in Aiden's parents living room. "Can you calm down." Eva says as she flips to the next page of the books she's reading. "No. I can not calm down. How can I calm down!" "Jeremy. Shut the fuck up!" Dree shouts from the kitchen where she's making us something to eat. I laugh as he immediately stops talking before sitting down on the mat. "When's the food gonna be ready, Dree. We're starving." Derek asks and you can hear her sigh from the kitchen. "Well it was going to be ready in two minutes but I'm going to cook it even long now that you're rushing me." She stresses and Derek rolls his eyes. Everybody is stressed about tomorrow besides Eva and I. The past two months have been fi
*7 years later.*Kenzie's POVAiden pulls my chair out next to his at the head of the table. I sit down and thank him. He takes his seat and instantly grabs my hand. I smile at him and lightly squeeze. "Wanna watch a movie after dinner?" He asks and I nod. "Yeah. I have to help your mom with something first though." I tell him and he furrows his brows. "And what's that?" He asks and I raise a brow with a small smirk. "Nosey much." He raises his hands in surrender and I laugh. "You look beautiful." He compliments me and a blush rises on my cheeks. Years later and he still gives me butterflies. "Thank you, baby. You look so handsome." I say and he has a proud smile on his face. "Thank you, my love." "Can you guys stop flirting so we can eat. We're freaking starving." Dree says as she rubs her pregnant belly. 6 months pregnant and ready to pop, that's what she is. "The food isn't even at the table yet, Dree." I say and she pouts. "Here, have some cheese." Aiden quickly offers as he
Kenzie's POV(Three weeks later)It is the day of the fight and for some odd reason I am very calm.I have spent these three weeks getting used to the fact that I would not need to take care of Aiden anymore whilst training for the fight. The stress and annoyance of not having his attention has been taking the focus away from everything else.He has been very distant, constantly hiding away in the library with his nose in a book which is weird but expected since he literally just came out of a coma. I have a feeling that he wants to do things that he would not have done before and I totally get it. ...but I need attention. And this behaviour could also be because of what happened last week..."Hey." I hear from behind me and turn around. "You're back." I say and he walks further into the room. "What are you up to?" He asks sitting down next to me. "I'm getting the last of the pack work done. I can't seem to find the medical records of one pack member and it's stressing me out." I t
Aiden's POVI wake up in a dark room with my sleeping mate cuddled up to me. My heart rate spikes at the sight of her and a beeping noise draws my attention to the side. I look at the heart rate monitor that is hooked up and I furrow my brows. There is a needle from an IV in my arm. What the hell is going on?I slowly pull the needle out and remove the peg from my finger. My body screams in pain with every move I make and I lowly groan. Kenzie sturrs next to me and I stay still not wanting her to wake up. She turns over and grabs her pillow like she alway does. A soft chuckle escapes me as I move the hair behind her ear. After watching her for a couple more minutes, I slowly get off the bed and stand up with much difficulty. My body aches from head to toe but I ignore it and grab her phone to look at the time. 05:39 am.I set it back down and walk to the bathroom. Turning the light on, I look at myself to see something I didn't expect. A thin, pale face, dark circles under my ey
Kenzie's POVI take the towel out of the cool water and wring it out before pressing it against Aiden's burning body.It has been four days since we got him back and he has yet to wake up. The doctor said that he has silver poisoning and that the wolfsbane was slowly shutting down his body. His organs might start shutting down if he doesn't start showing signs of recovery. The poison is slowly killing him. If we had waited 30 minutes or more to get him to the doctor, he would've died. That thought alone makes me sick to my stomach. I have tried to shake it off but it bothers me. It had been so easy for that Hellhound to find us, who says other threats are not lurking. Well of course they are but how did they know where to find us. I've started becoming so paranoid that I wouldn't let anybody but Aiden's parents and our friends come near him. Even then, I'm still second guessing their intentions. It doesn't matter what relationship thwy have with him, everybody puts me on edge when
Aiden's POVI don't know how long I've been here but I know that it has been days. They have given me food twice which is hardly enough for me to keep my strength up but they know that. They are being supposedly smart about this and I have to give it to them. All I'm waiting for is the moment one of them slips up. I've tried finding a way out but the most room is lined with silver and wolfsbane which makes it impossible to hear or touch anything near the door or windows. Zeus is weak from the silver and lack of food but he still responds now and then. The door opens loudly but I don't look up as the repulsive smell hits my nostrils. "Wake up, dick brain." Beji's annoying voice rings in my ear and I growl at him. "You'd be wise to have a little more respect then that, mutt, for you'd be sorry when I get my hands on you." I say looking up slowly just in time to see the fear in his eyes before he tries to cover it."You're not getting out alive so you can only dream of killing me."
Kenzie's POV"What are you doing dumbass. You have to catch it not run from it." Aiden yells from across the soccer field. "Well forgive me for wanting to keep my head on my shoulders. You kick like a freaking...like a freaking... I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT!" I yell in frustration and he starts laughing. "Stop it." I whine with a pout on my lips. I cross my arms over my chest and he stops laughing. "Aww baby, come on now. You're going to learn... eventually. I'm just trying to prepare you for what's to come when you have to play an actual game. I kick harder to give you an advantage." He explains and I look up at him with an annoyed look. "I don't even like soccer. Or any sport for that matter." I say and he chuckles. "Then let's find something you do like." He says and I look up at him with a smile causing him to roll his eyes. "Sleeping is not a sport, Kenzie." He says and I huff."Come on. Let's go cool off in the lake." He suggests with a mischievous look and I giggle. Jumping int
Kenzie's POVI wake up to people talking around me and a numbing pain all over my body. A whimper leaves me due to the the pain I feel when I try to move my legs. "Hey, hey. You have to be still, honey. Relax." I hear a voice familiar to Alex's speak. I feel her rubbing my hair but I can't actually see her. Blurry figures is all I can see. "Aiden?" I call softly and my heart starts racing once I feel a dull ache in my chest. "Aiden!?" I yell out to him but nobody answers. "Where is Aiden!? Where is my mate!?" I scream as I blindly look around the room. Not being able to see anything only adds on to the frustration and anger. Ignoring the pain I lift my heavy arms and legs only to be held down. "Let go of me! I want Aiden!" I keep yelling."Doctor, can we give her something to calm her down." I hear somebody ask with urgency in their voice. I soon feel a sharp sting in my arm and a loud howl leaves me. "FUCKING LET GO!" I yell in pure rage and pain as the ache in my chest grows.
Kenzie's POV"Stop." I say giggling as he keeps on kissing up my neck. We just got out the shower and Aiden is in a great mood. He suggested that we watch a movie but he is distracting me more then we're actually focused on the T.V."No." He whines into my neck as he throws his leg over me, clinging onto me like a koala bear. "My little baby." I say kissing his forehead and I can feel him smile against my skin. "We should do something fun today." I suggest and he lifts his head from my neck. "Like what?" He asks and I shrug."We could go for a run and swim in the stream behind the house." He says and I squeal. "Oh my gosh yes! I have been dying to get into some water other then the shower." I say and he chuckles. "You are so random." He says before getting up and pulling me with him. We walk into the closet and he pulls our bags out. I get out my royal blue bikini that I didn't know that I packed and he put on some blue and yellow swim trunks."How does this look?" I ask him and he
Kenzie's POVWe are on our way to Alpha and Luna's cabin and the tension in the car is overwhelming. The party ended at eleven o'clock and now we are on our way to our 'alpha and luna honeymoon'. Luna suggested that we go last minute and I thinking that she caught onto the bad vibes between Aiden and I. We have not spoken since we left and I really don't care anymore. If he wants to act like a child and pout or sulk the whole time then fine. I'm not going to force communication with a grown ass man. He pulls into the drive way and shuts the car off before getting out. Slamming the door shut he goes to the back and gets the bags out. I get out and go towards the back as he walks to the front door with only one bag in his hand. That little prick."We don't need your fucking help anyway, asshole!" Aria rages and I can tell that she's really affected by Aiden and Zeus shutting us out. "Relax, Ari. He just as a bruise ego." I tell her and she huffs. I get my bags out and shut the trunk
