Delaury's POV “ Ouu it's been a long time Tristan, where have you been?”a woman greeted from behind the counter the moment we entered. Tristan gave her one of his charming smiles and I could see her blush in delight. “ I've been around, just small stuff you know,” he said, already looking around. “ Would you get her size please, we want some clothes for her” The woman turned to me, as if noticing me for the first time , she eyed me suspiciously. “ Oh, a new girl?” She said, still eyeing my outfit. “ Nothing for you too see Mira, get her clothes please” Tristan said, already looking annoyed at her delayed tactics. “ Yes , Tristan” she said, “ come with me” After a few minutes of disappearing into aisles she brought out a heap of clothes and pointed to a room at the left.“ I'm sure he'd want to see whatever you wear, so when you change , come back here” she ordered. I could only nod and take the clothes from her to try it on.After several “too revealing”, “ too short” and “ p
Orion’s POV The crowd in front of the stores confused me as Angela and I arrived. The paint shop was at the far end, making it easier to just enter than pass the people who had gathered around. “ Are you coming with me ? “ Angela asked, already leading the way. “ Uh- no, I want to check something,you go ahead “ Israel grunted within and I couldn't help but ask what was wrong. “ You missed this,” he said angrily. Angela turned to leave in a huff, obviously wanting to make a grand entrance with me. I don't know what was pulling me to the crowd.“ She was right here, it felt like some form of an attack” a lady said, obviously she had seen what was going on and was narrating it. “ Did he take her to the hospital?” A man asked. He smelled like a wolf. I walked to him instead. “ I don't know, he carried her in the car and they left in haste” she replied. “ What's happening?” I asked the man. He began to protest but sensing I'm also a wolf he explained. “ I think it was an Alpha
Delaury's POV I hadn't seen Tristan for days. I'd not been outside too for days, because the doctor said I should be resting and Krystal said Tristan preferred me to be in bed. My guess was he's probably still annoyed with me. “ How is he? “ I asked Krystal the moment she appeared to check on me. I'd just taken a shower and was preparing to lie down and wait for my breakfast. “ Angry,” she replied, placing the food tray on the bed. “ Still?” She nodded. “ How is he acting?” “ Throwing items around, kira keeps getting a hang of his anger” I grimaced. It was all my fault. Tristan had been acting all cool when I came till my wolf had to spoil it all. “ I need to talk to him” “ He's busy,” Krystal replied, a bit tense. “ Busy? “ “ Yes” “ With who? ““ Kira” “ Again” I said , a tug in my chest. Was it jealousy? She only nodded. “ Whatever I need to talk to him now “ I said. I needed to save Kira, I caused his anger. “ No, wait ,dont–” I was out of the door before Krystal c
Delaury's POV I didn't know where I was going, neither did I have any plan. Maybe I could go into the city, get a job like a normal person and be free from arrogant and ruthless Alphas. The silence of the wolf's age confused me. This was my second time here alone and this time I wasn't even sure I'd make it out of here. “ Did you think you could escape us ?” I turned to find a grey rogue wolf from some time ago, behind me. His yellow eyes roamed around me like some form of meat. The black wolf was nowhere in sight. “ What do you want from me? “ “ You're obviously lost aren't you?” He asked, coming closer whilst I stepped back.“ No–”“ You liar!” He roared, causing me to whimper. “ I am not lost” “ You still smell like a lone wolf, an unmated one” he said, a little smirk on his face. “ There's no one to protect you now, not even your big bad alpha” I would do anything for Tristan to appear right now. I needed to stall him.“ How did you know about him?”“ Who doesn't know Tr
Orion's POV “What nonsense? Rejection happens all the time in the wolf's age and the wolves accept it. This is total rubbish!” Dad yelled, pointing directly at Yolanda. “ Those are my findings General, you may ask the oracle for more information “ Yolanda, unperturbed, replied dutifully. “ How is this even possible? That outcast was rejected almost weeks ago and you're telling me this? “ He continued, ignoring her order.“ We can't predict the moon goddess General” “ Have you been thinking of her? Did you even have any form of intimacy with her?” He turned to me, his eyes daring me to say something so he would blame. “ No dad, I didn't even know her face until the mating ceremony and neither did I touch her “ I lied. A complete one. I knew her and I'd touched her before she was banished. “ Then what the hell is going on here!?” This time, he spoke to no one in particular, pacing back and forth. “ It's never happened before–” Yolanda backed up, and I wished I could strangle her.
Delaury's POV Tristan and I weren't talking, I ignored him completely and so did he. We no longer had breakfast together. I'd started learning how to sew, and Krystal was my teacher. I was practising on one material when she came to call me.“ Alpha Tristan is looking for you” “ What does he want? ““I don't know, miss, maybe you should go find out for yourself, he's with Tyron” she replied with an annoyed tone. The information indicating Tyron being around was obviously the cause of her anger. “ Alright, I'll be down soon” “ He says now!” She said, snatching the material from my hand. “ Fine, I'm going” “ Where is he?”“ He's at the house entrance, outside I think”“ Well he could have just come up here!” I grumbled and walked to where I was being called. Tristan and Tyron stood outside with five ladies, the one that disgraced me earlier was a part of them.“ You called for me” I said, looking at Tyron instead of Tristan. “ I promised to teach you how to transform into your
Delaury's POV “ In simple terms she can't shift for now, I can't explain further because I don't know what's going on” Dr Jules stated, obviously upset that he's been called back to the pack mansion.“ Every wolf can shift ,Jules, what the hell is wrong? !” Tristan asked..“ Let's ask her then, Miss Delaury, what happened?”Telling them my wolf spoke words I couldn't understand to me would lead to many questions I wouldn't be able to answer. “ I just wasn't feeling my wolf,” I said. “ But you told Tyron your wolf spoke to you “Tristan replied, clearly confused. “ Yes I did, I only felt it ,not necessarily speaking to me “ I explained. He only nodded. “ How did you feel before you couldn't control yourself?”“ I don't know, just some uncomfortable feeling rising through me, I couldn't control the heat, I did hear someone tell me to stop but I couldn't stop, just like–” I paused. What if they find out I was responsible for killing my own parents with something I didn't even rememb
Delaury's POV “ You did what? “ Krystal yelled into my ears for the sixth time.“Tristan kissed me” I simply stated. “ Oh my moon!” Krystal yelled.“ Will you keep it down !” “ How can I? You finally kissed Tristan!!!” Her enthusiasm exceeded mine. Star had been grunting since Tristan left the room. Apparently she didn't improve the little intimacy.“ I can't believe this, this is so interesting, “ she said, sitting beside me on the bed. Her smile reminded me of Sylvia. I missed her so much. I wondered how she'd feel if she heard I'd replaced her. I needed to find a way to see her. “ Why are you so quiet now?” Krystal said, smiling. “ I really don't know what else to say Krystal, I literally told you whatever happened “ “ Well, how was it? ““ It was okay, I guess ““ Your first kiss,I can't believe this!” “ This isn't my first kiss” “ What do you mean?” She asked ,confused. My mind wandered back to Orion's kiss. “ Orion kissed me before I came” “ What?”“ Yeah,” “ That e
Orion's PovThe weather was oddly chilled for a blood moon night. A rare night I'd never experienced before but the weather didn't describe the night. “ Are we set?” I turned to Ervin. “ Yes Alpha, though the moon looks oddly bloody” he stated and I couldn't agree more. He was right. The whole pack was shining red almost as if the the world itself was blood colored. “ Get the people so we begin the ceremony, where are Sebastian and Sylvia? “ “ Fidele went to check on them, Sebastian said something about Sylvia not feeling too well” I nodded, making a mental note to go see him. The omegas strutted into the pack grounds, dressed into their finest clothes. The whole pack would rebel against my decision to include them to the blood moon festival but I wouldn't listen. As long as they had a role to play, they were also part of the pack.She was also part. I watched as the pack strutted in, some in pairs and trios. Mostly in pairs. Mates. Yolanda nodded in my direction and I walked t
Delaury's POV “ The necklace, where is my necklace Tristan?” I asked. I'd woken up to see him staring at me. I didn't have to check to know that the necklace was gone . “ Which necklace, brownie? “ he asked, trying to act devious. “ Quit playing with me Tristan, you know that necklace was on my neck yesterday, and you asked about it” I retorted. I turned the covers of the bed and realized it wasn't there. I wasn't dreaming then, he actually cut it off my neck. “ There's no necklace Brownie,” he said, “ at least not where you're searching though “ A sinister smile danced around his lips as he watched me desperate. I turned to him again.” Where is the damned necklace Tristan, I saw you cut it off my neck” “ Why didn't you stop me then? “ He questioned, meeting my gaze. I lowered mine. I'd been paralysis ivy something I couldn't explain. “ Why did you take the necklace Tristan? “ “ It's from the Eziele pack, you're in the Jolt's pack, you're the soon to be Luna of the Jolt's p
Orion's POV “ Find her before he destroys her” Old Tasha’s words ring a bell in my head the whole week. Before who destroys her and who am I finding in the first place?It was the blood moon's eve and Instead of being with my future mate like everyone was expected to be, I was out here on the path to her house searching for clues as to where she might be . Old Tasha refused to give us back the book and even being the Alpha couldn't control her to give it back. We just left. I'd pretended everything was normal until tonight when Israel wouldn't be still, I'd gone for a night run, yet I was still uncomfortable. I'd told Angels I had to check if the pack was safe before I came back and she'd agreed , clearly she was exhausted from her shopping spree with her mom. “ Alpha Orion” I turned to find Fidele behind me. “Yes?” “ General Eziele is looking for you, he doesn't look happy” “ Any reason?”“ Angela is quite pissed you're not around her at the moment, she's throwing a tantrum,
Delaury's POV I was straddling him now, his lips hovering over mine as his hands squeezed my body tight. I could feel him smile throughout the kiss. He knew what he was doing,if I stopped he was going to do something that will be on me. The future Luna that couldn't keep her alpha busy. He tapped me at the waist. “ We can't kiss all night brownie” he whispered, his hands finding the button of my dress to undo it. I was bare now, my hardened buds grazed against his cold hard chest. They were so pointy that it hurt.His fingers played with each bud as I moaned. “ That's it brownie , it's all mine” he whispered, he had stopped kissing me now and his tongue took one bud in his mouth.“Tristan –” “ Yes brownie “ he whispered. He turned me over now, and he was lying on me, adjusting his stance with one of his arms so he wouldn't suffocate me with his heavy body. He continued to kiss me as his hands trailed down to my skirt. The funny thing was, I wasn't wearing anything. Almost as if
Delaury's POV Blood moon eve. My whole body has been anticipating this day. Why? I don't know. Tristan has really been busy these past few days, working on moon knows who. He's been hunting a lot lately and I just felt the need to clear my head too so I ignored him. I'm obligated to be his mate after all. Star cringed inwardly in me.“ shut up, you're not even making me a wolf “ I hissed back. Tristan was on his way back from hunting and as I promised Krystal, I was currently seated at where I could see him come back. Waiting for him. The diamond necklace lay between my breasts, shining alongside the the glowing moon. I could see shades of red appear on it and I really wasn't ready for what was to happen. I could see Azrael stop at the sight of me seated there, he wasn't expecting me I guess. He mostly came back when I was asleep and left before I woke up. I turned my head as I heard him shift and few minutes later he was walking behind me. “ You're here? “ It was more like a q
Orion's POV “ This , I found this “ I slammed the book on the table, in front of Sylvia and Sebastian. The two watched me in confusion. .“Where did you find it? “ Sylvia asked suspiciously. “ Delaury's house” I needed to come clean If I wanted to get their help. “ What did you go and do there? Haven't you heard of privacy” She yelled. “ Calm down Sylv, technically there's no–” Sebastian didn't end his sentence, she glared at him, as much as she was glaring at me. “ I don't understand this,” I continued, urging them to open it. Sylvia hesitated for sometime before taking it. Their faces were contorted in the same way I had mine when I saw it. “ I – never saw this when she was there, “ Sylvia confessed. “ You never saw her writing or reading? “ She shook her head. “ These are just so good yet I haven't seen any of them before” she continued. “ Wait ,we need to find what it really means” “ Remind me why you're snooping in her things and demanding answers again? “ “ Sylvia,
Orion's POV “ I can't believe your dad got me this dress, it's so beautiful” Angela exclaimed for the tenth time. My ears were screaming for peace. “ Yes it is, you look beautiful” I said. Genuinely she did look beautiful. It was high time I focused on someone who was mine since we were kids, than holding on to someone I never really spoke to nor cared about. Or did I? “ I know you weren't supposed to see it but I couldn't resist showing it to you, promise me you'll act surprised when you see me wearing it” she said, turning her seductive eyes on me. “ I promise,” I replied. A part of me should feel guilty that it was my dad that got it for her and not me , but all the same I didn't even know it was going to be a celebration which required dressing up. “ Good, “ she kissed me and returned to taking the dress off in my presence. I'd never really looked at her with her dress off. I'd seen many girls though but with her, I felt it was inappropriate to do so when we hadn't mated ye
Delaury's POV It was a dream. I kept whispering to myself. I'd been having hallucinations since Kira's death and I was damned near crazy. The mansion’s earlier tension has reduced a bit, with Krystal finally coping with the fact that she had a family member who was still alive. I didn't know the story of her mom's death but really didn't want to pry. “ You okay? “ I was watching the wolves go about their daily activities, it was morning but I figured I'd been sitting in one place for almost three hours. “ I'm fine, where are they? “ I asked Krystal. Tyron and Tristan still have some silent fights amongst themselves. “ To train the young wolves.” She simply stated. Her pregnancy glow was just something else. A thought crossed my mind and I pushed it far away. “ What are you wearing for the blood moon night? “ “ Wearing? “ She glared at me in shock. “ I'll let that pass since you didn't experience back at your former pack, it's a celebration here, we need to get you sn
Delaury's POV The death of Kira was the most rumored case in all of the Jolt's Pack. Tristan made it clear not to mention what took place at the pack mansion but I couldn't help but think about the words she said before dying. And what type of wolf was she? “ Delaury” Tyron called out, “ Krystal is awake now” The two spent a whole night talking and I simply figured they'd worked things out. Tristan was yet to speak to her but I decided not to pester him if he actually promised to do so. We've been quite rocky too, I didn't if I was the one avoiding him or he was. “ You called for me” I simply said , when I entered the room. Krystal was up now and the usual gloominess was gone. “ Thank you,” she said. “ For? “ “I really don't know how I would have survived in this house without you, especially with this weird issue going on” “ Don't worry, I know it hurts but you really need to put everything aside and forgive okay” I advised, she nodded smiling. “ I need to talk to you, too
