Alexios POV

"We are late for class." She was nervous. Was I too hasty to have kissed her? Or is she nervous because I am finding it difficult to control the urge of claiming her as mine... Of marking her.

Class? Like he would dare disobey my order.

"No, we will be right on time." I told her swallowing in the urge to beg her to leave school with me. The urge to take her away to somewhere private, somewhere no one will listen in on our conversation. A place where I can have her open her thoughts, and her fears to me.

"How can you sound so certain? Come on we should go." She surprised me by linking her fingers with mine as she tried pulling me outside with her. Chuckling, I let her pull me along. As we got to the class, she tried pulling her finger away from mine, and when she noticed I wasn't letting her, she looked at me with her cute eyes pleading.

"Why?" I mouthed. I did overhear her conversation with Skylar, but I can't confront her or be too forward about it as it is illogical

    Sophia's POV "So... Will you mind if I hang out at yours?" Skylar asked. "My parents won't be home till later and I truly do not want to stay home all by myself." I nodded. Having her at my place should be fun. We could get some homework done and just have fun together. "I would love to have you over." I smiled in response. "Awesome! We just have to wait for your mom now right? Fuck! Will she be okay with me coming over? I might have to stay for a while." I laughed knowing mom will be happier to have her over than I would be. "I am sure she will love to have you there." I noticed her weird signal to a certain area so I looked over. Alexios and the guys were heading toward his car. "They definitely saw us..." Skylar murmured. "Did you two have an argument?" Argument? More like our tongues were entangled in a battle. "No we didn't argue." "Well, like I said, they saw us. I am sure of it but they all looked away like we aren't standing here." I looked back at them wondering if t

    Alexios POV I hurt her... When Skylar had asked her if we had an argument and insisted I had seen them which was true, it pained me when she insinuated I had ignored Sophia. I was on a mission to ignore her, to make her realize just how hurtful and ridiculous it would be if we stayed apart as she wanted. But I ended up hurting her, making her cry. When her call came in, my first instinct was to pick it up, to hear her voice. But I ended up pressing the lower volume button, I ended up muting her call. "Are you sure you are alright?" Wyatt had asked. Of course I wasn't alright! I was battling with myself. A part... A huge part of me wanted to run to her, into her arms, and tell her to never stay away from me, but then, I wanted her to see how impossible ignoring one another in school will be. How hurtful that would be for both of us. "I don't think his phone is in his pocket." She was right, the phone isn't in my pocket but in my hands instead. "Shit! Skylar is dragging her

    "Hi dad." My parents were cuddled together as they watched the TV. I know I am not supposed to disrupt their moment together, but my situation was quite urgent. More so, dad already acquired his mate, he will have to understand my situation. "You look... Did you run back home? Haven't I told you to not run in your wolf form during this hour?" Dad scolded. The only reason he had implemented a curfew in town was so that any werewolf who wishes to run around in their beast form won't have to worry about being seen. After he implemented the curfew, I had indeed stopped running around in my wolf when it is not dark until today. "Sorry dad, I had no choice. Mom, can I speak with you... Alone." Dad glared at me but released his hold on mom as she nodded. "Thanks." I mouthed to dad as I took moms hand and raced up the stairs with her. "So?" She asked after closing the door behind her. "I made her cry." Before she could punch me, I hastily went ahead to tell her what happened and how it

    Sophia's POV "Is that still him?" Skylar asked and I nodded. "Maybe you should pick up and speak with him." She suggested while I shook my head. I might be anxious to hear his voice, to hear his reason for his actions earlier, to just hear him talk to me. But there is also this fear inside of me, the fear that he might just want to end it all with me. "I won't." I responded to Skylar and went back to throwing the dice. We were currently playing Jenga and so far I am winning. The aim of the game was to help distract me from thinking about him but here he is still calling! "Are you okay? Don't answer that... Of course you are not okay. Any luck trying to be fine?" Skylar asked and I shook my head. If I am being honest, I am failing at trying to be alright. "I will be fine besides..." I heard my phone notification sound so I pause to check. It is him... Opening the text, "Hi, I know I have a lot of explanations to do and I promise I never meant to hurt you but I unfortunately ende

    Alexios POV "See you at dinner." That was what the text read. "They agreed." Picking out a suitable cloth to wear became a challenge. I never thought it would be that difficult to decide on something to wear. "Are you two not ready yet?" I asked my parents who were cuddled up against each other. Mom glanced at dad before turning to me, "Did you give Sophia a call? Or are we just showing up at their doorstep?" Mom asked and I frowned. Hadn't she implied we did that earlier? "I called her and got approval to be there for dinner with you all." Her mouth formed an 'O'. "Okay. Don't fret, your dad and I will be ready in no time. You just go upstairs and make sure Ophelia gets ready too." She moved her head urging me to get moving. "Weren't you serious about wanting to go earlier?" I asked her. "I just wanted to give you a reason to call her, but this is good too. It works perfectly." She grinned before shooing me away. Ophelia's room has to be the liveliest room in our home. S

    Alexios POV. "Oh yes. Your dad should be attending to them now. I should head out. You two should come out too." We heard Sophia mom's voice. I am assuming she is talking to Sophia and someone else. Taking a sniff, I recognized the scent to be that of Skylar. "I don't think this man is happy to see us." Ophelia mind linked. Truly, although Sophia's dad tried to hide it, it was obvious he wasn't pleased to have us here. "He will by the end of this evening." Dad responded as the two men continued to exchange pleasantries. "Hello Mr. and Mrs. Chester. It is my pleasure to have you two in my home." Sophia mom walked out with a smile on her lips. "Oh no Mrs James, we are grateful for the invitation. And please just call me Alison." Mom answered her eyes shining. What is she planning this time? "In that case, please call me Millie too." Sophia's mom responded "Ok. Dinner time, hopefully Alexios lives to tell the story." I heard Skylar say. Dad snickered and Ophelia chuckle

    Sophy's POV I bit my lips as I cast a pity glance his way. I didn't expect mom to play such a childish trick just so he wouldn't eat the food she had made. But then again, this is way better than all the thoughts that had gone through my head. "Awesome. Do you by chance know why she had cried earlier? These two are refusing to tell me anything." What does she mean by we didn't?! She had literally squeezed the reason out of our mouth's earlier. Skylar and I shared a look. "You cried?" Dad asked watching me. I know him well enough to know he is getting upset. Shaking my head, I gave him a reassuring smile. "It wasn't much of a big deal dad." Seeing the frown that was still etched on his face, I held his palm as I squeezed silently promising him that I was fine and it had truly not been much of a big deal. But dad ignored me as he watched Alexios glaringly. "I..." He stuttered glancing around the room. Before stopping his gaze on me. I don't know why, but I looked away and in

    We both walked side by side, none of us uttering a word. "Sophia..." He suddenly stopped causing me to stop too. "I am sorry. I had not intended to hurt you with my actions, and by the time I realized it, the damage had already been done." Watching him look so apologetic when I had been the one at fault made me frown even more. His words had kept on playing in my head. 'I hadn't meant to make her cry, I... I just wanted her attention more. She was too concerned about how others would view our relationship that she didn't realize how affected I was by that. I honestly only wanted her to experience how we would be with one another.' I didn't realize how hurt he could get with my decision. I had thought I was doing the right thing as that would help him keep his reputation. "No I am sorry Alexios. I had promised myself that I would always be open with you and communicate my thoughts to you but I didn't which caused this misunderstanding. I didn't realize how hurt you could get bec

    Skylar's POV Two days ago my only friend left and ever since I haven't been able to reach either her or her mom. And today, as I walk to the cafeteria, I forced myself to not cry. I am back to being the loner, I am not boring, and I am not a bad person either, but weirdly enough, people seem to stay away from me. They seem to be uninterested in getting to know me. When Sophia had first resumed, seeing her wear that big sweater and being fidgety, I had approached her, and God when I saw her, I had thought she would be a bitch and walk away. She had both the face and the body to compare with the school hottest girl and she would have most likely won, yet that girl prefers to hide behind a big sweater. I wanted to unravel her, and when her relationship with Alex got serious, well she started loosening up. I was happy to see her happy, that in love. "Skylar, wait up. Hi." Caius called and I turned to see them all walking over. Since the tension, we are only seeing today for the

    "Sophia." Skylar's sleepy voice called as she sat up."Oh Sophy, don't cry anymore please." She pleaded as she tried to wrap me in a hug. "Your dad will hate to see you like this."I showed her the pictures and her face showed immense anger. "This has to be photoshopped. He hates being this close to other ladies that isn't you." She said as she glared at the pictures."There is only one way to find out, I am going to him." I told her as I stood up and looked for something decent but casual to wear. Since he is not picking up my calls, then I will head over to his place."But it is risky out there Sophy." I know that, I knew that but I needed to go confirm this myself. Was he really going to be engaged to that lady soon? Why? Is he being forced into it? Was that what had bothered him all through his stay with me last night?Skylar heaved a sigh and got up, she insisted on following me. I knew if I went out through the main door, I would be stopped, so I climbed down my window after pic

    "Dad you have got to stop talking, you need every bit of strength you can muster to fight this. And besides you are scaring me." I cried as I pleaded but his weak eyes just stared back at me. 'How can he still be trying to smile?'"Sweetheart, promise me you will leave here. It will hurt but you have to endure the pain and leave. When he is stronger, when he can protect you, or when and if you finally can meet that part of you you are yet to meet, then maybe you can come back of you are strong enough. I don't want you to become a pawn in the battle of strength. Please promise me." I cried even more hearing his plea."I promise dad, I promise." He nodded as he looked visibly relieved. Mom pushed the door as she walked in, her eyes red. 'Was she crying? What did the doctor tell her?' I stood silently as I couldn't bring myself to ask her questions and I just watched her walked over and held dad's hands."You are so cruel." She told him and dad chuckled weakly."I am glad I get to live

    "I need to see my dad. I have to see him." I pleaded wanting to leave his hold but Owen's strength was one I couldn't pull out of."You will have to wait until your mom is out." The nurse said in what she most likely thinks is a comforting voice."Come with me sweetheart, you will need to wear some special clothing before you can go in there." Mom who had been inside said. Her eyes were red, she has obviously been crying. "While you are with your dad, I will go talk to the doctor." I nodded ."How is he mom?" I asked her crying. "I don't know. Hence why I need to go talk to a doctor." Mom's voice was breaking which only added to my fear. 'How could a wolf attack him? He didn't go to a jungle, he was dri ing home to us! What happened?' I had so many questions with no one to answer them. I was given some sort of a disposable jumpsuit to wear and some disposable cap to use. After dressing up, the staff led me back to dad's ward, while mom went looking for the doctor.Owen was still th

    I woke up to an empty bed, 'Where is he?' I wondered as I listened thinking maybe he was in the bathroom, but no matter how long I listened, there was no sound coming out from the bathroom.I stepped out of the room and found mom eating an apple. "Good morning mom." I greeted her with a smile."Good morning princess. How was your night?" She asked winking and I blushed."Good mom, it was good." Looking around, "Mom where is Alexios?" I asked her."He left quite early this morning, he said something came up and he needed to go. He had asked me to tell you as he didn't want to wake you up." I nodded biting my lips.'Hopefully everything is alright with him.' I knew there was more to what he had told me last night, but since he wasn't willing to share much, I decided to trust and wait for him."What is for breakfast?" I asked walking into the kitchen."Cereals." I hummed as I went to pour some for myself. "Your dad will be back later today." Mom informed me and I grinned. 'I have missed

    Sophia's POV"So?" Although Alexios asked, I felt like he already knew the answer. The small smile playing on his lips, and the mischievousness of his gaze made me curious."Did you hear I and mom's talk?" I asked him. The possibility of him learning us is low, I had left him in the living room and moreover, when I went into mom's room, I had shut the door after myself."Why? Was I meant to hear something?" He is lying. Alexios is an awful liar. When he lies, he avoids eye contact, he would always looks anywhere else but at me, at my eyes, and he tends to stammer a little when he lies.I decided to ignore it, as calling him out on his lie would only further embarrass me since I know he was eavesdropping on our embarrassing conversation. 'Mom really needs to stop.' I thought to myself as I bit my lips.Pushing the embarrassment to the back of my mind, I went forward and held his hand as we both walked to my room. "I doubt I have a suitable pajamas here that you can use." I spoke as

    Sophia's POVIt was already 9 PM and mom had done her rounds with locking up. Since dad traveled, we would always make sure we locked the doors early to avoid any intruder from coming in, but since we were mostly in all day, mom still felt the need to reconfirm that all the doors have been locked.While we sat in the living room watching a series together, we heard a knock. "Who could be at the door at this hour?" Mom asked and I shrugged. I wasn't expecting anyone to visit. It can't be him right? It is late already..."Could it be him?" I asked, and I got my response when we heard his voice."It is me, Alexios. Please open the door." His voice had me sprinting toward the door as I pulled it open to let him inside."Hey baby." He whispered as he looked at me smiling. I hugged him, I felt like he needed a hug. Although he was smiling, he looked unhappy, sad."I am glad to see you alright Alex. I am going to give you kids some privacy but don't go making kids in my absence." Said mom w

    Allison POV "They are here." Announced a pack member as we all watched their cars drive in. 'They are home and nothing else matters.' I thought to myself as I watched their car pull over.Sobs from some pack members could be heard as the corpse of the falling heroes were brought out. Their remains are proof of how ruthless those rogues were. Swallowing, I moved forward to open the car in which my husband and Alpha is in."Hey baby." I greeted him as I took him in. His left leg was wrapped up from above the knee down to his toes. I swallowed back my tears once more."Thank you for coming back to me." I mind linked him. I knew saying that out loud would have made some pack members frown at me. Some had lost families, lost friends, lost their mates, in this fight. The pack has lost some really good members so if they heard my selfish remark, they would definitely not be happy about it, not when they are in such pain."The need to see your lovely face had been the only reason I fought ha

    Sophia's POV The continuous ringing of my phone had woken me up. The thought that the caller might be Alexios had me awake almost immediately. "Hi." I hated how disappointed my voice had sounded."Hey... How are you doing? I called twice earlier but your mom said you were sleeping." Skylar sounded concerned and worried which only made me feel even worse.l for being disappointed that she was my caller."Yeah. I was stressed so I slept it off." I hadn't realized how long I had slept for not until I looked at my phone. How on Earth was I able to sleep for four long hours?!"As long as you are okay." Skylar said, the worry in her voice reducing. "I am okay I promise. So what about you? How are you doing?" I have to be the worst friend in existence. I had totally forgotten to check in on Skylar, all I had in mind all day was Alexios. "I am doing well.
