Zev’s pov "No, because it’s not fair. Something inside of her is broken, and you’re making it worse. We all feel it. She needs help. Either her parents abused her or someone else, but there is something not right about her pack or family.” I told Raiden. Raiden shrugged, “that doesn’t mean you can’t date her.” I sighed, rubbing my hands through my curls, even though I knew it would mess them up. “She doesn’t need a boyfriend. She needs friends. Look, I know this started off as some weird game between us. You tried to make me jealous or something, and I let you. But she deserves better, man. You know it. Somehow we have both grown to care for her.” “As a friend.” Raiden asked with a tone that said he didn’t believe me. He didn’t believe I could be just friends with Atalanta? Well, he’s the one who showed everyone how he really felt on the dance floor yesterday. “A friend you find attractive enough to kiss on the neck and rub yourself against on the dancefloor. And she didn’t
Atalanta’s pov What was I supposed to do now that I knew they were only friends with me out of pity? Should I just tell General Sweets everything I know about them? Out of some kind of revenge? Because that doesn’t feel right. Even if it’s out of pity, these three people have done more for me than anyone has before. They see me. Not every part of me, but the one thing I’ve tried to hide. The one thing nobody ever seemed to care about. They see how much I’m hurting. And it kills me to know that to them, it's so easily visible. Does everyone see it? Did my family break me? Turn me into something broken and weak, or was I born that way? What did General Sweets call me? A damsel in distress? Do men find that attractive? Someone weak and fragile. Someone who needs help. “Are you nervous about training?” Suzie asked me, and I didn’t feel like lying. "Yes.” How could I not be nervous? Not only was I really confused about Raiden’s feelings for me. He seemed to find me attractive, whi
Hi, I'm once again waiting for my editor to lock my chapters. So I won't be posting more chapters until she does. As some of you know, my lack of motivation and sporadic updating has been partly to blame by the current situation. My readers have gone down, and it's been more difficult to get a contract for new stories or to get a reply back within a reasonable time. I will try to continue writing and then post them all at once if possible. Thank you for your support, and I hope it doesn't take long. And thank you to my kind readers who've reached out to let me know the story is still not locked. love, Naomi p.s this won't affect the updates for my other story.
Raiden’s povAs much as I thought I needed to be mean, it was impossible to keep it going. Not when I saw how much it was hurting our little mouse. Especially since she has seemed sad all day.Zev was right; I was trying to push Atalanta away, but in the process, I was doing more harm than good. It couldn’t end with me and her miles apart and her left in pieces.She’s fragile.Not just her body, but her mind too.Her body I can help fix, her mind... Yeah, that’s above my paygrade. All I can do is not make things worse.So, instead, I was civil. Which was difficult because every time she was near me, I wanted to touch her. Wanted to run my fingers through her hair and pull softly to see what kind of effect it had on her.I was doing so well. So well…Until I smelled her. Goddess. The steam of the shower made the scent of her arousal that much stronger.Was it because of me? Did I have the same effect on her as she did on me?“Shit!” I yelled out, my dick as hard as a bat. All I wanted w
Atalanta’s pov“These are the guest rooms. Alpha Albert wanted nothing but the best for you, all.” It was clear this was all meant for Raiden, because Alpha Albert didn’t seem to care for me or Zev.I could understand why he wouldn’t like me, but Zev had done nothing wrong.We all got our own rooms, something I did not expect. I thought I’d be rooming with Suzie here too, but it was dumb of me to think that.“Dump your stuff, and then we'll go down for lunch,” Suzie ordered before going to her own room.“I’ll take the one on the left; you’re next to me and Zev; you can take the one opposite our little mouse,” Raiden said to me and Zev.I nodded and headed inside, ready to unpack.Thanks to my birthday presents, I actually had some nice outfits to bring.But the first things I unpacked weren’t my clothes, but the letters I had received all week. We had started placing the letters in a less obvious place; now we hide them inside a book in the back of the library.We had been writing each
ZevWith every outfit, Atalanta seemed to gain some confidence. She started off with her eyes peeled to the floor, but the more compliments we gave her, the more she began to lift her head. She started looking at herself in the mirror and trying to decide if she liked the clothes.I don’t think she ever had a choice in what she was able to wear. Which is crazy, right?Or maybe it just didn’t interest her before?“That’s really cute, Lana. Let’s buy that.” Suzie spoke, while Raiden and I nodded in agreement.Raiden and Lana took turns showing off their outfits, although Suzie had picked out a lot more clothes than Raiden had.While I did my best to show enthiasm, my mind was elsewhere.Every day for a week, I had been able to write about my feelings, and every day I had gotten a reply. Writing letters to my new penpal had made me stop writing my mom, which had filled me with a guilt I didn’t expect.Would she look down from the moon and feel disappointed? Or was she happy I was finally
Atalanta’s povAlthough I don’t consider myself smart and I don’t know much about the world, there are things I’ve heard and seen growing up.Seeing my brother getting ready to go swimming. Him talking to our parents about learning to swim and seeing pictures of people swimming in the few text books I got when mom homeschooled me.And I also know that I have never swum.But it didn’t click until we were actually there, and I saw all the people wearing their bikinis and swimming trunks, jumping into the large pool.Swimming is a lot different than I thought it was.Mostly, the diving and jumping were different. They made themselves into a ball, splashing water everywhere.One thing I did realize soon enough was that it was better that I didn’t get into the pool. I was already ruining Zev and Raiden’s night by having them babysit me.Since I’m not good at most things, I’m pretty sure swimming won’t be any different.Thankfully, Raiden's stomach pulled him towards the barbeque, and he pul
Raiden’s povThis girl… This little mouse that suddenly grew balls and wanted to jump in the pool, say whatever she thought and straddled my lap, giving me the biggest tent in my swimming trunks I ever had.As she’s sitting underneath my arm, trying to hide her embarrassment, I’m replaying the hour or so she spent high as a kite.When Zev and the little mouse accidentally drank belladonna, I tried to act calm. Secretly, I was already plotting the death of the guy who served us the drink without a fair warning.Or maybe I wouldn’t kill him, I’d just drug him and then throw him in the pool with weights tied to his body so he could experience what Atalanta had.It was Zevm I was worried about most. If he started to hallucinate, what would he see? His mom?Or would he be reliving the worst possible night of his life, unable to stop it?While Zev didn’t voice his worries out loud, I knew what he was thinking.My loyalties had always been with Zev, but tonight I had to choose. And for some r
