“Oh, a theme! That does sound exciting.” I say, smiling, but no matter who I talk to or how I occupy myself, the gaping hole left by Sebastian’s rejection forever remains. “Violet, so we will bring out the Bellflowers, wisteria and geraniums, oh I have a lovely stock of hyacinths.” She continues.
“Zaia, I was looking for you.” He says, his voice is deep and husky. I smile smoothly, despite how I feel. “Oh?” “Yes, how are you doing?” “Great.” I reply, seeing how he’s observing me sharply. “Oh! Mrs Watson told me about the ball. It sounds lovely.” That makes him smile, and he nods, cross
ZAIA. I wasn’t able to focus on anything properly after that and asked Mrs Watson if it was alright to leave early as I am not feeling too good. Taking my leave I hurry home, desperate to tell Mom what has happened. Reaching the small two-storey home that we are renting, I unlock the door and ste
I frown. I don’t think it’s the rejection alone. I have seen my results and even sent them to Valerie. She’s surprised that my health hasn’t improved despite it being a while now. There’s something wrong with me and although I haven’t told Mom, my health is deteriorating further. I rub my stomach
Everything I do somehow reminds me of him, but I am certain he has forgotten me, though, happily living his life with Annalise. The setting sun looks blood red, making the apple look even more vibrant. I bite into it when a shadow falls over me. My eyes flash, thinking how didn’t I notice him app
SEBASTIAN. “Get out! Get her out of here, before I have her thrown from the pack!” Mom’s shrieks make me flinch as I slam my foot on the brakes of my car, pulling up outside of the mansion. I get out only to see two suitcases tossed on the ground and a sobbing Annalise standing there as Mom blocks
“The name of the Alpha family of Dark Hollow Falls Pack. A name that not only the world recognises us by, but a name that is associated with our reputation, our traditions and our ethics…” There’s a dangerous edge to his voice. His back is still to me, yet the dark energy that swirls around him is
“Seb I’m so scared. Please stay with me tonight,” she begs, tears splashing down her face. I frown, glancing out at the night sky through the small window that stands open. “Annalise-” “Seb… Why don’t you call me Anna anymore?” She whispers when I slowly untangle her arms from around my neck. “T

“What’s wrong?” I ask sharply, closing the door behind me, surprised when Zaia lifts the trail of my dress so it doesn’t touch the bathroom floor. Neither of us exchanges a word as we look at Valerie, who is battling with herself. “Oh, I don’t know. Never mind. Let’s get back to our men.” She trie
ADRIANA I watch Atticus take a glass of wine and down it in one go as I walk off with Zade and can’t help but snicker. Sebastian’s kids walk over to him and I feel something oddly… I don’t know, just something when he kneels down and compliments Kaia before he smiles at the other three. He’ll mak
ATTICUS I stand up and help her up. As she takes my hand, I feel her slip another Polaroid into my hand. My eyes flash, the curiosity to see it right now as she winks at me. And I can’t resist not wanting to wait. With a swift glance around, I switch her to my other side, placing my hand on her wai
Her skin shimmers when the light hits it and draws my attention to her enticing cleavage. She’s wearing a large choker necklace, one that looks like a sexy collar and it has a large A on it, and I know it doesn't stand for Adriana but Atticus. She's wearing large earrings which match the necklace.
ATTICUS “Finally,” Sebastian says from behind me as Patrick helps me into my jacket. I smirk as I fix it, looking at my reflection. I’m wearing a sage grey suit with a white shirt that I’ve left open without a tie as she will mark me tonight, and I don’t want to make it harder for her to access. “
He smiles faintly. “You really have fallen into the Luna role so perfectly. Look at you fixing my mistakes.” I smirk. “Or being devious, you are too truthful. I’ll text Valerie,” I say, reaching for my phone. “Are you certain about this?” he asks quietly, placing a hand over mine. “I am,” I answ
ADRIANA It’s been a week since I arrived here and I already feel at home, although at times I feel a little overwhelmed by the luxuries I am given. Atticus is indeed wealthy. He’s a businessman on top of being an alpha and even with meetings, training, pack stuff to do and everything else in betwe
