Aubrey's POV

The next few weeks had been hell without hearing from Mr. Knight, and I didn't know that I was being cranky until Alexis called me out. " Why do you look like a cat pissed in your tea?" She attacked me after school one afternoon.

" Really, now?" I replied and zipped my bag shut, before standing, and looking at carrying my bottle of water.

" Yeah, this has gone on for too long. What's actually going on?" She asked, as we went out of the door, " And don't give your usual excuse of being fine, which we both know is total bullshit."She said.

" Wow, it's good to know that you have already concluded. Pray tell me what you think is wrong with me." I replied harshly.

Then she waved her hand, " You see this bitch face you are carrying about, it doesn't suit you. Even Xander a complaining about it."

I rolled my eyes, " It's good to know that the both of you have been gossiping about me." I replied sarcastically.

Alexis gave me a pointed look, " Are you being serious right no

    Aubrey's POV My decision to avoid Mr. Knight had to take the backseat because of Ellie's condition as my heart raced with fear and dread. Thinking of the possibilities that came with Ellie being in a coma, what it would mean to Mr. Knight. If I, who was just a friend could feel so shattered, I could imagine how he felt. It must be so heartbreaking watching his child fighting for her life, without a promise of return. With that thought, I texted my boss and lied that my mother had a stroke, so I wouldn't be able to come to work. My movement was frantic as I stuffed some clothes into a duffel bag. Skipping classes for a few days wouldn't hurt. I made a mental reminder to inform Alexis of my absence for a few days. Arriving at the hospital seemed harder than I thought as the universe wanted to frustrate my efforts. There was heavy traffic on the highway. I was fidgeting so badly that the cab driver had to ask me what was wrong with me. " I'm fine." I lied and hid my shaky fingers be

    Aubrey's POV A little groan woke me up at midnight and I opened my eyes. Mr. Knight was rubbing his neck slowly, as his eyes closed in pain. He must have cramps from sitting in that position for long. The room was dimly lit and I reached for my phone beside me. Three-thirty four a.m. The bedsheets creased when I rose, and he turned. "You are awake." He said and watched me approach him.I nodded and pretended to yawn. This was a method to check my breath. I wouldn't want a situation whereby I would kill someone's father with morning breath. It was still fresh. " Yeah." He returned to typing away on his laptop, " You look tired." I commented and he looked up at me. " Yeah." He replied. I noticed a bandage wrapped around his fist and my eyes widened in alarm. "Did you get into a fight?" I inquired.He looked at me before taking a glance at his hand, "Oh, this. I scraped my hand." He replied. His excuse didn't sound genuine enough, " Are you sure about that?" I asked. He shrugged

    Aubrey's POV A damp cloth hit my forehead and I woke up. The events of last night came crashing down on me. "How are you feeling?" Mr. Knight asked me. I was dumbfounded at the turnout of last night's events. I found it hard to move past it. " Get away from me," I said.A hurtful look appeared on his face briefly before he moved back. I rose and sat on the bed. I had to leave this place immediately. If he was a werewolf, then Ellie must be one too right? I sighed. " What is Ellie?" I asked.His expression confirmed my thoughts, " Don't bother answering that question. Where is Ellie?" I asked when I noticed that the bed was empty. " She's been transferred to the ICU." He replied and looked at me when I attempted to rise. He looked like he wanted to come closer to me but stopped himself. " You are burning up." He replied. " I'm leaving," I replied and I groaned in pain when I rose from the bed. " You are not going out there." I shot him a dangerous look. Was he kidding? " Am I a p

    Aubrey's POV " Brace yourself." Mr. Knight said when the engine grunted, a loud cranking sound echoed in the car as he crashed it against the gate. Nothing prepared me for the loud sound. The car jerked for a few minutes before knocking down. " How are you doing?" He asked when he forced my door handle open." I'm great, I guess," I replied as he picked me up in his hands again as if I weighed nothing. " How are you doing?" I replied. " I'm good." He merely grunted and walked towards the clearing. It seemed like a long journey. I tapped his arm slowly, "I can walk." I said. I was considering his arms, he had been fighting and carrying me. I know that he was probably strong but that didn't mean that we should belittle the power of rest. " You don't weigh much." He retorted and kept on walking. Many thoughts came to my mind like if he was the only survivor among his people. " Did you come alone?" " No, I lost some pack members." By pack members, he meant those who were like him,

    Aubrey's POV Rejecting his offer turned out to be a big deal as he was silent throughout the day. Apparently, Alphas had a sense of ego when they provided for their mates. In this case, i had made my stance clear but it seemed like he was not getting it. " I need to take this call." He informed me and walked out of the ward, which was a great relief because then could I breathe and reflect on everything that's been happening I called Alexis who picked up almost immediately, " Hey, babe. You went off the radar." She replied in an accusing tone." I'm sorry, I was just caught up with some things. What's up? Any news in school?" I asked. " Nah, I think next week is lecture-free week. I'll be coming over to your house." She informed me." I don't know when I will be returning, my friend hasn't woken up," I replied. Also, with everything that's been happening, that was a very bad choice."Oh my god, I am such a bad person. It skipped my mind. How is she doing?" Alexis asked." I don't

    Aubrey's POV Mr. Knight drew me closer to himself in a hug as it took a lot from me not to shudder in repulse when I remembered that a half beast was touching me. " Why are you jealous of your brother?" " You were very comfortable around him." He didn't bother to deny it. " This is ridiculous. Have you always been like this?" I asked as he patted my head slowly. I sniffed his cologne and sighed. This would have worked out if only he didn't have that genetic disease. " What did that man by imprint?" I asked. He wouldn't tell me anything. " That's like a mark. Only that it's deeper than a physical mark. I don't want to use a term you might find offensive. It's like a brand. Every wolf probably knows that you are my mate by now."I escaped his arms. " This is worse than the bite mark!" I exclaimed. This was like Jacob on Bella's baby in Twilight! Oh my goodness. " Do I smell like you?"He scratched his head, " Kinda." My paranoia skyrocketed and I looked around. " You've ruined my

    Aubrey's POV "What the hell was that?" Alexis asked as we walked into my apartment. I could see the question marks in her eyes but she did well not to ask any further questions.I walked into my room and picked up my phone. This wasn't to be taken lightly. " Hello, I just received a letter," I informed Mr. Knight. " Hey, Calm down. I can sense your panic. Tell me what's wrong." He said, and I narrated the incident to him. "Who's there with you?" He asked. I wondered how he knew that I wasn't alone. " Alexis," I replied in a low tone. Her head shot up, at the mention of her name.He sighed. " I'll get back to you in a few minutes. Just be calm and don't out us. I would have come myself but I am required to be somewhere else." He said. I wondered how that was supposed to calm me down right now. I walked into the bathroom. " You said you had guards watching me. That was the semblance of hope I had that my life was going to be somewhat safe. It is not up to twelve hours and I've rece

    Aubrey's POVI rose instantly and walked to the door to see for myself. I opened the door and saw my sister standing with a large suitcase in hand. She didn't even come for a short visit. " Amber, what are you doing here?" I asked her. " I came to see you. Are you busy?" She asked, while poking her head to see the room.She knew that I couldn't send her away. My eyes caught a movement in the distance, it could be one of those bad wolves. I couldn't send her into their arms. I shook my head at the negative thoughts that ran through my mind. " Come in," I replied, and she dragged her suitcase in. I bolted the door behind her. " Good evening, you must be Amber, my name is Alexis, Aubrey's friend," Alexis said cheerfully easing the awkwardness in the room. Surprise flitted on my sister's face and I knew what she was thinking. So I spoke about her."It's nice to meet you, Alexis." My sister replied with a small smile that didn't reach her eyes. Alexis snuck a glance at me, " I'll get

    Aubrey's POV" Let me check this out." I told Ellie whose gaze bored into mine. Then I walked towards the garden. I stood in front of Amber, eyeing her suspiciously.“What do you want?” I asked her, my gaze was intent on her and I made sure to keep my distance.“Not here, can we go for a stroll?” she askedI kept quiet, I didn't want to be alone with her and I was very reluctant to go on a stroll with her. I couldn't trust her.“Please,” she said,“We are in a public place if you are worried about being alone with me.” She said, with a helpless smile on her face.I sighed, I really did not want to go with her, but I had to hear what she had to say. Reluctantly, I decided to follow her." Have a seat." She ushered but I refused, and she rolled her eyes, " Really, Aubrey? Do you really think I am here to harm you?" She asked and we sat down by a bench.I looked around a bit, scanning the surroundings to make sure that this place was public enough. As if reading my mind, Amber chuckled,

    Aubrey's POVThree Weeks Later. "Wake up Aubrey, aren't you going to school today?"I groaned, I was not having class until later in the afternoon, unless... Did I really sleep for that long?" Hey," I whispered when I opened my eyes and saw Mr. Knight staring at me with laughter in his eyes." It's noon." I stretched my hands. I was thoroughly plowed, in a good way though, the sheets fell from my body and I picked it up immediately." Are you still painfully shy?" He asked and I gave him a look. Of course, I was still shy, " You weren't shy last night." He teased and I felt my face grow hot indicating that I was highly embarrassed."Don't remind me." " You were begging for more. I can still remember you saying, harder! harder!" He mimicked my voice." I don't sound like that." He shrugged, " Well, that was what I heard, It's cute though." He said and I stared at him." Yeah, yeah, you'd do anything to get into my pants." He grinned widely, " Is it working?" He wiggled his eyebro

He said while placing a hand on his chest to calm his beating heart." Huh?"" It's a mark, baby, it means that you're mine forever." He chuckled when he saw my countenance. My eyes widened in horror. He was very happy saying it." What if I don't want to be tied to you, Mr. Knight?" I feigned annoyance and he chuckled as he rose to his feet and walked towards me." I know that's a lie. One of the proudest things I own is your heart." He said smugly and drew me closer to his body, more tingles ran through my body as I stared at him, he spoke with utmost confidence. " You are really full of yourself mister." I said, not bothering to deny the obvious fact. " Aren't you scared that I might leave you one of these days?" I said and he growled loudly.The sound didn't scare me anymore. It was an empty threat but he didn't have to know. What's a little love

    Aubrey's POV"Yes, she was. But...she had a special gift, I think your sister inherited it." He replied." What's the gift?" I asked him. if I had known the gift, maybe I could understand what was going on with Amber." To see visions. Do you have them?" She asked and I shook my head. I had never had flashes, that was what they were called right? " I think you inherited your father's trait then because that's the only explanation I can give." " Okay," I replied, I still had doubts in my mind, " are you sure that I am completely human, and there's no mutation lurking in me?" I asked. " I would have known since you were little." He answered and I stared at him softly. " What's the way forward?" I asked.He stared at me in confusion as he tried to understand what I was talking about. " I mean, now that the burial is out of the way and whatnot, what's the next step? What plans do you have for me?" " What would you like to do?" " I would like to return to college, I know it's not safe

I guess it's in the open now." He said and I stared at him, he didn't seem ashamed one bit, and I found it admirable.He heaved a deep sigh which spoke volumes, and rubbed his face to get rid of the tiredness that sat in his eyes.I couldn't imagine how he was feeling, bottling all of that up for so long. My feet trudged toward him, he opened his arms widely and I walked into him, his large arms enclosing me in his warmth. I rested slowly on his chest and shook my head. How was it possible that he was hurting deeply and still wanted to protect me? These were the little things that comforted me and made me know that he loved me very much, "I hope you're doing fine? It'll soon be over." He said.I shook my head, " Sometimes, I wonder if I am not making a big mistake." I began, I was a firm believer of speaking the

    Aubrey's POVA week later,"We are gathered at the burial of our beloved brother, friend, father, son, colleague to usher him into the great beyond today. We wish that the circumstances were different but we cannot help it." The priest said. The air was solemn and Mr. Knight rubbed my back. I was breathing hard seeing George's body in the sand, the only thought that came to my mind. He was killed because of me. I understood that this was a dogged arena and it got me thinking. Would things have been different, if he had exercised some patience? I didn't want to die too, but why couldn't we just have it all? Helen's eyes dug into my flesh like daggers and I didn't blame her for a second, a lot of us would have done the same. Hell, I would be more angry if it was my sister who was killed indiscriminately because of a so-called mate, so I didn't blame her one bit. " May the family step forward?" The priest said and Mr. Knight, Helen, Josh, Meg, and Ellie stepped forward.Mr. Knight si

How can you even say that?" She scoffed, " I'm challenging you, what will you do? Beat me up? Tie me up? Tell me what exactly." She spat again.I could see his fur ruffling, " Tell your sister to get the fuck out of my house." He stated, his muscles expanded in the white shirt and I knew that he was stopping himself from doing something stupid. When I didn't move, he growled and I jumped into action. I pulled my sister out of the house and she stared at me, "What are you doing?" " Can't you see the way he's controlling you? You jumped at his growl, who the hell scares his girlfriend? He wants to turn you into a sex slave." She exclaimed and I sighed. He didn't tolerate any slander against me regardless of who it was coming from so I wasn't also going to tolerate Amber speaking to him in that way. "Listen

If I was here that means that I wasn't dead right?As if he heard my sound, he turned and a sigh of relief escaped his lips and I waited to see what he would do. " Aurora?" He called as if he was very surprised to see me, as he walked closer to me.He hugged me and I felt pain in my neck as he squeezed it hard, I wasn't expecting him to hug me tight. My bones ached causing me to wonder what happened to me. " What happened to me?" I asked and he looked at me, " Was I shot?" I inquired again. That was the last thing I remembered but I wasn't bleeding so I knew that I probably escaped. "No, you weren't."He replied, but you passed out due to the shock from the attack. " The attacker was apprehended." He raised his brows upwards, "Thankfully," He replied, " I am so glad that you are awake. goodness! when I saw you fall, a part of me died a brutal death." He said.

We went to the hospital the next morning, with I thinking about all the things that could go wrong. What if there was a mistake?" Aubrey, are you here?" He touched my arm.Ellie writhed in pain as we went on, and I stroked her head instinctively, my prayer was that there was a solution for her. She shouldn't lose both babies. We pulled up in the parking lot of the hospital and alighted from the car.. people stared at us like we were royalty. I didn't blame them though because we came in a very expensive car. It was a human hospital, I had learned how to tell the difference, I suggested that the second opinion come from here. Meg had offered to follow us but I refused, she had not gotten back to full shape."Good morning, Mr. Knight?" The doctor said. " It's a pleas
