~Tristan~ “What the hell did you do?” My fists were balled waiting for him to utter anything that would make me more enraged. “Calm down Tristan, just hear me out first” he remained calm and the f**k I was only holding back because of the respect I had for him. Amongst all my men he was specifically chosen for this position for a reason. He wasn’t the best social person for a position like this but anyone could smell his potentials a mile away as he was always the get the job done person. I could only take so little things from anyone and he was luckily part of that short list. “I really don’t want to hear it or I swear I would lock you down with my knees and drive my fists continuously into your face till you can never frown ever again.” I really did want to believe that what I heard wasn’t true and that it was all a joke. I was already fighting with my thoughts about what I told Hazel and now this. My insides were literally burning with flames glitching, beam
~Asher~ “So what are you going to do?” Ross voice interrupts my thinking earning a scowl from me. He kept on asking the same question for the past two days, and still got no response or reaction from me. I had a lot of thinking to do and anything that would help me get Jaden to acknowledge me would be much appreciated. “You shouldn’t be asking the questions Ross, you should be giving answers to it.” I didn’t bother looking his way as I wasn’t in the mood to take note of his expression. “Yeah,disadvantages of taking a major decision without informing people he calls his men.” His murmuring and cheesy talk could be clearly heard and I turned to face him with a scorn. “Really?” “Sorry Alpha” he reads the air and maintains his stance. This wasn’t the tone at all to call me in on what I did in the past. I ignore his statements as I was in no mood for these talks. I was busy trying to come up with what I could do that would make Jaden warm up to me.
~Asher~I got another chance and unlike before, I was prepared and ready to be ignored as Hazel enlightened me way ahead when she opened the door for me to come in. If he doesn’t want to hear anything concerning me then how were we supposed to talk or even hold a conversation? I stood outside his door, knocked lightly on it before entering. I already got permission from Hazel to enter as Jaden would definitely make out guesses and pick out who it was knocking and withdraw me access from entering. I wasn’t going to do that and miss any chance I got as I couldn’t go against his wishes since I was trying to prove a point about him making his own choices about me. I really should be grateful for Hazel this period. I thought I would have more issues trying to convince her to give me a chance but she didn’t have an issue with it and was really hoping I could do something about it. Her warnings were clear and I promised her that I was going to handle it and fix it as long
~Hazel~ I counted every single second that passed by as I was waiting to hear any sound of anything at all from the room that meant they were conversing but none came out. I know he couldn’t get Jaden to talk all at once since he could be real stubborn when he wanted to be. “I’m really surprised you allowed him to enter your home again and it didn’t just stop there. Remember how you wanted him miles away from you and Jaden? and now he’s sitting in there all alone with your son.” There wasn’t a need to repeat it all out to me but she did anyway with a lazy smirk. “You don’t have to point it out to me at every chance, you know?” There wasn’t anything I could do about it. I didn’t want to bring the issue of, if the hospital never happened thing then all this wouldn’t have happened in the first place but it wasn’t really necessary as it would change the course of our discussion and what seemed lighthearted could turn to a think cloud of gloominess and both of us woul
~Asher~ “It’s his choice, I can’t do anything about it.” I tried repeating in my head as I was about going nuts with the last image of Jaden running happily to meet with Tristan. There was nothing as cold and hurtful as that, I couldn’t do anything but just looked and passed by like it wasn’t a big deal. It was a big deal and now I was clearly getting my own taste of bitter rejection. I F**king have myself to blame no matter what I really had In mind. Days turned into a week and I still haven’t gotten a response from Hazel. They were now in control as it was their decision to give me a chance or withhold it. This was the only way I could get to talk with Jaden, since going over there and sitting in his room doesn’t look like it would yield any change. And I had a feeling he was going to come up with a way to keep me out once he found out it was going to become a regular. “Alpha?” He knocked lightly on the door before coming in with all smiles. “Leo, h
~Asher~ I finally came out of the office in a hurry, I couldn’t miss this or be late either. She’s giving me a week and we didn’t need to come back on time meaning I could take him out. “You’re driving” I ordered in a hurry, tossing the keys to Ross as he fell behind me trying not so hard to keep up with my pace. Even if It was just the opportunity staring up at me and not amounting to any changes I was fine with it as long as I get to meet him as going to meet Jaden in a hurry wouldn’t guarantee anything yet. A week was a lot and I’ve had enough time to think of what to say to him or do. I also can not tell him about getting a new heart. I can tell he was way too smart for that and would think that I was only telling him that because I wanted him to open up to him. “Where are we going?” He finally asks as he stepped on the gas after telling him to drive the fastest he can. “Where else do you think could get me this worked up and in a hurry?” “Oh th
~Asher ~ That he was thrown aback and with the look on his face right now I knew there wasn’t going to be ever any argument or a doubting Thomas as my beta. “How could you tell?” Jaden was clearly backing us and fairly a distance away. I looked up at him as I tried to mask my happy face with a confused one. Don’t tell me he could recognize my back anywhere too. Now who’s beta of the year? “I was looking directly at his face before the chubby one there came and he suddenly backed us before you turned to check.” “Is that really possible? How are you standing here and there at the same time?” He looked frozen where he was as he refused to remove his eyes from Jaden’s back. I just hope no one notices and comes to question us because he was making us look very suspicious with his eyes fixed on a child in a school full of lycans teachers where they could easily and quickly point us out. Wait… that’s true. We’ve been here for quite a while and no one has come to po
~Hazel~ “How are we really going to plan a party without him knowing? I mean he’s very observant, we’ve never done one without him finding out just in time.” All I could hear were complaints about how observant Jaden was and they weren’t lies. It was a good thing but in most cases for us and in other cases it wasn’t so good as we’ve never been able to successfully pull off a surprise party for him before without him finding out just in time. “Don’t worry about it, I’m so sure that it's going to work out this time around and we’ll all be surprised.” I was putting all my hope on Asher and he better not fail me. We didn’t actually need the whole week to plan a surprise but to catch him by surprise so he wouldn’t suspect a thing. With Asher with him all day trying to mend a relationship that might take weeks or forever, it was just the perfect distraction as all his mind would think of was how he didn’t want Asher around. I wanted him to sort whatever it was
~Alpha Asher~ “They are prepared and ready?” This was a one time thing and we could not let anything go wrong about it. “Yes alpha, I just heard back from Kade and they should be here on their way tomorrow. “Nothing should go wrong about this plan or we’ll never be able to find out who the real culprit is.” The worry etched on my face wa becoming a normal due to stress, deprivation and lord more. This was a serious issue on ground and even as it looked actually like nothing, it was slowly eating his way to the heart of werewolves race. It was a great threat and easy means to curb it was never going to be an option right now. “You still think someone among us is the culprit?” Ross asked, real worried as he still found a bit hard to believe. “Even as hard as it may seem to believe, it’s the outright truth and I know it so well.” I gave him my quick reply as we decided not to talk about it anywhere here as apparently in a war ground, the walls
~Lily~ The image of last night's ordeal came flashing mad somehow I could feel my cheeks heat up with pink hues. I woke up and was just staring at him. It took a while to get out of his arms that he wrapped all around me and then without thinking it through I turned to face him. I was flooded with different kinds of emotions that I couldn’t put a name on it. The only thing that made sense right now was to stay right there and stare straight at his face. He was officially my first in everything that he’s done in days. I wasn’t too knowledgeable in these things but I wasn’t at ignorant to know that he made me c*m several times last night that I lost count. And with every strength that I had gone, I fell into his arms as I continued moving with so much vigour like he couldn’t get enough. I could still feel his breath on my neck, when his hands finally made contacts with my br**sts. The pinching, the squeezing and oh my, my head was already spinning a
~Lily~ It was becoming a simple reality as I stood in his room with my back facing the door. I tried real quick to catch my breath as the images were looking very vivid. It was dark in here and yes I did notice that the paintings were nowhere in his room when I was here earlier. That was the very least of my problems as I was head on facing the bed, rethinking what I just did. “Good thing, I like the light out too.” I could hear him utter very clearly in his light hearted tone. His voice resounded like a calm river, with its currently but more like it was currently at sleep for a while. Wait? Please tell me I didn’t just tell him I sleep with the light on. ‘Oh yes you did. And you said it so boldly like you were ready for anything tonight.” Raya spoke out not so calmly as I could see that I wasn’t the only fidgeting right now. I wanted anyone to tell me just know that I didn’t indirectly tell him I was cool with whatever would happen tonight. “D
~Lily~ “Did you have a nice sleep or are you still busy with my mom?” His voice swept in like he’d been waiting for ages. I didn’t reply immediately as his voice was the first thing I heard after sleeping for only god knows how long. And the mention of how he personalised his mom strangely sounded not so annoying like it always used to be. “Should go on helping her again soon enough.” My reply came like it wasn’t an issue talking to him in my head. Like I never used to have issues with him hanging in there in my head without permission. “Ohh really? You mind telling me all about this help that only you can offer, or can Kade come lend a helping hand?” He sounded so aware of everything being a complete facade. And with the sound of things, he just wanted to flow along. I took a second to really wrap my head around it as the fact that it was me having a conversation with Jaden through the mindlink and there have been no shouting and disagreement. “
~Lily~ I didn’t let the reminder that it's soon going to be my birthday get to me for long in my head as it drove different signals to me. I was supposed to be up and ready to leave according to what i had planned with Raya. Nothing was eventually stopping me and this was entirely what I was looking forward to but suddenly the urge to run away was slowly fading away. Like I could literally feel it and I’ll be deceiving myself if I said that was exactly what I wanted right now. Hate? Yes I still hate him and I also still wanted to find out why I could feel his sincerity through those words he uttered to me. You can pretend and fake sincerity but you can never fake it so badly that the other person listening doesn’t feel it to know if you are lying or not. “Oh my, thank goodness you are fine.” Her voice brought me completely out of it as I stared into complete emptiness. I must have stayed still for so long, thinking and drowning myself that I didn’t real
~Lily~ “Are you okay baby?” My mom didn’t waste time and went all out with examining my body and her eyes showing too much concern right now like she just saved me from the lion's den. “I’m fine mom, why are you so worked up?” I found myself asking after removing the hand I placed aimlessly on my forehead, that depicted my lack of understanding what was going on. I wanted to go on and ask all the questions in my head but I held back and swallowed all the words at the tip of my tongue, knowing I should be grateful right now that I got out. “Definitely not what I heard so I have to double check.” She didn’t agree with me and still continued. She changed tactics this time around, making it seem all funny and held back my laughter, trying to link one and two together. “Molly got to you?” I asked the question without even thinking twice about it. I already even concluded that it got to be that or nothing else. And while her actions were funny to me, holding back was gettin
~Kade~ “I just need to speak to him for a minute, it’s very important.” She kept on begging and pleading with her eyes as she didn’t dare go all touchy with me. “He’s busy. If it’s so important you can relate it to me and then I’ll surely let him know.” I faced with all seriousness so she could back off. I didn’t need a soothsayer to tell me anything before knowing that she was outright lying to my face and making up excuses just to meet Jaden. I guess keen eyes can be awarded to me after walking in the shadow of Jaden and watching his back. I knew everyone that had potentials of being a pest and had to keep details and tabs on them just in case. “I can’t tell it to you, I need to pass this on myself.” She said still speaking so softly that it was irritating to listen to her speak. I’m not sure it was her voice that was making me lose my patience. It had to be the very fact that I still remembered clearly what she had done to my future Luna. Yes
~Lily~ This was all looking extremely far from all the tricks we went round with or used to go round with. Now it was looking so scary and trying to put up a face or pretend my way through this wasn’t what I wanted to do. It was meant to be the end point as I opened my mouth and spilled all that I should, securing myself from whatever he had planned. He went calm, his eyes lowered, staring and holding mine in place. It wasn’t too surprising anymore since it had become a norm for days now. The words he spoke next also kept me quiet as I listened with utmost interest since it all revolved around me. He explained himself, saying things I thought I’ll never hear him ever say. ‘The almighty Jaden was apologising to us?’ I asked Raya as we found it so unbelievable but that thing in the depth of us could witness with him that he was being sincere. You could sense and see it with the way his eyes moved and looked so soft and gentle even they gazed directly at
~Jaden~ “Do you need anything?” I asked her, watching closely as I managed to make her sit on my bed with my different sets of portraits pushed to one side of the room. I didn’t really think about what to do aside from sticking my hands all over her body and places where she’ll definitely not be in support of. “Anything that’ll keep me alive would be fine.” She uttered with so much anger in her voice that I held back the urge to laugh at how cute she looked even when she tried to frown. I pretty much was blind and too carried away by pain and past events that I let it cloud my emotions and even my person. It was going to be hard to actually prove anything to her but I’ll try my best to make it quicker as I want her always with me. “Got that. Anything else you’ll need or you want to try to be a more specific lollipop?” I tried my luck one more time with her. “Yeah, how about your head on a platter and you stop calling me that.” She snapped with her head bringing out
