~Lily~ I stood there for the longest minutes ever, watching everyone that came right after me storm right in like it was normal. My gaze followed their every movement, watching clearly the difference he was talking about. He was outright punishing me and did nothing to hide that fact. He could be many things at an instant but at this minute it shouldn’t really kill him to be a little fair right now. It was much better under Tyler’s watch as we both remained quiet, avoiding looking at each other directly. He was doing his duties acting like a perfect disciple of Jaden, asking him questions about the fairness of his master’s actions won’t be necessary as I could already guess I won’t be getting any reply. My eyes flickered as they looked straight at where Jaden stood and back to the entrance gate and then my eyes meet her disturbing own. Whatever it was she didn’t want to hide it, showing it so greatly on her face as she looked at me with a scornful look. Thinking hard
~Lily~I already gave up by the time we got to the stairs leading to his office. I let him do his thing as my hands were already hurting so bad from the dragging. And mom wasn’t also in sight to help me from this bully. I should have screamed out her name, ignoring his warnings not to try anything funny and stupid. “Stand still and don’t move an inch.” His orders were clear as his chin was stiff and stern giving his orders like he was talking to a robot. I rolled my eyes, making sure to hide it from him as I wanted out of here pretty fast and I know fully well that doing anything that would annoy him and prolong my stay here, should be clearly avoided. He sat comfortably in his seat, completely different from the last time I was here. No stress visible in his eyes, no …. ‘Can’t we just erase that memory from our head?’ I could hear myself stuttering in my head. Who the h*ll stutters in their head? ‘We just have to cooperate and get ourselves out of t
~Lily~ “What… what are you doing?..”. The words sputtered out of my lips as I went all frozen on his laps. “Just stay here. A few more minutes and you can join them to train.” He muttered with those words more like a muffled sound as he held me in place, talking and sounding very low with his face moving slowly in my hair. I didn’t know what made me still and what prevented me from protesting as I didn’t move a bit. I was more than confused and I didn’t know what to do, lost on what to do in my next line of action. “Why are you doing this?” My voice faltered, sounding the exact way I was feeling as I wasn’t in any way comfortable with this. I didn’t want to feel anything or think anything as the pictures came rolling in, adding this one to the collection. That old weird tingling feeling crawling my skin and taking more effect from my insides. He didn’t say anything and just left his face there, clearly taking the punishment to another level as there i
~Lily~ I got out, walking straight out and not turning to look back at any point. This was crazy and while I was trying my best to understand it, they were now like pictures dancing in my head, screaming words I can not understand. Hell, I don’t even want to understand what happened just now. ‘What happened just now?’ Raya finally asked, getting a group of herself. ‘I should be asking you that. I felt numb and didn’t find my strength to fight back.’ “It felt wrong but I couldn’t stop him. It felt uncomfortable and spelt out wrong for me but I really just wanted to sit and find out what’s really going to happen.” I finally spit it out to Raya as I held that in. ‘I’m sorry Lily, it felt weird but calm and a bit relaxing. I can only see that we should prepare ourselves more if that could really happen.’ I could hear her worries as it wasn’t different from mine. I don’t know what he had up his sleeves but it’s looking like he has the upper hand and we can’t
~Lily~ It was settled, we were going to act like nothing happened here and moved on to the training ground. He didn’t give extra reasons and I know for sure that he wasn’t just passing by. And I relented in asking further since it was definitely going to lead to me talking more about the punishment. Like I quietly read up the air and choose to let it be. We walked back together, my decision made up while doing all I could to hold on to that tiny string that held me together. We got back and quietly blended in with the rest. I avoided that gaze ogling my back as she has been looking at me right from my entrance, obviously she has been waiting for my return. “You want to stand here?” I asked quietly, directing my question at Nova, making my voice sound as light as a feather. I still had to be cautious even though Kade didn’t thankfully react to my entrance or ask any questions. And that forbidden name.. I still really do not want to hear his name. He
~Lily~ “What the hell happened? Didn’t see you till the very end. Are you okay?” She was the very first person to move as she stalked backwards immediately the end of training was announced. “I’m fine.” I answered her. It really was the truth since I didn’t undergo anything severe from what we probably both were expecting. I was looking alright, whatever fear and uncertainty that stained my face before, now gone since I already made a decision. I tried using my eyes to tell her to acknowledge Nova ego was just standing right beside me but she acts like she’s not understanding. “Come on Lee. I was the one that told him to go check on you.” Her face moved about with a lazy frown as she turned to acknowledge him like I wanted before moving back to face me. “Huh but… I thought you were just passing by.” I asked directing my question at Nova as I turned to face him with my voice hinting that I was getting confused. With a quick glance and feeling
~Nova~ “Erhm I’ll like to pass through?” He stood face to face with me like a block. He definitely wasn’t planning on moving with the look he had on right now. “Backwards”. Those were the only words he muttered, his eyes refusing to leave mine, waiting for me to comply. It really wasn’t a big deal owning to the fact that I’m in another’s land where I have to respect those in authority first. And it was supposed to remain a beautiful evening, getting to talk with Lily after so long. We weren’t all alone like i originally wanted but it was worth the while with her even though it had to be shared with Molly. I moved backwards, complying with him so I could go back to my room with her voice still ringing softly in my memory. “Stay rooted and listen carefully.” His voice came out boldly and not pleasant in a hushed whisper. He followed my every steps backward and stood right in front of me, making it clear that he didn’t earlier bump into me. “What?
~Lily~ I didn’t need any alarm to wake me earlier today. It was already a planned day way before I woke up. If I was going to get breakfast with Molly then we were going to get it early. I got up and set, thankfully I didn’t get to see images in my dream that would drive sleep away from my eyes. It was dark and void with a tiny girl's voice weeping. Wasn’t my first time having such dreams, it’s always the same way and exact actions repeating themselves whenever I have it. It wasn’t disturbing like it used to be again and only comes at very few nights. We had time to beat, so I hurried downstairs after texting Molly to meet me outside. We couldn’t allow our mistakes to repeat itself again and spend way longer because I decided to go meet her first in her room. “Had something to eat yet? Or you want more?” Her eyes lit up with raised eyebrows as she asked her questions. Of course she was messing with me, making fun of what happened last to us. A very clear
~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
