~Asher~ I wasn’t in any way expecting her to give in easily to my request. It took absolutely everything in me not to call the hospital straight up since she refused to reply to my message when I knew she had seen them The reminder that they were Tristan’s men left a mark that I was restricted in so many ways and I can’t just barge in like I really wanted to, just to see for myself if they were both fine. These days were hell of a torture and I couldn’t say or do anything but to sit and wait for her reply. I was in no way scared of starting a bloody war because of what I wanted but these times were different. Now I had to consider the life’s that would be at stake if I did that. It was freaking new but I had a son who I was looking forward to meet and the only person standing in between that from happening was Hazel and I can’t do anything about it but to patiently wait for her response. Damn it! I was definitely go to teach her a lesson once I have her back
~Asher~ That’s it, she was coming here today. Hazel was going to come into my pack and I could already imagine having her back and getting to keep her close to me. “Please tell me you won’t do anything stupid with her” his piercing gaze and disturbing voice pushed the pictures I was seeing away as he stood still, standing beside the chair I was sitting on. I was going to sit here and wait for her to come in or wait until I could come up with plans and make some men come around and act a lot busy then I’ll suggest we go to my room to have a more private discussion? The smile on my face sat there perfectly as I was looking for every means to enjoy every single bit of her presence. “You do plan on doing something and I’m guessing it’s way worse than I think.” He had that knowing look in his eyes as he cut me off again. “Can you just leave?!” I tried barking out to sound a lot authoritative but I guess the thoughts in my head didn’t put me in that direction an
~Asher~ “Why didn’t you tell me you were pregnant?” I whispered underneath my breath and took the turn there myself as it secretly hurt that I missed it all. “Would it have changed anything? You looked quite sure of the choices you made.” I watched her hide the pain as her eyes changed colours. The pain was right there and I put it there. “You still should have told me.” I stood up to sit closer to her and I wished at that moment I could take away all the pains she felt. “My pleading and crying weren’t enough for you, so why would news about a pup growing inside of me do anything to change your mind?” “You could as well have had one with Claire.” She murmured staring elsewhere but my face as I was sitting right beside her. I inched closer as my legs touched hers slightly and she didn’t pay any attention to it considering that it was bound to happen since I was sitting this close to her. “I’m sincerely sorry for all the pains I made you go through
~Hazel~ He was right, he would have done something by now if he really wanted to. What was I going to do? He was staring at me closely and Kyra was nudging me to give him a chance with Jaden. It was a chance with Jaden and not with me so I shouldn’t be too wary since he promised not to do anything? Rose’s advice was definitely a bad one, I shouldn’t have come here myself to spell anything out to him. I knew it wasn’t a good one the moment I stepped into the pack. I allowed the strange but friendly air to hit me as I took a ride to the pack house. Nothing changed at all and even as I thought that I had thrown all memories away, everything came back afresh as I passed and watched everything and everyone. ‘This was my home that was taken from me.’ I let it sink in so I could remember my hate for Asher and do just what I had come here to do. The wafting smell of wolves running, with their furs running against each other. I could smell and hear it all from a dist
~Hazel~ He wasn’t giving up as he continued with the messages. I told Rose just how her advice to speak to him directly didn’t go as planned but I held back the details of everything I felt under his gaze. I didn’t know how she was going to react and I hate to say it but it doesn’t look like I've healed from anything. My heart was hurt but it didn’t heal, it didn’t want to stay with the memories of those hurtful years and was choosing the wrong person over and over again. I’ve accepted that I wasn’t in control of my heart since it’s doing exactly what It shouldn’t. I could only take actions and stay away from him at all costs. Jaden was stronger and back on his feet. He took all the rest he needed and could go back to school and do all the fun things as long as he didn’t stress himself out. I busied myself in the bakery as I resumed back after I didn’t have to watch Jaden all the time and was sure he was fine. If it was left to me, I’ll keep him under my wa
~Asher~ What was I going to say to him? Everything now felt so real as I realised I didn’t really have anything in mind to say to him. I don’t know what changed her mind but she finally agreed and sent a text that I could come on Saturday and how I’ll be dead if I tried anything funny with our son. Well her exact words were her son but I’ll need to remind her to start making use of ours from now on but that wasn’t going to be happening today as I didn’t want to jeopardise anything. Was lucky enough to get this opportunity, I wasn’t going to throw it out the door like that. I wanted to do this myself, I didn’t specially prepare anything as I wasn’t sure what to prepare and eventually finalised on coming here like that to say nothing but the truth about how I want him and his mom back leaving only information about the letters out. Sitting in my car parked right outside her closed bakery and it hit me that I should have brought something along or really had prepared what
~Asher~ His words were like small daggers digging through open wounds as we remained seated. I couldn’t find the right words, I didn’t know what to do next. I wasn’t expecting much changes or his hands wide spread open to hug me. I secretly hoped it would go as smoothly and happily ever but this wasn’t some novel shit. His words were strong enough to throw me off balance as I didn’t expect to be not wanted even before assuming the role. I could feel her eyes look up at me directly as I had mine down, completely drowned in thoughts. The thoughts that I wasn’t needed and rejected were like hot brass under the sole of my feet. This was the same pain felt during a normal rejection, now just without the tangible slice of pain cutting through but I still felt pains in my chest and the only thing that felt like a remedy right now was to go back to the pack house. I needed to go back for now and face it myself. I couldn’t turn back the hands of time, I couldn’t try
~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
~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
