~Hazel~Morning came almost too quickly as I got up to start breakfast on time and get Jaden ready for school. I and Tristan talked last night about me coming to the head house in the mornings to avoid any of Asher’s surprise visit. I start off with a simple breakfast, before her sleepy voice Interrupts “is it morning already?” She walked in rubbing her eyes a little with a pout. Sometimes I wonder if she’s really girly or just fierce like she poses to be sometimes. “Good morning sleeping beauty, you can go get ready. I’ll dress Jaden up and finish up breakfast.” I focused on what I was whipping and moved to bring out some plates. “Okay I’ll be back in a jiffy” she slowly responded, going back to probably have her bath. I’m sure the water would do justice and bring her back to reality away from the sleeping world. “Mama!” His tiny voice rang out. “What’s it baby?” I removed the eggs from the cooker and headed towards his voice, and crouched down
~Hazel~ I definitely told Rose that she could have said any other thing besides that. ‘I can clearly see what she’s doing’ I reasoned within myself as I chuckled remembering Jaden’s outburst. I almost had a heart attack myself as I thought he was going through something at school first. I continued to walk down the path leading straight to the head house as a smile just sat on my face, a little in thought about Jaden’s behaviour. I really wonder why he’s so hesitant on Tristan, I know Tristan has always been around from when he was born and he definitely has grown fond of him but I still couldn’t get a grasp on why he would be that hesitant. I literally thought having Tristan around might prompt him to ask questions about his father. But no he didn’t come up with such questions and even only bothers about me being a queen. “You won a lottery?” His voice came up as I noticed that I was already at the head house and I stopped to look up following the voice. “Good morni
~Hazel~I was so indulged in my conversation with Tristan that I didn’t smell him come in. His voice break up the hug as I could hear the disgust in his voice. “Oh I’m sorry, it seems I always come in at the wrong time.” I could see him muttering through clenched teeth as he placed his left hand on his chest like was really sincere while the other hand stayed in his pocket. “It’s fine, it’s never a wrong moment with Wolfy” he spoke back to Asher maintaining his stance as he moved me gently with his hands on my waist to stand by his side. I turned a blind eye to the fury that appeared and beamed on his face as he pulled back and bent his head a little and we both heard him sigh heavily like he was trying to hold back. “Okay cool. Can we talk about more important business then.” Uttering he stood firmly and walked passed, totally ignoring me as his statement rang freely in the room. What does he mean to talk about more important business? Did he just call me
~Hazel~ “Are you good? You practically said nothing while he was here.” Tristan asked out of concern, standing above me calling my attention away from my phone. “Yeah. You guys were discussing business and I know how important it is for you.” I muttered through clenched teeth forcing out a smile as I allowed the anger in me to dissipate. It was at the tip of my tongue to ask Tristan how Asher got my number but who was I kidding? He definitely wouldn’t have given him my number. Whatever means Asher got my number just proved that he could easily search me out and find out about Jaden. I tried to hide the panic written all over my face as Tristan still hovered around me trying to pinpoint what’s wrong as my face betrayed me, failing to hide my sudden fear. “I’m completely fine.” I laughed it off trying to act normal as his eyes followed every of my movements. “If you say so, Wolfy.” He gave up crouching to sit down beside me. I let a few seconds pass by as he relaxe
~Asher~ She completely ignored my texts last night like I expected her to. It was a touchy topic and I knew I was stepping on fragile ground there. I came to meet Tristan only with intentions to get back at her physically. I could swear mu eyes met with Tristan’s before that hug. I think Tristan saw me come in and refused to recognize me till I got closer to them and I saw her flinch under him as she noticed my presence. It was all now past tense as i pushed the image behind me believing it was nothing.I decided to make use of her number I had gotten for a while now. If I had known sooner that a simple text would set her in a rage then I would've considered doing it sooner. Any reaction from her at all as long as it sets her in a rage was all I was looking for. “Asher? Your girl is around.” Ross muttered with a knock on my door grabbing my attention at once. “What? Why? I thought I asked Leo to deal with her?” My voice came out in a hurry as I stood face to
~Asher~ “As she what?!” My voice came out fiercely as she took some steps backward. I was way too mad to calm down even when I watched her take fearful steps away from me. That’s right she should be scared of me and do exactly what I say. I watch her with careful eyes waiting for her to complete her statement. “As she got rejected.” Her voice came out shaky as she moved towards a nearby table using it as support as her legs were also shaky. “You have no fucking business in my room and don’t disturb yourself on whether I f**ked Hazel in that room or not. You are the one standing right beside me, aren’t you?” I uttered taking huge steps towards her wanting her to hear every single word as it came out fiercely and out of a place of intense anger. She only nods her head in agreement as her mouth fails to produce any words. “Now won’t you be a good girl and go wait patiently like I asked you too?” She was going to agree either way I handled this situation as I w
~Hazel~It’s been over a week now and I just sit and stare at his last message every single day before going to the head house hoping he’ll be dropping a hint if he was or wasn’t coming. I had to still go to the head house, scared of the fact that he might just show up even if he hasn’t been here for days. These days when I could spend every second with Jaden, I still had to leave with the thought that he might just show up without announcement. I brushed it behind me, focusing my mind back to what I was doing. Rose already dropped Jaden at school but wasn’t back yet. I thought to clear up the bakery that was now dusty as it hadn’t been in use for weeks now. ‘Well we had just one person to blame for all this’ I twirl my head hissing at the thought of Asher. Why couldn’t he just send a message or at least inform Tristan that he wouldn’t come to Inspect his special trees today or the days before? Now I just go there and sit with a full head house of lycans with Marcus
~Hazel~ “Mama!” Jaden's little voice came up to me and I Immediately froze up. Turning my gaze to meet my son who was glad to see me. Even though he agreed to our arrangements, I’m sure he must have missed me a lot as the smile he has on now was saying a lot. The silence from the other side of the line made it clear that Asher must have heard what Jaden said. I panic a little thinking of what to do as Asher should never find out about Jaden. Taking the phone away from my ears a bit, I put my hands over the speakers making sure he didn't hear what I was about to say to Jaden who was now looking at me and the phone I had hung in the air. “My baby! Why are you back so early and where’s aunty Rose?” I asked in a hurry as I hate to be in the position Asher put me in. I couldn’t even welcome my son like I wished to and I couldn’t even worry about why he’s here so early as I didn’t want to arouse any suspicion. “She’s home dropping my bag. She told me you would be he
~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
