“What? Are you crazy? She’s dead!” I exclaimed, ‘but you saw her, didn’t you? The full moon is tonight, you must be ready, the shift is pain like no other, especially since it’s your first time’.Somehow I’ve been here for over a month, it felt like ages. I knew the full moon was tonight. And I felt ready.******It was nighttime and I had just taken a really cold shower to calm my restless nerves, I sat in front of the vanity brushing my hair, another thing that manages to calm me down somehow. Looking in the mirror, I saw that my eyes had began glowing, not shiny or anything, but the green was really bright. I brushed it off as nothing and continued brushing my hair. The forest. I needed…… why was I feeling like going there? Right….uh full moon. Okay.I put in some pants and a shirt and headed out. Barefooted.I went deep into woods, on and on andRelated chapters
JAGGED CHAPTER 25
ARIAN’S POVSHE was finally awake and apparently was having issues staying on the ground, I found that incredibly amusing. I Hadn’t seen her though, I told Martha to tell her that we weren’t training today, I don’t think I can stomach seeing her in that ridiculous messy bun she always wears. I was taking a shower and Just thinking about it, I felt my body react and I hissed as I hardened. I palmed myself and thought of her lips, when I thought of how she bites them when she’s nervous, my cock jerked and I groaned. And her ass, fuck, I’ve always wondered what it would feel like if I held it, squeezed it.Maybe I’d bend her over in this very shower and fuck her from behind with all the anger I seem to have that she was the one fate had chosen to be my mate. Dirty thoughts concerning my mate pelted me f

DEVONNE’S POV“Considering you summoned me, I’d say you must have figured it out” the stunning silver-haired lady said to me. I was dreaming again. I didn’t even know what time it was. “There is no time here” she said again and I frowned “you can read my thoughts?” She giggled, “you really don’t know anything about our world do you?”I just folded my arms and frowned at her, “where are we?” I asked, trying to see anything other than just mist in the place, but failed miserably. “It’s a place…..that isn’t quite a place” “why don’t you just appear to your Brother instead? Maybe you could help him get the stick out of his ass” I grumbled. She just laughed and said, “I would, but it turns out you’re the only one I could contact”, I could proudly say…. that I just met her, but she was by far more friendly than her uptight brother. “And I didn’t summon you” “you didn’t?” She seemed genuinely surprised. I shook my head “But my wolf seemed to think you could help me master my witch powers

DEVONNE’S POVARIAN seemed to be avoiding me all week, he didn’t show up at our training sessions, nothing, and short of going to knock on his door, I couldn’t find him anywhere. Funny considering he was always everywhere. But I hadn’t seen him since that day we went to the mall. I was just walking in the woods, going to that lake where I had shifted for the first time. Then the subject of my thoughts appeared. He looked awful, almost like he hadn’t slept all week. “Arian? You okay?”. When he looked at me, I almost gasped, his eyes were just blank and he just walked past me, not before I noticed his wrist though. I don’t know why it warmed my heart that he was wearing the watch I got him. What was wrong with him though? I made to follow him, but changed my mind and continued on my way. Things like that shouldn’t bother me. But that’s the thing , it did bother me,it bothered me that he looked haunted and tired, it bothered me that ……… before I could dwell on it any further, my phone

DEVONNE’S POV“Really helpful” I grumbled as I headed back to the house, “how am I supposed to find a book with no title?!” I got into my bedroom and heard the shower running, I shrugged, Arian was probably taking a shower, I hadn’t seen any of his little mistresses around lately, so it had to be him. But My Wolf perked up “go in” she said and I simply shook my head “why? You don’t want a man to have privacy because you just happen to be his mate?” I teased back in my head. But she didn’t seem to be in a joking mood and her restlessness was seeping into me, I still didn’t know how to completely block out her emotions yet. “What’s wrong Mela?” “I don’t know” with that I just barged into the bathroom, I found Arian in the tub, actually I found him submerged in the tub filled with water. He wasn’t moving. I instantly went into panick mode and rushed to get him out, “Arian? Arian!” I yelled. He wasn’t responding. “Help!” I shouted, but it seemed like the whole pack house was empty. I

ARIAN’S POVWhen the pack doctor came in, he told me everything that I already knew. I wasn’t sleeping enough. He had asked me why, but I just told him to mind his business, even though I knew very well that he knew I had a mate I didn’t want to claim but I also was finding it difficult to reject. “Look, it’s either you accept her or reject her, there’s no in between” he said “Mind your own fucking business” I threw back. The pack house was empty save for me and Devonne, I didn’t even want to consider what could have happened if she weren’t there…. Now I owe her a debt, not just any, but a life debt. I went back to my room after the doctor left to find her still sleeping, I’d been avoiding her all week and she seemed to be spending a lot of time in the library. It’s something, for someone as rich and money minded as she was, she sure did like to read a lot of novels. I chuckled, my Luna is a novel lover. My Luna…. I started at the direction of my thoughts. Just then she stirred

DEVONNE’S POV“Did I just hear you talking to yourself?” Arian asked me. Oh, guess she was right about me being the only one who could communicate with her, it must have been a lonely few years. “It’s none of your business Arian” I huffed and fell back on the bed, throwing the covers over myself. “Come on you have to tell me, I need to know if my fated mate is a mad person” he said again, his voice sounding closer, I looked at him with narrowed eyes and found him looking amused. “I need to go to bed now mate” he smirked grabbing the covers with a large hand and throwing them open. I just turned the other way and slid closer to the edge of the bed. He chuckled, I heard the bed dip and then dip again closer to where I was, my eyes widened as I felt his arm around my waist, I screeched and scrambled away from the bed glaring daggers at him. He just laughed harder, “you … you should’ve seen your face!” “Glad to know my misery makes you happy” I deadpanned “Oh come on, you looked hilar

DEVONNE'S POV“what the fuck was that?” Arian asked frantically, running his hands all over my face, I had gotten myself back after several minutes and gulping a glass of really cold water that he had handed me. I ignored his question and asked instead “how did you know what to do?” “I didn’t, I just acted I guess, you were like lava, and ah… cold is like the opposite of heat” he said, rubbing the back of his head, pretty sure he just realized he was stuttering “I just screamed because I felt so much heat, guess I have to master these witch powers as soon as possible huh” I said letting out a nervous laugh. I wasn’t about to tell Arian that I had seen a weird blue haired lady in the mirror, followed by his dead, ‘not dead’ twin sister.“if Margot were here, she probably would’ve been able to help you” I just looked at him and was quiet, long enough that he felt he needed to clarify “Margot is…” “your twin sister, Edward’s mate and Ava’s mother, yeah, I know” I cut him off. “oh, I’ll

DEVONNE’S POV“Are you kidding me? This place is amazing!” I exclaimed, because it really was, it was just empty. I have a lot of businesses but I don’t quite know how to run a restaurant. Maybe I should partner with one when I’m back in LA so I can learn some new stuff. I made a mental note to check in with Sansa when I got back. “Ahem, earth to Devonne” I snapped out of my little daze to see an amused expression on Arian’s face “what?” “Well, if my guess is right, you were just imagining yourself as the owner of a restaurant weren’t you?” “Oh come on, I’m not that predictable” I scoffed, “oh yes you are” he countered “you’re one of the most successful business owners in all of California, not just LA, you’ve got to have the mind of a machine to achieve all that you have” I just looked at my lap, and this time when my stomach growled, I was thankful for it, because it meant I got to eat and choose not to divulge anything about my life. So we ordered and ate in silence, it wasn’

JAGGED CHAPTER 54
NATHAN’S POVRocking back and forth in my chair and thinking on how to approach the matter of the Tabloids this morning, I was damn near my breaking point. I groaned inwardly when her scent hit me, it was a scent that had managed to drive me crazy and keep me grounded at the same time over the years. I knew it was her even with my eyes closed. She knows now… I thought, she knows about my feelings. Perhaps I should have just died with that knowledge but… somehow it got out last night. All I’ve ever wanted was for her to be happy, sometimes I wonder if that was a mistake I’d made for myself, but then again, it’s not like I could have forced her. I mean… I could’ve told her but… I just couldn’t bring myself to do it or say those three words that keeps fluttering in my head. “What is it that you want Dev?” I asked, my exhaustion seeping into my voice. “I want to apologize” she was walking towards me now, but I don’t know if I can take that so I stopped her with a harsh “don’t…” she s
JAGGED CHAPTER 53
DEVONNE’S POVWhen I came to again, I saw that I was lying down on a couch in my living room. “You’re awake”. I turned in the direction of the voice, “Arian…” “Devonne I’m sorry” he said, coming to kneel in front of me and looking for the world like he was afraid. “I’ll never want to hurt you, I’ll never want to do anything that would make you sad and I’m so sorry” he ran his hands through his hair “you’ve got me wound up so tight, I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore” I sat up, and cupped his face with my hands, “Arian… all those months in Italy, I didn’t know how much they meant to me until I had to leave, I didn’t know how much I was used to bickering with you until I was faced with the quietness of my own company, but sometimes I feel we both find it so difficult to communicate, it’s annoying… but I think it’s something we both ought to work on. I want to try this with you Arian, everyday I spent apart from you these last few weeks have been pure discomfort” having finally le
JAGGED CHAPTER 52
DEVONNE’S POVTanya appeared about half hour later in a flurry of pink and spent a good ten minutes doting on Nathan which made me… honestly… throw up a little in my mouth. “So… we’re going to the spa first” she said excitedly as we got into her car… yes her car. Nathan made sure to hide my keys, the motherfucking bastard. “Yay” I said dully… “I’ve always wanted a girls outing like this!” She said and tore out of my driveway. “You have them all the time Tanya” “oh no, this is different, I pay for everything on those outings with those leeches, I’m not spending anything on this one and I was told to go wild” she said and before I could ask her what she meant, she held up a black card. Nathan’s Card. “Oh” I just said and she huffed out a breath. “You really don’t like me, do you?” She asked and I was surprised. Maybe it was that surprise or the tone with which she asked me but… “no Tanya, no I don’t” “can you at least pretend? For today?” “What do you think I’ve been doing?” I ask s
JAGGED CHAPTER 51
ARIAN’S POV“She’s being annoying Edward, she wouldn’t let herself have anything good” I vented to Edward over the phone. “Glad you see yourself as something good” came the voice over the phone. “This is not the time to be sarcastic”, he sighed, “look Arian… Devonne has been through enough in her life, she obviously isn’t gonna trust you because you took her out on a date twice” “fine” I ground out and hung up. I leaned back on my couch, putting my arm over my eyes, “fucking stubborn mate…” I muttered and damn if the challenge she put out wasn’t turning me on like crazy. “Fu…ck” I groaned, I could jerk off, maybe it would reduce the pressure but… no, I won’t. The next time I was going to cum, I would be buried deep inside of Devonne. The thought of it had my cock straining against my pants but I simply would not acknowledge it. If she wanted to annoy me, then I would annoy her right back. I picked up my phone and dialed a number. After that I hit the gym, working out all the frustr
JAGGED CHAPTER 50
DEVONNE’S POV“Nuh uh, we’re taking my car”. I swear if looks could kill… yeah Arian would be dead, “but I like my car just fine” I protested and made to unlock my car but the keys were snatched from my hands. “Hmm, let’s just say, I’m not really comfortable with you driving any vehicle that I’m gonna be in” he said, holding the keys out of my reach. I eventually gave up and folded my arms. “You act like Ava when she doesn’t get what she wants” he chuckled and went to open the passenger door of his SUV for me. “You know what Arian?” I said as I got in “hmm?” “I refused to be annoyed by you today…” he laughed, shutting the door. “Glad you find me amusing” I muttered under my breath. We arrived at my Mother’s house, and just as we got there, it dawned on me that I never called to tell her that I was coming over. And most certainly not that I was bringing this hulking idiot with me. Oh well… guess we just might get it over with, I thought stepping out of the car. I was almost at the d
JAGGED CHAPTER 49
DEVONNE’S POVI was smiling while making cookies the next morning when Nathan walked into the kitchen, he was practically living in my house now, but thank God he slept out last night, because I don’t think I would be able to explain why I was moaning loudly in the living room, neither would I be able to get over the trauma if he had walked in on me and Arian. Speaking of Arian… I thought about our date last night, I had every reason to be skeptical but for whatever reason it was, I was just going with everything. “Uhm Hello… Earth to Devonne” Nathan was saying, waving his hands in my face. “Well good Morning to you too Nate” I said happily, “someone’s in a good mood” he noted with a smile of his own. “Hot date last night?” He asked, making me turn to stare at him. He had one brow up. “Well…” He just chuckled and scrolled on his phone, bringing up an article and showing his screen to me. It was a picture of Arian helping me out of the car and there was another of us coming out, whe
JAGGED CHAPTER 48
DEVONNE’S POV THE next day I was all dressed up and ready to go to work in green blazers and a tight skirt that came to stop mid thigh. Inappropriate? Well…that’s why I own the place. I pulled on my knee high heeled boots. I straightened my hair and let it down, applying some red gloss and blotting it with a tissue. Then I stepped out putting on a pair of sunglasses on my way to the car. I didn’t bother with jewelry except a wrist watch and a simple gold chain. When I arrived at the office, I received quite the welcome from my secretary, rattling off appointments and stuff that I needed to do. Sometimes I wonder if Sansa was human. But well, there’s only so much I can do about her being so good. Everything was going well, until I stepped into my office to find it filled with flowers. There were flowers everywhere, including on my desk, flowers of every kind and every color. At least a path was created for me to walk to my desk. Which as I finally looked up, was occupied by a certai
JAGGED CHAPTER 47
DEVONNE’S POVI had just come out of the shower, I decided to let my hair dry on it’s own and just sat in front of my mirror. I looked okay I guess, there was more color on my face. A knock on my door had me saying “come in” without considering who it could be. Maybe it was Nathan or one of my parents were back. What I did not expect though, was to see Arian walk into my room. I was instantly on my feet. He was looking exceptionally good in a well pressed lilac shirt and black pants, but I wasn’t about to tell him that. “What are you doing here? How’d you get in?” I demanded. “One, I’m here to see you, two, You left a key under the flowerpot” he drawled and just started approaching me. “Stay there!” I said, not wanting to have him anywhere close to me “Why though?” He asked still walking to me, at this point I had left my vanity and was now backing towards my closet.‘Because I just had a wet dream about you few hours back and I can’t trust my mind and body not to react to you’ I w
JAGGED CHAPTER 46
DEVONNE’S POVMY Dad came by later at night, Nathan in tow, looking very exhausted. I had my Mom move me downstairs again for dinner and so I could watch TV. “Where have you two been?” I asked in an accusatory tone “we had some work to take care of” my Dad replied. “I need to see Bri and Josh tomorrow Dad” I told him and he sighed “can we….. talk about this tomorrow? I’m sorry Dev but I’m beat and I really need to start heading home now”. I frowned at him “aren’t you gonna stay here?” He cleared his throat awkwardly “uhm, no….I ah. I just have to go” “Me too” my Mom blurted from where she was seated and I narrowed my eyes at both of them. “I’ll stay here with you Devonne, I don’t have anything doing at home anyway” Nathan said a bit quietly. I opened my mouth to ask questions but Nathan just cut me off. “They haven’t rested at all Devonne” and I immediately felt guilty. “Okay” I just said and watched them both walk out after each giving me a kiss on the head. And then I was alone
