ALEXIS'S POV

I turn on the knob and twist it to warm water . I let the water wash away my troubles . Every time I am in a bad mood , I decide to let the water do it's work and cleanse me , even if it doesn't work sometimes , at the very least it's a bit relaxing . Something is better than nothing is it not ?

As I'm in the shower , I hear a knock on the door , followed by Alec and Michael's voices . 

" Guys ... did you hear something strange last night ? " Michael asks . My hands freeze during mid - shampooing .

Their voices fade out , they probably moved to another room . I finish my shower as quickly as I can , not wanting to miss the conversation that was about to occur . I wash my hair , body and pat myself dry in less than 2 minutes . Then I brush my teeth and throw on the clothes that I set aside for me . After I'm done , I head outside my room only to find that no one was there . There was a bedroom and a sort o

    Ch 22 * Trigger Warning : The following chapter may have scenes that some readers may find uncomfortable , especially sexual assault victims . If you would just like a summary instead , skip to the very end and read it . Then you can simply move on to the next chapter * ALEXIS's POV I can't look away from the couple sitting at that table . The whole time , the wife is sniffling and wiping away her tears as she eats her food trying not to taint it with her natural saltwater . The husband , on the other hand , seems mostly unbothered , eating quietly . Almost like he is pretending that he doesn't notice whatever is going on with his wife . It's none of my business though . I eat my food in silence trying to ignore the couple . Jace looked at me and followed the direction of my gaze and possibly figured out the source of my concern . From under the table , I feel his hand on my thigh . I look up at him and

    I wasn't furious .I wasn't angry .I just wanted to get away from him . I was sad that he could do something like that to me , despite my protests . I felt disgusting .Cade was still staring at me , lavishing every look , every glance and every area of my body . I hear a few knocks at the door . Cade doesn't move and I'm too afraid to ." Alexis , are you alright ? " I hear Michael's voice .I want to scream that I'm not , but I'm not sure if I should .But as soon as Cade growls and places his lips on my neck again , I knew there was no other option . I wasn't strong enough to fight him off . " Michael ! Help me ! " My voice cracks . I've never felt so embarrassed . So powerless . More than I hate him , I've never hated myself more .And yet I still got caught up in his lies . I stayed . I .. I'm an idiot . I'm such a fucking idiot . I actually thought he cared about me but I gues

  • Just a bite   Off with the head

    Third Person Pov Michael waits , lying down on the floor mattress , pretending to be asleep . He listens intensely for the sign of her slumber . As soon as her breathing transitions from quick shallow bouts to deep and regular , he raises his head , taking a peak . Her tear stained face seemed to be at peace at last . He resists the urge to growl from frustration . ' How could he do this to his own mate ? ' He thinks in anger , however , he couldn't bring himself to completely blame him . It wasn't because Jace was his Alpha , it was just that Michael understood clearly wolf behaviour and wolf urges . Even he himself hasn't seen wolves who were unclaimed around their mate during a full moon , the results are catastrophic . Full moon is when the energy , strength and power of the inner wolf spirits is the strongest , it's when they get the opportunity to take control more easily than ever . Control is something Alphas have an inborn scarcity of so he w

    Third Person Pov Suddenly there was a knock on the door . " M.. Michael .. Alec ? Are you there ? " Alexis called out with a nervous voice . Alec and Michael look at each other and then at Jace . Her voice seemed to have stirred him awake . ' This is bad ' Michael thinks , but he hopes that it'll be alright . It's morning , the effects of the full moon should wear off by now . Even though it had started yesterday in the morning as well , it was still the only day that would have the most effect on Jace . The next few days should be mostly fine , even though he'll still be slightly on the edge . There isn't enough time for them to rush over and snap his neck again. Jace's neck contorts into it's original position before they get an opportunity to try . His eyes snap open , bloodshot red . Michael and Alec hold their breath , ignoring the further few knocks at their door . " Why the fuck does my ne

    Alexis's Pov " Why are you here? " I ask him cautiously , trying to back away with no space to retreat to . I was already at the edge of the bed . " I .. wanted to let you know that you are free to leave if you want after I revive your friend . And you don't have to worry because .. " He sighs with a pause . " I'll never touch you again " The words linger in my head for a while . He'll never touch me again . " How do I know those words have some ground to them ? " Shouldn't I take everything he says with a grain of salt considering that his inner wolf comes out whenever he please and treats me however he wants . And apparently he can't do shit to control him .. And now he is saying with such confidence that he will never touch me again ? Is he aiming for the mountains ? " It's true . I've decided to make a deal with Cade . " He says . I wonder how they communicate , it seems quite intere

    Alexis's Pov " We don't have his body . " " WHAT ? " I almost shout . " What do you mean ? " Did Aeron's dad take his body somewhere else ? That seems like a logical explanation. " It disappeared " It disappeared . This was some kind of sick joke right ? 'Dead bodies don't just disappear ' I think bitterly at the fact that I refer to him as a dead body now . " What do you mean ? " I ask carefully and Jace leans in from his side of the bed too , listening intently , probably just as curious as I am yet not as concerned though . " Some of my subordinates were bringing him back , they stopped at the gas station and when they returned his body vanished . " His voice was dead cold as he said it . He seemed to be angry over the ordeal just as Alexis was . After all , even if Dad didn't particularly like Aeron , he was still the son of a man who used to be his best friend . More than that , it was pro

    Alexis's Pov I was half asleep when I felt something poking my arm . Thinking it was some kind of insect , I yelp and suddenly get up to turn on the table light right next to the bed . I stare at the bed . There wasn't an insect or anything but there was .. " A fish hook ? " I pick it up in confusion . Before I fell asleep , I was sure this wasn't on the bed . I'm sure it wasn't in the room actually , let alone the bed . What would a fish hook be doing here ? I brush it off and put it on the side table and go back to sleep . It's been a while but it only felt like 5 minutes before my sleep was interrupted again . There was a thud outside the door . It sounded like someone fell and it jolted me awake . I stare at the ceiling , blinded with darkness . " Can you help me please ? " I hear a small young voice of a girl call out from outside . I panic and turn on the light , staring intensely at the door wit

    " How come no one else is here " I notice . " T.. that's probably why " Michael points to the fireplace as we walk down the stairs and I follow the direction of his gaze . There was a little girl squatting in front of it , even though there wasn't any fire lit at the moment. The thing that bothered me wasn't this . It was the fact that her body completely glistened under the light , and it was entirely transparent . We could see through her . She's a ghost ? I almost trip and tumble down the stairs but Jace steadies my waist with his hands causing sparks to fly . I grab the railing for support and walk down . The whole time , Michael is gawking at what he sees . I'm afraid he'll fall too . " What in the fuck - " Michael stares . " This is a dream right ? " I rub my eyes and blink a few times but she's still there . " You're a vampire . We are werewolves . Is the existence of ghosts really that shocking ? " Jace co

  • Just a bite   Epilogue

    " They are healing up nicely " the pack doctor tells me and I sigh with relief . I'm glad we decided to ask a neighbouring pack doctor for help ( Alpha Reiner ) . Apparently , Dianna .. I mean , Mom , was successful in convincing him after all and he doesn't seem to have a problem with her meeting me anymore as long as she doesn't come close to Dracula in the slightest . The pack doctor was a good call , those injuries were not my cup of tea at all . Michael was pacing around outside the room the whole time . The guilt was eating him alive . He was with Michelle at the time and his phone was outside their room . I don't blame him and I'm honestly glad that he wasn't there when it happened . Because then what happened to Alec could have happened to him as well . I blame myself for what happened to Alec . I was the one who called him , I should have just went myself without him . I'm the reason he's human now . ' Thank you . ' he had told me .

    I see Noah entering the cottage as he goes to take a seat on the living room couch ." How did you frame her ? " I question ." It isn't hard for a powerful witch to use an element . " she says simply as she gets up and puts the leftover tea in the sink. " Enough with the questions .. a little birdie told me that you have exactly what I'm looking for . "I look away ." What are you talking about ? " I ask innocently ." Aren't we past pretending ? The channeling device , I know you have it . I saw it . With great power , you get a fraction of seer like abilities , if you know how to use them " she purses her lips , making her slight wrinkles more evident than they were before ." I have no clue what you are referring to . " I shrug . " I think we are done here . " I stand up slowly .What would happen if she used the dagger to steal Jace's essence . Would he die ?" Sit down .

    " Since when ? " I questioned her as I stood a good few feet away from the bed ." The beginning . " she admits ." You were a lackey for my mother since the moment you met us ? " I ask incredulously ." Of course not . It was the next day that your mother approached me . I knew about the existence of supernatural beings , I just didn't know that you were one . "" Until she told you and asked you to spy on me . " I sigh and put my hands on the temples of my cheek in disbelief . This whole time then , our friendship was fake . She didn't care about me , she was just doing her job ." I needed the money for my family . " she says quietly ." I don't care anymore , Kayla . It's fine . " I say simply , taking a few deep breaths .After Aeron , I didn't think I'd find another best friend , I .. was starting to think of Kayla as my best friend even if she was a human , I was going to make it work somehow .I wanted to make it

    " What do you want ? " I ask dryly , not making my strong emotions evident ." I just wanted to see you . " She breathes out as if taking it all in . Her hazel eyes water just the slightest and I almost give in ." You didn't see me for 18 years so why now ? "She looks inside the room .Hell no , I'm not inviting her in . I don't plan this to be longer than it actually has to be . She can say what she wants to say and then leave . I think a part of me knew that it wasn't entirely her fault but a part of me thinks she could have completely avoided this by simply waiting for her mate . Then I wouldn't be here . And I wouldn't have met Jace . So maybe that isn't the best idea after all .Without any delay she pushes past me to get inside and takes a seat on the couch in the living ." Shall we talk ? "" As if I have any choice in the matter . " I mumble as I take a seat next to her ." Have you hidden the dag

    " You're crushing her . Loosen up . " Jace warns as Kayla practically squishes me to death . Perhaps if it was my human self , I'd be choking for air right now but since I have grown much stronger over the span of the past few days , it actually doesn't bother me in the slightest . Jace was probably concerned that I'd suddenly be bombarded with blood lust and I would end up tearing her apart . I may not be an absolute control freak but I'm still relatively accustomed to controlling ." I missed you too . " I laugh as she finally pulls away . I had no idea that I could get this attached to a human . All of my life I've mostly ever been around vampires and I don't mean this in a rude way but I just assumed I wouldn't get along with humans . I was wrong .Vampires , humans , werewolves etc . It doesn't matter who it is . At the end of the day we are all the same thing . We are people . No matter the types or the species , I'd like to think that we all have something in co

    " Are you sure you want to go back ? " he asks ."Jace , I can't be stuck in here and hide forever . I'll have to go out at some point , besides , it's been a few days and I'm much better at controlling it now . "It was true that the slight temper issues brought on by the werewolf transition definitely ended up in me having a more difficult time with controlling my thirst than before but I was managing . I swear I was . And I was getting really bored hanging around in this hotel all day . If I'm going to be honest , being bored is a worse combination anyway so it's a better idea for me to return .This way I could finally have some distractions and also something to do instead of sitting around watching TV or playing some pool . It could be good in curbing my urges . Shouldn't I take my willpower out for a test drive ?" I'm not so sure about that . " he smirks .I can already tell he was talking about last night so I decide not to comment on it .

    I paw at him to gain his attention . How do I tell him that I want to turn back ? He looks at me and raises his eyebrow .I try to feel the desire to turn back to my human self , hoping that he would feel it too and would let me know how . As expected , he hadn't put up a wall and realised almost immediately what I meant . I wonder if Jace and I will be able to communicate through mild link just like Alec and Michael . It seems fun , intruiging and more than anything a different sort of connection that I'd like to try out ." Step by step you need to focus on your limbs and visualise them returning to normal . Will it with your strength . " he explains , still stroking my fur . I try to do as he says and he gets up from the ground , walking over to a nearby tree . I was too busy to notice until he dropped the bag in front of me which contained presumably my clothes .Following his instructions , it doesn't take long before I slowly return to my original body .

    I scream as my arm twists in the other direction , possibly breaking and adjusting my elbow joint to match a wolf's . In my whole life , I have never felt such excruciating pain before . Sure there were moments that were particularly hard to bear but this ..I wanted to die than endure another second of it ." You don't have to feel it . " I tell him painfully with tears in my eyes . The searing burn and throb of a fracture made me drop to the ground and pant as my heart beats hard enough to rip out of my chest .Jace was flinching with my every move , every wave of pain caused him to grunt and grit his teeth . Why was he not putting up the wall ? Just because I'm going through it doesn't mean he has to as well . He's already done this before , there's no reason for him to experience such unpleasantness ( such an understatement ) twice ." You'll be okay , just breathe through it . You'll be okay .
