ARIAONE WEEK LATER"Are you sure about this?" Chase whispered to Axle before looking up, our eyes met. I still felt guilty every time I looked into his eyes or he looked into mine because of the things I did to him, to the three of them. I couldn't believe I had gone feral that night, and it took me some time before I had had to accept the fact that I nearly killed the three brothers. Today, we had gathered to talk about the news that was coming, which was also part of the reason I was attacked. News had been sent to us that one of the spies was returning to the Pack and would be here anytime soon, with great news. We, therefore, had to gather immediately and talk about it before sending him out again to join the others and inform us if he got other information. I smiled at Chase, even though I felt so horrible right now. He smiled back before he went back to discussing it with his brothers. I knew they were also struggling to make sense of the tangled mess we found ourselves in, ju
AXLE."What are you doing here? I asked you not to come back anymore." I asked, staring down at her with utter disgust. She smiled as if taunting me. "Really? Is this it? You're going to throw me out because of that wretched, sniveling piece of shit that-" I smacked her across the face so hard that her face turned red instantly. But it didn't seem to hurt her because the next second she was smiling and shaking her head slowly. "Tell me what I did to deserve this, Axle. Give me one reason." She said. "You disrespected my mate. And I don't want you anymore. I made it clear to you when we first met that you could be going anytime. And that time is now. She's now the one in my heart, not you." I growled at her but she scoffed in response as the tears started to fall from her eyes. "Yeah... you did." She said, between sobs. "But I fucking loved you. You gave me a reason to love again, and is this what you're going to do to me after all we've been through? I was there for you, I was the
ARIA.The sun was slowly starting to rise and so were our hopes. The tension in the air was so thick that you could feel it. Axle quickly took his sword, and moved out of the way for the others to take theirs. Some of us had chosen to be foot soldiers during the battle, but there was still a great chance that we were going to fight in our wolf forms if the worse came to the worse. Three days had passed since we received word of the enemy's approach, and just as the man had put it, they were arriving today. Spies had already brought news that they were very near to the borders and might be here anytime. That's when the door burst open. A Pack guard ran in breathlessly, it was very clear from the way he looked that he had a very big news, the one we had been expecting since we discussed the battle strategies again this morning. They were partitioned to lead different troops and make sure that there weren't a lot of casualties. "Alpha. " He called out, breathless as he bowed towards A
ARIA.As my consciousness slowly returned to me, I felt like I was enveloped in a fog of pain and exhaustion. At first I couldn't move a single muscle and my body felt so sore. My vision was also blurry as I tried to make a sense of where I was. I blinked repeatedly and frantically before the hazy view finally disappeared and that's when I realised the reality of things.I was chained to a wall, with iron links that dug into my skin so tight that they held me in place and didn't allow me to make a single movement. My heart jumped in fear as I thought about it. What must have happened, I hoped this wasn't what I had in mind. If it was then we were in very deep trouble.I tried to speak, but all that escaped my lips was a ragged cough which burned my throat. My throat also felt sore, which added to the pain. I groaned before trying to work on the chains again, summoning my powers but it was so useless. Nothing happened, in fact the chains didn't shake a bit. I immediately got desperate t
AXLE.Intense fear seized me the moment I understood what was going on. I watched as the witches raised their wands towards and began to cast the ancient spell. I knew what they were doing.They were bending her to their own will, and were turning her into nothing more than a puppet to do whatever they wanted. Caesar was right when he told her that he didn't need her intention to do what he wanted and I had only doubted him until I saw what his real intentions were.I tried to yell at Aria to resist what they were doing, or even cry out in protest, but my voice caught in my throat. I couldn't say a single word, the witches had done something to us and glancing back at my brothers who were still chained, I could tell from the sombre look in their eyes that they were also trying to yell at her to resist them but it wasn't just happening. I was utterly downcast seeing her go through so much pain without being able to help her.I wished I had helped her when I had the chance, none of this
After the tumultuous battle with Caesar, it took Aria several weeks to recover from her physical and emotional wounds. Axle, Chase and Damon were there to look after her and offer comfort as she got better.As her strength returned, they began to rebuild the Pack, together. Caesar's men, despite their atrocities, were forgiven and allowed to return to their former Pack's and families, but were sworn to an oath that they would forever owe their allegiance to the Pack.Eventually as the wounds of the battle faded and everything gradually came back to normal, Aria and Axle came together. She chose him and they consummate their love, sealing their commitment to one another for eternity. Axle marked her, which ended up making her even more powerful.Damon and Chase, meanwhile, pledged their allegiance to the couple without hesitating, having been brought back from the brink of death by their fated love.
Katarina’s POVA scream tore through my throat as my eyes trailed down to my bloody body.My blurry eyes shone out in terror as I stared dangerously at the blood-stained down from his body to the bed, almost streaming to where I lay. I couldn't help but scream again as I realized what today was, and instantly hands reached for my mouth, covering it to avoid more cries from coming out as I kept staring at him for heaven knows I didn't know the face of the man laying beside me in the pool of his blood.I was in total shock. My numb right hand left my mouth and stretched to where he was, but I pulled it back with force, my heart racing rapidly. How did a stranger end up laying beside me on the bed I was to share with the man I was to marry in a few yours?If I could remember, I had my bridal night out with my friends last night, we had fun in the club and I was helped back to the room by my drunk friends, so why were things looking entirely different from what it was meant to be? How c
My eyes fluttered open, followed by an intense disoriented, groggy feeling and a pounding headache somewhere at the base of my head.“Mmh!” I moaned, squinting and shielding my eyes from the bright light that probed the whole room. The room was too bright, and I could hear the faint beeping sounds somewhere above my head. "Where am I?" I croaked, my voice barely above a whisper. I tried my best to sit up, but an intense and sudden wave of dizziness and pain forced me back down with another groan.I couldn’t tell what was going on, it was like an intense struggle between sophistory and reality. My senses seemed numbed and each movement helped put off the nagging, horrible feeling."Honey, you're awake!" a voice exclaimed beside me, chillingly close. A-wake? My feeble mind was trying to piece the words and get an idea of what was going on.I turned my head to the direction of the voice only to see a man rushing towards me. I flinched the moment he reached out and grabbed me, it seeme

DAMON. It took half an hour or thereabout before Chase finally recovered and was able to move about. The guards were already standing outside the door as soon as Axle informed them that things had gotten out of hand and she could be out any moment to destroy and kill anybody in sight. Thankfully, none of that had happened as we were all cramped in the same room, still breathing heavily from what had happened.Everyone was still huffing from the events that had preceeded the moment. Aria wasn't awake yet, and was lying on the bed. Nobody knew if she had passed out, or if it was more than that. But we could all agree on the fact that she was alive. We watched over her the whole night and got her to her chambers the next morning so that maids would clean the mess that had been made in the room. Nobody had an idea if she was also going to behave that way again soon, we all had to hope that nothing bad was going to happen. After that, we all retired to our rooms, making sure that Aria'
AXLE. "Yes, your Grace!" The guard yelled as he quickly scurried through the door. As soon as the room was free of the doctors and the guards, and it was only Aria and I, I turned to glance back at her. She was still lying down on the bed and the convulsions were still minor. I could only wonder how bad it could get. It looked as if she was battling so hard against invisible restraints. And despite the poison that was wrecking her system right now, her eyes remained distant, staring into the void as if lost in some sort of internal torment beyond my reach. Summoning the courage I had left despite the warnings of the doctors, I walked to her bedside and brushed a hand through her face, pushing stray hair aside and staring into her dark, black eyes. Then I spoke to her. "It's okay, Aria." I muttered, my voice was strained with worry. I couldn't imagine how all this was going to turn out. I just hoped it all went well in the end, but at the same time I had to be very prepared becau
TITLE: AXLE. "What do you mean by that?" I yelled at the doctor before quickly running to her side. I was breathing heavily yet again and my face was filled at sweat from the exertion of force all this while. I knew knew I was still going care of a lot of things before the whole thing ended by the way I wondered how a happy night had just turned into a. Very sad one. I leaned in and kissed her on the forehead, and immediately got off her to allow the doctors to continue their job, but I was sorely mistaken thinking that that was going to do anything. She didn't didn't seem to take note of my presence. She had stopped struggling now and was instead staring into the ceiling. Her eyes were bloodshot a s the veins in her neck were very visible. It seemed as though we could see the contamination work its way up and down her body without being able to stop it, it felt like we were being taunted."Don't ignore me doctor!" I growled at him, before looking at Aria
