*FREYA* While the pack was on lockdown, the search for Jet begin, a search party was organized with Hunter taking the lead as expected, I followed Kale, and Claire into town along with a few warriors, Hunter had ordered Morgana to stay in the castle in case Jet decided to come home. It was a miracle I was counting on as we roomed through the city. I stopped abruptly when I recognized the mall Jet had taken me to the first few weeks I arrived.I smile sadly looking at the empty stall while also having a few flashbacks to how I had stormed out when I found out he had left hickeys all over my shoulders and neck, I would do anything to have that Jet back again. My heart almost jumped out of my chest when I felt someone touch me by the arm."It's just me" Claire said seeing how scared I was. "Are you alright? We were leaving and I notice you were still waiting" She followed the direction of my gaze. "Nothing will happen to him" She assured me knowing who I was talking about."I'm not that
*FREYA* Jet finally managed to fling me off him, Kale hurried over to catch me before I hit the ground and then helped me back to my feet, I opened my mouth to thank him only to get distracted by the howls coming from Jet's direction, Sophie took a step back as he fell to the ground clenching his head."What is wrong with him?" I demanded not directing the question to no one in particular, as I made to reach for him, Kale pulled me back. I struggled to get away from him."There is nothing you can do to fight off his nature and if your blood manages to cure him, it will only be temporary. He evolved already, he is a Lycan and no matter how you try to tame him, you cannot" Sophie hissed at me, before I could think of a response, she vanished into thin air, teleporting back to wherever place she came from.The warriors had also gathered around, watching as their Alpha tried to fight off his true nature, tears flow down my face and Claire reached out to pull me into a hug until my sob an
*FREYA* When I woke up hours later, there was an empty spot beside me, I jumped out of bed hurrying over to the window, flinging the curtains aside, I gasped in surprise seeing that it was already nighttime, the full moon shining brightly above and I stared at it for few seconds, I was too stunned to react, all I wanted was a quick nap! Now I realized, I shouldn't have taken that nap at all.Closing back the curtains, I hurried out of the room in search of Jet, if he wasn't in the room then he must surely be in his study, my heartbeat picked up in a panic when I found it empty, I tugged at my hair in frustration not believing I had overslept.After searching all the rooms in his quarters and yet no sign of him, I decided to check in with Hunter in case he happens to be with him, I spotted Kale coming from the storage room and hurried over to catch up with him. He stared at me in surprise as if not expecting me to be awake. I sway a little as I stopped in front of him, I frowned wonde
*FREYA* Trying to keep my mind preoccupied with the noise coming from where Jet was tied up, with each growl that made the castle shake, I keep wondering how long the chains were going to hold him for. Murmuring an excuse under my breath, I left Claire where we were standing to announce to the servants to stay out of sight, the pack was already on lockdown so my only hope is that Jet won't go already killing people from the comfort of their homes, then go one is safe if that happens.As I stepped into the servant's quarters, it was busy with activities, with them walking up and about, I didn't realized that were that many servants around. It will be unlikely for Jet to think of attacking them, clearing my throat, I looked around for any sign of maid I might know until I singled Hazel out. Also spotting me, she left where she was standing and hurried to my side. "Milady! What are you doing here? Is there anything I can assist you with?" Another growl sounded again making everyone go
*FREYA* I waited for Hunter and Kale to get out of the way so I could go in, but before either of them could move, Jet punched the door so hard it went flying over the staircase, Claire and I hurried over to make sure they were okay. I made the mistake of looking up at the creature in front of me, fear paralyzing me on the spot immediately."Freya! Get away from him" Hunter growled at me, his voice pulling me out of my daze state. I slapped a hand over my mouth as a scream threatened to break free. I recalled telling Jet that no matter what he looks like he wasn't a monster, he might not be a monster but the wolf-man creature standing in front of me is every inch of a beast.A lycan, he was tall, very tall hovering over the rest of us, sharp long fangs that could tear through anything flashed across my eyes, his eyes were pure red, his Alpha eyes, shivering and choking back on a sob when he leaned towards me. I didn't dare move as he sniff me, the whole place was quiet and the only t
*FREYA* Hours later almost when everyone had left my room leaving only Hazel and Claire behind. I was too weak to even stand up on my own and Hunter had ordered me not to leave the bed, catching Claire by the arm as she made to leave. "Could you please mind link him? Tell him I have regained consciousness, he will come" I pleaded not believing Jet would decide to stay away even though he feels guilty. I wished he understood I would never blame him for something that wasn't totally his fault."He blocked us all out when we tried to" She answered giving me a small smile. "You do not need to worry, he shall be back soon" She reassured me before walking out of the door. I looked around the room wishing they had taken me to Jet's room instead where his scent seem to linger around, I could have that until he decided to show up. "That would be all Hazel, I'd like to lay down for a while" I lied, I wanted to be left alone."Alright Milady, if you need me I will be here" She replied, once th
*FREYA* I didn't want to look nor could I bring myself to stop looking at Jet as he fully transformed into a Lycan, the scene was so surreal like something out of a movie. With my heart beating loudly in my chest, I picked up the knife that had fallen out of his stomach earlier. The knife was barely halfway in when he had healed, his body punishing the object out. "You don't have to control your shifting or emotions, but you have to control yourself when you shift. And I will help you focus" I informed him, I don't know how yet but I was going to help him one way or the other.However Jet didn't look impressed, when I turned to look at him, he was still crouching down but still hovering over me. He glared at him, snarling in a way that would have scared me before. He still scares me, especially the way he was built, the canines and the fangs. It's safe to say all his Lycan features scare the shit out of me."Darren is on his way to attack the pack, I'm scared that Hunter and Kale won
*FREYA* "Hi Claire," I said coming past her in the hallway to get Jet's clothes, I didn't wait for her response before going into the room. When I came out a few minutes later, I still met her there and this time she was pacing around. I decided to give Jet his clothes first before coming back to ask Claire what were, although I had a feeling it has something to do with the war happening by the border."I think you should still help them out" I insisted, placing the clothes on my bed for him. I was about to straighten up when I felt him behind me, his erection brushing against my back. *Stay Focus Freya* I scolded myself. "Claire's sick with worry, you can see for yourself, she's pacing up and down the hallway" I added."If they do not recapture Darren before I'm done then I shall help out" He promised, placing a finger on my lips to silence me as I was about to protest again. After he was gone, I went to meet Claire out in the hallway and invited her in."Jet already sent them out t
FREYA I had two days until the full moon, a night I was dreading like never before. I ended up falling asleep by my dressing table and paid the price this morning when I woke up with a sore neck. I sat upright, pushing my hair back from my face, I stared at my reflection in the mirror and awful doesn’t even begin to cover how terrible I looked! Not only were there dark circles under my eyes, they were also red and swollen as if I had cried through the night. I touched my face, feeling the dry trace of tears left behind. Letting out a tired sigh, I stood up to go freshened up before Hazel or anyone else found me in such state. After having my bath, I came back to my dressing table to apply some concealer under my eyes, covering the dark circles. It’s situations like these that makes me really glad for the invention of make-up because what would I have done? I further applied some lip gloss to moisturize my dry lips, and then rounded up by brushing my hair. There was a gentle knock
FREYA By the time we made it back home, darkness had creeped it way into day time. Claire and Camille immediately hurried out to help lead the rescued humans into the mansion where they will be staying until Trisha can undo whatever damages done to them by the council before they are returned to the human world. Fortunately there wasn’t much to be undo as they just arrived and haven’t been taken to the lab yet. A part of me had hoped Jet’s leaving got delayed but when it was only Kake who came to join us, I felt a bit disappointed even though I understood everyone had to play their part. “Here.” I felt a tap on my shoulder, turning around, it was to see Hunter extending my dagger toward me. “I found it near the guards and knew you must have forgotten it there.” “Thank you so much! I had been worried sick thinking I left it behind, the council could trace it back to Rosewood.” I gestured towards the Rosewood seal on the digger, as a wave of relief washed over me. “That is one be
FREYA Trisha sensed an entrance with her magic as we drew closer to the fence, instead of the typical fence wall I was used to, this one was completely different. The entire fence was built with silver and I couldn’t wrap my head at how impossible that seemed except looking at it now, it was very possible. Since there wasn’t any visible entrance, Trisha proceeded to make one creating a portal.Once I signal to Hunter, he came to join us with the rest and together we matched into the building. Just as we anticipated, the floor was heavily guarded, nothing from outside but more from inside. I pulled out my dagger from my waist pocket, loving how light the metal is, we were almost immediately swapped on by the security guards, an alarm system blasting off in the distance. “Trisha, you need to deactivate the alarm, the rest of us we take care of the guards.” Hunter instructed and Trisha immediately dashed off in the direction where the sound was blasting from.I felt high on adrenaline
FREYA So much has been going on these past few days, after my freak out with Trisha the other day, I had joined her and Claire’s meditation sessions but that hasn’t been the highlight of it all. A message from one of Jet positioned spies came in yesterday, a tip about an abandoned warehouse where the councils will be dropping their new shipment. By new shipment, it meant where they would be dropping their latest batch of humans to experiment on and someone from the councils will be coming to transport them to their secret base. The plan was for us to get to the warehouse before any of the council's men or representatives made their way there. The thought made me sick to my stomach, rescuing the victims will be pointless if we don’t totally uproot the root of the problem entirely. “So, it has been decided, Claire shall stay behind to take charge of the Beta mansion where the rescues will be staying until they are taken back to where they came from. Trisha, Hunter and Freya will lead
FREYA My protest died down my throat as Jet moved in on me, instead of tying me up like he threatened, he caged me against the bed overboard with his body. I glared up at him, my face setting into an angry scowl. “Can we not do this?” I said, knowing I might fold with the way he was trying to distract me. “Will you move your things back?” “Not a chance.” I responded, letting out a sigh. “I do understand that you have a hard time expressing yourself and being vulnerable but my parents kept a huge part of their lives a secret from me and you of all people know how that turned out.” I reached to cup his face. “I hate not knowing the part of you that existed before me.”He closed his eyes briefly, relaxing into my touch before he completely pulled away a minute later to sit beside me. ”I did not let you in because I hate recalling those memories.” He glanced sideways at me. “I lost my parents at the age of sixteen after one of the council's attacks, it was not the first attack they mad
FREYA Reaching the stair-landing, a familiar figure blocked my path stopping me from moving any further. I frowned up at Kale, my eyes filled with questions I was too distracted to ask. I looked past him to see that I’ve lost sight of both Trisha and Jet. ‘’Is there any. Treason why you’re in my way?’’ I asked since he just stood there not saying a word or moving out of my way. He held up his hands. ‘’Jet saw you coming after him and mind-linked me to stop you, I had nothing to do with this, I’m simply following orders.’’ He answered. ‘’Why wouldn’t he let me come after him? he’s doing something dangerous right? I demanded and when he hesitated, I knew Jet must have told him not to tell me anything. After everything we’ve been through? screw that! Aftyer the disscussion we had this afternoon?At this point, I was so fuckiomng done! I took a step back, trying not to show how affected I was by what I’ve just learned. ‘’Very well then, I’ll return to my roo, Jet can do whatever the h
FREYA I went back inside feeling better about the whole thing. I decided to stop at the library first to check out the new books Hazel told me about. It was salked up on one of the tables at the entrance, I went through it reading the title and everything. I ended up giving up soon after because I couldn’t get my mind to focus.Instead I pulled out a chair and sat down, my mind drifting back and forth between talking to Jet or giving him space to process what happened. I didn’t want him to feel like I was forcing him to open up when he wasn’t ready. I recalled the first few days of his escape from the council lab, he had nightmares about it for weeks.I didn’t want to imagine the thoughts of Claire going there, an idea suddenly occurred to me. I left the library and went to Jet’s study instead, hoping to find anything on Xavier Jacob. Although he was long dead, saying his name out loud felt like a curse. I looked over my shoulder as the door opened behind me, expecting it to be anyo
FREYAI re-adjusted myself on the horse trying not to slide down as it jerked forward; however, my dilemma seemed to be a source of entertainment for Kale, who kept laughing and making jokes about it.’’This place is simply breathtaking.’’ Claire’s remark caused me to look sideways at what she was referring to.My heart constricted with a wave of sadness at the awe in her voice, not just because it wasn’t beautiful but because she doesn’t remember it. Each time we've gone riding in the past, we’ve always stopped here to enjoy the view while other times, we came here for a picnic.‘’I know right?’’ I agreed knowing she would be expecting me to say something. Hoping this might help her recall something, I tried to smoothly get down my horse but somehow my leg got tangled with the sandals.’’Luna!’’ I heard the other gasp of concern as I managed to kick my leg free but ended up on the ground. ‘’I’m okay, this is just the universe way of telling me it’s time to learn how to ride.’’Claire
FREYA I opened my eyes, a bit surprised to see Jet still asleep. Unusually, he leaves early in the morning to attend his duties as an Alpha, my lips twitch with pleasure as I recalled last night. Blushing, I reached out to sweep the hair that had fallen over his forehead in his sleep, my hand stilled when he stirr, as I didn’t want him to wake up yet. Feeling satisfied, I turned on my back, my thoughts occupied by the recent events that had been happening.In as much as I was mad at Trisha for lying to us, and now that I really think about it, I realize she must have felt she had no choice. I gave over at Jet, dreading the thought of ever becoming a werewolf.It took a while for his pack to accept me as their human Luna, a vampire queen is something I don’t ever see them accepting. Why do terrible things keep happening to me? especially when it seemed like everything was going to be okay? When my mind couldn’t come with an answer I gave up.’’How long have you been staring at me?’’
