DanielI walked back to the packhouse feeling guilty for pushing Aria. It was the only way I could think of to avoid making a move on her. Her scent set my senses on high alert and I wouldn’t last long. Standing so close to her would make me do something irrational.I never expected her to fall and hurt her shoulder. She seemed in great pain. My instincts told me to pick her up and take her to the pack hospital. But I didn’t want to have any physical contact with her. I didn’t trust myself, nor Cole, who swore at me when he realised Aria had been injured when she fell.“Are you out of your fucking mind, Daniel? How could you do something like that? You were always gentle with the opposite se.x. What did Aria do to deserve such treatment? Are you sure that she provoked Lea? She seemed pretty sincere to me,” Cole was angry with me.“How can you say that, Cole? Do you mean Lea lied to me? Why would she do something like that?” I protested.“There’s only one way to find out and that is by
DanielAria’s eyes were full of accusations when she looked at me. She took a deep breath and averted her eyes from me.I felt a knot in my stomach, watching her expression. She looked so fragile lying in the hospital bed and I couldn’t help but feel repentant for how I had treated her the previous night.“Daniel, you should go check the training session. Jason and I will stay with Aria,” My father sent me away at the most crucial moment.I could not deny my father’s request and left the room, exasperated. Now that I was gone it would be an excellent opportunity for Aria to tell on me and then my father would surely demand an explanation.“I told you that your irrational behaviour would get us in trouble, Daniel. But something tells me that Aria won’t tell on you,” Cole said.“What makes you think that, Cole?” “I don’t know. That girl is different from the others in so many ways. Being a snitch doesn’t suit her,” My wolf seemed sceptical.I reached the training grounds and noticed tha
AriaI felt the steady hands of Daniel’s father bringing me back to my feet. I looked around; Alpha Jackson’s voice had caused a commotion. Luna Sarah, who was in Andy’s room, came rushing and my mother followed her.Shit! What a mess.“I am sorry, Alpha. This is all my fault. I was careless and almost fell again, and Alpha Daniel tried to help me,” I whispered. I lowered my head, trying to hide my flushed face and that my eyes had turned violet with lust after kissing Daniel. It was a feather kiss, but all my senses were on fire and I tried hard to get myself out of my difficult position.“For heaven’s sake Tania, what is it with you? Please help me control this feeling,” I mind-linked my wolf who huffed, irritated inside my mind and immediately backed down. When I felt my eyes turning blue again, I looked up and met with Alpha Jackson’s furious gaze.“Honey, what happened?” Luna Sarah asked, touching her mate’s arm.“Sarah, take Aria inside Andy’s room and check her out. Daniel, foll
Daniel“Dad, why don’t you try to get to know Lea? Why are you so hostile towards her? I told you I love her but you don’t seem to care. Please don’t give her such a hard time. Asking me to be Aria’s guard twenty-four-seven, do you think that’s appropriate? What will the other pack members think of me, their future Alpha? She is not even my mate for heaven’s sake,” I exploded.“You must do as you’re told, Daniel. I don’t care what others will think. I think I made it clear that Aria is our family’s benefactor. I won’t take a no for an answer, son. And if anyone has a problem with that, they can come to me to complain,” my father growled.“As for your girlfriend, she’d better get used to you being around Aria for as long as I think is necessary,” he continued and walked out onto the balcony, leaving me alone in the middle of the room.I left my father’s room and headed to Andy’s room. I needed to speak with Aria and put her in her place. I would follow my father’s orders but she would h
AriaI left Daniel’s room, not looking back and holding my head high. I would never let him know how much he hurt me holding Lea in his arms like that and giving me looks of hatred and loathing.He was in our room with another woman and I had to bear it. Because of him, I accepted Alicia’s terms and allowed her to tease and torture me as she wished to help me be with him again. And my ass.hole mate was with another woman sleeping in my bed, our bed.“Aria, how could you say those things to Lea? You said you are not interested in Daniel and compared him to fish! That was cruel,” Tania who barely held her laughter while I was talking to Lea was now laughing her head off.“Reverse psychology, Tania. Daniel has been treating me like shit, thinking I have a crush on him. I am so fed up with him and his arrogant attitude. Let’s see how he reacts after today. I will ignore him from now on and show him what it feels like to be jealous of someone you like. Let’s see how calm he can stay after I
AriaMy heart throbbed in my chest like never before. I feared Daniel would hear it and realise my true feelings for him. I had fought so hard in his room to prove that I was not interested in him. And now he had me pinned to the wall using his body, sending waves of pleasure all over my body. But I meant nothing to him. Daniel was so close, yet so far from me. I knew I had to stay strong and persistent to achieve my goal and I had just taken the first step towards my success. Daniel was jealous when I mentioned Darius.“Don’t even think about it. I won’t fight with my father over you again, mutt. I want nothing to do with you but will become your shadow for as long as my father wants me to. You will not ask Darius or anyone else for protection. No one should know what my father ordered me to do. No one except you, Lea and me,” Daniel hissed, releasing me just like he pinned me. Unexpectedly. Anger rose inside me again, making me lose control. I had had enough of his abnormal behaviou
DanielAria left my father’s office and I stood rooted to the floor, wondering from where she got the guts to ignore me and walk away. And the strangest thing was that I could do nothing about it. Was it because she was my father’s favourite, or was it something else, something incomprehensible to me?She wasn’t afraid to confront me and tell me off. How could a simple Omega, sorry Warrior, be so insolent to her future Alpha? Wasn’t she afraid I would punish her when I took my father’s position?“Apparently she is not,” Cole interrupted my thoughts.“And she said she would go where she felt wanted, which means where Darius is,” Cole clarified.“Shit!” I growled and left my father’s office.“Where are you going, Daniel? Aren’t you the one who said you want nothing to do with her? Why go after her then? What’s bothering you so much?” My wolf was being aggressive with me.“Cole, why are you defending that woman so much? I have been with Lea for so long and you never defended her to me,” I
Daniel“Alpha Daniel, are you jealous?” Her hoarse voice sent shivers down my spine as her hot breath caressed my skin. I looked down as she watched me with those blue eyes, still biting her lower lip.She didn’t seem scared at all. She was rather enjoying it and I flipped at the woman’s audacity. I was ready to tell her off when Cole took over, forcing me to do things I would never have done alone.I put a hand behind her neck and smashed my mouth over hers, kissing her and seeking dominance. Aria opened her mouth obediently and I almost groaned with satisfaction. It was the first time she submitted herself to me. I allowed my tongue to dance with hers and enjoyed her body trembling against mine. Aria placed her arms around my neck, hugging me and pulling me closer.Shit! That felt good, almost natural as if our bodies were destined to collide as if her kisses only belonged to me. My hand roamed under her top tank and stroked her bare skin, my fingers tracing her smoothness.My phone
