LUCIANI looked out of the car to the outside world. There were a few things moving in their wolf form. It reminded me that I had not been able to train them for some time now. The whole thing with having a mate was eating my time, and the fact that the North was still waging war didn’t make it any better. It was just so annoying."Drive fast, Eden," I grumbled.I sighed as I leaned back on the headrest as my brothers world slowly slid into my ears. My cheeks were still smarting from the blow, and it was just too painful. Were they right when they said that I had been too harsh on Andrea?But, how could I just ignore the fact that Meade had said some awful words about Andrea to me? It was just not possible one bit."First Alpha, is there something wrong?" I sighed as I pulled at my shirt sleeve. I had completely forgotten that Beta Luis had come with me. I shifted my gaze to him. He was just a few inches away from me, and he looked quite pale in a green shirt and black top. It remin
LADY MEADE I caressed my hand softly as I moved slowly down the path leading to the training centre. It was that time in the morning that I was told Andrea went to seduce my brother all in the name of keeping fit, and this time, I would not let her get away with it. Gosh! I couldn’t just stand her. Just as I was about to cross a path, someone touched me by the arm. I turned slightly to see it was Dawn. I cursed lowly, looking around to be sure we were alone before dragging him to the other side of the trees. "What the heck?" I snapped at him. He looked pensive as I released him, taking a step back from me. "I’m sorry, Lady Meade. I felt that this is the right time to tell you what has been going on around here. It’s important for you to know these things," he explained. I scoffed as I looked around once more. But, I saw nothing but trees, so it wasn’t completely a pain in the neck. I pulled open my fan and waved it in front of my face again. "Look, I would be the one to seek you
ANDREAI held Avery close to my heart with all the passion that I could muster. I had not realised how much I had missed her till this moment and it was so crazy. She was still the only person I could truly be myself with, and it would never change at all. I wouldn’t let that happen."Can you please let me go, Luna?" Avery queried in a cold voice that left me slightly shocked.I blinked as I pulled my hands away from her. It took me a moment to realise that she had not even bothered to hug me. Her face was as cold as ice, and I swallowed the lump in my throat."Avery, why do you talk like this? I’ve missed you, and I thought you did the same too. Is that not the reason you’re here too?" I asked softly.She scoffed. "I didn’t come to see you, Luna," she pointed out.A cold laughter pulled my attention away from Avery, and I found myself looking at Lady Meade. She was in a n all black gown and with what I could see, she was as irritation as ever.Lady Meade spared me a glance as she mut
ANDREA"What are you saying?" I asked at once.Avery shrugged. "I’m just saying what has been on everyone’s lips. What wrong did I do, eh?"I took a deep breath before siting down firmly on the chair. This was just too much. I could tolerate it when Meade made such comments because I didn’t expect anything from her, but when it came to Avery, it hurt more than I could even put into words.I slowly looked up at Avery who was frowning as she looked at me. "It’s just that I can’t believe that you would also repeat that question and talk to me like that," I mumbled.She sighed, and at the same moment the door opened. Lily came in with the tea. She smiled as she placed the tea on the shelf. I signalled for her to leave, and she did as I had told her. With Lily gone, I pulled my hair to the side easily. "You don’t see what you did wrong, do you?"Avery groaned. "What exactly have I done that you keep stressing on? I’m your friend, and it’s also my right to talk to you about these things. P
ANDREA I pushed Nikolai away slightly as I staggered backwards. "It’s none of you business if I do something strenuous or not," I snapped at Lucien. Taking a deep breath, I shifted my gaze back at Nikolai. He was looking confused at my reaction, and I instantly felt awful for treating him badly again in the presence of Lucien. He didn’t deserve that. "Nikolai, are you going to help me with the training?" I asked lamely. He shrugged in response. "I’m so sorry but I have to do some of my duties today. I have been neglecting it for sometime, so it’s important to fix things," he muttered. I nodded in understanding. "That’s ok," I mumbled. Licking my lips softly, I slowly stepped away from him, and tried hard not to trip on my own feet. I was fond of embarrassing myself and that wouldn’t do today. "I should go back to my room them," I managed. "But..." I shook my head with a soft smile. "Get on with your work and don’t worry about me. Take care, Nikolai," I whispered as I turned ar
LUCIANI looked at Andrea as I held her in my hands. She looked completely stunned that Nikolai was standing at the door, and that annoyed me a bit. She had to focus on me, and not him. With a grunt, I used a tip of my finger to stir her face to mine. Her eyes were slightly unfocused as she looked at me."Andrea, I need this," I whispered as I tried to lean towards her, only for her to kick me lightly on the feet. Her gaze moved over to Nikolai once more. "Nikolai, let me explain," she whispered.I stared in amazement as she ran to his direction, but he was fast as he walked out of the training centre. What the fuck? Why did she feel so guilty because he was here? She was my mate, and I had the right to kiss her, hold her and do whatever I wanted with her. So...My feet connected to the tires on the floor, causing my hands to fly to my mouth. I hate this! A little voice in my head informed me that I had done the same to her a few days to her. And, I realised for the first time that
ANDREAThis can't be happening again. I couldn't allow Nikolai to be so mad at me for the second time in a row. I had gone through a lot to make him calm down and talk to me, but everything was going down the drain."Nikolai!" I called the moment I stepped out of the training centre.He didn't turn to look at me, instead he walked as fast as he could down the path that led to the fountain. My heart literally broke at the coldness I was experiencing from him. This was definitely not fair.I bit my lips as I looked back at the training centre. Lucien was in there, and he was pissed. Though, I didn't care. He was the reason I was not able to bond with Nikolai. What was he thinking when he kissed me? Maybe, he was a sadist. He had said so many awful things to me, and I was an idiot to kiss him back in there. Damn it!With a grunt, I looked back at the path that Nikolai travelled in. How could someone so quiet have so much anger inside of him? I had to pacify him. With that thought in min
LUCIAN"Ok, man! There is some news about what happened in the North Area this morning. They were trying to distribute the..."I was softly tapped on the shoulder, and I looked up diatractedly. Raul had his brow shot lightly in defiance. "When did you come?" I queried, truing not to show how much he unnerved me."A long time ago. Where are you lost, brother?"I sighed as I shrugged Raul hand off, looking back at the video in front of me. "So many things are going wrong, Raul. There is an enemy in the pack, and we don't even know who it is," I whispered."What are you talking about?"I shoved the phone into his hands as I leaned back on the chair, slightly anxious for him to watch the video to the end. I may have some issues about sharing my mate with my brothers, but I knew I needed them to sort out this mess. I couldn't ignore that I couldn't handle any of these on my own. It was just not possible for that to happen."So, I don't see what you're trying to show me, man," Raul was sayi
