Check it out!Virtually yours,O’Chantal. 💯❤️-RAINA'S POV- As our math teacher completed writing an equation on the whiteboard for us to attempt solving, he turned and glanced at me, then at Venus. He blew out a hard breath as he placed the erasable black marker on the desk and then gave me a second plea with his green eyes, thinning his lips. I was his only option to deal with the distraught Alpha Female. Silence. When was our class ever this ghastly quiet? Venus’ devastating mood created a depressive beating cloud within the classroom that made it hard for everyone to concentrate underneath the hot atmosphere. Robbing the sun's radiant job of its rays that provided the natural lighting through the glass window panes, to feel less brilliant in its splendor. The tension in the room was unnerving for all and morbid fear reeked. She sat at the left end, by the window, with her head lying on the desk, totally in another world. When she wasn't whimpering, it was a melancholy groan that made the others cringe. I was seated on her
-RAINA’S POV- Extremely aggrieved, a list of names sprang into my head from the anger that riled in me. Sadly, he was not here to get the lashing of my whipping tongue. What the hell! He was being a dick! Blind-sighted, I gazed down the corridor cussing. Hanging up on me for some other chick was unbecoming. How do I make him pay for that? The communication was futile. I got nowhere. What's the point in telling Venus about it? Geez, I called Valen but he wouldn't talk about Vaheed. Only his jealousy perforated the conversation and then some bitch was trying to steal him away from me. Should I tell her that? I breathed out heavily with lavaging animosity. It was stupid of me to want to hear his deep sexy voice. It was so foolish to think that he'd give me special attention, since we are mates and all. I have only been daydreaming about him since I was thirteen years old. No big deal. My thoughts and emotions were searing, both racing and overcoming my mind with images of his ster
- -RAINA’S POV- From the mezzanine, Azara beckoned, "Your uncle's coming for Venus." After looking up at her, my eyes switched to the parking lot, and I did not see Uncle Duke's car driving up. As Beta, he ran the pack in the absence of Alpha King Vance. Faster than a bullet, I dashed up the stairs to help Azara with Venus. When I saw her at the same desk by the classroom window, she had gone limp and semi-conscious. Azara cocked her brows high, and lowly stated, “You look like shit.” Dismissing her, I fanned my hand and focused on Venus. I was well cognizant of how messy I must look in comparison to my orderly image, but I did not get the time to fix my appearance with everything happening this swiftly. Our classmates whispered and buzzed with murmurs. Werewolves do not get sick unless poisoned with components of silver and wolfsbane. High-ranked wolves had better tolerant levels than those lower. Therefore, it unnerved everyone to witness this happening to the Alpha Princess.
-RAINA'S POV- Furiously speeding through the not-so-busy town at 100 mph, I tailed the female biker, passing several skyscraper buildings through the town. The prey used the idling traffic on the stretch to her advantage, zipping in between vehicles. As challenging as she was trying to make it when she disappeared in front of a slow-moving green garbage truck, my determination soared with a satisfied look at the gas tank being half-full. You are not getting away, I thought to myself as I slowed down to 70 mph. You messed with the wrong she-wolf. Turning the steering wheel to the right, I changed lanes, then to the left and back again to overtake the garbage truck and picked up speed. Jamming my horn with the heel of my palm, I tooted for the two sluggish vehicles in front to clear the way for my crazy fast driving. Of course, they pulled over and told me derogatorily about the body parts that I had. "Up yours," I whispered, though they could not hear me because my window was up and
-VALEN’S POV- My mind’s been stuck on Raina all day today, so I went for a run despite the wax-melting sun. Through the bond, I knew that she wasn’t alright. Yet, I cannot bring myself to go near her. It was not neglect when there was good reason to stay away. Without a doubt, she’d be mad. I expected to get a full dose of her flogging tongue when I saw her next time. I’ll deal with that when the time comes. The sanity I had was dwindling because of this shitty situation. It was radically breaking me down. After the ritual, I did not mean to leave her without a word. I was going to apologize when she called me on the phone this morning but the mention of Vaheed’s name rifled my anger. It was bad enough that he was creating problems. I was going to put him on a fucking leash. Today was one of those days when I refused to think of my harebrained brother. Fuck! What the hell had he been thinking about? Careless and asinine. Returning to the home base on the island, I morphed back to
- - -RAINA’S POV- “You don’t get to die today.” At some point before the collision with the truck, a hand smashed the window, grabbed the collar of my green blouse, and vehemently yanked me from the car. I flipped in the air in an icy paralysis. The piercing sound of the calamitous explosion rendered my ears deaf with a sharp ringing. Glass shards like bullets sprinkling the air glittered maliciously from the glare of the sun. The resplendent sky graced my sight for a split second before the lush green tree tops and then collided with the solid brown dirty ground. Thud. As hot metal and splinters rained all about me, the smell of burning rubber and gasoline burned my nose. The tanker truck jackknifed and exploded. “Oof!” I swore I broke a rib. Blood trickled down my forehead, warm and sticky. I stared at the mangled wreck that had once been good vehicles and a dreadful lump developed in my throat. A second explosion thundered and I swiftly dropped my face on the grass with my
-VALEN'S POV- "Why should I sit and listen to this crap? If you want to rip my head off," I dared him, "Go ahead, but I'm not going anywhere." I yielded to the desire to smash something by lifting the wooden chair and throwing it into the wall and looking at my father square into his obstinate, unfazed green orbs. Something warped in my gut, dark and sinister. Dad leaned back into the large leather-grey executive chair with controlled calmness, folding his arms across his chest, silently allowing me to vent in front of the large black U-shaped office desk at the home base. With a frown, Devin rose from his chair to be away from me, his body tensed. Standing on the left side of the casement window that allowed most of the newly radiant morning light into the circular-shaped office of pine-green, blue-gray, and champagne-silver colored schemes. There was no need for Dad to come to Wolkrane Fortress. My assignment to manage Alpha Camp, where I was training the future Alphas from aroun
-VALEN’S POV- “Mate!” Unbelievable! Raina was not here. How could she be? She had school. Raj wasn’t the kind of father to let her miss class just to take her here for a visit. "Go to mate." My wolf, Zeus, demanded. "I want my woman." Now was not a good time for her to show up. Especially with all the Alpha males that were here with the unmated ones desperately trying to sleep with the fifty-one Alpha Females here. When they failed that route, the female Omegas sufficed. They would maul her. Although, I was sure that her visit would be brief. My heart terribly longed to be with her. My sweet, delicate, aroma-appetizing Bluebella. In her presence, I felt complete and once we parted, it was like a hollow lived inside of me. We yearned for her. My wolf perked up with expectancy of seeing her now. I forcefully pushed him to quiet down. Reflecting on her, I felt a glitter of joy etching into my hard facial features in hopes that she would walk into the office. Suddenly, I craved for h
RAINA’S POV-"She attacked me." Mercedes lied, curling into a fetal position with her hand on her stomach, pretending to be in serious pain.“That’s not true.” Again, the rage pulsed through me and I struggled against Valen, wanting to get back to hitting her. "Let me go, Valen. Let me go, and I’ll give her another good black eye.""Raina!" Valen shouted in my ear.I huffed and stopped when I felt him tighten his arms around me. When I relaxed, he let me go and turned me around to face him. His eyes scanned my face and when it landed on my bruised arms, his emeralds darkened.His jaw ticked when he turned to look at the she-wolf on the ground. "Mercedes, mind telling me how your Luna got bruised?""I don't know." Mercedes wheezed, sitting up and clutching her abdomen. "She almost choked me to death.” She gasped, dramatically. “I can’t breathe.""You'll live," Valen responded indifferently. He turned back to me. "Go back upstairs, Raina. I'll deal with you later.""But it wasn't even m

RAINA’S POV-“You must be bored out of your mind.” For a brief moment, Mercedes' brows furrowed deeply as she tried to analyze me. Then she sighed loudly and shooed me with her hand. “You are excused, Raina. I seem to have misplaced my interest in anything that you have to say.”"My words are for her, not you." It sounded pathetic to me as well, but it was the truth.She eyed me skeptically and rejected with disdain in her voice, “No. Your chatter is not on my to-do list.”Thankfully, I spotted a ring of keys on the wall and grabbed it. I fought with the faulty lock until I found the right one and swung the door open.Her expression quickly changed to down-right mistrust. "What do you want with my wolf?" she snapped."She’s mine." I stepped inside the cell, pulling closed the metal grill door behind me.Unafraid, she stayed seated, and her eyes lit up in anger. "Not yours,” she protested bitterly. "I pity you. Fucking pathetic.""Your habit of wanting everything that's mine is infuria
RAINA’S POV-“Thanks, Rai,” Venus sat up in her bed in her green, stain nightgown and gently massaged her left wrist in an up-and-down grip.Holding up the black bunny cuffs on my finger, I asked curiously, “Why were you tied to the bed? Don’t tell me that you were into some bondage sex, and he left you like that?”“You know very well that it would be the other way around.” Venus giggled, deflecting with a tilt of her head to the side.My interest was aroused by the untidy waves and ringlets of black hair that shrouded the sides of her flushed face and her eyes were puffy like she had a rough night.I jangled the cuffs to demand an explanation.“Which man would be brave enough to sneak into the Alpha King’s mansion to impale me with his ding dong.” She tapped her cheek and mischievously smirked. “But you know, that’s not a bad idea. I’d like to know what sex feels like before I’m one hundred years old.”“Okay, princess. But explain the cuffs.” I narrowed my eyes at her. I simply had t
-VALEN'S POV-Materializing in the darkness at the foot of their king-sized bed, I found my parents spooning in a cuddle, deeply sleeping.Dawn's light hadn't graced us yet, but this was important, so here I was. I tried not to startle them, although they had to have smelled my presence through our wolves’ kin bonds.“Mom. Dad.” I kept my voice soft enough.With a snap of my fingers, I flicked the ceiling light on without their permission. The illumination flooded the vast, opulent master bedroom. This should spring them up."Valen?" Mom complained groggily, squeezing her closed eyes. She scrunched her face, lifting her hand to shield her eyes from the slap of the brightness.“Grrr,” Dad growled his annoyance and muttered inaudibly. He kept his eyes closed as a sign that he was not going to entertain me. His strong muscular embrace tightened around Mom's waist as he buried his face in her neck.They made no move to see why I had disturbed them like this, but I wasn't going away.“Dad,
Hello Lovelies,I though I would have been able to upload a chapter by now, but as it is, I can hardly find the time to do so.As mentioned some time ago, two relatives passed away in previous months. The first funeral will be this weekend and the second will be held the Saturday before Christmas. As such, there is a lot of preparations to do as well as to accomodate and entertain guest and visiting relatives.Therefore, I am here to apologize about the delay in chapters and kindly ask for your understanding because this month is not so merry for us.The story will resume soon.Thanks for your patience.#Much love!Virtually yours,O'Chantal.
RAINA’S POV-Valen’s brows creased, looking baffled. Then he tutted dismissively, not taking me seriously.“It is taking a toll on your body, and you must do it before Gamma Blayne releases her from the cells,” I said, searching his face, but all I saw was confusion. I dropped my gaze, afraid of his hesitation.Slipping his fingers from mine, he lifted my chin to bring my eyes to his. “Tell you what, I’ll send Mercedes back to Canada.” My chest tightened. “It’s not the same.” I lowered my gaze to keep my composure. I focused on the steady beating of his heart to smother the ache piercing through mine."Baby, look at me.” He demanded my eyes and when I flicked them up at him, he added, “There will never be a third party to our mate bond." His conviction was strong, and I wanted nothing more than to believe him.“Stop denying it.” I retorted, nudging him in the side with my elbow. “Mercedes came on board sometime last night, and you didn't even stop her.”Valen became serious now, and
RAINA’S POV-Goddess, I truly hoped I was wrong, but where the hell were they? Plus, it would be better to be there with Valen when he found them, or all hell would break loose.The rest of the day went by quietly. Mom and Dad went off to their meeting with Alpha Vance which ended before dinner. It was a somber event at the pack house with none of the usual light-hearted conversations, just small strategic talk and planning, heightening security, and so forth.Gamma Blayne was sending the elites in deep to help pinpoint the enemy's location. The warrior’s role was more to defend and support where they could block any retreat and aid if they could.Worry scraped on my heart. This wasn't cops and robbers and the bad guy would get jail time; this was life and death.Dad was supposed to flank in from the west and attack with Valen, who would be coming in from the southeast. Their plan sounds solid, but that’s if Valen returned safely. Other than that, something was bothering me, but I hav
VALEN’S POV-“You think you can threaten me.” I blasted, pumping a rigid fist at him as the vermillion red in my eyes marinated in resentment. “You think Selene can save you from me? Never see Raina, my mate, again in any lifetime, get it?”“I will, and I shall,” Gustav challenged."Shut the fuck up," I boomed with such immense power that the temple shivered, and foggy dust shot backwards.At my fastest speed, my feet thrust from the ground and I darted at him, too quick for him to dodge the clasp of my hand clutching his neck. I hoisted him off the ground by his throat, letting his feet dangle as they desperately searched for solid ground, while mine took root on the floor."You feeling tough now?" I growled with hatred in my voice.The Worgen extended his claws and sank them into my arm, piercing them deep until they hit the bone and my blood trickled out, splattering the floor. Because of that, I hurled him to the ground. He coughed and gasped for air, while struggling to stand up.
