Elena went to her home, she was pacing around the room trying to find out what to do with Alexa, she was disappointed at her and she couldn't hide it. She was still thinking of what to do when her door opened and Damien came in smiling at her.“Are you okay?” He asked and she nodded her head.“You look like you are worried”“No I'm not, I'm fine” she replied while faking a smile she doesn't want to leave room for suspicion.“Hey, I hope you are not worried about my Mom, just give her time”“I'm not and I understand her perfectly. Now you should also get a rest. You have been working all day” she said and kissed him on his lips.She was about to go to her bed when he wrapped his hands around her waist and stared deeply in her eyes, his gaze so intense that it had her blushing.“Stop looking at me like that, I know what that look means,” she told him while smiling at him.“You should finish what you started” he replied and went ahead to plant kisses on her lips, the kiss became so inte
Alexa was surprised by Elena's sudden behavior, “Don't do what, my lady?” She asked.“I…meant.. you should forget about the water “ she replied while faking a smile.She wasn't comfortable but at the same time she doesn't know how to go about it. She decided to continue monitoring her movements, she wished Alexa knew the consequences of her actions, Damien won't spare her if he finds out about her rebellious actions.“ I heard Mrs Lauren came back from her hunting a few days ago” Carl asked Amelia over the phone.“You heard right, and that means our plans has worked ““How does her coming back affect our plans?” He asked with a harsh tone and he was already getting angry.“She doesn't like Elena which means she will send her back to you and I will have Damien all to myself “ she smirked.“What if it doesn't happen that way? I can't wait any longer, Amelia. We need to do something and separate those people as soon as possible” Carl can't wait any longer, he wants to have Elena to himse
Elena stands in front of the bathroom mirror, gripping the edge of the sink as she stares at her reflection. Her eyes are puffy from crying, but she quickly splashes cold water on her face, trying to erase any trace of her tears. Her chest feels tight, her heart aching from what she saw at Damien's room just hours ago.Damien and Amelia are so close, almost kissing. But she didn't say anything. She couldn't. Instead, she had left quietly, without a word. And now, here she is, pretending it didn’t happen.She closes her eyes for a moment, takes a deep breath, and straightens her posture. She opens the bathroom door, her face now composed, a mask of calm she’s forcing herself to wear.Damien is on the couch, scrolling through his phone, oblivious to the turmoil inside her. Elena walks in, her movements careful, controlled. She feels like she’s standing on the edge of a cliff, but she forces a soft smile as she approaches him."Hey. You didn’t wait for me?" Damien glances up at her, his f
A lot of things were running through Mrs Lauren's mind and one of them was asking Damien about it but on a second thought she decided to let him tell her by himself whenever he's comfortable with sharing the information.Staring through her window she took a deep breath, she knew that a lot of things are about to go wrong, she was scared of so many uncertainties like Damien getting killed when the truth finally comes out, the thought of that terrified her.He's going to lose the people he loves if anyone ever finds out , "I need to do something quickly but what can I do?" . Mrs Lauren's stomach flipped , it was as if her heart sank deep into her stomach.Elena has been keeping her eyes on Alexa but for the past few days she hasn't done anything suspicious. She walked into the sitting room and saw Amelia lounging on the couch, acting nonchalant after she walked in on her trying to kiss Damien. “That was quite the performance, Amelia. Do you always go around kissing men who are taken
Damien paced in his office, tension was thick in the air. His broad shoulders, usually relaxed in confidence, were stiff with the weight of what he’d just discovered. A storm was brewing inside him, the need to protect battling the rage boiling under his skin.He could smell her before he saw her,his mate, his heart. The sweet scent that always calmed him now only sharpened his focus. Elena entered the room, her soft steps barely making a sound. Her eyes, warm and trusting, locked on his, searching his face for answers to the questions she hadn’t asked yet.He swallowed hard, his wolf stirring within him, fighting to stay in control.“Is everything okay?” she asked, her voice soft but steady. She knew him too well, sensed the tension coiling in the air.His eyes darkened, the protectiveness in him flaring dangerously. “No, it’s not,” he admitted, his voice a low growl. He moved closer, taking her hand in his, needing to feel her warmth, her pulse proof that she was still safe, still
The moon hung high in the sky, casting long shadows over Damien's territory as he stood in the center of the pack's war room. His beta and a few trusted warriors gathered around him, awaiting his orders. The news had come in less than an hour ago that the ones hunting his mate were closing in. This wasn’t a distant threat anymore; it was real, and it was on his doorstep.The air in the room crackled with tension, but Damien's gaze was locked on the map spread out before him, his mind already moving through the next steps. His mate was in danger. Every instinct screamed at him to lock her away, to shield her from the world until the threat was gone, but that wasn’t an option. She wouldn’t accept that, and neither would he. They needed a real solution, one that would eliminate the danger, not just postpone it.“We can move her to the safehouse,” his beta suggested, glancing up at the him. “It’s remote and hidden”Damien shook his head, cutting him off. “No. They’ll track her there eve
The door closed behind him with a heavy thud, but Alpha Damien didn’t look back. His heart ached, knowing he had left Elena behind, but his focus now shifted to the threat that still lurked in the shadows. His wolf surged beneath the surface, eager to be unleashed, to hunt those who dared to come for her.He moved through the forest swiftly, his pack close on his heels. Each step was silent, his eyes scanning the surroundings, his senses attuned to every shift in the air. His Beta fell in beside him, matching his pace.“We have word they’re moving through the southern border,” his Beta said, his voice low. “The scouts spotted them an hour ago.”Damien growled, the sound rumbling low in his chest. His enemies were closing in, but they wouldn’t reach her. Not now. Not ever.“How many?” Damien demanded, his voice cold and controlled.“Three confirmed, but we suspect there’s more hiding in the trees, waiting for the signal.”“Good,” Damien snarled. “Let them wait. We’ll finish this before
The intruders retreated, sensing the raw, unchecked power radiating from Damien and his pack. They scattered into the darkness like shadows, disappearing before the fight could fully begin. It wasn’t fear of death that made them flee, it was something more calculated. A warning, perhaps, or a message that they were not here for battle just yet.Damien stood in the clearing, his breath heavy, fists clenched at his sides. His wolf paced inside him, howling for blood, for justice, but the enemy had slipped through their grasp. He could still feel the weight of the Enemies threat hanging in the air, taunting him. The promise of future danger made his rage burn even hotter.His Beta cautiously approached, sensing the storm brewing within him. “We pushed them back, Alpha. They didn’t want to fight tonight.”“They didn’t need to,” Damien growled, his voice thick with anger. His eyes darkened, a dangerous glint flashing in them. “They’re just playing with us. Testing how far they can go.”Th
