Walking back into the room, he sat on the bed away from the sleeping Annabelle before closing his eyes as though he was dozing.But his eyes then flickered open, and his orbs had turned to golden colour but as he blinked his eyes they returned back to their normal sea blue colour.Turning behind him, he saw Annabelle still sleeping in the position he had left her in.Heaving a sigh, he rubbed his hands over his face, before shifting close to her and placing his hands on her nape as he checked her body temperature.With a shake of his head, he was about going down the bed when he felt her arms wrapped around him.Turning to peek at her, he saw that she was still sleeping with her hands wrapped around him.A slight smile then appeared on his face, but it disappeared almost immediately as though it never appeared.Her body temperature was too high, and her body was hot despite that it was raining outside and the weather was chilly.He tried pulling her off him, but chuckled when her arms
Squinting his eyes at her, he bent slightly towards her before standing properly."Did you really have to say all those things because of pills?""What's wrong with what I said? Or aren't you by any chance my mate?""You are unbelievable." "Oh! I get it now, you are my rejected mate…" she was interrupted as he immediately covered her mouth with his hands."Annabelle, Shut up!" He gave her a warning glance before taking his hands off her mouth."Are you taking it or not?" She asked in a whisper after some moments of silence, but got startled as he banged the counter where she was seated which resulted in making the glass cup slip from her hands and shattered into pieces immediately it came in contact with the floor.She stared at the pieces of the broken cup with grief and shock written all over her face, while her heart kept beating hard in her chest as she was scared of the consequences of what she had just done.Closing her eyes tight, she awaited whatever action he would take on h
She walked slowly towards him, and stood some distance away from him as she prayed silently that he wasn't going to bring up the medicine case."Now tell me Annabelle, how many times have you eaten ever since you started living with me?""Ehhh…. point of correction," she said as she ruffled her dark wavy hair before continuing, "I didn't start living with you, you abducted me.""What's the difference Annabelle? I abducted you and you are now living with me. Now answer my question, when I sent you to the pack house, how many times did you eat?"She remained mute as she tried recalling if she had eaten, but her heart dropped when she couldn't remember eating in the duplex she stayed in with Emily, apart from pizzas."You didn't eat right?""Why do you care?""Annabelle, would you answer my questions instead of asking me questions?" He looked unpleasant as he spoke."And besides, you know I care.""No you don't!""Do you think that I would have been here right now with you if I didn't ca
She used her fork to scoop more noodles into her mouth as she moaned, before covering her mouth with her hands due to how funny her moaning sounded."This is nice," she referred to her noodles as she continued scooping more into her mouth, unknown to her that she was being watched.He had stopped eating due to her moans, as they made him have a strange feeling.It felt luring and seductive that he had to confirm if she was doing it on purpose, but Annabelle being who she was couldn't do such things on purpose.As she covered her mouth with her hands, he was able to conclude that she didn't do it on purpose and that it had sounded weird to her, that was why she covered her mouth.But all of a sudden, she stood up from her seat, walked towards him with her fork in her hands, sat on a chair beside him and started eating his noodles."I really don't want to go outdoors," she grumbled as she looked at his food that looked as though it hasn't been touched, before looking at her own that had
Pushing away the duvet which was placed on her, she crawled down the bed with the bed sheet wrapped around her as she walked outside the tent. It was early in the morning but the stars haven't disappeared as they still twinkled in the sky.She couldn't find Lucas when she had woken up, so that was why she went out in search of him.They had mated last night, but she couldn't last long due to how weak she felt, so she had lost consciousness in the middle of their make out section.The thought of how they mated made a blush appeared on her face as she stared around.Their tent was large and also had a bathroom in it.It was fancy and everything was already prepared, to the extent that she preferred it more than a castle.Talking of a castle, she could hear the sound of melodious but ominous music coming from it.Their tent was some miles away from the castle while jade's own was closer.But she didn't know where their Alpha and Luna's tent was, as she wasn't sure if they'd be staying i
Fluttering her eyes open, she immediately sat up as everywhere was covered in a thick darkness that she couldn't see anything.Feeling the surface of what she was laid on, she squinted her eyes when she touched a very soft bed.Carefully going down the high bed, she walked slowly with her hands outstretched as she searched for the wall.And when she finally touched the wall after walking for long, she began searching for the door.The raspy breathing of someone made her hold in her breath as she stood like a mannikin and listened to the sound.It sounded like the breathing of a wild animal and the thought of being stucked in the same room with a wild animal made chills run down her spine."Ahhhh," she yelped in fear and fell to the the floor immediately the lights were turned on.But the sight of the room got her hypnotized as she stared around with her mouth agape.It was a very large room with different decorations and designs. It looked like it belonged to a princess.It was decora
She began having the feeling of adrenaline rush when she peeked outside the carriage window, staring at the elegant castle which stood in its own glory and shorn brightly.The door to the carriage was then flunged wide open by one of her soldiers who stared at the floor as he waited for her to climb out.After inhaling and exhaling for the tenth time, she held up her gown with her hands before taking the outstretched arms of the soldier and gradually climbing down the steps of the carriage as they walked towards the elegant door of the castle which was guarded by many soldiers.The door was opened by one of the castle soldiers and she walked into the dimly lit hallway which was guarded by many soldiers who formed two different long lines.She could hear the voice of a man speaking through the speaker as he addressed the audience.But she stopped when she heard the speaker call a familiar name."Alpha Alvin of the blue sea pack!" She heard the speaker say."Where is your Luna?" The spe
Their eyes met and they stared at each other silently.She could swear that she wished for the ground to open and swallow her as she felt totally uncomfortable with everything that was happening.But all of the sudden a slight smile appeared on his cold, cute looking face but disappeared as though it never came. And she wouldn't be wrong to say that she was the only one who saw him smile.He then stood up majestically from his chair, placed his phone on the table and stretched out his hands towards her.With a slight smile, she gradually placed her hands in his and jeez, his hands were so musculine and soft and she could feel it's warmth calming her nerves.He then rose her up to her feet before turning his attention to the speaker.She bit on her lower lips as she stared at their interwinged hands and couldn't explain the inexplicable sensation she felt within her as he played with her blue painted nails."You may all turn to your partner," announced the priest and they all did as h
As the priest awaited Lilith's response, she hesitated for a moment, her mind caught in a whirlwind of uncertainty. She had meant her previous words as a question, a plea for clarification. But the priest, oblivious to her intended meaning, assumed she had responded affirmatively and proceeded with the wedding ceremony.Lilith's heart sank as the realisation dawned upon her. She glanced around, searching for any sign of understanding in the eyes of those present.It was then that she locked eyes with Alpha Chul, her partner in this complicated journey. He was the only one who caught on to her confusion, his perceptive gaze seeing beyond the surface.A sly smirk slowly graced Chul's lips, understanding passing between them. He knew what Lilith had intended to convey, and he relished in the amusing turn of events. It was a fleeting moment of shared humour amidst the seriousness of the occasion.As the ceremony continued, Lilith couldn't help but feel a mix of frustration and amusement.
As his canines grew long and sharp, Chul bit into the in-between of Lilith's neck and shoulder, causing her to wince in pain and cry out. He licked away the blood from the bite mark before tenderly placing soothing kisses on her, trying to comfort her as she cried against his shoulder. However, she suddenly pulled away from him, pushing him away forcefully."I fucking hate you," she cried, her hands covering the bitten area as she continued to feel the pain."I'm sorry. Let me help you soothe the pain," Chul offered, genuinely concerned for her well-being. However, Lilith immediately stopped him from approaching her."I don't need your help," she said, her voice filled with anger and hurt. She tried to retrieve her rolling travel box from him, but as her hand brushed against his, she quickly pulled back, feeling a rush of spark between them."What's wrong with your hands?" she asked, her gaze fixated on his, her tone a mix of curiosity and confusion. She managed to snatch her box aw
Xavier could now see the similarities that he never saw in Lilith before. She looked more matured, and he noticed a certain beauty about her that seemed to be a combination of her own and someone else's. As he watched her, she placed the brush on the counter and ran her hands across its surface with a sad expression on her face. She then turned away from the mirror, picked up her rollable traveling box, and began walking out of the room.From the reflection in her mirror, Lilith had caught sight of Chul seated in her room, but she pretended as though she didn't see him. She avoided his piercing gaze and hurriedly moved toward the door. However, before she could open it and escape, he stopped her by placing his hands on hers, which were on the doorknob. This action made her freeze, her shoulders tensing up.Slowly, Xavier removed her hands from the doorknob and took her rolling bags from her. He gently made her turn toward him, but she kept her gaze fixed on the floor, avoiding his ey
Alpha Chul kept staring blurrily at Lilith's already dilated pupils."But your eyes... they are in shades of golden colors. Or are my eyes deceiving me because I'm about to die?" he asked weakly, his voice barely audible. His gaze remained fixed on her eyes, though they appeared blurry to him.Lilith's heart ached as she heard his feeble words. She knew time was running out, and the urgency in his voice only intensified her fear. "You need to leave, Lilith. I've mind linked the warriors, and they will come for you," he urged, his gaze locked on her dilated pupils. Slowly, his eyelids closed, sealing his vision in darkness.Tears welled up in Lilith's eyes as she cried out, "Alvin, please don't leave me!" Determined not to let him go without a fight, she hastily removed his shirt, tossing it aside, as if shedding the weight of their impending doom.As her gaze fell upon his bare torso, a gasp escaped her lips. It was a sight that tore at her soul—his flesh marred by numerous bullet wo
The war raged on with a ferocity that filled the air with the sounds of battle. Explosions and the clash of weapons reverberated through the night, creating an atmosphere fraught with danger. Lilith, seated in the car, watched as chaos unfolded around her. Fear gripped her heart, rendering her immobile. The sight of the violent conflict unfolding before her eyes overwhelmed her with a sense of terror.However, a surge of determination coursed through Lilith's veins as she recalled her promise to protect Alpha Chul. Summoning every ounce of courage within her, she took a deep breath and mustered the strength to step out of the car. Her bow and quiver of arrows hung securely behind her, ready to be unleashed.Stepping onto the battlefield, Lilith felt her heartbeat pounding in her ears, the adrenaline coursing through her veins. She found a strategic position, ensuring she had a clear line of sight. Taking a moment to steady her trembling hands, she focused on her task at hand.As she
Alpha Alvin walked into the gym room where the warriors were preparing for the war."If you're going to war, Lilith, you need to know how to defend yourself because I'll be at the battlefront and I can't take you there with me," Alpha Chul stated, his voice filled with concern as he walked around her. They stood in the spacious gym room where the warriors were preparing for the upcoming battle.Lilith shrugged, a hint of determination in her eyes. "I can defend myself, don't worry."He arched an eyebrow. "And how do you plan to defend yourself?""I can shoot arrows. I saw it in her memory, and I have a strong feeling that I can do it," she replied confidently.Alpha Chul motioned for one of the warriors to bring him a bow and arrow. The warrior promptly fetched the requested items and handed them to him."Alright, Lilith. See that target over there? If you can propel the arrow and hit the bullseye, then you can come with us," he explained, placing the arrows in her hands before steppi
Alpha Chul crouched to the floor as he felt a sudden pain in his heart, as though an important element in his life was about to leave."Annabelle, please don't leave me. Lilith, come and hug me now. Annabelle is about to go away from my heart... go away from there so you wouldn't get pulled in," Chul pleaded, his voice filled with desperation. He saw tears streaming down Lilith's face, and his instinct was to run to her, but in her attempt to reach him, her footing slipped on the edge of the cliff, causing her to fall backward.A surge of panic filled Lilith as she plummeted, but she managed to grab hold of a stone jutting out from the cliff's edge. Hanging on for dear life, she heard Chul's voice calling out her name as he peered down the cliff."I can't hold on for too long. I have no idea why I want to live now," she yelled, her voice trembling with fear."Take my hand," Chul offered, extending his hand toward her. As soon as she grasped his hand, a flood of memories rushed throug
Lilith woke from her sleep, her eyes fluttering open. She felt a lingering sensation, a memory that seemed vivid yet out of place. Her heart raced with confusion as she glanced around her room, realizing that she was alone."Was that my memory?" she pondered silently, her voice laced with uncertainty. The image of Alpha Chul, her mate, laying on her with her long hair caressing his face, had been so clear. But now, in the emptiness of her room, it could only mean that it had been a dream.Tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice cracked with a broken heart. "Was it all just a dream?" she murmured, her disappointment washing over her. The memory had felt so real, so intimate, and now it was ripped away from her.Frustration surged through her, overwhelming her senses. She yelled in anguish, throwing her cushion aside and succumbing to a torrent of tears. The weight of confusion and longing pressed upon her, intensifying the pain she felt.As she rose from her bed, voices began to ech
Immediately gripping the doorknob, Lilith forcefully swung the door open and rushed out of the room in a state of panic. However, her frantic escape came to an abrupt halt as she sensed the presence of the ghostly figures standing before her. Panic washed over her, and before she could gather her thoughts, she instinctively turned away, only to sense another presence behind her. Overwhelmed by fear and unable to think clearly, she dashed towards the nearest door she saw, desperately locking it behind her.Meanwhile, Alpha Chul sat in his room, drowning his sorrows in liquor while memories of his past with his deceased mate consumed his thoughts. After witnessing Lilith's terrified reaction in the woods, he became convinced that she had encountered a ghost. Observing her flee from the woods, he detected the presence of a rogue wolf nearby, prompting him to unsheathe his sword with difficulty. Determined to protect Lilith, he vanished into the depths of the dark woods, pursuing the t
