"Hey what is wrong with you! I gave my order, you are still sitting here, and I was thinking you are following to the counter!" I was in my thoughts thinking simultaneously about Vivian and Ryley. They hold so many similarities yet you can differentiate between them very easily.
Vivian is a composed, easy minded guy whereas Ryley is an aggressive guy getting angry on smaller things. "Valen! Are you alright!" Betty slapped me on the shoulder breaking my whole reverie into fragments.
"What!"
"Valen, you are strange."
"Huh!"
"I am talking to you but you are busy in your fantasy land— thinking about your charming prince, I guess."
She joked with a loud cluc
37After I was honourably asked to sit on the one person's wooden bed, Eric strode outside after excusing me. So it was not a lie. There is really something roaming in the darkness that chases people after the evening. If not then this guy who's been a hunter mentioned in our textbooks we study in the school would not have appeared like this.I have heard a lot about him. He is one of the most invited wolf that every pack want to own regardless he likes to stay away from everything. He does not want to become a part of any pack but wants to leave on himself.Probably A week ago when father mentioned his visit to our city on the dining table, I laughed at it because this guy is a rare sight to view. He is never seen but spotted hardly. "Hey, sorry for being late." He was back with a neutral pleasing smile.What I notic
38Valen's point of view...The leaves are starting to shred, the temperature is also falling. It is the beginning of the winters with the welcome of the month of December. I thought it will be arduous to spend a whole lot week without the bully gang around me.People will hate me, call me with names, still I want to confess that they become an integral part of my life. Life seems lifeless without seeing their poker faces. Somebody has quoted this perfectly, 'One needs enemies too, to call it a life'This one week felt awesome. No drama, no scars, there was nothing called as pain in this week, yet I felt incomplete. I have seen them around me ever since I opened my eyes may be that is why I hate them still want them!"Don't you have anything
39The beginning of December brought a wave of zeal and change in the school's atmosphere. Although The bulky gang was back and peace was gone still students managed to keep themselves happy.No, it was not because they did not bother anyone after their return but because of the announcement that their Principal made yesterday. A new subject is going to be included in the syllabus which is nowhere related to the books or history. But it is something to do with their personal lives."I missed our table." Clarke literally licked the rim of the table hugging it as his prized possession. "The trip was awesome, I forgot everything about the school but this canteen and our adda."The others agreed, they looked around at the other tables over the scared students, the windows, the staff busy in their work lovingly. No matter
40With every step Ryley's heart danced with a strange emotion engulfing his body. He was happy and excited for attending the class. One week was a whole long period without having seen her face. He kind of— nah, he literally missed her stupidity around him. His wolf, who fights with him every day did not budge him at all during the entire trip hence increasing the boredom he had drowned himself into.He feels hesitated to accept anyway, he did not boast the trip at all. It was a big failure. His girlfriend was with him, best friends and the most needed privacy yet something was missing. Something that has been an important part of his life! What? Know yourself.So when Ryley was just a few steps away from the entrance of his first class, he heaved a breath preparing himself to meet her. He straightened his tee making sure he looked handsome hunk from all the
41Shine's happiness was on the last point of bewilderment. He was happy that he finally got to meet their mate after a week's gap and bewildered for the way she welcomed them. He slipped down within Ryley unable to keep his excitement limited. "Now get up Ryley Shine I have got a lot of questions for you." She tried to pull him up with his collar but in vain.Her palm stiffened touching his back over the fabric of his tee feeling different. This guy never fails to hitch her! Any ways, she kept on stomping her foot near him until he did not stand up notwithstanding when he actually did it, she was under his cage being pinned to the wall with his arms severely pressing her in the concrete wall while his mountain like hard tough body grinding against her.Valen gasped staring him with perplexed peepers, innocently. She cannot help stop chewing her lips nervously as hi
42'You think it is a joke!''You could be on someone's target, damn it.''Do you even know what does this mean!''But you know what, Valentine! I would be the happiest person to see you dead because that is what you deserve'"Idiot, moron, mother fucker son of a bitch, Alpha's brat baby, bloody bully bastard, I hate you!" her throat felt dry and seemingly felt like there were thorn pricking her breathing pipe with every word she spoke out in vex. Her lips were pouty, eyes slightly pinkish due to the fact that she had cried at his rudeness but any way she held the packet of chip across her tummy stuffing the potato snack in her mouth despite being angry.The lamp light on the side table was on while the others
43Valen's pov...My body ached when I stretched it in the morning. The temperature has fallen badly. I have just stepped out of the bed to call it a good morning and get ready for the school. Slipping my feet into the slippers as I initiated a walk toward the window in order to pull away tur curtains and meet the sun, my fingers of the feet curled up.The slippers have become cold like ice. It was piercing my skin that I have to quickly remove them. I threw them under my study table opening the curtains. My night was a little serious but the day is equally lively. My excitement went overboard as soon as my pupils stilled at the scenery across my eyes. "Wow this is just beautiful!" everything was covered in thick fluffy snow.Even my once red car turned all white being draped into the cloak
44Ryley seemed shaken. His facial looks showed what he did was out of the heat of the moment. He himself couldn't understand as to what had happened to him, it was hard to stop himself when he saw Valen in the parking lot. The memories of the last night came back to his mind, and he ended up approaching her.It was all fun until he turned around and saw her face. Indeed, she was a piece of beauty that could become anyone's desire however least have he thought that she will become the hunters desire too. She will set his heart on fire in a way that he won't stop himself from following her every mood.Ryley learned that the other night. It was when he saw the hunter looking here and there before jumping up on her window and peeping inside. Thankfully it was locked so he could not go inside. Even Ryley would not have let that happen. He had taken his position al
chapter 92 "What is it, Dadda?" She calmly asked. Valen had this unusual feeling engulfing her body right after the moment she set her eyes on the alpha from the neighboring pack. She had not failed to register the sympathy in his eyes that he showed while talking to her during his introduction. She had heard it from Zander that there was an alpha friend of Ryley's father who helped Ryley rescue Valen, and today she saw him too. He was cool. His face was beautiful just like any other alpha like he was gifted with a gorgeous face by the moon goddess. His eyes held unsaid curiosity every time they looked at Valen. She liked the way he smiled at her but hated to see the atmosphere that varied after his arrival. Valen watched her Dadda twist his lips with a small smile. She never saw him acting so rigid before. There has to be some cause that was making him behave like that.
Bonus 2 (mbb)"Are you sure??" Jason inquired looking at Ryley's face in amusement as he nodded his head in a no. "You really don't feel anything?""No, I don't feel anything!" Ryley repeated his words to confirm it.Jason batted his lashes for a second and then diverted his eyes to his left to look at Ryley's father, "That is strange but awesome!" He exclaimed, taking off his spectacles, and placing it on the table across from him.Quietness blanketed the hall that was filled with alpha, his luna, the beta and his beta mate along with Ryley's friends in Jason's house. The news of Ryley's awakening from the coma brought about a wave of happiness.As the morning crept in, Alpha Hercules informed his beta and all of hi
Chapter 90/bonus chapter.***Soft rays of the sun crept inside Valen's room through the window. They filtered through the smallest holes of the thin curtain and spread, and cascaded on the tiles of her room.She stirred in her sleep as some memories of Ryley crossed her mind. She saw him hugging her protectively while his eyes fearfully looked before them. Valen saw themselves in the same place as that of that night in the forest when they lost Vivian during the perilous fight with Zalreth.Her lashes stuck closer, creating wrinkles on her forehead. Her facade was covered with sweat as Valen witnessed something hitting right through Ryley's chest until his clutch around her let loose and he fell beneath."Ryley!!!" She sat up on the bed with a jolt.Her wide eyes looked in the front while she grasped for air. Valen batted her lashes in order to
89Third person's point of view...Pupils fixed at the house across, Valen nibbled on her Lower lip. Nervousness was visible on her cheeks. She was trembling badly. The forming salinity of her weeping tasted bitter in her mouth. Now even her appearance seemed asking for mercy."I can't go inside Zander, I just can't." Her legs took some steps backwards as Valen cried.They were standing in the front of alpha Hercules' bungalow. The open window of Ryley's bedroom was where her irises continuously gawked. She was not ready to see him in the condition.Seeing him bedridden was the last thing she desired to see. Leave that, she even regretted agreeing to Zander and coming here with him."It's okay Valen, let's go inside. I promise nothing will happen." Trying to fit her slender palm within his, Zander assured her.He discerned how gravely she paled. She was not ready. It was though required for her to go inside. Only he knows how he convinced Jason to let her come with him.She is not unde
88"At least eat something Valen. Will your hungry stomach bring Ryley or Vivian back to you! Come on, show some bravery. You are a wolfs daughter, you have to be strong. This is nothing Valen. You have not seen the triumph yet and I don't even want you to see that. At least, you can stay strong. For Ryley." Jason caressed his daughter's hair as she was sitting on the railing of the window staring the darkening clouds.From last two weeks she has been sitting like this only. Her once chiming room have fallen quiet. The Valen who only knew how to laugh and keep other laughing— was lost.Vivian's death left her in deep misery. More than Ryley, the loss of a good and saviour friend traumatised her. It was an agony, he died for that mate who never loved him.Even Hazel, she realized his love while
87Two weeks later,"Alpha, the school will have the exams conducted from next week. And Principal wants to meet you for some time discussion." Keeping aside his files and removing his artificial specs Alpha Hercules allowed the watcher to bring the Principal inside.He was devoid of any expressions. Just that the life was going on after that unfortunate day.Yeah, two week to that cursed night and a lot has changed.The joy and glamour from within the Alpha's house have died. Not only did the same happened to his friends but also Valen, his mate.Some incident leave infinite marks on your memories. They are so strong and unbearable that the more you try to get rid of them the closer they get to your heart. You cannot esc
86Hazel's point of view...I never liked his eyes as they always held an unspoken emotion towards me.I was also dreaded by them since I knew my one view at them... And I would be spelled.No doubts he loved me, I had understood that right on that night when he had sneaked into my room and Forcibly had sex with me.However, it was not a forced sex though as I had wilfully granted him the permission to invade my limits.He never got to mark me. I never let him to. Even then, the pull was too strong that I cannot do anything when he came around.His smell was the first thing I would get to inhale whenever he neared me.A
85Valen's emotions were put at stake. This was unbelievable! She had thought it was Ryley who kept following her and stalking her all this time. But to her astonishment, it was this creature.His brown eyes was something she spotted many times in the darkness, and she thought it was him only who had always followed her day and night. But seeing this creature before her she can only imagine the worst now.It was so fucking unbearable as all this while she was being stalked by an entity who not Ryley. Her eyes blurred with new tears as she saw Ryley struggling to free himself from the red rope that was clutching him.Their love was put to the test of time. Zalreth was unstoppable. He was constantly chanted mantras in his language bringing more and more of red smoke to cover the area.&n
84His feet hit the ground under the dead silence. It was pitch dark with no source of light except the beam of moon light declining below on the land surface from between the trees. Ryley had the amethyst stone for the lightning purpose, he did not use it though.The reason was clear as anything— because, Zalreth sent his another message while Ryley was on his path to reach the woods land. The message was not really a message but a command that certainly directed him to not bring any source of light with him.It was the full moon night, and today, as per the details he had got from the library of Africa, was the night when Zalreth can acquire powers. That powers can come from the Rex Stone... That was why he asked for it today by any how. And he knew he can only get it if he takes away the rebellious Ryley's mate with himself.
