On our way home, we saw a crowd gathered in the middle of the road. Luke said he wanted to check what was happening and I followed him because I was also curious. In the middle of the crowd, were two girls fighting, the girl on the floor was young and was beaten blue-black by someone older and no one did anything about it, they just stood there and watched a girl get bullied.

Anger bubbled inside of me as she kept kicking the innocent girl on her stomach. The girl on the floor was too weak to do anything. It felt like I was seeing myself in her. I wouldn't stand and watch this. " Stop it" I shouted. Everyone turned to look at me, even the blonde tall girl who kept kicking the girl stopped to look at me.

"And who do you think you are to stop me?" She looked at me daringly. I was a nobody but that doesn't mean I should watch her bully people.

" If you wanted to display strength, why don't you bully someone of your age" I asked her. Stepping forward into the circle the crowd had formed

    "Because I want you here with me," he said his eyes looking directly at me, my inside turned into mush as he said those words. I think I am falling in love with him but who knows it might just be a mere physical attraction."What about her?" I asked. I shouldn't be asking him this question since I was the one who told him that I wanted nothing to do with him. "You claim I am your mate, your other half, the one your soul longs for yet you go around having betrothed"" I never knew I had a mate, sunshine" he coaxed. My stomach flipped in excitement at the endearment, that I almost forgot what he said. Oh, I seem to forget no one made him believe he could have a mate."That is not an excuse" I lied. I turned my attention to his bedside table. There was a juice carton there but something told me it wasn't juice that was there."I know," he said. His lips had a hint of a smile on them, but his eyes showed how amused he was as they sparkled in the bright light."But she doesn't know I am you

    I was gulping down the third cup of beer when Charlotte came and pulled me away from Evan who had been drinking so much that I lost count of how many he had to drink. Though he looked fine and just a bit drunk, I was so worried about him that it felt like I was the one babysitting him. Charlotte continued to drag me to where people were dancing. I was a bit tipsy but I could feel adrenaline pumping into my veins making me feel so much alive. All my nerves were awakened, it felt like I took a sugar rush. My body followed the rhythm of the song, whining and twerking, jumping and shouting at the top of my voice in excitement. I missed feeling this way. I was so lost in the music and immersed in ecstasy it provided, that I didn't know when I started rocking someone behind me.My mind went to Adam thinking of how he would have reacted if he was the one behind me or if he saw me rocking someone. I could hear the stranger behind me egging me on until Evan came and pulled me away from him. He

    I met Adam and Evan in the living room. Adam was holding a magazine and sipping on his coffee while Evan was reading Temptest by Shakespeare. I walked past them to the kitchen and made a pair of sandwiches, put them on a plate with a cup of tea. I went to the kitchen to eat my phone. I took the remote and switched on the television. I changed the channel to a news channel and began to eat. I was done with my food sipping on the tea when they finished their break and resumed the new. My picture was on the television. "Welcome back. Denver Hart just declared his wife, Alaia Hart, missing. He said if anyone was able to find his wife they would be rewarded with Three thousand dollars...." I choked on my tea as I heard that. He never gives up, does he? I could hear the blood rushing in my ears as fear gripped me, Are they going to hand over me to him because of the money? I looked at Adam but he was concentrating on the news, I should have changed the channel but my hands were numb. Why c

    I went into the empty house feeling pains. I don't understand why the wound is not healing, I have had a lot of injuries since I turned though not as deep as this but they all healed immediately.I signed as the water cascaded down my body washing away the dirt and blood and flowing down into the drainage. Today was very eventful; with the news of Denver searching for me, my hunt with Adam which l enjoyed, and then the ambush. I feel like I was growing stronger each day, like today I never imagined I could fight three wolves and then there was that time when I beat Larissa. I came out of the bathroom wrapping a towel. Then I fished out a light and free cloth to wear and laid them on the bed.' please, can you send me a doctor' I mindlinked Adam.'what is wrong with you? Are you injured' he asked concerned. I didn't want him to leave what he was doing for me and I contemplated on how to tell him. ' Yes, but it is a minor injury. I just want to ask him something' I said hoping he would

    I rushed into my closet and picked out a sundress and flat sandals. I came out of the closet and went to the dressing table to brush my hair. After making sure it was smooth enough. I packed it in a ponytail all this while Adam lay on the bed watching me."I am done," I told me standing up." Took you long enough" he stood up and left and I followed behind him. We entered the room to see Evan drinking coffee, his eyes drooping like he didn't get much sleep. I smiled, he looked very cute. I remember when I first met Evan, He had been so cold and mean to me, I would never have imagined him to be this kind of person. Jovial and carefree."Finally! I thought I should just go back to bed since you guys were gonna take forever to come downstairs" He exclaimed. I laughed. " Oh come on, I am sure you don't need a bed, you were sleeping okay while standing," I said smugly. He growled at me and that made Adam chuckle as he went to the fridge. Evan's eyes bulged out from the sound." Did...did

    We all talked and joked about a lot of things as we sat and ate the pasta I made. Evan complimented my cooking and so did the rest. While talking, Luke said he would like to spar with me one of these days. I laughed and nodded. My wolf shook in eagerness for the challenge. She wanted to prove to them that she wasn't a pup and we were both strong. She eyed him from head to toe, for a weakness. My thought suddenly gravitated to Adam, wondering what he was doing in his office if he was even in this house.'Hey, where are you?' I asked through Mindlink drawing the connection I have with him and speaking into it. It was getting easier day by day as I got myself used to it. It was just like a speed dial the more connected or closer you are to people, the easier it is to mindlink them. Adam said something about creating a mindlinked group where you can talk to more than one or two persons but I still haven't gotten to that level only because he hasn't taught me yet. I am going to tell him to

    He gripped my waist and lifted me, leading us to the bed and laying me softly on the bed while his mouth remained glued to mine. Oh god....he tasted even more than I had imagined, honey and coffee with a bit scent of blood. Addictive. His mouth absorbed my moan as my hands winded themselves around his neck. I hooked my legs around his waist, pulling him impossibly closer. We were crushed against each other yet I felt I couldn't get close enough.There was nothing awkward about the kiss. It was nothing like my kiss with Denver. It was wild and feral. My pent-up desire and passion exploded into a euphoric wave that traveled all over my body. It was like we were starving for each other. A growl rumbled deep from his chest as his finger delved into my hair. His hand gripped the back of my neck and he used it to control and angle my neck. His other hand grazed down my silk-covered back and then traveled to my now-exposed thigh as my dress was ridden up. Goosebumps bloomed across my skin an

    "You didn't...what?!" As his words sinked into my head and I became bereft of word. I opened and closed my mouth not knowing what to say to that. I thought we were friends. We haven't even known each other for a week, so how the hell did he fall in love. What exactly did he see in me. He signed in disappointment when he saw I wasn't going to reciprocate his feeling." It is fine if you don't feel the same, I understand it is to fast to feel the same way but I am happy I got it out".he said and continued walking. I kept quiet as I walked behind him. When we got back to the clearing where the party was held, he turned around to look at me." Be careful, Adam just wants to get under your pant, he can never commit to you. He has a betrothed and he will always go back to her". He said. I wanted to ask him other question but he shifted and left. I decided to let him run it out since I could not do anything to help me. Luke loves me. Is that how easy they fall in love here. Is that why I can

    She understood what I meant and gestured for me to wait before leaving. She came back with her bag, she already removed her apron and was talking to the other woman before waving her hand for me to follow her. I stood up and caught up with her." Let's start with Sandra's house. She said she's got a new job. Her house is not far from here. Come on" she said increasing her pace. It didn't take long before we got there. It was a small cabin with a small garden at the side. The place looked welcoming and well taken care of, but it wasn't until we walked up the staircase before we thought otherwise. The wooden stair creaked under our weight with each step we took. Kaitlyn was the one who knocked on the door while I stood beside her. We waited for a few seconds before the door clicked open to reveal a woman in her mid-thirties. She was wearing a pair of pants and a blue top that had a patterned rose on it. Her blonde hair was braided making her look very young the first thing that crossed

    There are a lot of problems on our hands now and I don't want to add grudges to it. I knocked on the door of Jack's house. I know Jack would be in the training ground but I was hoping Jerry would be at home. I smelled him in the house immediately after I got here, so I knew he was deliberately not answering and that is why I continued knocking persistently. ClickHe unlocked the door but didn't open it. after I realized he wasn't going to open it, I turned the knob, opened the door and walked in."What are you doing here?" He asked me. I turned to see him behind me closing the door. " I wanted to come see how you were doing" I bit my lower lips in nervousness. His eyes flickered at the motion before he went back to drinking a glass of scotch. Chugging down the whole thing. He took the bottle and was about to drink from it when I snatched it from his hands." I am fine" he slurred. Am I supposed to believe that when he is drinking this much and there is a visible bag under his eyes?

    I don't know what he was about to tell her, but I knew it wasn't going to be good. So as I watched her walk elegantly back to her bed and crossed her leg, my smirk grew wider than before. The place was wide and spacious, there was an open kitchen by the side and two other doors which I assume were the bathroom and closet. The whole walls were painted white and there was no window. " Can I get you something?" She asked. Evan shook his head. I knew she wasn't asking me so I didn't bother to answer. I could feel her glaring at me but instead of exchanging glares, I looked at the room. It was simple and elegant. There was a vase sitting at the side of the room, filled with colourful plastic flowers that were in contrast to the white wall adding to the beauty of the room. There was a beautiful painting on the wall, near the bed. It was a painting of a beautiful woman holding a demon baby in her hands. The baby had furs sprouting out of the skin on his chest hands and face, and its eyes w

    Adam came into view with anger contouring his face. He looked at us and everything we had prepared down. He looked back at Jerry and before I could open my mouth to say anything, he grabbed him by the neck. " What the hell are you doing with my mate." He snarled at him. I stood shocked as Jerry started to say something to calm him down but he wasn't having it. Wasn't I the one he was supposed to be angry at? I should be the one he was supposed to strangle, and whip until I was screaming out my apologies. " I said what the hell were you fucking doing with my mate," he asked again. But Jerry couldn't bring out sound as he struggled to take in breath. When I saw how white he was turning I figured out I had to do something or else he was going to kill him." Adam, it is not what it looks like, trust me," I said. I struggled to remove his hand from Jerry's neck. He released his neck and Jerry fell to the ground inhaling hair greedily. His face was white and his neck was red. I dropped my

    'Evan, open up' I mindlinked him.I placed Adam's arm around my shoulder and my hand around his waist to help him support his weight even if he assured me he was fine. To other people, it would look like I was the one getting support seeing as he is huge. When the door opened, I could see the warriors all watching us in shock and some in relief as we passed. Evan rushed to the other side of Adam. He was only a few inches shorter than Adam, so it was easier for him than it was for me. 'Are you hurt?' Evan's concerned voice rang in my head.'No' I answered. Adam removed his hands from mine, as Evan put his other hand around his shoulder. The shirt I wore was bloody, but there was nothing I could do about it until I got home. We all walked together back home. The whole place was still quiet and everyone was locked in their house. I felt guilty, even if I knew it wasn't a bad thing to ask questions. When we got home, we both walked him to his room. Evan left after he had assisted him to

    "Ok, I will tell you."Bracing myself for whatever he was going to say. I could hear a dramatic music playing in my head."When my father died, Beta Enoch took over the post because I was in a dungeon". He confessed. His eyes stared at my hands that I held together on my lap. Dungeon, why would they put him in a dungeon? What did he do?" What did you do?" I said quietly, uncertain if I wanted to know about it. " I killed my father" I stood up in shock looking at him with wide eyes. My eyes almost fell out of its socket and my jaw was wide open. I wasn't expecting that at all. How? Why?I kept moving backward slowly till my back hit the door. He didn't stop me as I opened the door and ran out, he just watched me. People watched as I ran out of the pack, my brain reeling with many questions. And it was when I ran to the spot where Jerry took me for the first time after a run, that I regretted leaving. My questions weren't going to answer themselves.What could his father have done to

    The door to the pack house was opened. The place was filled with people as they did whatever they were doing. The noise of chattering disturbed my sensitive ear. My blood was humming loudly, snapping and cracking, getting the attention of everyone. My wolf demanded acknowledgment and respect and she didn't like that she walked in and nobody gave her that. The whole place was silent for just a minute before chattering began again but this time, it was moderate. A few people scurried past bowing their heads. My wolf smirked.'what a weirdo' I internally said to my wolf. Forgetting I was referring to myself."Hey Alaia," Luke said. He looked back at the people in the room chuckling lightly as he saw the uneasiness of the people, my blood kept humming loudly. It was compelling their attention. " Can you tone it down a little, Alpha" Evan said speaking for the people in the room. Some looked at me in annoyance, because they were involuntarily giving me what I wanted. "That is if I could"

    The pack is now busy, bustling with people here and there, as they run to do their daily activities while I run back home. My wolf yipped at Luke as he saw him on his way to the pack house. I saw Amber talking to Larissa in front of a cafe. Of course, bitches will always attract bitches. I shifted in front of the house and walked in.I carried my naked self to my bathroom, not forgetting to put Sabrina's doll in one of the drawers attached to the dressing table. I turned on the shower letting the dirt wash off my body and down the drainage. After a few minutes of just standing in the bathroom, I walked out wrapping a towel around my body. I stood at the dressing table, looking at myself through the half-length mirror, remembering how I was the last time I checked the mirror. I am different now, compared to then; I look healthy, beautiful, and very much younger than my age. My hair was a darker shade of red because of its wetness, my eyes were a light green, and you could see a flicker

    " Thanks," I said quietly. I felt guilty for not telling him, I had already seen my mate. We laid back on the grass, watching the sun as it slowly sat at the horizon. It was beautiful, I had always enjoyed it. It wasn't an awkward silence. It was a peaceful and comforting one. I wasn't thinking about anything just looking at the sky."As much as I would have loved to stay here with you, I think we should leave" he sighed and sat up reluctantly. I didn't want to go, but I remembered I never told Adam or Evan where I would be. He grabbed my hand and pulled me up. "Thanks" I muttered dusting the sand off the shirt that I wore. Instead of going back, I should just meet up with the witches at the border, since I didn't feel like going home now. " Thanks for coming," he said."It's fine. I am glad I came and I enjoyed your company" " So does that mean we could do this some other time?" He asked with a raised eyebrow and a lopsided smile. He looks really cute. I laughed and nodded.
