OLIVIA'S POV" Argh!" We screamed at the same time as I stared in horror at the figure that sat on my bed. I was so embarrassed and immediately grabbed a wrapper that wasn't too far off from where I stood to cover myself.My cheeks turned pink as if they were trying to mock me and I felt like a total fool for not turning on the lightsaber first but then again it wasn't my fault since I didn't expect him to be here." What are you doing here Lucian? Why would you even enter my room without my permission," I scowled at him.I could tell that he was also feeling very embarrassed but tried hard to cover it up and also tried playing cool but it was easy to know that we were both mortified with the situation and it didn't make things better than he had seen me half naked." I'm sorry," he apologized and I could feel his sincerity. " But the truth is that you never close your room door."I was annoyed when he said that but something else came into my mind. " How did you know about that? Have
OLIVIA'S POVDinner wasn't as good as I thought it would be and throughout Hailey kept giving me dead glares. She didn't scare me though but I just wished that she wasn't there because she was making me feel very uncomfortable but I just had to hide it." Aren't you going to eat?" Kay asked me.I looked at him with a vibrant smile and started digging into my food. It was bad enough that I had to deal with Kay but what was with Hailey's presence here?She made me so pissed especially with the way she was acting so touchy with Lucien. I didn't know why but my heart sank at that moment and with the way both of them were looking at one another, I could tell that they liked each other.It took all of me to try to hide my pain, especially with the fact that we were already so much at the table, reckoning that the last thing I needed r
OLIVIA'S POVI was feeling so much sympathy for him that I put my hands on him. I was just so caught up in myself that I didn't realize that he was going through so much which made me feel very bad.He looked up at me with a smile on his face and that was when I realized that he was actually kind of cute but I was just being too adamant to accept it. I didn't know whether or not I liked Kay but I was sure that I cared about him." It's okay if you never want to see me again, I understand. I was a big jerk and don't deserve you," he apologized.His apology made me feel kind of guilty because I knew that he didn't mean to but would have appreciated it if he told me something at least." I'm not mad at you," I spoke up and he looked at me with a bright smile. " At first I was kind of mad at you," I crushed his hopes but surprisingly enough he didn't seem offended by it." I was taken by surprise because you were like my best friend and first alongside Beth when I came to that school and
OLIVIA'S POVA knock was heard on my voice and I went to answer it. I was very surprised to see that it was none other than my mom. I was excited to see her because u hadn't been expecting her at all." Mom," I screamed in delight, pulling her into a hug.She seemed ecstatic to see me and so was I. I missed her presence in the Palace and was more than excited that she was here again." Where did you go, mom? Leaving me all alone in this house," I whined, acting like a baby.She just giggled at my naughtiness but I wasn't having it. I was serious about wanting to know just where she went too." I just wanted days off and I'm sure that the boys were able to keep you company," she said like that was supposed to make me feel better but with a grin on her face I assumed that it was.I ignored whatever she was saying at that moment, seemingly deciding to just shrug it all off. She was the one that I wanted to see and talk to. I couldn't have been happier that she was around me.." I really
OLIVIA'S POV" That was such great acting. You were excellent," Kay praised me. We were back at our lockers and we're discussing about how this morning went by well. We couldn't stop talking or laughing about it, it was just so funny that i couldn't stop thinking about it.." You should get all the praise because you were the one who brought up the fight," I commended him. We both couldn't stop talking about it until we got to class.Bethany was already seated there. We came in together but she didn't stay with me by the locker for long." I see that you two are starting to get along well," she says, with a smile on her face.I couldn't have been more embarrassed by that wide grin on her face but she didn't care one bit, almost as if she wanted to tease me." We settled it all and we're back to being friends," I told her, but it still didn't stop that annoying look that was on her face and it pissed me immensely.The look on her face was kind of creeping but I just tried hard to igno
LUCIEN'S POVWe were so close to each other and I could have easily tell that her breath was felt on mine. It was hard to comprehend all that was happening but I was for sure not seeing anything else but her and just admiring her exceptional beauty.It was becoming harder and harder to control my growing feelings for her and the fact that I felt that way towards her was even more depressing. She was my step sister and harboring such feelings was a taboo.I tried reminiscing on the fact that she was also my mate which was making it harder and harder to control the feelings that I was harboring in her. I wasn't even sure if I liked her yet but I was sure that the way I felt about her was totally different." Are…are you okay?" I cleared my throat, getting us both out of the moment. It was a bit awkward but she remained calm and didn't even act up like I had expected she would." We…we should go now," she stammered.I nodded in response as we both got out of our hiding place together bu
OLIVIA'S POVMy eyes met with Luciens and even though he had annoyed me earlier, I still wanted to talk to him and the way he was avoiding me was kind of disheartening but I tried my very best to act as though I didn't care.I didn't know if it was just me but it felt as if he was a little bit disheartened, seeing me and Kay together but I pretended not to notice and just acted like everything was perfectly normal when it wasn't one bit.He walked over to me after Kay left for his car. I was happy that he still decided to come see me but my ego skyrocketed and I had to pretend once again that I didn't care that he was there." What do you want?" I asked, crossing my arms together like I didn't care.He took a deep breath then tuck his hands into his pockets and just the sight of that was absolutely breathtaking that I felt my breath hitch a little. It was almost as if I had gone to heaven and back with his breathtaking beauty." I don't think it's safe to be hanging around with Kay,"
OLIVIA'S POVI watched in pure horror as she walked over to her brother's place. She was supposed to be my maid but it turned out that she was Alpha Derek's daughter.I was amazed with all that was happening and perhaps maybe she was a spy who was sent to destroy our pack. I had looked up at her like a sister but it turned out that she was nothing but a fake. She was the sister of a rival pack and I was hundred percent sure I couldn't trust her one bit.She walked over to me with a gracious smile on her face. I was confused, wondering why the king and my mom didn't have anything to say in this matter." Olivia," she called softly, then ushered one maid to hand me something that seemed like a gift. I was impatient and immediately opened it up to see what it was.It turned out to be a very beautiful diamond bracelet. I was awed by its beauty but I didn't want to accept it just as of yet. She doesn't think that she can buy new things with gifts." What's this?" I asked, pretending to be
I accepted the darkness that filled me up.The pain in Lucien’s eyes when I floated away caused me to rage, he didn’t deserve to mourn me. He had to pay but who would ever teach him that lesson.For so long, all I did was rage and kept moving in the darkness.Was the afterlife supposed to be this way, empty and filled with my pain!One problem was that I just couldn’t remember how I had gotten here and for how longI've been here or how much more I was going to be here but I had to get out of here. I couldn't stay here anymore. The actions that led me here are vague in my memory, I died.I died in the hands of the man that said he loved me…the man that supposedly cared.My legs gave way for me and I collapsed on the floor tired and frustrated. It was too dark in here and I couldn't see anything. I was supposed to get out of here? Back home did anyone even miss me?My child!!!There was no way I was going to let him have her.Was this how the afterlife was designed to look?I couldn’
OLIVIA'S POV.The past three years had not been a not so easy journey for me. I had to leave the pack to birth my child due to the fact that I couldn't bear to face the embarrassment and shame that was associated with having a child out of wedlock. After leaving leaving the pack to give birth, I had sought solitude in a remote cabin deep in the woods, far away from the life I had known. Lucien had been the father of my child, a secret that I had kept hidden from even my own family.I had needed time to regain my sense of self, to come to terms with the conflicting emotions that had swirled around me. Being away from the pack had allowed me to heal, but it had also been a lonely and challenging path. Lucien's support had made it less lonely, but it could only go so far. I had to deal with the rest of the same by myself.As I cradled our child in my arms, I gazed out of the cabin's window. I had given birth to a beautiful, precious life, but it had come at the cost of leaving behind the
Marcus POVWhen I was about to go bed tonight and Elina joked about leaving me behind someday just because I didn't offer her a piece of my dessert seemed like a joke to me but as I held her lifeless body in my arms I couldn't help but blame myself for being so stupid. It all started when I got a distress signal from the head guard at the weak spit of our forte and I dismissed it thinking it was the usual alarm when they saw a wild animal but I was wrong, there was tons of things I was wrong about that night.I was also wrong about Lucien, he wasn't my brother no, he was the cruel bastard who took away my mate and soul away from me. I couldn't help but feel nothing at first but then got hit by a huge wave of excruciatingly painful pain and tears couldn't alleviate it. Elina gave her life for me and died in my arms right before me and I couldn't do anything to save her life. I had promised her eternity yet I couldn't guarantee few years for herHer once tender and warm hands now felt c
FlashbackLucien's POVMy lips curled into a wicked smile as I watched the soldiers prepare their weapons and sharpen their swords. A soldier unsheathed his sword and it shone brightly more than the others and I was instantly attracted to it, I signalled for him to come and when he did I gently patted his shoulders and spoke with a loud voice."Whoever manages to kill a hundred men of our enemies I will not only give him a sword made of pure gold but also anything he wants!" I declared.They all cheered and howled loudly, I chuckled seeing their enthusiasm to destroy what was once my pride but I needed to weed out the weeds before they sprout more than usual. Damon strode in fully clad in his armor and arched his eyebrow seeing the men were in high spirits, I tilted my head slightly and smiled."What's up with them?" He asked in more of a whisper."You can ask them yourself, I have them a little bit of a morale. Whoever kills the most will get a price from me." I narrated.He frowned
Olivia’s POV"I'll get the orange juice." I volunteered and reached for the fridge. I took out the jug of orange juice and took it to the dining room, dropped it on the table and went back to the kitchen to get cups. As I was about to reach for the cups in the cupboard they were kept I suddenly felt dizzy.I shook my head to shake off the feeling and my vision cleared once more. I returned the cups to the dining table and the pancakes were already served, Riana couldn't wait to eat as I hungrily devoured my own portion after they said the grace.They gossiped over the meal and Deborah told them of the hysterical patient that had been at the ward who wouldn't stop asking for his mommy all through the night. The man was thirty-five years old and he still cried to be given a lollipop and also requested for his mom's presence. The three ladies laughed at this as well and then they ran out of orange juice.I once again offered to get it and went to the fridge to get an anatomy jug of ju
Olivia's POV“All this while I’ve been sick like you know. I just want to settle some things in the Pack and make sure I’ve handled some things before you come home with our baby. ” Lucien said, looking at me with a very frank look on his face.That gave me the hint that whatever he wanted to say must be so important.My mind was quite unsettled because I didn’t know for sure if he was all better now or he was hiding it from me.“So are you better now or is that what you wanted to tell me?” I walked searching deeply into his eyes.I knew the type of person he was and he would do anything just to make sure I don’t worry about him. That was the whole reason he brought me here and I didn’t want to make things harder for him so I didn’t object.Here it was more peaceful and I had to live among humans but it wasn’t so hard to do with the people I had around. Even if I didn’t tell Lucien about the hee friends I had because he didn’t want to take any chances, I was being careful myself.“I’m
Olivia’s POVOne year later,“I’ve missed you so much, why didn’t you call at least.” I said, trying my best not to ruin the moment with my tears.“I will tell you everything now; no more hiding things from you again. I will always come out to tell you the truth.” He said with a very calm look.A part of me was very excited to hear it while the other part of me was scared that the truth would break me.Still I wanted to know what’s going on, so I can support him through every step of his journey.“Let’s sit down, I’m not going right back, I’m still going to be here with you. I want to see how far you’ve gone with getting used to the baby. I know it has not been anything near easy for you and I’m sorry I hardly showed up.” Lucien walked me over to the garden swing and placed me there.He made me rest my back on his body while he stood behind me.I wanted more of this moment, more than this.Any moment from now this was going to end and I didn’t know why I felt so overwhelmed.I didn’t
Olivia ’s POV“Olivia .” I Heard a familiar voice call out to me.I didn’t want to believe because it couldn’t be and I was probably hallucinating:“Olivia .” The voice called out again and this time around I knew i wasn’t hallucinating:I turned back immediately and I was shocked to see Lucien standing there with a bouquet of flowers in his hands.My heart ached in excitement and surprise at the same time.“Lucien , is that really you?” I said in disbelief that all omg towards him as he stood there with a plain smile on his face.The same Lucien , my husband was here right in front of me.Seeing Lucien made me feel one kind of way, I felt so excited and at the same time I felt weird seeing him again. It’s been almost a month since I heard from him and I could see the difference.His eyes were pale now and from the look of his face it was evident that he was really sick.Why didn’t he let me know what he was going through all this while?Adrian told me he was getting really better a
OLIVIA'S P.O.VI was not sure what was going on with myself or why we were kissing this way. There was only one thing I was certain about at this moment, and that was I did not want this to end until I devoured him, all of him.My fingers sunk into his scalp as I pulled him closer, my fingers fisting into his thick and dark hair. It was as though our closeness was not enough. I repeatedly told myself that I must have gone mad but at this moment i totally did not care anymore, if he was my step brother or not.All caution was being thrown into the wind. I had been placed under a spell, if not something stronger than that and I did not wish to be freed. At all.I felt his hand gliding lower from the small of my back down to my bottom and he suddenly carried me up wrapping my legs around his waist. All hell had been broken loose.Another gasp was wrenched from my now swollen, red and moist lips as he began to move towards my bed, still kissing me like a ravaged beast.He pressed my whole
