"Don't you have work today?" Xavier who was sitting beside me, just looking at me and making me uncomfortable with his piercing gaze.
"I will handle everything from home today." He replied, still looking at me.
"Stella...." I turned my head to the right so I could face him. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be that angry...it's just....." He trailed off.
Shocked because I have listened from many people that their Alpha was sweet and kind to them and for others he was scary but he has never said sorry to anyone, I said.
"Huh? Uh...It's okay Xavier. People tend to become angry sometimes. I was just being nosy." I knew he was feeling bad because of what he did yesterday.
"No, no I get it you were bored of living the whole day alone." Well, he was right, finally understood me.
"Anyway, where is that pain in the ass gemma?" I asked him to which he laughed.
"He got his feisty cat to take care of but why are you asking about him?" He
Another day, new drama, that was what I believed now. Still, I wished there would be one day when I could sit peacefully and let my mind roam around. I would smile and enjoy the day without having a feeling that it would just vanish or it was a dream. Love someone without fearing that I would lose them or hurt them. But that could only happen in my imagination because even my dreams weren't good ones. A sigh escaped my lips as I saw how people were acting around me. They were idiots, they didn't even know who was appearing like an angel but was no good than a devil. When I reached the room where my friends lived I thanked myself for controlling my anger and not attacking the damn people who were making me frustrated. "Hey, what are you doing here?" Mia asked me as I entered the room. It was big enough for two people. One double bed with a closet and a big bathroom. Simple but I liked it. "Can't I come here?" I looked at her on which sh
"What? Really?" Oliver asked me as I gave him a look that said do-I-look-like-I'm-kidding. "Well shit! how the wolves who are guarding the pack didn't see him?" He once again asked me. "Shouldn't I be the one who should ask this from you?" "Fine jeez, calm down. I will ask Alpha to tight the security." I nodded. We just talked over everything that happened like the red-eyed guy who was back to as good as before and Gemma was confused just like me. I have asked him to look into this matter on which he had agreed. I could say that Oliver knew everything that was happening with me after I told him 'I'm a hybrid'. He could come helpful when I needed help as he was Gemma and of course, every wolf here, in this pack would listen to him. "Ah, you said you will tell me about Elena, the one I showed you a picture of. So?" I looked at him. "Yeah well, she is a pack member." I gave him a look that shouted are-you-serious.
I dodged his claws that were directed to my neck. My wolf howled angrily as she raised her claws and pushed them inside his stomach. The wolf turned to face me, his blood oozing out. Bang! My back was on the ground as the other wolf was on top of me. He bit on the right side of my neck and I growled while clawing him furiously, so I could shake him off. Holding his neck tightly we rolled so that now I was on the top. I pulled his one eyeball out from my claws and threw it away. I tried to claw his face but the wolf pushed me with a force that I fell to the ground away from him. I stood up and looked back where the wolf was but now there was nothing. I howled in frustration and slumped down. What the hell just happened? Why would that Witch always ruin my mood? **** After wearing the clothes with a lot of struggle I sat on the ground in front of the river while I read the paper that had blood on it. I found it from where the w
I woke up just to find that I couldn't move. No, I didn't mean like 'I woke up and found my legs are not there or something like that' I couldn't move because of two strong arms, that I didn't know how or when were wrapped around my waist. After a lot of struggle, I was finally freed from Xavier who had his arms and legs wrapped around me. Truthfully, it was an awkward position, and my wolf wasn't helping with her dirty thoughts. I walked into the bathroom but what I saw left me shocked, my face was looking like a big ball. All red and swollen, not only my face but neck and right hand too. I removed the scarf and the mark of the fangs was now bigger. The vein near that mark was black and prominent. I felt like vomiting after seeing that but the bigger problem was...Xavier. How would I tell him what was all this? I couldn't tell him the truth. Before I could think anything I heard a knock on the door. "Ella, are you in there?" He
To say it was hard getting Xavier to understand why I sneaked out would be an understatement because it was more than hard. He knew I was lying when I said I missed my friends and wanted to have breakfast with them but in the end, he shut his mouth as he knew I was also getting angry because he wasn't trusting me. Though I felt bad for lying, the truth wasn't good for him. **** It has been days and nothing...nothing happened. No attack, no wolf, no red-eyed guys leaving messages. I didn't know should I be happy that nothing has happened yet or worried that something big was about to happen. I looked at the white ceiling lost in my thoughts, it was 9 in the morning and Xavier was already gone. Seemed like he was overworking himself because of the pack's safety and I could not say anything because of course, that was his work as an Alpha. I did have an idea by which there were chances that the big fight that could happen would stop but I d
Mia Pov I looked around me just to see I and Sophia had reached the pack but.....but Stella wasn't with us. We were in the field covered with trees and shrubs. The grass was trimmed nicely. I looked around as I tried to recall what happened. When I was doing the spell.....what happened? Why wasn't Stella with us? I looked at Sophia who stared at me wide-eyed. "Stella she is not with us, shit, shit, shit. Why would she push us and let herself be caught by whoever it was?" Sophia like me was also very worried about Stella. I was so concentrated on the spell that I didn't notice what happened there, all I felt was someone pushing me but till that time my spell was complete and so the next second we were in the pack. "She pushed us? why?" I looked at Sophia. "I don't know, Mia. She was looking at the ground and suddenly she pushed both of us hard." She said, confused as she thought about what happened. X
Stella pov A sense of danger was looming around me. The darkness surrounding me was not helping in this situation, only a small bulb was hanging from the ceiling which was little or no help. A little sound and all my senses would be on alert. I had to open my eyes to full size to see properly. "Is anyone there?" I asked as I heard something moving around. I hated it, not being able to use any power of mine. I could not change into my wolf form or use my magic because of the stones, the room or should I say cage was made of Black stones. It was a stone that could take any supernatural power a person have. The stone was making me feel suffocated and weak, I was just a frail human in this fucking room. I could still feel my wolf but she was hurt from the wolf's bane and wasn't all-powerful. "You look pathetic, Stella." Someone from darkness stated. My head snapped toward the voice just to see a shadow looming in the darkness. I couldn't see his o
Xavier Pov I felt like pulling my hair out, it was so lonely and I was devastated. I hadn't seen Stella's face for 4 days, fucking 4 days! I have to sleep alone on the bed and I had found myself waking up in the middle of the night thinking about Stella. The home felt so cold without Stella's warm smile and laugh in here. I would come home just to find empty rooms, I felt like she was my breath, my life because I have been a dead man walking around. There wasn't one clue that could give us any hint about Stella's whereabouts. I was so useless, I could not find anything. How could I be like this, even my powers were of no use. What would be she going through? Was she alright? I would fucking burn all of them down if they even touch a hair of hers! Please Godness help us. I even begged my mother to help me but she couldn't find anything too. "Did you find anything?" I entered my office, it was like my usual sentence, as
Alex pov *Every event in this chapter occurred before Stella arrived in the pack. The event happened a long time before the scene that happened at the start of the story occurred. 'Would you stop, please?' I said irritatedly while throwing the pen in my hand on the table as I couldn't focus on work, not with the wolf of mine rambling incoherently and pacing without any rest. 'But why? Why I'm feeling this way? Perhaps something is-' I blocked him out and massaged my forehead. Ruffling my long hairs that were falling messily on my forehead, I stood up and cleaned the table. Hearing a knock on the door I looked up to find Xavier, the Alpha, also my friend standing there waiting for me to say something. "Come in, you know you don't need permission to come in." He smiled, taking a seat on the couch while staring around he finally after some time spoke up. "What's the matter, Alex? You seemed worried and different from yesterday. Is everyth
"Mom isn't he cute?" The excited girl, who would particularly jump on the kid and would play with him if got the chance, stared at me with a big smile. "Hmm." I hummed not paying attention to my daughter while trying to control the odd feeling as if I would vomit anytime. 'Not again! Why does it always happen to me?' I had one hand holding my child while the other one was on my chest. "Is everything alright?" Sophia asked as I nodded lightly not wanting her to worry about this small thing because I was used to having this vomiting session at the wrong time and place. "I was getting bored at home alone, it's good that you came, Stella." I smiled, it was the same with me, but the main reason for which I came here was my daughter who would keep asking me to take her to the baby. "Alexandria just wanted to meet the baby and look how happy she is looking right now." A smile touched my lips as I started at the girl whose green eyes, just l
This must be my end, I would die just like that. I should have thought about some plan if things might go downhill but no, ugh! idiot me. I had my legs pressed against my stomach as the pain was increasing every second while my hands involuntarily flew to my face. 1 2 3..... I kept on counting but nothing happened, nothing came my way. I was still breathing and was in my body. A growl made me open my eyes as I saw my mate, fully dressed, had his mother's back against the tree with him holding her hands. "How dare you, mom? You first betrayed me, helped that guy knowing I would be in trouble, my life at risk but you didn't care, and now....you trying to kill my mate." He was looking at the lady. I whimpered because of the pain and tried to sit in which my two friends beside me helped me. "That needs to be done, son. And I won't let him take your life-" "You are taking my life by your hands! What
People think they are ready for the sun to dawn but when that happens they wish they would have gotten some more time. The same goes for any other thing cause every creature is greedy for one or another thing. They want more of it. Here it was happening the same to me, I thought for a long time that I was ready to face Blade and his followers but now my heart was pounding and the fear of what would happen overtook me. I wanted to think that everything would be okay just like my plan I would die with Blade and everyone else would be fine. But that wasn't the scene, one innocent life would be going other than the two of us and I couldn't find a way to save it. I remembered how worried Alex looked when he told me just what had happened at the border. "It's here, the war had broken out. Vampires and Witches, double or triple than our people had attacked us. Xavier had called for other packs who had allied with us and I gotta go there too." I gazed a
Some things just have to be done and so doing it before was better than later. Truthfully, I didn't know if I should keep any work for later cause who know I was alive right now but might be dead just a second after now. Walking near the room where Oliver was I asked my brother to open the door as it was locked. No one liked this, locking Gemma in a room, but everyone was afraid that Blade might come for him or take over him and so the Alpha had to do this. Even when after knowing that this lock or wolves guarding the door or anything else couldn't stop Blade from doing what he wanted, people of this pack still wanted to do this. Just for their mind peace maybe. Thinking back to yesterday, what happened with me in the hospital when Sophia turned out to be Blade, was way too horrible. I would still shiver thinking how odd and creepy that scene was. Shaking my thoughts I walked into the normal-sized room to find the male's figure curled up in the bed. His
"W-who are you?" Even when I was not at all afraid of him, I knew it was Blade hiding behind Sophia's face, I stuttered because of the bad feeling spreading within me cause of how his red irises were creepily glued on me without blinking. "Uh, don't act 'daughter'..." He had a smirk knowing just how much I hated it. "I know you are intelligent enough to know who I'm." It seemed odd to see a girl talking in a deep voice but then again everything in my life was different from ordinary. Hell, all life of mine has never been simple and normal. "What do you want? Why are you even here?" I asked angrily as he laughed.....at me? Or did I say a joke to him? Didn't know but suddenly he had a serious face. "Of course, I'm here for you dear. It's time that I finally get the best food of mine also have to find the knife you have been hiding." He kept his hand on my hand which was trying to open the door before yanking it away from the knob. "I
"You know I love you and won't say you anything but this....umm.....everyone! Please leave. We will discuss other things tomorrow." The mate of mine ordered as I heard many chairs moving and people's footsteps nearing the exit before the door was opened. I glanced back to see the full room now emptied. The male patted my head as I kept my head on Xavier's chest again. Currently, I was hugging my man tightly as my wolf and I seemed to be scared to death. After some minutes of being near him, I was back to normal, my heartbeat was regular as I put some distance between us. "Are you fine? What happened to you, Sugar? You look scared to me." Licking my dry lips I sat on one of the chairs behind me. "I saw it, t-the h-horrible pe-people p-unishing mum before and now S-Scar-Scarlet." He scrunched his face in confusion but not asking anything he kneeled in front of me, taking my hands in his before making me look at him. "Calm down
"It's Stella, open the door, fast!" The next second the wooden thing that was stopping me from going in was swing opened as I moved inside the house and plopped on one of the nearest couches. "What happened? Why did you sound worried and in hurry?" The lady questioned as I smiled sweetly at her. "I knew that you would take years in opening the door so I just acted." Narrowing her eyes she stared at me suspiciously before saying. "Or maybe be not. What was the real reason for the panic in your voice? Why ask me to hurry?" Biting my lips I thought for a while as to what to say but when nothing came to my mind I sighed. "Well, out there was a group of big....honey bees, I and my wolf don't have a good history with them." Her eyes twinkle but she pressed her lips tight trying not to laugh at my horrified face. The old meeting with them wasn't something I liked to remember, nor did I want to have an encounter with those creatures ever again. "Oh, I
Wearing a white sweater and black pants with a high ponytail I was ready for going out. Rubbing my lips together and looking at the lipstick, that if it was alright or not, I walked out of the room. "You going somewhere?" My mate questioned who I didn't see was in the lounge watching TV. "Yeah, have to meet Antonio, Kevin, Sophia, and Fred. Gosh, so many people are in hospital." I sighed feeling bad, was this all happening because of me? Was I the reason, everyone has been caught up in problems? "Hey! Don't you dare to take all this fault on yourself. You ain't the reason for any of this." Within a second I was hugged by him, surprised at this sudden act, cause I didn't even see him running as he used his vampire powers, I stood there like a statue for a while. 'He understands you well, doesn't he? Just the expression of yours can tell him what's going in your mind.' My wolf said as I smiled a little. I agreed with her, he cared and understood me quit
