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
I sat there half naked looking at the creature, who I still didn't know who he was, fighting with the figures. But I didn't think the golden eyes held any chance in front of witches. They could just by one spell- wait they were inside the room which was built with black stones. This meant they could not do magic and oh, it was so amazing to think about it. I tugged hard on the ropes, but they remained the same, what should I do? I looked at the guy who was in front of me, his neck, he had a chain which held something sharp. I pulled it to see the small knife attached to it. 'What does he do with this?' And to think I was fighting with him when he had a knife. Gosh, such an idiot I was. After cutting the robes and taking the wolf's long shirt, I walked behind the figures quietly hooking both arms around each of the witch's necks. A look of anguish crossed my face because touching the two of them made me feel sick internally like my inside was burni
What I thought dragons were, was nothing compared to what it was in reality. I imagined them as ugly big creatures breathing fire from the mouth. It was anything but ugly, the creature in front of me looked like made of shining flame stones. Its skin was rough but still shiny. His two big ball-like fiery eyes were staring at me while his nose was nothing more than two giant holes. I couldn't describe his face size and sharp white teeth in words. It was unbelievable that he was real, his big wings were making it harder for him to stand here as he kept breaking the trees that were surrounding us. The problem was, how was I gonna ride over him? I couldn't get on his back. "Hey! Can you hear me? How will I sit on your back gianty?" I asked him on which he made a weird sound from his nose maybe snorting at the name I have given him. Suddenly, I felt his teeth on my back as he gripped the back of my shirt from his mouth and started flying. I
"Umm, I don't think I'm hungry anymore." I looked at the burned eggs and toasts in front of me and then I stared at the Beta who was standing near the door without saying a word. "I told ya I'm not good at cooking, Luna. You asked me to do it." He said still looking down with the expression I couldn't comprehend. "I would like you to call me Stella and where are the other two males?" I asked while keeping the food tray on the side table. "They have some work to handle and I thought to help you. You know we haven't talked much that's why it's a good opportunity." He said while looking at the breakfast he had made for me. "Uh.....come on follow me." Both of us walked inside the clean kitchen. Hmmm, he didn't mess up the whole room like me. It was hard, to talk to him without breaking down or look at him without hatred. But after a lot of struggle here I was, speaking to him as any other person would do. ***** "It looks good." I s
Walking downstairs with Sophia following me, I saw the Beta standing downstairs, already dressed in a nice suit. Did I take that long? Because he was ready and back from his home. I stared at Xavier who was looking at me with admiration and affection. Our eyes locked and I felt like everything just disappeared. Cliché as it sounded but it was true. At that moment I didn't wanna do anything but just gaze at him. If only I was good at expressing my feelings. I wanted to tell him how much I want him, how I missed him when I was away. But instead, I forced myself to look away. All of us walked out of the home. ***** We were hidden, looking at the beautifully decorated place from afar. As they have told me, we would make our entrance when Sebastian had purposed Mia by clapping loudly. I and Xavier were standing a little away from gemma and his mate. The male was behind me his hot breath hitting my neck making me shiver which he mistook as c
Not knowing how to act the next day, I just choose to be normal. Ignoring what happened last night but of course, that thing was too amazing to forget. "What do you want in breakfast?" Xavier asked, walking into the kitchen with tousled hair and keeping a hand on his mouth when a yawned. "Anything would be fine." Passing a smile I sat on the island gazing at my mate while he was cooking breakfast. ***** "Where is my baby?" Elena knew I was talking about Eva as she let me in. "In school." I forgot that today was Monday. Walking inside the house I turned to look at my friend. "So? What is it?" I stared at the female curiously. She took out some papers and also her computer. "You remember you told me about a guy, he was from our pack. The one because of whom we think our enemy is a female." She said and I nodded. That boy was nice, he had helped me in finding the way around pack sometimes. This was seriously so big!
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
