Amelia's POV The sound of my beating heart rang in my ears as I dodged another attack, my right arm swinging to come into contact with a cheek and it made a very harsh 'whack' sound and I could feel my knuckles breaking under the pressure. Sweat dripped down my forehead as I swung my leg around which succeedingly knocked my opponent to the ground, losing their balance I swung my body on top of them and gave them two hard punches on the cheeks before the person had regained their strength and pushed me off them. I breathed in deeply as I saw my opponent smirk tauntingly and before I could do anything they punched me square on my jaw and I could feel blood seeping through the broken skin, I growled at them.I swung my right arm again which hit them on the nose making them take a step back as I hit them in the stomach causing them to groan loudly as they gripped their stomach. I took this chance to throw my punches quickly making sure to hit every pressure point until they shouted out '
Grayson's POV Having Amelia in my arms soothed me to the point my wolf was content, the past few weeks have been hectic, my wolf and my skin side are slowly coming into balance with each other and Irene and I have fixed up the patches that I had made to our relationship. Her mark on her shoulder had started to clear up well that only a little bit of redness still circled around my mark. It felt good to have her in my arms, her lips on mine and her mind completely opening up so I can tell what she's feeling, but of course, I could tell anyway.It felt weird to experience so much affection, but I liked it too much to let go of Irene. Her head was buried in the crook of my neck and my head was also doing the same thing as I peppered her neck with loving kisses making her shiver under my touch. Her scent was too strong for me that it made my legs weaken, the pull of the Moon to strong for either us to ignore. We both loved this moment too much to ever seem to let go, one of us had too. I
Amelia's POV I sat down at the right side of the head of the table, the future Luna must sit here, next to her mate at dinner. It was something that I had learned from my Luna studies and luckily this was one of the things that I could remember from the amount of information being crammed into my brain. I felt awkward sitting at the head of the table, each family member was staring at me with their judgmental eyes and views and I took a shaky breath as my nerves haywire everywhere. This was the first time I was having dinner with the whole entire Roman family and right now, it didn't seem like a family at all. I miss my family.I tried to avoid their piercing gazes, trying to concentrate on the hand which was clamped over mine, his thumb rubbing over the top of my hand as he tried to create a conversation with his family, but failing miserably as they gave short answers. I sighed as the maids finally brought plates of food on the table, roast chicken, mashed potatoes, ribs and other
Third Person's POV All eyes were on the infamous pair. Grayson's stance was stiff, his eyes zoning on every family member, trying to see if any of them would protest of what would happen, challenging to speak up to the Alpha. But, none had spoken, their tails tucked underneath them as their necks were being pointed towards him, showing submission and he breathed out in triumph. His eyes went over to Amelia who painfully clutched his left hand to the point he could not even feel it, orange pursued within her showing how tense she was, how uncomfortable she was and the faintest of blue which indicated her sadness. His heart jerked at the sight of her, his wolf pleading to comfort her, but he knew it would make matters worse if he was to do that in front of everyone. Everyone was too uncomfortable and the air was thick to do something so calming. "Dinner's dismissed, sorry," he told everyone and stood up quickly, tugging on Amelia's hand as an indication to follow him. She took the h
Grayson's POV My family sat in my office, my sister next to my parents and my brother who seemed to understand what would be happening. They all looked at me expectedly, their eyes trained on me, waiting for something to happen. Kayla's gaze was hard, she was tense. Her hormones practically leeched out of her, she was quite mad for someone who woke up pretty early in the morning, she was a morning person. My mother and father were looking at me curiously, but their gazes were solely on me and I could see the annoyance for waking up earlier than when they should be awake, but this matter was too urgent to not happen later. "What all of you did yesterday was unacceptable, Mitchell, you of all people should've at least said something. Kayla, you were out of line and mother, father, you too." I told them with command laced in my voice. Kayla was fidgeting in her seat afterwards, her hard gaze still remained on me as my mother and father nodded ever so slowly. "But brother, she-" Ka
Amelia's POV I went downstairs after I took a shower, the worry was still settled in the pit of my stomach as I somehow found my way to the kitchen dressed in grey sweatpants that hung low on my lips and a thin white long-sleeved shirt which had revealed the outline of my bra until I put a singlet underneath it. I took a deep breath in as pushed the doors open where I saw a couple of the maids tending to the breakfast for the day. The dining room, open kitchen and the living room were being taken over by the smell of fried meat and freshly made bread which was baking in the oven. Once the maids saw me they bowed in respect and I did the same and they continued on preparing for the family's arrival. I sat on one of the seats next to the kitchen where I just observed the maids from afar as they cooked and cleaned. There were about four maids for the day, and I had yet to learn their names. They were a constant in this room and I liked to see some regularity in my day as I visited the
Amelia's POV Breakfast was uneventful, I decided to avoid the family who was talking amongst themselves as Grayson had sat next to me on one of the seats in the kitchen stroking my thigh in comfort as we ate breakfast silently. It felt good to have a day without any drama, Grayson would be leaving later in the day so I wanted to show him all my training before he did so. After breakfast, I took his hand and tugged him through the hallways and into our bedroom where I told him to sit and wait for me so he could watch me train. He gave me a bright smile before I headed into the bathroom and changed into my training gear which consisted of an olive tank top and slim black leggings. I went back into the room where he was casually sitting on my bed staring at nothing, but until his eyes landed on me, his pearly white teeth were shown through a smile. I knew he couldn't see what I was wearing, but I still felt self-conscious under his stare. He stood up and slowly walked up to me and wra
Amelia's POV Missing someone has always been easy for me, it was like a dull ache whenever I thought of them, like my friends I had left in my old pack. I know it was selfish of me to only miss them a tiny bit, I missed my family more and, well, Grayson is a totally different case. Every time I thought of him, I felt like something was missing as if a piece of my body was yearning for something which was miles away. My heart would always have a burning sensation whenever I thought of him and as time went by, I felt myself becoming more depressed without him. He had become a drug that I haven't taken in ages. I had finally accepted his past and who he was as a person, and now the bond was repairing itself accordingly. My mark had finally turned back to what it should've been, it had looked like two puncture holes which had sealed up and every time I had touched it, a wave of happiness had bubbled over me. I felt good to have a reminder of him, granted the way it was conceived wasn'
