Moon’s POVIt’s painful running but I can’t stop myself from doing it. It only seems okay; I get locked up in my room and breathe in the scent of my bed. It will calm my nerves.If there is any open wound from my fall from earlier, I can’t say because my mind is pretty preoccupied. How on earth would I know what Diana must have told Liam? When and where did she meet him? I need to see him tonight, I’d have to devise a way to sneak out of the pack house no matter what.Entering my safe space, my room. I closed the door and locked it immediately after. If there is something I wouldn’t want tonight, it is an unwanted visit from Aiden.Just like I thought, a knock came. His hand rapped gently on my door at first before hitting harder. I held my throbbing head in my hand as I felt like telling him off with a shout, but my throat was dry; I would need water to achieve that. I only want my personal space without all these. Is it too much to ask? “Moon?” He called.“Please open up the do
Moon’s POVBending with a pounding heart, I carried the parcel and waited for a bit to see if someone from somewhere would pounce on me and yell to attract attention. When nothing of such happened, I slowly receded into my room with the parcel in my hand. It felt a little heavy, I had to use both hands. Sitting on the side of my bed, I kept the parcel, studied it, and contemplated sneaking out to meet Liam first. “But…”Okay, never mind, I will just open it slowly. Drawing it carefully close to me, I take my time unwrapping the carefully packed parcel just in case there is a need to repackage it back the way it was packaged.Inside this beautifully wrapped package, I saw two other wrapped packages. By this time, my heart was thundering. What if I blow up? Or is something harmful in the parcel? Another unwanted memory flashed in my mind, but I blinked it away.Picking one parcel and throwing care into the wind. I tore it open to see a little note attached to the attractive-looking
Moon’s eyes stared at the whiteness of his eyes in the dark in horror after he lay on top of her, lightly placing his weight on her while supporting the rest of it with his hands on the floor. “Let me help you, Moon.” He whispered in her ears. Shaking off the feeling of anxiety spreading speedily along her body parts and coming to settle in her stomach, she closed her eyes to avoid looking at his face which was closer than normal to hers. “Get off me Aiden.” She pleaded gently, a little tear peeking out of her eyelids.“I can’t. If I do, you’d run off and if you run off, there is a possibility of being caught by the guards.” He said. “You know the guards are on the lookout for you?” He asked her softly. Snapping her eyes open, she furrowed her brow at his craftiness. “And whose fault is it huh? Whose fault is it?” “I was only doing it for your good Moon.”“Allow my name to stay out of your lips.” She said irritated by the affectionate way he called her. “See, someone is coming
The past Moon would have been over the moon at that question, not this Moon. Looking into his eyes, she was almost deceived for a moment that he was sincere. At this moment, she noticed something she had been blind to all along.He had only ever used the word ‘like’* around her and not ‘love,’ not to mention his indifference to her being bullied, his joining in the fun of making a complete mockery of her, and his acting like he didn’t know her at all. “You disgust me.” Moon spat out glaring hard at him. “What did you just say?” He asked, taking a step closer to her with his eyes red and wide open. “You claim to LIKE me,” Moon said, a chortle escaping her lips despite the pain she was in. “I do like you, and there is no need to put it down for some previously homeless bastard.” He said with his lips lifted like he had some nuts loosed. Moon’s hands itched to smack his face at his tagging Liam a homeless bastard. Swallowing the harsh words to avoid any rash reaction from him, she
Liam’s POV.Diana? She mentioned her name in the passing, but I held onto that while pretending not to hear her. What was it she was spewing about Moon? She looked familiar and malicious; I know I shouldn’t trust her, but how could I not? After getting stood up by my mate and stumbling upon her kissing another man. “She filled my head with a lot of nonsense,” I said grabbing my hair.But on saying that, I wonder who did. Moon or Diana? Did Moon fabricate tales to make me pity her? Love her? Or, is Diana the right one? After all, I can’t wipe away the fact that there are bits of truth in her words. After that night, standing up with extreme hurt and heartache, I vowed never to set foot there anymore. Moon, Diana, and the Silverstone pack can all go to hell. Walking back home wasn’t as easy as I thought. Heartbreak was the last thing I expected to experience, but I did experience it: not being able to sleep, not being able to eat well enough, losing interest in things, and wanting
Liam’s POVCalming myself down in this situation is a hard task, but I do. I had always had absolute control over my emotions until meeting Moon just recently. On the thought of her, I waited till it got a little darker before deciding to move out. I can’t remember the last time I made use of my ability, but this night, to see Moon, I will.In Kia’s head, I know he thinks I have transferred all of my ability to him. He doesn’t know he just has a fraction of it and nothing more. Though I have lost my ability to be invisible, the ability to pass through hard surfaces was still present. Standing up and deliberately dressing in a black sleeveless muscle shirt and shorts, I made my way through the walls towards the back of the pack house. Remembering something, I walked back into my room through the wall and created an illusion of me sleeping. Knowing Kia, he would come in occasionally without prior notice to check up on me. Having been satisfied with the illusion of myself sleeping on
“Kneel properly or leave,” Liam ordered using his aura as an Alpha. “I won’t do this against your will.” He continued. “If you don’t want to, walk out.”“I will.” “You will?”“You will what?” Liam asked him. “I will take the oath.” “Draw your blood,” Liam commanded and watched Kia bite into his hand long and hard enough to get his blood out. Following Liam’s finger, Kia made his blood drop on the place pointed out, and Liam did the same. “I swear to always be loyal to Alpha Liam of the Blood Moon pack as his Beta till eternity,” Kia swore and watched his blood simmer, and soon, both bloods mixed themselves thoroughly, and they were gone. “What?” Liam asked Kia when he looked up at him in question. “Were you thinking I would swear to be loyal to you too?” He asked, the amusement in his voice a bit too loud. “Henceforth, you are bound to me, body, wolf, and soul. You can choose to betray me at your risk.” Alpha Liam said healing himself and making a show of flexing his muscle
“You can leave and enjoy the party to your satisfaction. Any more disruption and you are out.” He said waving them off and urging the acting waiter to pour more wine into his empty glass.“You should stop now; you are drunk,” Kia warned, giving the man a sign to stop pouring his drink.“It seems like you have forgotten your oath just in a few minutes.” Liam threatened glaring at Kia.“Know your place.” He said and reached out his hand, taking the bottle of wine from the waiter.“You rather listen to him, than listen to me?” Liam asked the confused man who had this fright on his face with a stance ever ready to bolt out of his position. “I am sorry Alpha, I…” “Get out!” Liam ordered, the fire in his yellow orbs blazing even more as the man ran out immediately.Taking another stick of cigar, Liam was about to light when a strong perfume hit his nostrils.“Let me do that for you, Alpha Liam.” The coquettish voice said, making him pause his actions and give a frown before looking up at
The sun peeked into the room through the curtain and Liam groaned at the splitting headache he felt. His body felt weird, and there was an unfamiliar weight on him; he struggled to open his eyes, but in the process of doing so, he thought his head was going to split into two, so he kept them closed, taking his time to finally open them. First, his right eye, but things were a little blurry; then, his left eye. Looking around his room which was a mess, his brain finally registered that there was something or someone on him. Seeing the familiar brown curly hair on her head, Liam’s heart skipped a bit. ‘Moon?’ was the first thought that came to his head but the connection wasn’t there. Now, his heart was thudding in anticipation and surprise. Who was this person on him? What had he done last night? He struggled to remember. She moved on him, and he realized again with growing alarm that he was naked. NAKED! And she was, too! Now, he was beginning to breathe fast. No, he couldn’t
Withdrawing his already swollen lips from hers with a thin silver line being the only connection between their lips, he looked at the Beta in excessive pain, cutting the thin line of saliva between Harper and him. Gently detaching her body from his, he stood up, keeping her with utmost care on his seat before proceeding to walk towards Kia who was now in a kneeling position.“What just happened?” He asked squatting to Kia’s level.“Did you just try to harm Moon and me?” His smile was daunting and mirthless.“No, NO. She isn’t Moon!” Kia found himself yelling over the sound of music, trying to knock some sense into Liam’s head. “Oh, now you are being unrealistic.” Liam sucked his teeth.“Why didn’t I think of this method before now?” He asked himself as he watched his Beta writhing in pain.“All right, for old time's sake, I will help you.” The words flowed lightly from his lips, and Kia looked at him through the severe pain he was going through.“You can free yourself from this pain
“You can leave and enjoy the party to your satisfaction. Any more disruption and you are out.” He said waving them off and urging the acting waiter to pour more wine into his empty glass.“You should stop now; you are drunk,” Kia warned, giving the man a sign to stop pouring his drink.“It seems like you have forgotten your oath just in a few minutes.” Liam threatened glaring at Kia.“Know your place.” He said and reached out his hand, taking the bottle of wine from the waiter.“You rather listen to him, than listen to me?” Liam asked the confused man who had this fright on his face with a stance ever ready to bolt out of his position. “I am sorry Alpha, I…” “Get out!” Liam ordered, the fire in his yellow orbs blazing even more as the man ran out immediately.Taking another stick of cigar, Liam was about to light when a strong perfume hit his nostrils.“Let me do that for you, Alpha Liam.” The coquettish voice said, making him pause his actions and give a frown before looking up at
