FLASHBACK

× Dixie ×

~ 5 hours ago-

I walk into this room, and the air just shifts . It's like stepping into another world entirely…everything feels softer, calmer. Sort of.

I can’t believe I haven’t found this place before, but then again and on a second thought, I’ve barely explored a quarter of the rooms in this massive building, let alone the entire pack territory.

I've been so caught up in everything, with Trix, with... well, everything , that I’ve hardly taken a second to just BE .

My eyes sweep across the room, taking in the details. It’s elegant, sure, but not in that over-the-top, "look at me" way.

It’s very thoughtful too. Peaceful.

The colors, the way the light shines in through the tall windows, the little trinkets and pieces of art placed just so they all seem to whisper, "Stay here. And rest."

And then, I notice the real magic. The art. Handmade, and a closer look at it and it's obvious that it's made of paper .

I blink, leaning closer to get a better look, my mind

    × Dixie דWow,” I murmur, trying to process it all. “That explains a lot, actually.”He chuckles, but there’s no humor in it. “Yeah?”“Yeah,” I say softly. “I mean, even back in high school... you were always so upfront. So... intense . I used to think it was just because you were, I don’t know, an arrogant jerk.”He snorts. “I probably was.”I shake my head, a small smile tugging at my lips. “No, I get it now. You weren’t just being a jerk. You were scared. Scared of what people would think if they didn’t see you as... perfect.”Trix doesn’t say anything, but I can see the way his jaw tightens. Like I hit too close to home, but I’m not wrong.“I never wanted to be perfect,” he says after a while. “I just didn’t want to be a failure.”Real. Because, honestly, I get it. That fear of failure? That constant pressure to be more than what you are? Yeah, I know that feeling all too well.“I feel that,” I say quietly. “I’ve always felt like I was never enough. Like no matter what I did, it

    × Dixie ×I smile.Trix leans forward. “I get that. But you don’t have to give up your dreams just because things got complicated. You’re stronger than you think, and honestly? If anyone can juggle being Luna and killing it in the fashion world, it’s you.”I look down, chewing on the inside of my cheek again. “You really think so?”He smiles slightly, nodding. “Yeah. I do.”For a moment, I don’t know what to say.I glance around the room again, the peaceful atmosphere wrapping around me like a blanket.“I wish my life could just be this simple,” I say, almost to myself. “Just... peaceful, quiet. No drama, no supernatural craziness. Just... me.”“Maybe it can be. Maybe you just need to figure out how to balance it.”I look over at Trix, narrowing my eyes slig

    × Trix ×I move a little closer to her, not enough to make it weird, but close enough to really look at her. I mean, really look at her.Her hazel brown eyes are staring at the mural, and the way the light hits them makes them even more intense. They shift between shades of brown, gold, something I can’t even name and I realize I’ve never actually taken the time to notice her like this.Her jawline is sharp but soft at the same time, fitting weirdly into her face, but in a way that works.It’s like a puzzle piece you didn’t think would fit, but then it clicks into place, and suddenly everything makes sense.She turns to me, probably sensing me staring, and raises an eyebrow.“What?” she says, “You planning on sketching me now or something?”I smirk, shaking my

    × Trix דThe woods, huh? You’re joking, right?”She shrugs, casual as anything, like she’s completely forgotten what happened.“What? Don’t tell me you’re scared.”“I’m not scared. I just... don’t think it’s a good idea. Last time, remember? You got hurt.”Her lips twist into a smirk, and I know that look. Oh, I do. She’s about to challenge me, and there’s no backing down once she’s started.“Yeah, but last time was different. I was different. I’ve got a handle on things now. I’ll be fine.”I hiss, shaking my head. “Fine? You almost got killed, Dix. This isn’t a joke.”“Oh come on, Trix. Are you really gonna be this dramatic? It wasn’t that bad.”“Wasn’t that bad?” I repeat, disbelief coloring my tone like... “Dix, you didn't talk or ope

    × Trix × Still, I have to ask. “Was this really necessary?”She glances back at me, rolling her eyes as if I’m missing something obvious. “Maybe not for you, but I needed to get out. I needed to feel free, not have to deal with that... cage .”She says the word like it’s poison, and it stings a little. The “cage.” I know what she’s talking about. The pack house. Our life. Us. Everything I’ve done to try and protect her, she’s still seeing it like some prison.“I thought we were past this, Dixie . I just want you to be safe. That's all.”She stops walking, turning to face me. There’s fire in her eyes, the same fire that always seems to rise up when we hit this wall. “Safe? You think keeping me locked up is keeping me safe ? I need to breathe, Trix! I need space. I can’t live like that.”I sigh, rubbing the back of my neck nervously . “It’s not about locking you up, Dix. It’s about making sure you don’t get hurt. You remember what happened last time you were out here?”She crosses her

    × Trix × Even if I had been told before, chances are that I would never believe myself to be so relieved to see someone so alive. Dixie is fine. Well, barely. But that’s much better than seeing her die from some damn serpent’s venom right under my watch. What kind of alpha would I be? What kind of mate would I be if I couldn’t even protect my own Luna?Her steps are slow, and it’s killing me. “Trix, I’m fine,” she says for like the hundredth time, even though I can see the pain in her eyes."Yeah, sure you are," I say, sarcasm laced in my voice. "Tell that to the venom that was literally in your leg some seconds ago."She rolls her eyes, but I don’t care. My mind’s currently racing, probably the longest marathon, yhinking of all the things that could go wrong in the next few minutes. I'm just about to suggest calling someone for help when, out of nowhere, Alvera appears.“Why the hell are you two out in the woods?” she snaps, emerging from the trees like she was born there. Her

    × Trix ×I'm sorry but I can't do that. I can’t stop. My mind’s spiraling, every worst-case scenario playing out like a horror movie in my head.“Or what if... what if Ryder’s already dead, and they’re just pretending he’s alive to mess with us? They could be using his identity, sending fake messages to lure us in. We could be walking right into a trap—”“Trix!” Alvera cuts me off, her voice sharp. “He’s not dead. And no, they’re not sending fake messages. We’ve confirmed his capture through multiple sources. Now can you please calm down?”It is not my fault to think of this. And trust me, I do not wish that he is.“You’re sure? Like, completely sure?” I just had to ask.“Yes, Trix. Completely sure,” she says through gritted teeth. “You’re acting like this is some grand conspiracy when it’s rea

    × Trix דWell, at least you’re all finally talking sense. Took long enough.” Alvera says.“Let’s just make sure that whatever we do, it’s fast,” I say, my voice steady but firm. “I don’t want to lose anyone else.”There’s a murmur of agreement around the table, and for once, it feels like we’re on the same page.Alvera shoots me a glance, raising an eyebrow. “Well, that went better than expected.”I nod. Not knowing what elsw to say.One of the elders now stands up slowly, adjusting his robes like he’s about to drop some ancient wisdom on us all. I can already feel it in my bones, this is about to be some wild suggestion.“Everything we’ve discussed sounds reasonable,” he starts. “But I believe this will only bring more grievances. More conflict. Why not have Alpha Trix attend the Nardoos’ ball nex

    × Trix ×After what feels like an eternity of trying really hard not to gawk at Dix, I finally spot the Nardoos Alpha across the room. And I mean, really, it’s a feat of self-control because Dix has been driving me to the brink of madness.Every time I glance down at her, the way she bites her lip when she’s trying not to laugh, or how her eyes light up when she’s teasing me about my lack of dance skills, it’s almost too much. Almost. But this isn’t the time to be a lovesick idiot. Nope. We’re here for a reason, and that reason just stepped into view. The Nardoos Alpha is hard to miss.He’s got that commanding presence that makes everyone around him take a step back. His shoulders are broad, his posture rigid, and there’s this air of arrogance around him that I can sense even from a distance. The way the crowd seems to part for him, it’s like he’s a king i

  • My Mate, My Bully   Bölüm 114: Oh, Trix

    × Dixie ×I have to admit, it's actually super duper nice to know that Trix is all over me like a little lost puppy.And not just any puppy, I’m talking a full-on, tail-wagging, “I’d follow you anywhere” kind of puppy. Like... Bambi level cute. Who would’ve thought that the big, bad Alpha with that intimidating vibe would be this all in on me? It’s wild, honestly.If someone had told me a few months ago that Trix would be this way with me, I would’ve called them crazy and laughed in their face. But here we are, and I can’t even pretend like I’m not enjoying every second of it.And that kiss? Oh god, that kiss. It felt like the world paused for a moment. Like all of time stopped so I could just... feel . I still can’t get over it.My heart’s still doing flip-flops, and yeah, I know, I’m trying to be cool about it, but damn , I’m

    × Trix×We pull away from each other, breathless, but the air between us still crackling with that electric pull. My heart’s hammering in my chest, and for a second, I can’t think straight.It feels like the whole damn room is spinning around us, like nothing else matters except the two of us standing here, tangled in this moment.I glance at her, and she looks back at me, those eyes wide and intense, like she’s feeling it too. There’s this... connection . Something deeper than words, something more than just the heat between us. It’s us. And in this split second, I know. I know what I want. What I’ve always wanted.I take a deep breath, and I’m suddenly aware of the way my hand fits against hers. Her palm, her fingers, they hold me like she knows exactly what I need without me having to say it. The bond between us is solid, unshakeable.

    × Trix ×I can’t believe I’m even in this room. This ballroom. This den of wolves who have caused my pack nothing but pain, humiliation, and loss.All this time, all this effort to keep my pack together, and now I’m dancing in the middle of it, in the middle of them, with my mate by my side, pretending like this is some fairy tale. Like none of it matters.But it matters.Dixie must sense the shift in my mood because she’s quiet now. She stops swaying, her hand still in mine, but she’s not pulling away. She’s waiting for me. I can feel the weight of her eyes on me, but I can’t focus on her. Not now. Not with the Nardoos Alpha still missing from this room.“What’s wrong?” she asks, her voice low, almost too calm. She’s used to me being distant, to my silence, but this is different. I don’t want her to know the truth, do

    × Trix ×The room is alive with chatter and laughter, the kind of buzzing energy that comes with a hundred people trying to look effortlessly fabulous at the same time.But then, the music changes to a soft, slow melody begins to spill out from the speakers, the kind that makes everything feel like it’s in slow motion.Couples begin to fill the dance floor, and I can’t help but feel a tug in my chest. It’s like a pull that’s drawing me in, and I know exactly who I want to be with.I glance over at Dixie, who’s standing beside me, her gaze scanning the crowd, her lips curled in a half-smirk as if she’s silently judging everyone on the floor.I can’t wait anymore.“Dance with me,” I say, the words tumbling out before I can stop them. My voice isn’t demanding, but there’s a soft co

    × Trix ×We’re in the car, cruising down the long, rough road that leads to the Nardoos Ball. I'm starting to get nervous and no matter how much I try to shake it off it's not going.Outside, shadows of trees blur by, and the silence in the car is interrupted only by the soft hum of the engine and the occasional crunch of gravel beneath the tires.I force myself to focus on the road ahead, trying to keep my breathing steady. It’s not like I’m really nervous, I’m an Alpha, after all, but something about tonight feels monumental, and it’s hard not to feel the pressure.I can’t afford to mess this up, not for the pack, not for Ryder, not for Dixie... especially not for Dixie.A light touch on my arm snaps me out of my scattered thoughts.Dixie is staring at me, her

    × Trix ×I can’t help it. The laugh that bursts out of me is loud and I know it's echoing around the room. I laugh so hard I have to press a hand to my chest, trying to catch my breath.Dixie watches me with mock offense, but there’s a hint of something softer in her eyes, like she enjoys making me laugh this much.“Okay, okay,” I manage, wiping a tear from the corner of my eye. “As... as unforgettable as that look is, you won’t be needing it.” I stand and walk over to the small intercom system on my table, pressing the button that connects to the main hall.A few moments later, there’s a polite knock at the door, and a maid walks in.Her name is Laramie, and she’s young but experienced, always carrying herself with the quiet confidence that comes from working in a house full of chaos.

  • My Mate, My Bully   Bölüm 108: The Cover

    × Trix ×The light in my room catches on the glint of silver buckles as Dixie carefully secures the straps on my pack.Her movements are almost precise, fast. She’s exuding nervous energy but as always she wouldn't say so. She would rather disguise as an expert packer, and she’s trying very hard to act like her hands aren’t trembling, under my watch obviously.I lean back in my bed, using my hand as a shield for my head, watching her in a way that I hope comes off as casual.Spoiler: It’s not. Not even close. Because nothing about Dixie has ever made me feel casual. And right now, with only hours left before the Nardoos Ball, all I want is to make sure she’s... ready. Safe. But mostly, I just want to be around her.“We need to sort out your cover, and it has to happen fast,” I say, cutting into the silence. My

    × Dixie ×I’m helping Trix fold the last of his shirts when he suddenly says, “Come to the ball with me.”I freeze, the shirt slipping from my hands as I stare at him like he just spoke in another language.Did he seriously just invite me to that ball? The one thrown by people who’d probably love nothing more than to see me six feet under? But there’s this glimmer in his eyes, like he’s actually waiting for me to say yes.And suddenly my mind is a chaotic mess of thoughts.“Hold up. You want me to go with you?” I ask, trying to keep my voice steady, but my heart’s pounding.He shrugs like it’s no big deal. “Yeah. Might be better if we’re together, you know, strength in numbers and all that,” he says, but there’s something else in his tone, liike maybe it’s not just about safety.
