“Woah…the rumors were true huh, they really are a thing now”.
My ears perk up with incessant itches as my face goes frigid instantly. More comments fly about and it only peaks the disdain brewing within me. Asher…that bastard.
Going around and flaunting Heather as his girlfriend and stirring unending ruckus. I grind my teeth, feeling the bristles of my primal jealousy prickling all over my being.
“Silver! Hey- wait up!”
And yet, my body betrays my will to run away at the sound of her sunny voice. Hissing at my wolf for defying me and stopping my pace in wait for her to get close. I listen to the closing steps until her running feet comes to halt right before me.
“Silver…damn, I almost missed you. Let’s eat lunch together…though I don’t know where Ria is. I think she’s avoiding me…”
Getting to the part with Ria, her voice drops with worry and I have to pr
Clawing at my chest, excruciating pain I lured into my being. Itching madly…unable to control the spasms of pain that slices repeatedly against my body, stinging like iron whips lashing over my flesh. ‘Let me out….’ That deep growl resonates in the back of my head, dominating the chaotic mess my mind is degenerating to as I clutch my chest, sliding against the wall to a sitting posture on the cold floor. ‘Let me out…and let me go after her….’ I shake my head in the negative, beginning to view little colors through my eyes and I begin to panic, my wolf is gaining control. The colors fade into darkness, signaling my control and I hear his malicious growl from the depths of my mind and I bite on my lower lip to keep from screaming in pains. ‘This is how you want to play huh…Silver. Will you sit here wallowing in regrets or join me to rip that fool to bits and pieces and claim what belongs to us?’ His voice booms in my mind as I shut my eyes tight
“Hey, you’re leaving? But she’s in there. Playing games with Asher and a group of his friends…speaking of which…Ria’s also been avoiding her too. Know what’s up?” Not sure if it’s alright to tell him but I do anyway. “Ria likes Asher so she’s still mad at Heather. I’ll just quietly leave and try again some other time”. And before he can rain down his barrage of questions on me, I sprint off. What the heck am I doing?! I’m so close to her and yet I…can’t believe I’ve depleted into such a coward. I take shelter between the trees, resting my back against a tree as I scold myself. That’s when I pick up voices and her scent hits my nose hard, forcing a sneeze out of me. “So…” His voice drags, “…what is it you wanna give me?” I push off the tree and trace the voices and hide when i see his back. Trying to adjust my vision so i can see her clearer which is at the risk of my wolf jumping out. “Um…it’s nothing so special but- I’d like you to ha
“What are you doing here? Why did you come despite knowing what you put her through?” I almost forgot about this punk. Why do I have to deal with him now? Rubbing my fur-coated neck and letting out a yawn, “What do you want?” I ask in a bored tone. Just look at him, putting up those hard eyes and angry face. What a pup. “I don’t know what game you’re playing but you need to stop what you’re doing to Heather. Stop confusing her, Silver. Stay away from her, you’ve hurt her enough”. “What are you now? Speaking for her? Is what you think you share with her so weak? Why are you so insecure and looking for who to blame for it?” Dang it! My wolf is making this all come out wrong. These aren’t my words. ‘If you don’t want me violating our deal and taking charge, sit back and let me handle this lowlife punk’. So I step back and take a sit, hoping against the odds that he doesn’t get provoked into shifting. Cutting a glance at my mate begin take
Another failed attempt to see my mate has me tracing my way back to the cottage I live in, a shadow of myself as I use my heightened senses to guide me back. That’s when a mix of two foreign scents assail my nostrils. One of it seems faintly familiar and the other, completely…unknown to me. So I speed my pace and arrive before them. With my voice hard, I ask, “Who are you and what do you want?” “You must be Silver right?” What is with that serene voice that calms me down instantly? A warmth I’ve never felt before, searing through my being, arresting me from all angles and melting my despair away. Provoked at the sudden infiltration, I try to speak back but…it all just simmers away, making my wolf stir peacefully and rendering me away from all fight. She speaks again. “I’m sorry we came uninvited, but there are pressing matters to discuss with you” She tells me, haste in her voice and I nod lazily, still recovering from that beautiful attack. W
“It’s…fine” Finding my breathing hindered as well as I frown at us. “You…can get down now” I chide but she holds on tighter. “I don’t wanna” She shakes her head obstinately and I think I’m losing it faster than I thought I can manage. Patience is something I don’t lack but…but…but this girl! She accelerates the unrelenting pounding in my chest and my idiotic honed senses just have to pay attention to her racing heartbeat that drives me silly. I recover my wits and form a smile, bringing my lips to where I perceive her ear to be and whisper in a very sultry voice. “Does Asher enjoy hugs like this from you?” And she goes frigid, cracking me up as she jumps off me at once. Missing her feel against my body but I gotta let it go for the red look on her face I see from my right eye. She fumbles with her fingers, presenting her very shy and meek side to me. Slowly, my laughter begins to die as I really begin to take a look at her.
Heather’s POV.“Heather sweetie, the boys are here!” Aunt calls from downstairs and I hasten up, swiping my phone and headphone off the bedside table and throwing them into my travel bag. “I’ll be there shortly!”Hollering back, I dash out of the room and slam into someone as we both groan. Kamila giggles at me, rubbing her arm, “You should slow down or you might just fall down the stairs”.And I pout, “You don’t have to put it that way. I’ll be careful!”And off I go with my explosive drive down the stairs and rolling into the sitting room where I instantly compose myself before the watching eyes.“Oh…hey Asher” I wave my hand softly and he smiles. But I’m searching for someone, craning my neck around until something hits me directly at the nape of my neck and I let out a yelp.Turning around with an evil glare that melts away to a
“Are you sure you’re alright? Do you need me to stay?” I turn around at the voices and see mom and dad by the main door.She pats his arm, letting out a nervous laugh as she shakes her head against the offer. “You don’t have to, it’s only a mild headache. Now buttercup, you have to get going before Weslee sees you” And she starts to push him out the door against his protest as I giggle at them.Skipping over, “Did you really have to chase him out that way- mom?” Surprised to see her leaning her back tiredly against the door with a palm against her temple and eyes shutting momentarily. Studiously, I draw closer just in time with her eyes coming back open.“Oh hey sweetie, you’re up huh? Hungry?” Even her voice is strained and her smile is sloppy. She looks…extremely exhausted.Ignoring her questions to stretch my hand up, flattening my palm against her forehead and my other palm
I watch the Gamma’s younger sister, Lana and my older brother Yohan from the porch I’m standing on. These two have grown so attached and inseparable in just seven hours. Yohan never wants to let her go and neither does she as she behaves all coy and shy, often bringing something to talk about. But she knows she has to return to the pack house as her help has been requested.When I told mom about it earlier, she was so happy to have her family and aunt Lisanna’s joined together and has been in a good mood all day. Despite Lana being four years older than Yohan, you’d think the otherwise when you witness how dominate he is over her. I guess that’s just a trait for the alpha blood.About to turn away from watching the couple when I see the boys returning from their ‘stroll’.Asher looks exhausted…actually, he’s the only exhausted one as he’s covered in dirt and leaves sticking out in his hair. I giggle at
