“Maya!” Jess yelled, her voice, cracking and breaking since it was still swollen form the last screams. Jess looked around, but she couldn’t see anything.
“Maya! Where are you?” Jess continued to scream; I sigh of relieve left her when she saw a shadow from afar. Jess took a few steps forward. But halted as the shadow split to form four shadows.
“Maya?” Jess whispered softly. The four shadows became clear and turned into the four brothers.
“Jessica?” Matthew called out to her. Jess frown why were they here, where was her sister? The boy’s stopped a few feet away from her. The snowfall wasn’t as hard anymore, so she could see them clearly through the few small snowflakes. Jess didn’t focus on them however, her only priority was finding maya.
“Where is she?” Jess called out to the brothers. They all looked at one another, before Xavier answered her.
“Who? Who ar
All the boys were waiting in Jessica’s hospital room. She hadn’t woken up for two days now, Doc said it was due to exhausted, but it still made them unnerve. But the true irony was that they were just as unnerve by her waking up. She had just tried to kill herself and before that she laid basically lifeless for four days after the queen’s torture. So, what would she do after failing to kill herself? They were not sure if they were ready for the answer. After the queen’s torture revealed what had happen to Jess through her life, the alphas had changed their view on Jess. They wanted to hate Jess, because she was a human, she was like the people that hurt the Alphas, but they were wrong. Jess was more like them then what she was like a human. She endured more than they had, using the reason of being like them, being like the alphas tormentors was not a valid excuse anymore. As the alphas sat in her room, they replay all the times they spend with her. She was ne
Jess smiled. it was the brightest smile that everyone had seen form her since she arrived.“You swear, you’ll really show me?” Jess asked as she looked at Joshua. He nodded, he took a step forward, ready to make his way to the exit, but Xavier laid his hand against his chest and stopped him. ‘What are you doing, Joshua?’ Xavier linked him. ‘We live on a territory filled with wolves, you don’t think she’ll see them, sooner or later? Or what? Are we going to keep her locked up again? The truth of the matter is that she already knows now, she heard us. Doc said it would affect her, but look at her excitement, does that look like a girl that is scared? If she knows about our wolves, we can keep the rest, more important secrets away from her.’ Joshua said, sounding like he was planning just another strategy for another war or fight. He removed Xavier’s hand and made his way to the exit. Jess followed, barely containing he
Jessica had no words. She just kept staring out the big window in the boy’s office. They just told her how she crossed the border between their world, because she was their mates. They told her about the pack and how things function within it. They told her about the titles of the pack members and the elders. Anything they thought she would need to know, they told her. Jess didn’t know what to do with all the information. How was this even possible?“It’s so pretty.” Jess said softly as she watched the snow fall. The forest was covered in white. It looked so peaceful.“Jessica, do you want us to stop?” Matthew asked as he stood behind Jess. Jess sighed.“I want to hear what happened to me and how I got here. I want to know how this works, but of all the answers I thought I was going to hear, none of this was even a consideration. I mean I wake up and I don’t even remember my name, yet my first new memories ar
Xavier stood completely frozen, staring at Jess, staring at herself. For yet another time, his mate brought fear into his heart. Did the scars bring back Jess’s memories? Did the alphas already lose their second chance? Xavier heard as his brothers stormed down the hall into her room, they froze as they saw the seen before them. All of them holding their breaths. Wanting, no needing to know if they had already lost her again. Jess’s eyes teared up, she moved closer to the mirror and ran her finger over one of the harsh red imprints on her skin. She felt no pain, but the shock was enough to break her heart.“What happened to me?” Jess asked as a tear fell. She wasn’t sure why she was crying, she felt no pain, but knowing that at some point in her life she had someone that hated her so much that they would do this to her body truly broke her heart. Xavier moved from the doorway in front of her. Cutting off her view of her back. He grabbed a towel a
Jess could not believe what she was reading, each page she turned she thought that she could not be any more shocked, but then she flipped to the next page. The books she was read was meant for wolves who are mated to other wolves, so the boys told her that not everything would be so accurate as what the book said, but she was still astonished. Jess was currently sitting on the long sofa in the boy’s office as they worked. Jess just finished the last page, before she closed the book and made her way to the Alpha who sat closes to her Raymond and Matthew. She moved next to Raymond and sat on her heels, trying to get to his eye level, he turned to Jess, watching her strange action. Jess just sat next to him, staring at him with big eyes.“Can I help you with something?” Raymond said completely thrown off by her actions. Jess frowned at his question.“So, you couldn’t hear what I was thinking?” Jess asked as she stood up from her sittin
“Are you really going to do this?” Xavier asked as he looked at Matthew and Raymond moving the sofa and Joshua who looked at them. Matthew was the first one who of course agreed with Jess’s plan, but strangely enough Raymond also agreed, and Joshua didn’t argue, which basically means yes to him.“Come on, Xavier. It’s going to be fun.” Jess said as she brought more blankets and pillows. He sighed and rolled his eyes, realizing that he already lost the battle.“Fine, but then I’ll need liquid courage.” Xavier said and walked out of the room only to return later with glasses in his hand and a bottle filled with a brown liquid inside. He poured some of the liquid in three glasses and handed them to his brother, before pouring himself a glass and finding a place to sit. Jess looked at all of them drinking the liquid and frowned.“What about mine?” Jess asked and looked at Xavier. He looked over
Jess woke up in the middle of the voice, her head was hurting a bit. Jess sat up in bed and was relieved to find a glass of water next to her. When she went to reach for it, she was stopped by a heavy hand that rested in hers. She followed the arm, to find that at the end of it was Matthew. He was sleeping on the ground in a sitting position, his back against her bed and the hand she held was in an uncomfortable position. She gently let go of his hand and placed it softly down on his lap. She pulled herself up and surveil the room, that was lit due to her bed-lamp that was on. Joshua was sleeping on the edge of the beds one corner, while Raymond slept on one of the bigger sofas in her room and Xavier was laying down on the fluffy mate in her room. Jess felt so bad as she remembered begging them to stay in her room, the bed had more than enough space for some of them to stay on it, but she knew they were trying to respect her privacy. She couldn’t explain how touched she was. J
“Wait for me.” Sarah called out as she took the steps two at a time, to reach Jess faster.“What did they send you to surveil me?” Jess asked as she crossed her eyes. Sarah laughed and rolled her eyes at Jess.“Hey, don’t act up with me, I was on your side. I told them before you came that they should speak to you about it.” Sarah said as she lifted her hands in defense.“You did? Thank you. See, I just don’t get it, if we can see that they should have talked to me first, how can’t they?” Jess said, feeling fired up. Sarah smiled again.“Duh, the answer is obvious, because they are men.” Sarah said and laughed; Jess laughed as well at her comment. Jess like Sarah, she was kind and funny.“I should have snapped at you before, I’m sorry. They just got under my skin.” Jess said, knowing her reason was stupid, but it was the truth.“Don’t
Jess removed the loose piece of rock, revealing the pages she had hide so many months ago. She held them in her hands rereading the words that were already imprinted in her brain.One can change with the blood of love in a cup. Drink it all and make the ultimate sacrifice. A strong heart will prevail with a new beginning in a new life. The blood that pulses through the reborn will bond closer with those that have sacrificed it and internal happiness will be yours in the life on a creature of the moon.But fail and you will be met with an everlasting darkness, roaming around in the afterlife with no hope of return.Bee warned that only those with a brave heart and strong bond to those they love might survive and become one of the goddess moon children.Jessica read the page she already new by heart, she tore of the last piece of the page that held the outcome for when the ceremony is not successful and placed it back into her original hiding place. Knowing
Once Jess saw maya’s name, all the memories come rushing back, it was like a wave had crushed down on her and left her completed broken. Jess didn’t know how to fell or how to act. She wanted to cry and scream all at once, but she also felt so drained that she didn’t even know if she could stand up. She was completely lost. All her memories played at once. Xavier tormenting her in the cells, but then holding her tightly at night as the slept together. It made jess dizzy and disgusted. She honestly didn’t know what to do. The pain of Maya was still in her heart and as strong as ever. She knew that she never really saw Maya the night she jumped, but just those few seconds she wanted to believe that Maya was still alive, and that Maya was still with her, she wanted to believe that she wasn’t alone.Jess stood up from the ground and started to walk, she wasn’t sure where she was going, but she needed to get out of this house. She didn’t w
Chapter: Forty-threeThings change after Jess learned the truth of the boy’s past. She felt closer to them then before and they were more open with her as more time passed. Things were great between then. They would fall asleep in someone’s room every night, have breakfast together, always joking with one another and they spent almost the entire day together.Jess liked that she was learning herself with the boys. If it wasn’t for Matthew, Jess would have never known that she hated running and if it wasn’t for Joshua, Jess would have never known that she is great at lying when it come to sparing someone else feelings. She also learned that she really liked to make-out with very attractive men. Jess was scared that the boys would get jealous of one another if Jess spent to much time with one of the boys in particular, but they never did. They were genuinely happy for one another and didn’t mind sharing, which Jess was not go
Jess sat in the living room with all the boys. Joshua stood against the wall while Matt, Ray and Zav all sat in separate chairs. No one wanted to be the first to speak, but they knew someone had too. Jess had begged them to tell her what happened, what the incident was that everyone was keeping from her. She wanted to know, she needed to know.“You should know, the barriers around everyone’s territories where only set a few years, after this incident.” Xavier began telling the story, everyone dreaded to hear.“Our mom took us to the forest, there is a clearing we use to go to everyday just to play and hang out with her. We were in our wolf’s form running around when we picked up a strange sent, we never smelt before, by the time we ran back to the place our mom was, a gun shot went off. The bullet went through her heart and killed her instantly. Our wolves rode down in pain as our bond broke with her. We were so consumed with pain, that we
Jess, Raymond and Matthew sat in the kitchen, Jess sat on Raymond’s lap as she was rolling a piece of bread in her hands, forming a ball.“You have to catch this one, Matt.” Jess said and gave him a pointed look, before lifting her arm and throwing the bread across the room, hoping it would go into Matt’s mouth. The bread flew across the room and landed on the floor; it was nowhere near Matt’s face.“You suck at throwing, love. That wasn’t even close to my face.” Matthew laughed at Jessica. Who knew a person could be such a bad thrower even if the distance was only the width of a dining-room-table? Matthew broke off a piece of bread and rolled it into a ball as Jess huffed at Matthew’s statement. She didn’t believe that she was a bad thrower, but it was Matthew who was a bad catcher. He held up his arm ready to throw and laughed as he saw Jess shut her eyes and opened her mouth. H
Jess was so annoyed, due to her fight with the boys, she never went to eat that night, because she was determined not to see them, but since she was so angry, she couldn’t sleep that night either. She kept tossing and turning, her mind still focused on the boys. So, it was safe to say with an empty stomach and no sleep she was not in the best mood. The boys had also not gotten any sleep, their wolves desperately wanting their mates close to them like the previous night. The more Jess ignored them the more irritated they felt. So, when morning came and it was time to finally go to school, the tension was high. Jess hadn’t greeted any of the boys as she made her way to the floor below them to eat breakfast with Sarah and Mike. But none of them had an appetite with the foul mood they were in. Raymond entered the kitchen as Sarah and Mike put away their dirty dishes and instructed them to take Jess to school, because they were already leaving. Jess clenched her jaw and fist
