Hi :) what do you think of the chapter? please VOTE./COMMENT/REVIEW. Thankyou :)
Nina’s pov- I wanted to get air, to walk, run. To just be anywhere that I can breathe clearer in order to make sense and get an understanding of the mind tricks that my mind was so obviously playing with me. “That’s not a good idea Darlin” Maverick gulped with a tense jaw. “And why not? Because your stupid fog won’t be able to reach me for you to be able control me anymore?” I fired at him, my anger on the rise and I was hit with this strength and energy that I wanted to use, to burn off. “It’s not safe” he raised his voice his fine jaw line ticking with his own rising anger. I scoffed at the ridiculousness of his words. The audacity this guy has to even speak those words to me like he has a single ounce of care for my safety after he was the one who had attacked me, he fucking bit me. “of course I care for your safety, and I didn’t attack you” he defended trying to keep his calm but the balled-up fists of his where the dead giveaway. ‘In a human’s point of view, you kinda did br
Maverick’s pov- I was pacing at the bottom of the staircase with a need, all I seem to do lately is pace and pace. The upstairs of the house was in an unnerving silence, it had been that way for the past ten minutes since father attempted to give Nina a clearer mind. An although they hadn’t spoken a word to each other since she admitted her fears I kept shamelessly eavesdropping and robbing yet another thing from her. She deserved her privacy, of course she deserved her privacy, but I couldn’t give her that when I was so on edge, when she was so on edge so much so that she was making it near impossible for me to block out her mind from my own. She really truly believes that I had purposely wanted to bring harm to her, that I wanted to kill her. She has to know that I would never willingly want to see her in pain. She was confused, her mind was tormented with the lack of understanding of what I had dragged her into. I wanted nothing more than to march myself up those stairs and force h
Nina’s pov- “I-Im scared” I struggled to get my words out as I broke in my uncle’s arms. The sense of comfort and homely feeling that he wrapped me up in did nothing to help build my broken barriers back up. It was clear to me that my life had made a drastic change, never capable of returning to what was my level of normality. My life would never be normal, I would never be on the same level as the other teens my age, I was physically not normal anymore. This thing inside of me was a constant, I can feel it like it was waiting for the perfect time to posses me. I was afraid of what it would make me do if I gave it the power to control me. Maverick had the same beast inside of him, he was so much stronger than me and even he could not keep it down. How was I supposed to keep it from getting out, keep it from hurting others. I wasn’t strong enough to fight it so it’s inevitable that it will one day get out and God forbid bring harm to an unsuspecting victim. How was I to live with that?
Maverick’s - Distance was what was best for her. I had taken away so much from her that the least I could do was remove myself from her sight, she didn’t need the reminder that I was the reason for her suffering. Peace of mind was what she deserved and the only way I could give her that was to be unseen. So here I was hiding away in the stables with the horses, forcing myself to block her thoughts from mine. My brothers respectfully had done the same, it was only right that we gave her that solitude of privacy until she learned how to keep it strictly selective. How to not let others into that beautiful mind of hers should be the first on Jesse’s training list. “I knew I’d find you sulking out here” Carson spoke before appearing in the open doorway. I ignored his remark rising from my spot on the haystack. I was going to need a cigarette if I was to deal with him and his obvious hatred towards me for what I had done to Nina. “Don’t leave on my account” he said, his lips tucked into
Nina’s pov- With everything that had happened in the past few days you would think that I would have gone to bed exhausted last night, that once my head hit the pillow that I would have happily welcomed sleep. Well to my dismay, I didn’t get such a luxury. I had struggled so tormentingly to be able to turn off this bouncing energy that I felt rushing through my veins. I didn’t know where it had come from or the reasoning’s behind it, but it was restless. The entire night I spent tossing and turning, rolling around in the sheets so pitifully trying to shut my running mind off. I felt like I wanted to run, to just get up and move my body in anyway possible. After accepting the help that Uncle Jesse and the Kingsley boys had offered me Last night, Fred took it upon himself to make me a cup of Irish tea in hopes to calm my nerves before rustling up a feast to appease the growing hunger that I had felt. Maverick had made himself scarce, disappearing pretty much for the entire night. Levi,
Nina’s pov- I slowly made my way towards the Kingsley’s house. I was purposely dragging my feet afraid that I would bump into a Kingsley brother or more a specific Kingsley brother. I know its childish and juvenile to be avoiding someone that I was inevitably going to bump into, and you can call me weak if you will, but I wasn’t sure I was ready for the drama that I’m sure would come when we eventually confront what had happened between us. Uncle Jesse had told me to be behind the stables for nine o’clock sharp. It was now nine thirty-five and I had not one clue as to which one of these buildings was the stables. How could one property have so much space and places to get lost in? ‘It’s the grey building sweetheart’ Levi’s voice came to mind, and I glanced around, awkwardly finding no sign of him. ‘Id hurry too, Jesse has gone on the hunt for Carson and then he will be looking for you’ he added before the silence. It was weird, so fucking weird how he was able to do that, how any of
Nina’s pov- I glanced around the open land of grass to see the various items of gym equipment scattered across the open space. I couldn’t name a single thing apart from a skipping rope and weights, everything else was new and unknow to me. “Is this where you guys’ train?” I asked, my eyes with a mind of their own drifting to the direction of Maverick who still was relentlessly digging his fists in to the boxing bag with such technique. “Every day without a failure” Came the reply but I was so entranced with watching Maverick that I didn’t pay enough attention to know who had been the one to answer my question. “You know he’s been at that punching bag since six this morning” “Yeah, and he’s been ignoring everyone” “Wait, for real?” I asked unwilling to remove my eyes from the boy that held all my attention. He hadn’t noticed me; it was like he was totally oblivious to everything other than his fists hitting the bag. He had determination with each hit, and I would do anything to k
Nina’s pov- I collapsed to the grass with my ass taking the brunt of the fall, completely concentrated on nothing but my heavily heaving lungs as I made an attempt to breath through the stitches that I felt in my stomach and shoulders. It felt as if I had been running for hours when in reality, I had probably only been running for no more than twenty minutes. This was actual fucking torture, why would Uncle Jesse put his own niece through this? “Come on your not even on your twentieth lap yet” Carson stood above me with his hands on his hips so unbothered by all that running we had just done. it seemed like it was all such a breeze for him as he swiftly bounced from one side of the field to another like a friggin pinball, rubbing it in my face every time he ran past me. “You are obviously much better at cardio than I am” I released a heavy breath the pressure on my lungs easing with each controlled intake of a breath that I take. “Well, that’s obvious, I’m on lap eighty-three” he r
I entered the kitchen with a drag in my steps. Couldn’t Maverick understand where I was coming from? Couldn’t he understand that I was processing everything as best that I can, and I can’t skirt around certain topics because he simply doesn’t want to hear it.“He will be fine once he’s cooled off sweetheart” Levi grabbed my attention, he was sat in the same spot only instead of shovelling a sandwich into his mouth he was happily crunching away on an apple. “I promise I tried not to listen in, but it was kind of hard with the hearing that I have” he chuckled, his light amusement was his way of trying to lighten the dampness that Mav and I’s drama had caused.“Am I wrong?” I found myself asking as I dragged my feet across the kitchen in order to plug my phone and charger into a socket.“There is no right and wrong, this is new to both of you.” he answered, and I turned to face him.“Do you agree with Maverick? That what I said was bullshit?” I shot another question his way, I don’t know
My breathe evened out as I slowly but surely recovered from the past ten minutes, no not even just the past ten minutes but the entirety of this morning with Maverick. I was totally turning into one of those girls that was boy crazy. Not just any boy but a certain boy that not only gets under my skin but can at the same time turn those beautiful sparks to flames. Yeah, boys where something that had been a thing to cross my mind, of course it was. I was seventeen years old and haven’t been shy to experiment. But Maverick was something new, the way he captures my attention is beyond anything I have ever experienced. Nobody had ever brought such captivation out of me. He oozed everything manly from the way he dressed to the way he smelled. He was thrilling, dangerous even and dare I say it as hot as hell fire.Glancing around Levi’s room I took in the dark theme, much like Maverick’s room the colour theme was a mixture of dark oaks and black, grey shades. Everything was neat, his bed was
Nina’s Pov- I stood at the top of the stairs unsure of what room would be Levi’s. I know the room opposite the bathroom was Mavericks his overpowering scent was literally drawing me to it. I took a deep breath and sniffed the air, God I felt ridiculous doing it, but I caught the familiar scent that I was looking for, his scent was faint and overpowered by that sweet yet manly scent that was so intriguingly Maverick. I followed the light scent of what I could only place as spring and a touch of sweetness like berries of some sort. I followed Levi’s scent towards the room one door down form Maverick’s, I didn’t know why but I found myself pausing outside his door, like the room had some magical entities that invited me in. my fingertips reached out wrapping around the doorknob and I groaned out loud maybe if I peaked in to the room then the need to enter would dimmish a little. Oh god I was physically fighting with myself in order to avoid embarrassing myself again by doing somethings a
“Are you ok?” Maverick asked, his lips brushing ever so gently over mine with the movement caused by his question. My cheeks flushed, I had or more so my beast had just licked him like a dog. Not only does she appear unannounced and unwelcomed she leaves me with the mortification of her actions.“That’s a blush I don’t mind seeing” he said softly taking my chin between his finger and thumb and with the smallest of tilts he brought our lips together. My eyes closed all on their own with the gentle touching of our lips. So soft, so tingly and then nothing. I opened my eyes at the loss of contact, his thumb still held me in place as he watched me as if waiting for my reaction.“No fight?” he asked, his lips tugging into a gentle smile as he waited for a reply but I wasn’t going to give him one formed with words instead I caught his bottom lip between my teeth and tugged gently. The action completely new to me but definitely all me. He groaned, encasing my head between the palms of his ha
“Mav” I began to panic as I turned in his hold, his eyes where golden so brightly lit by his wolf as they staired back at me. I raced through my clouded mind. It felt odd, like there was fog surrounding my entire brain and forcing me out. I sifted through the memory of the past minute trying to figure out the reason for the drastic change in not only me and my surroundings but of Maverick’s sudden stone like behaviour. And then it hit me, the growl I had heard moments ago whilst I was consumed in everything that was Maverick wasn’t one that I had grown accustomed too. I franticly glanced around us seeing that we were alone, no Levi and no intruder.“That wasn’t you who growled was it?” I asked and he shook his head. He looked tense, concentrated even. Concentrated on what? I don’t know.“Me?” I asked and he nodded the thick bob of his throat visible as he gulped in the weird tension that now settled between us. I found myself staring intensely at every detail in the action as he swall
I glanced to Kat and her fearful expression as the toxicity and tension between the males the we so happen to have in our company had the air so thick it was almost chocking. The information Lucas had just forced upon us had left me with nothing less of a whiplash effect. Everything in this damn town comes out of nowhere. Everything is so sudden and unexpected I have no time to consume and adjust to the newness of everything before I’m thrown against another wall of craziness. “You have five seconds to leave my territory” Maverick demanded the attention of everyone with his thick authoritative tone. “one” he began to intimidatingly count. “We aren’t here to cause any trouble” Katarina scrambled to pick up the chain on the floor in front of Lucas, I watched as she shoved it into his chest with a burning gaze and he reluctantly nodded his head as she proceeded to place the chain back around his neck, his blazing fiery orange eyes dulled until the they faded back leaving the eyes of a
“Mav” I called after him, I was itching to move and follow but at the same time I wanted to truly try to keep from starting another argument with him less than twenty minutes after calling a truce with him. “Where the fuck is she” Lucas’s livid tone cut me from my calm resolve, Forcing me to break out of the spot I was stood in and into a run. the attempt at staying put was futile as I rounded the side of the house and in to the front yard only to come face to face with two hostile and ready to throw down boys. “I’m only going to tell you once more, leave before I throw you in the damn boot of your car and drive you off my land myself” Maverick threatened his entire body so visibly tense. “what’s going on” I cut through the thick hostility in the air, hoping in someway my presence might break the ice between the two boys and there show of dominance between each other. “Nina” Katarina let out as she climbed out of the passenger side of Lucas’s car and with her words Lucas sighed wit
Silence was everywhere. The tension Levi had left behind was thick in the air. Not only that but I was worried about him, the feeling of concern flowing in my chest as I watched the door swing shut with his leave. “Is he going to be, ok?” I asked unsure but certain that something was playing with Levi’s emotions. He was so… how do I put it? passionate and adamant that Maverick an I have something. “He’s just going through some things. He will be fine” Maverick reassured as I turned to face him. “you know he’s right, all we do is fight. Fighting with you is exhausting” I admitted and I wasn’t even afraid to admit it because it was the truth. I was drained of fighting everything that crosses me and lately there isn’t a day that goes by where I am not arguing with or crying over someone. “I can agree with that darling” he let out a scoff of a chuckle. “I” I began but closed my lips. I didn’t know what to say or if I should even say something because I was for sure still so angry with
Maverick stepped through the thresh hold of the door, his eyes instantly finding mine. All that anger from last night had vanished because all I felt right now was thankfulness that he had been there for me through that pain and although he physically didn’t hold me last night somehow I knew he was there, easing the pain from the outside of the barn. He took his eyes from me to the twins, his jaw clenching before returning his stormy gaze back on me and without a word he walked straight past me. I swivelled on my heels to face his retreating form, confusion hitting me head on. “Mav?” I called after him, a pang of pain hit my chest at the lack of acknowledgement. He was angry and that was evident with each silent stomping stride away from me, I know last night our drama was heated but I thought that after he had been there to help me through the pain that followed our drama that we could attempt to communicate on a civil and grown-up level. Although I didn’t want to do that last nigh
