Gwen's POV“Thank you Alpha Blake for even listening to me! Thanks! At a more strategic time, you can deal with them!” I said to him calmly. It was nice to have someone who would actually listen to you.He turned to face me as he took a step closer which sent a shiver down my spine. I looked into his eyes and I saw a look which was intense and raw. I recognize it to be lust or desire but there was something else to it that I couldn't place a finger at, something more controlled and restrained. I could see him fighting it so much but I don't know what it was.“You should rest up, you need to be relaxed but be well assured that no form of harm is coming to you here. You are safe now,” He said instead with a hoarse voice as he led me back to the bed.“Thank you so much, Alpha Blake!” I exclaimed as I felt a sense of gratitude then exhaustion washed over me.He walked to the door but paused as he got there, and turned with a smile. “If you need anything, just anything even if it sounds ri
Gwen's POVIt's been three days or more. As I laid in my bed, my body was slowly beginning to heal under the expert care of the beautiful lady who I learnt her name is Nora. I noticed a particular herb she used on my injuries and when I asked her what they were, she called them the lunar bloom flower. It has delicate petals and a soft ethereal glow to it.And I am sure it is as a result of that flower which Nora said it enhances healing, I don't feel any sting, pain or discomfort from my injuries as it seems the flower had worked its gentle magic on me. My injuries at this moment were almost dried up and I could also feel its soothing presence even hours after being applied. It was a balm for not only my body but my weary soul.I slowly drifted off to sleep as the room around me slowly blurred and faded away from my vision. I assume this was also a result of the flower because sleeping has become easier than before. I noticed that my sleep these days was being haunted by strange and v
Gwen's POVI watched as days turned into weeks and I found myself becoming more comfortable in my new pack than I had ever been! However, there was a little hesitation from me when I noticed how nice and caring the whole pack members were unlike in the Stormfur pack where they were hostile and so condescending.Alpha Blake had urged me to always come out of my room and explore my new surroundings and with his help, I had met new people, enjoyed myself, and felt comfortable and relaxed.I was happier than before, though I still had my strange dreams which I haven't told anyone, not even Alpha Blake but I hope one day I will be completely honest and courageous enough to drop all the burden I was bearing.All the members of the pack, even though at higher levels all related well and they were unlike anyone I had ever met. Alpha Blake and his pack members were kind and genuinely caring towards me which stood in stark contrast to the cruelty I had to experience with Derek and in Stormfur p
Blake's POVI was captivated by her presence and couldn't help but stare at her. She was mesmerizing and breathtaking since the first day I set my eyes on her. I can't deny that there isn't something that drew me to her, something special apart from our special bond mate. There just had to be an invisible force that compels me to her and also makes me want to learn new things about her.She was very different and unique in a way that stirred something up in me, deep within.She might be an omega but she was just too beautiful to be just an omega and I was curious to know her more. Her type won't have warranted a second glance from me but like I said she had become the center of my world.As much as I was interested in finding other things about her, I had to task my beta, Felix, to help me with some findings about her. Who was she? Who are her parents? Where they are and likes and if she was actually telling the truth about her past to me. But I don't think anyone with reasonable sense
Gwen's POVIt had been an amazing day with Blake as I collapsed into my bed. As tired as I was, my mind couldn't help replaying all the beautiful moments spent with him. His promise and obvious care for me. I was grateful for this lot, never ever have I thought someone would care for me deeply but here I was. Then I remembered the moment Blake said he wanted to tell me something.And for a short hopeful moment, I thought he was going to confess his feelings for me but I think I got over myself with that as he brushed it off as nothing. I shouldn't have gotten over myself, he cared for me platonically even though it wasn't as romantically as I thought. I am okay with that, at least he cared for me which was better than my treatment in Stormfur Pack over the years.Though this harsh reality bit and gnawed at me, I allowed my resolve to be hardened. I needed to clean up and the thought of getting up to do that felt like work. I was becoming lazy!Just then there was a knock on my door wh
Gwen's POVBlake's question bothered me but in a good way. For a few seconds, I wondered what his meaning was. Did he really want us to sleep together?Not like I had a problem with that but I took a little time to process his words."Hey, don't think it through so deeply, I was only joking." He had this very sincere look in his eyes that I almost cursed him for such an expensive joke.I remained quiet unable to voice my intentions and desires as well."I'll arrange for the maid as you have requested but in the meantime I think you need to rest a while. Blake was so gentle that I hated myself for repeatedly thinking too much about so many things.'He is just a good guy that genuinely cares about you, Gwen!' I scolded myself inwardly for ever thinking otherwise."Do you by any chance mind if I cross a fancy line and trespass a little?"Wait what?!What was he talking about?"Huh?" I could barely comprehend his meaning, I raised a questioning brow but he only asked for courtesy sake, my
Gwen's POVI woke to a piercing ring in my eyes as I felt a strong surface around me, the sensation I got was both comforting and unfamiliar. I opened my eyes and everything was blurry for a minute before my eyes adjusted and I found myself staring into the piercing blue eyes of concern that belonged to Alpha Blake.His eyes held a mixed expression of worry and concern and something else… something deeper than I could place a finger on. I slowly averted my gaze from his and allowed it to wander around the room. I was still in my room but on Alpha Blake's arm. I caught sight of Aurelia and Elgiva standing nearby, they both looked sad, anxious, and curious and I could understand their emotions. Their first day of serving me hadn't gone well.My eyes finally caught the sight of Nora who was hovering over her healing tools and some visible herbs and she had a face masked with cold disdain. I know that look anywhere, it was the only way most people at Stormfur Pack looked at me and I have
Gwen's POVI was taken aback by Blake's question as I stared at him in utter confusion. Why would he say such a thing? How does my fainting have anything to do with killing him?“Blake, what do you mean by that? I didn't even know when I fainted or why I fainted even though Nora said it was a result of stress and I should rest! I literally don't know what you mean,” I asked him, concerned and confused etched across my face.But instead of answering my question, he inhaled sharply and loudly which caused his shoulder to rise and fall with the deep breath he took. He just shook his head at me before standing up from where he was seated.“I will never try to kill you as you have only been the kindest person I have come across in my whole twenty plus years on earth,” I said to him, trying to answer to the best of my knowledge. Why would he think I was to kill him? That's absurd, isn't it?“Don't worry about what I said, it is not of any importance!” He said with a soothing yet distant voi
