Protecting the Wolfless Enigma Chapter 9
Izariah-I woke up with a splitting headache, but that didn’t stop me from getting up and ready for my first class. Grabbing the coat that I got from Jace, I stuffed it inside a bag and headed out the door. Since I didn’t have an afternoon class, I would have a little bit of time to take his coat to get it cleaned.I had stayed up most of the night trying to get the red paint off it but failed. I was still annoyed about what happened yesterday, yet I woke up in a good mood, despite feeling like crap. While I had been trying to clean the coat, I found myself thinking that Jace wasn’t a bad guy, perhaps someone I could even be friends with.I only had to remind myself a hundred times that he was friends with the one person I hated the most. The more I thought about it, the more I became annoyed with Braxton. Who did he think he was?Not wanting to think about Braxton, I cleared my head and focused on getting to class. As I walked down the sidewalk that would lead me to class, I noticed

Braxton-“You went too far this time Braxton!” Jace shouted as he shoved open the door to our Clubhouse.Not bothering to ask what the hell he was talking about, I checked the time on my watch. I still had another hour before my first class, but I knew he was supposed to be in class right now. As I was still finishing getting ready, I returned to tying the laces on my shoes.“Why aren’t you in class?” I asked.“Do you have any idea what I just walked in on?” Jace continued to yell at me, even though I didn’t know what the hell crawled up his ass and died.“No, but I am sure you are going to enlighten me.” Not looking up from my shoes, I turned my attention to tying my other shoe.“Those little thugs you sent after Izariah, were about to rape her!” Jace stomped into the room, planting himself directly in front of me.That had my attention. My eyes snapped up and I was filled with anger. Even my wolf was on the verge of pushing through to force me to shift. Restraining my wolf, I stood

Braxton- “What are you doing home from school?" My mother’s tone was cold, but her eyes were colder. “The question is why are you here?” I asked as I walked past her and into the house. I didn’t have a good relationship with my mother, mostly because the only thing she cared about was her image. This is assumably the only reason she is scolding me right now. I would bet money on it. “Don’t try to change the subject and don’t walk away from me while I am talking to you.” Rolling my eyes as I kept walking, I slung my bag off my shoulder and tossed it to the butler that was standing near a small table in the middle of the foyer. I ignored her because I knew it annoyed her. Walking down the hall to the grand kitchen, I passed by the cook that was busy cooking. Since I didn’t alert the staff that I would be coming in today, it was likely my mother, that had the staff come in. Unless someone was present in the house, the only staff we kept available at all times was a maid and a few wa

Izariah-Surprisingly, I managed to avoid running into anyone for the rest of the day, which was until the next day during the class, where I had been forced to sit between Braxton and Jace on the first day. When I walked into the class, I didn’t see any of the members of the Ace of Clubs. It made me wonder if they weren’t going to be in class today.Heading up to the row of seats that I sit in, I kept my gaze low, because by now everyone was whispering about what happened to me yesterday. Reaching my row, I made my way toward my seat and before I could sit down, someone jumped over the back row and right into the seat I was supposed to sit in.Looking up, I gasped when I saw that it was Jace. He didn’t say anything to me, nor did he look at me. His eyes were focused on the front of the class.“I...” I tried to speak but was quickly cut off when Braxton arrived on the other side of Jace.“That is her seat.” He said in a low tone, but there was a hint of a growl mixed in it.“I feel li

Izariah-“Does everyone have their tickets?” The professor asked the entire class after he handed them out.It was now Friday and while not much had happened these last few days, I now had a feeling that something was going to go terribly wrong. Braxton has ignored me since I left the classroom, he tried talking to me in. If I didn’t know better, I would have thought he had decided to leave me alone.I caught him glancing at me, but he would quickly look away when I looked in his direction. His leaving me alone didn’t seem as simple, no matter how nice it was not to be harassed by him. The only one that hasn’t straight ignored me was Jace, but he only just gave me a small smile and that was it.“Sir, why do only a selective few get first-class? There are more seats in first class than six.” A student from the third-row seats asked.“Are you paying for this trip?” The Professor asked and then brushed the student off as he continued. “As I told everyone during our last class, we would b

Braxton-It was time to get my plan in motion. I have been waiting for this moment since I first heard from the Professor about getting to be able to take everyone on a trip. I wish it had only been Izariah, but I knew she wouldn’t have agreed if I had asked her.“Well, what do you think of the place?” Lex asked Izariah as he slung his arm over her shoulder.Seeing him touching her like that made me feel irritated. I didn’t know why I got annoyed as I did, it was almost as if I were jealous. That couldn’t be it though because I wasn’t interested in being with anyone.“It is beautiful, are we free to do whatever we want while we are here? I would love a chance to see the beach.” Iza answered with ease in her voice which made me envious of Lex. I wish she would be able to speak to me like that. It only made me more eager to get my plan in motion.“I will do you one better. My family has a yacht that we will be using to get to the resort.” I smiled at her, knowing fully well that I was g

Izariah-“Mel!” I yelled out to my best friend, which had just fallen through the ice of the lake we were playing on.I started to panic as I watched her tiny arms try to reach for something to grab onto. Getting onto my hands and knees, I crawled toward her but stopped when I heard the ice cracking beneath me. Not wanting to fall through the ice as well, I looked around to see if there was a stick or something I could use for her to grab ahold of.Not seeing anything, I burst into tears. We knew we weren’t supposed to play on the lake when it was frozen. The only reason we went out was that the ball we had been playing with rolled out onto the lake after kicking it too hard.Neither of us knew how to swim, but since it was frozen, we thought it would be okay to get the ball. Once we realized that it was fun to skate around on the slick surface, we ignored the warnings from our parents. We were small five-year-olds, so it didn’t seem that dangerous.We have seen others on the lake man

Izariah-Once I cried all the tears I could, I wiped my face with the back of my hands. Sniffling a few times, I took a couple of deep breaths. It has been years since I have felt the extent of losing my childhood best friend.Leaning my head back, I stretched my legs out and leaned my head against the door. Closing my eyes, I tried to ready myself to face everyone again. I thought about hiding away inside the cabin I was in, but I knew that I had to keep my head up in front of others.After the stunt that Braxton pulled, I couldn’t let him win. I was not going to hide away like a coward. Slowly, I opened my eyes again and let out a long sigh.“I can do this.” I whispered to myself, trying to find the courage I needed to walk out of this room.Repeating the words in my head a few times, I pulled my heels back and used my hands to boost myself up and off the ground. Giving myself one last pep talk, I lifted my chin and straightened my spin. Turning to face the door, I placed my hand on

Protecting the Wolfless Enigma Chapter 119: Epilogue
Three Years Later Izariah- “Will you hurry up already? You don’t want to be late to your own graduation!” Rachel, my new best friend and Jace’s mate yelled from the front door of the house that I lived in with Braxton. After we officially moved to the pack, we stayed in the packhouse with his father for a bit. On the day of Braxton’s graduation, which had been two years ago, he surprised me with the keys to our own house. He explained that he hadn’t wanted to live with his father or in a house that had too many bad memories. “I am coming!” I yelled from the bathroom, where I was putting the finishing touches on my hair. As I inspected my reflection, I was reminded of the first day that I met Braxton. That morning I had been running late to class and my old friend and roommate had yelled at me to hurry. I had just barely made it in time to take my finals that day. I guess no matter how many things have changed from then until now, there were still some things that were never goin

Braxton- When we arrived at the lake, where her childhood best friend died, I wasn’t sure what I could do for her. I could sense she was hurting inside, as she experienced being back here. We were all standing in a group, near the lake, no one saying a word. When she started walking forward, I decided that this was something she was going to need to face on her own. Putting my arms out, I stopped the others from following her. If she looked back then I would join her, but her gaze remained on the center of the lake. “Just wait. If she needs us then we will be there for her, but I think the best thing for her is to support her from back here.” I explained. “Do you think that it will work? What if she is never able to shift?” Jace asked. “Then I will make sure I am always by her side to protect her.” I said with certainty. “Even without a wolf, I believe she is stronger than any of us realize.” Sebastian spoke in a faraway tone that made me glance at him. His eyes were focused on

Izariah- Taking a deep breath, I gathered my courage as I opened the car door. I barely had time to close the door before I rushed by Gwenna. She wrapped her arms around me and hugged me tightly. “I knew the moment I met you that we had a connection. I never would have suspected it is because you are my sister!” She exclaimed, speaking a little too loud in my ear for my liking. I was a little confused about how she already knew that I was her sister when I hadn’t spoken a word yet. Since I had been looking forward to this moment as well, I wrapped my arms around her and hugged her just as tight. Between her and the Alpha King, she was the one that I had been the most nervous about seeing. Meeting my biological father was scary, but it wasn’t like I needed a new father, as I already had one that I absolutely adored. Having a sister, on the other hand, was something I have always dreamed of. Seeing that she was just as thrilled with the idea, I relaxed. Not wanting to break the mom

Izariah- “Chill out, I am Millie’s boyfriend.” The man spoke in a tone that indicated that he didn’t care who I was or why I was here. “Don’t lie to me. Tell me who you are, now!” I demanded. With everything that was going on, he was the least of my problems. I have already dealt with enough, so I didn’t have time to deal with a little punk too. He was probably a few years older than me, and I could sense he was an Alpha, which didn’t explain why he was in my room. “I am not lying. If you don’t believe me, you can ask her yourself. She just left to get some ice cream, but she should be back any minute.” He said with a yawn as he leaned back and went back to playing a game on his phone like he had been doing when I entered. Not sure what to do at this moment, I shifted my weight from one foot to the other. He seemed harmless, but I still didn’t believe him. I knew Millie had a crush on Sebastian, so why was this dude claiming to be her boyfriend? Just then Sebastian barged into t

Izariah- The moment we drove through the gate that surrounded the territory; I was completely speechless. Eric, who had been driving the car, had to slow down to a crawl, as members of the pack surrounded us. It took me a moment to understand that they were all celebrating. “What is going on?” I asked, not sure what the reason was for all of this. “Two things. They are welcoming their future Luna and celebrating that their old Luna is no longer here.” Braxton answered. “Do they know it is me?” I asked. I didn’t need to ask why they were celebrating Tabitha being gone, as I am sure many hadn’t liked her. There were only a select few that knew what I was though. As far as everyone else was concerned, I was still a wolfless Omega that worked with the pack doctor. Granted, no one at the pack had cared or treated me terribly over it. There had been one group of teenage girls that had made a comment about it, but it hadn’t escalated. Braxton had been with me when I heard it and he had

Izariah- “I will grant you something, but it won’t be to find another mate. If I have learned anything, is that I don’t make mistakes twice. You have shown me that you are undeserving of love, for you don’t know the meaning of love.” As my mother speaks, she walks closer to Tabitha. “I did love them!” Tabitha yells, but my mother is unfazed by her outburst. “The fact that you think that is love, shows me that I can’t allow you to love another soul. It would be wrong of me to torment anyone with the kind of love that you have to offer. No. Instead of that, I will give you something else.” My mother places her fingers against her chin and taps them a few times, appearing to be deep in thought. “What are you going to do? I promise I won’t cause anyone any more trouble if you just let me go.” By now Tabitha looked truly scared. “And what? Allow you to roam free and give you the chance to not repent for your actions? Even if I allow you to go free, you still won’t learn anything.” She

Braxton- Seeing my father enter the room, I was a little confused about why he was here. My eyes moved to Izariah, who didn’t seem surprised at all. Moving my attention back to him, I hoped that he was here to help and not to make things worse. “My love, what are you doing here?” My mother asked innocently. “Save it. I heard everything just now.” My father growled as he stomped toward her. “You don’t understand, it isn’t like that.” The panic in my mother’s voice revealed that if there was one person in this world, she both loved and feared, it was my father. My earlier assumption that she was in control of their relationship was wrong. Now that I thought about it, it had simply been my father giving in to my mother because of his love for her. I completely understood because I would do the same for Iza. Not that I would have to worry about that, because I doubted there was a single bad cell in her body. It was also apparent that my father hadn’t known about the things my mother

Izariah- “I was wrong, I won’t do it again. Please give me another chance. If I had known she was the daughter of the Moon Goddess, I wouldn’t have tried to break them up.” Braxton’s mother pleaded with my mother. “Do you honestly believe that I care? It shouldn’t matter who someone is. All that matters is that they love each other. I chose your son for my daughter, not because of who his family is or how much money he came from. I did it because I knew they would be good for each other. If we only based someone’s standing on if they were good enough, then do you think I would allow my daughter to be with someone when his mother is so awful? Despite your beliefs, I don’t think someone’s past will define who they are.” “Then you can understand that I was only doing what I thought was best for my son. I love him and I want him to succeed in life.” Luna Tabitha seemed to have given up pleading with the Moon Goddess, as she met her gaze with unwavering certainty. “Best for him?” My bi

Izariah- Unfiltered strength flowed through me, not only mine but Braxton’s as well. Had I known that having Braxton mark me would awaken my wolf, I would have let him do it sooner. Not only had I unlocked my Goddess abilities, but I have a wolf. I still had a bit to go before I could fully be who I was meant to be, but right now none of that mattered. I would figure it out in time and once I could let go of my fear of water, I knew I would be able to shift into my wolf. My birth mother had been right, but now I knew it. Full of confidence and brimming with untapped power, I held Braxton’s hand in mine as I stepped around him. The look of shock and then anger that passed over his mother’s face was everything I had hoped for and more. When she came in and assumed that he had marked Gwenna, I couldn’t wait to prove her wrong. No longer did I fear her. Compared to me, she was nothing more than a power-hungry werewolf that couldn’t hurt me or Braxton any longer. Her threats were meani
