Damon stood up and stepped away from Theo, if he didn't he might just do something drastic.“Get out!” He said in a bitter voice.Theo gaped at him. “How did you… How could?”“I’m not going to repeat myself,” Damon said.Theo stood up, swaying. He ran a hand through his hair, ruffling it and blond strands fell onto his face.“You knew,” He said again, still not over the shock yet and Damon doubted even he would ever be.The betrayal had been horrible, soul-wrenching. Aria had not only cheated on him with his friend, but she had also gotten pregnant with him.She had told him as soon as it had happened, crying, confessing, and begging to be forgiven.And Damon hadn't forgiven her. There were just some things beyond forgiveness and she had done one of them.But he had loved her, that was not untrue, and it was why he'd kept her secret and agreed to take the child as his, and everything had been going well.That was until she had visited the sorceress.**** **** **** ****I loved the nig
Stunned silence followed Theo’s words and even I was shocked, I could only stare with my mouth hung open. I turned to Damon to see he was looking at Theo, his lips twitching - he wasn't angry, not even in the slightest, in fact, Damon was utterly amused.“Theodore, for goodness sake!” Alex barked.My dad approached him and angrily grabbed him by the collar.“Have you gone mad?” He yelled. “I understand your grief and anger but challenging the Alpha, do you realize what you're saying?”Theo struggled to get away from dad's grip, shoving him off.“I know what I am saying and I stand by it. The Alpha has gone weak and whatever is happening and will continue to happen to our pack is because of him!” Dad swung his arm and punched Theo squarely on the face, he crouched holding his nose and when he rose with his eyes blazing with anger, blood trailed from his nose.“Who knew we had no freedom of speech in this pack?” He asked in a sarcasm-laced tone.“Oh of course you do, Theo. I'm sorry yo
Alex gaped at me after my utterance, I simply smiled at him, waiting. The warriors that had gathered around us were also watching me in surprise.“You want to join us in the house-to-house search?” He asked, repeating my earlier words.I folded my hands across my chest. “Yes, that is exactly what I’d just said.”“Why?” He blurted.I raised my brows at him. “What do you mean why?” He cleared his throat. “I mean, I understand why you'd requested for us to conduct a house-to-house search today and we shall do that, but why do you want to join? And I don't mean that in any manner disrespectful.”I smiled at him. “None taken.”He watched me, waiting for my response.“I made a promise to the members of this pack to ensure their safety and I shall do that. The alpha is busy with ledgers and office paperwork, I am not good at any of that but I consider myself quite perceptive and I am going to put that to good use.I am aware that a house-to-house search has been conducted before and I am no
I was yet again blanketed by the night, its silence offering me comfort. I hadn't thought of what I would tell Damon when he comes into the room from his office to meet it empty but now, that was the least of my concernsI was excited at what tonight could hold. I knew despite it, I had to be careful, careful of what I said and would do, I was taking such a huge risk.If anything, no matter how small went wrong, then it would all be likey over for me. If anyone knew I was meeting the vampires late at night, I knew what would happen to me because I was committing the highest form of treason and it was part of the reason my stomach erupted with butterflies.I, Eliana, was committing treason against the Dark Moon pack.“This is wrong and you know it!” Hazel snapped at me.“Or you could quit being a wolf, get a body of your own and make everything in this world all right and pristine,” I said, shutting her up.The leaves crunched beneath my feet as I made my way through in hurried strides
I didn't even know if to laugh or be offended. Theo was a fucking pest! Was he now stalking me? And how in hell had I not realized he'd been following me?He reached us and looked from me to Adrianne, and then back to me.“Don’t you wonder, Luna, how we always find ourselves meeting at unusual places?” He asked.“You’re following me,” I said in a dry tone, trying to calm down the storm that had erupted within me. Theo didn't know Adrianne was a vampire, and he had been too far off to hear anything we had discussed“Yes, I am.” He confessed with a shrug glancing once again at Adrainne who stood stoic. “Because I don't trust you, now who's this?”I chuckled, turning away at the ridiculousness of this whole thing. Should I just kill him off? He wouldn't be missed, the man was such an incompetent idiot, I felt second-hand embarrassment at his existence.“Who are you?” Adrianne asked, walking closer.“Theo,” He said, stretching his hand, and like I had done to her, Adrianne ignored him. Sh
Damon sat up slowly, he reached out a hand and collected the wristwatch from Alex. The glass was broken and it had blood stains on it.I stared at it mouth agape. The first and last time I’d seen it was on the day it had been gifted to me, I remember discarding it on the table because I knew I was never going to wear it, ever.“I’ve never seen this with Alena,” Damon said. “Theo! That lying bastard!”“It’s mine, dad gave it to me on the night of the party and I’d kept it in the bedroom. Amidst the chaos of that night, I totally forgot about this, I've never worn this wristwatch a day in my life.” I explained.Damon turned to me. “It’s yours?” He asked.I nodded.“He’s obviously lying.” I said, “I have no reason to attack Theo and why would I leave my wristwatch lying there? It makes no sense.”“Someone is setting you up,” Damon said in a low voice, turning to me.I was well aware of that fact. Theo was, I didn't know his plans but this stupid move had his M.O all over it.Damon contin
How do you get the attention of someone who wants to have absolutely nothing to do with you?It's been three days and Damon has actively been avoiding me. His spot on the bed next to me was cold, he hadn't slept in it for the past few days. When he wasn't outdoors, he spent his time in his office where he had his dinner and slept in.It was unsettling, to say the least. I had never felt this silence from his end before, and it was so because it was my fault. I hadn't lost sight of my goal - I could never, but like I’d said, I was going to take whatever he has to offer, and so far I wasn't liking this bad. I was bored out of my mind and nothing was helping ease it.“There have been rumors,” Marina was saying. It was late evening, and we were in the sitting room having tea and cakes.I didn't say anything in response and so she continued.“Of course, I know it's not true but apparently they said Theo defied you and Damon unleashed on him or something like that, it's all distorting tale
“I have been so worried about you,” Aunt Aurora said, running her hands down my shoulder. “I made something.”She said moving towards the table, she picked up a necklace with a tiny rock and placed it in my palms.“We can converse through this, your mother made one for me and herself before…” I nodded and tucked it inside the inner pocket of the coat.“Have you found her?” I asked, referring to the witch who had made the anthurium potion.Aunt Aurora’s expression turned somber.“I have,”Excitement swelled in me. “Where does she stay?”“Eliana,” She said, holding my hands in hers. “My darling girl, I know you have suffered so much but are you sure about this? You know you are welcome here, it’s been long enough, and no one cares about your mother’s mistake anymore. We will accept you where you rightfully belong.”“As long as you all keep seeing me as Mother's mistake, this isn't the right place for me,” I said.She took in a sharp breath. “You know that's not what I mean, I worry for
