Jake's POV

"Isn't that too soon mum, it isn't even three months since we got married" I said using a cough to hide my nervousness. Children with Violet, It actually didn't sound that bad.

"I don't think we're ready for kids yet mum" For the first time since she returned, I heard her voice.

"Or you guys haven't had sex yet" Kimberly deadpanned.

"Kim" Thomas whispered,

"What? I'm just saying the truth. That bastard didn't even come to visit her in the hospital. How do you expect them to have kids at this rate?" Kimberly continued not minding if the elders were present. She was just too furious.

"Not now Kim." Violet warned weakly, "I'm sorry for that mum and dad, you should carry on with your meal"

I looked at my Dad and saw the stern look he passed. Kimberly just had to ruin this perfectly fine dinner.

After what Kimberly said, dinner became quiet. Everyone ate with their own thoughts in mind. Zion kept urging me to place more food on Violet's plate which I did, only that she kept givi

    Jake's POV"Why are you back?" I asked Kimberly who had already shoved me walking right into the house."Violet!" She yelled. When she didn't get a response she went upstairs to Violet's room completely ignoring me like I wasn't visible. The audacity of her to do that to me in my own house.It was 9 pm already and the others had left. Kimberly left too. But she came back and is in Violet's room right now.Should I go eavesdrop? Nah, how will they think of me if I'm caught? But then again, I'm really curious. In the end, I decided against it and waited patiently for them on the couch.Violet's POV,"I don't want to go again," I whined amidst Kimberly's cajoling."But you promised, you just can't leave me hanging like this!" Kimberly pouted as she tried to get me to stand up from the bed."I changed my mind. There's no point in going.""There are many points" Kimberly's eyes widened as she started listing them, "there are hot men, good wine, blasting loud music, and then there's dancing

  • Rejection and Marriage   At the club

    Violet's POVI had already braced myself for the loud music when I agreed to come here with Kimberly, but I didn't expect the cacophony of an excuse for music that threatened to deafen me."I'll just go get us some drinks, you can seat over there," Kimberly said pointing at an empty couch in the lounge before she left swaying her hips to the music.Now I was alone. I had no idea what to do. It was not my first time coming to a club, but it's been a while since I came here.I tried squeezing myself so one of those sweaty bodies won't touch me as I walked to where Kimberly instructed."Hey beautiful," A guy with a buzz cut grabbed my hand and I yelped for him to release it but he didn't. He turned me so he could back-hug me, his hands hugging my torso so I wouldn't run away.I don't know if the wolfsbane heightened my hearing and sense of smell, but believe me when I say the smell emanating from the sweaty body of people made me nauseous."Let go of her you prick!" Thank goodness. The m

    Jake's POVI wouldn't have been so mad if I didn't see that guy holding her so intimately. The first thing I saw when I walked in was Violet dancing with so random guy.My emotions got the better of me and now I'm thrown across the club while that guy is tending to my mate who just fainted."Get the hell away from her," I seethed, pushing him away so I could lift Violet. I gave him one last deadly glare before stomping out of the club.Thomas followed me together with Kimberly who was shedding non-stop tears.I dropped Violet gently in the backseat when I reached where my car was parked."Call doctor Frank. Tell him to come down to the pack house immediately" I told Timothy who carried out my orders as soon as I instructed."It's all your fault. The next time you want to continue your stupid wayward life, leave Violet out of it!" I spat at Kimberly. It didn't bother me that she sobbed harder.Timothy held my hand to make me stop but I shoved him away and walked around the car to the d

I looked at my surroundings and noted I was inside a house. Everything smelt of wood."My beloved is immobile in some place and you tell me you had no choice. You have a choice mother. You have to go back to the supreme king and accept his offer." Safina yelled."But that would be abandoning my people." Hapoda tried to reason."The queen is wicked anyway. With or without, your people are meant to suffer. Besides, it's only one coven. You can still look over the rest of your people. Only one coven will perish mum" Safina said softly as she held both her mother's hands. "Please,""It's been 300 hundred years," Hapoda said solemnly."And I still can't forget him,""I'll think about it.""Thank you, mum," Safina cleaned her eyes.I was trying to understand what was happening when my surroundings suddenly changed.

    Jake's POV"She's okay and would be up soon," Those were the doctor's parting words before he left. He said her immune system was weak and it was hard for her to digest the alcohol that she drank. I blame Kimberly for all of this!I sat on the chair by her bedside, waiting for the moment she would flutter those eyes open. But she didn't. The doctor said she'd be up anytime soon, yet after 3 hours that 'soon' was yet to arrive."Violet," I called out softly when I saw her eyebrows crease. She finally opened her eyes. "Hey," I took her hands in mine but she was quick to slip it out immediately."Where's Kimberly?" I can't believe those were the first words she uttered as soon as she woke."Forget Kimberly," I dismissed, "how are you feeling? Should I call the doctor?" I tried not to leak the worry in my voice. How could she ask of Kimberly first?! What about me, her mate?!"I'm good," She said dryly, "is my mum here?""I didn't tell her so she wouldn't worry but I'm sure my mum has r

    Jake's POV"She's in very critical condition,"I nodded my head at the doctor's words. I expected considering the amount of blood she lost. That's right, Felicia is not dead.When I saw her bloodied body on the floor I thought she was dead. But on getting closer, I saw her hands move. Her breathing was very faint, I knew I had to act fast if not the only chance to find Emily will be lost.I would have loved to take her to our pack's doctor but her health was too critical to be left unattended. So, unfortunately, I'm still in Cross wood pack, in front of Alpha Hemp, trying to talk to him like the civilized people we both are pretending to be. Normally, we both want to tear each other apart, but now is not the time for that."So little boy–""It's Alpha Jake to you," I corrected him with a smile I'm sure irked him."You have not yet assumed the alpha position so it's safe to say you are still a boy. Besides, what's an alpha without a pack? You and your pack members are more like rouges

    Jake's POV"Are you ready to talk?!" I jeered at Hemp who sat haughtily on his throne with his legs crossed. For someone who has stripped naked a while ago, he was quite thick-skinned."You're the one who needs information from me don't use that tone on me!" He cleared his throat and expertly avoided eye contact knowing fully well that I could snap his neck at any time."Alright. Tell me what you know about Felicia," I said more calmly."It was a vampire.""That I know already," I replied as a matter of fact."Well...I was quite surprised to know that vampires were still in existence. Last I remember, they went extinct 300 years ago during the great war between the three clans.""And?" I asked hurriedly. Hemp cleared his throat at my evident impatience."According to him, his master has scores to settle with you. He brought Felicia to me so I could protect her for a while. Heard she stabbed your mate with Rougebane," He laughed,'He's telling the truth' Zion suddenly said and most of

It’s been two days now and I’ve not seen any sign of her or even…Jake.“I’m busy with something, I’ll come visit when I have the opportunity” she lied. I knew she did. “I know you’re feeling guilty, no need to lie to me. You know what? Just come over so we could talk. I’m bored shitless and you not being here is making things worse for me” I tried convincing to see if she could come around.“What about Jake?” She asked and I went placid over the line. Sensing my uneasiness, she quickly said “give me ten minutes, I’m close by” and she quickly ended the call. I sighed and kept the phone on the desk by the desk side. What will I do without Kimberly? She always comes running whenever I find myself in a fix. Well, I'm always in trouble so technically, Kimberly has always been with me. Meanwhile… I have a mate who doesn’t care. He didn’t come again after I told him to leave yesterday. I waited for him to come throughout the

They are destined to be together and as such the supreme God granted her request to be reincarnated with Alocaus. This has been planned for years now."I wasn't surprised when I got the idea of things.

    Violet's POVWould I be able to walk away from him? I had asked him to let me go, and I had talked big but the moment he freed me, I couldn't move a muscle.It felt like a magnet held me in place and I couldn't move no matter how much I willed myself to."Do you remember high school?" I slowly slid down to the floor. "When you humiliated me in front of all the students, juniors included. You know, even after what you did, I still couldn't stop myself from liking you. I was upset, I even ignored you, but every time I saw you, even from a mile away, I wished you'd just say a simple hi to me. I still feel the same way now. I wish you'd greet me good morning, I wish you'd ask about my day, but you never did, and I only ended up feeling hurt." I stared into space as I reminisced those memories."I have always liked you Violet, but the anger I felt every time I remembered how you pushed Emily... I just saw you as plain evil. Someone who would kill her close friend to get what she wants." J

A good night's rest will relieve all the stress I had to put up today. I deserve that at least. I settled my bag in one corner of my room– will arrange it tomorrow, and prepared to go take a bath.Wrapping a towel around my body, I was about to go into the bathroom when my door flung wide open."What do you think you're doing?!" I yelled at Jake as I held tightly unto my towel. I watched as he lustfully trailed his eyes from my legs to my face. I guess he felt how serious I was when his gaze landed on mine and he began to stutter."I– I...um...Dinner is ready,""Is that the reason you couldn't knock?" I questioned caustically."Take a chill pill. I didn't kno

Did she go home?I went to my father's study to go inquire about her whereabouts. Violet will never leave without informing my father."She went to the forest at the back for a run," Those were my father's words. That should be relieving– I knew where she was, but why did that feel unnerving? I felt like something bad happened."Where are you going?" Thomas shouted after me as I ran past him."The forest," I don't know if he heard me. I had run quite far before I yelled. I went to the back of the pack house first and I saw Violet's bundle of clothes. She must have changed into her wolf, which means she was going to take this route to get to her clothes.I picked up her clothes and ran into the forest. Changing into my wolf would have made everything easier but I decided against it. Only the moon goddess knows what Zion would do to Violet if I let him out.Aft

    Violet’s POVWas I wrong to be thinking about my nakedness at this moment?If I wanted to get answers from Emily, I would have to change into my human form. I didn’t bring any clothes with me and it was the first time someone would see me naked. Apart from my mum who was with me on my first shift, no one has seen me naked. Nudity was very common within werewolves but since I haven’t gotten used to being naked around others…I practically act like a human.I know right. Silly of me to be thinking about my nakedness in this kind of situation. I turned back to look at Kendrick who was still laying behind the log of wood- wasn’t he uncomfortable naked? - and then at Emily, who stood smugly in front of me without saying anything. I take that she thought I was surprised seeing her here, meanwhile, I was contemplating if I should shift, or just run away. No. running was not an option; I would seem like a coward.“Surprise!” Emily exclaimed and I growled. “You’re still as feisty as the last t

The pack house was uncomfortable for me as there was no one I could talk to and I’m always on pins and needles around the alpha and Luna, afraid I’ll make a mistake. The pack house was more lively than I could remember or maybe I didn’t remember it at all as I always avoid coming here. Everyone appreciates the effort I make in avoiding the pack house as they didn’t really like me as well. Now that I had already married Jake and was the potential future Luna of the pack, they started acting awkwardly around me. I guess they didn’t know how to act since all they’ve ever done was insult me in the past. “Violet…” it has been long since I heard that voice. My wolf, Jumi. Ever since the rejection from Jake, she had cut contact with me and the outside world and has slept t herself ever since. The last time I felt her was when I fought with Felicia in the female’s restroom at the crescent moon anniversary. “Hey” I called out t
