~Sunday
"Top of the morning to you!"
Juliette flung the curtains open, letting in a stream of bright light that almost blinded her in.
Jazz groaned from behind her, shoving a pillow over her face. Juliette pushed the window open, enjoying the cool breeze that brushed over her clammy skin.
"That's more like it," she murmured to herself. She turned, seeing Jazz still hibernating under that bloody pillow.
"And this is when you reply with, 'and the rest of the day to yourself'," Juliette's finished. Jazz mumbled something incoherently into her pillow.
Jazz stuck her head out, inspecting her watch which lay on her bedside table. Once she had seen the time, she gave a death glare in Juliette's direction.
"Seven thirty? Seven bl
~Day six, Monday"The early bird catches the worm!"Yes, Juliette had kept to her promise, and had woken before Jazz again. Jazz sat up instantly, shooting a death glare at Juliette's figure."Please don't make a habit of waking me with witty Good Morning lines," Jazz grumbled, practically rolling out of bed."I'm not going to make any promises. Look, I found where you keep the towels," Juliette said, her smile growing. Jazz glowered at her."Great, do you want me to call up the Famous Five, I hear they have a spot opening to make it the Famous Six!" Jazz said sarcastically. Juliette rolled her eyes."No, but do you want to Shrink to deal with those anger issues you got going on," Juliette retorted, throwing a towel straight at Jazz's face."Can we shower already, I'm not a morning person," Jazz said, stalking to the door."Clearly," Juliette mutter
~Day Seven, Tuesday"I swear this is illegal," Jazz whispered hoarsely, her eyes darting around the dark area. Juliette squinted toward her prize"I'm pretty sure a night market isn't illegal Jazz," Juliette admonished, her fingers fondling the silky fabric of the blue dress."We will be on the run, criminals, culprits, delinquents!" Jazz exclaimed, her eyes wide and worried. Juliette rolled her eyes, grabbing the hanger of the dress and holding against her body.Juliette had managed to convince Jazz to sneak out to an all night market at 2:30 in the morning. She needed a dress for Jaxon's birthday, and a birthday present.Yes they had snuck out when they weren't supposed too. But Juliette knew she had no other time."Does this look good?" Juliette asked. The dress was just enough for h
~Day Eight, Wednesday"He's gonna...I'm gonna...he's gonna...we're gonna die!"Jazz watched Juliette curiously, as she paced the room, the warm morning sun glowing over her tan skin. Juliete seemed to be nearly ripping her blonde hair out."I mean you can smell it right?" Juliette questioned. She already knew the answer, but she had been babbling for over ten minutes now, and no one would be stopping her now."You smell like pheasant, if Chris's scent was a perfume," Jazz mused, a slight smile on her face. Juliette groaned and flopped back on her bed."I hate my life!""No need to be over dramatic, what happened anyway?" Jazz asked. Juliette flushed at the graphic memory."Trust me, you don't want to know. He kissed me, now his scent is all over me. How on earth do I get an Alphas scent of me!" Juliette was getting desperate."Soap and water, that's
~Part One, Day Nine, Thursday"Is it me, or do you look a little off today?"Juliette rubbed her eyes, wondering if ignoring Blaise's comment was her best option. She had barely slept last night due to the surprise stranger.She kept thinking he was going to jump back through the window and hurt her or Jazz.Now she sat in the gym for weapon handling, contemplating whether she should tell Jaxon about the intruder. She didnt want the strangers threat to fall through, making her constantly anxious and apprehensive about going back into her room alone.But tonight was the Alpha Kings birthday party, and she was his date."You reckon?"Juliette smoothed her hair down, not exactly oblivious to the fact that her hair was most likely a wild mess, and her eyes were probably red and puffy after all her rubbing. And not to ment
~Part Two, Day Nine"You are quite the clumsy one, aren't you?" Chris groaned after Juliette had stepped on his foot for the sixth time. Juliette smiled sheepishly, a blush tinting her cheeks."Dancing isn't a pactice rogues specialize in," Juliette answered as Chris carried her around the dance floor. He was a very good dancer, and put Juliette to shame instantly."True," he murmuered, his emerald eyes peering down at her. He looked a lot more content here then he did at his work; much more relaxed.The dance floor was filling up some people drunk from too much of the endless supply of wine that was being offered. Chris either hadn't been dinking, or he just had a very high tolerance to the drug, for he moved and spoke gracefully."Your name is Christian?"Chris swallowed, his eyes burning intensly into Juliette's."Correct, although I would prefer if you would con
~Part One Day Ten, FridayJuliette opened her eyes, seeing a very unfamliar roof.Where am I?She turned her head, feeling a little too warm. Jaxon was coiled around he like ivy, his head on her chest, his leg thrown over hers. She gazed down at him, admiring his perfect skin and youthful look.Light was streaming in through the windows because Jaxon hadn't closed the curtain last night. Juliette sighed, feeling the urge to pee.Jaxon shifted, blinked a few times then looked up at Juliette. He smiled weakly, his silver eyes big and luminous. He sat up and stretched, Juliette eyed his shirtless torso and ripped muscles."Sleep well?" he asked, kissing Juliette on the forehead before slipping from the bed. His voice sounded deep and husky from sleep."Surprisingly yes," Juliette mumbled. sitting up. Jaxon excused himsle
~Saturday"I see you survived the night," Juliette said, peering down at her Jazz. She glared up at Juliette, wiping excess water from around her eyes. Juliette dropped the cup on the ground, backing away."Any reason why you splashed me with water?" Jazz snapped, her green eyes ablaze. Juliette grinned, backing away till the baks of her knees hit the bed. Jazz slid from her bed, a look of retribution in her eyes."We should go for a run," Juliette suggested. She was hoping for a day where she could forget about Ace, Chris and any sassy Kings around.Jazz was about to launch at Juliette, but a knock on the door stopped her. The pair exchanged glances."Who do you think it is?" Jazz asked, pushing her wet hair back over her shoulder. Juliette suddenly felt wary, like maybe it was Ace, or even his Boss."Probably just Jaxon," Juliette suggested, walking towards the door. Telling herse
-Sunday"Rise and shine," Juliette called merrily across the room, flinging the grey curtains open so they cast a warm glow over Jaxon's sleeping body. He groaned and stuffed a pillow over his face in a way to block out the sun."Stop acting like a sassy, adolescent Vampire," Juliette grumbled, walking around the bed. Jaxon peeked out from behind the pillow so he could observe Juliette with interest."Me? Sassy?" he asked, acting appalled. Juliette stifled a laugh at his comical expression."Indeed, and I think you know you are," Juliette stated, coming to a halt at the foot of the bed. Jaxon buried his face in the pillow, showing Juliette he wasn't keen on getting out of bed.Juliette bit her lip, and ripped the sheets straight off the bed, leaving a half naked Jaxon groaning on the bed."Get up," Juliette said sternly, smacking his shin lightly. He sat up, and look directly at Jul
~SierraI lay my gun on the table in front of me.He stands in front of me, his arms folded. Maya kneels beside him, looking down. The way she fiddled with her fingers showed she was anxious."We should move in now, their King is in critical condition. They have no chance now," he said softly, sweeping a hand through his ginger hair. I saw Maya wince."Our plan is going perfectly. Everyone suspects Juliette is Delani's killer," I say. He nodded, a slim smile lighting up his features."Perfect, and Ace?""The resistance poses no threat to us. We just need to worry about Jaxon and his pack," I state."But Jaxon is nearly dead?"
~Day Sixteen, MondayJuliette stretched out in bed, feeling oddly warm and sated. She sat up, looking at the wall of Jaxon's room. She looked to her right, and gasped as she saw a half naked Ace lying there, watching her."You finally woke," he said softly, a slight smile playing on his lips. Juliette blinked in confusion, sliding away from him slowly."Ace? What are you doing?" Juliette asked nervously, trying not to let her eyes drift from his. He tilted his head, looking equally confused."I was watching you sleep," he muttered, trying to move closer. Juliette squeaked and went to jump off the bed, but Ace's hand shot out and grabbed her arm, stopping her."Where's Jaxon?" Juliette questioned, looking around while trying to shake from Ace's grip. They were in his room, in his bed, but he wasn't there."He left," Ace said softly, pulling Juliette closer. Bl
Part Two, Sunday"Jaxon..." Juliette warned, her eyes narrowing back at the Kings dispassionate gaze."I will take care of this, while you stay here," he proclaimed, raising a eyebrow. Juliette snorted in dismissal. He didn't know where the resistance was, nor what he was dealing with. He needed to step back and let her or Ace take care of it."Jaxon seriously," Juliette huffed, as Jaxon blocked the door with his massive torso. He stared down at her, completely adamant."You will stay in this room, sleep and let me worry about Blaise. He is my responsibility, considering I may be his possible Alpha," Jaxon exclaimed. Juliette folded her arms. She much preferred to fight for herself, not have someone do it for her."Don't think you can keep me locked in here like your goddamn Princess
-Part One, SundayJuliette flipped the towel over her arm, as she entered the girls shower room. Due to the fact that she had slept with Jazz back in there old room, she had to use the public showers; not a favourite.Feigning innocence last night was easier then she thought. Sure she wasn't supposed to let Jaxon mark her, unless she wanted him dead. But she wanted to kill Ace like he killed Chris. He had bailed straight after his interruption.Juliette had decided that it would be easier if she slept back with Jazz for he night. Jaxon wasn't to keen on that idea, but allowed it once he decided that Juliette knew nohing, and that he needed to think.Juliette waded through the steam in the room, seeing on one figure in the bathroom. Bella.She was brushing her curly blonde hair, staring a herself in the mirror. She had just a towel wrapped around her body.Jul
~SaturdayAce walked slowly, deliberately. He crossed the main hall at a good pace, his eyes trained on the massive chair at the top of the stairs.As he made it close enough, he knelt down on one knee, which pressed against the cold marble."Sir."He bowed his head, staring down at his shoe. Silence stretched across the room."You have failed me Ace," a voice said from behind the chair, embroidered with gold and red. Ace swallowed, but didn't move a single limb.More silence."Juliette Kerson was placed in situation of danger due to your lack of guidance," they spoke again. Ace suddenly had a flash back to the day Maya tried to kill Juliette."Have you secured Maya Green's position?" His boss asked, his voice low and dea
-Day Fifteen, FridayA jolting pain in Juliette's side woke her from her slumber. She groaned and rolled over, her hand finding her side.It was wet. Juliette screamed and retracted her hand, looking to see it covered in her own blood. Juliette looked down, and screamed again when she saw she was stark naked.And in the middle of the woods.She looked around, her eyes searching for something, anything. This was surely a dream, and her dreams always had some moral.Suddenly Ace stumbled into view, his black eyes wide with fury. He looked at Juliette, who backed away till her back was against a tree. Juliette tried covering herself, afraid of him seeing her naked. He was shirtless, his torso covered in scratches and cuts, blue blood weeping from the wounds."Kill him Juliette, show me that our love is forever," Ace muttered, his head lolling to the side. He poi
~Day Fourteen, ThrusdayJuliette sat up, gasping for air.Where am I?She looked frantically around the room, to see she was no longer alone in the cabin of the resistance, but in her and Jazz's old room. She sighed and slipped from bed, her feet finding the familar carpet."It was only a dream..." Juliette muttered softly to herself. Skinwalkers, she had never heard of them. She looked down to see she wasn't in her uniform, but a pair of black trackpants, and a blue shirt she had never seen in her life."What the-"Juliette looked up, and screamed as she saw Ace, sitting on the edge of Jazz's old bed, his eyes on Juliette. She sighed and held her hand to her chest, feeling her rapid heart."You scared me," Juliette snapped, glaring at him. Ace chuckled."You look better this morning, the cut on your side has healed w
-Day Thirteen, Wednesday"Stay in bed with me..." Jaxon groaned, grabbing Juliette's hips. She laughed and fell back into the bed. She was in a good mood from not having a single nightmare last night. And Jaxon seemed to be in a pretty good mood as well."I have class," Juliette giggled, rolling over so she was on top of Jaxon. He watched her with amusment, his silver eyes alight with excitment."And the Alpha King shouldn't be the one keeping me from school," Juliette stated, tracing her finger down Jaxon's strong jawline. He was really handsome, even in the morning. His fluffy black hair, as dark as obsidian, his silver eyes, so bright and luminious."Hmm true, I do want you to make it into the pack," Jaxon said softly. Juliette gazed at him for a moment, before smiling gently. Her finger trailed down the base of his neck, and to the neck line of his shirt."Why, so you can keep an eye on me?" Jul
~Day Twelve, TuesdayJuliette groaned. It was another dream, it had to be. Although she wasn't in her original dorm room, but in Jaxon's room.She was standing at the foot of the bed, staring at the covers. Everything seemed hazy, and she had a sudden urge to pull the covers away. Instead, she she tried all the doors, to find them locked.She glared at the covers. Suddenly they moved and she screamed a little, backing up till her back ht the door. Jaxon pushed the covers back. He was alive in this dream."Juliette, what are you doing?" he asked, tilting his head to the side. His silver eyes were glazed over. Relief flooded through Juliette."I thought I was having a dream..." she explained, advancing on Jaxon."Where did you get that knife baby?" he asked, his voice oddly monotone. Then she realized he wasn't looking at her, but behind her.Juliette turned slowly, t
