"It could be worse."
Juliette looked at her mother with a harsh glare, before turning her head away.
This whole week she's been ignoring her.
She curled my legs up onto the couch, propping her chin on her hand, ignoring the loud TV in front of her.
Suddenly a sharp knock at the door sounded through the room, taking both Juliette and her Mum by surprise.
She got up, nervously opening it slightly.
Juliette couldn't hear or see who her mother was talking to through the crack in the door, but when she opened it, she sighed.
A young lady walked through the door, her high heels adding inches to her height.
She held a ring binder on her arm, her brown hair pulled up into a bun.
She looked incredibly superior, making Juliette fix her brunette curls before standing.
"Juliette Kerson, my name is Sarah, I'm here to congratulate you," she said coldly, glancing over Juliette's figure.
Dread spilled over her.
"For some reason your tests came back perfect, you hold no diseases, so I'm here to withhold the next test," she said, walking swiftly past Juliette before sitting down on the couch, crossing her legs like a real lady.
Sighing Juliette sat by Sarah, clamping her hands on her lap.
"This is to assess your suitability for the pack," she said, opening her purple ring binder.
"Well I don't want to be in it, is that suitable enough for you," she growled, making Sarah sigh and shake her head.
"Anyway, I'm just going to ask a few questions, that you must answer honestly," she said, Juliette's rolling her eyes with a nod.
"Do you play any sports, or participate in any physical activities?" she asked, pulling a pen from her breast pocket.
"I swim and run often," Juliette said, looking at her nails.
She scribbled her answer onto some paper within the binder.
"What is your favorite subject it school?"
"Probably English, maybe PE."
"What is your favorite past time?"
"You mean hobby?"
"Yes."
"Reading, and I love swimming."
"Do you have any relationship in the rouge village?"
"What? That's personal."
"Please answer Juliette."
She sighed.
"No, but my boyfriend got into the Nightmare pack last year."
She scribbled furiously.
"Have you any allergies?"
"Just hay fever."
"Do you snore?"
"Wait what?"
"Do you snore?"
"What kind of question his that?"
"A question, please answer."
"No I don't, why?"
"Accommodation reasons, I think that's it, thank you for your cooperation Miss Kerson."
Juliette looked up at her in disbelief, a little surprised that that was all that was needed.
After saying a curt goodbye, and wishing Juliette luck rather viciously, Sarah left.
~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
