Demi's pov I wiped my hand over my face, my palm catching at a wet spot on my cheek making me realize that I had been crying. I hurriedly my palm over my cheeks again to do away with any trace of me crying as I didn't want Eros to get worried and drill me with questions. You should get going, Harlyn advised, they'd be looking for you all over the place now... And she was right because the moment I stepped out and ventured into the space retracing my steps, my eyes caught a distressed Eros with Haris by his side frantically conversing with the shop attendant and I could see a security guard next to them. I hurried my steps wanting to reach them quickly to avoid a dramatic scene and at that moment, Eros looked towards my direction and I gave a small smile enjoying How relief took over his features, his tenseness vanishing and being replaced with tenderness as he immediately began to saunter towards me dragging Haris along. "Are you alright?" He placed his free hand on my shoulder
Demi's pov I murmured slightly at the light tap on my shoulders and went I felt the sparks, I opened my eyes slowly to see Eros near me trying to get me to wake. "Are we there yet?" I moved my hand rubbing my eyes with my fingers in circular motions to clear my drowsiness. "Yes, Bambi." He smiled, "Do you want to stay in the car for a while and rest?" I nodded immediately, glad that he asked and he stepped down after a quick "I will be back." while he was away I slept some more trying to regain my strength as I was exhausted. ____ By the time Eros was back, I was well rested and Haris was awake as well. He got the door for us, Haris jumped down excitedly and Eros put out his hand, I placed mine in his and he let me down from the car slowly. "Where is this place?" I asked looking around and marveling at the huge building before me. "Take a guess." I looked at the building to see beautiful carved-out letters attached to the top that read out the word
Demi's pov I eyed Eros shyly as he worked on his plate, my tongue tied, twisting in shame as I contemplated if to ask him for help or not knowing that we were in public and I didn't want to embarrass him. "Here you go, Bambi." He let out a sigh with a small smile gracing his lips and he picked up his dish switching it with mine, "Eat up." I looked down at the plate, a dainty grin forming on my face as I realized that all that cutting wasn't for his comfort but for mine, as he had cut the tender meat into tiny pieces as well as the broccolini. I swallowed lightly picking up my spoon, muttering a thank you before I began to eat slowly. "What's your favorite color?" He asked suddenly as we ate, "What do you like doing? Tell me about you." I dropped my spoon gently and cleared my throat not knowing what to tell him as I hated talking about myself and I didn't even know what my favorite colour was. The only thing I knew was that I loved Haris and I hated pain as I had been accustom
Anya's pov I wiped the sweat off my brow, dismissing the new warriors that had been training and my gaze trailed on them as they marched off the field in an orderly manner as I had instructed. I congratulated myself for a job well done. Eros would be so impressed when he sees their performances as well as the new strengths they had recognized within themselves that would prove to further strengthening the pack's army. Today had really been successful, I did well with the warriors as well as my plans in ruining the gifts that Eros had gotten for his bitch of a mate. I climbed up the steps gingerly, feeling as happy as I felt in the morning when I had received the news that all had gone well. The attendants accompanying the goods were injured and I made sure rumours were spread for people to talk about how this had never happened which would cast doubts and self blame in the heart of Demi when she hears. A maid had whispered about her crying which proved that my
Anya's pov I burned down her house only for Eros to move her in. I ruined the surprise for her only for him to take her on a date to the human world and now news about them was everywhere like she was his beloved. I couldn't even think of any more plans than killing her but if I did, I would be found out and Eros would kill me. I was planning on winning him over as well as his family so they would all be in support of him making me Luna and so I had to thread with caution as I had been doing always. My phone rang across the room and immediately went to get it as it was the special ringtone I had set specifically for when Eros calls me that rang out. "Hello E." I picked up immediately. "Anya." He responded, "You must have seen the tabloids, contact our public relations team, reputation management team as well our legal team. I want those posts taken down and wiped off immediately! In as much as it gladdens me to show off my Bambi, I would love to protect her for now as she isn't
Demi's pov I found myself in the field again, this time my white gown was a full-length with a sash tied around my waist and its sleeves having pretty bows at the end. A crown of flowers was placed on my head by beautiful birds waving their feathers gracefully. The wind blew gently and I wished to see my reflection. At that wish, my feet directed me to where I could hear running water and I followed the direction humming to myself and swinging my hands. I was happy. I had my full arms back and I swung them aggressively trying to get the feel of them again because I had a terrible dream where my hand was cut off. I reached the stream, its water sparkling bright against the rays of the glorious sun and I bent a bit at the bank, crouching over the grass and planting my hands on the ground. I peered into the stream to see my reflection and I was wowed by what I saw. Unlike in my dream, I had perfect unscarred, and unblemished skin. My fa
Demi's pov A familiar scent awakened my senses, a scent that had had me enthralled from the moment I first perceived it. A scent that has been so engraved in my world these past few days and now it was so near me like the person that bore that scent was directly laying by my side. I tried to move my hand but I couldn't as it was held down by another and I opened my eyes, a soft gasp leaving my lips as I beheld the sight before me. My face was almost buried directly in Eros's chest, which heaved slightly in a up and down motion as his soft snores filtered through my hearing. His arm was wrapped around me, drawing me close while his bicep cradled my head gently and I looked down to see that his other hand was what held mine down. His beautiful big manly hand closed over my frail scarred one, his fingers, lean and clean were interlocked with my ugly ones and I wanted to pull away immediately as the sight called to me telling me that my hand didn't belong with
Demi's pov We could only proceed for our activities of the day when Eros finally let go of me but not before making me promise that I will let him hold me later. We had breakfast after I cleaned up and helped Haris freshen up as well while my mate proceeded to prepare for his day. When he was ready he came to my room to pick Haris and I up and we both followed him to where he was headed. Even without him mentioning it, I knew he wanted to take me to where his attention was needed at the warrior academy and I knew most of the pack members would be there. My anxiety levels were skyrocketing when we had neared the place and all eyes were on us. I had walked quietly behind Eros with Haris by my side. No one dared say anything but I could see their malicious stares as their gaze traveled to me after greeting Eros. Some of them had their noses wrinkled and when our gazes met they immediately turned not hiding their looks of disgust. I didn't let it bother me a
