Roxanne's POV: I stood in the clinic corridor, leaning against a wall with a wide smile across my face, thinking about what had happened last night. It wasn't much touching but more kissing. I knew he was holding himself back, and I was happy that he was because our mating would be special and worth it when we do mate. The only sad thing was that he refused to drink from me, no matter what I said. He was acting as if I was going to die if he did feed from me when he had already drunk my blood back at his mansion. "That's a really pretty smile you have on there, Roxy," Angelina said as she approached me. "Angie," I whispered, and then stood upright and looked at her seriously as I tried to compose myself. "It's good to see that you are already taking the initiative to meet the other healers and doctors of this clinic," I said once she was standing in front of me. She looked at me from head to toe, then chuckled softly, making me feel uncomfortable. Something about her made me ve
Garren's POV: "Easy," I whispered in a husky, cracked voice and threw my head back as she sucked the tip of my cock with her warm tongue. How did we even end up in this situation? It was entirely her fault for getting aroused while talking to us on the training field. The way she looked at me and how she reacted made it so fucking obvious that she was thinking about me, and I was very affected by that. Blowing off steam by training was a good idea to keep my mind off of sex. But then she was right in front of me, and all I could think about was taking her. When the bastard approached us and commented on how the training field wasn't a mating ground, I snapped. I grabbed Roxanne, putting her on my shoulder, and walked with her to my room. Immediately, she was let down. I completely took off my clothes in front of her, startling her. "If you want, you can back out now. But if you don't want to go but make me feel good, then completely take off your clothes and get down on your knee
Garren's POV: Ian looked at everyone in his office, as if telling us to back away if we weren't ready to go through with everything. Roxanne held my hand, and she would smile here and there to keep me calm. I was very nervous, and there was no way of hiding it because the planned day was finally here. "Is Felix joining us?" Neo asked seriously. "I don't..." Amelia cut her words short when a portal appeared right in front of us. Lee looked at us without stepping out, then turned with his hand waving. "Come along, Felix. Whitney and the rest are waiting," he said as Ian wasted no time walking into the portal. The rest soon followed, and the only ones left standing were Roxanne and me. "We'll be fine. Let's go," she whispered. I nodded, then walked into the portal with her. When we stepped out of the portal, we found Ian giving Whitney a murderous look. "Why are you here?" he asked her coldly. "I'm here to stand next to the Alpha Queen I serve," she answered simply. "What a
Ian's POV: I was breathing heavily, and my whole body was covered in blood. Aurora and Roxanne were standing next to me with bloody hands and claw marks on their backs, while the rest were in their wolf form behind us. The shield created between us and the coven elders by their witch was too strong to penetrate, at least for us. But for Roman, it was something else. He easily walked past it and attacked the elders who fought him with everything they had. Something that shocked us even more was what we were noticing. The elders were getting weak one by one each time they sunk their fangs into his skin; it's as if his blood was poisoned. Their movement was getting slower, and a dark trail of blood was coming from their nose. As for the witch, she stood doing nothing. Something was terribly wrong. I looked at my left side and noticed how Chase was still trying to heal Lee, who was badly injured and knocked out on the ground. His hands were pressed on each side of his head as waves
Roman's POV: "What have you done?" Garren asked in disbelief. I stood, staring at the window as tears ran down my cheeks. I had no idea how to stop what I was feeling, and the pain was only getting stronger. "What have you done?" he yelled angrily as I shut him out, completely putting him to sleep. How could he understand what I was feeling? My skin was crawling, and my heart felt like something was piercing through it. I hated being alone, as usual, and I felt scared losing my mate, but it was the right decision to make. Everything Garren went through was nothing compared to what I went through. All the pain, anger, and hate he felt were usually borne by me. Whenever he went through a phase of negative emotions, it didn't take long for him to pull back up. In a year, he was already recovering, not knowing that I was the one bearing all that by myself. A part of me was screaming out for help as I bled, yet he couldn't see that. I shut him off because I knew if he could share w
Roxanne's POV: I sat on the floor in the clinic, sobbing, while my mother's arms were wrapped around me. Angelina was rushing back and forth, attending to all who were injured, despite them already being healed. "Mother, he let me go," I whispered in a cracked voice. "I know, honey, and I'm sure it is for the best. At least we all came out alive," she answered as I stopped crying and looked at her coldly. "Sweetie, I know you don't think that way, but with time you will. Roman was very different from Garren; that man was a monster," she said as I stood up and ran outside the clinic, grabbing Uncle Lee's hand as he was walking to the pack house. He looked at me seriously, then sighed sadly and shook his head. "That witch's ability and level are way above me and Lexi. Even if we were to try and trace where they are, it wouldn't work. If she's going to use an invisibility shield on the territory, then no one could ever find the place besides those who are part of the coven and vamp
Garren's POV: "You have ruined me," was all I could whisper over and over again. I had no strength to move as everything that had happened played through my mind. I couldn't believe he would easily kill the coven just like that, but what was so painful was how he had hurt Roxanne. I could feel how he was hurt too in the process, but couldn't understand why he would shut her out. The tears he had shed came from the pain he felt of letting our mate go and fear. Why would he choose to walk away from her instead of kneeling down and begging her for forgiveness? The deed was already done, and it was obvious she wanted nothing to do with us anymore. I was furious at him for hiding some things from me and for what he had done in the dark. "Let it go, Garren. Her being with us will only bring her pain, and it's already done," he whispered as I clenched my hands into fists. "Shut the fuck up, you bastard!" I yelled loudly, startling the witch who stood at the corner of the room, avoidin
Kyle's POV: "Was that really a wise decision to make?" Neo asked when I sat down on the couch in my father's office. "Are you calling me dumb, uncle?" I asked seriously. "No, he isn't. You are the soon-to-be Alpha, that we understand. But if what I have heard actually did happen, then it's not a good decision to have him in our pack," Blade responded. I stood up and glared at him. "Son, show some respect," my father warned from behind his desk. "If you were the one in our situation, would you keep Larson away from his mate when he's still crying badly in his room?" I asked seriously. He sighed, then shifted his gaze to my father. "Please do answer me," I demanded. "No," he answered in a whisper. "My sister has gone through a lot in just a few months. As a brother, I want to protect and shield her from everything that may harm or bring her sadness. I didn't ask you to forgive him, did I? I'm only asking you to give them time, say an hour or so, to say their goodbyes," I said
