"Home, he smelt like home" ........................................................................... Aegis was rejected by her mate, the Alpha of her pack. He wanted her sister instead. Ever since then her life seemed to go downhill. That was until she meets the King of all wolves,Damien Price, and feels an unexplainable connection to him that she realized her past might just hold the key to an ancient prophecy threatening to destroy the werewolf world. But first she had a mission_ she would bring karma to all who contributed to her destruction. Ten years later she stood in the same pack, the very one that rejected and destroyed her and hatred boiled from the depth of my soul. She would make them pay.
View MoreAegis's P.O.VShe cut their neck off right at the jugular vein. And from the way she was looking at me, I was next. How the hell did Brianna talk me into this? "You need to be seen,” she'd said, smiling so sweetly. I took in a spoon of the lasagna in front of me. “You’re our Alpha, Aegis. You’ve got power and presence but no one’s going to know that if you continue hiding in the shadows. Let the world see the Poison Rose. Let them see why they should fear you.”I took in another spoon. That sounded reasonable, it was making sense until she added, “Besides, there’ll be handsome Alphas at the ball. Maybe even the King himself.” I rolled my eyes so hard it hurt. I'm not searching for a man, a mate, or any of it. What I wanted was to be left alone. But Brianna was like a storm, relentless, unavoidable and absolutely impossible to fight without getting drenched. I successfully avoided her the entire week but now here I was sitting at the dining table, cornered. How she expected my
AEGIS'S P.O.VSta. Stah. Stah. Stahh. Ztahh. Ztahh. Ztahhg.I snapped the rubber haur band against my wrist over and over again. Each time harder and harder. I need to feel. I need to feel. My mind echoed " Feel, Feel," with each sharp sting echoing through the silence of my room. It wasn’t enough. I snapped it again. And again. Each time, the elastic dug deeper into my skin and left welts that darkened and split. My breathing was steady, but my thoughts were mumbled and chaos. Had I become a monster? So much of a monster that Zach thought I’d kill his mate? I stared at the bruises forming on my wrist, the faint line of blood seeping through one of the deeper cuts. My mind replayed the moment over and over. Zach’s wild eyes. His stance. His words: He thought I would hurt her. He thought I was ruthless enough to kill his mate. Snap. The band dug deeper.A knock on my door pulled me out. “Come in.” Noah stepped inside holding a stack of papers. He glanced at me then at my wrist. He kn
"Get Up Now."The most high-pitched and panicked scream I've ever heard ripped through the house, I bolted from my office ready to fight. I raced into the kitchen, expecting to see blood, someone dying, an intruder---anything but the three men frozen in place jointly staring at a spot on the floor.Ladies and Gentlemen, My Council."What is it?” I demanded. Noah, Zach, and Emery turned to me with wide eyes pale faces. Noah pointed a shaking finger toward the counter. “A spider,” he whispered. I stared at them. Three of the strongest wolves I’d ever met and personally trained, standing like children in front of a bug. A Beta, Gamma and Delta to be exact.“A spider?” I repeated incredulously. “It’s huge,” Zach said defensively, as if that excused the situation. I looked at the tiny creature crawling across the countertop. “You want me to kill it?”“Please,” Emery begged. I crossed my arms. “None of you can do it?” They all shook their heads. “You’re supposed to be warriors,” I deadpan.
AEGIS'S P.O.V“Combatants, Please step forward!” the referee’s voice rang loud and clear.I stepped into the arena slowly and deliberatey. Mikeal swaggered in across me with a wide, arrogant smirk. The crowd roared excitedly amidst the tension of the environment.“This is a fight for the position of Alpha,” the referee announced. “This battle ends only in death or submission. Fighters, are you ready?” I nodded once silently. I'll do all it takes to not kill the boy. I might not like him but no one deserves to die for their foolishness. I did and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.Mikeal sneered, flexing his muscles for the crowd. A few girls shrieked and screamed but the older ones were quiet, understanding the consequence of electing Mikeal as Alpha.“I was born ready.” The referee raised his hand. “Begin!” Mikeal lunged at me without any hesitation, his fists swinging wildly. I sidestepped him easily, making him stumble forward. “Running already, huh?” he taunted, spinning back
AEGIS'S P.O.V"You're a disgrace to the Alpha title." Mikeal’s voice dripped with arrogance as he leaned back in his chair smugly.The tension in the room was unbearable for everybody but Alpha Brianna didn’t flinch."Mikeal might I remind you that this is a pack border meeting." She smiled, very calm, composed and far too collected for my liking. He wasn’t done.“A woman Alpha? You’ve tarnished the position. Don’t worry, though. I’ll clean up your mess when it’s mine. I’ll show this pack what a real Alpha looks like.”Brianna tilted her head, her voice smooth as silk. “I've been Alpha before you were even born Mikeal but please enlighten me, what exactly does that look like, Mikeal? And who are you to even judge? A man who’s already caused atrocities before even earning the title?” Mikeal's smirk faltered.“What are you talking about?”“I’m talking about the thirteen girls you’ve impregnated,” Brianna said, her tone light but lethal. “Three of them forced into abortions. One of them
Third Person's P.O. V“Where is she?” Alpha Brianna’s voice cut through the room like a blade. The tension was thick. The air around them was suddenly hard to breathe. They didn't have to think twice to know exactly who she was asking of. Noah, Zach, and Emery stood awkwardly,gazes fixed on the ground. Danny’s hands clenched at his sides with guilt written all over his face."I know I'm not talking to a bunch of deaf people. ANSWER ME." “We... we don’t know, Alpha,” Noah stammered.“You don’t know?” Brianna’s eyes blazed with fury. “The woman who you claimed saved your lives is gone, and you just let it happen?”“She told us to go,” Danny said quietly. “She gave herself up so we could escape.” “She’s our hero,” Kara murmured in a bid to try to soften the tension but it only made Brianna angrier. “A hero?” Brianna’s fist slammed onto the table hard. “A hero you left behind? You’re supposed to be wolves. Wolves protect their own!” “We couldn’t fight them,” Zach blurted out, his vo
AEGIS'S P.O.V."What does it mean?"We were preparing to receive the Alpha from a nearby packborders. We the adults were going to protect. The children to carry and bear gifts to the people. Five adults and Eight children.I turned my head to the short woman on my left. Kara. The beta's girlfriend."Pardon?"" The tatoo on your shoulder. What does it mean? I didn’t respond. I didn't know how to. How do I explain that it's not a tattoo per say, it just appeared out of nowhere one day."Come on, Aegis," Emery chimed in, his tone dripping with fake curiosity. "It’s an ugly thing. Just like you." Noah snorted."She’s not going to answer you Kara. She thinks she’s better than us." I kept walking, my eyes fixed ahead. Their words slid over me like ice. It wasn’t the first time, and it wouldn’t be the last. "Hey!" Zach stepped in front of me, successfully blocking my path. "Are you deaf or something? We’re talking to you!" I looked at him then, my expression blank. His smug grin faltered
AEGIS'S P.O.V"Duck."The punch came out of nowhere and slammed into my ribs like a sledgehammer.I staggered back gasping at the pain exploding through my side. Before I could catch my breath another hit came, this time to my jaw. My vision blurred."Focus!" a deep voice barked.I dodged the next blow slightly by instinct, ducking low and spinning away. My body moved like it knew what to do, but my mind was still catching up.Another strike. This one grazed my shoulder, sending a sharp sting down my arm."Is this all you’ve got?" the voice growled.I raised my head fists raised. The man towering over me had a cruel smirk on his face. Sweat glistened on his dark skin, and his eyes were sharp promptlg calculating my every moves."Is this how you're going to make them pay?" "You're such a weakling," he taunted, circling me.I lunged at him, throwing a punch. He caught my wrist mid-air and twisted inhumanly, forcing me to my knees. Pain shot through me, but I didn’t scream."Pathetic," h
"What the hell? She has no injuries." I opened my eyes to the sound of muffled voices. Another Hospital. The sharp scent of antiseptic hit me first. The room was cold, too bright. White walls. White sheets. White everything. I blinked slowly, my chest rising and falling. Alive. Somehow, I was alive. "How is this even possible?" A male voice. "She should be dead," said another, softer voice. A woman this time. I turned my head. Two doctors stood near the door arguing amongst themselves. They hadn’t noticed me yet. "No wounds. No burns. It doesn’t make sense," the woman whispered. "That's just not possible ," the man muttered. I sat up, the sheets falling off my chest. My sudden movement made them freeze. Their heads snapped toward me. "She’s awake," the woman said, her voice trembling. " I can see that," the man bit out in frustration.He stepped closer cautiously. "Miss...can you hear me?" "Where am I?" My voice was hoarse. It didn’t even sound like me."You’re safe," he said

She would be nowhere to be found.You would be alone.There was nothing wrong with the party except for one giant fact-- it was a PARTY. The black speakers in the corner blasted a pop song I had never heard before leaving in it wake a reverberating thud. The stench of alcohol and musty scent horny teenagers was thickened the air . A tall lanky boy stood on a table , shirtless and attempting to do a remake of magic mike except this version by himself. It was horrible but his audience of drunk teenage fan girls didn’t seem to mind, their delightful shrieks going on and beyond to give me an headache. And Vela was still nowhere to be found.And here I was, the birthday girl, standing right in the middle of the chaos in my obviously borrowed pink dress, sporting a cup of chocolate and a tense smile.
