Lydia's POV As soon as the closing bell rang, I ran outside class in search of Daniel. We were supposed to go over to Maya's to check on her. I texted Daniel as I made my way to his locker to find him. He wasn't there nor was he returning my texts. Did he forget about our mission? I wondered as I glanced around trying to find him. Maybe he was waiting for me at the parking lot. I walked out of the school building and immediately found Daniel walking beside Juliet towards his car. I frowned at the odd scene. They seemed to be invested in the conversation they were having. Without wasting any more time, I made my way towards them, annoyed by how cozy they both seemed. "Hey," I got in between them, glaring at Juliet. "Hey," Daniel answered and I glanced at him with narrowed eyes. "Didn't realize that you are now friends with… her." I uttered in a condescending tone. He averted his gaze like I had caught him doing something wrong which in retrospect, I had. "Um, no, we are
Daniel's POV I stepped into the small cell where Maya was and put on the light.The room immediately lit up and Maya who was seated in the corner looked up at me with disdain in her eyes."Glad to see you too" I quipped , leaning against the door frame, my hand folded around my chest."I'm not." She spat instantly, still glaring at me like she was staring at the devil himself.She looked tired and stressed out and her eyes were puffy and covered with dark circles."So stubborn."I quipped, shaking my head in amusement.I walked towards her andI stopped in front of her, a smile appearing on my face."What do you want?" She asked, her tone aggressive and filled with irritation."Just came to see how you are doing. Whitney tells me you've been yelling and refusing to eat.""And why do you care?" She askef."I care because you belong to me and I don't want you sickly before I even get the chance to mark you.""Why are you doing this, Daniel? What did I ever do to you? How could you betr
Micah's povI tried to wriggle myself out of the handcuffs holding me in place but everything I tried was completely useless.It was like I was glued to the pool rather than handcuffed to it. It didn't help that the room was pitch black.I had woken up just an hour ago and had found myself in here, memories of what happened had been instant too. It was all Juliet.What I didn't understand was why?Why bring me here?I was going to kill her once I got out of these impossible restraints.The whole thing didn't make sense to me.Why abduct me and for what purpose?I had no idea what she was planning but I was going to kill her if she tried anything funny.Which reminded me! Why did she have Maya's phone?I suddenly thought, realizing that she'd been the one that texted me and not Maya.Something fishy was going on but what?I tried again to get out of the lock, unlocking my Alpha super strength this time but it was useless.I couldn't get it to break. The cuffs were laced with wolfbane.
Lydia's povI woke up to the sound of my alarm clock ringing or at least that's what I thought until I picked up my phone from a near by the dresser and saw that it was a phone call from Aunt Gomez.Quickly, I stood up and picked up."Good morning, Aunt Gomez… I've been trying to reach you."I said as soon as I picked up the call."Good morning, Lydia. Have you seen Maya recently?" She asked in a calm voice that scared me more than it should have."Um, not really. I was actually at your house just yesterday to find her but you weren't there. Did something happen?" I asked, shooting from my bed in worry."No, no. Everything is okay. One last question, did she tell you she was going anywhere the last time you saw her?""Not really…what's going on, Miss Gomez? Is everything alright.""I'll call you back, Lydia."She said and immediately hang up.I stared down at my phone in confusion.Did something happen to Maya?I wondered silently, my heart rate increasing in an unhealthy rhythm.I ne
Lydia's pov"The body when it transforms becomes a different anatomy and a new set of hormones are created to accommodate new organs…" the anatomy teacher said.I was doing my best to listen but all I could think about was what Aunt Gomez had said.If Maya was missing, why weren't we looking for her?I knew Maya had some secret blood line top secret thing but was it so important that they didn't want the pack police involved?I was scared out of my mind and unable to concentrate on anything. The bell for recess rang and I immediately stood up from my chair and ran out of the classI took a deep breath as soon as I was outside and made my way to Daniel's class.I entered his class and found him speaking to Alicia, one of Juliet's minions.She seemed unusually friendly with him with her hands on her shoulders, laughing at something he said.I frowned at the scene before me.What was this new found relationship Daniel had with Juliet and her little helpers?It didn't make sense to me.I
Lydia's povI stopped just a few miles away from the northern woods watching as Juliet and Daniel got down from the car.Daniel whispered something to her before turning around and walking into the woods.I parked my bike behind a large boulder and began to walk closer and closer to them, making sure to hide behind the boulders and trees as I did.I got close enough to them and stayed crouched on the floor, watching Juliet who was sitting on the hood of the car.Daniel was still in the woods doing goddess knows what.What on earth he was doing in there, I wasn't sure but I was going to find out…I just needed to get rid of Juliet so I could follow him. Why wasn't she following him? Was she some kind of look out for him? That would explain why they were always together.I stayed crouched in my position, waiting to hear anything that could give me a clue on why they were here.After several minutes of waiting in silence, I saw a silhouette emerging from the woods.My eyes widened as the
Lydia's POV "Well, I guess I should probably go straight to the point," My mother said, tucking her hair behind her ears.You think?!"So, a Sir Silas from another pack sent me this letter, saying that he is interested in marrying you and that he's willing to buy this entire house from the landlord if you accept."I stared blankly at my mother."I have no idea who a sir Silas is, mom.""You don't have to deny it anymore simply because he's older. I know he's my age and I know he's the Alpha's friend."My mother said as if she'd just dropped a bombshell.All I could think about was how confused I was.I didn't know a sir Silas from another pack but I couldn't say that because then I'd have to take her to the Alpha and thank him who is in no way involved in this."I also think you should accept his hand.""What?"I stood up abruptly from where I sat, sure I had heard wrong."I know it's sudden but it's for the best. You could literally be affiliated with the Alpha just by marrying him.
Lydia's POV The man at the door looked exactly like Maya but with shorter hair and two or three decades older."Tell me everything," he immediately said to Aunt Gomez who'd not had the time to welcome him."Welcome, Angel. " She said and opened the door wider.Angel, who I assumed was Maya's father marched past me, towards the living room.Aunt Gomez sighed and walked me out."Is that Maya's dad?" I asked as soon as we got to the driveway."Yeah. " Aunt Gomez answered."Can I help?* I asked."No, Lydia. Thank you for offering but we'll handle this. I just need you to be carefu. I'll get back to you on the letter."I wanted to argue but Aunt Gomez didn't look like she was ready to listen to anything I had to say."Alright," I nodded and waved her goodbye.I got my bike from where I had parked it and rode home.On my way home. All I could think about was Maya and the letter I had gotten.I needed to be on the lookout.I just hoped I didn't get captured before Maya was found.I got ho
