JANE'S POVFor all my dreams about him being back, I’m so tired and weary from all the trouble about Olivia that all I can do is collapse in his arms, inhaling his woodsy perfume and that orange tangy smell that always comes from the plane toffee he takes for flights. We stay in that position for about ten minutes, the world going on around us until he pulls away and tugs me towards the car. So much for picking him up, I think as he shuts the passenger door behind me and goes around to the driver’s side.He strokes the side of my face and I lean into it with a sigh. “Look at those dark circles. My poor baby”, he says, looking my face over. I shake my head as he pulls back his hand and starts the car. “It’s been absolute hell and I don’t feel any better than the moment I found out. How stupid of us to part down there in that dusky space.” I say, voicing the recurring thoughts I’ve had for the past few days.Alexis stretches a hand over and grabs my thigh. “Stop blaming yourself, babe.

NATHANIEL'S POVMy joy knew no bounds when I saw Olivia, I can't explain how we turned out this way but I was hurt, very hurt, it was very rude and obviously shameless is of me to have her kidnapped but I had no choice, she left me with none, I love her so much that I can't bear to bear without her, her resistance forced me to forcefully take her.She was once in love with me, I was her everything and now she says she's not anymore, I can't bear to see her love another man, my wolf agress as well, her scent alone drives us crazy, why should I then let her go? She would learn to love me.I smiled as I took the tray of breakfast I made to the room she was kept hostage, I knocked on the door and my heart skipped a beat when I didn't get a response, was she weak? Fainting or worse I'm trouble? I knocked loudly because she was probably asleep but got no response, I fetched out the spare key from my pocket and unlocked the door, I found her seated comfortably and staring outside the window.
JANE POVIs there a way to nestle deeper in your neck? I ask and Alexis chuckles. I think you’re already carving out a new muscle and bone over there.We’re both wrapped up in a thick blanket, half-naked and mindlessly watching a reality show on TV.I need to get up though”, Alexis says and I start to grumble. “Just to use the bathroom and grab something to munch on in the fridge.We’ve gone through the whole doughnut”, he says, smirking at me. “you wanted me to regain my appetite”, I say, stretching backward lazily to let him out of the wrap up.He shakes his head at me and saunters off to the bathroom. He comes back with a crinkled face after a pit stop to the fridge “Babe, we don’t have eggs” “Oh, I must have forgotten to get them when I grabbed your essentials.”“I also need a few other things, I’m going to stop by the store quickly”, he says and starts to head for the door “Wha..what? No, you just got back, you shouldn’t be stressing. Plus, I don’t want people to know you’re back
JANE'S POV On Friday night I went over to the crivan is a place of magical beauty that I find very fascinating.surrounded by tall trees, it’s a place where love and romance might be heightened.Always coming to visit Alexis every weekend gives me so much joy.I stepped on the floor mat as I rang the doorbell, he opened the door as I looked sternly into his dark blue shiny eyes,He looks so handsome and calm in his black cloak-like clothing.I hugged him, as I have missed him and couldn’t get enough of him.Although I was tired but I didn’t care, I wanted to see him all the time.I love how easy it is for me to let you know how I feel about you, I said softly.I know. I guessed how you were feeling, but time wasn’t on my side, whispered Alexis.I had to act fast and stop Zack from testing the virus on us.Why didn’t you tell me about your feelings at the club I asked?For once `Alexis smiled at me.And said in a hushed ton
OLIVIA'S POV THERE Was a feeling in my mind I couldn't quite define no matter how hard I tried to, it left me more confused as to why I was feeling some kind of sympathy for this man I should hate with everything, with every single bit of me. It could maybe be excitement or perhaps a tingle about the whole development, but one thing that was quite noticeable was the fact that I couldn't quite figure it out. It left me feeling so frustrated, at first all I had felt had been the total dismay I had been left in … dismay about the whole situation of things. He had abducted her and by so doing committed a crime, but at the same time I couldn't be angry that he had deprived my chance at freedom it cause at the same time while I was mad at the fact that Jane must be crazily worried that he took me it made me feel secured, safe and sound away from the grasp of my father. Of course, I was aware of the fact that no matter how ha
NATHANIEL POV ANGER I could feel every bit of it, crawling in every part of me that could bulge to its effect, my nerves, my heart, my blood stream. I could literally feel every bit of my unused energy turned into anger. I was angered about the situation and the reason was quite noticeable. I didn't see the sense in Amy lying to me all this while. I tried to close out the thought to term for what she had actually used and I was in no way going to admit that she had actually "used and dumped me." That was the term to explain the way I was feeling, the thought that I had let down my guard so down twice in a row and all I got was being bitten into half for it. It was crazy– While thinking of it, I actually had a thought back of things looking for areas I had flawed. I wasn't flawless as well, as a matter of fact I was guilty for letting her in, I could have easily stopped this whole thing when I had the chance to but I didn't. I
OLIVIA'S POV THERE was a left over if adrenaline in the air and it was the scent of his Cologne, probably mixed. The energy in the always merged and all I felt was the compelling energy it had, good thing I had my guards up and was ever ready to start it off if the need demanded me to do so. If he was expecting me to bulge to the aura he was emitting as the alpha male he was definitely worth, I was no Werewolf so controlling me or what is it that Werewolves did was out if it. It was frustrating for him and I could see it in his eyes, the anger wasn't targeted at me, I knew yet in a way I wanted to frustrate him. I guess it was to pay back for having me kidnapped or better still the way he had treated me over the last couple of months, the fire in his eye was so evocative I felt a part of it too, it was like I was a part of him. Bounded to him by every single strand of destiny but in a way, I felt myself restricting this. I
NATHANIEL POV.It was written in the stars that all of this would happen, meeting Olivia falling in love, running …but at times in life, there is always a twist .That twist—that moment when the unexpected happens and this was just that point in life.When Jane had told us everything, it was shocking to everyone that had listened.I could never have been more proud about this period in time, this time when for once in the race we had an upper hand.Her father was never going to see one coming—Wizard, Warlock or whatever he is—this was beyond what would ever happen.The moon glowed upon us full in all its glory overhead from where we stood. It was the moment we had been waiting for all this while as we trooped out.Two vans drove behind the SUV that was driven by the only one among us that had a sound mind —Alexis.To Her father her was leading me to right where he wanted, but that plan had been turned in my favor and was coming right after him."Take the right turn." Jane leaned in o
OLIVIA'S POVI reopened my eyes again, realizing I was still in this place. What exactly do they want from me? They took my son, now they are doing the same thing to me.I was tied against a chair and I tried hard to fight against the ropes used to tie me tightly. I didn't even have an inch to move my hands from the position it has been tied, the way the rope was tied so tightly.I looked around and realized the room was still the same way, dark with someone sitting at the corner. I gritted my teeth as I saw him sitting there, looking at me with an evil smirk on."So you're finally awake again." He said and I acted like I didn't even see him there. It was obvious he wasn't the one behind this. I can't believe the oh so mighty him was working for someone.It would be believable if I didn't know the kind of man he was. He must have something to gain in return. I heard the creaking sound of the door and I looked at the door.A feminine figure stepped into the room and for once I didn't w
NATHANIEL'S POVThe Good thing about everything was that it touched me in a way that I had never been touched and changed me.It changed my mindset and everything that came with it and left me with this insane mind.I paced around the room, my footsteps hard across the floor. My mind was not in the right frame to think straight. I paced back and forth the parameters of the room, Olivia had always talked about auras and I had taken it as a joke on those few occasions.But not this time…The whole aura was telling me Something was not right, I could feel it.I had taken my wolf on a run twice, pacing the wood in my half animal state but all that had done for me was to increase incessantly the pace at which my heart was going at.How could I deal with all of this?How could I deal with the madness that was roaming through my mind?I had gotten this feeling twice in my entire life: The night my father died and the night we trailed Olivia and Jane.Staring out at the vastness of the univer
OLIVIA'S POVFar away from home, in the gutter and slumps of the underworld I could feel my shoulder retracting back into my body, slowly I gained consciousness again looking round at the now empty room.One would hear my heart beat even from a mile away.I felt a sharp pain from somewhere in my head and as I reached instinctively to where I felt the pain was coming from, I noticed I was restrained.Fuck…I had done everything without thinking venturing into this place that was enough to be called a den of death, it was frustrating for me as well as other things that were roaming through my mind.Naive…that was what I felt like, a part of me wished I had told him before leaving but I knew what he would have said, he most probably would have said something about us waiting and acting later.I didn't have that much patient in me, and in a way it had resulted in this.I tried to get away from the chair but saw that my father or perhaps one of his guards had done a good job with the rope
OLIVIA'S POVI felt like dying at this point, knowing that my son was out there in the hands of a monster.Who knows what they're doing to him? Is he being tortured? What do they want? Why haven't they asked for ransom yet?This is getting scarier than ever and it's so unfortunate that I can't do anything to salvage this matter."Hey, you have to calm yourself down, take it easy on yourself, our son would return safely into our hands" Nathaniel uttered as he placed his hands on my shoulders."You seem so sure about it, heads up first we don't know who took our son, secondly we don't know where he is, thirdly the police we called haven't found him yet? And lastly we don't know what the poor lad is going through in the hands of those monsters...." I stood up, red hot in my anger and I cared less about who I was venting it out on."You have to be calm" Nathaniel was getting me pissed with his solicitous behavior and it was getting on my last nerves."Don't you make mention of that word a
NATHANIEL'S POVI had just spoken to the detectives and came down to only one conclusion: men do feel pain.A very intense pain.Whoever said real men don't feel pain needed to be rechecked cause I could feel every bit of it at this moment.It was a more devastating period for me as a father as much as it was for my mother as the term manhood doesn't signify my inability to feel this much painI never hated in my life but at that moment I felt a kind of hatred for anyone that caused me this much pain.They said hate changed the whole outlook of someone’s, it made them ruthless, it made them bitter, It made them reckless.Hate killed its host but by bit slowly consuming it's soul till nothing was left of the person but in spite of all this I couldn't bring myself to come to terms with not hating the culprit.It could consume my soul for all I know, but I didn't care, I had never let myself hate because I loved to live but when it came down to deciding if I was to lay down my life fo
NATHANIEL'S POVI don't know who it was that took Neil but he must have had something to do with someone on the inside, if not, the culprit wouldn't be able to get in.Neil's room was one of the most secured in the whole building and the fact that someone was able to come in and kidnap my son without any of those foolish guards noticing?They should all rot in the pit of torture …there was a chance I would give them a chance to speak but definitely not now.The rules were I was going to give them a chance to explain themselves on how this ever happened in front of the council and if found guilty then their mates would never hear from them again."Alpha…" Alexis was about to call out to me but I shut him up with a death glare and he gulped gently before continuing his speech. "The guards on duty are already tied up."I looked back at Olivia who was now sitting with Jane s next to her and consoling her.I wanted to assure her that Neil was fine but she wouldn't believe till she saw
OLIVIA'S POVA cold sweat drifted through me. Disaster loomed in the distance and there was nothing I could have done to avert it and now it was here, settling right here and leaving me with the most complicated feeling.It was an hour counting and despite sweating and feeling the whole heat, we had not still been able to reverse the spell.More blood trickled down the nose of another young boy. Young, lifeless eyes. As he laid in the ground dead.It wasn’t going to happen again…I pulled myself out of the seat where I had been sitting criss-crossed and headed toward the frontof the house, ignoring the itch to go in the opposite direction.I felt the need to get closer to him before I could try the magic one more time, my body buzzed with a cool sensation showing that I had more energy.My bare feet paused at the end of the walkway.I stood there for a while soaking in the pressurewhile my heart beat a mile a minute.Jane walked toward where I was in the middle of the room, When my
OLIVIA'S POVFear.I had always asked myself what my biggest fear in life would be and most of the times, I had gotten no answers to my questions.Maybe it was a way of life trying to redirect my thoughts, or perhaps I was scared of the actual truth.It was all down to fear—Fear to admit the truth that of all things I feared most in this life, making the top of the list was losing a loved one..I could take every single form of pain but definitely not that, there was no way I could deal with it and so at that moment.The moment I had opened the door to my baby room and found it empty I was consumed by a murderous type of fear.One that came nibbling right at my soul leaving nothing behind.A piercing shriek filled the room and I wondered whose was it, I was dumbfounded so I guess the scream was not from me.I stood there unable to move or say a word as it looked to me like it was all a type of dreak and I was right in the middle of it all.The sound of my voice kepr playing back iny h
