Welp...we're here
His hands trembled as he reached for the knob, slowly twisting it unlocked. He pushed the door back, peeping inside like he’d done as a child when he wanted to sleep between his parents. She was sleeping, soundly…those soft breaths she took had his erratic breathing calming and mirroring hers. He s
With shaky hands, she wiped the salty water off her cheeks, but more just kept coming. “What d-do you want from me now? Just…J-Just leave me alone, please…” Jake’s free hand settled against the door as well, adjacent to the other…caging her, so she couldn’t escape him. “No,” He breathed out. “I won
Delilah couldn’t sleep, she was too scared to close her eyes while laying in the same bed as him. The room was only lit by the lamp on the bedside table, but it’s light illuminated enough. The double door closet in front of the bed was filled with clothes; clothes that belonged to a woman and not a
Jake left for the office today, and while he did so, Delilah remained in the house, wholly unimpressed. When he told her he’d be leaving, she thought this would be an opportunity to help her escape, but there were five pack members outside, sabotaging that escape. Every time she peeped out the win
‘I know I said I’d be strong, but I can no longer feign strength, not even for Jake. I’ve tried to be a good mother to him, but all I’ve been doing is making everything worse for him. I’ve proven to be useless over and over again, scarring him. I don’t feel like his mother, I feel like his burden.
“Did she really kill herself?” Jake marched over to where Delilah sat, hauling the book out of her hand and throwing it across the room. “No, I killed her! Why’d you read it? Why’d you touch my f*cking stuff?!” “I…I was curious and even after reading it all, I still am. I feel so sad for her, I wa
Delilah let go of him, stepping back and away. “It’s late, I’m going upstairs as you ordered.” She turned to walk away, but his feeble attempt at holding her back, stopped her from walking away. “Wait…I-I have something to say.” She turned back to face him, those brown eyes staring at him with litt
The omega came with breakfast a little after that. The table was full, and yet, he was the only one sitting in front of all the god damn food. Delilah didn’t come back down since she went up, it seemed her hate for him had multiplied even though he actually did nothing this time. Standing to his fe
Jeo walked back to the shabby cabins where his men were. He was angry…at her and at himself. He regretted coming here now more than ever. It was all for nothing. She carried too much vengeance, the hate she had for him could never amount to love.A tired sigh left his lips as he shoved one of the ca
“You know, I was happy about coming here…I thought I could probably make something work, but with how much you seem to hate me for crimes I didn’t commit, nothing will ever work out between us. And I’ll just f*cking accept it.” River shifted her gaze away from him as he left, making sure to aggres
When the door creaked open, and he saw her leaning against the desk in the center of the room…that was when he breathed out…almost gasping at her beauty. She was wearing a bodysuit, one that covered but also showcased all of her. It was etched to her body, showcasing its every curve and the curves
Jeo came to a sudden stop in the woods he’d intruded. He could smell stale blood…stale werewolf blood. He could also smell the venomoons that resided behind the invisible lines that marked their borders. He couldn’t see it, but somehow, he could tell exactly where their lands started, and he didn’
Before Quinn could respond, Jeo quickly stood to his feet, holding a hand up. “I’ll do it…! I’ll do it…” His impatient yell and then whispered words gained him everybody’s attention, their eyes swung his way, all summing him up as though he’d gone mad. “Did you really just volunteer? Do you want
She took a seat in the last empty chair around the table without Zayd even having to tell her to. “I thought this alliance was about unity and peace, but there is no peace or unity when my people have to be on constant lookout for your next strike. We’ve withstood enough of this, if another mutt wal
Two weeks after the meet and greet, an official meeting was called and surprisingly, Jeo was to attend. He wasn’t exactly sure why Zayd wanted him to be present, he’d never been a part of something like this before…considering the size and the rank of his pack… He was sure this had something to do
And then she trudged through the door. Her words hurt, but Jeo followed her anyway, stopping when they made it to a door opposite to the one they just walked through. She sighed, turning to face him with eyes nonchalant and fierce; kind of like Quinn’s. “May I ask why you’re following me?” Jeo cl
She didn’t look at him for long, but he could see the recognition in those mesmerizing eyes. She knew who he was…and yet she…she ignored him? Why? And this aura she possessed…what was it? She wasn’t a werewolf…but her presence was strong. If she was the River Adams Zayd spoke of, then what exactly
