We later went to Monique's apartment, it was lovely with a nice view. It looked so girly and elegant. " Beautiful place," I said. " Thank you. I used most of my inheritance on it," she informed me. " Inheritance?" " Yes, my parents were in the army so they made something, and gave me my inheritance," " oh, I'm sorry about you're parents," I said and she chuckled. " They are not dead, Silly," " Oh," " They traveled, and I asked for it. Trust me, those men are not dying anytime soon and I couldn't continue living on a Teacher's salary," she explained. " I have two dads," I did pick up on that. I smiled and squeezed her hand " Where is the tequila?" " Yes! Shots!" she screamed, pulling me towards the kitchen. We each took our shots but decided it wasn't enough, so we drank half of the bottle. We quickly got ready and got into the elevator. Once on the ground floor and outside, there was an escalade waiting for us; " Is that ours?" I asked. A tall man held the door op
His presence was authoritative and domineering too. A woman announced his arrival and everyone in the room bowed respectfully to him and his two men; Aspen and Jett. He noticed me immediately. In a room full of people, he smiled at me and it melted my heart, however, his mood darkened as soon as he saw the man who was standing close to me. I subtly moved away from Richard, and his hand gripped me, he looked to be in shock but as Wyatt advanced towards us, he slowly moved away from me. He extended his hand to me and I reached for him. he pulled me closer to him and kissed my cheek. " Hey, beautiful," he caressed me kindly. " Hey, handsome," I whispered, I was feeling shy now because so many people were watching us so I kept my eyes on him. " What happened to the party?" Aspen said, the music started and people glanced away from us to their partners and slowly chatter built up. " If I knew this was the party you were attending, I'd be keen to come sooner," he said. " I didn't k
Azriel smiled at me and caressed my thick coat " You're beautiful and it was an absolute privilege to be able to see you shift," he said. What colors am I mixed with? I wanted to ask but a growl is what left me. " You're an all-black wolf," he said as if he understood me. " You're taller than most alphas too," I was in shock, how could two betas birth an alpha child? All this was confusing for me. " Hey, go for a run and enjoy the woods. No one will trouble you here and when you come back, you'll find me right here," I nodded and turned on my paws, running through the vast forest. I kept running, hoping and wishing that what happened during the party was a lie, that my mate didn't mark another as his Luna. I prayed to the goddess that it was a fucking lie but the pain in my chest told me otherwise. Did that woman mean Wyatt wanted this too? I only ran faster, Kira howling at the full blue moon now. ' He lied to us,' I told her. Kira didn't answer me but she held grave sadness
We had been on the road for quite some time and only stopped at a gas station. " Do you want something to eat?" he asked and I shook my head, turning away from him. Azriel pumped gas into the car and went to the store. He came out minutes later with bags. He stayed outside for a while before coming into the car and started driving the car again. We were both quiet, and at some point, I closed my eyes and sleep took over me. I woke up to someone shaking me, I stared at Azriel and looked in front of me. We were in front of a nice cottage. I looked behind me when I heard a board of water and indeed, we were surrounded by a lake. " Where are we?" " At the marsh, I like to come here sometimes and it's far from civilization," he said, getting out of his truck. I did the same, " Why did you bring me here?" " You didn't want to see -" " Don't fucking say his name," I interrupted sharply. I didn't want to think of him right now. " Ohm, okay, you know who would have found you in the pack
Azriel I finished my smoke and looked at Adira one more time before driving off. She was distraught and crying, I hated seeing her like that. She loved Wyatt a lot and was hurt. My heart tightened in my chest as she screamed in pain. The best I could do for her is give her peace and space. I didn't know what she would decide, whether it was to leave or stay with him. Both options made me mad. I got home after 8 pm and as I guessed, my brother and his 'minions' I chuckled at the sound of that in my head, were waiting for me. No one of them liked me and didn't bother hiding it but they respected me. Wyatt got to his feet, glaring at me " Where the fuck is she?" he demanded, exuding his alpha aura. " Who?" " Don't be stupid, Azriel," Dalla spat. " And remember who you're fucking talking to, Dalla," I growled, she stared at me with an angry-filled gaze. " Where the fuck is my woman?" Wyatt was shaking with anger now, and he was fighting his wolf for control but I enjoyed taunti
Adira. Days went by and I spent my days, reading and exercising. It relieved my tension, especially now that I've been having bad dreams about people taking me away to a strange place. There was also the issue of me being an alpha female which was bizarre, there were no alpha females around and my parents were betas so how was I an alpha wolf? I sighed, knowing I would have to find out more and the first place to start was back at my former pack. I needed to visit there soon I stayed in my thoughts until there was a knock at the door. I reluctantly went to check. I opened it and a tall man with blonde hair greeted me with a smile. " Hello, there!" " May I help you?" I asked. " My name is Ambrose. Sir Azriel sent me to check up on you," he said. " Is Azriel alright?" " Yes," Ambrose lingered a while and I wondered if he wanted me to invite him in. I swallowed and asked " Do you want some tea?" he nodded and I pushed the door wider. " Thanks," I went to the kitche
Richard was eyeing my reaction but I stayed calm and collected. " And did she send you here?" " No! I came to check up on you. We had such a good time last time," He said. I nodded and stood up. " I think you should leave now," I walked to the door. Richard followed me and held my hands. " I didn't come here on Rachel's behalf, I genuinely just wanted to see how you're doing," he said. " Thank you but you don't have to worry about me," I said firmly. " I'll see you tomorrow," he said and kissed my cheek, before I could respond, he was out of the door. I inhaled deeply as I heard a truck sound and I went outside." Hello, Ambrose," I greeted. " Hi!" he smiled at me cheerfully. I entered his truck and he drove us towards the village. He was drinking a beer and vibing to a song. We drove for ten minutes before we saw a small village in the distance, it looked so lively and stunning, a mariachi band was playing and some people were dancing in the streets. " Are they celebrating so
" I -I don't know," I stuttered. What the fuck was going on with me. I was still in shock, Azriel grabbed my hand and led me into the house. He prepared a cup of tea that I drank. " You're an alpha wolf," he started and I nodded slowly. " I don't know how, from what I know, my parents were both strong betas," I said. " Are you sure they were your real parents?" he asked. I glared at him. " Of course," I growled. " Two betas can't birth an alpha female, Adira," he grounded, returning my glare. " I'm sure they are my parents, we did several blood tests in my former pack," I said calmly. I took another sip of my lemongrass tea. " I've been trying to make sense of it all," I confessed. The smell of his blood was strong to me so, I stood up and rushed upstairs. I grabbed the first aid kit and put it on a table in the living area. " Come in here," I said. " Your blood is really strong, I'll help clean it and then I can do what I did earlier," " No," he said suddenly, making
