Third Person POVNicolette was still shivering violently in Malcom's arms, more than usual. Malcom was terrified for his mate. He didn't know how much more she could take of the black magic in her.She wouldn't stop mumbling about the visions that the black magic showed her. She mumbled words that were out I to her head and the surroundings around her.Malcom listened to her quiet mumbling, trying to pick out bits and pieces of the clouded words she said. He had never felt so helpless. It felt like he was watching his mother get beat. He beat himself up knowing he should have there, aware that she had left.Nicolette was slipping in and out of consciousness but she didn't know it. She only saw the flashes in front of her. She couldn't tell what was real and what wasn't. She knew she had to call out for help in some way but her body was not hers.Her wolf and demon couldn't control the black magic taking over their witch's body. No power of hers could push out the evil invading her brai
Third Person POVHis heart dropped to see her cry. It didn't used to affect him but after he marked her it was like he could feel her emotions through their bond."What do you mean?" He asked slowly as if he already knew the answer but wanted to hear it from her. A stray tear created a stream down her face that led the other tears follow through the path the first tear made."T-the dark magic showed me that I was going to die. I saw a woman there but she had no face. There was one face that I recognized though, Henry," she said. He could feel her fear in the room, not only through their link. She always spoke about how she wanted to die, but now that she is going to die, reality set."I'm scared," she whimpers. She let down her walls and let Malcom in. She let him comfort her because for once she didn't know what to do. She had grown to love the pack she once resented. She had loved a pack she only knew a select amount of people and a few places, but she felt the need to protect all of
Third Person POVNovember 28th, xxxx"Checkmate." A loud groan broke Nicolette's concentration. She let out a growl and waved her hand to where Seth and Lucas were sitting. Their chess board flew across Malcom's office."Pay attention to your pack," she growls. "This is the royal pack and it look like a regular pack. You are kings and you behave like children. Your pack is being threatened by a powerful force and all you are doing playing chess?" Nicolette let out a huff and went back to staring at the map."Nicole we've been here for three hours," Seth let out a groan. She rolled her eyes and clicked on the top of her pen over and over again."And that's three more hours that I've been more focused than you all," she muttered under her breath. Malcom watched the scene silently as he watched his mate, beta, and gamma bicker."I think that Malcom's attitude is rubbing off on you. Since you both mates and all," Lucas commented. Nicolette let out a growl and slammed her pen onto the desk.
⚠️ Sensitive Topics⚠️Third Person POVNicolette found it weird that they had both disappeared and Malcom didn't have a clue of what they were doing. We walked back to his house in silence. The sun was starting to set and the blue sky turned into a orange and yellow mess.As we got closer to his house, Nicolette sensed a familiar presence but she knew he wasn't supposed to be here. She sees Beck arriving at the front door of Malcom's house."Beck? What are you doing here?" She calls out to him. A smile was plastered on his face as he turned and saw her. He ran up to Nicolette and pulled her into a hug. She wrapped her arms around him but then a low growl was heard through the silence."He marked you," Beck whispers into Nicolette's ear. She nod and he backs up a bit, not wanting to cause any trouble with the Alpha King. "I was told to come here but I don't know why. I assumed it was you but I don't think you knew I was supposed to come." Nicolette glances up at Malcom and he shrugs.He
Third Person POVShe just stared at it for awhile.Nicolette hands trembled as she watched small rocks and pebbles drop down into the deep chasm. She counted how long it would take for a pebble hit the bottom of the revenue, 68 seconds. It took 68 seconds for a pebble to fit the bottom.She stood in shook as she counted over, and over, and over again. It was shocking to her that she could do that. Nicolette started to tremble and she ran to a tree and threw up the small snacks she ate throughout the day."Oh god Nicolette, you're not pregnant are you?" She heard from behind her. Nicolette rolled her eyes and shot a glare to Beck."No Beck, I'm not pregnant," she growled as she wiped her mouth. There was no other indicator that she was pregnant. She threw up because of nerves."Are you sure Nicolette because I think the mate bond was completed and you don't have to be in heat to get pregnant," he said. He was propped up against a tree, watching her from afar."Whatever dad," she rolled
November 29, xxxxThird Person POVIf a wolf was hunting right now, they would hear the crackling embers fluttering up into the sky, or the wind whistling through the chasm Nicolette created last night.Nicolette stood in front of the fire, putting all of her concentration in making sure its embers stay alive. She found the crackling calming while she thought about tomorrow.She felt like there should be more of a plan than going in blindly. Was she prepared? Did she think this fight through? Nicolette already knows what is going to happen, they made sure of that.When the dark magic infested her, it showed her an scene. She hadn't told Malcom about this 'vision' but she knew it was bad. She'd watch him work his ass off to keep her safe but she knew it was inevitable.It was evening now and Beck left in the morning. Nicolette had slipped out of her room as soon as the sun was out and started training. She let the fire die off and stood up to a table of knives.It had been awhile since
Third Person POVLife is like two cars driving through an intersection at the same time. Both of the people driving the cars think that their path across this intersection is clear, until they crash. We move through life, thinking that our road to our end goal is clear, until something knocks us right off of our road.Nicolette walked into the pack house, greeted with bows from the pack members. Her hand covered the side of her neck, forgetting that Malcom's mark lay on it. She walked through the pack house quickly, tying to avoid everyone.She wandered through the vast, empty halls of the pack house, eventually getting lost. Nicolette brought her demon out slightly and found the faint trail of Malcom's scent. It was a short way to his office but as she got closer, she smelt another she-wolf's scent intertwined with his.The scent was familiar but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. She didn't think much of it until she heard shouting coming from inside his office."Her? You left
Third Person POVNicolette woke up on the ground and Lucas still on top of her. The fire in Lucas' eyes had died down but he still looked furious."Reject him," he told her. She broke eye contact with him and looked away. He relaxed the amount of force he put on her shoulders and a moment of realization happened. "You're not going to do it.""It'll kill me and him. I debated it if i reject him, the power that went from my body to his wouldn't come back to me but practically eat him alive. That's what happens to she-wolves when they get rejected.""It's toxic Nicole you don't deserve to be in a relationship like that. Your wolf will become more depressed if you don't reject him. And don't give me that bullshit about your morals because this is abuse," Lucas growled."You know rejection only works if the other agrees." Nicolette turned her head to see Malcom standing there. She lets out a growl and shoved Lucas off of her.Malcom looked at her as her eyes started to flash to black. Lucas
I could hear her gurgling next to me, followed by giggling and Caden's voice soft as possible and quiet, whispering to her."Are you a pretty girl? Of course you're a pretty girl."He hummed to her and my eyes fluttered open.The sight in front of me made my heart soar. Caden sat against the headboard, he had his knees up and had our daughter lying on them her feet just barely touching his stomach.His huge hand covered most of her chest and stomach. The other hand was held by his index finger, by her.She stared up at him and he softly and gently massaged her stomach whispering things to her."My beautiful Adira."He coed and she smiled at him squeezing his index finger. Her free hand rested on top of her father's.I watched them for a bit longer before sitting up and leaning against Caden. He leaned over and kissed me on the lips, his short beard rubbing against the bottom side of my chin.He pulled back and I smiled at him. He smiled back then we put both our attention on our small daughte
"Thats awful. Thats a no-no. Maybe he actaully lost track of time but he should have been listening to you."She replied and I nodded, wiping my makeup off roughly."Well make him pay, you know what to do."She announced and I nodded. I got into my comfy pjs and we watched N*****x, but I kept zoning out.I really thought Caden and I were getting somewhere, but no, we're just two stubborn hot heads fighting constantly.Maybe he wasn't right for me, maybe it was just, I don't know. Are couples supposed to fight this much?I guess my parents had a really rough patch that they both hate to talk about.But their situation was worse and much more different from my own. It sucked. It really did.I was so confused. I sighed and cleared my mind of my thoughts and tried focusing on happy thoughts.I continued to watch the movie with Ellie until I fell asleep. Three days later I avoided Caden everywhere. I avoided him for three whole days. He began to grow stubble and had bags under his eyes.I began to
The man put both wrists in his one hand and pulled my shirt up, exposing my sports bra.I struggled in the mans grasp and David smirked."Yes, do show them off."He commented and I stopped, letting my head hang.David's cold hand was suddenly on my breast, underneath my bra and I screamed. Caden lunged at him and recieved another punch to the face.I squeezed my eyes shut and looked away."Don't touch her."Caden snapped and a tear slid down my cheek.Suddenly my wrists were released and I fell to my knees. I pulled my shirt down and held myself, my eyes still shut."Get away from her."Caden warned when suddenly a fistful of my hair was grabbed and my head was forced upwards.I looked up at David and he lifted me off the ground. He grabbed my shirt and ripped the fabric.My hands went over my chest while the shards of my shirt fell to the ground. I stared at the ground when suddenly David pulled me into him. He licked the side of my neck and I gagged.He shoved me to the ground and I curled into m
I yawned and sat up, running my fingers through my hair. I sighed and sat there for a few moments before getting out of bed. I got dressed and used the bathroom before going downstairs.I had woke up a bit late so everyone was already eating. I walked into the dining room, ignoring everyones stares. I sat down and ate quietly while my grandma's quietly chatted nonstop. Everyone was silent, and I knew most of them had heard Caden and I.Caden kept his eyes forward as he ate, keeping his gaze away from me. I kept my eyes down as I ate, in the uncomfortable silence. Once breakfast had finished my dad brought my mom, Mason and I into his office."We need to talk about your past with Abram, Adlin."My dad announced and I looked down at my hands."Caden told you didn't he?"I asked and my dad nodded."Abram and I dated for a month when I was sixteen. At first it was ok but then he started trying to fuck me and when I denied him he would call me names and other bad things.Once I ended it he starte
I opened the door and looked into the room. He sat on the couch, his head in his hands."Caden?"I asked softly and his head snapped up so fast I'm surprised he didn't get whiplashed."Are you alright?"I asked and he nodded, standing up. He walked over to me and I looked up at him."Are you sure? You look troubled."I asked again and he gave me an annoyed look."The men are treating me like a fragile doll."He muttered and I sighed."Because you're hurt, once you heal they'll act normal again. We're a family here Caden, everyone cares about each other."I replied and he slightly nodded, not looking at me.It was as if he wasn't even listening to me."I don't need a break."He repeated sternly and I sighed."Caden, you fell over today because you tried leaning on your bad leg. Let me take care of you for awhile."I begged and his face hardened, his eyes snapping down to me in a glare."I don't need a break and I don't need you treating me like a fucking child. I can care for myself, I'm fine."He hiss
"Talking to yourself?"He asked smirking and I glared at him. They took me the other night, instead of killing me and going after Mason and the girls because they decided I was useful.They saw how Adlin had shouted for me, and knew I was important, to her. So that meant I was trusted.The Swedish wanted me to sneak them into the Russian estate so they could take my Adlin. Weaken the Russians.But I wouldn't speak, nor agree to help them so they beat me, tried to drown me, but I still wouldn't reveal anything or help them.He opened the cell and stalked towards me. He crouched down in front of me and shoved my head into the wall.I clenched my jaw and fists. I could hear a ringing noise and he punched my stomach. A gush of air left me and I wheezed. The man smirked and stepped on my ankle. I gritted my teeth and he pulled out his knife.He jabbed it into the bullet wound on my leg and I hissed, glaring at him fiercly. He smirked again then stood and turned his back to me, first mistake. I ki
A group of men walked in and Caden watched them, along with Mason. They spoke Russian to each other, watching the men sucpicously.I didn't know much Russian, but Mason did because of my dad and grandpa. I mean, my dad would teach me if I wanted, but I didn't really want to know.I think it'd be cool for my kids to speak Russian. The group of men sat away from us and the boys looked away.Ellie shot Mason a look and he cleared his throat and began to talk about the restaurant in English. I was full, like really full. We payed the bill and left the restaurant. As we walked out the group of men from earlier, followed us out.Mason whispered something to Caden in Russian and he nodded. We were guided into some random building and Caden kissed me suddenly."Hide with Ellie. We'll be back."He whispered and I opened my mouth to ask a question but Ellie's hand wrapped around my wrist and began to drag me to the back of the store."We need somewhere to hide."She whispered looking around."Why?"I re
"Sorry about earlier."We apologized at the same time. We looked at each other and he smirked."You're sorry?"He asked."Are you?"I replied and he nodded so I did. He sighed then pecked my lips."Let's stop this silent treatment shit please."He muttered and I whispered an ok.He hovered over me and pressed our lips together. He trailed down to my shoulder and I tangled my fingers in his hair."You're parents are gone out again."He muttered and I stopped."So?"I asked and he smirked. What was he getting at?He must have saw my confused look because he sighed."Sex Adlin, I mean sex."He replied and my eyes widened."You're rushing things Caden."I replied and he nodded."Sorry."He muttered then pecked my jaw."At least let me sleep with you again tonight."He replied and I sighed then nodded. "Adlin?"My dad asked from behind the door. Caden fell off my bed and I shoved him into my closet."Yeah dad?"I called and he walked in along with Colton, Arthur and Ivan. They all sat at the foot of my bed."Adlin
I changed into ny running shorts and sports bra. I grabbed my sneakers then went outside of the estate.I pulled my hair up into a ponytail then sprinted down the road. I was breathing kinda heavy halfway, but I kept going.After awhile my phone beeped notifying me that I had sprinted for eight minutes.I turned around and ran back to the house, in total I took sixteen to twenty minute runs each day, depending on how I was feeling. I jogged inside and up to my room. I showered before throwing on some sweat pants and a tanktop.I went downstairs and grabbed a chocolate bar. I never gained weight really, it was because of my fast metabolism.Caden was in the kitchen talking to another man while I ate my chocolate bar, sitting on the counter.Once the man had left Caden looked at me, and I pretended not to see him."Adlin,"He said with his wonderful accent.Mason and I didn't really have accents, due to the fact our parents having different accents. Sometimes I spoke like an Italian, other times
