Rachel’s pov. "I can’t be in the same car with David; hell no way!" I vented. "I do not want you in this car either; I can’t stand you." David said as he heard Scott and I talk.I rolled my eyes mentally and glared at him."But you have no other choice now, because I am not sure the driver will come today." Scott uttered. "I would rather walk home, Scott; thank you very much.""No, why will you do that? You know the park house is far from school." He held my hand and immediately let go."I will be fine." I formed a smile at the corner of my lips."Alright then, be careful." He said that, walked back into the car, and drove off.I walked back home when I was still staying with my foster family, the Williams, so why can’t I now? I hung my bag properly and began my journey.Getting to a familiar street, which I did pass every day when I was still staying with the WilliamsYes! This is an opportunity I should grab. I’ll use this medium to see them and spend at least a little time with
Rachel’s POV "I went to see my foster family." I stuttered, looking for words to say. The cold look he gave me made shivers run down my spine; I got goosebumps."Why would you go there?" He raised his voice even more, which made me flinch. I swallowed the huge lump that formed in my throat."Luna said I could see them." I replied immediately. Trying to form courage"I know I have given you the privilege to see them, but you need to ask for permission before going. You've got us worried here, Rachel." Luna blurted after, keeping a worried look."I am sorry if I made you worry too much." I bowed and apologized. She was right; I should have asked first."It’s alright; come have dinner with us." Luna insists."No thank you, I’m all full; I ate with them while I was there." I spoke out to Luna.I turned to leave."Rachel! Come sit with us." The Alpha uttered it, causing me to gasp. Yes, I’ll say I am quite scared of him."I am not hungry." I replied back with a shaking voice."I said, com
David’s POV The last kiss Rachel and I shared was something I couldn’t imagine; the way I felt that day, I haven’t felt that in my life. I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about it that whole day.I wanted her so badly; I hungered and thirst for her to the extent that I felt my fangs coming out. There is a kind of scent she has on her neck, and I can’t resist it. And with what she wore, I couldn’t hold myself any longer. I tried so hard to push myself away, and when I finally did, I didn’t want to look at her face, so I ordered her to leave.I finally regained myself and left. I walked to the bathroom, washed my face, and walked out.School was finally over, and Scott drove the car to where she was, which I don’t know why.“Why are you driving in Rachel's direction? Aren't we supposed to be heading home?” I asked him.Yes, we will be heading home, but the alpha asked us to pick Rachel from now on, and we have to obey.” He answered, but his attention was on the road.I felt happy th
Rachel’s POV. What's wrong with him this morning? Why does he want to order me around? He shouldn’t get on my nerves already."I really do not like what you are wearing, Rachel, and it looks so tight on you." He said this as we were almost close to the car.What’s this? Is he my boyfriend or something?"But I am comfortable with it; please let’s go to school now; we are already running late." I said that and walked into the car as he drove out.We finally arrived at school. I walked out of the car."Rachel!" David called me back immediately.I turned to him,What does he want again?"Wait there." He said so and parked properly."What do you want?" I asked him."Let’s walk inside together." He uttered it without looking at me.What has gotten into him?I scoffed. "Why?""Let’s just go now." He said that, and we both walked in. All eyes were on us, but I was already used to it."You look good, girl." A guy complimented me.Oh, thank you." I smiled. Immediately, David grabbed my hand to
David’s POV Rachel refused to change her dress, so we left for school. I'll just have to walk with her if that’s what it takes.We finally got to school.“Rachel!” I called her back to wait for me, and we both walked in.A guy complimented her like he didn’t notice she was walking with a guy. This is the exact reason why I want her to change what she wears, but she won’t listen. I held her hand so it would be more noticeable that she was walking with a guy.“What’s that for?” She asked. “Why will a guy compliment you when you are walking with me?" I said to clear out.“I smell jealousy.” That was the word that rang into my ears. So I let go of her hand immediately and walked in front of her.I don’t want to show her I care for her, but I can’t help myself. And the fact that she called me jealous got me annoyed.I turned as I heard her whimper in pain. As an unknown guy spanked her ass.The sink alone caught me off guard.I couldn’t hold myself. I hurriedly gave him a blow to the che
Rachel’s POV I woke up with a spinning headache; my vision was blurry but managed to clear gradually. As I sat up."You’re awake, Rachel." Scott's face brightened as he turned to look at me.Yes, I am, but my head aches a lot." Both hands were placed on my temple as I grinded my teeth."Just lie back." Scott spoke and pushed me gently to lie back on the bed."I’ll go get you medication." He said that and walked out of the room. I still felt a little pain in my abdomen. But it was not as before.I closed my eyes tightly and placed my hand underneath my stomach.Scott finally came back in, but not alone with Luna.Scott, you may leave; just drop the medicines." She ordered, and he obeyed."This was David’s whole fault, I know, but you would have just waited in school, or perhaps waited." She scolded me and sat beside me in bed."I tried calling, but no one picked up." I defended myself."It’s okay; just rest now, and I’ll give you your medication." She patted me and brought out the pil
Rachel’s POV "Then we should sever all ties, David, and end all this foolishness." We kept our eyes connected to each other as he slowly let go of me.Without uttering a word, he walked out of my room and slammed the door. I went back to my bed and cried out of my eyes because I felt terrible heartache after saying those words to him.I went to sleep with tears in my eyes.It was morning. I woke up and stretched out with a yawn in my mouth.I stood up and changed into a towel to prepare for school, and immediately my mind flashed back to what the Aloha said.Tsk. I’ll still go no matter what.I was done with my bath, so I stepped out a few minutes later and headed downstairs.I saw Luna, and I greeted her."Rachel, do you want to go to school?" She walked up to me."Yes, I want to eat now, and before I leave, David shouldn’t bother taking me to school." I replied to her, and she frowned immediately."You know the Alpha said you and David are going, and nothing will change that, and b
David’s POV It was already evening, and I had to prepare for a date I didn’t even plan for.From what she told me last night, I really want to end everything with her, but I couldn’t bring myself to tell her.I am so confused about everything. I want Laura to be my Luna, and I find it hard to tell Rachel to end all things with me.I just hope I am not developing feelings for her. I shouldn’t be thinking about this now.I know Rachel doesn't like me. Even from what she said, I know she doesn’t like me, but I feel annoyed about it.Why should I be? I am in love with Laura. I should always remind myself about that.I walked out of my room, heading to the sitting room, when I barged into my mother.She left Rachel’s room, heading downstairs.“Oh, my son, you look extremely handsome.” She kissed my forehead.“Thank you, mother.” And smiled at her, leaving the corridor to leave for the room when my mother stopped me.“David!” She called, and I turned back to her.“You should stand here and
Rachel’s POV Two years later,I woke up to a bright, sunny morning with a yawn in my mouth. And immediately, a smile filled my face. Today is my wedding day, and I have hoped and waited for so long for this day to come. I was so happy, mixed with nervousness.I actually couldn’t wait to be Mrs. Rachel Kessler; my love for him grew with every passing day. I am so blessed to have a man like him. David has always been my supporter and backbone these past few years. We grew so fond of ourselves that we couldn’t go a day without seeing each other.I can proudly say he is obsessed with me, and so am I.David has always been the one praying for the day to break quickly; he loves me more than anything I can imagine, and our love keeps on booming with every passing day.And for Scott, he met his mate last year, a very beautiful and courageous woman named Anna. She loves Scott so much, and Scott loves her too, and I always pray for the best for them.I left my bed to prepare for the big day ahe
Rachel’s POV I waited for David the whole night, but I didn’t see him until I fell asleep. Maybe he was so busy due to Scott’s event coming up, and tomorrow he will be so busy. I would have to wait until any day he isn’t tied up with work, and I couldn’t summon the courage to call if he is so busy that he can’t take calls now.The next day, it was already evening. Throughout the whole day, I haven't set my eyes on David. He has been so busy with work, and I am sure he would be so stressed out.I was getting ready for the event, and I am sure I will at least see David there, even if I don’t get the chance to tell him how I feel for him.I wore a red long dress with a split at the back; it looked so lovely on me. I curled my hair into thick curls and packed it up, leaving some strands at the front of my hair and at the back as well.My makeup was properly arranged. When I was done, I picked up my black mini-purse and left the room.“Are you done? Luna asked and looked at my dress. “You
Rachel’s POV “You….” David wanted to speak, and immediately we heard a resounding knock on the door.“Who is there? David shouted and frowned as there was an interruption.I was quite upset too; I wanted this guy so bad, and now he might just leave very soon.Alpha, there is a problem, and the elders in council need you urgently. Someone shouted outside the door, It should be one of the guards. “Alright, I'll be there. David walked close to the door and answered, but before he would turn, I stood up from the counter. And arranged myself properly.“Are you leaving already? He asked as he walked up to me quickly.Yes, I am; you should get back to work; maybe we will talk later. I answered and was about to work out when he gripped my hand and brought me back to himself. My hand touched his irresistible chest.And I turned to look at him. I felt so different. I was so sad to leave. I am sure this isn’t my wolf in control. Whenever he holds my hand, I don’t ever want him to leave it. When
Rachel’s POV We were heading back home when David got a call from the packing house.He sounded like there was a little issue there. “I hope everything is fine, Alpha David. I asked immediately, and I was a little shocked. He told me everything is fine, and it’s Laura’s parents who want to see him.I gasped as he mentioned Laura’s parents were in the pack house waiting for him. I just hope nothing will happen. Since he is an Alpha now, this will go smoothly.We got home, and we walked in.Laura, if you’d go and have some rest, I’ll come meet you up later. He sounded like we were married or something, but he sounded nice.“Alright, I will see you later then. I answered and smiled. It’s actually getting so sweet because nowadays he says sweet words without him knowing he said them.I know he will be going to his stable, and whatever they discuss about it will turn out to be good and still resolve the peace we all need.I walked into my room and took off the coat.Fuck! I haven’t given
David’s POV I have known Josh right from when we were all little; I was closer to him than Scott at that time, and we all attended the same school until he was later transferred.He was the first I told about Laura and how I liked her and wanted her to be my friend; he was the reason I began to talk to her when we were little.Immediately, Rachel revealed to me that Josh Robert was her mate. I was so shocked and surprised because I didn’t see that coming, and I was glad too because, since I know him, it wouldn’t make things hard for me.He is a guy of justice and plays his games fairly; that’s one of the things I admire most about him.I noticed how hurt he was after rejecting her. He said those words out of rage; he didn’t plan for this, but it was bound to happen by the moon goddess, and I can say he did the right thing.“I shouldn’t have done this to myself. Laura beat herself up as she fell to the ground, crying and whimpering in pain. She groaned so hard and rolled herself on th
Rachel’s POV David, you shouldn’t do that. I held his hand immediately, but his hand was still hanging in the air, and his fist was tightly clenched. I think he stopped himself before I stopped him.“You need to watch your mouth, Laura. Don’t let me do something that I might regret. He pointed at her, still with rage in his eyes. David looked so angry because Laura did something bad but did not want to accept the fact that she did anything wrong.Her mouth was shut immediately; she could not even speak anymore.“You were mated to a soon-to-be Lycan king, right? Who is he? David asked, demanding an answer from her, and immediately I gasped. I suddenly remembered the day Scott and I saw them at a restaurant, and Scott told me how David and Josh had been really close.“And why are you asking? She asked and frowned heavily.“You shouldn’t be asking me that. With all that you have done, do you think I will let you go so easily? David fired at her back, and she seized up immediately; her e
Rachel’s POV I hugged him and finally let go.“You don’t have to cry; let’s be bold enough to finish what they started. He said that and cleaned my eyes. I stared at him and smiled, nodding slowly.I was so glad he still hasn’t forgotten and that he kept his promise all this time.“You have done so much already; thank you so much. I said, looking directly into his blue eyes.“Rachel, you don’t have to thank me. He laughed softly. Once I am done with whatever I will do tomorrow, we will both go to Laura’s house to ask her questions. He voiced. “Alright, you should go and have some rest now; today was a long day for you. I insisted, and he nodded in agreement.“And I’ll also leave you to rest. He stretched to my neck and kissed my lower cheek close to my ear. “Good night.” He whispered in my ear.I smiled when he looked at my face. “Good night.” I answered, and he smiled, stood, and left.He left the room and closed the door immediately. I fell onto my bed and hugged my pillow tightly
Rachel’s POV Everyone from different packs was gathered in the hall. The Alpha and Luna, along with other Alphas and Lycan kings from different packs and their family members, were present; they were all seated as noble subjects.I stepped outside of the hall to contact Mary to see if she would still make it, but graciously, yes, she was on her way. My foster family was already there, waiting for the ceremony to begin.Immediately, I saw David and Scott standing behind their car, and I waved at them and walked to them.David looked so handsome; he looked more like a prince, and he was dressed so respectfully, as an Alpha should be.I learned that David was quite nervous, and I told him that it is normal for everyone to be nervous for a thing like this and that he should be strong, or better yet, he should not look at anyone’s face.“If I had the chance to look at anyone, I’d look at you. When he said that, my heart fluttered, and I tried so hard not to blush. Immediately, David’s pho
David’s POV I have been away from home for the past week now, and tomorrow will be my coronation. My stay outside the park house has been so hectic, but the new powers being unleashed in me by my dad burst all my happiness.I was finally given the powers to rule the pack and to always use them whenever there are problems in the pack. Powers of not only hearing minds but also powers to defeat any evil. It made me much more fearless and strong.“David, these powers are given to you to protect your pack and to always put your life on the line to save your pack. Father ministered to me after unleashing the powers on me, and I agreed with him to obey the instructions.I went to bed afterwards to prepare for the big day tomorrow, and I also couldn’t wait to meet Rachel. I have always missed her so much.After finding out what Laura did to her pained me bitterly, I have told this to only Scott, and I told him not to tell Rachel yet. Rachel’s suspicions about Laura were all correct, and I do
