I decide make some coffee for us both and sit at the table, still not sure how to even work the oven, though managing to use the kettle just fine. It was a quicker boil and easy to use. I just hope that other things I’m going to learn are this easy. I’m not stupid, but I think that with everything I have to learn it will take some time to get used to.
“What would you like with your pancakes?” Jamie asks me, turning his head away from the cooker for a second. “They’re nearly done.”
I frown, not even knowing what does go on them. “What do you like on your pancakes?” I ask.
“I usually have syrup or sugar.” He says with a smile.
“I’ll have syrup please.” I decide, not sure that sugar would go with food very well.
This is all so confusing Kayla, it’s like I’m a newborn cub. I complain, despising the fact that mother kept me out of the l
Dorian's eyes darken, "be careful what you say rogue.""I don't want an agreement, I want to reject him." I say bravely, pushing my shoulders back and my chin up. "I don't anything to do with you or your pack.""it doesn't work like that sweetness." Dorian laughs, "I have already marked you, rejecting me will kill you."I gasp, taking a step back in shock. "No! That can't be true.""I'm afraid it is." Jamie sighs, "it also works the same if you are away from each other for longer than 14 days, you will grow weaker and eventually not be able to shift."I think back to what Kayla told me about feeling weak and tired, my eyes widening in shock and fear. That means that I will always have to see Dorian, he will always be a part of my life no matter how much I hate him."I don't want this." I sob, "I would rather die.""no!" Dorian and Jamie say together, both of them fuming that I would even consider doing somethin
I didn't realise how engrossed in the film I was until it finished, my mind completely distracted by the fictional characters, and I loved every second. The story was good and almost wholesome and I was glad when they fell in love at the end and he turned back into a man. It was beautiful.anton took out the disk and turned towards me, "do you want to get some lunch and then watch another?" He asks."sure." I smile, deciding that I could eat lunch. "What should we watch next?"he leads the way out of the room, continuing to smile, "I don't know, maybe I will let you pick one.""but I don't know anything about them." I protest, not sure if he able to pick a good one.Anton laughs, shaking his head as we enter the kitchen. "That doesn't matter! It'll be interesting to see what you choose." He said. "I'll watch it either way."like Anton, he’s fun. Kayla chuckles
Kayla was excited for the run, we haven’t been able to stretch our legs since Dorian took us from the cabin, and it would be nice to run in wolf form. We met outside by the edge of a clearing, everyone going behind a tree to strip our clothes and shift, meeting in the cluster of trees. I can’t wait for this, running with our mate is a blessing. Kayla howled, throwing her head back. Take it easy on him. I laugh, letting her take over our body. Kayla rushed forward, the wind shooting through our fur as we ran as fast as we could, Anton and Jamie not too far behind us. She howled and cried into the wind, ecstatic that we was free to roam the territory. It was nice that we were no longer trapped in one room and chained up, we could finally have fun. Jamie tackled us to the ground and nipped at our ears, Kayla whining happily as she nipped him back. It was a sight
The Next few days went by quickly, Jamie had bought me loads of clothes and accessories to go with them, I had everything to last me through winter and summer, a complete wardrobe of my own. I wish that I could have brought my clothes from the cabin, most of them I made myself, so they meant a lot to me. I know that may seem silly, but I missed my life, Even though I had Jamie I wished that I could go back to how things were before mother was killed. I had loved growing up in that cabin, not knowing the dangers of the world. It was home, and it always would be.I guess that I was lost without my mothers guidance, I didn’t know how to cope with everything that was going on around me, and I certainly didn’t know the first thing about being a Luna to a pack. Especially seen as I had never seen a pack before I was taken.Jamie had decided that when I return from Dorian’s land it would be time to welcome me into the
I steadily walked down to the kitchen, smiling when I saw Jamie and Anton cooking together, Anton cooking the pancakes whilst Jamie fries the bacon and bread. It’s always nice to see them together, they were a good team, it’s like they complimented each other’s weaknesses and worked as one. It was sweet and sour all at the same time.I liked Anton and so did Kayla, often wishing that he was my mate instead of Dorian, things would be so much simpler if he was, or if Jamie was my only mate. I heard that most wolves only get one mate their entire life and it was rare to have two at the same time. Sometimes the goddess allowed a second mate of the first one dies, but it wasn’t often they were together and alive.But that’s the point Riven, we’ve never been normal. Kayla growls, hating the way that I see us. It’s about time you accept that we will never have a normal life. We&rsqu
The cup I was holding slips from my grasp and shatters on the concrete floor, my eyes locked onto Jamie in absolute terror. I didn’t want to go with Dorian, I didn’t want to be anywhere near him. But I knew that I didn’t have a choice, if I didn’t go Dorian would have the right to attack Jamie’s pack and kill anyone who stood between me and him, including Jamie.I just couldn't be responsible for all the deaths I knew would happen if I refuse to go, Dorian would see it as a betrayal and kill everyone he could before taking me with him anyway. What was the point in fighting this? Their was nothing that I could do, nothing that I could say to make this better.it was like I was a prisoner all over again, I didn't have any control over my life or what happened to me and it made me sick. How could males treat female she-wolves like this? It wasn't fair! We should have some sort of rights too, we really sho
Dorian was silent for a long time, leaving my fear to fester and grow, the tears now flowing freely from my eyes as I sobbed. I shifted slightly on his shoulder, trying to ease some of the pain his bones were causing to my ribcage.he growled, tightening his arm around my waist. "Do you remember what happened the last time you wanted to get down?" He says."How could I forget?" I mumble, still having the scars from where he dragged me through the dirt."don't get smart with me, Riven." He snarls, throwing me into the dirt.I landed at an odd angle, my ankle twisting as he collided with a rock. I gasped in pain, slowly moving to sit up and stare at my so called mate; his face hard with anger.how could he be so angry with me? He is the one that treated me so bad that I ran away, beating me and making me bleed so often I still had some bruises that hadn't cleared up yet
I wake up in the same room I ran from, my heart jumping into my Throat as I sat up and looked around, relieved when I didn't see Dorian anywhere. I climbed from the bed and walked toward the window, noticing the sun was beginning to set, how long had I been out for?I frowned when I noticed the bars across the glass, making it impossible to open the window or jump out, he had trapped me. I sigh, turning away from the window and walking towards the door, growling when I realised that was also locked. He had thrown me in the same room, probably to rot and I doubted he had any intention of taking me back to Jamie once the week was over, he wouldn't want me out of his sight.I feared that perhaps it would be much the same as before I escaped, locked in a room and unable to do anything. I'd hate if that was the case, so instead I bang on the door, shouting Dorian's name.I wasn't waiting long before I heard footsteps appr
Beta Zack dragged me through the dungeon and up the stairs, I guessed he was leading me to the alpha, though I didn't know for sure, I couldn't follow the directions properly, ever turn and corner had me confused, the three flights of stairs he pulled me up making my legs ache. "Keep up, we are already late because you decided to sleep so long." He snaps, seeming stressed and nervous at the same time."it's not my fault, you are the one who made me sleep." I murmur, doing my best to keep up with his pace. it's not like I had a choice in any of this, I was kidnapped against my will, something that I had experienced before. I just hoped that I wouldn't get raped this time. Maybe Zane would be more gentle than Dorian. but I wasn't about to get my hopes up, I knew better than that. This alpha killed my father, I had to be careful, if I disobey him, I might find myself if a worse situation than when I woke up. Maybe Dorian and Jamie would find me and everything would be ok, but I ran a
i woke up in dark room, my arms chained to the wall behind me, i try to struggle but the instant i do my skin burns, letting me know that the chains are silver, one of the most deadly things to our kind. it makes us weak and disconects us from our wolf. panic seeps through me, i dont know what to do, or how to escape, i have always been a weak wolf, mother tried to toughen me up, but i was always so scared.The one time i try and take destiny into my own hands and i am kidnapped and chained somehwere dark, no light anyhwhere. i pull my knees towards my chest and sob, i was trapped left at the mercy of the alpha who killed my father. how could i let this happen?Kayla please tell me you are there, i need you! i call out desperately, only to be met by silence, the silver severing our bond. What was i going to do? escape wasnt an option, not when i didnt know where i was, and how could i escape from these chains? i wasnt strong enough to break silver, not with how weak it was making my
what do we do? i asked my wolf, dodging out of the way of one of my attackers. we fight. She growls, lending me her strength. i should have known better than to leave the safety of Dorian's pack, we were just beginning to make things work, i shouldn't have taken off like that. it was a mistake i would not make again, if i got out of this alive i would go back and ask for forgiveness, explain that i became overwhelmed by everything. I wasn't a cowered, i could take responsibility for my actions, even if that meant pain. But right now i needed to focus, if i was going to get out of this alive i had to fight back, i had to show them i wasn't weak and easily taken down. i used the abilitiy i had barley any practice in, knowing i could manipulate the dirt around me. there was only one problem, i was beginning to lose my temper, something that could potentially become dangerous. i lifted several rocks into the air using my gift and launched them at the three who were attacking me, catc
It was late into the evening when I arrived at the cabin, my feet and back aching like they never have before. I didn't realise how far it was the first time around, though I guess that's because I didn't exactly walk. the cabin looked just like it did when I left, and yet so much different, so much had happened since I last saw it, and not all of it good. We'll, most of it wasn't bad to be honest. But I couldn't change the past, no one could. I just had to get the money and leave, start a new life somewhere else, somewhere that they wouldn't find me. Somewhere I could call home. It’s nice to see home again. Kayla says, a slight sigh of content coating her voice. It is. I reply, a soft smile crossing my face. It’s a shame that mother isn’t here, she’ll make it all better. She would, I really miss her. I sigh, wishing she could be here, wishing that she wasn’t dead. Me too. Kayla replies, but don’t get down about it, we’re here to start again, just like you said. You are right
Do you really think this is a good idea? What about Jamie?” Kayla asks me, concerned we are making the wrong decision.“We never wanted this, any of it.” I counter, walking deep into the woods and further away from Dorians pack lands. “We’ll be better off alone, like before.”“But we weren’t alone before, we had mother with us.” I sigh, frustrated that my own wolf doesn’t trust us or my decisions. “We can do this Kayla, we are strong enough to survive on our own.” “What about the fact that we will become weaker away from our mates? What if we are attacked and we can’t defend ourselves?” Growls my wolf, “you have to think this through, this
I stared at Liam for a long moment, I didn't want to be Luna, I wanted a simple life, but I knew that me and Dorian were trying to make up and I didn't want to ruin it, we were mates after all. I coukdnt exactly get away from him even if I wanted to."yeah guess you are lucky." I half laughed, setting the plates onto the table."You don't seem convinced. Is something bothering you?" Liam asks, watching me closely as he takes his seat."I barley know anything about pack life, or life with others in general, I'm not sure I'll be a good Luna." I say slowly, picking at my food. "I'm not sure I want to be Luna."The beta sighs, it's your duty as the alphas mate to help run the pack, I know you had a hard start here, but I think you could be happy. We aren't as bad as we look, we just don't like rogues." he takes a bite of the food. "Mmm this is good.""not everyone is a
I woke up the next morning to find that Dorian was gone, and by how faint his scent was he had left sometime in the middle of the night, long before the sun came up, but why? had something come up that couldn't wait? did someone contact him and ask for his help? I still didn't know how packs worked, but from what I did know alphas were important and they ran the pack, everything had to go through them. All decisions had to be approved by him. I got up from the bed and stretched my stif body, yawning as I walked into the bathroom, my slow pace evidence enough that I hadn't slept well, at least; not after he left I didn't. I wished that pack business could wait for a little while and we could spend some time together fixing things between us. But I knew that I couldn't ask him to neglect his people because of me. That wouldn't be right. from what I had
After our talk Dorian went to deal with some pack business, saying that he would be back later to get us some dinner. He asked that I stay in the room until then, but he left me three books to read and some light snacks to keep me occupied.I was glad that he was finally accepting me, even if he had a long way to go before I could fully trust him, it was a start; one that we both needed. I had so many questions about the pack, about how things are run here and how different they are to the way Jamie does things. I was happy that Dorian was willing to make things work with me, especially since we were both trapped together because of the mate bond, it would have been a shame if we remained adimant on hating each other. I wanted a nice life, one that my mother would approve of, and even though he killed her and raped me, I was willing to give it a try.I wasn't sure what would come next, or if we would ever actually l
I wake up in the same room I ran from, my heart jumping into my Throat as I sat up and looked around, relieved when I didn't see Dorian anywhere.
