Lilith couldn’t hold her tears anymore. Now that a few of them managed to escape, she couldn’t hold anything back anymore. They have been waiting to break free.
Tears that reminded her of the dramatic turn her life took when she turned eighteen, her new rank within the pack, her banishment and above everything else, the respect that the pack members had for her drastically changing into nothing but disgust and scorn.
She really tried to pull through everything thrown her way but she wasn’t strong enough to keep up the façade and the walls which she had built around herself. They were slowly cracking open.
She covered the sob that slipped passed her lips. Her fingertips dug into the skin of her cheeks. She never wanted to cry in front of Blaze.
She thought about asking him to get out but that would only enrage him more. It also didn’t look like her words would make any difference on him. Blaze wasn’t in the right condition to think straight with
Blaze’s thoughts were a mess as he speedily treaded back to the pack house. His wolf was set on one thing until he could get himself to calm down. That was to keep Lilith safe and anything after that could wait. Watching as this strong woman that had built herself as one hell of a confident person break into a fragile porcelain in his arms, Blaze couldn’t allow himself to rest assured until he got this new threat out of his way and away from Lilith. He was ready to do anything to possibly put her back together, to get her to feel safe and comfortable like she has been whenever Katherine was around the house these past few days. Every time he thought back on what just happened, the feeling of her weight falling on him, the agony in her cries and the weak hold she had on him… Blaze wouldn’t be able to calm down until he removed that fear from Lilith. All that was left was that familiar warmth radiating from everywhere she had been pressed against him. While his
Blaze found Lilith pacing in the living room when he got back. On hearing him, her head whipped around in his direction. “I met Jayden. He said he won’t say anything.” Blaze said as he approached her. His voice sounded monotone. It lacked any emotions which Lilith could use to figure out whether his encounter with Jayden was as smoothly as he was displaying. Blaze’s stoic behavior unnerved Lilith. She refused to believe that a person could be this unaffected. He couldn’t be this indifferent. “So, he saw me.” Lilith whispered. He saw me. These three words kept replaying in her mind. Words which caused all of the nerves she had just let go of to return in a blink of an eye. The hair on the back of her neck stood as seconds passed.“Don’t tell me you trust him.” Lilith voiced out her doubts. She remembered the maddening fire in Jayden’s eyes the last time they had met. That was one of the worries still spinning in her mind. She tried to ignore the tur
The next day during breakfast, Blaze noted that Lilith wasn't as cautious as she had been around him. But, she was still not quite comfortable with him around the house. This annoyed his wolf and he wouldn’t stop rambling about this. Blaze groaned when Bash’s constant bickering prevented him from completing the paper works he had to hand over by this evening. He kept forcing Blaze to think of something to make Lilith feel better until Blaze caved in.Blaze mind linked Katherine. 'Can you tell Lilith to come meet me in my office?' 'What are you up to?' Katherine's question came out sounding suspicious. 'Nothing! I'm... can you just tell her, please?' Blaze was slightly miffed seeing Katherine's suspicion of him. 'Okay.' Bash gave a small whine of triumph after hearing Katherine's reply. Blaze pushed himself off the wall he was leaning against and stood straighter once he saw Lilith coming down the hallway to meet him in front of his office a few minutes lat
The overwhelming feeling of panic and dread consumed Lilith as she ran for her life.The panic coursing through her felt different this time. It was deeper in the way it surrounded her. It lured her awareness of everything except what it deemed as a threat, the six pairs of paws chasing her.She begged her legs to move faster. She could hear their ragged breathing mixed with their frustrated growls getting louder and closer.All at once, she felt a forceful jerk against the back of her legs as if one of the three wolves following her directly rammed into her from behind.She found herself falling. She abruptly met the ground. A painful cry of agony left her mouth.She felt sharp claws digging into her back, tearing her shirt as she tried to get away. They harshly pulled her from the spot that she was in, a snarl sounding close to her ears.The sudden action caused a sharp yelp from her before she was pulled into something hard, the hold now
Lilith pushed Bash away and with trembling legs, rushed inside the bathroom.She locked the bathroom door.With her back pressed against the door, she tried to control her uneven breath. It was just Bash. It was just Bash. She repeatedly thought.Blaze forced Bash into submission and shifted back into his human form.‘Something is wrong with Lilith. She needs us.’ Bash refused to let Blaze walk out.‘You scared her. That’s what is wrong with her.’ Blaze scolded him before blocking him.Lilith walked downstairs after she had taken a bath. She felt fresh and ready to face yet another day imprisoned in Blaze’s mansion.A faint smile crossed her lips when she saw Katherine dusting the couches.“What happened? Is something wrong?” Lilith asked Katherine whose face appeared unsettled.Blaze sat upright to check on Katherine too once he heard Lilith.“News about your
His lips touched hers.How could a touch so soft, so barely there, be so wonderful? Lilith thought.He wasn’t even kissing her. It was just his mouth against hers, light as a whisper.Yet, sparks, lots of them flared up, shooting through her like a blazing hot wire.She was being controlled by the mate bond, she realized. She pushed at his chest, forcing him to pull away.She fought the urge to touch her lips. They were still tingling.If a peck sent so much pleasure coursing through her, what would a real kiss feel like?Would she be able to stop herself if they had kissed?She trembled in fear when she noted she probably wouldn’t have been able to stop herself.“The next time I catch you trying to run away, you will be punished.” Blaze whispered into her ear, his lips brushing against her earlobe.Lilith couldn’t stop the whimper that escaped her mouth.Satisfied, Blaze relea
Blaze couldn’t stop Bash from taking in another lungful of her enticing scent which consumed them whole. Noticing something absurd, Lilith’s heart skipped a beat in nervousness as she took in the stiffness in Blaze’s body. His eyes were wide and already shifting from silver to blue. Lilith watched as panic flashed across Blaze’s face for just a second before his body acted, slouching in pain and letting out a little groan of frustration. The light hairs on the skin of his arm all stood straight. His next exhale came with a slight shake, head slowly turning away from Lilith. He fisted his hands. The shards of glass he was holding crushed and dug into his flesh. Blood soon dripped across his fingers and spilled onto the ground, sending the crimson liquid down to stain the tiled floor at his feet. The scene in front of Lilith sent her insides twisting in a different manner she was used to, making the gasp taking over her sound like a panicked sob. Sh
A knock sounded on the door. Lilith got up from the window seat after flipping the opened book she was reading upside down. She opened the bedroom door to find Blaze standing on the other side. “Care to tell me what was that all about?” Lilith asked him. “I’ll be gone for two days. Katherine will come to stay with you by tonight.” He stated. “Is it about the full moon?” Lilith queried, slightly annoyed that he completely ignored her first question. Blaze simply nodded. ‘She looks good in this t-shirt.’ Bash commented, referring to Blaze’s t-shirt which fortunately Lilith was still wearing. “Wear these clothes. You need to conceal your scent.” He gave her some of his clothes which should last for the two days he’d be gone. Lilith nodded while looking down at the stack of clothes currently sitting on her outstretched hands. Surprisingly, when Lilith looked back up, Blaze was gone. Almost as if he had disap
She needed him. Now. No waiting. “Blaze,” she moaned his name, urging him to hurry up. The broad head of his dick pushed at her, and she hooked her other leg around his waist, opening herself to him more fully. With steady pressure, Blaze worked his way in, his eyes never leaving hers. “I love you, Lilith.” “I love you, too, Blaze.” He began to move, slowly at first, then more aggressively, until she was forced to grip the edge of the mattress. The bed squeaked, an erotic chorus to their small sounds and whispered words of love. Reaching between them, he found her clit and strummed the little bundle of nerves, gently at first and then faster. Her orgasm rolled over her and dragged her under. She couldn’t see, couldn’t breathe, couldn’t hear and didn’t care. Wave after wave of pleasure rocked her as he refused to let up on the pressure on her clit until a second orgasm took her and she cried out. He followed her over the edge, burying his face in her neck to muffle his shout.
Aria hugged Lilith for one last time before she stepped back. “Thank you for everything, Lilith.”“Shush,” Lilith shook her head at Aria when she sensed her about to start crying.Aria was leaving the pack forever but she wouldn’t be alone. Chris would be with her.She glanced at her mate with a weak smile when he slipped his hand in Aria’s right hand, interlacing their fingers.Chris squeezed her hand tight to reassure Aria that no matter what happens, he would be with her, always and forever.Aria wasn’t sad that she was leaving the pack except for the fact that she would miss her mother and Lilith. She was looking forward to a new start.This was also a way for her to repent. She couldn’t even look at Lilith in the eyes after what she did to her.Alpha Blaze was nice enough to spare her life after all the crimes she committed.The moment she crossed the pack borders, she felt her bond with the pack sever. It was so sudden that she jerked in reaction.Chris wrapped an arm around her
His mother walked inside the awfully smelling cell and looked straight at Aria who was shackled to the wall.If there wasn’t any remnants of his mate’s scent, Blaze would have puked at the disgusting smell.“Got anything else out of her?” Ignoring the odor, Blaze asked Eric, the warrior who had been assigned for the questioning.“All she kept saying is that she would kill our Luna. She even dared threaten the Luna herself while she was interrogating her.” Eric replied.A chill embraced Blaze as he heard those words.“How come no one was aware of her planning an attack and her escape? How did she even get a weapon when she was imprisoned, and the poison?” Blaze questioned.Eric shrugged, “We suspect it must be someone from her family unless one of our warriors is a traitor.”“None of our warriors know Aria. You might be right about her family. It must be someone from her family but who?” Blaze wondered.“I know who it is,” His mother interrupted.Blaze quickly looked in her direction a
The night before, Mary got a dream about a she-wolf being imprisoned in the dungeons.She knew that the she-wolf had a connection to her in some sort since she got a glimpse of a person dressed in a black cloak passing something over to her through the metal bars.She couldn’t see their faces. He had her back to her and was blocking Mary’s sight of the she-wolf.That she-wolf was planning her escape and this man would help her get away.Mary felt her heart literally stopped when the man walked away and she got to see who was imprisoned inside. It was Aria.She woke up with a start. After a while of just sitting there, she glanced at the clock to see that it was already six in the morning.She hated that she was a soothsayer.Most nights, she wasn’t able to get enough sleep because these dreams would come to her. She would get glimpses of events that would come her way through her dreams. But, she only got the ones which related to her as in to her physical form.Why would she dream ab
“Looking for me?” Lilith jumped, turning so fast her hair flew around and over her shoulder. Ruzek grinned at her. Lilith smiled back at him. “Hey,” she waved. Ruzek mimicked, finding it adorable. “About the work you said we had to do…” He trailed off when he noticed Lilith glancing around them with searching eyes. Lilith suddenly remembered what she had to do. Find Blaze but where was he? “Yeah,” she looked around, “what about it?” “I won’t be free during the day.” Ruzek said with a frown as he tried to discern what Lilith was searching for or whom she was actually searching for. It must be Blaze, Ruzek thought as he caught the Alpha talking to his Beta. Lilith turned to look at Ruzek, but his eyes were fixed at something behind her. Before she could turn to look, she felt Blaze. She felt his presence, her skin prickling with an invisible force of attraction towards him. It was the mate bond doing its magic and not to forget, Lucy was siding with the mate bond as well thes
New energy and optimism strived inside Lilith as the bells rang. The sun peeked brightly through the thick clouds. Pack members stood in line, cheering and hooting names as Ruzek, the nine men and the omegas were asked to come forward.It was the day, the day Lilith had been anticipating with anxiety but great expectations. She was sure the omegas would make great efforts to accomplish deserving respect for themselves.Lilith trained them for two consecutive nights. It was hard but it was not impossible.Her parents came over to help her. Together, they tried the technique both Lilith and Ruzek planned out and it worked out.It was finally time for the battles which Cole had organized for the omegas and rogues. It was to determine their new ranks within the packs.Lilith could feel the nervousness radiating off the omegas while the rogues just appeared indifferent and ready to fight for a higher and well-earned rank within the pack.Jenny, on the other hand, seemed a little bit nervou
A few days had gone by. Lilith got three more missions which she accomplished in no time. The training was going well. Ruzek, Jenny and the nine other men were ready for the battle which the former Alpha prepared for them. The omegas needed to be trained some more. They got a lot better in self-defense but their fighting techniques still needed to be improved. There were only two days left though before the week would be over. Worried and tensed, Lilith glanced around the great valley and went through all the specific trainings she gave them. She wondered where she went wrong. Deep in thought, she didn't notice Ruzek approaching her until he spoke. "What are you doing here all alone?" He looked up at the sky. The sun had dipped below the horizon, the last gasp of beauty before the death of the day. Lilith took a moment to look at the setting sun before saying with a shrug, "I've just been thinking about a few things." "Like what?" Ruzek asked out of curiosity. "I’m worried I
“It’s great to see you all here. We’ll start by running twenty-five times around the valley but in your human forms.” Lilith began by pointing at the running trail that surrounded the boundaries of the great valley. “I’ll see who can run all twenty-five rounds. The ones who give up after a few rounds can come stand in this spot. The ones, who complete it all, will do the next task.” Lilith explained further. She thought there would some complaints from the omegas but they were all ready. They seemed determined to complete all twenty-five rounds. Ruzek, the leader of the rogues and the nine other rogues were the first to head over to the starting point. The omegas soon followed them. “Come on!” When Lilith blew the whistle, they started running at a slow pace. Lilith looked at them with satisfaction. The great valley was the largest training ground in the Blood Moon pack. It stretched away ahead of where Lilith was standing for miles. The continuous line of the trail was lost amo
The rogue's eyes flashed with rage. It seemed like a wild beast was standing in front of Lilith and not someone who was once an Alpha. He clenched his right hand and swung his arm at Lilith, but she blocked his punch at the last second. Lilith wasn't there to kid around. She had to complete her task and be done with it by this evening. He narrowed his eyes down at her, pissed that he wasn't able to hit her. "Surprised?" She raised an inquiring eyebrow at him while her lips tugged up into a smirk. He pulled his fisted hand free before sneering at her with anger lacing his tone, "You got lucky, you bitch!"In a snap of moment, Lilith’s power leashed at the leader and she grabbed him by the neck before slamming him into a wall. "What did you say?" How dare you call me a bitch?" Lilith's jaw contorted with anger as she seized him by the throat, stifling his screams and pleas. His expression darkened, and the color drained from his face as he realized that he made a grave mistake cha
