Freya's P.O.V "I don't even know why I'm nervous…right?" I asked both Mirage and Sarah as they stood making last minute adjustments to my clothes and make-up. "I mean…its Cameron! I can feel him! He's not going to run away…there's not going to be any rain, I checked the weather report like…a thousand times…there's not gonna be a thunderstorm…oh god! Tides! What if the high tides roll in and drown the entire ve-" "Freya," Sarah gave me a calm smile… "If you don't stop panicking, I swear to the Moon Goddess that the only one drowning in the sea tonight will be you and your pretty dress. We get it. You checked all the signs and so did we. EVERYTHING is under control." I gave her a nervous laugh as my stomach churned with nervousness. "Oh…god!" "Oh no!" Mirage rushed to me with a bucket. "Are you sure you're not pregnant? You've been oddly…fidgety all morning…the entire week to be honest. Even at Sarah
Mirage's P.O.V Alex took my hand and urged me away from the crowd. Freya's wedding had just concluded and the party was in full swing. The new bride and groom were dancing their second dance alone on the dance floor and since Freya's biological father was no longer in the picture, Alpha Charles was going to be the one to dance with her next. It was a beautiful moment and I didn't want to miss it, but apparently, Alex had other plans. He began dragging me away only went the dance was half-way done. "What?" I frowned at him, puffing up my cheeks in disappointment. "I really wanted to dance with you next…" "I have a better place for us to dance at." He gave me a cheeky smile and began dragging me away from the crowd and to a deserted area of the beach, away from all the celebration. "Where are we going?" I asked impatiently, thankful that my dress went only to my knees. If it had been to my ankles, it would be col
Lilac's P.O.V: 'Run, little wolf…run!' The words kept reverberating inside my head as I dashed past the forest giants, going deeper and deeper into the forest with each step I took. It was dark, and with each step further into the forest, it kept getting darker. The canopy provided no scope for light and the only thing keeping me from turning insane was this insatiable urge to just 'run'! 'Run, little wolf…run!' Who was it? Whose voice did I keep hearing? That daunting, sardonic voice that kept running through my mind on repeat despite me not wanting to hear it. It was scary, that voice, and yet, I had no idea why I was scared of it. I had woken up in the middle of these dark woods, with no idea what time it was or how I even reached there. All I could remember was fire and smoke and screams…so many painful screams that made a shiver of fear run down my spine. Something had happened to my pack…something terrible…and yet, I couldn't remember wha
Lilac's P.O.V: "She's a fucking child, Luca!" The sudden roar of a sound startled me into consciousness, making my heart thrash against my ribcage at an alarming rate. Where was I? What was going on? I felt too weak to get up; my hands and legs felt like they were made out of lead. My head my throbbing in pain and I couldn't feel my legs from the waist down. It made the fear in my chest grow even stronger, especially when I heard even more shouting. "You said she was your mate, didn't you? Why does it matter how old she is? Do you even realize how incredibly lucky you are to have even found her?" "I can't believe you're saying this! Did you even look at her?" The words stung, even though I didn't know who it was that spoke them. I was lying in a completely white room, on a large hospital bed hooked to several monitors. With the curtains drawn all around the room, I couldn't tell if it was day or night or if I
Lilac's P.O.V: Who knew 'being put on a pedestal' could take on a whole new meaning when it was done in a menacing way? I thought I could finally get some rest; a few minutes of peace and quiet, some time alone to moan the loss of my parents and my entire pack. But instead, here I was, being presented to an entire pack like I was some kind of criminal…or a slave, as a man who looked double my age, held me by my forearm roughly and dragged me to the centre of the stage where the Alpha, the man who was my mate, stood tall and strong, in an expensive looking suit and his long hair tied back in a ponytail at his back. He gave me a bone-chilling look as I came to stand next to him, his instruction looking clear even though he hadn't said a word. 'Stay quiet.' His look spoke loud and clear. It was an unspoken rejection right from the start. The Alpha of this pack…my mate…he didn't want me here. In fact, he was betting on this vote for me to get thrown out
Lilac's P.O.V: 4 Years Later: My back slammed against the wall hard enough to make my bones rattle, but before I could recover from the shock of it, one of the girls grabbed onto my hair and yanked my head back so that I was looking directly into her pale green eyes. "Listen little fucker!" Serena Stonewater spat at me, her perfectly manicured razor nails digging into my scalp to cause me even more pain. "You think we're going to tolerate you and your shenanigans just because the Beta shows you pity? You're nothing but a little rat that got thrown out into the gutters by her own family." A growl threatened to escape my lips but I clenched my jaws together, refusing to give Serena or any of her slut-squad the satisfaction of seeing me rattled. "Whoa…" Another one of her squad-mates, Aisha Smith gave a surprised laugh as she pointed her manicured fingers at me. "Look at her face. If looks could kill, bitch would have turned
Lilac's P.O.V: The tension in the atmosphere was thick as people around him noticed who he was looking at and tried to distract him. It didn't take much effort though. Alpha Krimson was the only man in his mid-thirties in the pack without a mate, which meant that he was a certified hoe for any and every vagina that was available. Only, he didn't do high school girls, which was why, Serena and her slut-squad were fanning their pheromones his way as best they could. "Do the guys not own shirts?" Dani whispered under her breath, still looking away. She was a submissive wolf, a lot lower in dominance and the kind that didn't do well near high ranking wolves, especially Alphas. She was also super shy, so she preferred to keep her head down even though nudity wasn't a big deal to werewolves as the transition from our wolf form to human form left us naked. From what I could tell, the entire upper ranking wolves had just come back from their trekking up
Lilac's P.O.V "I hate this," Dani huffed, sitting next to me as she shuffled through the pages of her own assignment. "What is wrong with Serena and her slut squad!" "I dare you to call them that at their faces." I told her, stretching my arms above my head to take a break from writing the same things twice. "You know I can't," Dani gave me a puppy-eyed look. "I'll be scared to death and probably pass out before I could even approach them." "Good, you don't have to worry, I'm done." I showed her the finished assignment. "Already?" Dani's big brown eyes got even bigger as she stared at the papers and then back up at me. "Did you stay up all night for this?" "Nope." I shook my head, giving her a grin. "I had a backup plan, one that I had been using for years without her noticing." "Okay…spill." Dani folded her arms across her chest as we
