Krimson's P.O.V "Alpha Krimson?" Elijah tried to give me a nervous smile, but I caught a hold of his neck and held him above the ground, my claws slicing out to dig into the tender flesh of his neck. "Don't even try to find excuses." I spat at him before using all my strength to throw him across the room. He fell onto the coffee table and I had the satisfaction of watching the glass shatter as he went down on top of it, embedding the shards onto his back. His cry for help did little to appease the rage within me. The sight of blood on the floor did little to comfort the beast that wanted to rip into his chest until I was hold his beating heart in my hands…watching his eyes widen in horror as I ripped the organ out of his chest cavity. "You'll be locked up in the cellar," I told him through gritted teeth. "And you will be held in trial at the Supernatural Council. I'll ask every single person in your pack if I have to, but I wil
Lilac's P.O.V "You're being awfully quiet." Dani took a seat beside me at the cafeteria. "Are you sure you're ok?" I looked up at her through my lashes from where I had my head down on the table. All I could do was give her a small nod before closing my eyes once again, ignoring the chatter all around me. Everyone knew about me spilling drinks onto Alpha Elijah…no one knew what happened after. How my world had tipped off its axis and everything had just came crashing down around me… I don't know who gave them the orders or told them to keep shut, but even Kaleb and Hoji have been awfully quiet and have been avoiding me since this morning. "Lily?" Dani placed her hand on my shoulders comfortingly, but I just didn't have the strength to shrug her off. I loved Dani, I really did. She was my biggest support inside the pack, my best friend…but at this moment, all I wanted was to be left alone. I had had a tiring day…a tiring
Lilac's P.O.V Panting, gasping and exhausted, I plopped down onto an empty patch of grass devoid of flyaway plastic cups and other debris, trying my best to catch my breath after having the best time of my life. "Never. Again." Dani said from beside me, covering her mouth with her hands like she was about to throw up. "Eww! Don't throw up here! Go to the washroom." I told her half-heartedly. But at that moment, my heart was too full, too contented. And I couldn't believe it was because of riding the rollercoaster for the first time! "Ugh!" Dani groaned, placing her hand in front of her mouth. "I think I'm gonna…" She was up and running for the nearest bin to empty her guts of all the cotton candy and corn dogs she's had since arriving at the fair this afternoon. I don't know if it was out of concern or if Liam asked him to, but Tawin went after Dani to make sure she was alright, just as Liam plopped down
Krimson's P.O.V My hands tightened on the steering wheel as I saw Liam and Lilac coming out of the fair ground together hand in hand as they walked back to Liam's car with Tawin in the lead. I was acting on impulse, like a fool. Why did come all the way here? Why did I decide to follow the GPS in Liam's car once I found out that he had cut classes with Lilac? Why was I still here now that I had ascertained that she was doing alright? It didn't make any sense. Nothing that I had been doing for the past month has been making any sense to me. Both Elijah and Luca seem to have been right. Whenever it came to Lilac, my judgment was always cloudy. There was always a war raging on between my mind and my heart. Between my wolf and the part of me that was still human. I thought there was no humanity left in me. After everything that I had been though because of Dawn Wood…but the more I stayed near Lilac, the more it's becoming to stay away. Yes, w
Lilac's P.O.V I stared up at the wooden ceiling of my tiny room, watching the cobwebs accumulate and dust get stuck to the web. I was supposed to keep my room clean, but with my graduation just round the corner…I just couldn't find it in me to give a flying fuck about this place anymore. The night was chilly even though it was supposed to be mid-summer, but I couldn't find it in me to get to sleep. I felt too restless…too uneasy. Sitting up in bed, l looked around the room with a sigh. It was a tiny place with a tiny bed, a closet and a book shelf. Just enough so I could have some privacy. I had an even tinier bathroom attached to the room but there was hardly any space there to even turn around. Still, at least I didn't have to share a bathroom with the other staff in the building. It not like I was close to anyone here in the first place. Four years and still, I had absolutely no bonds with the other pack members that would allow me to mind link the othe
Lilac's P.O.V It felt like being struck by lightning. Every nerve ending in my body came to roaring life as soon as Krimson's lips touched mine. His lips were unexpectedly soft on top of mine, and just as deliciously rough as he pressed down on me hard, his tongue running along my lower lip in a sensual rhythm that had me gasping. My mind was completely clouded as he entered his tongue into my mouth, feeling around just a little, making sure I was comfortable. At first, I was too stunned to react, but when I felt him retreating, I acted on impulse, reaching out with my tongue to touch his, wondering what to do next. Turns out I didn't have to worry about it, because the next instant, Krimson's tongue was back inside my mouth, playing over mine, urging me to play with him. I reached out with my hands to push back the hair from his face, resting my hands on his nape as I kissed him back with just as much fury. Krimson's hand travelled down to my side,
Lilac's P.O.V "So what's up between you and Mr. Popular?" Dani wiggled her eyebrows at me as we found an empty seat at the cafeteria. "The two of you seemed pretty comfy with each other yesterday…" Yesterday? Was it only just yesterday that Liam and the three of us went to the Fair? Why did it feel like an eternity ago? "Liam and I agreed to be friends." I told her, my lips curving into the tiniest of smiles. "I guess." "You guess? Friends?" Dani sighed. "It looked like he was ready to take you out on a date already." "Liam?" I felt my eyes widen in surprise. "God no! Like you said, he's pretty popular. He can date anyone he wants. Why would he choose me?" "Well, for starters, because you're gorgeous!" Dani said it like she was stating the obvious. "And just because you-know-who is biased towards you, doesn't mean every single man in the pack has turned bli
Lilac's P.O.V Later that day, I was the first person to hand over my assignment, which wasn't all that surprising. But what didn't sit right with me was the dirty looks I got from my classmates who had yet to complete their work. "Alright, I'll give you all till noon tomorrow to turn in your assignment. Failure to do that would leave me with no other than to have you all in detention," the teacher said now. Judging from the look on her face and the tone of her voice, I knew that she was angry because this assignment was due today. I had earlier gone to submit the assignment to the teacher's office, just so I didn't get these looks of hatred from my classmates, but she had refused, saying I should wait for the day of submission. "Only Lilac has turned in her assignment on time as usual, so my dear, I commend you for that." she said, smiling at me. I felt embarrassed because I knew she was trying to set an example and I wouldn't be surprised if all eyes were
