Ezra held both sides of Nina's face, gazing at her. "Are you okay?"She nodded. "I guess so. I think every bond I had with him had been broken."He then placed a soft kiss on her forehead.She lowered her head, smiling at the gesture. "Is it weird that I didn't feel anything about him dying?" She then asked."No baby. I don't expect you to feel. He basically tortured you, and he does not deserve your pity, even in death. I'm just glad that the bond had been broken."She only smiled. "Now that Jake is dead, who do you think will be the new Alpha? He does not have any children, and he is the only child? Or am I wrong?""You aren't, Nina. But let's not concern ourselves with that. The Crimson red pack will sort themselves out." He then kissed her forehead again. "Are you really sure you are okay?" He remembered how devastated his mother was when his father died. It was almost as if she died along with him. He knew that she loved him very much, but he also knew that the mate bond made it
Andrew drove to the Night howlers pack after the confrontation with his father. He could easily see through the man, and he knew that he was scared. If his doings should get out to the public, he knew that he would be totally done for. Not only would he be embarrassed, he would lose his position as the Alpha, and left at the mercy of the people he still owed.After driving for a while, he got to the pack house. Bella sensed his presence, and she came out to meet him. As usual, she hugged and kissed him, before taking her up to her room."Where is Nina?" Andrew asked as he settled in."I don't know. With the Alpha, I guess. You both seem to be getting along now, right?""It's still a little awkward, but yeah. She is very forgiving, and she even seems to be happy to have me around." A smile curved on his lips as he said that."I guess your father would not be getting enough of your disappointment any time soon." She joked, and he chuckled."I guess so too." He then went ahead to narrate
"Who the hell are you?" Daniel asked her, and she jumped in fright. She stared at him as though she was very scared. He wondered who she was and how she got there. For her to be there also meant that she was hiding. Who was she hiding from? "Who are you?" He asked again, this time calmly, but she just shook her head. He walked up to her, and crouched in front of her. She tried to hide her face, but he reached for her chin. She flinched as he touched her, her body slightly trembling. He frowned. "Did someone hurt you?" She shook her head. "What is your name?" "I... I don't remember." He then stood up. "I don't believe you." "Please, please believe me. I really do not remember anything about me." "Who are you hiding from then?" "No one." "Then come out." She sucked in a sharp breath. "I don't want to go out. I don't belong here." "Do you plan to live the rest of your life in this basement?" "I... I have no where else to go." She confessed, staring down at the floor. "I wou
Daniel came back late that night to meet the strange girl lying on the ground, sleeping. She was cold, yet she was uncovered. He felt a little disturbed seeing her that way. He walked up to her, picked her up and placed her on the bed. Then he went to lie on the couch. The next morning, she woke up first only to find herself on the bed. She almost jumped when she saw a man on the couch nearby. It took her a moment before she realized where was, and who she was with. "You are finally awake." He said to her without opening his eyes. So he wasn't sleeping. "Good morning." "Good morning, Cookie." She frowned, before she remembered that she had refused to tell him her name, and he a gave her nickname. "Get yourself ready. We need to see the Luna. I can't be having you sleeping on my bed every night." He then got up. "I will be back soon." She felt nervous about seeing the Luna, but she had no choice. She wanted to be in Daniel's good graces, and perhaps he would protect her. When D
WARNING: TRIGGERING CONTENTDiana spent the next few days mostly hidden in Daniel's room. She thought that it would be a problem, but the Gamma was mostly busy and not around. She also figured that he must had left her there on purpose, because she would not be comfortable staying somewhere else, and she was touched by his observation and concern. Everyone just let her be, including the Luna.As the days passed, she began to relax more in the new place. No one to bully here, overwork her, threaten her, make her do things she did not want to do. She just has to clean out Daniel's room and do his laundry. She even felt like she was doing nothing at all to merit this freedom she had. She didn't discuss her pay with the Luna, but she was not at all bothered. After all, how often was she being paid back in the Braveclaw pack?She had finished all she had to do for the day, and she was laying on the couch, casually enjoying some cookies that Daniel left for her. She then heard a knock that m
~In the Braveclaw's packAlpha Noah and Evanora were seated in the living room, discussing, when two elders casually walked in."Good morning, Alpha. Good morning Luna." They both greeted with a bow.Alpha Noah looked surprised at their sudden appearance. "Is there a problem?" He asked, looking a little bit wary. Anyway these were his pack elders, and they were trusted. There was nothing to be afraid of."Oh, an official meeting was called, requesting that all the elders gather here as soon as possible. I guess others are on their way."Alpha Noah got up angrily. "I didn't call any meeting." No one else would dare call a meeting in the pack house without his permission, right? He looked at his wife, and she looked to be as confused as he was.He was still going to say more, when three more elders entered."All of you, leave now. Whatever meeting was supposed to go on has been cancelled." Alpha Noah declared, still so angry that someone had the guts to call a meeting without his knowle
Alpha Noah and Luna Evanora sat side by side with each other. Evanora placed a hand on his thigh, trying to calm him down. She feared that he would do a lot more damage if he was angry.Everyone sat in a semicircle, with Andrew standing in front. The whole environment went very quiet as they waited for him to speak. He cleared his throat."To the elders of this pack, thank you so much for coming much, even on such short notice. I know that it is very strange for me to call a meeting, and I intend to change that." He then turned to Nina and Ezra. "And to my dear sister and her husband.." Evanora rolled her eyes, and bile rose up her chest at the attention he was paying Nina. "...thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to honour my invitation."Nina smiled, and mouthed a 'thank you', while Ezra gave him a curt nod."To the other representative from the Night howler's pack, thank you for coming. It really means a lot." Daniel and Claire nodded. "And to my special guests, D
Diana stood up slowly, her hands trembling a little. She looked around, and all she saw were people she would not dare show her face to on a normal circumstance. And here she was, about to testify against an Alpha, the Alpha who had terrorized and made her life a living hell. She ran into his hands, trying to get away from some bullies. She had no idea that he was the devil himself. He had stolen her peace, every shred of happiness she had ever known. He was a shadow, crawling under her skin, tormenting her. He was someone she wanted dead.She looked down at her trembling hands, and she balled them into fists. She didn't want to be afraid of him. She just wanted to hate him.She suddenly heard his voice in her head. Of course, she was still a member of his pack, and he could speak into her mind.'Sit back down, little one, and say nothing.' He ordered her.She then stared at him, and she saw him giving her a small nod to sit down."I went to Alpha Noah to report some maids who would n
