Nova’s POVMy legs felt heavy as I ran through the woods. My head spins and the ache resonates through my whole body. I try to steady my breath, but it’s hard.I felt exhausted and drained, yet my legs didn’t stop running. The trees blurred, and my thought fuzzed.I didn’t know what was happening to me. I’ve never felt so powerful yet drained, almost like I had just fought a battle that has absorbed the energy out of me.My whole body felt foreign to me. I paused, placing a hand on my head, as the striking pain got immense. I tried to reach and connect with my wolf but couldn't; the mere effort to get to her caused pain."Ahh,” I growled in pain.“What is happening to me?” I cried out in pain, falling to the rock as I tried to catch my breath. I tried to remember what had happened to me, but those blue orbs that I couldn’t point out came back to me.They haunted my head like a living nightmare.“Ahh..” I snarled, falling to my needs as images kept flashing through my head.It feels l
Nova’s POVI rubbed on the spot Alexandra had marked me with a blush creeping on my cheek. My reflection in the mirror made me look and feel different.I felt complete and labeled. I bit on my lower lip memories of how he had claimed me came rushing down to me like a wave of nostalgia.Before reality dawned on me, knowing that I was a threat to him now had my slight smile fall, replaced with a sad expression. I didn’t understand my powers; I am not sure I understood what Damien had explained to me two days ago, but it was nothing different from what Claus and Jessica had warned me about.But then, the fact that I had broken the curse made me feel accomplished. I sniffled on my bare skin, Alexandra’s warm smell hutting my nostrils.I sucked in a breath. My smell and his mixed together felt like comfort, comfort from the storm brewing within me. I missed him so much, and part of me wanted to run back to him and have his protective hands encircled around me. But I knew better than to
Alexandra’s POVDays, weeks, and now a month. It’s been a month since I last set my eyes on my mate. Her absence was slowly eating me up, and it angers me that I couldn’t find her.I’ve tried and done every possible way to get to her yet no avail. I have set my pack members to search every hook and brick but still no news.My office door slipped open, and my sister was walking in with a concerned look, or piety rather, that only enrages me.I hated being stuck in a position like this.I sneered, “What are you doing here?” I questioned dropping the pen, which I had barely finished signing the loads of files ahead of me.“This is no way to welcome your little sister now, is it?” She responds, taking a seat.I scoffed. “What do you want, Elena?”She sighed, “Mum asked me to come help you out with—“I cut her off. “Save yourself the trouble; I don’t need—““You need to stop worrying; we have our men searching for her, and I am sure that wherever she is, she is doing just fine.” Her words
Nova’s POV “Mummy” Lily ran to me in surprise and excitement. The guilt within me gnawed as she fell into my arms. It felt new to me. It's been months since I last came to visit. Amelia isn’t picking up my calls or replying to my text messages. I know I’ve messed up a lot, but it didn’t warrant the way I was being treated. Damien doesn’t know about my visit here. He’s been keeping track of me, for my safety, I presume, but there was something deep down that just didn’t feel right. Alexandra still hasn’t come for me; the media has it that he has expanded his company and is now beating New York’s too-billionaire A list. He has only ever been bothered about his work; what more should I have expected? My training is getting better; I can now communicate more with my wolf and dig through my mind. I am still working on my healing abilities; I am learning to heal other wolves. It is easier for me to heal than to heal others. “How are you doing, my darling?” I say running kisses aro
Nova’s POV I don’t trust Di Mario any of them; they are a whole bunch of liars and deceivers. I still couldn’t believe Karen was using Lily as the bait. She wanted her son’s happiness over mine, and it just didn’t sit well with me. I wanted to be with Alexandra, but the fact that he had used me for his gain still lingered. He is more devious than I thought. He made me believe I was doing him a favor; what if he was going to execute me as he did with Damien’s parents? “You are putting yourself in danger, Nova,” Damien blasted, his veins popping out. “After how far we’ve come, you’re going to give it all up on Alex again? When will you open your eyes and see the truth? It is right in front of you for Godsake. What is the matter with you? They are going to kill you—“ he fires yet again. I growled, “And you don’t think that I know! I fucking know, but I have to go back to him. I have to not unless I have the upper hand, but they have something against me.” His brows knitted. “
Nova’s POVHe pulls out just as I am about to finish up earning a growl to which he smirks.He walked us to the bed carefully placing me down like I was some artifact that needed handling with care.“How did you survive without me?” He asks.I said nothing not sure how to respond different thoughts running through my head on how to blurt out my anger and frustration they were at the tip of my tongue, yet I couldn’t utter a word.*Speak to me, princess. Don’t ignore me* his husky voice came to my head making me chew on my bottom lip to fight back the moan that was threatening to slip.I was dying for a release and he knew how much I wanted to but he was playing dirty.“Let go of me, Alex—“ My words died down when he began to trail kisses from on my thigh while lifting my dress.“Do you have any idea how hard it was for me to stay away for that long?” He grunts biting on my skin, a mix of pain and pleasure shooting through my nerves.He lifted his head claiming my lips before I could r
Nova’s POVI stir on the bed as my eyes spring open, the morning sunlight interrupting my peaceful sleep, one that I haven’t had for a long time.My muscles felt relaxed and I felt renewed and energized almost like I was high on energy drinks.His subtle smell hit my nostrils making my cheeks heat up as memories of last night came flashing back like a wave of nostalgia.I bit on my bottom lip as reality dawned on me. I couldn’t trust him, I refused to let my emotions get the better of me. I felt conflicted. Was Alexandra using me? Is he going to execute me? How much danger and harm could I cause to him and his pack?A lone tear slipped from my eyes. I was only here for Lily’s safety. If Alexandra finds out about her, he’d take her away from me and his mum would stop at nothing to see to that.He did deserve to know about Lily. Lily was a beautiful mistake that I had accepted when I found out about my pregnancy.It was supposed to be a one-night fling but I ended up pregnant, now I f
Nova’s POV “You killed Jenifer Ale—“ My words died down in my throat as he shot me a horrifying look. Fear crawled within my spike as his eyes changed his wolf craving for control. There was something about the way he gazed at me; it made me want to pee in my pants. His nose flared, and turning away, he cursed under his breath, rubbing his temples. “Jenifer wanted me to take her life,” he announced, turning back to me, trying to compose himself. I was left confused for a split second. Why would Jennifer want him to kill her? “She was under Damien's pressure. Her parents worked under his parents; they were loyal to them. Jenifer’s parents sold her to Damien’s parents. She was a sex slave for not only Damien but his father as well,” he paused. “Jenifer wasn’t my mate. But to save her was the only way to pretend I was mated to her. She was supposed to leave the next day after our mating ceremony.” He paused yet again, his eyes falling. I could see the sadness in his eyes behi

Lily’s POV I walked into school, still feeling the lingering effects of my heated argument with Noah last night. I hiss at the thought. He had no right to do what he did or say that. I was still fuming about it. I didn't understand why Noah couldn't just leave me alone. He doesn’t want me. He made that clear, so what the hell does he want with me? As I walked down the hallway, I bumped into Tiffany. Oh no! Not today. I wasn’t in the mood for her nonsense, but Tiffany never got the message. She was standing with her squad, looking like she owned the place. "Well, well, well, look what we have here," Tiffany said, raising an eyebrow at me. "If it isn't little Lily, the housemaid." I felt a surge of annoyance at her tone, but I tried to ignore her. ", Tiffany, please, not today. I am not in the mood for this. I tried to walk past her, but she restricted my movement. I groaned. Tiffany wasn't having it. "Listen, Lily, I need to warn you," she said, her voice d
Lily’s POV I walked to the section of the house where Noah lived, feeling uneasy. I had agreed to tutor him, but I wasn't sure if I was ready for this. If I had a choice, I’d be in my room cuddled up and reading one of Catherina Maura’s books, daydreaming about my prince charming. Yet here I was, trapped with a godforsaken arsehole that didn’t deserve my time. As I approached the door, I expected to hear a few noises, yet the place sounded like a cemetery, almost like there was no living creature, but I could pick up Noah’s scent. I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. The door opened shortly, and I was graced with the sight of Noah standing before me, shirtless and wearing only a pair of sweatpants. I felt my eyes widen as I took in the sight of his chiseled chest and abs. I couldn't help but stare. Noah raised an eyebrow, a smirk spreading across his face. "You like what you see?" he asked, his voice low and husky. I felt my face heat up with embarrassment, and I q
Lily’s POV. As the class came to an end, I packed up my things and prepared to leave. But just as I was about to walk out the door, the teacher, Mr. Johnson, called out to me and Noah. "Lily, Noah, can I have a word with you both?" he asked his voice firm but friendly. My heart dropped, wondering if I was in trouble or something. I am trying to get through my senior year with no troubles, and a teacher has never stopped me after class. It made me wonder what I did this time. I turned to Noah, wondering what this was about. Noah raised an eyebrow, looking just as curious as I was. We walked over to Mr. Johnson's desk, and he looked at us both with a serious expression. "Noah, I've been looking over your grades, and I have to say, I'm a little disappointed," he said. "You're not performing as well as I know you can." Noah looked down, his eyes avoiding Mr. Johnson's. "Sorry, sir," he muttered. Mr. Johnson nodded. "I know you can do better, Noah. And that's why I'm assigning you
Lily’s POV I walked out of the school building, my eyes falling on Asher waiting for me by his car. "Hey there," he said, smiling. "I'm here to take you home." I raised an eyebrow, feeling a little surprised. "Thanks, Asher," I said, getting into the car. "I didn't expect you to offer me a ride. And it’s fine; let me save you the trouble... I can walk myself home." Asher shrugged, starting the engine. "I figured you might need a ride, and yes, I don’t find it as troublesome dropping a beautiful wolf home," he said. "Plus, I wanted to talk to you about something." My eyes narrowed at him suspiciously. “Am I safe?” He chuckles, “C’mon, let’s get going, princess.” I settled into the car; he shut the door, walking to his side. "So, Lily, have you made any wolf friends?" he asked, glancing at me sideways. I shake my head, “Nope, they seem to be hard to find… a lot harder than I thought” He chuckles, “We’re very few,” he responds. “I can see,” I respond with a nod. Asher nodded
Lily’s POVI walked into the gym class, feeling a sense of dread. The gym has always been my least favorite activity in school.I don’t know about this school, but back home I never miss a chance to ditch school.The news of being Noah’s family maid had circulated real fast, like wildfire, even though I was less bothered; it didn’t feel good being known around here.Especially now that I am a prime target. As I changed into my gym clothes, I could feel the queen bee and her friends staring at me. They were whispering and giggling, and I knew I was in for a long class.“Hey!”Anna greets as she adjusts her hair.“Hey! You look ready for the gym " I complimented seeing as how she looked a little bit too excited.“Well, what can I say?” she giggled.The teacher blew her whistle, and we all gathered around her. "Today, we're going to play dodgeball," she announced, handing out the balls.The queen bee and her minions snickered and whispered to each other, casting dirty glances my way. I
Lily’s POVI woke up feeling refreshed and relaxed. It was the weekend, which meant no school for the next two days. I was looking forward to sleeping in, watching movies, and maybe going for a run or something.Anything to keep me busy.As I rolled out of bed, my phone buzzed with an incoming call from my mom. I smiled, feeling a surge of excitement. I hadn't talked to my mom in a while; it made me miss our usual conversations, which had to do with mostly my rants or sometimes Mom’s.We had a relationship that was beyond a mother-and-daughter bond; we were almost like besties. I was eager to catch up.I slid the answer button.“Hey Mum,” I greet the excitement rolling off my tongue.Our conversation carried on mostly on how Seattle has been treating me.And honestly, without Maya, Adam, and Anna, I’ll probably be packing my bags back home.They make Seattle less, well… what’s the word again? You know what? I am sure you know what I mean.As we talked, I got dressed in a comfy bump
Lily’s POV I kept turning and tossing but still couldn’t get the good sleep I had imagined myself to get after a long day in school. The whole feeling of moving and what had happened lately kept my mind busy with different thoughts. I was left uneasy. Finally puffing out a sigh in frustration, I got up, deciding to clear my head out, probably in the woods. I miss going on our night runs with Dad, even though I still haven’t got my wolf blooming; I ride on him. As I stepped out, the cold air hit my skin, making me feel the chills run down my spine. The moon was full overhead, casting an eerie glow over the trees. As I walked further into it, I knew I was getting a little too far, but my curiosity kept pushing me to walk further. For a moment there, I felt like I was the only one on earth. The silence was serene. My heart dropped as I sighted a group of wolves, their eyes burly and big, looking at me like their prey, which I was. Fuck! Rogues! Shit! *Stop her.* I ran as
