CLEO. “What do you mean the Alpha can’t have lunch with me?” I ask angrily, my eyes snapping over to the Omega who bows her head in front of me. I tap the edge of my seat impatiently, my voice hard. “I am sorry, but the Alpha is currently at a meeting with the council.” “What of Alpha Logan?” I ask. “He’s also currently busy as well.” I roll my eyes at her, before gesturing for her to leave; her apologies are starting to make me sick. Oh just fucking great, well it seems like I will have to postpone my plans, but it seems like that Alpha does not look interested in me. I grit my teeth together; He needs to be interested in me for my plan to work. Who won’t be interested in me? Yesterday, I already bid goodbye to my father, he is an Alpha, and he has a pack to keep away from my playboy brothers’ hands. I sigh, my hands stroking the necklace that dangles between my chest, the book I took from the treasure room still sits on the reading table, it’s not yet time to open it, it belon
ZEKE.I am sitting in my office, still mulling about my present state of life, the window stares back at me, a can of beer sits on the table, but right now, it’s as though I don’t itch for that.My body itch for something- or rather someone, someone whose mouth is too sharp, someone who I dream about every fucking day.The room feels chilling, and for a minute I look around, maybe expecting to see her, what a fool I am.The door chimes open and Gus walks in with a stack of folders, he places them on the table with a thud. “Here.”My head is throbbing hard. “Do I really have to stamp all this?” I am annoyed. “Can’t Logan do all this? Besides, where is Logan?”Gus scratches his head, his face morphed into an apologetic smile. “I have no idea, but presently, he’s as swamped as you are.”I sigh, staring at the papers that lined up the table. Now everything just feels so hard, with the present threat of the pack, the council’s constant complaining and finally, Astrid.I just want to forget
ASTRID.I don’t know the first reaction I am supposed to get, but anger is one of them. I am right there, watching as she moves her arm along his. My mate, she has no right.I clench my fists together, suddenly feeling like an idiot. I never liked the Blue moon day, I just always read books till midnight with my mother, and today, I was planning to do that with Juniper and Gus, turns out we have become really close these past few days.But then, Mrs. Perry orders me around to come here, and now. Here I am, staring at them from the window, my mind mirroring around different thoughts. His eyes moved around and when they met mine from the outline of the window.Electricity cackles through my spine, dark and strong, I would have looked away, but I keep my eyes focused, anger still brewing through me. A fucking Alpha does not look away.From the outline of the window, Cleo releases herself from him, what’s she truly doing? She brushes past him and steps into the room, her familiar scent hi
ZEKE.I wake up yearning for more. Last night’s memories again replay in my mind. Fuck.Her lips, her taste, her smell, it’s haunting my mind. I want every single bit of her. I stare at her sleeping figure, her fluttered eyebrows, and her lips. Goodness. Those gorgeous lips.For the first time, I don’t have those vivid dreams, nothing came, everything just felt so normal.I want to crouch beside her and inhale her scent all day long, I want to stay beside her every fucking time. She’s doing something to me.“You deserve it all.” I mutter, before finally wanting lying beside her when I heard a knock, irritation shoots through me.“Who is it?” I bark, but there’s silence at the other end, I hear fisted knuckles. “Happy morning to you too, brother. Get your ass to the meeting room, you are not only going to happy if you see this.” Logan’s voice shoots through me, and I stand up.I want to stay beside her, but I can’t do that now. I throw away the sheets away from my body, before standin
ASTRID.I have never woken up so well before, the sheet smells exactly like him, the room reminds me of him again and his words last night, and just by replaying all of that makes me blush heavily.There are fresh new sets of clothes hanging beside the bed. Did he really do all of this for me? I smile, after my morning routine, and packing my hair into a bun. I creep out of the room, the disappointment of his absence pangs me so much, even though I know that I am not supposed to be affected.But, why does it hurt?He could be anywhere. I sighed, but then I remembered. What am I doing? This was never the plan, never ever the plan.My true plan was to take back my pack, but he’s diverting me away from my plan. An Omega walks over to me, and I wonder if Mrs. Perry is already searching the whole-pack house for me.“Madam Yv has called you to her dining room.” The Omega says, before turning to lead me to the room that Madam Yv is staying in, when I step in. I see Juniper and Diva already s
ASTRID.He saddled the horse and soon we were galloping on the horses.Did he really just suggest riding? I grabbed the white horse’s reins tightly, feeling the wind rush to my face as we galloped faster into the forest.The black horse is faster- Goliath, running wild, Zeke seems to be in control, his hands fastening around the reins. I stare at him, since he’s in front, and I can’t help thinking. How can someone be so perfect?“Clear your mind.” He yells, tapping the reins faster.Maximus, the white horse runs faster now, he’s right, my mind is clearing, just by thinking of the way Mrs. Perry talked to me, or how everyone treats me like trash makes me gallop into the forest.Soon, we stop, and I descend from the horse, there’s a layer of sweat forming on my forehead, and I wipe it away, my chest heaved from the run, just exactly what I needed.Zeke appears from behind, he stares around the huge trees and I do the same. “I come here often.” He says, but I don’t even know he’s talking
LOGAN.It’s hard to be in the dark and still watch over someone, just stare and wonder if they are doing alright, because if you don’t. You feel sick to your stomach. Are they hurt? You will think. Do they need me now? You will wonder, but then you will know that they are doing fine without you, they don’t even need you, so why am I caring about her? Even though I try to push it away, Astrid still comes back to my memory.What I am doing is so wrong, worrying about my twin's brother mate. But I can't help it, damn….I sighed, propping the can open.Beer was always a way to escape my darkness. My head relaxed on the recliner in my room, I kept my gaze on the wall, staring at the dark green paint plastered on the wall, and maybe soon enough, I will go to bed, even though it’s still early in the afternoon. All the things happening are starting to make me a little bit sick. Gus and my brother are already handling it, but I have to do something.I don’t even want to be the lonely one, Mam
GUS.I am in my office, staring at the latest letter my mother sent me, it’s attached with photos of her vacation, I wouldn’t actually call it a vacation, because she likes to travel around, when my father died in the war, for a while, she fell into a pothole of depression, but then she decided she just wanted to travel around, and I supported her, because that's what make her happy.Her face is all smiles angled from the shining sun in Mexico, she wore her signature sunglasses, in the letter, she wrote ‘love you, son.’ I love you too, mama. I wonder when she will come back to this pack; it’s been three years since I last saw her. Though, she mind-links with me.I push the papers aside, making a mental note to write back to her as soon as possible. I shifted in my seat, papers sprawled around the table. I have been working, taking down notes, but still. Something doesn't feel right.I sighed, I could use some water, but I have to keep working. The door creaks open, and I tap my pen im
Thank you for following me throughout Astrid and Zeke’s story, they finally got their happy ever after! Though I am not sure whether to write about Leora and Hendrix’s story, they had a wild start throughout the story, if you want to hear about their story, you can do well to let me know in the comments and I will consider the possiblity of a sequel about Leor, Leora and Hendrix when they are all grown up.Please check out my other werewolf romance book, ‘Fated To Her Ruthless Alpha,’ and I promise you won’t be disappointed. Love,Rae-Rae.
LEORA.Age-16It’s been ten years since I last saw him. It’s funny how time flies so fast, one time I was just a little girl with a loving brother and a best-friend and now, I am getting ready to receive my acceptance letter into the academy.My family, especially my overprotective brother, Leor doesn’t want me searching for Hendrix; they say the past is all in the past. But, I need to see him; I need to see the ten year old boy who saved the six year old me. It’s like every time I close my eyes, I am transported back to that day, the contempt in his eyes when he looked at me was unmatched. My family killed his mother because they were trying to protect me, but every day I am secretly searching for him. I still wear the ruby necklace everywhere, anytime I rub the edges, it reminds me of him.How does he look now? How does he act? Will he still remember me? Does he still hate me? I will keep trying to search for him and when I see him, there’s countless things I want to say to him
ASTRID.I watch with widened eyes as Freya turns, but Zeke is gliding the knife into her back. She lets out a tortured scream, falling to her knees as blood gathers around her dark dress.My daughter is right here, safe with me. Hendrix yells loudly, rushing towards his mother, we all stare as he crouches to her level and cup her chin.“Mother?” He says fearfully, “Mother, you are bleeding. We have to get you to the hospital, please now. Mother, you can’t leave me.”“My sweet Hendrix, they took everything away from us. They killed me, they are the enemy, revenge my death.” She closes her eyes slowly, and Hendrix yells painfully, his hands covered in her blood.Freya is on the floor, unmoving. We did it, we killed her, and now, she won’t hurt anybody again.Slowly, Hendrix rises to his knees. “You killed her,” He mumbles darkly, “You killed my mother! I won’t let you get away with this, never.”It breaks my heart to say this, but I have to. “Arrest him.” I turn towards the guard, it’s
ZEKE.I am already barging out of the door.I have a son.I have a daughter.I have children, and I never knew about them for seven fucking years, that’s a lot of gap. I am a father, the more I say it out loud, the more it gets harder to believe. And now my daughter is missing.Preston follows behind us, and Astrid is beside me. I can’t even bring myself to look at her, but for now. I have to make sure my daughter is safe.“What’s going on in the hall?” I ask Preston as we walk hastily towards the hall.“I don’t know. A woman with dark hair is here and she wants to see you, we already moved everyone to the courtyard including Leor, though he seems very concerned. The woman is waiting for you in the hall.” Preston says.I open the door of the hall and what I see makes my mouth run dry, a woman with dark hair wearing a cocktail dress is nails deep into a man’s chest. I watch, frozen, how she sinks her nails into the person’s chest and squeezes the person’s heart. The person’s body pales
ASTRID.It’s the day. The day where vows are taken, the day that two people choose to love each other, in sickness and in everything. The day that changes everything.The pack-house is bustling with Omegas getting the wedding hall ready, Madam Yv and Gus’ mother are giving instructions for the wine and caviar. I have a feeling that they are going to get pretty drunk today, well I doubt so. This is Diva’s wedding. Everyone has been looking forward to it.Nothing is supposed to ruin the happy day except I had a dream overnight about the wedding, blood, knife stabs, running. It was so blurry to see and then I woke up, not even understanding a thing.“Mommy!” Leora’s sweet voice bounces me out of my thoughts. I look at my daughter who is now running towards me, her pink jittery dress flowing, my baby girl is the flower girl. When she reaches me, her brown hair is pinned in pigtails, her light blue eyes watch me.I am fascinated by the resemblance between her and her father, Zeke. Right, t
LOGAN.If someone told me that being with somebody could spark this much reaction out of me, I would have smacked them right in the face, because I always feel like I can generate happiness by doing lots of things that did not involve mingling with people.But, this sort of happiness...The one that hits so differently, people say love comes in tiny bits, but this love just hits me like a shockwave and now, as I look at Juniper, I know that there’s nobody I will rather spend my life with than this woman over here. “Hey, Logan?” She asks, swinging her hands that are entwined in mine. I don’t like petty things, such as holding hands, but as long as it’s Juni, I don’t really mind. We are walking hand in hand along the sea, earlier; she suggested we go for a walk just to calm ourselves down. “Yes, Juni?” I ask back and she grins, and I swear, this woman can make my heart squeeze just by smiling, she lights up my world. She brings out the sunshine in my darkness. The sky is just beginning
GUS.It’s one thing to open the door and see someone you actually know and the other to open the door to Cleo. What’s she doing here? Is the first question that comes to mind.She never comes here, so why is she here suddenly?I can’t deny the fact that my lips feel dry to the core. “Yes,” My voice comes out lamely as I stretch open the door and watch her step into the villa. I can’t deny the fact that her perfume wafts into my nostrils as she passes by.I lead her to the living room, “You can have a seat. Do you want anything? Coffee? Tea? Biscuits?”She sits down, staring around in wonder, but then her eyes soften, “I am okay, thanks.”I take a seat beside her, trying my best to create distance between us on the couch. She senses this and her face falls. I shouldn’t be doing this, letting her in the house is a red flag. If Zeke walks in right now, he will send her sprawling out, but considering the fact that I am the only here in the house, I should just hear her out.I want closure,
CLEO.Katherine stares out the window, looking dazed, whenever we come to coffee shops, she always picks the seat near the window. One time I tried asking her about it, and her reply shocked me.“Staring out the window at the numerous people passing by is just calming, you see someone walk by, but you don’t know what they are going through, I try to imagine the pain they are carrying about.” She had said.There are two mugs of coffee, barely untouched, and a plate of two grilled turkey sandwiches. Katherine has eaten a part of hers, but mine is untouched. I just don’t feel like eating, maybe because the anticipation that’s curling in the pit of my stomach is enough to make me weak.We are waiting for two more people, they are always late, I don’t know why but it just irks me when people come late.The door chimes and Katherine’s eyes bob towards the entrance, Kai walks in, he’s dressed casually in a t-shirt and sweatpants, he doesn’t bother with the greetings, he just takes the chair
ASTRID.I bite my lips, staring into his darkened blue eyes, I want this so much.“Go down on your knees, baby and take my cock into that gorgeous mouth of yours.” His command runs down my spine and I obey, going down on my knees, I unzip his trousers and take out his cock.Slowly, I slid it down my throat, until I hit the point where my eyes water, I whimper, before falling in length, licking and sucking until I am drenched.“Fuck, baby.” Zeke’s hand digs into my hair and yanks me deeper. “That feels so good,”My body pulses with need, as his groan fills the car, there’s something so powerful in having Zeke Rossi at my mercy, I increase my pace, driving him harder into my mouth, just when I am about to go deeper, he yanks my hair back, pulling me away from him.“You are going to be the end of me,” He mumbles darkly, before pushing me on the leather seat and towering above.“You should have thought of the consequences before putting this dress on tonight,” His hands move to the zipper
