NeerahRayah had taken her mom to the hospital. She wasn't even close by. So what I did was return to the blasted room fully intending to force him to let Me help. Or at least, we should go to the hospital.When I returned, he was gone. He left a note for me though. And it merely saysSomething came up. I'll be back soon. Oh, don't cover your neck. It will heal faster that way, okay?That's what he said. I am quite angry at the fact that everything about meeting Cuan, living here and what is happening to me right now is so messed up! I haven't gotten anything right since I got here. I keep telling myself what I should do but it never changes. I thought that what I was doing all these while is surviving a world I didn't even choose to be in.Yet it all comes down to one thing. My feelings are messed up so no matter what may come, I feel messed up. I touched my neck subconsciously and instantly felt a tingling sensation that reminded me of that moment not so long ago.What the hec
NeerahIt's amazing how a little motivation works. Ruby was so helpful that I started to see some things I didn't want to consider before. If Rayah was his mate, was there any good reas9n for a stranger to just help you out of s7ch a situation? Would my proud father have relented?Come to think of it, if we weren't mates, why would he care? Why would your pain matter so much to a stranger? Maybe he loved Rayah before we met. Maybe, she was all he cared about. I can see that he is attracted to me. Yet he was always kind of holding back. Then he thought that Princet9n was interested in me and he used the opportunity yesterday to make sure that everyone unsure about our relationship is so certain now. The way they revere their Alpha, I think it is safe to say that I won't be having any open admirers for a very long time at least.But since the school has other people coming from other packs, who knows? Well, this is just my inner ramblings. The situation now is that none of my prev
Neerah“it felt so real…” I state, repeating my words dully. “It is just a dream” he murmurs. I don't know why, but today, I just feel sleepy. It was warm, secure, and so incredibly peaceful. So I slept.The next morning, I was surprised to open my eyes to the vision of his face right next to mine. His hands still held me protectively but we were both lying down. I smiled to myself because it felt so normal. I had to think about what it would be like to sleep together, wake up in his arms…“I only stayed because I thought you would wake up crying again” he projected his thoughts to me and I smiled with a gasp involuntarily because it felt so special. I am so loving this…‘don't hold your breath. I forgive you” I return.He opens his eyes and stares at me. I stare back, marveling at the rings in his irises. Rings of different shades of silver. Maybe because the room is dark. But I can see the magnetic quality of his eyes bore through me. I am slowly starting to be aware of the weigh
Neerah“Well, I am not” I refuse. I can't go over the same endless hope and then I will still end up as ordinary Neerah again. It will hurt more and I just can't do it.He touched my face and smiled a little “you! Don't worry about it. I will always have your back regardless of whether you shift or not okay?” He assures.“Yeah okay” I return with a small frown because my mood is shifting again and I am starting to feel depressed. Yet I still want to know who hurt him with Wildsilver..“So, who used Wildsilver to hurt you?” I ask curiously.“A Lycan from Alpha Daren's pack” he replies. I am shocked he didn't evade the answering. Feeling empowered, I ask further “a Lycan? Why does he have Lycans? Aren't they a different breed from werewolves?” I ask.“Someone is funding him and he is carrying out gruesome experiments on his pack grounds. But because trespassing is prohibited in our lands, what he does in his own land is his cup of tea. But times are changing. The Lycans would honestly r
CHAPTER ONE: AN OLD TRADITIONNeerahIt's a large grass field that develops into a dense forest from the south-eastern side of it. The wind blows freely, missing the tension in the atmosphere. It felt like the elements were mocking me today. Ughh…It was a bright sunny day, and now that night rolls by, the stars shine just as brightly in the sky. It's a terrible day for me. One that would decide the next phase of my life.Yes. I know. It sucks to be me but can things not look so freaking cheerful!I am turning eighteen today.Maria, my stepmother would always have loaded words to share.“you will either win or
ALPHA CUAN“Are we going to attend Alpha Knight Riordon's awakening party for his daughter?” Chase, my Beta, asks me just as I relax into the sleek custom made leather seat of my car.“Yes. We should make haste” I commanded.Chase, who has his head by the window nods curtly before going over to his own car to give out instructions.We just returned from a month-long business trip. It was very hectic trying to sign a deal with Nickolas Alfredo. He was such a bastard too. But I like hard working bastards. So there. I am not complaining.I swipe at the screen of my phone, stopping just for a moment to admire Raya's beautiful smile.
NEERAH’S POVI stare blankly at the closed door of our attic. It smells murky like and they forgot to switch on the lights after they had me cuffed.Maria had just left. But even she forgot to switch on the lights. But what she did not forget to do is leave behind a sharp razor blade.She looked at me with a cynical twist of her mouth and she had dropped the warning subtly.“Your father is not a kind man” and she is gone.I stared at the razorblade and smiled a little. I want to let it all go. The angst, the fear, the hopelessness… I am tired of feeling too much for nothing. Nothing will ever Improve.I want to forgi
ALPHA CUAN“Do you think it is true? The wolf cry?” Chase asks curiously.We are driving over to the Lunar Moon pack house towards dawn because I couldn’t wait a moment longer. I fear that Neerah could be in danger. I don’t trust the people around her and everything is so messed up.“The elders have too many tales” I reply curtly. I don’t like worrying about matters that did not even happen. “I was told that strong Alphas would enter a temporary state of peak strength and no one could afford to fight them..” he paused, as if deliberating on which information to reminisce about. “They enter into a perfect harmony with their wolves, reaching a height of dominion others could only dream of…” he goes on to say, pausing as if to prompt a reply out of me. I ignored him still. “It always starts with their eyes. It changes from their original color to red. And for once, the human form embraces the wolf without turning. It is supposed to be fascinating” Chase is being weird again. “The onl
