Unknown’s POVAs I watched her, something seemed different about her and it felt as though she told him something about me.She now had guards following her around everywhere. She was on constant guard, but I thought nothing of that. Her face always remained the same – a mixture of sadness, fear, hatred, and anger all at once – and she never showed any emotion whatsoever. That suited my purpose just fine.I thought it was pathetic, it was going to need more than guards to stop me from getting what I wanted, but that didn't mean it wouldn't work. There were other things, things that I could do with my abilities, things that would make this plan of mine work out perfectly well. It wouldn't be easy, I'm sure, but everything would eventually fall into place in my favour. The key to everything was right in front of my eyes and if I couldn't have her, no one else would.Even if it meant taking everything else away from her. The guards weren't going to protect her forever. She wasn't even s
Alpha Daniel's POV“You don't belong here” A strange man stopped to tell me on my way back.It was late and my eyes darted around searching to see if there were some other people around.But there was nobody. I didn't know where he came from and why he would speak to me when he knew perfectly well that no one but myself was going to listen. My head snapped back up in confusion.Was he a madman or something? The words 'don't belong here' were not just directed at anyone so what the hell was this guy talking about?“Are you lost, Sir? Do you need any help?” I asked him, trying to be civil. This stranger's behavior made him more terrifying than I originally thought. He had this sort of wild look in his eyes. I wasn't sure why but it scared me. I looked away quickly.My heart started beating rapidly as I felt the ground vibrating with his heavy footsteps approaching me.Then he stopped and burst into laughter. “You are funny. You have no idea who I am. I have no desire to scare you, thoug
Alpha Alexis POVI didn't know what I was thinking when I asked Aurora to walk with me but strolling through the streets of the town was more therapeutic than I could remember.It was the weekend and I was supposed to be resting from the stress of last week.I was restless.I couldn't close my eyes without being taken back to that horrific evening, I didn't need any fucking reminder, I had been there when I was seventeen and I didn't want to be there anymore but it seemed my demons could not understand me because they were ready to drag me into their abyss the moment I closed my eyes.They pounced on me without mercy and I was forced to take those pills again.I hated them, they made me feel sick and weak and strongly dependent on them. Without them, I was like a ticking bomb that could go off at any time.I hate that I need them.I tried thurried out of the house without my car and the only thing I thought I needed was my credit card and a face cap.I should have grabbed my shades as
Aurora’s POV“Can you stop doing that?” I groaned out frustrated.Why does he keep staring at me and making me flustered?He tilted his head questioningly. “Doing what?”“Staring!” I snapped impatiently.He chuckled and shook his head “Sorry, I didn't notice. It won't happen again”“Good” I whispered to myself, hoping he could not hear it but unfortunately, he still heard me.“Why not? Are you afraid I will read your mind?” he laughed softly, teasingly.Of course, he knew that was impossible, that I'd rather cut open my own arm before letting anyone read my thoughts, especially not him.But I had no idea how to respond so I simply mumbled ‘“yeah” under my breath. Why did I sa
Alpha Daniel's POV“Something is bothering you, would you like to talk about it now?” Her annoying voice echoed through my study and I rolled over in my chair so she wouldn't see me glaring at my computer screen. “Hey, it's your turn now anyway!” She said while poking my arm with her pen, making me glare harder even though it was pointless since she couldn't see me. “You're being weird lately. Something wrong?”“What do you want?” I snapped and turned off the monitor just to avoid her prying.She sighed dramatically. “Fine. If you don't tell me what's going on…then suit yourself”“You may leave now,” I told her yet I didn't hear the sounds of her walking away or anything . She must still be there, which means that I'm not free yet. Great. My brain already aches from this stupid project. I really hope it isn't a big deal. I'd have to find another way to distract myself from last night.“You are really not going to tell me?” Her annoying voice was back and I wanted to scream at her to
Alpha Alexis POV Something was going on with Aurora, first she was screaming all through the night and trying to reassure her that she was going to be fine. Something about the man in the dark. Who the hell was the man in the dark and what did he want from her? Aurora was behaving strangely, her eyes were moving from side to side and not in a pleasant way, they were darting left and right, almost like an animal, searching for danger. She looked like she was in pain, but more than that she looked terrified. “Aurora?” I tapped her gently but it didn't seem like she could hear me. “What is going on?” the fear was there in voice and her eyes were beginning to close. Something was off about it and I couldn't tell what it was, my wolf wasn't having any of it as it kept whimpering and jumping inside of me in distress. Something wasn't right. Something was happening. “Stay with me Aurora, stay with me” but her lashes kept fluttering until they grew still, and her eyes closed. She cou
Aurora’s POV “Are you sure that you are okay?” Alexis asked for the umpteenth time. It had been more than four hours since I woke up from whatever phase that was, and while my head still hurt, it wasn't like before. This time, though, the throbbing was constant, so constant that I could almost ignore the pain. Almost. My body was exhausted, and my mind was sluggish to function properly, but my head felt fine. “Yes,” I assured him, “just a bit of a headache” It was hard to believe that there hadn't been a moment when I'd actually believed what I was telling myself about my head hurting. But now that the adrenaline that usually kept it at bay was long gone, my memories were starting to come back slowly, one by one. And, while they were certainly coming in, the details weren't quite so clear. Not surprising. I was still pretty disoriented and confused, with an uncomfortable sensation running down my spine whenever I tried to move the right way. Still, it was better than waking up and
Aurora’s POV “I know someone who can help you” Immediately I heard those words, my heart began to pound faster against my chest, my hands went into a tight grip and my eyes began to water slightly. A tear fell down the right side of my cheek as I took a step backwards towards my bed and sat down on it, my face was filled with anxiety and shock, and I couldn’t even breathe properly. I know I needed help, I needed answers but this? Why was I suddenly scared? This situation seemed too bizarre, too impossible. I thought I could handle whatever this situation was, I wasn’t that scared of being lost after all these years. But yet here I am, standing frozen in front of some stranger- that wasn't much of a stranger, scratch that Alexis wasn't a stranger but there I was not knowing what to do or say. My mind went crazy, thinking about every single scenario that could possibly happen. “Who?” I croaked out. “A seer, it's going to take us three days to get to her but I heard she could help
