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
Alpha Daniel's POVThe old man haunted my mind all day and so did Luna. I wondered what she knew, why was she keeping me in the dark? What way could I use to approach this situation? Threaten her? I knew better than to threaten Luna.For one to get whatever they wanted from her, I needed to be patient, calm, calculated and manipulative as well. But not making it obvious that I was manipulative because it was Luna’s area of expertise.I needed to act stupid.Yes, so I decided that I was going to get her roses the next day and an apology, I just had to make it seem genuine and let the rest of the events fall in place.Later that night, I saw Aurora in my dreams. She looked different than I could remember, she looked more beautiful than I could remember. Her golden skin shone under the moonlight like it was made of crystal. Her golden blonde curls framed her face. A smile was on her soft pink lips as she stood there waiting for whoever.I couldn't believe my eyes, it felt surreal that sh
Alpha Alexis POV Something was off with Aurora, I thought she'd be happy that we found a solution to all of this but it seemed to me as if she didn't care anymore. She barely said a word and even her smiles seemed more forced. I got to her room that evening and it took a miracle for me to keep my eyes from roaming around the flimsy excuse of a nightgown she had on. “Uhm, are we going to go there?” I cleared my throat, trying to not let any of my thoughts slip out too much and make her think I lacked self-control. “Go where?” she asked, staring off at nothing in particular, absentmindedly. “The... the seer” She looked like some kind of enchantress and I lacked words to describe her. I felt something deep within myself stir at the thought of just how beautiful she was. Even her skin seemed softer than most people in the world; her lips were full and slightly puffy, and her nose scrunched up when she spoke. She stood up and moved close to me, her smell filled my nose and my Wolf wa
Aurora’s POVHe lifted me up and he grabbed me roughly by my neck, pressing his lips against mine harshly.I was sure that he could taste himself on my lips and I didn't want him to store.It was hard to breathe with the strong grip Alexis had used on me, forcing me to move against his body. He didn’t release me even after he had finished kissing me, he simply held me tightly in place. He kept muttering sweet, filthy words into my ear as his hand slowly moved downwards along my sides.I loved the sound from each as it sent more wetness to my core.I shivered violently beneath his touch.His fingers traced along my waist until they made their way across my abdomen, tracing the outline of my curves and leaving trails of fire where his finger touched me. A part of my mind wondered when we started kissing, and another part realised it was probably inevitable that our lips would come together. There was something about him that made me unable to resist.And I certainly wasn't resisting no
Aurora’s POV“Good morning” I had a towel wrapped around myself while I woke Alexis up.The brightness of the room probably fucked with his eyes because he fluttered them open and stared at me for a few seconds like a startled deer before sitting straight up in bed and running his hands in his hair. “Shit!” He cursed. “Too bright, what time is it?” His face was all pale and sweaty from sleep and his voice was still hoarse from sleep.He looked like shit but was still attractive, it gave him a raw beauty that made me want to lean down and kiss every bit of him except I didn't want to do that.Where was I getting all of these thoughts from? “I don't know. I didn't check” I said instead because my brain didn't seem to be able to function properly without thinking about kissing the shit out of the guy in front of me so instead of kissing I grabbed my dress and walked past him to the bathroom so I wouldn't look completely disgusting, but also because if I got close enough to him, I would
Luna’s POV (Flash back) No one knew where I came from, but they knew enough to consider me a bad omen. It was said that I was found on a lonely path and that I was about five and couldn't remember a thing, so my new parents kept me… “What are you doing? you are supposed to make breakfast” I looked away from the strawberry-blonde woman with a perfect face whose eyes were boring into my soul. “Yes Ma’am” I could still feel her stare shooting lasers at my back as I fidgeted with the kitchen cabinets until I found a plate and fork. “Sorry, sorry”. I quickly moved around the counter and went to make some scrambled eggs. It was only when she left the kitchen that I could breathe properly again. My head was spinning and my stomach was churning. A strange feeling of unease gripped my chest. It wasn't just the fact that she stared at me like an animal; she also seemed to know what I thought. And that unnerved me even more than her staring. I still remember when I got home from school and
Unknown POV“I found their headquarters, I know where they are keeping her, we should be on our way already” Silas was trying to button his shirt, his mind still in that dungeon where she was kept.“Woah, slow down a sec. How did you find it?” The femame questioned looking at the agitated male like he had grown a pair of horns.“What? you don't believe me?” Silas was agitated, they were wasting time.“No, I don’t. Last time I checked you were sleeping over there” She pointed with her hands. “And boom! you are telling us you found that you have found the moon stalkers quarter's, does that make any sense to you?” It was the calmness in the female’s voice that irritated one of them, how could she be so calm?“I found it!” He snapped through gritted teeth.The calm, who was just watching and knew where this was going to end, quickly jumped in. “Knock it off, children”Maybe the last word will keep them calm.“How did you find it, ?”Forcefully he tore his gaze away from the female, drawin
Alpha Daniel’s POVSex, Sex was a major distraction for me from all that had happened, Luna and I had sex nonstop, it seemed like. She didn’t even bother to get rid of my clothes afterwards. I could have gotten away with this if she hadn’t been such a perfectionist, but she wasn’t. She insisted on cleaning my sweat and tears off my body before I went to sleep, which made me feel embarrassed and gross. Now she was sitting on my face while I sucked on her clit bitting and using my fingers to make myself feel better. It wasn't working so well. The way my brain and dick just felt at peace whenever she touched me. I could hardly remember a time in our whole relationship when she hadn’t done it. It wasn’t fair. “Touch yourself” I ordered her. My voice sounded rough and deep and not my own. Her head whipped towards me, eyes wide and lips parted in surprise. She looked at me as though I'd grown another head. She stared and stared, like she couldn't believe what she was seeing. As though s
Aurora’s POVThat same dream invaded my head. With the same monster. The same dream, same words, same everything.“Not exactly who you were expecting, am I right?” he murmured amusedly, taking in the sight of me, as if he had planned this whole encounter.He took a step back and leaned his back against the wall of the room, still looking directly at me.My brain felt fried and my mouth felt dry. I couldn't find any words to reply. All that could run through my mind was him, and his eyes and his voice and his smell, his smell that filled me with pure terror.“Hello, Aurora” he greeted once again when he noticed my lack of response.“Aren't you going to answer me?” he teased, smirking playfully.My chest was constricting and my breaths were shallow. He chuckled again and shook his head, stepping towards me.“Answer me, Anna,” He demanded, looking furious like he was about to snap my neck.Very possible.But I couldn't think of any other thing apart from the fact that this could be my la
Aurora’s POVI don't think I could take it anymore. Then it struck me that I had gotten back my powers.“Do you think you can cut these ropes Ava?” I whispered to my witch side.“I'll try, but I am not promising you anything”And Ava tried but each time she tried the ropes that were tied around my wrist seemed to dig into my flesh causing more pain to my nerves which in turn made them even harder to control. I winced and squeezed my eyes shut as my head began to spin from the lack of oxygen. A moment later when it was apparent that nothing would happen for some more minutes I forced myself to relax and let go of all thoughts. I breathed deeply telling Ava that there was no need to try.“You see, I knew you were going to do that. Both those ropes are something no witch, vampire, or werewolf can untie and I choose it, especially for this occasion” The voice ran out again.“What do you want?” I was tired of playing his stupid games, I'd played enough already. He was the master of this wh
Alpha Alexis POVIn the midst of Aurora’s tears, I couldn't tell her that the council had mentioned me as a wanted person. I didn't want her to deal with more guilt than she already felt for her mistake. So instead I smiled at her reassuringly and said that I would be back soon to help. That would be enough for now. She was so young, I thought, how could her world have been shattered? But when she saw my expression, her face went pale and she nodded sadly before turning away. I felt like an insensitive fool.But I also needed to speak to my chief guard, he was the only one who was keeping me informed about all that was happening around us.“What is the update?” “You and your Luna are being followed, Sir, I think they put some sort of tracker on you both. Maybe they used a seer but as we speak now, they know where you both are, and it's best if you leave…”I didn't hear the rest because he was whispering and probably didn't want to get caught . My head buzzed. The thought that someone
Unknown POV“ She lost her powers, Father, and now she has them back, I don't know how possible that is, that is all I can say for now”We were seated in my little beast room which was lit with candles while she sat in the middle chanting , the air thick with the smell of incense, as if she could summon her powers at will from anywhere within our small sanctuary. The old wood panelled walls seemed to creak and groan with the vibrations as she kept repeating the same phrase over and over. As I watched, a spider fell to its death from a high beam above us. It didn' t even take five seconds until the floor began to quiver. I tried not to let it bother me. The candle flames danced around the room as I stared through the crack on the door at the dark figure kneeling before me. Her eyes shone red like embers as they glowed brightly under the flickering lights.I loved every bit of it. My daughter wasn't a tribrid, just a hybrid and she possessed these powers, I couldn't wait to get my hands
Alpha Alexis POVSometimes I wondered if Aurora cared about me at all. I honestly wanted to understand how she could sit there and comfortably speak of another man while I was the who who had been rejected. She’d told herself that a thousand times before, but now it just seemed crueler. Why hadn’t she ever said something? Maybe that meant that she didn’t think it mattered anymore. But…what had I done to be left behind?I made silly mistakes in the past, true but I was trying so hard to be better, trying even harder to keep her safe and sound. I did my best, didn't I? Didn't I love her like nothing else? If I couldn't please her as an adult then what kind of life would we have? What kind of life would I have without her around? I looked down as she rubbed her wrists where I held her previously. The angry fingerprint of my fingers lingered, but not long enough to show on her skin. It faded away after only a few minutes though, and by then she looked up at me with those big blue eyes, h
Alpha Alexis POVMy heart tore into shreds when I found it that it had all been lies, she had been lying to me the whole time and I thought I might actually die. She lied to me and didn't tell me, even though she knew how much I loved her and I told her a thousand times that she was my everything, that my whole world revolved around her and I wouldn’t survive without her and I couldn’t do this if she was gone.The entire damn time.What was I going to do? Someone from the council called me, he only did me that favor because I saved his life once. He said they were planning to come for her and I was thrown into a misery of despair.I couldn't let them take her even though she was a liar, even though she deserved it. If she died, who would I be then? The one left behind without her in my life. I would become just another Alpha. A sad person with no hope and nothing else to live for.As I drove home, I tried to keep my emotions in check to avoid any accidents on the way there, but ev
