Aria POVI walked out of the bathroom with the towel wrapped around my body. I was too tired to even put something on me. I walked towards the bed and looked at it. It was beautiful, done specifically as I’d asked Sam to do it. Like I’d no control over it my tears ran down my cheeks again. There was a pack of ice on the nightstand but I ignored it. I got under the cover, laid down in a fetal position, wrapped my arms around myself and stared at nothing. I didn’t know how long I stayed like this but soon I was welcomed by sleep. It was a restless sleep. I saw myself walking up a hill, trying to reach the top but hands came out of the ground and grabbed my feet. Everytime I freed my legs from their grasps, I fell again and they tried to take me down. The hands were all over me, covering my mouth, my eyes and I started to shiver and panic. I was going to die when suddenly my eyes shot open and I realized that I was still in my bed and sweating. “You’re not getting in” I heard Kathrine’
Aria POVKlaus was in the room. The second I felt his presence my mind was alerted. I could feel his stare on my back as I slept. I didn’t move but he did. He walked towards the bed without making any sound but I could feel his aura approaching me. I should have known that he wouldn’t listen to his mother.He must have now seen the room and realized that I had a surprise for him. If he wasn’t drugged we would have had a great night together. My eyes burned again, I took a breath trying to hold my tears back but suddenly his scent engulfed my senses and I lost control. I felt his warm body at my back and his arm pulling me into his embrace. That was my Klaus. I opened my eyes, turned to him and stared into his eyes. He was crying.“He is back” I thought to myself. I could see my protective and loving Klaus again and without warning I buried my face in his chest. He hugged me tighter and I cried myself out. I was scared of what he did to me but at the same time he was my safety from th
Aria POVThe dagger was purely made of silver, it reflected the light on it flawlessly and it had a white handle around it with a jade on it. The priestess smiled at the two of us and stood right between us. I looked at the few people around us and they smiled happily except for Kathrine, she pressed her lips together. Although she had warmed up to me a lot in the past days, she still didn’t accept me as her son’s mate. I also invited alpha Leo, who was like a father to me. Another priest walked towards us with a cup in his hand. It was the same as the dagger.The priestess held Klaus’s palm, ran the cold steel on his skin swiftly and his blood flowed into the cup that was held by the other priest. Then she did the same to me. Once the cup was full with our blood, she used the tip of the dagger to stir it, put it near her lips and started whispering and praying quietly. After she finished, she raised the cup above her head. I saw her eyes turn all white and she sounded like she was ch
KlausPOV I didn’t know how many rounds I had taken her on but by the time we were done, the sun was already rising and she was completely drained out of energy. I looked at her feeling pure joy, the ultimate feeling of ecstasy, I had waited my whole life to have my mate laying in my arms. Using my arm as her pillow, she slept peacefully. We were both naked with nothing to cover ourselves with, so I hugged her and teleported to the bed back in the castle. She stirred and turned the other side hugging a pillow: “That’s better”She said and I got out of bed. I put on one of my sweatpants, grabbed one of my t-shirts for her and helped her put on. Then I hugged her and drifted instantly to sleep.When I opened my eyes again, Aria was in the bathroom. I could hear the water running inside. I smirked with the idea of her naked under the water. I teleported to the bathroom and saw her standing under the shower with her back to me. I slowly walked to her, took off my pants and stood right be
Aria POVI entered the house when Elijah answered my question: “It’s Nick”I knew that this was going to happen. They needed to make sure that I did break up with Klaus for sure. I chuckled inwardly and mindlinked Klaus:“You can’t come here tonight”“Why the hell not?” “Nick followed me home and I don’t want him to see you. He must believe I’m dumped”“WHAT?” He shouted back inside my head and I could imagine his anger sparking inside his eyes.“Klaus, everything is under control. Don’t worry. Elijah is here watching him from behind” I tried to calm him down and failed.“You can’t tell me that when it comes to Nick. I knew that he would buzz like a fucking fly around you again”“Klaus …”“I don’t care what the fuck your plan is, I’m coming over”“NO”“Aria,” he said in a warning tone.“Just trust me,” I pleaded.He stayed silent for a few seconds before agreeing to it. I then mindlinked Elijah: “Where is he standing?”“Garden side”I walked towards the kitchen, grabbed a bottle of wh
Klaus POVI sat down in the meeting room, listening to the departmental reporting. It was boring as hell and I wanted to leave but I couldn’t. I rested my elbows on the table and intertwined my fingers together in front of my face, putting on a poker face.“As you can see Mr. Black, the latest business deal was a great success and the Wilson cooperation was the perfect match for us, in addition to…”Suddenly, I started to feel a little uncomfortable. I lost focus on what was being said. I was getting turned on beyond control and all I could think of was me buried deep inside Aria, right here right now. I gulped down hard, tried my best to suppress my desire. But I failed completely. I thought of her warm body against mine, her delicate lips stroking mine, her touch on my body and the sound of her moans calling my name. “What the fuck?” I thought to myself and the tightening inside my pants became unbearable. I never felt like that even when I used to daydream about her all the time b
Aria POVI stood in front of the mirror looking at the dress I chose to wear tonight at the wedding. I wanted to make sure that I stood out strong and powerful. I never thought that I would ever let the dark side in me out but when it came to my revenge I could never stop. Tonight, I planned to strike hard and painfully. I walked down the stairs to find Elijah in his tux waiting for me with a frown on his face. He had the gift I requested earlier in his hand: “Why didn’t you tell me about this?”I looked at him, and opened the box, making sure that everything was right: “Because it doesn’t concern you”“Is this why you’re doing all this?” He was getting angry. I turned to him and said: “This is none of your business”“When you chose me as your beta, you made it my business. Does Klaus know what you're going to do?”I snapped my head at him: “Let me remind that you’re my beta and not his”He grabbed my shoulders: “Aria, Nick will come after you. He will be asking for your blood”I sigh
Aria POVEveryone turned his head to look at the door while I stared at Nick intensely. He noticed and looked at me. That was when I smiled deviously at him. He was confused for a second. I slowly turned my head towards the door and it opened. The bridesmaids walked in one by one, each taking her place then we all waited for the bride to walk in.One minute,Two minutes…She didn’t, Nick knotted his brows together and people started to whisper. I kept my smile on. Suddenly, Marie entered the hall. Slowly her father walked her down the aisle. Nick sighed in relief and smiled immediately at her. She looked heart broken and her eyes were red. She stood in front of him but never looked into his eyes.The Moon Goddess priest started talking when Marie looked at me among the crowd and stared at me for a long time. I gave her emotions one last kick and she turned to Nick who was confused and her choked voice came out: “I…”The priest stopped talking and looked at her. She cleared her throat.
Klaus POV“Wolf’s bane”He threw wolf’s bane powder to my face. He knew he couldn’t win and decided to play dirty. He was such a lowlife person with no morals or dignity to face me. Instantly, I dropped to my knees struggling to breathe. While, Kaden stood next to me looking down at me with a disdainful smile on his face; “Forgot to tell you that my mother was a witch and she taught everything”He started circling around me one more time as I tried my best to calm down and limit the wolf’s bane effect on me to stay awake. I held my breath so as not to inhale more of the powder and paralyze my body.“You see, she taught me how poisonous the wolf’s bane is to your kind and how to use it to my benefit” he said and I tried to stand up, i needed to walk out of this spot to be able to breathe some fresh air. Before I could do it, he punched me hard in the face and I dropped back on the ground. Pain shot through my body, Then he started kicking me with his foot ferociously. He was angry, fru
Klaus POVAnother lost, forgotten and unwanted memory flooded inside my head. I wasn’t feeling good at all. I felt weak and vulnerable and those were new feelings to me. I have always buried my feelings deep inside and never looked back no matter what happened. I have always been strong and ruthless but ever since I got Aria in my life I have experienced all other types of emotions. Aria stared at me and I knew that she could feel everything that was going on inside me at this very second. For a moment, I didn’t want her to see me like this but there was nowhere to hide from her. She was my soul. Within a second, she numbed all my emotions, took all the depression and stress away. I didn't feel bad nor good. Just nothing at all. A weak smile found its way to me, she always does this when she tries to hide using her powers on me. She pressed her forehead against mine and said: “Let's go back to bed”Obedintly, I nodded my head and we both stood up and walked out of the bathroom. We cha
Klaus POVI had nothing to say to Aria. Not because I didn’t want to tell her, no, because I didn't know how to explain to her that I could feel my dead brother whom I killed years ago watching me. His scent, that I get every now and then, was driving me out of my mind. The first time I recognized it was back in Paris and it never left me afterwards. I asked Sam to make sure that he was really dead back then. Days later, Sam assured me that he was dead for sure and couldn’t find anything. It was like fire in my bones and I didn’t know how to deal with it but with what was going on with Aria and me I didn’t give much attention to the whole thing. Till now, I felt him staring at us inside my own bedroom and I just lost control. I jumped right off the balcony like a mad wolf. Even Though we searched the whole land and we didn’t find anything, I couldn’t feel peace. I looked at Aria who sat next to me completely drenched and she just looked back at me waiting for me to talk. She pulled he
Aria POVI opened my eyes gradually as I felt every bone in my body ache. The strength king Henry used was too much for me to tolerate. I wanted to raise my hand and touch my throbbing head but couldn’t. I turned my head to the side and saw Klaus sitting next to the bed, fast asleep while holding my hand tightly. “Klaus” I called out his name with a parched voice and tried to pull away my hand. His eyes snapped wide open and he stared at me. “Aria” he stood up and sat on the bed next to me. He caressed my cheek softly asking: “Are you okay?” he stared at me and I was immediately pulled into his soul. I could feel his worry rising like a Tsunami wave.I nodded my head and sat up: “I just have a headache”He sighed in relief and hugged me. I pressed my lips together in pain but quickly hid it from him. My whole body was in pain. “That’s fine. He didn’t hurt you, did he?” He let me go and stared at me. I didn’t want to answer this.“What did he want?” I asked curiously, changing the s
Before starting this chapter, I would like to thank you all for reading my book and I eagerly wait for your comments and reviews.. also note that I might edit the chapters again for mistakes and minor editions. =============================================== Aria POV I grabbed a dress that was in the closet and put it on. It was a little big but it’s better than nothing. My clothes were no longer usable. I stood in front of the bed and watched Klaus sleep peacefully. He looked like he didn’t sleep for weeks and I didn’t want to disturb him. The moment I felt his mind again and his soul poured inside mine, I was relieved. I didn’t hide my feelings from him, I let him feel how shattered I was and how messed up I had become. “Will I ever recover from this?” I thought to myself as I took a deep breath. I wanted to stop feeling bad about James but couldn’t because I didn’t feel bad about him, I felt bad for myself. I didn’t know I could be so uncontrollably powerful. Never thought that
Aria POV I poured it all into him. He felt every second of torture that he inflected on me and even more. I didn’t hold back or even feel pity for him. He deserved it. I was about to feel his heart stop from fear and pain when King Henry stopped me. He snapped his fingers and I lost total control over my power. “Aria” he roared my name and I turned my head towards him. He glared at me and I just looked down at James. He gasped loudly for air and laid down on the floor, his whole body shaking uncontrollably. He stared at nothing without saying a word. King Henry stepped down the stairs of his throne and stood right in front of me and I couldn’t hold back: “My King, you’ve heard everything. Everyone here heard it and it’s only fair that I kill him myself” I walked towards James, grabbed his hair and pulled it hard, showing his face to the King saying: “He has to feel everything I felt when he lashed me with his belt, 10 fucking lashes marked my body, and when he raped me, taking the l
Aria POV “No problem, you can use me” Sam said next to me and I snapped my head towards him in confusion. He smiled at me and moved towards Mika: “I had it in my hands for a long time. I am sure she could use me to look for it” “That’s easy” Mika said and sat down on the ground in the middle of the flowers: “I need you to lay down here” Sam sat down, laid down in front of her and she closed her eyes and rubbed her fingers on his temples saying: “Calm down and take a deep breath” Sam complied and took a deep breath in. “Now, Think of it. The last day you had in your hands. The place you were at. Who did you meet. I need you to visualize the whole thing inside your head and focus on it and then I will do the rest” We all stood still and stared at them without blinking. No one dared to even breathe, waiting in anticipation. It took her 15 minutes to open her eyes and all she said was one word: “Pants” Sam opened his eyes right after and stood up asking: “Which pants?” Mika shrugged
Klaus POV I was standing facing the door with an anxious heart and scared soul, when it opened and the guards stepped inside: “Your presence is needed alpha Klaus. Please follow us” They walked out and so did I. Finally, I was out of those four walls that drove me crazy in the past weeks. The guards took the stairs up from the palace underground prison and I followed to the great hall. The second I raised my head up I was startled. I saw Aria standing next to Sam, Elijah, Tory and others from Black who nodded their heads at me and there were new faces that I never saw before. Then I turned to the other side where James, and the whole of his pack stood. King Henry sat on his throne in the middle. I stood in front of him, surrounded by the guards. He nodded his head at them and they retreated to the side where alpha Franklin, Alec and Fay stood. I stared at them for a few good seconds. They were the packs that sided with James. I was still blocked, I tried to mindlink Aria and couldn’
Aria POVWe all stared at them carefully, counting the seconds and watching every move. We have been training day and night for this moment.The right moment…The moment when James jumped up in the air and aimed at me, it reminded me of the night when I attacked him outside of my building and Klaus saved me. But This time was different. He was different and I was different.The second he did. Zed knew what to do and he didn’t hesitate, just like we practiced countless times before. I was impressed by him, the 16 year old young boy that I found hiding in the woods. At first, he was scared and didn’t want to help or even talk to anyone but I just touched his emotions and assured him that no harm would come to him. His powers were truly magnificent and he was completely right to hide but not any more. It was time to show off what he could do and people should fear him and not the other way around.We all watched James fly up in the air and at the same time Zed came forward a few steps, k
