Skye's POV

"I heard what happened last night. I thought everything was okay between you two?" Keira asked me while we walked into the streets to this shop she was telling me that sells good coffee.

School was suspended for the day for unknown reasons. But it's not like we were complaining about it.

Instead of going home, we decided to go around town. And come to think of it, this might actually be my first time strolling around.

I usually just go to school then back to the pack house again, except of course the party thing that I attended, but aside from that, my days have been pretty much dull and have the same routine every single day.

I've always felt that I've troubled them too much, not to mention it's Alec's mother who's been paying for everything for me. So I try to stay away from trouble as much as possible.

I wonder where she is now. I've never seen her again after the first day I got here.

"Hey Skye! There you go again, you're not listening to me." I snapped out of my thou

    Skye's POV"You look pale. Are you really okay Skye? We can drop by at the infirmary and get you checked you know." Keira was rattling nonstop since we got out of the alley. My heart was still beating fast even after we arrived at the pack grounds."I'm fine Keira." I tucked in a strand of my hair to my ears, looking around, anxious that the man might have followed us here."If your sure then I won't press." She caressed my shoulder and hugged me. "I have to go, dad's looking for me and he'll surely raise hell if I stall longer here." She chuckled at the last part and started jogging away."Bye..." I waved my hand and stood there a few seconds. And when she was gone, I immediately strutted fast, going to Alec's house.I initially didn't want anyone to know what happened, but I can't just stay quiet knowing that the man might be after Alec's family, especially since he knows me, about us being mated to each other."Hi, is Alec here?" I asked Rufus, a young friendly omega I came to kno

    Alec's POV"I heard there's another rogue attack on the far east side from here." Carter muttered.We were on our way to the pack ground since we just got back from Alpha Erik's pack, negotiating a proposal that would benefit us and our allies."They've been unhinged lately. I'm sure a powerful figure is behind them for the rogues to be this courageous," I said, accelerating the car."Or they could be just a bunch of crazy bastards," Carter replied nonchalantly, his attention on his phone.Crossing the border, a strange tension filled the air, making us both shift uncomfortably in our seats. "Rogues." We spoke almost at the same time. "What is happening?" I asked the warriors through the mind link."Sir, there's an attack, but...""But what?!" I impatiently cut off the warrior who seemed hesitant to continue."It's Miss. Skye, sir. She's... taking care of them."My hands gripped the steering wheel harder. What did he mean, Skye was handling the rogues?"How many rogues. And tell me y

    Alec's POV"Is she still refusing to come out of her room?" I looked at Keira when she got out from Skye's room.Two days had passed since the rogues had ruthlessly killed that young pack member. I asked Keira if she had known the kid, but even she was unaware of his existence. Only after the incident did I get to know the boy, and tragically, it was the same day he met his demise. But as unfortunate as it was we had to move on, especially since enemies are lurking in the dark.Rufus's mother was still gripped by grief, and we felt helpless in our efforts to console her. We'd cremated his body, placing his ashes in an urn and gave it to her. I went personally to their house, but when she saw me she immediately lashed out, saying that me and my family were incompetent and that we were the reason why her son got killed. She even accused me of bullying the kid which I had no idea where she got it from.I got suspicious why she could point out such an allegation so blatantly without fea

    Skye's POV"Hey, there you are," Keira exclaimed, enveloping me in a bone-crushing hug.After days of grieving, I had finally started to feel better. It was Alec's visit that made me realize how messed up I'd become during those dark days. When he admitted he was still unsure about me, I was hurt, but I couldn't deny that I had expected that response from him. After all, I knew he still couldn't feel the bond, since the black mark on my chest seems to have intensified.I couldn't help but wonder about the twists of fate. If I hadn't sought Alec through Soul Wandering, if our paths had never crossed, would the gods have granted me a different mate? Another person I could've learned to love, or would I have waited years for nothing?"Let's eat. I'm sure you're famished," Keira urged, leading me to the dining room where numerous pack members were enjoying their meal. As we entered, heads turned, and hushed conversations rippled through the room. I couldn't shake the feeling of being und

    Skye's POVAs we walked into the pack house, I expected to see people bustling around, but instead, it was oddly quiet, and everything looked normal.Nathan, and I exchanged puzzled looks, wondering what was going on."Where is everyone?" I asked Keira, and both Nathan and I were clearly confused."They're in the Alpha's office. Hilda has put up a shield around it, so no one can get in or out," Keira explained, and I nodded, understanding the situation. This was a potential issue, so I get it why they would want to be discreet about this.I attempted to climb the stairs, but a sudden, invisible force pushed me back, causing me to stumble and fall.Nathan rushed to my side, concerned. "Skye, are you okay?" he asked as he helped me up."Yeah, I'm fine," I reassured him, brushing the dust off my dress.I extended my hand, cautiously this time around, touching the first step of the stairs, and I could sense the same invisible energy blocking my way.I heightened my senses, and I could di

    Skye's POVI didn't utter anything, even after Alec and his father finished their argument.I stood still as I watched them raising their voice at each other, and Alec trying to protect me. Saying that he will not let his father kick me out of their territory.The more words I heard come out of his mouth, the stuffier my heart felt.I knew that he was going to give it some thought, about us, about me being his mate. But I didn't thought that he was actually serious to the point that he would go against his father's orders.There was something in him that I saw at this moment that made me feel secured, like I didn't have to fear being rejected by him. It was as if, I can hear him say to his father that I was his mate, that he was fighting for the both of us."You do not have any say in this Alec! You made a mistake and you will own it and be a father to that child!""I will! But she's staying father, whether you like it or not." Alec spat loudly at his father, turned around and walked

    Skye's POVSo far, everything has been peaceful. Alec and I have finally told everyone about our relationship. Some were happy for us, and some didn't quite like the news, especially Edward. Katherine seems happy for us though, I think that at least is something I should be glad about.As for Erin, they haven't exposed the issue of her pregnancy, and she refused to get out of her quarters for that very reason. I don't know why she wants to get an abortion. I can only hope she would change her mind. The child is innocent from the sins of their parents, they shouldn't be the one to suffer the consequences."Skye, what are you thinking over there?" Alec snapped me out of my thoughts.We were currently in the park. He thought it would be nice to have our first official date as a couple, and since I haven't really experienced it, I wanted to give it a try.He was carrying two ice cream in his hands as he approached me, and he looked at me with a concerned expression.

    Alec's POV"Alec." I heard the door open to my room and saw Skye coming in with a solemn expression."Where did you head off to?" I asked her, curious where Keira could have taken here.She was gone for almost two hours, so instead of just moping around I decided to exercise a while ago, so now I was drenched in sweat, my shirt stripped from my body as I planned to take a quick shower, but her sudden appearance stopped me."I...I talked with Erin." She said, and I was quiet for a moment, nearing her. "Did she hurt you?" "No, nothing happened we just talked." She replied, and I nodded."What did you two talk about?" I took the shirt I wore earlier and wiped my pits with it since it felt sticky."Just some stuff, and she, umm, apologized to me actually.""Oh? So you're both cool now?" I queried, throwing the shirt into the basket."Kind off, anyway why are you shirtless and all sweaty?" She changed the topic and and pointed at my still glistening chest."Exercise." I curtly replied, f

    --Alec's POV--I walk inside the house with whirlwind of thoughts going in my head.I thought I already recovered. I tried my hardest to forget about her, but every time I wake up, every time I take a walk and walk alone in the night, all I can ever think is her.And now, this letter arrived, just in time to wreck the wall I tried so hard to build."Hey, what's up with you? Why do you look angry?" Keira asked, walking out of the kitchen. I could smell the scent of baked cookies lingering in the air and figured she must've barged in her for more than an hour."Why are you here?" I asked, narrowing my eyes down at her. "Why are you in a bad mood?" she asked back."I don't want to talk about it," I said, and went up the stair and into my room, closing the door loudly with a bang.I dropped my body on the bed and immediately felt worn out. My mind was exhausted and without even realizing it, I fell asleep quickly. When I opened my eyes and looked at the window it was already dark. "Wha

Ella came to my desk with a look in her face that says she just heard some juicy gossip."What is it this time,""Oh come on you have to sound more energetic than that, this one's real good," she said, and I rolled my eyes, totally not believing her."Ok fine, if you're not interested then I won't tell you," she huffed crossing her arms.I took a glance at her and sighed, I put my pen down and with a honeyed smile I asked her, "Just tell what it is you want to say," I said, and she was being stubborn at first but soon caved in and let me tell you whenever her mouth opens it really takes a long time before it closes again."Have you heard of that cold professor I thought you had a fling with?" My body froze, knowing the person she was talking about."You mean Alec?" I muttered his name lowly, afraid that he'll pop up the next second I say his name aloud.Alec stopped coming to school, and because of that, we got

    The sun rose high up in the sky. Alec set up a tent for both of them and slept through the night at the beach. When he woke up, he moved his hand beside him to pull Skye close to him, but he didn't feel any sign of her anywhere.He abruptly got up looking around, and seeing the empty space beside him, his heart skip a beat. He got out of the tent fast and searched the area for her. He sniffed the air, and when he got a whiff of her scent, his nerves instantly started to calm down. "Where is she?" he looked around, and not too far away, he spotted her dressed in white dress, sitting on the sandy beach, leaning on a tree. Alec slowly walked to her, as if any moment she'll disappear if he doesn't get to her on time. "Skye!" he yelled.Skye looked up to him and smiled, "You're up early," she said, and got up dusting off her dress, but unexpectedly Alec came to her and gave her a tight hug. "I thought you left me," Alec's voice was broken, he hid his face in her neck, pulling her clo

    🌹Third Person POV🌹Skye looked at Alec who was walking ahead of her to the car. She was thinking if what the lady there said bothered him, but she chose to stay silent, not wanting to add more to his obvious signs of frustration.When they got inside the car, Alec was still quiet, until half way on the road, he glanced at Skye and took a deep breath. "Skye, you know how much I care and love you right?" He asked, and Skye nodded her head at him, smiling softly. "Of course,""Good, cause I want you to know, everything I did and will do, it's because I love you, but don't ever think that the consequences of my actions is your fault," he muttered, gently brushing Skye's hand with his. Skye looked at him, and a trace of remorse washed over her. She can't help but blame herself. She can't help it, she's the only reason why Alec refuses to move on with his life, she thought when they meet again he would change, even just a bit, but he was exactly the same person he was five years ago.

    "So where are you taking me?" Skye asked, looking out of the window. Im sure she was in awe since we never really got out of town. It's probably her first time seeing this kind of bustling city. "How about we go for some rides at the theme park?" I asked her. "What's that?" "It's machines that is shaped like a plane or cars or other stuff, Ooh! And there's also a rollercoaster, I'm sure you'll like them," I said, and she looked really puzzled which made me chuckle. "If you say so. I trust you," she said, smiling while releasing a heavy breathe of air. ..."Ummm...Alec, is this it?" Skye said, sticking to my side like a glue. "Yeah, don't you like it?" I asked her, and she shook her head, "Of course I like it, I just didn't think there would be this much people around," she said, and I was overwhelmed by her innocence to these kind of things. We first tried the carousel and she kind of liked it, but Skye was swaying left and right, unable to maintain her balance. The kids were

    "Skye,""Hmmm?" I reached to her, circling my arms around her waste, hugging her deeply."What is this? Did you do something wrong? Why are being so clingy all of the sudden?" She asked, and I chuckled silently. I buried my face deeper into her neck, smelling her heavenly scent."Alec,""Yes?""What do you think about going on a road trip with me this weekend?""Tomorrow?""Yeah,""I guess I'll be a bit busy, but I'll make time to do it with you, how's afternoon? Sounds good?" I asked, and I could see her face lighting up as she nodded her head. ..."W-what??? Is that...""Shit! It's Skye, is that really you Skye?" All eyes turned in my direction as Keira, Derek and Evan looked in my direction with question in their gaze."It's me," Skye softly spoke, looking at them with a gentle gaze, her eyes sparkling with tears.I know she misses Keira very much, and O wasn't wrong, because they soon got into a tight hugging session, and of course the two dimwits joined them.

    I could feel the sun hitting my face. I groaned in discomfort, wanting to close the curtain but it was too far away and I was too lazy to get up such early in the morning.I travelled my hands around, wanting to see if Skye was still around in the bed but I couldn't feel her anywhere."Skye?" I mumbled groggily lifting my head up to see that I was in my room.Not in my current room but in my old room, my room back at my old house. What the fuck is happening?I jolted up and when I looked around I was dumfounded when I realized it really was my room back then.But...how? How did this happen.[Knock! Knock!]"Hey, mom told me to remind you that we're going out of town today. So you better pack your things up or we'll leave you behind," I was shocked when I saw Nathan standing at the door. "Y-you're alive?" I pointed at him.He narrowed his eyes down at me, "Do you wish I'm dead you prick? Tsk!" He clicked his tongue, banging the door close, leaving me totally confused.I looked out o

    "Alec...wait for me, hey," she grabbed my hand making me turn back to her."Are you angry?" "What do you think?""Is it about what I said in the room?"I didn't answer her, and just eyed her up and down before crossing my arms, huffing."Come on, I only said that because in true sense you're still my professor, and everyone will bad mouth us if we start telling everyone that we're together," she said. I thought about it for a while and sighed. She does have a point."Fine, I forgive you, but you have to make it up to me," I said, pouting my lips, pretending to be sad. When she laughed at the stupid face I made, I laughed along with her, circling my arms in her shoulders as we got out of the hospital."By the way, did you really pay for everything already?" I asked her."No," she replied and I looked at her as she smiled cheekily at me."So let me guess, I'm the one who's paying for the hospital bills?" I asked."Of course, you owe this family too much, and besides your also gonna d

    "How did this happen? How are you here without needing any help? Just how did you manage to resurface?" Freya bombarded her with questions as I made food for us since Skye said she was hungry. "I have my ways Freya, and how are things back in Hephalis, the last time I heard is that there are people who wants to go against the order?" she asked, and my brows furrowed at their conversation.What are they talking about?"We subdued them, not long after your disappearance," Freya answered her, and Skye nodded, smiling at her, "That's good to hear," she said. As I looked at Skye, I noticed some sort of mark in her chest. "What is that?" I neared her as I let the meat boil for a few minutes."What's what?""That," I pointed at her chest and noticed a petal pattern."Oh this, this is nothing. This girl must have got this tattoo," she said, referring to Ella.Alec noticed the odd behavior of Skye, and even Freya's brows scrunched together when she noticed the mark, and her eyes turned into
