Skye's POV"I don't think this is working anymore. I have to be honest with you, I'm not certain if your parents are still going to wake up." The pack doctor told Alec. I rubbed his shoulders comforting him as he receive such a devastating news."So what are you telling me that my parents are good as dead?! Is that it?!" Alec yelled, me and the doctor were both startled at his reaction, but I quickly grabbed his hand when he was about to grab the poor doctor's collar."Alec stop," I pulled at him stronger, "Alec!" I exclaimed, getting his attention as his dilating eyes gradually steadied as he breathed rapidly."I'm here, just breath Alec...breath..." I pacified him. After Nathan's death, Alec has been unstable, he would burst out easily, throw things around, he's become hot tempered. And because of the impending war we are about to have with the rogues thay is closely looming, I'm aware that he had a lot of burdens in his mind right now, so he must be under a lot of distress.Hilda
Skye's POVI sat still beside Alec, but I was pretty much uncomfortable because of the irritating guy, who kept on watching me."So this is your mate?" An elderly woman, Veronica, asked, she was probably the same age as Alec's mother, but she had a more vibrant look on her. She's the luna of the Silver Moon Pack, and they were kind enough to lend us a hand at our war against the rogues."Yes," Alec curtly answered, clasping our hands together to show of our intimacy."You're extremely beautiful dear." She complimented, and my cheeks reddened as I said thank you to her."Hmph! Not that beautiful." An annoying brat chimed in. I looked deadly at Derek's direction, or rather everyone was looking at him at this point. He noticed the stares he was receiving and shifted on his seat. "What?" He asked obliviously, as if he just didn't make a snark remark. Hmph! So immature."Anyway, I've heard that she's not exactly your mate yet. I mean, you're still not over eighteen, so how come you believ
Skye's POV"One! Two! Three!" The warriors shouted all together as they started their training once again.It's been like this since the Silver Moon Pack arrived. They're training extra hard. And I don't know what else to do around here since Alec is always busy and I haven't even seen him around for two days now. I miss him, but I'm sure he has a lot on his plate right now. So I'm trying to be more understanding of him."Hey Skye! What are you doing here?" Derek asked jogging his way towards me, all topless, sweaty and gross."What with that face? Are you grossed out of me?" He asked, and I covered my nose, indirectly telling him that he smells bad, of course I'm just teasing him, he actually doesn't smell but it's fun teasing this big guy around.He smelled himself and crossed his brows at me, "I don't smell." He said plainly."Yes you do." I shook my head, running away from him and going to Keira's side."What's up with you. Why are you...ohhh." I said, amused, as I caught her watch
Skye's POV"He hurt you?" Keira asked in disbelief. I didn't know who to talk to aside from her. I never saw Alec like this. It's like he's always at his breaking point, and now, I'm afraid to face him again."You can stay with me tonight if you want." She suggested and I gladly accepted her offer."Thank you." I said."Skye, Alec has always been temperamental, but he only goes berserk when he's under a lot of stress, so I hope you can be with him and face these challenges together. After all, you are his future luna." She said, and I unconsciously rubbed the mark he gave me.She's right, we should be in this together. It was kind of my fault anyway."It's lunch time, we should go and eat with the others." She said, standing up from bed. I was skeptical about facing Alec today but I guess it wouldn't hurt to make the first move. Plus, I don't want the day t end with both of us still on bad terms...."Is that all you're eating?" Keira pointed at the food on my plate, which only consis
I'm currently wandering on the streets hoping to buy a gift for Alec. Keira lent me some money, and I'm hoping I can see something as a peace offering to my grumpy mate.I went inside a clothing store and I asked for the sales lady for some tips or recommendations. And when she heard that I was having a quarrel with my lover her smile widened into a cheeky one, and she guided me around on what seems a section of oddly looking clothes that were pretty revealing for my liking."Are these supposed to look like this?" I asked the lady sheepishly, not too fond of the idea of wearing such bold looking clothes."The fastest way to fix a lover's quarrel is to seduce your man into saying sorry to you. And what better way to seduce men than wearing a lingerie." She said grinning, moving her brows from one side to another, and my mouth formed an o shape, contemplating if I should do this.Is this how humans solve a problem? By showing some skin? "You should go try it on. I bet it fits you well
Skye's POVWe sat quietly in the dining room. All five of us, me, Alec, Fredrick, Veronica, and to my utter dismay, Derek was also here to witness the awkward conversation."Dear if you are thinking that were judging you then don't. Me and my husband have be in that phase. Especially sice you are a new couple things are still getting exciting for you." Veronica muttered, trying to console me, but it just made me edgy even more."What's mom talking about?" Derek asked."Just shut up, it doesn't concern you, eat your food." Fredrick scolded him"What the fuck did I do?" Derek was confused why he was being scolded, he threw his hands in the air and just ate his food in peace."Thank you, I hope that incident didn't change your idea of me." I fiddled with my hands, and. alec saw my discomfort and sneakily grabbed my hands and soothed me."Not at all. And it will stay between us." Fredrick assured me, and I sighed a breath of relief, but the uncomfortable feeling was still lingering there.
Skye's POV"You win, so what do you know?" I threw a bottle of water to Derek who was sitting after he just finished working out. "So you've finally come to your senses?" He said, smirking and opened the bottle of water and chugged all of its contents in one go."I know my mate is just trying to protect me, so stop saying shady stuff on him." I said and he just raised his hands as of he was admitting defeat."Ok fine. So what do you want to know?" He asked."Everything you know about what's going on." I replied, and I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to this, but I have to know what's going on. I shouldn't be kept from the dark, and I have a feeling that things aren't as peaceful as it seems. Cause if that was the case, then everyone should have been allowed to go back to school, but as I see it, they are getting more strict with the new rules here."Ok then, but let's not discuss it here. Let's go somewhere more private." He said."In my room?" I suggested and he immediately shook
Skye's POV"Skye I don't want to be a bringer of bad news but rumor has it that you've been spending some time with Derek. The others are talking about you and Alec having some romantic crisis that's why he's always grumpy. Is that true?" Keira mumbled while we were in her living room. "No. It's just, we are talking about some important matters that's why were always together. And about Alec, he seemed fine when we slept last night. Why? Is he angry when he's outside training with the others?" I asked, and Keira was now zipping her mouth, refusing to answer my question."Keira!" I yelled when she was still not talking, "Just tell me..." I was practically begging her at this point."Fine-fine-fine, Alec is kind of being a tad oppressive now. I'm sure some are just exaggerating it but the other day, I saw him sparring with a warrior as punishment because he missed his morning patrol. And he beat the poor guy up. Of course he deserves punishment but isn't what he's doing a bit excessive
--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'S POV🌹(1 month later)"Hey girl, have you heard what happened?" 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 couldn't hel
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
