~Avan was on the verge of finishing his lunch and here I was still not halfway with mine. I've been in my head all night just thinking why it had to be me. Why wasn't someone else chosen for the Alpha? I wasn't cut out to be a Luna and help protect a pack from vampires and lycans.I released a groan before placing my head on the table. The constant talking in the cafeteria was making my head hurt even more. I felt a hand on my back and i looked over at Avan who's eyes held much concern. "Talk to me Lina, I know something's wrong. What happened yesterday?", he asked before I straightened up in my seat."Well, alot happened yesterday. On my way to the border I was almost attacked by a vampire. If it wasn't for Mykel I would've been dead basically", I say as he looked at me in shock."Shit!. I'm glad he appeared in time because I would've killed him for making you come out there in the first place", he said as I released a small laugh. It disappeared when I noticed some new faces sitti
~'Yes I'm in a bit of pain but I'll be fine. I don't really want to talk about it right now', she replied as I listened intently. She was hiding something but I didn't push it. She was my mate and I need to know if she was ok or not. I was in my office awaiting my uncle for a important meeting when my wolf started howling. It wasn't a danger howl but more of a sad howl which made me act quick and decided to call my mate. Luckily I got her number from her best friend Kailee who was hesitant at first but still gave me anyways.'Lina, make sure you're alright. I have to go now but I'll call you later and we'll talk about this', I replied calmly as I waited for her response.'Ok'.I sighed before ending the call and relaxed in my chair. I didn't know what my uncle wanted to discuss but it seemed really important. I wasn't very fond of him mainly because he had this sadistic way of dealing with things. He was apart of my pack but he doesn't live with us and only visits when necessary. He
~LinaThe place was beyond boring. All I wanted to do was go to school as much as I was introvert. I couldn't stand the torture of being alone when I craved some fresh air. My mind hasn't been in a good place lately and I didn't really know why. It felt like was something was missing and I wondered if it was him.Was I craving him?I shook the thought from my head but it immediately came back. The day he introduced me to his pack and then kissed me something inside me felt different. I couldn't explain it but I felt like I was more desperate to be around him. I've never felt this attraction to any other guy before so the feeling was foreign.I stared at the ceiling wondering when Mr. Ambrose will finish rebuilding my arm. I felt empty and half human without it. I sat up and took the chocolate bar from off the table. There was no way I could pull it with just one hand so I bit into the bag until it was exposed. I wouldn't say my life sucked but having one arm did. It's like I am half
~A W E E K L A T E R~After submitting all my assignments in one hour, I had nothing else to do than sit in the living room and watch a movie. Avan was at school and my parents were at work which meant that I was alone. I chose to watch 'Alchemy of Souls' which was surprisingly interesting at the very first episode. Imagine living in a world where you had powers to do what you want and no one looks down on you. Imagine being the most powerful amongst all mages in the Songrim kingdom!.I was too enthralled by this series.I paused the TV before leaving the living room and head towards the kitchen. I ate earlier but a small snack doesn't hurt anyone. I opened the cupboard and took out a spicy ripe plantain chips before closing the door. I didn't chose the classic banana chips as they tend to irritate my gum too much. I tore the top of the bag and empty its contents in a small bowl. I took one in my mouth enjoying how sweet it was. As I was about to take up another one when I noticed a
~Avantae RomirezSchool dragged on painfully slow. I wasn't in a good mood mainly because my sister was in different state of mind. I hated seeing her like this because she was just perfect to me. Growing up I knew I had to protect her at all costs since I was the older one. I didn't let anyone bully her for being different which sucks to be honest. I rather be weird or be called a freak than be normal and regular.Being normal is boring.The bell rang and I quickly stood up and left the classroom. On my way out I bumped into someone almost falling flat on my face. Luckily I knew how to balance saving myself from embarrassment."Fuck, can't you watch where you're going?", a female voice said my eyes scanned her over. It was one of the girls from the new group. It was weird that they just showed up here when we're already half-way through the course. I wasn't the one to judge a book by its cover but I had a bad feeling about them."I'm sorry, I didnt see you on my way out", I apologize
~THIRD PERSON FOR BETTER~ EXPERIENCE Clyde dashed through the trees keeping his eyes peeled for the house where the Alpha lived. His mixed grey and black wolf was panting and moving as fast as his four legs could carry him. He wasn't going to let Lina die. He knew there was something about her the first time he saw her. She was special just like her grandmother. There was alot she had yet to learn but things take time and one day all will be revealed. For now, he had to find the Alpha and tell him what was happening. Ofcourse they could easily kill him because he wasn't a member of their pack and that meant he was a trespasser. He had to risk it. For the sake of Lina's grandmother who begged him to watch over her knowing the reasons why. He met Lina's grandmother one day in a store and she invited him over for dinner. He couldn't resist how sweet she was and as much as he didn't want to get too close to anyone, he went nonetheless. Over time he learned about things he never thought
~LinaI tried to move my fingers and to my surprised they actually obeyed me. I turned on my back releasing a long groan in the process. My body wasn't in pain anymore but there was still a slight ache in my head. I lazily opened my eyes and scanned my surroundings. My eyes landed on Mykel who was sitting on the edge of my bed with worry written all over his face.I slowly got up and held my arm out for him. He stood up and hopped right in bed beside me. He then pulled me into his arms and buried his face in the crook of my neck inhaling deeply. I closed my eyes trying to enjoy the moment as I held onto him tighter. I missed how his body felt against mine."Hate to interrupt but I would like to hold my sister too", I heard Avan's voice say as I turned and looked at him.My heart almost burst from my chest when I saw that my room was crowded. Avan was standing beside my bed and so was my parents. My eyes also landed on Clyde who was standing in the corner with his arms crossed.I pulle
I exhaled deeply before laying on my back and looking up at the sky. The clouds seemed peaceful without a trouble in the world. I wish that I was up there with them just floating around carefree. Too bad I had to face the reality of my wishes. After waiting over another full week, Mr. Ambrose finally repaired my arm and that meant I was able to rejoin the academy. Thankfully today was Friday and relaxation day at that. Most of the students were on the lawn either chatting away or reading or doing whatever pleases them. I was in my own space laying on my blanket trying not to let my thoughts consume me.Overthinking was a bitch. It's hard to constantly be worrying about the same thing over and over again. It's like your mind is trapped and there was no escape. You can overthink on anything from the past to the events of the future. For now, I was only dwelling on the future and what was in store for me. Since I found out who exactly I was I had shut myself away from my parents. I love
I woke up feeling drained to my limit. My body felt like it was suffering from paralysis. I groaned as I tried to move my fingers and toes. I had used up all of my energy yesterday. I didn't really want to kill them but I had no choice. It was either them or my pack. The left side of the bed was empty. After I used up all my energy and the dungeon collapsing, I must've fainted because I don't remember much. I could feel Mykel's arms around me all night but I was too drained to even respond. I don't even know how long I've been sleeping for.I didn't want to think too hard but I knew the war was only a taste of what else was to come. There are much more dangers out there. I sat up slowly and rubbed my tired eyes. Mykel's scent was weak which meant he had left much earlier. The pack needs him. We had lost so much members yesterday. Too many to count. I threw the covers off my body and got off the bed. I felt a bit dizzy so I had no choice than to sit back down. I still wasn't sure how
~NALINA~I urged Clyde to drive even faster. Something was wrong at the pack house and it was driving me crazy. I wasn't sure what it was but I feared the worst. It could possibly be an attack and I only know of one person who would do that. Leville. Family had a way of always treating their blood like shit. You can't trust anyone even them because they are the same ones who will betray you. I knew Mykel was an excellent fighter but if Levi did attack them they could possibly be outnumbered. Mykel would urge me to stay away or stay safe but not this time. I wasn't sure what I could do but I had to try something. It's sad to say but if my pack goes down I'll go down with them. "Shit!", Clyde said as he stepped on the brakes and the car came to a quick halt. As much as I didn't want to believe my thoughts, the sight infront of me couldn't be explained any other way. The war was actually happening. There were too many bodies to count both from my pack and the attackers. With shaking ha
MYKEL KNIGHTWhen my father told me he had friends who could help with the war Leville demanded, I didn't expect it to be just five people. They weren't human for sure but I was still expecting a full group. The first guy who seemed to be the leader sat on the opposite side with a stern look on his face. The other two men sat beside him with the same expressions. The two girls present were beautiful but not as beautiful as my mate. My wolf agreed on that thought."Marcus, it's been a while", my father said to the man who only nod. "It has. Why did you decide to contact us after so long?", Marcus said resting his hands on the table. I sat upright in my seat keeping my eyes on the group infront of me. They didn't look that intimidating but looks can be quite deceiving. "I'm not sure if you remembered my brother Leville but he demanded a war on us and we could use a few extra hands", my dad replied but Marcus seemed rather unimpressed. I glanced at the girls and I noticed how the one
All eyes were on me when I entered the classroom. Maybe it was because my grandmother had died or maybe it was my appearance. It was a new me. I got a haircut, a much shorter one. I dyed it in jet black with a few streaks of red. I looked different but has a change ever hurt anyone?.I ignored the stares and took a seat at the back. Avan stayed home today to fill in our parents on everything. I was angry and hurt that they actually hurt my grandma like that. She didn't deserve it and whoever did it will be paying with their lives.As for my eye color it was still the same shade of purple. I didn't know what it meant but I had a feeling it wasn't dangerous. I didn't know anyone who I could ask...if my grandma was still alive she would've told me what it signifies. I grit my teeth at that thought."Miss Romirez, I offer my condolences. Your grandmother was a very sweet woman", my professor Mrs. Greene said before giving me a sympathetic smile.I only nod and returned one and then preten
They always say everything in life happens for a reason. But that's not true. Then what are those reasons when innocent people are abducted or killed? Did those innocent people do a crime and try to cover it up? No one knows and no one will ever know. Lives that are taken can never be replaced. My body was rigid as I sat on the leather couch. My shoulders slumped as I stared out to space. I could feel everyone soothing me or trying to touch me but I couldn't respond. My entire body and mind was elsewhere as different emotions take me over.My Grandma's body was in the kitchen but there was no blood. No signs of a fight or anything to say that she was killed in cold blood. Her body was just on the floor and her eyes were wide open. I still couldn't get the image out of my head. I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that they killed her. They didn't get to me so they went after her. "Miss Romirez, I'm detective Conwell. After inspecting the body some more I found no visible cu
~U N K N O W N~I hummed quietly as I looked at the worthless mutts infront of me. They were not worthy to be in my presence. They had one fucking job and they failed me!. Just get me a witch, that's all I asked and they failed me."W-We are so sorry Alpha, please forgive us", Effie I believe her name is pleaded with me. Daija on the other hand was awfully silent. No tears, no pleading, no begging. I hate that."You failed me. Jace called saying he had a plan and that he would bring her to me. What the fuck happened!", I roared slamming my hand on the mahogany desk. They were testing my patience."Her mate and brother showed up and we fled. You know we aren't strong enough in our panther forms--SILENCE!. You are fucking panthers for christsakes and you let some mutts over power you! I should throw you in the dungeon for this", I retorted glaring at the both of them. "Please don't we didn't mean to fail you. I don't want to go to the dungeons again, please", she begged as tears sprun
I wrapped the towel around my body and exit the bathroom. Mykel was sitting on the bed and when he saw me his eyes darkened. I smiled as I walked up the bed and examined the clothes he picked out for me. Just a pair of shorts and a red shirt.I dropped the towel absent-mindedly and pulled on the pair of shorts. Mykel's eyes never left my body and I knew he wanted to devour me. But this wasn't the time. We have to go to the dungeon to question Jace and the others. I need to know what they wanted with me and who sent them."I wish I could just taste you right now", Mykel said as I felt his hot breath on my neck. My body shivered when his hands snaked around my waist and pulled me into him. I was only half-way through buttoning my shirt so everything was on display."Let me help you with that", he said as he turned me around and started buttoning my shirt. I tried to hide my facial expressions when I felt how hard he was against my abdomen. I bit my lip as I avoided his eyes. God he was
"I don't hear anything", Quinn said as he placed his ear at the door and listened. The place was dead silent. This part of the shop wasn't really easy to find but they should've found us by now."Me either, they're searching for us", I replied as I stood up from my position. I've tried contacting Mykel through the link once more but I couldn't. I didn't get why it wasn't working but all I hoped for was that he gets here soon.I watched as Quinn shuffled back and came beside me. I listened keenly and that's when I hear footsteps coming this way. I swallowed as I pulled him to the far back with our backs against the wall. If they do get in we had nowhere to run to, we were trapped."Princess, are you going to open the door or should I kick it down", I heard Jace's stupid voice said and I grit my teeth."FUCK YOU!", I shouted back as Quinn clung to me even more."Don't worry princess, you'll do that soon enough", was his sadistic reply as I heard laughter. My body was trembling and I tri
~NALINA ROMIREZ~I had this odd feeling that someone was following me. No one seemed out of the ordinary but the feeling wouldn't go away. I left school about half an hour ago and just arrived at the bus stop. I had to walk back to the craft shop because the driver was too busy singing songs that he didn't hear me telling him to let me off. I could see it in the distance but I had to walk for a good five minutes.I glanced over my shoulder but I didn't see any suspicious cars or people. I hate having to always be on the lookout but it was a must for me now. I was a target and I can't forget that. I walked faster trying my best not to bump anyone on the way. Mykel flashed acrossed my mind and I released a groan. I was upset with him. I understand his concern for me but I couldn't possibly lock myself at home everyday. He wasn't happy about me getting a job but I told him I didn't care what he thought. I was only a bit mad at myself for talking to him like that but I wasn't a child. I
