The scorching sun threatened to fry any skin that dared to stand underneath it, but after about fifteen minutes, the sun began to set. It was a most beautiful sunset, casting a golden glow on the entire earth in its wake. Mira stood at the court anxious, excited, scared. It was a barrage of emotions. She wasn't sure what to expect from her private meeting with the most popular boy in school. Yet, she was super happy to be talking privately with her life long crush. She bit her index fingers feverishly and had to forcefully stop herself when she noticed she had started bleeding around her cuticles. After waiting for what seemed like an hour, she resigned her fate and assumed he wasn't coming anymore.'I was so excited that I forgot to carry my phone from my locker. I don't even know what the time is and mom might start worrying about me. I guess I'll just go back home now. I don't know why I thought the cutest boy in school was suddenly interested in me. I guess they were all right
They got to their locker and took the books they would be using today out, and went to their first class which was literature."Get seated" the teacher said ones he came in, he was referring to the guys he met seating on their desk instead of the chairs"We are being the discussion class about Hamlet, Mira read for me, I like your tone expression with how you read the first part for us in out class yesterday, it impressed me" her literature teacher saidShe stood up after summoning confidence "According to his plan, Hamlet begins to act strangely. He rejects Ophelia, while Claudius and Polonius, the royal attendant, spy on him. They had hoped to find the reason for Hamlet's sudden change in behaviour but could not. Claudius summons Guildenstern and Rosencrantz, old friends of Hamlet to find out what's got into him. Their arrival coincides with a group of travelling actors that Hamlet happens to know well. Hamlet writes a play which includes scenes that mimic the murder of Hamlet's fa
Mira left school immediately it was over to meet with her lovely understanding therapist."Hey darling, come in" Mrs Judy said as she saw Mira"Thanks ma'am" she said and walked into the office"Take a seat don't mind the many throw pillows" she cleared it out for Mira "my husband bought it to keep me company" the old laughed chuckled"That's hilarious" Mira laughed"He could be like that some times" she said and took a seat opposite Mira to begin the section "That's really nice, at least you can have a comfortable rest on them" Mira said"Yea" Mrs Judy nodded "okay, let's begin. How have things been working out for you in school?" She asked"It's been fine, I feel a bit of confidence these days. And when I read I'm able to concentrate better" she said and smiled at the evidence of growth"How about others around you in school?" Mrs Judy asked"Some of my teachers had praised me for my improvement and my mates well" she shrugged "they are still mean but I just ignore them" she explai
Mira had settled in and was about to start eating when the object of her fantasy appeared in front of her. She pinched herself to be sure that he was real and when the image didn't disappear, she carefully stood up and smiled. She hoped she wasn't visibly drooling as she tore her eyes off his godly build that pressed tightly against his shirt.The guy looked at her with curiosity as he walked towards her, one of his hands deep in his pockets. As he got closer to her the sweet intoxicating smell got stronger driving him crazy. Her heart beat quickened as he stopped only a foot away from her and takes in another sniff like dogs do. He continues to stare at her as he extends his hand out, “Alex.” He said and his voice came out husky. And fucking hot! She thought as she flashed him her brightest smile.The innocent girl in front of him looks down at his hand, her gorgeous blonde hair pulled back in a pony tail behind her.“Miranda.” She said and placed her hand in his and immediately s
Mira went to her next stop at the gym, just as she was about to enter the gym her mum called"Hello" her mum said from the other end of the call"Hi mum" Mira greeted"Do you mind getting some things at the mart from me?" She askedMira thought abit about it and decided to take an off day from working out today so she could attend to her mum "okay mum" she replied"Thanks, I'll send you a list of the things I need" her mum said and ended the call.She went to the mart as planned and bought all that her mum asked for.Mira was walking home from the mart. It was only a few blocks from the house so she preferred to take a walk rather than use a cab. She noticed the black convertible which was parked when she went in was still parked outside. Usually she was clueless about her surroundings but the car was something you had to notice even from a mile away. She didn't realized that she had stood staring at the car for a while till the owner came out. She immediately recognised him. Alex. H
Alex was frustrated, he didn't know how to handle the situation he had caused, he didn't know why he kept hurting her, he thought it was because he was fighting with his wolf and he didn't want her because she's human but his wolf wanted her and they were taking the whole thing on her, there by losing control and hurting her, he felt awful after what he did, but there was no time to waste win beating himself up for what he had just done, he had to hurry up and get her treated, he took her to the pack house and then a free room, he sent for pack doctor to check her and treat her bruises. The doctor came immediately and attended to his Luna with the best of his abilities, when he was done with treating her wounds, checking her vitals and injecting her with a special healing clay that is produced only in the were wolf world. He was sure she would be completely heal like nothing ever happened to her when she wakes up.After a few hours, Mira woke up gasping for air. She remembered everyt
“She fucking fainted Brian! I expected her to take it badly but she fainted just because I came close to her. She is so fucking afraid of me! She’s my mate. How can she lo-” Mira was brought back to reality Mira heard a familiar voice growl and her breathing stopped in her throat. Was she breathing too loudly? She thought and tried as much as possible to hold her breath altogether. “Give her some time Alex. She needs to come to terms with all these information Al. What do you expect? She just found out that human dogs exists” the person Alex called Brain responded with a low chuckle but Alex shushes him. “Sshh do you hear that?” Alex asked and Mira’s heart began to beat faster. “What are you talking about?” Brian answered with a confused expression. “She's here.”Alex said and Mira stiffened completely. She was caught without even making a sound? Like what the actual fuck! Their instincts must be sharp. Fucking animals.“Mira, you can come in.” Brian said jokingly. Mira gasped a
“You are not leaving and that is final!” Alex said, more like yelled at her. His voice boomed across the room causing Mira to jump as she looked at him. The thought of his mate leaving him drove him mad without him realizing.His eyes were piercing into hers. The gold irises seemed anything but inviting. “You are not leaving this place ever.” The voice said but it wasn’t Alex anymore, this was a whole different side of him as he stalked towards her and Mira screamed scrambling away from him but he grabs her upper arm causing her stand up. It was rear before a well controlled person like Alex lost his sense to his wolf side. He was usually much more collected and calculated. But just one word about her leaving and his wolf was in full reigns. Mira began to sob as he lifted her from her arm up to his level. Her feet barely touching the ground and her legs very much exposed. She closed her eyes shut as she tries to get her arm out of his grip. But it tightened even more making her sob
“mummy!” Hugh cried, scared. His mother looked back at him with tears filled eyes. Loren carefully looked out the window and Hugh followed his mother's eyes. From where he stood he could see clearly the impending danger. He stared hopelessly at the pack of wolves approaching, accompanied by other werewolves who were still in their human form holding up torches and pitchforks. It looked exactly like a scene cut out of an old with hunting movie. This pack didn't give a damn that it was the twenty first century. They were out for blood and even him at his age knew it. Loren walked back to her son and crouched next to him so that they were eye to eye. She had a sad smile on her beautiful face. She was looking at him but her eyes seemed so far away. Her mind was probably on her husband _his father, who had gone out to defend them from the mob.“Listen to everything I’m going to say now darling." Loren said to a confused Hugh. Her voice was thick and sounded shaky like she was holding back
"Mira, you know nothing about being a mother! Why don't you want me to come over or why not come over? whichever one you decide." Loren whined over the phone for the umpteenth time. Loren had taken her time preparing a room for her grand child at her house, hoping Mira would spend the first few months after the baby is born with her, but Mira had continually declined her offer."No mom. I'm okay and besides, the baby is not out yet." Mira responded laughing. Mira turned to smile at Alex who looked completely lost while trying to couple the wooden cradle Alyssa had gotten for them. It was archaic and the instructions were in their mother's tongue but he insisted on fixing it without her help. She was in her ninth month and he didn't let her as much as lift a pencil on her own. Since she got back to the villa, things had changed. Alex was so different now, caring and always watching her every move like he was scared that she would vanish if he wasn't too careful. Her mother wasn't any d
A gentle ruffling sound coming from the bed, stirred him slowly to a numbing consciousness but it was her tired voice that woke him up completely. "My love" Mira whispered as she struggled to keep her eyes open to see more of Alex that was sitting beside her."How do you feel" Alex held her hand and rubbed it with his thumb "I just feel like living this place, it sickens me" Mira complained"Let me call your mum, she's out side talking to the doctor, she should know you've woken up" Alex said "Okay" Mira sighed Alex got up and gave her a warm kiss on her forehead head, he stood there longer than usual, he was very relieved that she had finally woken up. He finally withdraw from her and went to get her mum."She has woken up" Alex said on getting to were Loren stood"Really?" Loren eyes lightened up with a smile slowly forming on her face"Yea" Alex answered obviously Loren was beyond happy, she practically ran to the room where Mira was lying in "Mum" Mira called as she saw her
In the week that followed Alex stayed rooted to Mira's side, watching and patiently waiting for her to wake up.the doctor had given them the news that Mira was in a coma but it wasn't life threatening to her or the baby. He said that it may take days or years before she woke up. The duration wasn't certain. Alex sighed as he stared at Mira. His Mira. He felt a strong urge to go immediately and snap the neck of the culprit but for now they only had loose clues and he couldn't bring himself to leave his wife's side.James had arrived at the hospital that evening of the accident, after Alex had instructed him to meet Sophia for more details on how she knew about the bomb but James came to report that Sophia was missing. Their only solid source to what was going on, and she was missing. After that day James and Hugh went to look for more clues to find and take down the culprit. But after one week and no word from them, Alex was openly irritated.He was fuming now and didn't hear his ow
"So what did you do today at the villa" Mira asked just for the sake of bring up a conversationAlex thought of outing out the part were he met up with his ex but decided to be completely truthful since he didn't do anything bad, he is not meant to act guilty, he could only wish that Mira will not misunderstand it."I had a talk with Sophia" Alex said "Hmm, a talk?" Mira raised a brow"Yea, just to put things in order so that it won't creat any unnecessary enemity between us in the future" Alex explained"Okay, if you say so" Mira just shrugged, she didn't want anything to bother her, she has to trust Alex.When they got to the hospital they came down from the car an walked in to see her doctor, as they waited for their turn Mira relaxed back on the chair.Yes, she wanted her baby to enjoy the presence of a father figure in its life, especially since she did not get to enjoy much of that. Still, she was not sure if she wanted her child to be raised in a pack of werewolves. And she wa
When they got to the elegant restaurant, they sat down and ordered their preferred meal. Alex insisted on paying the bill but Loren refused, when they were done with their meal he quickly paid for it before she noticed."You're smart I'll give you that" Loren chuckled when she noticed what he did"I really enjoyed the dinner" lulu said smiling as they all walked out of the restaurant.Luke and Lucie waved them and took off to their house. Loren, Alex and Mira got into their car and went home.Mira just said a quick good night to Alex and Loren and went to her room, she was really tired and needed a good rest.Alex didn't bother disturbing her, he respected that she wasn't in the mood to talk and was tired.The next day Mira slept through the morning in her room, she didn't have the will power to stand up yet.When Alex came to check up on her she was half at sleep and half awake, he didn't wanted to disturb her but he needed to tell her that he would be leaving the house to the villa.
"Mira?" She said, she was shocked so she needed to be sure it was Mira. She eyed Mira from the tip of her shoes to her full glowing blonde hair strands "Too shocked to say hi?" Mira said after a long period of silence "don't bother you're the last person I would like to hear a hi from" Mira walked passed her as confidence as a queen " before she moved forward she turned back to pam "you were always a fake friend, that's what makes you ugly" Mira smirked and left"You're not cool" the friends pam was with said and left her to talk to someone else, pam felt disgraced and just stood in one corner regretting all she did to her friend Mira, but it was too late now Mira was beyond her level, she can't stoop too low to apologize, she'll better swallow it.The day went fast as Mira had prayed for it to move on, so that she would get home and rest, she was completely exhausted by the time Luke came to pick them up and take them back home."Please tell Alex to bring my dinner to my room, I so
Just after breakfast Mira heard the voices of Luke and Lucie greeting Loren."You guys came a bit early" Mira said"Yea, Loren called us to come by early for breakfast that she made extra cookies" Luke said"Ohh, thank goodness. You guys she have your breakfast while I go and clean myself up the get ready for you people" Mira said"Mira?" Lulu called to her friendShe walked to catch up with Mira at the stairs."What wrong?" Mira asked"Your stomach, what happened to it?" Lulu asked wondering why Mira's stomach was as flat as that of a modelMira rubbed her stomach and smiled "it's there but you can't see it" Mira chuckled"Hmm, I don't understand. I'm look right at it" lulu said"Caleb helped me do some magic on it, he has a few gifts. So he casted a spell on my body, no one will know I'm pregnant except I tell them" Mira explained"Wow, that crazy. But who's Caleb" lulu asked"Alex beta" Mira replied"Ohh, this is better of. So those bitches won't say shit about you in school. I bet
Lucie was intrigued with the beautiful of nature for ones, she had never really like nature but as she stood there it was as if something was calling her to it.She walked out side, ignoring the the instructions Hugh gave to her. She ventured inti the woods, something was pushing her but she knew nothing about it, soon she arrived at a river side that looked really beautiful."I knew you would be here" Hugh said from behind herLucie yelp in fear "you startled me" said holding her chest"You almost made me run mad by just leaving the house without saying anything, if you get missing or in the hands of the wrong werewolves what will I say to Luke" Hugh saidLucie knew he was serious so she didn't say anything annoying instead she just said sorry."It's fine, I get you like the place" Hugh smiled softly at her"Yea" she nodded slowly "but that was fast how did you get her so fast" Lucie asked "You were the one that was so slow" Hugh ChuckledWhen he had checked for her in the living ro
