~Tristan~ I knew I definitely got her with that. She had remained silent after that, sitting down there like they just poured very cold water on her. She didn’t want to look my way, her face in horror like I just said something forbidden from happening. Damn I want to hold her face in my hands and ask her to tell me all her thoughts. It didn’t ever take me long to know a girl I just wanted to f*ck and be done with it but just now I told her that I wanted to know her and that would happen with or without her agreeing completely to it. She stayed silent sitting there like I just wanted to kill her. I wanted to ask what’s so wrong with me getting to know a stubborn ass but refrained from it. I don’t want her running so far away again. ‘Is Jessica still with you?’ His voice comes out clearly, sounding a bit worried. ‘Yes why?’ ‘Okay great. Just wanted to know, it sounded so quiet and I just didn’t have a good feeling about it.’ He muttered, sounding
~Tristan~ “How are you Evie? I’m sorry that I won’t have time to keep you company. I’m a lot busy but trust that Sebastian would fill in for me.” I said to her, after waiting for Sebastian to bring a chair over for her to sit opposite me. I didn’t want her sitting on the same sofa Jessica did. Didn’t want my mate’s scent mixing with any other, I just wanted that part of her here, I don’t think anyone else would sit there ever again, not even Sebastian. She looked every bit the same, smiling so broadly. “It’s fine I understand, you have a full pack to run and it’s good enough that I get to even see you. Have been trying for months.” She said still smiling, her face following my face. “Wait what? You’ve been trying to see me, did anything happen to you?” Her face goes sullen for a minute there, I don’t miss it but I’m sure it’s like that because she doesn’t want me worrying. “I can take care of myself Tan and besides I just wanted to say hi to the
~Evie~ There’s no way I’m going to believe otherwise that this girl from nowhere had done something to my Tristan. I was more than shocked to see her here, I wasn't warned ahead or anything so I was a bit taken aback. Tristan never ever brought his past girls to the house. You might be wondering how I know but I had my eyes here. It was completely impossible to do that but anyone in love would do that. I jumped at the opportunity and was glad. I even almost cried tears of joy when I saw the invitation to come over. I was so happy that my years of waiting and praying to the moon goddess was finally not in vain and my request was answered. Just to come and everything squash before my eyes. Of course I kept my composure, I knew from the first glance that she wasn’t just any girl. Tristan never does too young ones as he puts it, I mean that’s the only reason I’ve never been direct and only hoped on him realizing it himself. I gathered informati
~Jessica~ “Where are you going? stay down for dinner.” He wasn’t asking but saying that I stayed. I ignored it, acted like I didn’t hear him because I didn’t want to hear him. I went back to his office— yes. But I didn’t say a single word to him, didn’t look his way and only focused on stuffing my mouth till I finished every single damn thing on the tray. I wasn’t interested with their so called dinner like old times. I only even came down now because I wanted to get food upstairs. I didn’t want to come down for anything and walk in on them like I didn’t know they would be there. “She just ate brother Tan, I’m sure she’s still very full.” The cunny one resounded with her pretentious voice as I could only hear her voice behind me. Thank the goddess I didn’t have to see her pretentious face while she did her thing. I act like they weren’t there, deciding to just rather go up with just a bottle of water. I was done and ready to go back to my roo
~Tristan~ “Ouch, having dinner without me?” Sebastian walked in just at the perfect timing. “Took you long enough” I said with my focus on the covered plates i was opening up, acting like I didn’t know she moved closer. I didn’t plan on threatening her with that but she left me with no choice. “Had to do my job alpha, just incase she made a run for it and escaped you.” He uttered with a proud smile I could expect behind his voice as he joined in opening up the plates. “Wait what?” She broke the silence I thought would go on for a while. I looked at Sebastian first, a sorry look on his face before I turned back to face her. “Who was going to make a run from anything?” She asked squinting her eyes as she looked intently at me. “You were going to force me to have dinner even if I went back up?” She asked more clearly, my face up in a really relaxed smile. “I knew you were smart to figure that out but what I wasn’t sure of was if you we
~Jessica~ They tricked me, left me to talk to myself all through as they busied themselves eating. They actually did ignore me as I angrily said all I felt like saying. And the most annoying part was after all my talking, they’ll turn and just smile like there was something interesting on my face. Finally it was over and I don’t know how I sat through it all but I did. They still just smiled and stood up together, talking over only god knows what. “You didn’t eat anything, it wasn’t to your liking ?” Gianna muttered,asking as she got busy with the clearing of plates and the others joined her to clear up. “More like I couldn’t. How do you think it’s possible to eat with those two looking right at me when they feel like and coupled up with that very annoying smile.” I said through my teeth, hating that thought that I might have told them something valuable about myself. In all sense I didn't but I just was thinking about it, getting angrier by the m
~Tristan~ “What do you mean they were attacked?” I yelled out at Sebastian, my voice thundering. It wasn’t making sense at all. Is it a prank? But Sebastian knows better than to joke with these kinds of things. “Yes boss, they were attacked and he was severely wounded.” He said, maintaining the same position earlier on. His eyes leveled and positioned just below mine. “I need details, now!” I don’t know why I was mad but I was damn freaking mad. That was my freaking shot to call. “I just got news now from our eyes in there and this happened like an hour ago.” He started. “It looked like an inside work since they could easily blow out the whole house. And probably more than half the pack was gone too in just a very short time.” His voice sounded quite normal as it should since we weren’t definitely affected in any way. I was just pissed that anyone dared to take away what I perceived as my right to do. “I want names, but he still breat
~Tristan~ “You sleep like you are not here for revenge, you sleep very calm and so relaxed.” I uttered immediately her eyes goes open. I’ve been waiting and sitting here for the longest that I can remember. “What the hell are you doing here?” She screeched, her hands failing to cover what I’ve seen already. I adjusted a little in the chair I was sitting in, it was very close to her bed. The perfect position to get a good and close look of her. She sat up on her bed, her hand sprawled all over her body, trying so hard to cover her chest that was already covered. “You're wearing something princess, but I’m assuming nothing down there right?” The thought alone was too enticing, enjoying the way her hair flowed right to her back, long, dark and full all the way down to her waist. “What are you doing here?” She asked, trying to pull my shirt all the way down. “I take it that I have a chance with you? I mean you have my shirt on.” I let her see the smile I w
~Jessica~ Very funny, very very funny. Ha ha you think I like you? Why? just because I felt the pain you were feeling? Get your act together Tristan. ‘That was convincing enough right? Myra don’t freaking go quiet now!’ I so wanted to blow out my brains right now. ‘Maybe’ she answered without any interest, her voice was low and sounded uninvolved. Shit! Shit! I should have atleast said something more convincing right? I didn’t like the way he was looking at me, making me almost choke as I couldn’t stop laughing at every sentence I was making. This was crazy! Entirely crazy. ‘Why the hell would he come up with a question like that, do I look like I like him or something?’ I asked, rubbing the nape of my neck And maybe I shouldn’t have asked my wolf any questions She was obviously not pleased with my answer and is not pleased with me. And I don’t want to add that to my worries, because why would she betray me this way and want our loved ones kil
~Tristan~ My eyes patiently followed the way her chest was moving. A sign that she was still very much alive and stable. I couldn’t wait any other second and let myself in to take a look at her. After hearing all Sebastian said, I knew my wolf wasn’t going to be able to calm down without seeing her. There were lots of questions on my mind right now but it can wait. Wait till I am so sure that she’s calm and sleeping without issues. “I’ll fucking kill Sebastian for delaying something as important as this.” I whispered under my breath, confirming for the third time that she was fast asleep now and wouldn’t blink so uncomfortable again. When I came in you could see signs of struggles, her eyes half asleep. Making little troubled cute sounds as she slept. I was going crazy right? Because the sounds were signs to show that she couldn’t sleep comfortably but what did I do ? Still found it h*ll cute because apparently everything about her calls to me in a diffe
~Tristan~ “What do you mean there was another attack?” My anger doubled up as he gave me a not good news. His eyes are careful and anywhere else but on me. Like he was giving me space on purpose. “Got a call from Zach.” “And you picked it in front of Jessica?” I immediately asked as I heard the name Zach. His eyes moved up with purpose, and this time around he looked at me in the face. “And of course Evie? How could you take such important calls in front of them.” I asked, bringing to his memory just in case he forgot that we were not to take such calls in front of others. Okay… we both knew they couldn’t do anything with the information we have. Maybe I didn’t want her to hear all of it and still strongly see me as a monster. It’s something I was working on changing, hoping she could see me in a different light. He smiled awkwardly, looking at me with a nod before speaking up. “They couldn’t hear anything boss and besides it had to be important for
~Jessica~ His words rang out loud and hell I haven’t seen such a disappointed look on anyone’s face before. It went completely silent, everyone’s eyes taking a peek at me and I don’t even understand what’s going on. It didn't register at all until he finally did smile a little and stood up at once to go upstairs. “Did he just say apple?” I asked myself, lost in whatever was going on right now. My eyes turned back to follow his movements but he was already gone and out of sight. I still wasn’t getting it, what did he mean by apple again? I stood up like I was wired to, I needed him to explain what he meant. I didn’t like the look he had on his face. “Don’t bother. I don’t think you should go after him if you just did the apple thing with him again.” Sebastian spoke up, stopping me from moving any further. What the hell is going on? Why do they keep saying that and having a long look on their face while at it … like I killed someone. “Can you exp
~Jessica~ “Do you want to go upstairs first?” Gianna brought me out of my thoughts, tapping me lightly as she looked at me with a small smile. The fact that I might know why that smoke was there made it all worse. “No, I'm okay. I’ll just eat dinner and then go up.” I’m not running away, whatever Sebastian said wasn’t my business in any way. She nodded her head, and walked away with that smile still plastered on her face. Like she was blushing on my behalf. The thoughts I know I can’t wash away from her memory snd she’ll definitely be thinking things about my red lips and Tristan. They would be done any minute from now and I can’t seem to get a hold of myself. I shouldn’t have listened to him say rubbish to me. “Jessica what’s wrong with you!” I hit my messed up head with one of my hsbds. His words rechoing snd Myra recharging the words ‘no harm in opening up.’ “Pfft.. like I was ever closed up. He’s clearly just not my type.” I cursed under my
~Tristan~ I finally found the missing link. I didn’t want any of my men taking this thing seriously then because I didn’t want anyone to panic. Sorry… the word should get too furious that they’ll want to dig out the person without checking twice. I’ve been quietly marking out all the suspects with the names Sebastian gave me that wanted the last lead dead immediately. I had to cross check smartness, strength, reasons and every other thing required to pull this off. The hell no one checked all the boxes at once. What was I really expecting? Not like I didn’t see this coming “You found our man?” His eyes shined brightly, ready for any information I had for him. “Yes, a small list of two people who would likely only benefit from this. “ “So it’s who’s likely to sit as the next alpha king if the present one somehow doesn’t wake up?” He asked, saying what took me literally all day to accept in one sentence. That just had to be it, because there was no other aro
~Sebastian~ I don’t hate my job one bit. I’m right in the middle of two aggressive wolves that could either love each other or hurt each other real bad. I don’t know when I started to care that much but I fucking did. I was too conscious of her movements, enjoyed her harsh talking and I earnestly waited for one when I couldn’t get it because I was busy. Well it wasn’t anything new that I didn’t know of. My wolf probably surely accepted Jess as a female wolf to protect. It was a normal duty to do since she was my alpha’s mate and so I didn’t even think about it twice. Damn I hadn’t played so much, laughed like I hadn’t had any worries when we were in very much a lot of them right now. She was young and I used to think that would make her alienate herself even more after the monster claim issue. But you can hardly recognize that if you are engaged in a conversation with her. Like she was blending and definitely getting a lot comfortable. Something she
~Jessica~ “Why did you call me out?” I asked, standing outside my door, looking at him with tired eyes. “Let’s go down. You’ve practically locked yourself for a long time.” He uttered , grabbing my hands immediately. I don’t move, taking my hand back with force. Nah ah.. I’m not doing this with anyone. Trying to force myself to sleep because I can’t get this whole disturbing thing out of my head. Everyone with each of their issues and guess what? It’s stuck like glue that won’t come off. “So what? I can’t decide to stay away from you people? You think I enjoy it here and have a lot of fun smiling and eating with you guys, don’t you?” I asked, changing the topic all over. I can’t even remember what he said again just now , I was all about what was going on, turning the issue the opposite way as I was silently airing everything I’ve been doing wrong. They are all totally wrong if I did enjoy them.. and thinking now about it, I probably did. “You think yo
~Jessica~ “How did it become so red?” She asked for like the fifth time after I tried to ignore her questions. Her eyes were looking at me confused and waiting on me for answers I wasn’t going to give her. If only Sebastian didnt run off so I could tell him not to bother, that I probably bit myself. Wait, why don’t I tell her that? “I accidentally bit myself.” I uttered in a rush, finally giving her an answer, while she insisted that she put the ice on me herself. “Hmm, are you sure? It doesn’t look like it.” She asked unawares what her questions were to me. Constantly bringing my mind to where I didn’t want them at all. “That it’s Gianna, I mistakenly bit myself while talking.” I said this time around with so much conviction so she could drop the topic. Her eyes looked a bit confused, like she was taking a minute to study it more, her hands trying to run through them but I shrugged them off. I don’t want anyone else touching my lips again. “
