Beatrice has no idea what to think, she could not understand why Duncan was hospitalized when last she left him he was alright and when she spoke to him last night he sounded very fine, now he was in the hospital. As if Salome knew exactly what she was thinking she hit the gas and started driving out of town heading back towards Duncan’s pack while Beatrice took out her phone to call Duncan Derrick and tell him about the new development, Derrick told her she should go to him and if there was anything she left behind he could easily send it to her in his pack. She thanked him and hung up the phone to get her thoughts straight. She needed to be with Duncan and if the situation was as dire as they both thought it might be she would need to be the one to take care of him. And maybe, just maybe he wanted her here. But he didn’t seem to mind last time either so this was good enough for her right now. after all this time alone he seemed to need someone. She decided that was a good sign but
Duncan suddenly felt light and free as if I was dead and free of every burden he had ever felt. Am I dead!? He wondered, it felt that way, he had to be dead because that would make him feel that wayYes I was finally dead!? Is this how it feels to be dead!? He deliberated He continued to drift not knowing what exactly to expect and everywhere was so dark but he did not know if it was because his eyes were closed or there was just no light but he felt tranquil and smiled to himself Duncan was a man unlike any other. While most people found solace in the warm embrace of sunlight, he found his comfort in the depths of darkness. The mysterious allure of the dark and the secrets it held seemed to beckon to him, whispering tales of adventure and excitement.As darkness settled , Duncan's heart would quicken with anticipation. He would don his trusted cloak, woven from the finest shadows, and venture out into the forest that came alive after sunset. With each step, he felt a surge of ener
As dawn approached, Duncan reluctantly allowed his werewolf form to recede, returning to the confines of his human self. Though he longed to remain in his lupine state forever, he knew that the daylight hours were necessary for rest and reflection. But as the sun sank below the horizon once more, he eagerly awaited the next moonlit adventure, knowing that in the dark, he truly found his place in the world and wished he would remain in the dark forever. She walked seductively towards me. Her features were delicate, her eyes shimmering with a mix of compassion and concern. Her skin glowed with a warm, healthy radiance, contrasting with the shadows that danced in the room. Strands of hair framed her face, gently cascading over her shoulders in a waterfall of ebony. But what struck me most was the unmistakable swell of her belly, evidence of the life growing within her. The sight filled me with a mix of wonder and disbelief, for I could scarcely comprehend how I had come to be in this
Candace could not believe his eyes right now and so he blinked and rubbed them to be sure they were not playing tricks on him but truly Duncan was awake and staring at him, he was not turning in pain as he was mostly doing and talking in his sleep he was consciously awake and he looked fine. It had been almost a week now since he was admitted into the hospital and he refused to wake up, it scared him as well as everyone even. Beatrice who showed up later on the day he was admitted, what was worse was that there happened to be a mysterious scar on his chest that appeared to come alive when touched and he did not mention anytime about that, even the doctor he went to visit the day before he was admitted said he never told him about a scar only about drugs for pain and that it was nothing serious. Candace knew his alpha and knew he was the kind of man that would hide something from others so the won’t worry about him and he knew that Candace was hiding something because he also went t
Duncan adjusted to sit properly as Candace made his way to assist him. Duncan knew that Candace would have a lot to say to him and before the thought settled Candace spoke proving him right. “I know you are my alpha but I am very disappointed in you!” He sounded more like a girlfriend than a beta making Duncan smile internally. “You were passing through unbearable pain to the point of passing out and you could not even tell me about it Duncan. Me your beta!” He was full blown scolding me as if he was my mother and what’s funny was I could not stop him even if I wanted, with how pissed and disappointed he was the best thing Duncan could do was just sit and go through his lecture. “You made me take you to the hospital as well as baba and all along I asked you if you were feeling okay and you looked me in the eye and lied to me Duncan!? You lied to me! I thought the bond we had was more than that!? How would you feel if I lied to your face.!?” Duncan knew it would hurt him more than
“Well loving someone and enjoying someone’s company are not the same thing” she argued making me smile in return. She was naturally stubborn and could not give up easily“What you think I am stupid for thinking that way?” She asked obviously offended “Beatrix stop! You know I have never and would never think you stupid, I just find you cute the way you never give up” I said honestly and that made her blush a little“Okay What about me do you think you can ever love me the way you love her?” She asked obviously fishing and wanting hope but I promised her honesty and I would give that to her“Beatrix I honestly love and cherish you and your company and maybe in another scenario or life we might have been a couple but in any situation Beatrice is in then I would always choose Beatrice to you” I said knowing that it definitely would hurt her but if anything my near death experience has thought me it was that I would die for Beatrice and it was cruel to lead any one else to believe other
Beatrice POV I woke up feeling refreshed as I got ready to go out, I knew I had prior engagements in the outskirts of town but my heart was in the hospital where Duncan was, I felt the insane urge to go to him, stay with him and apologize to his unconscious body why I was not by his side all through last night but I knew if I headed towards Duncan I would definitely not leave his side to do anything else and what I wanted to did today was important and as it was weekend I needed to get it done today before a new week began and so I entered my vehicle and drove in the opposite direction heading out of town while wishing I was with Duncan . I drove for a while as I headed out of town, i have never heard of Glinda’s cottage neither have I been there but last night during our discussion Charlie kind of directed me towards it and told me how to find it and so here I was driving to a location I have never visited before with the obvious realization that at least two people I know of want
I watched Glinda’s face as I tried to read her facial expression but she just stared at me smiling “Honey are you going to stare at me all day or you are going to ask me the questions you came here to ask” she said to me breaking the silence and bringing me back from my staring contest that I was losing as she turned and took up her cup of herbal tea and drank from it “Hhm hm” I cleared my throat “Yes sorry” I apologized “I can ask you anything right?” I inquired wanting to know how well versed and knowledgeable she was “Yes anything but I am not promising I would answer all you questions as I have my limits and even if I might know the answers to your question I would not answer any that might have a ripple effect” she responded honestly which was fair “okay!” I said “first do you know if it is possible to have a mate bond for someone and yet the person won’t have one for you?” I asked as I looked at her attentively “Ooh” she coughed as she took her tea cup she was about drinking
