*Sienna*I sit down comfortably with Mei at my side, and we both start enjoying our breakfast; toasted bread with butter and honey is my favorite, and Ro ensured it would be prepared for me every morning. I smile at Marina, the maid, and she bows her head and smiles as her hands leave the plate in front of me."Don't you ever get bored of always having the same thing?" Mei asks and I chuckle."I might, one day, but not any time soon," I grin as I answer back.We enjoy our breakfast with small comments about the weather and the different activities we could do when they walk into the room.Solange is everything Mei described; from the way she walks, the way she stands, the way her hands move. She exudes royalty and class, and her face reflects her disdain for everything she sees around her; including me.Deidre on the other hand walks in with a mischievous smile; she stands tall and with a class no less than Solange's, but she wears a mask to disguise her disdain towards me. I remember
*Roharu* I rush into the living room and find Sienna sitting there, Mei Li close but not at her side. I worry about what happened, but they didn't tell me much when they called me. Cael is also here and he nods at me."What happened?" I ask and Sienna looks at me, her eyes filling with tears when I reach her. "Calm down, please."Kall walks in and nods at me as well. "Deidre is ok, she is still shocked, but she is fine. The doctor is checking on her and wants to speak to you as soon as you can Roharu."I nod but hold Sienna close, pulling her to my arms. "I still want to know what happened. Mei Li?"She looks at me and I can see she is still a bit confused. She nods. "We were having breakfast, Solange and Deidre joined us; they were polite at first, but then Deidre said some nasty things…" her voice trails as she looks at Sienna.I frown and feel my anger rise. "Did she hurt Sienna? Did she dare to do something to her in my absence?"I am ready to punish her but something confuses me
*Sienna*It is interesting how these past three days neither Solange nor Deidre have set foot into the house. I am sure they are not happy with whatever happened to me, and Ro hasn't left my side either, because he wants to be with me when, whatever I can do, happens.The truth is, knowing he is here with me, makes me feel safe, and what happened with them was when I felt angry and helpless. I focused my anger and decided to make a stand. I still believe that Ro's presence here will just bring peace to me. And I don't want anything else, I am not happy I put Deidre under such distress."Are you going to get ready?" Ro asks, pulling me away from my deep thoughts.I smile at him. "I just need a few more minutes," I grin with the thought of our date.He invited me to go out and it really makes me more than happy to go out and spend some quality time with him. I have been locked in this place for a while.I pick up a jacket, just in case, and after looking at myself in the mirror, I go me
*Roharu*As I try to think of the best way to keep Sienna protected, I extend my pack call and mentally reach those closest. A chain of reaction ignites and soon they are all aware.What I can see through the window of the main door is a car that crashed against the left wall that is about two miles away from the house; two rogues came out of the car and are scouting the land.-'Alpha, we are on our way back. Do you think you can hold them until we are there?'- Xavier sends to me and I frown.-'They have no chance, I am not worried about these two. I can take them. I want you to survey the area to see if there are any others,'- I order back and feel their mental nod.Sienna has her eyes wide as she tries to look through the window and see what is happening. I sigh, as I don't want to leave her alone. "Two wolves are on the grounds, and I need you to follow every word I say."She nods. I pull her with me and we climb the stairs and reach the second floor. I never thought I would need
*Sienna*We drive past the gates and we arrive at the manor. There is a rush to everything we do, and everyone around is moving and getting something done; I see other people arriving as well in cars. The usual staff is tense and rushing through the house, I even see Deidre and Solange standing nervously at the entrance door.Ro stops the car and gets down quickly, I open the door and he is already extending a hand to help me out. His arm tightens around my waist as he looks around, scanning our surroundings. We walk to the front door and we stop, watching them.He lets go of me briefly, and walks to the both of them; they stare at each other for a while before finally, he opens his arms and they both walk into his embrace. "An attack on me and your Luna is an attack on our pack. And you, all of you, are too precious to me," he kisses the top of their heads and I don't feel jealous at all, I find the gesture protective and endearing.They nod and remain silent. He then lets them go a
*Sienna*Solange says I need to do whatever I did to Deidre, and I try to focus and remember; I felt trapped in a bubble, and I focused on a knife. That knife became a visual aid to burst that bubble in my head, and then somehow I transferred it to her.How can I do this on him? He makes me feel sick, I feel like I want to puke and my stomach churns in discomfort. So what can I use against him?Solange is holding my hand tightly and I know Ro is anxious; they don't want to let me go, they don't want me to be a coward, and I want to help. I need to do this. I have to.I close my eyes and try to find a way; toxic? What would I use to quench toxicity? If it were in the air, I would use wind. But to my body? My skin? What can I use? Water.I open my eyes and visualize water; that powerful element that can erase everything. I stare at the man who is obviously in discomfort, and quickly I notice he doesn't care so much about me, but he is focused on Ro now. Is he trying to hurt him?I panic
*Roharu*I am still shocked by the revelation of what that man told us; this is evidence of a direct attack towards us and it has links to Gregory. But are they good enough to be used against him and accuse him publicly?I am far from getting real evidence; people might say I just coerced that scum to give out a name. Then there is the chance Gregory will just deny having any knowledge of what his Beta was doing.Everything is too complicated, especially when I know there were more people involved with the murdering of my father and the recent attacks towards our pack. I have to step up my game and find a way to make a stand.Sienna is the one who brings my mind back to the present and away from my concerns. She takes my hand in hers and the touch sends a soothing wave to my body."Aren't you afraid?" She looks concerned and I frown as I try to understand what she refers to."Afraid? No. Why would I be?" I trap her in my arms as I pull her closer."I don't know why I am the way I am,
*Sienna*I leave my phone on the side table and I try to wrap my head about what I am going to do; I need to go back to work at some point, it is part of who I am and a part of what I made for myself.The question is: will Ro understand? I hope he does, and I am walking around the manor while I wait for his return. My nerves are getting the best of me and I haven't managed to eat yet.Mei offers me something to eat for the third time and I kindly reject it. "You need to eat, I can hear your stomach growl from here."I roll my eyes at her and chuckle. "Of course you can, all of you hear everything.""Everything but your thoughts. A privilege if I do say so myself," she smiles at me and I perk a brow."Is it that bad?" My concern is genuine."Only if you are near the two evil wives, I would much rather hear your thoughts than theirs!" We both laugh and I finally take a seat and grab the sandwich she offered to me. Now I hear my own stomach proclaim that it wants more than just a bite
*Sienna*"Oh Sienna, I already miss you, when are we going to see each other again?" Diane speaks through the phone and I chuckle, already knowing who she really misses."I will let you know when I am done with all these tests they ask me to run. I don't know why they ask so many," I lie."I am sorry, really sorry. I know you have your own health issues and here I am trying to go out to a party with you… I will stop now.""Don't worry, it helps as a distraction," we both laugh and continue talking for some more until she finally finishes telling me how my students made a billboard where they signed their names and put mine in my honor.After we hang up, I shake my head at how foreign that life seems to me now; I used to be a teacher, and I had a peaceful life. Now my life is filled with chaos and uncertainty, powers and abilities, and everything next to my teenage crush. I would never give that up.I walk out of Ro's study and I am face to face with Mei who smiles and takes my hand. "
*Sienna*I yawn and smile as I feel myself waking up in the arms of Ro, remembering our late-night love scene. My body still tingles and my skin fills with goosebumps instantly as he kisses my shoulder."Hmmm… when did you end up spooning me?" I ask as I feel his arms wrapped around me from behind."I think after you passed out, which was maybe after your third orgasm," he says and I blush deeply.His teeth grasp the skin of my shoulder and my body feels on fire again. "Ro…" I whisper and I feel him grin."I want more nights like this, in fact, every night should be like this, and every morning, always and forever." I laugh and he pulls the sheets to cover me as he looks towards the door. "You may come in, Emile."My hands grip tight around the sheet and I pull it up to my chin, while Ro sits on the bed and Em walks in.His eyes widen as he sees us, as he sees me, and I can see him forcing himself to look at Ro and avoid me. "My Alpha wants to have a word with you both, when you have
*Roharu*"I want a constant rotation of soldiers to be on guard, and keep them even-numbered. No less than three of them together at all times," I give my order, and Xavier nods and leaves."I left for only a few hours and this happened? I am not sure I should leave anymore Roharu, not even to get books and materials for myself," Conwenna says as she enters my office."Indeed, you left and hell broke loose. How is it possible you didn't know that there were hunters still being trained and used? Wasn't that forbidden?""Are you sure they are hunters? I can't believe it, I am still surprised by what I heard… they should not exist Roharu." She looks bothered and confused. "And I know you don't trust anyone, even me, but I am just incredibly surprised by how far Gregory has gone…"I nod and hit the desk with a fist. "I know, hunters are a special breed, from birth trained and groomed… this means Gregory has been preparing for something for a long time now.""Did you call the other Alphas?
*Sienna*I scream and feel everything that has been poisoning me come out from my body, and just as I do this, I extend an arm and stop Crimson Mist from moving more towards them."You don't owe your life to me, so just stay back," I manage to say, my heart pounding fast and tears rolling down my face."How is this possible?!" the hunter growls and they all seem to focus on me.As I turn my head to look at them, I finally count them and see they are 13. Ro is ready to tear them apart, and now that I am free, so am I. "Last warning… leave our home, leave our lands… and tell Gregory to man up and come fight his own fights… if he dares…"There is definitely boldness in my words, but I don't care anymore, I am too anxious and full of energy that my body screams to release."We are hunters, we don't back down," the hunter growls again."Then you will die…" Cassie says and she shifts quickly."Em, keep him safe…" I say as I look both at him and Crimson Mist, who is still baffled and confuse
*Sienna*I am nervous and can't avoid the anxiety forming inside of me; whoever that Alpha is now, I need to remember that he knew my mother and worked with her, he knew her personally and probably knew my father.My hands are sweating as I pace back and forth, trying to calm myself down while we wait. I stare towards the entrance and feel my heart beating faster as I feel Em approaching, and with him, there is that strong presence that was with him before."I will be right there next to you, so nothing bad will happen. But the moment he begins to disrespect you or our people, I will have his head served."I shake my head and chuckle. "Ro, you are too cute." I lean up and kiss his lips softly before I let him go and head towards the entrance door.When I open the doors and step outside, my nose itches, and I rub it quickly. There is a weird scent around us, or perhaps I am imagining things. I should be, since no one else notices.I see Cael and Kall are already there in their wolf for
*Roharu*The humans are funny and entertaining to watch; they get along well, and they seem to find happiness in the simplest things. I admire them in a way, their life is so easy and carefree. Watching Sienna relax and talk to her friends and students is also something I am finding pleasing; she feels safe, she is happy."Tonight will be a very tense situation, do you think I should have made more tea?" Conwenna stands next to me and just calmly throws me a topic I was avoiding really hard."Yes, you should have. So much for being a Shaman, don't you think?" I throw back at her causing her to frown and bite her tongue. I take a deep breath, reminding myself she chose to be on our side. "I don't think anything going on right now will be easy to predict or anticipate. Not much of anything makes sense."She nods quietly and watches Sienna just like I am. "Your father would be proud of you, Roharu," she says and this time takes me by surprise. "You are a force to be reckoned with, and yo
*Sienna*I pull some untamed strains of hair behind my ear and I walk through the corridors and halls of the house trying to distract myself; I take a look at each room and make mental notes of doing either updates or changes."Any particular ideas you might have for this room??" Ro interrupts me as I spend too much time inside one of the rooms.As I chuckle, I shake my head and sigh. "I was just remembering our nights watching movies, and I thought it would be nice to turn a room into a home theater. Perhaps when this is all over, we can pick up those old habits."There is a wide smile on his face, one that makes my skin fill with goosebumps, and soon enough he nods and wraps his arms around me. "Done, I will get people to work on the room starting tomorrow.""Oh, I didn't mean it so soon.""No words needed, it is done. I already sent Xavier an order. Now, let's head outside, the guards are letting me know that your guests are on their way."A large bus arrives and I feel excited as
*Sienna*My arms stretch as I slowly start to wake up; my body is still sore from the intense session Ro put me through last night. A smile draws on my lips and my body is immediately aroused with just the memories of his bites and his lovemaking.With my eyes still closed, I slide a hand to where he sank his teeth first and feel the skin almost healed. A light pain goes through my brain again and although it catches me by surprise, I begin to tame it. -'My Enna is awake, I must come to give her a good morning kiss.'-I giggle and not long after I feel his presence as he walks through the doors. My eyes finally open to meet his, and I can't believe how sexy he looks with his half-open shirt. "Good morning," I manage to say and he comes straight to me."Good morning, indeed," he says with another Ro-classic grin. I laugh as he jumps to bed and towers me, leaving me breathless. "I just felt you waking up and couldn't help but come to do my duty."Chuckling, I look at his hungry eyes. "Y
*Roharu*Sh*t. Of all the times this could happen, it had to be now?I see a mix of anger and disappointment on Sienna's face as she glares at me. I can't come with a proper response in time and she walks past me and heads outside. I watch her go and I am still surprised, trying to process what to do next.As I see her reach the door I rush to catch up with her and it is a very uncomfortable situation; she is pretending that all is ok, and I am beginning to get worried.Casper walks towards us together with his Beta. He shakes my hand, smiling at us both. "I congratulate and bless your union, thank you for inviting us again, but I must leave. My old father has a new boyfriend he wants me to meet.""I am glad you made time to be with us," Sienna leans to kiss his cheek. "Be well and I hope you spend a good time with your father and his…""Oh, I am surprised you don't feel despised by this."Sienna shakes her head chuckling. "Far from it. I am not aware of the circumstances of it all, b
