*Sienna*I fell asleep after I cursed him, and I only remember vague events of the day while I sleep.A restless dream makes me shake and kick strange creatures in it, and as I fight with some shadows that start to follow me, a warmth embraces me and the shadows disappear. The warmth spreads and everything calms. Finally, I am able to rest.I start to wake up, feeling somehow relaxed; I remember I had nightmares, but something pushed them away. I rub my eyes and feel myself wake up more. My head tilts and I find Ro's arms around me. Was that the warmth that washed the bad dreams away?I sigh and close my eyes again. Why do things have to get complicated with him? Everything was going well.I feel a hand of his move from my stomach slowly lower, and my heart beats faster. Is he awake? His lips brush my shoulder and I get my answer.It takes all my willpower to push him away and get up from the bed. I look at him and he seems amused. "Trying to resist me?""You can't solve all problems
*Sienna*There is a small surprise in Em's eyes, but he quickly shakes Ro's hand and greets him. "Nice to meet you Roharu."Ro shakes his hand firmly. "Emile," he says only his name with a nod.Then I look at Xavier. "Em, this is Xavier. He is Mei's boyfriend."Em's eyes open wide at the realization. "Ah, the totem guy."Xavier frowns and I quickly intervene. "Mei sneaked away from the library, while Em went to the bathroom. She left this note."Ro reads it first, then sighs and gives it to Xavier, whose face turns from anger to pain. "I thought she went to the Arts & Crafts classroom, but she wasn't there. Em suggested she might have come to the forest."Xavier nods. "Yes, I can…" he trails off as he looks at Em. Whatever he is going to say, he needs to be careful in front of a human who doesn't know. "I can look for her here, I need to apologize anyway."He looks at Ro for permission, and Ro nods at him. "Go get her."As soon as Ro says this, Xavier walks as fast as humanly possible
*Sienna*I wave at Em as I walk into the library with Mei again. I see he has his phone glued to his ear but he gives me back a small wave and then continues on with his call.I sit next to Mei and look at what she is going to read next; 'History of World War 2' and I chuckle. "You are really going to read that?"She grins. "I finished World War 1 before I went to get the token for Xavy. I love huma… Ehm… history."I smile at her and nod, getting back up and ready to go to my classroom. "Remember, no distractions. Ro is picking us up for lunch and shopping after."She grins and I see how young she looks when she does that. I can't help but to get curious at how old she might be. "I won't leave this room, no worries 'mom'."I roll my eyes and laugh as I turn around to leave, almost bumping into Em. "Oh, sorry!" I say quickly and blush. Why does he keep making me blush?He seems a bit surprised too and moves away from me quickly. "Oh, no worries. It was my fault. Hey Mei, how are you to
*Roharu*My rage is boiling as I see the man bloody and almost without a pulse. Solange is holding him to her, and not letting anyone come near them. He needs urgent assistance and she is stopping everyone from getting to him.I don't want to let Sienna see this, but she is furious at me already. I finally let her exit the car and she rushes to Solange and kneels next to her. I see her comforting her and rubbing her shoulders and Mei Li is surprised."He is healing slowly," says Xavier as he crutches and examines him. "He needs medical attention."I nod and he immediately calls the pack doctor who is stationed not far from us. Dante looks at me and tries to speak, but Solange is stopping him from making any effort. "Let him talk, if he is trying to say something, it must be important."Solange lets go of his head and he tilts it to my side. "They are…" he coughs before he continues. "Coming here… I barely escaped."I nod at him and close my eyes. All my focus and attention go to tune
*Sienna*I open my eyes, I turn around and stare at Gregory, who seems to be surprised, and takes a step back. I feel Ro's tight grip around me, but I don't fight with him anymore.My intention is clear, when I open my mouth, I aim it to the one person who focuses my anger. "Kneel."Instantly, Gregory falls to his knees and his eyes widen.His people look in shock, as I am sure many others will be, but I can't look at anyone, just him. The panic in his eyes, the fear in his skin. That is exactly what he needs to feel.I see him open his mouth and so my next order comes out. "Shut up."He struggles as he tries to open his mouth but is unable to do it. I feel the blood rushing through my veins as my connection to him gets stronger, and I can even feel his heart beating faster and his breath becoming more erratic."Put your hands to your throat, and squeeze it." My next words flew out of my mouth and instantly he followed them.His closest people rush to his side and try to stop him; pul
*Roharu*"She is dangerous, but she is also our Luna," Xavier tells me as we walk into my study. "Shall we call the Shaman?""She is powerful, Xavier. And we have to make sure we play this the right way. What they saw can be and should be interpreted in only one way; if I show the Alphas the videos, will they ask 'What is wrong with Gregory?' or will they ask 'What the hell is she?'"It p*sses me off; I was going to get away with it if it weren't because Gregory decided to go after my mate. I am glad he got a piece of what he sadistically serves others. "Call the Shaman, and tell her what happened. If you don't, she won't have a good enough excuse to come here."As soon as he leaves, I see Deidre knocking on the door. "Come in."She is not one to follow orders easily, and yet she has been quite secluded and absent from the action. I know she is not happy with Solange's new bond with Sienna, but she hasn't intervened either."I wanted to make a request," her words are emotionless."Spe
*Sienna*I am beyond exhausted. I did push my own limits by coming down to Ro's study, but I need to use those pleasant feelings when we are close to each other, to recover more than just my energies, but my spirit.I am not surprised anymore by what I am capable of, but I am surprised by what happened today. Even with all that, I can't wait to leave this day in the past.The couch is comfortable and I sit here while he makes calls. He has been talking to other Alphas while I close my eyes and just focus on the peace his voice brings me. This mating bond is both a curse and a blessing.At some point, I fell asleep, and my dreams were empty. I don't remember anything from them as Ro caresses my arms and tries to wake me up. "My Enna, come back to me."I smile at his words and open my eyes to find him kneeled, caressing my face with the back of his hand. "How long was I out?""You were asleep for some hours, don't worry. But it is late now, and I rather have you in our bed, sleeping wit
*Sienna*"I am not sure I can be of much help, but I have three shifters in my pack. I will ask them what they know and to do their research." Alpha Zao speaks and breaks the uncomfortable silence in the room."You have shifters in your pack? Why didn't we know that?"Because it is not against the law, and they came to me willingly. I was not talking about them because some wolves still think they should be eliminated. I need to protect them." As soon as he says this he looks at me.I can't believe people would want to kill shapeshifters, why? Maybe that is why my mother didn't want to be here."I understand, thank you for trusting us by telling us this.""Don't worry, I am showing reciprocity. You showed us your biggest secret as well." Alpha Zao looks again at me and I sigh. "I know you felt like you were all alone, but if it makes you feel better, I will bring them here so they can talk to you and you learn from them.""That will be much appreciated, Zao." Ro puts his hand on my ba
