I wanted to take my kid outside, but i put on a feet mask and didn't read the instructions correctly. it said to wear them for 60-90 minutes. so in that time, I wrote this chapter. It's a weird mask though, in a few days my feet will start to peel. is that the right way to phrase it? it's gross. but I went to the sea with this black sand in tenerife and my feet were really dry. why am I telling you this all? I have no clue. I guess this is what Kate's letters would look like if I wrote them. so Sierra did see it, but was too scared. and where will Kate join Emma and Jara? i will skip a few weeks ahead or mabye even a few months, so time will go faster. hope to have their birthday before chapter 100.
Kate’s pov “So I’ve given you some fucking time, but tell me please. What the fuck is going on between you and Sierra since our birthday?” I had actually given Leia some time, because she had such a special date with Asher after our party that it was extra hard when he left. Especially since she knew he would be spending less time with her once he got to the Eclipse pack. It took a lot longer to get here, so since he arrived at the Eclipse pack three weeks ago, they only had one day together instead of the whole weekend. I didn’t want to pile on by sharing my issues. She had been there for me. Goddess, she was pushing me so hard that I actually was walking and didn’t need my chair at all. “We’re still writing letters, but a lot less. I am trying to keep some distance and share less. It’s just awkward, I guess. She has apologized, but not given a real explanation. It’s not just the whole gay or bisexual thing, it’s also that work comes first for her. So it feels like I’m not a prior
Leia’s pov I fucking hated that Kate was gone and Asher. I didn’t realize how much I relied on them both. Okay, that’s a lie. I totally know how much I fucking rely on them. They’re my whole support system together with my parents. Especially dad, me and him are tight as fuck. But there are some things I can’t tell him. I don’t want him to fucking know about all the things Mark did to me. Part of me feels like I’m protecting Mark by not saying it to, but I am also protecting my parents. I mean, would you like to fucking know your daughter was verbally abused daily and made to feel like shit on top of every fucking thing that happened the night he broke my wrist and ribs, and fingers. Fucking asshole. Asher is the type of guy that doesn’t really post pictures online or I’d be fucking stalking him for life. I know there are girls around him that want a piece of that ass. I have him and I get it. Asher is the best looking guy around and he’s so fucking charming. And they don’t even kno
Kate’s pov It’s been a nice trip, but it was different than I thought. Being away from home hasn’t been that easy for me. I am homesick some days and I think I might have brushed passed everything that happened to me and my friends and family too quickly. Being so focused on physical recovery, I didn't think about the toll on my mental health. One of the Gamma’s daughters saw my scar and asked me about it and when I started to explain, I suddenly realized it was a big thing that happened. “So, you’re saying a hunter came into your pack and pretended to be one of you?!” Uma said, surprised. “Yeah, her dad was a werewolf and they killed her.” “So then she just kidnapped you?” How could I tell this without sounding dramatic. Or make her pity me. We’ve been hanging out a bit and she even wants to go with us to the pride events, but I could ruin this by saying too much. I could ruin anything by talking too much, I still remember what happened when I opened myself up, in the letters t
Sierra’s pov I had been trying to meet up with Kate, I was hoping once I’d see her, I would be able to explain everything. But she was too busy. Every weekend she had some plans. Maybe I didn’t try hard enough. Because my explanation wasn’t a good one. Try telling the girl you’re falling for, “hey I missed your birthday party, because I was scared. Scared of my feelings for you, but also scared what everyone else will think. Because I am freaking shallow and don’t deserve you at all.” “Yeah, don’t say that.” Grace said. “It’s not true anyway. You’re not shallow. It’s actually funny when you think about it. In this regard, you’re just as much overthinking things as Kate does.” “But everything will change, once I admit I have feelings for Kate.” I replied. “Yeah, things will change. But who says it won’t be for the better? Change doesn’t have to be bad. Just think of all the good things that could come from this. You won’t have to worry about this, you’d have Kate as your partner, y
Kate’s pov “I wish we could stay in this room forever, but I think we needed to get some breakfast.” Siera said, after we kissed for what felt like hours. I wanted to tell her, I wasn’t hungry, but my stomach betrayed me by rumbling. Sierra kissed my stomach, “see, your cute stomach agrees with me.” Having her kiss me there was a whole other sensation. Goddess she was so close to me, could she smell how turned on I was? I didn’t want to move too fast. I hadn’t really done much with anyone and women were completely new to Sierra. Sierra extended her hand to me and I placed mine in hers. We walked to the door and I was sure, once we left this room, she would let go off my hand. Did she say she wanted to stay here, because she didn’t want anyone to see us together? Sierra said she told everyone, but what did that really mean? Sierra opened the door and continued holding my hand until we reached the dining hall. It was lunch time by now and I was really hungry. Uma sat at the table,
Leia’s pov “So maybe this weekend Sierra can finally pop your fucking cherry?” I said, wiggling my eyebrows at Kate. I loved teasing her, especially after she always gagged every fucking time I mentioned something sexual. “I hate that I told you about that weekend and what she smells like.” Kate said, rolling her eyes. “But….? Do you think you’re fucking ready or is something still holding you back?” I asked her seriously. I was really fucking excited Sierra and Kate got together, but up until now it wasn't like she wanted it to be. It wasn’t Sierra’s fault though. Last fucking week there was an attack on the Eclipse pack, so Sierra and Asher couldn’t fucking leave. So they had that one weekend and since then two fucking weeks of long distance relationship. Which would be hard for anyone. Asher had been so worried, but my KitKat was here and I was back on my meds. Not for fucking long though, doctor Angela and I had a plan to slowly stop. I needed to know if I could do this on my
Sierra’s pov “You want to go upstairs? I want to show you how much I’ve missed you,” I said to Kate. Goddess, it had been two long weeks and in that time I had thought about what I was going to do to Kate’s body every night. “And during the day, you perv.” Grace joked. She wasn’t wrong though. Kate was distracting, in the best way ever. All I wanted, was to be with her, to touch her. Talking to her was amazing, especially now that she wasn’t thinking before talking. Kate was even smarter than I thought and she was funny and sometimes she was even a little weird. But in the best way ever. But seeing her now. All I wanted was to be alone with her and finally repay Kate for that amazing orgasm. And maybe I’d get another. “Yeah, you’re not that selfless.” Grace said. “We shouldn’t discuss my sex life. Just promise you’ll shup up when we’re actually doing something?” Grace teased me, “I’ll try.” Kate looked unsure, “could we go outside first?” Why did she want to go outside? It to
Asher’s pov The last two and half months have flown by. Mostly because I’ve been either working hard or, - “Screwing hard?” Logan joked. I wanted to say, traveling to see Leia. At least now I had Sierra with me, which was a lot nicer than traveling alone. Even if all she talked about now, was my freaking sister. I liked them together. They worked really well, but I had to get used to seeing my little sister be so affectionate with someone. Especially with my best friend. And Kate and Sierra were all over each other. Especially Sierra, she loved showing Kate off as her own. Kate had changed too, being less anxious and talking more. I could already imagine our futures. Me and Leia as the Alpha and Luna, with Sierra as my Beta and my sister there to advise us. I just needed to find someone for the Gamma position, or I could keep Talia. She had only been Beta for five years. “Are you in a rush to be Alpha? You're thinking ahead already? You don’t even know when your father will stop
Aaro’s povI shouldn’t have said that, but it was the fucking truth. No matter how much this wasn’t Storm’s choice any more than it was mine, he was still going to mark me against my will. Maybe if things were different, then I would have chosen Storm as my mate.I always hoped I would find my true mate, but that ship had fucking sailed the moment I was bought. Maybe even before then—maybe the moment I was brought to the damn school. It didn’t fucking matter anyway.I saw how my remark hurt Storm, and all I could think of to make this better was to ask him to kiss me. I knew it fucking made me feel better. More than better. The orgasm he gave me was out of this fucking world, and I just wanted to make him feel good too.I didn’t know what the fuck I was doing, but he seemed to enjoy it, and to be honest, I was enjoying it too. I didn’t think having someone’s dick inside my mouth would be fun, but hearing Storm grunt and hold on to my hair and knowing I was the one doing it to him was a
Storm’s povI knew if I got pissed off, Aaro would stop telling me the truth, so I let her talk while inside of me a storm was raging. I wanted to go to the school and kill everyone who ever hurt Aaro. I wanted to destroy the entire school and get everyone out, but I knew I couldn’t. I was a fucking hypocrite. My father had bought Aaro for me and had funded the school for years. I didn’t realize where part of our money was going until I checked the books today. Our pack had been giving money to the Goldacres for decades. How could I say I would destroy the school if I still profited from it? If it wasn’t for the school, I wouldn’t have met Aaro.I wanted to be Aaro’s home, her safe place. She deserved that. Despite the fucked up situation she was thrown into, she was trying to do things her own way. She could have ignored my mother like the rest, but instead she decided to learn Dutch. The thing that bonded me and mam together. If Aaro was smart, she would have sucked up to Dad and R
Aaro’s povEve explained the phone to me, but I still felt like a fucking idiot using it. She was so patient with me, but I knew if others saw me fumbling with the phone, they’d think I was raised under a damn rock. Everyone used technology for everything, and I felt like I didn’t belong in this world.To be honest, I don’t belong here. I belong with my sister; I belong back home.But a part of me wished I did belong here. That I could give Storm what he deserved. He wanted a real person who didn’t have that many secrets, someone who could be themselves around him, and I wasn’t that at fucking all. I had to think before I spoke, because otherwise I could reveal the truth."I really am sorry, Aaro." Eve said again.I shook my head, "don’t be. I’ll be fine."Eve sighed, "it can be really hard sometimes, Aaro. I try to put on a brave face for Storm. I don’t want him to feel bad for me, but it’s really lonely for me. I miss my family and just having a life. Don’t get me wrong; if I had to
Storm’s pov"Aaro is bijna klaar; douchen liep een beetje uit. [Aaro is almost done; the shower took a bit longer than expected.]Mam laughed, "Ik zie dat jij ook ging douchen? [I see you took a shower as well?] She ruffled my wet hair."Dus? [so?]""Niks. Ik ben blij voor je. Ze is speciaal vind je niet? Ik durf het bijna niet te zeggen, maar misschien is zij je, - [Nothing. I am happy for you. She’s special, isn’t she? I am almost too scared to say, but maybe she’s your, -] " I stopped my mom from finishing her sentence."Mam zeg het niet dan! Fuck, je weet zelf wat pap zou doen. [Then don’t say it! Fuck, you know what Dad would do.]"My mother knew better than anyone what my dad thought of true mates, considering she was his. Dad and mom fell in love when they were seventeen. Love at first sight, she called it, and then my grandfather got killed and my dad turned into a paranoid asshole. Too scared of what a true mate meant. He wasn't just scared of losing half his soul if his true
Aaro’s povFucking phone. That stupid fucking phone. Phones didn’t used to be like this, were they? I remember mom and dad having a phone, and I sometimes watched videos on it or played a game. But this thing was totally different.I felt so fucking out of place. I knew nothing about this world. I guess that the school does this on purpose. Make sure to isolate the girls once they’re out of the school. Make sure we don’t know how to use technology to ask for help.We’re not supposed to tell anyone about the school, but even if we only wanted to help ourselves once we were out, we wouldn’t be able to. We had no one to turn to and no way to set up any support system. Maybe I should talk to Eve. She had been isolated, stuck inside this packhouse. She knows how it feels, and maybe she knows how to get out of here.I opened the stupid phone again, cursing at it."You better not fuck this up again. Send text to Eve.""Send text to Eve," the phone said."Do you want to join me and Storm for l
Storm’s povI put Aaro on my lap and let her eat."So what’s her deal?" Cara asked, mind-linking me."What do you mean?""She seems nice, but is she like the rest? Does she want you because of your title?"I laughed, "no, she isn’t like the rest. Not at fucking all. I don’t think she cares about becoming Luna at all.""Did she have any say in coming here? Did her parents force her?"I sighed, "she’s an orphan. It’s fucking complicated Cara, but she doesn’t really have a choice. So I’m trying my fucking best to make everything not suck as fucking much."Cara smiled at me, "you want her to like you."Aaro started giving me bites to eat, and although it surprised me, I let her. It was fucking adorable that she cared enough to feed me."She likes you already. She was straddling you, and now she’s feeding you!" Cara shouted inside my head.That kiss was amazing. And when Aaro started moving her fucking hips, I went insane. If Cara hadn’t stopped us, I don’t know what would have happened. Wh
Aaro’s povBrand was cool. He reminded me of my dad’s wolf, Logan. He was as fast as him, too. How would it feel to run as a wolf? Would I be that fast?It was easier around Brand because he didn’t talk to me and I didn’t have to pretend so hard.Even when I was myself, I still had to pretend. I couldn’t let anyone know my real name or identity. It wasn’t easy. I so badly wanted to tell Brand about Logan. I wanted to tell the girl in the orphanage more about Ero. And when we discussed our names, I really wanted to tell Peter what Aaro fucking stood for.It bothered me how scared everyone was. It was supposed to be like this. In my dad’s pack, people weren’t scared of us. And although my grandpa Os could be a bit scary, people respected him more than they feared him.Then he shifted back, and although Storm looked a lot better, like a whole fuckload better, I went back to pretending. Pretending that he didn’t look fucking good, and I wondered what it would feel like to touch him. Preten
Storm’s povI tried to get some work done, but my mind kept wondering about tonight. What would be a good date idea?"Let me meet her," Brand said."And then what, have a picknick? It’s fucking freezing outside.""Please?" Brand asked and I think it was the first time he said please to me."I’ll see what I can do, okay, buddy?"Dad had given me her tracker information, and I felt like a fucking stalker, tracking Aaro’s moves. She went from the hospital to the orphanages, to lunch somewhere, and then to one of the elders' houses.When it was around four, I just gave up on working and decided to pick up Aaro early. I'm sure she'd appreciate it; I couldn't imagine spending the entire day with Ruby.I went to the O'Hares' home and watched as Aaro spoke to a young boy. He must be one of the grandkids or great-grandkids of the O'Hares. Mister O'Hare was 104 years old and looked no older than 70.When the boy saw me, he bowed his head and seemed scared. It was such an obvious contrast between
Aaro’s povStupid fucking nightmare. I used to have them when we were younger. I would dream about Marco taking us away. We were asleep when he took us, but we woke up before he brought us to the man who transported us to the school.Doctor Marco had always been so kind to us, but suddenly he was cold. He ignored our cries, he ignored me begging him to let my sister go. In the end, he threatened to hurt Elora if I didn’t help him calm her down.He showed me bones and said they belonged to a girl, and if I didn't help my sister out of her pajamas and make her shut the fuck up, he could turn my sister into a bag of bones too.For years, I wondered what he needed the bones and the pajamas for. I thought he might have pretended it was one of us who died, so my parents wouldn’t come looking for us. Or my parents were dead themselves; there must have been a reason why they didn't find us. Auntie Kat was too smart to not see through Marco’s plan, I was sure. She was the smartest person alive;
