SIENNA’S POVI was jittery most of the ride to the Claw Moon Pack. They weren’t just dangerous and I knew it. I wanted my father to come with me but he thought that since I was able to handle SilverMoon by myself, there was no need for the world to see him in his injured state. That would further only announce the state of things in our pack and that was the last thing we needed.It was his best idea to have me go alone but I was too afraid to do so. I opted for Benjamin to come with me, at least together we had a chance of surviving should something happen that would require us to defend ourselves.“Do us proud Sienna, this is our chance.” I could hear my father’s words to me before I left. Benjamin looked chill it annoyed me. On reaching the pack borders, my heart raced more than it already was in the car. The security alone was enough to scare me away. And did I mention that they were dangerous? Because they were. They had primal eyes, ready to shed blood at any time. And my goodn
SIENNA’S POV My heart almost just out from my ribcage when Benjamin came around. I had my mouth wide open, unable to explain the situation. “Why do you look like you’ve seen a ghost Luna.” He teased, his features relaxing but still holding a confused expression. In order not to give myself away, I turned my head to meet Sylvester, my mate, whom I didn’t know existed but he was gone. There was no scent in the air to tell me he had been here. It was like I had imagined him, only I didn’t. The sparks and butterflies I felt surging through my body and almost making me pass out were real. I could not have imagined those things but then again he looked too good to be real. He was the type of man you’d hear from a book. And yet he existed.I thought of something quickly to say to him so that he didn’t suspect something happened. “This place is huge and someone could get lost. Plus you know I didn’t want to come here in the first place.”I somehow turned the tables on him, making it seem
SIENNA’S POV I stared at Althea with shock as confusion etched itself on my face. Not only was she saying he was my mate but that we both had a huge responsibility? What could that be? “I’m going to need more than just riddles to understand you Althea, what are you trying to say?” I asked barely able to sit still on my seat. “It is what you hear Sienna. If you felt the bond with him, he’s your mate. He’s a Lycan and you’re a werewolf, doesn’t that tell you that the moon goddess has big plans for the both of you?”“The only plans she has for us is war. Why would she pair me up with a Lycan knowing we’re sworn enemies? She trying to have me killed.” I exclaimed pushing myself of the stool and started pacing around. My father was surely going to kill me if he found out. But he shouldn’t have to considering I wasn’t seeing the man in secret even though my heart called out to him and for him. “No one can find Althea, please promise me you won’t tell a soul.” I was on my knees holding
SIENNA’S POV A few days later and my mind was still fuggy. My desire to want my mate with me and my dear to stay away from him were clashing. It seemed to have disrupted my appetite as well as I wasn’t interested in anything else again. I wanted what I could not have and I didn’t have anyone else to confide in. There was so much I needed to get off my chest but there was no one to listen. Not even a single soul. I was seated in my office, a file opened in front of me when Benjamin came rushing with news that our pack was being attacked again. I bolted from my seat and took off as he followed on my tail.The rogues that came around were not as many as when we were first attacked and they looked more frail than the first. But they were still a threat no less, especially with more people dead and others just recovered from their wounds. I was ready to fight, to use the work out as a means to let off some steam especially with my pent up frustration. But they retreated. Like they snap
SYLVESTER’S POVThere was something weird about this girl that I couldn’t place my finger on. The first time we met, my heart skipped and I couldn’t get her out of my mind. I’ve heard a lot about what’s going on in the werewolf society but didn’t think it was as bad they wanting to form a partnership with us Lycans even after generations of fighting. It had been years since the treaty but even then we both liked to stay away from each other’s business unless it was necessary. And the one and only time we met with them again was to renew the treaty for another couple of years. I was in the council room when I received a letter from someone requesting my pack’s help. It was shocking as it interesting to hear. I never thought that in my reign as Alpha, I was going to be asked for help, maybe by my kinsmen just not the werewolves. So I granted it without requesting who they were and the kind of people I was meeting, especially when I saw the name Sienna. It made me intrigued and I wa
SIENNAHot breath fanned my face, the kind that made the hairs on my back stand at attention. I could hear how fast his heart was beating and I couldn’t pin point if it was because he was feeling what I was feeling or not. And I was sure that mine ran faster than his. I kept my face down, refusing to look him in the eye even though I knew he wanted me to. “Look at me Sienna.” He said in a whisper, causing me to shiver. I shook my head in defiance. If I did as he wanted, I was sure I was going to pass out from just looking him in the eyes.I thought he was going to give up and let me go. I wanted him to but instead he cupped my face, sending thousands of electricity shocks through every vein in my body. I pushed against his chest, wanting him to give some space between us. He pressed his body harder on mine sandwiching me between him and the wall.“Let go Sylvester.” I breathed out my voice faltering. I winced at how pathetic I sounded so I cleared my throat. But before I said any o
SIENNAThere was something dark about the fire that invited death to the scene. It was alluring to me, maybe it was because I didn’t want to lost Sylvester just yet. He and I haven’t even had time to bond and I hated the guilt that lingered in my chest. Was I wrong to have lied about my feelings for him and even why I was doing everything possible to avoid him?I stared at the fire with tears streaming down my face. The only entrance I knew of was gone and destroyed by the fire. How was he going to make it out alive now?“Somebody help him! He’s stuck inside the building!” I screamed like they weren’t already looking in the direction of the fire. But I needed to find him. If they weren’t going to help him, I was going to do it myself.I rushed to my feet dashing towards the fire. I reckoned if I ran fast enough, I could make it in without getting burnt and even if I did, I was certain my wounds would heal. But was I ready to put myself through that torture for him? I barely made it pa
SIENNAI watched as Sylvester was carried with blood still dripping and his wounds fresh. He was rushed to the hospital and I wanted nothing more than to be by his side. I was left in the corridor with a few guards that followed. I didn’t care that they had brought him in, if they had helped him a little bit early, he wouldn’t need to be here.I stared at the ground taking in the design choice of the titles. It was bright white like the walls’ pain job. I tried to focus on it, to find meaning to the reason why hospitals chose white as a colour for most of their designs but I couldn’t.Where I wanted to see bright lights that represented peace and hope, my mind decided on its own that blood dripping on it was far a better sight to behold instead. I blinked a few times in an attempt to clear out the images. Tears I didn’t know I had in my eyes dripped on the floor, tainting them.When I couldn’t stare at it anymore, I averted my gaze to a much darker colour. I could feel my veins pulsin
