Fleki’s POVThe air around me had become unpleasant the moment Lustre had to leave, as much as she was antsy for reasons I didn't understand when she was seated beside me, she was the least annoying thing about having to sit through the ball.I only honored Silvercrest’s ancient traditions that fostered healthier pack relations by organizing elaborate balls because it was a required formality, and I was a leader that followed the rules of tradition by the book especially after being brought up and nurtured by an elder. Yet, for once I had a date to the ball that I didn't absolutely despise and I would've loved to enjoy her company. At first when I’d noticed that she was nervous, I’d felt inclined to take her mind off whatever had her looking so unsettled.From what I’d gathered, I assumed that she wasn't familiar with formal gatherings like balls and I’d placed her as the center of attention at the first ball she’d been opportune to attend. So of course, the concern I felt for her wa

Fleki’s POVThe decision to abandon my duties at the ball completely wasn't one I’d settled on easily, but I knew that if I didn't leave to find Lustre myself, I’d fucking lose my mind wondering where she’d been and what had held her up for such a long time.The bathroom stalls were outside the hall, yet a part of the same building. However, it was a walk that would take anyone a few minutes at a steady and normal pace. But since I wasn’t just “anyone” and I was on a mission to find Lustre, I took long and intentional strides to get to my destination much faster.One foot in front of the other, and I’d arrived at the bathroom stalls in no time. My eyes wandered around like I was on the unfamiliar ground until I found the hallway that led to the women’s bathroom stalls.I walked slowly toward the female stalls because I’d wondered what to do when I arrived there, barge in, and run into another woman asides from Lustre. Would I have to knock on all the doors until I found Lustre? What i

Fleki’s POV“Fucking come again, I dare you!” I roared as I watched him struggle for air under my tight grip. Since I’d raised him above ground, his legs also flailed helplessly as he tried without any luck to release himself from the death grip I had him in. His eyes were blood shot and he could also release helpless and pathetic gasps from the disgusting lips that had dared to speak of Lustre like he’d stood a chance with her. As I remembered how unnerved Lustre had looked when I arrived, I realized that he must’ve also put her in an uncomfortable situation and it only aggravated my wrath much more. In that moment, I’d seriously considered snapping his scrawny neck in between my fingers and killing him, and the idea appealed to me more than it should've.“Lustre is mine” I breathed into his ears while I still held him up by his neck.“I can imagine that you're a lot of things, but I didn't think you’d be dumb enough to go after what's mine” I could feel his resolve to fight back w

Fleki’s POVIn mere seconds of strengthening my focus and attempting to mind-link Reid, I’d gotten a hold of him and I could feel his mind invade mine in a bid to search for a command if I’d given one out yet.“Reid, can you hear me?” I shut my eyes briefly as I reached into my mind’s eye to listen for his reply.“Yeah, Fleki. Is something wrong?” He replied within seconds and I knew that his question had arisen because he’d felt my anger seep through the link I’d created between us.“I need you to get some guards to throw some asshole off my property immediately” I couldn't deal with Luca’s increasingly annoying presence so I’d prefer if Reid took care of the rest because I didn't trust anyone else to do it right.“Who’s the asshole and where’s he?” He responded promptly and I could feel our connection strengthen as he began to move in the direction where I was.“I see you're using the mind link to find me?” I voiced my observation as I felt the bond grow with every passing second.“

Reid’s POVAfter I’d ensured that everyone had left the hall and the ball had been completely dissolved, my thoughts returned to where they truly belonged all night.Miimii.Right before I was torn away from her by Alpha Fleki’s mind-link commands, we’d just considered leaving the ball to walk through the garden. Miimii had gushed about how lovely the garden looked since new flowers were groomed in preparation for the ball, and her eyes had lit up with glee as she went on and on about her favorite thorn roses.It's odd that she’d be obsessed with thorn roses I guess? But upon asking, she explained that she was intrigued that something so beautiful could be so fierce at the same time. That alone had given me some perspective as to why she bothered to keep my company when I was so obviously flawed and scarred by the trials of war.Yet, I’d decided to enjoy my time with her and make every single second count until she realized that I wasn’t good enough and neither did I deserve her.

Fleki’s POVThe incessant bird chirps that reminded one of daybreak began to fill my ears slowly as I sleepily moved in my bed. I pulled a pillow over my eyes instead of getting up immediately and cursed the birds for choosing to ruin the lovely rest I’d been enjoying.As much as I’d hated that I was being woken up, I felt oddly relaxed and that's why I wanted to be lured back to sleep. It had felt so good to not be awoken by a bead of sweat or by a minor noise in my room that wouldn't have startled a normal person.I’d also noticed that rays of sunshine had also trickled past my curtains and made their way into the room. This was a usual rite of passage for many persons that were awoken at normal hours of the morning, but for someone like myself who was usually awake before the sun rose, it was extremely odd that I’d awoken to an already risen sun on this day.Still, I lay in my bed and held on to the pillow I’d previously used to cover my eyes as I enjoyed the thought of having had

Lustre’s POVTheatrics had never been my strong suit, and I never enjoyed being in the middle of it —or even worse— being the cause of it. Despite that, the night of the ball had placed me in a gravely uncomfortable situation that I couldn't tear my eyes away from.I was more than certain that Alpha Luca had decided to use the fact that he’d only approached me to compliment my beauty to ensure that Alpha Fleki didn't have any suspicions concerning me. As emotionally daft and immature as Alpha Luca could be, he wasn't one to throw the possible results of a mission we’d been running for months out the window just to satisfy his ego’s needs.So, of course, he took the fall for both of us and got on Alpha Fleki’s nerves to completely take the spotlight off of me. As much as my nerves still left me in an unrecognizable state where I could only stare at the scene before me, I was a tad bit grateful that Alpha Fleki barged in right before Alpha Luca was able to have his way with me.I knew w

Lustre’s POVEvery failure is truly a blessing in disguise because I’d realized that my failure to get on my feet because of how sore I’d been, had now turned into an avenue for a breakthrough in my mission since Alpha Fleki had seen it fit to invite me to sleep in his bed for the night.While I practically limped and supported myself by placing a hand on the walls as I went back to Alpha Fleki’s chambers, a brilliant idea had taken root in my mind. I’d decided that there was no more perfect opportunity than the one I’d just gotten to be in his space while he slept.I knew that after the events at the ball she the humiliation that Alpha Luca had had to swallow in so that he wouldn't sabotage our mission, he’d require tangible information to calm his nerves and finally retaliate by taking advantage of Alpha Fleki’s weaknesses.So, to placate him, I’d decided that instead of sleeping all through the night at Alpha Fleki’s side, I’d much rather snatch this rare opportunity to snoop aroun
