Romeo POV
The doctor came and checked on Stella. Apparently, she was in so much distress that she passed out. He confirmed that she was getting her wolf, and he was mesmerized to know that she had elemental powers. The doctor tended to some injuries she had on her forehead and some bruises and cuts on her body and told me to let her rest. He sent a nurse to perform some tests on her, including a rape kit. I was so upset that I couldn't stay in that room for another minute.
“Corey… Can you come for a minute?” I mind-linked him. “Yes, Alpha…” He quickly answered. In a matter of minutes, he was knocking on my door. I opened the door only to be greeted by Nate, Corey, Elliot, Zack, Jack, Gus and Morgan. “Hum, Alpha, we are very concerned…” Morgan said, and I was surprised to hear Morgan's voice, he was a fierce warrior, with very few words on his account.
“I know
Romeo POVSomething bigger than me made me confess my feelings to her. I was not expecting her to reciprocate and said that she loved me back. I wanted to kiss her and wrap myself in her, but I knew she was vulnerable and hurt, and I needed to control Max from taking over and mating her.I knew that she needed time to recover, to get herself together, and some more time to get to the point that she willingly trusted me. I would have to be patient, but I knew that somehow we would get there.After our confessions, I took her bag inside the bathroom, and she changed by herself. Luna Martha ordered an Omega to bring food for her to my room. There is no doubt that she is a great Luna and host. I took Stella into the couch that was inside my room and forced her to eat something. “Romeo, tomorrow we need to scan the area, I am pretty sure the rogue wolves are located there…” She said and I looked at her, I c
Romeo POVI was desperate, Stella found out in the worst possible way about my mom's plan on making Paige my Luna. I was speechless at her reaction, I could see how hurt she was, I could feel her rage and her disappointment. She asked Nathan, as her commander, to relieve her from her mission here, and he agreed. He even agreed on taking her back to Royal Pack, but to my surprise she wanted to go back to Silvercrown.Max was desperate, we could feel her feelings, and we had to endure our own pain. I denied her request to leave the Royal Pack, but she kept asking, until she faced me. I hope someday I can erase from my mind the look on her face. Her eyes were bloodshot red, her gaze screamed pain, her whole demeanor told me that I broke her.When I kept denying her requests, before Nathan could agree to more nonsense, she faced me, pulling herself together and just said “How dare you?...” I know I have no right
Stella POVI hated the position Romeo placed me in all of this. Nate opened the door to the room and I entered. I was terrified of finding Romeo waiting for me in there, but to my surprise he was not inside the room.I let out a deep breath in relief, but then Nate spoke. “He will be back, you know?... He just went out running, he needed to burn some steam.”I lowered my head and whispered “Life is not fair…” Nate laughed,“Stella, please try to hear him. I know you are hurt and I know everything points out to him being a player, but I have known him since we were kids, he is a good guy, too good for his own good. He loves his pack and kingdom, and would be able to sacrifice everything for the wellbeing of everyone. He is under a lot of political pressure, and there is some information that you need to know before you pass judgment on his actions.” Nathan pl
Romeo POVI was pleading with Stella, trying to get her to understand that I do care for Paige´s feelings, but if I have to make a decision between Paige and her, it will always come down to her. I would choose her thousand times over. I know that my decision will hurt Paige somehow, but I am not willing to let Stella go. I can´t let her go.I got interrupted by Nathan mind linking me. “Alpha, we have a security breach at the North, rogues…” I stood up and my whole demeanor changed. I am responsible for the lives of so many werewolves… Including the ones of this pack.I stood up and looked at her. “The pack is under attack. I know you can't stand me at the moment, but I need your eyes in the command center.” I said to her, she quickly composed, cleaned her eyes, let out a sigh, and nodded. “Good, let's go…” I said to her,She entere
Romeo POVI tried to reach out to Stella after the whole rogue ordeal was over, but she dismissed and called me Alpha. She has never addressed me formally, and it really hurts the way she is ignoring me. I couldn't help but let out a low growl, when Corey asked her if she was alright, and she just held him in a tight embrace. I know he is gay, I know he is just like a big brother to her, but my Alpha posesiveness and jealousy beat me to it.She managed to leave one rogue unconscious, so Nate commanded Jack and Elliot to take him to the dungeons for questioning. As soon as the rest of the team scattered Nate came up to me “That was intense, bro…” He said, patting my back.“Yes, she is really upset with me. I think I lost her forever…” I said defeated, placing my face in my hands.A loud gasp sounded at the door. “What the hell happened Nate?” Rose's voice sounded in the hallway.“
Romeo POVRose was resourceful. She asked me to plan something special for Stella. She suggested several things and made a list of her friends' favorite romantic musts.It was like working with a secret intel agency. She knew Stella's favorite music, her favorite love song, her favorite food… she also knew what would be Stella's ideal date setting… Yeah, a secret Intel agency, for sure.Nate and Rose helped me set everything up. I saw a little hope at the end of the road. Having Rose rooting for us was a big encouragement. Because having to deal with Stella was one thing, but dealing with Stella and Rose together was a different one.CrescentMoon has a little clearing with a lake and a waterfall. Surrounded by big trees, it was perfect for a picnic date. It was secluded enough to have privacy and it was quiet enough to have a heart-to-heart conversation.Rose had Luna Martha help with the food. She said it was for a date with Nate. She is covering all my tracks, and for that, I am than
Chapter 30 - Date by the LakeRomeo POVEverything was ready, and I had no idea how I was going to thank Rose, because Stella agreed to come to dinner with me. I will be forever indebted to her and Nate.Suddenly, Max was alerted, and we smelled her Strawberry Cheesecake scent. She was nearby, and I couldn't help but be anxious about that. This is the first time I have done something like this for someone. Usually, girls throw themselves at me, so I never had the need to court someone before, not even Paige.Her soft footsteps sounded against the forest ground, my heart was pounding, and soon my eyes locked with hers. Wow, she is a vision. The dress Luna Martha sent looks beautiful on her. I had to take a deep breath in order to control myself.She smiled at me and her soft voice quickly said “Thanks for the invitation, Alpha…” I took one of her hands in mine and with my other hand I caressed her cheek, “Please call me Romeo…” She gulped and nodded.I walked towards the picnic setting.
Romeo POVI saw her silhouette heading towards the lake. I was hypnotized by her sensual walking, which I am sure she is not doing on purpose. I just find everything she does sexy as fuck. Then I saw her hands reach the back of her dress, and suddenly, I noticed the fabric drop on the floor. I had to blink twice to break away from my trance and realize that she had jumped into the water in her underwear.I quickly stripped down, only keeping my boxers and jumped in the water, following her. Max was pushing me to mate with her, and I had to control him with all my willpower. She was floating in the middle of the lake, and I swam towards her. I wrapped my arms around her narrow and firm waist. I pulled her against my chest, her breast pressed against my chest, my hands roaming her back and my dick pounding inside my boxers. I locked eyes with her and whispered in her ear “ I love you, Stella…”Soon my lips crashed on hers. The kiss was urgent and passionate. The skin-to-skin contact sent
