/Selena's POV/ I knew he would have a forced heat because he was drowned in an Alpha’s pheromone, I just wasn’t expecting that my heat which I calculated would be coming two weeks later would come earlier nor did I expect us to quickly switch back in the middle of a heated make out session. The heat quickly took over my senses. Yeah…this is what my body feels like I thought releasing Chris immediately. I felt scared for some reason, he was back in his body now? will he abandon me now? Will he throw me away? I recoiled from him but he suddenly grabbed me by the neck, aggressively slamming his lips to mine, taking them and tasting them until I lowered my mouth and allowed for his tongue to wander. “Fuck!” He moaned moving forward, the bed pressed me under his weight as he shifted to hover on me, pressing my frame to the bed as he continue to kiss me, his whiskey scent filled my nose, making me slightly dizzy but he didn’t stop until I was gasping for breath. His hands moved under the
/Chris’ POV/ I left for my room immediately after I left Selena’s room, the switch had come as a huge shock to me this morning, last night I wasn’t fully conscious, I felt like my beast had taken over, it was hard holding him back since he almost claimed Selena, and that’s why I almost didn’t notice we were now back in our bodies until morning, I was shocked beyond words and wanted to stay and talk it all out but Eric’s appearance and news of Boris ruined everything. I wanted to get it over with Alpha Boris already. I remember proposing the herbal plants' investment plan to him one time but he had blatantly refused me, what does he want this time? Why I was worried about that, Selena crosses my mind just as often, how much does she know about what happened in high school, how much does she remember, I know it’s been years but those events were major life changers for us. I run my hands through my caramel hair, allowing water and soap to seep through it until it reaches my scalp whil
/Eric’s POV/I acted irrationally I get it. Neither Chris nor I were the type to swing our arms first, I was trained by his father too, and for a long time, we were taught to defend rather than attack, so when I fearlessly swung my arm to the Alpha’s jaw first after Chris’ swung first, I realised, I’ve really lost it because at the time I was reminded of the trembling Selena, I remember her pale fragile body shaking in fear and extreme lust as Chris carried her into the house, even after Chris asked to leave I could hear her weak trembling voice from the door, begging to be left alone, afraid she would be assaulted again.I could hear her throwing up, if Chris hadn’t rushed out of her room, I would have walked in to put an end to her torment because at that moment I wanted to help her, I wish Chris would as well, it’s surprising he letter left, and as I stood at the corner of the landing watching him slipped to the foot of the car while he lowered his head onto his folded legs, the de
/Selena’s POV/ A slap to the face, hat stings like hell I remember thinking as I slowly turned to Lydia who had a face full of great animosity. What the hell? I had thought, too shocked to react at that moment but when she tried to slap me the second time, I caught her hand and landed a counterattack, slapping her hard across the face so hard that her nose starts to bleed. “No matter how important you think you are, what gives you the right to lay your freaking hands on me?” I demanded wearing an aggravated look because I was seething too. “You…did…did you just slap me” I scoffed wondering if it was because the slap wasn’t hard enough since she still wasn’t sure. “Do you need proof- “You!” She clenched her teeth reaching for my hair but I yanked hers first. “You’ve got some nerves really, because I’ve been letting you do what you want, you must think you can make me submit or something, you must be freaking delusional” I snarled, dragging her by the hair before shoving her agains
/Chris’ POV/ I’ve never been more alarmed than I was when I heard Lydia was fighting Selena, I kept worrying something might have happened to her, my head drawing speculations, we might not be getting along right now but she was still my mate and I intend to do anything to protect her. And one of the series of steps is slowly establishing her authority as the Luna, that way no one would dare look at her in the face again and that’s the reason I had Lydia give up the responsibility of leading the she-wolves council, after all, it was Selena’s responsibility to begin with, I was a fool to think Lydia would take it well. I didn’t think she’d go attack Selena because of it, I mean I knew she was short-tempered and angry but, attacking the Luna straight up counts as treason, it could lead to banishment. I’m yet to deal with Jenny after what she’s done and now Lydia, my head hurt. When I got to the house and saw Selena’s cheek stained by blood, I almost lost my cool and ripped Lydia’s thr
/Chris’ POV/ I don’t know how to feel about Selena running off on me like that, it seems we had a lot to talk about but suddenly she was running off, should I have just followed and held her back? I wondered for a minute before a panting Eric burst into my living room wearing a pissed-off look. “Chris” Oh here he is? I gave him a bored look while waiting for him to tell me why he had had his annoying face in front of me. “You won’t believe this- “If it’s coming from you, yeah probably” I answered nonchalantly. “Are you still mad at me?” He had a confused look on his face like he had no idea what he did. “Oh, I’m sorry. Am I supposed to welcome you with wide open arms after you tried to seduce my wife?” I tsked with sarcasm and he sighed taking a seat opposite me. “I already apologised- “Oh you did? I don’t remember anything like that though” I shrugged my shoulders indifferently. “I can’t apologise for having feelings for Selena” This bastard! I thought turning sharply in his d
/Selena’s POV/Hearing Chris explain and set right the misunderstanding and prejudice I had against him had me feeling the greatest level of shame and embarrassment. I can’t believe that I’ve been thinking he bullied me throughout all these years, and he said he liked me since high school, he might not have blatantly stated that he’s in love with me, but isn’t that like a love confession? But damn it I’m so embarrassed. I I thought covering my flushed face with my palm as I stood against the door of my room wallowing in regret, if…if I had discovered sooner that he was my mate…my cheeks grow warmer as I start imagining what we could have been, we’d have been childhood sweethearts and it would have been easy to get married to each other, the idea of those wishful pasts had my centre suddenly throbbing.I know my heat was yet to end so any small stimulation and I go into full gear, but it’s just setting in. If only I could stop it before then, I took a deep breath inhaling some of Chris
/Chris’ POV/ It’s been five days, five days since I almost marked Selena, five days since I almost lost control to my wolf, and two days since I started my rut. I rut just once a month but it depends on how pure an Alpha bred is, and the mental state of the Alpha. A purebred would normally rut once in a month, but a rejected Alpha would probably rut once in a year or probably twice a year but in my case, it’s the second time I’m rutting because I was influenced by my mate’s heat. I should have known better than to expose myself to her intoxicating pheromones, getting me drunk like a peach mine and now my beast wants to claim her. Being a pure breed Alpha since I was birth to two Alpha parents made me realise how susceptible I was to an omega’s pheromone. I was literally walking on the edge of a knife around her, tipping like I’m hanging from a thorny rope, any external stimuli and I’ll probably fall, so I avoided her, I hate myself during rut, it lasts six days and I don’t think stra
2 months later… A lot has happened since the Willow pack internal conflict, Stephen’s probably swarmed with work but to think I’d be seeing him here. It’s surprising. “Hey, Selena!” He screamed the moment our eyes met. He screamed rushing past the important guests that were roaming the reception hall. I was just going to check on Olly and return to the bridal room but it seems my brother decided to grace me with his presence. “Fancy seeing you here, I thought you’d be swarmed with work” I commented and he grinned. “Caroline said she’d gonna kill me if I miss her wedding” Well they’ve always been close. “How is she doing by the way?” He asked and I sighed before thinking of a response to his words. “Well, she’s fine but she’s nervous like hell- “Well, it’s her wedding, it’s her big day” Yeah, I remembered my wedding, it wasn’t exactly great, I felt like I was following a script all through it like a robot being controlled, I hated every minute of it but now, I’ve come to like it.
/Chris’ POV/“I wanna talk to him,” Selena asked me after we retired to our bedroom, she spent all day pampering Oliver, it was almost impossible to separate the two of them, not like Oliver hated it either, it was almost like he spend his entire life waiting for this, to be held and pampered by his mother, I don’t hate it either too…It was a pretty fulfilling feeling watching them together and it had me thinking, maybe this is why people have children but was with this talk all of a sudden.“It’s dangerous Selena, you have no idea how difficult it is to have him locked away in the underground pack dungeon without killing him…you know he has nothing more than resentment toward you, I can’t promise I wouldn’t kill him this time if he tried to attack you again,” I told her and she smiled.“It’s okay, I’m not that fragile-“You were bedridden for days after that fight Selena, don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying you are, I’m just saying…you have no idea how terrified I was that you might n
/Selena's POV/ It’s hot, my whole body feel hot, this…I’m familiar with this feeling, I need Chris, I thought while struggling to regain my consciousness and when I finally woke up, Chris was right next to me, oozing out thick overbearing pheromones, almost like he was in rut, but not quite enough, I couldn’t take it. He seems he fell asleep while watching me. It’s surprising to know we were in our bedroom, I thought I’d find myself in the hospital after that fatal damage Mac landed on me, but since I was still hooked on IV, I guess Harry’s been here. My whole body was starting to hurt, I need Chris inside me right now. I thought climbing on top of him while slowly rubbing against him, I removed the IV on me and put off the only thing on me and that’s one of Chris baggy top and my panties, I suppose he must have gotten me out of my bloody clothes. He was in a black tank top and gray joggers, but the clothes he had on didn’t really matter since I’d be getting them off anyway. “mmgh
/Selena’s POV/ I was able to go into Chris's body and return to mine thanks to Christian, I know he wasn’t doing all this for me, but rather for his cousin but I couldn’t help but feel grateful to him nonetheless, and though I was weakened by the switch even though it was for a little while, it was enough to get me back to my senses, I can never forget the powerlessness I felt, it was as if I’d returned to when Eric would harass me and I couldn’t do a thing, I felt I couldn’t protect Oliver and that’s a pretty shitty feeling because what’s a mother who couldn’t even protect her son. And I watched that night, his blood getting drawn, Emma and I were incapacitated and Nick who had tried harder ended up in the hospital because of me, all because of that damn Eric, I’ll kill him, even if it means I’ll lose my life. I thought forcing myself to my feet before I found myself at the pack clinic, all eyes were on me as I walked past, the sick Luna…the mentally unstable Luna, that’s the rumour
/Chris’ POV/“Micheal report” I urged my shadow as I stood from Selena’s beside, she seem to be suffering from not just mental shock but the body switch adverse effects as well, they both really need to have that fixed soon.“Sean…has started mobilising all the alphas on his side, I think Willow pack will be going through a revolutionary soon” This Sean sure is greedy, now that he’s tasted power in his brother’s absence, he wouldn’t want to settle for less,“Continue to track his movement while reporting it all to Stephen,” I recall telling Stephen Sean will retaliate and challenge him but he claimed his baby brother wasn’t capable of that, he has no fucking idea what greed can turn a person, Sean is a greedy man and would continue to want more even if it means he’d have to sacrifice a few people, after several assassination attempts on Selena, it was easy to figure how much of a persistent bastard he was, he’s quite a determined person and would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
/Christian’s POV/ “Alpha, we’ve raided the whole grounds and searched the whole perimeter, but the doctor still hasn’t been found” Amman reported. Shit! Shit! Shit! I really thought I’d be able to finish up with this, at least this time around. It took me a lot of time to get here goddamnit. “Any chance that they might have anticipated the attack?” I asked Amman through the earbuds since we all have one. “Not exactly, and after interrogating a few researchers at the site, it seems the doctor left to take care of someone, Sean commanded it. ‘take care of someone huh?’ I thought trying to figure out who’d be so important to have Sean force his doctor out of his precious facility. “Okay, burn the place down, we’re retreating, leave the scientists alive, I might need them to bait out the doctor” I instructed getting down from the surveillance vehicle which I’d been staying in while commanding and overseeing the whole operation. Except things get dire I don’t expose myself, it’s one
/Chris’ POV/ The scent of blood loom in the air, and the green lustred glasses were stained with the crimson liquid splattered all over the place, I have no fucking idea where I was but I do know one thing, Eric was involved in this, I panted softly removing my hand from the heart of the last person standing, I have no idea what they did to me or what they’re trying to do to me because the moment I felt a needle to my skin, Ace lost it, by the time I regained my senses, all these people were already dead, and the last one who I could have question happens to have just lost his life in my hands since he attacked me. About 15 wolves were dead, and I…was drenched in their blood, I know Ace sometimes goes mad if he’s restrained but I didn’t think he’d go on a killing spree. There’s one thing I’m able to deduct though, I’m no longer in the pack and that’s because of someone…Eric! I gritted my teeth feeling a surge in my rage. I recalled him calling me out wanting to talk, yeah sure I was
/Eric’s POV/I growled and dive my fist right into the wall in anger ‘Selena!” I gritted furiously, feeling my rage surge as I recalled everything that happened at the meeting.“Do you have a problem that I’d be leading my husband’s pack while he’s away?” I remember her asking the elders who at first scoffed at her upfront but her confident demeanour and unwavering attitude make it impossible to dare belittle her. I thought since with Chris, I’d start setting things slowly making accomplishments that have them accomplish me as a proper replacement, Selena had one job, to sit still and act like the incompetent Luna she is but seeing her sit in the alpha’s sit, her eyes bloodshot while properly hiding her bloodlust from me made me think my plan might not work, so…I panicked, thinking everything I’d work so hard to build, all the struggles I went through to get to were I was might go down the drain. I mind-linked Walls who had joined hands with me with the agreement that Lydia would be
/Selena’s POV/“Where’s my husband you son of a bitch?” I demanded, grabbing Eric by the shirt as I asked for him to produce Chris at once.“I understand you’re being emotional right now Luna, but you have to calm down” While he sounded like he was comforting me, I could see through it, the mockery he concealed within it.“You son of a bitch you think you can fool me, you called him out two days ago, late at night, you think I don’t know ” I bellowed. I didn’t care that I was at the training grounds, and I didn’t care that we have eyes on us, I just…I just wanted to see him. It’s unlike Chris to be gone for so long, he’s been gone for a day, that’s the longest he’s been away from his pack.“Aren’t you being a little bit overprotective, he’s an alpha…he can take care of himself” Hearing him say that had people in response because it’s true, Chris can take care of himself but this predator, I narrowed my eyes at him and he leaned in and whispered into my ear.“Why don’t you go wait for
