Electric blue

Electric blue was the colour of her eyes,

Innocence and fear were evident in them.

Longer I stared into them,

The deeper I fell into their depth of mariana trench.

Blue was not my favourite colour,

But it just took just one look to change it from then.

Love was not experienced by me before.

But those eyes forced me to fall deeply and madly in love with them.

Her purity was a curse ,

To my evil eyes who were blinded by the light of goodness in them.

Yes I was evil,

Evil like a deadly beast who killed for content.

Evil like a villain who ordered the death of innocents.

But for her,

I wanted to be a hero .

A hero who will save his heroin in distress.

I just know one thing that,

Those eyes were holding me captive.

And I was willing to be captivated forever in them.

They were the most beautiful in the world,

As I saw my soul mate in them.

......

Ezra's pov

It was 4 am and still, my eyes had no sleep.

I was trying but those hazel eyes kept staring at me whenever I closed my eyes.

The adoration, beauty and promises those eyes had conveyed,made my nights sleepless and my days restless.

I tried to forget them.

I tried

But my subconscious mind kept replaying them.

I was still 17 

There can be a possibility that he is my mate.

But this thought made matters worse.

His aura screamed power.

And powerful wolves are more possessive than others.

They are more dominating and demanding.

They consider them superiors and bound their mates in restrictions.

And I don't follow restrictions

I break them with the first opportunity I get.

Especially when they block my plan, my mission, my goal in life.

His hands showed me what safety felt like.

His eyes showed me what adoration felt like.

And I know he can show me what even love meant like.

But the question here is can I forget what happened with my family?

Can I forget the revenge for which I planned my entire life?

Can I be selfish for once?

My answer is no.

I can't 

Those screams of innocents will not leave my mind unless I give them peace.

Multiple sleepless nights later

I decided to go to school.

I was taking out my books from my locker when I felt like someone was watching me.

I turned around and my eyes met with Eric's.

He was talking to a girl but his eyes were set on me.

I closed my locker and turned to leave when he blocked my path.

His face was neutral.

There was something going on in his mind which I couldn't put my finger on.

He was a complex personality 

Understanding him was difficult and this scared me a bit.

"See that day I- "

"Shhh.."

He stopped me 

"Only speak when I ask you to and acknowledge me with some respect, I am not your childhood buddy"

I looked down and nodded showing that I didn't wanted to disrespect him.

"Which pack are you from?"

"Silver cross sir"

"Name and position?"

"Ezra, an omega sir"

"Ezra learn to respect us or else you might end 6 feet deep down, yesterday you managed to dodge my guards, I was impressed by it so consider this your last warning.

You may not get so lucky next time.

Now go but as a punishment, you will be at my beck and call for next few days.

Serve me and pay for your disrespect.

Got it?"

"Yes, sir"

"Okay then get started, go get my schedule from the office"

Bloody basket!

Ordering me as if I am his servant!

But I can't do anything right now.

If I want to live here I need to do this.

The entire day I was running from one place to another

Right now I was standing with his lunch tray while he was chatting with his girlfriends

One of them was that blonde beauty who bullied me on my first day here.

"Poor girl, just look at her, I bet even beggers look better than her.

Don',t you feel disgusted when you look at yourself in the mirror?"

Everyone was laughing while my grip on the tray tightened trying to bear with her.

Eric had a wide smile on his face

He made me his servant so that he could humiliate me further

He wanted to show me my status .

I stood silently in this crowd of unknown people.

Getting humiliated and made fun of .

Just like every other girl dreamed of a fairytale,

I also wanted a knight in shining armour to come and save me

I also wanted my prince charming.

We all want it deep in our hearts even if we deny it.

But you know these false expectations hurt us the most in the end.

When we don't find one hand to help us.

But a hundred hands to push us down.

When we don't find a person who holds us and says I love you.

But find hundreds who point fingers at us and say we hate you.

When we unconditional love others and only get reprimanded in return.

When our hero turns villain .

Then it breaks our heart.

But remember expectation from others can hurt you

While expectation from yourself can make you love yourself

Don't find someone who will love you

First, love yourself so others can love you

Don't look for a hero when you yourself can be your own saviour

I also wish right now that those hazel eyes look at me, those firm hands support me, that deep powerful voice speaks up for me and protect me from the harsh words of these people but I also know this is just a wishful thinking.

"Eric , couldn't you  find a better servant ?I mean just look at her,she doesn't even deserve to serve royalty like you, if you say I can serve you in much better ways than her"

She says running her hands down his arm seductively.

Disgusted, that's what I felt on seeing her.

How desperate can they be?

I hate girls like her who serve their self-respect on a platter to royals like him.

Sure, I was bought up in poverty.

With pennies in my pockets and serving trays in my hands, but never ever have I degraded this low to gain the attention of someone or to get money.

I always managed with the little I have.

The little I saved while working in a cafe nearby .

And I would never steep so low no matter how worse my situation was.

I would never do such a thing to get someone's attention or money.

She had everything I didn't.

Riches, beauty, figure but she lacked one thing that every girl should have.

Self-respect

"Kylie babe don't worry she is not serving me, I am just training her how to treat us with respect, her punishment will be served but not from my hands but by the hands of Xavier King himself."

Everyone around looked as shocked as I was .

Kylie asked Eric to clear all doubts and I gulped.

"Xavier Black as in THE XAVIER BLACK, is he coming here?"

"Yes ! He is joining tomorrow "

Girls started shouting like crazy.

But I was oblivious.

My blood went cold on hearing this news

No, he can't be here

No..

No.

My plans will be ruined with his arrival

Xavier Black

Son of Alger Black.

With looks of a Greek god

But deeds as evil as the devil himself.

He was known to kill without mercy.

Cries of pain thrilled him while cries of mercy irritated him.

He didn't trust anyone except himself.

He didn't love anyone except himself.

He had no enemies as no one dared to get on his bad side.

He had no friends as no one dared to joke with him

He was the most powerful wolf who trained each day of his life to reach where he is today.

People adored him not for his position but for his strength .

He was a merciless beast .

With no heart

No emotions and

No mercy

Girls wished to be his mate but he ignored and hated them with passion.

Girls cried for his attention but he only used them like tissues to be dumped as waste.

He was the only person I was scared of.

He was more deadly and powerful than his father.

My revenge plan was going smooth.

Till this news made it go wll haywire.

Damn man!

This is bad.

Xavier king was the only obstacle to my path.

Eric was staring at my scared face with a smirk on his lips.

He knew I was afraid of Xavier and he was enjoying this.

He made his way towards me and whispered in my ear

"Your punishment has not even started yet, Xavier will teach you a lesson not to mess with his family especially his dear friend, he will break you into so many pieces that you will be a broken soul disliked by all!

Get ready cupcake because from tomorrow onwards each day of yours will resemble hell!"

With this, he was gone leaving me afraid for the first time after so long.

Everyone around me was cheering on his arrival, whereas I was dreading the day I decided to disrespect Eric To get on the bad side of not only him but also my future Alpha king.

Now only time will tell.

Next day.....

Today there was a different atmosphere in the school.

Girls were dolling up with makeup, some were literally jumping with excitement, others were even pulling up their skirts waist to show off their long legs.

Boys were gossiping about him, warning each other not to mess with him, to respect him.

Not only students but even teachers were excited about his arrival.

It looked like a king was arriving

Which was true as Xavier King was our future king.

Our first period started and I felt relaxed knowing that he hasn't arrived yet..

But this was very short-lived.

The next second Eric entered the room.

His next words made everyone to stand up on their feet in attention position,to greet.

"He is here!"

The teacher herself stood up and bowed down to him while he stood outside the door.

"Your majesty!! My greetings!! Please do enter "

Before he entered his aura gave away his presence.

It was a dangerous and powerful ,one which made everyone bow down their heads except me.

I was preoccupied with something else.

I was trying to recognise this aura.

I was sure I had felt it's dominance before.

But where?

I got my answer when he stepped in the classroom and my eyes linked with those hazel ones.

But this time his eyes had something else .

The eyes which earlier held admiration and love were now giving me a deadly look of hate and disgust.

I looked around to see that everyone bowed in respect for him while I was disrespecting him by staring at him.

My eyes looked down to show respect.

But it was too late already .

Everyone was astounded to see me disrespect him so openly

It was a mistake, I didn't intend to disrespect him but it just happened

I could feel his angry glare on me and right then I wished the ground could swallow me.

To make matters worse I heard Eric whispering something in his ear and I already knew what it was.

He just signed my death certificate by telling him that I even disrespected Eric before.

"Everyone please....take your seats."

I heard that beautiful voice speak with authority.

My trembling legs were going to sit down like everyone but his next words made me still

"Except you!"

I closed my eyes thinking that maybe he was telling someone else.

But when Eric called my name my worst fear came true.

I lifted my eyes a bit to see him making his way towards me.

My hands were turning cold and heart was beating beyond its normal rate with each step he took towards me.

When he neared my table his voice made me jump up in fear.

"Move!"

He said in a low deadly voice making my face lose its colour.

I hurriedly stepped aside

He sat on my seat and with a swift movement of his arm threw all my belongings on the floor.

Without thinking I sat down to collect them.

I was picking up my pencil box when he placed his foot on my hand.

I muffled a scream that escaped my lips.

He continued to apply pressure while I refused to make a sound.

Everyone was looking at us but no one could do anything other than watch this show.

I didn't wanted to show him that I am weak by crying with pain and begging for forgiveness.

So I endured with it

This continued till involuntarily teardrops escaped my eyes and landed on his polished black boots.

There was no stop to them as they landed one by one.

He was the same man who held me so protectively that day.

The man who gave me hope

The one who saved me.

Then why was he behaving like this today?

Maybe he didn't identify me, how could he, he only saw my eyes that day.

When my pain got numb and I couldn't feel my hand anymore he lifted his foot.

I couldn't even move my fingers.

The pain was increasing with every muscle I moved.

"Learn to bow next time "

Was his simple warning but we all knew the depth of his threat 

I lifted myself up and during the whole class, I was ordered to stand by his side with a swollen hand and teary eyes.

The class ended and everyone waited for his exit.

He stood to his full height towering over me.

He left without even looking at me .

I thought he would leave me for today but little did I knew that our next meeting will make me lose the only thing I had valued more than anything till date.

My self-respect
