Mondrian

A sudden silence engulfed the area, my voice echoing through the trees, the rogues in tandem reacted to Celene's name, causing the warriors around to stand on guard.

Alex’s head snapped toward me, his eyes narrowing. “Are you sure?”

“Look at them,” I said, gesturing to the rogues. “They aren't attacking. Barely doing anything but the moment they heard her name. See how they acted—wild. See their eyes, it's not on us is it?”

Alex shook his head, turning to access the rogues. The longer I thought the surer I felt, “When I arrived we thought they were staring at me. We were wrong— they were staring behind me. And when they reacted the first time, it must have been to Celene's scent.”

Alex cursed under his breath, his fists clenching. “What do you want to do, Alpha?”

“Protect Celene at all times,” I said without hesitation. “Even if there's no chance of them getting to her, I want her protected. Issue a guard to follow her in hiding at all times.”

Alex nodded, already

    86 Celene The singing birds and Zara’s presence seem so far away, the once bright day and thoughts of hope dashed with the heaviness of pecan words. She was right. Her meaning was evident between the lines of words she never said, and yet I heard it. I had brought my terrible luck to White Fire, putting its people in danger. “Are you okay?” Zara's words of concern break into my thoughts drawing me out of the sadness that was quickly engulfing me, “I don't know what she said, but you shouldn't be listening to Pecan, Celene she is filled with spite. You know that don't you?” She asked, covering the space between us in large strides, her face etched with concern. Tears, large and hot well in my eyes ready to fall at any second, pecans eyes widened, pulling me Into a hug, “ Oh Celene. No. Don't cry. Whatever it is she said, you shouldn't believe her. Pecan is nothing but a manipulating wit—” “Is it true?” I interrupted, my voice trembling. “Is what true?” Zara asked, her chin pr

    87 Celene Trust. It was such an easy word to say, yet so heavy. A word that could either make or break the toughest of situations. A word I had given freely and had gotten punished for it, Although I had learned my lesson with Ella and Christoff I find myself staring into the warm grey eyes of Alpha Mondrian. Thinking would it be wrong to trust one more time? Although the tension between Mondrian and me eased after the kiss, Although I couldn’t ignore the pain and guilt I had felt at Pecan's accusations, the need to defend myself grew deep within my heart. I couldn’t ignore the sincerity in his eyes when Mondrian held onto me, begging me to trust in him. Something about it all felt too real, or maybe It was my heart yearning for the warmth of a mate, the hope that this time around it would be different. Either way, I decided—throwing caution to the wind—to trust him. After all, hadn’t I clung to hurt and mistrust for long enough? Ella’s venomous words and Christoff’s betray

    88 Celene This wasn't what I had in mind when I suggested you rest Celene,” Alera my wolf and now accomplice huffed at me as I sneaked out of my room and into white Fire's library. The library was eerily quiet, the kind of silence that pressed on my ears and made my footsteps feel too loud. I shouldn’t have been here, sneaking around without Mondrian knowing, but something deep within me urged me on. I was restless, the incomplete story of my mother, a constant hum urging me to uncover the mystery behind it all. What would have pushed my mother into giving it all up for another and why after everything the white wolves had done for the people, they are feared and cursed? Stepping into the library, a huge burden I didn't know I had is lifted from my shoulder as if it were welcoming me, wrapping me in an invisible embrace. Rows upon rows of books stretched before me, greeting me, their spines marked with titles that hinted at centuries of knowledge. At that moment I knew, I wo

    89 Celene The Book holding the History of the Silver Wolves felt heavy in my hands, as I took it away from Alex, my breath caught in my chest as I flipped open the first page. Each word sprung to life as though they had wanted this from the very beginning. To be ready and pondered over, Alex raised his brows in amusement when I stumble on my feet, in my haste to sit. “Are you okay?” His tone light, holding me up with one of his arms, I quickly shake my head, my eyes never once leaving the pages. “Calm down Celene, the book..it's not going anywhere.” I didn't bother answering him, he couldn't possibly understand what was at stake, I would finally understand what had happened to my people, why my mother had made the decision she had…I could finally understand my true nature…everything. The book looked unassuming tightly wrapped with a dark red clothed cover, embossed on it, a wolf painted silver, excitedly I slowly unwrapped its cover. The rhythmic pounding of my heart is a test

Celene, you need rest," Alex called, his tone flat but firm, drawing me out of my chaotic thoughts. His arms crossed as he stood behind me.”w e've been searching for hours now and it's all the same. You need to get some rest, tomorrow you continue.” I glared at him, unwilling to back down. “Rest? I can’t rest now, Alex. I haven't gotten any information about the sister wolves or even my mother. There’s so much I need to know and so much missing” “The books will be here when you come back, Celene.” Alex responded with a look of understanding but his voice held firm, “They aren't going anywhere. But you on the other hand need your strength. You've only recently recovered from the last attack and your wolf's awakening.” “But—” “No.” H

    91 Mondrian The clamor and cheers from the rowdy crowd of soldiers watching me spar do nothing to calm my raging thoughts. Last night after my nightly rounds, I had seen Alex my most trusted man or so I thought and Celene huddled too close for comfort before walking back to her room together. What had they been doing together so late at night? Where were they going to? These were all the things and more I wanted to know, and I should have gotten my answers if the next scene hadn't put a stop to my steps—Alex holding on to Celene's hands as they stared into each other's eyes. I wanted to believe there was an explanation for what I had seen, I wanted to chalk it all up as my jealousy reared its ugly head, but after the whole morning had passed and I hadn't seen either Celene or Alex, I couldn't help but worry. How could Alex do this to me? I thought, putting a soldier in a chock hold, my arms tighten, at his struggling. “Alpha Mondrian, that's enough!” A sharp voice, filled with

I wasn't jealous. I couldn't be. I was angry at the image of Alex holding Celene–my Celene. Or was I? The feeling of helplessness, of wanting to disappear at the mere sight of her looking up to him in such a reverent way, annoyed me. I wanted to rip Alex into shreds. The need to prove to myself that I deserved her pushed me into starting a fight with Alex. Those were all the things a jealous man would do and feel. Maybe I was jealous. “What's so funny Alex? You still haven't answered my questions.” Striding towards him, he put his arms up in mock surrender, wheezing. “That's because there's nothing to answer Mondrian. There's nothing between me and Celene. And there will never be—nit like that.” I crossed my arms, and glared at him, “Why not? What's wrong with Celene? She's beautiful a

    93 Celene My talk with Zara put my thoughts in line. To learn more information about my history I needed to ask my father, which I couldn't do on my own, so another goal was created— I needed to overpower Luna Valerie and my father to become strong enough so they respect me. To do so I needed power— more than I already had. Which could only be gotten if I learned to turn, the history book clearly stated the silver wolfs were blessed with powers, and even Alera could confirm, but for some odd reason she couldn't unlock it. Further solidifying my reasons to become stronger, I needed a teacher. I need Mondrian. There was no one more fitting of the role other than Alpha Mondrian. He understood my problem and wanted to help, moreover, I was comfortable a bit with him. I held my breath, my hands growing sweaty, waiting for him to give me an answer. His deep grey eyes bore into mine, holding me in place, “Are you sure Celene? I thought we agreed you should take things slow.” He asked,

    101 Celene The thoughts of the previous night kept replaying in my head, couldn’t stop replaying the moment in my mind. Mondrian walked away from me, his face a myriad of emotions that I could place, walking away from me after that hug that left me wanting him to stay, yet too embarrassed to do anything. What was that all about? It wasn’t like him to act so cold, Mondrian always made sure to savor every single moment of our time together. That hug should have lasted for quite a while before breaking it with a kiss. Although I tried not to think too deeply about his actions, I couldn't help but feel his walking away had to do with the promise he had made to me. Did he not want to do it or was he having second doubts? The thought ate at me all night. Twisting and turning in bed all night, pulling the blanket tighter, then throwing it off entirely. Sleep eluded me no matter what I did or how hard I tried. My mind kept circling back to him— his expression, him walking out without so

    100 Mondrian I stepped into my office to find Alex my beta and best friend waiting for me, his arms folded and his face set in his usual calm and unreadable expression. Although It was his usual look, but something about it annoyed me. Maybe it was the tension in the air, or maybe it was the way my own guilt over Celene—walking away from her—still clung to me like a heavy cloak. Either way, I wasn’t in the mood for pleasantries. “Alex,” I greeted curtly, nodding as I took my seat at the head of the desk. "Alpha," he responded, his tone even, but I caught the flicker of Amusement in his eyes. He knew something. Before I could say anything more, Arlen walked in, his boots clicking against the floor as he joined us. His young face showed none of the excitement he usually eluded instead the shadows under his eyes and the way he sighed told a different tale. It was not surprising, considering the mission I’d sent him on. "Arlen," I said, leaning forward. "Any News young one? Are t

    99 Mondrian “What the heck was that?” Zara’s sharp voice followed me as I turned towards the stairs leading to my office. “Do you even realize how harsh you were?” she asked, walking in tandem with me, arms placed hastily on her hips. I stopped mid-step and turned to her, my jaw tightening. “I was harsh for a good reason.” My voice was cold and fiand rm, Zara’s eyes held mine, “She disobeyed me, Zara. She could’ve gotten hurt or worse.” “She didn’t, though,” she countered, her voice calm but firm, her arms crossed across her chest. “And yelling at her like that isn’t going to make her listen to you. If anything, you’re just going to push her further away. I thought you wanted her to fall for you. This isn't the way Mondrian.” Her words hit me like a blow to the chest. I hated to admit it, but she was right. The look on Celene’s, face when I had scolded her—hurt, betrayed, and shocked kept replaying in my mind. It made me feel sick to my stomach. The thought of Celene shifting

    98 Celene I stared at her, my hand still raised, my chest heaving. The energy I’d felt when I had merged with Alera surged through me, I could feel the electric tension as my hands trembled from the rush. What the heck was that? My mind whirling as It struggled to process what had just happened. Pecan’s stunned face didn't change as she stared at me, and I couldn’t shake the image of her flying. Albeit satisfying that should have been impossible, I shouldn't be able to do that…not with Pecan who had a place in Mondrian's army, rumors about her slaying mountains of men had welcomed me on my very first day, despite her nasty attitude, she was someone Mondrian had acknowledged and I had thrown her with a flick of my wrist. The hallway grew eerily silent, for a second it all felt like a dream, but my heartbeat pounded loudly in my ears telling a different tale. Then, out of nowhere, Zara appeared, her face full of worry as she hurried toward me. “What happened? I heard a scream,” s

    97 Celene I woke up to find Mondrian sitting by my bed, his head in his hands. His shoulders looked heavy like he was carrying the weight of the world. The dim light of the room made his dark hair gleam, and his expression, when he finally glanced up at me, was nothing short of pained. My heart skipped at his forlorn expression. “Mondrian?” My voice came out hoarse, barely above a whisper. My throat burning, and everything felt… off—dull. Still, I reached out to him “What’s wrong?” He exhaled slowly like he was relieved just to hear me speak. “Celene,” he said, his voice soft but laced with tension. “You’re awake. I'm glad.” But his expression still didn't change. “Of course I’m awake,” I said, frowning, as a soft groan escaped My lips. My head was pounding, and my memories were foggy. Before I could ask what had happened, a single memory turned sharp in my mind, and it made my heart leap, excitement fueled my voice looking towards him “I turned! Didn’t I?” His face fell fur

    96 Mondrian “Why would you say that, Mondrian?” The voice startled me. In the chaos of trying to save Celene and then battling Maria's words, I had forgotten about the people around me. I turned around, and there he was, glaring at me like I’d just committed some sort of crime. His arms were crossed over his chest, and his expression was sharp a far cry from his usual expressionless face. “You think this is your fault?” he demanded, his voice harsh. “Celene turning and then her fever? You think you’re the reason she’s like this?” I didn’t say anything for a moment. How could I explain? He wouldn’t understand. “If I had been paying a little bit of attention, I would’ve noticed something was wrong,” I finally said, my voice quiet but firm. “if only I wasn't so selfish…I could’ve done something to stop it.” Alex shook his head, frustrated. “Stop it? Stop what, Mondrian? The fever? The turning? What exactly?” His voice rises with every question, “Celene is an adult, she can make h

She followed up by stating her efforts towards bringing I and celene together. I had been too shocked to defend myself, too unsure of what was in store for me, I could only stutter, Zara had looked at me with a face tinged with a shock that I hadn't realized before patting my shoulder urging me to think about my next steps before leaving me to my thoughts, with a simple excuse. Too shocked to function I walked back into the room, and her pale unconscious face came into view. Was I in love with Celene? Had I been very obvious in my interest in her? Did Celene like me too? The thoughts ricochet around my mind, mixing in with my feelings of worry towards Celene, until it becomes a giant pile of nerves. With a huff, I fall back on the bed. “What am I doing?” I muttere

She had fallen unconscious. This was all my fault, I had no one else to blame, I should have stopped her when she wanted to try again, and I should have been more strict. Despite her being unconscious, her body begins the painful process of turning human. I winced at every crack, her weak body made even when she didn't acknowledge them. Pilling her close to my chest I waited out the turning process murmuring sweet meaningless nothings, while I prayed for it all to be over. At the last pop, I pull off my jacket to cover her semi-naked body, she had been in her underwear during the transformation, and she had feared ruining the sportswear she had walked in with. Her body flushed red from the pain and soaked with sweat, glistened under the sweltering sun. With
