NANCY'S POV
The offer I'd made to Maya haunted me as I got ready for the party.
I'd really needed her help and the girl had looked about bailing on me and I'd had no choice.
Now I have to find a way to get my 'mule head' captor to dance with innocent looking Maya who's obviously eating her heart out on him.
The things I get myself into though.
I sighed as I pulled the dress I'd been given down my body.
Whoever this Amelia is, she must have some sort of magic or amazing sixth sense to have gotten my perfect size.
The dress looked beautiful and if I was the girlie girl type, I'd have fawned over all the intricacies and complicated but beautiful designs she'd put on this.
I only have minutes counting down from the time I'd been given.
Don't even ask what I'd done with the first hour.
AARON'S POVFrom the moment those doors opened and let Laura in, this party have turned every kind of sour in the book for me.Her clingy ass has been all over me since she sauntered in here and I'm so close to loosing my shit with her.The only reason I'm still down here anyways is that I'm hoping that bastard Gerald drags his sorry ass through those doors.I haven't seen that fucker since that night and I'm getting impatient waiting for his ass to walk into my trap.The way I feel now, I might decide fuck it and go fetch the asshole myself and make him taste his fucking death before I feed it to him."Hey baby, you look so tense."I lazily lift my eyes to the direction of the annoying purr and its pestering owner.Raising a brow at her, I took a swig of of the drink I've been swirling in my glass.She tilted her lips up in what I'
NANCY'S POVI woke up with a throbbing head threatening to blow and bloodshot eyes that hurt whenever I open them.What had I been thinking drinking like a fish last night?Oh yeah, I'd needed all the alcohol I could get to survive high and mighty Alpha Aaron last night.Dude, he's even more stuck up and conceited than I'd initially perceived him to be.I rolled out of bed, dragging my ass to the bathroom, as memories from last night stormed my already aching head.Everything had been going just fine, with me slightly buzzed and totally free in Derek's arms, but then he'd decided it would be rude not to go meet with our host, Aaron and he'd frigging taken me along.For all the troubles he went to inviting me to this, he looked angry seeing me there.Well, for your info mug head, the feeling is mutual!In all my denial though, the ma
NANCY'S POVI'm not sure how long I was out for, but I was very delirious when I came to and my eyes hurt too much to keep open.My head hurt and I could hear voices around me, even though I couldn't make out what was being said.I wanted to wake, I tried to, but it was taking too much energy to even do that.And slowly I lost and went crawling back into the welcoming arms of oblivion again.The next time I came to, the voices in the room were gone and there was pin drop silence.This time I was more determined to stay awake and I wanted to have my eyes open while at it.My head hurt as I moved it.Slowly, I drew my eyelids apart, opening my eyes for the first time since I've been out.My mind was fuzzy as my eyes took in my surrounding but I knew one thing for sure, this wasn't my room.At least, not the one I'd be
AARON'S POVThree fucking days, that's what I spent sitting beside her in the pack hospital.Hating the smell of it and not being able to leave.She's not my fucking mate, she's just some human kid I'm indebted to, that's all, and it's driving me out of my mind that Aragon doesn't get it.Doesn't get that she can never be ours.And I don't want her or any other girl coming to play mates with me.If I haven't found my mate till now, then maybe the moon goddess had been merciful and didn't give me one.Since the night of the party, Aragon have been bristling at Derek's proximity .For some fu
NANCY'S POVIt's been a few days since the hospital incident.I've gotten a lot better since the day it had all happened.The memories from that day were back and they were haunting me.I remember it all now.There had been two men in the pack house and they had been talking to alpha Aaron about handing me over to them.I remember hearing that.They had mentioned a guy named Makal and he hadn't sounded like a nice person.At least, that was the much that I'd gotten before I'd passed out.Whoever he was, what the fuck does he want from me?
AARON'S POVI don't know what the fuck I'm doing anymore.Her wide eyes are too innocent for the things going on in my head and the pool of confused desire visible in them is about dragging me to my knees.The sweet, intoxicating vanilla scent of her teased me, drawing me deeper into a place I have no business being.And the heady smell of her arousal was thick in the air between us.She wanted the things I dream of doing to her, but none of us has any business wanting anything.This isn't supposed to happen, I'm not supposed to want this little, human.She's only here under my protection but it seems all the protection she needs is from m
NANCY'S POV"Rise and shine sleepy head, you don't wanna be late on your first day at training."Jaden's annoying voice floated into my ears, disturbing my hard earned sleep.A groan slid past my lips as I curled up defiantly, hugging my pillow closer to my body, silently daring him to ruin this for me.'Fuck training,' I thought.Not like I wish to spend my mornings watching sweaty werewolves fight each other.But Aaron, the alpha, had ultimated that I join training now that I'm better and back on my feet.That fucker hadn't even given me a choice.Like it's his nature, he'd commanded in h
NANCY'S POVBut he was and he was smoking like a fucking furnace.I wonder how someone can look this royally pissed this early in the morning already.The training ground is a seemingly endless expanse of land and it was already full.I looked odd in my clothes as everyone else was wearing their training clothes, much similar to the one that had been in that box.I hate standing out and now I wished I had given in and had worn that.Jaden, that bastard, left me standing alone and confused as he went ahead to fall into line in the crowd of bustling werewolves, rearing to go.I could feel Aaron's glaring eyes on me and wished I could j
NANCY'S POVI ran out of my room, hurrying down the hall and stairs in a blind race to find him, stopping myself from considering the possibility of someone else still lurking in here looking for who to harm.It'd really suck for me to die now, without even getting to at least have a proper boy or get married and have kids.Hell, I haven't even lost my V-card yet.I needed to find him and fast before whoever that guy is gets further away and out of reach.I knew for sure that he wasn't in his room because I'd watched him take the stairs but I have no fucking idea where he'd be in this insanely large house.Fuck."Aaron." The name was like a small prayer on my lips as my eyes darted around the sitting room I just ran into, with lots of pairs of eyes staring at me like I'm a freak.I ignored the looks, focusing my thoughts on the only thing that mattered in the moment, the more time I take in finding him, the further that man can get and that will be it.He'd be gone and if he'd been
NANCY'S POVHe kissed me.Of all the people in this house, Aaron was the last person I'd been expecting to see at the other side of my door when I'd heard the knock.I'd thought it was Jaden coming back to give me one more dose of his warnings to stay indoors until everything have been sorted and the killer caught.But when I opened my door, I find Aaron there instead, his face washed with sudden relief?Before I could ask if there was any problem or if he needed me to go over the details of my dreams one more time, because that's what everyone seems to be interested in today, he just........kissed me.Yeah he did, just closed the distance between us and covered my lips with his and I swear I don't know what to do with him.One minute I'm indoors as instructed, grieving over the sad news I'd just received and the next, I'm in his arms, his lips crashing down on mine.There's nothing hungry or coarse in the soft glide of his lips against mine or the pleading probe of his tongue begging
AARON'S POV The girl looked like she'd been terrified before she'd died. She had her eyes open even in death and the horrors of her last moment reflected in her lifeless eyes. The memory of the dream that loudie had painstakingly described to me sat dominantly in my head, the coincidence of the two was to perfect to leave me in comfort. Loudie, she reminded me of a Saura. The blessed wolves of the moon goddess. It's been so long since we've had those in our packs. And the chances were slim because she was human. She confuses the hell out of me and it was hard figuring her out. And somehow she's managed to crawl under my skin and remain there. I ordered for the body to be taken to the lab for post mortem examinations and the rest of the protocols before she's laid to rest. I want to know everything I can on what had happened to her. It had been my fucking duty to prot
NANCY'S POVI woke up late from my long, dreamless sleep.He was gone by the time I did, but I couldn't get over the fact that he'd come for me at all.He's the reason I was able to sleep back after that horrible dream that I'd had last night.It had felt so safe and secure in his arms, like nothing in this world could touch me in their security.Not that I expect this to change anything between us.I've learnt to curb my expectations when it comes to him.It is safe and less painful.I'm sure he's reverted back to Alpha Aaron by now.Last night, he'd been Aaron, just Aaron, my nextdoor neighbor and my savior.I dragged my tired body to the bathroom to brush, 'ready' to get ready and get out of my coop, take the day and my life.I might be brave enough to finally talk to him about school today, who knows.His mother had advised me to, after all.I missed them, his parents I mean. They are nice f
AARON'S POVSomehow, being with her and listening to her seemed to be what I'd needed this night.I'd come into her room with every intention of banishing the demons of her nightmare but as I sat holding her small figure, her intoxicating scent flirting with my senses, it was mine getting put to rest.It was there, everything I shouldn't be feeling, and I came closest to believing what Aragon has been throwing at me.Maybe she's our mate, maybe the moon goddess did out do herself this time.Not that it makes any sense and neither do I plan to do anything about it even if it's true.It did feel good allowing myself think about what it'd feel like to give in to the mate bond with this little firecracker.But it'd be best for the both of us if I stay away and ignore the pull I feet towards her petite sweetness.I didn't have to look to know that she's finally fallen asleep again, hopefully this one will go without the nightm
NANCY'S POVI was surprised to see him in my room when my eyes finally came open, freeing me from that horrible dream.It'd only been a dream, the dreadful scene I'd been trapped in, but somehow, his voice and his promise to protect me had gotten through to me and had been the beacon that had lead me out of that gripping darkness of a nightmare.I was too scared to fight the holding his strong arms around me, holding me to him like some child in the sure, protective arms of its father.I needed his strength and the reassuring bass of his deep, velvety voice promising me that it's okay, that I'm safe here with him.I let him hold me to the sculpted hardness that is his body, clinging to him like my life depends on it.At this point, I think it probably does.My abdomen hurt, I knew it was the spot that Laura's fist had impacted during the last practice.
AARON'S POVThis week just keeps getting worse.First there's the elusive pussy that is Gerald Hawkins who's driving me fast to the end of my patience.The son of a bitch tries to kill me and then goes under, missing in action.He's been on an infuriating low, with no real news on him from my tracking team and somehow he's avoided the traps I've shared for him.His coward ass is pushing me to a rough end and once I'm there, fuck boundaries and territories, he'll beg for a place in hell to hide from me and I'll find him there.I need to know that my pack will always be protected, their safety comes before anything else but with him still out there, that safety and protection could be jeopardized.And now I have to add the wolf that I'd ripped to death.We still can't figure out who he is and why he'd been there.I have my suspicions
NANCY'S POVI was back in the training ground, but now the endless expanse of it was empty, except for Laura who was smiling at me with a mean gleam glowing in her eyes.She looked scary like this and it made my heart beat faster.The silence surrounding us was eerie and then there was the disconcerting rustling of leaves I couldn't see and the chill that made goosebumps rise on my skin.And then, there was the looming darkness in the sky, threatening to swallow us all in the entirety of its blackness.I didn't want to be here and there didn't seem to be any way out, to escape this, escape her.And without warning, she was on me, her weight smashing my small form to the ground.She was on me in no second, hitting the holy crap out of my poor soul.Her eyes were gleaming and she didn't look so much like herself anymore.She was hitti
LAURA'S POVShe looks just like I expected her to, small, too young and disgustingly innocent.I wanted to protest when Aaron asked that I train with her this morning, I didn't come here to sit some slutty human child through training, but I don't want to swing on his bad side already.There's nothing special about her except the fact that she's human, weaker and shouldn't be here in the first place.Yet, here she is poaching in my territory and on my men.I plan to send her right where she belongs, in the lab where the rest of her kind are.I won't have some human brat ruin my carefully constructed plans.I'm sure Makal will like to hear
