"Sweetheart...darling please open the door, Jia.... pumpkin pie.?.... Sugar cubes?...I cringed at the words that were coming out of my mouth to please my mate."Anything else?" Rex asked boringly."Shut up""You have hurt mate, how can you talk about other mate to her.""You of all people, should know how things are, there is a serious situation we are facing. We can be under attack at any moment. That Black Devil can do anything. We have been safe so far because of all the loyal people we have. I can feel it, the danger lurking in the shadows...""Warrior Kent we are waiting for you." One of my men said through mind link. I sighed looking at the bathroom door. I had to go."I am leaving Jia, see you at the party." I didn't get any response. I walked out taking small steps, hoping she will open the door anytime and come running towards me, but I guess that's not happening, with one last look I headed out.I hope we get through this and are able to take down that Black Devil. He has s
"It's all your doing, isn't it?" I was furious, no furious is not the right word. I was infuriated. Yes."What are you saying?" Derek asked innocently. Oh! He is again at being 'I don't know anything'"Don't act smart OK, I know it, all this is happening because of you. You...you make me feel disgusted every time I am with some girl. I have not had my release since long."I was pacing in a hotel room that I keep booked all the time."That has nothing to do with me. Nevertheless, I am happy about it. You should wait..." He said coldly as if my distress was not affecting him."Shut it ok, just....SHUT. UP." I was losing my cool now."There is no one to wait for and I want you to shove you sorry as* in some dark corner and never show up till I am with Lancy. She must be here anytime." Lancy. I meet her at the club we went that day, well she was all se*y and sul*ry and that's what I needed. I don't repeat my girls, they are just for single time."She is not coming.""WHAT!!! Are you cra
Jia's Pov"Rouges" we both said at once.I was terrified, there were Rouges, lots and lots of Rouges in our territories. How was this even possible with our security and patrolling? This can't be. I looked at Viktor, he was furious, thinking about same thing maybe. Surely there is some mistake, there is some loophole somewhere.We heard screams of people, we both started running towards the party area holding hands. Viktor transformed and went into the crowd of people that were running haywire."Go in the safe house in basement and take as many people as possible with you." He mind linked me."No, I am not leaving you, I will fight with you" I won't leave his side"No Jia, go and help people to safety, we will take care here." He told me again in stern voice."Viktor..." I tried to argue with him. I wanted to be with him."It's an order Warrior Davis". Oh sucks!I turned my attention towards the pack house, just then there was a huge explosion, that deafening explosion inside the pack
I was screaming in pain, clenching my heart but no voice came out. My voice had died in my throat, choking me.I looked at my mate and made my way to him with all the strength left in my body. He was being repeatedly stabbed by the sliver dagger in hands of that devil. The whole scene was playing in front of me in slow motion. With each stab his body jerked up giving me an agonising pain, and with each stab the maniac laughed satisfying his filthy soul. I pushed him with all my might and slumped on ground taking my mate in my lap.His whole body was trembling, blood oozing out from his heart. I placed my hands on his heart, an attempt to stop the blood flowing out. He looked at me, those grey orbs were losing its light and flame, flickering blue in between, still they hold undying love for me, with faint smile lingering on his lips, he caressed my cheeks smearing blood on them. I could smell death, feel death. He was trying to say something. I moved closer to him."St..stay.. strong"
Richard POVDerek forced me to run through the forest to reach Pearl moon instead of taking cars, so that we can reach faster. As we got near, smell of Rouges was heavy in the air. We increased our speed. That place reeked of blood and death, we are late that was the first thought that crossed my mind.The first thing I saw was a girl hugging a dead man and one of the rouge about to stab her, Derek lurched at rouge taking him to ground. As we were trying to grab each other's neck, another rouge attacked me from behind, by the time I finished him off, Black Devil was no were in sight. He ran away and then within few minutes all the rouges sprinted from the grounds of pearl moon leave a deadly mess behind.Now as I look at the whole picture, its dreadful, land was covered with blood and dead bodies, some severely injured and some living ones crying over their loved ones. Children and elders were even not spared.I saw a female doctor running around to check the living ones, she was di
Richard's POVNext day after attack"What's that smell" I asked sniffing around."What smell?" Owen asked, is he mad? It's so strong."This smell, like fresh lilies?""Must be some room freshener man, we are at hospital.""I know where we are, you idiot." We were here to check injured werewolves of Pearl moon pack.But it didn't smell like some bloody room freshener. It...it smelled real...like real lilies were shoved right in my nose. This smell was enticing and intoxicating and...is it..?'What is it Derek, is it our mate's smell?' I asked getting anxious.'Huh? I don't know.' he said as if not interested.'Oh! Come on, Saint Derek, 'YOU' don't know! How’s that possible?' What wrong with him, he knows everything, I mean EVERYTHING. That’s why I call him saint Derek and, Mates, let me quote it in inverted commas and bold letters "MATE" is his all-time favourite topic. So why is he being indifferent? I have heard that your mates smell can drive you mad, ya whatever!I followed the sce
Jia's PovI entered my new room at Southern moon pack, it was just white walls and a queen size bed in centre. I sighed, this will be my new home now, Empty! Just like my heart and my life."I have bought some clothes for you, they are in closet." Brittany informed me.I took her warm hands in my cold ones."You both are doing so much for me, I am so grateful and blessed to have friends like you both. I don't know what would have I done without you." I had tears in my eyes."Jia, don't say that. I know he ditched us and went away, but we are here for each other, you are my little sister." Jake said holding my shouldersI nodded.I am really grateful for them, what would have happened of me, if I had lost them too."I need a car" I told him"I will take you there""No, you need to be here with Brit and I will be back before this little guy comes out." I looked at her baby bump and smiled.Thoughts of mine and Viktor's conversation come back to me. We were planning to start a family and
Jia's PovI woke up with a jolt, screaming my dead mate's name. Again the same dream. It came back again and again making me relive that dreadful night. I was losing my mate every day, I was watching him getting killed every night. Part of me wanted it to stop cause it was killing me, pushing me further into the darkness of depression and part of me wanted to still be connected to Viktor in every which way possible. It was still dark outside and sleep won't be coming back. I got changed and went to training area.I was back from Viktor's mom and dad's place four days back. Dad had trained me well. I had this new confidence in me to take anyone that came against me. I even started my training job at Southern moon pack. Life was ok, it was somehow getting in routine.Even Ara was back, where she was and why she had gone?, I didn't get answers from her. She just said she needed time to heal. She is a huge support for me. That day we both cried for each other and for our loss. With her be
