Jia's PovI got ready and went down for breakfast. Michelle and Brittany were already there. Lucy and Megan joined us. After our many late night pizza parties and truth and dare games, we had become good friends.I looked at Brittany, sipping her coffee slowly. She looked tired, didn't I tell you, having a human mate is complicated, even more for humans. She was pregnant and it’s taking toll on her small body. Carrying a werewolf pup takes a lot of energy and strength which her body was not able to produce. Jake was taking care of her like a baby. What mattered was they both were so happy.What would it feel to have Viktor's pup in me, will he too take care of me just like Jake? Will it be too soon for me to think about being mother?"You had your medicines baby?" I heard Jake ask Brit, bringing me out of my thoughts. All of us looked at them having their sweet moment, wondering about motherhood, I guess.I pondered, if Vik will ever call me 'baby'. He never used any endearments for m
Jia's PovNext morning when I woke up, the first thing I did was to take the morning after pill. I kept looking at the small pill in my palm, thinking if I was ready for motherhood. The thought itself got me tensed and sweaty, I popped that pill in my mouth quickly.Not yet, I need to talk to Vik about it. I looked at him still sleeping peacefully. It brings smile to my face to see him this relaxed, he hardly gets time for himself. We need to go to our cabin soon to spend some time together."Jia, sweetie where are you?" Mom asked me through mind link."Mom, you are here?" She was here to help for the preparations"Yes, am at dining area come fast""Ya, give me 15 minutes."I took shower and got dressed quickly. When I reached down at dining area, there was lots of hustle going on. Everyone was busy with last moment preparations. I saw my mom in the crowd and hugged her tightly."I missed you mom.""If you miss your mom so much than why don't you come and visit her.""Mooommm! You kno
"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
