As I followed it I couldn’t help but think about how my life had taken such a drastic turn. A few hours ago, I was getting ready for my birthday and now I am following a bird through the trees. I found myself laughing despite the dire situation because of how pathetic it sounded. All of this is simply because my own sister decided to steal my boyfriend.The bird flew directly ahead of me and I tried my best to follow it while avoiding the trees to the best of my ability. I knew that by the time I was done with this journey, the car would be beat up and in desperate need of repairs but somehow I couldn’t bring myself to bother about that.I was trying to avoid a tree so I swerved to the right and into one of the wolves. I didn’t see him in time and I knew I wouldn’t be able to maneuver around him. He prepared to jump onto the car and I knew he would do it successfully but then the weirdest thing happened.Some birds flew down from the trees and simultaneously started to poop on the wol
KADEN’S P.O.VIt took almost half an hour for my wolf and I to agree on where we wanted to go. He wanted to hunt and I knew that mother would guess that in an instant. I have always hunted when I am frustrated and she knows that. I wanted to go home but I knew that she would probably be waiting for me there so it was out of the options.After a while, my wolf reminded me of a certain lake with a waterfall in the woods and I realized that it was a great idea. I’m surprised that more people don’t know about it but then again, it is too hidden for most people to find. I found it when I was a child and it was my solace for years, I haven’t shared this spot with anyone yet so mother would never think to find me there.I put my phone on silent and left it in my office so I wouldn’t be tempted to pick up her calls. If anything important comes up and people cannot find me, they will relay everything to Caleb who will mind link me if he thinks it is very important.Without informing anyone, I
GREGORY’S P.O.VI cannot remember the name of the she wolf in front of me but one thing I do know is that she knows how to take a dick. I frequented her a lot because she did things just as I liked; she didn’t touch me, she stayed silent and she allowed me use her like my own personal rag doll.I had her face pressed into my office table as I slammed into her from behind. The only sounds coming from her were grunts and moans as I spilled into the condom. I pulled out of her and went to dispose of it. The last thing I need is one of these she wolves getting pregnant and demanding to keep the child; the clean up would be messy.I had righted my trousers in the bathroom and returned to the office when I saw her still naked and in an instant I was hard again. She grabbed her clothes and made to leave but I stopped her gestured for her to kneel in between my legs on the floor.She obliged in an instant and without having to say a word to her, she took me out of my trousers and began to suc
AMELIA’S P.O.VI heard laughter- it was loud and carefree, the kind that you made when you were around friends and you didn’t need to hold back. It was the kind that warmed you from the insides and I knew I had to find the source of it. I looked up to see father and Brittany. At first I doubted that the sound came from any of them but Brittany’s mouth fell open and the same carefree laughter filled the air.I looked around trying to see if I could recognize my surroundings but I couldn’t. From what I could see, we were in an open field. There were tall fruit trees all around us but mainly it was an open space of grass with a small water fountain at the edge almost completely hidden by some trees.I was on one end of the clearing, leaning against a tree with a book right next to me while father and Brittany were on the other end. He was holding a baseball bat and she was pitching balls at him for him to hit. She was horrible at pitching and sometimes she threw them too low or too high
AMELIA’S P.O.VThe hair at the back of my neck stood on end when I heard her words. Fear gripped me and it took every effort I had to not begin to hyperventilate. I was scared and terrified and I wanted nothing more than to crawl into a hole and hide.I tried to recall the man I saw coming out of the lake. He was shrouded by shadows and he looked every bit the terrifying monster I have heard about. I couldn’t help but remember the stories I heard father and the members of our pack say and I wondered if he was looking for me so he could finally punish me for coming onto his territory and running away from him.“The Alpha is looking for me,” I repeated and she nodded. “My name is Clara by the way,” she said in a sing song voice, “I am going to take you to him.”I swallowed down my fear and looked up at the girl, “Is he angry with me?” I asked, “For running away at the lake. Did I somehow disrespect him?”“What are you talking about?” she sounded genuinely confused, “How would you
KADEN’S P.O.VAfter my mate ran away from me, the first thing I did was go back to my house. For some reason, my wolf was acting like a bitch in heat during puberty and was day dreaming of all the ways we could take our mate.I couldn’t get the image of her soft and luscious curves out of my head and as soon as I got into my house, I stripped off my clothes and went in to take a cold shower. It helped a little and I was able to get the boner down and get a grip on my emotions long enough to think about something other than fucking my mate.By the time I got out of the shower, I decided to look for something decent to wear. My wolf whined about wanting to make a decent first impression on her since we scared her off the first time and I ended up choosing a tailored black suit with a navy blue tie. I knew it was over the top but my wolf was overjoyed by my choice and I could feel his glee and desire.“You need to calm down,” I warned him, “I don’t care if you’re in heat but you cannot b
AMELIA’S P.O.V Fear ran through me like a live wire and I was worried that he could hear my heart beating out of my chest. I was scared that because of how fast it was beating, it would break through my chest and splatter on the floor in front of us. That would be a messy sight but it would be better than the palpable fear. He was tall, I would say he is at least a foot taller than me. I barely came up to the middle of the chest and he wasn’t just tall, he was huge. He looked like he worked out daily and he was well built. I was terrified of him and even though the nice girl from earlier-Clara- had told me that he wouldn’t hurt me, I couldn’t bring myself to believe her. I trust her but nothing about this Alpha seems calm and forgiving. The suit he was wearing gave off the vibe of regal and terrifying and I couldn’t help but wonder what he was going to do to me. Maybe he would punish me for stumbling across his territory and running away from him or maybe he will just banish me from
KADEN’S P.O.VIt was a simple touch, just the grabbing of her shoulders and yet my dick was as hard as granite. I mentally cursed my wolf for acting like a teenager going through puberty for the first time and I rushed to take a seat behind the table hoping she wouldn’t notice. I doubt she did because I’m sure she would have gone screaming for the hills if she knew how just an innocent touch got me hard.I tried my best to relax myself during the conversation but it was like each word out of her lips was an aphrodisiac. I will admit that I spent more time staring at her lips than actually listening to the conversation but that is the fault of my wolf and not actually my fault.When she started to apologize, I felt a foreign pain in my chest as my wolf all but screamed at me to comfort her. If it was left to him, he would have pulled her into his arms to calm her down but I had to remind him that she was terrified of us and if I were to try that, she would probably pass out from fright
CHAPTER 195AMELIA’S P.O.VFor a moment, Kaden just stood there staring at me and I wondered if I had pushed him too far. Perhaps it was never about me being ready, maybe he wasn’t ready to be with me after everything that happened.I felt so incredibly stupid and attempted to turn away from him when he grabbed my chin and forced me to look at him. I didn’t want to but we were like magnets, always drawn to each other and I couldn’t stop myself from staring straight into his eyes.“I’m only going to say this once so get this straight,” he began slowly. “I don’t ever want to see that fucking look on your face again. The only reason I said nothing is because I was thinking of how much of a bastard I would be if I fucked you right here instead of taking you up into a room.”I cracked a smile. “I don’t think I can make it upstairs.”“Me neither.”The words were barely out of his mouth before he kissed me again. I felt something akin to relief in the center of my chest. It felt good to be a
AMELIA’S P.O.VIt had been two days since Aiden came to visit and Kaden had not spoken about him. We acted as if it were a fever dream that was locked away in the far parts of our minds.I knew that Aiden wouldn’t give up anytime soon and I knew that one day, I needed to tell Kaden about what had happened but I couldn’t even figure out how to bring it up. It was unsettling and uncomfortable but I didn’t have solid proof that he meant for anything malicious to happen.“You’re thinking hard,” Kaden’s voice snapped me out of my thoughts and I turned to find him standing at the doorway to the kitchenIt was his presence that reminded me of what I was doing and I cursed as I pulled the oven open. I let out a sigh of relief when I saw that my cake hadn’t burnt but if I had left it for a few more minutes, I wouldn’t have been able to say that at all.I rushed to get it out and put it on a cooling rack all the while I could see Kaden trying to hide a smile out of the corner of his eye.I was
AMELIA’S P.O.V“Hi,” I managed out as I made my way over to them and their conversation instantly ceased. I could see that Serena was itching to touch me but they both held back for my sake. “I’m not going to shatter just because you hug me.”That was all Serena needed before she rushed to her feet and threw her arms around my shoulders. She didn’t cry like the last time but I could feel her relief as she held me. I wasn’t sure how long that lasted but as soon as she pulled away, Clara’s arms were around me.“I’m so sorry,” she whispered and I could almost taste the guilt that was radiating off her.“It wasn’t your fault,” I assured her. “We were ambushed, we were sidetracked. Thar had nothing to do with you. I need you to know that.”“You were gone, for so long.”“But I’m back now,” I pulled away and grasped her shoulders. “All that matters is that I’m back now.”She gave me a small nod. I knew it would take more than that to deal with the guilt that she felt but it was a good start
AMELIA’S P.O.VIt was exactly one week since I had been back and I was yet to leave the house.Kaden had been patient with me, not forcing me to go anywhere until I was ready or making me do anything I didn’t want to but even I knew that life had to move on. I couldn’t just sit in here forever and pretend like things were fine and the constant state of boredom was driving me mad.We were having breakfast when I spoke. “I want to go out.”Kaden stopped eating, his eyes finding mine and I could see the worry in them as he slowly ran his eyes over me. He was more protective over me than usual and I didn’t blame him, especially not after what happened. If I wanted to go anywhere, especially now, I knew that there would be crazy rules to come with it.“Where do you want to go?”I shrugged. I hadn’t really thought that far. All I knew was that I didn’t want to be within the four walls of the house anymore. I wanted to talk to my friends, I wanted to be normal, I wanted to see people without
KADEN’S P.O.VWhat Amelia needed whether she realized it or not were her friends.Just those few minutes with Serena had brightened her day more than I thought was possible. It hurt that they could do more for her than I could but I didn’t care as long as it meant that she was fine, that was all that mattered to me.After the interaction with Serena, Amelia declared that she wanted to go home. I didn’t protest, didn’t even make any other suggestions, we just got into the car and drove. She didn’t hide from me when we returned which was a plus in my books, she simply sat on the couch, laying her head on my shoulder in silence.I wasn’t sure how long we stayed there but it could have been ten hours and I wouldn’t have minded. She seemed so peaceful, more than she had since she got back and I loved that for her.“I hate the silence,” she whispered and I turned to her. “When I was there with him, it was always quiet. I couldn’t go anywhere, couldn’t do anything, it was just the two of us
AMELIA’S P.O.VI didn’t want to leave the house the next morning but when Kaden told me that it was to say goodbye to Jackson, I forced myself out.Going to the pack house was terrifying and the entire time, it felt like someone was breathing down my neck and the worst was yet to come. Kaden was a firm pillar by my side the entire time, he never once took his hand out of mine and he never strayed from my side. I knew that I was safe with him but that didn’t mean I still wasn’t a little scared.“You look like shit,” Jackson drawled as soon as he saw me.Kaden stiffened, not liking his tone but waiting to see my reaction. I was silent for a second before a small smile pulled at the corner of my lips. I wrapped my arms around his center clearly catching him off guard.For a moment, he didn’t move and then, ever so slowly, he wrapped his arms around me and squeezed softly.“I would say you look like shit but you actually look better,” I whispered as I pulled back.He had clearly taken a s
AMELIA’S P.O.VI knew I was hurting him by not letting him in but I couldn’t.How could he help when even I didn’t know how to help myself? I was home and that should have been the most important thing but I still found myself terrified. In my nightmare, I was back in Blake’s little hideaway house. I was back with him and my baby was gone.How could I tell Kaden that knowing fully well that he was going to lose his mind and panic? I didn’t want him stressed- didn’t need him stressed right now. One of us needed a clear head and it was obvious that person wasn’t going to be me.“Amelia, baby, please look at me,” Kaden’s voice was soft and coaxing as he wiped my tears off my cheeks. “Please.”I wasn’t sure if it was the please or the sound of pure defeat in his voice that had me slowly opening my eyes. He gave me a small smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes and I couldn’t help it, I leaned up to kiss him. It wasn’t a deep kiss of unbridled passion, it was soft, almost explorative, just
KADEN’S P.O.VI couldn’t bring myself to fall asleep.Amelia claimed to be fine but I knew her better than I knew myself. I knew every bit of her, every smile, every freckle, every curve of her skin, I knew her emotions better than I knew my own sometimes and I knew for a fact that despite her saying otherwise, she was far from fine.I could see it in the way she hardly ever met my eyes, in the hesitation in her voice and in her determination to avoid speaking about whatever she might have faced in that place. I knew the guilt that she felt, sometimes when she let her wall down by accident, I could feel it like a bitter poison at the back of my throat threatening to choke me.It didn’t matter how many times I told her that I was fine with what happened, she couldn’t forgive herself and if she couldn’t, there was no way she was going to move past it. I wasn’t a fan of the idea of her being with Blake sexually but she did what she had to in order to survive and as much as I hated it, I
AMELIA’S P.O.VI was discharged before the end of the day.Kaden clearly didn’t agree with my choice but I doubted he could bring himself to refuse me. I knew I was being a little irrational and illogical but I couldn’t bear to be anywhere else. I wanted to be surrounded by people I knew and by my home, I wanted to be surrounded by him.He carried me into the car despite knowing I could walk and for once, I didn’t protest. Clara and Caleb were nowhere to be seen by the time we were leaving, I presumed they were giving us our space and for that, I was grateful. I loved my friends but today was not that day.As we drove past the turn to the house, I turned to Kaden. “Where are we going?”“Our home.”“But it’s that way,” I pointed towards the turn that we had missed. “Kaden, where are you taking me?”“That was my house, I’m taking you to ours.”I didn’t realize what he was talking about until he pulled up in front of a familiar building. The last time I saw it, he was still trying to per
