Alexa's POV The days were mostly the same. Boring until Hayley came along. I hated to admit it. I did not want to admit it, but she had become a principal aspect of making my everyday whole. As I sat down now on the bed, listening to her drool on and on about this girl who was trying to steal kris's ex-boyfriend from her, I came to the conclusion that she was a good person, just with the bad set of friends." And obviously kris told her how she feels about her hanging out with him but she did not listen. School was so crazy today , Kris declared war on her." Hayley said.I looked at her." So...stuffing her in a trash bin was the right way to go?" I asked.She had a bit of a conflict with herself for a while." Well she had it coming" she replied simply.A knock stopped me from uttering the next sentence that was about to leave my mouth.Allison popped her head in, as if she was shy to properly walk in." Um, hey ladies, don't want to be a bother but can you help me get groceries. W
CHAPTER 17 Alexa's POV I was such a sucker for touchy feelings. It all always just felt either unnecessary or too much. But for the sake of the spluttering mess that Hayley had become, I chose to keep my own dislikes away and not point out the fact that she was ruining my shirt with her runny make up." I don't get it. Why would she do something like that to me?" She asked, her nose buried on my flat chest." Because she is a bitch dear. Now I don't want to be that girl, but I told you so" I said.We were back in her room now. I had not bothered to pick up the groceries and had just walked straight in with Hayley basically leaning on me.Allison did not ask questions, she did not complain, she just collected the list and picked up her bag, patting me on the shoulder as I led Hayley into the room." I really liked hanging out with them." She said, she sniffed as she looked up at me." You know, when we were younger, I was so ugly. Kris did not even want to look at me. So now I put in
Alexa's POV The silent treatment was something I was fast beginning to understand the pain of. I have never been on the receiving end of this treatment but I sure have dished out a lot of it to different people.Hayley was good at the silent treatment, a pro at it in fact. As I sat on the dining table, watching her avoid eye contact with me, I just knew I had had enough of it.This would probably all go away if I say sorry. But it was a word I could not bring myself to say however how much I tried." Pass me the salt Hayley" I said, in a bid to start a conversation.She reached out to it, passing it to me while trying to refrain from looking at me.She was good.I stood up mechanically with her and we walked towards her room to sleep. The tension could be felt by everyone, gem included." Hayley..." I called out as I laid on the floor, staring at her ceiling." What is it?" She responded." Are you still mad at me?" I asked the obvious question." Well yes, yes I am." She said." Wel
Alexa's POV I took a step back warily, knowing my words probably provoked him. " Hi, we don't want any trouble, just give me my friend and get someone else in there. There are lots of idiots you would like in there" I said." What makes you think I would just let go of her?" He said, his voice sounded human enough, except for the slight snarl that seemed to escape his mouth with every word he said." Because I think you are a good vampire..." I said.I was grappling for words now. He was coming closer slowly, and I was running out of places to back into." You know of my kind human. Interesting. for your sake, I would make both your death and hers very quick, you would barely feel it" he said, the smile still on his lips." We would both prefer to be alive" I said, I was against a wall now, my hands beginning to sweat as he advanced." It would be quick" he said and with that, he pinned me against the wall, sinking his fangs into my neck.The scream seemed to be pressed into my brai
Alexa's POV When I opened my eyes, I was in a room. A room different from the one I fell asleep in. I looked around unsurely, touching a few paintings and trying to find a soul.Voices were coming from just beyond the door outside. There were approaching the room faster now. The door burst open and a strange man entered, carrying someone in his arms.He looked devastatingly handsome but that was a trait I was used to seeing in most men. He also felt oddly familiar. Like I had met him somewhere.He dropped the body on the bed, his arms shaking." Where is the pack doctor? Don't you see she is bleeding out?"he growled pointing to the body and screaming out the door.Two women and a man entered inside. " Alpha you really have to calm down She would be fine" the old man said.For some reasons, I was beginning to freak out." Where am I and who are you people?" I asked firmly.The man looked in my direction. I felt my heart clench. No, he was definitely more handsome than any guy I hav
Alexa's POV When things went too perfect, I always knew there would be a twist soon. Most of the time it was always a bad twist. Sometimes there is a good twist here and there but nothing spectacular.It was another normal day at the cafe shop. I was bored out of my mind and just wanted to curl into a ball and die. But of course death was a luxury I could not get.Hayley and gem had gone with their dad to visit a niece or something, I was not really paying attention to what she was saying.I was dozing off slowly already, my head banging the counter a few times when the door opened.Their presence was announced with the looming shadow their huge figures casted on me. I raised my head up groggily, hoping they already decided on their orders so I could go back to drifting in and out of sleep.They were huge. The one on the left hand had a long tattoo that reassembled a dragon, running into his shirt.I looked at their faces one after the other, my eyes slowly leading to the one in the
Alexa's POV I was dreading going to the coffee shop the next day. Not because I cared what he did or if he came back, but mostly because I did not want to admit the fact that he may actually be my mate.I heard sparks flew when mates touched. But the only thing that flew was insults and maybe today a broken nose might be added to that list.But of course, the moon goddess never really addressed any of my prayers.When he walked in just shortly after I opened the shop, I prepared myself for a mental breakdown that was long over due anyways." I thought I made myself clear when I said I don't want to see your pathetic face any where around me?" I asked the moment he stepped up to the counter." Ouch. Are you always this brutal?" He asked." I thought I answered this question yesterday." I asked." Look I know it's hard for you to just see a random stranger walking up to you and probably being a douche, but I really need to talk to you and honestly there are things you don't understand.
Chapter 23Lucian's POVI had never hoped for a mate, or for love. I was just satisfied with having a few flings here and there. It was no fault of mine that I was a lycan, but I was definitely the one paying the price.But when I stepped into that coffee shop and the intoxicating scent hit my nostrils, it was like a whole new world was opened up.At first I had just been craving a cup of coffee, and perhaps a light snack to go with it, but stepping into the shop, my hunger for something else increased.I did not know what I wanted but I knew that it was that intoxicating scent that had me all wrapped in a knot.The scent was coming from a small human, her long hair pulled up in a ponytail and her lips curled down in a frown.My wolf was beginning to become impatient, just waiting for a chance to look at her. And when that chance finally came, looking into her pure orb like eyes, my wolf uttered the words I never thought I would hear.Mate.But so far, I have been finding out that h
Alexa's POV He had pulled back from me smirking, a mischievous glint in his eyes like he had been able to achieve what he wanted.My brain was mushy although it was not my first kiss. Perhaps it was because of the sound of everyone cheering me and teasing or probably because of the smug look on his face, but I drew my hand back and landed a well articulated slap on his face.He did not even flinch, looking at me with his eyes raised in confusion." I thought you wanted me to kiss you" he said." Wanted? You just went all ninja on me. Is this what you wanted all along? A kiss? Or what more?" I asked, suddenly flaring up more than I was supposed to." What no...I want you. All that is just the bonus. Why don't you trust me?" He asked, a look of hurt crossing his features. " Just go..." I muttered.He nodded his head slowly, before he walked away."Hey, why did you do that? You know he likes you and I know you sure as hell like him. So what's wrong?" Hayley said, pulling me aside." I
Alexa's POV The next morning was awkward for the both of us. For one, she did not know how to act around me again and for some reason, she seemed to look at me like I was some god or something.Did she not get the part where I told her I did not have a wolf? Obviously she missed that part because her eyes were saying it all." Hey, I don't want to go to school today. Is there any way you can like...I don't know...teleport me somewhere else so my mum doesn't figure it out?" She asked.I looked at her weirdly." When In the world did I tell you I could teleport" I asked.This girl was unbelievable." But you can fly right? Like all those super hero movies and stuff. Oh this is all too much" she said, putting a hand on her head.I tried not to facepalm as I picked her bag up and chucked it into her hands." Get your butt out of here and get to school before I actually lose my shit right now" I said, my eyes desperately trying to look angry.She sighed, flinging the bag over her shoulder
Alexa's POV When I finally opened my eyes, I was on the soft cushioned bed that I was so used to. The room was familiar, a vibrant female teenage room.I struggled to remember what happened. I hated it when I blacked out, it was always hard to remember events that happened and although I did not regularly black out, it was always an unpleasant encounter that I would rather avoid.Hayley was sitting at the side of the bed, her head lulling to sleep as she struggled to stay awake." Hey" I called out softly, tapping her arms.She got up with a jolt, her eyes looking about quickly before it finally settled on my face.She shifted back a little avoiding my touch and shocking me.What the hell happened last night? Or before I fainted? Was it even still that night?Then suddenly, like a wave, it came rushing back to me, punching me in the guts.The nagging headaches, the floating and then the blacking out.I looked at Hayley. Oh, she had seen it." Who are you...or what are you? Are you
Alexa's POV I looked at her face, expectation written on every inch of it. I sighed, wondering just how to tell her and explain to her without revealing anything about mates and the werewolf community.After I told her the edited version of the story, I watched her grin from ear to ear for a solid minute." I swear to the goddess that if you don't stop grinning I would legit punch a hole into your teeth." I threatened, slightly annoyed by her overly annoying smile." I mean, I just can't help it. Did you see the guys that just walked in? I would marry each of them without a single hesitation. And here you are, with basically every woman's dreams and you are like oh, you don't want him around?" She asked, her face mirroring the surprise that lingered in her voice.I shifted uncomfortably on the chair, not wanting to go down that route. Explaining things about my pack and remembering the idiot I fell helplessly in love with hurt way more than I would like to admit.I sighed, deciding t
CHAPTER 24Alexa's POV The next couple of days were not that bad. I did not like him yet, but I knew I was getting there. And the thought on its own scared me. I did not want to like a werewolf. The whole species of them were ruthless heart breakers and dominant males who thought a mate was supposed to be submissive.I knew he had not displayed any of those characteristics but It was only a matter of time before he finally did.He still thought I was a human. I did not have any plans of correcting that mistake any time soon anyways. I watched him stumble on his words trying to tell me what he really is.Hayley would be coming back today and i was genuinely excited to see her again. She was probably the first human that won my heart and she knew just how well to keep it.As I tidied up the coffee shop, my regular stalker no where to be found, I could not help but wonder just how things were going at the pack.Did they even try to look for me? This whole hiding my scent thing, perhaps
