Semua Bab Wolfbitten: Bab 51 - Bab 60

THERESAI couldn’t help but snicker at the thought. Damien was practically a third brother to me, so I didn’t see him that way at all. But a part of me did find the idea funny. Tyce would be pissed. “Don’t guess!” I finally responded. “I’m not going to tell you.”“Fine fine!” she replied, waving her hand. “But unless you say otherwise, I’m just going to assume that you and Damien are sneaking around behind Tyce’s back.”“Assume away!” I replied, laughing again at the thought. Tyce did always act extra protective of me around his friends, especially after I started wearing a bra. While I loved my big brother, it was also fun to get a rise out of him sometimes. Although Gigi had that department covered now.We laughed a bit more and then Sophia’s face settled. She glanced me up and down, and pulled me in for another hug. “Seriously, Terr, I think you should reconsider keeping this from at least Tyce. I get why you don’t want to tell your dad…”“About Damien?” I asked, taken aback, assum

GINGERI stripped down as quickly as I could, while the unrelenting cold bit at my exposed skin. That was the second reason I hated going into my wolf form.“So sexy.” Tyce whistled once I was completely bare. But I gave him the show for barely a second before I morphed into my wolf. My nails stretched into claws, fur sprouted from newly formed hair follicles, and my bones rearranged themselves into my canine form. My paws landed on the fluffy snow.“So fucking cool.” Tyce grinned with pride. “If we ever go into battle, it’s game over once they get a look at you.”I tilted my head in insecurity. Sure, I looked scary, but once they got over the initial shock, I’d be taken down in seconds. Even though I was training with Sara regularly, I was also getting my ass beat regularly. It was only thanks to my new werewolf superspeed healing that my skin color wasn’t black and blue. But I was determined. I would keep training, even if it killed me.“What’s wrong?” Tyce asked, furrowing his brow

NIKOLAI“Are you okay?” Terri’s touch on my arm jolted me back to reality. I hadn’t even realized how far my thoughts had drifted. “You seem…” She studied me, her brows drawing together. “Angry? Sad? I’m trying to figure it out. Maybe… jealous?”My head snapped up. “What?” I barked, taking a step back.Her eyes widened slightly, and she winced. “Sorry. Sometimes I speak without thinking.”I exhaled through my nose, forcing myself to steady my expression. “Why do you think I feel that?”She hesitated, glancing down at her hands. “I don’t know. I just… sense it.”Sense it? A muscle in my jaw ticked. “What does that mean?”“Never mind.” She let out a nervous laugh. “Forget I said anything. I’m obviously just being crazy.”Crazy? No.Because if I was honest with myself, she was right. The thought sat heavy in my chest, a truth I wasn’t ready to confront. I considered pressing her further, demanding how she knew, how she saw through me so easily. But that would mean admitting what had been

GINGERI took a deep breath. My mind was blanking. What was I supposed to ask him? He looked so pathetic at that moment. I almost felt bad for him.“He. Wants. To. Murder. Your. Mate,” Sara emphasized.“Why do you want to murder my mate?” I blurted out, feeling put on the spot.He stared at us and didn’t say anything. Sara chortled.“Thinks being silent will save him and his pack.” Sara stepped forward. “Dumbass.” Before I could process what she was saying, she had her knife shoved so deep into his stomach her hand was practically inside it. High pitched shrieks echoed off the walls, floor, and ceiling. I clutched at my stomach as blood spluttered out of his. “First time you’ve been penetrated, eh?” Sara said as she pulled the knife out. “It’s okay, after the first time it only gets better and better.” She chuckled. “At least for me.”At first, I just felt cold. An unnatural cold, one that seeped into my bones despite the warm basement air. Then, my head started to ache, a dull throb

NIKOLAIEarly on Tuesday morning, I jumped into the hot shower before it was time to leave. They say a full moon can make one do crazy things. And in our culture, we were especially affected by the first full moon of the year—the wolf moon. It was days away. And there was no reason to believe that a sunrise couldn’t affect us much the same. Especially after having lived in persistent darkness for so long. I’d practically forgotten that there was a time in my life that I’d walked under the sun’s rays.As planned, I met Terri at the dining table that morning, munching on some buttered toast. “Shh, don’t tell my mom.” Terri winked at me and giggled. I stared at her, not sure what she expected me to tell her mom. That I was taking her on a private adventure? Her mother would be elated at the news.I continued into the kitchen, where I heated up a pre-prepped breakfast sandwich that Tasha always had on hand for the alphas when we’d be up early for training. I fumbled with the fancy Nespres
