Alpha Jasper 23
~TheaJasper offered to skip time for us to get home in time, and I took it.It passed that day, leaving me feeling slightly disoriented and drowsy. Although, I had to admit that it felt nice to be back at Jasper's house, almost as if I was coming home for the first time in what felt like forever. Never have I felt like this before."You should head to sleep," Jasper murmurs from behind me, the moment we walk through the door.I flinch, twisting around. We were in his living room, the space filling with warmth the moment we stepped inside. Something to do with Jasper's magic, I assume."I like when I skip time around you," he says, changing tact. He leant against the doorway, staring at me.Sometimes the way he looks at me paralyses me. It is almost as if he can change his emotions with just his eyes, portraying to me only what he wants me to see. Like right now, it captures me, melting my insides with its intensity."Why?" I ask, my voice quivering slightly.I don't know why he makes

~TheaThe sun had hardly rose when I next opened my eyes. It had to be at the beginning of dawn, which was surprising since I never woke up this early."Oh Goddess," I drawl, running a hand down my face as I sit up.Did I really do that last night, or was it a wild dream? It can't of been, I remember the feeling so well...His fingers, his eyes, his everything. It was so real, and so was the fact that I had committed to it, wanting with every ounce of my body.Clambering out of bed, I throw my hair into a ponytail, and form a semblance of an outfit that might be suitable for a walk outside. Right now, I need to clear my head.Jasper is bound to be awake, since he doesn't need to sleep, being a Phantom Wolf and all, so going out the front door wasn't really an option. After last night, I don't want to see him yet, and something tells me he won't want me to go wandering outside this early in the morning in a place I don't know completely yet.Instead, I zipped up my coat and opened my be

~Thea"Never in my life did I think I would be able to say I actually met my own Alpha!"Cole's excited exclamation didn't go unnoticed by Jasper, who looked as if he wanted to do nothing more than knock the man out. However, he kept his anger restricted to his gaze, which he assaulted both me and Cole with.This went completely unnoticed to the man beside me."I just met your cousin!" Cole said pointedly, resting his arm across my shoulders in a way I knew was friendly, but hardly looked like it. "She's very sweet."Poor Cole had no idea what Jasper had done to me last night. He had no idea that there is no way he is my cousin. He didn't even recognise the malice brewing in his expression, but to be fair, I didn't fully understand why. I didn't know I wasn't allowed to have friends. "You two seem to be quite friendly, aren't you?" Jasper murmured, his gaze lowering to the arm over my shoulder. The way he looked at the arm seemed to add weight to it, making me want to shrug it off to

~Thea The closer we got to the Love Pack, the more my nerves set in. The last time I was there, Luca was too, and the idea of him still being there had me fidgeting anxiously, having to sometimes resort to itching my thigh to keep my hands from quivering. Not even the idea of seeing yet another Alpha was worrying me as much as this...Jasper hadn't said another word about what might be wrong with me, and honestly, I'm too afraid to ask. By the constantly stricken look on his face, and the way his hands clenched till his knuckles were white on the wheel, I had a feeling this was something I'm not going to like.The good part about this whole thing, is that I'm going back to the Love Pack.Something about it contents me, makes me feel peaceful and docile. For a start, the snow is a beauty to look at, and in the Love Pack, there is no lack of it. Despite the situation, we are going back to the Pack of Love, and I can't wait.The moment we drive past the entrance, emerging into another

~Thea"I-I...Me?"My hardly coherent stuttering didn't go unnoticed, in the way Malik smiled knowingly, and my cheeks reddened in response. Where has my brain gone? It seems to have melted under the heated gaze Malik assaults me with. The first flicker of salvation was like a knock on the back of my head with a very insistent fist. I've spent a lot of my life being intimidated by Luca, and I'm not about to show weakness like that in front of anyone again. Malik may be an Alpha, but I'm a woman who knows how to hold a gaze, and cover my emotions with an impassive cloth."Sorry you had to see that," he said coolly, standing back straight again. Clearly he was referring to Vanessa. "I'm sure you've been waiting for quite some time."My eyes narrow, as I respond a little too abruptly. "Not really."Malik watches me carefully, openly searching my face curiously. He was probably wondering what was behind the sudden change of tact, but I wasn't about to mention it. I knew what he was insinu

~TheaJasper paced in front of me.I sat on the edge of the bed, my leg stretched out in front of me. The blanket was still wrapped around my waist, but honestly, I don't care anymore. Too many things swim in my mind, trying to fit somewhere, but it was failing, leaving me feeling empty, and numb."I don't want to die," I say softly, watching Jasper as he thinks.Malik had given us some space to talk things through, to discuss how Jasper was going to end my life. However, the moment we were left alone, Jasper was starting to realise he was actually going to stop my heart from beating, and I realised this is really happening."I'm sorry to have dragged you into this mess," Jasper murmurs, finally coming to a stop. I've never seen him look so lost, so distraught in a situation. He isn't holding himself together as well as I have seen him do, and it doesn't help my jittering nerves.I sigh deeply, trying to get some breath into my lungs. "It's not your fault. It didn't, I would be dead b

~TheaJasper gave me some space, which I spent in the bathroom trying to make myself look nice. He promised me, that we would be going out, to make my last day alive good for me. I combed my hair through with my fingers, patting down the strands that stuck out in places. If I had a tie, I maybe would have braided my hair. Instead, I pushed it over my shoulders, and hoped it looked somewhat decent. My clothes were rumpled, but I didn't have Jasper's magic to conjure up clothes, and I wasn't about to ask him for a pretty dress or something.This will do. I can still wear clothes when I'm a Phantom.I refused to think about what was going to happen tomorrow. Today was all I could think about, as well as Jasper's enticing promise about something special tonight. I had no idea what it was, but he told me that it had to do with a secret he's been keeping.My insistent curiosity is going to keep me on edge about it all day, I know it.Rinsing my face, I wash the dried tears from my cheeks.

~TheaInside the cabin was just as inviting as the outside. It was the small, the furnishings were subtle, and the entire place almost seemed to bundle you up in the fireplace-which Jasper's magic lit-warm embrace.The moment Jasper ushered me inside, I was awed by the entire thing. With wooden interior beams on the ceiling, that match what might suffice as wallpaper, the small space seemed warm, friendly, and inviting. Despite my wariness of what Jasper called faux, the rug on the floor looked softer than silk.Jasper took my jacket, as I shrugged it off. "And Malik, of all people created this?"The Alpha chuckled. He knew what Malik was like, and if I told him about the girl-Vanessa, or whatever her name is-then I'm sure he wouldn't be surprised. I just found it ironic that the Alpha of Love decided to spend his time with beautiful women warming his bed, rather than actually looking for his mate.I expected him, of all people, to hunt the entire land for her. "He did. There is a ro
