SILAS
Reagan smiled, extending his hand. “Alpha Silas, it’s been an honour having you here.”
I shook his hand. “The honour is mine Reagan, and please call me Silas.”
“Are you sure you won’t kill me?” he teased.
“Reagan, I’m powerful, not heartless,” I chuckled.
“Many would beg to differ Silas,” he smiled. I inwardly frowned.
People think I’m heartless?
I shrugged. “Well, I’m not bothered by opinions. I wouldn’t be where I am if I was.”
“Wise! Well, I shall see you in three month’s time at the Alpha’s meeting,” he said.
“Indeed,” I agreed before leaving.
I was halfway home, driving as I listened to the radio, when my arm felt like it was on fire. I jerked the car the other way, almost ramming into an oncoming car. I breathed in hard before pulling my car to the side of the road. Just as I did, my knee experienced the same pain.
What the hell is happening to me?
I stepped out of the car, only to have more of these pains attack different parts of my body. I bit down on my lower lip, drawing blood as I stopped myself from making a sound. The pain was becoming unbearable, until it suddenly went away, like it was never there to begin with. I was breathing heavily, my t-shirt clinging to me from my sweat.
What the hell just happened?
“I don’t have an answer for you either buddy. I have no clue, but that pain was almost as painful as silver,” Nikolas told me.
“You’re telling me! It was a different kind of pain than the one we’ve been feeling this whole week. This one was physical,” I replied.
“I know, and it makes me curious about something, but I don’t know if it could be it,” he noted.
“What is it?” I asked.
“It’s been said that when mates share a strong bond, they can sometimes feel each other’s pain even before meeting, but it usually also means that they are very close to meeting,” he shared his theory.
“So, we could be meeting our mate soon, and for the past week we’ve been feeling her emotional pain, and now her physical? Is that what you’re saying?” I asked for confirmation.
“Yes, that’s it. But it’s just my theory. I could be very wrong,” he reminded.
“Let’s hope that you’re right, because it seems she needs us,” I realized.
“Then let’s go find her,” he chuckled lightly.
I shook my head and headed home even faster. Whereas it would’ve taken me four hours to get home, it took me two. My body was humming with a sense of dullness, and Nikolas couldn’t explain the feeling once more. I was met by Troy at the door, and even he looked surprised to see me back.
“I wasn’t expecting you for the next day and a half,” he commented.
“Why? Are you enjoying being alpha?” I taunted with a smirk.
His shoulders shook in laughter. “Nah, just surprised.”
“Is everything fine?” I questioned.
“Yep!” he replied.
“And the rogue?” I asked.
“I haven’t actually spoken to her, but I’ve seen her around. She looks harmless, and she really doesn’t look like she knows about our kind. She looks freaked out most of the time if anything,” he explained.
I raised an eyebrow, amused. “And what’s Troy’s opinion of her?”
“She’s really hot bro, but in a beautiful way, not a ‘I wanna bang her’ kind of way. I guess it’s in the genes,” he complimented.
“Falling for her are we?” I chuckled.
“Nah bro, she’s my cousin, and if anything, my wolf has been fighting me to protect her,” he stated, looking somewhat baffled.
I scowled. “Protect her?”
“I don’t understand it man. Right now, I feel dull, numb, and my body is freaking humming. I must sound crazy,” he chuckled.
I, on the other hand, was stunned.
“You don’t since that’s what I’m feeling. When did you start feeling like that?” I checked.
“About two hours ago,” he replied.
“Same time as me! Troy, do you know where the rogue is?” I asked.
“No, why?” he frowned.
“Because I think we need to find her,” I said as I started taking off my clothes.
Troy caught on and we shifted into our wolves once we had discarded of our clothes. We ran through the vast forest, not really knowing where to go, but suddenly Nikolas knew exactly where to go. I let him take the reins as he guided us through the trees.
He stopped suddenly, sniffing the air. I could smell the sweetest kind of vanilla, together with the scent of fresh wisteria flowers. I knew it was wisteria because my mother loves the flowers and she grows them everywhere on the walls at the back of the house.
Nikolas ran towards the scent at a speed I’d never experienced. He abruptly started growling very loudly when the scent of blood reached our noses. He has never reacted like this to blood before.
“That’s because I was right Silas. We’ve found our mate, and it’s her blood I smell. Someone hurt her,” he told me.
I took over the reins, with rage filling my veins.
Who the hell would dare hurt my mate? I will kill them.
I ran faster, until a figure came into view, making me growl loudly. I was sure everyone heard the powerful growl as they all tried to mind link me with their concerns. I couldn’t have cared less as I approached my mate. She was unconscious, and her breathing was shallow. Only when I stepped up to her, did I realize that she’s the rogue.
“Well this is interesting! You hate rogues, and yet the fates blessed you with a clueless one,” Troy chuckled in my head.
“Be wise and shut up at this very moment Troy. I’m not in the mood,” Nikolas pushed through.
“Ooh, the big boss,” Troy taunted before shifting. I followed suit. We put on the shorts that we normally put behind the trees.
I walked over to my mate to see her covered in bruises and blood. Most of her bones were sitting awkwardly, and would most probably need to be pushed back into position. I cringed at the very thought. Her blonde hair was covered with her blood, and I carefully moved it from her face, to reveal her swollen face. I growled loudly once more.
“Silas, you’re scaring everyone,” Troy pointed out.
“I don’t care!” I growled.
“Look bro, I get it, but Matt says there’s panic, so calm the growls down a bit. I’ve already called Dana over. She’ll be here in two minutes,” he responded. I nodded and stopped growling.
“Everything is fine. Go on with your lives,” Nikolas instructed everyone before blocking the mind link.
“Big boss doesn’t come out that often,” Troy chuckled.
“He’s pretty much ready to commit murder right now, and it’s taking everything in me not to let him,” I smiled weakly. Nikolas really was hungry for murder. He’s never been like this, even with the rogues that killed my father and grandfather. I caressed the beauty’s face.
“MINE!” Nikolas growled.
I heaved a heavy sigh. “Alright buddy, I hear you! We’re going to get her the best help we can, but I need you to calm down.”
“I don’t understand why YOU’RE so calm about this. Someone hurt our mate and she’s not healing,” he growled. I didn’t say anything.
“Wait a minute! You’re mad that she’s a rogue aren’t you?” he asked in disbelief.
SILA“I hate rogues Nikolas,” I reminded him.“I WILL FUCKING KILL YOU SILAS,” he roared.“You can’t kill me idiot,” I teased.“Silas, I swear, if you mistreat her, there will be consequences! She needs us and you WILL be there for her,”he demanded.“She’s a rogue Nikolas,” I said once more before shutting him out. I could feel him fighting to get me to listen to him.“He’s right you know,” Troy commented after a while.I was lost. “Who?”“Nikolas. You left your little argument open to me. He’s right. She may be a rogue, but you also have to remember that she doesn’t even know what she is. You can’t compare her to other rogues,” Troy argued.&ldqu
SILASDana and the other team of doctors worked on her while Troy kept me restrained. They put her in a coma since she wasn’t healing, meaning she would heal the human way. She had a cast on her leg. Dana notified me that everything else with her was fine, and that she would wake herself up when she’s ready.I was really worried, but I didn’t show it. Only the three doctors, Troy, and Dana were aware that I’d found my mate, and that she’s the rogue. I really wish I knew what her name was. I also wish I knew who brought her such pain.Why would anyone want to hurt my angel like that?“Bro, what I’ve been trying to figure out is how the hell you made it out of that cell! It’s 100% werewolf proof, and yet your stubborn powerful ass made it out. Silas, just how strong are you? I know you’re freakishly strong, but do you have any idea just how strong?” Troy asked me.&
He looked shocked but obliged. He bent down and that’s when I grabbed his ear and pinched it, hard. Dahlia and Dana gasped.“Stop growling at people! It’s very rude,” I whispered in his ear. I smiled when I watched him shiver before letting his ear go. He was furious but his eyes held lust.Weird!“I, don’t think, I will, ever, see anything, as funny, as that,” Troy said breathlessly in between laughs. He was standing at the door with my food in his hands as tears ran down his face.“Uh Angelina, you’ve got balls dear,” Dana laughed nervously as she eyed her brother. She and Dahlia shared the same fearful look.I shrugged. “It didn’t even hurt.”“Says you,” Silas grumbled angrily. He didn’t expect me to pull him back down and quickly place a kiss on his ear.“I’m sorry,” I whispered in the same ear. Again he shive
SILASAngelina...My beautiful Angel.Words can’t begin to describe how happy Nikolas and I are. Finding your mate really is something. She’s everything I could ever want in a woman, and so much more! She handles me in a way that no-one else would ever get away with.Her ear pinching stunt is my biggest indicator of that.I love her though. I know they say when you meet your mate, the love is instant, but you don’t really believe it until it happens. She’s really perfect, and I can tell that she’s going to be a wonderful Luna, once we figure out why her wolf isn’t coming out.I’m beyond curious about that.“Quite the mate you’ve got yourself there Keller,” Troy chuckled as I drove to my house.I smirked. “She is something isn’t she?”“The way she handles you is just amazing! I never thought anyo
“And I am yours,” I smiled.“That explains why I can’t stop thinking about you and why I feel empty when you’re not here,” she remarked. She could already feel it.“Yes, because I felt the same leaving you behind. Once we’ve mated, we’ll be able to hear each other’s thoughts, though we can block each other out. We’ll also be able to communicate via a mind link,” I told her.“Like telepathically?” she asked in excitement.“Yes,” I chuckled.“Ok! And what about this mating thing?” she asked.“Well, there’s three steps to it. The first step is to kiss, the second step is to have sex, and the third step is for me to mark you as you’re about to climax,” I replied.She blushed, hiding in my chest. “You just said that as though you’re discussing the price of bread with me.”“What d
SILASI woke up when I heard a car pull up. My instincts were more alert than most times. I scented the air and could smell Martha and Jorge. They were home. I looked to the beauty in my arms and realized that I hadn’t had such great sleep in a long time. Her lips were pouted as she breathed in and out, her breath warming my chest.I was tempted to kiss the pout off, but decided against it.“Angel, you have to get up now,” I whispered in her ear.“Why?” she moaned, instantly turning me on.“Woman, unless if you do not wish for me to take you right here, right now, making you scream my name to the depths of the heavens and back, with your grandparents downstairs, then I would suggest you get up,” I growled in her ear. She shot right up.“Silas, you’re only turning me on more,” she pointed out. I couldn’t understand until I smelled her arousal.
SILAS“She’s good for you,” Jorge commented once she was out of view.“Troy thinks so too,” I smiled.“Did you discuss everything?” Martha asked me.“I told her as much as I remember, so whatever I’ve forgotten, I’ll tell her when I remember,” I said. She nodded in understanding.“How did she take it?” Jorge chuckled.“I wasn’t the one to tell her, or even show her. She’s made friends with Dahlia and I left them here last night, only to have Dahlia call me to tell me that she’d passed out. Dahlia broke the news to her and showed her her wolf, making her freak,” I laughed.“I wish I could’ve been there. Angelina has always been one for attitude, so when she’s proven wrong, it’s quite the sight,” Martha giggled.“Well, she’s taking it better than I thought she would
SILASI helped her into the car before hopping in the other side. She turned on the radio and let it play softly in the background. She surprised me by taking my hand in hers as she looked around us. She looked like she was looking at everything differently for the first time.I squeezed her hand. “Penny for your thoughts?”“I’m just thinking about how I’ve never really thought about the possibility of there being something different about me. I mean, I’ve always questioned why my eyes look the way they do, but I could have never pegged it down to me being a werewolf. It makes me want to be acquainted with my wolf. I just feel like besides you, she’s my other reason for living, and I wish she could come out already. I know I’m supposed to feel complete with you in my life, and I do, but I also feel like I’m not personally complete. I lost my parents and little sister just over a week ago, and
