Once he shut the door behind him, he stood by beside the door outside. With his back against the wall, he closed his eyes as he attempted to think things through again, right from where he stopped before he heard her voice earlier. That silent groan filled with pain had been clear to him at that time and he had no choice but to rush in to check on her.
He needed answers as to how she had gotten attacked but she hadn’t helped matters by not telling him what he wanted to hear. Why couldn’t she just tell him the truth about Kylie confronting her? He really couldn’t tell who she was trying to protect, whether it was him or his sister.
There was no way he would suspect his sister having a hand in the rogue attack, but as Adaliah kept on bottling up her emotions, it made it hard for him to know what else she was keeping from him. Probably key information that he could use to find the actual culprit.
At dawn,
I was sitting in my room with no hope of leaving anytime soon. And it’s because I’m still on the verge of recuperation. I needed to get back to full recovery before I could even think of going out. I have healed already. You couldn’t even see any scar on my body to indicate I had been brutally attacked some days back but my insides were entirely different. My internal system was screaming in pain and I think I might pass out anytime soon. I wonder what had been used against me to make me feel so much pain like this. The rate at which I was vulnerable was that I couldn’t even take a step without feeling hurt around my waist. It has been a really difficult two days for me. And more of a lonely one too. In the past, whenever I was down or bored, I always had Anya to cheer me up. But for two days now, I haven’t been in touch with her. She had completely zoned out of the space she had in my head, but I could still feel
‘Uncle…’ I make a slight break as I try to summon up the courage in me. When I do, I finally say, ‘I’m forfeiting the mission,’Announcing that was probably the hardest decision I have ever taken in the last two years of my life. Probably harder than the time I had decided to be under the custody of my grandmother who wasn’t anything my parent, although that was much more than two years ago.I can’t say I regret making the decision because I have to do it. I do not think I’m left with any other choice. It’s been barely two weeks, or should I say more than two weeks, since I familiarized myself with this pack. However, the experience of those two weeks has been one I never expected to even encounter.First, I get threatened to leave my mate by a jealous wimp and a likely overprotective sister and friend. The next thing is that I almost get killed by rogue wolves
“Ronald, are you sure we are doing the right thing?” Simon asked as he kept his eyes on the road ahead. He had his hands gripped on the steering wheel while driving deep inside the woods. Even though his vision was almost obstructed due to the overshadowing of the trees on both sides of the road, he still forged ahead.As he hadn’t received a response — which he mostly expected — from his companion yet, he continued speaking, “I don’t think going to meet with the elder is a great idea. We could end up building a false accusation against him and that wouldn’t be good for the pack’s reputation,”“I know what I am doing,” came the response from the Alpha in the passenger’s seat. Something similar to a snarl, although silent, accompanied the Alpha’s response.Still, Simon wasn’t afraid to ask, “And you think you are not doing this
A funny expression appeared on the elder’s face as soon as he heard that from the alpha. He wasn’t sure if he was to laugh because found the accusation funny. He had to look at both the alpha and his companion to ascertain if it wasn’t a joke. But with their serious facades, he knew it was a serious situation. What else could he expect from the ever-serious alpha?The elder coughed before speaking, “I have nothing to say concerning your allegation against me, Alpha Ronald,” he followed up his statement with a smile before looking away from the two by the side.“It is not an allegation, Elder Damien. As I said before, I’m only trying to clarify if you have a hand in what happened,” Ronald countered instantly with his voice turning ice cold. It was simply indicating he wasn’t there for casuals.The elder had already picked up a book from the collection he had on the foo
Someone barged into my room while I was trying to shut my eyes close for a quick nap, and before I knew it, I was up on my feet. I’m starting to wonder if no one around here knew how to knock because this wasn’t the first time I’m experiencing such an attitude. I set my eyes on the intruder to see it was Garrett. I should have expected it because lately, he has been doing nothing but come into my room to check on me, which I wasn’t really okay with but have no choice but to adhere to. Except for this time, there was something different about the way he came in as well as his expression which showed he was rather annoyed. Before I could say anything about his sudden intrusion, he beats me to speak. “Why didn’t you tell me?” was the question he threw at me, and it felt more like a snap. Okay, now I was pretty annoyed. Why didn’t I tell him what? That he has no right to barge in like that? Or th
I can’t be blamed for still harboring the thought of the first-time pleasure I explored with Garrett. Being a newbie to such, it was hard to get the experience out of my head. It made it seem like it was just yesterday it had happened even though it has been a week already.The feeling I still had from it was something I don’t have the right words for. It felt like I went through a phase and was about to start a new one, if that was the best way I could describe the feeling. But what I do know is that I want to go through that feeling again.I never expected it to happen. And with my constant saucy behavior toward Garrett, I never imagined he would pull such a stunt. But he did. And here I am, still unable to keep him out of my mind. The fact that I didn’t pull away was enough to know I needed that kiss from him.I think I believe now that the first kiss with the right person was the most magical. It is
“I feel this is kind of odd, telling me you’ve got something to show me yet you won’t tell me what it is,” Ronald complained while bending a little to avoid hitting his head on the branch of a tree which seemed to have discarded due to an artificial cause.His face was a bit distorted as he had a huge distaste for the location he was in. And to make matters worse, his accomplice wasn’t telling him anything about where they were headed.It would have been okay if they weren’t deep inside the woods, and unfortunately, the direction they were passing through was the direction that led to where something unexpected occurred in the pack. He didn’t want to take his chances to walk into a dangerous situation despite trusting his supposed guide.“Could you just answer me, Simon? I’m sick of being kept in the dark,” he complained again, this time not to with an authorita
There was a sharpshooting pain in my waist that almost made me shriek until I realized I wasn’t alone. The pain came as a result of me trying to abide by the instruction given to twist the torso as a warm-up in the joint pack training I was in — the second joint training I was getting involved in since I arrived at this pack.It was obvious now that I haven’t completely healed from my internal injuries. Being rammed against trees at different times was no joke. I’ve had the opportunity to see the pack doctor already, but he told me to give it time to heal, citing the waist pain was a mild injury. Except I don’t believe a pain of two weeks now was mild. Made me feel I was human again.With a hand to my waist, so I could put pressure on the affected part, I look around to see the others, both male and female warriors, doing the same move that I stopped doing not too long ago. It was an easy one that I should never
