40. The plan
I don’t run, something tells me that Daryl will come after me if he hears or senses me running, but I walk quickly whilst making my way through the hallways, I still had a job to remember where I was going but it was getting a little easier each day. Heading out the front door, I check behind me, there was still no sign of Daryl but I was certain he would be watching me or have others watching.
Outside I see Jordan milling around with some younger wolves and hurry over to her, without even hesitating she stops what she is doing and meets me and shortly after, Christian spots us and strides towards us, his face full of concern but when I don’t say anything he looks at me curiously and I get out a piece of paper and pen that I had stuffed in my pocket, I quickly scrawl what I need to say and hand it to Christian whilst Jordan watches me curiously.
‘How do I stop him listening into my thoughts?’
“There is only one option Ashley, wolfsbane”

I couldn’t see it, I just couldn’t imagine Daryl as a weak little boy, nor could I picture him being bullied ever, he was a mountain of muscles, he kept himself to himself and only spoke if he had something to say and I had seen the fear in peoples faces when they had registered Daryl and who he was. Tana had dropped to her knees in forgiveness on hearing he was the Alpha of Alphas.“He was really an Omega?” He had told me himself yet he had lied about so many other things and I really had to know the truth, I just hope he couldn’t hear me“Yes he was, in my father’s pack” We were actually good friends and I hoped he would be my future Beta but then after the curse he challenged the Alpha of the Crescent pack” Christian grimaces “I never knew of his plans to become a hybrid; else I would have stopped him. It was to late by the time I discovered what had happened”.I had so many questions but the b
Alpha Daryl 42. Poisoned
The sound of his voice appears in my head regularly yet I had no clue who was speaking or what they were saying, when I look at the man who was driving, his eyes were firmly fixed on the road ahead but his jaw was clenched giving him a strong defined jaw line.He glances at me and smiles, but the smile doesn’t reach his eyes, oh my goddess, I am being kidnapped.He reaches a hand out, but I pull away, squishing myself into the space between the seat and the door. The man with the shaven head looks at me concerned and leans further over, telling me something about sitting in my seat and when I don't move, he pulls me back on to my seat.My head was starting to hurt and the scratching in my head was becoming more and more persistent, the man driving pulls out a phone and starts talking to someone but his words are muffled as he spoke and he kept glancing at me. When he hangs up the car gains some speed and we eventually arrive at a pair of large metal gates,
Alpha Daryl 43. Angering the Alpha
After a couple of days, things started to make sense again. I understood now that Paige had poisoned me because I had challenged her over her feelings towards Daryl, it turned out the little dab of wolfsbane worked in keeping Daryl out of my head but not in helping me to heal, it was why the poison was having such a bad effect on me because I was unable to heal and it was clear Paige knew exactly what she was doing when she offered me that banana that was laced in poison.Christian and Daryl had taken it in turns to stay with me and Daryl had forgiven me for not having a clue who he was and for choosing Christian over him but only once he found out the severity of what the poison could do to me. Christian was still finding it hilarious that I chose him and was constantly winding Daryl up over it but now with everything happening if Daryl wasn’t with me then Christian was the only one allowed to be. For some reason Jordan wasn’t even allowed to guard me anymore and
Alpha Daryl 44. A normal day
I refused to answer any of his questions and when he told me I would be punished for refusing to obey, I just shrug my shoulders because I knew that my silence was getting under his skin.He marched me all the way to our bedroom and told me that if I wasn’t talking I could stay here until I was ready to talk. He turns and walks away, not even glancing back and pulls the door tightly shut. A few moments later it was followed by the turn of the lock. The asshole had locked me in.Fine, if he wanted to play it that way, then I would figure out a way to escape. I checked the windows but they were all locked too although there was one that he had forgotten about, the bathroom window. It was small but then so was I and I reckon I could just about fit.Climbing up onto the basin, I push the window, which just about opened all the way without swinging back on me, it was a long drop down, but anything had to be better than staying here. Carefully manoeuvring myself
Alpha Daryl 45. Discovered
“Are you sure?” I kept my words to a whisper“Yes, now we will have to play it cool”“What do you mean?”“We will need to act like we are a couple”. He keeps his voice low as his speaks, almost a whisper and I wondered how strong the vampires hearing was and if it was like wolves“Do you think they are here for me?”Christian shrugs his shoulders, “They might just be scoping out the place for their next meal”I shuddered at the idea and then remembered that I had actually enjoyed drinking blood but I was grateful I wasn’t hunting for it.Grabbing Christians arm, I smile and tell him to lead the way and try not to look in the direction Christian had. I don’t know how convincing my acting would be, but I was certainly going to try my best.Christian walks us inside the building and we take a seat, Christian sits opposite me in the large booth and
Alpha Daryl 46. Death and destruction
This was not what I had planned when Christian promised me a normal day. Matthew drops my hand, whilst the other two vampires come towards us. Christian leaves his seat and shoves Matthew out of the way, putting himself between us.“Matthew, you are being stupid, have you seen my mate, she is tiny”“Christian, step out of the way, she is a danger to us all”I watch as Matthews fangs extend along with those of his two men, their eyes firmly on Christian and I“Christian, I felt it, the dark power she holds, the power that only a Royal could hold”“I’m not….”, But Matthew cuts me off, cursing Christian for hiding my truth.“Matthew, stand down”. Christian’s eyes start turning black and I knew he was close to shifting, what was strange was how the people in the busy restaurant had now turned to face the commotion and yet they still remained silent.“What
Alpha Daryl 47. Reaper
As we arrive at the gates of Crescent pack, Daryl was already waiting for us along with Cole and Jordan. I climb out the car and he immediately runs his eyes over me wearing Christians jacket, all the way down to my bare legs.“Would you rather I left her naked?” Christians comment was snarky and I knew what he was trying to say, he was doing me a favour.“Inside” is all Daryl says and walks me to the packhouse. I couldn’t tell if he was annoyed or angry with me but he wasn’t willing to talk whilst we were outside. Some of the pack members were hovering around and giving us strange looks, well they were probably looking at me wearing just a jacket that barely covered my ass or maybe they were looking at the scars that littered my legs.Christian follows us and as we walk up into the packhouse, he pauses but Daryl tells him to come inside. We walk in silence to Daryl’s office and once inside he locks the door. “What
Alpha Daryl 48. An uncontrollable urge
It was a long night and no I don’t mean sex, we spent the night talking, mostly about us, about the shit that was going on but I still didn’t tell him that I could hear Reaper, I think right now, it would just be too much for him to know that I could hear my monster and that yes in fact we did actually mind control the humans as well as mess with the footage, which I still dont understand how we did that.Just as I was finally dropping off to sleep, Daryl turns my face to his, I thought he was going to kiss me but instead he asks me why I like being around Christian so much, I could tell the truth, or I could lie, I choose to do both and tell him that Christian listens to me and doesn’t try to shut me up when I need to speak but I fail to admit that I actually really liked Christian as more than a friend.“I am sorry Ash, I should have never doubted you” and he gently kisses me on the lips, he doesn’t try anything else and the tingly
