~Avia
I've decided I hate the snow.
But what I hate more, is sitting inside the cabin up the hill more.
This is because Isaiah is my mate, I know that. My patience has officially worn to scraps, and I can't be around these people anymore. I hate that I don't hate them. But if I have to hear Elise talk about marrying Isaiah one more time, I'm going to tear my hair out.
I just wish there is somewhere else to go though, that isn't so freezing.
At least the vie

~AviaShattered glass under my foot crunches as I walk into the home.I can think of at least five people that would be disgusted to find me here, but I can't help myself. Knowing how this Pack works, there is no guarantee there will ever be justice for the murdered, even if they are prolific families who have done nothing but bad for the rebellion.And mostly I want to know. Especially if Mari's family might be involved."This is dangerous," Kadrick mutters as he picks through the shattered glass, following me into what must be the main living area of t

~AviaI'm mortified.If I'm caught here, I'm done for. Elise will trot happily back to Isaiah to tell him all about me, and how I came here without telling him. And no doubt they would see Kadrick, would only raise more questions I don't have answers to.“I never liked him," I hear Elise grumble, moving into the office we were just in. Both of them start sorting through what we were, likely to find nothing of value there either.But what has motivated them to com

~AviaI stare up at the ceiling, thinking about Isaiah.I've found my mate, and the effects of it are already hitting me. When I first learned what mates were, I didn't think that when I found them, I wouldn't want to drop everything in my life to be with them. So now, the mental and physical symptoms of avoiding my mate are starting to weigh down upon me.For the past few days, I've done everything in my power not to cross paths with him, and now I feel perpetually unwell. It's not overwhelming, but it's noticeable, buried deep inside me, curling up uncomfortably within me.

~AviaIsaiah is already standing at the cell when I enter the room.Sure enough, Kadrick is behind the bars, glancing up at me when I rush in. He exposes nothing through his expression, having been expertly trained by Malin and I for if something like this happened. Part of me wants to lurch forward and slap him for being foolish enough to fall into a trap and get himself caught, but I know I have to act as though I only know him as Isaiah's ex personal guard."Kenna, you shouldn't be here," Isaiah mutters. That can only mean one thing.Isaiah appears fa

~AviaI already know this is going to go terribly.Upon entering the compound, I can sense Malin's mood from everyone else's reactions. Nobody speaks to me as I walk past, most even avoiding eye-contact with me. They know I'm in trouble, and I know it too. But I refuse to allow Malin to walk all over me. I run this Rebellion too, whether she likes it or not.Malin is exactly where I figured she would be in. Wandering into her office, I don't bother knocking. She lounges on a couch pressed against the far wall, looking into the blazing fire with a stoic expression.

~AviaWith my hand over my eyes, I lounge under the sun, enjoying the silence, tainted only by the sound of Savea flipping through the pages of her book next to me.Cherry speaking startles my eyes open again. "And what do we owe the pleasure of having the Alpha join us for tea this afternoon."Isaiah stalks up the steps, looking over us all. I sit up in my seat immediately, surprised he's bothered to come out to the gazebo where he knows we have our afternoon tea. Usually he doesn't disturb the four of us."It's a nice day, and I'm bored," he comments,

~AviaExcitement curls up in my stomach, making it twist and flutter uncontrollably.I can't believe I'm going on a date with Isaiah. It's something I've silently wanted, but never thought would ever happen. Although I'm not going to allow this to go very far, not wanting to risk him finding out we are mates, but I do want to enjoy myself.Because I feel as though I haven't in a very long time."Didn't know you could drive," I note, twisting to look at Isaiah. He's driving into the city tonight, instead of having one of his staff bring him in.Isaiah smirks. "I'm not completely incompetent.""Why do you learn how to fight?" I ask softly. I've wanted to ask for awhile, and not just because I want to determine how strong he will be when the rebellion takes over. Seeing him that night all those months ago was haunting, knowing how deep in his anger was, to the point his knuckles were bloodied."I like it, it's like a release," he admits. I wonder if it has something to do with his father

~AviaTears stream down my face as I drive, aiming for the city.I can't go back, not now. The mission is over, and I failed. All I can do now is hope Malin will take me back into the Rebellion, otherwise I'm going to have to create a life elsewhere. It hurts to think about leaving Isaiah, never seeing him again, but I can't risk him forcing me to stay with him, to be with him when I want nothing to do with leading this Pack.Eventually I make it into the city, my tears drying as a sense of responsibility drapes over me. I've known I wouldn't be able to make this work for a while, so this shouldn't have come as a surprise.I just wish I didn't allow myself to be so weak in that moment...I shouldn't have let him kiss me.Once I've made it deep into the city, I park and change quickly into clothing in the back of my car. I need to get some sleep, in this quiet parking lot, with what remaining hours of night time are left, and then head to the compound in the morning.I wake a few hours
