//Zander\\***A year Later***"Daddy! daddy look! There is a big house and a city." Daisy jumped up and down in her seat as we both looked out of the window of the plane.“ Yes, honey, that’s the city uncle Eros and Aunty Allison live in . It’s called Alaska “. I looked at Rose’s daughter's excited expression as she grinned at me.Her cute dimples dented both sides of her chubby cheeks and her hazel eyes, which were just like Rose’s were gleaming with happiness.Daisy was a replica of her mother. The sight of her smile and happy face put both Axel, my wolf and I at ease. She was the only thing that kept Axel from going rogue. My stomach churned at the thought of my dead mate. I can still recall the tenderness in her voice before she breathed her last."Do you think we can spot uncle Eros's house from here, daddy ?” She asked naively in her sweet baby voice. At five years old, she was quite inquisitive and very intelligent for her age. She asked questions that made me question her age a
//Raven\\" Goddamnit! I'm late...Fuck! " I yelled internally as I stared at the time on my phone. I was so lost in my job that I didn't realize it was late.Shit! Jess is going to kill me and bury my remains deep within the woods. Darting out of my employers' house, my heart thudded and my breath became ragged. A year has passed by since Jess and I crossed the borders of Sky Moon Clan. And I couldn't be more grateful to Eros and Allison for getting me a job in the houses of three elite families that live close to the clan's territory."Raven!""Raven wait! I'm coming with you." Lee called out as I dashed out of the Davis mansion.Aleera was a friend of Jess and I. We addressed her as Lee for short. She was the first friend we made when we arrived at the pack. She is the type of girl who knows what she wants. She is tall, bold and confident in her body. She has red pixie hair and grey eyes.Lee was just breathtaking and looked good in whatever she wore."Sorry Lee, I don't have time
//Zander\\After training with Maddox, Terrance, and the guys, I took a warm shower and slipped on sweatpants and a shirt. I then made my way to the kitchen to find something to eat.An incredible, salivating smell filled the entire floor and I looked at the open U-shaped kitchen to see a tiny lady working ardently around the stove.She was not more than 5'2 feet with long black hair that bounced behind her as she moved to work.The woman felt my eyes on her and she turned and blushed when she saw me staring at her."Daddy,!" I snapped my head to see Daisy running into the room. "Aunty Allison and uncle Eros let me ride their wolves in the woods. They were beautiful. You should see me, dad. I was flying in the sky like an angel." Daisy excitedly jumped up and down, smiling brightly. Hugging my legs.This was the best smile I have seen on her face in months."I'm happy you liked it, sweetie. " I pushed back her curls from her face and stared into her beautiful eyes with a smile of my o
//Author// It was 7 pm that night. Dry leaves whistled and rustled on the ground in the fall wind. Raven and Lee emerged from the car and winced at the sudden chills. Raven clutched her coat around her body and they quickly rushed towards the Zee club. Lee and Raven made their way up into the club. Raven was star-struck when she saw the number of people there. Everyone was in a celebratory mood under the neon lights. Music blustered loudly, blowing up her eardrum. The scent of sweat, alcohol and tobacco mixed with perfumes of various kinds hit her nostrils. She scrunched her nose as she moved through the crowd. Members of the clan were dancing and having the moment of their lives on the dancefloor. Raven passed the club manager and owner, Eli, talking to his son Tyler. She immediately lowered her to avoid being seen by him. Tyler has been a pain in her ass ever since she came to the clan. Raven did not bother to look in his direction because the guy was a parasite she was trying
//Author//Walking into the club, a sweet caramel scent hit Zander's nostrils like a ton of brick and Axel growled in absolute excitement.The smell that was pumped through the club was different. The scent was purer and sweeter."Who is that scent from?" Axel whined in Zander's head, happily.Zander snapped his head frantically ignoring the women that stepped his way....and when his eyes locked on the raven-headed woman, he lost his breath.She had the purest sapphire eyes he had ever seen as she sat lounging on the couch with three women he very well knew.Zander was stricken by her beauty. He can say he was hypnotized by her enchanting appearance." Is that the new girl?" he asked Maddox in a hoarse voice."Umm... Yes, her name is Raven. I don't know much about her, but from what I have heard so far, I can tell she is a sweet innocent girl." Maddox said before his eyes darted to Jess, Iris, and finally settled on his sister.Sweet? Innocent?,,,naa.. She doesn't look innocent in tha
//Author//"I know what you are" Zander hissed through his teeth and dug his extended claws into Raven's arm. Pain unfurled through her arm and a whimper escaped her lips. The pain was nothing compared to the intense electricity and tingles she was experiencing from Zander's touch. "I know you are my mate and I don't want to be part of this bond. I DON'T WANT A MATE! And I'm sure as hell I DON'T WANT YOU!" Zander growled out. Pain spread across Raven's chest. Zander's words were cruel and brought her nothing but agony. When he touched her she felt strong sparks. The same very sparks her mother told her about when she was little.Raven gasped and her sapphire eyes widened in realization.Mate!Mate! her inside clenched.Her mouth moved. She wanted to say the word mate, but, like usual, no word came out of her mouth.Zander's brows knitted confused to see the shock on Raven's face...Didn't she feel the sparks the first time?"I, Zander Lucien Sloan, the beta of the Golden Lycan pack
//Raven//"Where have you been? I was worried," Jess expressed, as soon as I trudged into the house."I am fine, Jess. I went for a walk." I faked a smile but Jess could see right through my forced smile."Tell me....what's wrong? Why are you so down? No faking this time." Jess asked, passing me a worried look as she trailed behind me to my bedroom.I didn't know what to say to her. I didn't want Jess to worry about my problems with Zander.So I just walked into the bathroom and closed the door quickly, behind me.Ten minutes after being locked in the bathroom, I cracked the door open and was shocked to see Jess patiently waiting for me.She didn't move an inch. She was resting on my bed with her legs up in the air. Leisurely waiting for me.I rolled my eyes at the ‘I'm not going anywhere, look in Jessica's eyes.’"Go to bed, Jessica. You have work in the morning," I signed."So do you." Jess frowned at the tactics I was using to get her out of my way.She was expecting the truth from
//Raven//The banging was loud as someone hit the door destructively. I woke up startled and it was morning already. The sun was up, glaring down at me through the open window."Raven....Raven!!!" I heard my name being called out and I turned to find Jessica’s side of the bed empty. I rolled over, groaning, almost falling off my bed. I felt rested after hours of sleep. My mind was completely blank with no immediate recollection of what transpired the previous evening. Goddess, what time was it? I swung my legs over to the edge of the bed."Raven open up!" the bang on the door got louder.I got up and advanced towards the door and flung it open, to find one of Allison's omegas at the door. I frowned at her. What was she doing here? Has something happened to Jess?"Good morning Raven. Sorry to wake you up, but the Luna wants to have breakfast with you at her place." I heaved a sigh and the frown on my face increased.Why does Allison want to see me? Does she know about Zander and I?
