After I woke up Arya told me that Armand was trapped in his mind. I did what I could to get him to be in the present, but it wasn't easy. After I finally got him to snap out of it he took me on a tour of the house. He kept referring to it as ours and I was curious as to why, but didn't ask him. I was shocked when we reached the fourth floor and saw how big it was. He led me to a room that he called ours and I followed him. I felt like my eyes would bulge out of my head when I took in the massive room. It was decorated in dark blues, golds, and blacks. The bed was large and stood between two floor to ceiling windows that were draped with golden curtains. The bed had a dark blue blanket on it and two pillows with gold colored pillow cases on them.
I walked along the plush black carpet as I made my towards the bed. I saw two black doors on one side of the room and a soft looking black two seater couch on the other side. There was a fireplace and large black box on
After dinner we cleaned up and all went to the living room to watch a movie. I smiled as I snuggled against Armand’s side on the couch. We picked out some Disney movie to watch, but I wasn’t paying attention to it. My thoughts had slipped to the darkest part of my mind where the memories of last year lay dormant. I tried to suppress the vivid images that would plague my mind. I tensed for a moment when I felt movement on my arm before I relaxed remembering it was just my mate. “Are you alright love?”He asked softly as our eyes met. I forced a smile and nodded. He frowned before pulling me even closer. “Love, I know you’re not. I will not force you to talk about it; however, please don’t tell me you are alright when it’s written in your eyes and on your face that you aren’t”He stated before placing a soft kiss to my forehead. I closed my eyes and rested my head on his chest thankful he didn’t force me to talk about it. I smiled as he rested his head on top of mine thankful he was
Valerian and I had been planning on how to tell Jax for a few hours now. By the time our plan was set it was already 4pm. We quickly got the items together so we would be ready by dinner time. I had asked Armand to invite Jax to dinner here. He was happy to do so.“This is gonna be so great!”I said with a huge smile as we put the last baby item into the box and closed it. Valerian yawned softly as I began to wrap the gift. He smiled at me as I put a nice gold bow on the top. “Do you think he’s going to be excited?”He asked as we headed downstairs to begin making dinner. I nodded as we took the steps slowly so neither of us tripped. “I think he is going to be thrilled!”I said with excitement in my voice. Soon enough we entered the kitchen. Valerian sat on a barstool by the counter while I got out the ingredients. We were making one of Jax’s favorite foods. “I’m scared though”Valerian said as I mixed smashed up avocados with some salt and pepper in a bowl. “I know, after everyth
Hi lovelies,First and foremost I wanted to apologize. It’s been so long since I updated any stories and for that I’m terribly sorry. My personal life was flipped upside down and not in a good way. I’m slowly working on new chapters, but my personal life and health are still not where they need to be. I also went through a long time of writers block on where to go with the story; however, I know which way the story is headed. For those that continue to read my stories, I am thankful. You all are amazing. ~Ari~
I looked next to Valerian where Jax stood and my smile faltered. The forefront thought that came to my mind was that we had all lost our pups. I felt like my heart was tugged on tightly by a spiral of barbed wire as the images of what the witches had done flooded into my mind. I didn't realize I had zoned out in thought until I felt the sparks spread across my arms and chest area. I inhaled deeply and leaned back just a little trying to be as close as possible to Armand as I could while the world around me came back into sight. "Are you alright, My Love?" I finally heard him ask after a few more moments of me inhaling deeply using his scent to help me calm down. I didn't realize that I had been digging my nails into my hand to the point of almost bleeding until my vision came back into focus. I inhaled once more before I responded to him. "I...I'm fine" I said softly unsure of how I actually felt. I looked around again and noticed my parents were also there staring at us. They loo
When I woke up I was chained to a large bed in a dark room. I could just barely feel Arya in the back of my mind and I knew it would take time. I didn't know how long I had been out for and felt extremely weak. I looked around the large room and almost gagged when I smelled my old alpha's scent lingering in the air. I began to wonder if he had done anything to me while I was asleep, but didn't want to the answer to that either. I looked down my body and realized I was still in the same clothes from before. They were ripped and covered in blood, but still mostly covered me.-"Arya, I know I can't really contact you right this moment, but I hope you hear this. I promise to get us out of here"-I mentally told her just hoping she would hear that. I didn't know what the witch had done, but it had a long lasting effect it seemed. I took a moment before I began to try and unlock the padlock that kept the
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few moments before I heard a scuffling sound as if the phone was transferred to another person. "We will be there in two hours, please wait for us" I heard in the soft feminine voice of my mother-in-law. I nodded once before remembering they couldn't hear a nod causing me to respond verbally. "I will wait two hours, but after that I am leaving to get Artemis back it has been way too long already." I said before hanging up the phone and walking out of my office. I ended up pacing the floor, in the main living room, as everyone else returned using Alpha Kincaid's vehicles. I looked up briefly as Jax and Valerian entered the room. They were holding onto each other like they would disappear any second and I didn't blame them. I returned to pacing only pausing when Valerian spoke up. "I want to go with when you go to get Artemis back" He said while meeting my eyes with his. I could see a swirl of black in them before I looked away
