Jayden’s POV“I'm going back to Foxtown”, I tell my father.It's the first time we're meeting in months since I returned home.We are in the throne room, and my father has his back to me. He was telling me about my coronation which is around the corner.My father turns slowly to stare at me, his face livid with anger.“Have you taken leave of your senses?” He barks.“Barely”, I reply drily. I'm in no mood to argue with him right now. My mind is already made up, and there is little he can do to stop me.Foxtown is in disarray, and there's no way I will fold my arms and do nothing when they show me nothing but kindness throughout my stay there."You know she's the main reason you want to go", my inner voice whispered. The voice was not far from the truth. Jovita is my first reason for wanting to return to Foxtown. I fear for her safety, but mostly, I miss her.Life without her in the past months has been hell, days dutifully lived just because it's meant to be lived. I have become an em
Jayden's POVMy father stared at me like he was staring at a ghost that had suddenly made an announced appearance.“What did you just say?” My dad thunder.He turns to stare at me, and I can see his hazel eyes have taken a brighter shade. “You once fought for Mom’s love, she told me”. My voice is a bit hesitant. My father and I haven't talked about my mom in years. It was a raw subject for both of us.“She did?” He asked in a low, broken voice."Yes", I reply.Eighteen years ago “Mom, can you please tell me a story?” Jayden’s seven-year-old version asked his Mom”.She smiled brightly, her beautiful heart-shaped face lighting up. “What do you want to hear, my child?”“A story about royals. About a princess and a prince”.They were sitting around a small tea table, on the rooftop of their huge mansion. His mother was dressed in a flowing green gown and endowed with matching shoes, earrings, necklaces, and bracelets. As a child, he had thought that she was the most beautiful woman he
Jayden’s POV“What happened Mom?” Little Jayden prompted.His mother smiled, running her hands through his long, black hair.Rufus was furious and so was her father. “I would marry her in two days”, Rufus had said, openly ogling her body. His huge, fat frame towered over her father as he spoke. Rumours had it that the many scars on his face, his missing right arm, and his crooked nose were a result of the great battles he had fought and won. He, however, looked like a man who was once every woman's dream.The wedding was moved to the next two days, and Kara was forbidden from leaving the house until the day she would journey to her husband's castle.Kara was devastated. She wept, cried, and protested, but all her efforts proved futile. The night before her wedding, she went to her father to cry. She and her twin brother, Castiel had always been his favorite of all his twelve children, and he adored her.“Why would you do this to me, father?” She asked in tears.“I'm sorry my child.
Jovita's POVI plucked a red apple from the short apple tree in Anna's garden.My besties and I were relaxing in the middle of Anna’s garden.We spent time with each other more frequently, because my besties were scared I was mopping too much.My parents and friends were relieved since I was starting to leave the house, and I was beginning to be aware of my surroundings.“Did he say why?” I ask Maddie.She had just told me that Phil wanted to see me.“Nope. I'm getting jealous, he takes care of you more than me now”, Maddie joked.“I promise to make it come to an end soon. I'm getting better now”.Maddie and Anna shared a smile.“It doesn't matter, Jovie, you can spend as much time as you want”.“What time does he want to meet up and where?”“At the beach, by 6 pm”, Maddie replied.“Okay”, I mumbled.“You need to dress hot”, Anna said, laughing.“I'd hate to lose my neck to Maddie”, I joked.The three laughed happily, hugging each other.By 6 pm, Maddie dressed me up in a black boyfri
Jayden’s POVMy heart broke as Jovita wept on my chest. I curse myself over and over again for hurting her this much. When she is done crying, I try to wipe her face, but she pushes my hand.“What are you doing here?” She asks. Her voice sounds broken.“You don’t want me here? I’d understand that”, I reply in a low voice. She had every right to not want me, to tell me to leave, but I didn’t want to leave. I’m tired of staying away from her, it’s the most painful decision I’ve made since I could remember.Before Jovita, I was lonely, sad, broken, and unhappy. I didn’t know what love meant. I forgot how to love, and I never saw myself as worthy of being loved, after all the terrible things I have done. I forgot what love was, and I lived life meaninglessly. But when I met her, it came so easily. The feeling of being loved, of loving. The feeling of caring for people, and being scared of losing them. I never knew I could experience this emotion again. I can’t live without Jovita anymor
Jovita’s POV“Okay, when are you going to forgive him?” Maddie asks, giving me a fierce look. Maddie and I are lying on my tiny bed, in my room. It's been almost a month since Jayden returned, and I’ve been ignoring him. Before you judge me, he hurt me badly, and I’m not having it easy on him.“I don’t know”, I reply, leisurely, playing with a strand of my hair.My besties and the white brothers, except Seth, have been pleading with me to give Jayden another chance, but I’ve been adamant.Speaking of Seth, well, we’re going to see a movie tomorrow night. Is it to make Jayden jealous? Hell, yes!I don’t care if I’m being childish, but he left for almost a year and suddenly returned. What did he expect? An extravagant welcome? A lavish party or a bear hug?“Stop being stupid, Jovita. I know you’re angry at him, but don’t you think this too extreme? You’ve been ignoring him, and now you’re going out with Seth. Don’t you think you’re being extreme”.“Just leave me to my anger, Maddie”,
Jovita's POV"He's here!" Maddie screamed in a shrill voice.My head snapped in the direction of the entrance door along with many others.There had been a rumour earlier this week that there was a new Alpha on Foxtown town. He had relocated from Alaska due to a clash with the cold ones; he had killed one of their royals and had been suspended from his pack for two moons to maintain peace.According to the rumour, he was going to be attending Torin High School, which was my school."God, he is so hot!" Anna screamed."Cut it out!" Betty snapped at me and my two best friends, Maddie and Anna.Betty was Maddie’s distant cousin, and the Luna of the most powerful werewolf pack in Foxtown; her family was what you call royalty in the human world.Rumour had it that Betty had shifted during the spring break, and this had Alphas lining up and waiting, hoping the moon goddess would favour them with such a powerful Luna.I drew my besties backwards as Betty walked forward to meet the new Alpha;
Jayden’s POVI looked around at the strange faces as I drove into Foxtown. I was meant to come a day earlier with my cousin and best friend Eric, but I had a few issues to sort out, so I asked him to go before me.Instead of going home from the airport, I decided to drive straight to Torin High School to meet him.On getting there, I was told the students were having lunch already and directed to the cafeteria.When I walked in, the whole room turned to stare at me, but I continued my search for Eric unbothered; I was used to people throwing admiring stares.Just as my eyes fell on Eric, I cut the scent of something familiar other than Eric’s scent, and I felt my body react with excitement. _She’s here,_ the voice in my head whispered."Hey man," Eric said, coming to hug me; he must have perceived my scent."My flight was delayed, otherwise I’d have arrived earlier". "How is your first day at school going?""Not bad. I’m popular with the boys already, I got the girls drooling, and thi
