I had on a black hoodie and a blue worn out jean as I stepped out of my room. I hadn't forgotten about the person I'd left in front of my door last night so I was a bit shocked when I stepped outside and didn't collide with him. I looked around to see if he had rolled away but no. I couldn't find any trace of him. I shrugged and brushed it aside. It wasn't my business anyway.I went to the kitchen so I could do my morning chores then eat but I wasn't granted access.“You're not allowed to enter, ma'am," Lis said, bowing lowly. I was slightly shocked but I had a hunch of what had changed their attitudes. “What's all this about? Move and let me pass," I said, trying to force them away. I looked at Amelia who was at the far corner and I went to her. “Amelia, I'm sure you don't want me to get in trouble with father," I pleaded with her.“I’m sorry, ma'am. These orders are from your father. We're not allowed to let you into the kitchen until further notice," she murmured. "What? That's,
“Don't worry, princess, you're not dying anytime soon," a familiar voice said as I felt a presence beside me. I looked beside me to see Nikolai standing in all his glory. He was wearing a suit and his hands were in his pocket. I didn't know and I didn't care how he got here. I was just glad he did. Everyone else had a shocked yet mortified look.“Surprised?" Nikolai asked, raising a brow at them. He pulled out a phone from his pocket and turned it to show them a video.“I'll hide the ring in her bag. You put it in her drink, right?" Ruth's voice came through the phone. She, Daniel, my father and Alpha Richard were discussing in the video. They spoke some more about how they were planning on framing me for the theft of her ring. My jaw slacked and my mouth fell wide open when I heard the last thing my father said.“Just make sure you kill her before Nikolai gets here. And don't make it obvious that it was a murder," he said. I looked at him but his eyes held no remorse. Only fear. Niko
“Are we set? Packed and ready to go?" Nikolai asked as he shut the boot. "We're all set,” I replied to him, putting my hands together. Nikolai had come back about thirty minutes ago. The plan was to get to the airport in about twenty minutes then we begin the flight to New York.“Great," he said, entering his car. Amelia and I got in too as we drove off. I hadn't checked my phone for some time now so I pulled it out of my pocket and was shocked at the amount of calls and messages I had. Most of them were from Daniel.Daniel: Sarah, come back!Daniel: You know you haven't formally left the pack. You could be punished for this.Daniel: You took that maid too? She didn't leave the pack either!Daniel: You and that man are breaking all the rules!“Hey, Nikolai, you know Amelia and I haven't formally left the pack, right?" I asked him. Nikolai hummed as he skillfully switched gears.“That's being sorted out. Besides, I'm the Lycan King. All the power is in my hands," Nikolai said, grinni
“How can someone so small be so heavy?" Nikolai complained as he hoisted me on his back and walked out of the plane. I'd woken up some time ago and since I still felt sleepy, Amelia was worried I would fall over and die-even thought that was physically impossible- so she asked Nikolai to carry me.“What's that quote, don't judge a book by its cover? Carry your elephant, hubby,” I told him, patting his back. Nikolai grunted and kept on walking out with me. I closed my eyes as I tried to fall back into my sleep but I was woken by a sharp scream."Nikky!” A female voice squealed. I opened my eyes to see a petite girl beelining towards Nikolai and I. I jumped off his back just in time as she barrelled into him. There was a man beside her that looked like he had a good ten years over Nikolai."Audrey, I've only been gone for about three days," Nikolai grunted as he tried to push the girl away from him. The girl separated from him and pouted.“Well excuse me for missing my favorite person,"
I was currently in the kitchen trying to see if I could make something to eat. Back at the pack, I didn't have the luxury to eat whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted it but seeing as I'm with Nikolai now, I plan to make use of every opportunity I'm presented with.“What are you doing?" Someone said from behind me. I grabbed the knife next to me and turned around to see who it was. It was a man with discoloured eyes and tattoos over his whole chest. He was shirtless and I narrowed my eyes so as to blur out his naked body part."Who are you?” I asked the man dropping the knife next to me but still letting my hand linger on it. He leaned against the kitchen counter and picked up an apple, sinking his teeth deep inside it."You're not scared, are you?” He asked, raising a brow.“Not at all. I doubt this place would be easy to infiltrate so you must be one of his own,” I explained. The man nodded then without warning threw his half eaten apple at me. I dodged just in time and glared at him.
“Okay, now calm down, Nikolai," I said, shifting. Nikolai's smirk only widened as he pushed the plate away.“Now why should I do that?" He asked. I tapped on the table as I tried to figure out a way to divert his attention. “Seeing as it's my first time in New York don't you think you should show me around? I mean, it's been hours since we arrived," I told him, standing up. Nikolai raised a brow.“At this time?" He asked. I scoffed and out my hands on my hips.“If you can come back at this time then I'm sure you can also take me out, Nikolai," I told him. Nikolai smiled and stood up.“Sure, princess," he said. And just when I thought he'd let me go, he added, “But don't think I've forgotten the original plan, Sarah." Then he walked out.My cheeks flushed red and my jaw slacked. Nikolai was already far ahead of me so I quickly gathered myself and followed him out. I took my coat too since it was cold at this time.I walked behind Nikolai to his car and I felt as if someone was watchin
“You need more training." Audrey hissed out. "Look, Sarah, I like you but the thing is if you can't take care of yourself, you wouldn't survive in our world. You'd be wiped off the face of the earth within moments,” she explained as her expression grew softer."I don't even know what your world is about,” I answered her. I can't lie. I felt bad about not being able to help Nikolai better but there was nothing I could do since even I was unprepared."It's not my position to tell you. When Nikolai gets out you can ask him. But if you ever need help, you know where to find me," she said, patting my shoulder. She gave me a warm smile and instantly I felt better. Audrey turned away and left, leaving me with Charlie and Enzo.“I'll go see what the doctor is doing," Charlie said, turning around. I sighed and went to sit down."Don't blame yourself. It was bound to happen,” Enzo said, sitting beside me. I frowned at him.“Blame myself? Why would I? It's all Nikolai's fault for not telling me a
Nikolai said I'd be on car scrub duty for two days. Like seriously? I was annoyed at him for that but it didn't stop him from sending me off with Amelia and Audrey to look for a wedding dress.“You should try this, it'd look great on you," Amelia said, holding a dress up to my body. It was a white body hugging dress with intricate patterns. I scrunched up my nose and shook my head.“White is too basic. I'm the main character, I'll wear something different," I said, eyeing the racks. I pulled my phone from my bag as I dialled Enzo's number. I shifted to a secluded place to make the call.“What's up, babe?" He drawled.“Do you have any idea on what color of suit Nikolai will be wearing?" I asked him. Nikolai didn't bother going suit shopping, his excuse being he had enough suits already."I'm actually buying one for him right now. Haven't decided on a color though. Why?” Enzo asked. My brow shot up and I cleared my throat. I looked around so I could make sure nobody was listening to the
