We’ve been upstairs dealing with the heat since 3 this morning. We missed breakfast and lunch. And with all the activity, I’m starving. But I have no more energy left. Nothing. The heat’s settled down enough for us to come downstairs and eat something before going back upstairs to either sleep of fuck.
Aidan comes back in to rummage through the kitchen to make us something. The omegas don’t like when pack members cook in the kitchen but if Aidan can’t find an omega to make me food, he’ll make me food. Like he always says, ‘you can have whatever you want.’ And if I want something to eat, he’ll make me something to eat.
I wake up to an empty, cold bed with a not on the bedside table.‘I’m sorry but I have to go to training and sort out other pack stuffSee you laterI love you’His sloppy handwriting puts a smile on my face. His clock glows in the dark room. 10:00. He should be done training and in his office.I pull on one of his button downs he left lying around and pad down to his office.To my surprise. His office has no one in it but is far from empty. It’s filled with all my presents!I sit on the floor and start opening them. Most of them are things Aidan and I would only use in a house of our own.‘Maybe we should have a house of our own.’ Elisa says curiously.‘We just moved into the pack house.’ I quip back.‘Well now that you might be pregers we’ll need a house to raise the pups. You don’t expect th
AidanI cannot take it anymore. Sitting in Physics and my mind keeps racing. No matter how much I try to pay attention to Mrs Kingsley and her speech on intermolecular forces, I just can't do it. My mind keeps fixating on the biggest problem in my life… will my dad walk away from his illness in this life or the next? "Dude are you okay?" Jared leans over to check in, Maybe it's because I’m radiating stress or maybe it's because I’m tapping foot and seesawing my pen like crazy. "Ja, I'm fine." I reply with out tearing my eyes from the clock. 40 more minutes. 40 minutes. Just 40 more… I soot my hand up. "Mrs Kingsley can I please go get some fresh air."Mrs Kingsley turns from the board and looks at me with understanding."Sure hun. Take all the time you need." I grabs my bag, run out of the classroom, down the empty hall and burst out of the doors leading to the front steps. Without thinking I dig in my bag and grab t
Danika"Danika! Pay attention!" Mr Saunders shouts while I'm staring out the Maths classroom window. "Maybe if you paid attention your marks would be better." He scolds me with a smug look on his face. I hate this man. He just grates my tits. The whole class starts whispering and getting ready for a brawl. "Better than my 93% year average, Mr Saunders?" He ask sarcastically. Everyone is oooing at that. "Miss Giovanni, I will not tolerate back talk in my class! I think you should go and cool off outside for a while, think about why what you did was wrong." He stares me down and opens the door. I gladly pick up my stuff and walk out. "Maybe in that time you will have thought about why your answer on the board was wrong? It's 3 not 79. Brackets first." I say sweetly before walking out the door. Mr Saunders slams the door shut and it hits me on my backside. If only we could have another maths teacher but in such a small town there aren't many options f
"Trynna Escape the world too?" Such an arbitrary thing to say and yet it just tumbled out of my mouth. His chocolate brown eyes latch onto mine and he refuses to let go. It’s almost as if he’s searching for something in my eyes. Then just as suddenly as he latched on, he looks away. He takes a deep breath and runs his hand though his hair while raising the bottle in defeat. "Something like that. And you?" He doesn’t look me in the eye as he speaks. "Something like that." I repeat. "However, I find it best not too run to the bottom of a bottle." This is not my place, let it go! But he’s the one to keep it going this time. "And I find it best not to chain myself to someone else's world." He retorts. "Fair enough." I say and carry on with my reading, twirling my pencil in my fingers until I need it. I thought that would be the end of this strange encounter but Aidan had other plans. He stared down at my book.
"Hey Deej! Wait up." Addilyn runs down the hall and tackles me in a hug. "Hey Addy." I squeeze her back. Addilyn is my girl bestfriend. We've been friends since the beginning of high school. She befriended me the moment I set foot on campus and, well, the rest is history. She laces her arm through mine as we walk to chemistry together. "There's a rumour going round that Mr Saunders kicked you out of maths class and you went to the gardens to fuck Aidan Gabriels." She says in a sly voice. I can't help the laugh that escapes my lips. "HA! Who on earth told you that?" But before she can answer, the rest of the group emerges from wherever they were and join us in our walk to Chemistry."Deej, someone said you fucked Aidan Gabriels, is it true." Dominic asked. "You fucked him? I heard it was just over the clothes stuff." Ben piped up."Leave the poor girl alone. She can do what she wants with wh
Aidan I sit patiently in the library for the girl from the gardens and hope she arrives. I have no idea what happened back there. What she read, it touched me. It was like no drug I have ever had and I want more. There was something about her too. She was mysterious and cunning but not in a bad way. The kind of person I didn't feel weird crying in front of. Why did I cry? That's not like me. I keep glancing from the door to the clock, hoping and praying she'll come. I catch her sweet voice laughing in the corridor. As she rounds the corner her head is tipped back and her gorgeous lips parted in a huge smile as she laughs. She waves goodbye to whoever she's talking too and enters the room. Even in this light she is stunning. Her golden tanned skin glows in the dingy library lights. Her light brown hair with sun kissed streaks and one pink strip is pulled into a braid and I want nothing more than to just know her name. I lock onto her navy blue eyes.
We sat for 2 hours in the library just talking about books and music and the world before Mrs Watson's soft voice went through the intercom to tell us the library was closing. "Thank you." Aidan says while we walk out with his ‘to read’ pile. "It was fun." I say as we walk down the dead halls to the parking. "Thanks for the fun afternoon. Enjoy your evening." I say politely as I begin the short walk home. Aidan grabs my arm and spins me around. "Would you like to go on a date sometime?" He asks… nervously? Is Aiden Gabriels nervous to ask me on a date? Me? A no one rouge? No, I do not want to go on a date with the biggest man whore in the school. I just shake my head at him with an amused look on my face. "Thanks but no." I pull out of his grip and walk towards the gate leaving a stunned Alphas son behind me. It doesn't take him long to shake the shock off and catch up to me."What? Why not? We
'It never fades away, it's staying Your kiss like broken glass on my skinAnd all the greatest loves end in violenceIt's tearing up my voice, left in silence'A knock at the door interrupts my slow dance with my dad. He twirls me and sends me giggling to the door. There's another hard knock. "I'm coming, I'm coming. Keep your knickers on." I shout and open the door. My gigglely state is replaced by shock. "Aidan? What are you doing here?" "Danika Giovanni." He says. "Who's at the door, hun?" My dad shouts. Aidan looks past me and into the house. A growl escaping his lips. What was that? "Just a friend from school dad." I say and pull the door closed behind me. I pull Aidan back down the driveway and back to his car. "Why are you here Aidan? How do you know where I live?" I cross my arms over my chest against the cold. He steps so close to me. "Because, Danika Giovanni, you owe m
