Throughout the night I tossed and turned, eventually needing to take some serious sleeping pills. They knocked me out for a few hours but I still slept restless without my mate. Once I realised I wasn't getting back to sleep I showered, got dressed and went to my office to do some alpha shit such as paperwork, patrols, finance etc. My focus being solely on the stack of paperwork in front of me I growl when there's a nock on the door, nearly five hours later."Come in" I growl grunting slightly with annoyance, however it soon disappears when I smell who it is. A growl forces its way out of my mouth and echoes around the room. Instantly I'm in front of her wrapping my arms tightly around her waist. Burying my head into her hair between the crook of her neck and shoulder and breathing in mouthfuls of her delicious scent."I've missed you" I murmur to her not caring if anybody hears me, she's my mate and my only slight soft spot."I've only been gone a day" she replies amused and cuddle
Before I knew it hours turned into days, before either of us realised it had been almost two weeks. We didn't even look at each other when we did end up in the same, if he didn't leave then I did. The pack started having arguments and eventually they started turning against each other. Steels beta is hardly ever here, everyone avoids us both like the plague not knowing if we're stable. Hell even the cooks and maids manage to avoid us! Steel buries himself in pack work and when he's not doing that he trains, at least he's letting out his anger. I wasn't angry at him at first but when he acted as if he didn't even know I existed I turned my hurt into anger. When he blocked his bond to me and left a maid to show me me to my new room I became my old self. The self that the hunters thrived from, the self I never wanted to be. He kicked me from our room and I know that at this point our bond clearly wasn't as strong as I thought, it didn't even take an argument to destroy us. Just my
"What are you doing?" I groan with annoyance, barely awake and already wanting to hit someone. Once again something moves on my stomach and I shift my sleeping position growling softly.Still not feeling comfortable I finally open my eyes, looking around frowning. Angel lays beside me furrowing his eyebrows looking deeply concentrated."What's wrong?" I ask softly, does he hate me? I've treated him and everyone around me like dirt for the past week. Does he regret last night?He turns his head towards me "I have to go somewhere, I'll be back soon to make you breakfast" he rushes after listening for a few minutes."Oh..ok" I reply looking down, feeling as if he's rushed to get away from me because I'm no good for him. Pulling the sheets closer to my body I hold them tightly, he quickly gets in the shower and normally I'd join him but something seems..off?He rushes to get dressed and soon enough he leaves the house, to go do whatever.Sighing quietly I ignore my aching heart knowing I
Entering the pack house I notice everyone already in bed, so quietly I make my way to mine and Angel's bedroom. Opening the door I walk inside and close it behind me gently.He's not here.I ignore the burning in my chest and slide my clothes off, pulling on some of my own pajamas instead of Angel's like I normally do.Brushing my teeth and hair I then climb into my side of the bed, laying on the edge and pulling the covers over myself.It didn't feel right without him here. It felt empty. I felt lost. I feel useless.As the word repeats itself inside my head I feel tears slide down my face, I let them fall. I don't bother to wipe them or make any sound of movement as I cry silently.After a while a headache forms and I close my eyes, wanting darkness to consume me and make me sleep.***The door opens quietly but I pretend to be asleep, not wanting to face him. His footsteps pause for a second and I feel his eyes on me, I ignore him.He takes off his clothes and walks around his sid
Kicking open my front door I enter the house, heading up the stairs and into my old bedroom. Grabbing a bag I fill it with pictures that I never got to get before. Pictures of me and my brother as kids, when we were pretty much normal aside from the screwed up parents. Once I have the few personal items in a bag I head down my steps, and out of the house. Nothing had changed here in the months that I'd been gone. But then again I didn't expect it to."Dakota? Is that you?" An empty voice asks and I groan, spinning around."Stacy dont sta- what the hell happened to you?" I ask taking in her appearance. She looked stronger, with a vibe of darkness surrounding her.She's a hunter."After you left a man came, he offered me something I couldn't refuse. We've been waiting for you to come back from your pack of mutts" she sneers and I arch an eyebrow."We?" I reply with a bored voice, she grins darkly. My vampire senses detect someone behind me.Looking into the reflection of her eyes I see
'Its done' her silk voice filters through my mind.'How long will it take?' I ask removing my hand slowly from inside her womb, blood pouring out everywhere.'As long as the baby needs' she replies softly.My body is pushed aside, hands grab me from every direction. Fury runs through my veins, glaring at the werewolves I shove them off using my inhuman strength.In a flash in standing up glaring darkly at angel, his give away his emotions but his face remains hard."Get away from her!" He snarls at his pack as they advance on me, instantly they back off. I could see the pain in his eyes, i killed the one thing we couldn't have. That makes me heartless."Why?" He asks in his alpha voice, one that normally would send pleasure through me. But knowing I'd caused him pain only made me angry.I remain silent, a doctor kneels down by the open womb and starts to check on the baby.The pack look at me like I'm a monster. I know what I am, I've accepted it. And so should they."She killed a wo
The soft cry of the newborn filled the silent forest around us, I ignored the sound and focused on my surroundings. I could smell rotting flesh, dried blood as well as fresh, mixed in with the smell I knew to be angels father.I was close.Really close."Its been a long time stelah" a malicious laugh sounds and I continue walking already knowing that I was being circled. I've known for the past twenty minutes that they've been watching, but I gave nothing away."Ridicuz sent me a message, I'm here to send him one back" I reply laughing coldly, my voice distant and filled with ice."You made your choice. I smell those filthy mongrels all over you" he hisses long past furious."What can I say? They're good in bed, you should try it some time" I reply."I mean if you like it rough then a wolf girl would be perfect for you, they're wild" I smirk darkly, he grinds his teeth with revolt and anger."Stelah!" A deep voice echoes sending twisted fury through me, turning to face the animal I ra
Hours passed by. The only sound being flesh on flesh, or skin tearing as weapons were used.I was sweating slightly but I wasn't using stelahs strength or the demons strength, I was simply me. And my brother had no idea.Angel was coming. He severed the bond to let me know he was on his way, but he also did it because this way if one of us gets hurt the other won't feel it.He's no longer my weakness, not physically anyway. However if he gets hurt I will slaughter him myself for allowing it to happen.I didn't underestimate angel, I just had to make it seem like I had no faith in him and that would push him to his limits. My plan worked and now we should both survive, I knew he wouldn't sit back at home whilst I went to war.This was the plan all along.And angel had no idea yet he went along with it. Severing the bond will also help for him to find our location, his anger and pain will automatically lead him to me. The moon is watching us, she helps to guide him to me without actual
