Accustomed to mind pain.Hong and I freeze in our tracks looking at the angry five lycans baring their teeth to us. Lance’s eyes turn from their hypnotic brown-orange to the hot molten lava red that burn into my head. Axel, Tucker and Mav are just as angry, as they continue to growl at us. I look to Blake who has crossed her arms in front of her chest, dropped her hip and tapping a foot against the ground. “I told you to stay here!” She scolds me. I didn’t realise I was a child that needed to report my whereabouts. “I skipped breakfast waiting and then decided to have lunch. I then needed to pop into town!” I was really taken aback by their attitudes and the anger radiating off them. They all had very strong lycan auras. “Town is shut on a Sunday! Why did you leave?” Axel shouts at me with his hands clenched either side of his legs. “It doesn’t matter!” I respond trying to brush it off. “It clearly does! You left a secure environment during a security breach!” Mav retorts. “I di
Skirting around the facts. I turn off the water from the shower and hear raised voices in the next room, where Blake and I sleep. I don’t have the energy for this right now so I quickly get changed and with my hair still wet, climb out of the bathroom window. I wanted to use one of the computers in the break out room to look at apartments and research possible areas. I don’t plan to drive at any time during my life, so it would need to have good train and bus links so I could still get around. As I placed my feet down on the ground outside I hear a throat being cleared behind me. I turn around just as I close the window to see the Alpha looking at me. “My office now!” He orders at me. Like a naughty school girl I follow him with dripping wet hair, through the courtyard into a building I hadn’t entered before. Through door after door and up a flight of stairs, we finally entered an office which I presume was the Alpha’s. “Take a seat!” The Alpha points to a small brown leather sofa
Cottage pie and some sharing. I quickly grab my bottle of water and busy myself to cool myself down. “Aida?” My name on his lips sends a buzz to my core and I don’t ever want him to stop. “Hhmm?” Is all I can manage. It’s okay though, because it sounds like I’m busy with my dinner. Not at all imagining his tongue vibrating down below. Aida stop it! “The men…” He starts but I cut him off. “They meant no harm, I think they just forgot I was just a she-wolf.” I turn so that he could see my face. “Oh believe me they knew!” He responds with a small growl. “Oh!” “And you aren’t just a she-wolf!” “Says the Lycan who tried to command me earlier.” I raise an eyebrow at him before turning back to finish my dinner. “We came back from a threat to the King, to find you weren’t here and Hong was also gone. I was worried.” He walks closer to me and I can feel his aura closely behind me. “You don’t need to worry about me!” I’m sure he has plenty of she-lycans he can worry about and wrap up
Revenge!I woke up the next day with a new lease on life. Most people would think the morning October sun or the robin sitting on the outside windowsill would give such a lust for the day. But no, not me! I had one thing keeping my blood flowing through my veins with such warmth. Revenge! Revenge on the man who leaked all my private information to get ahead. Today was going to be a fun day. I was up and dressed, ready for breakfast before they had even fired up the ovens. It was Monday morning and the first full week of training since arriving here. I made small chit chat at breakfast but nothing was going to take me out of my focus. Pure and utter annihilation at training. He may be an Alpha’s son, but I was trained by one of the best warriors known to werewolf kind and he never took it easy on me. Today was going to be a good day! The courtyard was filled with training mats, weights, ropes, tyres, barrels and, yes, throwing knives! Interestingly Lance entered the courtyard from th
Wolf vs wolf “Aida!” Lance tries to snap me out of my sadistic mood but my wolf is dancing around in my head and she will get what I promised her. Revenge! Hong releases me but doesn’t move away from me. “You two, here!” The Alpha clicks his fingers at us. He was clearly irritated with our werewolf ways but he can’t change centuries of rituals in one afternoon. I’m not really sure what is happening around me. I don’t notice the other trainees sparring, all I see is Hong, all I want is Hong. He charges at me and I have to act fast. I let him catch me and throw me to the ground because as I roll him I manage to end up on top. I punch him in the jaw with quite a lot of force and his head whips from the impact. He pushes me off him in my chest, which throws me back and winds me for a second. He jumps back up rubbing his jaw that is already starting to show signs of bruising. For the next twenty minutes we continue to punch, push, elbow jab, kick and growl. I’m bruised, I’m bleeding,
Movie night “Report to me at my office 7am sharp!” Alpha orders at me before leaving, following Lance out the door. Doctor Wessex takes a step forward and clears his throat, because the room has turned extremely quiet. “Aida, is it okay if I check you over?” He asks. “Erm sure!” I respond looking at Blake for help. I didn’t want to lift my T-shirt again in front of the men. “Use the bedroom Doctor, Aida will feel more at ease with some privacy.” I felt like a child! I can’t believe she worded it like that.I follow Doctor Wessex to Lance’s bedroom and close the door behind me. It is a tidy bedroom with grey linen on the bed, a grey carpet, a dark walnut wood bed frame and matching furniture. It was minimalistic which led me to believe that this wasn’t actually Lance’s home. Just a place to stay when training or maybe his hook up place. My wolf growls at me for making such a suggestion. “Take a seat Aida!” Doctor Wessex gestures for me to sit on the end of the bed. The bed has a
Flashing Lights The way that Mav, Tucker, Axel and Blake were around Lance last night confirmed my suspicions that he was a Head Trainer, if not part of the close warrior team sworn in to directly protect the King and Royal family. Most of my intel is gained from when people think I am asleep! It was 6.30am and I had slept quite well considering my upcoming jail time in thirty minutes. Lance must have slept on the couch as the bed was cold on the side I hadn’t slept on. I hear a faint knock on the apartment door and hear Lance’s foot steps on the floor of his apartment. I very carefully walk over to his bedroom door and slightly open it ajar to find out who is visiting him so early in the morning. “Yes?” He grunts as he opens the door. “Sir, we are here for Aida Sagar! Orders from the Alpha!” I hear a male voice. The Alpha had the nerve of questioning my honour, of questioning whether I would attend my own punishment! Irritated by the insult on my character, I storm out of the b
The tidy up. I manage to move myself back under the table. I’d rather the world melted me away at this moment. I’m assuming the ransom girl was me, why did the rogue want me and who would they think would pay the ransom. My brother certainly wouldn’t, and if I paid the ransom myself, I’d have no money to buy my own place to escape to. They must have heard a pack princess was here, which meant someone from inside was leaking information to the rebels. The cell door unlocks with a thud and is slowly pushed open. Five pair of shoes, Blake unbelievably wearing heels even in battle, walk into the cell. “Aida?” Axel calls my name in a hushed tone. “Check the bathroom!” Lance orders. “I’m here!” I bleakly respond from under the table. All heads whip around and all eyes focus on me under the table. They all tilt their heads to the side, in that sympathetic look which grates on me every time. Lance takes a step towards me and crouches down to match my height level on the floor. “Are you h
