Artemis PovWalking out of the room, I felt a pang in my chest as I left her. My wolf didn’t want to leave her, hell! We didn’t want to leave her. To hold her close to me all day was what I yearned for but I was getting too attached. This wasn’t good for me. I had to retract a little while.My beta stood outside. He bowed when he saw me. “Alpha…”Neither he nor I got the chance to say what the order had in mind before we heard a shrieking voice. There was a knowing fear that settled at the depth of my mind. It shouldn’t be who I think it—-I didn't get to complete my wish when she came dashing out from her usual red outfit. Her heel clicking on the tiles with every step she took.“Loretta,” I called, “how many time have I t—““Oh Artemis,” she sang, “I’ve missed you,” she threw her arms over my neck in a swift motion before she completed her words and it was at that instant that Freya opened the door.It seemed as though the moon goddess was out to get me, to make me pay for all my si
Freya’s pov The audacity of this vulture to address me as a bitch. I once again paid no attention to her. I just chewed on my food as I took a mouthful.“Let’s make one thing straight here, I’m his main bitch. We’ve been together for a long time, longer than you could possibly imagine so you’ll bitches can go fuck yourselves. He’s mine,” and that was the moment I reacted.I scoffed, his main bitch? I chuckled, not even in a million years could she. With her absurd need to fix red everywhere like Cheryl.Rolling my eyes I stood up not quite feeling hungry anymore. This sly had taken my appetite when she graced us with her reeking presence. It was like she arrived and my appetite was gone.“You need to eat Freya,” said Racheal. I smiled at her, I could always do that later.While my face was clear of emotions, my mind was a whirlwind of emotions. One that distressed me and had somehow snaked pain through my head.Artemis did not come back to me. He didn’t run after me. To hold me and e
Artemis Pov Iris immediately called an urgent meeting when we arrived at the company. The security and technical team were present. We had to catch our culprit. The lowlife spreading lies about our company and shit.They were all seated when we walked into the meeting room. Laptops could be seen sitting up in front of them as they worked.The room was a transparent white. Painted and decorated wholly with white. A rectangular glass table was posited at what could be seen as the center of the room.The room was noise proof. Every person was busy. Catching this culprit was at the top of the pyramid.Over the last years lies had swelled around the company. Lies that reduced our income and revenue. The lies and slander had cost us potential customers and clients and had put on line the hope of us having investors and partners.They were all little, good for nothing cowardly companies and we didn’t beg. They were too much of a coward to partner with us. According to them they said, ‘our c
Disclaimer: matured scene ahead.Artemis Pov ‘You know what!’A vision flashed before me what could possibly be my life should I follow through with that thought. Should I ponder and hesitate or reconsider my actions. My life based on that decision was already mapped out. It was spelt out and foretold and anyone could guess the ending.If I were to follow Freya’s voice in my head, I would be at the lowest apex in the feeding chain. I’ll be the lowest of all organisms. A laughing stock and would've been ridiculed upon. No!‘Fuck it, fuck her feelings. Besides she wouldn’t know,’My wolf was particularly quiet. I could tell that he would do anything in his power to gain his mates trust and love to make her happy. Yet he still was an alpha and he had a duty to his pack and his people. We were alpha and would always demand respect, failure to do so and you would wake up six feet under ground. I and Aegus were particularly competitive and we were set out to win every single time.The mee
Freya’s Pov The note was wrapped in between my clothes. As I unfolded it, a white note fell out. Picking it up and unwrapping it my body went cold from fear.The words engulfed me in total fear. “First of all let’s go to the library. There’s no waterfall pack without a waterfall library!” She squealed. I could literally see the joy emitting from her. Sonia was quiet and meek, more of the introvert type but Racheal? Rachael's energy rubbed off on me.It was like her hyper self somehow was alarming and triggering at first. But over time staying with her anyone would get comfortable as there was no dull moment or depressing time with her. She was a vibe and her cheer easily rubbed off on anyone who came in contact with her.In a few days spending time with Racheal had made me more of an open person. She was a pull and very hard to resist.She pulled my arms along as she hopped dragging me along with her. Just as we were about to go up the main door opened to Artemis.He looked frustrat
Artemis Pov I couldn’t leave her but if I stayed any longer it would not say well of me.This gave even more reason why I wanted to kill that Ajax. He was surely going to pay. For the first time since I met Freya, she reached out for me. Her hand held me by my arm. She didn’t mutter no words but anyone could tell what was in her mind. Anyone could see the pleading look she sent to me. They were visible and there was no denying it.Holding her in my embrace I did not want to leave her, not alone, not away from me. I could not stand the idea of taking a single step away from her.As I hugged her, getting soaked in her smell my hand found the small of her back and rocked her slowly.“Alpha. Aj——“ for Oslo to persist, I knew it was something important. He wouldn’t come for no reason.That was all it took. “I’ll be right with you,” when I said those words to Oslo, my gamma, I felt the room grow quiet. It appeared as though a thick fog had suddenly appeared. The atmosphere was thick and he
Freya’s Pov I wish I could say I was at peace when I woke up on his chest. I wish I could say I had one of those best sleep where you don’t want to wake up, that I was not scared, that I didn’t have a million thought laying next to him. That I didn’t go to sleep drowned in thoughts.I also wished I could say that I didn’t enjoy it. His body against mine, the fog of peace that surrounded my head even in thoughts, his hand over my back holding me close to him. I wish I could deny that all of that didn’t set my body in peace but they did, way beyond my control.Tracing aimless circles on his chest I thought how I had lost every atom of hope of him returning to me. I remembered vividly well how my heart missed a beat when the door creaked open to his figure as he stood in sight holding apologetic look. It broke me to stupor. I couldn’t be mad. The little faint of anger saw themselves through the door when it came open by him.And when he said, ‘I said you should wait for me,’ that melted
Freya’s Pov But then the storm will come anyway. I was having breakfast with Artemis in the dining hall. He was very chatty and I enjoyed it.“So what’s your favorite colour?” He asked. I laughed at his question, “you can’t be serious?” I asked in disbelief.“Come on I am, tell me your favorite colour and reason,” oh boy he was serious.Okay, I tried to surpress the laughter and offer him an answer.I thought back to it, now that I did, I realized that I in fact didn’t have a favorite something. I think it was as a result of growing up in the Eastwood pack. Back then I didn’t have much of a choice so I just sucked up to whatever I was offered.Rubbing my chin I thought on the colour that was most appealing to me. After much thought I concluded that I didn’t have a favorite colour but I knew the colours that I would alway go for should I be offered the chance to choose.“I know this might be weird but I don’t have a favorite colour.”“You don’t?” He asked surprised.“I mean there are
