Ariezel's POVThere was not going to be any more pestering, I had made sure of that.In the confines of my room, I looked up to the ceiling.I should have been happy about this.Why wasn't I happy?…I went to work as normal, but during the lunch period nobody came in.I glanced at the door a few times before giving in. A tendril of disappointment filled me which I quickly curbed. I couldn't be disappointed.I had chosen this afterall.The only sign that remained if his changes was the fact that I still worked with Ambrose and the meals they served me in the cafeteria.For the past several days I had barely seen him as usual. Aside from the moments in the cafeteria where he ate, there was not a trace of him. The living scene I used to see with him and Serena was gone, and for some reason the lack filled me with a mix of joy and guilt at the same time.I should have been happy.Why wasn't I happy?On the weekend of my next check-up, I went to the hospital alone, tracing the way with so

Asher's POV The hallways were almost never empty.Save for events such as pack meetings where the pack spent time outside the pack house than inside, there was almost never a time when there wasn't anybody in the vicinity. Everyday, at least one person would arrive at a corner, suddenly bowing at the sight of me. One other would be conversing with a group of people laughing until they stilled at noticing my presence.There were so many other scenarios I could have brought, but all of them were the same result.I was never truly alone yet I remained lonely.It wasn't new to me. Even though I still had a fiancee, and was the leader of a pack of many, I never felt fully belonging.Yet now, I felt it more than ever, and it was all because of one woman with infuriatingly red hair and a pair of sky blue eyes.“I was scared”The recent memory of one of the real 'interactions' I had with her still stood in my mind.As she spoke of how my actions affected her, why she thought I did what I di

Ariezel's POVThere was always a sense of anticipation during the dawn.It began with the still sense of darkness, difficult to see in without the presence of the moon and stars that had long escaped from sight. Slowly the world lightened, darkness rising into incandescent hues making the whole world seem all the more coolerThen slowly but surely, a single ray of the sun broke the sky, the starting point for overwhelming brightness that would soon touch the sky.My life at this moment was like that. After days of darkness and pain, the ray of happiness had finally come through in my life.The day at the garden was the turning point for our interactions.I resisted letting the cracks grow any further af first. Since my childhood, it has been difficult for me to interact with others, usually ending up being shut out. Then my only solace was Derek, who was the only person I spoke and laughed freely with.And then our parents died. Derek changed, and I was permanently shut out.Asher's a

Asher's POV“Asher…”I rested against her, kissing her soft skin. “Asher please.” she cried again, her voice the sweetest melody.“Asher…”“Asher…”Savoring the feeling of her soft skin against my lips, I finally let go of all my inhibitions, looking up at the mysterious woman.Waved flames draped over her figure, the strands glowing against the lights. She was an angel, and I could see it already.As I looked higher up, my heart stopped.Because as I looked at those cerulean eyes, the small fairy-like face and those wonderful, wonderful lips, and the once mysterious voice, it all came together.It was Isabella.“Asher…”I woke up to a dark empty room “Fuck." I cursed, heaving from the too fresh dream I had, ones which had plagued me for the past months now.It all began from the day I saw her in the hallway.I remembered the instant panic, worry and felt when I saw her lying in the hallway. If the sight of bruises was enough to send me into rage, the stream of blood, no matter how

Asher's POVWe sat mostly in silence, savoring the peaceful garden when she spoke up.“Why does your pack fear you so much?”Her question halted all my thoughts and u turned, fear crawling up my throat.“You don't have to answer, but…I just wanted to know. Everyone speaksThe fear left, and was replaced by something so bright. Wonder was too small a word.It was the fact that she cared well enough to listen, ignoring the rumors she had been fed to come to me, free of judgment. It was the fact that above all, she had somehow managed to reach into my desire without knowing. It was all that pushed me to speak.“My parents were killed by another pack.”I felt her breath hitch but continued.“It was the most devastating thing I had ever felt. Then I was only 20, feeling far too young to take on the burden of grief as well as handling my pack. I wanted to grieve, but the pack was also grieving, so I forced myself to be strong then. The only person by my side was… ” my breath hitched a the

AriezelI woke up to a cold room. Goosebumps trailed my frame as I laid against the bed. When did such a harsh wind come in the middle of the night?Leaving my eyes closed to savor sleep, my hands searched for any signs of a duvet. Its search was fruitless.Confusion yawned through in its absence. I was just laying under its warmth hours ago. Where had it gone?I open open, sitting up to look for the duvet, only to freeze.Absent of any blanket, the bed stretched for miles, like an awning road. It could have been scarier, if not for the room I was in.I was back in my former pack. Derek's pack.This was a dream, I was sure of it from the many times I had seen his face only to wake up with tears. They had dissipated to nothing beforehand. I fought myself trying to wake up yet no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get out of it.The familiar creak of the door was like ice pouring through my veins. I turned in alarm to see the familiar red glow of an Alpha's eyes filled with rage.“Isa

AsherFor the first time, I understood what I was missing.It was all scattered before, like pieces of a puzzle. The jealousy I felt, tha anger towards the people that hurt her, the need for her to be healthy.At first it was simple, placing the picture together. I chose the easy option, panning it towards my attempt at our wolves coming together.But it was more than that, had probably been from the beginning since I saw the relief in her eyes in that cell.She laughed heartily, and I swore it was the greatest music I heard. Her voice was like a n invisible pair of hands, piercing every feeling I had until it was complete.Somehow in the fast pace of life, I was falling in love with her. I had never felt this way before. Ever since my parents death I had closed myself to all forms of affection, focusing solely on my duties.The sensations were too big to deny, too rich to ignore and so, so wonderful.“Asher?”I was brought back into reality, staring at her bright blue eyes.

Ariezel“Over here!” Harriet called out, pointing to a small stall.With Alys beside me, I moved towards Harriet.Harriet had quickly gotten acquainted with me. She had never spoken about my quiet nature. Instead she let herself fill the silence. I was content to keep silent and listen. Alys' friendship came much slower. It seemed that while not working with her she acted much more relaxed. When I was free they decided to bring it upon themselves to show me around, leading me to the marketplace. It didn't take long for Harriet to wander.“Alys, Ariezel, isn't this so nice?” Harriet stared in awe at the pieces of jewelry hanging on the stall, complimenting the pack member behind it.I looked to see Alys roll her eyes, dragging Harriet away from the stand. “Why don't you worry about finding dye first? Your roots are showing.” she saidAlys was right. I looked at the top of Harriet's hair, the pink fading into what was her real hair color, a strawberry blonde.Harriet shrugged “I'm th
