Chapter 17
Hayden’s pov I had been sitting here for more than an hour, after my conversation with Alpha Fenrir that had turned sour he left. The air changed after he left, my anger was replaced with my unsatisfying hunger for Doxy.It was definitely unsatisfying. I do not think I would ever be satisfied with her body. It had been long since I had gone crazy for a girl this way. Since I had met my mate and even when I met my mate I was able to control it.I could not control how I felt for Doxy. It was unexplainable. Even my wolf was attracted to her.She was supposed to be here by now, it has been hours since our dance. I sipped on my wine, trying to control my raging wolf.If I had given my will a chance then he would have been searching frantically for her but I was not going to do that.I was still an Alpha, the commander of death. No woman would make me go crazy to such an extent.I just had to wait for her.Priestess Elena crawled out of the river as she lay tiredly with her legs still in the river, she shut her eyes before opening it again as she glanced around, she tried to figure out where she was but the place was completely unfamiliar.She glanced around once more noticing the tall trees and bushes surrounding where she was it was certainly a place she had never been, it was an abandoned part. All she could find was trees with rivers surrounding them, the wind blew the trees gently and the birds chirped as they flew from one tree to the other.It was very far from the town and rarely would one friend someone around there, it was abandoned and not visited by most members of the pack."Arrgh," Priestess Elena winced as she crawled out of the river, she lay beside the river breathing heavily as she stared at the sun, muttering a few words as she shut her eyes again before turning, she tried to stand but she fell back heavily.She inhaled the scent around her as she shut her and opened
Nova's POV"Gorgeous," Hayden muttered as he walked to the room admiring me as I had my back against him watching him through the mirror.The maids bowed as they stepped out excusing us as he walked closer to me. He wrapped his hands around my waist as he rested his chin on my shoulder and I placed my head on his with my hands on his hand which was on my stomach.He raised his head from my shoulder as he made me face him, he ran his eyes over my face as I stared at his eyes. He cupped my face in his hands as he smiled."What's wrong?" I asked."I'm impressed," He muttered and I raised my brow."About what?" I asked."Hmmm, about a lot of things," He said while I remained staring at him. "Everything about you," He said and I smiled."What are those things?'" I asked curiously and smirked."Are you that curious?" He asked and I widened my smile.Who wouldn't be curious? I was damn curious."Why won't I be?" I asked with a raised brow. "Do you expect me not to?" I added.He looked away f
Nova's POVThe sun peeked through the window and I walked to the other side not wanting to stand, I needed more sleep. I felt a hand wrapped around my waist I moved closer to him still having my eyes shut, I perceived his sandalwood sent and my wolf yip at the strong and intense scent.I smiled secretly as he patted my back."Are you awake?" Hayden asked and I remained silent breathing in his sweet scent. "Are you still asleep?" He asked and I nodded, he chuckled as he patted me."I want to remain this way," I answered and he laughed before he leaned over to kiss my forehead before disengaging from the hug as he got down from the bed."Are you leaving already?" I asked opening my eyes as I watched him walk to the bathtub on the other side of the room."Hmm, I have to prepare for the festival," He said as he loosened the robe on his cloak and I sighed heavily, he turned to me staring at me worriedly. "What's wrong?" He asked and I shook my head as I got down from the bed walking to my
Hayden's POVI groaned opening my eyes to find myself still in the room, it was dark but I recognized the room the way it was at noon. I stood from the mat and I glanced around the room, I noticed no one's presence as I stepped out of the room, it was dark outside but there were lanterns hung through the hallway. The breeze blew slowly and I walked enjoying the fresh flow as I headed to the balcony, I stopped at the end of the hallway noticing a woman standing on the balcony.I would have turned to leave hug but I needed time for myself and the balcony was the perfect place for me, also I wasn't the one who was meant to leave, whoever was standing there was meant to leave once I got there. I approached her but I stopped abruptly perceiving the lemons and roses scent driving me mad with hunger. That was Nova, she was close."Nova," I called, and she turned. It was Nova indeed.She stood there staring at me as I also stared at her confused and excited at the time, I wondered if that w
Hayden's POVI sighed heavily as I opened my eyes, the sun shone directly on me and I frowned my face tuning from the position I was in.I flicked my eyes wearily rummaging through the room as I tried to recall where I was, I stared at the wooden roof which was covered with cobwebs, it was dusty like it hadn't been cleaned for years. I rolled my eyes as I looked to my left noticing a shelf with different medical patches, the room was filled with a lot of medical equipment, and I watched as different tools were hung on an old worn-out hanger. I shut my eyes as I tried to recall what happened after Nova and I were in the storeroom she took me to, she was with me crying and holding my hands till I lost consciousness, then what happened after? I couldn't remember how we left the storeroom and how I ended up in such a room. I was completely clueless and I needed a clear explanation of it all because the room didn't look anyway familiar."Ahh," I groaned as opened my eyes again looking to
Nova's POVI didn't want that to stop.I pulled him closer wanting to enjoy that moment with him, I didn't want that moment to end anytime soon, I leaned over to him but he stopped suddenly pulling away.I opened my eyes slowly to see him still having his eyes shut, I smiled before I noticed him falling backward. My eyes widened in shock as I held him but he had more weight and we both fell to the ground with me on him "Hayden," I called, tapping him. I waited to hear his response but none came as he remained that way, still. I pulled away from him before kneeling beside him, I tapped him again. "Hayden," I called again but nothing came still.My fear doubled as I hit him hard but he wasn't moving.No way, it couldn't be what I was thinking. I tried sniffing his scent and I couldn't smell him dead but he wasn't moving. Hayden wasn't moving."Hayden," I called again. "I don't want this, I don't want you to leave me this way, please stay with me,"That was a cruel fate and I couldn't a
