LOGINI thought I’d be led back to the pack house after speaking with Dominic and confessing my feelings, it was a place I’d stayed since my very first night here. But instead, I’m led to the edge of the pack house and down a long driveway towards Dominic’s private residence. He explained such a thing should have happened the moment he found me, but with the fact I didn’t know his kind existed and what we were, he didn’t want to overwhelm me and thought staying in the pack house would allow me to understand his world more. After the whole poison incident, he said there was much more at stake now that I was marked and I would no longer spend a single night away from him. Before I could comment, the biggest mansion I’d ever seen in all of my life stood before me at the very end of the driveway. Due to the late night, I couldn’t see much surrounding the building, only what the bright lights that hung from the wall or sat in the greenest grass facing the building allowed. If I thought the
Once the crowd had dispersed now the deed had been done and Scarlett was dead, all of the children who sat around me holding each other, slowly began to go back to their families. Each sending me bright smiles and waves, I had shielded them from the pain, death and suffering Scarlett went through, but that didn’t mean I had that opportunity. Waving to the last child as she ran away to her father, I bring my knees up to my chest with my head in the centre of them, the sadness and pain I felt hearing Scarlett die right in front of me but a pain I had to hide in order not to scare those children finally, broke from its cage. Tears rolled down my cheeks the longer I thought about Scarlett, yes, we ended up hating each other and all that she’d done with Dean and now poisoning my water, I believe my feelings were more than justified. But that didn’t stop the memories I held from when we were younger still spinning around my brain, when we’d have sleepovers and midnight feasts, or when we’
The next few hours seemed to blur past, after I almost fainted on the stage in front of everybody, Dominic took me back to his office for me to get as much rest as I could. He said he’d much rather I stayed home while the execution took place but due to the rules of the pack when it was founded many of hundreds of years ago, each and every person residing within the borders needs to be present. Speaking of the execution, I asked Dominic if he was sure he was doing the right thing and asked if killing Scarlett was really the way to handle it, but he was quick to explain how now it had gone to a pack vote and the decision had been made, they could not go against it… the pack had decided. With this in mind, I couldn’t shake the fear and deep guilt I felt as I’m led back out to the front of the pack house, the temperature even colder than it was some hours ago, thick puddles of ice littered the floor due to the temperature and any breath you would take, an icy blast of freezing vapour w
Laying me down on the wooden platform, Dominic lingered by my face calling my name repeatedly while the crowd behind him seemed to gasp out of worry or growl out of anger. Even though I could hear him and my surroundings, my mind spun so fast I had to close my eyes hoping more of that projectile sick didn’t climb up my throat and give everyone a real show of what I went through this morning. “Get the Luna some water!” The doctor’s voice from before shouts as he too joins me as I lay hoping the feeling would pass, his hand taking mine and holding my wrist as though he was checking my pulse. “What I believe to be happening Alpha, is the medicine I have prescribed the Luna to dilute the poison within her body is doing that very thing. But while diluting the poison, due to how deadly the poison is and how much was used, she will continue to feel some affects as it works its way out.” The doctor explained as the dizziness seems to subside slightly and I’m able to open my eyes, which in
Before long, I was led outside of Dominic’s warm office and out into the freezing temperatures of the pack, each time the wind would blow, I’d be forced to close my eyes and brace for the tiny freezing daggers that were sent into my skin even with the expensive jacket which hung around my body. The atmosphere somewhat the same as the conflicting feelings in my gut, did I do the right thing… should Scarlett be killed and if she is, is it my fault? “Are you sure you’re doing the right thing Dominic, yes I’m angry at Scarlett and hate her guts, but should she die?” I asked as we stood off to the side of the pack house waiting for each pack member to follow Dominic’s orders and gather in the front. Dominic, whose smirk hadn’t left his lips since my little outburst in his office, chuckled lowly, using the hand which was still interlocked with mine to pull me sharply into his body, that same almost suffocating aura of power and intimidation pouring from him like a wave. “Oh, my angel
Scarlett seemed to sob even louder as she sat on her knees in front of us, the chains tightly wrapped around her body which shook uncontrollably clanged together. If I didn’t know who she truly was and all the evil schemes which she plots inside that awful head of hers, I would begin to feel somewhat bad for her… but that was the last emotion I ever feel when I’m in front of this woman. “When Dominic explained to me what you did and how you tried to seduce him for the power which would come even though you have a mate stood beside you who seems perfect, I didn’t think a person existed who could do such a thing… but now I know it’s really you, it’s not surprising at all, your entire existence is based on jealousy.” I smirked looking down at this woman with such hatred, a burning type of anger igniting in my gut the moment I spoke about this woman wanting to take Dominic away from me. “You attempted to seduce the Alpha?!” The Gamma who wasn’t caught up with much of the story, growls
I continued to follow Grace down the winding steps and into the main section of the building, if I wasn’t so amazed by each detail that sat in front of me in this beautiful building, I may have noticed the looks each person I would pass would send. Each had the biggest smiles on their faces as tho
The brightest rays of sun leaking through the window and hitting me straight in the eyes wakes me from my deep sleep, my face screwing up at the sight and pushing the incredibly soft pillow over the top of my head, I hoped to fall back into that sleep and forget about the sun for even a few more pr
The hours seemed to tick by ever so slowly once Dominic had left to handle whatever happened outside, my mind having more than enough time to spiral and conquer up the worst possible scenarios to come out of this. Even though Dominic had said he wouldn’t hurt me, what I seen the moment I entered t
Even though my eyes were tightly closed and filled my vision with darkness, my brain seemed to spin so quickly it was as though I was sat on some kind of fairground ride which was spinning me so incredibly fast. Slowly opening up my eyes hoping the feeling would pass, they felt the heaviest they e
