VINCENT
I roll in bed next to my mate, I open my eyes and shrug, it's morning already,. Time flies real fast when you become an alpha , the responsibility weighs you down, but at the same time it's a thing of honor, I feel my mate brush her hair against my chest,
"Awake ?"
She smiles at me ,
" Yes my Lord"
I laugh at her statement
" And what's with the cheeky line ? , did you sleep well?"
"I did,but judging by the fact that you're grinning first thing in the morning I guess you didn't get a lot of sleep"
"You know me so well, I'm worried about our son Arthur"
At the mention of Arthur, she sits up and looks at me
"Come on vincent we talked about this, Arthur can't be Alpha, you and I know well house this would end if he becomes the ruler"
"I know love, but I can't help but pity him it's like we are robbing him off his birthright, besides you gave him 3 fullmoons how sure are you that he wouldn't find her?"
Her expression saddens for a while then she leans in for a hug,
" He couldn't find her for 2 decades what makes it so sure he would find her in 3 full moons, it's not like they'll just bump into each other, as much as it hurts me to watch my son suffer without a mate making him alpha would only worsen the situation of things"
LAURA
On getting home, I walk into my room ignoring mum's rants and fusses over me jogging out early, I've killed alot more than I can recall, I never knew they aren't human I always found them strange some had claws, others fangs but mostly I always got them in their weak state , until I met that stranger who explained wolves and vampires I didn't really believe by they existed until she explained it all,
I strip and walk into the shower I turn it all and trace the tattoo on my body suddenly I get goosebumps, and whenever I do it had no other reason, it's to notify me that it's time for another kill
************************************
I squint my eyes narrowing them as the sun gets in my eyes, I yawn lazily as I put in my sunglasses ,it's been an hour on the school grounds , freshers are being addressed I can't help but feel bored I stretch like a stranded sea turtle, suddenly the school grounds becomes filled with noise, everyone seems to go insane as a boy walks to the podium, I stake of my sunglasses, strain my eyes wanting to know who this person is, at first I see him faintly but gradually I see him, a blonde guy, about five feet tall, he's not skinny but not huge somehow in the middle , he has curly brown hair , he has the right amount of biceps complementing his gorgeous body, and a pretty face to top it all.
"Who is this guy?" I ask myself and just like in que , he grabs the microphone to introduce himself and everywhere becomes silent.
"Hello guys, i'm the school's baseball captain, previous students know me but for you freshers I'm William , I hope we get along pretty well"
Just in que again everyone claps , shouts and I could hear some I love yous in the background ,
"Damn, this guy is freaking hot"
And then the sudden realisation hits me, is everyone in this town cute, the memory from earlier this morning floods in , the cutie crying into my arms, I smile at the memory
"I can't believe some random guy made me blush this hard". I turn to move away from the crowd, trying to find a place to seat my skin brushes past another's and I feel the goosebumps again, I turn to look at the person, she's looking just like a normal human , backpack strapped to her shoulder , standing listening to whoever was speaking on the podium , but I bet on my brother that she's not human.
I walk towards her with the brightest smile ever,
"Hi, I saw you from a distance and you looked too gorgeous to ignore"
She looks at me for a while unsure of where this conversation might be leading to
"Hello, and thanks for the compliment but how may I help you?"
I think fast for an excuse, anything to get her alone the urge to drive a stake or shoot an arrow through her becomes stronger by the minute, she looks at me intensely, any mistake or wrong word would end it all
" I like you". I blurt out senselessly, if anything at all it should be the fact that my hatred for her is rising by the second,
"You sure are brave for a fresher, what's your name? I'm Edna "
I shook hands with her suppressing the urge to twist it,
"I'm Laura , aren't you a fresher?" I ask
"I know I look small and all but no, I'm a senior third year actually, I like you too, not that I noticed you from afar, but you walking up to me full of courage makes me think you are adorable"
"Thanks it was hard walking up to you and being this way"
I hide the true meaning of my sentence , I take two steps away from her visions of people I've killed gushes in all at once, I feel greater urge to kill her right now but, I can't I'm not so stupid to do such in public, she gives me a coy smile, a smile that turns my tummy inside out, she takes four steps closer leaning in on me she brushes my hair and tucks them behind her ears, she holds my hand and rubs on my knuckles, I hold her back tightening the grip,
"Wanna hang out tonight?"
She says into my ears, I nod like an agamma feeling so irritated , the need to puke becomes higher with each second passing by,
"There's a party downtown, a friend of mine is hosting the mayor's son, would you come around?"
I nod yet again, she hasn't stopped rubbing my knuckles nor moved away a little,
"Can I have your digits? I'll text you the address"
I move away from her taking possible steps away from her at once I reach for my phone and stretch it towards her not wanting to move closer, she calls her number and winks at me ,
"I'll see you tonight then"
I nod my head again making a total fool of myself, I smile as she walks away
"Tonight it is then"
ARTHUR
I sit down looking gloomy, I watch silently as william introduces himself , I hear noises,cheers and claps , from the crowd all my life and I've never felt this jealous, the fact that he's right before me and I can't have him hurts me a lot, I watch him smile and introduce himself , I've never felt this insecure he has always been charming , lovely, popular , handsome and has always been swarmed by girls but none of it ever bothered me because I knew he was mine, none mattered to him other than I , Now everything is different, I know he loves me but judging by his attitude up there I can tell he's ready to move on without me.
"Still sulking?"
I turn to see Callie, her face few inches away from mine her huge green eyes staring at me,
I snort at her question she really suits my brother well, the moon goddess made them mates for a reason,
"Where's your mate?"
She twists her mouth to a side raising both of her eyebrows
" Watch your words Arthur , we are at school anyone can hear you"
A smile forms at the corner of my mouth,
"And what's with this dress of yours? Isn't it a little too revealing , I guarantee Asher won't be pleased"
I watch with satisfaction as her expression changes from taunting to worry
"Common Arthur what's wrong with my clothing?, Don't be so grumpy"
I look at her from head to toe trying to pick out my first complain , I must say my brother is one lucky bastard, he's mate can be classified as a 10 out of 10, she's pretty, has the curves and smart, most wolves in our pack still oggle at her knowing well that she has a mate,
I look at her once more, she's dress in a strapless mini gown,
" I'm sorry , I guess there's nothing wrong with ""your clothing"" how about we leave it for Asher to decide?"
" You won't snitch on me right?"
I laugh at her childish question, she's not going to run off home and change right?
"What's there to snitch about he's right behind you"
She looks back to see an angry Asher, I must say she got a possessive mate , I stand and proceed to take my leave , I walk past her and stop few feets away
" Common quit sulking I guess you both can handle it without causing a ruckus"
With that I move away from them with a smirk plastered on my face
LAURAMy phone rings for the fourth time tonight, thank goodness I placed it on vibration , I walk quietly and slowly down the stairs , I'm not afraid my parents might find me they probably are sleeping like logs of woods by now , they are always exhausted everynight after a day's work at the office the only worry I have is Bruce, I can tell he's up playing video games , I don't want him ratting me out to my parentsI make a little squeaky sound on the last stair"Damn, the floorboard must be loose"I look up the stairs waiting for anyone to show up anytime soon after few seconds of waiting and no sign of anyone I proceed to open the door quietly,
LAURA I stretch lazily, as I open my lids slowly, I adjust to the r dim lighted room, I can barely see things clearly , I move my hand unconsciously to feel something soft , I look down to my hand, it's a bed An alarm rings in my brain all of a sudden , it's a bed but not my bed, the memory of the previous events and my blackout hits me, instinctively I search around for a weapon, anything , but all my attempt ends in failure , the only thing in the room is a bed and a sofa, Someone turns on the light switch a I squint my eyes away from the light and slowly open them back ,gradually my lenses adjust to the light I see the woman from the previous night before the door, I
WILLIAMI grunt so loud everyone hears, I've always being a sucker for school trips but this summer i have no interest in going , every year the school organises school trips during summer on resumption I've always loved going because It creates more time for me to hang out with Arthur, we spend quality time together away from the prying eyes of the pack ,Somehow this summer everything managed to go downside within a week,it's enough trouble I have to go through the heartbreak cycle but now I'm stuck in rooms with himAre they screwing with me?, Last night I hoped to speak with him, I looked all around for him I was prepared to plead , grovel , i'd do anything to stop him from brooding but to my greatest shock I saw him flirting with
ARTHURI hold my hand down towards my lower abdomen, the feeling to retch overwhelms me, I've been in the bus for an hour , I'm headed for the school trip in Kentucky , I've avoided cramped spaces a lot ruthar likes being free once he stays in a place too long he begins to get the feeling of being cagedDuring my previous trips I've had fun times not minding anything being with William on the bus but this summer it all sucks , I think very hard"I'm not jealous right? Am I getting the feeling to retch due to my being cramped with noisy kids on the bus or because of the scene before me?"I look u
ASHERI highlight from the bus tilting my head then stretching , I had fun watching my brother drown in despair, he's such a loser, I've had my eyes on him all through , i want him to take his rightful place as alpha but he seems to have little or no interest in becoming one, he has a timeline of 3 full moons to find his mate but he seems to be making little or no effort in finding her I hope my plan goes down well."Go on I need rest and change if clothes I'm soaking wet from sweat in this outfit" I raise my hand to Pat her hair, she's pretty I watch as she continues to whine about the stuffy bus and the long trip, "Callie, I told you not to wear I warned you it was going to be a long trip and we would be cramped but what did you say ?" She looks down at her feet pouting , "I had to look colourful at least to make a statement"She's pissing me off ND she knows it
( WARNING THIS ÇHAPTER CONTAINS R18 PLEASE SKIP IF YOU AREN'T IN THE AGE RANGE )ARTHURI restrain myself from wiping off the tears, he sniffs"When I said I lost it, i meant I couldn't get things right , I was confused and alone you left me shattered, and there's nothing between frederik and I , dad told me to arrange a meeting with alpha Zack, I asked for him but I was told he went for an alliance meeting, trust me I was stuck with Frederick he came onto me I didn't see it coming , we talked about little things and relayed the message dad asked me to and all of a sudden he kisses me out of the blue, I left as soon as he did it,
LAURA"Hi guys, you all know me , I guess, I'm here to make a toast to my girl Laura she's new and mine I hope you guys respect her just like you do to me""What's he doing?" I ask no one but myself, he hold me tight bending me slightly, he tilts my neck to a side , before I could get a grasp of the situation he kisses me , he presses hard on my shoulder making me stand stiff any wrong movement from me and that's bye bye to my shoulders, he disengages from the kiss pulling me away from the crowd, I follow behind like a programmed AI robot,Finally he stops in a garden, he looks at and away from me, expecting me to tell or shout"I'm sorry laura,"
LAURAI turned pink with embarrassment, next minute he rolls me over, he's on top of me with my back laying on his hands , I fell his breath fanning against my face, "Am I still looking goofy to you?"He raises a brow with the smug grin which seems to become wider by the minute, I gulp hard swallowing, "Yes goofy "He smirks "Your heart says otherwise,and will you please stop it from beating that hard, I can feel it's vibration against my hand and my eardrums are about to explode, are you in love with me gorgeous" I snort pushing him off me, "You wish right?, Besides I don't have things for gays" I watch him waiting for a suprised look but nothing no expression if anything at all I'd say he's feeling proud of himself, "Can't u be gay? Are you perhaps disappointed ? For you I may turn straight" I walk completely away fro
