ELLA“Three generations? What do you mean?” she asked, and I shrugged.I wanted to hesitate and tell her it was nothing, but I could see that this was an important aspect of our lives as werewolves. If the Blackthorns, who were the strongest of all the packs, were experiencing something they didn’t know how to deal with, then I didn’t want to imagine the chaos that would ensue if this happened with the other packs.“When I was unconscious, I met an ancestor and had a very lengthy yet enlightening conversation about my history as a Harper and my connection with the Blackthorns.”I told her about details of my pack that Ava had revealed to me while keeping bits of information about being a transitional alpha to myself. That was still something I wanted to keep out of earshot until I completely understood it.It was a long shot withholding such information, but I wanted to see if I could meet her again when we restarted the process. Perhaps she’d be able to shed light on how it worked an
EllaI sighed and resigned myself to my fate. I would have to tell someone about it sooner or later. It certainly wouldn’t be Quincy, as I couldn’t gauge what his reaction to hearing that Lucian had dropped by uninvited would be.It also wouldn’t be anyone at the Sevill house either; after spending some time with them, it was easy to tell that word travelled fast in there, and as a newcomer, I would hate to add more fuel to the fire.The last time they saw me, Quincy and I were leaving the house together, and after the conversations I had with the others, I knew it was only a matter of time until the entire house heard what I had set out to do.Claire, on the other hand, was restricted by ethics to keep information between us confidential. It would make sense to take advantage of it to a considerable extent.“He…” I began and exhaled slowly. “He came looking for me.”“What?!” she exclaimed and broke into a hearty laugh.“What’s funny?” I asked, mildly irritated that she found any of t
Ella“I see why you like him,” Claire said after he closed the door behind him. Her eyes twinkled with a knowing look that had me unsure if she was teasing or not.“You can’t be serious,” I answered, rolling my eyes as she cleared the area where she had cleaned and wrapped his wounds. I could still feel his aura lingering in the room, and it irked me subtly.“Why? He’s handsome, can hold his own in a fight, and is clearly a man of his word. What’s there not to like?”“Lucian is a lot of things, but I wouldn’t bank on him keeping his word about not going through the woods, and we’re worlds apart. Liking him is nowhere on the menu.”“Maybe that’s because you haven’t let yourself feel the appropriate emotions when it comes to him,” she said, bagging the items she had used to treat him before moving to the table to pick up a bottle of hand sanitizer.“Believe me when I tell you that I couldn’t like him even if I tried. He has that effect on people.”“Really? I couldn’t tell,” she replied
Lucian“What the hell is wrong with me?” I muttered as I walked out of the warehouse, heaving a sigh as the air blew gently across my face. My conversation with Claire and her approach regarding the entire situation had made it clear that I could have handled things a lot differently with Ella. But then again, she wasn’t particularly a—I looked around the deserted area and shook my head. I had come here based on what the seer had said, hoping that if I found Ella, we might have a solution to Kade’s problem.But that had been futile. I wasn’t sure why I thought she’d be willing to help, nor did I anticipate the ambush in the woods. For the first time in a long while, I had acted purely on emotion, and the results were nothing like I had imagined.At my core, I could accept that desperation had been a motivating factor, which wasn’t a good look on me. But given everything I had to deal with at a time like this, maybe it would do me some good to cut myself some slack. At least I had lea
ELLA“Claire,” he said, and ran his hands through his hair. “I can call you that, right?” he added, and she nodded. “I’ve been through worse, and I promise I’ll be fine.”“Please listen to him and let him go so we can carry on with why we came here in the first place,” I chirped, and she shot me a warning look.I had never seen her react that way to anything, and I was starting to think there was more to her refusal to let him go than she was letting on. In all honesty, it didn’t sit right with me to let him leave without healing fully, and even if she didn’t know the full story about what happened in the woods, she was right.If he went back in there, he’d be walking straight into a trap, but as I said earlier, that was his cross to carry. The last few minutes I spent with him had taught me that assholes don’t deserve favours, and I was done doing things for people who didn’t deserve it.Right now, I just wanted to enjoy some peace and quiet so I could recuperate, and we could contin
