My senses became active even before my eyes. I can feel hushed murmuring somewhere around me but I can't point out who they are, my head throbbed and to add on it, I feel the burning sensation on my birthmark returning back.My life could never get better. I'm sure, I must be some defected piece or maybe I irritated God a hell lot in my previous life that he thought of sending me back on earth and take his revenge this way. Whatever it was, I'm surely paying for something that I don't even know about.My eye lid for the first time felt like weighed tons as I find myself unable to open my eyes. But my wolf ability allowed me to listen through the hushed conversation.It went like."You don't even know who she is! She is a bad news and you should send her off.""She is my mate. I'm listening to you just because I respect you and you were a good friend to my mother.""That's why I am suggesting you to leave her, let her go. She'll be nothing but a huge danger to you. I can feel it.""How
When you meet me first time, yeah I give you the impression of those womens who hardly knows how to dress up.I totally agree because I have been in jeans throughout my life, but when the event comes, I know how to dress to impress.Willingly or unwillingly, today, I want to dress nicely. As cliché as it sounds, but for Byrone. His opinion matters. I want to look good for him. I enjoy his eyes on me and well, I don't get lot of opportunities to dress up, so I'm gonna grab whatever I got.I pick the clothes and place it down on the bed after analysing for n'th times if this is 'The' dress for the fest today. Considering it's an outdoor event, so I picked a light outfit for a better appearance.I quickly dress up because Arena here has dutifully informed me that most of the guests had already arrived.Curling my hair, I keep my makeup light for a natural look with nude lipstick and kohl and pair my dress with black cutout heels.The day is clear and bright, radiating happiness and with
I smirk knowing well that I had sparked his Interest in me."You seem to have lot of confidence in yourself." He comments cocking his head to one side and raising a brow at me.I turn and look at him sceptically. And then I smile again. I know my smile and calm attitude irks him more than my confidence."You don't survive in this world if you lack in confidence." Is all I answer before I leave and walk towards Byrone, smiling at him, who is currently busy talking to someone. They can't be dealt in evening at the meeting.He smiles at me as he sees me coming towards him and stretches his hand for me to take. I walk towards him giving him my hand but he refuses to hold my hand. I look up confused and he just smiles and place his hand on small of my back."Here, meet Avery, my mate." He Introduces me with so much pride in his voice that for a second I'm so moved with his actions that I forget that other person is greeting me."Avery, he is James. My very old friend and Alpha of Destiny p
You know that moment of your life when you are facing a situation and you are in a big dilemma of whether to explain yourself and fall right in the trap or stay quite and face the consequences. I am stuck in the same situation. Xian played it well here. "I want Avery." He demanded "Because I have heard of her skills and I need her extra healing skills..." He added, and my stomach churns at the thought of going with him. No one knows him the way I do. It's all a facade. I doubt if he needs my healing skills, I know he wants me back for some unknown reason. He played it well because he knows Byrone can't say him no. Not in the pack meeting. It's against the rules of the fest. Fest is celebrated to bind everyone together and Byrone being the organiser if refuses to help, the whole purpose of fest will fall apart. This is the moment I regret not telling Byrone about my horrific past with Xian. I kept myself hidden from Xian for a long period of time, I had no idea he will find me
"Mischa... W-Why?" I groaned, clutching my chest. Somehow the drug she injected inside me, hurts me in my chest. And I have no idea what is happening inside me. The twist in the tale is being an Alpha Healer, I can heal others but when it comes to me, my body betrays me. I heal at a very slow rate but that doesn't mean that I won't heal. And that is what giving me strength right now to stand and speak even after being in heart wrenching pain. "I'm sorry... I had no other option. I am in as much trouble as you are right now." She whispers unable to meet my eyes and I stumbling upon my legs like a drunk turn and look at the person behind smirking at me. Narrowing my eyes, I step back pushing Mischa at my back to protect her. But when I tried to shift, nothing happened. The colour drained off my face and the smirking man infront of me chuckled. "Unable to shift, Dear Alpha?" He questioned tauntingly. I swear if I wasn't tricked this way I would have just killed him right here. Witho
BYRONE My head feels like it's going to burst any second now. When we reach towards the northern wing of the pack house, it seemed much like havoc. Turns out someone has been spreading rumors about a criminal; who escaped from our dungeon cell and is now hiding in the northern wing. That's nearly impossible, as I have my pack's best warriors guarding the dungeon today because of the fest. And Enrile just returned from patrol, so call it overconfidence but I know this won't happen. These gullible Luna's created the whole chaos, taking me away from my precious mate and from our moment together. I release a tired sigh. It's not always I receive some sort of response from Avery, but today I felt like she will agree with me and be my mate. Then of course it had to be ruined. My mate who would have thought. I smiled thinking about her dark brown locks and her warm hazel brown eyes which reflects every emotion so deeply when she lets them to be seen. Her skin is a perfect blend; neithe
The pain keeps on increasing and increasing. I shivered as a cool breeze hits my body. But I'm unable to decide why I am feeling so cold? Suddenly warmth fills my body and I absentmindedly clutch the cloth closer to me in desperate need to get rid of the cold and feel some warmth. Still uncomfortable with the situation I twist and turn. Finally, I give up and open my eyes. The moment I did, trust me, I wanted nothing more than to go back and close my eyes, sleep again and think that I am just dreaming. I was back. Back in the same place I dreaded the most. The same cage I lived in, few years back. But only this time, I had company. A warm shawl was draped over me, and I was wrapped in it. I think that's what provided me warmth. "Mischa!? What is going on in here?" I questioned my voice hoarse. I pull my body up balancing on my hands as I try to sit up. Mischa glances down at me worriedly and yells at someone and something about a healer. "Someone please tell me, what the heck is
Pain. It was all I could feel, just excruciating pain. I had no idea what was going on. My body was squirming under my sheets, trying to clutch myself, desperately trying to stop the pain, to hold myself together.I let out an agonising scream. Immediately I heard multiple footsteps running, gaining on me every second. My body coiled up, my muscles tightening.I wasn't paying attention, I couldn't, the only thing on my mind was the pain. Snap. I heard the sickening crunch of my bones breaking.Suddenly it dawned on me that I was being carried outside, the cold air hit me, making the pain only a little less excruciating.The open field of our packs land was so tempting, it was like something inside of me was tearing me apart limb by limb, desperately trying to escape.Why? I wondered, why did it want to get out so badly?I didn't have time to dwell on that thought as before i knew it my body was writhing in agony, feeling my bones break, snap
