"Get in!" He commanded as soon as we arrived in front of a car.
"Where the fuck are we going to?" Lora whimpered, but at this point, I wished I knew the answer.
I sat in the back seat with him beside me, but his face wasn't turned to me; rather, he was staring at the road while his driver drove us past different places.
"Where are you taking me to?" I finally decided to speak up after contemplating whether I would die if I said those words or not.
"You'll know when we get there," he answered. I wouldn't count it as an answer because it didn't satisfy my curiosity, but now all I had to do was to fervently pray that I wouldn't end up in a bad state.
I noticed his driver pulled over at a huge, fancy store. I immediately recognized the store because I would always pass by sometimes and wish I could shop there. Most of my rich classmates did the
We were having a normal class today, which meant I didn't need to train, and I was glad about it. I really didn't want to embarrass myself in front of other wolves and show that I was a weak person. I strolled down the hallway in the big mansion to where my class would be, but the thought of us all having the same class together made my tummy churn. I didn't want to be in the same class as Asher because whenever I saw him together with Tala, it made my wolf unable to breathe, and I could sometimes feel a sharp sting in my heart. I wasn't over the rejection yet. In fact, no wolf would get over a rejection that easily. Then, he used to be my boyfriend, but now he's my sister's, and it made me hurt more. On reaching the door to our new classroom, I heaved a deep breath, trying to contain as much oxygen as I could so I wouldn't suffocate myself to death when I got to see Tala and Asher together. "What the fuck are you doing?" Ariel'
"don't forget your assignments" the teacher said before packing up his huge textbooks and walking out of the class.I looked around the classroom wondering if he left in annoyance or we were through with the class for today. I hadn't been paying attention to him since he got into the class but it seemed like the class was over.Ariel didn't return to the class because her seat beside me was still empty, neither did Tala or Asher, perhaps they're still in the Mistress's office.I also packed my books to leave the class and walked down the hallway in an attempt to reach my room and sulk the rest of my day on the bed."Ouch, can't you watch where you're going...." My voiced trailed halfway as I lifted my head up to see who had bumped into me."I'm sorry" he apologized while I stood still like a statue.I didn't know what to say to him because anyti
"Did he hurt you?" She asked and I debated on whether to respond to her or not but then I just couldn't stay away from the asshole."No, he didn't" I replied with cringed brows but immediately turned them into a smile so she wouldn't be worried."I'll help you with the door" she offered and I watched how she miraculously fixed the door back and I wondered why I couldn't do it right.After she fixed the door and entered the room, I made sure to lock it behind before I started to pour my mind out."Why is he always like that to me?" I asked and Ariel looked at me for some seconds before shrugging."I have no idea either," she said but underneath those eyes I could tell she was lying and didn't want to say anything because earlier on she had said something like she doesn't want to talk In order to not get herself into trouble.
"What do you mean?" He asked, trying to reverse my question."I can smell her all over you and it's really strong that it hurts my nose and...." I trailed off, I didn't want to tell him that the stench of Tala on him made my chest hurt because I was trying to be a strong wolf."And what?" He asked but I shook my head."Nothing, just that" I replied and he sighed loudly."Well I'll tell you why you can perceive her smell around me" he said and I lifted my eyes to look at him because I was really interested in it and wanted to know why."Why's that?""Because, on my way here I bumped into her. I would have been here on time but she was the reason I was late." He said and I was becoming more confused as to why she made him late."So?" I begged for him to continue."Well, she stopped me b
I kept quiet while he dragged me to the car because I was scared I would say something to offend him which would be the last thing I would do.I had already broken a serious rule and I might as well be punished like the way he punished Asher the other day or the way he killed the man in the boutique.The fear of not getting to say my final goodbye to my grandmother made me sad as I turned back to look at her but she was clueless about what was happening but was only smiling.I turned to look at Alaric's face and they held no sympathy for me. I knew I was toasted the moment we got to the car."Get in!" He commanded as I tried to get into the passenger seat but he held my arms really tight causing them to hurt as he opened the front seat and pushed me in it.He has never been this angry with me despite whatever I did but today's was different which made me
"Very well then, you've made your decision!" He said and turned his back to walk away but kicked Asher off the floor before walking away.I gasped at the impact of his kick on Asher because it had thrown him to the wall."Asher!" I screamed as I ran to meet him but the instant i got close to him, he wouldn't let me touch him as he sent me a burning glare and clenched his teeth at me."Asher!" I called out his name again but this time I was hurt at his behavior. I had expected him to embrace me with his arms but rather he shoved me off and stood up by himself.I watched how he leaped away from me in pain. I hated to see him in this much pain but he wasn't going to let me help him or even touch him and it made the knot on my chest tighten even more.I was shocked as I stood speechless in the middle of the room when other wolves in the room slowly raised their heads up
"Who cares about you?!" He blurted out and my whole body froze on the spot as I was trying to understand if I had heard him clearly or if he actually did mean what he said. "What do you mean?" I asked with my shaky voice. He didn't seem to respond on time as he massaged his temples while I stared at him in shock waiting for an explanation. "I'm sorry" he said after some time after rubbing his face with his palm but I wasn't going to receive a mere apology for the word he had just said. "No don't tell me sorry, why the fuck would you say that to me!" I yelled in pain but he didn't say anything else and kept on staring at me. "You're making me feel like I'm being us
"Do not ever raise your hands on me!" He roared with his lycan aura as his grip on my hand tightened and for some moment there I thought I was going to end up with a broken wrist as he didn't release his hand from mine even though I winced loudly in pain."Now leave!" He coldly said as he pushed me to the floor, letting my head hit the ground really hard that I suddenly started to feel a throbbing bad ache there, my vision started to blur out and the last thing I could see were his eyes, they were no longer golden but mildly green and then I blacked out.*****"Nora!" A voice called my name as my eyes fluttered but I immediately shut it back due to the amount of light that was entering my eyes."I'm glad you're okay now" the voice said
