Enya pov
"I'm the one you don’t want to fuck with." I hear his voice before I notice Vincent hovering over my father. I may forget names or faces, but voices always stay in my memory, especially ones as deep and powerful as Vincent's. Every bit of logical thinking I have just flies out the window as I charge right at Vincent. It doesn't matter if I get hurt if one of the wolves gets hurt, but my father is untouchable. I'd rather die than let anyone harm him.
I take advantage of the moment he's too focused on my father and run to them. When I'm close enough, I drop to the ground and slide past the unconscious hunter's body. I grab the knife from his belt. At least I didn't forget where we keep our weapons. The moment my body stops sliding across the ground, I end up nearly in-between Vincent's legs. I grip the knife and lift it up, aimin
Hi! I'm sorry for the extra long chapter, I'll make sure to have them shorter as the next updates come! <3
Aros pov I can't believe Vince did this. Of all the wolves I know, he's the one who always does his best to set an example for everyone. Now he's slowly turning into someone he hates. Right now, I have no idea who is telling me the truth. On one side, I have my best friend, my Alpha, and he tells me he did nothing wrong. On the other hand, I have my human best friend, who I should hate from the bottom of my heart. But I can't. Enya has proven that she is a compassionate and fantastic person- everything about her screams good. She claims that Vincent tried to rape her, and while I want to believe him, I'm not sure of his words anymore as Enya stabbed him. She wouldn't do that; I know she wouldn't if she didn't think it was necessary. Or maybe he scared her. Back in the woods, I could see in her eyes how much she wanted to protect her father. Unfortunately, she
Enya povI stare at Aros and carefully push the plate aside. I close my eyes and lean my head against the wall. Maybe I should try acting like an actual human being and stop being so difficult? After all, Aros didn't do anything to hurt me. He probably didn't know about the basil anyway. "I understand that everyone in these cells gets a piece of bread and some water at best. But I'd rather starve than enjoy the reaction of my allergy. It wouldn't be half as painful to die if I chose starvation," I explain. His expression changes from horror to concern and anger. I'm not sure what he's feeling or thinking, but I don't believe any of those emotions could be good. "Look," I sigh. "It's not your fault, okay? I'm assuming you didn't know. But if you did know and you are still bringing me this food, I'll eat it. It's not like I see the end of this whole mess. Maybe it's better to end it before the situatio
Vincent povWe took Enya to the pack hospital. Again.I don't understand why this keeps happening. We know she's in great shape, and someone who fights as she does can't just collapse like this. Back in the cells, I wanted to check something, but since she refused to eat, I'm pretty sure I got my answers. However, when I caught the smell of blood, I knew something was wrong. I pushed Aros aside and ran to her. The cough didn't sound good, and I knew it was more than just a cold. By the time we got her to the doctors, she had managed to vomit blood all over me, even though Enya was unconscious.Now we are sitting in the hallway waiting for the doctors to tell us what's wrong with her.Aros won't stop pacing like a concerned parent while I focus on
Vincent pov"Give me a moment," I smile at the nurse and dismiss her. As she enters the room, I turn back to Aros. "Go to your room and get some sleep; it might help you calm down. Once I finish everything here, I'll be waiting for you in my office. And before you say anything- I will mind-link you if anything happens to Enya. I respect your wishes as much as you respect my decision." The smile that spreads across his lips is enough for me to know that Aros agrees and will probably get some sleep.Aside from the hunter in the packhouse, it's pretty quiet around here. I'm ahead of schedule with paperwork as usual, and the pack members are doing well. The daily patrols come and go on time, and to everyone's surprise, we haven't had any problems with the rogues since the incident during the supposed fight between Enya and Allison.
Vincent povOne of the doctors speaks up in a voice so excited I want to hurt her. "That's exactly the point, Alpha; we have no idea." She sounds way too happy to be someone who wants to live any longer. Does she have a death wish or something? This is not an exciting matter to discuss. Just a few minutes ago, I wanted to force Enya into the cells, and now all I can think about is how to protect her. I almost lose myself in thought, but the same cheerful voice brings me back to reality. "But since we suspect something was wrong when you brought her in last time, we ran more blood tests today. There were a few deviations from normal last time, but we didn't see as much wolfsbane or any at all. As you can see, this is not only highly suspicious but dangerous. To us." She explains. One of her statements catches my attention, and I finally take my eyes off the numbers to look at the doctor.
Angela povI end the call with Vincent and glare at my daughter. She sat by my side during the phone conversation. She could hear everything perfectly, but it seems Vincent's words only affected me. "I can't believe I have a daughter as useless as you!" I yell at Allison. She's not a woman; she's a disgrace to everything we have planned for her. Ever since I met Roma and his son Vincent, I knew the little pup would become a great Alpha.The wolves in the packs talk about how great an Alpha Vincent Romano is and how they would love to be part of his pack. They all love and respect the man, near and far. They admire and fear the man he has become. I like to think I invested a lot in the persona he has become, but of course, Vincent is too proud to admit that.I watch my daughter run to her father; she is a
Enya povWaking up to the scent of a hospital is starting to get on my nerves. Too often, I scrunch my nose at the heavy stench of medicines and cleaning supplies. Opening my eyes, I take in my surroundings. I have a couple of heavy-looking machines and cables attached to my arms. I'm alone, and there's no sign of any medical personnel nearby. I can use this opportunity to get the hell out of this damn place. I'm tired of hanging around wolves- all they try to do is kill me in a way that takes suspicion off them. A true warrior would kill me in the arena or on the battlefield, but these creatures have no honour. First the basil, and then I start coughing up blood? Something tells me they have given me something; it must be them. Father was right. I shouldn't give in and pretend to feel something- no feelings means no attachment.My gaz
Vincent pov When the nurse mind-linked me and told me that Enya had woken up, I was ready to tear the whole pack to pieces to get to her. But when she told me that the human girl was sitting against the wall like a scared cub and wouldn't let anyone but Aros and me near her, something inside me snapped. I've never felt so threatened in my life as I did at that moment. I ran like a madman down the stairs and towards the hospital. As I got closer to the room, I knew something had changed. Out of nowhere, I noticed a delicious smell that drew me closer and closer. The growl escaped my lips before I could stop it. It was not until I was in her room that I understood where the scent was coming from- Enya. Now that there was no wolfsbane in her system, her scent changed, but at the same time, she seemed weaker than ever. Her face was pale, and even from a distance, I could see that she wouldn't be able
