Noah~•~I spent the rest of the night in the bathtub washing myself and crying. I felt dirty, I felt used, I felt embarrassed. I knew I had fucked up. I even cried harder when I saw the spots of blood on the areas of my vagina. Dimitri had taken my virginity and didn’t say anything else to me when he was done. He just stared at me for a while and got dressed up before leaving my room. I couldn’t stop myself from crying and I couldn’t tell the only person who could make me feel better - Aiden, what I had just done. I wasn’t blaming anyone for what had just happened, it was all my fault but I wish I could go back in time and slam the door when I saw it was Dimitri knocking. I have made many mistakes in my life, but this was the greatest one, I couldn’t take it back. I felt hurt, I felt sad, I felt betrayed, I felt heartbroken. My heart was filled with a whirlwind of emotions. I swallowed hard as I thought of the events of the previous night. How was I going to face Aiden? Even if
Noah~•~“Why does it feel like you’ve been avoiding me for the past two weeks?” Aiden asked after we were done eating breakfast. “I haven’t been avoiding you, everything has just been overwhelming.” I cleared up all the plates and took them back to the kitchen while Aiden trailed behind me. “Noah.” He gently took my hand and pulled me to the counter, after I had placed the dirty plates in the sink. “Are you sure? You know you can talk to me about anything.” Sure, I could talk to him about anything. But how do I tell him his elder brother, who treats me like trash took my virginity? I couldn’t bring myself to look at him in the eye. I couldn’t tell him. Aiden trusted me and I had betrayed that trust. I had betrayed him and I didn’t know how to make it right. He reached out and took my hands. His touch was gentle and reassuring. “Look, I know something is bothering you and you have to talk to me.” I sighed. “Okay, fine. It’s nothing really, it’s just because of Uncle Zach and his
Noah~•~When he was done, he came and stood in front of me, a sheepish grin on his face. “Noah.” He took a deep breath and giggled. “Will you be my girlfriend?” His blue eyes were full of hope but I felt my heart sink. How could I say yes when I had just slept with his brother? “Noah, I’m sorry.” He began pacing back and forth in the room. “I’m so stupid, you’re mourning Uncle Zach and I’m here asking you to be my girlfriend.” I was frozen, I didn’t know what to say to him. “I know this isn’t the right time, I shouldn’t have asked you.” He sat down beside me. “Noah, say something please.” I thought for a while before finally speaking. If I didn’t want him to find out my secret, I needed to act normal. “Aiden, calm down.” I reached for his hands and squeezed it gently. “Can I give you an answer later? I don’t want our special day to be on the day of Uncle Zach’s funeral.” “Okay.” “Aiden,” I called his name softly. “What happens when you find your true mate?” I asked, my heart
Dimitri ~•~After the funeral, I came back home with my dad and we decided to sit outside for a moment. It was a sad day for everyone in the pack and I needed a moment to take it all in. We had barely sat down for over ten minutes when I saw Asher, the gamma, and Caro walking into the compound. It was rare for other members to visit, but since there was an event, I didn’t read any meaning into it. “I like how you handled everything today.” My dad praised me. “You’re my true son and it wasn’t a mistake passing down the alpha position to you.” A small smile played on my lips as I heard those words. It didn’t matter if a lot of people thought of me as an asshole, as long as my father commended me, I didn’t care what any other person thought of me. “Alpha Dimitri.” Caro and Asher both greeted me in a worried tone after greeting my dad. I started sensing something bad had happened again. “What is the problem?” I asked Asher who had a tense look on his face. “Her mother is dead.” He
Dimitri~•~After waiting a few more minutes, Katie finally opened the door. “What do you need my help with?” She asked in the meanest way possible. I signaled for her to keep quiet and follow me. I didn’t want Noah to hear what I was about to tell her. I didn’t really care if she heard or not but Aiden was going to kill me if I let her hear. Luckily enough, Katie agreed and followed me quietly. I led her downstairs to the living room so we could talk. My dad had already arrived from his mission where he went to check for the moonstone, and by the look on his face, the moonstone was actually gone. “Did you find it?” I asked my dad who was sitting on the couch in the living room. I still wanted to be sure so I couldn’t help but ask. He gave a pitiful nod. “No.” “This is where you come in.” I turned to Katie who was standing and staring at us with a puzzled look on her face. “What?” She asked, confused. “I need you to do a locator spell to find the moonstone.” I gave her a pl
Noah~•~It was only a day before the Howling Gala. It always happened twice a year. And it was done a day or two after a full moon. Katie was meant to go with me to shop for a new dress but I had canceled with her because she refused to tell me what she went downstairs to talk about with Dimitri. According to her it was a secret and she was keeping it away from me to protect me. I didn’t need any protection from anybody. The previous night was tiring because it was a full moon and we spent most of the night shifting in the woods. I was meant to be resting but I was excited to shop for a new dress. For some weird reasons, I found shopping therapeutic. And I was going to be going with Aiden. I literally forced him to go with me since I didn’t want to do it alone. I needed a second opinion on whatever choice I made. It was already 11 in the morning but everywhere was still quiet. I went downstairs to make breakfast for anyone who cared to eat. I was bored and I wanted to use cook
Dimitri ~•~I asked Katie to meet me at the pack house so she would try doing the spell again. She repeated everything she did the other day and this time, it worked. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw where her blood was spotted on the map. “This can’t be. There must be a mistake, try it again.” I chuckled in disbelief when she said the moonstone was in Lenora Hills and there was nothing humorous about it. Frustrated, I punched the wall in the living room. Did that girl betray me? Becky was the only person I knew from that town. She was also the only one close enough to me to find out where the moonstone was kept.I didn’t want to jump to a conclusion yet. There had to be another explanation or something. She wouldn’t do something like that to me. She wouldn’t steal from me. “There isn’t a mistake,” Katie replied with a scoff. “You should probably give your girlfriend a call.” She knew Becky was from Lenora Hills. I had dumped Noah for Becky when my father and I returned from
Noah~•~I went into the changing room to try on the dress with the help of the worker. When I came out, Aiden had a worried and confused look on his face. “What’s the problem?” “They found the person who stole the moonstone.” “Moonstone? Huh?” I asked, confused. “Pack the dress and deliver it to the house.” He instructed the worker, then took my hands and led me outside to the car. “What moonstone?” I asked again as we settled into the car. “You know how Katie has been hiding something from you? It is about the moonstone someone stole. Plus, that’s the reason Uncle Zach and Caro’s mum died.” He explained. My eyes widened at his reply. “Why did you guys have to hide it from me?” “We didn’t want you to worry. We wanted to find it first before telling you about it.” “So who stole the moonstone?” I asked with a worried voice. He took a deep breath before responding in a low tone. “It was Becky, we’re not sure yet but Katie did a locator spell that found the moonstone at Lenora
