Sixty Days Of Fire

A smile spread across my face as I closed my eyes and blew out the candles."Happy eighteenth birthday, my love!" My boyfriend Noah cheered"Thank you," I said, opening my eyes to him."What did you wish for?" asked."You know I can’t wish and tell," I teased. He rolled his eyes in that casual way that always made me melt. I laughed softly. "Okay, fine. I won’t say it all, but… I wished that we’d become mates."His smile matched mine. Being mated to Noah was everything we both wanted. After a year together, we’d been hoping for this moment—and today was the day I’d finally find out. The day I’ll finally be his mate. "Do you sense anything yet?" He asked, his voice full of hope."Not yet," I sighed heavily "It’ll happen. Don’t worry," He said, squeezing my hand.Then he kissed my knuckles and pulled a box from behind his back. "For your birthday and for us, soon-to-be mates, I got you this."My eyes widened. "You got me another present?""Of course. The cake doesn’t count. This is t

I didn’t end up meeting Noah that night. I couldn’t bear to look him in the eyes and tell him that I had accepted Alpha Jacob as my mate.There was no explanation that would make him believe it. No words could make this right. I still felt like I was losing my mind over it. Noah had proposed to me, and now here I was—bound to a man known for his cruelty, a man feared by everyone, and somehow… my mate.Alpha Jacob’s palace gate swung open, revealing the view of the castle. As the driver drove in, I took in my view, starting with the front garden and then the waterfall. The palace is intimidating, tall gates, guards everywhere, and walls that scream “you’re trapped.”The driver pulled the car to a stop in front of the mansion. Alpha Jacob stepped out and I did too. He placed his hand on my waist and I quickly tugged it away. He growled silently as if trying to tell me I belong to him. As we walked up the stairs, he leaned in and whispered "From this moment on, this is your home.""For

I paused for a moment, unsure whether to speak or wait for Jacob to speak. He looked really upset and it made me wonder if he heard the conversation but again Jacob always looks upset. Maybe he didn’t hear a thing, maybe he’s just upset that I was here and not in the room like I’m supposed to be. As my mind pounder with thoughts I was unsure off, Noah swooped in "There you have it Luna. He’s here." I turned my attention to Noah, slightly confused but then realized that he was trying to air the moment so Jacob won’t suspect a thing.Though, it’s shocking. This is the first time Noah has tried to eradicate a situation like this. I guess he’s scared of Jacob but why though? He’s just a man. Jacob didn’t bother saying a thing, he just held my hand and walked me out of the training room. "Were you looking for me?""Yeah, I didn’t see you when I woke so I was just wondering, nothing much," I said casually He looked at me as if he knew I was lying and just scoffed. "I don’t trust you bu

My eyes moved from Dominic to Jacob as I took a bite out of my food.We were having lunch, and the silence was heavy. Dominic wore his usual smirk, but unlike before, it made me uneasy, almost as if he knew something. Maybe something about me and Noah.I had noticed the way he looked at us when he saw us together in the study room. It was almost like he suspected something, but I wouldn’t give him a reason to. It was already bad enough that I had dragged Noah into my mess. The last thing I wanted was for him to get into trouble because of me.I know that if Jacob or Dominic finds out anything about my past relationship with Noah, they won’t spare him. "You want more salad, Luna?" Dominic asked, breaking the silence. "I see you’re almost done with yours." He flashed me a smile as if trying to ease my racing heart"Yeah… umm… I’ll have a little," I said.He smirked and reached to serve me, but Jacob quickly stepped in. "I can do that for her." He snatched the serving spoon from Dominic

It’s the second day in the Alpha’s house and I can’t help extremely exhausted by everything.Throughout last night, I was unable to sleep, Jacob’s words kept replaying in my head over and over again. “You’re not her. You can’t be her”But who is she? And why was he acting that way?I’ve tried to make sense of it but I’m unable to. All I know is that Jacob is up to something and I have to find out what it is. My thoughts came to a halt when I heard a knock on the door, I called out “Come in” The door was pushed open and Noah walked in.His eyes softened as they met mine. "Are you okay?" He asked quickly rushing towards me and cupping my face "Yeah.""He hurt you last night didn’t he?" He pressed furtherI quietly shook my head "No.""I can see he did Osline." His voice softened then suddenly raised "I hate that man! I just hate him.""Noah it’s fine," I said not wanting any trouble "No, it’s not. He married you, he’s supposed to protect you, not hurt you.""Noah it’s fine," I repea
