I notice a shadow jumping to the side as I turned to watch them walk away , which caught my attention immediately. I am now aware that something is off as I walk closer to the Flower shop looking at all the amazingly vibrant colours. Keeping an eye on who might be following me when I notice the beauty of a bundle of Orchids. They have me mesmerized as out of a sudden the Owner of the Shop hands me a few in a small Bunch. “Beautiful Flowers for a Beautiful Lady.” He smiles warmly at me as I gasp for air at the sight of them.
“Oh, but I have no money on me.” I gesture with my hands in the air as I feel overwhelmed.
“No need to pay. You made my Granddaughter an incredibly happy little Girl.” He hands me the Flowers.
“Thank you so much.” Feeling very much caught out that someone would even do that. Just handing me a Bunch of the most beautiful flowers for nothing but a little Chat.
I carry on to walk
I notice my neck burning, carefully running my fingers over the spot. Noticing that it is slightly wet and hot, like it’s on fire. My fingers are covered in blood, but it doesn’t feel like as if I am hurt, really odd, I could feel his mark on my neck and it makes me smile involuntarily.“Do you know what’s going on?” I ask shaking my head to make sure I got a clear mind.“No, I only know I am supposed to get back to the Castle.” He hastily walks in front of me but still checking that I am right behind him.He stops me and pushes me against the wall pressing his lips on mine. I grab on to his hair nearly dropping my flowers in my other hand as I just want to hold him tight. He starts to play with our tongues and kissing his way back towards my neck, where he licks over his mark.“Nearly healed already, this is my mark and soon I want to bear yours too.” He whispers in my ear before straighten himself an
No one has ever said these words to me before, not once did anyone pledge to me their love. I still feel the pain though, this feeling of disappointment that he is leaving. Leaving with her...I turn towards the Town. I will have to go speak to, what was his name again? Oh Yes… Joseph, I think it is. I need to get enough people to have people patrol the border, but in reality, I don’t need many in the castle as almost everyone will be gone. So probably one or two will cover the lot. I am a little concerned over the Rogues Liam mentioned. Somehow, I hope they aren’t trying their luck now half the Fighters are gone and almost all the Guards on top of it.Look at me making all these plans as every decision comes down to me now. Never had so much responsibility before but I need to proof to Liam that I can look after the castle while they are away. I casually walk towards the Town asking my way around who Joseph is and how I can find him. I am directed t
Next thing I know is the shadow jumping towards me, knocking me over. Shaking my head to clear my mind and refocus on the intruder. In an instant I am pushed aside before I get a chance to react. It’s a strong, golden coloured Wolf who is stood in front of me protecting me from anymore harm.“Stay back Zara.” He mind links me growling towards the shadows fletching his teeth. Out of the dark steps a light brown and tall wolf. With his head slightly lowered ready to attack. I can feel the tension between the two as the brown one starts to leap forwards. He stops himself in the last minute and takes steps backwards. His eyes widen as he glares in my direction, laying down on the ground, which is really not a thing you would do as Rogue in someone else’s territory. Slightly baffled by his behaviour I start wondering what he is trying to say. Maybe he is trying to tell us something.Feeling this pull towards the rogue Wolf, I budge past Noel who trie
We hung on to the castle and Pack for four days. Nothing else happened and we got a good routine with switching between day and night-time watch. I was up nights and Noel would do everything throughout the day once I handed over. Not once did we talk about what happened, nor did we talk about anything else. Really it was just anything related to how the day or night went. I came across a park, it looked like a parcourse, no one has mentioned it to me before, so it has me curious.This evening as he hands over the night shift, I look him in the eyes with a little glimmer in my eyes.“What is that parcourse thing? Why is no one using it?”“Oh, we are still using it, you just not had the chance to see it yet. Liam usually makes it a competition once a month we all start like a knockout event. One against another only the winner gets to the next round. You need to be really fit to get through it and fast on top of it. It’s fun, but you defini
I am getting goosebumps standing so close to him. “Well, you know…” before I can even finish my sentence, He comes that close our lips are almost touching. It’s confusing me that much I forgot what I was going to say. Feeling his breath on my skin as I stand as still as possible.“Don’t be afraid, I won’t bite you …much” he mind links me instead of talking. I don’t even dare to swallow in case I move. His eyes flickering from light blue to deep dark blue. I place my hands on his chest to be able to keep the distance between us, but do I really want to keep it that way? My heart skips a beat as Jackson jumps on my mind.“I am sorry, Noel. I just can’t.” my head drops down and I turn away. He doesn’t let me go easily as he quickly stands back in my way and I bump into him. He pulls me in close and this time he places his cherry red lips on mine. Not able to fight this feeling I just let
“You don’t need to believe what I have told you but, in more ways, than one I think it is what happened. The Alpha will have taken them to the small outside Mansion where the Pack originally started, He kept it as his Home away from Home. And now they left them there, in the hope they Bond and Gemma finds a way to break his loyalty to you. By the sound of things, she has succeeded. Don’t beat yourself up. Faron always gets what he wants, I stopped fighting it a long time ago.” His words are echoing through my mind… Faron always gets what he wants …The words are burning themselves into my mind as the feeling of treachery is trying to choke the last breath out of me. My head hangs low and heavy are my legs as I try to slowly walk back to the castle.“Don’t be like this Zara. There is a life after the Mate bond. Look at me, I lost my Mate and I am here still alive. Okay I will be the first to admit that it w
I don’t want to over think this but just for a moment I want to let go. Just enjoying the moment not thinking what will happen or was it meant to be. For once brushing off the pure pressure I constantly feel on my shoulders being the sensible young woman, always having to do the right thing. Running my hands through his hair as he is slightly shaken by the sudden change. Placing his hands on my hips slightly lifting me up as I look down on him and his blue eyes. A smile as I trail his lips with my finger making him shudder. Biting my lower lip as I put all the hesitation in the back of my mind. Just this one kiss, no regrets, no guilt, no strings, right? Before I even think twice our lips are touching. A longing Kiss filled with so many feelings, love, lust, desire even pain. No ordinary Kiss by any means, this is what wet dreams are made off, leaving me wanting more. Panting I make myself stop just to catch a breath. “You can’t imagine h
Being the Good friend that I am, I quickly shake it all off and run back to the Parkour, I want to cheer for Rasmus. Help him feel good, shout his name, okay maybe not as that might put him off like it did with Noel. Wanting to join in with the others, I really wonder why Fighters shouldn’t be able to enter too, I am sure there would be loads of them who would like this too. I noticed how nervous Rasmus is as he shakes out his hands. It is a lot of pressure on him, being the last one to compete against Liam. Miller shouts for them to get ready. “Ready, Set … go!” He shouts as loud as he can while Noel blows the whistle before joining me on the side to cheer. It turns out to be a very heated Race, where both of the contestants are very eager to win. Never even seen Liam get out of breath not even when He was leading the Jog the very first day I joined. Unusual. A very tough Race indeed. Watching them and everyone cheer on the side makes me smile. Such a
