VIOLETMy head and body ached so badly. What happened to me? I wondered as I slowly opened my eyes. White walls surrounded me, and the smell of antiseptic filled my nose. I was in the hospital.My mother, who was beside my bedside, became alert when she saw me. “Oh, thank goodness!” she beamed. “How do you feel now?”“What happe—” Before I could complete my statement, memories of what happened flooded my mind. I went into severe heat and fainted.But why would I faint from heat?Moments later, the door opened and the doctor walked in; my dad followed.“How are you?” my father asked immediately, pretending as if he cared when he didn’t give a damn about me.“I don’t know,” I responded honestly.The doctor checked my vitals on the machine connected to me before looking at me.“Can you still feel the heat?” he asked me.“No,” I responded.He nodded. “That’s because we have given you something that helped with it.”“Is she okay now?” Father quickly asked him.“For now,” the doctor said.
VIOLET Beep.A notification came in, and I picked up my phone to check it. I had been using one of my mom’s old phones since I couldn’t find mine. I had logged into my email on the phone. The new email sent was from the academy.“Dear Miss Violet, We are delighted to announce to you that the school will be reopening on May 13th. We at the Equinox Academy will be expecting you then. Yours faithfully, Alpha Richard.”Excitement washed over me after reading the content of the email. I could finally return to school! I could finally be with Axel again!I had been feeling too lazy to even get up from my bed before, but upon seeing such good news, a flood of energy washed over me. Without hesitation, I jumped out of bed and rushed to my father’s office where I suspected he would be.He was there.“Dad!” I beamed as I approached him.I had not genuinely smiled at him since I returned to the pack, but right now, I couldn’t control my happiness.He dropped what he was doing immediately a
AXELIt’s been two weeks since Chloe disappeared, and she had not been found despite our desperate attempts to locate her. Aunt Amelia even performed a location spell, as she did with the other missing girls, but it was as if the girl never existed. It was really heartbreaking to see the parents of those innocent girls mourn their kids.A lot had happened within the two weeks. Daisy had gone to the witches’ land, as her mother wanted her there for some reason. So, that meant I couldn’t go back to see Violet. I missed her so much. I couldn’t wait to have her in my arms again. I would try with everything in me to make sure we were back together again.I had spent those two weeks training with my dad and looking after Indie. She was recovering beautifully. She could talk now, though she could barely complete a sentence without wincing in pain. I was just glad that she regained her talking abilities and didn’t become mute forever as a result of the injury.She would be discharged today,
AXELRage boiled through my veins. Everything within me was screaming at me to go and attack Silas, but Daisy kept holding me back. I had missed Violet so much and had been longing to be with her again. But just when I got to hold her, Silas had to come and mess it up.He said we would only ever be together over his dead body. Then so be it! I was never going to let Violet go. If I let her go, then I’d only be letting myself go because she was part of me. And that would never happen.“Axel, we have to go now,” Daisy panicked through the mind-link as he started slashing through the air. She clutched my arm, opening her eyes wide.“No. I can’t leave Violet here like this,” I groaned.“He will not hurt his daughter. But if he gets to us, that sword will kill us,” she responded, and before I could reply, she cast the teleportation spell, taking us back to the North. We landed in the woods.“Why?” I growled. “Why did you bring us back!”“Axel, the last thing we want is to die in the South
VIOLETRage saturated my father’s face as he stepped closer to me. “Where is who?” he growled.My body ran cold, and I scratched the back of my neck nervously. “Uhm... no one.”“Do not lie to me, Violet!” he growled. “That witch is here, right? She is cloaked. I knew it! I felt a foreign presence, and I suspected that. That was why I stayed back, making you believe I had left.”“Stop being paranoid. There is no one here.” I tried to wave him off as I drew the duvet over my head and lay on the bed.“You are lying!” he snarled. “Do not fucking lie to me, Violet. Is she also here with that northern bastard?”“He is not a bastard,” I said under my breath.“You know, I noticed the mark on your neck, but I refused to say anything. But I am going to speak now. You will never be with that northern bastard. Over my dead body!” he growled with so much rage that I shuddered.“Why?” I challenged as I sat up, my gaze fixed on him. “He is my mate. My fated mate. Do you not understand that? Do you
VIOLETI missed Axel so much. I wished I could see him right now and be in his arms, but that was impossible. There was no way I could leave here and go to the North. My father would never allow that. He would kill me.The only option I had was for Indie to teleport me out of here, but I didn’t have her number offhand, talk more of calling her. I’m just here, slowly going into depression. I only eat, sleep, and talk to my mom. Same routine since I was brought back to this pack.I missed my mate so much. I was feeling better already, but I didn’t have the zeal to even leave this room. Nothing out there interested me. I just wanted to be here and wallow in my loneliness.I had just finished eating, and the maid assigned to me had taken the plate away. The next thing to do was to sleep. I thought about Axel every minute of the day. I wondered how he was doing.Has his wound and burns healed? Did he miss me too? Different thoughts kept coursing through my mind until I finally drifted off
