Chapter 6.~Elena POV I stirred in my sleep and twined as I felt an intense pain coming from my limbs.I sensed my environment was quite different from the one I had grown used to. The flat mattress thrown on the concrete floor of my room I descended to after work was covered with a linen sheet given to me by my mom. My eyes still shut, I felt the fluffy of the duvet lying underneath me caressing my skin, the comfort I felt with my head even when it was followed by a throbbing pain.The effect of the chandelier hanging above me, shimmering and illuminating the whole room forced me to shut my eyes back instantly. I managed to open it.“Am I in heaven now? With mom?” Afraid to confront my suspense, I chose to leave it shot waiting for any sounds or footsteps.“It's okay, you can open them. I don't bite you know”I froze at the sudden interruption of Liam's familiar voice; I forced my eyes wide open, standing up on my butt. Forgetting I was in pain, the aches that came with the action
Chapter 7.Elena POV I have spent two days and I could feel my energy restoring. When Liam wasn't around , Ethan allowed me to do some chores but with Liam he hardly allowed me to walk through the stairs.His unusual silence raised an alarm creating an eerie environment for me.The maid had delivered my clothes cleared of any dirt.I was adjusting my dress when Liam barged in. I gasped in awe while throwing a killing glare but he only put in his neutral expression laced with unfathomable emotions.“You are leaving!? Are you feeling much better now?” “So you can talk like a normal person now?” I mumbled, venting my frustration on the piece of clothes I was arranging, not giving a damn if he could hear me or not.“Okay! I will wait for you downstairs” he declared before disappearing through the door....I got downstairs only to meet Ethan, his head buried in the piles of books exuding a business tycoon aura.“Hey, Ethan” I called his attention, dragging my feet towards me. I leaned
Chapter 8.~Liam's~Jealousy surged in me morphing into rage stewing in me anytime I saw her smiling, I noticed she felt so free and comfortable with Ethan than with me. She barely recognized my presence anytime she was with Ethan.She should let her focus be on me, I brought her here and to cover it all she knew me before Ethan.I was proud of her wolf, the protective instinct which really has helped out made me feel less angrier at myself.I hated the fact that Mom had to be entangled in all this.We were both lost in our thoughts, looming around me with her anxiousness and nervousness. I knew she had a lot of questions to ask and yet she couldn't break through the barrier.Shattering the restraint, breaking through the invisible ice formed around us, I initiated the conversation and I felt so glad she took the bait and carved it Into an opportunity.I couldn't give the road full concentration. Restraining myself from tasting those lips again, the plumpy love kiss lips that wouldn't
CHAPTER 9.Elena'sI felt the chill breeze slipping into the layers of my skin, the excitement that awoke with the news, and the money I spent with Liam extinguished with the cold breeze, leaving behind the remnant of dejection I discerned.Fear crawled through my skin, sending goosebumps through my spine. The hours I spent with Liam and Ethan, minute yet significant, washed away my worries and my predicament, losing to the span of time until this moment.I stood firmly in the same position Liam had dropped me, tick-tock of the school wall clock moving its tongue clockwise and anticlockwise, each second being counted and continuing, sending a shiver through me. Different questions I couldn't bear to admit flooded my mind.I knew anytime soon that the time for the morning session would be called when we were all meant to be in class.I tried to trail back through lanes of memories of how everything unfolded. So funny how I decided to divert my attention to it now; the memories I found
CHAPTER 10.Liam's.I vented my frustration on the steering I held, my gripped tightly clasped around it while my knuckles almost turned white.I headed straight to my apartment after dropping off Isabella, I needed to let out some steam. I couldn't contain the anger stewing in me; her heart shattered in pieces reflecting through the tears she tried to muster, she tried to hide it from me yet her eyes couldn't take up the hurt and escape, relishing a drop.Every little of her actions was like a knife piercing through my heart but I had no choice. I had my mind made up and ready to bear the consequences the moment I set off on the rail of my plan- what needed to be had to be, that was the only plan I had in mind and it's either it or I let my dad win.“How does it go?”My countenance bore the burden and pain of seeing her in tears, the way her face screwed up in disappointment, the sudden changes of her emotion from disappointment to expectations…..it killed me from inside.“Yeah, it t
Elena's I woke up feeling a little bit tipsy and a slight headache setting in. I checked around as the dim light I woke up into suddenly became intense.I don't have to be told to know where I was- the same room I was when I was with Liam.“Liam-”I widened my eyes immediately and realized who might be here with me. I checked only to meet up with the orderly arrangement of things, it was exactly thesame way I left it. I felt astonished when I noticed the pairs of shorts and the baggy top that was covered in Liam's scent. Instinctively, I sniffed it more, dwelling in his incense.I jumped back into the bed when I heard footsteps approaching and I could catch on the scent as well which was weird-the sharpening senses including claw- hadn't been my thing since my wolf wasn't showing up.My lips crept in a smile underneath the duvet I covered myself in as the thought of my wolf crossed my mind.The doorknob twisted open, I heard the footsteps moving closer to my front since I had my bac
Elara's Ethan, hell bent on averting my gaze.His expression sending in the signal I had refused to decode.The reality of acceptance hit me like a wave and now that means the lady I saw in my blurry vision could either be Isabella or who.I was sedated and that explained why I couldn't remember anything until the moment everything came striking me like a lightening.My countenance fell as I stared at Ethan's back view, he seemed concerned and a little bit down, the emotions he wore was something I couldn't fathom.Awkward silence felt across the room and no matter how much I asked my questions, it seemed to meet the wall of the silence emitting null.Forgot my modesty, I dragged myself out of the bed, rushed outside and here he stood, his hands well tucked inside his pants, his head hung low in, disappointed etched in his countenance.I knew he could feel my presence but he was looking up to my face; I was caught between jumping onto him and hanging so badly and lashing at him.

Liam's The intense scent she carried, the way she leaned towards me seeking warmth, the protection her wolf knew I could only give.Ethan couldn't convince me enough not to go to that site, I knew there should be something -hint, proof….. Anything that could lead me to them. I knew, for them to have dropped her, they were obviously up to something.I had Ethan stay with her in the house while I ran off to the same site I saw her that night. It took Ethan some time to give in. “She needed you now, and she would love to find you by her side if she wakes up,” Ethan had said in his defense, but I couldn't give in. The guilt carved on my heart couldn't let me, I had yet to justify the expression I wore while I still had the guts to lock gaze with her.My mind was preoccupied with what could be there, the last research triggered the obsessiveness and my wolf protective nature. She was born into this; it is her battle, and if she really wants to be who she was meant to be, she has to fight
Chapter 14.Liam's My dad's voice came in like a resonance, setting my insides into turmoil. Since that time I turned him down on his plan, our resolute relationship of Father and son had degraded to a relationship between cat and mouse, and Mom is not helping the matter.“Don't do anything foolish son, my authority and order still carry the power I hold as an Alpha, and not even my son would be giving the privilege to ruin things.”“I don't know what you're talking about, Dad, but I still remain in my stance. There are better ways to get those valuable items without shedding blood!”Xavier closed up the distance between him and me, leaned forward….“Choose your side wisely!”He whispered, his phrases brief yet huge, unleashing the fury simmering just beneath my facade. I forced myself to regain composure, refusing to let him dominate my feelings, though my anger hovered around me.I stormed out, the door bearing the impact. I marched onto my car without following my intended plan of
