Chapter 17.Darren's POV.She followed me upstairs, her hands shivering, the blackout we had one minute ago, as she stepped into the corridor, I stilled immediately.The scent I felt on her earlier became slightly familiar, yet I couldn't quite place who had this scent, but I knew it was from someone in my pack.Turning to face her, my wolf bared its teeth immediately. I realized the cut on her face, the faint mark on her neck, and her sweatpants were torn, it was a little bloodied.I couldn't believe that I didn't notice this earlier, I was too focused on my anger and the way she replied that I didn't even notice that she was hurt.She raised her head and paused fidgeting when she realized I was staring.If I thought I was upset when they talked about killing her, I wasn't ready for the new wave of anger that hit me, that someone dared to hurt her.My wolf bared it's teeth, howling and growling, prancing around, wanting to come out, I held it with all my strength, it was fucking hard
Chapter 18.Darren's POV.I paced around the torture room,going back and forth from the door, to the windows, the chairs, Dean swallowed looking at me nervously, Karl just sighed but he was nervous as well, I could smell the nervousness coming off from them, it made me amused but not surprised that I still made even those close to me nervous."Stop pacing it's making us dizzy." Karl said and I scoffed, I kept pacing,waiting patiently for him. It's been over 30 minutes since Dean called him and he wasn't here yet. I smirked when I imagined all the things I would do to him, it still won't be enough for me."Calm down, okay I'm sure he is doing something, he will be here soon." Karl said."I am calm." I replied by tapping the iron bars on the door.It amused that he was doing something to make me more angry, I was always ready, my wolf was always ready to take away a life again, we reveled in it, we enjoyed doing it, it was part of us, crafted in our system, we live for it, and I'm going
Chapter 19.Darren's POV.He eyed me and I smiled, “I want to feel bad for you, but yet I won’t, you don’t deserve my mercy or pity.”I walked closer to him, and Karl held me, “You don’t have to do this alpha, I’ll do it, he deserves it.” Karl said.“And rid me of the satisfaction?” I asked and he shook his head, he dragged Dean away with him, they’ve both seen me kill before, it wasn’t new.“You’re doing this for that rogue slut that is your mate?” he dared to ask and l smiled, I could smell his fear, and my wolf kept wanting to come out, I knew that if I let him out, he’ll destroy Josh without thinking.“It’s about time you died, I’m tired of seeing your face.” I said and he gasped as I released my claws, I held his neck upset that I’ll give him a much quicker death than I wanted to.I pressed his neck loving the feel of watching him struggle to breathe, he struggled, his eyes wide trying to claw at me but I made him immobile and he couldn’t do anything but try to breathe, I watch i
Chapter 20.Darren's POV.I marched down the stairs to the meeting room. I was angry, tired and irritated that I have to attend a meeting and talk about Josh, and Laura again.I wonder what those power hungry and irritating oldies wanted, but it was annoying me at this point. I had to meet them and somehow pacify them. Elders were needed in every pack, while they didn't do much for me, I needed them.I walked around the corner colliding with the tree, I was so stressed and I was busy thinking, I didn't even realize the tree was there.I groaned in pain, glaring hard at the tree, "don't take it out on the poor tree." Karl said and I sighed, turning to glare at him."Don't take it out on me either." He added, raising his hands up, I sighed, scratching my forehead.Thinking of the meeting was making me pissed, I wondered what the idiot spreaded before dying and what they would say this time.They already suggested I kill Laura even after telling them she was my mate, it was so annoying t
Chapter 21.Laura's POV.I woke up yawning loudly, I searched the room for him, and I didn't find him. I wondered if he was in the bathroom. I stood up wincing as I felt a slight headache. I wondered what was making me feel weird and weak.My wolf was awfully quiet and I knew it was one of those days where I didn't have the energy to do anything but sit around and eat or read, I didn't have that freedom in my former pack but I knew I had it here, I couldn't wait to explore his library again, it was one of my best place.I went into the bathroom taking a bath. I sighed as I soaked myself in the bathtub. It felt so good. I added the new essentials he got for me.I was happy and amazed by how thoughtful he is, he did little things that he didn't know that mattered a lot to me.He said he wasn't used to the mate thing, but he was doing well so far, and I liked it. The way he made me sleep even after waking me up. Even though he left, I could somehow feel his presence. It was very comfortin
Chapter 22.Laura's POV.I was scared when I entered the cafeteria, it felt like the world stopped and suddenly all eyes were on me.Holding my head high didn't stop me from being nervous, I gripped my hands tightly, I turned to Dean who just smiled, it felt like he was used to this, but I wasn't, I was so terrified, my wolf was alert, and restless, we didn't like the attention in anyway.What made it worse was the way Dean walked ahead, and I had to join him passing everyone and receiving their stares. It was very unnerving. I wanted to turn away and run, but I knew that'd be more embarrassing, they would realize how weak I am.I swallowed the following Dean. I didn't know where he wanted to sit, but all I wanted now was to just sit down and pretend they didn't just stop eating and stare at me like I was the moon goddess visiting the pack.I heaved a sigh of relief when Dean stopped at the table he wished to seat, it was at the top, close to where the food was.I could see the server
Chapter 23.Laura's POV.I stared at Dean when he said that and shook my head."You're attracting other males, I don't think the alpha would be happy to know that, though he'll pity you for being his nephew." Karl said and I laughed."I think he'll understand that all Dean has for me is admiration." I said and Dean nodded with a smile."Oh wow, then I should probably confess, I admire you too." Karl said and I laughed, almost dumping all the sauce on my body."I'm serious, at first I didn't like you, as a rogue." He paused, dropping his spoon."But after talking to you for a while, it made me attracted to you, and yes I have a mate." He said and I laughed."Oh yeah, you do?" I was surprised he had one."Yeah, I do, and I love her, I don't like stressing her out, she didn't feel like eating today." He added and I nodded hoping to see her soon."He's not still back?" Dean asked Karl and he nodded."You know his wolf is, he needs to run around to make it calm." Karl said."Speaking of th
Chapter 24.Darren's POV.The run I had earlier didn't make my wolf calm in any way, I was still upset about what the elders did, it irritated me and mostly my wolf because I didn't kill one of them, I still needed my elders."You should have killed at least five of them." My wolf growled."Yeah, and what will the result be?" I asked."I want to be an alpha that is not only feared but respected." I added."And did they respect you?" My wolf asked and I rolled my eyes."They did or they won't call me before doing what they want." I argued."And that's okay, I've told them how I feel." I said."Then stop being upset." My wolf said."You're making me upset and I found it irritating." I said.I wondered where Laura was. I couldn't find her in the room. I hoped she wasn't hurt. My wolf wasn't alerted, so I assumed she was fine. I just needed to see her beautiful face. I know that's the only thing that would calm me down.My wolf nodded agreeing with me and I rolled my eyes. I thought of wh
