Silence

Liyah's POV

I was still trying to make sure my seatbelt was secured when he zoomed off. I turned to face him when he continued to increase his speed rather than do the opposite, and I could see the anger in his eyes as he stepped harder on the gas. My stomach churned and I held on for dear life. 

I was scared to death when he suddenly hit the brakes, bringing the car to a stop with a deafening screeching sound. I turned to him in shock wondering what had come over him, but when I saw him stoic and his face expressionless, I kept my mouth shut.

He sat hunched over, and I could see the veins on the back of his hand bulge as he clutched the steering wheel. Minutes passed and not a word was spoken. The silence was almost deafening and all I could hear was the rapid pounding of my heart.

• The Alpha's Dark Revenge   Painful

  Liyah's POVI wasn't completely sure why my head was aching so much. I knew I had been tired and overwhelmed more times than I could count, but it felt different this time. It felt... worse. After everything that had happened in the car, I had begun to see things differently, understand things I didn't before. It all made sense now. Why Drew was still so protective of him although they had become distant, why Nikolai was always so bitter. It didn't change the fact that I was still hurt, but it did make me see things from a different perspective.I hated the fact that I understood now. I didn't want to, I wanted to blame someone for everything that happened to me. I wanted to feel that pure hatred when I looked at him, and revel in it. But now... I couldn't even identify what exactly I was feeling. Sadness, anger, pity, confusion, all jumbled up in my heart. It was so overwhelming I th

• The Alpha's Dark Revenge   Something was off

  Nikolai's POVSomething was off. I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was definitely up. I knew that there were wolf people who never transformed their entire life, but in most cases it was either the result of a wolfman and a human mating, or vice versa. And Liyah was a purebreed, from purebreed parents, so that wasn't even remotely possible. The only other situation for such an occurrence was when a spell was cast on the werewolf in question. But I wouldn't even be considering that because as far as I knew, witchcraft was forbidden. I opened the refrigerator to kill time as I thought of what to do. From what she had told me tonight, she had been put to work at a young age. So my hunch was that her wolf was not yet mature because she hadn't had the time to develop. That could be helped. But she needed time. Lots of it.A soft gasp made me look up and I stared at Liyah's startled form. "Uhh, I'm sorry I didn't expect to run into anyone," She blurted, clearing her throat a

• The Alpha's Dark Revenge   See you tomorrow

  Liyah's POVI jumped up from my bed as soon as my alarm rang. I had been awake for about an hour already and was just waiting patiently for an excuse to get out of bed. The possibility that I might have a wolf was enough to keep me permanently excited. As soon as I was done getting ready for the day, I unzipped the suitcase Margaret had gotten me to find something suitable to wear. I paused in the middle of ransacking the suitcase. What was I even supposed to wear for a session on self-defence? I've never had any sort of training, so what? I thought of asking Margaret for help but it was too early to go see her, so I decided on a pair of stretchy jeans, a tank top, and sneakers.When I felt ready, I tied my hair to the back and made my way to the training ground. He had told me to be there by 7am and I was already ten minutes late. I couldn't help but feel very nervous.I immediately saw him unpacking some equipment from a bag when I arrived. Watching him made me realize what training

• The Alpha's Dark Revenge   Worth it

  Nikolai's POVI was at the training ground earlier than the last time. After I had spent about twenty minutes and there was still no sign of Liyah, I began to wonder if she would come today. I wouldn't be surprised if she eventually didn't, I would understand why. She was still trying to heal, and if being around me was getting in the way of that then it was probably best to stay away. As I lowered myself onto a large log of wood, my thoughts drifted to the events of yesterday. It was shocking to see her lash out the way she did. And one thing I was completely sure of was that, as I watched her chide me and put me in my place yesterday, I knew that I never wanted her to let anyone push her around the way I had.And she left me in shock everytime we spoke. After everything I had done, she still wanted me to realize that it all hadn't been entirely my fault. What person on earth would do that? Who would apologize to you for your pain after you hurt them over and over again? She was suc

• The Alpha's Dark Revenge   Shh

  Nikolai's POVI tried not to feel impatient as I waited for them to arrive. It had been nearly ten minutes since I summoned them but still there was no sign of them. I began to wonder if I was actually impatient or just nervous.Over the past few days, I had seen Drew give me questioning glances whenever he saw me training Liyah, but he never asked about it. I always knew that things weren't perfect with my pack, but I never truly got past my anger enough to see just how bad I had been neglecting them, especially Annalise and Drew. They were more than just my pack members. They were my friends...my family. I already knew they had been hurting, but I never cared. I was just too invested on getting my revenge. Now that everything had turned out the way it did, I began to see just how deep the wound was. I was distracted by the sound of my bedroom door opening. Drew walked in, Annie right behind him. They bowed shortly before facing me. "You wanted to see us?" Drew queried, his voice

• The Alpha's Dark Revenge   For Eve

  Nikolai's POVAs soon as the conference meeting ended, I quickly turned off the computer and tugged on the combat boots that were already laid out in front of my bed. As soon as I was done throwing my clothes on, I walked down to the training ground as quickly as I could. I sighted her as soon as I approached, seated comfortably astride a log of wood. I felt the duffel bag I had come with slip from my fingers as I tried my hardest not to gape at her. When she stood to face me, my lungs emptied of all the air intact. She had complained about the jeans and T-shirt she wore slowing her down, so I had asked her to see Annalise for a change of outfits. She needed to be as comfortable as possible in order to get to her full potential. But I definitely hadn't been expecting this. She was clad in a stretchy, black leather bodysuit; completing the attire with a pair of black boots, and her hair tied up in a ponytail. Dressed like this she looked... tough, and absolutely breathtaking. Remindi

• The Alpha's Dark Revenge   I really did

  Liyah's POVThe smile dropped from my face as soon as I was safe inside my room. My hands slowly came up to clutch my shoulders as the memory of the last ten minutes started to replay in my head.What the hell just happened?I wondered if I had only be dreaming or if I actually caught Nikolai studying my face... staring at me, actually. If I didn't know better I would've said he was checking me out. And I was so clumsy and awkward as as usual that I hadn't realized we stood that close when I looked up. I felt myself reeling when I realized that it would take just one small motion to have our lips touching. For some reason, the memory of the time when we had kissed at one of his business events came to mind, and my heart began to thump louder in my chest. I couldn't understand the way I had felt. It was both annoying and confusing. When I saw his gaze move to my lips, I couldn't understand the goosebumps that quickly formed on my skin. Instead of the usual fear and anxiety I had alwa

• The Alpha's Dark Revenge   So close

  Liyah's POVAlthough Eve had requested to have more adults at her party for the adorable reason that they were "much better conversation" than kids her age, Nikolai had made sure that a good number of kids had turned up. He did this tactfully by inviting the kids of his business partners and friends, so there were equal numbers of both adults and kids. He explained to her that the adults would not be comfortable leaving their kids home alone. Eve had felt bad enough that she began to engage them in conversation. And before long, she was enjoying the company. It was adorable to watch, as I always wanted her to interact more with kids her age. "Enjoying the party?" I looked up to see a smiling Drew. He was clad in a navy blue suit and held a glass of champagne in his hand. I had seen the eyes of ladies all over the room follow him. It wasn't much of a surprise as he was simply gorgeous, next to none at the party. Well except the host...My cheeks warmed at the thought of Nikolai. In a
