LOGINCrystal’s POV I was taken aback. For a few seconds I was speechless. I opened my mouth expecting no sound to come out but I was wrong. "Was?" I was offended and it clearly showed. Tristan chuckled. "What's so funny?" I whined. "Why did you change your mind?" After the year Tristan and
I learnt as much as I could about leading the pack. I still didn't know how Tristan did it. I had barely just graduated high school and all these people looked at me waiting for guidance and protection. It was daunting and nerve racking but I tried my best. The AAP training helped too. I was g
Crystal’s POV (One year later) I learnt to speak in silence. At least around Tristan. When he got too quiet, I knew it was time to get him to a place of isolation where he could sit in his grief without the whole world watching him. I could tell the pack wasn't the same and though our loss
Roman still hadn't returned and I could tell Crystal was worried even though she didn't voice it out. Probably worried about what I might think. But I guess seeing as to how Roman had helped us both escape, maybe I could try to overlook my intense dislike for the guy. Meggy had gotten up sayin

But I cared what she did. She had accepted me from the beginning. Halfling and all. She had vouched and rooted for me. It's only now that I realised I had been very wrong in not giving her of all people an explanation. "I didn't realise how much I did love Tristan. I don't know, maybe it was becau
I couldn't hide my shock upon seeing her. I quickly scrambled to my feet. I knew that Bridget had ordered her transfer back to the manor for safety reasons but I guess I hadn't expected her to seek me out. I didn't know where I stood with Lady Melrose since the night of the ball when it was revea
"Arg!" I yelled in frustration before getting to my feet. I ran my a hand through my hair as I started pacing. "She failed. Again." Bridget spoke sounding extremely unimpressed. She sat on a chair on the other side of Tristan's room. Jasmine stood beside her watching me. She had a slight frown o
Someone who was supposed to be my mate. I know we weren't together and I definitely didn't know how the mating bond was even decided by nature or whatever. But still, I felt responsible for it. Especially since I believed the only reason Roman was getting this treatment was because of me. "Well i
