ELIANA

Things were different between us now, but it hadn't been a fairytale. Even after all this time, I still felt a surge of protectiveness towards her that was both infuriating and undeniable.

It was as if my instincts had been hardwired to shield her from harm, no matter how much logic screamed otherwise.

The memories of it lingered, refusing to be extinguished by the passing of time or the complications that had grown between us.

Every glance, every word, every shared moment seemed to tug at the threads of a bond that neither of us fully understood.

And yet, despite the depth of these feelings, the reality was far from perfect. Life had a way of testing our resolve, of pushing us to confront the parts of our relationship that were fragile, frayed, or broken. Still, the protectiveness remained—a stubborn, maddening part of me that refused to let go.

If I ask you ‘if you were in my shoes what will you do?’ of course I know what your response will be.

If I were in your shoes, I'

    ELIANAI had a dream, the same scary old usual dream that haunted me for what felt like an eternity.

Every time I had this dream, it felt like a weight was crushing me, suffocating me, making it hard to breathe.In the dream, I'm walking through a desolate landscape, surrounded by nothing but darkness and shadows. Every step I take feels like a struggle, as if I'm wading through quicksand, sinking deeper with each passing moment. I try to run, but my legs feel heavy, as if they're weighed down by anchors. I'm trying to escape, but I don't know what I'm running from.The fear is palpable, it's like a living, breathing thing that's wrapped around me, squeezing tighter with every step.

    ELIANA"Okay, I should pack my clothes then," I said, trying to convey with my expression that he should give me some privacy and let me pack. However, Tom didn't take the hint. Instead, he just stood there, staring at me with an unwavering gaze that made me feel like he was waiting for something, or maybe even searching for something in my reaction. His eyes seemed to bore into me, making me feel uncomfortable and self-conscious. I shifted my weight, feeling a growing sense of unease under his intense scrutiny."You wouldn't be needing much, a uniform will be given to you," Tom said, his words dripping with an air of finality. My heart sank, drenched in disappointment and a sense of loss. But I steeled myself, refusing to let my emotions get the better of me. I reminded myself that this was still a better fate than being back at Herold's estate, a place that held nothing but pain and misery for me. I took a deep breath, trying to find solace in the fact that I was moving forward,

I stood panting, my chest heaving with exertion, and looked around, taking in my surroundings. The forest was quiet once more, the only sound the distant chirping of birds and the rustling of leaves in the wind. I turned to Tom, who was watching me with a mixture of concern and confusion etched on his face.His eyes narrowed slightly as he took in my disheveled appearance, and I knew I must have looked like a mess. My hair was tangled, and my clothes were torn and dirty from my frantic run through the forest. I tried to smooth out my hair, but it was a lost cause. Tom's expression softened, and he took a step closer to me, his eyes locked on mine.“Are you okay?”he asked, his voice low and gentle. I hesitated, unsure of how to answer. Was I okay?

    ELIANA"What are you doing?" he asked, his voice sharp with suspicion. I dropped what I was holding immediately, my heart racing as I tried to think of an explanation. My hands instinctively went to my sides, trying to appear nonchalant. "Just, uh, just looking around," I stammered, hoping my response seemed innocent enough. Axel's eyes narrowed, his gaze darting to the object that had fallen from my hands. I held my breath, praying that he wouldn't notice anything out of the ordinary.

    ELIANAThere was a loud knock on the door, interrupting me from the sleep I almost had, and I felt a jolt of surprise and irritation. The knock was insistent, demanding attention, and it seemed to shatter the fragile peacefulness of the moment. I had been drifting off, my eyelids growing heavy, my mind slowly unraveling the threads of consciousness. But the knock came, abrupt and unannounced, like a sudden storm on a calm sea. I groggily got up, my movements slow and reluctant, and made my way to the door, wondering who could be visiting at this hour. The knock came again, louder and more insistent, and I quickened my pace, my heart beating slightly faster in anticipation. Who could it be? A friend, a stranger, or perhaps someone with news? The possibilities swirled in my mind as I reached the door and hesitated for a moment, taking a deep breath before opening it to face whatever lay on the other side.

    ELIANA"Thank you very much," I said to her. She smiled and nodded, seeming to accept my gratitude. I felt a sense of appreciation for her willingness to share information with me, even if it was limited. The conversation had left me with more questions than answers, but I was determined to learn more. I stood up, and she followed suit, our eyes meeting in a brief moment of understanding. "I will go and freshen up now, I will meet you later," I said to her, and once again expressed my heartfelt gratitude for the delectable meal she had prepared, "and thank you for the extraordinary culinary experience, the flavors were sublime, the presentation was impeccable, and the warmth with which you served it was truly touching, I'm deeply appreciative of the effort and care you put into cooking such a wonderful meal, it's a pleasure to dine with someone as hospitable as yourself, and I look forward to reciprocating the kindness in the near future, thank you for the food, it was a treat for t

    ELIANA"Hey, Emily," Sarah greeted Emily with a warm smile. Emily's eyes flicked to Sarah, and she returned the greeting, but her gaze quickly snapped back to me. I could sense a mix of emotions crossing her face - surprise, curiosity, and maybe a hint of wariness. It was clear that she hadn't expected to see me here, and I wondered what she was thinking. Sarah seemed oblivious to the tension, chatting with Emily about her day and what she'd missed. I stood there, feeling a bit like a spectator, as Emily's eyes continued to dart between Sarah and me, her expression a mask of polite interest. But I knew that beneath the surface, she was probably wondering the same thing I was - what was going on, and what did it mean for us to be roommates?Emily smiled at Sarah. "Hi," Emily said, her greeting warm and friendly. But when I greeted her, she didn't respond to me. Instead, she seemed to freeze, her smile faltering for a moment as her eyes met mine.

    ELIANA"When is it?" I asked, my curiosity piqued as I leaned in slightly, eager to know the details of the alpha's annual ceremony and what it might entail, especially given the intrigue and importance surrounding such an event."Tonight," he replied, his voice low and smooth, the word hanging in the air like a promise or a warning, leaving me to wonder what the night would bring and what lay in store for me at the alpha's annual ceremony.Alphas and their Lunas were going to be present, I remembered always begging Gabriel to let me go along with him, to be a part of that world where power and prestige walked hand in hand. But he never agreed, always saying it wasn't important for me to be there, that my presence wouldn't add any value to the proceedings. The memory stung, a mixture of frustration and longing that I couldn't shake off. Why had he been so adamant about keeping me away? Was it truly because he thought I wouldn't be interested, or was there something more to it? The que

His words were laced with kindness, and his smile seemed genuine, but I couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to his sudden change than met the eye.It wasn't as if he was the same person who looked at me with rage in his eyes just a few days ago. The memory of that intense glare still lingered, making his current niceness feel like a carefully crafted facade, one that could shatter at any moment.I was certain of what I saw in his eyes - a depth of emotion that seemed almost raw, a flicker of something intense and unspoken that left me wondering what lay beneath his tough exterior, and whether I'd ever get to see the real him.It was warmth, it was soft and kind - a gentle contrast to t
