Ryan’s POV I listen to them for a while. It wasn’t hard, I didn’t even need to be close to the room. Their voices travelling along the hallway. They both squeal when I knock on the door. As I step in, Bea immediately gets to her feet and bows her head, something that I expected all my slaves to do. “Bea, your time with Aria is over. Leave!” Bea runs by me and I notice the plate of food on the table. It hadn’t been touched. I was concerned by the lack of food Aria was consuming lately. “Feel better?” I ask as I walk by her to the bathroom, deciding not to bring up the topic of food, she already hated me as it was. I’m surprised when she follows me, her face wrinkled up in annoyance. “You are really a hybrid?” “Yes” I turn back to the basin and remove my top. Taking a cloth, I wash my face and catch her reflection in the mirror. Her green eyes were darkening as she stared at me. Something that would only happen if she had her wolf. I knew I hadn’t imagined seeing her claws. “

Aria’s POV Sprinting back to my old room, I slam the door and somehow find the strength to push the wardrobe in front the door, barricading myself inside. He had killed my best friend! He had killed my best friend, all because he couldn’t sense that I was his mate! The scream tears through me as I finally let out all the anger I had been holding in. Ryan was a cruel man, a man that didn’t deserve to have a mate and yet it was getting harder and harder to fight the mate bond. I just didn’t know if I was coming or going anymore. Sitting on the end of the bed and jiggling my leg. I chew on a nail trying to figure out my next steps as I wait for the door handle to be tried. I was fully expecting Ryan to come back and whip me again. I had nowhere else to go, if I tried to run again, he would just come after me, dragging me back here. I couldn’t even cry, I was just so angry. Bea had done nothing wrong, she didn’t deserve to die. It was all because I kept a lie, refusing to let Ryan kn

Alpha Elijah’s POV I have been coming here everyday. Since that day I first saw her in the river. She was with another man and I was unable to tell if it was against her will or not, but as I sensed her fear today. I knew she was running to escape. I knew the day she shifted, I felt it, felt the instant connection with her. It was how I was able to link with her, to keep her motivated to run. To get her away from the Alpha of Crimson Pack. I didn’t even know her name, I just knew she was my mate. I watch as she slips, her midnight blue wolf tumbling into the river. Her wolf was identical to mine. Begging her to swim, I watch from my hidden spot as she desperately tries to get across to my side of the river. The man chasing her, he had others with him and now was not the time to reveal myself to Ryan. I just had to hope that she would listen to me. He stands at the edge of the cliff, looking down into the river, others join him and they growl as they see her appear on my side. T

Alpha Ryan’s POV “FUCK!” She had managed to get away and easily too. Aria had crossed over into another territory and of all territories, it was Midnight Pack. The Alpha of Midnight Pack was Elijah Wolfstone. Someone I had been in school with. I had hated him then and still hate him now. Though as an Alpha, he was just as aggressive as me. Aria didn’t stand a chance there, they would assume she is a Rogue and kill her. I had to get her back before that happened. Standing at the cliff edge, I almost jump. My men were asking me what we needed to do, but I didn’t have an answer. I didn’t know how big Midnight Pack was, I had no idea if our numbers were larger than his. I couldn’t believe that I had been so stupid, how could I have missed all the signs and to top it all her wolf was a complete surprise. “Alpha, are we in trouble?” one of my men ask “NO!” I snap, they had as much of an idea of Aria as I did and I had been sleeping next to her. “Fuck it, we are going!” I dive down
The Alpha’s Awakening Twenty one.
Aria’s POV Moments after he kissed me, he ushered me inside, no even giving me a chance to process what happened. He had kissed me hard, the length of his body pressing up against me as his hands hugged my hips. I didn’t reject the kiss, in fact quite the opposite and I wanted more. After he called me mate, he had hurried me inside. I had no idea what was going on and it is only as we reach the top of the stairs he announces that Ryan is here. They appear, surrounded by men, men that I hoped belonged to Elijah’s pack. As I look down, Ryan glances up at me, like he knew I was there. The windows were closed so I had no idea what they were saying. All I could see was the anger on Ryan’s face which seemed to be turning more and more red when he wasn’t getting what he wanted. Eventually, Ryan and his men are marched away, back in the direction that they came. As soon as they were out of sight, Elijah looked up at me with a smile. His onyx hair catching in the light of the moon. He doe

Alpha Elijah’s POV The house is quiet all night, a part of me expected that dickhead Ryan to come, another part of me hoped that Aria would need me in the night. I checked on her several times, each time she was fast asleep, curled up on her side. It was the early hours of the morning before I finally settled down. When I woke, the first thing I did was check on Aria. I was surprised to find her bed empty and made. Her scent was strong so she hadn’t left the room long. Following her delicious scent, I wander through the hallways. Almost making her jump when I find her looking confused. “Are you okay?” Her dark hair was tied back and I couldn’t help but look at her neck, her collarbone peeking out from under the baggy tee. I could easily make her mine. Her words bring me back to reality, snapping me from my thoughts. “Alpha Elijah, I was just trying to find my way.” She sounded slightly panicked, the pitch of her voice slightly higher. “Yeah, it’s a big house. I promise I will gi

Alpha Ryan’s POV How could I have been so stupid? Why the fuck did I even listen and agree to Seren’s plan? None of this would have happened if she hadn't come to me in the first place. Anton stares at me as I finish tearing up the office. “Bring your fucking mate in!” “What has she done this time Alpha?” “Just bring her to me unless you want your head ripped off.” He rushed from the room and I hear him calling her name. Why did I listen to her? Seren had been the one to tell me of Aria’s true heritage. She was just like me, half wolf, half vampire. A hybrid. We were rare, many calling us abominations. We shouldn’t have existed. Aria would be my only way to carry an heir, to create more of our kind. Seren had found out what Aria was after her father got drunk one night. He finally came clean, admitting that Aria was adopted, taken in by their mother because she couldn’t bear to kill a child. They were lucky, Aria had looked just like their eldest child Kyle and Seren was y

Aria’s POV The last comment threw Elijah completely. It was not what he was expecting me to say. “You shifted at the Moon Ball? Did you know about this?”Elijah turns to look at Simon who is holding his hands up and shaking his head. “Aria, you could have just killed him!” Simon almost yells I shake my head at him. “That’s the thing, I couldn’t. I was so weak, so exhausted from the shift that I could do nothing.” Elijah reaches out across the desk, taking my hand in his and glaring at Simon. “First shift is always the hardest. If I remember correctly Simon, you wept like a baby!” Simon looks everywhere around the room, but at either of us. Though I could barely take my eyes off Elijah’s. Combined with the electric sparks of his touch, it was almost like I forgot that Simon was in the room. “Do you feel better now? Got something off your mind?” Elijah asks, the smile remaining in place as he stands. I nod my head at him and he leads us out of the office, down the stairs and out
