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
Alpha Elijah’s POV Okay, I’m not going to lie, it was a bit unexpected but I just couldn’t keep my hands off of her, not for any longer. She was mine and I wanted her to know it. Aria is quiet, she watches me with a slight smile, and her green eyes are bright. Taking the dress from Simon, I hold it out to Aria, asking if she needs any help. “I think I can manage, but maybe you should stay, just in case.” Her cheeks flush from the comment. She doesn’t wait for an answer, turning around and slipping off her top. Faint red lines trail all across her back, like she hadn’t healed properly from something. I see her reflection in the mirror, she seems to be unaware and continues to undress. My head had just been between her legs, but she appeared shy about showing me the rest of her body. It wasn’t like I hadn’t seen it, that day she came to my land, she was naked. I had to keep it together, until she lets me mark her, I wasn’t going to have sex with her. It didn’t stop my cock from t
Aria’s POV I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t understand why I said it, it was like the words just tumbled from my mouth. Like I had no control, like a part of me wanted to protect him. Ryan shifts back from his wolf, laughing. A deep full belly laugh as he looks at me and then Elijah. “There you go Elijah. You heard it from her ‘perfect pink lips’. She doesn’t want you to hurt me!” “Aria?” I heard Elijah’s voice in my head, it was calming and yet confusing. Why didn’t I want Daryl to hurt him? “Come Aria, let me take you home?” Ryan holds a hand out towards me. “You don’t belong here Aria. You are not one of them!” “A wolf? Of course she is!” Elijah growls from behind me, stepping out around me. “But she isn’t is she, or maybe you do not know Elijah. You see this girl standing in front of you. She is neither a wolf nor a vampire. In fact she is a combination of the two, a pure Hybrid, just like myself!” He smiles as he looks at me. “MATE!” he adds and takes a step closer. E
Alpha Elijah’s POV Why had Simon been so stupid, there was just no need for Aria to know, not now her father was dead. Simon had removed all the good images that Aria had of her father. Her knowledge of her father may have been a lie, but now, he had ruined her memories. “So it's true? He didn’t help you?” Her green eyes are watery. I didn’t want her to find out like this. “No.” “But you tried?” “Yes. First I sent Simon and then as the war grew closer, I asked. I thought he might have been interested. Our packs are only divided by a river.” She shakes her head muttering the word ‘no’ over and over. “He just wouldn’t!” Simon mouths ‘sorry’ at me and quickly makes an exit. “My father wouldn’t. He was a good man!” I weigh up my options and figure that I might as well just try and tell her everything. “It’s not the only thing, little wolf.” “What do you mean?” “The pack that attacked us. It was none other than Crimson Pack, led by Ryan’s father!” Her jaw drops. “After we w

Alpha Ryan’s POV“Well, where is she, where is my darling sister?” Seren spits as I walk back into my new packhouse.“Clearly, she is not here Seren!”“You didn’t force her home!”“I tried. Alpha Elijah wanted to kill me but your dear sister stopped him!”Seren raises an eyebrow at me“She stopped him?”“Yes, but I think I may have found a way for us to get in their pack tonight. It appears there is some sort of party going on. So what do you say Seren, up for a party to bring your sister home!”“She is not my sister!” she folds her arms across her chest, pushing her breasts up towards me.“There’s something else…”“What is it?”“Aria knows, she is in denial, but she knows!”“And she still didn’t agree to come back?”I shake my head,“She knows that she is a hybrid. She doesn’t know about the other thing yet.”“You will die if she doesn’t mate with you!”“You don’t need to remind me Seren. I just need to find a way to get her to hate Elijah.”Seren steps towards me, her arms unfolding
Alpha Elijah’s POVSimon had called in some people to help with her hair and make up. Her dark hair hung in soft curls around her face and the makeup, well, to me it didn’t look like she was wearing any. Aria shoots me a shy smile as she steps out of the bedroom. Her scent hits me hard as she closes her eyes.She looked perfect. Her blue dress and matching converse made her look even more gorgeous than what she already was, and I could already feel my dick stirring and I desperately tried to push any dirty thoughts I had of her from my mind.“What do you think?”“You look beautiful little wolf.”Her cheeks flush as I hold out my arm and she takes it.“I don’t have to worry about tripping!” she sticks out a foot showing me her footwear. Her comment makes me smile. It was unusual to find a woman who couldn’t walk in heels.Her smile is beaming from ear to ear as we walk out the packhouse and towards the spot where the ceremony will be held. I hadn’t told her about her being a Hybrid. I
Aria’s POVStrange sounds wake me, strange but familiar. Screams, battle cries and smell of blood shed. This could not be happening again. Trying to move, I find my hand cuffed, a metal band wrapped around my wrist and a thick chain was attached. Climbing from the bed, I follow the chain, it was something that had recently been installed and was obviously designed for me. The chain finished under the bed. A large metal ring that had been drilled into the floor, that doesn’t budge as I pull.Rubbing my head, I look around the room, trying to remember what had happened. I’m sure Seren had hit me but when I rub my head, there is no wound. I guess I could have healed, but that would depend how long I was out for.Moving around the bed, I climb into the window, the chain dragging along the floor behind me. Below were scenes that were too familiar. The smell of the blood was drifting in through the tiny crack in the window.Bodies were scattered everywhere and I see more people come from t
