She has Annabella by the arm pulling the ring from her finger as Annabella tries pulling away, Morpheus starts stirring on the inside which was strange because I haven't heard from him in a long time.
”what are you doing?” father asked Mariah,“I just want to have a look, that's all.” Mariah smiled,“Let go of the poor girl, Mariah. She's uncomfortable with you touching her.”“Are you uncomfortable with me touching you, Annabella?” Mariah asked,“Mariah let her hand go and get ready for the Luna meeting.”Mariah storms off and father storms off behind her, they are both arguing with each other, Annabella composes herself and gathers the rest of the dishes from the dining room before washing them up.I offered to dry, but she denied the offer and asked if I'd like a cup of coffee instead. I would never decline a cup of coffee, seeing that's the first woman I ever fall in love with.She turns on the television and I watch it from the kitchen, waiting for her to ready the cup of coffee and place it on top of the counter. There's a Steve Harvey family feud episode going on that grabs my attention.I'm watching the television when I feel the heat from the coffee falling onto my hands, I pull away and shout to get Annabella's attention.She looks at me in complete horror as my hands are now red and some coffee is spilled on the counter.“Ohh, I'm so sorry…”“It…”“Paper towels, yes, paper towels.”Scrambling around the kitchen looking for the paper towels, I look on in amusement mainly because I've never seen her look so frantic before.“Just use the cloth, Annabella.”“Ohh, the cloth, right.”She grabs the cloth and wipes up the mess, then she opens the cabinet above the sink and gets the small medical supply kit and places a bandage over the burn after placing ointment on it.“I'll make you more coffee…”“No, Annabella, it's ok.”“No, no, I insist I'll make you another cup, just let me grab a pack from the pack's kitchen I'll be right back.”She storms off and runs through the door leaving me in the kitchen with wet pants, wet t-shirt and a family feud episode still going on, on the television.A half hour has now gone by and Annabella hasn't returned yet, the rain is pouring and father already left with Mariah.I'm nervous as hell, scared that something might have happened to her or worse she gets lost or kidnapped, well, I don't think anyone would kidnap her, but she could still get lost.Rolling back and forth on the porch I spot the woman who helped me a couple of years ago, she sees me as well and comes over.“Alpha Alonso, are you ok?”“AMM… No, my wife Annabelle went to the pack's kitchen and hasn't returned yet. She doesn't have an umbrella, and I'm afraid she got lost.”“Annabella, ohhh, your father's beta adopted daughter.”“Yes, could you please look for her? I would have, but…”“I'll go look, you stay put.”She leaves after opening her umbrella and runs through the rain looking, I continue rolling back and forth thinking if I should call dad and ask him for help, but a part of me doesn't want to, a part of me wants to do this on my own even though I asked a person I've only met twice in my life to help me.I looked at the time and noticed that she had been gone for twenty minutes, so I did what I've never thought about doing in a million years. I grabbed an umbrella, opened it and drove myself out onto the paved road and looked around.Furthermore, I called for her as I drove and looked at the same time, not noticing that I'd drive into a mud puddle, leaving me stuck, the wind picking up and the umbrella going flying up into the sky.Annabella comes out of nowhere with the woman holding her in her arms, they both see me and run over to get me out from the puddle, they push and push until they get me out.We hurried back home to change from the soaking wet clothes we were in and thank the lady for all her help. I even asked her if she'd like anything in return, and she said no.Annabella helps me out of my clothes with her head turned away, she then carries me to the bathroom and runs me a warm bath. She organizes my clothing and my catheter bag for when I'm finished with my bath. Once I'm finished she gets me out, dries me with her head turn and helps me dress. Gave me some medication and then placed me under the blanket.I hear her coaching and sneezing in the bathroom non-stop, the water starts running, and she goes silent.“Ohh goodness, she's sick.” I hear Morpheus say,“Where did you come from?”“Don't worry about me get a doctor over to see the poor girl.”I grab my phone from the nightstand draw and call Dr.Williams the pack doctor over to check up on both me and Annabella.He arrived shortly after Annabella came out of the shower, checked me over first, then check Annabella.“You'll be fine, Alpha, but you…”“My wife Annabella is my wife.”“Your wife here may have come down with the cold, I'll bring the medicine over shortly. Also, she has to get a lot of rest.”“Thank you.” both me and Annabella say together,Annabella walks him out and remains downstairs for quite a while, when she did return she came with a piping cup of hot coffee. Upon her handing me the cup, I notice her ring finger bare,“Annabelle.”“Uhh.”“Where is your wedding ring?”She stops stairs at me like I asked her where's the ghost of Christmas past.Alonso.Dad stood to his feet just in time as the howls of wolves were heard all throughout the forest.They are coming, I turned to Annabella and she started shouting at the warriors to assume their positions. Thank goodness the women and children had been placed in the safe spot because that would have a tragic end.Everyone is ready,even though they are nervous there ready because today we don't only fight for ourselves we fight for our kind.A loud swosh was heard over us and then bodies began to drop to the floor like rain drops, some are ours some are there's.Then like a war in ancient times they came running from the forest looking like ants towards us. I looked at Annabella, my father, beta and gamma and then we ran in without thinking.Spells are being cast from above heads as the ground swallows some and vines from trees pull some deep into the forest.You could hear them scream grunt and moan each life that was connected to me ripping from my chest as they leave the ear
Alonso The time is upon us. I can feel it, it's in the sky. The clouds are darkening and every now and again thunder raoars and lighting flashes. That's why im taking Annabella on one last date before it all happens. I just want to spend one last night with my wife before everything goes to shit. I set up a picnic dinner under the moon light in a little town about an hour away from our pack. Before leaving I how empty the grounds are I guess everyone is doing the exact same thing. Annabella is meeting me there after her meeting with the Luna of a nearby pack. While we stand waiting for her at the front entrance Moroheous and I continue our conversation we were having earlier on. As her husband and protector we have come to a decision that we wouldn't out her life in danger, no matter what happens she has to live. A short while after we see her coming walking towards us, she's wearing a link strapless dress and a hair of black ballerina flats. Her hair is in her usual messy bun w
On days like this, I'm glad my brother wasn't an egotistical maniac that thinks the world revolves around him. I'm glad he's humble even when he shouldn't be.Standing alongside him I could smell the worry rolling off his shoulders, he's not afraid, just worried about how Kane is going to take the news that we wouldn't be joining his cult.Besides Kane being crazy, his warriors are ruthless. They fight not to protect but to inflict pain, harm and to kill for enjoyment. They are maniacs just like him.Two minutes later our hidden warriors signal that Kane and his followers have arrived and just like any egotistical Alpha he arrived in the best. A freaking Posh while his men sit behind in broken-down old trucks dressed in suits."Lydon, it's so nice to see you again."He plasters that dirty smirk on his face and stretches to hug my brother, Lydon's body tenses but he returns the hug with a tight squeeze."Liam, it's nice to see you again."Kane reaches his hand for me to shake but inste
AnnabellaMy dreams were blank except for the one that woke me up, I couldn't bear to see them. I couldn't bear to see how they died. How the children died.I woke up next to Alonso, he was holding my hands soothing me, helping me come to but that wasn't enough. It was so much the pain I could feel it running through me like live wire.But just like always he found a way to make it better and helped me come to terms with the new me. The hair, marks and eyes are something totally new.I haven't left the house since i didn't want to because i was afraid of how people would watch me, how they would react but i guess faith had something else in store.Loud noises came from outside then a magnetic pull was felt throughout the house and I saw my father all beaten and bruised laying in the middle of the living room calling for me.I stand and watch as he's rushed to the pack's hospital, his breathing soft as he lays there with his eyes closed. I want to cry, shed a tear but I hardly know the
THE WEREWOLF COUNCIL LOCATED SOMEWHERE IN PARIS.Cody, head of the disaster department.Papers kept coming through our fax machines, hundreds of them and all are explaining a number of casualties all of which we knew would happen one day but didn't expect it to happen that soon.I sit in my office rushing through file after file of hundreds of packs that went from thousands to hundreds and then to a couple in a short time. Minutes, no not minutes seconds.That's all it took Ivy seconds, seconds to have our kind, the most powerful creatures on the face of the earth, fall completely in mayhem. Our Lycan king went missing first then his daughter and we were left hopeless and hopeful that this day wouldn't come. But it looks like hope wasn't enough.Dropping the file on the table , I passed my hand across my face and I could feel the freshly growing hair from my jawline coming back as a reminder that I haven't been at home in days. My head pops up outside my office as I watch my employees
Being away from Annabella this long is killing me, waiting for her to wake up is killing me. But not knowing if she would wake up is killing me more.We have more and more pack members, survivors coming to our pack. Many are still in a state of shock, many lost and many broken. Today we have a meeting with the new elected Alphas of the 10 (Ten) packs that came our way after their packs were demolished. Even though they are safe here it wouldn't be fine for long, just like most packs are under attack we will be also. Soon, very soon. My father seems to be doing well which is surprising, because a couple of days ago he wasn’t doing very good. Today we are both heading to where most packs have set up camp,our pack is big but not big enough to hold everyone. We have the women and children in houses and the men in tents, sadly a lot of wolves that came with wounds did not survive, some of them can't sleep because of the constant nightmares. To make matters worse we are about to ask th
