LOGINCHAPTER FIFTY-THREE:Saphielle’s POV: An expression I couldn't decipher crossed her face. “He… he said he had to take care of something last night and I've not seen him since.” She glanced quickly at her watch. “It’s almost five pm, he’ll be back soon. Hopefully.”She was still speaking when I began to remember how I'd managed to escape… First, I remember hearing a loud roar and being uncomfortably hot and restless. And then there were screams, Azrael’s face… bones cracking, stench of blood.My heart dropped to my stomach as the realization dawned on me.He… he killed them? He couldn't have killed people because of me, right?But why did the thought of it make my heart flutter? ‘No, idiot. It shouldn't flutter. He could be in trouble because of you. The alpha king could punish him and you'd be blamed!’Shit. Maybe he didn't kill them? Maybe he only hurt them enough to send a warning? Goddess, please let it be that he didn't kill them because then, even he wouldn't be able to escape
CHAPTER FIFTY-TWO:Azrael’s POV: It made no sense. This has never NOT worked on anyone. I pried her hands away but she was surprisingly strong. “Baby, hey, hey. You’ll hurt yourself,” I said softly, holding both of her wrists firmly as she tried to break free… she’s like an untamed animal, her scent growing stronger as she thrashed against me, whining loudly. “Azrael, please.” Her gaze locked with mine, her chest heaving. “Please, help me, this is unbearable. Please. I need you.” “We can’t do this when you’re clearly not yourself. I can’t take advantage of you, I can’t do that. You’ll hate me when you’re back to your senses.” And I couldn’t bear the thought of that.”She groaned, tears gathering in her eyes. “I want this! I’m letting you do this. This is unbearable for me, please, I need you. Fuck me, please.”I’m torn and don’t know what to do. Even as bold as her words were, I could hear the slurring underneath.“Saph—““Don’t Azrael. How come now when I’m willing you’re saying
CHAPTER FIFTY-ONE:Saphielle’s POV: A loud growl that shook the walls of the building ironically calmed my raging heart. A sense of comfort enveloped me, I could recognise that growl anywhere. Instantly, I felt safe as tears of relief left my eyes. My body was betraying me, constantly growing hot and unbearably sensitive but I was safe.Everything happened in a blur, first, all I heard was Azrael’s growl, and then two of the guys were being slammed into the wall. Azrael is half-shifted—his wolf is unlike any other wolf I've ever seen. It made no sense. His claws were inches deep into both of their jugulars. The way blood sprayed from their flesh splashing Azrael’s face made me cringe even in my drugged dazed state. Caspian on the other hand had a guy pinned to the wall, his fangs tearing his neck apart, making the guy choke loudly on his own blood. There was a lot of noise, a heavy stench of blood filled the air but whatever Annika had injected in me made it almost impossible for m
CHAPTER FIFTY:Azrael’s POV:I jerked awake, my heart squeezing tightly. I'm not sure why… It felt like I was being forced awake. I must have dozed off a bit waiting for Saphielle to be done hanging out with my brother and her friend.I hated it. Knowing Izar has a crush on her made it almost impossible not to march down to his bedroom, beat him to a pulp, and drag Saphielle with me but I was choosing to be civil for her. Hell, I've been so civilized these past weeks watching all three of them hang out in various places on campus while he makes her laugh and spoils her like she belonged to him.I guess watching him with her was the prize I had to pay for stalking her daily. I'd like to think I was being mature and confident, that I'd already won her over, and that's why I hadn't acted like a caveman, but that wasn't the truth. If anything, I knew Izar hadn’t confessed his feelings yet, he's awkward when it came to things like that which is wild considering the fact that he was a ve
CHAPTER FORTY-NINE: TW!!! Saphielle’s POV:My feet kept hitting the ground as I ran with no destination in mind. The wind brutally slapped and hit my face, drying the tears on my cheeks. I need this to be a dream. I need this to be a lie. But the ache in my chest proved it was all real. Leanne and Kasper betrayed me. I don't know what I'm supposed to do. I don't know how I'm supposed to react. How do we come back from this? Goddess, why does it hurt so much? It hurt so much, it felt like I was going to die. Too tired to keep running, I stopped, hand to my knees as I bent over gasping for breath and sobbing loudly into the night. It hurts. It hurts. How can I lose my best friend? How? I can't lose her but I can't stand her either! I'm going crazy. I—WHACK!!!!Something hard and sturdy slammed against the back of my head. Pain exploded in my head, throbbing behind my eyes as I collapsed to the ground. WHACK!!! It landed brutally this time, knocking me unconscious and the
CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT:Saphielle's POV: Is it wrong to spy on your best friend? Izar said it wasn't wrong. He said he understood that I had been so worried about her, and even though she would get mad if she found out, she would realize that I hadn't done it with bad intentions.So, yeah. This was me, boarding this ridiculously expensive cab to trail hers—I guess I had no right to complain since Izar paid for it anyway. He offered to take me but I needed to do this myself, and I'm sure she'd recognize his car. It was a hassle getting out of his home without Azrael noticing though because I was supposed to speak to him after hanging out with Izar and Leanne. I could see Leanne’s car parked outside the gym. Odd.“I'll get off here, sir. Thank you.”The cab rolled to a stop and I got off too. My heart was racing as I took careful steps toward the building. I froze when Kasper came out and Leanne grabbed his arm leading him to the other side of the building which was darker and very pr
