“Oh they help people in distress. I ran away from home a couple months ago. A guy took advantage of me and left me in the woods to die.” I said sounding sad. “They brought me here and helped me recover. They are helping me with the babies too. They said I can stay here as long as I want. There are many people here like this but they are asleep at the moment. You know it being night and all. You can meet them in the morning. I came down to get a glass of water when I heard the door rattle. I am sure they will help you if you need help. Would you like something to eat?” I babbled.
He walked closer. “They brew you a nice story.” He sniffed again. “Ah now I know why. Those babies have a strong aura. Alpha or beta I think. Hmm you have an interesting scent.” He started circling me, quite predator like. “How about you stay here quiet and don’t raise an alarm. In return I won’t kill you?”
“Why would
“One of them tried to help me but was shut by the one I stabbed.” I shivered at the memory I hope I will forget soon. “That’s going to haunt me forever. He is a good guy, the other one. The funny part is, he thought I am the Luna of the pack at first.” I laughed “Idiot. Will you let him go?”“Are you insane? You want to set free a person who tried to kill you.” Liam said.I think something is wrong with the Alpha. He just kept looking at me, his expressions hard to understand.“One more thing. The injured guy said something about their plan being to kill everyone and take over the pack. I thought you should know about it.” I told them.“So the attack on the border was just to distract us then.” Liam muttered looking troubled as hell. “Thank you for the save. You unknowingly saved the lot of lives. Go sleep. You look beat. Adrian go with her.” Liam said smiling at me.
We continued eating only to stop when a frantic Adrian came dashing in the room but we ignored him and continued with our beloved food. Food comes before everything. He sat on the stool next to me and glared at us.“Nice friends I have got.” He hissed. “Well I went in your room to wake you up for the breakfast but I found Alpha Daniel there exiting the bathroom. Anything you want to say about it?” He asked.Lizzy lifted her glass of juice.“Why didn’t you ask him what he was doing in my room?” I said keeping a straight face.Adrian gave me a horrified look with a pig like squeal of fright and toppled out of his stool.I heard Lizzy coughing behind me. Apparently she had inhaled half her glass of orange juice as she laughed at our exchange. I rubbed her back but she continued laughing which made it difficult for the coughing to seize. At last she stopped coughing and took deep breaths to stop herself from la
I saw hurt flash through his eyes but it was gone as soon as it came. I nodded not fully believing his words.The lift stopped at his floor and the door opened. He stepped out and I followed him. He opened the door of his office and I entered behind him. He closed the door behind us making me tremble in fear.He sat on the couch in the left side of the room and motioned me to sit down. I sat down on the farthest corner, fidgeting my hands nervously.“Listen I am sorry about my behavior. I really am. It’s just you shouldn’t have come out then.”“Well sorry for trying to help you. I thought you were injured.” I said cutting him. “Alpha you don’t have to justify yourself. It is your pack and I am just an outsider. I can understand your behavior towards me. Just forget it please. You don’t have to bother about me.” I said getting up and walking towards the door.I was about to open the door wh
“I wanted to hold you and comfort you but I ended up ordering you and hurting you more. I felt repulsed of myself. I stormed out and went to my room. ‘No’ I thought ‘this is not right. She should not have such effect on you. I should stay clear of her. Stay away from her. You had a mate. You can’t do this.’ And I blamed you for messing with my head. I saw you many times coming down to the kitchen in the middle of the night. I knew you were having nightmares. I wanted to help but I stopped myself. I thought it was wrong. I knew you were doing the chores when you were supposed to rest. I wanted to tell you to stop working but I stopped myself. Don’t start caring for her. I said to myself. I knew you would go to the lake in the afternoon. I sometimes watched over you.”By the tone of his voice I knew he was troubled.“What if someone hurt you? I kept watching you from distance. Then the day of her death came. I shut my
The door of the lift closed and the whole thing started playing in my head.One day he is shouting at me, glaring at me and making me feel like an unwanted guest and the next day he confesses his love for me. This whole situation is messed up and utterly unbelievable. What is he playing at? Is he telling me the truth or is it some kind of joke?Well the way he was talking, he sounded genuine. I can’t stop myself but feel like something is not right.Why all of a sudden would he want to tell me this now? Does he expect me to just forget everything like it never happened and forgive him just like that, reciprocate his feelings, which I am still doubtful about? I don’t think that can be possible. I never even thought about him that way before nor am I thinking about him romantically now. My emotions are kind of dead for now.Yeah I can forgive him but forgetting everything would not be happening any sooner. Well at least he won’t keep glari
After two rounds to the kitchen the only plates left were at the front of the table were Alpha Daniel was still sitting, looking at me intensely. Well I got to pick them up at some point. I started picking the plates from at least twelve seats down from him. In no time I reached his seat and picked up his plate. I went in the kitchen and dropped the plates there. I returned to the dining room to find Lizzy talking to him in hushed voices.As soon as she saw me, she smiled at me and started picking the plates from the other end, twelve seats down from him. Adrian was going in the kitchen to put the last of the knives and spoons in the kitchen. I picked the plates next to his seat and was about to pick the next when his hand closed on mine. I looked at him surprised and he let go.“Did I do something wrong?” He asked in hushed voice.“What?”That caught me off guard.“You are ignoring me.” He said looking like an i
Pin drop silence, that’s all there is left in the room after his ‘declaration’. I am standing in his arms all wide eyed and in shock. I think I just lost my motor skills. I didn’t know he was actually serious about what he said. I took a deep breath in and tried to pry his hands off of my body but he tightened his arms even more.I heard someone gasp. I turned my head to the left to find the source to find Lizzy, with her hand on her mouth. The shock quickly subsided though and she gave me a triumphant smirk. I scowled at her. Traitor. Shouldn’t she be helping me out of this situation?I huffed and turned my head towards Peter to find him quivering with fear. Poor guy. He was just talking to me and he got the ‘Angry Alpha’ treatment on the very first day. I hope Daniel doesn’t chuck him back in the cell.Daniel was still breathing heavily and I know for sure he is still glaring dangerously at Peter. I saw Adrian at
What happened? Wasn’t I having a nightmare? Did I scream? Why am I in the dining room? There are other people here. What did I do?“Oh thank god.” Lizzy said in relief “Adrian pick her up. I need to check her up real quick. I can’t give her medicines for panic attacks in pregnancy.” She says in a hurry.Panic attack? Wasn’t it a nightmare? I feel fuzzy and tired. Adrian picked me up and started walking in a fast pace in what I think is the direction of the hospital wing. I want to sleep.“Why is she still shaking Liz?” Adrian asked in an alarmed voice.“Just the after effects. Don’t let her sleep though. I need her awake.” She said in an urgent voice.I heard two more footsteps behind us. Who are they? I am too tired to see. I started to close my eyes in exhaustion but was woken by someone violently shaking my head.“Don’t you dare close your eyes.” Adr
