Chapter 52: I hate them!Sierra's POV (6 years ago)Months have passed. Everything is a blur of heartache and unfamiliarity in my life, and it has been that way since Alpha Zade rejected me and turned my already shattered heart upside down. This pack holds so many secrets and lies, it's hard to tell what is real and what isn't. People are the main reason for that proclamation. Take Rosie, for example. She is so obsessed with Alpha Matthew's that even when she found out I was his mate, Me ... the useless, deaf orphan, she still beat the living daylights out of me for it and claimed that I would never be worthy of anyone else again. I think that really set my self-esteem off because I knew I wouldn't be. An omega lives by an agreement amongst other omegas ... never turn on each other. Never allow another to harm one of your own. You are the lowest of the rank; it doesn't get much lower than being an omega, and everyone of a higher rank will let you know of this too. Repeatedly.“So
Chapter 51: I'm proud of youNikolai’s POV“Yeah?” she says, giving me a look that isn't quite nervous but isn't quite excited either. It's that little bit of the in-between that makes me know that she is okay. She will always be okay, no matter the cost. “I'm proud of you,” I tell her honestly. I don't let my emotions out that easily, but with everything going on, I want her to know that I feel every ounce of pride and gratitude toward her.Yes, she came to my pack on very different circumstances.It wasn't the meet and greet we both expected, I never expected to ever bring her home looking beaten and broken but I did and I can't change the past. I would love nothing more than to change it. To have it so I could have met her parents, listened to her telling me all about her teenage years and college years. I would have loved to hear about her friends. Not boyfriends. Fuck not her boyfriends.I mean, thankfully my jealous ass was her first and I'll damn well make sure I will be her f
Chapter 50: Sierra Love Sierra’s POV “You'll just have to be a good boy and wait” I say which earns a hard glare from him before his hand wraps around my throat. He knows this is a very big weak spot for me right now. Is it just a phase though or do I actually really like it? “Sweetheart, I'm a good boy no matter what time of day it is. You on the other hand are testing every last bit of my patience and I'm starting to think you're doing it solely to get a rise out of me. No, this is what's going to happen, so listen up” he whispers in my ear. This whole thing is making me more aroused by the second and he knows this too which is why he's doing what he's doing. I catch people looking out way before turning their heads again out of respect but I know they can hear. Wolf's hearing is so sensitive that no matter how hard you try not to listen, you can always catch the conversation. Even more awkward when someone is talking about sex or one-night stands. I usually catch a glimpse
Chapter 49: listen to me and listen carefullySierra’s POV The party is winding down slowly. It's 11:30 and as Nikolai happily pointed out, everyone here is also older so they headed off home. The ones who stayed have vanished to their rooms for a good night's sleep before the staff come in, in the morning to make a massive buffet breakfast.“I've got some things I need to sort out love. Why don't you head on up to bed and get naked? Wait for me” Nik winks as he takes my hand and pulls me closer to his warmth.God, I'm a sucker for his warmth.“What things?” I ask gently as I look into his eyes. I could kind of gather the things he has in mind when he took all of my old pack members and Natasha down to the basements where they keep prisoners.“Well-” he looks into my eyes. Really looks into my eyes and then sighs. “I don't want to lie to you baby-girl but I also don't-”“I want in”“In on what?” he asks me. Playing dumb. Hmm. We shall see.“Don't play dumb with me Nikolai. You think
Chapter 47: I don't know whyNikolai’s POV I watch her. Although her body presents itself as strong and independent, I can feel her emotions the same way she can probably feel mine.I took this attack personally, and I won't back down now. I won't sit back and allow them to believe they have won when I know that deep down, Sierra has won. She may not feel it, or she may not seem strong enough. She may even doubt my minor affection for her right now because she's feeling something she doesn't want to feel, but right now, I'm her strength.I will hold her up even when times are tough. When times are perfect and she's as happy as she can be. I will continue to be that strength for her. For me. For us.“Come with me”, I whisper in her ear.Brushing through the crowd, her hand secure in mine, I spot many of our own here and smiling up at us with pride and awe. They had no idea what was going on; they assumed that Sierra was going to become part of our pack and that we were hosting the gr
Chapter 47: You!Sierra’s POVMusic plays downstairs, but my heart is beating louder. My nerves don't settle even when Mila and Maeve tell me everything is going to be okay.I want to just shrink inside this room and never leave again. I don't want to be known as the one who was beaten and abused.It was bad enough when Nikolai would look at me like that.“Are you okay sweetie?” Maeve asks me as she comes to stand next to me in my room. I want to say yeah. I want to say that everything is absolutely perfect and I can't wait to officially be known as Nikolai’s mate and the Luna to this pack but at the same time I am so scared. So nervous and terrified to feel the rejection from the pack.Not to mention some surrounding packs are visiting for this as well. Approximately, there are going to be over 1600 people here tonight.“I'm scared” I admit to her.“Honey, you're going to be scared but Nikki is waiting for you, he’s waiting to show the world that you are his and he can't wait to let
