Zane and I were laid against each other on the sofa, popcorn safely tucked in his lap as we watched three Disney movies back to back, and I'll admit that I loved everyone of them. I loved that the stories always had happy endings, it was nice, it gave me hope that maybe I could have a happy ending as well.
"thank you for watching these with me." I tell Zane, gently placing a kiss on his cheek.
he turned towards me and smiled widely, "anything for you Annalise, you are my happy ending."
I blush slickly as I tuck myself closer to him, enjoying the warmth that he offers, I love all of my mates, but Zane was the laid back one, he was easy to be around and always managed to make it fun.
I wanted to tell him that I appreciate everything that he does, that I love him more than I could ever hope to say, but just as I open my mouth alexander rushes in, looking flustered and worried.
I walked into the room with my power present, I wasn't going to look weak in front of my old master, I wanted him to know that I had changed, I wasn't the same weak she-wolf that he remembered. I was so much more now.I took a seat in the chair directly across from him, crossing my legs as I learnt back, showing him that I wasn't afraid. I wouldn't allow him to intimidate me any longer, I was a free wolf and if he thought for one moment he could walk in here and take me back; he is dead wrong.I'll be going nowhere with Balthazar, but depending on what he has to say, I'll do my best to make sure that he doesn't leave here alive.if it comes down to it, I'll attempt to kill him. I won't be a slave again, I would rather die than live that life again.but right now I had my children to think of, I had to be careful, I couldn't risk my unborn Cubs to be hurt. I would do whatever it
I walk back down to the ground floor and into the kitchen, Zane waiting for me there as he cooks us something to eat. I look over into the pan to see some kind of stew and smile, my mates know how to look after me, they always know how to take care of what I need."this smells great." I say, smelling the stew in the air."I'm glad you think so, it'll be ready soon." He pauses, turning to face me. "How did it go with Balthazar? I wasn't allowed to intervene."My smile widens and I can't help but feel some pride in myself. "I don't think we have to worry about him for now, I told him that I would go nowhere with him and showed him some of my power, he didn't like it at all. But I don't think he's much of a threat."Nyx huffed within me, "he'll never be a problem again, we can totally bring down that warlock."Zane nods, but I can see worry coating his face. "did you tell him about th
here with my mouth wide open, awestruck by what Eve had done, my heart swelling with love for her. The room was pained in a light blue, white clouds also painted and a sun on one wall. The carpet was a dark shade of blue, white rugs lining where the two cribs were side by side.toys, clothes and nappies were neatly put away into drawers and their was two changing stations ready for when the babies arrived. I couldn't believe that she had done all of this in the space of two days.i walked towards a chest of drawers, running my hands over the stuffed animals and soft toys, my mind going to what my children would be like. How they would act and what personalities they would have, who would my children become?What movies would they enjoy?what would their favourite colours be?I couldn't help but wonder if they would be similar or completely different, would they share a bond w
I heard shouts from outside, causing me to stand up and walk towards the window, my chest heaving heavily, I hadn't seen most of the pack, or the other betas yet, I wasn't even officially Luna, but that didn't mean I didn't care about the people. I wanted them all to be safe and happy, just as I wanted my mates to be happy.i opened the curtain and leaned against the windowsill, trying to get a better view of outside, my heart thudding in my chest at what I saw. Rogues we're making their way into the territory, hundreds of them and I could smell them from here; the rotten flesh and stink of blood.I had to do something! They were coming from the west side, and if they continued most people would be caught by surprise. We'd lose loads of the pack that way, especially with how many rogues were out there."Nyx what should we do? We aren't linked to the pack yet, we can't warn people." I asked in a panic, childre
The rogues I crushed died quickly and in agony, each one of them begging for mercy, a mercy that I wouldn't grant. They wouldn't have shown me or anyone else mercy if they were given the chance, so I would not show it to them. I felt a wave of dizziness wash over me, but I ignored it as more rogues rushed to my position, knowing that they would have to take me out first if they had any hope of taking over the pack and destroying the people in it. but I wouldn't allow that to happen, I know what I can do and I know that I can beat them, they don't stand a chance against the power that the moon goddess gave to me. the pack warriors and my mates had arrived to join the battle, each one of them fighting for their lives against the unusually strong wolves. They had help to be that strong, I knew that for certain, I could almost smell the magic that was seeping from them. Empowering their movements. "B
I storm up the stairs and into my bedroom, deciding to shower in order to get all the blood of me, but I couldn't help but growl under my voice, furious at what Dean had said to me. How could he be like that? I saved the lives of pack members and yet he tried to label me as weak. I step under the streaming water, trying to calm my racing heart as I looked down at the growing bump on my stomach, rubbing it softly. It wasn't like I was purposely trying to harm my babies, I didn't want anything happening to them, just like my mates didn't. but that didn't mean he could talk to me like that, I had done nothing but try and help, not anger anyone. "Nyx what are we going to do? I feel like everyone tries to control us." I complain, though most of my anger has gone now, replaced with sadness. Didnt Dean trust us? "I think he was just worried about the babies, we are chatting the ne
We walked to the kitchen together, our hands entwined, it was nice to show affection in this way, and it was also rare. So much has happened in the months that I left slavery, much more than I could have ever dreamed.I had so much to experience, so much to learn, but I was getting there and maybe one day, when our children our grown, the world would be different. I hoped that it would be safer for them, I didn't want them to suffer as I have, I wanted them to be happy from their younger years.but I guess that is what everyone wants for their children, a better life to grow and be happy. I just pray that that dream is a reality, I couldn't imagine them going through what I had, and if it was within my power, I'd never pet anyone hurt them.their lives will be different , they would be better, they would have everything they could ever dream of, maybe more. Yes, I realise the risk of them growing up spoilt, b
I stand there shocked, not knowing what to say, I knew that Balthazar would go to certain lengths to get me back, but this? I could never have expected him to go to every warlock he knows in order to trap me.what were we going to do? We wouldn't be able to fight that many of them, no matter how many we had in the pack. We would lose.I walked backwards until I hit a chair and flopped into it, utterly defeated and terrified, I didn't know how we were going to get through this. How could we survive an attack of this magnitude?"I'm going to end up a slave." I whisper, throwing my head into my hands."I'd die before I let you go back to that Annalise." Zane murmurs, kneeling down in front of me as gently kissing my head. "We will fight them.""we can't win." I whisper, tears forming in my eyes. "What will happen to our children?"matthew came to kneel next to Z
