Zayne's soft expression made my heart flutter, releasing butterflies in my stomach. Though the physical pain from the attack still hurt but Zayne coming to her rescue when she could have been killed and his visible show of concern, tended to her wounds and made it hurt less.
Zayne cleared his throat and picked up her bag that had been displaced during the scuffle, from the ground and handed it to her. "Follow me. You need to treat your wounds. "I glanced at my shoulder and looked at him raising my eyebrows, "Uhmmmm, follow you to where?"He gave me a blank look, "Do you want treat your wounds or rather leave it to rot?"Now that was the Zayne I was used to. The sarcastic and arrogant Zayne Marshall, who actually cares but pretends like he doesn't."Let's go then." I agreed and we went together.After riding with Zayne in his car for over twenty minutes, I was starting to wonder where on earth we were heading to, and that wasKendall's sinister smile sent a cold shiver down my spine as I watched her sip the tea she was offered."Dahlia, what are you doing there? Come over here and sit down already! You kept your friend waiting for almost an hour!" My grandmother scolded.What?!Kendall had been with my grandmother and aunt for an hour?!"By the way, you should have told me that you were friends with Kendall Forrest. I would have asked you to invite her for dinner or something. She's such a sweet girl. She even offered to make tea for us. " My grandmother praised Kendall, looking at her with a proud smile on her face, something she had never done to me, her granddaughter.Then it clicked and my eyes widened with alarm. I rushed over to the table where the cups of tea sat."Kendall made you tea?! Are you okay?!" I asked, what if she had already poisoned them before I came."What do you mean?" My aunt asked , eyeing me.I scanned their
I sat there in the meeting, dumbfounded and speechless. When my grandmother told me that the pack invited me to their meeting for the first time, I didn't know how to react. I couldn't tell what the motive behind inviting me was, whether it was good or bad. I started overthinking. Were they finally going to accept me as a hybrid? But I certainly did not expect to hear that my own pack wanted to get rid of me to gain more power.My mother grew up with these people, she was a bonafide member of the pack before she died and during all these years that they didn't accept me and singled me out , I just believed that that was my face and accepted it but I never knew a day like this will come.A day when my pack will tell me to my face that they want to get rid of me, that they intend to sell me out to the annihilators. Werewolves in a pack see one another as more than families, they would do anything to protect their pack members but seeing how my pac
Zayne was wearing a yellow apron , covering in flour and holding a packet of sugar , staring back at me wide eyed. "Wha ..... what are you doing here? " Zayne sputtered. I gestured towards the front door , "I ... I don't know. " My head hung low , "I really don't know what I'm doing here or how I got here ....."He dropped the packet of sugar in his hands to focus his full attention on me , "What do you mean you don't know? You show up at my house at past ten in the evening and then you say you don't know how you got here. Are you joking? " His tone was dripping with sarcasm as usual."I ... Something happened .... so I ran and ended up here. I really don't know how I got here. I guess I needed my peace and quiet , and your house has just that. I can leave if you want me to. What was I even thinking coming to your secret place without your permission? " I muttered the last part and was already moving towards the door to go out. I'd have to find a place to stay for tonight or just su
The wound was still fresh as it was the day I got it. As a werewolf, when I got a wound from natural cause, it healed immediately and if it was caused by a werewolf like me, it takes few hours to be healed. But it's been weeks since I was bitten by the eclipse pack member and I was yet to heal. I raised my t-shirt to also see that the wound on my side was yet to heal as well. I checked for where Madison usually kept her first aid box and when I found it, I cleaned the wound and replaced that bandage. But deep down in me , I knew that the cleaning of the wounds and changing the bandages wasn't the reason why I was yet to heal. There was something wrong somewhere and I was almost a hundred percent sure that it had to do with that member of the eclipse pack that bit me. After contemplating for a while, I picked up my phone and texted the only person I could ask about this because I was worried and scared. *Do have a minute to spare?* After few seconds , my phone's screen lit up and a
I was frozen on my seat as I listened to "THE" Mason Klein ask me out on a date. With my wolf hearing I could hear my friends encourage me to say yes to him. Mason Klein was good looking , a top student , nice, respectful and had a good reputation in school. He was also wolfless and stays off trouble. He was like perfection in form of a human being. There was nothing to dislike about him. He looked and gave the aura of a perfect boyfriend. He was so perfect that him asking me out was like a dream. Maybe the moon goddess was finally shining a positive light to my direction. Maybe it was time to move on from Zayne Marshall , my mate that rejected me and wouldn't deny or accept his connection with another girl. So I looked up at Mason and replied , "Yes. I'll go on a date with you. "I saw my friends give a victory fist pump from the side of my eye and Mason smiled brightly , obviously happy that I accepted his date offer.
The room instantly felt freezing as I felt a very cold shiver run down my spine making goosebumps appear on my body. This was the second time I was getting scenes like flashbacks after looking into people's eyes. The sharp pain on my shoulder and my side intensified and I yelped in pain. "Dahlia! Are you okay?!" Mason shouted , panic evident in hi voice.I cried again in pain , the pain intensifying every second."Oh my goodness , just hold on , let me call the doctor. " Mason said , struggling to reach the bed table for the desk phone."Mason , wait. Don't ..... don't c...call the doctor. I'll be fine. " I tried to tell Mason , still holding my shoulder and my side. "What? Let me just call the doctor! You don't look fine! " "Don't! Just give me a minute. " I didn't want attention and there was no point calling the doctor when I knew the cause of the pain was not medical. And the scenes I was seeing , seemed to be co
Zayne's POVI growled loudly at Dahlia , my eyes glowing in yellow , its werewolf form. I was enraged and almost blinded with anger. It was true that I went and ambushed Mason on his way to meet Dahlia for their date. I overheard with my wolf hearing when the bastard asked Dahlia out. I know of all his little plans and I was going to do anything to stop them. But I didn't expect Dahlia to barge in here , telling me that she saw everything. From when I forcefully entered his car , to our brief argument and to when I angrily took over his steering wheel and swerved it off the road , when he started acting cocky. Dahlia's eyes were blue and I could see anger and frustration in them. She also growled at me and as she was about to scratch me with her claws , the door burst open and Jayson and Jayden barged in. "Stop!!! " They screamed.Dahlia and I turned our faces to the direction of where the twins were standing."What the hell are you two doing?! Stop that this instant! " Jayden shou
Zayne's POVThe eclipse pack was the most powerful pack known. Their powers were passed down from generations for centuries and that was why their Alpha , Garrett Forrest , was also very powerful, much more than other Alphas ,so he was feared and respected. So it was no surprise to me that the pack members had individual power to mark their territory on people when they bite them. What I didn't know was if the eclipse pack member who bit Dahlia approached her on purpose or it was just a coincidence. After biting her, did he find out if she was an hybrid or not? The eclipse pack were quite serious about the annihilation, Kendall told me that they already captured lots of hybrids. Though Dahlia was no longer my mate, I would never allow the eclipse pack take her away because she was hybrid. "Zayne , what are you thinking about so deeply? " Kendall asked, giving me one of her charming smiles."Nothing. ""So ,
