Hi guys, I am back, sorry for the two weeks break but there is a lot going on in my country and my family and I had to leave our home to another state for a few days to avoid the violence of the elections going on. But we are safe now, thanks to all those who sent me messages to check in. I appreciate them, and I do not take all your trust for granted. I am devoted to this story as much as you all are interested in reading it and I wouldn't let you guys down. Who do you think it is in this chapter? Obviously it is someone working for Jax as a spy in Ares pack, it is someone the both Alpha's trust. So ket me know your thoughts on the person in the comments. See you in the next chapter. Double updates today!
Ares. “The west border has been attacked!” Seth said, pushing the door to my door to my office as I slammed shut my laptop hiding the video of Alora and I at the mall a few months ago. Apparently, someone had made a video of us and I knew it was probably one of those high schoolers who were admiring us both. In the video, Alora had been waiting for the cotton candy to get ready while I had helped her pin her hair away from her face as she hopped excitedly, oblivious to me pinning her hair. I didn’t know what the kids had done but a nice song was playing in the video and it made my action much more….romantic? I had stared harder at myself in the video. My eyes weren’t as cold as they used to be and my face was calm. My blue eyes watching Alora softly. Was this how I looked when I stared at her? I shook my head, as I remembered the past few days. I had been acting differently, since we found out Alora wasn’t the spy, something had changed within me. My level of trust in her ha
Alora. I stared at the half moon outside before I looked at my phone. I couldn’t read the time but I knew it was late and Ares should be back home by now. I bit my lips as I sat on my bed and closed my eyes. I imagined Ares here, sitting beside me, his cold blue eyes staring at me void of emotions. Despite Ares' empathetic behavior towards me, something in me had grown dependent on him. And as I stayed alone in the empty house, I thought of him. He slept here everyday alone, ate alone and lived alone. It was lonely. And I felt lonely too. I wanted him here. The past few days have been me working with the girls in the kitchen. Ares comes home after they leave and we either spend the night in the piano room until I grow tired of playing or Ares sleeps off on the couch. And then we went to our separate rooms. A part of me wanted to stay with Ares but I was so shy to tell him after my feet had healed quickly. My phone rang and I jumped at the noise looking down at the scree
Ares. “Are you sure I’ll change to a wolf on a full moon?” I asked the boy who I had met in the forest a few days ago. He was the same age as I was, and we spent the rest of the day hiding in the cave so the pack guards of the Blood Moon Pack wouldn’t find us. “Yep.” Seth answered and I smiled, lying on the rocks that pieces my skin but I didn’t care. The moon glowed above us as the cold ruffled my hair and made me shiver. “We have the ability to change to wolves on a full moon. But that’s until we reach sixteen years old.” Seth said and I turned to him, resting my head on my joined palm as Seth continued to stare at the sky. “What do you think my wolf would look like?” I asked excitedly as Seth sighed and turned to me, his grey eyes blending in the moonlight and his scar at the right side of his face was covered by his black hair. “This is the millionth time you are asking me that.” Seth chuckled and I shrugged before he continued. “You look like a scaredy cat, it would prob
Alora. “Camilla was a little more rough growing up.” Lana said and she showed me a picture of the twins on her phone. A picture of Camilla and Carmen stared back at me. They didn’t look any older than eight years old. They both had the same honey brown hair but Camilla had one of those pin on colored hair at the side of her head, a purple one that blended in her hair and it reminded me of my eyes. It was the only difference between them. Though Camilla had a more meaner look as she glared at the camera while Carmen smiled widely. They wore swimming trunks and the background was a beach. “She used to beat up the kids who tried to be mean to Carmen cos she was more laid back.” Lana said, looking at the picture as she turned to me with a smile. “I was so happy to have twins after my first miscarriage. It was like God blessed me with another to make up for the one he took.” She said and I smiled at her just as the twins walked into the room. Camilla walked in first, in a red an
Alora. The line went dead and my hands trembled badly as the phone slipped past my hand and fell to the floor. I shivered, as I collapsed unable to hold myself anymore and I started to cry. I didn’t cry, I wailed. My parents were dead, they were gone. For years, I had prayed for their death, cursing them for selling me to Jax. Someone who was only one step away from totally killing me. I hated that they neglected me when I was younger, leaving me to wander the woods all alone where I could have easily been hurt or worse attacked by a wild animal. Everyday, they made me feel like an outcast. I already was one but I wanted my parents to accept me when no one else did. But they hated me and kicked me at any chance that came. And when I had met Jax in the woods, a boy who was only a few years older than I was. He was cruel too and hit me when I acted stupid. He insulted me any chance he got. But I couldn’t let him go. I had no one else so I clinged to Jax any chance I got and bor
Ares “Alpha, you can’t do that.” Seth said as I signed on a booklet one of the pack nurses gave me and I returned it back to her before turning to look at Seth who was fuming behind me. “It’s late. We can’t leave him here.” I told him as Seth growled before running his hand through his hair and turning around before facing me once more. “Then we can just give him to one of the pack maids. They can take care of him. Taking him to your home is a bad idea.” Seth told me and I shook my head. “He is alone. He just lost his mother. We can’t leave him at the pack house.” “It’s even better there, he can be with other kids.” “When I lost my mother, I didn’t want to be with other kids and then I met you. I wanted to be alone, grieve and not be surrounded by people who would take pity on me.” I said and Seth sighed just as Doctor Kunle came to us. Seth turned to him as Isabel’s father frowned at my Beta clearly disapproving of him since he basically kind of rejected Isabel. Doctor K
Ares. I looked in the rear mirror at the boy who had fallen asleep in the back seat, his hands clasped under his head as he snored silently. I drove carefully and pulled up at the estate gate before driving in. Looking at the house, and at my watch. It was already past twelve so I figured Alora was already asleep. Coming down from the car, I walked to the back seat and pulled the door open before reaching for Alex who mumbled and reached for his thumb before sucking on it. I forced the smile off my face as I pulled him to my chest and he rested his head against my shoulder. “Make sure the gates are locked properly.” I said to a guard who nodded as he came to get my car keys to take to the garage. I went to the house, pushing the door open before closing it behind me. It was dimly lit inside and Lana always left the hallway light to the kitchen turned on so I didn’t trip on my way up the stairs. Alex slept peacefully and I turned to the chair where Alora usually sat and watched
Alora. The feeling of someone hands on my cheeks woke me up from the deep slumber and I fluttered my eyes open meeting Ares cold blue ones, but they had some sort of emotions buried beneath all that icy blue. As quickly as I felt the touch, it was gone and Ares snatched his hand away, coughing awkwardly as I smiled softly at him. “Hi.” I said quietly as Ares nodded, starting to get off the bed when I clinched to his arm and giggled. “Don’t leave yet.” I told him as he looked down at my hands wrapped around his biceps. I blushed as his muscles flexed a bit before he nodded. I didn’t know why I was suddenly brave around him, but after knowing Jax was lurking around ready to pounce on me when Ares wasn’t looking, I wanted to be around Ares and his protection. A part of me ached to tell Ares but another part of me was scared. He hadn’t been fully kind to me when we first met and he hated Jax. I couldn’t imagine what his response would be when I told him. “Why do you hate the
