Hello, it's OMB again, please leave a comment and let me know what you think of the book and where it needs improvement.
/Eric’s POV/I acted irrationally I get it. Neither Chris nor I were the type to swing our arms first, I was trained by his father too, and for a long time, we were taught to defend rather than attack, so when I fearlessly swung my arm to the Alpha’s jaw first after Chris’ swung first, I realised, I’ve really lost it because at the time I was reminded of the trembling Selena, I remember her pale fragile body shaking in fear and extreme lust as Chris carried her into the house, even after Chris asked to leave I could hear her weak trembling voice from the door, begging to be left alone, afraid she would be assaulted again.I could hear her throwing up, if Chris hadn’t rushed out of her room, I would have walked in to put an end to her torment because at that moment I wanted to help her, I wish Chris would as well, it’s surprising he letter left, and as I stood at the corner of the landing watching him slipped to the foot of the car while he lowered his head onto his folded legs, the de
/Selena’s POV/ A slap to the face, hat stings like hell I remember thinking as I slowly turned to Lydia who had a face full of great animosity. What the hell? I had thought, too shocked to react at that moment but when she tried to slap me the second time, I caught her hand and landed a counterattack, slapping her hard across the face so hard that her nose starts to bleed. “No matter how important you think you are, what gives you the right to lay your freaking hands on me?” I demanded wearing an aggravated look because I was seething too. “You…did…did you just slap me” I scoffed wondering if it was because the slap wasn’t hard enough since she still wasn’t sure. “Do you need proof- “You!” She clenched her teeth reaching for my hair but I yanked hers first. “You’ve got some nerves really, because I’ve been letting you do what you want, you must think you can make me submit or something, you must be freaking delusional” I snarled, dragging her by the hair before shoving her agains
/Chris’ POV/ I’ve never been more alarmed than I was when I heard Lydia was fighting Selena, I kept worrying something might have happened to her, my head drawing speculations, we might not be getting along right now but she was still my mate and I intend to do anything to protect her. And one of the series of steps is slowly establishing her authority as the Luna, that way no one would dare look at her in the face again and that’s the reason I had Lydia give up the responsibility of leading the she-wolves council, after all, it was Selena’s responsibility to begin with, I was a fool to think Lydia would take it well. I didn’t think she’d go attack Selena because of it, I mean I knew she was short-tempered and angry but, attacking the Luna straight up counts as treason, it could lead to banishment. I’m yet to deal with Jenny after what she’s done and now Lydia, my head hurt. When I got to the house and saw Selena’s cheek stained by blood, I almost lost my cool and ripped Lydia’s thr
/Chris’ POV/ I don’t know how to feel about Selena running off on me like that, it seems we had a lot to talk about but suddenly she was running off, should I have just followed and held her back? I wondered for a minute before a panting Eric burst into my living room wearing a pissed-off look. “Chris” Oh here he is? I gave him a bored look while waiting for him to tell me why he had had his annoying face in front of me. “You won’t believe this- “If it’s coming from you, yeah probably” I answered nonchalantly. “Are you still mad at me?” He had a confused look on his face like he had no idea what he did. “Oh, I’m sorry. Am I supposed to welcome you with wide open arms after you tried to seduce my wife?” I tsked with sarcasm and he sighed taking a seat opposite me. “I already apologised- “Oh you did? I don’t remember anything like that though” I shrugged my shoulders indifferently. “I can’t apologise for having feelings for Selena” This bastard! I thought turning sharply in his d
/Selena’s POV/Hearing Chris explain and set right the misunderstanding and prejudice I had against him had me feeling the greatest level of shame and embarrassment. I can’t believe that I’ve been thinking he bullied me throughout all these years, and he said he liked me since high school, he might not have blatantly stated that he’s in love with me, but isn’t that like a love confession? But damn it I’m so embarrassed. I I thought covering my flushed face with my palm as I stood against the door of my room wallowing in regret, if…if I had discovered sooner that he was my mate…my cheeks grow warmer as I start imagining what we could have been, we’d have been childhood sweethearts and it would have been easy to get married to each other, the idea of those wishful pasts had my centre suddenly throbbing.I know my heat was yet to end so any small stimulation and I go into full gear, but it’s just setting in. If only I could stop it before then, I took a deep breath inhaling some of Chris
/Chris’ POV/ It’s been five days, five days since I almost marked Selena, five days since I almost lost control to my wolf, and two days since I started my rut. I rut just once a month but it depends on how pure an Alpha bred is, and the mental state of the Alpha. A purebred would normally rut once in a month, but a rejected Alpha would probably rut once in a year or probably twice a year but in my case, it’s the second time I’m rutting because I was influenced by my mate’s heat. I should have known better than to expose myself to her intoxicating pheromones, getting me drunk like a peach mine and now my beast wants to claim her. Being a pure breed Alpha since I was birth to two Alpha parents made me realise how susceptible I was to an omega’s pheromone. I was literally walking on the edge of a knife around her, tipping like I’m hanging from a thorny rope, any external stimuli and I’ll probably fall, so I avoided her, I hate myself during rut, it lasts six days and I don’t think stra
/Selena’s POV/It all unfolded before my eyes but I felt like I was watching it all through a TV screen. Lydia almost lost her life and me? I don’t know what almost happened to me, what would have been my fate if I had stayed, and as I watched things unfold, I realise how easily he marked me, I knew Chris' body was willed by his wolf but the marking was still done without my consent, he could have at least tried to resist, he definitely wanted something like that to happen, nothing else could explain him acting that else.Why? Because he wanted me for himself? Why did he ignore me for days then? Why did he try to satisfy his rut with Lydia then, why? Why? I wish I could ask him but I couldn’t I was furious, I wanted to scream and yell at him for doing something so wrong, you should never mark someone against their consent. It’s wrong, I thought although, I was mad at him, I didn’t intend to mention rejection again because I knew deep down I could never reject him, then Chris started
/Eric’s POV/That’s it. He’s done it. Cutting off our friendship because I wanted Selena just as much as he does made me realise Chris and I can never remain the same but I didn’t think he would give in to my provocation, forcing a mark on Selena. No matter what happens, he should never do that. It made me so furious I almost throw the first punch.But he was oddly calm, he let out a soft sigh and fold his arm studying my movements under his keen grey eyes that continue to probe and annoy me. How could he….how could he?“I understand that you’re getting mad for Selena but if she was really against the mark would she have done what she did this morning?” He questioned with an indifferent look yesterday, though yesterday’s mark was accidental since I didn’t mark her, my wolf did…I was in rut and she came to my room so, you can’t exactly blame me for wanting to claim her” I flinched. I know he’s been distracted these past few days for some reason but he was in rut? His rut had always bee
