That awkward silence before you puts not only your life but the life of your unborn pup, your sister and your mate in danger. For some reason, I felt responsible for this war. If I wasn't Aiden mate, nothing like this would have happened. He would chosen Rebecca and maybe, just maybe everyone would be happy. Maybe if I lost my virginity before the season none of this would have happened. The Seer and Luna would have still been alive. The emotions overwhelmed me, and I couldn't stop shaking. "You don't have to do this. Let me fight for my pack, Euphoria. This is my job, not only to protect you but my pack. You are taking too much responsibility and I don't like it. Why are you so stubborn?" He took my hands in his, but what he didn't understand was that this was not about him. I could never rest knowing I did nothing, while people were fighting for a war my presence caused. If I can fight and save even one life, I would be happy. "Babe, like I said before there is nothing you can
Aiden. It shouldn't have surprised me much when I lifted my head, and Euphoria was nowhere to be found. That woman doesn't listen to no one. I hated it, but again I love that she stood her ground.It was a two way edged sword. I fought about four wolves at the east side, and by the time we were done, we had one casualty on our side. I didn't know this guy's much, but damn it, they could fight. One wolf was still writhing on the floor with a stab wound. This war may be contained only to the pack house but it was going to get messy. I snapped his neck as a sign of mercy. I didn't want anyone to suffer but I can't pretend to not like seeing those against me and the welfare of this pack suffer. I ran into the house, and before I could reach the kitchen door someone pulled me back, and I couldn't help but growl ready to fight. "Jerome, don't ever do that again, we are in the middle of the fight. I could have badly hurt you." I told the sad looking Beta. "Amy is hurt, I am sorry but
"You…" she hissed and I just rolled my eyes at her. I mean I knew she was in the pack house, but really did I have to bump into her right now? Don't I have too much on my plate already?"Rebecca, I don't have time for your feeble threats. I didn't come here for you, and frankly you're not even worth my time." I tried to pass her but she stepped in my way. "What are you doing here? Didn't you get locked out of the pack house? Why are you bent on ruining my life? This is not your fight, just fucken die, is that so hard to do?" She growled, and seriously. I swear to the goddess, there was something wrong with this girl. If it wasn't for the child in her womb, I would have killed her in an instant but the words the Seer said before she died stayed with me. Her pup was important to this pack. "You've already tried but failed miserably. Just like your parents will do, when trying to take what doesn't belong to them. Was being a Beta not enough power? Did they have to drag this pack in
"You did what, now?" "Let me explain. Don't strain yourself, you're still hurt." I tried to calm her down. She was in the infirmary for four days, and I couldn't even go to visit in a bit to avoid running into Aiden or Rebecca. My stomach was starting to show, the curse of being a werewolf. The pup was growing too fast. "Do I look feeble to you? I was shot in the fucken stomach, not in the heart. You fucken tell me right now, why did you give that bitch, may I add that she almost killed you and your pup, the time to not only take your man but the title you fought so hard, and put yourself in danger for?" She said that in one breath. She was angry, and I didn't blame her, the only reason she got hurt was because she was supporting me, fighting for me but right now she feels betrayed and who could blame her? "Look, I am sorry you got hurt but I begged you to stay back, and I have a reason why I let things be. It's not yet my time to rule this pack, believe me when I say I have a va
"Offer to marry my mate again, and you're dead meat! Do you hear me boy?" Aiden growled lowly, and I could see Terence shiver at the threat. "I am sorry, Alpha Aiden." He bowed in respect but he had nothing to be sorry about. He was trying to protect me, and that was sweet of him because truly, I know once people know that I am or was carrying since I don't plan to go out until the pup is born, rumours are going to spread like wildfire. "You have nothing to be sorry about. Your offer was sweet, and Aiden is just being a jerk even after you and your father helped him." I spat, glaring at Aiden who didn't even bat an eyelash at my look. Was I really looking that ugly? My gaze didn't affect anyone anymore. It must be this nose. "Should I kiss his ass to show gratitude? You're mine Euphoria and I don't care who helped me do what, I am not going to let a soul take you or our pup away from me. I am tired of the mistakes from the season. I am getting coronated in the next two days, sinc
"Tell me everything!" He demanded, like I am one of his pack members. "Firstly Mr Alpha you talk to me in that manner. I am your mate not one of your pack members. You don't demand things from me, we need to have a mutual respect for each other." I pouted, angrily. How dare he? Or maybe I was just stalling because I didn't know how to start or where to even start. Since the death of his mother he hasn't once asked me what happened that day. He knew that his uncle pulled the trigger but he didn't know that he said I was the reason he was doing it. His mother died because of me, died because I didn't listen and tried to get answers all by myself. "Yes, that's the part you should understand too. We are mates, we need to discuss things. You can't just wake up one day and decide for me whom I should be with, and you think I will be stupid enough to follow without question. I want to know the reason why I shouldn't brag about finding a rare jam like you to the world, and tell them we a
The truth hurts, that's what they always say which is true in my opinion since lying seems to be the worst thing, but that's until now. Telling Aiden the truth wasn't the best idea at this stage. I, and Rebecca were in the first and very crucial stage of the pregnancy. The pup hadn't developed enough to survive outside the womb. But that was not what was eating me up, I was wondering if I would have been giving up so much if I didn't know that the child would be an Alpha? Would I let Rebecca kill herself? Was I really doing this for Rebecca or myself? Most importantly, was this worth hurting my mate? I thought as I was walking upstairs to look for Amy. I opened her bedroom door but she wasn't there. The clothes she had worn to the memorial service were laid on the bed, and the scent of salt water filled the room. She was crying, and I knew she wasn't that far. I went straight to the bedroom window that was open and looked out and I saw a cloud of smoke on the roof. She really was
"He isn't the one that killed father, right? Why are you punishing the poor man for the mistakes he didn't commit? He is already receiving poor support from Aiden who was supposed to be his best friend. Received nothing but shame from his father, bad stepmom and now you? I am sorry you're hurt, I loved father as much as you loved him, but he would want you to be happy Amy, and if the man that can do that is Jerome, so be it. I don't understand why you're doing this, really." I told her.I don't know since when I was this person because the truth is, if you had told me weeks back, just before the season that my own father was murdered I would have gone batshit crazy, and tried with everything I have got to get the killer and punish them myself, no matter who they were. Now, I just want peace, crave it. I am tired of all this fighting and revenge, it's getting too much. When will it end?"For many years, I didn't know what I wanted to be, Eva. My purpose in life. When others wanted to
