I was at the store, buying some late-night snacks for Kristin and I, who was still at our dorm. As I walked out of the store and onto the parking lot when I saw to figures who seemed to be male on the opposite side of the street, I couldn’t see much with the dim lights of the streetlamps. As I looked closer I saw that it was them, more specifically him. I felt my heart almost pound out of my chest, and my mouth fell open "Ashton?" I whispered softly, but my whisper seemed to travel all the way to him. Ashton and Josh both turned to look my way. I hear him shout my name and before I knew what happened, I'm being pulled into a chest. How did he find me?"Evie." Ashton says which sounded like he was almost out of breath, as if he is in shock from seeing me."Let go of me." I spit out angrily. Because yes I was angry, and most of all hurt. But I wouldn’t let him see that."I can't." He whispers softly in my ear."I don&r

Ashton's POVAshton POVI watched as my mate, who I just marked, ran away. My wolf and I had mixed feelings; on one hand we finally marked our beautiful mate but the look in her green eyes she gave us almost broke us. She looked frightened of us, she was angry at us, she fucking threatened us with a swiss army knife. She could have hurt herself. But she looked like she really hated us and ordered me to stay away. I felt my wolf whimpering at the thought of never seeing our mate again. But I'm going to make sure that doesn't happen.''Ashton" Josh shouted, and I growled at him. "Yes, I know you're still the Alpha, but what the fuck did you just do." This time I growled harder."I just marked my mate, something I should have done the moment I met her." I answered in a calm tone, trying to keep my wolf at bay."You know what is going to happen right, you forced marked her. If she's not accepting the mark she could die. If you're not completely the mat

Alex POVWhen I was listening to Evie's story, I got so angry, she didn’t even know what was happening. How could someone do this to their mate. I wish Evie were my mate. I would treat her like the queen she is supposed to be, or should I say Luna. How can someone deliberately hurt their own mate.I felt like I was almost shifting because I was so angry. I wanted to choose Evie as my chosen mate, because I still hadn’t found mine and I felt comfortable with the idea of having her as my mate. But now, that's not even possible anymore. She's wearing his mark, Alpha Ashton of the Shadow pack. I heard the stories about him, he slept with almost every she-wolf in his pack. And apparently even after he found his mate. The pain she must have been trough and not even knowing why makes me and my wolf even more angry.I needed to find a way to help Evie, I don't know how yet but maybe one of the elders know how to help her. When Evie was finished with her stor

Kristin went to school this morning, she had a later class than I did, at 10, I think. So, when she woke up, she turned on the music to listen to some pop music. Which was not a nice way to wake up, even if it was the second time. Now don't get me wrong I like pop music sometimes, I mean I like Justin Timberlake, but not early in the morning before I had my coffee. I'm more of an old school music kind of girl, like Bon Jovi and Queen and I kind of like country music in the morning. When she realized I was still at home and not yet at school she asked why, of course. So, I just said my neck hurt and that was believable enough. I mean it kind of does, not the kind I expected it to hurt, more like a tingling feeling. It's kind of irritating to be honest.When I finally got out of bed, deciding I couldn't go to sleep for the 3rd time this morning, I went to the bathroom to do my business. Got the braids out of my hair, now it was flowing in waves around my face and not the boring

Kristin just ran into our dorm saying something had happened. "Okay what's wrong?" I asked looking confused at my shocked best friend. "Okay so I was just shopping for some groceries, because well you dropped the last ones. Not that I'm complaining. I mean I would probably drop them too if something like that would happen to me. But I got some vegetables and frui- "Kristin focus, what happened" I asked. "Oh yeah sorry, well as I walked out of the grocery story. I might have seen your ex." "Huh? What ex?" I replied looking curious. "Ashton, do you have any other exes I don't know about? Anyway, I think Ashton is in town" She said still with a shocked face. "Oh, that ex, I know" I replied. Seriously that's it? "What do you mean that's it. Wait, you knew? And you didn't tell me." "Yeah, uhm I saw him already" Seriously what should I tell her, that he bit me, that that is the reason I knew he was in town. For me.
