Support him silently
.It would be a lie if she said that it didn’t hurt. The way Carter was putting the matter as if she has betrayed him or something, she just wanted to know the past that belonged to her not anyone else, damn it. She wasn’t poking her nose in his business, it was hers! She wrenched herself away from him trying to put some distance between the two of them because Carter being right in her face caused her to feel things she didn’t want to right now. “ I do trust you, but what about you? You just keep repeating the same thing, trying to keep me in the dark when I don’t want to. What are you even trying to hide? Do you know how hard it is to keep my sanity when all of them look at me like I am committing some sort of sin by staying with you! if I have done something wrong then I have the right to know, you just can’t expect to play a dominant she wolf like me by her nose expecting that I will just follow along with what you want, that’s not me.&rd

Your father died to save you
“ how much do you know?” Once Carter has scooped her up and brought her back to the bedroom, he handed her a set of dry clothes and a towel and when she finished drying her hair and changed into the clothes he has give her, he went straight to the point as he asked her about the one question she wanted to avoid answering. “ Carter-”“ Don’t even think about bullshitting me darling, I can always give Brandon a visit and find out the truth by either hook or crook, it’s up to you how you want to deal with this matter.” His voice was agonisingly calm as if the person he was talking about wasn’t his uncle but some stranger he can obliterate at any moment.Thalia hated this calm in his voice, it made him painfully detached as if she couldn’t even touch him, she glared at him, “ He is your uncle.”Carter lifted a shoulder, his eyes glinting with an amusing glint, “ Right now, he

Submit to him
“Hey?” Thalia had been waiting for Carter to return but the latter seemed to be lost in his own world, he hadn’t been the same ever since he returned. That long expression coupled with the dark energy that was rolling off him like black fumes was enough to let her know that something was up, but what exactly, she had no idea about it and Carter didn’t look like he was going to let the thing that was eating him out any time soon either. For two hours she left him alone to brood but Carter was still sitting on the porch with his sixth can of beer and staring at the distance, and it has been bothering her a lot. Carter said nothing, but he did lift his face to meet her eyes and the sober look on his face squeezed her heart. “ Something wrong?”“ Did you go to see Brandon today?” he asked, she knew that he was avoiding talking about the matter that was upsetting him but she still went along and shook her head and when he narrowed hi

A mask of fury
Carter brought Thalia back to the lodge because he hadn’t held back, as the aftermath Thalia fell unconscious. As he laid her on the bed, Carter didn’t want to let her go, she was like melted wax in his arms. Nuzzling her, he pressed a kiss on her temple and pulled away. Once he was done tucking her in, he made his way out of the room and headed to the office, yesterday he was too busy to take care of Brandon now was a good time to have a good chat with his uncle. As he stridden inside the room, Carter noticed that Brandon was already sitting in a chair with his chin propped on his clenched fist. Brandon didn’t look like he was scared or anxious instead he looked bored like he was just going through the motion and taking care of business that he should be taking care of and nothing more, however, Carter was far too experienced to be fooled, that unnatural stiffness of Brandon told him that he was trying his best not to fidget under his alpha vibes.

Triggered
Trigger warning- mention of gruesome scene. Waking up to a loud bang wasn’t in her plan. Look, she wasn’t good with surprises, they always came with a heart jolting excitement or terror and Thalia wasn’t good with either of them. When that loud bang echoed around the lodge, Thalia woke up with a startled jolt that did nothing but further intensified the disorientation she was in, blinking her eyes she tried to focus, clearing off the hazy mist that was making it difficult for her to have a clear vision. Thalia looked around, there was no one…the room was the same as ever- dark and silent.Frowning she brushed her hair off her face and stood up from the bed, though she was asleep, Thalia had a feeling that she didn’t imagine that loud sound of something falling. She slowly walked out of the room, heart thudding violently- the lodge was doused in an inky veil of darkness, obviously, when Carter left, he didn’t thin

Guilty
Thalia felt her teeth clattering, she couldn’t believe what she had just done. She killed someone, sure the shifter hunter and that jackal who was accompanying him did barge into their lodge, ruined the canvases on which she has been working for so long but that was not a justified reason for her reaction. She killed that human and she might have done the same to that jackal shifter who helped that hunter intrude in their territory if she got her hands on him, what the hell was wrong with her? She trembled and choked on a sob as goosebumps broke all over her arms when she sensed the sticky and gooey blood seep through her clothes, it was so horrifying - she was so horrifying. She couldn’t remember what she was doing and how she even reached there but there was one thing that she could remember - she enjoyed it. She was enjoying the terror in the eyes of that human, the scent of his blood that was clogging the air was freaking addictive, she had clawed him ag

I will do anything.
“Just spit it out, I can see that you want to say something,” After Carter scooped her up and brought her back to their bedroom, he settled her down on the bed. Thalia had been silent and obedient throughout the entire time, he was carrying her in his arms, but her face was scrunched up like she just sucked an entire lemon. This was something, Thalia did a lot when she wanted to ask something but was holding herself back, “ I am not going to get mad.” She peeked through those dark locks and hesitatingly said, “ You promise?”“ I promise that no matter what you say I won’t get mad.” He said picking up a towel as he started to dry Thalia’s hair, even though he gave her his promise Thalia didn’t say anything outright, instead she seemed to be brooding over the entire thing. Carter didn’t rush her and continued doing what he was doing, he knew that though their relationship couldn’t be cons

He forgot her birthday
Once Thalia’s breathing smoothed, Carter got off his bed and walked out of the lodge, he was heading to his office, since the matter of infiltration was yet to deal with. He was just about to enter the office when the heavy discussion inside the office seized and everyone went silent. He raised a brow as he sauntered inside. “ By all means please continue,”Jake sighed as he begrudgingly looked away from Dan and walked back to his designated place that was right beside him, as Carter took his seat, Jake sidled next to him with a heavy disappointed sigh. “Dan here thinks that we missed checking the security measures but I can assure you that we did not- I am the one who is responsible for taking care of them and I will never make that mistake.”Dan snorted from the recliner he was sitting on, arms crossed in front, he stared at Jake with a suspicious glint in his eyes. “ Everyone here knows how it went the last time, so I don’t

Date night in the forest clearing.
Her foot caught on something again and Thalia almost let out a string of curses as she nearly tumbled on her butt. If not for Carter who was holding her arm and kept her upright, she would have almost fallen to the ground. She hissed, as she straightened up. “ Can you at least take this blindfold off and let me walk on my own, I am so over this.”“ We are almost there, sugar.” Carter assured her but his assurance meant jackass to her when all she could do was ‘ black’. She hated black or anything that had to do with the dark.“ You said the same thing half an hour-ouch” as she stepped into a small hole, Thalia let out a wince. She inhaled sharply and gritted out, “ Half an hour ago.”“ Darling, I can assure you that we have only been walking for ten minutes.”She snapped her teeth at him but she knew he wouldn’t even notice it, since she had no idea where the hell his face was,

Music box
Thalia couldn’t put how grateful she was feeling at the moment. Her heart was full of warmth and fuzziness, the last time she celebrated her birthday like this was when she was with the pick pocketer group. A bunch of silly kids had shoplifted a dry fruit cupcake from a department store and picked a half-burnt candle from the trash can to stick it on her little cupcake. There was nothing memorable about that birthday but she was grateful to the group of kids who thought of her back then and she was just as grateful to Carter for this surprise. “ I don’t know how to tell you but I feel like my heart is soaking in honey, it's all sweet and fuzzy.” Like she has drunk quite a lot of sweet fruit wine. “ you are the man, you know that Carter Atherton?”He just laughed, really pleased to see her happy. Even his wolf was feeling a little smug about being the cause of her happiness. See, they were not that bad everyone made them. “ Why n
