Ariana's POVI blinked and blinked at Henry who was still bringing his face closer to mine. What was he trying to do? Was he trying to kiss me? It really looked like he was trying to kiss me. Why would he want to do that? Did he have feelings for me? Did he like me? Why would he even want to like me? There was nothing special about me or was there? I looked at him in panic right now because his lips were almost on mine and he had a kind of look in his eyes, a look that I couldn't define. I knew Henry was cute. Hell, he was handsome too and his whole physique was okay. He was even a good person too but suddenly, I didn't want him to kiss me. I might have liked him -just as a friend- but I didn't want him kissing me. When he did that, everything was going to change between us and it was not like we even knew each other. We were just starting out as friends and the only things I knew about him were the little things he had told me and also the ones I had heard from Diana. I really want

Ariana's POVThe sound of something crashing resounded throughout the whole space in the carvenous library and all my senses were now turned toward the cause of the sound. I had already forgotten about going to call Alpha Derek as I took tentative steps toward the place, the sounds of my feet echoing throughout the whole space.I walked toward the sound in confidence, my steps never wavering with hesitation. I was certain that the scream I had heard belonged to Henry and I wanted to find him without wasting any time. If I went to call his brother instead of going directly to help him, who knew what fate he would be in by the time we came to find him. I couldn't leave him at the mercy of whatever thing that made to scream like that; I had to get to him as soon as he could.I traced my way toward the sound and as I began to get closer, I began to hear whimpers of pain and they were clearly coming from a human being and a grown up male for that matter. With my heart racing in panic, I co

Ariana's POVSince Henry and I were already standing, we quickly rushed outside the bathroom and past the place where Henry had laid for a while. We went past numerous shelves on a rush, without even bothering to make sure our footsteps echoed less on the floor of the library. We just forged ahead, determined to see who had dared to enter into the Alpha's private library since everyone knew it was out of bounds except to a selected few. I had a good guess on the person who had slammed the door of the library but I wasn't sure yet so I didn't want to jump to conclusions. I wanted to see who the person was with my eyes before I would think of what to do after that.We went ahead -Henry and I- until we bursted out on a rush of nervous energy into the main aisle of the library. From there we were able to see a figure of a person and from the features I could manage to make out from here, I was certain that it was a man even though his back was to us.When we moved closer and I was able t

Ariana's POVI went back to my room after Alpha Derek ordered me to take my leave and I kept wondering what he would say to Henry and what Henry would say to him. I really hoped Henry corroborated with the story I told the Alpha, after all, he had been listening with rapt attention as I narrated everything to his brother.I was hoping that Henry would support my story and not say anything to alter what I had said because if he so much as said another thing different from what I had said, the Alpha was sure to doubt him and he would be in trouble. He had to stick to my story so that everything would be okay for him since what he had been doing when he crashed to the floor was likely not allowed. I knew that it wasn't.After a while of staying in my room, lounging on the couch and doing nothing in particular, I heard the door to the Alpha's quarters slam from next door and I knew that he was back from his office. I had already eaten dinner with the girls before I headed over to his offi

Ariana's POVMy jaw went slack after Claire's unexpected question and I blanched. What did she mean by that? That Henry and I were in a relationship? How was it possible? How did that come about? Henry and I were just friends. I barely even knew him and he barely knew me either. Before I could manage to say anything, Diana spoke before me."Have your seat, Ariana. You can't be standing like that," she said.I gulped and then I nodded before I took my seat at my rightful place on the table. Finally my jaw wasn't slack again and my mouth went back to its proper position before I finally found my voice. "What do you mean by that, Claire? I don't understand what you mean," I said without any hint of hostility in my voice. Claire and I were past that stage now.She fixed me with a piercing look before she spoke. "Don't you understand English? So you and Henry Callan, Diana's brother are in a relationship?"There was something in her voice now that I did not like. There was a type of coolne
