It took a little over three hours to get today's training out of the way and my muscles burned like a bitch. Isaac had been reluctant to let me go, claiming I still needed a lot of work. I had begged him and was able to convince him that I wouldn't be able to get better in just one day if I was on the brink of death.I know I was getting a little better and soon, I'll be ploughing Isaac into the ground, I just need maybe a year to do that. When Isaac finally decided to let me go, I dragged myself achingly to the room hoping to sleep the pain off after a long shower but the day wasn't going the way I wanted at all.I found Lily and Emily waiting in front of my door. They claimed we haven't hung out together in a while and now they were both free, I couldn't escape it.Thankfully, they let me take a shower before dragging me off to Lily’s room. As soon as we entered their apartment, I snatched the blanket hanging from a chair and tucked myself in the coach and thankfully, they let me b

I barely see Zion these days since the dungeon. He was avoiding me and it's not like I could blame him. I turned the other way the moment I see him and he had gotten the message except now I was the one slowly going crazy. I needed him and now I felt like a crack addict which was why I am on my way to his office right now. Some people tried to say hi to me but I paid them no attention. I had one goal in mind and that was my only focus. My heart was beating faster as Zion’s office came into focus. I was a little disoriented and the mate bond was choking me up. I knew it would probably be worse for Zion but he won't try to make me uncomfortable so he'll try to bear it alone.I push the door open, almost ripping it from its hinges. Zion was alone and he sat up with my entrance, a hitched brow and a ghost smirk on that annoying handsome face.He pushed his chair back and watched me approach him with fury in my eyes.I straddle his lap and his hands went around my waist instinctively. My

My heart was thumping in my chest while I waited for Zion in front of the pack house. It was time for him to leave on his one day trip.While I was eager for him to go so I could go back to that forest and check it out, I also started missing him badly. He was in his office going over some last minute plans with Jamie and Isaac. We argued earlier for him to take more men than the two he was travelling with but he was so persistent on being stubborn. He claimed he was strong enough to protect himself and was only taking the two guards because Jamie and Isaac had insisted which I was also grateful for. “I told you not to wait outside” I turn to see Zion walking towards me with Jamie, Isaac and two other warriors. The ones who would be joining him on the trip.“Are you ready to leave now?” My voice came out shaky, the opposite of what I wanted. He looked towards the guys with him and gave a silent command to them. They gave me a curt nod before leaving the lounge so it was just me and

I was raging mad as I marched to my room. Tears of frustration threatened to escape my eyes but I held them back. I won't allow Zion to make me cry. My eyes zero in on a note pasted on my door with tape. I ripped the note and opened it to see what was in it. The note was written in dried blood.Traitor. You mated with the enemy. You deserve to be killed.I dropped the note on the floor and flew to the other side of the door. My body trembled with terror. My heart is racing a million miles per minute. Heavy footsteps run towards me and I didn't have to look up to know it was Zion. He ripped me off the floor and tugged me to his chest which I went willingly.One of his hands found my nape and the other went around my waist, holding me tight to his chest. His heart was also beating fast and I tear up when I realized he was afraid for me.“What is it, sweetheart? Are you hurt? Did something happen? Tell me” His voice was urgent and they trembled a little but he wasn't letting me go.I

I was a little taken aback by Lily’s question and it had me thinking of so many reasons at once. She noticed my discomfort and scooted closer, maybe to provide comfort.“I haven’t shifted since that night and I even haven’t thought about shifting before. Maybe my mind has accepted or related my shifting to my trauma and moved it to the back of my mind” It was the first time I was talking about shifting. I couldn’t even remember the colour of my wolf anymore. It was like she didn’t even exist and Violet has been so patient with me, not even voicing out that she needed to be let free. “You shouldn’t stay for too long without shifting and it’s been over six months since you came here, that is too long even for your wolf. She may not want you to feel bad so she’ll keep her feeling for you but I’m sure she is restless and not being out for so long is affecting her much harder than she lets on”Lily was right and it made me feel horrible for neglecting my wolf and not thinking about her.
