Why is she here? What is she doing here? How was she able to find me?”I step back from her. Just as her body responds to me, mine also longs for her touch. That night is the most peace night in a long time, she is the reason for that.I can't allow her stay here with me. She might have an ulterior motive and I am not ready to deal with that.She stares at me coldly. There’s defiance in her eyes, one I remember only as a spark when she left me that night without saying goodbye.A night I can’t forget.“Please leave!” I say calmly, trying to make her leave.But she doesn't flinch or move, I know she is stubborn since our first meeting. But what I don't know is that, she’s also fearless.“They brought me here.” she reply, her voice audible.“They?”“The Council.” Her voice is firm now. “Why are you acting like this is news to you?”I look at her confused, trying to understand the words I heard.Mirelle hurries into the room, her grey cloak dragging behind her. I perceive herb as she got

I notice him before he sees me. Or maybe it is the other way round because as soon as my eyes land on him, he stops walking.Rex stands at the far end of the courtyard, with anger plaster on his face. The sun catches on his skin, the faint sheen of sweat making him look too real, too alive for someone I’ve promised myself to despise.Every instinct in me says to turn back, to leave before he notices me. But my legs don’t listen. My chest tightens, my wolf stirring beneath the surface like it recognizes him before my mind does.Then his head tilts slightly. Those eyes sharp, storm-dark lock onto me, and I know it’s too late.“You are running already?” He asks, mockery obvious in his tone.“The game is yet to start and you are backing off already. It's such a shame.”“Running?” I scoff, rolling my eyes. “Me? Running? You wish!” He strolls towards me slowly, his expression looking like a smirk and a warning. “Really? You look like you just saw a ghost earlier. You are scared."My pul

The memory from three days ago comes back to me, when I see Rex walking in the garden this morning. I try to wipe off the image of the most powerful Alpha, Rex, whining in pain as something invisible crushes him from the inside.I still remember the way his breath came out weakly, the way he squeezes his face in pain as he tries moving his body. The picture haunts me whenever I shut my eyes.I also remember how my body responds to his touch, even in pain. It's like he transferred all he's feeling to me at that moment. I now struggle to eat, sleep or even think straight. All I could feel is the pain crawl through my veins.That afternoon a thought hit me and I decide to pay Mirelle a visit. I wait for the sun to go down before walking to her place.My body tenses as I walk down to see her, not knowing what to expect. The calmness that surrounds her place makes me shiver, my head trembling as I knock on her door.I knock once. Before I can do it again the door opens. Mirelle looks at me

I pin me to the wall, his hand wraps around my neck squeezing it tightly. Tears gathered in my eyes, I attempt to release myself from him but he wasn't bugling.“I shouldn't have said anything about his former mate, now I'm going to die,”“R… Rex,” I cried out slowly. “Ple…Please stop, you are hurting me.”“How dare you talk about her,” he fires, his face darkens. “What gave you the right?”I don't try to argue or fight back, he is not reasonable now.“I…I'm sorry,” I beg, hoping he would listen. “Ple…please just stop.”The tears roll down my cheeks, he flinches, gradually releasing his grip on me. I cough out, my throat sore and in pain.“I told you to stay away from me but you won't listen,” he barks.“I also don't want to be next to you but one way or the other, I end up where you are,” I explain.“That's why I ask you to leave this pack, you are not safe, as long as you are next to me.” He looks away.“Is it because of the curse?” The words rush out before I can stop them. I beat

It's been a couple of days since the conversation with Rex, I am bored out of my mind. It's a cold morning and the weather feels nice, I want to get get some training done, use it to get my mind off Rex.I hop on one feet, switching to the other, I fake trying to throw the dagger as I practice the motion of the stances. I am keeping into the right rhythm, I release the blade and it piecre through the air, it strike the wooden target post. Good, I take another swing and another till I strike the target with lesser thing.Then I feel it. That scent.It’s faint at first earth, pine, the wild musk of home. The air stills in my lungs before I even turn.“Kael,” I whisper, and the word tastes like memory.Out of the shadow in one of the human shaped target post, he walks out, wearing a dark attire and a cloak. These a strange look in his eyes, wild like a preparation for battle.“What the hell are you doing here?” I breathe, backing up before my heart can betray me.He doesn’t answer right
