Amelia’s point of view: "There isn't much time left, Amelia." Alejandro said, refering to the two days I had asked for to make a decision. "I need more time." I shook my head. "You need to make a decision, Amelia. I've left my pack unattended. I can't be gone for a long time." He stated. "I'm not keeping you here. You are free to leave whenever you want." I refuted. "I'm not leaving without you." He insisted as his arms around me tightened. "Let go of me, Alejandro! You are hurting me." I wiggled to get out of his grasp only to freeze in surprise, mildly startled when I felt his erection."What the hell?" I exclaimed as I tried to get off him. "I'm telling you, I'm not leaving you." He stated decisively as his eyes trailed down to his arms around me before getting locked with mine once again. "I'm telling you to leave me now, you jerk!" I pinched him on the arm. "Ah!" He cried out. I didn't waste another second in getting off him when his hold around me loosened up. "Why di
Alejandro's point of view: "Tell me, did you find your mate, Alejandro?" Elder Elius questioned. I gulped as I tried to hold his gaze. I cleared my throat before replying, "Yes, I met her." "Can you tell us who -" "Who is she?" Elder Ava asked, interrupting Elder Elius. "Her name is Amelia." I began but paused when I realized that I couldn't really tell them about Amelia's being a human.Werewolves never had human mates. And here, it was about the Lycan king. It never happened before that a Lycan king would be mated to a human. At least, it was unheard of until now. "Where is she? Why did you not introduce her to the pack?" Ava bombarded me with her questions. "She hates me." I said after racking my mind for something to say regarding Amelia's unwillingness to accompany me back to the pack. "What? She hates you? But why? What did you do?" Ava continued. Her eyes were lit up with slight displeasure which was directed towards me. I had to force Leo into submission when he was
Alejandro’s point of view: How dare he threaten to take my mate? Enraged, my wolf forced me to shift midway. Leo was overlapping my human body as I felt my back aching before two large, dark and leathery black wings sprung up from my back, effectively ripping through the back of my shirt in the process. I could do nothing to stop him as I felt furious myself. How dare the Vampire king threaten to take Amelia away from me? How the fuck did he even get this letter in here? I growled at the thought of there being a possible traitor in my pack. Amelia’s point of view: I was tidying up my bedroom when I felt agitated. An uneasy feeling began in my stomach. I started to fidget. I frowned in confusion but continued to sweep the floor until I was forced to let go of the broom. My fingers felt numb and cold. It was as if I couldn’t feel them at all. All of a sudden, I felt like all the air got knocked out of me. I let out a sharp hiss of pain and stumbled forward. I caught myself by
Amelia's point of view:"Don't tell me you're actually scared of me?" I asked with a chuckle. Ivan tsked. "Why would I be scared of you? You're a human!" He rollled his eyes at me. "Just admit it." I leaned closer before whispering into his ear. "I won't tell anyone that you, a vampire, is scared of me, a human."When I leaned back to look at him."I'm not scared of you." He raised an eyebrow, his chin lifting in what I recognized as a look very close to dominating. "Don't look at me like that!" I smacked the back of his head. He jerked away from my hand, his eyes and his mouth wide opened in utter disbelief as he stared down at me. "Did you just hit me?"I simply gave a dismissive wave of a hand and rolled my eyes at him. "What was that for?" He ran a hand frustratingly through his hair to check whether it got messy but he wasn't aware that he was messing it up much more than it already was. "There was a mosquito." I shrugged. "Are you really not scared of me?" He arched a bro
Alejandro's point of view: Ivan was levitated off the ground. I moved to the side to see who was standing in front of him. With a gasp, I stared at Amelia in shock. She had her fingers around Ivan's throat. She was strangling him with his feet dangling up in the air... with just one hand. Amelia's eyes had changed color. Her aroused eyes shone emerald green with the pupils seemingly thin, thinner than vampires. I stepped forward but froze when our eyes met.Leo whined, refusing to budge from where we were standing when her emerald green eyes gazed right into my wolf's yellow ones. What the hell? Why would Leo be afraid of our mate? 'What's wrong, Leo?' I asked my wolf as he shifted his eyes downwards. 'I don't know but it wouldn't be wise to go near Amelia right now.' Leo warned. He sounded wary as he forced me to take a step back. 'But why? There must be something, right? How do you feel right now?' I stared down at the earthworms slithering around in the soiled ground. Leo
Alejandro’s point of view: I kept pacing around in her bedroom waiting for her to wake up. She was still unconscious. It’s been more than an hour already. When will she wake up? Should I be worried? Should I take her to the hospital? She’s a human. She isn’t like our kind but again, after what happened in the forest I don’t know what to think about that. I’ve checked her pulse though. It was normal. She was just resting. ‘Leo, is everything okay?’ I asked my wolf when I noticed that he was being oddly quiet. ‘Yeah, I’m just thinking about our mate. She’s not like us. She’s definitely a shape-shifter but I don’t know which one.’ He voiced out. ‘She’s very human though.’ I argued, refusing to believe him. Still, there was a part of me on edge after seeing that side of Amelia in the forest. If she was a shape-shifter like us, what was she? Could she be a vampire? Is that why the vampire king wants her? Sighing, I ran my fingers through my hair out of frustration. Nothing was mak
Amelia’s point of view: Ever since I woke up, I’d felt weird but I couldn’t tell Alejandro about it. It felt like my body had been drained of its energy. It wasn’t the first time I’d felt this way. This feeling… I’d never forget it. Something almost identical to what had happened once in the forest with those three feral animals when I’d been just a kid happened all over again but this time, with Ivan. Likewise, I couldn’t remember anything though. Was it me who’d killed those feral animals? If so, was Ivan alright or was he dead? What did I do to him? Did Alejandro know what had happened? Did he see anything at all? But, he would tell me about it, right? What was the point in hiding it from me… unless it was something I wasn’t ready to take in? I wanted to scream to let out my frustration but knowing there was a Lycan King who had sensitive ears roaming around in my kitchen down there, I stopped myself right on time. Instead, I gripped my bed sheets and gritted my teeth together
Amelia’s point of view: “Too bad you aren’t me,” I shouted at him but his words got me thinking, will I really end up choosing him?I shook my head and pulled the bed sheets off me to get up but a pair of hands stopped me midway. “What are you doing? Do you need something? Let me know, I’ll bring it for you. You don’t have to get up.”“No, I’m okay.” I shook my head and proceeded to get up.“No, you’re not. You need to rest.” He said quite sternly.“Alejandro, I’m fine.” I met his eyes. “I feel a lot better.” I reassured him.“But still, why don’t you rest some more?”“Alejandro –”“Amelia.”I sighed in defeat, my shoulders sagged. “I need –”“Yeah, tell me what you need. I’ll bring it for you.” He seemed satisfied that I’d stopped arguing with him.“I need to pee.” I told him, avoiding his gaze as my cheeks heated up in embarrassment.Alejandro quickly averted his eyes elsewhere and stepped back to give me some space to get up as he rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly.When I walk
