Still Alpha River’s P.O.VThe doctor came back with me and the surprised gasp that left her lips told me what had happened was not normal. I paced in front of the window as the doctor ran a thorough check up on her before starting to make some phone calls. I know it was to her family with the way she spoke franticly but respectful at the same time. I couldn’t help but have a bad feeling about all this. I wanted to go in there and comfort her but I know it was just wishful thinking. That blasted spell her brothers put there was doing a damn fine job from preventing me from entering. I was at my wits end here and I couldn’t keep standing on the other side of the wall while my mate lies on the other side. With a deep breath, I opened the door and without hesitation. I closed my eyes and rushed inside. I waited anxiously for the pain I knew was coming but none came. Gingerly opening my eyes, a small smile made its way onto my face when I realized I have been able to enter the room
Chaos’ P.O.VMy eyes flew open the moment my mate walked out of the room. I know he knew I was awake from my coma and was just waiting for me to wake up from my sleep. With all these sudden changes that are going on with my body, I didn’t won’t to risk it and open my eyes. Who knows what I would have done to him here and then? I lie down and listen to my surroundings and when I was confident that no one would be walking in on me anytime soon, I stepped out of bed. It felt good to have my feet back on the ground. After I made sure I was really fit to walk on my own, I cloaked myself and walked out of the room. It felt amazing to walk in the shadows again. Observing everything without anyone knowing you are actually there. I avoided crashing into anyone because it will cause a ruckus I really didn’t need right now. I had just made it to the ground floor when I spotted Matthews and my family heading towards my way. Thankfully their attention wasn’t on me so acting swiftly, I p
“It is not the enemy that lurks outside your home that you should fear but the enemy that you dine and share a home with…” ~ Lucas Chaos An hour later, Chaos and her family made their way to Alpha River’s house and towards the conference room. Kiara was still smiling sweetly whiles the twins and their mother wore blank looks on their faces. As for Chaos, the look on her face was zero to none. Thanks to her new look, she looked scary and somewhat dead and funnily enough, that was exactly how she felt inside. Alpha River sat in his conference room with a frown on his face. His parents and Tricia sat in the room when he didn’t remember sending for them. He had asked and he had been told Matthews had asked them to be here. He in turn questioned Matthews who refused to say anything other than, ‘I was ordered to get them here.’ Matthews had given him the same answer on the tenth questioning and he was about to snap when the door to the conference room burst open. The gasp
Still Chaos’ P.O.V I stood under the full blast of my shower still fully clothed and allowed it to rain all over me. I leaned my head against the wall in my new shower and watched as the water washed the blood of my mate off my body. The ass whooping was never part of my plan. But I felt the urge when he didn’t show any sign of remorse or repentance. That hurt more than knowing he cheated on me. I felt the stinging behind my eyes and I couldn’t help it when they started rushing down my face. Raw pain and tears rocked my body as I let it all out. I fell on my knees and let it all out. The pain, the rejection, the disappointment, the agony, my anger and the deceiving hope I had felt. I cried and cried till all that was left was sniffles and even then, I couldn’t stop. No matter how nonchalant I acted back there, he was still my mate and the bond joining us was still vibrant as the day it was made. Fresh tears trailed down my face as I thought about w
Alpha River’s P.O.V I lay in the hospital bed slightly aware of what was going on around me. I don’t even know what day it is. But one thing is for sure that my nightmares felt real. I’ve never felt anything like that and I don’t want to go through it again. I was also in a shit ton of pain and the pain meds that I am sure the doctors pumped with is not even working. Kaeden has been trying to heal me but there was so little he could do. I seriously can’t believe my mate did this to me. Handed my ass to me on a silver platter. My mother hasn’t left my side since I was admitted and she hasn’t stopped crying too. My father? Nowhere to be found. He was disappointed in me and I couldn’t blame him. Even I was disappointed in me. I clear my mind and start rethinking of all that has happened before my mate got here and when she got here. I flinched internally when I remembered the tears and emotions behind her stone-cold gaze. I couldn’t read her thoughts. She blocked me
Underestimated... All my life, I have been underestimated and in as much as it had been annoying. It had favored me in so many fights and trials. My father died years after I was born. Before I could even walk and talk. His time here on earth was due and he had to return to his world. But every now and then, he makes an appearance to my two older brothers; Lucas and Lucien and I so we know that he's still with us and never forgotten. My mother, Celeste, the Alpha of our pack, raised her kids with an iron fist behind closed doors and spoiled us in the eyes of the pack and world. Because I'm a girl some of you probably think she went easy on me. Well... No... If she trained my brothers five times hard, she trained me fifteen times harder and ruthlessly too at that.She is a tough woman, who had fought so many battles and won and she had scars and tattoos to prove it too... she commanded respect and she has earned it duly. Her warriors and pack members literally worship the ground
After packing, I took opportunity of the time I had left to go around the pack one more time and to tell the few pack members I considered as friends and family goodbye. Now that I was leaving, I will surely miss my training with the warriors and brothers as well as my mother's. I wish I could stay a bit longer before going to my mates pack but even I know that even in my dreams, it will be impossible because my mate wouldn't agree and will throw a tantrum or resort to other means no matter how low to get me to go with him which wouldn't really be necessary and to avoid all that, I just have to go with him peacefully. But if he thinks, he's got himself a fragile docile mate then he's got another thing come. I may not talk much but my silence and temper does show a lot. I had just finished collecting my personal weapons which consisted of a silver sword, a bow and a couple dozens of arrows and my box of daggers from the weapons room when I felt someone pushing against the barrier
Alpha River's POV Ever since I found my mate, I just wanted to cuddle her and smother her with kisses. She may have that tough aura around her or that annoying blank mask on her face all the time but I and my wolf, Kaeden just wanted to treat her like she was the frailest being we've ever set our sights on but I knew she wouldn't want that. Maybe in private but not in public. As soon as we had arrived on their pack ground, I smelled her. It took everything in me to not have sniffed her out and mated with her that very instant. I noticed the realization when she felt the tingles and the moment, she tried to get a whiff of my scent. Too bad I had it cloaked. I saw the suspicions and mistrust that reared their heads and the shooting up of her guard. Intuitive and cautious… I’m impressed. I glanced at her outfit and though she was dressed simple and decked in all black, I couldn’t help but feel hot and bothered. The dress code together with the stance she held and the look on her
