AEGEN’POVThe whole weekend past with no sign of Ianna. I wondered where she was or what had happened to her. since we met and started training, she never missed a day and now she missed the whole weekend.I went to our spot everyday and stayed there for hours and she never showed. I was beginning to worry about her, that maybe someone found out about her and did something to her.But I disregarded that thought. Ianna didn’t even want to shift in front of me, I didn’t think she would shift in front of anyone else. Then what could have happened?I thought about what she said the last time we met, she said people were already calling her a curse, what was that about? I rushed to the control room to my head of security.“I was wondering when you will show.” She said and I had hope that she might have found something. “I am here now, what have you found?” I asked taking a seat next to her keepi
IANNA’S POVIt was the Saturday of Jeyden’s eighteenth birthday, and I was still locked in my room and still soiled with blood from last weekend as they refused to let me out of the room.My mother was afraid that I would go to the party and ruin things while my sister was afraid that Jeyden might not reject me after all. She kept coming into my room and asking me to accept Jeyden’s rejection when he does reject me.All that time, I kept my mouth shut, they didn’t allow me to go out of my room and take a bath or bring me water to bath. All they did was to bring me water to drink and a dry loaf of bread.They took my phone that day maybe to prevent me from having contact with the outside world. I was a prisoner in my own home. All because of a mate I was going to reject anyway.I thought of telling them that, but I knew they would not believe me since they think I lied about everything. The only option they had was to lock me up in the room and let me rot. But I was not going to allow
IANNA’S POVWhen I got close to the packhouse, I stopped and admired the night. it was beautiful with clear skies; the stars were out, and it was like they were there to cheer me on. The moon was like a proud mother watching her daughter taking her first step wearing a smile on her face.Like she was saying, go on, spread your wings and fly but I will be here when you fall to pick you up and lift you up until you reach your potential. I smiled when I thought of it like that.I had such an overactive imagination; my mother would never look at me with pride or anything else other than disdain. Even now, after this, I will get it from her. she might even kill me this time.As I got closer, I saw all the beautiful and expensive cars that kept arriving there. People coming out of them looking fabulous in their evening attires. I envied those people; their lives were much better than mine.I wished I could be just like them at least once. To live a life where I won’t have to worry about my
IANNA’S POVThere were many ahhhs, oh, Woo’s going around when I said that. My sister looked like she was going to pass out. “Ianna!” came the voice of my mother but I did not turn. I was not done with what I came to do.“What is wrong with you girl, get out of here!” the alpha bellowed but I stood firm. “Ianna what are you doing?” Jeyden asked and I looked at him with nothing but anger and disappointment.Now that I was the one humiliating him it did not feel nice, how the hell did he think it was going to feel when he did the same to me? selfish bastard!“I am rejecting you, young alpha, please accept my rejection so that I can leave, as you can see no one wants me here including you. So, just accept so that everyone can go back to the party.”I said with so much confidence and my voice bold and unwavering. I did not know where I got the confidence from, but I was not backing down.My mother got to me and tried pulling me by the arm, but I roughly pulled my arm away from her keeping
IANNA’S POVI slowly stood up from the couch and left the room. Leaving my mother standing there seething with anger. I walked up the stairs and pack what little I could carry then walked down the stairs.When I got down, my mother and sister were standing there watching me. I walked to the front door and opened the door. then looked back at the people I called a family and I felt nothing.I looked at the house I grew up in and there were no memories I would carry with me besides those of the abuse I endured in that house. I sighed wondering what my father felt when he left this house.I walked out the door closing it behind me, my heart ached. Not because I was leaving but because my mother, the woman who gave birth to me didn’t care whether I live or die.Which made me wonder why she kept me in the first place. Like she said, she should have given me away long ago and maybe my life would have been different.But for sure hers would have been much better and much easier without me. w
AEGEN’S POVMy phone vibrated just when the alpha and Luna were called on stage to join their son who was standing on stage with a pretentious looking girl. I went outside to answer the call and when I got back inside there was silence and I saw people going out the side door.“Okay people, the party can still go on. Have some food and refreshments.” The alpha said. I looked at my warrior. “What did I miss?” he shrugged with a smile on his face and for him that could only mean one thing, drama.“Man, you should have been here, you missed the drama that just happened now, you see the little boy you know, Mr. party, that girl he was standing with on stage was not his mate. His mate came in here and rejected him in front of everyone, it was hilarious, it seemed like the Alpha and Luna didn't even know he had a mate and the boy looked like he wanted to cry when the girl rejected him.” Oh, Damon with the drama.“I am thinking the blond with the boy was the reason the hot girl rejected him
IANNA’S POVI was fucked and I knew it. “Sandra” I called to my wolf, not because I knew with her by my side I will prevail. No, that was not it. I called her because I wanted to hear her voice one more time before I die.“Ianna, you will see things that… just give me control. Don’t think about it because there is no time, just do it.” I did not have to think about anything.If I was going to die, then I was going to shift into my wolf form for the last time. I only shifted twice, and it felt good each time.So, if this was my last shift then I was going to do it without hesitation. So, when Sandra asked me to give her control, I did not hesitate to do so.I dropped the log I was carrying and gave my wolf full control. I knew there was no way we were going to get out of that alive.The rogues in the bushes came out in numbers, well, that was bad for me because I didn’t think I was going to get the welcoming committee as soon as I arrived but here, we are.I knew my fighting skills in
IANNA’POVBlood oozed out of the wound fast making me feel dizzy. I thought I was going to pass out soon. I looked around trying to find something to stop the bleeding with when the blood started coming out slower and slower.I was shocked thinking that I had bled out all the blood in my body. Before I could start making myself crazy Sandra said, “Don’t be stupid, I am healing you and if you have bled all the blood out of your body then you would be dead.”Right! I forgot about that, soon the bleeding stopped, and the wound closed. There was still some pain though. “Thanks Sandra.” I got up and dusted myself.I went closer to the stream and washed the blood off my hands and leg. I was feeling hungry and did not know what I was going to eat.“Do you think there are fish in this stream?” I asked Sandra. “The big question is, do you know how to fish?” well, I have never done it before, but how hard can it be?I rolled up my pants and got into the stream looking for fish. But nothing. It
