She hears screams all around her, she could smell the metallic scent of
blood thick in the air. Chills run up and down her whole body, she
tentatively takes a small step forward only to halt in her steps when her
feet unknowingly steps on a solid but firm thing. Is that..is that a hand?
She slowly crouches down and bring her trembling hands forward...only
to come in contact with a person's face, she screams as she realises that
it's a dead body.
She startles awake from her sleep, sitting upright on her bed, as she
takes deep breaths in, she could feel a thin layer of sweat on her
forehead and wetness present on the side of her eyes.
She realises that it was just a nightmare and that it was not real, but it
sure felt like it, she felt scared of what nightmare she would have again
if she slept so decides to walk around, it sounded stupid as it is the
middle of the night but at a time like this she would do anything to
forget about that day.
feeling her hands around the nightstand she tries to locate her water
bottle but she comes up empty, sighing in annoyance remembering
that she had forgot to take it with her after filling it up in the kitchen.
Standing up from her seated position, she decides to pick it up from
the kitchen since her throat felt like a sandpaper.
As she reaches the kitchen, she quickly locates her water bottle. Picking
it up almost immediately, she unscrew the cap and brings it up to her
lips. Since she was in a hurry to quench her thirst she failed to notice a
presence behind her until their front was completely pressed upto her
behind, making her completely aware of their presence.
Hands circle around her waist in a tighthold, but not enough to crush
her. She's immediately engulfed with the scent of vanilla and
immediately realise who it is. why does it has to be always him?.
Adryan couldn't sleep when all he could hear were was her fast heart
beats, he could hear her move around in her room. His curiosity rose
when he heard her leave her room. What was she going to do so late at
night?!
"You shouldn't be out here alone at night,
la mia gemma" his husky voice sounds near her ear, she could feel his
heavy breathing on the back of her neck which made goosebumps to
form on her body, standing straight with anticipation
"Why? It's not like a beast resides here" she couldn't resist asking him
the reason behind his words. what is going to happen if she comes
down at this time of the night? It's not like she was outside the pack
house or out in the wild or anything. (Translation: my gem)
Trailing a hand up her sides slowly making a shiver to run down her
spine, he moves the strands of hair away from her shoulder, she feels
the cold air hit the side of her bare neck. making her heartbeat rise in
anticipation and excitement.
She feels a soft feathery touch on her neck almost making her moan
outloud, he just kissed her on her most sensitive spot. The skin between
her neck and shoulder, where his mark should've been. His lips felt so
soft on her skin making her wish that she could feel them on her lips.
One of his hands trails down towards her bare thighs, she had decided
to wear a baggy t-shirt and cotton shorts on, which barely covered her
legs but the t-shirt did it's work.
Now though, she regretted not wearing a sweatpant. She could feel
herself getting excited, she has never felt something like this her whole
life. His hands slowly rub themselves softy on her skin, making her sigh
is pleasure and lean her head on his shoulder.
"Maybe the beast does reside inside, you never know" he whispers near
her ear, once again being successful in sending a shiver down her spine.
She spend most of the day holed up in her room, doing nothing. If she
wasn't doing anything then her mind would wander back to her
interaction with Adryan, which is something she didn't want if she
wanted her sanity to stay intact.
She was going out of her mind due to boredom. So she decided that
should help the omega's with preparing the lunch for the pack, since
she loved cooking and had already learned every nook and cranny of
the pack house with Violet's guidance ofcourse, she could easily
manuever her way through the kitchen.
She leaves her bedroom and takes cautious steps while moving down
the staircase, the last thing she wanted to do is break a leg or her spinal
cord.
She sighs in pleasure when she smelt the aroma of all the spices in the
air, and she knew that was in the right place, the pack kitchen. She
slowly moves towards the direction from where the aroma was coming,
she could feel a presence infront of her, she immediately switches her
eyes to that of her wolf's. Even herwolf's eyesight wasn't clear, it was
hazy. She could make out the outline of certain objects and the color of
it, which mostly appears blurred to her.
She never used her wolf's eyes much before, since she didn't want to
rely on her wolf all her life and she has been also told by her parents
that her eyes glowed green whenever she used her wolf's vision. She
could feel the power surging through her as she used her wolf's eye,
she finds a girl who seemed like she looked about the age of nineteen,
with brunette hair and blue eyes. She switches her vision back to
normal within a timespan of few seconds.
She slowly moves towards the brunette haired girl, hoping she would
assist her on what she could help them with.
"Umm...hi, my name is Jade. I was wondering if I could help you guys
with cooking the lunch for the pack members today?" She asks her
hesitantly waiting for the brunettes reply.
"Oh, hey there Jade! I'm Malia and you must be the ro-" Malia clears
her throat in between her words,"Alphaâs guest he talked about the
other day about that at the meeting. I really don't want to trouble you
with the work, and we're almost finished with the main course-" Malia
says.
"Perfect, then I can help you with the Dessert?â Jade instantly says
interrupting Malia's nervous rant with a hopeful tone of voice.
"I- but the Al, I- um.." Malia sounded like she was conflicted and Jade
almost lost hope, but she might have seen the crestfallen look on Jade's
face causing her to immediately switches her answer.
"SURE" She chokes out and Jadr instanlty hugs her in happiness.
"Thankyou so much Malia" Jade smiles at her.
"Geez, don't ever show me that face again. I felt like I kicked a cute little
puppy which sounds like it would hurt me more than the puppy itself."
She says which causes Jade to laugh at her choice of words.
Jade takes a few step towards the side only to collide with another
body, a familiar flowery scent invades her nostrils.
She need to stop walking into others literally, she think to myself.
"Watch where you're going you blind bitchâ
A voice snaps at Jade.
