Julian POV
Mating Roxy was the happiest three days I’ve ever had, I could finally feel what it feels like to be with your mate and make love until the sun comes up and sets again. I felt what it feels like to have your mate next to you when you wake up knowing she will be there when you go back to sleep. I was never one for love stories, but I am beginning to like the one I’m living.
All this is still so new to me that I’m not sure what to expect as the days go by but one thing is for sure, I Julian Carmelo is falling for Chrystal Stone heart first.
When she woke up I could feel everything she was feeling and I very much wanted to comfort her, now I know why wolves sleep for at least two days after their mate’s heat is over. The way she kept us up burned all my energy and I made the mistake of trying to leave once for feeding and I will never do it again. Zanian is a wolf and wolves are very close to dogs so they don’t eat when their mate goes into heat and the males doesn’t leave the females side either.
After Zanian and I was so rudely woken up and forced to have a shower I felt better, still hungry but better. I feel fresh and clean and today is a new day and now the world will know I am mated. I didn’t want to mark Chrystal while she was in heat because I wanted her to give consent but when Roxy rook over and begged me I tried holding back because I have been feeding from her seeing as I wasn’t allowed to leave and that too with difficulty, but when she blackmailed me into marking her I couldn’t hold back anymore I marked her on her hip because I knew then she can’t mark me. I want Chrystal to mark me not Roxy because then I know that Chrystal accepts me too.
When I saw her eating in the kitchen I just couldn’t stop myself I had to kiss her. I know Zane was standing there and I know everyone will find out sooner or later and thanks to my super hearing I heard that he wanted confirmation, so I gave it to him.
I had to stop myself from laughing at Chrystal’s expression she looks so cute when she is left shocked and speechless.
We fooled around for a bit until Deliah came in and made the conversation turn serious. I wanted nothing more than to put tape on her mouth and put her in the closet for ruining a good moment.Please visit J o b n I b . c o m and search the book title to read the entire book for free. I lead Chrystal upstairs and showed her my mark. I didn’t want to tell her in the kitchen because she would rip her shirt up and show everyone, I wanted to tell her my story first before she show anyone.
When I were finished telling her my story I could see her eyes have moisture in them but I didn’t say anything. She walked over to me and hugged me out of the blue. I thought she would be mad about me marking her that I actually prepared myself mentally for her outbreak.
“I had no idea.” She said and looked up at me.
“no one knows not even Tracy. You would be the first one I tell.” I said and kissed the top of her head.
“why did I not feel your mark?” she asked honestly confused.
I looked at her and smiled at her expression and then said, “have you spoken to Roxy?” I asked her with a raised brow. It took her about a minute to realize what I’m saying and then she just said, “she haven’t spoken to me at all yet.” Chrystal said and looked at me.
“I’m sure she is just getting some rest and will unblock you soon.” I said
Chrystal shrugged her shoulders and just stared at me.
“what do you want to do now?” I asked her.
He looked down and then her head snapped up as if she just remembered something.
I was still waiting for Chrystal’s reply when Zanian came running into the room, “we have a problem.” Was all he said and left.
Third Person POV
Julian and Chrystal looked at each other and then followed behind Zanian running out of the room. When they came to the stairs it was chaos everyone was packed inside looking out of the windows trying to see what is happening outside.
“Julian I don’t think you should go out.” Tracy said as they made their way to the door. Julian stopped and looked at Tracy with a raised brow, “and why not?” he asked
“I’m going out.” Chrystal said and pushed past everyone. Julian left his conversation with Tracy and followed Chrystal out.
When they got outside it was even more chaos, wolves were fighting everywhere teeth snapping, and the ripping of flesh could be heard.
Chrystal scanned the crowed for Zanian and finally found him fighting against a dark brown wolf. Julian came up beside her and said, “I will take left you take right.” and smirked.
Crystal ran onto the field and shifted into Raven. As she ran she captured a few wolves attention and now they were concentrating on her. as she ran Zanian watched her and the wolves getting ready to chase her.
He took a step back and growled so hard that the ground shook beneath everyone’s feet most wolves bowed down and then you get the stubborn ones who fought against the authority Zanian clearly possessed.
Even Chrystal felt like bowing, but she didn’t because she is his mate and they are equals.
When Zanian looked up he looked at the wolf he was fighting and shifted into his human form he looked at the wolf and said, “shift now.” Using his Alpha voice which everyone knows cannot be ignored.
When the wolf shifted a man stood up and glared at Zanian with so much hate.
“who are you?” Zanian asked
“the guy who will bring your head to the Queen.” The guy said looking at Zanian.
Julian walked up to stand beside Zanian. The wolf took a look and snarled at Julian baring his canines. “a vampire on wolf territory.” The wolf said and took a step back.
“I will ask again who are you?” Zanian said sounding impatient.
The wolf spat on the ground in front of Zanian and he lost control moving with wolf speed snapping the wolf’s neck before he could even raise a hand.
The wolf’s lifeless body fell to the ground and the others started retreating running back into the woods.
“Follow them and make sure they don’t get far.” Zanian said and many wolves took off behind them including Julian and Chrystal.
Zanian took a look around and saw that no one of his pack was hurt or dead, meaning the training is paying off.
Zanian POV
I watched as Julian and Chrystal left the kitchen walking towards the stairs. Deliah was still standing there staring at me, “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you.” I said and she just nodded her head and then she left leaving me standing there.
I looked at the bowl I stole from Chrystal and put it down on the counter.
I already saw Chrystal’s mark, but I don’t know the story behind the mark and I didn’t ask either.
I was just standing there looking out of the kitchen window when Zanian came running in saying, “we have trouble. Wolves are coming, most of them are rogues.” He said leaving and I followed behind him. I saw that Deliah and Tracy are already chasing the wolves into the house leaving just the warriors. I stepped out and saw the wolves coming out from between the trees. There is about twenty of them, which is not much if they are planning an attack. I ran back inside using my wolf speed to go and call Chrystal and Julian and went back out.
When I got outside the fight already started. I shifted into Blaze and was caught off guard when a wolf ran into me sending me crashing to the ground. I got up and shook my fur out looking in front of me at the wolf who dares to take me on. When I saw the dark brown wolf I could feel power rolling off him, but it’s nowhere near as strong as mine. The fight started and he was too predictable, I matched his every move with one of my own.
I grew tired of this wolf and took a step back. I roared letting my power seep through my voice making my pack whimper and bow, as for the other wolves some of the lowered their heads and some were challenging me by fighting my call.
The audacity of this brown wolf is just beyond me. he comes into my home and spites on my ground. He wouldn’t tell me who he is so I figured he isn’t that important before he could make a move or block me I snapped his neck and watched his lifeless body fall to the ground.
I looked up and saw the rest retreating, running back into the woods.
“Follow them and make sure they don’t get far.” I said and watched as everyone took off including Chrystal and Julian.
I looked around the field and saw that none of my pack was injured instead there were a few lifeless body’s lying around. I started dragging them and putting them on one spot.
What that man said keep repeating in my head, “the guy who will bring your head to the queen.” This can only mean one thing, Eliza made the first move. If it’s a fight they want it’s a fight they will get.
Chrystal POV
Chasing wolves wasn’t my plan for the day, but you can never really have your day 100% planned out can you? I am currently chasing a light brown wolf and I must say this wolf is fast. Just when I think I have it, it speeds up. I was starting to lose patience very fast. I can use Roxy’s gifts but not as good as she can so I just concentrated and teleported myself in front of the running wolf catching it off guard making it stumble to the ground.
When the wolf finally stopped rolling I pounced on it and sunk my teeth into its neck.
When I was sure the wolf is dead I shifted into my human form hiding the body under branches and leaves and put a mark.
Zane and a few other wolves would come and burn the bodies.
I made my way back to the pack house and saw I was the last one to come back.
I looked around and saw Julian speaking with Zanian and it looked intense so I made my way over to them.
“what is going on?” I asked.
“Eliza and Mario just declared war.” Zanian said lifting the shirt of a dead wolf showing us the royal mark.
“I’m sure they already know where we are.” Julian said looking worried.
“Julian what is going on?” I asked him.
“the wolf I was chasing was just a boy and he didn’t know anything except what he was told.” Julian said and looked down.
“you didn’t kill him did you?” I asked glaring at him.
“no I didn’t, but I did wipe his memory as far back as I could. So he will have a bit of amnesia and blank spots.” Julian said in defence and I just looked at him.
“where is he now?” Zanian asked.
“he went back to his pack.” Julian said and shrugged his shoulders.
“what are we ganna do about this?” I asked and waved my hands around.
“we will get ready and take the fight to them before they come here.” Zanian said and walked off.
