This was the first time she was addressing him by his name and the way his name rolled off her lips had him going crazy. Blade was like a restless caged beast inside him. Ready to let out. "Say it again." He rasped as his hold on her waist became stronger. Sparks were driving them insane. "X-Xander..." She said again in that soft sweet voice of hers. Her gesture was so meek, and the blush on her face so deadly gorgeous. "You will kill me, woman." He rasped out making her peek at him through her lashes. "I can't. That'll kill me too." She breathed in a soft voice under her breath and if he wouldn't be close he could've never heard it and bloody hell. Her words swayed his heart in a hum of ecstasy. A delicate smile adorned his lips and Emma barely stifled her gasp while looking at the emotion in his eyes which was far different from need and hunger. He was gazing at her with love and not to mention that, to die for a smile which she was witnessing for the very first time from this
Emma was all cheery and happy for the last two days. That date was the first and the best date of her life. Emma was on cloud nine. Her happiness knew no bounds but at the same time, she was so very afraid of life. Life always took away the best things from her and no way did she want to lose this man who has become the most important part of her life. Not being able to sleep she decided to roam in the backyard as it was good rainy weather outside. Xander was probably dead asleep by now. Emma left and it was so amazing in the garden at this time. After casually strolling there for an hour or two she came back inside. She was closing the main door when she saw a silhouette of a guy near the trees in front. She would've taken it casually but her heart jolted in her ribcage when she witnessed a red eye shining from afar and gazing directly at her. It was as if the floor beneath her feet was snatched away, leaving her falling into the demise of her traumatic past. From the bottom of
Emma was wide awake the whole night. Sleep didn't come to her at all. She kept on looking towards the curtained window and door now and then. Utterly afraid, that man would barge in and do what he hasn't done all those years back. Xander came inside his room only to find her wide awake sitting on the bed with her back resting on the headboard and eyes looking tired with dark circles underneath. She looked so damn pale. "You didn't sleep?" He asked her calmly to which she just blinked but then nodded her head softly. Getting up from the bed she walked out of his room and Xander didn't stop her. It was fucking bothering him what scared her this much? If they saw her at his home then they fucking knew who she was. And now her life was in danger. Calming his nerves down he started packing his stuff. Emma took a long relaxing shower. Which was much needed after last night's incident. The shower was necessary to wash away her memories. She took longer in there, trying to coax herself
Their car was going down the hill in the dark forest. She was closing her eyes so tightly as if that would teleport her away from this nightmare. The car crashed into a large tree with a loud crash. Their bodies jerked forward as the windscreen shattered into tiny little pieces. If not for the seatbelts they would've fallen out of the car from the front. "Hey? Belle?" She groaned in pain hearing his faint voice. Her ears were ringing and the numbness slowly faded away as she opened her eyes with rapid blinking to adjust her sight. She could feel a large arm on her chest that was keeping her plastered to the seat. "Belle? You okay?'' His voice was clear and stressed. She felt his large hand cupping the side of her face. She winced when his thumb touched her eyebrow line. She might've got a cut there. Her eyes slowly set on him only to gasp out in horror. There was a long gash on his forehead as blood was pouring out of it covering the side of his face and neck. "You're hurt." She
Rain poured down at him washing away his blood which she could witness through the crackling of thunder light but what stopped her heart was there were no wounds on his chest or his forehead. Xander was like him! No! This can't be! She was hallucinating! She was already feeling hot, maybe her body was playing games with her mind. She tried to come up with gazillions of excuses to deny what she was seeing wasn't true but how long could she deny the reality that she was witnessing through her own eyes? He racked his fingers through his hair combing them back as his naked back flexed. He turned to look back and she immediately moved to the side, hiding behind the wooden wall. She was breathing heavily looking at nothing in the darkness. Her heart was beating so fast and her breathing was getting dense. ‘You are overthinking.’ She tried to coax her mind but who was she fooling? She had seen him kill that huge bear right in front of her eyes just in one go with his bare hands that
"NO!" Emma screamed as she wildly wriggled in his hold to get free but who was she kidding? This man was not even human. How in the world would she save herself from him? His shoulder dug painfully in her stomach as he took big long steps towards Lord knows where. The fact that she was in his hold was terrific enough. Rain poured harshly as the leaves rustled wildly. Twigs broke under his boots. She was punching at his back with her tiny fists but to no avail and in the end, she got her hands hurting only. She was crying as her tears mixed with the pouring rain. Dizziness was consuming her slowly due to all the blood rushing to her brain. His arms around her thighs tightened when she again tried to wriggle. Her eyes widened when she saw the stone pathway that leads to the cottage. Her hands became icy in fear as her struggles intensified. "No! Let me go!" She bellowed and started to claw at his back like a vicious tigress ready to claw him to death. He let out a low thunderous
Dim sunlight invaded the insides of the dark room through a long slit on the velvet curtains. It was as if a heavy weight was placed on her eyelids that didn't let her open her eyes. Her body felt drained, tired, and crushed into tiny little pieces. The heaviness of her body was too much that it was difficult for her to breathe and then a soundless gasp escaped her lips when she felt sparks all over and at the same time, a tingling sensation erupts at a specific place on her neck. Her hand shot up as she traced the swollen painful area on her neck and just like that all the memories of last night came back. Her eyes shot open wide only to be met with the unfamiliar ceiling. She abruptly tried to sit but then a horrific realization dawned on her. A large heavy body was sprawled on her, pushing her body into the mattress. It took her a millisecond to recognize that familiar scent. Her heart sped up not in giddiness or excitement but complete dread. Her first instinct was to run. Emm
Xander walked to his study, Ethan along with his beta Blake was already there. Blake was the one who came forward and hugged Xander tightly. "It's so good to have you back, Xander," Blake said gratefully, making the Alpha of a man hug him back and pat his shoulder. Xander walked to his head chair and sat on it. "Updates." He said curtly making both Ethan and Blake start to explain all the things to him. "You've captured one of them?" He asked calmly as Ethan nodded his head. "He hasn't opened his mouth yet," Blake informed curtly Xander's most trusted men were Ethan and Blake. They grew up together. "That's going to change soon," Xander spoke evilly; a smirk appeared on Blake's face as Xander went to the dungeons in the basement. A badly beaten man was tied to the chair with silver chains which had burnt his skin badly. The scraping sound of the chair on the floor was heard as Xander sat in front of this man. His demeanor was deadly and calm, and the trembling of that man gave a
