Awaken The Wolf
Book 2 teaser

Ayla’s POV

Two weeks had passed since the Sun Valley pack tried to attack us; emphasis on the tried there! Of course, they had no idea what they were walking into; honestly, I think they thought I would be some helpless little girl, one that they could stroll in and wipe out without too much trouble; oh, how wrong they were.

Lives were lost that day that hadn’t needed to be. All out of fear of something they did not understand, a better way to put it would be that they didn’t want to understand. All the representatives from the other packs are still here. They all witnessed what the Sun Valley Wolfs tried to do and failed.

Life has become a mixture of nervous anticipation, anger and a whole lot of confusion. Everyone keeps staring at me like I’m going to explode at any minute like I’m something new, different.

“I’m still me, for fuck sake; no one cared before, so why should that change now” I mutter, getting annoyed at the millionth person gawking at me already this morning. Or maybe it was at the fact I had stupidly sexy guys walking beside me?

“We can hear your thoughts remember, Ayla” Aiden almost choked on his laughter; it serves if right for eavesdropping!

“How can it be eavesdropping when it’s practically shouted inside my head?” he laughed at me again.

“Axel didn’t point it out, so it’s just you, Mr nosy!” I tell him, knowing he’s right, but there is no way I will admit that.

“Someone seems to be a bit of a grouchy pants today”, Aiden continued to tease; he knew he was pushing it, but he didn’t care; he knew he could make it up to me easily enough.

“You’re lucky I like you,” I tell him with a pout.

“Aww, only like!” he moaned as he slipped his arm around her waist and kissed her neck—one of his favourite spots that always drew his attention.

“Move aside, brother; this is a job for me!” Axel piped up, and Ayla offered a small smile, whereas Aiden did not.

Since merging with Alune and gaining my wolf Bria, my emotions had been all over the shop; sometimes, they proved hard to control. Today was one of those days. It felt amazing in Aiden’s arms, but Axel was right; it was him that I needed to make me feel better! Never had I ever felt like that, I love all three of my mates exactly the same, and either one could fix my problems. There wasn’t one that was better than the other, yet today I needed him!

“You know what, I really could do with a hug with Axel,” I said as I turned to kiss Aiden, fully aware this would hurt him and trying my utmost to make it so he didn’t feel pushed away. Sadness flashed across his eyes for a second, but he hid it quickly.

I don’t know; I just felt on edge all the time. Flashes from the fight kept hitting me hard, plus there was the matter of my new parents – it was easier to think of them as new rather than biological – to get my head around it.

Every time I closed my eyes, I could see myself standing there waiting for them to come into view, standing on the western road alone, insisting I could face them and so one gets hurt. I knew I could have done it too if only my father had let me; well, I guess he’s not my father anymore, is he? I hated that the most!

“Why had he rushed in? I had told him I could do this, that I was the only one who could, but once again, I was seen as a child, like a girl that couldn’t look after herself or the ones I cared about.

Watching the members of the Sun Valley pack appear in front of me, at least thirty or more, all believing I was a joke, yet all I felt was fear for the three men behind me. I couldn’t let them get hurt; I wouldn’t be able to live if anything happened to them. I could feel Alune stirring inside me, hear her whispers and how she knew what to do; it was kind of having a second wolf inside me. To begin with, we were just merged as one entity; I was her and me at the same time; I knew things I didn’t before but had no idea where it all came from; now she was becoming her own entity, and I could hear her, and she could guide me. It was totally surreal.

“Ayla, you are now capable of so much more than you ever were before. With you and me merged as one. We are virtually unstoppable. Focus on the fight ahead, do not worry about our mates; they are more than capable of looking after their self’s” Alune spoke clearly within my mind; I remember it as if it was yesterday. Hearing her voice for the first time was mesmerizing. My mind was all over the place today; I just kept replaying the fight over and over again.
