Chapter 216: Bumping Into Gorgeous

EMILIA

I never thought I would get to see this... watching this unfold before my eyes. The burning of my dead kindred. My grip tightened on my arms. I kept folded against my chest and my mood foul. Watching the burning bodies from upstairs wasn’t exactly something I would call a nice view. I spotted my brother, he stood calm. Both my dad and I knew that was just a facade. Because a shiver ran through me... their blood lust made the air heavy and difficult to breathe.

"Are they really here?" I asked my mom beside me watching the same scene.

"Seems like it"

I faced her and I saw her stern eyes watching the scene. It was hard seeing my mom showing no emotion but now she did. This hit all of us hard to the point we were alert of the foes now here.

"The Venatores are in Juneau," she said and I moved my orbs back to the scene. I have only heard stories and considered them fairy tales but right now it’s actually unfolding before my eyes. Foes we never thought we had but yet did and they were capable of killing us... it only made it more shocking and a lot to take it.

I knew Dace would be charged with responsibilities, I knew what I had to do for his sake. Keep my eyes on his female so that he would at least focus because I knew Dace’s brain was in a split and this very situation will determine if he was capable of being the next Alpha. He’s capable alright... Dace was like a walking menace even though he doesn’t show it, wild and yet so unpredictable. He’s the loving brother I grew up with but if pushed to the edge it was like talking to a beast ready to bring the earth to its knees.

Even though he was yet to claim the title and get his complete power, Dace has always shown such formidable strength to the point he’s able to keep up with my dad. My mom knew it too we all did and I was glad he has found his Female, Emma might not know it but she plays a big role in his life when it comes to keeping him in check because I purely knew that day her clan leader came with that accusation he would have dropped dead that very minute because Dace would have had his head.

I briefly turned to Emma who had her thoughts to herself, it’s best if she doesn’t get to see that side of him. Emma’s fragile but she’s perfect for him, she’s his peace.

Emma’s been awfully quiet since I told her about what’s going on and she looked worried too, it was times like this I wish I could read her thoughts but no good, seems like she wanted to be left alone so... I let her, I may be pushy sometimes but I knew when to give space and beside...

I opened my locker and coughed briefly. Seriously dust already? I guess I haven’t been here for a while.

"Human school" I mumbled under my breath, I have to put up with this... I guess it was fun though. I shut the locker close, crossed my purse, and strolled along the halls, my eyes scanning everywhere. Much hasn’t changed to the same usual noisy hall with lockers jamming and don’t get me started with thoughts, many thoughts, if I didn’t have control over my powers I think I would have gotten my head exploded by now.

As Alpha children, Dace and I were born with our unique abilities, His gift of formidable scent and me reading thoughts stuff... same as our mindlink but more powerful. It was something that rarely happens, when were lions are given special gifts aside from what we already have, Dace and I are special, and I-

"Ow!" I rubbed my forehead, did I bump into a wall, I saw the shoes before me, I guess not, just a day in this school and someone was already pissing me off "Will you watch where you’re going?" I snapped as a growl leaked off me before I could control it. I just had to mentally tell my She-lion to chip it down!

I snapped my angry eyes at the offender and I stopped dead in my tracks. Oh, my bejesus who the fuck is this drop gorgeous guy? He is fucking tall! The same height as Dace and built too and the lean muscles in just the right places. Completely black attire who wears so much black? And don’t get me started on those gorgeous forest green eyes of his, they shone so wonderfully well that I would mistake him for a supernatural.

His feature was the definition of perfect and his brown hair like blonde begged me to touch, shoulder length I think because they were packed behold in a bun.

"Dear lord" I mouthed in awe.

He seemed startled at first, and I wondered why but then he raised an eyebrow and the realization struck me at just what I said.

"You should watch where you’re going!" I barked at him in anger and embarrassment. Okay, that was just a cover-up.

He looked offended now but he said nothing, nothing at all. It looked like the storm would explode but he remained silent or so I thought...

"You should watch where you walk"

Oh dear, I think my legs went weak when I heard his voice, horny too? Yes! His voice sounded like it echoed in my very ears and I wanted nothing more but to hear them again.

Rather he said nothing walking past me and I gulped just standing there like some lost puppy. That didn’t go so well.

A sharp exhale released from me as I continued my walk and tried to make sense of what I just encountered, my head spinning for some reason... maybe because I bumped into him? and then it hit me, struck me hard to the point I stopped.

Wait a minute... my eyes widened... I didn’t hear his thoughts!
