Avenging her, hima [e ink epub reader TXT] 📗

Shadow crouched on the top most branch staring straight at the road. At last the day has come and he is going to avenge the murder of his mate.

He took out the long necklace with heart shaped pendant on it. He opened the heart locket and inside it a smiling face of a girl in seventeen peered at him.

He closed his eyes remembering her, her long copper colored hair, her tiny and fragile body, her vanilla scent and the never fading smile adding extra credit to her pretty features. It's as if she is still with him.

A car horn sounded far brought him back to present.

His face is replaced with a malicious grin now. He waited until the car is right where he wanted, He could see the red swift racing at top speed towards his target area.

He dropped right on the bonnet, the tires squealed under his weight and the car skidded to a sudden halt. Shadow brought his fangs out smiling to himself.

"It's payback time." He screeched.

He pulled out the door of the car pulling out the girl who lay unconscious on the wheel. The girl fell on his chest helplessly. The scent of vanilla flared his nostrils increasing his rage. He slapped the fragile thing in his hands and threw her over the rocks.

He reached her as if to torture her to eternity is his main wish. She lay on the floor, blood gushing out. He grabbed her neck to rip it apart, seeing her for the first time.

He stood motionless his hands on her neck. He dropped her as a limp doll and ran into the forest never glancing back.


Summer stood on the balcony gazing at the thick forest sipping hot chocolate milk. She adjusted her weight on the other leg so that it wouldn't inflict pain on her injured legs. It's been almost a week since she is found on the road by some travelers almost half battered to death. The travelers admitted her in the hospital.

When the police asked for her statement about what happened back there. She couldn't tell them anything that they wish to hear from her, she just said she was blacked out all the time which is very true. They just stared at her dubiously. After a week of rigorous investigation they decided it is an animal attack.

She sighed thinking about it. She turned to leave but she felt like someone watching her, she stared into the forest and saw a quick rustle of leaves. She nodded her head in disbelief.

Shadow stood watching the familiar figure on the balcony; she regarded the resemblance of her with her mate. When she left the balcony part of him felt like going after her and part of him wanted to kill no matter who she resembles.

"It's going to be hard than I thought." He told himself.

"Summer, it's too cold outside, come in." dad shouted.

"Yeah! coming."

She shifted her weight uncomfortable on to the other leg. She staggered into the corridor.

Summer's father Daniel is waving at her a letter, all grinning. She frowned but it hurt her so much just to do that.

"Your admission letter."

"Thanks, dad." she said taking the letter into her limp hands.

She sighed when she flipped through contents of the letter.

Summer stood watching the entire ocean of new faces, she can see them staring at her back. She sighed knowing that it takes more time to get used to this place, let alone befriend one.

"Hi," someone waved at her.

"I'm luke, you must be the new girl summer."

She smiled at him. Her beautiful blue eyes looked at him, smile spreading over the gentle lips. She tossed her golden hair thinking of what to say next. It's not easy for a boy to ignore her beauty. He smiled at her making his best effort to appeal her.

"Yes, I am. I am heading towards my English class." she said stepping lightly away from him.

He moved towards her not wanting to let her go.

"I'll show you the way." he said.
She smiled at him and followed him through the corridors.

"I'm summer." she said introducing to the blond next to her.

"Ashley."

She introduced Summer to the other one sitting right behind her, tony. Tony is good looking but her manners are quite different, she seems more like a tom boy.

"See you at the cafeteria." Tony shouted while we headed to the next class.


<Summer's POV>

Classes passed soon enough, it is boring to listen to the same classes again. Our previous college schedule was way ahead of this one's.

We gathered our plates and sat at the middle table. Tony joined us and soon enough our table filled with many strangers.

"She is the new girl, Summer." Tony introduced me.

I smiled at them. Dark haired guy is Mark. Tall and blond one is Dan and Luke. We spoke on simultaneous topics. I felt like I’m already in the group.

"Summer, we are having a basket ball match today. Would you like to join us?" Tony asked.

Without even waiting for my answer she decided I would come. I called Dad and said I would be late. He is happy that I made friends the very first day of my college.

Dan played very well; he seems to be the hottie of this college. It's weird but he seemed to stare at me all the time if not for the match I'm sure he would sit right in front of me staring.

"I think Dan has a thing for you." Ash nudged me looking at him.

I shrugged my shoulders.

I left in the middle of match remembering that I have to do dishes and cook for dad.

I turned on the t.v after getting everything done. I must have dozed off sometime in the middle. I woke up in sofa, a blanket covered on me. It must be Dad.

"Good morning, dad." I called out when I smelled the coffee.

I hurried to college since I woke up late. They won yesterday's match so everyone in the college were in cheerful mood.

I saw Dan coming towards me.

"Party at my place today, you should be there." he said smiling.

I nodded though I doubt I would go. I kind of hate late night parties.

The day rolled of soon enough. It's like the whole
college is invited for the party. All the day people are talking about when to go? what dress to wear and so many things like.

While I am leaving Luke's car stopped right behind me.

"We'll pick you up at 7." Ash said winding the window down.

I tried to protest but I heard Tony shouting from inside.

"You are coming."

I talked to Dad he has no problem with that as long as I'll be out of mischief which I always do. I'm good kid, you know.

"You look stunning." Dan said receiving me at his front door.

"Thank you." I said blushing.

Dan is really cute and he looks so familiar to me. I wondered how I knew him before.

Dan brought me drink while I stood in his Porsche away from the party area.

"Don't you like parties?" he asked.

"I have something to show." he said and took me into a room.

He rummaged his shelf and brought out a picture frame.Closing my eyes, he put the frame in my hands.

I am shocked to see child version of me smiling at me in the picture and a boy with a dog right beside me.

Danny pointed at the little girl and then to me. He pointed at the boy and then to him. Everything got into place; why he looked so familiar.

"Danny the dog." I shrieked with joy and embraced him.

When Dad and I lived here, Danny was my best friend in those days. Because of his dog I gave him that weird name Danny the dog.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" I asked.

"I thought you would recognize." he said smiling.

We spoke nearly for hours about our childhood days when Tony interrupted us.

Soon the guests left us.Danny said he would drop me home so I waited for him while he went to retrieve his car from the garage.

It's really chilly outside, I have known this place for many years but I'll never get used to the cold here.

I Heard someone's honk. I tried to see which way they are moving but the fog made it difficult to see. I could hear the honk very near but I couldn't make out which way to move.

I froze right on the road when I saw the car inches away from me. I closed my eyes in fear that the car would run over me. Someone pushed me away, I still closed my eyes and panicked when two strong hands around me assured that I was safe. I peered slightly at my rescuer. I couldn't see much of his face except for his dark black eyes that are so dark as night.

When he saw me staring at him, he released me and ran into the fog, disappearing from my view. I was sorry that I couldn't even thank him.

Dan came running towards me.

"Is everything okay? I heard you screaming." He said.

"I'm good." I said and told him what happened now.

"Must be one of our college friends, we'll search for him tomorrow." he said when I said about the person.


<Shadow's POV>

It's really tough watching her so close to me. Sometimes I felt like wringing her neck and sometimes I felt like kissing her. It was a battle of two feelings in my heart and I don't know which would win at last.

I watched people worshiping her beauty and I felt like rolling them in the mud for even laying an eye on her. Cathy said that I was in love with her. No, I'm not. I have to avenge my mate and that I would do only by killing her, I thought.

When she stepped out of the car, I was really shocked to see her. She was so much like her in that dress, I stared at her all the time from the top most branches.

When the other kid took her into
