ログインIris Jones thought her life was perfect, blessed with everything she could ever ask for, and with a perfect mate who loved and adored her or so, she thought. Her world came crumbling down when she was killed by the two people she trusted most in her life. Dying in a pool of her blood, she was told she was just a tool used to enrich his pack and that she meant nothing to him. Iris had thought she was going to die but the Moon Goddess had other plans for her, taking her back in time a year before she introduced Theodore, the one she wishes to spend the rest of her life with to her parents. Given a second chance to undo what had happened to her, Iris wasn't going to let the chance go to waste as she strived to make them pay. Everything was going so perfectly well, but little did Iris know that the changes she was making would draw her to meet her true maye Tristan the beta of her pack. Would she succeed in carrying out her revenge plan, or would she fail and end up with the same fate as her future self?

"Milana, wala pa din ba si Sir Magnus? " "Mil, may kailang akong papirmahan kay Sir. " " Ms. Carreon, bakit ilang araw ng wala si Sir? " Damn it! Kakarating ko lang at puro tanong na nila ang bumungad sa akin. Tsk, humanda talaga sa akin ang lalaking iyon pagkabalik niya. Ilang araw na akong inaalila ng mga head ng departments! Sayang ang bago kong nails at hair color! Damn it, hindi ko mairampa dahil sa pag-absent niya. Sayang rin ang nagastos ko dahil sa pagiging haggard ko dito sa opisina niya. "Good morning din sa inyo! Hindi ko alam kung kailan makakapasok si Sir. As you can see, may inaasikaso siya. Tatawagan ko kayo agad kapag pumasok na siya, okay? Yung ibang may dala ng kailangang papirmahan kay Sir ay iwan niyo na lang dito, ipapasok ko na lang sa opisina niya mamaya." Pigil na inis na sabi ko sa kanila. Isa isa naman nilang iniabot ang mga dala nilang papeles at saka sila nagsialisan. Napabuntong hininga na lamang ako. Sinubukan ko ring tawagan si Sir Magnus ngunit cannot be reached ba rin siya. Ang lalaking iyon talaga! Basta basta na lang hindi napasok. Naiiwan tuloy halos lahat sa akin ng mga gawain niya. Pasalamat siya at maganda ang pasahod niya. Meron din siyang pa-service at pabahay! Magtiyaga na lang ako dito kesa humanap ng ibang trabaho. "Tsk." Ibinaba ko ang aking bagong biniling bag sa aking table at saka nagsimulang magtrabaho. "Morning, Milana. Mukhang bad mood ka na naman ata." Palihim na lamang akong napairap dahil sa biglang pagdating ni James. "Wala pa rin si Sir, kung siya ang kailangan mo." Hindi ko naman siya tinapunan ng tingin, ipinagpatuloy ko na lamang ang ginagawa ko. "Ikaw talaga ang sadya ko, Milana. Tara muna mag-snacks, alas nuebe na rin naman." Napabuntong hininga na lamang ako at saka bored na tumingin sa kanya. Kung makapag-aya ang lalaking ito! Akala ba niya ay makakalimutan ko ang pagkahuli ko sa kanya at sa isang intern na naghahalikan sa CR?! Kapal, ha? Well, wala naman akong pakielam doon. But, he's so manyak! Isang beses ko na rin siyang nahuli na namalo ng puwitan ng isang bagong employee. Ewan ko ba sa trip niya ngayon at ako ang inaabala niya, pansin ko na sa kanya na palaging bagong employee o kaya mga intern ang pinagdidiskitahan niya. "I'm busy. " Maikling sabi ko sa kanya. "C'mon, Mil. Hindi ka naman papatayuan ng rebulto kung magsisipag sipagan ka diyan. " Pagak naman akong natawa dahil sa sinabi niya. " Can't you read between the lines? I don't want to be with you, James. So, stop this bullshit and go." Matiim akong tumitig sa kanya. Kita ko naman ang pagdaan ng inis sa mukha niya. Tama iyan, mainis ka lang na gunggong ka. "Ang ilap mo naman Ms. Carreon. Inaaya ka lang mag-snacks. Libre ko naman." Napakamot sa ulong sabi niya. Still trying, huh? "I can buy it for myself, Mr. Jimenez. Kung wala ka ng ibang kailangan ay pwede bang iwan mo na ako rito? Busy kasi ako sa trabaho." I smiled coldly. "Tsk. Ang yabang mo naman, Milana. Akala mo ba ay hindi ko napapansin ang pagiging malapit mo kay Sir? Iyon ba ang dahilan mo kaya ganyan ka? " He smirked at me. Ngunit, imbis na mainis ay malakas na lamang akong napatawa dahil sa sinabi niya. "Damn! Oh, fuck! Ang sakit na nga tiyan ko." Tawa pa rin ako ng tawa habang hinihimas ko ang tiyan ko. Siya naman ay mukhang mas lalong nainis dahil sa pagtawa ko. " Alam mo, James? Tingnan mo ang sarili mo sa salamin. Inis ka ba kasi hindi ka favorite ni Sir? " Nang aasar na sabi ko pa sa kanya. "Akala mo ba hindi kita papatulan na babae ka? " Itinaas niya ang kamay niya at akmang sasampalin ako ng biglang may malaking kamay na pumigil sa kanya. Pinag-krus ko na lamang ang braso ko habang bored na tumitingin kay James at sa lalaking pumigil dito. "Huwag ka nga..." Natigilan naman si James, nawalan ng kulay ang mukha niya ng makilala kung sino ang pumigil sa kanya. "Si... Sir Magnus! " Pabalya naman siyang binitiwan ni Sir. "You're fired. Ms. Carreon, come to my office." Malamig na sabi ng suplado kong boss saka pumasok sa opisina niya. "Si... Sir! Huwag naman po, may asawa at anak po ako." Kabadong kabado na sabi ni James nang habulin niya si Sir Magnus papasok sa opisina niya. Napatawa na lang ako sa isip ko dahil sa sinabi niyang iyon. Kinuha ko ang mga papeles sa table ko at sumunod sa kanilang dalawa. "Sana naisip mo iyan Mr. Jimenez bago ka gumawa ng kalokohan sa loob ng opisina ko. " Seryosong sabi ni Sir Magnus, hinubad nito ang coat na suot niya na agad ko namang kinuha para isabit sa may gilid ng table niya. "Sir..." "No need to explain. Nakita ko rin ang nangyari kanina, I don't need an employee like you. You may go, marami pa akong gagawin. " Matigas na sabi ni Sir Magnus. Masama namang napatingin sa akin si James ngunit nagkibit balikat na lamang sa kanya. "Are you okay? " Diretsang tanong sa akin ni Sir Magnus ng makaalis si James. "Yes, Sir. Lalo na ngayong pumasok ka na ulit." I smiled widely at him. Humanda kang lalaki ka. "Hm. Sounds like a threat to me, Vicenthia." He smirked. "I told you to stop calling me that. Tsk, here. Kailangan ng mga iyan ng pirma mo. " Marahan kong inilapag ang mga hawak kong folders sa desk ni Sir Magnus. "Fuck. Napakarami naman niyan. Kakapasok ko lang, Ms. Carreon." Biglang nagsalubong ang kilay niya dahil doon. "Ako na lang pipirma, Sir? Tutal, ako naman ang nagawa ng trabaho mo." Sarkastikong sabi ko na ikinataas ng kilay niya. Napailing na lamang siya sa akin. "So feisty. Tsk, give me that. Kung wala ng iba ay pwede ka ng lumabas." He rolled his eyes on me. "Well, Mr. Salvatori... Look at my nails and my hair. Wala ka bang napapansin? " Iniharap ko pa sa kanya ang kuko ko at ang mahaba kong buhok. "Oh? Sabihin ko ba dapat maganda? " Supladong sabi niya sa akin. "It is supposed to be beautiful and fresh! Pero dahil hindi ka pumasok ng ilang araw ay na-haggard na." Mataray na sabi ko sa kanya. Napabuntong hininga na lamang siya at saka kinuha ang wallet niya sa bulsa niya. "Here, use this card. Also, buy yourself a new pair of heels. Mukhang malapit ng masira iyang suot mo. Maghalf day ka na today para makapag-pamper ka. Nakakahiya naman kasi masyado kitang naabala." Napatingin din ako sa suot ko sa aking paa. Well, medyo may kalumaan na nga ito. Napangiti na lamang ako kay Sir Magnus. "Nice! Thanks, Sir! Deserve ko naman ito dahil nag-act like a CEO ako noong absent ka. " Ngisi ko sa kanya at saka mabilis na lumabas ng opisina niya.I placed my cutlery down on my empty plate and reached for the glass of wine that sat beside it. My eyes were on Theodore as I brought the cup to my lips and took a sip.He sat there watching me ever since he finished his dinner, a bright unwavering smile on his face as he intertwined his fingers and used them as a resting place for his chin.“Why do you keep looking at me like that?” I chuckled as I wiped my mouth with a tablecloth.“You’re just so beautiful, I wonder how I became the luckiest man in the world by just deciding to give you a ride that day.”I gave him a teasing smile as I leaned in closer to the table. “So, you mean you didn’t have any intention of asking me out when you picked me up?”He chuckled loudly. “Please, I mean yes. That was the reason I asked if you wanted a ride, but the minute you stepped into my car I already knew I had no shot.”“Well, that didn’t stop you, if I remember clearly, you were all sweet and shooting shots when we stopped by that restaurant.”
I sat in the back of my black Mercedes, my head laid back on the headrest we drove through the cool evening, and I watched bright city lights of diverse colors cast beautiful blurs on my window.Blackwater pack never slept, in fact, nighttime was when we were more active, enjoying parties, street food or like myself romantic dinners.I watched as a bunch of pups giggled as they raced past the street on their scooters, bumping into some passers-by and screaming their apologies through the exhilaration of their glee.I rolled down my window and let out a soft breath as the cool breeze wafted against the side of my face, the smell of fried meat and pastries dancing in the breeze, I inhaled deeply, wanting to capture the moment in my memory forever.The car made an easy turn, and we rode down an eerie, dark slope surrounded by bushes. I sat back in my car and peered ahead to where a gate sat with bright golden lights beaming from a distance.We reached the gate and the car slowed to a halt
It was time for me to sit up. As the heir to the Blackwater pack and soon-to-be Luna of the Dark Moon pack, I could no longer afford to be nonchalant in my duties to both packs.Getting my father to help the dark moon pack against the rising threat of wolf hunters was only the beginning.I sat in front of my desk, my eyes scanning through the files on my desk, I had decided to do a little bit of research on the hunters.They had been around for as long as time itself, but after an ancient war between humans and werewolves, the hunters were presumed to have gone extinct.But it turns out they were only in hiding, regrouping, and waiting for the perfect time to strike.But what I could not understand was why they had decided to strike now. For over two decades, the different werewolf clans had grown smarter and more civil.We dropped all our internal hatred for each other and have since begun to live in harmony with each other, avoiding human casualties and staying in separate packs acro
I tossed from side to side on my bed. I pulled the blankets over my head in a bid to cover my ears from the irritating noise. I could still hear it faintly. My eyelids fluttered open, and my hands reached around until I turned on the bedside lamp on the mahogany side table next to my bed frame. The room was neatly arranged and painted purple. It was my favourite colour. I trained my ears to check for the source of the noise. I saw it coming from the large window in my room. I reluctantly got to my feet, dragging my tired legs clad in oversized pyjamas. I opened the window, waiting to yell at whoever was disturbing my sleep, not giving a second thought to the fact that it could be a dangerous person. “What do you w-” “It is freezing out here, Iris! I have been knocking for hours.” “Pfft!” I scrunched up my nose, “Couldn’t have been for more than two minutes. I’d know because you woke me up immediately.” She frowned, “Can I come in now?” I opened the window all the way up and moved
I let out a deep sigh as my parent's laughter filled the room. I stared at my untouched plate of food. My parents spoiled me carelessly. It wouldn’t have taken them any minute to notice that I wasn’t eating if they weren't all over each other. My mum was telling the story of her trip all over again
IRIS I was sitting at the edge of my bed, happy and texting Theo. Tianah is here too, and we were supposed to be discussing and chatting, but I was so busy caught in the web of my sweetheart that I could barely even hear a word she was saying. "Hey!" Tianah snapped, and I could see her face go red
IRIS It's been two weeks since I met Theodore. I was literally getting obsessed with everything that had to do with him. His touch, care, and affection were all I needed in a man, and he was that and more! I sat in front of the mirror, anxious as my mind raced through a lot of things. Tomorrow wa
IRIS "Let go of my hand, you monster!" I yelled at the top of my voice as Oscar tried to pin me down. "Iris, let's try and talk over this." He pleaded, but I wasn't ready to hear another word from him. He was a liar, a cheat, and only loved me because he found my father's wealth mesmerizing. He di
