Chapter: Chapter Five Elma I lingered in the shadows for a while, waiting. In the distance, the sound of the sea crashing against the rocks filled the silence, along with the natural sounds of the woods.The woods were thicker and harder to reach here, one of the reasons why this was the perfect place for me to meet people. I naturally claimed this territory to be mine.I straightened up, alert, when I heard some noise in the distance. My wolf was on alert, too. I listened intently to her and the noise to see who it could be.I didn't step out of the shadows of the trees until a familiar figure stepped out into the clearing and headed towards the cliff's edge. But even then, I took my time to watch him.I couldn't understand why, but something had been bothering me lately, making it harder to lean into my natural intuition.When I didn't step out immediately the figure scanned the woods, missing me easily.I smiled to myself. It was Pat, one of the most skilled killers, yet he missed me even when I was pa

Chapter: Chapter FourRidwan It took us a while to get out of Vic's house. We found a lot of hard drives that seemed to be full of data. It'd be given to Blake, our head of the cyber team, to see if we could find anything else about Lynda. I found some notes made by Vic about some of Lynda's previous work. I had ensured to take them as well.It was dark when we finally managed to leave. It took us a whole day just to do this work, and I was feeling agitated because I had other plans for today as well, but I couldn't take care of them because of raiding Vic's house. Despite all of this, we were one step ahead.We now knew Lynda was a she-wolf, and she lived somewhere on the southern coast. Interesting. Very Interesting. Of all the people, it happened to be a she-wolf.Who could have ever thought about that?But it kind of complicated things for a bit. Usually, we knew all our enemies, and most of them happened to be men.There were a couple of she-wolves on the list, too, but I could imagine none of them t

Chapter: Chapter ThreeRoshanI glared at the screen, reading the email from my cyber security team. The same thing happened again. Our systems were hacked and important files were corrupted. I grind my teeth while reading through the whole damage assessment my cyber team did. This wasn't the first time that something like this had happened. This was becoming almost routine by now. Despite all our efforts, someone always found a way around all our security checks, and this was now starting to grate on my nerves.So far, we have a list of culprits who could be behind this.The list consisted of three names. I would hunt them all down at any cost and make them regret their whole life. I'd ensure they died the slowest deaths, begging and crying for the quickest way out, but they wouldn't have it.No one ever crossed me and got away with it. I always hunted them down and gave them the most torturous death so they wouldn't dare to be born again.Before I could drive my fist through the screen, my phone rang up

Chapter: Chapter Two"Fate can only do little"***ELMA.✿"I would like someone kind, soft and nurturing," I began finally finding my voice after the deafening silence that sat between us."Kind and nurturing," The moon goddess mused, her voice sounding as though she was jotting it down and taking notes. I could not help but feel tempted to turn and look.'Be careful, you don't want to push your luck,' I sighed, warning myself"But at the same time, merciless and aggressive," i mumbled, more to myself, hoping that she had not heard me.I was fully aware of how contrasting my demands were, but oh, it lit up a fire inside me. I hadn't thought about this properly before. This was the first time I was thinking about my likes and dislikes in a person.More like I was finally given a chance to voice out my hidden emotions and to a safe person, the moon goddess would not judge me, right? Otherwise, I generally dated whoever I found mateless, and that was a minuscule population that was constantly vanishing. So

Chapter: Chapter OneWhat happens when you get tired waiting for destiny?***ELMA.✿"Are you happy for Tessa," Shera's voice cut through the music, attracting a few gazes in our direction. The neon lights giving the entire place a bubbly feel but at the same time, making it impossible for me to make out anyone's faces."Yeah she seems very happy," I trailed off, letting the glass linger on my lips as I strain my eyes in the direction of the happy couple. They seem so happy, holding each other tightly and swaying in the direction of the musicThe groom bends over and whispers something in the bride's ear that gets her giggling.I couldn't help the tear that escaped my eyelid at the sight of the sweet couple."Who wouldn't be, her mate is Nelang the commander of the pack soldier," she chimed, flashing me her new set of teeth jewelry. "I guess I am even luckier because they are both my best friends," I shrugged indifferently, my lips curving into a smile, downing whatever was left of my glass of whiskey.
