“When will he come back?”“I don’t know, Luna,” Ethan replied. “A few rogues caused trouble this early morning, and the Alpha went to investigate it. He only said that we need to stay put.”Nessa didn’t want to be here, but what else could she do but wait for Keagan’s return? Therefore, she stayed in her bedroom.But around afternoon, when she decided to eat something, she saw three warriors discussing something among themselves.“I don’t know how to cook.”“Go and buy something to eat.”“But there are a lot of ingredients here. It will be a waste not to use them.”Nessa listened to them and figured out what their trouble was. She entered the kitchen and volunteered to cook for them.“This is not for us, Luna.” One of the warriors with buzz-cut hair quickly explained. “We gathered the ten children in one room. One of the warriors who knows how to cook made something for them this morning, but that warrior is now following the Alpha, and no one knows how to cook.”“Got it.” Nessa smile

“How do you know about it?” Keagan asked Nessa. She looked pale, her eyes fixed on the children inside the cages.In total, there were ten of them, and they were younger than ten years old. Four of them were human children, while the rest were shifters.All of them huddled inside their cages, which were too small for their bodies. The sight was heartbreaking and bone-chilling.And it wasn't just ten of them. There were three lifeless bodies in the corner of this secret room. Their bodies were still warm, which meant it had not been so long since they lost their precious lives.“Nessa.” Keagan shook her shoulders to get her attention. “Go with Ethan.” He realized this was not the right time to ask her how she could find this place.Ethan took the initiative and led her way out of the basement.“I was shocked when she found this place,” Lance said after Nessa left with Ethan. “She even knew how to open the door. If it were not for her, the only thing in my mind when I saw the gargoyle s

“Where are they?” Keagan asked. He looked at Carel dead in the eyes. He was one of his subordinates, a shifter who took care of his business around this area.However, after the dispute with the North River Pack exploded, he learned that Carel had been fabricating the monthly reports of the factories here.He provided for the North River Pack for years. But not only that, he was also involved in a shady business. There were many shifter and human children who had gone missing in this city over the past couple of years.However, since it was not a safe neighborhood, they viewed it as a criminal activity that was not their responsibility to deal with. After all, there were authorities here.How wrong Keagan was…“We have sent them all to the North River Pack…” Carel replied; his voice was trembling. He was still kneeling on the ground. His hands were cupped in pleading for the Alpha's mercy. “I am sorry, Alpha. Please, show some mercy. Please, give merit to my years of service.”“Years

There was no explanation for that, and Nessa didn’t know what implications it could have, but she thought it would increase the gold's value if Keagan intended to buy it.They arrived at the second location when the sky had turned red and the sun was almost set.Nessa got out of the car and looked up to see the black smoke from the factories floating in the air. Somehow, she felt as if she had seen this scenery before, but she was not sure where.It could be her mind was playing tricks on her, or there was a high chance that she had seen this in some movies she had watched.Shrugging off these strange thoughts, Nessa followed Keagan and the others into a huge house, with blue dominating the entire building.There were four gigantic pillars on both sides before they reached the double doors. It was open and showed spiral stairs to the second floor.There were many statues of magical creatures, and even the pillars were carved into the image of a Chimera.This place was astounding but a

The next day, to Nessa’s surprise, Keagan took her out with him. He woke up early and waited for her in the lobby after she finished her breakfast.Nessa went down; Ethan followed behind her. He was quiet and wouldn’t talk unless it was necessary.In the lobby, she also saw Lance. Her eyes lit up when she saw the gamma. He often appeared cheerful, and it was an infectious energy.Nessa must be excited to be out and meet a few people; it showed on her face. Of course, it didn’t go unnoticed by Keagan.“Good morning, Lance,” Nessa greeted him, smiling widely. They got closer after she cooked him dinner back in the old house of the Alpha. Moreover, they had met and interacted several times before that.“Good morning, Nessa.”“You call each other by name?” Keagan picked it up immediately.Lance gave him a look. “I call you by name.” He then hastily added. “Only in informal settings. I will not forget my place, Keagan.” He didn’t see anything wrong with it.And Keagan couldn’t point out wh

Drake had stooped so low by bringing that up, but seeing the rage and pain in Keagan’s eyes, it appeased his own anger. He had never been rejected so outright like this.“Stay away from her,” Keagan warned Drake and then stepped aside to avoid him.He walked out of the room, but ordered a warrior to keep his eyes on his father’s movements. He knew his father well. He did not respond well to rejection.Turning down his help wouldn’t make him back down; instead, he would see it as a challenge to his authority, especially with the problem as big as this one.After talking to Drake, Keagan went to his room and found Nessa watching a movie. She was surprised to see him.“Alpha, are you angry?” Nessa blurted out when she saw the look on Keagan’s face.“I am not.” Keagan went straight to the bathroom to calm himself down. His conversation with his father earlier made him realize that he had given himself another problem.This was not only about dealing with the North River Pack, but also cha

Quirino walked down the corridor of the hospital, every step he took seemed to have its own meaning for him. Every step brought him closer to Morana. Every step is filled with regret, anger, disappointment and other feelings that Quirino cannot explain in words. He was really angry when he learned that Daniel had sent Morana to a mental health institution without her consent. How come? When Quirino last met Morana and their relationship was still pretty good, Morana didn't show anything. Except for the fact that she had visited Dr. Sherry, for several meetings, everything seemed fine with her. Quirino knew this because at that time, he had ordered several people to follow Morana because she suddenly disappeared and her whereabouts was unknown. There were no indications that Morana needed to be treated. Hence, how could Morana end up in a place like this now?! Something is wrong with Daniel and Morana's relationship! Quirino wouldn't have left Morana if he knew Daniel would take

As Daniel had expected, Quirino was waiting for him in his study.Daniel stood frozen in the doorway, stared at Quirino's back which was turned away from him, stared at his row of medical books, but it seemed that he was only doing that so that he would have something to do.Because even though Quirino heard the sound of the study door opening and closing and Daniel's footsteps echoing in the empty room, he remained unmoved and still did not turn around.Even though the conversation hasn't started and Quirino still refuses to look at him, Daniel knows and understands that the six months that have passed have not changed anything about Quirino and his feelings for Morana."Quirino," said Daniel who then walked over to his brother. He stopped just a few steps away from him, not sure if he should approach him any closer.Quirino slowly turned his body and when their gazes met, everything became foreign to both of them. It was as if they were no longer the two brothers who were very close

Quirino doesn't know whether his decision is right or not, but one thing is certain, he wants to return.It was a desire he had harbored for a long time and now he has a reason to return.The only reason he wanted to come back.After yesterday's call, Quirino was very sure that it was Morana's voice. It must be her voice. Quirino knows her voice very well.Even though Morana didn't say much and only said his name, Quirino could feel the despair that the girl was facing, just from one sentence.Was it because Quirino had overly interpreted this brief moment? Or was this just his delusion because he kept thinking about Morana?Whatever the reason and somehow with how Quirino felt he decided to return, and whatever it was… here Quirino was, waiting impatiently on his flight.Quirino felt that he was really crazy, with just that one word and Quirino had run as fast as he could to approach Morana.Quirino knew that what Morana used was his brother's number and how Morana spoke in a whisper

"Sorry, I can't." Quirino said in a hoarse voice to Silvi who was already half naked underneath.After saying that, Quirino immediately got up from his position on top of Silvi's body and then picked up his shirt which had been scattered on the floor.Silvi widened her eyes when she felt the weight of Quirino's warm body leaving her.They haven't even started yet and Quirino is about to leave? How can he be so cold?Silvi immediately buttoned up the shirt she was wearing and then ran after Quirino who was about to leave her apartment."Quirino!" Silvi, who was only wearing a shirt and underwear, immediately ran into Quirino's back and hugged him tightly, pressing her face against the man's broad back.Quirino was not surprised, did not resist or move in response, he just stood there, frozen. Letting Silvi say what she wants to say."Quirino, give me a chance," said Silvi with suppressed tears.All this time Silvi thought Quirino was the right man for her, that their social status was

Silvi pulled Quirino's neck and tried to kiss him, but Quirino quickly pulled away from her and pushed her body away.Quirino didn't think she was a woman and couldn't control his strength when he tried to avoid her. Letting her fall down.This made Silvi groan in pain, but Quirino paid no heed to it and left, slamming the door of his study when he came out.Turns out that putting Silvi back in her position wasn't a good idea, but got her fired again would only provoke his father's anger and that was the last thing Quirino wanted in the midst of this endless turmoil in his heart.Tonight it looks like he will spend his time at the bar again...Only by drinking some alcohol was Quirino able to escape from Morana's shadow, even if it was only for a moment… it didn't matter, even if only for a moment Quirino wanted to enjoy his own life without the disturbance of the woman who had become his brother's.Morana… how are you…?Quirino's heart whispered softly.# # # Quirino woke up with hi

Too long…Morana has been gone too long.Daniel felt something was wrong and his suspicions were later confirmed by the commotion that occurred in the toilet, where Morana had gone.Immediately Daniel got out of the car and headed for the women's restroom which Morana had entered and found Morana's body had been carried by a man.From Morana's arm, there was a cut that was still bleeding.Among the crowd that surrounded her, Morana saw Daniel who was charging forward while pushing several people in front of her while saying something that Morana couldn't catch.Every sound around her was ringing painfully and all Morana felt was a numb feeling.The last thing Morana remembered was looking into Daniel's eyes.One word that can describe the man right now is; Fright.For a moment Morana was happy to see the fear in his eyes, that means he still cares right?But then, when Morana blinked, the darkness that covered her made her stay there.Cold and silent darkness.A familiar place for her
