I burst the doors open, and the first sight I catch is that of two lifeless bodies on the ground. They looked like that of the guards I had seen when I had arrived here hidden in Garrett’s car. But what I know is that their being down was not my doing. I might have been in a clash with those agents but I did not extend it to this point.
What was left for me now was to figure out which direction that monster had run through. He would be long gone by now, which I am sure of after using some time inside beforehand. If I had my hyper sense, I would have traced his scent but that cannot be possible at this moment.
I can rely on my instincts now and so got down from the balcony of the building. The woods on the side of the main route wasn’t as thick as the regular woods so I could see through it. Nothing caught my fancy, though but it meant I was not going to acknowledge that path. After thinking for a few seconds, I proceed to go with
Life was slowly seeping out of him right before my eyes, with silent grunts escaping his lips. Just like that, his ability has completely vanished from his hands as he put them down slowly. The hand that went through his chest is pulled back slowly to reveal a hole right there with a lot of blood dripping from the open wound. I wouldn’t know what to call that because it was akin to doom in my opinion. When he goes down to his knees, I get a clear picture of who committed the act on the elder. “Monica?” I whisper because I cannot speak out loud. But it was more than likely to get the attention of the dark-haired lady standing behind the elder. She was the last person I would expect to be here. Not even in my wildest dreams would I see her lending a hand in such a situation. We might have let her in on a bit of our plan but I never imagined she would follow up in some way. Her gaze was aimed di
Most feel obliged when they eventually discover who their mate is. And there are others who think it is the perfect work of the moon goddess no matter the circumstances surrounding it. Well, I'm among the latter but not in the loving type of way. But if you were to look into my case deeply, you could say it's in the most sinister way possible. I believe the moon goddess knows my purest intentions. She knew I had big plans, a goal to accomplish, and she served it to me on a platter of gold. And for that, I'll forever be grateful to her. Others might not know this, but I, for one, know the moon goddess has a synchronicity with our thoughts. She knows every little thing we feel, down to our hidden desires, and has everything planned out for us. I know it may sound cheesy to sound like only I know just how the moon goddess works, but what she did for me is worth rambling on and on… only in my mind. Ten years ago, I had
Two years ago, I was human. No, I should say I forced myself to be human. I will still wholesomely say I had been human because I had no qualities of being a wolf aside from my parents' being one. But literally, I would say I was the worst human to grace the planet earth due to how antisocial I was. I mean, who would want to be friends with someone whose mind harbored different thoughts on how to take vengeance?After I had escaped from the crisis that occurred to my pack years ago, I lived with my grandmother, who was human. Honestly, I would say it was a big miracle how I had been able to get out of the woods alive, but here I was, still alive and well.My identity was a two-timer, more like a hybrid as I was both wolf and human. My father had been pure wolf from an Alpha bloodline and had broken the order of the wolf pack by being mated to a human who then became my mother. Such a thing wasn't outlawed anymore, but it was frowned upon in
I didn't have complete control of my actions or behavior as I had something inside of me that most times guided me from making drastic decisions. That was my wolf, the one which I had acquired on my sixteenth birthday. She was a part of me, like the other half of my soul. So whenever it looked like I was about to go out of line, she always brought me back on track.The moment I had wanted to start seething with rage, she had instantly cautioned me to stop. It didn't take too long for my wolf's warning sound to restore my mood to how it was initially, but I knew I wasn't going to last that way for long. Not when I was directly in front of the werewolf that had been the cause of my parents' death.I had to be careful of the way I behaved, though, because I knew something about wolves being able to perceive the fear of others. And Alphas were known to have a greater sense for something like that. So one mistake from my end could give out my hid
Instantly, I got a reply via the link.‘Lia, are you okay? It took you a while to get to me. Did anyone recognize you? Are you in any problem?’That was my uncle for you, always so panicky despite being much older than I am. Or should I say generations because I wasn’t even sure of his age. I wouldn’t blame him, though. I was the only one he got and me, him.I made a slight chuckle through the link, even going as far as laughing out loud unintentionally. No matter how antisocial I was, that didn’t prevent me from getting a good laugh now and then. And my uncle sure did always give me the opportunity to do so. ‘Do you really think anyone’s going to recognize me? It’s not like they know I actually did survive that incident,’ I told him, suppressing the urge to laugh at him again. Since my mind was working with my physical self, a smile had been plastered on my face already.‘We can’t be
Running — that was something I hated. But as I ran at the moment, it was because I had no other choice but to do so. It was a matter of life and death for me, although I would mostly say it was out of an impulse to find a way out of where I was.The woods were thick, and there were thorns on the ground that were causing blisters to the sole of my feet that I could feel as I had no covering to my feet. I don’t know how long I have been running for, but I knew I had to get away, far away from where I was coming from. I didn’t even know where I was heading to, but I just had to keep up with the pace.There was no single soul out here, so going through the place was causing an emotional trauma for me. I was scared, and for the little girl that I was, I had begun whimpering. I only had to hope I was safe from harm because right now, I was more than prone to danger. Anything could be out there for all I know. The fear of rogues was what got me bothered the
“Who is she? Why does it seem like I know her somewhere? Like I’ve met her someplace before…” Ronald McKenzie asked himself as he paced about the main quarters of the packhouse. He had his hands folded behind his back as the cold weather breezed through the windows right into the quarters. The main quarters had a combination of mundane and ancient interiors, from the furniture to the other pieces of equipment. It made it have an otherworldly vibe to it, and this was primarily due to how long the occupants have been in there. It was right in the early hours of the day since he got up from bed just to think through something. The bags under his eyes made it a realization that he didn’t even have a nice sleep. He had been continuously pacing about since he arrived in the living room, proving that he indeed had something on his mind. And whatever issue it was, it seemed to be more than what he could handle. &nb
I was bored. Extremely bored. And the only thing that came to my mind for me to do was to walk around inside the passageways of the main quarters of Green Woods packhouse. And yes, I was doing that alone, coupling the boredom I was experiencing. It’s been three days now since I first stepped foot into the Green Woods pack. And yesterday, I finally moved into the packhouse since I was mated to someone among them. It was the obligation of any she-wolf to move to the pack of her mate if he was from another pack. Even though I kind of wished I hadn’t moved yet, it still felt right that I had decided to undergo that sooner. My uncle had been entirely neutral when I left his place yesterday. He hadn’t shown any sort of reaction all through the time I had been reshuffling my stuff to move out. And I couldn’t even tell how he truly felt that I was finally leaving him after being with him for two years because I, for one, had been so down.
