She came back home after her day in college ended. It was really weird today but she managed it.
When she reached her home and found the door opened, she frowned. A normal thought visited her mind. Was there any thief inside her home?
She gulped hard when the thought flashed in her mind. No way! How would she be able to fight the thief then?
‘You have me, stupid! Just let me come out and I’ll rip their limbs apart!’ Ayla growled and Daisy just nodded her head. She cannot take any risk. If there is any thief then she has Ayla to come out.
Clutching the strip of her bag, she silently stepped inside. The lights were off and no sound was coming to her ears.
She was confused. But then she realized thieves do not make sounds.
She silently put her another step forward and reached the living room. She clutches the door knob, making sure she makes no sound.
But then she stopped suddenly.
She smelled that familiar fragrance and frowned when she found it really familiar.
Opening the door, she yelled, “Mom, Dad!”
Oh yeah, she was right. Her parents were back after attending their relatives’ wedding.
“What happened, Daisy? Why did you yell?” Sofia, her human mother looked up at her when she poured the tea into her husband’s cup.
“Nothing mom, I thought there was a thief inside but then I smelled you.” She replied casually and walked in. She threw the bag on the floor and sat on the couch, next to her father.
“Oh dad, I missed you so much!” she said and the man smiled at her. Warmly. She missed that warm smile too.
He put the cup back on the table and hugged her. His wide and old palm caressed her back. She closed her eyes, letting that nostalgic feeling crawl up to her mind and body. She missed that warm touch and soft affectionate caress on her back.
“Me too, dear.” His deep and low voice echoed through her ear and she smiled. She inhaled that vintage scent of his clothes and smiled, mumbling, “Your smell. I love it, dad.”
He chuckled and his body vibrated. Both of them pulled away and she got up to hug her mother.
The same feeling settled inside her chest as soon as she hugged Sofia. She then pulled away and poured some tea into another cup, mumbling, “You must be tired, my child. Have it.” She fetched the cup to Daisy when she settled back on the couch, next to her father.
“So how was the function?” asked Daisy, sipping her tea.
“Good. We had fun.” Sofia smiled, mentioning the fun they had. Daisy nodded, “Oh, that’s great.” George, her father, hummed in response, tasting his tea.
“And what about your meeting with Arnold?” Sofia mentioned as soon as she remembered him. She knew he wanted to meet Daisy but she did not know the reason.
Sofia’s question was like a pinch on her two days old wound. It was of course unintentionally asked by her, otherwise she is the best mother for Daisy.
“We…we just broke up,” she said, lowering her head because his memory hit her head so badly. Not a second passed, her eyes brimmed with tears but she looked up, blinking away the tears.
Both of them did not speak for a moment.
“He rejected me, mom.” She bit on her bottom lip, preventing herself from bursting into tears but her efforts went in vain. They always go in vain anyway. She cannot stop her tears and end up crying and sobbing.
“He rejected you?” Sofia held on her shoulder with concern. Daisy nodded, “He doesn’t want me as his mate. He...he wishes someone sharper and…bold who can rule the pack like a real Luna, mom. That’s...that’s why he….”
George, who was sitting on her right side, could not see her bursting into tears and pulled in his arms. His hands caress on her back while he comforts her, “It’s okay, Daisy. Calm down.”
“B-but dad, I like him.” She confessed, clutching the fabric tightly between her sobs.
Sofia’s eyes welled up with tears. She glanced at George. He too looked so helpless right now. He always gave her what she desired but at this time, it was a helpless situation. He cannot make Arnold like her the way she likes him.
“Calm down, child. It’s his misfortune that he couldn’t think wisely.” Sofia rubbed her back.
“Yeah, otherwise my daughter is a diamond and only a true gemologist can find her worth.”
She sniffed but could not stop her cries. They were trying their best and it was even working on her. Their words, their touch and their care towards her.
After some minutes, she stopped crying but did not pull away. She stayed in his arms, not wanting to pull away and George even let her stay like that.
Sofia also kept caressing her back until her sobs stopped. Once they were sure, she was fine, Sofia called out her name softly and she hummed in response.
“What do you want to eat today?” asked Sofia. “Something made up of eggs.” She replied with no pause but her voice came hoarsely low.
“Oh that’s great!” answered George. He turned to Sofia with that excited look, uttering, “Right?”
“But we don’t have eggs. Have to buy them.” Daisy replied, pulling away and wiping her tear-stained face.
Her nose turned pink and the pinkish glow of her cheeks even increased by crying for a long time.
“Hm. I’ll go then,” Sofia got up but Daisy held her wrist, stopping her, “No mom, I want to go out. I’ll buy it.”
George and Sofia glanced at each other. They knew it would be good for her if she goes out. Her mind would be distracted easily and she would find peace.
“Sure.” Both of them agreed in unison. They passed her a warm and beautiful smile. She smiled back and got up to leave.
Reaching her room, she just washed her face and came out after wiping the water off her face.
Taking the money, she left for the shop. It was evening and the sun had already set. But going out in darkness is her habit also, she doesn’t fear anything when she has Ayla with her.
She was walking on the silent road. It was empty. Nobody was there to be seen. The road was clear. Moonlight coming through the moon mixed with the streetlight landing on the road. Silence was spread on it and only the sound of her breathing was reaching her ears.She was not afraid of anything around her. Walking alone in such an environment was her habit. Even she liked it. Silence always gave her soothness.She kept on forwarding her steps. Her one hand was in her jacket’s pocket while the other was holding plastic bags.She brought eggs, some black pepper and some green chillies. She raised up her shoulders when a little gust of cold breeze passed through her neck, sending a chill down her spine.“Oh my goddess! It’s freezing
Without even eyeing her, he just took the knife and turned his body towards the man.Daisy kept staring at him. It was unbelievable. She never knew that the new student would be murderer. She fucking could not believe it.Her jammed mind did not work the moment and nor did her wolf say anything. She did not even realise when the wounded man tried to get up and leave.He knew he was stuck in this situation. He was old. Older than the tall and bulky guy or should she call him a man? Whatever she calls, his strength was always more than the wounded man.The old man tried to run away. He tried to save his life. Ahaz saw it and dashed towards the wounded man.Daisy was watching this and her eyes widen
Her white skin shined under moonlight just like his pale one, but her skin bloomed more because of the pinkish glow on her cheeks and nose.Her electric ocean orbs were just settled on him. Those blue eyes reflected fear and anxiety at the same time. Fear of him and anxiety of his next move. He liked it! Those fearful orbs of hers. They were beautiful as well as so alive. So alive that his heart would have beaten if it was alive. But her eyes made him feel alive for a second.And then his eyes fell on her lips. They were trembling like a leaf. Just like how a leaf trembles in spring. Their color attracted him even more. Those pink rosy petals were wet in this autumn season and invited him to have a taste.Gosh, he could not say no to that urge. He could not control that forbidden urge of tasting her lips
When she arrived at her home, Sofia was concerned after seeing her face. Of course, she looked annoyed as if someone had punched her cheek roughly but kissed on that spot after that.“What happened?” Sofia grabbed the bags from her hand and put them on the table, before looking at Daisy again.She sighed. “Nothing, mom. Just met a friend who annoyed the hell out of me.” She sat on the table and watched her mother laughing.“What’s funny?” She frowned. Sofia stopped laughing for a moment and answered her, “Anybody can annoy you, Daisy. It’s damn easy.”Daisy nodded nevertheless. She is well aware of her nature. She gets annoyed easily. No doubt what Sofia said. She admits it wholeheartedly
“A wizard who betrayed us.”“A wizard?”“You thought a human?” he mocked and chuckled when she nodded.“You werewolves have high senses so it should be easy for you to claim who is human and who is not?”She just lowered her head. His continuous questions were just making her regret once again. She has regretted a lot and now she is not in the mood to cry once again.“I… actually I didn’t learn to use my… powers.” She looked down. She literally felt so embarrassed. Especially when there was a skilled vampire sitting in front of her.For a moment, Ahaz was also surpri
“Oh you know him, Daisy?” came George’s voice when he found Ahaz passing Daisy a smile.“Um… my classmate…” she said and Ahaz added, “And her friend.” The smile on his face could not resist.George and Sofia glanced at each other before nodding.“Well, your friend is a really nice man,” George smiled and got up. He patted Ahaz’s back and he passed him a small smile.“Yeah, he’s sweet.” Sofia also praised him and Daisy looked behind her. Sofia passed her a smile and then looked at Ahaz. “I think it’s done. Come down when it’s finished. I’m making coffee.” She walked away.Georg
“What are you doing!” she wriggled but he did not even budge. He even pressed her more into the soft couch, decreasing the distance between both of them.“You’re not safe with me, remember?” He whispered and leaned closer. “Also, I want to teach you how to use your tongue.”“What?” she uttered loudly, her eyes broadened.“Yeah, you said my kingdom isn’t famous, right? Even though it’s one of the most powerful empires!” he glared at her, making her regret the next second.“B-but I said it because mom dad didn’t even hear the name before. That’s… that’s why I had to…” she could not complete it because of the lack of words inside
A knock on the door interrupted both of them. She got startled and looked into the direction of the door. But his eyes never left her face. Her beautiful face was a sight to behold.When she looked in the direction, she saw that the door was closed. She sighed. Otherwise whoever was on the door must have seen what was happening between both of them.Even though it was not intentionally by her side, she was embarrassed to the core. She was embarrassed because somewhere she was enjoying his touches, his teasing and everything presented by him.Also, Arnold was still there in her heart. She did not let him go and that was the main reason for her embarrassment.She looked back at him and muttered, “Get off me!”
