We stared at his ashes unable to move or speak because all of us are at loss. We thought we would be able to get the answers that we needed, but before he can tell us more he end up getting burned and died.“This is just wrong,” Leon said, as he finally breaks the silence, “This is just fucked up.”I have to admit that everything was really fucked up. Everything was just so fucked up. We found ourselves with another dead end. “We can’t let them take the lead once again,” I said, every second, every minute, every hour that we wait for the next attack just makes us more vulnerable to the enemy. “We all know who the enemies are but the problem is they always have the upper hand against us,” as much as I hate to admit it. It was all true, Ares always have the upper hand because of Isabel. We all know the power that Isabel wields, and we also know how much she loves Ares. Her love and loyalty to Ares was something that the four of us have witnessed the hard way. “I’m sorry,” Calvin said
I watch how Nori takes care of Mikey as we eat our breakfast. I know that one of the reasons why he chose to adopt Mikey was because he saw himself with the kid. Well aside from the fact that Mikey really seems like the young Mikey that we all knew. Sometimes it makes me wonder if Mikey was really Nori's real son. “Baby,” Athena called as she tries to get my attention. I gave her a smile. “Do you need anything?” I asked as I gently stroked her tummy. I am both excited and at the same time, I am also afraid. I am excited to meet our Little Wolf, to be able to talk to him or her while I have him or her in my arms. I wanted to hear our baby cry, and giggle. I want to change his or her diaper or help Athena as she gave our Little Wolf a bath. There are so many things that I wanted to do with our Little Wolf. I guess that feeling comes to every expecting father naturally. Aside from the things that I wanted to do with our Little Wolf, I also pray and hope that he or she would look like
We patiently wait for the person involved to say something. No one spoke a word as we all look at the person who would be able to help us find the answer. After a few minutes, he sigh and said, “I need some fresh air.” Just like Lana did, he didn’t wait for us to give him an answer, instead, he started to walk away. He opened the door of the office, walked out, and let the door close behind him. “What the hell,” Leon blurted out once Nori was out of earshot. “What is she planning?” He asks angrily. The history between Nori and Lana goes way way back. We all stood witness to everything that the two of them went through. I am not quite sure how to really describe what they have and I will not judge them as well. “The problem we have right now is not to know the reason why Lana wants to have dinner with Nori,” I said, trying to have Leon and Calvin focus on the important matter that we are dealing with right and not have their emotions cloud their judgment, “The problem we have now is
“Athena,” Nikki called out as she enters the pack house’s mini-library. “I am here,” I shouted, I was seated on the floor beside one of the bookshelves. I didn’t know that the pack house this much of books and some of them are even documentaries of the previous people of Purple Hill. I will learn so much more here than from the books that I will buy in the book store. “I never knew you love reading,” Nikki said as she sat beside me while placing the tray of food she was carrying on the floor. “Is that even allowed here?” I asked. “As long as you don’t mess up the books I think no one will care,” Nikki replied. “And my brother will be very much more concern that you ate and not getting hungry than having some books ruined.” I laughed. “You hate books,” I said as I took a bite of her freshly baked cookies.“It’s not that I hate them,” she said as she stared at the stacks of books by my feet, “You finished all that?” She asked in surprise. “Yeah,” I said, “Let’s just admit that I
Something’s going on, I can feel it. The awkward silence between the Alphas around the dining table is unusual. Also, Calvin is here. Well, Calvin usually drops by for dinner, but there was something in the air that I am not used to. ‘Did something happen?’ I asked Nikki through a mind link.‘You feel it too?’ Nikki asked back.‘What do you mean?’ I asked. ‘Something is up with the four of them,’ Nikki replied. ‘Yeah,’ I answered, ‘Something is definitely up. Can you feel how over the edge they are? Has Leon told you anything?’ ‘Nope,’ Nikki replied, ‘I just hope that they are not causing any trouble.’ I took a deep breath and looked at the four Alphas once again. “Whatever it is that you want to know, you all know that all you need to do is ask,” I said as sweetly as I could. I heard Drake sigh and saw him run his hand through his hair. Something he usually does when he’s frustrated and when his frustrations concern me.“We will talk about it after dinner baby,” Drake said hi
"Okay, I need all the details," Nicolo said as he entered Little Wolf's room, "And don't you dare keep anything from me!"I know Nicolo was being serious but I couldn't help being playful with him. I missed him so much. "Nothing really happened," I said innocently."Don't you dare pull that I-am-innocent-and-I-don't-know-anything-crap-on-me," I know that Nicolo is just teasing me but at the same time I can feel his threat, "How did the Luna of the great Purple Hill ends up in the room of her baby and not in the room that she shared with his Alpha, who is her legal husband? But wait there is more, this particular Luna will also go on a date later, in a bar that she owns to meet the ex-girlfriend of her best friend who by the way is now her husband!" That's it, I can't stop myself from laughing anymore. Imagine Nicolo saying the things he just said in a declamation pose or better yet, imagine him as some kind of a stage actor who is currently on stage delivering his lines complete wit
I did it once again.I watch Athena leave with Nikki leaving me behind as I mull over my stupidity. ‘I don’t know why you keep repeating the same mistakes over and over again,’ Levi said as he makes fun of me. ‘Shut up,’ I shouted at him. ‘How stupid can you get?’ Levi asks, ‘You know that our Luna hates it when you decide for her.’‘If you are smart why didn’t you stop me,’ I asked him. ‘I was asleep,’ Levi snickered. ‘Don’t give me that bullshit,’ I retorted. ‘Don’t go blaming your mistakes on me,’ Levi said, acting all innocent. ‘Well just so you know, Athena won’t be sleeping in our room tonight which means that you won’t get to sleep with her as well,’ I have no patience with this wolf right now. I block him before he can even reply. “We can still back out,” Nori said silently, “I’ll just make up some excuse why Athena can’t come. You should go and beg for her forgiveness.” “It’s okay Nori,” I said as I run my hand through my hair, “Athena won’t change her mind once she
As I walk out of the room I know that there is one person who wouldn’t stop looking at me. I know that he now understood his mistakes and how sorry he was. I also understood that he did what he thought was right at that moment not only for himself but for the pack. It was his job to keep the pack and our family safe. I am not punishing him to get even. I just want him to know and realize that he can always talk to me. That our bond would go deeper if he would trust me. “Wow,” Nori exclaimed when he saw me, “Should I change my clothes?” His question was directed to Nicolo. “Nah,” Nicolo replied. “Mafia Boss look is fierce and hot.”“Told you that you’re a Mafia Boss,” Leon said smiling.“Relax,” I said to Nori, “It’s just dinner,” I touched his arm trying to calm his nerves but instead I heard a low growl behind me. But I didn’t pay him any attention, instead, I pulled Nori closer and we started walking out of the packhouse. Once we were at the door, I heard Drake clear his throat
