Nathan Black"Unbelievable." Ethan shook his head, unknown of other way he could express the horrid feeling looming inside him."I–I'm telling the truth." The young man choked out, "It was all his plan right from the very beginning. He knew we were stranded after we were exiled by our previous pack.""He offered us a place to build our home and he acted all nice at first." His eyes were unfocused as he retold the story, as if his mind had to go through the event again."Then, I realized that one by one, our people had gone missing. I thought nothing of it until one of my close friends disappeared, right after he had met Sir Joshue." He panted, a tear slowly glided down his skin, seeing the ache he tried to suppress."It turns out, he had been tossing us, one by one to the Luna Pack, attacking their border." he sniffled, flicking his eyes upward as it met mine. "B–But you know how strong the pack was, everyone knows." At the mention of our pack, I averted my sight away from his undou
Emma Grey"Do you think they're already back?"Lina pondered, hands were busy setting the plate on the dining table for our breakfast. I shrugged heedlessly, flipping the bacon on the pan. Feigning the anticipation creeping inside my chest at the thought of him by my side.Though, realizing she couldn't see it with her eyes on the table, I replied curtly, "Not sure.""Don't think so. Pretty sure they will be at your door first thing if they are." Allan snickered, huffing a chuckle as though his mind had played a scene we had no knowledge of."What do you mean?" That had picked my curiosity, turning my head to my side, seeing him help out in preparing the tea for the morning. "Nothing." I eyed him pointedly to his short reply, narrowing my eyes as his amused smile grew wider. Knowing he wouldn't explain himself, as he brought the teapot to the table, I scrunch my nose in annoyance. It's fine. I'll let it slide today, he had told plenty enough yesterday. A smile graced my lips as t
Emma Grey "I think there's something beneath us." As though confirming my words, the knocks returned. Now that we stood in the center of the room, we could hear it radiating from the floor. Only this time, it was getting weaker by each second when it suddenly disappeared, clawing the nerves that fumbled through my senses. Something's not right. What could it be? Adding to the fact that it resounded below the ground, how can that possibly be? Could there be an unknown basement underneath the house? I've lived in this house for 20 years, surely I would've noticed if there were peculiar things happening over the years. Right? Though, I couldn't deny that I spent most of my time in my room, away from mom's sight. It was actually easier for those matters to slip by my attention. The question now was, how do I find the door? The only furniture there was in here was the worned looking set of couches with a soft shaggy brown rug underneath it. And also a radio on top of the wooden co
Nathan Black"Ah, you! Emma's sister!"Her long brown hair flipped away as Eva startlingly whipped her head towards me. We had almost made it to the pack when I saw her along with some others a couple of feet in the forest.I could only assume she was on her patrol duty, seeing the way she led the whole group. I recalled appointing her as one along with others the minute I was informed of the disappearance of Sir Joshue.Her brows furrowed, probably weirded out seeing a number of men running straight to her, visible through her change of stance. Though when she had decipher who it was, her muscle instantly relaxed, huffing a relief."Oh, it's you." She muttered, eyes diverted to each of us when it suddenly dropped in disappointment, as if she couldn't find the one she was looking for.She shook her head. Her eyes met mine again, gone was the glint the second it had appeared."Is there something you need assistance with?"The question I was about to let out died in my throat as I left
Emma Grey"We meet again, little cub."The corner of his lips tilted upwards, almost too vicious for the likings. I immediately avoided his eyes, paying additional attention to the cracks of the ground."I see you found something you shouldn't have."It was unnerving. The very presence of him had always set an uncomfortable feeling in the pit of my stomach. Before I had realized it, the wolf in me had already bowed her head down, having been trained for so many years.As much as I was grateful for nature, for them to bring me and Nathan together, there was a slump to it. One said to let nature take its course, to let it flow in time, and all troubles and worries would pass by. When in fact, it will only roll up like a snowball, so big that by time you realized it, it was too late to change anything. Just as similar to our blind obedience to Sir Joshue."Oh, come on now, don't look so bummed out." His feet moved further eerily, step by step, having it echoed through the space.I ins
Nathan Black"Since when was that here?" The confusion laced through Eva's voice, cautiously stretching closer to the entrance on the floor. The door was hung open, revealing an almost dark alleyway to the basement, if not for the shadowy hue of redness and orangeness accompanying the area."They're not in their room." Nico hollered from the stairs, his boots tucking to the woods as he made his way to the living room."They're not in the kitchen either," Ethan suddenly appeared from the corner, he swept his hand till it was visible to my eyes. A piece of bacon dangled between his fingers, before he popped it in his mouth, "... With an unfinished breakfast. This does not look good, Nat." Ignoring the fact that he ate someone else's food, my mind concentrated on his unsettling words. It sure seemed far out.Where would they go, in such a hurry, that they had left the door unlocked, food unattended, and room emptied. As though they're still in the house, but not quite.My eyes darted
Emma GreyThere were many things that I had assumed on why on earth he was so troubled, seeing the broken chain freed the woman. As though one of his so-called trophies had been taken down by his mortal enemies."You, wench!" He hoarse out, still pinned to the ground with Allan attempting his best to hold him in place.Though, I knew it wasn't for long.I could see it. The blood trickled down his skin, along with the open cuts, the splitted on his lips and some other places. The trembled in his hand, forcing his power to push Sir Joshue under him. Discerning for a fact that his consciousness almost slipped through with how much he had blinked his eyes, adamant on being awake.That I knew, with a little more struggles and trashings from Sir Joshue's side, he would likely escape his grip.And I am most certainly sure, Allan wouldn't live a day if that was to happen. Not when he had left Sir Joshue with bruises and cuts, his own blood flowing from his nose and the corner of his lips.
Nathan BlackI'm most certainly sure, no doubt of it, if Allan was actually conscious, he would be all giddy right now.Why?Oh, it's nothing, really. Except for the fact that Eva, even with her feral fights against Sir Joshue, never once had left his side. Far, but always close enough that if anything were to happen, she would be there in an instant. I saw it with my own eyes, and I couldn't comprehend why Allan was so doubtful of her thoughts on him. When she acts all possessive over him.If only he knew. And I was fully aware how not far off she was to become completely feral, if her slitted eyes hadn't given the hint.I managed to dodge another punch from Sir Joshue, angling myself to the side. Though, as fast as I could muster, I strided a couple steps back, already anticipating Eva's presence.Looking into her alarmingly unusual focused eyes, nose scrunched in wrath, it wouldn't be a surprise if she hadn't been alert of her surroundings. Though, her claws were held back, mi
