MannyWith every punch and kick I received from my mate, I felt a huge sense of loss. Initially, I thought that she just wanted to vent her frustrations. However, when she let out that chilling aura, the killing intent in her eyes was unmistakable. At that point, I felt as if I had lost her. That left me no choice but to try something abruptly. I turned into my wolf form and she stopped. I laid down just so that she would know that I meant her no harm. I could not help the whimpers. Physically, I was not hurt, but the emotional turbulence ran deeper. I felt a deep ache right at the very core of my heart. To me, everything Aria did, was akin to rejection. Any wolf knows the pain of rejection and no sane werewolf would ever opt for that. When she sat down and put my head on her lap, it soothed my pain a bit. However, the dent her adamant rejection left on my soul was almost irreparable. As an Alpha wolf, we tend to feel everything ten times more than the other wolves. I am lying her
Unknown POVSplendid! Things are slowly developing in the right course. Surprisingly, not much effort was needed from me. I wonder why there is any disparity between the dwellers of this universe. Beast or human, they are all the same. They have the same desires.The love of power and wealth. The desire to possess unfathomable power and accumulate a ridiculous amount of wealth. It is both amusing and somewhat, pitiful. It amuses me because it is the same weakness among humans and supernatural beings alike. Even more so because it has been the same from days of yore. I feel pitiful because greed has always been their downfall as well. That dates back to those who passed before them. So, I pity their lack of either foresight or hindsight. It is as if they never learn that it is an unattainable and lofty goal. No one can attain such tremendous power and wealth and still hold on to their humanity. Wealth and power only corrode the conscience and corrupt the mind. But hey, who am I to w
Manny"Luke Reynolds, it has been three days since my son turned into his wolf and still refuses to shift back. I don't care whatever method you intend to use. I need my son back! Even if you have to use your alpha command on him, so be it!"My mother's wails bombard my ears. I can hear her and I feel her heartbreak but what to do? I have no desire to shift back at all. My mate feels close to my wolf form than my human form. Therefore, it is only fair that I grant her wishes."Ella, please calm down my dear. He will shift back soon."I can tell my father is also broken but he is trying his best to soothe mom. However, mom counters and her tone is agitated and vicious."Calm down you say? How can I calm down? You know very well that if this lasts for a week, his human side will eventually be dominated by his wolf side. He can become feral and a danger to everyone! What will you do then? Put him down because you will have no other choice? Let me tell you this now, that will be over my d
AriaIt breaks my heart every time I see the big black wolf lying motionlessly on the bed. I can sense that he has no desire to return to reality any time soon.Unfortunately, I seem to be the only one who can see through his deceit. Everyone else believes that he is unconscious. However, I cannot be fooled. My master taught me all these breathing techniques a while ago. Since he has decided to guilt trip everyone, I intend to see how long he can hold up. Of course, I am not going to be villainous and expose him. To a certain extent, I am quite amused by his shamelessness. The size of his wolf and the antiques he's playing are just hilarious. How dare he throws such a tantrum?At first, even I believed him, and del quite awful for what I did to him. However, during the first night, when I snuggled closer to him, I picked up a flaw in his breathing. That is how I discovered his little secret. Everyone has been glaring at me with either hatred or resentment, especially when I ensure t
Manny"You darned sly fox, you! How dare you turn back and hug me whilst naked? If I don't beat you up today, then my name is not Aria!"She screams the moment she realizes I am naked. Aria throws a pillow at my face as she moves away backwards. She bps into my mum and gasps. Then her face turns beet red in shame. I am not sure what she is thinking, but I guess she is wondering what time they got in here and how much they saw. I look straight into her eyes and wink. Her temper flares again and she rushes towards me and starts punching me in my chest. I can tell that she is not exerting her full strength at all. From the corner of my eyes, I see my family retreat and close the door. I mindlink my mum to get me something to eat. After they go out, I grab my little mate's hands and I cannot help but gaze at her beauty."I am sorry love, can I get up now and take a shower and possibly change? Mum will send food then maybe we can talk afterwards? I am feeling sweaty and clammy as well as
AriaWhat the heck am I hearing? Does this foolish mutt want to imprison me? For what? I cannot help the self-deprecating smile that creeps onto my face. I wonder what happened to him in the bathroom. To think that I was here talking about accepting him. I just called his parents and the elders to explain to them why it might take a while for me. I just wanted to let them know that I have decided to befriend Manny.For a person like me, that is a huge sacrifice. I prefer to be alone. I detest attachments. Hence, proposing a friendship is quite a huge step for me. Here he is out for my blood. What exactly happened to him in that bathroom?Truth be told, I am feeling somewhat, hurt by his actions. It is quite a foreign feeling for me. I have not felt anything for anyone else in a long time and this is the first. Well, I do not blame him. I blame myself for letting my guard down. Had I not entertained the idea of warming up to Manny, his words would not be hurting me now. It is because
AriaHow I wish I comprehended the ways of the supernatural beings! If only I had taken the time to learn their ways, I would not have been in this predicament. However, not all hope is lost. I can use this time to gather enough information on them as possible. The reason why I am in this place is not even sensible at all. It has made me believe that there must be something unnatural happening to Manny. I am not a superstitious person but I think I have become a believer now.Who would not, in my situation? Firstly, we move thousands of miles away, only to land in the heart of supernatural beings. If that is not enough for anyone to believe, then wouldn't I be considered utterly lost?According to the little knowledge I have on werewolves, a mate can never hurt their other half. In fact, they would rather die than turn against their mate. So, would I be considered crazy if I begin to believe that Manny is not himself?As incredulous as the idea is, I am convinced that my mate is being
AriaI know that I will never be able to thank Ben enough. This flash disk he brought for me is a deep well of insightful information. I am eternally grateful for what he has done for me. Now, I have a clear understanding of the ways of the supernatural world. It has a lot of information on all the supernatural races. I can safely say that I have grasped a lot of basic principles and even some in-depth understanding of this world. According to everything that happened lately, I am very certain that sorcery is at work here. Someone somewhere is altering our emotions. Particularly me and Manny. With the little, I know about him, he would never wish for me to be subjected to this kind of humiliation. Therefore, him locking me up in this crammed-up dungeon, can never be his choice. Well, it appears as if it is his own doing, but I am choosing to believe otherwise. I have already made a promise to myself to be on his side. Even though he is not in the right frame of mind to see things c
