Mag-log inI'm just a wolf-less omega bitch and a fuck-up Cromwell that's descended from a dirty rogue. No wonder my pack and my own mother... think I'm the one that killed my father. But, I didn't... kill my father. I wound never kill him. He was my only friend in this pack. The only one I could relate to. I had no friends... I only had my dad. And, since I only had him... when he was gone I had no one. So, I spend my lonely hours dedicating my life to studies. I graduated early from High School with an outstanding GPA. But, even that never impressed my mother enough. So, When it came down to it... My mother didn't hesitate to accuse me of my father's death. Her hatred for me was unspoken until that moment. The moment she caught me pulling a knife out of my father's chest. It was buried in deep. And, when I got it out... I heard her horrid scream. One that was dramatic. I was forced to break eye contact from my father's corpse to see her standing on the kitchen's edge. Her hands on her cheeks. A gray and sickly color caked on her face. She could have fainted any second. "What have you done?"
view moreAyana mengayuh sepeda dengan riang hati gembira menuju rumahnya. Sepanjang perjalanan senyum terus tersungging di bibir mungilnya. Kecantikannya pun semakin bertambah ketika angin sepoi-sepoi berembus ke arahnya dan menerbangkan rambutnya.
Ayana baru saja pulang dari warnet bersama teman-temannya untuk mendaftar kuliah secara daring. Ia sudah tidak sabar ingin segera sampai di rumah. Ia hendak meminta uang pada ayahnya untuk membayar uang pendaftaran kuliah yang akan ia transferkan besok melalui bank.
“Assalamu’alaikum, Ayah ...!” sapa Ayana senang saat melihat Pak Cahyo duduk di teras rumah sambil mengudut rokoknya.
“Wa’alaikum salam. Dari mana kamu? Jam segini baru pulang!” tegur Pak Cahyo saat melihat putrinya baru pulang lantaran sudah pukul empat sore.
Ayana sempat tersentak kaget mendengar teguran ayahnya. Namun, sesaat kemudian ia tersenyum sambil memarkirkan sepedanya di halaman rumahnya. Setelah itu ia mendekat ke arah Pak Cahyo dan mencium punggung tangan sang ayah dengan takzim.
“Dari warnet, Yah .... Aku dan teman-teman baru saja mendaftar kuliah di Jogja,” jawab Ayana sambil duduk di samping ayahnya.
“Apa? Jogja? Kenapa kamu nggak minta izin Ayah dulu, Ayana?” balas Pak Cahyo marah. Ia pun segera membuang puntung rokoknya lalu menarik tangan Ayana dan mengajaknya masuk ke dalam rumah.
“Kenapa, Yah? Bukannya Ayah senang kalau aku kuliah biar bisa jadi guru kayak Ayah?” protes Ayana seraya menatap ayahnya.
“Bukan masalah kuliahnya, Ayana. Jogja itu jauh. Ayah nggak bisa ngawasi kamu!” balas Pak Cahyo lalu duduk di kursi ruang tamu. Ia sengaja mengajak Ayana masuk ke dalam rumah agar perdebatan mereka tidak didengar tetangga sekitar rumah.
Ayana mendengkus pelan mendengar penuturan ayahnya.
“Yah ..., aku sudah besar, Yah. Nggak perlu diawasi lagi. Toh aku nggak sendirian di sana. Banyak kok teman-temanku yang juga kuliah di sana,” tutur Ayana meyakinkan ayahnya. Ia masih sangat berharap agar sang ayah memberinya izin kuliah di Yogyakarta.
“Nggak boleh pokoknya! Kalau kamu mau kuliah, lebih baik yang dekat rumah saja. Biar Ayah bisa menjenguk kamu setiap saat di kost-an!” pungkas Pak Cahyo lalu pergi masuk meninggalkan Ayana.
Ayana mendesah pelan usai mendengar pintu kamar Pak Cahyo ditutup. Ia kesal karena ayahnya tidak memberi izin dirinya untuk kuliah di Yogyakarta. Padahal ia dan teman-temannya sudah berencana sejak lama untuk kuliah di Yogyakarta. Dengan begitu ia dan teman-temannya bisa jalan-jalan di jalan Malioboro setiap hari sepuasnya.
Tidak lama kemudian pintu ruang tamu dibuka seseorang dari luar. Ayana pun menoleh dan melihat sosok ibunya yang baru saja pulang dari arisan di rumah Bu RT.
“Assalamu’alaikum ...,” ucap Bu Retno.
“Wa’alaikum salam,” balas Ayana dengan wajah yang ditekuk.
“Kenapa kamu cemberut gitu?” tanya Bu Retno saat melihat ekspresi wajah Ayana. Kemudian ia menutup pintu ruang tamu kembali.
“Ayah nggak ngizinin aku kuliah di Jogja,” jawab Ayana lalu menghempaskan bokongnya di atas kursi empuk yang ada di belakangnya dengan kasar.
Bu Retno pun turut duduk di samping Ayana sambil mengusap punggung Ayana dan tersenyum.
“Jogja itu jauh, Ay. Ibu juga nggak bakal kasih izin kok kalau kamu mau kuliah di sana,” ucap Bu Retno dengan lembut.
Ayana semakin memajukan bibirnya karena tidak ada dukungan dari kedua orang tuanya.
“Ayah sama Ibu sama saja! Nggak bisa ngertiin perasaanku!” Ayana marah lalu bangkit dari duduknya dan pergi masuk ke dalam kamarnya meninggalkan Bu Retno yang hanya bisa geleng-geleng kepala melihat sikap anak gadisnya.
Nigal and Virgle were the two brothers stuck watching over me. I picked up that they were wolves when our scents were isolated in the elevator that seemed to be the only way in and out of that pint house. The aroma of the place seemed like it was used to being visited as the many scents that spread out in that place confused me. Nigal was the one that let me borrow his phone. They took me to the hospital in a set of vehicles that multiplied the security on me.The hospital was fifteen minutes away from where I had been staying. It was a huge building about six floors high with a huge cross on the center of its entrance side. The hospital's name was Silverback Medical Center. We stepped into a lobby where I instantly made eye contact with Artyom. He was standing nearby in a changed outfit from the last I saw him. He was thuggish looking in my eyes now. The way he stood and the men that surrounded the room but were not looking at him. They all looked the same. The uniform was black tie
Alpha Artyom's scent was fresh in the air as if he had been here within the last few hours... but he was not here when I woke up. I was back to human as well as in changed clothes. Someone had bathed me and clothed me while I was out of it. I felt different from last time... I felt a little bit calmer now... as if I were accepting what happened... Casimir is dead and there is nothing I can do to change that. I must go on because that is what he would have wanted me to do... but now all I want is to live and nurture this hunger inside me my wolf was after. There was a deep desire to cross the boarders back into Camren's territory and hunt him down... the worst part is I do not know why I felt that way... was it longing to mate with him next or was it because I wanted to kill him because he is guilty for what happened to Casimir?I changed into a fresh change of clothes since I did not want to be stuck in lounge wear. I picked out an oversized red/black stripped shirt, tank top for und
Ethan's POV:I stepped toward Cas as his last statement was more of a command for me. I would personally see that Cas at least makes it through until Camren no longer needs him. I leaned in toward Cas' wounds to sniff them. I transformed into my human form and went to pull Cas over my shoulder to carry him."What did you say?" I asked softly as his ear passed my mouth. I wanted to know the dark secret he shared with my alpha. I lifted him up without hesitating and realized he really wasn't that heavy. I felt blood gush out from his wound and realized moving him probably won't be a good idea. I rushed him back to a laying position. "Cam!" I yelled as I realized his body was growing cold. I felt for his pulse as anxiety ran through my veins. His lifeless eyes were staring back at me as I realized he wasn't... here anymore. He was with the moon goddess now. I couldn't find a pulse so I reached up and shut his eyes. I glanced around to find Camren glaring at us with disappointment in hi
Ethan's POV:I was discharched from the hospital and sent home on doctor's strict orders to rest. But my mind was too busy for resting. I wanted to go for a run but I didn't want to go alone. The only person I could think of was asking Camren to join me. I took the elevator up to his floor to give me a speedy access. There wasn't any fresh scents going to his room which meant he had no vistors and it was the time of day I would expect him in. I didn't knock when I reached his apartment, since I always knew he sensed me when I was coming for him. It was an unspoken gift he had as alpha. Cam's day room had not changed since I last saw it. Vixen was asleep on the blue couch and didn't even flinch his ears when I walked through to look for Camren. The apartment was not open floor plan as it was not within interest of any werewolf. Much less Camren, who liked the finest of things. I took the hall past his lavish kitchen and went past the closed doors for spare rooms I knew he used as offi
Life seemed to come back in my eyes. It must have been a couple of hours since I was under the influence of the medicine that was infused with the syringe. The sun broke through a cloudy bank we were crossing a wide field with nothing but the open sky and heavy snow as far as the eyes could see. I
Jossie's POV:"Wake up," Cas whispered in my ear. It was freezing, the only warmth came from his heat as he had me resting against his chest. I raised my head to feel something was off, my hair raised on my arms as if I was being watched. Where am I? I glanced around to find us sitting in the area I
Ethan's POV: Yellow roses, sunflowers, and pink tulips were the first to be seen when I opened my eyes and raised my head slowly. Those were recognizable flowers for patients getting well in the hospital's ward. I smelled the hospital's bleach stench of sterilized equipmen
The bullet train took us down into the city's skyscrapers built for the harsh weather amongst the mountains. This place looked like it stayed frozen year-round. The city- everything from the neon flashing signs to the tinted windows was made to withstand. The bullet train's tracks were the only thin
