“What is it?” Simon asked, a moment after hearing Ronald sigh. He could tell it was not generated from the conversation they were having, and with the abrupt pause Ronald had made, it was most likely that a link had occurred.
Ronald took in a massive lump of air before saying, “Lucille just linked me. She says we’ve got a visitor. A special one.”
“A special visitor? Who exactly could the Luna be talking about?”
“Just who we began talking about not too long ago,” Ronald said and then turned around to head back into the building. “Elder Damien is here,” he added.
No other words were exchanged between the two again as they both strolled into the main quarters of the building. It was sort of a mutual thing as they clearly understood that the visitor they had wasn’t one they should keep waiting for long.
They went into the main quarters through the back door and proceeded di
Know what they call bad timing? Walking in on two people discussing and receiving pressured stares from them is bad timing.I knew I shouldn’t have stepped into the building yet. And even if I wanted to, I should have just used the back door. But what else could I do when I was already exhausted after a long walk back from the woods of the packhouse.I guess there was nothing I could do in that regard other than to accept that I fell into an awkward situation I did not predict. I’m pretty sure what they were discussing had much of a discreetness to it because the moment I passed by the entrance into the living room, they weren’t saying anything.Whatever they were discussing, it has nothing to do with me, I hope. But I might eventually become the topic discussion between the Alpha and the stranger I saw seated with him. And that was the craziest thing to even think about.I have to
Garrett hit the brake and then put out the car engine via the ignition. He retracted his hand back to the wheel, staying rigid with his head down. His hands continued gripping the wheel even after a few seconds since he put the car to a halt. And when his hands began tightening on the wheel, it proved he was going through an internal turmoil.He knew it was another time again where he would get to see his mate. Another time where he would have to put up with her constant act of ignoring him. And that was the reason he wasn’t looking forward to seeing her. He somewhat dreaded it, not bothering even to think it through because there really wasn’t anything for him to think through.He sighed, attempting to take the thought off his mind before looking up. And through the front view window of the vehicle, he could see the lighted building of the main quarters of the packhouse under the starry night. Through the window, he could also s
“Lia, get up,”I heard a slightly excited voice close to my ear, but I couldn’t even tell where it was coming from. However, my best guess would be that the voice belonged to Anya.‘What?’ I grumble wordlessly as I try to turn over on the bed so I could face up, but I was utterly exhausted even to perfect the attempt. Instead, I just stayed put with my body lying sideways. When I realized I hadn’t received a response from Anya since I supposed it was her telling me to wake up, I spoke, this time without the use of the link, “What?”“It’s me, Lia. Get up,”Now I was getting confused as to where the sound was coming from. Was it from my head or not? “Anya?” I say out loud, still trying to get a hang of myself.“Nope, it’s me, Monica,”‘It’s Monica,
“Stupid car. Who made this crap that can’t move any faster?” Garrett complained as he tried to increase the vehicle's speed, only to realize he had gotten to the point where he couldn’t. He looked annoyed, almost agitated too, with his sweaty face steaming like he had gotten himself in a fight not too long ago. The strands of his hair were making way to his eyes as the speed of the car had gotten to a range in which the wind passing through was blowing hard on his face. He was lucky he had left the main human territory already, or he would have been issued a ticket for passing the speed limit. But that wasn’t going to pass him by at the end of the day. ‘You might need to slow down a bit,’ the voice of Derek got into his head, but he tried to pay no attention to his wolf as he could sense the taunting that was laced around the words. Not until Derek said, ‘I wonder why you have to be on such speed so you can get to the packhouse in time,’
Why do I always have to walk in when people are having a conversation? Why do I keep getting myself in the middle of awkward situations like this? Not that this one was too awkward of a problem. I mean, it was just a brother and sister catching up or something. It was only uncomfortable because I decided to walk in when they were in the middle of it.I can’t tell if I should leave or stay. And being that both Garrett and Monica were staring right at me, I had no idea what to do. I should blame most of my attitude because I saw Garrett right there, with no proper way of knowing how I was supposed to feel about him. Guilt mostly overwhelmed me because I had realized already that I was tormenting him for nothing.Uncle was right; the effect of Garrett on me was only increasing after my failed attempt to fight through the so-called bond.“Hey, Lia, you’re here,” Monica speaks, saving us all from the u
There is something Monica wasn’t telling me... something she was trying to hide from me. Whatever it was had so much weight that she just couldn’t bring herself to say, which is fine by me.After the little time I had with her yesterday, I was able to find out a thing or two from her. One of which was that she had something against the stranger I found out to be Brix’s grandfather.It was a little strange when she reacted out of likely disgust after affirming the man’s identity to me. But she had tried to cover up all the same for her sudden irritation. Whatever issues she had against the man has now piqued my interest, adding that to the list of things I needed to conquer. Who knows, it might be a link to all of what I intend to find in this pack.Asides from her sudden snap about the stranger, I remember what she had been doing that also caught my interest. The constant stares she had given to t
The Green Woods pack should be the most secure. With everything I’ve learned about this pack before my arrival, it never has issues regarding security and the likes. And for sure, that has been evident since my arrival. But... what the hell was a fucking rogue doing here, for crying out loud? Don’t panic, I tell myself. I guess the main question should be how a rogue got in here in the first place. It’s complicated and undoubtedly unbelievable. Even if my eyes weren’t seeing well, the stench was all over the place to indicate what was not too far away from me. I was beginning to get disgusted by the protruding smell emanating from the brown wolf. Even though this should be the first time I encountered a rogue, the disgusting smell was enough to feel like it’s been the umpteenth time. Rogues were different from the original pack members when it came to scent, sanity, and demeanor. Rogues becom
A bright light hit my eyes so bad that I had to force myself to open them. I happen to realize it was the ray of the sun but with no idea how it managed to penetrate through the window to my face. What I do know is that it had disturbed one hell of a sleep.I stare up at the ceiling, trying to make out the outlines. There was something different about the way it looked, especially with the positioning of the light bulb overhead. It then took me back to the question of the sunray penetrating through to the room when I had the position of the bed in a way that prevented such. Or did I have the bed’s position changed already? I guess not.I sit up from the bed, pulling on the sheets from my chest as I take in the overflowing scent that was rampaging my nostrils. And that was when it hit me. This wasn’t my room!My first instinct is to look around because I literally have no idea how I got into a room that isn&rs
