View MoreMABILIS ang lakad ni Cain pabalik sa sariling opisina, na umiigting ang panga at mariing nakakuyom ang kamay.
Mukha man natural ang ekspresyon ngunit sa loob-loob ay gusto na niyang magwala. Pabagsak pa nga niyang binuksan at sara ang pinto. Pagkatapos ay walang ingat na naupo sa swivel chair sabay dukot sa bulsa at hagis ng ring box sa office table dahil sa iritasyong nararamdaman. Nagagalit siya ngayon dahil sa nobya-- dating nobya matapos nitong iwan siya at makipaghiwalay sa text. Plano pa man din niyang mag-propose ngayon pero ito, halata namang hindi na matutuloy. Problema niya ngayon ang Abuelo na inaapura na siyang magpakasal bago man lamang ito mawala sa mundo. Kapag hindi niya naibigay ang hiling nito ay paniguradong matatanggalan siya ng mana at babawiin sa kanya ang posisyon sa kompanya. "Hindi pwede 'to," aniya saka tinawagan si Margaret. "Sagutin mo, ano ba!" May kumatok sa pinto sabay bukas. Papasok sana ang sekretarya'ng si Katherine nang sigawan ni Cain, "Labas!" Sa gulat ng sekretarya ay natapon nito ang dalang tasa ng kape. "S-Sorry po, Mr. President," anito na natataranta at hindi malaman ang gagawin. Kung aalis ba o lilinisin muna ang natapong kape sa sahig. "Hindi mo ba ako narinig?!" Sa takot na muling sigawan ay mabilis na lumabas ng opisina ang sekretarya. Matapos ay buong maghapong mainit ang ulo ni Cain. Sa halip na umuwi sa mansion ay mas minabuti na lamang niyang magtungo sa bar, doon magpapalipas ng init ng ulo kasama ang kaibigang si Jared. Ngunit panga-alaska lang ang natanggap niya mula rito. "'Nu ka ba naman, Cain. Hindi mo dapat pinoproblema ang mga ganyang bagay. Ika nga nila... maraming isda sa dagat, mamingwit ka lang, paniguradong makakahuli ka." "Anong gusto mong palabasin?" aniya matapos uminom ng alak. Tapik sabay akbay ang ginawa ni Jared. "Maghanap ka ng pakakasalan tapos ipakilala mo sa Lolo mo. Easy, 'di ba?" "Gag*, kung makasabi ka ng easy parang 'kala mo madali talaga. Kasal pinag-uusapan dito hindi simpleng paghahanap ng babae dahil kaya ko 'yun." Natawa si Jared. "Edi, 'wag mong pakasalan. I-bahay mo na lang." "Bago mangyari 'yun, paniguradong binitay na 'ko ni Lolo." "I-hired mo bilang asawa, 'yung mga napapanuod sa TV. Gawin mo 'yun." Tinulak ni Cain ang kaibigan na muntik mabuwal sa kinauupuan. "Alam mo, lasing ka na kaya mas mabuti pang itigil na natin 'to't umuwi na." "Teka, teka. Hindi ako lasing, okay? Ang sinasabi ko rito. Humanap ka ng babaeng pwedeng i-kontrata bilang asawa. Tapos 'pag nakuha mo na 'yung mana mo-- hati tayo, a? Basta, 'pag nakuha mo na saka mo hiwalayan, i-terminate ang kontrata. 'Di ba, ang dali lang?" "Kalokohan. Uminom ka na nga lang kaysa kung ano-ano pa'ng sinasabi mo." ~*~ MALAMYOS na tugtugin at malamlam na ilaw ang bumungad kay Katherine pagpasok sa bar. Kasama niya ng mga sandaling iyon ang bestfriend na si Lian. "Sa kotse na lang ako maghihintay," aniya. "Hindi pwede, magtatagal ako kaya tara na," ani Lian sabay hawak sa kamay ng kaibigan. Matapos ay tinungo ng dalawang babae ang VIP room kung saan naghihintay ang fiance ni Lian. Ngunit ang totoong dahilan ni Lian kaya isinama si Katherine sa bar ay dahil sa kaibigan ng kanyang fiance. Pagkatapat nila sa pinto ay binulungan niya si Katherine, "Nasa loob ang crush mo." Nanlaki ang mga mata ni Katherine at nagtangkang umalis nang mabilis na pigilan ni Lian. "Uuwi na 'ko, marami pa 'kong gagawin sa bahay," palusot ni Katherine. Hinawakan ni Lian ang magkabilang balikat ng kaibigan. "Hindi ka pwedeng umalis, bakit? Kasi kailangan ka niya. Alam mo bang nag-break na sila ng girlfriend niya? It means, malungkot siya ngayon. Kailangan niya ang kalinga at pagmamahal mo," aniyang may halong pagbibiro. "Ayoko pa rin," ani Katherine kahit nabigla sa ibinalita nito. "Sad boy siya ngayon. Saka, minsan lang 'to mangyari, palalampasin mo pa ba?" Bigla namang bumukas ang pinto at nagpakita mula sa loob si Jared. "Babe, kanina ka pa ba riyan?" Lumingon sabay halik sa labi si Lian. "Kararating lang namin." Saka lang napansin ni Jared ang kasama ng fiancee. "Oh, kasama mo pala ang kaibigan mo. Tara, pasok kayo." Saka nilakihan ang bukas ng pintuan. Napasinghap naman si Katherine nang magtagpo ang tingin nila ni Cain. Ang kanyang boss at ang lalaking tinutukoy kanina ng kaibigan. Ang mali lang ni Lian... ay hindi na simpleng crush ang nararamdaman ni Katherine. Matagal na niya itong minamahal... walong taon, simula ng una niya itong masilayan. Ganoon katagal niyang itinago ang nararamdaman at wala siyang balak, ni minsan kahit sa isip man lang na ipagtapat ang pag-ibig kay Cain. Wala siyang karapatan. Sa agwat ng estado nila sa buhay, maghahangad pa ba siya? Siyempre, hindi na. "Anong ginagawa mo rito?" Biglang natigilan sa pag-upo si Katherine sa tanong ng amo. "S-Sorry po, Mr. President--" Biglang natawa si Jared kaya natigilan si Katherine. "Nakakatuwa rin 'tong kaibigan mo, babe. Kahit wala na sa trabaho ay tinatawag pa rin si Cain na Mr. President." "'Wag mong pagtawanan si Katherine kundi mag-aaway tayo," babala ni Lian. Sabay-sabay naman silang natahimik hanggang sa nagkanya-kanya na ng mundo. Si Jared at Lian ang magkausap at kapwa intimate sa isa't isa ng mga sandaling iyon. Habang sina Katherine at Cain ay tahimik lang sa kanya-kanyang puwesto. Nang medyo nakakarami na silang lahat ng inom ay umalis muna si Cain para magbanyo saglit. Ang medyo lasing na si Jared ay hindi napigilang idaldal ang problema ng kaibigan. Kung ano-ano na ang pinagsasasabi habang si Lian at Katherine ay nagkakatinginan sa isa't isa. "May mali ba sa suggestion ko?" ani Jared. "Magandang solution naman ang mag-hired na lang siya ng pakakasalan, 'di ba?" "Ay naku, lasing ka na, babe. Kung ano-ano nang sinasabi mo kay Cain," ani Lian. Ngunit ang ikinuwento nito ay tumatak sa isipan ng lasing na si Katherine. At nang pauwi na silang apat ay biglang humirit si Jared, "Cain, pwedeng isabay mo na si Katherine?" Habang akbay ang fiancee. "Babe, isinama ko rito si Katherine, 'di ko siya pwedeng iwan," ani Lian. May kung anong ibinulong si Jared sa fiancee na agad nitong ikinahiya. "Ang bastos mo talaga~" ani Lian. "Ano, Cain? Pwede bang ikaw na ang maghatid sa sekretarya mo?" ani Jared. Nagkatitigan ang magkaibigan saka iiling-iling na binalingan si Katherine. "Tara sa kotse," ani Cain. Tahimik namang sumunod si Katherine matapos magpaalam sa kaibigan. Nang nasa sasakyan na ay mas lalo siyang kinabahan. Paulit-ulit sumasagi sa isip ang ikinuwento ni Jared. "Kaya ba mainit ang ulo mo kanina sa office, kasi naghiwalay kayo ng girlfriend mo?" lakas-loob niyang tanong. Kunot-noo'ng lumingon si Cain. "At sino naman ang nagsabi sa'yo niyan? Saka, baka nakakalimutan mo kung sino ako? Kung kausapin mo 'ko--" "Wala naman tayo sa trabaho kaya hindi mo 'ko secretary ngayon," mapangahas na wika ni Katherine. "Lasing ka ba?" "... Kung kailangan mo ng babaeng magpapanggap bilang asawa mo ay ako na lang." Biglang natawa si Cain. "Nasisiraan ka na ngang talaga." "Kailangan mo ng babaeng mapagkakatiwalaan, malapit sa'yo at handa kang paglingkuran... at ako 'yun, ang sekretarya mo." Napatiim-bagang si Cain. Sa isang iglap ay hinawakan niya ang batok nito sabay siil ng halik sa labi.The weight of the revelation settled into Olivia’s bones like a heavy cloak. The ancient magic within her bloodline, the curse, the pact—all of it swirled in her mind, gnawing at her thoughts. She had always known her power was unique, but now she understood that it was far more dangerous than she could have ever imagined. The magic inside her wasn’t just a gift; it was a volatile force, capable of destroying everything she loved if left unchecked.As Caroline’s words echoed in her mind, Olivia felt the full magnitude of her responsibility. The path ahead was shrouded in uncertainty, but there was one thing she knew for certain: she couldn’t walk it alone.Ralph stood at her side, watching her with quiet concern. He had always been her rock, her protector, but even he couldn’t shield her from the weight of the power she carried.“Olivia,” he said, his voice low, “you don’t have to do this alone. We’ll find a way to make sure you stay in control of it.”Olivia met his gaze, feeling the
The days passed in a blur of preparation. Olivia's mind was a storm of plans, questions, and the overwhelming weight of responsibility. The pack was rebuilding, the wounded healing, but the unease that had settled in her chest never quite left. Every time she closed her eyes, she saw Amelia’s face—the twisted smile, the cold, calculating gaze. Her aunt had been defeated, but Olivia couldn’t shake the feeling that her death had only been a small piece of a much larger puzzle.Ralph was with her, as always. Together, they spent hours with the pack, making sure every member was accounted for, every threat assessed. But in the quiet moments when they were alone, Olivia couldn’t help but feel the pull of something ancient, something tied to her bloodline, still waiting to be unraveled.It was late one evening when the feeling finally came to a head. Olivia sat by the fire, the flickering light casting shadows on her face. The pack had gone to sleep, leaving the two of them in the stillness
The days after the battle were filled with a strange kind of quiet. The forest, once alive with the sounds of combat, now hummed with a different energy—one of mourning, healing, and rebuilding. The pack had won, but the cost had been high. The bodies of fallen warriors had been laid to rest in a small clearing, their names whispered in reverence by those who remained. They had fought bravely, and their sacrifice would not be forgotten.Olivia walked through the clearing, her steps slow, each one heavy with the weight of the lives lost. The wolves of Crestmoon Pack had always been her family, but now, that bond felt more profound than ever. It was her responsibility to ensure that their sacrifice meant something—that their deaths were not in vain.Ralph walked beside her, his presence a quiet comfort. He had been by her side through everything, and she could feel his protective gaze on her, even when he didn’t speak. There were no words for the grief they both shared, no way to ease t
The silence that followed the battle was deafening. It was as though the world had paused to take a breath, waiting for the inevitable aftermath to unfold. Olivia stood in the center of the battlefield, the dust still settling around her, her magic humming faintly in the air. Her heart was still pounding from the intensity of the confrontation, the surge of power that had flowed through her. But beneath the exhilaration, there was a quiet emptiness, a weight settling on her shoulders as the reality of what had just occurred began to sink in.Amelia lay sprawled on the ground, unmoving, her body twisted in a way that made it clear she was not getting up. Olivia’s magic had struck her down with such force that there was no mistaking the finality of it. It was over. The woman who had sought to control her, to manipulate her, was defeated.But Olivia couldn’t shake the feeling that something was still wrong. The battle was won, but the war—her war—was far from over. The traitor within the
The battle raged around Olivia like a storm, the air thick with the scent of blood and the clash of steel. But despite the chaos, her focus remained locked on the figure in the distance—Amelia. The woman who had caused so much pain, who had torn apart families, and who now stood poised at the edge of the battlefield, watching with cold amusement as her forces clashed with the pack. Olivia’s heart thundered in her chest, each beat resonating with the promise of the final confrontation.She could feel the presence of her aunt even from across the clearing, the oppressive weight of Amelia’s power a palpable force in the air. There was no mistaking it—Amelia had been preparing for this moment for far longer than they had. Her power was raw and unbridled, but it was no match for the strength Olivia had within her. Not anymore.The wolves were fighting with everything they had, their movements synchronized, their spirits unwavering. Ralph’s form cut through the battlefield like a whirlwind,
The pack moved swiftly through the dense trees, their shadows barely visible under the faint glow of the rising sun. The sound of boots on the soft earth was muffled by the roar of the wind, still carrying the remnants of the storm through the forest. Olivia led the charge, her heart steady, but her mind whirling with thoughts of what was to come. Every step took her closer to the confrontation with Amelia, and she could feel the weight of her destiny bearing down on her.Ralph was at her side, his presence a quiet strength she had come to rely on. His eyes were fixed ahead, his focus unwavering, but Olivia could see the flicker of concern in his gaze whenever it met hers. He knew the risks as well as she did. There was no guarantee that they would emerge victorious, but she couldn’t afford to think of failure—not now.The pack was ready. The warriors, fierce and loyal, had trained for this moment. Caroline moved beside Olivia, her expression resolute, her eyes scanning the trees for
The night was heavy with anticipation, the air thick and damp with the remnants of the storm. Olivia stood at the edge of the pack’s training grounds, staring out into the darkened woods beyond the fortress. The wind still whispered through the trees, a soft reminder of the chaos unfolding beyond the safety of their walls. The pack was ready, but Olivia couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off. The whispers had grown louder in her mind, and the burden of her bloodline weighed heavily on her shoulders.Ralph joined her, his presence a steadying force, his quiet strength grounding her as always. He had been by her side through every trial, every battle, and she knew he would stand with her through this one as well.“Are you sure about this?” he asked, his voice low but filled with concern. “We don’t have to go through with it if you’re not ready.”Olivia turned to face him, the determination in her eyes sharper than ever. “I don’t have a choice, Ralph. We’ve been preparing for
Understood! Here's the revised chapter:The storm raged outside the safety of the pack’s fortress, its winds howling like the voices of the dead, echoing through the dense forest that surrounded their stronghold. The trees bent under the weight of the tempest, the sky crackling with the fury of nature itself. Within the stone walls of the war room, the air was thick with tension. Olivia stood in the center of the room, her mind a storm of its own as she stared at the map sprawled out before her.Each red mark, each pin driven into the paper, represented another point of danger. Amelia’s army was moving faster than anyone had anticipated, and Olivia could feel the weight of the prophecy pressing on her chest. The future she had once hoped would be different now seemed inevitable. Her bloodline, her power, her destiny—they were all leading to this moment.Her thoughts were interrupted by Ralph’s voice, calm yet filled with urgency.“Olivia,” he said, his tone low and serious, “We need a
The weight of leadership pressed heavily on Olivia’s shoulders as she stood before the Crestmoon pack, her heart pounding in her chest. The entire pack had gathered in the clearing, their faces illuminated by the flickering torches planted in the ground. The air was thick with tension, uncertainty crackling like a brewing storm.Ralph stood beside her, his presence grounding, his golden eyes scanning the crowd with quiet intensity. To her left, Jace and Elias remained close, their expressions serious. Maya and Oliver lingered near the front, both visibly weary but determined.This was it. This was the moment that would decide everything.Olivia took a deep breath and stepped forward. “I know there have been whispers,” she said, her voice steady despite the turmoil inside her. “I know some of you have doubts—about the magic I carry, about the darkness that tried to consume Oliver, about the war that’s coming.”Murmurs rippled through the crowd, confirming her words. Olivia caught sight
