로그인Annalyse Mitchell is one of a kind. Literally. As the only remaining Astridian and daughter of an Alpha, she has abilities. Abilities that have remained hidden, even from her. As she approaches her 18th birthday, they are starting to reveal themselves, both to her and to those hunting her. She has no idea that she's being hunted, even in her dreams. Lycan Prince Dylan Andrew 'Chase' Wyndmoor meets Annalyse and is instantly drawn to her. There's something about this fiercely independent woman that he craves and that his Lycan has an overwhelming urge to protect. As attacks occur on their borders, can he solve the puzzle and help save her before it's too late?
더 보기Wika mengumpati dirinya melihat dari kejauhan sosok dosennya yang mengajar di kampus. Dosen yang sekarang merangkap menjadi tetangga baru di komplek lingkungan perumahan ini.
Merasa bingung, haruskah Wika menegur saja dosennya atau berpura-pura tidak melihat dengan cara menundukkan kepalanya?
Aishh! Wika mengomel ngedumel tak jelas. Lagian, ngapain juga tuh si dosen pakai acara ikut-ikutan joging segala.
Tak mau ambil pusing karena si dosen yang hampir dekat sedikit lagi akan lewat melintasinya. Wika pun membungkus kepala sampai batas hidungnya dengan penutup kepala hoddie yang di pakainya.
Hal ini tentu sangat membantu Wika, dengan begini ketika sang dosen melewatinya di jamin tidak akan mengenali sosoknya.
Wika bersorak gembira karena tak harus larut dalam situasi berbasa-basi menegur sang dosen. Di kampusnya saja Wika sangat membenci ketika ia mengajar dan Wika lebih sering memilih bolos, padahal Wika sangat suka pelajaran bahasa Inggris.
Selesai joging, Wika masuk ke dalam rumahnya dengan tubuh yang bersimbah penuh keringat, Wika berjalan ke arah lemari pendingin, membukanya dan mengambil satu botol air mineral dingin. Meneguk isi di dalam botol tersebut sampai tandas.
Wika membuka jaketnya karena merasakan panas dan membiarkan tubuhnya yang hanya mengenakan tank top. Inilah kebiasaan Wika yang memang suka saat berolahraga mengunakan jaket dan celana training panjang, hal itu Wika lakukan karena menurutnya membakar lemak dalam tubuhnya lebih banyak, karena Wika tidak suka tubuhnya menjadi gendut.
Wika berjalan ke arah dapur dimana sang mama tercintanya pasti sedang berkutat disana. Dan dugaan Wika benar, mamanya tengah membuat sarapan untuk mereka.
Beruntung hari ini hari libur, jadi Wika bisa sedikit bersantai dan menenangkan otaknya yang stress menghadapi segala urusan kuliahnya. Menghampiri sang mama dan memberikan kecupan manis di pipi mamanya.
"Pagi sayang, baru pulang joging?" tanya Bu Asti menyapa putrinya yang sejak pagi sudah tak terlihat keberadaannya di rumah.
Wika mengangguk, lalu kemudian matanya berbinar bahagia saat melihat sebuah kue cokelat kesukaannya.
"Kue cokelat!" pekik Wika bahagia dan hendak mengambil kue cokelat itu untuk ia makan.
Gerakan tangan Bu Asti menghentikan pergerakan Wika, menatap ibunya dengan pandangan bingung.
"Kenapa, Ma?" tanya Wika.
"Nanti saja makannya, sekarang bantu mama dulu ya?!"
"Boleh, bantu apa ma?" tanya Wika antusias.
"Tolong kamu antarkan separuh dari kue cokelat ini ke rumah tetangga baru yang ada di sebelah rumah kita." kata Bu Asti yang langsung memotong kue itu menjadi bagian kecil-kecil.
Jederrrr.
Bagaikan kesambar petir tubuh Wika menegang kaku jegang-jegang dengan wajah gosong, sayangnya wajah Wika tidak gosong melainkan merah padam kala ia harus menuruti permintaan mamanya.
"Ini!" Bu Asti menyodorkan piring yang berisi potongan kecil-kecil kue bolu cokelat tersebut untuk di berikan ke tetangga baru.
Wika menatap bergantian ke arah kue cokelat itu dan mamanya. Bu Asti mengerutkan dahinya bingung saat melihat ekspresi raut wajah anaknya.
******
Setelah bersusah payah menolak permintaan sang mama, akhirnya Wika kalah dan tetap harus mengantarkan kue cokelat itu untuk dosennya.
Menghembuskan nafas kesal berulang kali sambil menatap pintu di depannya kini sebelum mengetuknya. Wika dilanda rasa bimbang, ketuk, tidak? Ketuk, kabur saja?
Tidak, tidak. Perintah ibunya harus tersampaikan. Jika tidak maka akan menjadi bencana besar, bagaimanapun ini amanah, amanah yang membawa bencana.
Baru saja tangan Wika terangkat ingin mengetuk pintu tersebut, namun pintu sudah terbuka lebih dulu dan membuat tangan Wika menggapai udara.
Mangerjapkan mata berulang kali sebagai reaksi spontan yang Wika lakukan, tangannya yang terangkat dengan terkepal pun ia ubah dengan gerakan lima jari yang melambai. Nyengir cengengesan menyapa sang dosen dengan sangat kikuk.
"Hehe, selamat pagi pak Pras." sapa Wika membungkukkan badannya sedikit sebagai sikap hormatnya.
Pras memperhatikan wanita di depannya saat ini dengan sorot mata menyipit. "Pagi, siapa ya?"
Dia tidak mengenaliku? Atau pura-pura lupa? batin Wika bingung.
Tapi, baguslah jika dia tidak mengingatku. Aku kan memang selalu bolos tiap ada pelajarannya, hihi. sambung batin Wika bersorak gembira.
"T-tetangga," Wika menunjuk ke arah sebelah dimana rumahnya berada.
Pras mengikuti arah jari Wika kemudian mengangguk mengerti. "ada apa?" tanya Pras tak suka berbasa-basi.
"Ah iya, ini!" Wika menyodorkan Piring berisi kue bolu cokelat. "Dari mama saya untuk bapak." kata Wika tersenyum.
"Untuk saya?" ulang Pras menunjuk dirinya sendiri memastikan jika wanita ini tidak salah mengasih.
Tidak pak, kue ini tadinya mau saya buang ke tong sampah. batin Wika ingin menyuarakan kata-kata itu.
"Iya pak, kue ini untuk bapak. Mama saya membuatnya dengan penuh kasih sayang dan ketulusan loh pak, mohon di terima ya." ucap Wika memasang wajah sendu yang menggemaskan.
Pras tersenyum senang dan segera meraih piring tersebut. "Terima kasih ya."
Wika mengangguk dengan cepat, "sama-sama pak, kalau begitu saya permisi." kata Wika cepat dan terburu-buru hendak pergi dari situ
"Tunggu!" suara Pras berseru menyuruh Wika untuk berhenti.
Gerakan langkah kaki Wika berhenti. Mampus! Apalagi nih?
Wika kembali berbalik badan menghadap Pras dengan senyuman manis. "Iya pak, kenapa ya?"
Dahi Pras berkerut dalam seakan-akan tengah mengingat-ingat sesuatu. "apakah sebelumnya kita pernah bertemu dan saling mengenal?" tanya Pras yang seperti mengenali Wika.
"Dan, kamu juga tahu nama saya."
Wika sekarang tahu jika pak Pras memang tak mengenalinya. Haruskah Wika merasa sedih atau gembira?
AnnalyseI sat there, ears straining to hear what was being said as I tried to reach out to Bella.‘Bells? Are you there? Please answer me.’, I pleaded.Still nothing. As I sat, I began to panic. What would happen if whatever they gave me killed her?I also felt sick again. And hot, like I was going into another heat. But it was way too soon for that.The talking stopped as the footsteps stalled outside the room we were in.I felt nervous and a little scared, especially without my wolf as the door opened slowly and a familiar scent hit my nose.“Well, look who we have here. A visitor for you, Annalyse.”I looked up, shocked to see what my brain already knew.Out of the shadows and into the light walked Cristabell. My other best friend.She looked at me, disgust written all over her face, jealousy blazing in her eyes.“Crista?! What are you doing here?”, I asked, genuinely confused at this point, hoping against hope that she wasn’t being held here too.“What am I doing here?”, she scof
AnnalyseI felt so groggy and I was worried. Really worried. I haven’t been able to talk to Bella since being taken.I slowly opened my eyes and looked around. I felt like I was underground, the walls around me made of stone that had long ago begun to crumble and mold from lack of upkeep.I was in a cell, lying on a dirty mattress that had been thrown down here. No sheet or blanket and despite the time of year, it was pretty cold down here. A single candle was the only light flickering through the darkened space outside of the cell.I sat up against the wall as I tried to reach out to Bella again.‘Bells? What happened? Where did you go? I’m worried.’Nothing. Not even a glimmer that she was there, though I could feel something stirring inside of me.I couldn’t seem to link Chase either.I wanted my mate. Surely he’d be coming for me.The last thing that I remembered was leaving him to go to the bathroom in the packhouse and hearing Asher crying for help.Then everything goes black.“
AnnalyseI came to with a terrible headache and filled with panic. Bella had gone quiet, almost as if she weren’t there at all.‘Bells?’, I reached out to her.Nothing. Not even a stirring.I tried to communicate through linking.Nothing there either.What had whoever grabbed me given me?I tried to clear the fog from my brain when I registered footsteps coming.I closed my eyes, still trying to gather my thoughts, but I didn’t want to hint to whoever was coming that I was awake.“Dammit, Zane! How much did you put on that cloth?”, I heard a deep voice demand. “Enough to knock her out and keep her from fighting me long enough to get her here.”, I heard another answer.“She should be awake by now. I need her alive.”, I heard the first say.“Everyone processes the mixture differently. It’s possible that her wolf is still working it out of her system.”, the second man answered.“That better be all that it is. We’re working on a minimal time frame at best here. He’s going to find her. Hi
ChaseI was beyond pissed. I had heard every word that that vile girl spoke to Lyse. Havoc was itching to get out and do some damage.As I walked through the trees, watching as the girl was about to hit my mate, fury surged through me. Ryker stepped in just in time, willing to allow it to go only so far.I knew that Lyse could handle herself, but it was my job to keep her safe.She was surprisingly calm and collected and handled the situation with as much poise and grace as one could while being called the King’s whore.I knew what she was doing when she said she’d have to think about a proper punishment. Normally, I would’ve just given one myself, but as much as I wanted to, it was her decision to make.The waiting alone would probably drive the girl a little nuts as it was, I thought with a small smile.Lyse confirmed it a moment later.“Waiting should be punishment enough.”, she said.I gave her a small chuckle. “I thought that’s what you were doing.”, I said.“Yeah, well. It proba
ChaseI was still stunned at seeing my mate somehow conjure fire from her hands. I knew she had Astrydian abilities, but that one was rare from what I had been told.We would talk about it all later, especially the trancelike state that I found her in. For now, there was other business to attend to.As
ChaseIt took a couple of hours to talk Merrick down from wanting to murder Jace and get the main body of our plan together, and now we were headed back to the Mitchell’s house to speak to Carolina and Annalyse. This was going to impact everyone, mostly Merrick’s mate, and possibly mine.Ryker had upp
AnnalyseAfter a night plagued with dreams and worry, morning seemed to come sooner than I would have liked. I had so many questions and I was still in shock at all that I had learned yesterday.We also had Jace’s ceremony tonight and I had to tell Chase about the history there. I was truly concerned
ChaseI walked out of Lyse’s room, relatively calm given the anger I had writhing inside of me at her revelations of the wish-he-was-gonna-be Alpha, Jace.I made a quick call to my father to let him know my intentions and was aware of the potential fall out. Not that I needed his approval now that I w
