Jazmine took a deep breath before knocking on the room's door where Liam would be sleeping during the vacation.
The door swung open, and Liam stood there without a shirt on, and sweats rolled down his chest. Jazmine’s mind went into a wild run looking at the hot God standing in front of her. He had a dragon tattoo on the left side of his chest that continued to his shoulder.
“Do you want to order in or go out to eat? Anita told me to ask you,” Jazmine said.
“Ah, one second.”
Liam turned around, showing his tattooed back at her. Jazmine fanned herself as she realized she was showing too much attention to Liam’s body. He grabbed his phone from the bed and walked back to her.
“I made a r
Jazmine watched Liam from time to time after dinner last night. He kept checking his phone as if he was expecting a call or text from someone. He was awfully distracted. Jazmine didn’t know what could be the reasons for his distraction. It was too much to think about. Could it be about the waitress that Liam talked to?But if she thought about it carefully, Liam mentioned he kissed her to gain her attention. Why would he pay attention to another woman after confessing things like that? He noticed everything about her at Anita’s eighteenth birthday party. All those five years, she thought Liam didn’t even look at her.Jazmine gasped when she remembered Liam had kissed her twice. Her cheeks felt hot out of a sudden as if she was burning alive.“If you continue to stare at him like that, you mig
“They were all werewolves, Zidane,” Liam hissed. “How did you not notice it?”“I noticed it.” Zidane looked at him dead in the eyes. “I noticed it because one of the rogues was the one I banished from my pack after he killed his own mate.”“So, June Lab was experimenting on werewolves with the help of the police who rounded them up in prisons?”“We have no proof to prove the government was involved in this. It might be someone who has power and money. Look at the joint investigation the police have right now. Only a tiny fraction of their force joined it. They’re keeping it from the public because it’s not a covert operation.”“It's an illegal operation. The police officers were bou
She could only blink her eyes and stared into his green eyes. Now that she saw him this close, she finally realized the beauty of his eye color. It reminded her of the evergreen forest. Liam’s eyes were so rich in green, and she couldn’t stop looking into them. Anita’s eyes weren’t as green as his.Jazmine reached to touch the scruff on his jaw. This was why she knew that she had a thing for an older man. Liam had exceeded everything she could expect from a man. His chiseled jaw sculptured perfectly, and with the scruff, he looked hotter. She traced her fingers on his face as if she wanted to map out the structure of his face. Her eyes briefly looked at his lips, the most tempting feature of his. Jazmine wondered what it felt like to have his lips against hers again.Looked at her, a moment ago, she was about to murder him for pulling he
“We’ve got everyone,” Zidane said, walking into his pack mansion.A few hours ago, a group of twenty vampires attacked Zidane’s patrolling team and injured three pack members. It took them an hour to round up all the vampires and bring them to custody. Zidane’s beta, David, went to the office to prepare for the paperwork and interrogation. Now, everything was settled. Liam had no reason to stay longer. He did his best to assist Zidane to strengthen the perimeter for a few hours.He felt his phone buzz in his jean’s pocket and pulled it out to see it was Anita’s number. Liam answered the call and pressed the speaker against his ear.“Liam, we have a problem. Jazmine is in heat,” Anita said from the other end of the call.
“I’m sorry. We can’t be together.”Those words left his mouth. She wanted to scream at him. He turned his back on her and walked away. She stayed rooted on the ground, watching another woman walk by his side. They were smiling and laughing. It could have been her walking by his side. But he didn’t want her anymore.Jazmine gasped as she woke up from her sleep. Something was pressed against her back, and she couldn’t see anything. Everything was dark.“Don’t move too much. You’d fall,” a deep voice said from behind.She could feel the person’s breath against her neck. Jazmine’s heart thumped against her chest when she felt the familiar feeling once again. A pair of strong arms wrapped around her
Liam had just finished showering when his phone vibrated on the bed. He checked the text that came in. Brandon had informed him that he already returned and was on his way to meet up. After putting on his clothes, Liam grabbed his car key and left a note on the table in the living room before meeting with Brandon. It was an hour of drive to the meeting place.The moment Liam saw Brandon getting in his car, he noticed the gamma’s face looked tired and dark circles were evident around his eyes.“You didn’t have a good sleep?” Liam asked.Brandon took a deep breath and handed out the report he had finished while riding on the airplane. Liam looked through the file, and a long sigh left his mouth. It seemed Jazmine was entangled deeply into her uncle’s past.
Liam drove his truck with Brandon in the passenger’s seat when suddenly the Beta felt uneasy with the black van parked at the driveway. There was something unusual about the black van, although he knew they were there for Jazmine. Unable to shrug off his uneasiness, he stopped his car next to the van. Brandon and Liam got out of the car and checked around the van. If it was true that the van was the home for two bodyguards tasked to protect Jazmine, they should have made some noise from the inside. It didn’t matter what sort of noise. It could be the noise of typing on the keyboard or heartbeat, but the Beta and Gamma didn’t hear anything. The van was in dead silence. Brandon reached for the door and looked at him to tell him that the door wasn’t locked. He was about to slide the door open when Liam pushed the Gamma to the side before the van exploded. Brandon and Liam were thrown off and landed roughly against other cars in the vicinity.
Liam could only stare at Jay Bernard, whose eyes filled with rage. It was unfitting to find out the young boss was actually something else. He wanted to find out why Jay had been keeping an eye on Jazmine and what kind of species he was. But Liam had to withhold his questions as he ran towards the direction that Brandon took. He had to regroup with the gamma and eliminate those mercenaries that were hunting them down. He heard the sound of footsteps and gunshots. Liam picked up his pace, hoping it wasn’t too late to aid his comrade. He looked to his right and left and didn’t see Jay anywhere. Too many questions flooded Liam’s mind, but he hoped Jay wasn’t another villain. Liam eliminated the mercenaries one by one on his end, while Brandon took care from another end. Despite their injuries, the two werewolves held up to the end of the battle. When the final m
