Lun blinked and felt his eyes water from the smoke in the shop. Needless to say, she had arrived in half an hour and running! No cab had stopped to take her. She felt her shirt clinging to her body with sweat, the inside of her thighs itched from rubbing.She ran a hand through the locks that had come loose from her ponytail and joined the large crowd in the club. The music was loud, the dance floor full of people dancing and the bar covered with drinkers. There were also tables that made a half circle around the dance floor. The chairs were joined together and were black in color, while the tables were dark wood in color.As she walked around dodging people or hands that were placed on her waist to urge her to dance, Lun watched the men's faces intently, but none of them rang a bell.At the far end of the venue, Lun spotted the bathrooms. She went with large strides and with her heart in a fist. Every time a hand touched her, she was startled and looked at the one who caused the touc
She glanced sideways at him and hit his neck, where Adam's apple was faintly visible. She liked it. He had a thin layer of beard starting to grow out of him, obscuring his appearance. Lun's gaze slowly, meeting lips that moved as he spoke to someone.She continued her scrutiny. Then came his nose, straight and strong. That way, just by looking at half of his face she could tell how beautiful he was. She moved up to his eyes. On Gideon as he spoke. She could make out their color. They were dark as night but had a layer of light blue around the iris that made him look.... Stunning.What's more, she had run out of breath.At that moment he looked at her, catching her. There was a connection between the two of them that everyone could notice, causing silence to reign among the group for a few seconds. A cold and cutting silence. A light blue-eyed blond to her right placed a hand on her trembling thigh."Don't tell me you like Eric" Lun startled. "Honey, my name is Ben and I'm at your beck
We have to go, another time.A large, strong hand was placed on Lun's shoulder, making a gentle pressure that carried a clear message: sit back down. He looked at Eric, who was the one making that gentle contact. Alissa was hopelessly struggling against Gideon's hands, who was forcing her to stay in place.At that moment a waitress approached. She had long red hair that contrasted with her green eyes. She looked at all the men with a big smile, but when she stopped at Ben, her smile deepened."Can I get you something?"Eric looked at Lun sharply. He had one of his hands on his knee, pressing down. She closed her eyes and bit her lip hard, fighting that part of herself that was forcing her to scream at the moment. Where his hand was, for some strange reason she felt warmth, a soothing warmth slowly creeping up her leg. She wanted to shake it off."Beer," replied Ethan, folding his arms."And me" replied Gideon. "What do you want, Alissa?""Another would be nice" he whispered looking at
Lun Marshall stepped out of the building where he worked and looked up at the cloudy New York sky with a grimace. It was going to rain in less than twenty minutes, so she hurried to find her car, which was parked two blocks away.He had found it impossible to park in the company's parking lots that day. All the workers at Tyler & Co seemed to have predicted that it would be an excellent day, as Tyler, the factory owner, had arranged for another parking lot to be opened for the use of the rest of the workers. This one was normally used for storage of goods and their respective trucks, but it was Friday, and trucks only ran Monday through Thursday.The company's beautiful new clock read ten minutes after her arrival. And there stood Tyler, waiting for her, looking immaculate and aggressive. She had listened to his terse words before he nodded softly and left for his office. If that hadn't already been the beginning of a long day enduring the rude looks from her boss, her sister Paulina
Everyone started running and screaming, hiding in their cars and turning on their headlights. Lun watched in terror as the guards ripped off their clothes and began to grow to over six feet tall. Their bodies were covered with long dark hair all over, their faces deformed into a new elongated wolf-like shape, their eyes grew smaller and their mouths tripled in size.They began to howl and growl before getting down on all fours and attacking cars, lashing out with their large claws and leaving marks wherever they placed them. Their eyes were black as night, on their hands were huge sharp nails that lifted the doors and hoods of vehicles, pulling out the drivers and tearing them apart and then engulfing them.Lun felt bile rise in his throat.She turned and saw that the security guard who had been holding both women by the arm was smiling. In his eyes there was a yellow gleam and, on his lips, a wolfish grin.At that moment her body was run through with huge spasms, her clothes tattered
Was she crazy? Had she had an accident and hit her head? That had to be it. It was impossible for werewolves and people who ran at inhuman speed to exist. Lun put his hands to his ears, closed his eyes and counted to five. After that, nothing like that would have happened.One..."Out!" a man shouted. "All clear!"Two..."Come on, these men have helped us." Someone tugged at her arm but she responded. Three..."Have you killed everyone?" asked a male voice."Some have escaped, no doubt they have taken advantage of the rain so they could feed and cut all the electrical circuits. We found the real parking lot guards with their throats slit, in the adjoining warehouse."Four...They pushed her arm again, pulling her out from under the car. She still didn't open her eyes, she just wanted it all to go away. Someone lifted her up in his arms. She clung tightly to the collar of the man's jacket, who lifted her up without caring that she didn't know who he was, while keeping her eyes closed
Both Eric and the others were dedicated to leaving the crime scene so that it was a heist and not werewolves desperately trying to get their food. Seeing the carnage in the parking lot, they had to take many bodies away due to their poor condition.He felt bad that he hadn't gotten there sooner. Gideon had warned them two weeks earlier that the werewolves were starving after the Valkyries released them. Apparently, those women resented the werewolves for some reason unknown to them, and were capturing them. They would drop them off near some city in the United States and then wipe their hands clean.Did these women not realize what they were doing? They were trying to keep their identity from the humans, not sow chaos. Of course, it was no secret that vampires had been at odds with werewolves since the beginning of both creations. The two had always fought for dominance, though Eric had suspected about something else. Meanwhile, the Valkyries were busy getting in the way of both of th
Lun pulled his head out of the water and caught his breath. Her lungs were burning from being underwater for so long. It had been five months since the thieves had raided the parking lot and made a killing as well.Everyone, including herself, considered it a miracle that she was still alive.When Paulina had found out, she had hugged her tightly as she cried, complaining that they had almost taken away the only family member she had left.Since the accident, Lun couldn't help but dream every night of faces, grunts and blood. She couldn't make out much, but for some strange reason she saw in her dream's hair-covered monsters that devoured every human they caught. She dreamed of the face of a beautiful woman who had helped her get out of the clutches of one of them alive.Was it true? I didn't remember seeing any woman when the ambulances arrived. Everything was blurry, he could not define anything clearly. And trying to do so caused her intense pain.And what disturbed her most were t
