She wept, holding her chest that felt so heavy, the silence and the darkness engulfing her and allowing her to pour out her emotions that felt so whelming. She felt a gentle tap on her shoulder and turned to see him.It felt strange against his chest, the sinking and yet warmth; the anger that surged through him was something he couldn't deny or shake off; he wanted to rip everyone that had caused her this much pain apart. Why? He couldn't give himself the answer. Not because he feels any way towards her, not because she's any special to him.' No one dares make her cry, no one but me,' his fist clenched tightly before the uncomfortable warmth in his heart hit again. He wants to make the tears stop, he wants her to pull her closer in his arms and say,' Do you want me to rip them all apart for you?' but it became the question he only asked in his mind when he walked slowly to her side, with his softened eyes, he tapped on her shoulder and said," My leg has healed, let's get out of h
" Someone is trying to kidnap me?!," she asked in shock and disbelief, " hey, that's not possible,"" You saw the dead body when you woke up right? That's exactly who was taking you away."Speechless for some seconds as different thoughts ran through her mind, " This isn't Naya's doing, is it?" she asked mumbling to herself," What did you say?"" Just wondering who would want to kidnap me," she said avoiding his gaze," That could be your mate?"" I don't have a mate," she snapped," Oh!," he smirked briefly, " or is it your father?"" They have no reason to come for me; if they do, it's to kill me," she said with a hint of sadness laced in her voice." That's not going to happen, they can only plan and plot, but they would never get to you."Her heart skipped so hard as she turned to him, "How? If they plan and plot and execute, I'll be dead next,"" Never, not when you're mine. No one touches what belongs to me."Skipping so hard against her chest, she felt her heart pounding, not
Their rushing steps echoed through the corridor before the pack warriors appeared before Magnus panting heavily." How's it?"" He's nowhere; we've searched everywhere."Magnus furrowed his brow, it was noon already, and there was still no trace of Larsen anywhere; his cell phone was found on the floor in the forest. Magnus believed he hadn't gone missing, neither was he worried that something bad had happened to him, but yet his mind was unsettled, filled with curiosity and concerns." Where is he? This is so unlike him," he whispered.Another guard rushed inside the sitting room just then and bowed slightly before him." Sir Magnus," he called," How's it?"" Mathew, the guest, died last night due to the deep cut from the silver knife and excess bleeding,"" Fuck!," Magnus cursed but he was immediately not worried, " and the slave that did it, she needs to die immediately before we spread the news of his death,"" I'll do the killing myself," the voice of Elia halted their speeches
" What do you mean by they'll come to us by themselves?" Magnus asked as he followed Larsen to his room, closing the door behind him as he entered.Without wasting any more seconds, Larsen began to unbutton his shirt." Just sit and wait,"" I trust whatever decision you make, but we'd have to announce his death to his family today, if not the slave as the killer; I should at least know every detail of these coming enemies, and how are you so sure they're coming?"Larsen took off his shirt and his belt before turning to him." They have some unfinished business and I'm certain they'd come for it,"" What business?"" The attack which was a distraction present two reasons, one which is to create a misunderstanding by making us collide with the Howl clan, that's their way of taking two enemies out of the line,"" Dumb pack, and the other reason?"" They wanted someone from my pack, they attempted to kidnap the slave,"" The same slave you arrived with?"" Yes."Magnus scoffed in confusi
Like wildfire, the news of the Obsidian Wraith clan being under attack spread throughout the whole clan in no time, immediately becoming the news and talk of the city. It became a noisy day, every clan, and every influential individual was in groups, on calls about the sudden attack on the Wraith pack, and their perception of it, all were convinced that the attacker was the Bloodfang Howl clan, some hesitating to take the declaration as a war and choose a side for their benefit while some decided to lay low and observe more.Alpha Larsen and Alpha Harper are two predators and devils; what the two are thinking can never be predictable, and reacting or choosing a side so early could put a target on them.Amidst the noisy day is a family in bereavement, their wails echoed within their walls as the corpse of their son was presented to them. The cause of death is said to be from the attack. Mathew's mother wailed and screamed as they took the dead body inside the house; her anguish was unp
Noely hid behind a tree, watching the slaves who were some feet away. She clenched and unclenched her fist, waiting for the perfect time to approach the lady who seemed to be the boss. The slaves from the other division were of rank; the slaves who got to serve the Alphas up close had a higher rank than the other slaves from the other division. Among the slaves that serve the Alphas, one of them, a pretty she-wolf with black wavy hair, is the boss of the division as she is Elia's favorite. Noely watched as other slaves massaged her body, trying to please her so that she could help them rank up and also get to serve in the mansion. Unable to wait any longer, she approached them. " Hi," she greeted and all eyes turned to her. Pweety, the boss getting her body massaged looked up at her with a questioning stare. Looking at her closer, Noely understood why she was Elia's favorite slave; she was indeed a beauty with blue ocean eyes; her jaw and pointed nose made her beauty exception
By the time Elora dragged the not fully-dried bed back inside her cell, it was dusk already. Her body shivered from the cold cloth she wore; it wasn't fully dried before the sunset. Her body aches from exhaustion, and her eyes inches with cravings for deep sleep.She looked at the bed exhaustedly and swallowed down some saliva, which made her realize how dry her throat was." You can't sleep here tonight, the bed is wet and your body is cold,"" Where else would I sleep?" she asked yawning," You're already shivering, sleeping here would only give you a fiver," Naya said worriedly, " Someone would think you care with the way you're talking,"" That's because I do,"" I hope you don't expect me to trust that."Lack of trust is what Naya has gotten accustomed to since she got trapped in her body, and ever since she got to know the reason behind her hostility, her lack of trust was justifiable. Getting Elora to trust her is the hardest task she's ever had as it seems impossible." You'r
Larsen gasped when he was bumped into; frown slowly crept onto his handsome face looking at his stained shirt, but when he looked at who bumped into him, his eyes softened. His lips parted as his eyes bored into hers before looking at her face as a whole, and he bit his inner lips hard to restrain himself from bursting into laughter. The urge to burst into laughter was something he hadn't had for years, but looking at her funny and weird face and her whole mouth covered in sauce.He looked at her hands and exhaled in disbelief, they were both full of meat." What are you doing? Elora."This was the first time he had ever called her by her name, and it made her heart skip so hard.'OMG! I've been caught, will this put Isha in trouble? Oh no! I'd just lie that I stole it,' she said in her mind dropping her gaze nervously." Um. I ..I..," she stuttered but he cut her short by suddenly pulling her out of the way and out of the guard's sight, shielding her petite body with his.He remaine
After the perilous yell, the kicks and punches stop. " Alpha," Amie called; her heart skipped as she hadn't planned for Larsen to catch her in the act, but her anger and hatred for Elora wouldn't make her stop." Are you out of your goddamn mind?!" he thundered and pushed her roughly away from Elora, surprising everyone present.If not for the assistance of the attendants who quickly caught her, she would've fallen hard on her butt.Larsen's wolf growled in rage as it looked at Amie, feeling so much anger that it wanted to tear her apart and everyone who had laid hands on her." Hey! Hey," Elora heard his baritone voice call as his hand pulled her up gently from the floor.Larsen's blood boils looking at her body full of bruises; her hair was so messy and covering her face. He worriedly brushed the hair off her face with his fingers, and his heart sank, looking at her face full of cuts and bruises.He gritted his teeth and glared at Amie." What the fuck do you think you were doing?"
Austin watched her stride towards him in the sitting room, dressed in a blue short and black singlet with her hair packed in a ponytail shape, looking all normal with no hint of madness, which amazed Austin even more.' damn, clothes indeed hide lots of things, my moony,' he exclaimed in his mind.Elora nodded slightly as she stood in front of him not knowing what to say or do." Do you need anything?" he asked," No, no," she waved quickly.~ what do you mean by no? We're starving ~ Naya shouted in her head." A moon goddess like you sure knows how to yell and shout and scream," she whispered to herself knowing Naya would hear her." What do you say?" Austin asked not hearing a thing except 'moon goddess '" No, nothing,"" Would you like anything? To eat?"" No, I'm fine currently,"~ are you kidding me? We're not in a fasting period ~" You sure?" " Okay," Elora gave in, seems like both Naya and Austin were determined to frustrate her soul till she took in something, " please some
No matter which side she turns to, the sun that scorches through the room seems determined to heat her awake. Elora groaned as she grabbed the duvet and dragged it above her head but she wasn't feeling comfortable enough to sleep back that way." fine..you succeed," she groaned against the pillow and pushed the duvet down." Ahh! Holy moon shit!" she yelled as she jumped up in fright when she opened her eyes to see ..Austin?" What are you doing here?" she yelled at him as she quickly wrapped herself up with the duvet, eyeing him from head to toe with her face contoured with deep frown.Her startled chest was pounding so hard against her ear." Good morning Miss Elora, pardon my manners, I didn't mean to startle you,"" May I know your reason for being here?"" My lord, the Alpha, instructed me to watch over you,"" Watch over me or spy on me?" her frown deepened.' did he think I was going to try to escape after what he did last night? He shouldn't worry, I've already made up my mind
" I'm not going to scream, but what the heck!" she said, almost whispering, some of the words nearly inaudible.Magnus heaved a sigh of relief still laying on her. He has never been this relief in his entire life." What are you doing? I know you want me to accept you but do you think following me around and trying to do what? Will make me accept you?."Magnus furrowed his brow in confusion, wondering why she was so scared and nervous. Vicky's heart was pounding so hard against her chest and with her mate laying on top of her, she could feel heat building from her fluttering stomach.His masculine scent was too close this time, driving her head in an unknown direction; her palm got sweaty, and the temptation to touch his muscles feeling against her shoulder.She swallowed hard while she tried to avoid gazing into his eyes so as not to lose her resolve. Her craving for that one person to love and care for her, her desire for a companion and a partner, gradually getting rekindled.No Vi
This is very strange, where are all the guards? She looked around and sniffed the air, but there was indeed no scent of a guard hiding anywhere close.Something is definitely wrong.She quickly went after the one she was trailing, she jumped back when her quick steps nearly bumped into his presence. She hid behind a pillar, waiting for a second to take a peep.|Magnus|Magnus couldn't close his parted lips when he saw the hidden ground behind a door. He thought he was just going into a room that only Elia had access to, but after waiting for some seconds, he held and twisted the knob to see it wasn't locked.He slowly opened the door hoping the door doesn't make any creaking sound as he stepped inside. His jaw dropped at the sight before his eyes, behind the door is a stairs leading downward to an underground.A secret underground? For what?He slowly walked down the stairs, clinging to the wall so he wouldn't be easily sighted and unaware of the figure hiding behind him as well.Fin
" what do you mean?"" I don't trust you,"" But you trust him?"" No, but at least he has a motive; he is ready to make amendments for his mistakes and wouldn't hurt me."Hurt me. The word slaps him hard across the face." You don't need him,"" He's going to get justice for Scarlett, everyone is going to know the truth,"" It isn't justice you want, it's revenge,"" That'll only put me in more trouble and danger, I might get killed if I get caught killing anyone again."" Do whatever you want; kill whoever you want; I'll be your alibi."The rigidness and unwavering tone and stare, the look in his eyes when he said that wrapped her soul in the feeling of protection and her heart melt, but with that, her head felt the battle of confusion within her mind.He got up from the bed when she said no more and covered her legs with the duvet." Get some sleep, it's late," he said and made to leave," Stop confusing me?," she said running her fingers through her blonde hair and her face covere
" my beautiful pup, hmm muah! You're so adorable," her giggling voice said as she rubbed her face against his chubby, cute face.Larsen chuckled, his face full of smiles, " I miss you so much mum," his excited voice telling her exactly how much he had missed her. He hugged her, wrapping his little arms around her.Larsen clenched his fist hard as the next memory he had of her was her hand dripping with blood, and the look on her face. The memories he couldn't shove away, the memories that couldn't be buried but just live with it. The feelings he felt that day were still raw and fresh; the anger, the disappointment, the fear, they flashed across his eyes, brewing another wave of anger in him as he angrily gulped down the seventh bottle of alcohol and yet didn't feel any ounce of tipsiness.His heart feels so heavy that anger radiates through his veins as he keeps remembering his mother's bloody hands and Damien's hand holding Elora's. If he sees Damien right this moment, he wouldn't he
Without giving room for a response, he turned around and grabbed Elora's wrist before dragging her along with him back to their suite while Damien stood still, with his blood boiling and he gave out a loud growl and grunt of anger and frustration. His breath rose and fell erratically.Amie watched from the corner, smirking in satisfaction, knowing she'd gotten into trouble; her wince confirmed it as Larsen dragged her with him. The fear on Elora's face gave Amie so much joy that her eyes flickered with so much relief and lifted her mood that made her want to hum a song.Elora winced in pain from Larsen's tight grip, but he was so furious that it sent shivers down her spine; his fury terrified her that she couldn't tell him that his grip hurt. How dare her! How dare her!!His mind was in an unrelenting turmoil. It was so unbelievable when Amie showed him the picture she took, but when she took him to the spot and had to see for himself, a fire was ignited in him.He clenched his fist
Elora was surprised as her eyes fell on him." Alpha Damien?" the call was almost a whisper," Elora," he called with a smile nudging in. He was pissed about how today went; the smiley look on Elora's face after the meeting ended taunted him that he made plans to have dinner with the Alpha, hoping to see her, but his anger even surged higher when his request was turned down.He was standing by the glassy wall, gazing out of the window and sipping his red wine after giving feedback on their plan to Elia when he saw her taking a walk.This is heaven presenting to him a chance and he wouldn't for anything let it pass." Taking a walk?" he asked, looking as she folded her arms beneath her breast.Without responding, she turned to walk away but he immediately blocked the way with his body." Are you avoiding me?"" Isn't that obvious?."His heart skipped and ached at the same time. She glared up at him.When would she ever look at him the same way he looks at her." For how long would you
