Amelia had never expected to have such a tragic life. In the second year of her marriage, she was drugged to vegetable status. She could not move, speak, eat, or go to the bathroom on her own, but could hear and feel and see how her husband betrayed and humiliated her. In the big, fancy wedding room of her and her husband, Amelia was placed in a cold wheelchair with a thin blanket covering her legs. In front of her was an extravagant canopy bed which was picked up by her mother as the dowry. But now there lay another woman, laughing and tangling with her own husband, Ian.
View MoreNine’s POVUp to today, I still couldn’t fully comprehend why I stopped for that teenage girl on that day.It was one of the coldest winter nights in this strange country, chill, dark, and the iciness was just seeping under your skin.There was no wind that night, just snow, flake by flake, but in quite large sizes, falling off from heaven.I walked aimlessly in the thick snow on the street. The melted mud soiled my furs on my legs.There weren’t many street lights either, just cars and scarce passersby running past hurriedly. I heard loud music and laughing noises coming from those colorful stores on both sides of the street. It was still early in the night, but the street was so dark and quiet like it had been devoured by the demon.I walked haphazardly on the sidewalk, eyes fixed in the air, mind wandering restlessly.It was the 60th day I arrived in the city. As always, I found no one even slightly looking like my aim. It was quite disappointing, but I didn’t think much about it.
Amelia was waiting outside the village in the car. Up to today, they had been traveling around the country for 7 months. They paid a visit to Emily first, and then went to Fay and Gregson’s son and all the other wolves who were once part of the murder.They hunted down every wolf who was responsible and made them pay their debts.James’s house was their last stop. After today, they would head back to their home and start a new life.Amelia said “No” when he asked if she wanted to visit her parents with him. Darren knew the reason. James and Doris were just the most ignorant and stupid couple he had ever met. Harm would be the only thing they might have caused Amelia if there was a reunion.He wrapped his coat a little tighter because of the autumn’s cold wind, then quickened his steps to the outside of the village.The sky’s color was sullen yellow today. While he was still far from their car, suddenly he saw Doris standing beside it with Amelia. His heart clenched. He then ran toward
James was pretty upset about his retirement life.Nearly three years had passed since he lost his pack to the rogue he hated most, Darren. Though he had successfully persuaded himself to accept the fact and have a life with nothing a long time ago. Still, he was worried all the time about his adopted son, Ian. Three years ago, right after Darren took all his property from the Wolf Committee, Ian showed up at his front door later that day with a heavily wounded face. He plunged himself into James’s arms and cried. “The Rogue has put a wanted notice on me. He wants me to be dead!”James patted his back and sighed, knowing it was the ending of his and his pack’s glory. Still, he had this tiny expectation left in his heart that maybe someday, Ian could find a way to defeat Darren and regain everything. He was a smart kid, and had always been. And, he was the heir of the most powerful pack, Green Lake.At that point, James could hardly tell. Did he adopt Ian out of his condolences to hi
“Mom, Dad, Emily….”He drifted back to his childhood in that cold, suffocating lake water, reliving everything that was so treasurable and amiable for him….When he was sinking, the lost memories of his slowly grew back piece by piece. He remembered how his sister fell from the cliff on the exact same day, and how Roy caught him in the lake, then took him to a secret chamber underneath it. That’s how he survived.“Hope you can have a normal but happy life, kid.” Roy sighed and wept beside his bed, then did something to his wounded eye. He couldn’t remember.Next, another surge of hatred and fury overwhelmed him.Now he could see clearly how he and his sister saved that wounded rogue boy in the forest, but got betrayed and attacked by him.“Fuck you! Fuck! How dare you use the Alpha tone on me?!” The rogue boy cursed, riding on top of him, using that sharp rock in his hand, repeatedly beating his head. After crushing his left eye, the rogue stood up and started to kick his chest and s
Adam had no idea why he agreed to help Mia. Mia was just an orphan he picked up from the street 10 years ago. A girl who had grown up, but refused to leave. When he told her that she was free to go at any time, she just said, “You need someone to take care of you, Master. And I am that perfect someone”, and then stayed as his maid.Adam didn’t try to persuade her. He didn’t even talk with her that much. He wasn’t a passionate person, had never had too many emotions. During the past 600 years, he had witnessed the death of too many people. For him, people were just things, or even less than things. Because things can last and stay, while people change and decay so quickly.No matter what kind of lives they have, or how reluctantly they behave, the endings of them are just the same.They will all die eventually, being buried into the earth soundlessly, and then quickly dispersed into nowhere.Years later, sometimes even days later, no one would ever remember them. Only he, the outsid
The moment Amelia heard that she felt her blood freeze.She quickly turned her head and then looked towards the castle, then saw Jovian grabbing a young girl in uniform by her throat, dragging her to the window.It wasn’t the girl who served food for them tonight, but Mia. The torch dropped on the floor had ignited the curtain beside the window, the whole place was about to sink into fire.Jovian giggled at the window, tightening his grip on Mia’s throat, “Guess what I will do to her, baby brother? I am going to eat her alive, starting from the fingers.” He reached his other hand to Mia’s wrist and broke it off like it was a chopstick. Mia screamed out of pain, but it was quickly cut off by the hand on her throat. Her face instantly turned purple. Tears streamed down from the corners of her eyes.“Or I am going to rape her right here and dismember her. You hate that kind of thing, don’t you, little brother? I hear you deprived a wolf for a human girl.”Adam’s face turned pale. Ameli
When Amelia headed back, the temperature within the manor had suddenly dropped.The whole place somehow went into dead silence. Ominous coldness infiltrated her skin. Amelia kept her footsteps light, eliminating the sounds she made to the minimum. Way before she made it to the castle, she had already heard that cocky male voice laughing and shouting from inside it.“Where are you, Adam?”“Come to meet your big brother!”“It has been 70 years since the last time we met. Don’t you want to treat your brother to a drink?”His tone was both playful and vicious, sounding like provoking a fight or seeking conflicts. No matter who he was, his visit here was definitely not kind.Amelia quickly climbed up to a huge maple tree outside the castle. She hid herself on a branch under those lush leaves, observing the castle, trying to get a peek at what was going on inside.From the opened window on the façade of the building, she saw an average-height figure wandering through the hallway on the se
After going back to the castle, they said “good night” to each other.Adam parted with her in the lobby. He didn’t want to frighten her by escorting her to her room.Amelia took the elevator and went back alone. After entering her room, she loosened her hair first and removed all the ornaments Mia decorated on her.After that, she picked out one of her own dresses from the closet. She didn’t wear it. Instead, she wrapped it around her waist and then shifted.The castle was high, but the second floor wouldn’t be a problem for a deft wolf like her. She pushed open the window using her paws, and then jumped out through it.The dirt underneath the window was soft, tinged with the mixed scent of different kinds of plants. Amelia stopped there for a second to identify the direction. And then she moved her legs and sprinted. She was heading towards her mate who was guarding her outside those tall grey walls.She just had one of the greatest nights of her life. She couldn’t wait to share it
Adam had made plans for tonight.Long before he asked Amelia to Switzerland with him, when he was still in her bakery shop typing, writing, and observing her, he had already decided what he would do to her once he brought her here.When the night came, he would invite her for dinner for sure, but before that, he would have her dress like a princess, even make her wear a splendid wedding dress.After she cried throughout dinner at the table, he would “ask” her to dance. In the company of the beautiful symphony of Shubert, he would flirt with her, tease her, and even terrorize her by pretending to bite her. “I am going to transfer you to a vampire,” he would whisper in her ear, gliding his sharp teeth through the soft skin of her delicate neck.Amelia would be so scared, and then she would run and hide.He would chase her through every single room of this huge castle, having some weapons and exits prepared for her, giving her fake hopes now and then, but quickly push her back into deep
