Into the Woods Chapter 27: We Are Going Home
Chapter 27: We Are Going Home “Eli!” It didn’t last long when I felt someone stumbled inside which made Samael drop me on the floor. I never knew who it was but his smell lingered on my nostrils and it recognized its presence. My vision is blurry but I could hear someone coming in my direction. His feet were as light as a feather when it reached my direction. When a hand touched my cheek to wake up, that's when my fear subsided. His touch is familiar. I’m glad he came. “Eli!” he mentioned my name like a melody in my ears. “Fuck! Wake up, Eli!” “Make sure everyone will be caught. Don’t let them escape!” he commanded his people with so much authority. “Hostages…” I said, trying to form my words. “What is it?” I tried blinking my eyes for the opportunity to look him in the eyes because I missed him so much. And as soon as I had a clearer view, one thing that laced in it was panic. I know it was a horrifying thing one could feel but I couldn’t see it in action. He maintained hi
Into the Woods Chapter 28: The Dungeon
Chapter 28: The Dungeon Survivors were escorted to the hall for their physical check up and a lot of physicians were summoned to be at the mansion. The moment when Apollo left us, he had never come back since. I also saw other councils arriving at the conference room, walking quickly, so I guess there would be a forum about the new plans for the survivors. Refusing to get a treatment from them because I wasn’t feeling bad, I reached for my pad where my things were. While I was heading to my destination, I bumped into Lady Isabelle who was at her usual stance—pretty, fair, and a prominent woman. But one thing I caught in her was she’s unfocused and unsteady. Seemed like her mind was somewhere else. However, she was shocked when she saw me when I leaned on her. I blinked for how many times, confused as to why she looked like she had met a ghost. I tried reaching her from her foot when she fell earlier but she crawled back. I was expecting her to nag at me but instead of doing that,
Into the Woods Chapter 29: His Fixing
Chapter 29: His Fixing “Where have you been? I have been waiting you.” Calmly Apollo queried, furrowing his dark brows as he caught me sneaking inside my room. I jolted in surprise when I saw him waiting by the side of the window, mesmerised by the beauty of the moon shimmering above. He went towards my direction and gently pulled me into a hug. It is a kind of hug that heals the uneasiness blossomed in my mind. I wonder if he knows I’m suspecting him. But I should not. Apollo will never kill just because. He is a rational alpha and he knows the value of life. I shake my head discreetly. A flash of realisation hit me when his eyes travelled in my face, seeing a messy look. The anger I had earlier didn’t disappear that easily which made Apollo stared at me again, as he walked towards my direction. When he stood in front of me, I had to lift my chin due to his height. His wide but tone body blocked the light coming from the lampshade I have. “Don’t tell me you went to the dungeon?
Into the Woods Chapter 30: The Senior Council
Chapter 30: The Senior Council “Elias!” Apollo snapped his fingers at me, looking so worried. I turned my gaze towards Aunt Isadora and Shahida who were also waiting for me to speak. I swallowed my own spit and forced a smile. “You’re spacing out. Is there something bothering you?” Apollo asked, holding my hand which I pulled away. He was shocked. Instead of getting mad, he looked at Elias worriedly. “Nothing. I’m sorry,” was all I said. But curiousity really kills me. Did Isabelle come here? Did she talk to me? “What’s the matter, Eli?” Aunt Isadora asked this time. But I just shook my head. After that, Shahida confirmed what I was thinking. “What happened between you and Isabelle? You looked flustered when she talked to you earlier.” So I wasn’t dreaming. That was real. But, why it felt like an illusion? “Don’t ask him too much. He must be adjusting. Just continue eating.” All of them didn’t ask after that. Even Apollo himself stopped but I could still sense his worried st
Into the Woods Chapter 31: The Murder
Chapter 31: The Murder Elias’ POV “Lady Isabelle.” It had been about thirty minutes when the senior council left the mansion so I decided to go back to Isabelle’s room. She was still there memorizing for the last time her room as I learnt that today is her last day at the mansion. I led her to the long settee and gave her a cup of water, but I could still sense her trembling. She gripped the skin of the seat and unsteady. “Are you okay?” I asked with worry. Although what she did earlier was unreasonable, I couldn’t get mad at her for long. Isabelle may be a strong female werewolf but she has weaknesses too. We all are. I don’t know if she’s aware that I am here. Considering her situation I couldn’t leave her unattended. I wonder where her personal servant is. “Do you think I was grateful to you because you defended me? You’re still an outcast trying to steal my husband, Elias,” she argued, glaring at me intently. What is she talking about? I saved her from her father because h
Into the Woods Chapter 32: The Offer
Chapter 32: The Offer Finally I went inside, and didn't prolong the servants’ agony from attending to him. Apollo quickly sat back on bed as it dipped down because of his weight, leaning backwards on the headboard, acting as if he didn’t do anything bad. I saw him motioning his hands to his servants, shooing them away. The servants did what they were told and left the room. He faked a cough as I sat beside him, sitting on the stool provided for the visitor. “I thought I have the right to command you if it’s about your health and I remember you agreed on me. What happened now? Why is it that the alpha of Northcrest is stubborn. I thought you were a man of word?” I joked, teasing him. He was silent for a moment. I don’t know what’s inside his mind but he’s just staring right to me. He sighed, retreating. “You’re late… again,” he pouted. But he took it away. “Why are you late?” Oh my God. What did I just see? I chuckled at his cuteness as I placed my hand on his neck and forehead t
Into the Woods Chapter 33: The Attempt
Chapter 33: The AttemptThird Person POVNot long after Apollo had shared his story to Elias, his eyes automatically sunk when he felt the sudden wrath of the rain outside. On the long settee, his head rested on his left arm, while Elias snucked himself.It was pouring on the heavy loads as Apollo let himself carried away with the effect of the rain.Elias felt the opposite. He has been watching Apollo since he talked about what happened before and he was immensely invested in him that his eyes couldn’t leave Apollo’s angelic face. He was like a child while sleeping soundly but a roaring dragon when awake.“I wonder how you cope with what you’ve experienced. It must be so hard,” Elias murmured while brushing his fingertips on Apollo’s face.The clouds were still pouring water with frequent roaring of thunder and lightning.“It would be nice if I had met you earlier, wouldn’t it?”Elias recalled how Apollo saved him from the brink of death as he finally decided to take his own life. It
Into the Woods Chapter 34: The Selfish Heart
Chapter 34: The Selfish Heart Their sibling moment was cut off when they heard pack warriors coming their way. “Make sure you found the outsider.” It was Rico. He ordered his team to catch the outsider who tried to sneak inside. They didn’t know that it was Isabelle and Andrius. Andrius led Isabelle outside without getting caught. They acted as if they were walking straight to the pavilion. Rico found them and bowed down. “What happened here? Why are the pack warriors roaming around?” Andrius asked suspiciously. “There was an outsider who sneaked inside the alpha’s chamber. We didn’t able to catch him as he knew the pathways inside,” Rico replied. “What about you, beta? Why were you walking in the middle of the rain?” Rico caught Isabelle from Andrius’ back and bowed down. “Good evening, Lady Isabelle.” Isabelle hid herself, scared for nothing. Rico furrowed his brows as he didn’t understood why Isabelle acted that way. “We came from the greenhouse for a walk but we got stuck
