3rd Point of View.
The prophecy. It's even harder now to escape from humility. Damion screamed and wolf out. His drooling mouth pointed into Faye's precious body. Faye is not bothered to move, not even scared of him. But Damion wants her, he wanted to kill her. For some reason, there's a part of him that wanted to break the rules, although it would cost his life. But the fact that he's in danger too, stopped him.
Faye laughed while looking at the helpless Damion, wanting to humiliate him even more. Continuously breathing, desperately hoping that Faye wasn't his mate. But his wolf says otherwise. He can feel it inside. That feeling a while ago of wanting to kill, turn into a desire to mate.
"Who sent you here?" asks Jacob vulnerably. He has numerous wounds, some of which are fatal. "Sombermane? Or Starry Banes?"
Damion looked away. Faye thought he was about to leave and escape, so he held his arms, and wanted to pull him inside their unit, and lock him up. As soon as she hold him, the spark of electricity flowed from her through him. They both feel the rush of libidinous running all the way down there. It's now activated, no one could stop them. Damion held Faye's neck, locking her in between his arms. Faye wrapped her arms around him, and couldn't fight the desire even though she was in front of her parents.
Faye licked her lower lip and furrowed her brows. She felt the liquid coming out of her.
"What is this? Why does it feel so hot? Damn, I can't help but be honest," asked Fate nonconsciously.
"I don't know either. I just met my mate," Damion answered huskily and sexily. Damn, he just turned on Faye just the way he speaks.
Lucy and Jacob stepped outside to stop the two. One step only and they will stop them, but Damion did the honor. Not because he was scared of Jacob and Lucy, but the smell that he feel a while ago when Faye held his arms.
He took some time to recognize, to make sure it was really them. No matter how many times he denies it, it was the Sombermane Band Pack, all drooling and wanting to kill Faye.
"W-we have to leave," says Damion, holding Faye's hand- while also fighting the arousal simultaneously. Jacob took her daughter's hand angrily and pulled her to come with him.
"Yes, and we will leave without you," Lucy responded.
"W-what?" Damion responded, furrowing his brows.
Lucy mimicked him, and then reply, "Do you think we will keep you safe just because you're her mate? Besides, you can lie and tell them you missed us."
The threat of the enemy is getting stronger. The scent is getting nearer. Damion has left no choice but to threaten them.
"But if I get killed here, she will too," he says, pertaining to Faye. "We're connected now, remember? Jacob reminded me too."
Lucy and Jacob looked into each other, bothered by what he just said. He made a point, somehow enough to convince the two. Faye got scared. But since her parents are not doing anything, she'd decided to pull Damion toward her and then initiated to run away.
All of them wolf out, running away using their claws, and widened feet to go faster. But they stopped when Jacob did. His severe wound got worst, completely sucking his strength and blood. Because the blood kept dripping from his arm, the scent will get worse, and they will get track sooner before they know it.
"Jacob..." Lucy uttered. His lips are now pale, and he shifted into a human.
"Leave, Lucy. You can leave me here so Faye would be safe," he says. Lucy shook her head and held his cheeks to assure him.
"I won't leave you here. We're mated. How can I protect Faye if you will die? I will die too, and no one is left in this world that will protect Faye but us! Hold on, Jacob, just a little longer. We will get out of here safe."
Lucy pulled his hand to continue running. But he resisted and pulled his hand back. He caressed Lucy's cheeks and smiled.
"Remember? We're not mated. We've waited for several years, waiting for our wolves to recognize each other, but they couldn't. Not even once, or a single clue shows you're my mate. We weren't mated, we just chose each other because of love. So you can still be safe, even though I will end up dead. Please, go."
Faye's eyes widened, grain of tears started falling. It was the first time she have heard about her parents' history. What else does she need to know? First, the Moonstone, and about those werewolf packs who are insane to hostage her and ripped her body apart. Next, this fact about her parents.
Damion held her hand, trying to distract her from the pain circulating around her chest. He got her attention, enough for her to look at him curiously. Faye took her hand back, crossed her chest to hide her hands, and stepped a little farther from him. Damion furrowed his brows out of confusion. A while ago, Faye was so wild and excited to mate. But now, this? She's hard to read, at least for Damion.
Lucy couldn't accept Jacob and the fact that he was feeling weak. So she tried her best to put him behind her, and she will do the running.
"Hmm, the taste of this air, coming from the scent of that girl. She's Faye they say, am I right? We're getting nearer. Thanks to the Beta of Sombermane Band Pack," says one of the werewolves coming to their place.
Damion heard it. He can hear them because they were the members of his pack. Right now, he felt worried sick about this family. He couldn't afford to see them suffering. Damion then sucked Jacob's blood and spat it on the ground. He tear a piece of cloth from his cloth and wrapped it around the wound. Finally, he put Jacob on his back, preparing for the run to be faster than it was.
"Where are we going?" asked Lucy.
"Back to the forest."
Faye was surprised but negative.
"We will not go back there," Faye interfered.
"Do you know any place you can hide from? A place that no one would suspect?"
Faye thought about it for a while. It was weird, and she felt uncomfortable that she thought of that man. But there's no place in her heart is for her shame right now.
"Yes, he is Lowell."
"Is it a man?" asks Damion.
Without thinking further. Faye nodded. Damion's rush emotion of anger made him drop Jacob to the ground.
"A MAN?! DAMN IT! ARE YOU EVEN THINKING?"
Scared Faye stepped backward. A loud yell makes her heart pound faster, enough to walk away from him. Although stuttering, she managed to talk.
"He's my friend, and he's not scared of we-werewolves..." Faye responded, looking away. Damion wanted to take out his anger, which in the first place he shouldn't have felt, on Lowell already. But they have to be quick. Any time now, a werewolf hunter will discover them.
Lucy got mad. Jacob is now unconscious, leading to the conclusion that he might not wake up again. So Damion runs faster.
While running, they failed to not get discovered. Sombermane Band pack's army is already chasing them, licking their lips, playing with their tongue. The army is imagining possessing the Moonstone they believed is in Faye. They struck their arrows toward them. Luckily, Damion knows their move. Although they couldn't see the army, he still did it blindly.
Before he know it, they were already in front of Lowell's house. It's designed modernly. There's a terrace on the second floor and a pool on the first floor which can be seen as soon as you enter the gate, and it's just fascinating with the interior designs.
Lowell was a bit worried to see a strange man carrying Jacob enter his house. What if he was a bad werewolf who was just pretending to be caring and will eat him? Lowell thought but erased it in his hand. It was the luck of Jacob that saved them all. If it weren't for him, they wouldn't have the rush of running faster. However, Faye is not lucky enough to avoid the arrow. But the horrible fact is that no one knows it. Damion felt Faye's pain. The reason for him to go out of Lowell's house.
At the back of him, there's a pain that feels like someone is penetrating. What he feels, is exactly what Faye felt.
"Thank you for letting us in," Lucy broke the silence, as her daughter, who should've done it, is not speaking.
"No worries, Lucy. For Faye and for your family, I will do anything," Lowell responded while smiling- making Lucy feel she was not a burden.
Lucy licked Jacob's fatal wound to heal him faster. He was still unconscious, but his pale face turned to normal. Those little signs are enough to calm the worried heart of Lucy. The silence helped Lowell to notice Faye, who is now unconscious. He looked closely, thinking he might be wrong, and hoping she was okay. But he was right.
"L-Lucy, is this normal? Is she normal when her veins are showing visibly and looked like some black thing is flowing through them?" asked Lowell, trembling.
Lucy looked at Faye. The one whom they were willing to die for just to protect, got hurt. She rushed into her daughter.
"Oh, my god. In no time, she will turn into a corpse! Why so soon?" Lucy whispered, feeling panic-stricken.
"There's a poison."
Faye's Point of View. I remember, there was a cloudy dark smoke dominating my eyesight before I completely closed my eyes. Cold air simply covers my body. It's as if I was being blanketed using an ice blanket. The first thing that comes into my mind, is Damion. I hate that he has to be connected to my pain. Responsibility for taking care of my body is not my thing. I wanted to be a wild alcohol drinker until I'm crawling because of intoxication, party with my friends in a club where hot boys do come, and no one can be blamed if ever I got into an accident and die. His appearance in my life is quite disturbing. The first day of the meeting, and I'm already feeling humiliated when my wolf rushed in wanting to mate. In front of my parents, my coquettishness showed that I try hard to hide! And now, there's an arrow intoxicating my body slowly, spreading all the poisons extracted into the arrow. Now, instead of just thinking about myself healing, I will also think about him endlessly wit
Faye's Point of View. My hands are tied with Damion using leaves. My eyes are still blurry and I'm having a severe headache. I couldn't open it, all I feel is a weakened body. Why? What happened to me? Then I just remember. When Damion was still unconscious, how come I don't feel anything when we couldn't wake him up? "It's because you are the one who caused him that pain." Who's that? Someone heard me when I'm speaking in my head? "You're not speaking in your head, this is your subconscious, and I am your wolf." M-my wolf? My god. I could speak with my wolf using thoughts. "Oh please, stop making me roll my eyes again. Yes, you could! This is your subconscious, you idiot." Now, I'm the one who's rolling my eyes. My wolf is part of my personality, so it means we are one. But how come she angers me when she speaks? "It's just simple to answer. It's because you hate yourself. Ugh, I'm not here to answer your stupidity, okay? I'm here to tell you to watch your mate. This is the f
Faye's Point of View. Damion's cold temperature makes me worried sick. At the same time, it makes me think of multiple questions. The fact that he wanted to hide when he was about to wolf out is enough for me to wonder. His eyes are burning red, and his fangs, claws, and fur are starting to grow. I feel so scared. Nonconsciously, I stepped a little backward, showing an initial sign of fear. Despite how hard I tried to hide my fear so he won't feel so different about himself, my gestures failed to recognize my thoughts. It's like it has its own life. "Go outside," says Damion, looking away. He's hugging himself, shivering with cold. I can't afford to see him like this. Having two options is a privilege, but I'm turning it down. I fought my fear and went near him. Although there's a part of me that doesn't like it, I still hugged him. Damion struggled to get away- to push me away... but I'm not letting him. I let him struggle to fight my embrace until he gets tired and submits himsel
3rd Point of View. Jacob was bothered because of the Moon Goddess' response regarding his prayer. All he wanted is to protect his daughter. Is it too much to ask for? After all, it wasn't Faye, Jacob, or Lucy's fault that Faye is bound to have an excruciating painful life. It was the Moon Goddess' fault for partnering Faye with a man who wanted to kill her— whose mission is to end her life. Jacob was preoccupied as he walked back to Lowell's Villa. After Chandra says her last line, she immediately disappears from Jacob's naked eye. Even if he wanted to change his decision or ask so many questions, Moon Goddess already forbids him by disappearing without a clue of when she'll re-appear. Lucy welcomed Jacob, worried sick. "Why are you home so late?" she asked while wiping Jacob's sweats. Jacob couldn't answer as soon as he was questioned. The question has also been forgotten when Lowell appeared, together with Fatima. Lowell looked so troubled. He couldn't even open his mouth to de
Damion's Point of View. Pounding joy couldn't escape my heart. I almost thought she despise me because of my sudden disappearance without notice or at least a sign that I'm still alive. I'm glad she didn't stop finding me, even though there's a hundred percent chance she will only find my remains. Her effort is beyond thoughtful, she's limitless and brave. I answered her before she rejected my intimate hug. "Just like you, I also wondered why. But we can still change this, okay?" I answered while holding back my outburst to laugh and release my overflowing romantic excitement. She pulled my arms and put them at the back of me— showing an initial sign of attacking. Answering, "Am I a laughingstock to you, Mr. Damion?" This time, the urge to laugh can no longer be hidden, so I let it out while trying to get my arms out of my back. I was about to answer. We were having fun and almost own the entire night, making it OUR night. But the Alpha King appeared. I can see his anger even in t
Faye's Point of View. Only a few inches away from the random man's face, near to kissing him. Only one move and Damion will kiss the random man unconsciously. But right now, I'm pretty sure he didn't care for anything else other than hurting that man whose planning to hit on me. It feels like he was out of this world and thinks he can do anything without anyone's approval. Whispering, "This is what happens to a man who can't be told once. This is what'll happen to a man who wanted to control my woman." Damion glared at the man, soaked in blood and damaged face, before he completely let go of his collar, coming back to drag me out of that place again. God damn it. My chest is about to come out. I can even feel my hot cheeks, probably is burning red right now. When he holds my hand, there was heat and spark that traveled through it, going to the passage of my veins, passing through my heart, and leading to my brain. Unconsciously, I stopped even when we were not so far from the bar. I
3rd Point of View. Like the raging fire, Jacob went berserk. He abnormally releases his anger that he couldn't control in the giant cauldron that Fatima and Lowell used to cook potions of medicines. He wolfed out, and now, his strength maximized to its full power, and could perfectly throw tantrums and eradicate things that caught his eye. The garden of Lowell seems like there's an enormous storm passed through. "Pitiful Jacob," snarled Fatima while sipping her expensive liquor placed in an expensive crystal glass, rolling her eyes upward. She was standing on her balcony while resting her arms on its railing. "Nah, don't you say that, Fatima. It's stupidity, I supposed. Stupid love makes him go wild like that," Lowell replied, walking to stand up beside Fatima. "A love he shouldn't even have in the first place?" Fatima laughed. "To protect Faye, he became obsessed with everything about his own daughter's business. Lowell, he's creepy." "Yeah, but how do you say he's flying into
Faye's Point of View."Confusing you?" he replied while furrowing his brows. Damion pushed me in front of him and got on his knees. "I apologize for this matter, Mr. Jacob. I couldn't bring her as soon as I found her. She's too stubborn and a slut.""A slut?!" I butted in. "Who do you think are you talking about? How dare you say that fearlessly in front of my face as if you're reporting about a stranger? You shithead."Damion nodded. "Yes, you're right. You're a stranger to me."My brows met. A perfect non-verbal way to ask, "WHAT?!"Damion was on his knees while stating a foolish statement. I rolled my eyes. This makes me sick. Mom looked fierce, and dad is terrifying. Maybe, if hurting Damion won't hurt me, my parents are already a murderer. Just the thought of it, it makes me want to throw up. Mom went closer to my face and checked. Maybe she's making sure that Damion didn't touch me. Then she came near Damion who was still bowing in front of them. Cripes, my parents are regular
