Those snitches!
“I-I got to get out,” I mouthed almost inaudible as I walk towards the door.
“No,” he said. So austere and emotionless, causing me to swallow air.
I bit my lips as I lowered my head afore the locked door. My hands started to tremble and it seems like my voice turned away and that I do no longer know how to speak. He’s frightening.
“I only knew one mistake I did to you. I know you loath me. But—"
The way he talked. The way the ice between us formed…
“—is it too much burden for you to carry even the only thing I ask from you?”

I let out a sassy smile when my paws stepped on grassy plains drizzled with water drops. The warm breeze blowing over my coat and the cinematic hues of the sky meeting the seas. A dark shade of tourmaline lowers to light blue as it collides with the lemon arrayed sunrise.Zaetron turned around and met my gaze. “Expect no formal welcome,” he blurted in my head.I simply nodded in reply.It took us a few hours to arrive here and as I let those time pass by, I can’t help myself but frown and shake my head multiple times realizing how dramatic I look doing that. it was like I lost have of my ego back there.I also don’t understand why I did that. Is it because of pity when I saw what he looked like at that time? He was deeply disappointed and there was a hint of pain in his
“I waited for a decade to be able to get out from the pack. And when I got the approval of the elders, the first thing I did was to find you.” He gently tugged my arm and led me to the cliff, parallel to the ocean. “Did we take hours messing around?” I furrowed to his question. Zaetron turned to face me and tilted his head, pointing in the direction where the sun is now rising. “You missed the sunrise.” I smiled at him and diverted my sight to the wide ocean afore me. “I can return here tomorrow. It’s not like the sea would leave its place.”&nbs
“Why? You want me to tell them who am I and then your enemy will pick me to be their hostage?” I uttered, raising my brow. But again, he chuckled. “You? A hostage?” I don’t want to admit but why does he look hotter than earlier? ‘Gosh, Denise! He’s just soaked in water, what’s the difference?’ I shook my head to that thought..“Stop staring at me.” But those abs, it’s perfectly packed. And the string of waters dripping on his broad shoulders, his messy drenched hair that now looks more of a black shade than red, that chiseled jaw he has, those sharp eyebrows that match his
“Again? Are you out of your mind, Cole?”“I’m not. Let me pass through, Marcus.”“Hey, hey, If that woman again diverts your attention, I swear I’m gonna be the one who’ll drive her away.”“Okay, listen. I was not the one who forced her to come with me. She pleaded to be with me.” There’s something in my head that goes irritated, causing me to pinch his skin below his arms with my eyes still close. I could’ve enjoyed my sleep if it weren’t because of these two people arguing noisily. If I’m not mistaken, I heard that voice
“I said I don’t have to. Everything’s fine, what are you worrying about?” I repeated when he again dragged me out of the room.“And there is nothing wrong getting you checked up. What are you worrying about?” he nagged, making me breathe in heavily and force a smile out.“Get out. You have a lot of work to do, why don’t you prioritize that first, huh?” His eyes narrowed looking at me. “Why have you changed so suddenly? You’re laughing and joking a while ago, then here you are glaring at me irritatedly.” My knees collapsed without any warning and streams of water started gushing out of my eyes.&nb
Three months later…“Do you have any updates from the frontier?” I asked the moment I opened the wooden door leading to the headquarters. But instead of an answer, a woman with her long red hair raised her head and gave out a contemptuous glare at me. “I have.”“What is it?” “Hmm,” she sneered and placed both her palm on the table afore her, forming a mocking vibe towards me. “You don’t have to know. Unless… you became the Luna.” I scowled at her and slapped the glass table between us. My lips automatically smirked arrogantly as I tilt
A storm of arrows was buzzing and fizzing through the sky. A blizzard of spears was shrilling and slicing through. Battering and beating the enemies under a sunless empyrean. A lesion of lodestar-bright light illuminated the benighted sky. The battleground became slimy with intestines scattered and greasy with gore. Titian-red blood spurted from their wounds as men wailed and screamed. Sounds of bones were snapping and shattering as a flood of horrendous rebels broke the lines of defenses. The effluvium of death was all around. The battlefield had been baptized in blood and the bitter, mordant perfume of corpses emanated from it. This is the scenario I see afore me. I can’t define it even more than a single word… This is horror.&n
“I have built walls around me for years to stop this stupid thing called ‘mates’. I didn’t expect this to happen any sooner than I expected.”“Maybe there was a reason why he forced you out. Maybe because… like you, he has something to protect. I-I don’t think he’s that bad.” You think?“What if you try loving him back, Denise?” Hearing that, I chuckled. “How about you? Why don’t you try loving your mate back?”“Hey, it is your matter. Not mine. We have different situations, Denise. Don’t change the course,” she grumped and tightened the bandage intentionally, making me exclaim in pain. “Get it?” I nodded and diverted my eyes to the vast mountains afore the opened window. “I don’t trust people I just bumped at. I don’t want to trust mates particularly.”“But at least try to?” she repeated. My mouth shut. “Maybe it could be the one healing the scars of the past.”“I don’t want to take a risk, Sydney,” I quickly replied. “I’ve had enough damage w
