MONDAY MORNINGAsher gathered all the information about Jenny and her family nursing Octavio’s hunger. He informed neither Jenny’s family nor Jenny had ever encountered the information of werewolf existence. She was a tech nerd who liked to tap on dark pages to get knowledge, which dragged their focus onto her. But Octavio couldn’t sleep as the churning thoughts questioned him constantly. If none of them were werewolves, where did they get the paramour symbol? The thirst to find the paramour ignited more than ever. “Did you search her house?” Octavio commanded Asher.“Yes, we did. And nothing comes out.” “What about Mark and Sheila?”“Well, it was hard, but I let our men enter their house disguised as pest control people,” Asher added, holding the mark printout in his hand.Octavio drove towards the university, and none of this made sense to him.“We found nothing except the fact they are wolves.”Octavio bit his tongue as his eyes landed on the crowd of youngsters chirping and enjo
Amor was sitting in the office contemplating the thoughts of this new unseen enemy. Till now, he fought big, bad wolves and trained to smash their head, but this new enemy was not what he expected it to be.When a wolf knows his enemy, they know when and where to attack his weak point, but when there is an unknown enemy, a wolf can only read the danger sign left by him.Amor visited where Octavio’s man slaughtered the entire pack and left no she-wolves. From the sight in front of his eyes, he could understand that death danced well before taking those poor souls with it.With the elders of his pack coming together, they summoned every pack member and alerted them of this unpleasant news. These mountains were their home, and from now, every wolf needed to turn into this territory where other members could protect them.Precautions are better than cures. But something still suffocated Amor’s mind. The enemy was here, and he couldn’t find him. His beta Jasper and Shabi entered the room,
The window howled viciously with the breezy December air when Amor slid the glass to show himself at the campus guard. The guard greeted Amor and let him enter the metallic door of the University campus. The thunder barraged through the sky, revealing the dark, haunted mountain- secrets. Amor kept his senses vigilant to grab a single clue to hunt his enemy down. These mountains are his home, his territory, and he would allow no outsider to come and display his claim. It was late evening, and most of the students were already in their rooms except a few who strolled in this chilly weather. He checked his wrist’s perimeter and glanced at the two-pointers. It was already ten. The weather seems courageous enough to stop him from going to her dorm, but he looks firm enough to crash all the attempts to stop him. What’s so special about this girl, he asked himself, and a smile tugged up on his lips, thinking, not just her beauty but her brain. She seems like a delicate flower where every b
Inquisitor Amor strolled back to his vehicle; something was off. Either she hid something or didn’t realize some unexpected things trawled her. He fished out his phone and pulled out Jasper’s number to dial. His eyes landed on the door of his car, where a claw mark was waiting for him to get confirmation of someone’s presence.His jaw clenched in reflex, and finger pads caressed the metallic peels.“Hello, Amor.” Jasper jeered.“Somebody is here,” Amor replied in a lower tone.“What? Where are you?”“I think he is keeping a close eye on her,” Amor replied calmly, but the air brought a pungent smell, pulling his senses in that direction. “I will call you back.” He threw the phone on the front seat and looked around to see if someone was watching him. He was the man who worked on his instincts, and these continued alarming his senses, wanting him desperately to look into the folds of woods and find the one.He spun close to the bushes, took off his clothes in a blink of an eye, and fol
Savannah’s lips stuttered. It was not a dream.He was real. But how come he was sleeping in her bed, penalizing her by sucking her lips like this?“Come here,” his dominant voice, letting her remind she has no power now. It’s just the mercy she could ask from her tormentor.“Are you going to hurt me?” Leaning close to his chest, she pulsated her sobs.“Yes,”“What did I do wrong?” His musky, earthy scent filled her nostrils.“You allowed someone to touch you. You shouldn’t have done that.” She gazed at his silhouette, only to see a pair of blue eyes lighting in the dark.“No one touched me.” She jeered.“Yes, he did. He kissed your cheeks.” How come he knows Amor pecked her cheeks? Is he really a ghost who lives in her room?What should she do to inform him it was not her fault, and when did she become his property? She needs to take a stand and make him feel she is not a property; she has an individual identity and has the same freedom as other girls to choose whom she would want to
The morning shuddered through the sheer curtains, entering from the patio slider and knocking at Savannah’s peer. Her heavy, lush lashes struggled to open, but her senses were activated once adjusted by the morning light and a voice coming from the other side of the door.“Savi,” Jenny’s voice came from the other side.“Coming,” she forced herself out of bed, making her way towards the door.“Are you ok? Don’t you have lectures to attend?” Jenny jeered, looking at her exhausted features, reading the situation’s urgency.“I am leaving,” Jenny patted her shoulder, leaving Savannah to head back to her bed. The door latched, and the silence crippled, letting Savannah feel why she was feeling so exhausted.The glimpses of yesterday’s night were hazy like before, but she had more proof to seek the truth. She immediately hopped out and dropped the bathrobe she was sleeping in and watched herself in the mirror. Her eyes widened with shock when the unknown marks peppered her body, screaming th
As the uber proceeded to the destination, an eerie feeling crippled Savannah’s senses. Those haunting thoughts of getting to know the truth behind this havoc didn’t leave her for a moment. Those pills and Sheila’s nervousness boomed inside her again whenever she wanted to talk about the fact. Everything was shady, and she needed to find the truth to clear her mind. Not more than her spooky thoughts left her mind. The heavy rain marched her way.“Storm is coming.” The driver suggested, looking down at the map. If she were stuck here, what would happen? What if she doesn’t get a ride back home?“How much time?” She murmured, scanning the perimeter of her wrist. It was nine already, and according to her unsaid rules, she was supposed to stay at her dorm, not roam downtown to meet an unknown stranger.“Five more minutes. Are you sure you want to go here?” Not just the weather and the thoughts, but even the next human being is spooking her from every pore.“Why? Is there any problem?”“No,
The silence of the night brought a piece of unknown weary news for everyone. Savannah ran after to know the truth, but before she could set herself free from the chaotic mess, she saw something horrific that shook her core.Octavio was eager to know what he would discover in search of a paramour bloodline. Watching her unconscious body in his arms, begging for help, alerted somebody was there. After speaking with Asher, he finds out a wolf killed the witch.The moment Octavio thought he would solve this mystery, a new puzzle piece popped up. Why did Savannah come here? Who killed the witch?And what is a rogue doing here?He rested Savannah’s unconscious body in the back seat and thought to have further word again with Asher, only to find out he was coming his way, holding the neck of the rogue in his hand.“Show off,” Octavio blurted, glancing at the wolf's head he was holding in his right claw. Asher smirked, throwing the lead into the drain.“The witch wanted to inform Savanah abou
