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
he heavy rain splattered against the black umbrella didn’t stop the vigilant gaze from piercing through the crowd. Amor stood there and calculated that the murder of a witch, a rogue in his territory, could lead to a war between witches and wolves. Whatever was there, something big was coming their way, challenging their existence. An unexpected encounter in the woods followed by these murders. Could he be the one behind all this? Or is someone else involved in this game? “Did you find the head?” Amor questioned, looking at Jasper. “Yeah, down the alley.” “Was it a pack member?” Amor was raised as an alpha. It was his responsibility to protect everyone in his pack. “No, he was a rogue.” His scrunched brows didn’t halt with further queries. He sniffed the jacket Jasper was holding. “The woman was a witch. Someone else was there,” Jasper added. Amor and Jasper headed back into the house, which was now sealed with yellow tape. The sheriff was Amor’s friend and benefited from the w
Sitting alone in his room, Amor was amazed by the revelation his dad had presented to him. The paramour bloodline was known as sex slaves; how come that witch had this mark on a piece of paper?Now the things were getting clear; he was looking for a Lycan and a paramour woman carrying this mark in his territory.Now that he understood the importance of it, he needed to know how Savannah was involved in all this. He wanted to confront her, but couldn’t find a solid reason to go to her dorm and talk to her.It’s been two days, and he needed to find out every detail about her.His train of thought rested when someone knocked at the door.“Brother,” Nathan poked his head inside.“What?” Amor replied casually.“I have invited my friends today, including Savannah.” Amor’s ears alerted. Till now, he has told no one about this situation except Jasper and his father.“Why? Is there any special occasion?”“Nothing. As the holidays are coming, we all had planned to visit cabins this Friday.” Nat
The full moon night was about to come, and this time Savannah would not take the risk, whatever it was she felt last time. Nathan and her friends wanted to take her to the cabins, and she agreed as she wanted to escape all this chaos.“What are you thinking?” Nathan questioned, sitting next to her in the library.“Nothing,” she lied; Amore showed her the same picture. And he is involved in all this. She had to be careful, too.“I am hoping you are not sliding back.” Nathan teased.“No, I already asked my aunt. She agreed.” Savannah answered, knowing how difficult it was for her to make Shela agree to one condition. She had to take the pills with her.“That’s good to know. What about Jenny? Is she coming?”“Yes, she will join,” Savannah added with a smile.“I am excited. We will have a good time.” Nathan winked and picked up his bag.“Where are you going?” Savannah asked, following his steps towards the exit.“Need to arrange a few things for all of us. I don’t want just to go and sit
“Savannah,” Jenny called again while she was busy completing her stuff for the trip. This trip could be a stress buster, and Savannah needed it. Since the time she landed on this university campus, things have gotten complicated. She encountered several unnatural things which she never expected. She opened her drawer, and her eyes stuck on the long-forgotten packet. The pills box Sheila has gifted ways the gift was from her mom.“Savi, how long are you going to take?” Jenny interrupts her thoughts by tapping on the door.“I am coming,” Savannah stuffed the pillbox in her bag while zipping it up as she placed her bag. Her eyes shifted unconsciously towards the calendar, seeking the full moon night evening coming in the next two days. Having pills is no harm; she had to prepare herself for the unexpected. If things happened again, she would be ready for it. Besides, Sheila already mentioned the importance of these pills.“Nathan has sent his car to pick us up,” Jenny giggled, looking do
As the morning sun sparkled above her head, Savannah’s eyes fluttered to welcome the sunlight. Last night’s investigation was enough to reason for her late waking time, and she finally remembered where she saw that house.It was in her dream. She saw the same house abandoned house in her dream on her birthday. She looked around to share this news with Jenny, but she was not there. Dropping her duvet from her body, she walked towards the restroom to follow her routine, but she remembered something more than that.It was the day when it all started last month. Today was the full moon night; the last time she remembered, she started feeling sick with a dizzy head and heightened senses to hear everything. Her skin was burning the last time like molten lava.She unintentionally scanned the mirror, looking at her illusion, which hinted at her usual self. To be assured of her health, she observed her mark, which seemed regular, like her skin color.What is happening to her? She had an encoun
