‘Wake up…’
Somehow, I keep hearing the same faint voice telling me to wake up. Am I sleeping right now? Am I dreaming? Where am I? Why is it so dark?
‘Hey, wake up!’ The faint voice become bolder and gave me a slight surprise.
“Who… Who is calling me?” I asked the voice.
‘Doesn’t matter for now. You need to wake up and meet with them, get to know them and bond with them.’
I chuckle and asked the voice once again, “Alright, but who were they? And what do I need to do with them? Bonding? What the h*ck girl!”
‘I wasn’t kidding. Your life is in danger, and only Zephyr, Elm, and Aaron, the three of them, could become your protector.’
“Oh, those three wolf men?! The brute one, the annoying one, and the cute one? My protector? You’re really joking.” The chuckles turned to laughter. The mysterious voice really gave me a really good laugh this time.
‘They were not a joke! Please take this seriously. You got a second chance in life. Don’t let it go to waste!’ The mysterious voice was upset. Somehow she doesn’t like it if I belittle the three of them.
Feel bad all of a sudden, I apologized to the mysterious voice, “Sorry, and you’re right, I got a second chance in life, will never let it go to waste.”
‘As you should… Now, time to get up!’
“Wait, who are you?!”
Before I get some answer from her, my eyes were open, and I was staring at the ceiling light blinding my eyes. Another feeling came from my chest area, a hand, to be exact. The young man who I remember as Elm, staring at my face while his hand was touching my br*ast.
“What are you doing?” I asked him with more curiosity than fury.
He jumped and pulled his hand away, even got tripped as the result. I was trying to help him, but my head was spinning. The only thing I can do was to lean on the bedhead, while my eyes constantly glaring at the person who rubbed his head in pain.
“Hey, care to explain what are you doing earlier?!” I asked him while my right thumb pointed at my chest.
Still brushing his head from the fall, Elm gave me a look of annoyance, “I was trying to see if you were okay!”
“By touching my b**bs?!” I shouted at him.
He then begin to shout as well, “I… was trying to see if your heart was still beating! That was all!”
“You f*cking liar! Be thankful I was still a bit dizzy or else I will kick your *ss!” My fury came in full throttle. Even when I was incapacitated in the bed.
The bedroom door abruptly open, Zephyr looks at me and Elm. “What happened here? Why all the shouting?”
Aaron came along, he smile when my eyes looks directly at him, “Oh, you’re awake? Good, good, are you hungry? I cook some whatever soup.”
I was confused, and also wary, somehow finally realized that I wasn’t in my room anymore. I was inside a huge and posh bedroom, where the three of them staring back at me. Elm was still on the floor, Zephyr holding the door handle with a frowned on his face, while Aaron leaning on the wall beside Zephyr.
“Wait, were you kidnapping me?!” I said to them, and suddenly I remember other detailed, “You, you drug me!” I screamed at Zephyr, trying so hard to get up from the bed. Sadly, I wasn't able to move at the moment, my strength still not in full capacity.
“I guess the effect still lingered.” That annoying j*rk smirked at me, he walk out from the room, but before he was disappearing from the room, Zephyr glared at me and also at Elm, “Behave, you two!”
Aaron chuckled at the j*rk, his attention goes back to me, with a warm smile on his face he said, “Sorry we need to drug you, if only you would have heard our us, what a stubborn girl.” He doesn’t like my behavior by his words, but Aaron’s eyes tell a different story, he admiring my stubbornness.
“Ugh, that was the only thing that all of you said. Even the voice in my head said the same.” I grumbled while looking around the room.
“Voice… In your head?!” Aaron and Elm were shouting at the same time, getting intrigued by my muttered.
Afraid that they will try to asking me more question, I shake my head, and said, “It was nothing, look I wanted to refresh and probably gained more of my strength back, could the two of you leave me alone?” Aaron and Elm looking at each other, I sighed and pointing at the window and the door, “I am not going anywhere, if you don’t trust me, just lock those d*mn door and the windows.”
Aaron shrugging his shoulder, “No, I trust you. Besides, where would you go, anyway?” He said the last words and wave goodbye to me.
I look at Elm and waiting, “Well?”
Grumpily, he stands up and, exiting the room, doesn’t even bother to close the door.
“What a bunch of privilege *sshole!” I muttered and goes to close the door. Thankfully, I regained my strength, and peek into the bathroom.
The bathroom is fill with the modern items, from the egg shape bathtub with a jet, and the built in shower head for two. I think we could fill the shower room with more than two people. My mind immediately goes elsewhere.
“What a stupid b*tch you are, Cat. They kidnapped you, and now you’re thinking of getting frisky in the shower room with them?” I said to myself while giggles like a teenage girl.
I was having a dry spell even before the heart attack gets me, probably because of the last relationship with that b*stard that gave me a trust issue. My anger just went up. I hate thinking about Rhus, especially at a time like this. Time for a cold shower. Maybe it will help me think about something else rather than just some erotica movement with them. They probably waiting for me at the moment, and here I am, having a dirty thought..
After I put off all of my dirty clothes, got confused of what garment that I will be using after the shower. Definitely not going to wear those dirty clothes anymore. Suddenly, a knocked came from the door.
“Hey, it’s me, Aaron.”
“What is it?” I asked him, while in a hurry to put a towel on my body.
“I brought you some clothes.”
“Just… Just put it on the floor. I’ll retrieve it later.”
There was no reply for a while. I thought he probably just leave the clothes and walk away. When I open the door, how surprised I was surprised to see Aaron was in front of me with a bundle of clothes on his hand. Our eyes met and the first thing I do is to give him a quick punch into his face.
Aaron dodges and even grabs my hand. He was a skillful fighter. He snickers, giving me a look of his a tiny fang on the left tooth, making his rugged, handsome look softer and I must say, cuter. Pulling my hand away and tighten the towel on my body, I smile at him. “Nice catch. I thought you were just depending on that magical look that you have earlier.” Said to him, with a little teased at him. “What? this handsome look?” He snorted, and with his arm leaning on the doorframe, he stared at me and said, “Trust me, darling, I am more than just a handsome face. I can show you if you want.” Laughed at his words, I walked closer to him, until my face inches away from him, “Don’t… Call me… Darling!” and this time I successfully punch him in his guts. Hearing him gruntled and curses, I wave goodbye and close my door. “Ugh… I let you do that, you know.” Said Aaron from the other side of the door. “Yeah, yeah, whatever you said! Now leave me alone!” I
I looked at the three of them and snorted, “Well, of course you are. You don’t even know me. I will never dream of getting three men trying so hard to save my life.” Smiling at them, I then asked them once again, “Don’t worry, I know who I am, and what you guys are, so, tell me, who’s the person who deemed myself so worthy?”“Probably it’s best if the person itself tells you everything…” Said Aaron, mysteriously.I frowned when they seem trying so hard to cover up the identity. “Why are the three of you seem a bit reluctant to tell me the truth?”Zephyr massaging his forehead, “It’s not because we are reluctant about it, we…”Before Zephyr could finish his sentence, a man in his forty with a broad shoulder and a military cut came into the dining hall. His brown eyes look directly at Zephyr.“I’m back, my lord.”“Ah,
I was stunned when I saw the person that asked for my protection. It was my surgeon, the one who gave me my new heart. When she looks at me, she bow her head and tried to smile, even though it came more awkward than it should. “Oh, Doctor Anne, what are you doing here?” I said to her, while Zephyr asked all of us to sit on the sofa. “Doctor Anne? oh, come on, she got her first name basis while you asked us to call you doctor Burdock.” He teased my doctor. Somehow, Zephyr also has this side of him. Well, I knew him a day before. Of course, there are a lot of things that I don’t know about Zephyr, Aaron, and also Elm. “Can’t help it. She was my patient and I know about her thoroughly.” She said to Zephyr with a shrugged. Also another trait that I have never seen in my doctor. “Both of you seems know each other for quite some time.” I asked them after noticing their interaction. “You could say it like that,” Zephyr replied was a bit bland and ignorance. I can feel a tension from thos
“I can’t believe it, you… Hyacinth, the Hyacinth?!” I was trying to talk to the voice in my head, seems like a crazy person doing right now, but I rest my case.‘Yes, I am that Hyacinth.’ She once again confirmed it to me.I was stunned by this revelation, and didn’t know how to deal with the news, with the whole thing. I mean, my new heart belongs to a leader of a fairytale group, and allegedly was a powerful woman leader, literally powerful. Now, the voice in my head also claimed as the Luna who was the previous owner of my new heart.“You… Have got to be kidding me!” Screaming as loud as I could, and not even realize Zephyr was staring at me from the door.“We weren’t kidding though, just… trying to tell you the truth.” Said Zephyr, still with his smug *ss attitude.“Holy Sh*t! you almost gave me a heart attack! For the second time!” I yelled at Ze
(Aaron)“This is not going to work. You’re too headstrong and she was stubborn and brash.” Zephyr said to doctor Burdock, who looks at him with a look that could killed. "I forbid you to meet with her for now."“What would you like me to do? Waiting for her to get comfortable, the enemy are closing in, Zephyr, they already killed her once, I am not going to let them destroying her once again!”Zephyr was having a quarrel with doctor Burdock, me on the other hand, was having a best time when I saw her striking a punch to this arrogant and annoying doctor. I have never liked her, even though she was Hyacinth's best friend. Elm poking me and whispered.“Maybe we should go and check on her. She was so angry and just go outside without one of us following her.”I whispered back at Elm, “Angry? More like an honest assault to our doctor right here. She was furious, and rightfully so.”“Aar
(Cattleya)I was driving like a maniac, cursing about how far this mansion was from the highway. Thankfully, the r*nge rover was in a good condition, I could drive it at ease, I am not going to slow down, no matter what. My skilled as an excellent driver really being put into a test here. After a while, finally I could see the highway. Although, worried about my grandfather, I feel sorry for Elm, Aaron, and Zephyr, they tried so hard to become my protector, and here I am going to waste my life.What can I do? My grandfather was the only family that I have left. He raised me with love and care while struggling with money. He tried his best and I will always be grateful for it. This time, I will do anything to save him. Even though I could lose my life in the process.Finally, after almost two hours on the road, I almost reached grandpa’s house and already the feeling of overwhelmed, not to mention panic that came suddenly into my mind. I parked the car for
My grandpa’s house was in front of me, and I saw three huge men were just standing creepily on his front porch. They were probably there to wait for my arrival, and as the three of them already warned me about the strongest guard that the enemy had. “The enemy has one of the strongest army in our clan, the Lycan army.” Said Zephyr to me, while I was getting more headache as I need to memorize about this. “What’s a Lycan army?” I asked the three of them. Their faces told me that I will never like the answer. “Where… you already saw our wolf form and the enemy wolf form, right?” Elm said to me, while he nervously taking a glimpse at Zephyr and Aaron. “Well, they have an unusual form as a Lycan.” I titled my head, questioning Elm, answered even more, “Unusual? Truthfully, your form is already unusual for me as a human being. What unusual it can be?” Aaron unexpectedly chuckles and the words that came from his mouth, making me more nervous than before. “When you saw our wolf form, you
My grandfather was stunned, he look into the three of them while I was sitting with him. Thankfully, his wound wasn’t severe, and the medic told me to have him on the bedrest for a while. It seems I need to beg the arrogant man to place my grandfather into a safe place. Approaching Zephyr, I was so nervous and even tried to smile at him. He looks wary. “What? Why do you have to look so creepy right now?” He said to me with a frowned on his face. Dear me, do I need to flirt with him for a bit? Guess just for a bit, with bated eyelashes and my hand tucking the hair behind my ear, I asked Zephyr the question, “I need to ask if it’s possible for my grandfather to get…” He raised his hand and said, “No need for you to ask. I’ve already arranged a room for your grandfather inside the hideout.” “Really?!” I was so surprised by how generous he can be. Aaron, on the other hand, was grinning from ear to ear. “He felt sorry because we never suspected they will come here in just a day.” I l
