"Gotcha! I might already find where they were taking Nathan." Melissa exclaimed, ignoring our statements about her pregnancy thing. She then turned her face at me and asked, "are you guys saying something?" My eyes immediately pointed elsewhere, avoiding getting eye-to-eye contact with Melissa. "Nothing, in particular, Melissa. But, do you already have the address where they were taking Nathan?" Then I dropped my gaze to my laptop, assuming that my wolf understands what were those coordinates and images being displayed on the screen. "Yeah," she suddenly dropped smiling. "But it was ten hours away from here," Melissa said back. "He was in one of the penitentiaries in Russia." "Russia?" The four of us at the table breathed back in unison. As far as my knowledge is concerned, Russia is one of the countries in the world that has the most impossible and risky to visit. Aside from that, their people were not as friendly and helpful as you think they were, especially
{Nathan's POV} A few hours after being unconscious, I found myself in a closed four-walled room with my arms tangled with thick and heavy chains. As tiny as it is, my hands could reach both walls side to side. Aside from that, utter darkness was all my eyes could see in the room. The worst part was that my wolf could barely breathe because of the lack of oxygen in the room. If this kind of uncomfortable situation will last longer, I'm afraid my wolf would take control of my body when sooner or later, my human side will finally give in. So, I tried to stay calm as much as possible. Then, I enhanced my werewolf senses and dragged them heading outside. "What the hell is going on?" One of the prisoners asked in a sleepy tone. "Didn't you hear the deafening sounds of the alarm?" says the other prisoners. "Don't look at me. I don't know either. Just woke up too." "I guessed someone tried to escape. Who could it be?" "Look who's missing?" The cell
"Don't make things hard for you, young prince. It's one against a thousand. Don't you see? This entire prison belongs to me. You may be the prince, wherever you come from, but I am the king of this place." Big Boss announced. The rest of the prisoners with us in the toilet room nodded in unison. But even if they all agreed to the Big Boss' statement, my wolf could not deny the fact that there were parts of them that wanted to detach themselves from his kingdom and will stay in peace inside the penitentiary. "No matter what you can do, you can't defeat me, Nathan. You're just a fucking useless prince. I'm the ruthless king. Three minutes. I'll give you three minutes to clean that up. I'm gonna take a bath after three minutes. If you can't finish that on time, I'm gonna cut off those fingers of yours. Are we clear?" I refused to give my statement from his request. However, my wolf has left no choice. So, I grabbed the mop and bucket of water from the corner and started c
The second my foot landed on the ground, my wolf's sense of smell immediately scented a few corpses all over the place. Some were new while most of them seemed to be forgotten by time and their families. I can also sense their extreme screams, pains, delusions, and begs. The place was completely dark, cold, and dusty. The walls were thick and soundproof, I can tell. Staying in the place longer might make me go mad when I could not sense any sign of happiness inside the tunnel. Everything is madness. As soon as the old man and his friends lit up some fire, the image of the place has gotten into my eyes. It was similar to hell if I have to describe the images. Hundreds, if not thousands, of piled-up human bones are all over the place. "How did you this place existed?" My wolf muttered to the old man as we continued passing through those bones. "Oh. I've been in this place since I was twenty, young man. What do you think how old am I?" he chuckled shortly before he ad
Because the entire place was swallowed by utter darkness, Big Boss and the rest of his watchdogs could barely see my wolf crawling closer to their respective spots. One by one, I dropped their bodies to the ground with their throats widely open or hearts ripped off. Until the one remained standing was the source of my utter madness. "What are you gonna do now, huh, Big Boss?" Unbeknownst to his knowledge, my wolf was talking to him a meter away from each other. "For the record, all your men just joined those skulls around. In due time, their skins will rot until nothing is left but bones." "You can't kill, you monster!" Big Boss forced the sound of his voice to turn into giggles even my wolf could sense his trembling arms and legs while holding his pistol. He kept turning around like a paranoid every time he can hear those tiny footsteps from my wolf shifting places. The worst part was that his pistol was already emptied with bullets. Funny, but the Big Boss wa
"Who said we are leaving Ghino?" Melissa suddenly laughed at me. She even extended her hand closer to me. "You've been through a lot these days, Nathan. You need to rest. Let Ghino do his part. It was part of the plan that he will be left behind." "No. I'd rather stay outside to wait for him. He said something to me that even made my wolf confused." Instead of reaching out to Melissa's hands, I rested my back against the wall of the private plane and waiter for Ghino to arrive. Melissa and Edwin exchanged helpless gazes before Edwin jumped out of the plane and joined me outside. But my restless thought was still locked up to Ghino. At least that was the first information that I know about him; his name. The fact that Melissa and Edwin put a timed bomb in the mouth of the passage, worried me the most what if Ghino could not make it out alive. My wolf still has a few things to ask about what meant by his statement. "Why? What did Ghino tell you before he let you go o
{Ghino'S POV} Part of me wanted to stay in the mansion for at least an hour to make it up for Nathan. Have had a few chit-chats with him since a few things happened between us lately. Not to mention the choosing game between me or Melissa. Yet, the one question that I need to answer is why he choose me instead of his mate. And as far as the news brought me, the two were secretly married before shit begins between us. He could not wait for the scheduled date for their wedding that was supposed to happen in a few days. His sudden decision has even made me completely feel confused. He married Melissa to be his better half, not just his mate. My wolf was pretty sure the surprising wedding is not about his duty as the prince anymore. Nathan has changed a lot since the day I broke up with him. He made up his decision. To mate and marry Melissa not by his duty, but because he realized that he loves Melissa more than me and my wolf. Needless to say, their utter swe
The next morning, I woke up very late but my entire body was feeling rejuvenated after having a 10-hour straight of sleep. I can sleep more than that since we still have a few days before the start of our classes. When I laid my eyes all over the corners of my apartment, my wolf could not sense my friends' scents. Perhaps they all went out last night after I jumped onto the bed in the middle of their discussion. My body was completely feeling exhausted last night to the point where my wolf did not notice what time everyone disappeared from my apartment. So, I grabbed my old phone since my new one was in Denver's possession. I'm not even sure if Denver was still using the phone or if he has already thrown it away when it was of no use to him. As soon as I got the chance to study the screen of my old phone, I immediately lifted half of my body and made sure I was seeing the right one. My new digits have sent me a few photos. Photos of Nathan and Melissa on one bed,
