CHAPTER 19
A single ray of sun sneaked through the curtains to harass Selena’s face. Her once pitch-black vision is now reddened. She slowly blinked open her eyes. Another morning–only today, she is a werewolf. She sat up on Daisy’s bed, and stretched her body till her limbs are weak and loose, demotivating her to take a bath. After a forced, long hot shower and dressing up in blue jeans and a black t-shirt, she went downstairs.
At those last steps, a series of doors shut made her wonder what is happening outside. She strolled over to the front door to see Orion loading luggage and they are all dressed up casually, ready to leave. Climate took a drastic change as dark clouds gathered, about to pour down any minute now. Selena’s heartbeat shot up, accompanied by her widening eyes. Zaden's words came around, stabbing her in the mid-chest. 'You are to go oKaugnay na kabanata
SINFUL LOVE CHAPTER 20
Weeks have gone by–3 weeks and 2 days to be precise. Nothing has changed much for the 3 of them. Selena didn’t attend her graduation. She took the certificate from Dean Pete and continued working at Wildlife Research Centre. Her mood doesn’t seem to have changed much. Every day, she will go to work, come back home, eat and sleep–living a robotic life despite her friend's effort to cheer her up. The career that she loved once doesn’t give her joy anymore. It seems like the moment Grandpa Kai asked her the promise, her life fell apart and a dark curse engulfed her. It wasn’t any better at Mount Manuka. Zaden and Orion rarely talked and Makeala became the second beta to substitute her big brother during his absence. Zaden kept himself locked up in the second-floor room most of the time. No one is allowed into the room and cleaning is prohibited. Most of his essential belong

The sun's beam raises humidity. The village slowly gains life, hustling in their own patch of land while Selena is still bundled in Zaden's duvet. He smiled at the view before changing his dress and going out for his usual run. Taking her own sweet time, Selena woke up and dragged her heavy feet to her room, took a bath, and got ready as usual. She learned during breakfast that there will be a meeting in the communal room and her attendance is made compulsory. Makeala seemed very nice and informative, willing to help the newcomer. Selena also learned that she is the second beta, while Orion, her brother, is the beta of the pack or technically an advisor to the alpha. Her job is to be helpful to beta. Sitka and Xavier are deltas, they take care of territory and the ill one in the pack. Makeala found her mate a few years back, one of the pack members as well, Nelson and she has a daug

A light tap on her shoulder ruffles her slumber.“Selena, come on, time for your training” Zaden, ready for his morning run.“Hmm…. five more minutes,” she said in a low, husky voice before turning the opposite side and coiling up“Selena… it's already 5 am. Wake up,” Zaden said sternly. She sprang up to sit“Zaden, you are a psycho!!!” she stated calmly and fall back to bed. He rolled his eye and grabbed her by the waist, pulling her towards him“Za…den…I only slept at 3 am…please…” he already pulled her out of the bed, into his arms, in a bridal position. She snuggled into his chest, earning a low growl. His body warmth isn’t helping at all as she snoozed a bit more.“What were you doing till 3?” he questioned, already reaching from under Selena to twist the bathroom doorknob“Talking with Ori

Zaden was pacing left and right in front of Grandpa Kai who has settled comfortably on a couch“I’m telling you. Thank god, I send the others away. I don’t think the boys would have had that much self-control in them” veins pulsing on his temple. Grandpa Kai placed a finger on his lips as he narrowed his eyes at him, quietly observing the pacing madman.“I mean, she is supposed to tame animals, not enrage them!!!” he continued after a pause while Grandpa Kai observed their Alpha getting anxious over a girl– for the first time.“Would you say something?” Zaden is now venting“Are you hiding something from me?” Grandpa Kai cocked an eyebrow. Zaden froze in his steps and shrugged his shoulders to the question. “Something important, perhaps. About Selena?” His head slowly trailed to the f

With a mission in hand, Selena headed straight to her room. She slammed the chocolate bar on the table before pacing back and forth for a few minutes. Weighing her options. Determination took over her as she wrung her hand and feet, mentally prepared. She then locked the door and took off her dress. Wispy air that went unnoticed before tingled across her naked, exposed skin. Goosebumps prick along her upper arm. She slowly paced to the window but came to a stop when a single hum of a nightingale made her doubt her fake willpower. Before she could recover and push herself further, a knock on the door sends her into a trembling mess. Bouncing left-right, she wrapped a blanket around her chest and opened the door–just a bit though. As usual, Zaden was leaning on the door frame. His eyes widened at the sight of Selena wrapped in a blanket. Messy hair, pink powdered cheeks, her shoulder reflecting a beam
SINFUL LOVE CHAPTER 25
Vigilance is the game plan today. To avoid being dumped into the bathtub again, Selena woke up early. In order to make the day much smoother and possibly laced with a bit of mercy from the Alpha, she made 2 sets of poached egg and bread toast. After scanning through the house looking for her, Zaden finally caught her shuffling in the kitchen.“Well, well, well…Look who is up? You learn fast!!!” he sat down and took a bite of toast in front of him, assuming it was for him.“That’s not for you!!!” she crossed her hand over her chest and cocked her eyebrow. Zaden darted around.“Then who is it for?” Selena stiffened as she has no answer for that. Cornered, she decide to answer him by sticking out her tongue and sitting down to eat. They manage to go a little bit further before Selena breaks down, again, but at
SINFUL LOVE CHAPTER 26
Clamours and mutters filled the house as both familiar and unfamiliar faces hustled and bustled around, preparing for the full moon. The need for it to be perfect etched in each of their faces. Not a speck of dust. No stain on the windows. No rugs or ornaments left in store. A she-wolf busting her ass to polish the silver wears while another tries to balance strawberries to be perfectly centered on the cupcake's icing. Zaden has announced it to be a special full moon and if so, they will tolerate no slips and slides. The resting miniature flour mill in Selena's guts began churning again and Orion sensed her“Relax, would you?” he bumped his shoulder to her’s. She managed to muster up a smile. All the other training has been postponed for today, which is a win for her by itself.“Selena, dear, I need your help…” Mother Ruth rushes from behind, flu
SINFUL LOVE CHAPTER 27
Paws thud through the forest floor. A cold breeze brawled against them as the beast in her hand sprinted through each tree in its way, kicking up a series of dried debris into the air. The wolf’s pants huffed in an upbeat rhythm. Despite all the commotion, Selena could only hear her heartbeat, drumming loud in her ears. Tears rolled down the corner of her eyes, swept away with the wind, as her body ached so much, and she is losing her strength to hold on. “Zaden…” she whispered. Her voice diffused in the whooshing wind but Zaden heard her with his wolf’s hearing ability. He pushed as much as he can. Her knuckles limp, grip loosening just in time for their destination.
