We kept running and running without looking back. I don’t know where Thorne is going to keep us but anywhere in this forest is dangerous. Selene found us and she killed Apollo using her own pawns. I don’t know what to feel other than anger. Apollo wasn’t nice but he is still my father and my wrath only grows bigger for knowing that Selene planned all of this.
Thorne stopped and looked around us. He turned around while panting heavily and I did the same. The tall trees and green leaves surround us. Our heavy breathing echoes into the place until he grab my hand and run forward deeper into the forest.
The Gibbous twin are behind us, trailing and running after us. None of us talked until we reach the end of the forest and saw ourselves being transported into Apollo’s den. This is Thorne’s power but even in this place isn’t safe anymore as the place looks like a shattered den.
Things are scattered everywhere, walls had cracks and
Anger and grief are just some of the emotions that I am feeling right now. The uncertainty of what happened and the wavering of my heart, like there, is a tall wave of the ocean inside of my heart, colliding in each wall causing for it to clench in a scrutiny painful way.Mist smokes of the grey clouds rolls above me. A depressing call of nature as I grief over Thorne and Apollo. What happened to them is utterly disappointed and unbelievable. How can nature allow them to die in that pitiful way? How can the moon goddess kill her own brother and own niece? The family that she only has except for me?Nevertheless, she did. Thorne and Apollo are already dead because of her greediness in power and revenge. Inside of my heart, there is a sour emotion of guilt for their life. I could have been prevented it from happening…if only…if only I am strong enough to defeat her.I felt a tiny pain in my palm as I saw how blood drips from my fresh wo
The glass dropped out of my hands. Shattered pieces illuminate the reflection of the fire and the moonlight as well as the shocked faces of the three of us.None of us moves. Not even Alpha Antonio who just figure out what does the sword means. A shade of illumination drops from the vastness of the dark that surrounds us.“ Devon,” Alpha Nicholas said, his voice is strained with nothing but fear and sudden surprise. I blink and blink tremendously because my mind is swept with emptiness.A great amount of force is conveying in every vein of my body, both of the Gibbous twins is a blur in my eye sight until I felt smooth lips smooching into my own, bringing me back to life.There, I saw it. A cluster of light appeared into my own palm, too blinding even in naked eyes. The domineering effect of the light made me shudder out of fear. It makes me lose my ability to think and I know why.The sword of decadence has something to do with it. I j
Anger fills over the place as I watched myself being tied into a tremendous amount of chain encircles into my whole body like I am some kind of animal. Wild animals to be specific.Ara is silently sitting in front of me. Elegantly sitting while wiping the swords using her own hands and inclining it, testing the sharpness of the sword of decadence with her own hands.I look over to my sides and silently wish I hadn’t. Alpha Nicholas and Alpha Antonio are both beside me, oblivious about what is happening. Of course, they are oblivious because they are unconscious.“ The goddess is awake,” Ara mocked. Her tone of annoyance stained her pitchy voice with bitterness and sour feeling.For a moment, I thought Ara is an accomplice of Apollo. I thought she will help us but then I am a fool to even believe that there is something good about her. She is easily encouraged and blinded by power. A puppet witch for masters like Alpha Gerri and Apollo.
Alpha Nicholas muffles his groan of annoyance as he curse Ara and his own twin. A part of him wanted to get out of the chains and strangle his twin brother because of his past lovers. And all this time, I was just finding something in my head to come up with a solution.“ Shut the fuck up, Nicholas,” I commanded because of how annoying his grunts are. A whistle echoes into a room, providing the proud face of Alpha Antonio, teasing his twin brother.It was an effective command. Alpha Nicholas stops his groans and cursing. I don’t know that their will come a time where I will have this enough courage to actually scold him. But the situation that we are in provides greater emotion.Ara is going to give us to the moon goddess. She’s trading us for her own freedom. I don’t know what deal she made with that dark goddess but its making me crumble into my feet out of fear. I know that Apollo and Thorne believes in me, heck, they even gave u
Alpha Antonio chuckles because of his twin’s words but this isn’t the time for us to tease each other. I tugged him in his arms and look at this cold solitary that Ara put us. The four rough corners of walls and one visible doorway out of this place.Both of them sandwich me in their side, guarding me as we walk fast into the door. However, luck isn’t on our side. The moment that Alpha Nicholas walks closer to the door is the moment where Ara and Selene appeared.We are bewildered by our attempt to escape but Selene is more than happy to see us. As elegant as she can be, she clapped her hands and catches my gaze. She then looks at the two alpha beside me, in their fighting instance, using their bodies as shields to protect me from her dark behavior.“ Oh well, you’re almost close to losing the deal,” Selene muttered to Ara who said nothing but a grunt. Her hands travel down to Alpha Antonio’s hands and to m
“ Antonio! What the hell?! Your twin brother is still there, bleeding….how can….you leave him like that---” I shouted and struggles to get out of Alpha Antonio’s grip once we travel into an unknown street. It’s a dull alley with nothing but rough walls.He sneered at my words before he tightens his grip on my hand and drag me into one of the narrow paths. I don’t even know where we are. Ara brought us to an abandoned place but that isn’t my concern at all. My concern is Alpha Nicholas who’s bleeding out there at the mercy of the moon goddess.“ You fucking left him!” I shouted once again, getting the attention of Alpha Antonio. He turned around and stopped walking.His heavy breathing fills the air as he looked at me with nothing but weariness. “Do you think it is easy for me to walk away, Devon?” he said in a strained voice.The orbs of his eyes diluted with darkness. &
Alpha Antonio collapsed under my body. His sweats scattered into my naked body. It’s our fourth time in the night, his heavy breathing echoes along the walls of this room. Without giving him enough space to breathe, I caught his lips and suck into them making him pant out of breath. I rolled out our body and he let out a quick breath, his eyes wandering at me, on top of him.“Let’s fuck again,” I said as I began to ride him in an instant. My body felt sore and aching but I needed him.“ Damn,” he groaned. Alpha Antonio adjusted his position in the bed. His hands are underneath his heads, serving their purpose as his pillow while I am on top of his naked body, pumping him inside of me. His eyes closed into a thin line, mouth gaping open as he let me drive him crazy. “ You’re insatiable, Devon. Let’s stop for a moment,” he groaned. He already got off for how many times this night but I don’t think, I
A squeaking sound echoes along with the darkness of our room, as I heard the door opening, it makes the clutch tighter into the sheets covering my body. My fist is gripping the thin sheets of clothing as if my life depends on it.Despite that, a part of me wanted to run into Alpha Antonio’s arm and ask him about it. To make him explain about what I saw earlier. My quest about trailing him stopped the moment that I saw him willingly claiming her lips.My heart cannot take that image out of my memory. It made my body cold and stilled to the point that I cannot take any step further whilst I saw them fading away from my sight.I just stand there and watch him walk away with our enemy. A Series of questions popped into my mind, shattering and pulverizing all of the pieces of what was left inside me.Why is he kissing our enemy? Why isn’t he searching for Alpha Nicholas? And lastly, why is he lying to me?I can forgive anything
