Till tomorrow, readers!
The taxi rattles along the empty road, headlights cutting through the darkness as we left the city behind. My phone buzzes on my hand, and I look down to see more messages from the wild rogue.‘’Keep heading north on county road 86.’’ I read out the messages to the taxi driver. ‘’There should be a new turn somewhere, take it.’’The taxi driver glances at me through the rearview mirror, his eyebrows furrowing slightly at my words, but said nothing.Minutes stretch like hours before a new turn appears on the way, the road barely lit by a single streetlamp.*Where to next?*I send another message to the wild rogue as the taxi driver found the new turn, the vehicle jolting over potholes and the sound of gravel crunching underneath the tyres.After sending that message, I go over my chat with Jared, still finding no reply from him yet. He had requested for the phone number the Rogue Alpha had used to communicate with me, the same number I have been using to communicate with the wild rogue n
‘’Selena wait.’’Right after the call ended, I did not waste time in leaving the Alpha’s office. Jared tried to stop me on the way out, but I ignored him.Outside the pack house during the sunset, he quickly blocked my path.‘’Out of my way.’’ I glare at him.‘’You can’t go to him without a plan.’’‘’Seriously?’’ I scoff at his words. ‘’Our pup is either dead or alive and all you care about is some stupid plan!’’‘’What if he kills you?’’‘’Then I die as long as the two omegas bring Lucian back alive.’’ I tell him without hesitation. Lucian’s safety was all that mattered to me and nothing else.Not even my own life.‘’What if no one makes it back alive, Selena?’’ He carries on.‘’Stop being negativity here, Jared.’’ I nearly yell because his words were becoming more and more infuriating. ‘’This is our son’s life we’re talking about.’’How could he say that Lucian might not make it back alive?‘’I am trying to be rational here.’’ He defends his words.‘’Well, your so-called rationality
‘’Have you gotten anything yet?’’ On the edge of my seat, I ask Jared for the umpteenth time in the alpha’s office of the pack house. It’s been thirty minutes since I arrived at the office, and it’s almost 6:00pm on the dot. Lucian’s circumstances were still unknown and that made me very anxious to the core.‘’...Nothing yet, Selena.’’ He replies from his own seat.‘’Well, are you trying enough?” I was already frustrated that Jared has been telling me nothing yet for the past hours.‘’I have informed the elder council and other packs, Selena.’’ He tells me. ‘’No one has called back, yet.’’‘’Then we should just do nothing and wait?!’’‘’......’’I let out a small scoff at his silence that pretty much answered my question. I was very upset that we were doing absolutely nothing, and just waiting for any call, while Lucian was somewhere goddess knows where.Before now, the pack members had called for Jared under my orders, and I explained everything to him starting from Lucian’s school b
Fortunately, the house wasn’t too far from the pack’s elementary school. Gazes and whispers poured my way from the pack members as usual, and some of them stepped forward to ask Evelyn if everything was alright like I was threatening her or something, but I just didn’t care about them at the moment.*Knock**Knock*Evelyn knocked a door to one of the houses here. A moment later, the door swings open and a familiar face comes out.Tiffany?I was a bit taken back to know that this was her house.Was the sick classmate her son?But it does not seem like she’s marked, judging from her clear neck.Tiffany glances my way for a moment.‘’How can I can help you?’’ She asks Evelyn.‘’Miss Tiffany—‘’‘’Is Lucian here?’’ I cut in, not patient enough for the pleasantries. ‘’Miss Evelyn says the future Alpha came here with a sick classmate and I want to know if he’s still here.’’Tiffany holds my gaze for a moment.‘’He left some time ago.’’ She replies.What?Lucian left some time ago?Why did I f
Tears blurred my vision as I clutch the letter in my trembling hand, shaky breath escaping my lips. I read these four letters over and over again with the papers getting soaked from my tears.Sienna did this?She did this to me?That Sienna betrayed me this much, and not only me, everyone in the pack!She lied that night, and I actually thought she was the innocent one out of this. I never expressed my hate once for her because I felt she did not deserve the unjustified hate. I might have expressed my complicated feelings towards her, but never hate.And now, I get this?I get this for not doubting her?These heart-shattering secrets from her?!Mine wasn’t even the least of it. She had deceived everyone in the pack and worst of all, Jared.Their pup, or rather Sienna and the Rogue Alpha’s pup.Jared didn’t even know the pup wasn’t his. I am certain he has never suspected once. Even I never suspected she could have done something like this.The night passes on, but I remain awake, readi
*I sensed him outside the border during a sleepover and I secretly went there. I was very disappointed to find that he was a rogue at first, but I didn’t mind, Selena. He was my mate, the one I have been dreaming of for many years.I even planned to migrate from the pack to the human society with him after school like other pack members with their rogue mates. I knew our parents would support any decision of my choice.If you remember, I had sleepovers at Emma’s or Blaire’s many times at some point. I was meeting him secretly in the forest under the guise of sleepovers.A border warrior was my accomplice because I told him about my rogue mate. He promised to hide my secret until I told everyone and helped me in meeting my mate.We talked. We laughed. We explored the forest in our werewolves together. Everything was perfect and so magical like a dream come true, Selena. I told him everything about myself and family, and he told me about himself. A rogue born from another rogue, and wor
