Tangled With The Fated Mates 12| Intrusion
Reid hated Nira with every fiber of his being and now even more so. As he tore through the woods in his wolf form, his fur became longer than usual, and the wind carried a lousy odor right into his susceptible nose, which he knew was emitting from him. The stench of being a rogue, he could smell it already, and any werewolf who came close to him would be able to smell it, too. The wound Denzel had left him on his face would not be healing anytime soon because an alpha did it. He kept feeling like Denzel was right behind him. Knowing better, he was doomed to have that scar for life. It seemed like the banishment was just a show-off, and the actual punishment, which he believed was death, was yet to be delivered. Since his intentions were still what they were, only intents, Denzel couldn't have been able to kill him. Technically, he had yet to commit any crime, so being kicked out was what the law would permit Denzel to do. Unfortunately, the elders didn't have this privilege, so Denzel

Matt came out of the car, intending to close the garage doors and enter the house, when he received a call. He picked on the third ring." Hello?""Matt, why are you not in the office today?""It's a long story. If you want me to come in, I can. And I'll explain to you when I get there, boss", said Matt in a placating voice."Just hurry up. Your clients are here, and Jon is out. He could have taken them for the house inspection if he was around, so you see where that leaves me?"Matt groaned inwardly. Bosses would always be bosses, and his boss was no different. "Yes, boss.""Good. See you soon then." A final click that signified the call was over.Matt, a real estate agent, sighed and considered whether to enter the house and go upstairs to let Janey know he was leaving for work or if he should join the car and back out of the garage to go straight to work. He was well dressed for it anyway, with proper shoes. He looked down at his body, trying to verify his judgment of his appearance

Denzel got home to find Nira cladded in her nightwear. She hugged him tightly and kissed him all over his face, knowing how difficult the whole day must've been for him.He shuddered under her embrace as she whispered her famous five words, "It's going to be okay."When Denzel had woken up that morning, he never would've guessed that he would learn of this most trusted friend's betrayal, and neither would he have seen that the day would end with their friendship. They pulled out of the hug, and Denzel flopped onto a sofa."I went after him," Denzel blurted out. "Though, I hesitated for some time. I guess some part of me wanted him to escape.""Aww, you've always had a huge heart." Nira sat next to him, taking his hands into hers. "Don't regret your actions tonight. You made the right call at every point. If Denzel is foolish enough to come back, I'm pretty sure you would be able to defeat him. And then you won't feel bad about killing him because you gave him a chance."Denzel's lips

Claudine cried like she never had before after they had all left her. The left side of her head throbbed severely, and her forehead felt hot to her touch. Her tongue sat like a woolen piece of dried cloth in her mouth, and Claudine knew she'd sell one of her pinky fingers for water at that moment. The last time she had felt this way was when her best friend, Eleana, died from internal bleeding. She had fallen from a tree when she had gone on a rebellious adventure with some of the other girls. She had gotten up, patted herself down, and felt that she was alright except for some minor abdominal pain. However, it was too late when the part-time nurse who came to the orphanage twice a week discovered the anomaly.Claudine remembered that day like it just happened last week. She had held Eleana's hands in the makeshift infirmary at the orphanage, which was just a used room with a couple of bunkers thrown in together. Elena had died in so much pain. A dark, dirty bruise had stained her ex

"Hurt?" Denzel asked, his eyebrows furrowed. He adjusted on the seat, and Nira approached the couch to sit by him. Nira put her arms around him and stared longingly into his eyes."Yes, Denzel, hurt," she repeated. "I fear for her safety."Witches and werewolves had quite an exciting relationship. While they were not exactly the best friends or comrades-in-arms, they relied on each other sometimes. Witches understood the earth, every essence of the fabric that held it together, and so could manipulate it, bend it to their will; Werewolves looked up to the moon, used the lunar energy to charge themselves up, and significantly increased their strengths. But they each had weaknesses, and the need arose sometimes to seek the other's help. So when Ezrianna showed up on their doorstep, needing a place to stay and protection, Denzel knew what she was immediately and, by his lupine nature, felt a need to render help as he could. He assigned a cabin that was within the boundaries of thei

Claudine first heard the menacing and lethal hiss of the cat before she spotted it crouched in the corner of the room. Although it lay on its belly, it appeared ready for attack, prepared to pounce and seize one of the rats scurrying about. Claudine hushed herself as she observed the cat hiss even more strongly, bare its teeth, and then leap, successfully capturing one of the rats. With sharp canines, it tore its prey into pieces, extracting every last bit of life and vitality from it.The room transformed in an instant. The scared rats vanished like ghosts, leaving behind an eerie stillness. Claudine surveyed the aftermath, struck by the sudden silence that enveloped the room, though the strong smell of rat pee lingered.Balancing on the worktop table, she contemplated her next move. Descending seemed unwise, for the cat's intentions remained unknown. Her eyes never left the feline form at the room's center, now engrossed in licking his furs, an oddly serene juxtaposition to the

Denzel stopped in his tracks. He and Ezrianna exchanged curious looks. The knock came again. This time, it sounded persistent."Who's there?" Ezrianna said.Denzel did not wait for an answer. He opened the door, determined to face whatever or whoever lay ahead as he did. Standing in front of him with a nervous look on his face was Ronald. He must've masked his scent, so Denzel didn't pick it up instantly. While other werewolves gained popularity by being loud, brash, and overbearing, Ronald was more famous for being restrained and thoughtful. When he gave commands, it was with a particular kindness that endeared him to everybody. When Denzel saw him standing by the door, the fear that had begun to build up in his heart dissipated."Ahh, Ronald, it's just you," he said, taking a deep breath. "Relax, Ezrianna, it's only Ronald."Ezrianna approached the door, and she and Ronald exchanged knowing smiles."Hi there, Ronnie," she said to him, winking."Hi, Ezrianna," he replied.Denzel
Tangled With The Fated Mates 19| Shattered Reflection
Claudine's sleep was filled with wild dreams, tossing and turning like a ship in a storm. In one dream, she wandered through a dark forest with Lumos, her loyal companion. It was nearly evening, but the thick trees blocked most of the sunlight. Suddenly, she heard a mysterious giggle."Hello?" she called out, but there was only silence, no rustling leaves or chirping birds.As she walked on, the voice returned. Claudine saw a figure darting quickly to her right. Their eyes met, and the person's face lit up with mischief. She picked up her pace to follow.Getting closer, she reached out to touch the person, but it was just a tree. Perplexed, she stood in front of it, finger pressed against the rough bark.Then, a loud noise, like a door being slammed, jolted her awake."It was just a dream," she sighed. But the noise continued as if someone was trying to break in.Claudine sat up, rubbing her tired eyes. She gently massaged her temples, the throbbing slowly fading.Finally, the door c
