Tangled With The Fated Mates 10| Pained Alpha
Denzel frowned as he swerved to avoid a cyclist, damn cyclists.“I really should focus on the road more.” He breathed. The problem wasn’t that he had difficulty driving at night. Even under the limited light of the waning full moon, he could see more than enough to be aware of his surroundings, and he wasn’t new to driving. His father had taught him to drive just after he’d clocked fifteen. He’d gotten his license the week after he’d turned eighteen, and now, at twenty-five years old, he’d been driving for about ten years, so he could drive with headlamps at night like he breathed air, so having to drive with headlamps was not the problem either. The problem was that he was too preoccupied with his many tumultuous thoughts to focus on the present continuous task of driving, but how could he not be absent-minded?From the moment Nira had spoken her vision to him till the present, his mind had gone into turmoil, thinking about the numerous “whys.” “Why would Reid want to kill him?” “

Home, the four-lettered word that all the kids back at the orphanage pronounced with a wistful tone thought Claudine. She closed her eyes and couldn't quite put her emotions into words. She could still feel Ariella's eyes on her now and again, but she determinedly looked out of her window for the rest of the trip. She hadn't joined in the minimal conversation after being picked up from the forest either.It took another while before the car started to slow down. Claudine, who had briefly lost track of time, finally dragged her eyes away from her window to see what lay ahead."Here we are! We're home, Bawdy", cried Ariella in staged ecstasy as she mimicked performing a drum roll with her hands.Claudine had cringed when she heard the obscene name that Ariella had chosen to call her. It didn't help that she yelled the name with so much relish and that her parents let her do that without reprimand.The Zaynader's house was an elegant one-story building with an adjoining quarter with white

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
