My chest squirmed as Claude continued filling the room with creepy laughter. Fenris let go of my hand and walked nearer to Claude, quickly, he punched Claude's abdomen."What's funny, huh?!" Fenris gritted his teeth and punched him again.I swallowed deeply before I grabbed Fenris' arms and pulled him slightly away from Claude. The laughter finally faded, but Claude's eyes were still on me while he was smirking like a creepy guy across the street."What are you smiling at?!" Fenris almost hit him again, but I tightened my grip on his arm. He looked at me and tried to pull away."Fenris, come on," I whispered. "We went here just to talk, not to be aggressive or something." He puffed a breath and pulled his arm away from my grip again. I let go, and he fixed his polo before stroking his hair stressfully."As I told you, he's not going to talk. He's a loyalist." Fenris gritted his teeth. "We've been torturing him, and we got nothing but a waste of time. I'm done with him. Now, if you wa
Days went so fast, and the moment I wasn't really excited about arrived. I sighed while looking at my reflection in the mirror, starting at the glittering, royal blue long gown I was wearing,Fenris hugged me from behind and kissed my neck. "You're stunning." His warm breath travelled on my nape with his soft voice.I smiled before putting on my diamond earrings. My gown was long sleeves, but the neckline was really low, revealing my cleavage. I shivered as the cold wind travelled on my skin. Although I was immune to the weather, I still would get shocked every time the wind would whoosh through our window.I asked Fenris if I could just stay in the mansion. Talking to strangers, especially to werewolf strangers, didn't really become my hobby. I was still somehow getting intimidated by others, especially the ones older than me.A limousine drove us to the venue, a mansion owned by one of the wealthiest werewolves in the country. I looked around the place as we entered the palace. Alth
"You've been wanting to dance. Fine, love." I trailed my fingers over his clear cheek. "I would love to."He laughed. "Oh, come on! We both know you love dancing with me. I'm just doing you a favour.""Oh, shut up!" I scoffed while we were approaching the dance floor with our intertwined hands. We bumped into some partners, dancing until we finally found a space where we could freely move around.He rested the palms of his hand on my lower back. He tightened my grip on me, making my torso flush against his. Our smiles could reach the cloud nine as our eyes continued glittering, shinier than the chandeliers above us."You still don't wanna attend this party?" He asked in a low voice.I chuckled while I gripped my hands on his nape. "Well, it isn't that bad at all.""Of course. I wouldn't bring you here if I knew it would just be a boring party. Life is tiring." He leaned over my head, feeling his lips on the tip of my ear. "But I don't want you getting constantly drained, so I want you
Fenris raised his right brow. "You're talking about me?" "Oh, it's not important." Nazarus shrugged his hand. "Don't think too much about it."My lips thinned when Fenris glared at me. "What?" I arched a brow. "I just told him you don't like plucking the flowers in the garden."Fenris looked at the flower in my hand. I thought he was going to get it to me, but he just turned his gaze back at Fenris."What it is with the flowers that you're always giving to my wife, huh?"Nazarus raised both of his hands as if surrendering. "Just a nice gesture, calm down.""Nice gesture." Fenris scoffed. "Bullshit.""Fenris." I cleared my throat."Anyway, Fenris," Nazarus uttered. "It's perfect timing that you're here. I have to discuss something with you."Fenris' brows crossed, and so mine."About what?"Nazarus glanced at the mansion. "Can we talk inside?""Why? Can't you discuss that here?" Fenris sounded more disgusted yet intrigued.Naz looked around. "You won't wanna risk someone hearing our
Slowly, the estranged man opened his eyes and quickly met mine. "You're gonna die… you're all going to die…." His huge black pupils trembled on my chest. I took a deep breath as my chest tightened.Fenris kicked the man before he stepped on his chest. "Don't listen to him." He tightened the grip of his feet on the man's chest, stiffening the Dark Summoners' human body."What do you want from us, huh?!"The man smiled strangely and slowly, he chuckled like a devil. "You're all gonna die…." He breathed out before coughing after Fenris squeezed his chest more with his feet."Fuck you! You're the one who's going to die today." Fenris grabbed his dagger and sliced the Dark Summoner's head off. I flinched and stepped back as the blood splashed everywhere. I covered my mouth. I was used to seeing brutality, but I couldn't still stop to be shocked at times."Why did you kill him? We could get information—""Do you think he will say something?" Fenris cut me off. "Think of him as Claude. He wi
Nazarus just shrugged and started walking to the exit of the mansion. He looked back at me and gestured to me to follow him. I rolled my eyes before walking. I watched Nazarus back while walking. It was only at that time I noticed how neat and elegant he walked. Every step of him was really careful — I laughed at the thought of why we waste our time walking if we could just teleport. Fenris's deep gaze met mine when we reached the gate. "What did you do?* His brows crossed at Nazarus.I snaked my arm over Fenris' arm. "Where are we going?" I asked.Fenris remained to stare at Naz. Naz laughed and shook his head. "Chill! I went to the restroom and walked past her in the living room.""Where are we going, Fenris?" I asked again.Fenris finally looked at me. "You'll see."I rolled my eyes before looking at Nazarus. "Where are we going, Naz?""You'll see." He mocked Fenris.Fuck them!I crossed my arms over my chest and just followed them. We walked for a few minutes until we reached M
We arrived in the woods right on time while the Sun was about to rise. Good thing, the soldiers arrived earlier than us. They seemed responsible and dedicated to their tasks. We stayed near the river for a couple of hours. Fenris had been discussing something with the soldiers. They were plotting a plan while I was on the lookout for the busy group. Surprisingly, no Dark Summoners attempted to attack us. I was quite anticipating the action now, but perhaps it really was better for them not to attack or anything. The damage they could cause was too much, for sure.Since we saw no sign of attack, Fenris and I decided to go back to the mansion. He instructed the leader to inform us once anything unfortunate occurred. While we walked our way back to our house, the soldiers stayed in the woods as it was one of their duty — to guard and observe the forest.The next day was a really bad day for me. I work up without Fenris on my side. Since my body was so heavy and even my eyes, I didn't no
I swallowed deeply, convincing myself they were nothing but friends just like me and Nazarus — come on!"Yes, my cousins are regaining their strengths, thankfully."I cleared my throat before I stood properly and composed myself. My elbows hit some leaves, and I immediately noticed how quickly their eyes turned into me. "Oh, Kira!" Atasha chuckled awkwardly. "My cousins would want to give you and your mother this." She handed me two necklaces with a fang pendant."Really?" I still couldn't figure out how to interact with her. I never wanted to be fake or plastic or whatever they call it. "Yes, they've been planning to come here, but they are still regenerating their strengths — maybe next week they could thank you personally.""Oh, that's nice." I grabbed the necklaces from her soft hand. "Tell your cousins not to worry, and we appreciate their gifts and their gratitude." I glanced at Fenris, and he slightly smiled at me. My lips just thinned.I wanted to ask what they were talking
