I swallowed deeply, feeling like I was being melted by everyone's stares. "Then go on! Spill it!" I shouted to Fenris. What is so important that he needs to grab everyone's attention? My God! His hands were still holding the wire net. "Why are you walking away?!" "What?!" My brows crossed. "That's what you're gonna say?! That's the important thing you want me to hear right now?!""Yes! Why?! This battle is for you! I win this for you! Don't you walk away just like that without even waiting for me!" My lips thinned as my heart glittered until my eyes landed on Atasha who was looking at me with a slight smile on his face. That was when it hit me; something punched my chest so loud that it echoed my whole nerves. I bet he was just trying to make Atasha jealous by using me. I swallowed deeply.I looked around at the people gossiping, whispering while looking at me. I gasped before I looked back at Fenris."For me?!" My voice turned out sarcastic. "Oh thank you for that huh! And congr
I was out of breath when he parted our lips. He then pulled me outside the paradise. I was speechless with my trembling hand that he was holding tightly until we reached the white and pink flowers, the peaceful garden in the Circus.In the middle of the garden, there was a huge statue of a woman and in front of that was a wishing well. The water from the well was falling from the statue's hands. A beautiful fountain that seemed to be portraying a woman with magical power through the water coming from her.We sat on a cemented chair, admiring the view of the fountain with butterflies wandering around. Silence succumbed to us but it was a beautiful silence that felt so peaceful while he was caressing my hair with his fingers. We weren't looking at each other but the connection between us was like a lightning striking our hearts together. "Why did you try to walk away?" he broke the silence as he rested his arm around my shoulders. My body hair tingled.I didn't glance at him but damn,
"Sorry, we have no time for this." Fenris held my hand and was about to pull me when Nazarus blocked our way."Woah! Chill!" Naz raised his hand while laughing. "I just wanna have a conversation with my friend." He emphasized the word 'friend'."I already talked to you about her, Naz." Fenris' voice was deeper, way more serious than ever."It's not enough. I want to have a word from her." Naz put his hands in his pockets.I looked at Fenris. "It's okay, Fenris. I can manage.""Then talk now." Fenris rolled his eyes; here came his impatient face. "Naz---" I swallowed deeply, I couldn't look at his eyes for so long. "I'm here because---""I know why."My eyes widened. I looked at Fenris and he seemed to not be shocked at all. My brows crossed at him. I thought no one should know it except us."Don't worry, Kira, I'll keep it a secret." He chuckled. "No big deal. I just wish I heard the incident from you, not from him." He glanced at Fenris."You think I can tell you that so easily? It'
My brows were still furrowed as I sat back on the cemented chair and so did Fenris. I looked at him and he seemed to be not confused at all with his usual poker face."What is he talking about?" I asked."Bullshits." He shrugged.I slapped his shoulder. "Seriously, Fenris! What was that all about? Powerful creature, me? We have secrets? Where is he getting all that?""I don't know. All I know is don't trust any of his words."I gasped. "He said he's not the enemy.""And you believe that?" He raised his right brow."Yes." People changed and I knew Nazarus made a mistake but that shouldn't define who he is in the present.He rolled his eyes. "You need more training. I'm gonna talk to beta Jacob and---""No. You're my trainer, right? Don't give me away.""Yet you seem to be not taking my words seriously. Maybe Jacob will somehow make you listen.""I'm taking your words seriously, master." The word master sounded sarcastic. "It's just that, I have my own opinions and I just wanna express
My heart kept on racing fast I witnessed people getting attacked by some humanoid species as we aim for the exit."Oh my God!" My knees almost fell as they trembled, seeing a woman getting her head ripped.My head was spinning around. Everything was fast and hard to absorb while Fenris was still dragging my wrist."Kira, stop looking around! Focus your eyes in our direction!""But---" I looked around again; the lively Circus had become a disaster. "Fenris, we have to do something!""Yes! We have to get out of this place!""No, I mean we need to help them." I looked around. "They need help!"Fenris couldn't even dare to look around. He just shook his head. "We can't, Kira. We're not ready!" he said before pulling me again.As we rush our feet, we bumped into Jacob who was running as well. My eyes widened at the blood on his shirt and part of his shoulder."What the hell is going on?!" Jacob was catching his breath."The Dark Summoners are starting to attack. No one can freeze their pow
Fenris bowed his head as he gasped before meeting my eyes again. "You would know it. You would feel it. For now, I suggest you take a rest first. It has been a long day."My shoulders dropped but I just nodded at him. I was drained from everything and I didn't know how to be composed anymore, knowing that we could have done something to save the people but we didn't, because we weren't prepared.Before I went inside the mansion, I overheard Fenris telling Nazarus to go and leave Moonlight Claws territory. As being Nazarus, he teased Fenris first before he leave the territory with a smirk on his face.I just shook my head in disbelief. I couldn't imagine Nazarus, living here before. Hundred years ago, he was welcomed here. He used to serve here but now, he couldn't even stay here for at least one hour because he turned himself into a vampire. Maybe the saying was true, love will make you do things you thought you aren't capable of.I fell asleep, still with the tragic events flashing o
Fenris didn't utter a word. He just looked up like he was seeking an answer from above. I also stared at the high ceiling and it just made me dizzy. I blinked multiple times before I turned my gaze back at him."Fenris." I gulped as I massaged his shoulder. "Everything okay?" I asked again.He met my eyes and worries glittered on his eyeballs. "No. Everything is not okay." He gasped as he put his palms on his face. "Fuck! I have no idea what's going on."My lips thinned. I held his arms and slowly removed his palms from his face. I met his glittering eyes and all I could see was sadness. I massaged his cheek, wiping it like there were tears on it. I knew he wanted to cry but he was stopping himself. I could feel his heart aching through his eyes."Fenris, I don't know what Gonzalo told you, but I want you to know that I'm here, okay? I'm willing to listen for whatever your problems are." I stared deeply into his eyes like I was digging through his soul and calming it.He held my cheek
Slender cleared his throat after a minute of silence in the room. "Alpha Fenris, I know this is something serious and we need to take action, as soon as possible, but would you mind keeping this conversation only with the three of us? I don't wanna cause panic in our people. The less who knows about this, the better. Panic will cause more trouble and we don't need that at this time."Fenris nodded. "But I will also inform beta Jacob about this. We need to instruct our pack to train harder and smarter." He gasped. "Also, I will also send more security to take care of Vilka. She needs to be safe and she must survive this chaos."Slender nodded. I thought they were gonna talk more but then Fenris stood and walked his way to exit."Let me know when you see another relevant reading on your oracle," he said before he finally stepped out of the room.I followed him from behind with big steps as his long legs were in a rush while walking. "Can you slow down?" I gently asked. He stopped and
