Thankfully, I hadn’t unpacked some of my things that I brought in here, I was able to get my luggage and took my phone and wallet before storming out of my bedroom. The triplets were waiting in front of my bedroom, looking like they were pitiful dogs looking at me with their puppy eyes. “Virginia, don’t do this. Dad will get mad at us,” Spencer said. At least he was wearing clothes now! But the fact that he called me by my real name made me furious. “I don’t care about your father’s anger! I just need to get out of this hell!” I yelled. “Ginny, please don’t do this… if you want you can go tomorrow morning but not now. It was already late at night. If you think we are dangerous, what more outside?” Drake asked. At that moment, I thought about what he said. He had a point but it was impossible that everyone here was like them! "I'm leaving, and no one can stop me!” I exclaimed. “But—” Drake was about to stop me but Caled held his arm. “Let her. If that’s what she wants then let h
It took me some time before I realized that what happened last night was real. My step-brothers are werewolves! And I almost died because a werewolf also tried to eat me! I decided to get up from the bed, checked what I was wearing and was horrified to see that I was only wearing my white loose T-shirt and my red panty! Blood rushed through my face as I imagined how I changed into this clothes. Who… the hell did it? Trembling because of a mix emotions of fear and anger, I quickly looked around to find my luggage but I didn’t see it. All of my things were there! To be sure, I strode right into my closet and my face turned pale seeing that all of my clothes and things are back there. Clenching my fists, I looked around the room to find something sharp that I could use for defense. I got a small scissor but it’s fine for as long as I have something to protect myself. The fear in my chest was overwhelming, but I have to get out of this house as soon as possible! However, right after I o
I was staring at Caled’s eyes, and also trying to figure out what he meant by that. The way his dark blue eyes stared at me with a stoic expression made me feel how serious it was. And when I got sick of waiting when he was going to tell me, I irritatedly rolled back my eyes and sighed, “Why don’t you just get straight to the point? You can just spill it all out!” “We don’t know if you can take it,” Spencer answered, looking at me as if he pitied me… a lot. What kind of game are they trying to play with me? This is insane! I don’t like guessing games, ever! “I can, just spill it!” I shouted. I was too mad, impatient and all. While I was panicking because of all that was happening, they were still silently looking at me, contemplating whether they were going to tell me or not. “I’m sorry, Ginny but our father paid for all your debts.” My brow arched upon hearing that, “What? Debts? That was impossible! My father is a millionaire, we inherit properties and a sum of dollars!” I l
We ate peacefully and luckily, I am still alive after finishing all the food on my plate. I didn’t waste time waiting for their explanation. After wiping my lips with the napkin, I looked up at them and asked. “Tell me everything that you need to tell me,” I said. Caled finished the water on his glass before he looked at me with a disbelieving expression in his eyes. “I can’t believe you’re too impatient now, Ginny.” “I told you, I am not the same.” “You are still the same in my eyes, Virginia,” Spencer winked. Damn this guy is getting on my nerves! I am too impatient to get out of this table now and find a job that will pay our debts to them. “So, what now?” I asked. Caled was the one who cleared his throat and started to explain. “You are inside our pack, Ginny. And the three of us are the Alphas of this pack. As Alphas, we can protect you from werewolves living here. But you must own this, for them to know you are with us.” Spencer stood up, holding a velvet box and strode h
It was around 9:45 in the evening when I arrived back home to Stevens' Villa. I talked to the owner of the cafe for about thirty minutes before I drove back here. Of course, to know more about how the coffee shop works before I start tomorrow evening. Yes, it is a night shift but I guess it’s fine ‘cause I have to be there by ten in the evening and I’ll go home by six. For me, the time was better for someone like me who used to be a night person. I really hate waking up early. I was so exhausted from the whole thing I’ve done the whole day when I parked the car at the garage and went out of the car as I cracked my neck because of exhaustion. However, as soon as I got inside the house, I was surprised Caled was waiting for me at the door. His arms crossed his chest as he stood tall in front of me. “I told you to go home before dawn, what happened? Aren’t you afraid of the road full of shifters just because you had the silver crescent necklace?” he spat. I had to scratch the back of m
As I was looking at Spencer, juggling whether I would let him help me or not, I saw the sincerity in his eyes. I cleared my throat and returned my attention to the book I was trying to get. I was planning to just ignore him but I didn't expect that the books above me would fall. He was quick, he was able to catch me and move away from the books falling to the ground. The books created a loud noise followed by white dust scattered through the air. I coughed then realized that Spencer was already holding my waist, my eyes widened at how near our bodies! With a quick move, I pushed him away and avoided his gaze. “Be careful next time,” he said. I bit my lower lip to stop the tension I was feeling. Spencer sat down and picked up the books that were on the floor. And because I was ashamed, of course, it is my fault why the books fell, I got up and helped him. He was the one who put back the books while I gave him the books. When we were finally done, I thanked him. “Thanks…” A sma
Instead of going back inside of my bedroom, I quickly went downstairs hoping that it was Mom who came back from their honeymoon to Paris. When I finally came down, the door opened and it wasn’t Mom. I was surprised to see a woman the same age as me… with Caled who opened the door for her. “Oh, babe! I missed you!” she beamed and quickly wrapped her arms around his neck. The woman pulled him closer and then pressed a kiss on his lips. I didn’t know what to feel, but as I looked at them, I felt my chest tightened. This feeling was odd, and I hate it. Is that his girlfriend? But what is she doing here at this hour? I sighed and was about to go back upstairs but I stopped when they noticed me. “Ginny?” Caled called me. Closing my eyes tightly, I sighed before I opened my eyes and turned back to them. “I thought it was mom and Fernando,” I said. “I see it’s your girlfriend, I should go back…” “No, she’s not my girlfriend.” “I’m his fiancee! The soon-to-be Luna of this pack,” she ans
Caled It has been six years since I found my mate… And at that moment, I didn’t know how to approach her. I was at the edge of mourning because of my mother’s death when I met her. Not in a mating ceremony, but in the human town. The moment I smelled her sweet cherry scent, I quickly found her trying to fight with us while we were on the verge of bullying someone else. I believe that was a wrong timing. I wanted to be near her, and instead of doing it in a proper way, the immature me bullied her so I could get a chance to be with her every damn moment. I waited for this moment to come, to meet her again and reconcile but I guess that will be too hard. Because we inflicted too much pain on her. “Why are you telling me this?” she asked, arching her brow. Ginny was just a simple human and she didn’t know what mate was. She never smelled the way I smelled her scent. That’s why up until now she didn’t know… I never thought she would be my step-sister, my father never introduced us t
CaledIt’s almost been a day since Ginny was bitten by a vampire and we are still waiting for her to wake up. I sighed as I watched the sunset from Ginny’s window before I turned my attention to her. She was still sleeping… no, she’s still dead. I walked towards her body and held her cold hand. Her body was pale, her lips were violet and her heart wasn't beating. If we didn’t know who had bitten her, we would probably mistake her for dead. But she’s not. We know. I didn’t know when she’ll wake up because the healer didn’t know either. I was holding her hand when I felt her fingers slightly moved. That’s when I stood up and looked at her face. Her lips are starting to turn red and I started hearing her heart beating faster. Instead of calling the Dr. Lourd just as he said, I stayed there with Ginny. I stayed beside her to assure she’s fine.Her room was dark, just as Dr. Lourd instructed. Because having lights inside of her room would make her dizzy. As I waited for her to wake up, I
DrakeI raked my fingers through my hair as I yawned while watching the footage yesterday when some of the pack warriors caught a vampire. Shaking my head, I saw how the other bats flew away despite the fact that the sun was still shining bright and hot. Tomorrow, I will visit the witch-werewolf community in our pack to find out if there’s someone among them betraying us.As I was busy scrolling through the laptop to find more details, my phone rang. It was inside the drawer so I opened it and took out my phone to answer. It’s Spencer.Why did he call this time? He should’ve rested tonight since he had no time resting for the rest of the week.“Hello, Spencer?” I answered.“Drake, what are you doing now?” he asked.His voice sounds odd. It seemed like he cried. Spencer isn’t the type who’ll cry over something.“I’m in the exit of our pack, just as Caled instructed me to do. I stayed here until now. Why did you ask?”“Don’t be too surprised, Drake. You have to be strong and go to the t
CaledI was busy talking to Beta Ryan about what he should do when my phone rang. At first, I ignored the call and continued discussing when my phone rang once more.“Alpha, I think you should answer the call first, it seems like it’s urgent,” Ryan said.I sighed deeply and took out my phone from my pocket to see who it was. It is Spencer. What the hell does he need now? I don’t want to answer it, however, thinking that it might be urgent, so I pressed the answer button and put it in my ear.“What is it—” I wasn’t able to finish what I was saying when Spencer shouted at the other line.“Caled, go home, please! Damn, something happened to Virginia and you have to get in here!”My heart skipped a beat when I heard her name. “What happened?” I asked, stuttering.“She’s bitten by a vampire!” Spencer said. “Come on! Get the hell in here! We’ll talk once you arrive!”With that, I quickly ended the call and patted Ryan’s shoulder. “Call Drake and tell him I’ll go home. I’ll trust the entranc
SpencerAfter a week of training and watching over the boundaries of our pack, this was the first time that I would come home to get some rest. Goddess, I’m so tired from all this fucking mess! Why does that fucking Sebastian have to wake up! He should’ve just slept forever!“Are you sure it’s fine to go home now, Caled?” I asked as I yawned while I put on my jacket. Anyone could see how tired I was. My eyes were so tired! I have been looking out for the pack warrior in the entrance of our pack. I am the one inspecting everyone who went in and out of our pack to ensure that no vampire could enter the pack.“Yes… I’ll make Beta Ryan and the rest of our greatest warriors take over your job tonight. I believe you need to rest,” he answered.“Yeah… I badly needed to. At least you came home last night, but I didn’t have the chance to go home for a week! Damn, I missed our step-sister,” I chuckled.Not seeing him for a week made me miss her so much. I wonder what would be her reaction once
The next morning, I woke up by the sunrays that brushed through my face. As I opened my eyes, I saw that I was still in Caled’s bed. I quickly sat up and looked around but Caled wasn’t in the bed and I’m already wearing his shirt!I bit my lower lip as I remembered what happened last night. I couldn’t believe that we’ll do that over and over again, if it’s not because I fell asleep, we will surely won’t end it. Smiling, I shook my head to let go of those thoughts and jumped out of the bed. On the bed side table, I noticed a note so I took it and read what’s on it.‘We’ve already left the house, don’t worry, no one knows.’ — Caled.I smiled as I read the note. I could even hear his voice telling it to me in a whisper. Instead of staying in his room, I left and quickly went to my room. I went to the shower because I knew I smelled like him before I went out and got new clothes. Caled’s clothes were inside of my closet, I don’t have a plan on washing it!I’m still smiling widely when I c
The moment Caled crashed his lips against mine, I believe that we won’t just kiss tonight. When he released my lips and he stared into my eyes, I saw the burning desire within him.“Is this what you really want, Ginny?” he asked in a raspy tone.Biting my lips, I gently nodded. With that, he kissed me on my forehead, then to my nose and to my lips before he moved away and removed his shirt. I saw how his muscles flexed with his moves with his abs that seemed to be sculpted by God. My mouth gaped at the sight of his beauty, the way he threw his shirt on the floor was so sexy. Then he kissed me again. His hands roamed around my body, then it slipped underneath the blouse I’m wearing. He cupped my right breast and caressed it, slightly pinching the tip of it. I moaned as pleasure surged through my body.“Caled…” I called his name.He continued squeezing my breasts until he squeezed it both. My whole body tickles with the way he does it, I keep squeezing my legs because I can feel somet
Curious, I quickly averted my position towards Caled to look him in the eyes. His voice sounds so serious and I couldn’t just ignore it. When our eyes met, I saw the guilt that I have never seen from him before.“What is it, Caled?” I asked.He looked like he’s still doubting whether to tell me or not but I lifted up my hand to touch his cheek, assuring him to go on and tell me what was bothering him. I don’t know if what he was going to tell me would hurt me, but still, I need to know.“You can tell me, Caled…” I said as I caressed his cheeks with my hand.He sighed before he licked his lips. When he did that, I finally had a hint on what it was that he wanted to say. In a dark room like this, only lit by the lamp and the moonlight, there’s a glimpse of memory flashed into my mind.“Caled…” I called him after a moment of silence.“Do you remember the night when you were once drunk at the party that my brothers and I organized?” he asked. His voice sounds nervous.My heart started bea
It’s already late in the afternoon when we arrived at the house. Caled and I were both silent because of an unknown reason. To be honest, it wasn’t his violence towards the vampire that is the reason why I feel down. It is because of the fact that this kind of situation actually exists. I only thought of this to exist in books and movies which I enjoyed a lot. And now, it’s actually happening. When we arrived at the Villa, the car parked in front of the house. Caled went out of the car and opened the door for me and let me out. I thought we would just enter the house without saying a word but Caled took my hand, entwined our fingers and looked at me just as before we do. I looked up at him with confusion. “Just stay in here. You don’t have to force yourself to come with us if you don't want to,” he said. “Don’t worry, I will find time to train you at home, alright?” I smiled at him and nodded. “I’ll think about it first. I was just surprised at what happened earlier, I didn’t expe
As soon as we get out of the car, Caled run towards the direction where one of his pack warrior run through. He was in a hurry and it seemed like it was an important matter. “Alpha, here!” The man said and he pointed out a bat under the tree. It was a huge bat. At first glance, I knew it wasn't just an ordinary bat because its size was truly unusual compared to normal bats. Aside from that, there are small holes in its left wing. Three men stood guard over the bat, each aiming their guns towards it. Seems like the bat is a danger. "Where did you see it?" Caled asked the man who told us where the bat was. "To tell you the truth, Alpha, three bats were flying around here a while ago. We chased them, but this is the only one we caught. We managed to shoot its wing." Caled approached the bat and examined it. He sat down and looked at it more closely. As he observed, it suddenly shifted. From being a bat, it turned into a man! He was a man with pale skin but what I noticed right awa
