16. A Second Encounter with Romeo
Bayswater Beach
Romeo Price
We returned from the packhouse a couple of hours ago and since then, Annabelle has been uncharacteristically quiet. I don’t know what had happened during the tour with my mum but the visit changed her. She is not as candid as she was before. And tonight, she retired immediately to the bedroom, telling me that she's tired and needs her rest.
Perhaps, we’ve shocked her. She’s not from our kind and yet she was pulled into our mess the moment she found me at the beach. Now, she doesn’t have a choice but to see this through.
I glanced at her sleeping form and waited for twenty minutes. The black onyx stone on her neck pulsed and I closed my eyes, entering into her dream state. When I opened my eyes, I was surprised to find that we were not on the beach. Somehow tonight, her mind had chosen the packhouse

The Alpha's Key 17. Sebastian Wolfe
Moonstone Pack Lands The Alpha’s bedroom was dark, save for one single light shining from a table lamp near the bed. Pillows were strewn haphazardly by the foot of the bed, long forgotten. Two naked bodies were moving in sync, one had her legs up in the air as the other increased his speed, pumping furiously. Sweat coated their bodies, their expressions ruptured with wanton. Moans reverberated in the bedroom, both grunting in pleasure as they neared their climax. “Sebastian, please..." The woman pleaded desperately, her nails making half-moon indentations as she dug into his back. Her body trembled with desire, writhing, the pressure building to a point that she's almost bursting with pleasure. "Oh Sebastian, yes!" She screamed as her back arched, toes curling, seeing stars as her bo
The Alpha's Key 18. A Hidden Switch
Bayswater Beach The next morning, Annabelle woke up to the phone ringing incessantly in her ear. She groaned in protest, her hands clawing cluelessly around the bed as she kept her eyes closed. Her fingers touched the cool surface of her phone and moments later she heard a distinct thump, the damned phone had fallen to the floor. The ringing stopped and Annabelle sighed in relief. Just as she was returning to slumber, the ringing restarted. This time followed by a loud voice booming in her head. "Oh for the love of God! Would you just ANSWER the BLOODY PHONE!" Romeo's voice resounded in her brain causing her body to automatically sit bolt upright on the bed. She blinked in confusion, her min
The Alpha's Key 19. Underground Library
Annabelle stood up and stared at the now gaping wall in astonishment. Her eyes traversed over the surface, where a one meter gap now exists. The wooden panel that mounted the television along with the wall behind it had slanted to the side, revealing a darkened and mysterious staircase. A hidden doorway is camouflaged behind the wooden panel, making it appear to be part of the wall. She couldn't discern a knob near the opening so she presumed there must be a concealed mechanism that opens and closes the secret entryway. "How on earth did you do that, Jughead?" She inquired, her feet moving soundlessly towards the aperture that had suddenly appeared. The book that she was reading lay on the sofa, completely forgotten. Jughead scratched his head in embarrassment, looking perplexed. "I slipped and almost fell. When
The Alpha's Key 20. The Prophecy and the Curse
They left the underground library an hour ago and all of them had showered to rid of the dust and grime from their impromptu exploration. While Annabelle had changed into a clean outfit, the boys chose to lounge in their boxers while their clothes went into the washer-dryer. And now Annabelle is in the kitchen, surrounded by four half-naked men with washboard abs and a wolf. Gotta love the shapeshifter's uninhibited culture. They were seated at the breakfast nook, eating McDonald's burger and fries and slurping on ice-cold drinks. The conversation began with the boys discussing about the Wiccan Kingdom's family tree that they had just seen in the underground library. One topic moved to another and they are now talking about Nari, which according to Roman, should be the next in line for the throne. "So, let's see if I get this right. Four days ago, Nari wanted Romeo to mark her as his mate on her birthday. And when Romeo refused, she cursed him to remain
The Alpha's Key 21. Return of the Ex
Bayswater Beach Annabelle Aoki I stood still, my eyes unfocused as I gaze across the horizon, watching foam rising on the beach left by waves that crash relentlessly against the sand. The breeze blew softly against my long, straight hair, causing tendrils to flap gently behind my drooping shoulders. The decision to inform the boys of who I am weighed heavily upon me. A predicament that I never thought I would have. We left the beach house about fifteen minutes ago, everyone needed to let out steam and work away the stress so we headed to the beach. And despite the cold autumn weather, the boys are splashing in the water like it's summer while I observe them from afar. Gotta love the shapeshifter's incredible body temperature. Less than an hour ago, we finally found a way to break the curse. The solution sounded so simple; we only needed the black onyx stone, the ruby stone, both stone guardi
The Alpha's Key 22. A Third Encounter with Romeo
Moonstone Pack Lands "How was it? What did she say?" Nari asks excitedly afterStephen had disconnected the call. She was seated right next to him when he made the call, having been the one that encouraged him to call Annabelle. His face was pale, a sheen of cold sweat glistening on his forehead, his fingers cold and trembling. Despite his nervous expression, his eyes shone brilliantly with hope, for Annabelle had agreed to meet him tomorrow. The poor guy was unsure whether he should call Annabelle and has been indecisive for days. What he didn't know was that Nari can be very persuasive. She casted a confidence spell on him and it finally gave Stephen the push to call his ex-girlfriend. Tomorrow the two of them will be meeting up in Bayswater town. "I can't spoil this chance, Nari." He muttered, shaking his head. Like all their previous fights and breakups, the last one was also caused by him. Annabelle had
The Alpha's Key 23. Stephen Wolfe
I woke up the next morning groggy and grumpy. To be honest, I barely slept at all, having conversed almost the whole night with Romeo in my dream state and now I'm paying for it by waking up late. My alarm chimed, telling me it's almost noon and in less than an hour, I am to meet Stephen in town. Roman had asked me to drive Chucky to the packhouse, so I decided not to explain to Chucky that I'm going to be meeting Stephen. Even last night, with the exception of telling him an ex-boyfriend of mine trashed the apartment, I barely mentioned Stephen. It's better to let the past, stay buried in the past. Rushing into the bathroom, I quickly showered and put on a shirt and a pair of jeans, woke Chucky up and with five minutes to spare, we were out of the beach house.
The Alpha's Key 24. Annabelle Meets Nari
I moaned, my head pounding just like a drum. My eyelids fluttered open and I found myself lying on the cold floor of an unfamiliar room. What the heck happened? The last thing I remembered before everything went dark was getting knocked on my head by the wizard when we arrived in Crimson Bay. My right hand automatically flew up to massage my throbbing temple and I almost shrieked in surprise when I realized that I have regained control of my body. I slowly shifted into a sitting position, massaging my temples and groaning. The enchantment spell that the wizard used on me must have waned off. I quickly chanted a cleansing spell to rid my body of any residue from the enchantment spell the wizard had cast. My skin tingled unpleasantly, the sensation akin to beingpricked by a thousand tiny needles as remnants of the spell left my skin.Enchantment spells are very powerful and as long as there is any residue left in me, the
