MasukLegends of old had been passed throughout the Kingdom of Shaldan. That the great kings of the past, the Alpha of the East had lost his mind and ruined the Kingdom. The Queen, the Luna named Galatea had been murdered by her own mate. Songs about the legend had been made. "Don't go to the forest. Don't go to the east. Don't go near the forest, or you'll face the beast." The villagers knew the song by heart and they knew the reason, though the monsters were only talked about in whispers. In a lullaby. The Eastern Forest was dangerous for it had been neglected, forgotten. The forest was dark. Even the lights from the moon, the stars and thousands of fireflies were not enough to illuminate the sky. Everyone knew that. For how could they forget. A stone had been carved for the purpose of everyone's protection. Sometimes the village young boys and girls dared each other to step to the edge of the meadow, just to see, but none of them actually went beyond the protective bushes at the edge. "Phil, wait for me!" Accashia screamed. Accashia had always felt that her family neglected her. Shunned her. Sometimes her older siblings would even chase her through the meadow for fun. It was easier to catch her, which meant it was easier to beat her up and tie her to the big oak tree. The only difference is when they left her that night and came back during daybreak, Accashia was gone. "Find her! Mom's going to kill us if she finds out!” Little did they know that she was picked up by someone who's silver hair glows under the moonlight. A Survivor from the East. A young man named Calleb. WARNING! CONTAINS BEASTIALITY
Lihat lebih banyakIn an expensive suite of one of São Paulo's most luxurious hotels, a slender figure was sprawled on the lavish bed.
The man standing beside the bed brushed aside the young woman’s soft, blonde hair, revealing a face with unique features. Her rosy lips appeared dry.
“It’s so dry here!” she exclaimed. “I need water!”
The man beside the bed scoffed disdainfully, picked up his phone, and walked out to make a call.
“Are you coming soon? She’s in room 268, and the effects of the drug are starting to show. But remember, take some spicy photos for me when you're done.”
“Don’t worry, I’m almost there!”
The suite door closed, and the person on the phone hadn’t noticed that the girl on the bed was watching him.
Victoria propped up her weakened body as she got out of bed. A surge of unfamiliar heat burned through her body, and with the little strength she had left, she staggered out into the hotel corridor, trembling.
She knew her half-sister, Ciara, was behind this, and she couldn’t let her plan succeed.
The elevator chimed just as Stella was deciding which direction to run, and she tensed up. That person was probably sent by Ciara, so she ran in the opposite direction.
“Stop right there!”
The person shouted down the corridor upon seeing Victoria fleeing.
Victoria didn’t know how many flights of stairs she had descended, but she was exhausted. The drug was taking its toll, and the pursuer was closing in.
She had no more energy to keep running, as both legs had lost all strength.
Would she really fail to escape?
At that moment, Victoria realized the door she was leaning against wasn’t properly closed. With a simple push, she opened it and quickly slipped into the room.
The person chasing her smirked; their plan had worked. Victoria certainly wouldn’t leave that room alive.
Meanwhile, Victoria used the last of her strength to close the door and collapsed heavily onto the carpeted floor.
Her head felt heavier, and everything around her began spinning.
Her face was unnaturally flushed, though the vibrant color made her striking features even more captivating.
She gasped for breath, her mouth open. The turbulent heat inside her body seemed to drain every ounce of energy she had.
She needed water.
She needed to quench her thirst.Victoria stumbled further into the room, dazed, and suddenly tripped over something.
“Oh.”
The lights in the room were off. The curtains were tightly drawn, blocking out any light, and Victoria couldn’t see anything clearly.
Her face seemed to press against something warm.
In the darkness, a man, also under the influence of a drug, opened his eyes. His handsome features were hidden in the shadows, but his gaze was sharp, like that of a hibernating predator.
“Who are you?”
Stella didn’t know why there was a man there. His voice was hoarse and cold, devoid of any warmth, but to her, it sounded like a lifeline.Her instincts told her he had something that could help her.
She reached for his face, gently caressing it. “I’m so thirsty. Let me find some water to drink first.”The girl’s voice was soft and hypnotic. As she spoke, her warm breath enveloped the man, and a wave of heat surged toward his lower abdomen.
However, he didn’t have the strength to move at that moment.
“Who sent you here? Get out...”
The man hadn’t finished speaking when soft lips kissed the tip of his nose. A fragrance unique to the girl suddenly filled all his senses.All his muscles tensed in an instant.
Victoria didn’t know what had come over her. She didn’t feel like herself. She straddled the man’s abdomen, then instinctively pressed her red lips to his without further thought.
The man had a refreshing scent she liked—a scent full of masculinity.
She nibbled on his cold, soft lips, then moved to his chin and jawline. Her breathing was erratic, and a soft moan escaped her flushed lips.
“I feel so uncomfortable. Can you help me…?”
The man was about to say something when her lips pressed deeply against his again, silencing his words.
Her soft, fragrant tongue slipped into his mouth.Neither could see the other’s face clearly, but both felt the burning heat emanating from their bodies.
Victoria’s delicate arms wrapped tightly around the man’s neck. She didn’t know what else to do but kiss him. She buried her flushed face in his neck, letting out a painful moan.
Victoria had no idea why she felt an inexplicable trust in this man.
Maybe it was because he lay there without moving. Or perhaps it was because he hadn’t hurt her even after she kissed him like that.
But she hadn’t considered the primal instincts of a man.
As she moved to kiss him again, he suddenly trembled, flipping her beneath him and pinning her down.
In the darkness, Victoria could feel the extreme allure in the man’s cold, dark eyes as he stared at her, pulling her into an endless whirlpool.
Victoria couldn’t help but nervously swallow. Her hands slid unconsciously under the man’s shirt, her fingers gently caressing, lightly dancing across his well-defined abdomen. They seemed to have a mind of their own, moving lower instinctively...
It hurt.It was as if her body had been forcibly opened by an axe.
Despite the pain she felt, her drug-induced body only craved more. Her hands gripped the man’s tense muscles, demanding more from his strong, taut arms as her nails left scratched trails of blood on his skin.
Accashia must have fallen asleep while the two Alpha’s were interrogating the old Shaman. She sits up straight and there's a blanket across her body until her chest. She pulled the covers up, bringing it up to her face. The young woman inhaled, smiling wide right after. It smells like her mate, warm wood and a hint of musk. Calleb’s scent reminded her of sunrise. It smells a little like her too. Accashia was not the type of person who always wakes up on the right side of the bed. Before, she’ll wake up with Luther’s face right in front of hers. Her older brother would always taunt her. Tease her, borderline torment her. Somehow she wishes he could erase it. The memories. "Why the long face?" Calleb appeared out of nowhere, shocking Accashia. Her soul almost left her body, and became a bit grumpy because of it. “Calleb!” She whined, screaming his name as she did. “You know that I startle easily! Don’t sneak up on me like an animal!” The Alpha grinned. “I am an animal though.” He wa
"Ive heard Galathea saying she heard the song of songs, whisper of whisps. But not a cry of a child." The King stared at Accashia’s ghostly pale face. The Luna was still in shock. She was only wearing a thin bathrobe, contrasting the dark thick cotton robe that enveloped Calleb’s body. "A shrill cry. A woman singing an eerie lullaby. I’ve heard of that before. But not from a newborn child —” He looked at his son, then smiled. “None, except from you, son. The day you were born.” "Maybe we should have the Castle blessed?" Calleb had asked. "Before being rebuilt, this place was heavily guarded by Shadows. Dangerous skeleton-like creatures who are brought back to life by Ursula’s power. They carry an ember of soul in their chest. Lost souls." Bathal shuddered in the memory. "I remember. Maybe the Castle needs to be blessed." "It’s not a soul." Accashia opposed. A frown on her face, disliking how the two Alpha’s are dismissing what she heard. "I know a soul when I feel one, see one. When
"I’m not hallucinating, Calleb! I heard a loud cry of a child!" Accashia paced back and forth after pushing Calleb away from her. The cry of the newborn sounded terrible against her ears. “I must find the baby — it could be lost, or worse — it might’ve been abandoned by its parents!” The Alpha sighed as he pinched the area between his brows. It feels like he’s wiggling out of a tightrope and he’s bound from his wrist down to his ankles. “Maybe it’s just your imagination, Accashia. You’re carrying my child after all. It may be the cause of your hallucinations.” Accashia was heading towards the door when Calleb’s spoke. She spun and marched towards her mate. By the looks of it, the young lady was deeply offended. “I know the sound of a crying child when I hear one, Calleb. I’m the one who took care of Jill when she was a newborn. I’m familiar with the cry of a wailing child looking for his mother — Calleb.” “And I’m not dismissing your judgments, Accashia.” Was Calleb’s calm reply. T
What it all boils down to is a simple thing. Human beings, creatures and beasts alike are all sentimental beings. Filled with empathy. Love and affection. And in turn, are always seeking for it. The first time Luntian laid eyes on her sister was after Amihan had just given birth to her. The little one had a head full of black hair, and had this blank stare. Ursula would cry from dusk till dawn. It was thousands of years ago, but her sister’s shrill cry would still resound in her nightmare. The idea of having a sibling was one of the things she wished for in life, though at times she wished her mother would shove the thing back to where it came from. Luntian loved Ursula, but there was something about her that she didn't like. She doesn’t like the crooked smile on her lips. The oddly long nails. The dark, dark cowl on her head. And the odd paint on her face. She was a yellow Shaman, but did not act like one. Not even a little. Had it been the way she talked or the things she said? O
Ursula swallowed against the dryness of her throat after hearing that her sister, Luntian, was alive. “She’s alive?” She asked, wide eyed and looked like she was about to faint for all the color in her face disappeared. She was pale before, now she’s as pale as a ghost. “You’re lying, that woman cou
At first, Calleb thought that his mate was joking about saving his father and killing the Wicked Witch when they were relaxing at the cliff. But the moment he saw Accashia picking up the blade from the cave where he left it, he realized how serious she was. Unsure, shocked and baffled was an underst
The young lady trailed back to the hollow cave where she left Calleb and Luntian while they were asleep. The sun was slowly rising, and the dawn of a new day shines upon her once more. And yet, the warmth of the sun polars her cold, cold heart. Her shoulders were slumped as she walked, dragging her
The cat and mouse chase — rather — the hide and run game between Calleb and the Accashia went on and on that day. Wherever Calleb may be, Accashia will make sure she’s at a far distance away from him. During supper, even while Luntian made new clothes for them. As well as when the two of them were a
