I woke up feeling a bit eerie. My body still felt sore and the discomfort I was feeling was just plain terrible. Hina was up quite early preparing breakfast. I stood up to wash my face a little and asked if she had some coffee.
“I met the teacher earlier, and I asked if you could teach the children in the school. She immediately accepted it and was all smiles and laughs.” Hina told me the good news as I prepared some coffee.
“That’s awesome. Can I start today? I just want to see the environment and meet the children, of course.” I optimistically uttered.
“She said you can visit her today if you like,
My mind was foggy, a little eerie? I really did not know what was happening. I was in blindfold. Both of my hands and feet were tied up. I came to find Apple, but why am I in this situation? I asked in my mind. “They should fetch a hefty price on the market, especially this hot one.” I heard an unfamiliar voice of a man. Then he laughed scornfully. They’re going to sell me and Apple? To whom? Suddenly I heard Apple’s cry. “Don’t worry Apple. We can escape, okay? Just stay calm.” I whispered to her. I c
Blaze’s POV I ignored my heart, thinking that my feelings towards Ayira were only normal since she was my mate. Thus, I made her suffer. I tortured her and made her life miserable. One evening, I came home searching for her. I found her in the laundry room, washing her clothes. I took off my shirt and threw it on her face. “After you’re done, come to my room,
That night, I confronted Ben. I beat him, punching, kicking, and hitting him one after another, releasing all the rage in my heart. "Why, Ben? Why? You're the one who brought her to the villa. She treated you like her brother, didn't she?" I asked with gritted teeth. Ben didn't respond, making my wrath grow even more. I hit him again and again until he couldn't stand anymore. "Alpha Blaze, please forgive us." Rita pleaded as she rushed to Ben.
Ayira's POV “I invited them over dinner, Ayira. I wanted to thank them for rescuing you earlier. If not for them, we do not know where you are now.” Hina explained as he glanced at Blaze, then at Noah, giving them a warm smile. I forced a smile as I nodded my head in understanding. But deep inside I was anxious, very very anxious, thinking of what Hina told them about me. “Don’t mention it, grandma,” Blaze uttered, which raised my brow. Grandma? Who did he think he was? They just met and he was feeling
Blaze and I walked to the corridor and stopped before the exit. He suddenly held my arm as he leaned me against the wall, facing me. His eyes were gleaming, and the smell of his perfume traveled into my nose. My heart raced! I struggled not to close my eyes as I recalled a scene of our past. Good thing I managed to quickly avert my eyes, avoiding his gaze. However, he held my chin, turning my face back to him. His warm hand brought chills down my spine. I felt suffocated at the moment.
“Hey! Ayira, where are you going?” I saw Blaze. He was confused about my outfit and the number of things I brought. “It’s not your problem where I am going. Do not stop me.” I muttered. Sigh. Why did he come back? Is he following me? I asked in my mind. “Are you going back to the ruins? I told you it’s dangerous there. You do not know what things reside there right now. It is abandoned for a reason, Ayira.” He said, trying to stop me from going to the forest. “I know what I’m doing Blaze. Don't tell me
Blaze's golden eyes glimmered. I could discern that his wolf was about to come out, ready for a fight. But I quickly held his arm, signaling him to stay calm. Then I bravely stepped forward. Blaze followed me. We had no choice since she smelled us already. "You're wolves!" the female wolf growled, gritting her teeth as she lowered her front body as though she was ready to attack and to be attacked. "Yes!--" Blaze admitted, but I immediately cut him off. "We're not here to fight," I exclaimed.
I was astounded. I didn't expect that Hina knew my true identity all this time. I suddenly felt ashamed of the old lady. It had been a year since I pretended that I lost my memories as I didn't want to be questioned about my identity. Because I knew very well that humans would be afraid of me when they found out I was a wolf or worse, they would kill me or submit me to the authorities. I was busy with my thoughts when I heard Hina speak. “Before Shion, Kate met a young wolf. They became friends. They always play at the shore every sunset. I have never seen my daughter so happy before she met her. That's why I'm also delighted." Hina remarked, wiping her tears away as she recalled the happy memories o
