Iris quickly dialed Japh. "Yes?" Japh picked in two rings. "Can you see Willow?" She panicked. "What do you mean? What happened?" He made a quick scan of the restaurant. "I think something happened. I was talking to her... then… then she suddenly screamed for help and… and her voice was muffled" Iris worriedly explained. "She isn't with Rowan. I'm just outside the restaurant. I think she left for the restroom earlier" Japh walked into the restaurant. "I'll ask Rowan" He ended the call. "Japh! What are you doing here?" Rowan smiled up at him. "Where's Willow?" Japh quickly asked. "Restroom" Rowan pointed and Japh quickly walked in the direction. "Sir, you cannot be in here!" A lady shouted at him. He picked up Willow's phone from the floor and quickly rushed out. "She is missing" Japh said to Rowan who followed him out. "Missing? How? She just went to the restroom" Rowan became worried. "I'm screwed" Japh sighed. "It's not your fault. I'll explain it to Jordan" "You don'
Jordan continuously tapped his pen aggressively on the table.Click. Click. Click. Click.He threw the pen away."This can't be happening" He muttered."Maybe it's a coincidence" Japh said to him."This can't be a coincidence" He stood up. "How is it even possible? I saw his body!" Jordan breathed."They are definitely his men," Star said with a nod. "But how did he survive?""Unless someone else is responsible for this. Playing with our heads" Jordan sat back."I don't think anyone can just decide to play such a stunt. We are the strongest in this region" Star replied."Unless someone else is taking revenge" Japh suggested."True, but who would?" Star wondered."And why target Willow?" Jordan added."Maybe because…""No! I don't think that's the reason. Whatever vendetta we had, it was only between us" Jordan stood up again. "Why is he attacking her!?" He angrily hit the table."Calm down," Japh told him. "You should have seen yourself back there. You completely froze""For a moment
(Jordan's POV)I knew.The first time she transformed into her wolf by the river, I knew she was my mate.But she didn't.I waited. Eagerly.I really did. But nothing.At first, I thought she didn't know what it meant but with time, I knew she didn't feel it.Her wolf desperately called out for me while my wolf frustratingly kept growling..'Mate''Mate'I wondered what I did to the moon goddess to be in such a difficult situation.How can I make her my luna when she doesn't even know she's mine?It makes me angry because as long as she doesn't feel what I felt, she is a free woman.I badly wanted to pin her down and put that forever sign on her neck but I can't forcefully mark her and it kills me.I would have never guessed that she is my mate.Watching her transform into the most beautiful wolf I've ever seen by the river was real torture because her wolf was calling out to me and she had no clue.Japh quietly looked at me. He waited for me to construct a sentence."She's the one,"
(Jordan's POV)I wasn't surprised that she was resisting but she really needs to leave."I didn't give you an option" I said."I'm making one" She angrily walked to her bed."Leviathan is out for me" I stated, walking to her balcony and she followed."Who's Leviathan?" She asked behind me."Someone you don't want to know. He is very dangerous and you need to get out of here. Go back to New Jersey. It's safer" I turned to her."If he is out for you, then why are you kicking me out?" She walked past me."Because he is using you to get to me""And you care?""I care about my pack and I won't see you get hurt and allow it. That's why you need to leave" I explained."I'm not leaving you," She said.She reminded me of Genzzi. Always stubborn and persistent.For some reason, the worry and care I heard in her voice satisfied me.I wanted to hold her tightly and kiss her passionately. Make her mine and make sure she never forgets. "You don't have to worry about me. You should worry about your
Everything became peaceful and life wasn't as complicated as before.But the simple life she now lives was lonely and frustratingly depressing.This is what he wanted, right?She never wanted to leave him but he kicked her out.She would toss herself at night in bed, drink a gallon of coffee and watch the moonlight but still wasn't able to get him out of her mind.What about the attacks?Is he still in danger?Picking up her phone, she dialed Japh.He stopped picking her calls ever since she left the pack house probably because Jordan ordered him not to.She angrily threw the phone on the bed."Ow!" Iris threw the phone back."Ouch!" Willow pushed her off the bed with her legs."Ah!" Iris shouted. "What's wrong with you!?" She stood up."Sorry!""Are you done packing?" Iris asked, adjusting her baseball cap."I don't feel good about this," Willow sadly said."I thought you said he isn't your type?" Iris sat beside her."We've talked about this" Willow rolled her eyes."I know you like
"I'm so sorry but I just can't" Willow gave him an apologetic look.Rowan asked her to be his girlfriend but deep down she knew it was impossible because she still wasn't over what happened with Jordan."How can I convince you?" He held her hand."You can't""You love someone else?" He moved away from her."I don't know but I just don't want to hurt you. I'm not ready for this" She replied."Can you just try since you're not sure about your feelings?" He pleaded."I'm sorry" She shook her head.He raked his fingers through his hair and briefly looked at her."Can we have dinner tomorrow?" He asked."I'm busy tomorrow but I'll be free the next" She smiled.."Okay. Thank you…""Willow" A familiar voice called.Willow took her eyes off Rowan to the door."Japh!" Willow screamed and ran to him jumping into his arms."Hello. Nice to see you too!" He laughed."The gall of you to show up after completely ignoring me!" She punched him."You know why!" His eyes settled on Rowan."Japh" Rowan s
Willow spread her hands as the breeze loving danced to the melody of the wind which occasionally caressed her arms and neck.Her hair gracefully played in harmony with the wind."Is this really necessary?" Rowan chuckled, adoringly looking at her."Did I complain about dinner?" She closed her eyes and took a deep breath."You said you loved it!""Would you like it if I complained? I had to make you feel good because you put your efforts into the whole thing" She smiled."You didn't let me take you to nice restaurant" "That's just corny besides, you claimed you can cook" "I can""I wanted to see for myself," She shrugged."And what do you think?" He stepped in front of her."I'll give you a six" She smiled."And don't I deserve some kinda reward?""What do you want?""You know exactly"Slow laughed and kissed him on the cheek."Really? That's what I get for cooking for you and walking you back home? I literally left my comfortable Mercedes" He pouted his lips.She kissed his jaw."Ha
She had one last thing to take care of.This was the trip she dreaded.Going back to the place that held everything she tried to forget in the past six months.But this was different.Because her purpose has changed.She is going to confront something bigger than her. Something that might change her life for good.Whatever answers she gets today will determine the direction her life is going to take.A single information holds the capacity to twist your fate but it's left to you to mold it. Either you take charge or your fate will make you dance to its tone.Parking her Porsche in the driveway, Willow took a deep breath before hitting her knuckles on the door."I'm coming!" Terra shouted.Willow smiled because of the joy she heard in her mother's voice.She sounded happy and energetic. Just like old times."Willow!" Terra tightly hugged her daughter.No tears, okay."Hey mum" She kissed her mother on the cheeks."How are you? I thought you'll never stop by. How's Iris? Stella was just
