The Luna's Prey Chapter 51: Surprise Performance
I OUGHT to be guilty at least. But damn. I only felt mesmerized while looking at Alexandra. This was cheating. Does she even know what her laughter does to people?After some time, I shrugged. “Glad to know you were entertained. And you didn’t look jealous at all.”She was still smiling when she uttered, “If you look at them the way you look at me, I would have exploded by now. But Luther, you didn’t give me the chance to feel jealous. I’m grateful. Their words have no power over me because I know who and what I am in your life.”Her confidence, her stance, her smile, everything was sexy. I held her hand and kissed it, my teeth deliberately scraped her skin. If only we were at home, I would have pushed her down already. We did it before we left the house. As soon as I saw her in the gown, I pushed her against the wall and made love to her.Remembering it made me want to do it again and again. No matter how many times I took her, it will never be enough. Even until now, her taste still
The Luna's Prey Chapter 52: The Scent of Death
“WEREN’T you afraid that I might embarrass you?” I asked Luther.He chuckled. “I know you wouldn’t do that. Besides, as if that would ever happen. Even if you just stood there and do nothing, you will still be beautiful. And I will still be clapping. Other men wouldn’t admit it, but deep down, they were clapping for you, too.”I smiled. Never in my life would I admit that I did that to make everyone see that Luther was now off the market. I would never have cared whose party this was or whose birthday we were celebrating. If I didn’t want to perform, no one could force me. But since in a way, it involved Luther, I felt like I had to show off… a little.I could still feel the lustful stares the women were showering him with. I could hear their every conversation. Some of the women here were the ones he used to date, women who wanted to have him back while some still wanted to have a taste of him despite the ring on his finger.And when it came to that department, it was hard to blame t
The Luna's Prey Chapter 53: Fan Service
“I WILL give you a chance to change your mind. After all, I will be staying in this town for a while. That’s possible, right? Werewolves are now free to live with humans. Vampires should do the same.”“Three is a crowd. Haven’t you heard that? And you’ve had your fun. Wasn’t that enough?” I probed.We had been fooled. There was no Mage in San Antonio at all. This man’s scent was the reason why everybody thought Duncan had gotten over his wife so quickly. He came in her wake with this same floral scent. Now I understood that he put on that cologne in his desire to mask the scent of blood.And this hybrid was showing me how it worked. The scent of the werewolf’s blood had slowly disappeared and this floral scent was taking over, ensnaring almost everyone in the area, especially women.Duncan was collaborating with this hybrid. Right now, I think I would have preferred a Mage over a Vampire. If it was a Mage, with the right transaction, we might win without going to battle. But if it was
The Luna's Prey Chapter 54: Husband Etiquette 101
(Alexandra)TONIGHT, I was reminded of the many reasons why I fell in love with my husband. Even when I was already his, I still find myself falling more and more in love with him every hour, every day. At times, he was charming, playful, witty, sexy, romantic, and extremely adorable.But tonight, he was all that. And more.When we got inside the car, he didn’t drive immediately. He looked at me, his eyes wide-open. Then he leaned on his seat as if someone had stolen all his energy. He let out a sigh of relief and uttered, “We’re saved! I thought this was going to be my last time attending a party. Damn. I’m still one lucky son of a bitch!”I burst out laughing. It turned out that behind his smiles, he was nervous, too. Although it didn’t show.A moment ago, after I saw the hybrid drink a werewolf’s blood, I was so close to losing it. But when Luther showed up, acting like some sort of a celebrity, giving autographs and taking pictures, all the tension in my body evaporated.All that
The Luna's Prey Chapter 55: When Broken Souls Collide
(Luther)MY GRIP tightened around the stirring wheel while staring at the Victorian-style mansion a few meters away from me. After the incident which almost killed me, the Governor went off the grid. He had abandoned all his political responsibilities, his people, his friends, and went into hiding which made him the number two most searched politician in the country. The number one spot belonged to his half-brother who was suffering from the backlash of his previous actions including perjury, human rights violation, and corruption.“Now that we found out who your father was working for and we’ve dealt with almost all of the elites, I think it’s time to close the curtains,” Alexandra told me this morning before I left. We spent the entire night digging what we could about the Vampires. Beatrix, Giovanni, Kenji, and my team members were with us to learn, too.We had to familiarize ourselves with the new fans since they will be the next people we will have to face. The sudden spike in di
The Luna's Prey Chapter 56: Trust No Man
(Beatrix)STRONG, WEAK, young, old, rich, or poor, I believe we were all pretty much the same. We were all searching for home, for a place we could call ‘ours’. We were searching for that little warmth to get by in this harsh world. The strong ones looked for it to either keep their strength or become stronger. The weak craved for it in hopes of being strong. The young needed it to survive, the old looked for it to have something to hold on to until the day they would have to say goodbye to living.The rich would kill for it while the poor would thrive for it. That’s what home and warmth could do to people.The werewolves were no different. We fight for our place; we fight for warmth, for home.Once upon a time, I found mine. I found home. I found my version of haven, my peace of mind, my strength, and the source of my joy. I was silly to think that just because we were wolves, we would be together forever. But in the end, he became the source of my sorrow, too.When the humans killed
The Luna's Prey Chapter 57: The Hunter and the Haunted
WHEN Alexandra left the house, I was about to follow her but then, Kenji tried to catch up to me and held my hand. This time, my tears fell. I had learned how to believe in the goodness of humans because of him. He was my sliver of hope.And when he proposed to me, I wanted to leave everything behind and just take the ring and run away with him. But I could not afford to be greedy with the man I had fallen in love with. I thought if we were to live together, I would only make him miserable. I was afraid to be the reason why his eyes would lose its sparkle.Wolves lead a very dangerous life and I didn’t have the heart to keep dragging him in my misery. That’s why I let him go. Who would have known that I would be the one dragged instead?“Do you have something else to say?” I asked in the coldest voice I could muster. But the tears in my eyes betrayed me.Kenji glanced at my left wrist. I noticed how pain flickered in his eyes when he no longer saw the gold watch that he gave to me. I
The Luna's Prey Chapter 58: The Luna's Mate
(Alexandra)I GLANCED at Beatrix while I was driving. The weight of another heartbreak that she was bearing was shown on her face. I had seen that expression before. That was also what she looked like when her mate died.“I’ve been a fool. I’m so sorry for not realizing it sooner, Xandra. I failed you and the pack. I feel so ashamed. I want to die from humiliation.”I had seen Kenji’s expression whenever he would look at Beatrix and the latter was not aware. That was how Luther would gaze at me, too. Maybe it was not one-sided. Kenji might have fallen in love with Beatrix along the way. But that love did not placate the deep-seated anger he had been harboring for both werewolves and humans.When I heard her sob, my free hand reached out to hers and gave it a light squeeze. I learned that from Luther. During the emergency meeting this afternoon, Beatrix had been grilled by the Alpha as well.In the morning, Clay found an envelope outside their house. There was no sender written on the
