MasukKelly's pov, I was stunned when I woke up and found myself on my bed, rather than Séraphine’s room. I thought, maybe it was a dream, but… what was Caleb doing in my dream with that worried expression in his eyes as he stared at me?And… What was the meaning of the story he just told me?“What is going to happen to me now, Caleb?! How- how can I get rid of the tonic in my body!”. I stuttered as I demanded of Caleb. I could not believe what had happened to me. It was yesterday. I remember bringing the tonic Caleb had prepared to Séraphine. My aim was for Séraphine to get fat, useless, and lose her wolf. But I never imagined how everything turned upside-down and backfired against me.It wasn't fair! I didn't remember fainting. And why did she have to feed the tonic to me? She should have gotten me a cup of water instead. I fell to my knees on the ground, as tears streamed down both sides of my cheeks. My heart was pounding violently against my chest, while I felt goosebumps in
“This… I don't know what to say, Zora”. I said to her and ran my fingers through my hair. The news of Zora and Kyle's mate bond was something I had never for once imagined or thought about. It felt surreal. “Do you love him?”. The question slipped out of my lips. “Well? Aren't you going to give me an answer, Zora?”. I asked her. “I love him”. Zora replied to me, making me sigh in defeat. “Does he love you back?”. I asked, making her turn to me. “Yes. He does. I am just bothered that you might not like our union”. Zora chuckled as she said to me softly. Even if it was in the blink of an eye, I saw Zora's eyes twitch. And combined with the way she couldn't maintain eye contact with me, I knew she was telling a lie. Kyle didn't love her back. It was a one-sided love. But, I did not plan on telling her off about it. I did not plan on telling her to reject Kyle because of it. It was never in my place to do that. She seemed to love Kyle, and advising her to let him go would be poi
“Wait, what? Are you trying to tell me Kelly almost poisoned you?”. Zora's eyes widened in shock, before she held my shoulders and asked with a stutter, “Are- are you hurt anywhere?”. I chuckled lightly. “No, Zora. She never succeeded. Something came up, and I fed her the poison instead. But, she had no idea that I was aware of the poison”. I said to her, while assuring her with a smile. Zora didn't look convinced. She continued to stare at me with doubtful eyes. She even went as far as getting up from bed, as she continued to check up on my body. “I am really alright, Zora. There's really nothing for you to worry about”. I said to her, and because she wasn't listening to me, I grabbed her hand. “Stop and look at me”. I said to her. Finally, she stopped panicking, and her pair of green eyes, which were filled with the most sincere love, stared back into my eyes. “Kelly didn't hurt me, Zora. Besides, I let her have a taste of her own medicine. The thing is, I have no idea what the
“Séraphine? What are you doing here?”. Zora asked me, and hearing her gentle voice caused the tears I had tried to suppress stream down my face. “Zora”. I said as I took a step closer to her. But, she stepped back, and that made me halt. “I am sorry. I didn't mean to address you by your name, Luna Séraphine”. Zora bowed her head at me as she apologized. That only made me feel more awful than I already was. “I- I am sorry, Zora!”. I said to her as I maintained my distance from her. I didn't want her to step away from me. That only broke my heart and made me feel awful because of what I had done to her. I knew I was guilty. I knew I had foolishly allowed Kelly to deceive me. “I am so sorry, Zora. I should have believed you. I should have taken your side. I shouldn't have believed one side of the story. Most especially… I should not have said those horrible words to you”. I added, and seeing her eyes get red, I grew the courage to walk closer to her. My heart pounded against my c
Séraphine's pov, My eyes were fixed on the stars in the sky as I remained quiet. That was my way of ignoring Daxter at the moment. But I did not understand why he would not leave even after being ignored. I grew annoyed by his presence and shut my eyes tightly, as I swallowed my frustration. What did I even see in a man like him? He had never for once defended me or taken my side, yet, I yearned for his affection like a thirsty fool in search of water to drink. ‘Can we go for a run? It's been far too long’. Sarah's voice came through my head. ‘Sure’. I replied to her without hesitation, as I needed that. I needed to be away from Daxter. I turned away and left the balcony, heading to my closet. I noticed Daxter's gaze on me as I walked away. To think he would suddenly pay attention to me after months of ignoring me… what was wrong with him?Did my return change everything? I wondered, but something else did not quite settle in for me, and I began to think about it after I got
I hurried to our bedroom and pushed the door open as I stood in front of it, before I entered. Although it was evening, the room was bright, as the windows were opened, with the light from the bright moon penetrating. I halted when I saw her standing on the balcony, with her silver hair which resonated with the night, swaying back and forth. The weather was quite cold. I sighed, braced myself, and tried to swallow my anger as I walked towards her and stood by her side. I did not say anything to her for the next few seconds because I had expected her to say something to me first. But, that moment never came because she ignored me like I was a wall figure. I had to break the silence between us. “What happened to you, Séraphine?”. “Why do you suddenly feel different in my eyes?”. I asked her, hoping for an answer, because I could tell that this was not the same cheerful and beautiful young lady I had gotten married to two years ago after she awakened her wolf on her eighteenth bir
