Xander's POVI wiped my face with my right hand from disbelief and grief. We had, we had a child and we didn't even know about it. He was gone before we even got the chance to rejoice in his existence. We didn't even have the chance to try... Why... why do the people around me keep dying and leaving me? Am I really that unwanted?Sasha was still crying in front of me, from a mixture of emotions; sadness, guilt, shame, horror, and grief. Our child, our dear child... I went beside Sasha and hugged her to console her. Just what kind of fucking game was faith trying to do with my life!Just when I've finally moved on from that toxic life I had lived. Just when I've finally moved on from the deaths of my grandparents. Just when I've finally moved on from the longing I had for Sasha for such a long time. And just when... Just when I've finally learned to fall in love again after all of those things I went through. Just when I've finally met Lilan...After she seemed to calm down, we said ou
Lilan's POVOh, my goddess. Oh, my freaking goddesses. Wait, no, I'm so sorry my dear goddesses, your royal highness. Just what is that bloody bastard playing at?! Goddess, I feel my face, no my whole body turning a bright shade of red with what he just did! Xander Evans just freaking kissed me! And he even dared to smirk at me after what he did?! And I couldn't even do anything now that he was holding my hand on our way back to the station!But then there I noticed, that energy, that oh-so-familiar energy that I could sense even from a mile farther than me. Ryan, that's Ryan's energy! Oh no, how could I have ever forgotten? Ryan is the next lycan king of all werewolf packs. Ryan, my one and only betrothed. Ryan, my mate. Ryan is a werewolf, who is widely known for their possessive behaviors. And Ryan, who has been following me ever since he came here...Oh dear, how could I have ever forgotten when it's a worry that I always have and carry every waking moment of my life here on Eart
"My decision is..." I sighed before I continued. "Xander, can I and Ryan talk for a moment privately?" "What? I-- Okay then. I'll just be at the café up front, got it?" I simply nodded then he walked towards the said cafe. When I know he was finally out of ear reach, I faced Ryan."Lilan, is something wrong? Why couldn't you say that you are engaged and can't be with him? This, this engagement, you know the great impact it will bring to your kingdom with whatever decision you're going to make right? I mean, there isn't even a decision you have to make here. I'm your mate! We have our mate bond. Our very own special bond, just between the two of us." He said. I sighed. He knew what was going through my head already. When I said my last words, he already knew what the decision was. "I'm so sorry, Ryan. I really am, and this pains me as much as it pains you..." I said teary-eyed already. "NO! You don't know just how painful this is! You don't because you know you have someone to catch
"What are we? Are we finally in a relationship?" I asked. My heart pounding so hard in my chest full of nervousness, of fear for the uncertainty of whatever his answer may be. "Of course. What did you think my answer would be? I mean do you want us to be in a relationship? Or was I just miscalculating things? Did I get the wrong signals? What? Because I thought you also love me back. And, and..." He answered stammering, looking at me worriedly frantic which made me sigh loudly in relief and just nodded at him. "I do, Xander. I also love you, a lot." He held both my hands lovingly and held them close to his face kissing them softly. "I'm sorry if I have never said or done anything worthy enough to assure you that I love you. But I do. I love you very much, Lilan." He said looking at me lovingly again then he cupped my face in both his hands to which I leaned my face."I love you. I do." He repeated again and again. Then he leaned towards me to kiss me slowly. Unlike earlier when our l
When the car came to a stop, I saw this huge two-story house with a black Lamborghini parked up front. We both walked toward the front porch. Xander noticed that I was fidgeting beside him in the unfamiliar place we were at. "Hey, are you okay?" He asked his eyes full of worry. "Oh, yeah, yeah. Of course, just that, where are we again?" I asked nervously. "Oh, I'm sorry. It just slipped my mind. Well, welcome to my humble abode!" He said cheerily."This is where you live?!" I asked surprised. He just answered me with a passing shrug like it wasn't a big deal. I mean the house is ginormous! "What about the black Lamborghini outside? Is that also yours?" He just answered me with another simple but this time a bit shy nod. He's not even making a big deal about his luxurious lifestyle. I just replied with a whistle."It's nothing. The house was something my grandparents left me. And the car was a gift from my stepfather as, I dare quote, the last act of fatherhood on his side now that I
He kissed me passionately but also gently, so full of love. He was so careful as if I was some priceless treasure that he has been wanting so badly and finally got. Xander lifted me onto the countertop in his kitchen without breaking contact on our lips. He was carefully exploring and ravaging every corner of my mouth. When he broke our contact I instantly flung open my eyes out of disappointment then that strange sound came out of my mouth again when he bit my earlobe. His lips slowly went down to my neck and then to my collarbone, never forgetting to leave a mark. When he reached my collarbone, he made a sound similar to mine, but deeper and much more full of lust. I guess I now finally know his favorite part of my body. My collarbone. He suddenly carried me so I shrieked out of surprise and wrapped my already weak legs around his waist. He was carrying me up the stairs without breaking contact with my body. When we finally reached his room he slammed and rammed me like a hung
To all Asian children there, you most likely already know what happened to dear Xander. *sigh. When he didn't have anything to do, he was forced to kneel with his arms raised above his head. Poor Xander. These days have been quite similar. Though we were, thankfully, excluded from the whole private between-us-only relationship. Once Xander was done with his duty we would always go out on dates, and maybe a few make-out sessions here and there.I've been staying a lot at Xander's place. So much so that at least half of my clothes are at his place and I already have my daily necessities there. It's like I'm already basically living there. But there are things that have been concerning me these days. Not in the mortal world but rather back home, the world of hex and myths. The wind, it's whispering, it's anticipating war, blood, and cries of pain in my home. I need to go home. I don't know what to tell them. Whether I should tell them the truth? How I should tell them the truth?I just c
Ah. I've been dreading the part ever since I found out about the news. I am now about to have a real one-on-one talk with Xander. I'm about to tell him the truth, right now. I took a deep breath before I realized something and started panicking. Oh, my goddess! I'm about to tell him the truth! Oh, goddesses. Fuck. Fuck. What am I going to do?!Okay. Breath in breath out, Lilan. Let's all calm down. You can talk to him in the same manner when you talked to Clarise. Shit! No, this is a whole lot different from talking with Clarise! This is Xander who we're talking about! "Hey, you okay?" Xander suddenly approached me and it scared the shit out of me. "What? Oh, yeah. Yeah. I'm totally fine!" I said laughing awkwardly. Okay, Lilan. Since he's here now might as well talk to him, right? Okay. Here goes nothing! "Hey, um Xan. I have something to talk to you about." I said stuttering out of the nervousness I was feeling. "Huh? Yeah, sure. Is there something wrong?" He said again with the sa
