LOGIN“Nara, can you hear me?” Brielle’s voice sounded so distant, beyond the ringing in my head. My head was pounding and aching so badly. Tears streamed down my face and I didn’t know how much time passed but I kept repeating to myself.“I wanted to leave.”I should’ve just left this ship when I went with Kain. After a while, I fell asleep and my sleep was plagued with bloody dreams of Gavin. It wasn’t like that was the first time I was seeing a bloody scene but I was drugged and upset and raging only to witness that. Gavin’s bloody body was twisted in a weird angle, and he kept pointing at me and telling everyone.“She’s human. She has to die.”And then everyone turned towards me, their judgemental eyes accessing me, wondering if I was telling the truth.“I’m not human.” I found myself, whispering, shaking as the murmurs of the crowd overlapped and I could suddenly hear was a loud ringing in my eyes that woke me up.****When I opened my eyes again, Brielle was no longer by my side b
“It’s Gavin.” Brielle answered before I could say anything and I looked at her like she’d just betrayed me. Landon didn’t need to hear any more. He turned around and left. “Wait!” I called her and tried to go after him but my legs were still weak from whatever Kain drugged me with. I couldn’t move quickly and Brielle had to help me up. “Landon!” I called but he was gone.I struggled forward, hurrying after him as he stormed off. He looked like he was going to kill and Gavin was about to have a really bad day. “Take me.” I pleaded to Brielle. “Take me to him.”She guided me forward, where Landon had disappeared into. We walked past the restaurant where we used got our food from and to an inner room. Everyone was curious about the commotion but they didn’t follow thankfully. Only Emily and the rest were curious and came with us, following Landon. I was too slow and by the time I got there, Gavin’s face was already bloody. His hand was bent in a weird angle and he was on his knees,
Kain got to the spot i pointed to and circled over it. It was a pole with a flag on it stretching out from deep under the water. The ride was nerve wracking. I didn’t realize how afraid of water I was until I was finally on this boat. I was holding on to Kain so tight that I thought I might tear off his jacket. “There.” I pointed again. “Let’s go there.”I thought at this point, he was going to ask me why I wanted to go there but Kain was unusually quiet and just followed my command. And so like that, I guided us further and further away from the ship that seemed to be my worst nightmare. Even when we got to this other pole, I still couldn’t catch a glimpse of land. Jus how far were we? “Do you think we could go further?” I said and Kain just obeyed which was strange. My common sense was telling me something was wrong with Kain but I didn’t want to listen or question why he was obeying my every command without saying a word. At this point, I could barely see the ship. It was on
A knock sounded on the door and I frowned.“It’s me.” I heard Landon’s voice and finally felt relieved before I moved to open the door. I was so on edge already. Landon walked inside.“What are you doing there. You should go back to your—“He claimed my lips hungrily, his hands gonging around my waist and growling possessively as I returns the kiss. My heart was racing, beating wildly as he his hands slipped under dresses, hiking it up. I stood on my tiptoed, my hand around his neck, my back arched as I kissed him with the same intensity. The same hunger. I could never get used to how he made me feel. No words were exchanged between us. And there wasn’t a need for them. I fumbled with his buttons as he guarded me towards the bed. His broad chest greeted my view. I couldn’t help running my fingers through his body. He was hard, and big and felt good to touch. My dress wouldn’t come off easily because of how tight It was so Landon just ripped it off me and I gasped in surprise.
“Can you watch where you’re going?” She snapped and I shrugged my shoulders.“My fault.” I plastered a fake smile on my face. “But you don’t have to be so rude. You also weren’t watching your front.”Emily paused, frowning at me before she leaned forward and whispered, “I’d never apologize to your kind.” She said with enough disdain to trigger my rage.“Good.” I said coldly. “Because I don’t need an apology from a shallow, fake person. The apology would also be fake and filthy so why bother?”I shouldn’t have said that and could’ve been the bigger person who just left without causing a scene but I was already feeling pissed off and on edge. Emily scoffed. “Aren’t those big words coming from someone as weak as you?”“How do you define weakness? By physical strength? Because that’s all you seem to have and can be proud of.”“Don’t you think that alone makes me superior?”“No, I don’t.” I said, “It doesn’t make you superior, it just makes you… different. Do you know what that means?” I
I swallowed hard, staring at him. “What do you want?”“Why did you run from me?” He asked, his voice deep and very close. Too close.I scoffed. “Why would I run from you?”“You tell me.”“I simply wanted to use the restroom.” I lied.“You ran here like something was chasing you.”“And maybe I was right to run then.” I raised a brow, “Why are you here, Alpha Marcus, blocking my way?”“I wanted to talk to you but since you ran, I had no choice but to wait here.”I shifted a little bit away from him and then crossed my arms. "I'm very sure we have nothing to talk about.”“Not for someone looking to be your friend.”“I’m not in need of one.”“But I happen to be.” He smirked and I backed another step away, remembering what he told me that day when he forced me to talk to him.He said he had tamed many women like me and wouldn’t mind stealing me from Landon. He straight up declared his intentions and right now, I was trapped. It was just us here and if he decides to do anything to me, I wo
A strong hand was wrapped around my neck, slowly squeezing the life out of me as I was pressed into a hard surface.My eyes flew open, instantly meeting with golden ones. But it wasn’t as familiar as I thought. There were specks of red in his eyes and he was shaking, too angry, like he wanted to un
I started to bring the glass to my mouth but by some saving grace— well, I wasn’t sure if the woman that was approaching us with Emily holding her arm was a good sign or bad sign but it definitely stopped me from drinking.“You!” A snarky voice called and I noticed how even Harold stiffened.I inst
I slapped Landon.One of the monsters that could easily tear me apart here on this ship.The moment I realized that the reason he kissed me, was just to prove a point to Kain, I felt stupid that I’d just fallen into his arms the moment he made a move and anger consumed me.Now I regretted it. Every
At night, I was all alone in my room. Kain didn’t return. Brielle too. My head was still pounding. My chest still felt tight with anger. But I could do nothing about it except lie in my bed pathetically. When I couldn’t take it anymore, I moved to the balcony. The lights seemed to have gone off
