LOGINI’d told Kain today I was too busy to watch the execution of the girl which led him to shift the date. So I had to play the part of being too busy today. Though, I still didn’t know what I was going to do. Finding out where she was being kept was not going to be easy. I swaggered into a deck area where a few were relaxing under the friendly sun and the fresh scent of sea water.Information was what I needed but Kain was the only familiar face there. And where he laid, a lady in a bright yellow bikini was next to him. They were chatting and giggling happily.When Kain’s eyes met mine, he looked away. Yup. He was angry at me. I’d felt it in that final look he threw me when I guiltily fled the scene yesterday.And I was not sure about his sudden attitude or if I was supposed to apologize to him. It was not like we were in a real relationship.Besides I wasn’t even sure this was working. I thought if Landon thought me and Kain were together, he’d back off. But he’s gotten even bolder t
Recently, he’s not been eating with the group. I didn’t think he was going to join them tonight but now—My heart began that familiar frantic race. Especially when I thought about our last encounter and the things he’d done to me. The dirty things he whispered in my ears, the promises of bliss as his fingers pleasured me and how I’d lost myself totally to him.Warmth pooled intensely in my stomach and I tried hard to ignore it. Landon didn’t take the empty seat after Kain. Instead he stepped behind me, scowling down at Leo who hastily gave up his seat to him. What a bully. I scoffed, watching as Landon took the seat and now he was seating at my right hand side, while Kain sat at my left. Once again, I was wedged between them. I ignored it just as we were served piping hot meals. I felt like a starved animal as I quickly dug in but I didn’t forget my original intentions of being here. Yet, I didn’t know how to bring up the human girl without raising suspicion. Leo was helping me d
It was getting dark and it was so cold. The wind whipped through my hair and penetrated through my skin, chilling my blood and all I could do was wrap my arms around my body, shivering as I approached the loud whirring noise coming from the ship’s engine room. It was the only place I thought of. The only place I know people wouldn’t often go. I paused at the threshold, then looked around to make sure I was alone before stepping inside. The heat hit me first. Not as harsh as I imagined but warm enough to make me sweat. I started rethinking my decision but I still looked around, carefully. The deep mechanical roar and endless churning rhythm of the machine would make it difficult to detect other sounds and the heavy smell of oil was strong enough to cloud their heightened senses which meant even if anyone came in here, it’d hard for them to detect a person. Now, I only needed to find a hidden place. But as I looked and looked, there was no space. The room was tight with severa
When Brielle finally visited me, I’d long forgotten my original intentions for seeking her out earlier. I was plagued with the thoughts of that innocent girl quietly waiting for death. “I heard a human girl was caught today.” I blurted out without thinking and Brielle pinned me with a look.“How did you know?”“What do they plan to do to her?”Brielle shrugged. “What else if not the usual? By the way Alpha Kain caught this one himself.”I knew that. My heart was still racing and my palms were sweaty from anxiety. “She is a girl.” I said but it was more like a question. “How old?”“About seventeen?”God!“Why are you so interested in her? The less you know, the better for you. She’ll be executed in a few days and you know what you have to do, don’t you?”Of course I do. I needed to pretend like I enjoyed every single bit of the human’s blood that was spilled. But what did that get me last time? More blood being spilled.I couldn’t stomach the thought of it. I needed to… I needed to
“What were you doing here?” He asked again, eyes narrowed.I shrugged and told him. “I just came for some fresh air. And I don’t understand why you don’t believe me.”“So you didn’t follow me?”“Why would I do that?” I asked him and stepped closer, “What are you hiding Kain?” It seemed like cowering was only going to make him press me more. “Nothing.” He said, “I don’t like it when someone invades my privacy.”The look he gave me told me he was thinking about when I had touched his phone without his permission.“I’m sorry.” I said, “I didn’t mean to—“His eyes softened and he released me, stepping back a little.“I do owe you an apology myself.” He started, “I should have believed you earlier. I just couldn’t imagine Emily would hurt someone I cared about.”I swallowed hard, looking at him. Was he talking about me? He… he cared about me?“I’ll make it up to you.” He continued, kissing my knuckles as his eyes found mine and he grinned. It made me wonder what he had planned out.“What
Brielle was very busy when I spotted her. She was holding a full tray of food and slowly shook her head at me when our eyes jammed which meant, now wasn’t a good time. But I was desperate for answers. Desperate to know what this thing was that Landon was doing to me. I was confused about the way I felt for him. The way I could barely resist his temptations. The way he could easily have me wrapped around his fingers. I wanted to understand it. With nothing else to do, I went to the top deck of the ship. It was quieter here. With only the sound of crashing waves. The wind was stronger too. It blew my hair back and I struggled to keep my skirt from flying all over the place. I stood there for a while, my emotions settling to a calm. For a moment, I just thought about Annie, my gold digging ex boyfriend, my once normal life and everybody in it. And I swore I’d go back and forget everything that has ever happened here. Completely. I turned around to head back inside when my eyes happ
I turned and ran out of Landon’s room. The man was a devil. He was sin and temptation and whatever was forbidden wrapped in one.I was losing my mind. He was making me lose my mind and I wasn’t sure how much longer I could hold it together. I bumped into someone when I turned a corner and as I loo
It wasn’t like I thought Landon didn’t have a sex life. I mean, he was tall, handsome and incredibly hot. Women would die at his feet for a chance to be touched by him. So why was I so surprised?Why did my chest suddenly tighten like someone was squeezing it trying to suffocate me?“I… I…” I trie
Day 5/30Narayah’s pov. One thing about the food here was that it was always so delicious, nothing like what I was used to in my own world.I wondered if they had a secret recipe unique only to werewolves. Or if the food contained a flavor that was forbidden to humans.Anyway, I was starving. And
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
