Lahat ng Kabanata ng SINFUL LOVE: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

“He claimed you as his!!! Do you even know what that means?” Makeala exclaimed WITH excitement, circling Selena, who is now sitting solemnly on a single chair in her room “Actually, I do, Makeala. It means I’m just a mere property to them. That they can declare who owns me and who doesn’t– ping pong me according to their wish, as if I'm a slave in this pack. For your information, I am no one’s property!!!” Makeala jerked her head back in surprise at the twisted point of view. Selena could only expect much and sighed.“Makeala, I am really tired. My head is about to split open. So, if you would excuse me...” Makeala nodded and walked out of the room. Laying on the single bed without any interference, Selena’s thoughts tumbled free. For a minute, Orion was trying to talk her into eloping with him into the woods and Makeala had to come for protection. The next minute, Zaden crossed taking her away. The fact that she couldn’t fight him or in other words, bow to his wishes only mad

Kneeled in front of the dark hollow, the poor Samrat's wide eyes scrambled for any clue of civilization. “You are not sending me in first, are you?” Selena smiled sheepishly and when they nodded, her smile died off. With the act she put up there, she has no choice but to obey now, does she? She slowly turned around and looked carefully at the passage. A hand pushed her from behind, making her crawl into the sewer entry. Beyond the initial part, it widens big enough for an elephant to stand. The putrid smell revolts her. Sloshes beneath her feet draw multiple disgusting images but she noticed that the floor is solid, as if it's made out of cement or wood. Not even a few meters in, the breeze died down into a faint whirring buzz, isolating her from the world. She stretched her hand to her back and pulled the first thing she could grab. Orion came thudding, laying his chin on her shoulder. His breathing was shaky as they all focused on the front. Step by step,

Diffused light filtered through floating dark bundle of clouds helps to tone down the darkness. 2 pairs of footsteps crashing through long grasses, rampaging the fireflies, leaving behind the world as they know it.“Zaden, wait. Why are we running?” Selena said with panting breath“I need to talk to you before your wolf comes out” Crisp shuffled beneath their feet stilled “Then talk, don’t run” she pulled her hand which is in Zaden’s hands to halt him. She then grabbed her knees, trying to catch up with her breathing. Zaden thought for a while, frowning at her fragile state.“I’m sorry…for what happened this morning…” he finally came out with his words, having her full attention to him. Selena stood up slowly.“It’s fine…no big deal” Selena shrugged her shoulder. “No, it is. Orion was right. We have been...no…I have been pushing you really hard” his voice softened as he paced closer to her and she smiled with a swift blink that is adorned by the twinkles in her eyes. Sati

True to his promise, Zaden and the leader’s pack took or dragged Selena to the camping. And as expected, not even a drop of peace left in her brain that it began to literally ache. For time being, her mind-reading capability only works on protecting these 5 people. It might have worked for her father and brother as well, but there is no way of finding out since they are not with her. Zaden and Orion behaved as if they have vowed to make Selena suffer. They attended the girls, talked to them in private, and even gave them a welcoming hug– sending them down a swooning spiral. Their thought train wrecked hell in Selena, purely raw. She could never figure out how school girls, younger than her, could have known such vivid information about sex. If only their thoughts had been put to work all at once, Zaden and Orion would be ripped to pieces. Sophie was there too, as the teacher’s pet. The lake that they have chosen is Lake Thao, the same that allowed everyone to

Two days passed by slowly at the hospital. Selena's ribcage fused back well enough. Her neck compression pulls heavy on her head and needs a day or two to surpass. The splatter of red splotches on her eye has vanquished into thin air and the bruises begin too, still faintly altering her skin tone, though. Orion has been missing throughout this phase. Anger-induced fear for other’s safety had left him on 4 feet, roaming the only place that could smother his depression and angst. The forest and their hidden portions, of course. The other pack leaders, especially Zaden, had been helpful and kept her company throughout the supposedly dreadful stay. She squirmed in his arms, stressing her ability to walk, again and again. But it slips off his ears. Actually, it slips overhead of the whole leader's pack, who insists and offered a hand in exchange. The brick house that sourced anxiety months ago has had a facelift. Warm, cozy, inviting and simply stood mighty as a wel
