Fur Goblin

My sister, Fiona Miller, has recently opened a luxury spa for business. As such, I bring Dad along to check it out. Of course, we pick the most expensive treatment package available. But barely a few presses from the male therapist, and Dad feels a sharp pain in his chest and can't seem to breathe properly. All the color drains from his face, and cold sweat starts beading on his forehead. I call the manager over, but he seems annoyed. "Oh, he just has poor blood circulation. He'll be fine after the massage. That's just a normal reaction." I can't believe what I'm hearing. "My father has a heart condition. What are you lot even doing to him?" The manager, Seth Zeller, explodes as if I've insulted him and raises his voice. "That's his own pre-existing condition. How is that our problem? We run a legitimate business here. No refunds once treatment begins. Got it?" I gesture at the credentials displayed on the wall. "I don't see your name anywhere up there. You're not even certified. Is this the kind of operation Fiona's running?" Seth folds his arms across his chest, looking down his nose at us. "I'm the boss here. You and your dad look broke as hell. I can tell you're just trying to get a free massage and walk out without paying." "Let me spell it out for you. This package is 38,000 dollars. Adding in the cost of my emotional distress and lost time, the total is 100,000 dollars. Pay up now, or I'm having you both arrested." A massage that almost kills Dad costs 100,000 dollars? So that's why Fiona was suddenly so eager to open this spa. As it turns out, she and her boyfriend are running a fraud scheme. I reach for my phone to call her, but Seth is already making a video call. "Babe, you need to get here right now. A couple of deadbeats are trying to get a free massage and walk away without paying."

I thought I was finally living my dream—studying at the same school as my childhood boyfriend. But the moment I caught him secretly kissing the campus queen who had always bullied me, my world shattered. He didn’t defend me. He chose her. Heartbroken and humiliated, I walked away. Then at my lowest, when I was cornered and shoved to the ground again, my face smeared with dirt, I saw him—my mate. The queen bee’s perfect fiancé. The future Alpha of the strongest pack. Yet his eyes were cold as he told me, “Keep our mate bond a secret. I will never be with you.” I did what he said. But why did he keep stepping in to protect me? Why did he hold me like he would never let go?

In the labyrinth of a tumultuous marriage, Hazel Stewart had grown accustomed to the biting edge of Benjamin Lucas's sarcasm, weathered the storm of his recurrent divorce threats, and reluctantly tolerated his secret liaison. For three long years, she believed she could navigate this tempest indefinitely. Then, a twist of fate brought an unexpected life into the equation—Hazel found herself pregnant with a child Benjamin vehemently disowned. In a moment of despair, Hazel inked the divorce agreement, seeking an escape from the toxic bond. Little did she anticipate that leaving would be the beginning of a haunting chase. While she hoped to vanish into the shadows of separation, Benjamin, refusing to accept defeat, became an enigmatic pursuer, leaving Hazel to wonder if her liberation came at the cost of a relentless, ominous pursuit.

Ahhhhh...... Tama na Luther maawa ka, maawa ka sa magiging anak natin... Umiiyak na pagmamakaawa ni Abby ng maramdaman niya na tumama sa likod niya ang latigo na inihampas sa kanya ng kanyang asawa na si Luther. Puro pasa na din ang aking mukha at katawan sa walang tigil na pananakit nito sa akin. Sobrang sakit nito at pakiramdam ko matatanggal pati balat ko tuwing hinahampas sa akin ang latigo na gamit nito. Nakadapa ako sa lapag habang walang tigil sa pananakit sa akin si Luther. May mga bakas na din ng dugo sa sahig na nanggaling sa akin. "Your Slut Abby... Pagbabayaran mo ang lahat ng ito. Alam mong ayaw ko sa lahat ang niloloko ako. Sigaw ni Luther sa akin sabay hawak sa aking mukha ng mariin at sinampal ako. Halos mabagok ang ulo ko sa sahig sa lakas ng impact nito. Nandito kami sa basement ng mansion. Alam kong walang makakarinig sa akin kahit na ilang beses akong sumigaw para humingi ng tulong. Parang mga bingi ang mga tauhan ni Luther sa pagmamakaawa ko. Mariin kong ipinikit ang aking mga mata. Hindi ko na mabilang kong ilang suntok, sampal, at latigo ang tumama sa aking katawan. Siguro kailangan ko ng tanggapin na hanggang dito na lang ako. Marahan kong kinapa ang aking tiyan. "Sorry anak, hindi kita magawang ipagtanggol. Siguro hanggang dito na lang tayo. Pangako mamahalin kita sa kabilang buhay." anas ko sabay pikit.

What I will do, if I ever find a good group of loners, is lead them in a fight against the corrupt packs leading the world today. If only I could find any other loners out here...
