The Spider's Thread

I loved Alpha Lucien Grey with all my heart. From the moment I first saw him, I was drawn to him. However, I always knew the one Lucien loved was someone else. Her name was Summer White. I thought I’d be like one of those tragic side characters in romance stories—forever on the sidelines, watching the man I loved build a life with another woman. However, everything changed three years ago when Summer ran away on the night of the marking ceremony, saying she wasn’t ready to be claimed. Lucien had to make a decision and announced he would find a new partner. So, I stepped forward. Wearing a dress that didn’t quite fit, my hands trembling, I stood in for Summer. That day, Lucien and I formed a bond as mates. For the past three years, Lucien had treated me with warmth and kindness. He was gentle and thoughtful. He took care of me in every way. However, just over a month ago, Summer came back to our pack. On the night of our anniversary, she got drunk and called Lucien in tears, sobbing that she regretted everything. Lucien’s hands were shaking so hard he almost dropped his phone, but he didn’t hang up. He just stood there, torn. When his eyes met mine, full of confusion and pain, I took his hand—still trembling—and said softly, “Go to her.” The moment he left, I filed the mate-bond termination papers at City Hall, requesting to break the bond. After all, these years of stolen happiness were never really mine to keep. It was time for me to leave, too.

He had seen her glancing back. It wouldn't do to scare her this early on. He turned right as she crossed the street. Cole Baxter had never followed a woman before, especially a human. He'd never had the need, females usually came to him. As a Beta in the local pack he could find a woman whenever he felt the need, and he usually felt the need quite often. But if he knew his wolf, that was going to change. He could feel his wolf in his mind pacing, wanting to follow his mate closely in case any other males got too close. Cole had to remind him that they couldn't just jump her on the street. His wolf would have to learn patience. He'd been waiting for her for close to 200 years, no reason to over react now. He caught sight of her from two blocks down and continued to follow until she turned into the front door of a medical clinic. He stood outside the door and glanced inside. He couldn't see her so he waited around the corner. After what seemed like an eternity, she came walking out with a male who stared straight at him with bright blue eyes. Cole realized immediately this wasn't a human, he was a Were, one of his kind. The male was holding his mate by the waist, and Cole automatically growled, ready to tear the wolf's throat out to get him away from her. Wait, his mate? Maybe he was too late. Maybe she was already mated. His heart was pounding as he watched them walking down the street. He couldn't believe he had waited this long to find his mate only to lose her to another.

“I want blood,” Rowan said, and suddenly his fingers pierced deep into my chest. The feeling of pain was almost non-existent but I could feel life slipping away from me. Blood gurgled in my mouth and it flowed from the corner of my mouth. “Why Rowan?” I asked, but the answer to the question became even more obvious to me. My face was poise, graceful even at the face of death. “Why did you do this? Why did you betray me?” I asked him, my hands reaching up to cup his face and he leaned into my hand, snuggling his face. Then affectionately, like he hadn't just betrayed me, he leaned down to kiss my lips. “I love you, my queen, but I'm tired of your benevolent rule, tired of drinking that disgusting artificial blood. I want a killing spree, I want suck my fangs into human's warm blood vessels! Slave them!” Rowan said, his face suddenly tainted with anger, one that also left as quickly as it came. “I'm surprised you think you would succeed,” I said, trying to laugh but it only made the blood flow faster. I was getting drained of blood really quickly. “You won't succeed,” I said, laughing disdainfully, “I will take revenge on you, tear you to pieces!” Rowan grinned, saying mockingly, “I look forward to your return, your majesty!” As soon as his words fell off his mouth, his arm swiftly and accurately pierced my chest, precisely digging out my heart. Blooms of blood appeared on the bed sheet, like some kind of cruel artwork. “Moon Goddess, please give me a chance to be reborn!” I silently pleaded, just before my heart was harvested. At this moment, the dazzling full moon suddenly emitted a blinding white light.

Angel membawa semua jiwaku pergi saat kematiannya. Kami saling mencintai tapi Tuhan lebih mencintainya. Aku tidak bisa menggantikannya dengan siapa pun. Aku benci menjadi pria tidak berguna, bahkan tidak bisa menyembuhkan penyakitnya. Atau mengurangi rasa sakit yang dideritanya. Penyakit Kanker serviks stadium akhir. Mengantarnya pada keabadian. Sampai gadis ceroboh tapi ceria mengusik ketenanganku... Aku sangat membencinya karena membuatku terpengaruh akan kehadirannya. Bahkan dia masih sangat belia...apalagi statusnya yang masih saudara sepupu dari iparku membuatku enggan menjalin hubungan dengan gadis itu. Aku berusaha mengabaikan kehadirannya, tapi semakin kuhindari dia seperti lintah menempel disisiku terus... Dasar gadis ceroboh keras kepala. Austin Gerald Klein Aku melihatnya dengan kekasihnya, wanita yang cantik dengan binar kebahagiaan di manik matanya, dia selalu tersenyum diantara kondisinya yang tidak sempurna, wanita itu bahkan duduk diatas kursi roda dan yang kudengar sedang sakit. Aku mencintai Austin sejak pertama kali bertemu. Tapi aku bukan gadis perusak suatu hubungan, aku tahu batasanku walau aku masih belia. Jadi kurasa aku hanya MENGAGUMI. Aku tidak mau bersaing dengan wanita yang bahkan sedang berjuang demi kesembuhannya, dan dia membutuhkan Austin untuk kesembuhannya. Aku berdoa untuk kebahagiaan mereka. Aku pergi menjauh membawa rasa patah hatiku. Cintaku harus layu sebelum berkembang. Amanda Patricia Dexter Aku bersyukur di sisa hidupku aku bisa melaluinya dengan orang yang paling kucintai. Aku merasa tidak pantas untuknya.... Tapi aku ingin egois untuk terakhir kalinya. Aku tak akan melepasmu Austin. Aku membutuhkanmu.... Aku tahu ada satu gadis yang harus patah hati karena kebersamaan kita. Maaf Amanda aku menyayangimu tapi aku akan mengakhiri hidupku bersama Austin . Hanya untuk sisa umurku, bersabarlah... Amanda - Austin. Angela Jennar
