Chapter: Chapter 99Ferguson’s POVJonathan and I left the room and headed straight to the station, “the nurse that attacked Stella was part of the black web.”“What...” Jonathan spat out his drink, “bro, I thought they had gone existence, how... when, who am I kidding, your father is definitely involved.”“Let’s not jump into conclusion just yet, we don’t know if I have more enemies,” I said calmly, my hands tight on the wheel.“Yeah... I would like to know which of your enemies is powerful enough to invoke sch a crazy gang.”I let out a deep a tired shaky breath, “I know where you're heading but let’s still have faith that my dad ain’t that insane.”“I wonder if you are hearing the words that are coming out from your mouth cause it’s funny to me.”The car became silent again and we drove straight to the station, “I’ll be out in a second, help me check out some good bodyguards service.”“Already on it sire,” he saluted as I let out a soft chuckle.I headed straight into the station, “I’ve been expecting

Chapter: Chapter 98Ferguson’s POVThe monitor kept beating softly reminding us that there was still life, Megan kept forwarding some pitiful glances towards me but Jimmy... if he was allowed, he would throw me off the hospital roof without a second thought and that’s a hundred percent valid.“I need to go out for a second, keep an eye on him,” Jimmy said loud enough for me to hear, I was still sat next to Stella who was fast asleep.The minute Jimmy left, Megan placed her hand on my shoulder, “she wouldn’t want you to worry and you didn’t expect something like that to happen, if anyone should get guilty, it should me, I invited her out and hence... this.”Her voice broke, she was trying hard not to cry, I raised my hand to pat her palm, “thanks... I need to use the restroom, I’ll be out soon,” she turned and left.I took out my phone to call Jonathan; we need to end these stunts before it’s gets too messy, after the first ring, he picked up then a nurse came in to attend to Stella.“Hey man, were you ab

Chapter: Chapter 97Stella’s POVI needed a break.The last several days were a blur. Ferguson playing that nothing had happened, Jonathan giving weird hints every opportunity he had, me playing the role of not falling even harder for someone who did not even know how deeply he occupied my heart.And so, when Megan rang me again in the morning, I said yes and I could do nothing to stop myself.“I’ll come over,” I told her.She squealed through the phone. “Finally! Wear something cute, we’re going out for brunch.”I smiled a little. “Megs, it’s just brunch.”“Yeah, with me. That’s always an event.”Ferguson was in his office when I peeked in. He looked up immediately. “Where are you going?”“Megan’s,” I said, grabbing my purse. “She’s been nagging me nonstop.”His brows drew together slightly. “You sure you’re okay to go alone?”I laughed softly. “I’m not a child, Ferguson.”He sighed. “Just… be careful.”“I will.”I didn't wait for him to argue. Perhaps, I needed to remind him that I had a world to go. O

Chapter: Chapter 96Ferguson’s POVI wasn’t supposed to hear it.But I did.Her voice was low, careful, almost scared to be honest but the words hit harder than any bullet ever could.She liked me.Or maybe she didn’t.Hell, I didn’t even know anymore. All I knew was that hearing her talk about “playing safe” made something in me twist.I sat there, with my eyes half shut and my head on her shoulder, and I was acting asleep when my head. The closeness of her voice, how she was whispering on the phone to Megan, it was too realistic.“You can’t leave him or you’re in love with him, which one?”That was what her friend said.And when Stella didn’t answer right away… yeah, that silence said everything.And when Stella did not answer so immediately... that was all you needed to know.I had a desire to open my eyes and say that I experienced it the same.It was that I should not be sleeping because I was tired, but because I could not continue to look at her without wanting more.After she hung up I could have

Chapter: Chapter 95Stella POVI don’t know why I chose to wear his hoodie, but I just felt it was comfortable and the right thing to wear.But his expression made me rethink some things, “should I go take it off?” I asked calmly, we were already in a pickle, I didn’t want it to make it worse.“No...” he stuttered a bit, like he was somehow entranced by me, “you look good in it... have a seat, let’s have dinner,” he drew out a seat for me.“Thank you,” my voice came in more like a whisper, “so are we like having pizza or chicken?”He burst into a crazy laugh making me look awkward, “I’m sorry but no...” he went into the kitchen and brought out a tray of food.He simply placed it on our table and headed back to get wine and sat calmly, “I know you have been stressed out taking care of me since the incident and I don’t know if there’s a better way to tell you that I’m grateful than taking care of you as well.”“And that’s by calling a restaurant and getting them to deliver a high-class meal to the house...

Chapter: Chapter 94Ferguson’s POV*A WEEK LATER*A breath of relaxation escaped my lips when the doctor changed the final stitch, it’s been a whole week since the incident, Claudia left without a word and Stella became bossier than ever.I don’t blame her though; I’m a bit stubborn but I have a freaking company to run.“So, doc, can I finally do some work? Like actual work,” I said, the side of my eyes facing Stella.The doc let out a small laugh after noticing my facial direction, “yes you can, but you still need to be careful, you don’t want a third tear.”Stella raised her face like she had just won an invisible battle, “thanks doc, I keep telling him, but you know...” she faced me with a wide grin on her face, “men.”Is that supposed to be a diss or a compliment...The doctor chuckled softly, scribbling down something on a piece of paper, “you’ll need to get this at the pharmacy,” he handed it over to Stella.Great! More drugs...She nodded gently as the doctor quietly left the room, Stella quickly

WYMOND, THE CURSED BEAST
No one has seen him,
No one can tell what he looks like,
No one can tell if he's human, wolf, dragon, elf or vampire.
We've only heard his very deep, hoarse voice that doesn't sound so humanly.
We only know he's a ruthless beast,
And that beast is the king of all supernatural creatures -he is King Wymond.
He is an abomination -a mistake made by the moon goddess.
There are rumors that he is immortal -are there still any immortals in this age?
He walks the lands every night and kills any soul that crosses path with him or it,
He never lets anyone see him and doesn't attend public meetings.
He's always inside his palace, with those two big gates locking him away and isolating him from the world.
Weird!
How did he ended up becoming the king then?
Every five years, girls who have come of age (18years to 25years), from different species (werewolves, vampires, witches, elves and dragons) are taken to his palace.
We don't know why they are taken there,
And we dare not ask why, because asking why is death penalty.
And strangely, all the girls taken to the palace always come back alive, but they end up losing their memories of what had happened in there.
No one has enough courage to investigate and find out what's going on -investigating is like walking into the valley of death.
These are stories my grandma always told me when I was a kid, I don't know if they are real or if she was saying those things just to scare me.
But I still couldn't help but wonder if it's true,
Why does those girls end up losing their memories?
Could there be a deep secret behind those closed, big gates?

Chapter: Chapter 103Arabella's point of view. (EVERGREEN PACK _ BEACH SIDE)"I do" Alpha Jarek said readily, with a fulfilled smile glowing on his face.It's so obvious how much he loves mom, everyone could see how eager he was to have mom as his wife and few people sniffled at his over excitement. "By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you man and wife" Old Sebastian said.Oh, yeah, Wymond made him officiate the wedding.He turned to Alpha Jarek and nodded towards mom. "You may kiss your bri..." Alpha Jarek didn't wait for him to complete his words, he hurriedly reached out his hands, held mom's face tenderly and crashed his lips on hers, which caused everyone present to roar in laughter. Arthur gagged beside me and quickly turned his eyes away from them."I can't fuçking watch that old man sucking off mom's face" he said with a disgusted expression.I reached forward and smacked the back of his head, he hissed loudly and threw me a glare, but I care less.

Chapter: Chapter 102Arabella's point of view. (FOUR HOURS LATER)It took Renee and Daphne four whole hours to get me ready, they tried different makeups and gowns on me, all in the name of searching for the perfect look for me.And finally they found the perfect look, but that's after four hours and several trials."Now that's perfection!" Daphne clapped her hands.I rolled my eyeballs and sprang up, then checked myself out in the mirror and nodded in approval."Thanks darlings" I thanked them."Now to the ballroom!" Renee said in a funny french accent which made us laugh. ★★★★★The guards standing by the door pushed it open and all heads turned towards me, everyone's smiling happily and clapping their hands. I saw Daphne, Renee and Emily giving me thumbs up from their seats, which helped boosted my confidence and morale.Wymond's standing at the front with old Sebastian holding a knife and a small bowl next to him, if any human was here, they'd think we're having a wedding -the scenery seemed like a w

Isn't that Daphne and Renee's voice? What niece and godson are they fuçking talking about?"Ladies, ladies, please, it's not a niece, it's my nephew -why are y'all fighting over what's mine?" Arthur? Why is Arthur here? Wait, where am I? My last memory was back in the abandoned warehouse where we ended Oak's life and I passed out, yeah, maybe all these arguments are happening in my dream.I guess I've had enough sleep, it's time I wake up and... eat, I'm starving so bad.A tired yawn left my mouth as I stretched my stiff limps, I'm so tired as if I just had a very long sleep, then I snapped my eyes open, only to come face to face with about five pairs of eyes staring at me. Mom, Arthur, Daphne, Renee and another girl who's almost the same age as me, or maybe she's a little bit older than me but I don't recognize her -they wer

Chapter: Chapter 100Arabella's point of view. (Flashback)I had just finished telling Wymond about the maid whom I saw earlier, and how I have a feeling that she's Ingrid, I told him about investigating about the maid but he stopped and promised to handle it himself.Then we decided to retire to bed, but we were disturbed by a loud thud and sprang up at once, our heads snapped towards the direction the sound came from -the window.We heard someone whimpering and sniffling, Wymond hopped off the bed and walked towards the person, I followed quietly behind him thinking it's... I didn't even know what I was thinking then, but whatever it was, it was scaring me.But my mouth dropped open when we got close and I saw who it was."Ingrid?" I called.She raised her head, I was taken aback by her appearance. There were long red marks on her left cheek, there were also red marks on her neck as though she tried to commit suicide by hanging herself to death and her whole face was red as tears flooded every part of

Chapter: Chapter 99Third person's point of view. "That's our head doctor, professor Landon" Jones said, pointing to a man who seemed to be in his forties.King Wymond frowned as he narrowed his eyes and carefully studied the doctor who was injecting an old woman, he felt like something's off with the doctor but wasn't sure what it was.He tried to read the doctor's thoughts but couldn't, which made his frown deepened and he came to a conclusion.He moved his gaze from the doctor and looked around at the vampires who were affected by the plague, some were coughing non-stop, some had dark spots all over their skins and it seemed as if their skins were decaying.King Wymond opened his hand and a syringe needle moved from a tray into his palm, there's a bluish liquid inside the syringe, King Wymond quickly broke it in two parts and sniffed it, then cringed in disgust as he inhaled a very bad smell.He threw a disgusted glare at the doctor."I don't know if that guy looks like your head doctor, Landon, but

" Jone paused, sighed and shook his head in disappointment. ".. but the herbs aren't working anymore, no matter the amount we use, the plague just kept worsening everyday" he said.Wymond picked a herb and sniffed it, a frown appeared on his face at once."Who's the head doctor?" he asked."He's at the health center" Jones replied."Take me there" Wymond commanded and Jones nodded in agreement.He (Wymond) glanced at me and signaled me to follow them, I rolled my eyeballs as I grumbled coherently. I didn't wanna go with them, because I wanted to confirm something. *I don't wanna look behind and realize you're not following me, you wouldn't wanna know what I'm gonna do to you, baby* he warned me through our mind-link.*It's not as if I'm gonna do anything to help there**I just wanna be seeing you* he replied. *But...**No buts, baby!* he

Chapter: An Heartbeat For A Stranger. Ashley's point of view.>The Next Morning“... I'll be there right away, sir”My eyes snapped open when I heard Monique talking to someone on the phone, but they quickly flapped shut when they couldn't handle the bright light in my room. With furrowed brows, I slowly opened my eyes again, until they adjusted to the brightness. “... just five minutes, sir” she said.Five minutes to do what? I couldn't help but wonder.“Yes, sir” she spoke up again.Not wanting to guess what's going on, and also didn't want to be in a suspense, I hopped out of my bed and dashed out of my room barefooted as I headed straight for Monique's room where her voice was coming from. She was just done with her phone call, and was packing up what seemed to be a shawl in her luggage when I entered her room. I don't know if she knew I was there, or maybe she knew, and she's purposely ignoring me because she didn't even look in my direction… After all, our fight last night was pretty intense. Anyway, I cleared m

Chapter: Friend Or Stranger? Ashley's point of view.>Ashley's Apartment“Wow, I just created a masterpiece!” I heard Ben's excited voice from inside our apartment, immediately I reached the door.Monique scoffed mockingly, “Your masterpiece is nothing but pure poison” she badmouthed.My lips subconsciously curved into a smile because I already know what's going on inside, Ben must have created a new recipe and Monique doesn't think it's safe to eat it.“Poison?” There's a brief pause, and I could imagine he's trying to find the right words to use. “I wouldn't create a new recipe if I wanna poison you, that will be an utmost insult to my talent” he snarled.“You… You… Bastard!” Monique exclaimed.Knowing it's about to go down between them, I took that as my cue to step in, or I will definitely have a lot of cleaning to do after their battle. I quickly grabbed the knob, pushed the door open and stepped in.“Hey, guys, I'm home” I announced my presence, halting their movements. Monique was already lunging at Ben

Chapter: I Hate Drugs. Third person's point of view.>Ashley's Relaxation Center– he was still leaping a bit, though. But just when he was about jumping through the only window in the room, his body stilled as his ears caught Ashley's conversation with her friend on the phone, then he felt guilty for wanting to leave without thanking her for saving his life. He quickly retreated from the window and sat on the bed. Reaching in the inner pockets of his jacket, he pulled out his mobile phone and dialed a number, then waited impatiently for the receiver to pick up.“Hello?” the receiver finally picked up after a few rings.“Nathan” he called quietly.There was a brief pause. “Boss?” the receiver (now known as Nathan) called in a surprised, and somewhat relieved tone. “Where are you, boss?” he asked.“I'm f

Chapter: A Confused Mind. Ashley's point of view.>Ashley's Relaxation Center“Where's your wallet?” I nodded at his pants pocket, hoping to find some identification that could lead us to his family or friends. “Maybe we can know who you are if we check your ID” He stared blankly at me for a moment, then sighed and slowly, or perhaps I should say reluctantly, searched his pockets. I felt a glimmer of hope as he searched his pockets. Perhaps we could know who he was if we checked his ID. But as he searched his pockets, his expression grew more despondent.But every glimmer of hope that arose in me, flew out the window the moment he spoke.“I don't have any IDs on me” he said, displaying his empty pockets. My mouth stayed slightly opened, and my brows raised as I gave him a dismayed look. He doesn't even have an ID on him – Oh no, this is bad. “You don't know your name, so, definitely, you don't also know where you used to live. And now you don't have an ID, then how do we contact your family?” He remained

Chapter: The Unnaturally Beautiful Man. Ashley's point of view.>Ashley Relaxation Center“Jeez, business is too slow today” I grumbled mentally as my eyes glanced at the wall clock right above the entrance door. My café was eerily quiet this morning, with only the soft hum of the air conditioning breaking the silence. The clicking of the clock seemed to echo in the space, annoyingly reminding me of the passing time. My eyes narrowed as some wicked thoughts crossed my mind – could it be the man I saved last night brought bad luck to me? Is he the reason people aren't trooping in like every other day?But I quickly shook those thoughts off and scolded myself for being paranoid. Tiredness from last night kicked in, and I released a yawn, not getting a good sleep last night is telling on me because I'm feeling quite sleepy right now.As I leaned against the counter, my mind wandered back to the injured man and I gasped in worry. I had completely forgotten to check up on him, what if he's up and thinks he's gotten kidnapped?

I'm now officially a laughingstock, what perfect reason can he possibly have, Amelia?” Charlotte ret
