Sandilo was stunned by Vivian’s outburst. He sat there brooding and reflecting. It was quite some time before he went to seek out Vivian. He was shocked to see her lying peacefully on the stone seat…
He tiptoed to the seat and kneeled in front of her. He caressed her cheeks with the back of his hand. She looked as if she was an incarnation of the Moon Goddess.
He wanted to wipe out the lines of worry that were distorting her face. He lowered his lips and kissed her gently on the forehead. His heart almost stopped beating when Vivian smile involuntarily. He wished to see her smiling like this. He resolved not to fight with her ever again.
When Vivian woke up, he took out the bottle of energy pills from her bag handed it to her. Thankfully, she didn’t refuse though her eyes were laced with worry.
He took out the wand from the bag and said, “This wand heals injuries, right?”
“Hmmm…” She replied absentm
“Where are you taking me, Vivian?” Sandilo asked as Vivian dragged him to the bedroom. Sandilo’s heart thudded against his ribs as she pushed him onto the bed. His eyes widened and he shook his head. Was she doing what he thought she was doing?Vivian giggled and took out a piece of cloth and folded it a few times. Then, she crawled behind him and tied it around his eyes.“Hey! I can’t see..” Sandilo protested as he tried pulling at the blindfold.“Be a good boy and sit right here. I will be back in a while.” Vivian whispered right into his ears.His heart almost stopped beating when he heard her seductive voice. He felt like claiming her mouth right then and there but he also wanted to find out what his mate was going to do.He gulped and nodded his head. He knew that Vivian was a lively girl but he hadn't expected this. Maybe, this was how it was done on earth...“Don’t remove the
Vivian woke up and stretched her arms. Her eyebrows knit together as her hand came in contact with something warm. Hadn’t she slept off near the window?Her eyes snapped open and landed on Sandilo who was curled around her. He looked so adorable sleeping that Vivian couldn’t resist the urge to kiss his forehead.Then, she slid out of the bed stealthily; careful not to wake him up. Her eyes widened as she reached the courtyard. There was a huge pile of firewood in a corner. A huge stone was kept near the firewood and Veron was walking in with another huge one. His muscles bulged as he held the boulder over his shoulder.Apra was standing there, staring at him incredulously.“What are you doing Veron?” Vivian asked as she watched in wonder.Vivian’s hand flew to her mouth as the boulder dropped to the ground missing Veron’s foot by inches. She ran towards him and asked anxiously, “Are you alright? I am sorry,
Vivian looked around with a satisfied smile. One thing was for sure, these werewolves were quite efficient. They had transformed the village within two days.“Vivi, Rats are doing what did you say that day… yeah… rats are doing hip hop in my stomach,” Apra said, tugging at her arm.“At your service Luna. I promise you, it is going to be worth the wait. I will prepare the meat differently today.” Vivian said walking towards the makeshift barbecue they had created.“Everyone come closer. I will teach you how to cook.” Vivian announced.Apra scooted even closer and Veron and Sandilo stood just a few inches behind her.Vivian shook her head and said, “Not so close, guys. Leave room for me to move about…”Vivian took a long metal rod and pierced it through a piece of meat. She was really glad that Apra had cleaned up the pieces thoroughly. Vivian was okay with cooking meat. It w
Two sets of growls resonated in the forest making the hair on Vivian’s back stand. Her heart accelerated and her hands became clammy as she met Sandilo’s eyes. They were burning fierce with anger. Violence seemed to be coming off him in waves.“You are mine, Vivian. If he as much as thinks about you I will rip him piece by piece; keeping him alive so that he can count his sins.”“AndI will help Sandilo tear him to even finer bits. No one dares to touch someone in Veron’s protection.” Veron’s high pitched voice pierced Vivian’s ears.Vivian was lifted off the ground by Sandilo as he carried her away hastily. She should have felt protected by his proclamation but all she felt was was terror.She was finding it difficult to understand their bigotry nature. They had one rule for the members of the pack and another for Omegas. No matter how hard she tried to ignore, she couldn’t get Resee&
Vivian’s words kept replaying in Veron’s mind as he sat on the stone seat in the courtyard. He felt humiliated and ashamed. He had never thought about it this way.Weren’t those women someone's mate, someone’s daughter? Wouldn’t their hearts cry out at such defiling behavior?He knew that Omegas were always treated as such but Vivian’s words made him ponder over the appropriateness of such acts.Veron jumped to his feet and muttered, “Sandilo…Apra… I have some urgent work… I will meet you in a while…”Then, he broke into a run without waiting for their reply. His heart skipped a beat when his extra sensitive ears picked Vivian’s voice near the entrance of the village. He shook his head thinking that it was an illusion but when he heard the voice again he decided to investigate.His blood boiled when he saw Roxan cornering Vivian. She had a metal rod in her hand and wa
Roxan looked relaxed and let Veron take the first plunge. He avoided him by stepping aside and brought his elbow down his back.A scream escaped Veron’s throat but soon Veron had pinned Roxan on the ground. A fierce fight ensued… Sometimes Roxan seemed to be winning while sometimes Veron seemed to have the upper hand.Vivian felt an intense fear grip her heart. What if something happened to Veron? What would she say to Apra?Her heart drummed against her ribs as she watched them wrestling; matted in dirt and blood. It was difficult to say whose blood it was.She couldn’t muffle the gasp that escaped her mouth when Roxan pinned Veron to the ground. Veron got distracted and Roxan entangled him in a chokehold.“Do you accept defeat?” He asked with a victorious smile.Veron looked guiltily at Vivian. He had let her down. It would be right to fight till death but he had to think about his mate; his pack and his&hell
“If it was some other day, I would have considered your request, Roxan. Today, I am just a man whose mate was assaulted; a friend who sacrificed everything so that I could duel with you. We fight.” Sandilo said with a tone of finality.Roxan started shaking at this. He was a coward who knew only to overpower the weak. Deceit and plotting were his expertise. He couldn’t see any opening to showcase his expertise.Sandilo dragged him to the center of the crowd and pushed him to the ground. Then he roared, “Don’t behave like a ninny, Roxan.”Roxan remained on the ground, refusing to get up. Sandilo couldn’t hit him when he was cowering. So he continued to taunt him.“Roxan! Don’t ruin our family name. Prove that you deserve to be an Alpha. Prove that you are not the second Alpha…”Roxan hissed and jumped to his feet at this address. He abhorred being called ‘Second Alpha.&rs
Veron sat on one knee and looked at Vivian with admiration in his eyes. Stunned, Vivian took a step back and just gawked at him.Veron placed his hand on his heart and said, “Today, I have seen what true courage is. It is not about being powerful, it is about standing up for the right thing.”Tears sparkled at the corner of his eyes as he said in a voice thick with emotion, “When I saw you pointing that rod at yourself to stop him, I felt so helpless, so worthless.You were ready to give your life so that the women would be protected…. I mean… I haven’t seen anyone do that…that is not the way of our life, Vivian… but I admire your grit your courage. What you did today was incredible.I hereby accept you as the Luna of our pack and promise to ponder about the things you say seriously in the future.”Then he took her hand and placed a light kiss on her hand before standing up.
Vivian woke up with a start the next morning; completely drenched in sweat. She gripped the edge of the bed as she tried to catch her breath.“Vivi, what happened, love?” Sandilo asked groggily as he sat up rubbing his eyes.“I… saw that a fleet of spaceships had attacked the Lycan World and we both were running about, trying to save our daughter,” Vivian muttered with a horrified look.“Love, look at me…” Sandilo said drawing closer and lifting her chin.Looking into her eyes, he said, “It was just a dream. We are safe at the AV cottage. There is no attack.”Vivian’s eyes swept around the room and she relaxed considerably. Sandilo was right. It was only a dream. Still, she couldn’t help but wonder why she had seen the nightmare.Suddenly, she jumped to her feet and ran out. Sandilo shook his head at her weird behavior before following her out.It was a good thi
The unification ceremony was to be held by the lakeside. It was tradition to exchange vows under the moonlight.Sana checked the decorations one last time before the guests started to arrive. It was unlike anything the werewolves had ever seen. The whole stage was carved out of a single slab of pure white marble. It dazzled in the moonlight giving it a surreal look.Four pillars flanked the stage. Garlands of flowers entwined around the pillars like vines. Streamers and garlands ran between the pillars creating an enclosure of sorts. They had even managed to make four light bulbs glow in the corners.It was perfect just like Vivian had envisioned. Sana just wanted to add some additional effect. She took out a jar and opened it. The next moment, hundreds of fireflies flocked around the light bulbs, giving the setting a fairytale look.The area around the lake had been cleared to make room for the guests. In the extreme right corner, a huge stone oven had b
Sandilo’s eyes darted from Grandpops to the steep descent. He was torn between following his mate and leaving her Grandpa alone in this unknown place.“It is okay, Go and get her…” Grandpops said, taking off his glasses and cleaning them.“But… Grandpops… This place is not safe. What if the wolves attack while I am away… Vivian will never forgive me…”Grandpops cleared his throat and said, “What if something happens to her?”Sandilo wrung his hands. He was really in a great fix. Just when he thought that things couldn’t get any worse, he heard the cracking of the leaves followed by heavy footsteps. His ears perked and he positioned in front of Grandpops.Grandpa let out a snort and said, “I don’t think I need your protection, cub. Move aside."Sandilo’s heartbeat accelerated as Grandpops shoved him out of the way and walked towards the brink
The winds blew up the dust like a huge whirlwind but Sandilo and Vivian stood frozen, dazzled by the sight. The spaceship landed as softly as the flamingoes skimming over the water. A door slid open and a slide of sorts rolled down.An old man with grey hair, bespectacled eyes, and wrinkled face emerged out of the entrance and slid down as if he were riding a huge slide. His face was lit up with child-like curiosity.His eyes darted around, drinking in the beautiful landscape. He opened his arms and took in a deep breath. His face flushed with contentment.Vivian couldn’t believe what she was seeing. She felt like she will go crazy with the intensity of emotions that she felt at that time.Much to Sandilo’s surprise, she leaped into the air and launched herself at the old man. She started licking his face just like a dog licks her master if they see them after a very long time.The old man was dumbfounded when the huge white wolf pounce
“Sandy, Rewa is desperate for a run. Can we just trot up the mountain and come back?” Vivian asked batting her eyelashes.Sandilo groaned and said, shaking his head, “You know you can’t do that. Why do you keep pestering me with the same question, Vivi.”Vivian’s face flushed and she said glaring at him, “I am so done with this stupidity. It is a month since this craziness started. I don’t care if I die the next moment. I am going out.”Sandilo grabbed her arm and raised her face by her chin saying, “I don’t want to make you unhappy love. I am just worried about your safety.”“Just take your hands off me, Sandy. I have had enough of it. I am not some barbie doll whom you can keep trapped in a cage…. I am bloody suffocated trapped in this stupid cottage all this while.” She screamed, shoving him aside.She took her wolf form and was outside the door with a singl
Sandilo felt a tickling sensation in his nose, he turned in his sleep and sneezed. Vivian giggled as she watched him rub his nose and doze off again.She inserted the grass stalk in his nose again and twirled it gently. He grunted something and turned to the other side again.Sandilo woke up with a start when Vivian was about to twirl the stalk for the third time.“Who the F***! is that?” He roared, his face red with fury.The stalk from Vivian’s hand dropped and she crossed her arms puffing her cheeks.Realization dawned on Sandilo as he took in Vivian’s upset expression. He started apologizing instantly, “I am so sorry, love… I didn’t realize it was you…”Vivian just pursed her lips and looked away.Sandilo kicked himself inwardly.F***! Did he have to screw everything up so soon? Damn! His temper. His eyes darted around the room looking for inspiration to cheer Vivi
Vivian stopped pacing after a while. She stood right in front of him and said in a cold voice, “Your punishment is that you are never allowed to touch me…”Colour drained from Sandilo’s face. His heart stopped beating and he felt a ringing sensation in his ears. He could do anything for Vivian but this….Vivian bent over her knees laughing. When she looked up there were tears in her eyes. She said, “Look at your face. It looks pale as a ghost as if I have given you a death sentence…”Sandilo groaned and said, “You have no idea, Vivi… This is worse than a death sentence… You want me to…”His words were cut off as Vivian pressed her lips against him. Sandilo stood frozen for a moment before responding. He placed his right arm over her waist and drew her closer.With his other hand, he brushed away the locks of hair that were getting in the way. He lifted her chin to g
Vivian sniffled and continued her rant, “ Oh, Sandy… you have no idea how much my heart ached to hold you one last time before I died… I wanted to…”Vivian felt like her heart would burst at the intensity of the emotions she was feeling. She burst into loud sobs burying her head in Olcan’s fur.Olcan moved away causing her to stagger. She looked up at him with a hurt expression. The next moment, his claws started retracting and the fur vanished.She was too stunned to react. She watched him as he took his human form. Her face turned red and she closed her eyes, embarrassed to see him naked.The moment Vivian said that she wanted to hold him, Sandilo’s control snapped. He took over Olcan, not caring that he had no change of clothes.He pulled Vivian into a tight hug the moment the transformation was complete. The fire that had been burning him all this while was calmed by her touch. He moaned as he molded
The moment Vivian crashed the device against the wall, a strange feeling overcame her. Before she could realize what was happening, she found herself falling downward.“Ahhh!!!” A loud scream erupted in her mouth as her heart came to her mouth. The scream was lost somewhere in the air as she fell sharply towards the Lycan World.She covered her ears midair as the spaceship exploded. The waves of the sound hit her accelerating her fall. The temperature around her rose, scorching her skin. The flames lapped and almost touched her fur… fur… it was then Vivian realized that Rewa had taken over.She made the mistake of looking downward. She was at such a height that she could see the curve of the planet. The fall was very steep and there was no way she could survive it.*F*** Rewa! What the heck do you think you are doing?**I am trying to save our life… Unlike you I don’t wish to die so early!**Wow! I can
