Sloppy noises and the moist feeling on her hand forced Vivian to open her eyes. She found Olcan, towering over her. It took a few moments to figure out that he was licking her hand. He was fully focused on the task as if that was the most important work in the world.
Surprisingly, she didn’t feel scared anymore. A strong scent of petrichor and pine made her feel heady. It was just like being with Sandilo.
Proximity to Olcan calmed down her frayed nerves. She felt an intense urge to run her hand through the wolf’s shiny, black fur. She raised her free hand and placed it lightly on the wolf’s mane.
Olcan raised its head and looked up at her with a sad expression, its ears drooping down.
Her heart broke and she Couldn’t resist throwing her arms around Olcan. It was like placing her hands on a wall of fur. Her hands were too small to hug properly.
Vivian’s heart fluttered at the purring sound he made. While she was r
Sandilo had Vivian trapped between his arms. She tried to back off but the cold wall behind her made any kind of movement impossible.Her heart pounded against her ribs and her breath hitched. She felt like her mind was incapable of forming any coherent thoughts.Sandilo lowered his face till his lips were almost touching hers. Vivian’s heart throbbed erratically and she gulped. Sandilo looked beyond mad. Fear course through her veins.Without warning, Sandilo bit her lower lips and crushed her lips as if he was punishing her. His hands wrapped around her waist and pulled her closer.Vivian’s head started spinning and she couldn’t remember how to breathe. She could see the stars and the darkness threatened to engulf her but Sandilo stopped at the right moment.“What is with this ‘Allowed’ thing?” He said in a low but dangerous tone.Tears trickled down her cheeks when she finally remembered what this
Vivian, Aphrodite, Sandilo, and Veron were seated at the table in the courtyard. They preferred to have their breakfast in the open, where it was cool and breezy.The bamboo gate swung open drawing Vivian’s attention to the gate. Her face lit up in a smile when she saw that it was Sandilo’s father.“Father…” She stood up and hugged him as he joined the table. Sandilo greeted him to but they didn’t hug.“What is for the breakfast?” He asked, pulling the empty chair and sitting.“Just some pasta…” Vivian said with a faint smile.“Now, what is that? Damn! The people on your planet are definitely, huge foodies… I mean I always feel like you will repeat the dishes but Puff!!! You come up with something new.” Father said shaking his head.“This looks funny though… I mean it looks like swirling food…” He said fighting the urge to laugh.
When they reached the entrance of the ground, Vivian found Sandilo’s father with a grotesque expression; his eyes were livid with anger and his face was scrunched up in disgust.Vivian's heart pounded as she edged closer to the entrance to see what had caused such a strong reaction in father.A shudder coursed through Vivian as she took in the scene.Roxan was sitting on a stone seat with a young woman on his lap. His one hand gripped her hair while he was holding a dagger in the other. Two other girls were kneeling before him with his head lowered.In the light of the bonfire, he looked no less than the devil himself.Without warning, he struck at the Omega and her dress was ripped apart.A bone-chilling scream escaped the girl’s mouth but it got muffled when he stuffed her mouth with the cloth he had torn off.“Father, that day when Sandilo broke his jaw, it was because of something similar,” Vivian whispered i
Vivian was looking outside the window when she was grabbed from behind. She squealed as she tried to turn around. But a strong pair of arms held her in place.“It is just me, love.” Sandilo’s rich husky but slightly hoarse voice sounded in her ears sending a pleasurable shudder through her.“Gosh! You scared me…” She exclaimed, once she was able to gather her bearings.She closed her eyes reflexively as she felt something move towards her eyes. It took a few moments for her to realize that she was blindfolded.“What are you doing, Sandy?” She asked in a shaking voice. Her heart accelerating in anticipation.“I am taking you to my favorite place.” He whispered in her ears and then nibbled it softly making Vivian giggle.“How will I walk if I can’t see?” Vivian asked, trying to take off her blindfold but he grasped her hand and said, “Be good, Vivi. I promise
“Brother, I brought this for you,” Roxan said, handing Sandilo a piece of stone.Sandilo’s eyes gleamed with joy as he turned the stone over in his hands.“Rix, you remembered…”“Of course! How can I forget your obsession with these stones?” He said with a smile, hugging him.Vivian’s eyes gleamed with unshed tears as she saw this heart-warming scene unfold before her eyes. She was so glad that she had convinced everyone to forgive Roxan.“Can I see it?” Vivian asked once Roxan had left.“Of course!”“This is pretty. It looks like the stars are encrusted in the blue sky.”“You like it?”“Love it… Ummm… if you don’t mind can I keep it? Please…” Vivian said holding the stone close to her.Sandilo chuckled and said, “Of course! It was just an obsession I had as a ch
“This is absolutely stunning,” Vivian exclaimed as she spread out her arms and turned round and round. The cold breeze bit her skin but it was such a refreshing change from the hot temperature that she welcomed it.The landscape was bathed in a scarlet glow, making it look like a painting, an alluring painting.“Brrr…. Aren’t you feeling cold, Vivi?” Apra said grasping her hand.“No, these clothes are made in such a way that it keeps temperature fluctuations from affecting me much.”Vivian hugged Apra and called out, “Sandy, can you please light a fire. Apra is feeling cold.”Veron and Sandilo had gathered firewood and lit up a bonfire in no time flat. Apra and Vivian sat on a log beside the bonfire and watched the sun go down while the others were busy in a meeting.La…la…la….hmmm…Ummm…la…la…la… Vivian hummed as she wra
Vivian stretched her arms and groaned. She didn’t feel like waking up at all. She moved her hand across the bed looking for Sandilo. All, she wanted to do was snuggle up to him and sleep.“F***!” She exclaimed as she sat up with a start.She looked around and called out, “Olcan! Olcan!” But there was no wolf. She rubbed her eyes to clear the sleepy haze that filled her eyes. She blinked her eyes and tried to focus on her surroundings.Why did this look like Sandilo’s bedroom in Bloodmoon cottage?“Because it is, silly girl.” She muttered as she got to her feet.“I will never believe this, Roxan! Never. He is trying to play games, Alpha!”Vivian’s heart skipped a beat when she heard Sandilo’s furious voice. She walked in the direction of sound calling out to Sandilo but she got no reply. She searched through all the rooms but they were nowhere to be seen.“Go
Sandilo’s eyes blazed as he sauntered towards Vivian. His jaws were clenched and his eyes burning with hatred, fury, and desperation, underlying the anger was an intense pain that was caused by Vivian’s betrayal.Vivian shuddered as she took a few steps backward. She licked her dry lips in an attempt to form words but her mouth felt dry and it was as if she had lost her voice.She was scared of the man that stood in front of her. He wasn’t her Sandilo, he seemed to be drunk on anger and hatred, so much so she could feel the waves of anger hit her. She cowered and took a few more steps but then the wall obstructed any further movement.Sandilo placed his hands on the wall, one on each side of her.“Why? Vivian! Why?” His voice boomed in her ears. She flinched and shut her ears.“Ahhhh!!!!” A scream escaped her throat as Sandilo’s fist came in contact with the wall making a dent. Sand and a few broken b
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
