Blade’s POVCamila was still asleep on her bed, clutching the pillow which I had tucked into her hands earlier. I was seated on a chair next to her bed and was watching her as she slept. Although my eyes were fixed on her, my mind was somewhere else. I had three women in my life and I really didn’t understand how to deal with them or how I had gotten to this point in life where I couldn’t even trust myself anymore. Thankfully, Dan, Lucia and Killian had left Haven and I made certain of that as I had followed them and watched them depart. But they had left my mind so troubled that I didn’t even know what to do next. Jordan was mad at me and wouldn’t even talk to me. He thought I was selfish and cruel and probably hated me for deserting Brianne. I also felt really bad for myself and Brianne. We had been so in love and I was sure that my disappearance must have really hurt her. As for Emily, I didn’t know what to do. It felt like the more we met
Emily’s POV“There’s something about the Ripper that doesn’t seem right,” Sandra looked at me. “And what is that?” “I don’t know… but…” “But you have to be extremely careful,” She advised. “You already have too many men in your life, believe me you don’t want to add the Ripper to the list.” I chuckled. “How possible is that? The Ripper would never go for a wolf like me,” She smiled. “Exactly, I researched about his Luna and I was stunned.” “Yeah, I’ve also seen her and to be honest, she’s way out of my league. She’s super gorgeous and hot with so much skills and strength.” Sandra sighed as she dropped her cellphone on her lap. “In other words, the Ripper’s pack defeats us in everything.”“How so?” She rolled her eyes. “Isn’t it quite obvious. The Ripper is way hotter and stronger than our Alpha and his Luna is more…everything than you.” “I know about the latter one being true but I doubt that the Ripper is way hotter than Dexter.” Sandra s
Mathilda’s POV The last customer just left and I slumped on one of the chairs in exhaustion. The past three months had been the most stressful months in my life. One would think that owning a diner in the heart of the town would be amazing but it wasn’t. Not at all. Of course we earned a good amount of money everyday but the negative effect it had on us was overwhelming. Mum had fallen really sick and had been hospitalized for about two months. Dad followed suit leaving only me and my younger brother, Jason to manage the diner. As for me, I hated the diner. Although it was a way for me to gain money for college, I still despised it mainly because of who we had gotten it from. In order for me to stay away from her daughter, Mrs. Austin had gifted me and my parents with a diner and my father had promised her that he’d never let me see Emily again. In other words, my friendship had been traded with an old little diner. I looked at
Emily’s POV Sneaking out of the house had been quite easy as it wasn’t Mrs. Fabian at the gate but the old Mr. Jones who was fast asleep and didn’t even notice when I snuck out. The only part that was quite difficult was running past the guards lodge, knowing fully well that about ten security officials were there. But I managed to do that successfully without anyone of them noticing my presence. When I was much younger, my siblings called me ‘the fox’ due to my ability to run silently. By 11:00pm I was out of the wealthy residential area and was walking as fast as I could on the bad roads of downtown Haven. Unlike my side of town which was quiet and lonely at night, downtown Haven was still buzzing. Although I knew that everyone on the road and streets were either gangsters, ruffians, prostitutes or drug-pushers. I wasn’t scared at all because I knew that I couldn’t be hurt by anyone of them. Even when a couple of them approached me, all I had to do was
Blade’s POVI spent the next ten minutes sitting on my couch, wondering why Emily had been with Dexter at the horsemen fountain, and although I knew there were about a hundred innocent reasons why, I still bothered myself until I decided to quit being jealous and overprotective and push it out of my mind. To my utmost shock, when I checked the hidden chamber in my pendulum clock, the necklace was missing and I was a hundred percent sure that it had been there. Could Susan had taken it? But why? Speaking of Susan, it was about three weeks since she left and I had offered her just a two-week leave. Susan wasn’t the type to disobey and even if she wanted to extend her leave i knew she would have called to inform either me or Dexter. Susan would have been a great help in finding my necklace, but since she wasn’t around, I had to find it myself. I checked my room again and after I had turned everywhere upside down, I stormed outside in annoyance and frustration.
Blade’s POV It was getting dark now and I could see the early stars peeping out of the sky and I still wasn’t sure of my destination. I knew Susan lived at the other end of town after the green meadows. It was the only area which had not changed at all. There were still farm animals dung littered all over the ground and most of the houses were small bungalows with henhouses beside them. Susan had told me that their house was the biggest around here as it was the only storey building. Ten minutes later, the sputtering of my motorbike came to an end at the front of a brick building which had an upper floor. Beside the house was a ranch and at the other end of the yard was a little greenhouse. Behind the house was a black lake which had been barricaded with a short wooden fence. It was late now and most of the lights in the brick house were turned on which meant that someone was around. I didn’t know why but I felt hesitant to knock and request fo
BLADE FERGUSON I waited a while in the diner in order to calm my rising temper. It was still shocking to believe that Dexter was behind everything. Although I had always known that Dexter despised me more than anything in the world yet I never knew he was capable of such wickedness. Over the past six years, I had beared the guilt of killing my father who had been the best person I had ever known. The guilt had been what had driven me to flee my pack and seek for a new life elsewhere. It was no surprise that fate brought me back to Haven to reveal the truth and expose that bastard, Dexter. My phone buzzed in my hand and I looked down at it to see a text message . It was from Dexter. “I have your moonlight elixir.” I scoffed. That Bastard. I knew he was only playing parlor tricks with me. He had always been so deceitful but the thought of him killing our father out of jealousy still bugged me. It was twenty five minutes past eleven and I just re
Emily’s POV“Are you okay?” I looked up and met the questioning eyes of both my parents. “Hmhm..” I replied with a slight nod and I resumed my thinking. Dad cleared his throat. “Emily, is anything the matter?” I shook my head. “Then why aren’t you eating?” Dad asked. “Since you woke up, you’ve been acting strange, are you sure you’re fine?” “Yes Dad.” I replied, slightly offended that they were interrupting my thoughts. I wiped my mouth and rose from the dining chair. “Thanks Mum… the brunch was amazing.” “How would you know that when you didn’t even taste it?” Mum was clearly annoyed. “I-I-I’m just uhm… I don’t have an appetite right now.” I turned around and headed upstairs. “And where are you going?” Mum inquired. “To my room,” I said as I marched up the staircases. “Hope you’re…” I didn’t bother to listen to the rest of what Mum had to say as I slammed my room door shut. Heaving a sigh of relief, I walked to my table and
