Chapter 41Lucianna’s POVJacob pulled me up, with his arms snaked on my waist to adjust me to a more comfortable position. He laid above my body, his huge body almost covered mine while his lips stayed kissing me, even better each passing second.“Jacob…” is all I can utter, my moans of pleasure from his drowning kisses. His hand found its way inside my clothes, fully cupping my breast and the brassiere felt like its not there. His warmth sipped in straight to my skin and my body become sensitive, longing and yearning for his touch.“Lucianna…” his whispers sounded like a perfect harmony best made only for me. He pulled away, not too much but enough distance to look at me.I opened my eyes when his kisses stopped, and I don’t know if I looked frustrated by it. I don’t really care.“Tell me to stop if you don’t want this. I… won’t be able to stop if this pushed farther--”“Shh.” I smiled, placing my finger on his lip. “You’ve given your warning, Jacob.” my thumb caress his bottom lip

Chapter 43Lucianna’s POV“I think this pots are fine, right, Lucianna?” Anabel asked with a smile after she checked all the pots we bought in a local store.I nodded with a smile. “We got everything on the list.”She teasingly poked my sided. “Ohh. Wanted to go home that fast, huh?”I flushed.Anabel become our alarm this morning, she woke Jacob and I while we cuddled sleeping. Having breakfast with her and went to shop for Jacob’s backyard that we will turn into a garden.“N-No, of course not.” I denied but yes, Jacob kept calling in my head saying he went home early. He is home too early, to be honest.Anabel laughed and snaked her arm over my shoulder as we walk.“You know, he will be like that, missing you too much. Every single day.”“H-How-”“Come on, it smells fresh that you two had just completed the process of mating. It’s fine, its totally normal.”“Until when… will he act like this?”Ana chuckled. “Oh, darling, until your last breath. Alejandro is still the same, more now

Chapter 44Lucianna’s POV“I’m ready.” Jacob announced as he came out of his room.I rolled my eyes at him while Harley chuckled beside me. “Jacob…” Oh my, I don’t want to start with this again but he’s too cute!His shoulder dropped as he sighed. “I am… ready to go to the hall and work.”Harley laughed loud and I think he wasn’t able to contain it anymore. Jacob grinned at him but only for a second because his expression turned serious as he watch his third in command. “Fun’s done, get out.” he snapped.I stick my tongue out to a smiling Harley and he just shrugged at me before walking out of the house.Jacob’s arms was quick to wrap on my waist. He groaned in my ears as his grip tightened. “I don’t want to let you go.” he murmured.“Nope. I’m gonna be late.” I tiptoed and planted a kiss on his cheeks, grinning after.Jacob frowned. “That is not how you should kiss your mate goodbye.”My lips parted from that. Ugh, he’s starting to emit his desires again, I can feel it!“Let me show

Chapter 45Harley’s POVLucianna entered the arena with an expression I have… never saw in that face before.I couldn’t stay at the ground where I think I can protect her more since I’ll be closer. The organizers urged me one floor up and I sat there with the audiences.My mind was wandering as my eyes went to look up to where Roscoe is. He’s still there where we left him, and his smile and eyes are screaming a victory.A victory I cannot understand.“The winner of this round will be the champion of the North nth Female Fighters Game!”Lucianna was standing straight, her eyes are blank and it seems to me that the presence of her opponent does not bother her at all.She’s wearing her usual denim pants and loose shirt while the other girl wears a traditional fighter’s suit. There’s a huge difference in their body features. The opponent has a bit of bulk and muscles while Lucianna looks slim though taller.The other girl lunges forward in her defensive stance, ready to take the first off

Chapter 46Jacob’s POV“W-What if sombody sees… ohh~”Lucianna’s hand grabbed on my hair as tight as she could while the other is on the tree trunk for support.She’s pinned between the tree and me, with her leg placed on my shoulder and I’m on my knees, licking and sucking her perfect slit.She’s so damn sweet.She must have finished her battle fast and well. I could tell she didn’t even sweat a bit from the match she fought because of the faint the smell of it.“You always taste so good, Lucianna…” I breathed in her wetness and flicked my tongue on her slit back and forth. That earned a sweet loud moan coming from her lips.“J-Jacob… what if someone--Ahh!”I sucked her bud hard, not letting her finish her sentence as I am drowned into the taste of her. Her taste is giving me an addiction and I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of this sweetness and her moans.“Nobody will dare to come here.”I will never let her be seen this way. This sight, this noises, this sweetness… it’s for no o

Chapter 47Jacob’s POVHow…Why…Is it really too late for us?My mind is in haywire. A lot of questions wanted to be answered but I have one respond to each of it.This is my fault, and I have no right to ask any question. It doesn’t matter if I’m confused, if I’m hurt. I am the one to blame for all the pain that kicked my chest right now.All images of Lucianna in my head are shattered into tiny pieces that I don’t know how to reassemble those again. Her smiles, her laughter, her eyes, the way she touches me…I lose her.I lost her?No.No!She can’t! She shouldn’t leave! I need her!‘Lucianna!’ I keep calling in her mind since I can feel her portal open. She hasn’t blocked me in.She hears me, she heard me! But why isn’t she responding? Is that how she hates me so much? To ignore me like this? Leaving without notice but a piece of paper?!I know I should set her free, we’ve talked about that but a part of me says she didn’t do her part. I told her, right? I said she has to say good

Chapter 48Brent’s POVI arrived at Jacob’s house and he was not alone.There he is. And her mother.Jacob was standing at the doorway with his arms on both side and he looked like a mother tiger forbidding anyone to come near its cubs.Anabel, his mother was trembling as she stood outside. I bet she heard about what happened to come here.“I said leave!” Jacob growled at his mother who jumped from his roaring voice.I hissed and went out of the car, walking towards Anabel.Jacob’s eyes are red, his alpha taking him over. His wolf in control and I am guessing that he barely got a hold of his humanity by now.The effects of being away from a mate. Damn, Lucianna… why did you have to leave him like this?Jacob looked at me in a snap. He only noticed my presence when I’m almost near his mother. Damn, even his senses is not as sharp as it should be.“Brent, oh my god, please talk to him…” Anabel cried.“I don’t want anyone near my house! Leave!” he spat at me, slamming the door close.I

Chapter 49Jacob’s POV“How is she?”I asked Cidrey to come in my house and report to me directly from here. There is no way I’d want to leave this place. Going out and losing Lucianna’s scent, terrifies me.So now, we are here at my home office to discuss how his tracking task of Lucianna came about.“She is well, Alpha Jacob. Currently, she’s staying at--”“Stop.” I held my hand up and sigh. “Remember to never mention the place she resides during this discussion.”Because I might break my promise and follow her. Lucianna won’t like that, I know.Cidrey, the Head of Trackers, looked confused.“Just for this discussion, Alpha Jacob?”“No. Not until I asked.” I said with a hiss.Somehow, talking with someone who know my mate’s whereabouts makes me itch and uneasy but I tried my best not to ask.Cidrey nodded slowly.“Okay. Uh, L-Luna Lucianna has settled at--I mean--she settled well. And f-for the bed, I think… the size is enough for her.”“How enough is it? How many people may lay on

Lucianna's POV“Fhoxia,” I called when we are all gathered in front of the messenger. “This is Quillon, you understand each other, right?”As if I understand that Fhoxia would not respond, I looked at Quillon and wait for what he has heard. Not just me, but everyone of us.“She says ‘the time is near’,” Quillon said, looking straight at Fhoxia. “Her task in this realm has ended but she couldn’t leave until she got to help. That is why she can no longer speak and why she was starting to join the wind.”The tears couldn’t stop itself from forming into my eyes. So that is why Fhoxia hasn’t responded to any of us. This is the reason and she stays just to help us.“Did she find out anything to help?” Jacob asked. All of us are stunned with what Quillon said but Jacob recovered first. “Any cure?”Quillon was patiently waiting for what Fhoxia has answered. The silence made my head swirl in thoughts, mixed emotions and ideas. But from it all, the silent prayer I did in the back of my head sho

Lucianna’s POV“Why proceed with it, then?” Aiden asked, wincing a bit from the heaviness of his words. I just told them about the Shadow eye and the curse of it because of a mishap that the first born didn’t inherit the gift.“Aiden! You can't tell a mother to get rid of her pup.” Ashira answered, agitated on my behalf. Aiden looked at me with apologizing gaze but the way his jaw clenched tells me his vote is just the same as Roscoe’s.“I actually tried to.” the sigh that came out of my lips was cold as memories came rushing.“Ohmy! Luce!” my friend's eyes were wide from shock, covering her mouth and tears forming on her eyes.My smile has shame lingering on it. This is a new emotion on my part. I always thought that I haven't done anything wrong when I decided to went with Roscoe on that cave. Maybe its because this is the first time I talked about it with a person of a same gender. Plus, Ash is a mother now so she can relate more than I could imagine how horrible what I did. I su

Lucianna’s POVRoscoe came and as soon as he get off his car, we exchanged a look that lasts for almost a minute. There was a lot in our eye language and it’s more like him saying ‘I told you so,’ and mine were ‘We’re in this situation so fucking try and talk with your mate’s body’. I saw his shoulder sagged as he sighed but headed to where Fhoxia was as if he read my mind.I really hope Roscoe can get something, anything, from Fhoxia. He does before, he still felt the bond between him and his mate’s body that the messenger borrowed. So I hoped, keep on hoping, there’s nothing I could do anyway.“He’s been there for how long?” Harley asked behind me.Time has reached a spot on top of my list that I prioritized to forget, so I just shrugged Harley’s question. Now watching Roscoe has made me feel dreaded in the guts so I decided to head inside and sit on the couch. Harley lingered longer by the porch, watching my brother-in-law like a hawk.I don’t know if I feel excited or anxious with

Lucianna’s POV“She’s creepy.” Harley commented as we drank coffee out at the porch. “How long has she been here?”“One week now.” I sighed. “I keep on asking her why she’s here but she won’t talk. Roscoe won’t be here until later this evening but he told me over the phone that Fhoxia didn’t reached out to him either.”“It means this messenger has no message to deliver? So, what, just being nosy?”I scoffed. “Bite me, I don’t know either.”“And Roscoe will be here? Jacob finally permitted his return?”Jacob gave a temporary ban for Roscoe after what happened in the cave. My mate hated the idea that his brother kept on deciding things for him.“Yeah, he only agreed this morning. He didn’t want to, I just convinced him since Roscoe might be the one Fhoxia could talk to or something.”“And that is why?”I sighed and nudged my mug at the messenger’s direction . “That body was borrowed from a dead woman. The dead woman was Roscoe’s mate.” Harley’s jaw dropped and before he could pry more,

A month has passed. A cough coming from our bedroom made me jumped from my deep thoughts. I was having my coffee in the kitchen and Jacob was at our bedroom. Laying down on our bed even when the sun has shone for an hour and a half.Not because he feel lazy to go to the Hall like he used to, but because he has become weak. His eyes had sunken with dark circles under it, there’s hollow in his cheeks, his skin has become dull and dry and no matter how much I put lipbalm in his lips, it keeps on cracking. His body was not as strong as he was. And everyday he get worse.I can barely look at him in this state but the only time I wasn’t by his side were morning like this. I drink my coffee alone then I’d cry my heart out without making a sound and spend the rest of my day beside him again. This is the time I used to outlet my sadness, fear and every other emotion I couldn’t show in front of him.There was still no news about another way. There’s still no another way and I lose the hope on

I was asked to lay down on a stone table. The coldness touched the bare skin of my back and arms, making my eyes shut hard.“No need to be scared,” the enchantress said, standing on my side while rummaging into a box of small bottles. A potion, maybe?Harley and Roscoe are on the other side of the cave, or the enchantress’s home, as she calls it. There’s no way they would hear our conversation.“Will it hurt?” I asked in a low, trembling voice.The enchantress looked straight into my eyes and there was something in the way she look at me. She was saying something, her eyes were saying something. She doubted my resolve in continuing with this procedure, I know that was what she think.“It will sting.” she smiles but arched a brow, as if testing if I will back down.But I closed my eyes and relaxed.“You’re not scared.” she stated, not asked. It was as if a question in her head was answered.I sighed, long and painful. “No.”“I want to know why,” she demanded with a tone that she wouldn

Lucianna’s POVI cut off the portal I shared with Jacob, feeling the severed connection like a heavy weight lifting from my chest—and yet, a gnawing pit settled in my stomach. It was better this way. He didn’t need to know where I was going, especially for what I was about to do. The decision had been far from easy, but once I made up my mind, there was no turning back. I wouldn’t allow myself to back down.“Calm down, gamma,” Roscoe’s chuckle was low, rough, and filled the silence like an unwanted echo. “You look so pale, I’d wonder if your blood left your veins.” His voice trailed off, almost as if he were talking to himself—though in a car full of werewolves, he knew better. I sighed, a breath that didn’t even begin to ease the tension coiled tightly within me.“Cut it out, Roscoe,” I muttered, my voice steady though my mind was racing. I could feel Harley next to me, practically vibrating with barely suppressed irritation. “Just drive.”The sleek growl of the engine hummed beneath

Jacob hadn’t returned home since last night and I haven’t slept a blink. Thinking over and over again about my decision, I cried all night and prayed, continuously apologizing to the unborn child in my womb.“You called for me?”It was Harley. Of course I called for him, I needed someone by my side right now and since Jacob was against this idea, I had to call for someone who wouldn’t turn down my heeding.“Yes.” I wiped my face and stood up. I probably looked like a mess right now but I couldn’t care anymore. “I also called for, uh, Roscoe. Expect his presence in a bit, I’ll just get something from my room.”Harley’s POVEverything was a mess around the pack. I heard Jacob was scolding his staff and throwing things everywhere. Brent told me, of course. He’d been snooping about what was happening with Jake and Luce that may had caused Jacob’s nonstop tantrums over the Hall.Of course I said nothing. I promised Lucianna I wouldn’t tell a soul about Jacob losing his control of his wolf

Jacob’s POVI once again looked at the corpse, it was shredded into pieces. It’s skull was crushed, bones torned apart and cracked. There was blood everywhere, from the ground up to the trees. The body was divided into four pieces and the head was retrieved up the branch of a tree.“Please forgive me, Alpha Jacob.” said Jordan. One of the council, head of trackers that also conduct the investigation. “I failed to distinguish the entity of the corpse, Alpha.” he bowed and the rest of his team bowed as well.There was no question to why they failed. The core of the corpse was gone, making it hard to distinguish it. Without the core--its heart-- a werewolf wouldn’t shift back to human. No one would know if it was a werewolf or a forest wolf.But I knew.The moment I arrived, the air whispered to my ears. The smell of death lingered in my nose. And the howl of a werewolf called my Alpha wolf.The corpse was a shape-shifter like us. Definitely a rogue because there was no distinguished pac
