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

Chapter 50Jacob’s POV“I shouldn’t be surprised seeing you here too soon, right?” I sighed while my eyes are on my Beta. Brent came back with papers on his hands as he stands in front of my house.“Well, I was surprised you sensed my presence.” Brent answered. “And I hope you’ll let me in like how Cidrey managed to.”I shook my head. There is nothing to hide with Brent anyways, maybe Harley has been tailing me from afar.In defeat, I opened my door wide for him. Brent walked closer and I turned my back to head on my office first. He followed and closed the door after entering inside the room.I sat on my chair before grabbing a glass of liquor, this had been my snack these days.“You’re growing a forest in that face, Jake.” Brent noticed.My head is too occupied to shave my beard and also I just don’t care about it.“Does that files needed my signature?” I diverted the topic and pointing on what he have in hand.“Oh. Yeah.” he placed it on my table and I started to scan through it th

Chapter 51Lucianna’s POV“You’re in a daze again, Luce.”I tilted my head and saw Mual standing at my side with a huge grin on his face.I smiled wryly and sighed as Mual walked closer to where I stood. Currently, this fence beside the lake became my comfort zone. I kill my time in front of this serene scenery, thinking… just thinking.Two days ago, I managed to leave Jacob, one of the things I am not proud of being successful to do. I must’ve hurt him, I know, because I felt the pain, too. I am hurt, I am shattered by my own decision.But I have to.“I can’t help it. I have a lot in my mind, Mual.” I answered and looked at the lake in front of me once more.Mual chuckled and tapped my back twice. “You just have to trust the process, time will fly fast.”I nodded slowly.I was patiently waiting, and though I’m dying inside, I know I can proceed more. I had to wait more.“The messenger has yet to visit for so long… maybe one of these days she’ll show up.”I smiled in the air. “Don’t w

Chapter 52Lucianna’s POVI jumped back in a breath and Fhoxia turned around, slowly walking back beside Roscoe.Did she say that I will be my mate’s death?“What the fuck, Roscoe?!” I exclaimed in a controlled scream. Are they trying to fuck up my head? Manipulate me? What?! “If you are trying to use me to have your revenge, try using a different way than this obvious stage play!”Fhoxia turned to face me this time that made my eyes divert to her for a second. When she seems to be still, I looked at Roscoe again and raised a brow to his ‘tired’ look.What? Is pretending to be a victim from the same kind of judgment a part of his game?“Lucianna, look at Fhoxia.” he started. I didn’t listen to him and my focus remained at him which made him sigh. “Fhoxia is not a living thing. The reason that she looks like this and speak like that is because she is but a soul sent from the Moon.”“Stop making stories, you fucker!”How can that be true?! I can see Fhoxia, she is real, she might not ha

Chapter 73Lucianna’s POVI heard Jacob’s voice while Harley was talking. The Gamma reported that Roscoe came to visit and that we talked in private but he didn’t add things that will complicate a mind. Though I doubt Jacob will think odd of his brother’s visit, given the situation we are in.My breathing got heavy when the two nodded their goodbyes and Jacob looked my way. Exactly at me, in my eyes, as if he knew I’m standing there and watching them.My reflexes say I should hide, away from his soulless eyes but I can’t. I didn’t. Instead, I walked towards the front door where Jacob were also headed. Jacob stopped just outside the door, right in front of me and I stopped inside, a step away from him.We stood there, eyes locked with each other and I have no idea what’s working on his head. Jacob shows no expression, same thing he has been doing since what had happened. And I can’t read his thoughts, nor his feelings.Is he waiting? I think he’s waiting for me to speak, to tell him so

Chapter 72 Lucianna’s POV “I mean abortion, Lucianna. We have to kill the pup inside your womb in exchange of enough time.” I swear, all the blood running through my veins left. I froze, and I stopped breathing. Killing the pup… God, that sounds so wrong because it fucking is! “You’re proposing to kill my child, Roscoe.” I stated because he seems to forgot that fact. “Yes--” “My own child. Its your family, too!” “I know that, Lucianna! But do we have a choice? We’re already in this problem, and we got no other options to choose from.” he bowed his head and sighed before looking back at me. “Its either let Jacob die or kill the pup before it consume your mate.” I put my hands up to stop him, unable to can’t hear any more of this. Roscoe has a point and it is clear but I am not thinking of killing my own child. I’m hopeful,I’m still hoping for a miracle to save us all from the fate’s curse. But Roscoe is also right that we have no time. And I have no time to continue hoping. Bu

Chapter 71Jacob’s POV“And I think you’ve brought us trouble.” says the visitor.Even though I can’t see her face, I know she’s looking right at me. The emotion of fear comes to me very seldom and that’s when I have no knowledge of something. When there’s something I have no answer about, or I’m left with no resolve.But this woman, well I can’t say she’s human exactly. And I think I’m having that particular emotion right now.Fhoxia is her name, right? And this Fhoxia is not from the living, its dead. She got no presence, no scent, no shadow, nothing.All the inhibitions I had, all the doubts and mistrust was left with certainty. Lucianna and Roscoe are telling the truth and even if I believe them, this woman’s presence alone makes me believe.“He didn’t mean to.” Roscoe spoke, trying to cover up for me. Its not only I who recognize who Fhoxia was talking to.Fhoxia turned her head to Roscoe, ever slowly, the slowest motion I have ever see.“Doesn’t mean he was not to blame.” the fe

Chapter 70Ashira’s POV“Come again?” Roscoe tilted his head and his brow furrowed. “What did you say?” he asked Jacob again.I was fidgeting on my seat while watching the brothers fought glances with each other. Jacob bit his lip and looked away first. I can tell how guilty he is, Jacob never looked away first when it comes to Roscoe.“You-” Roscoe can’t finish his sentence. He backed away and sat on the chair with a thud.“I didn’t--”“She will get pregnant!” Roscoe cut Jacob’s words and he stood up as hastily as how he sat. Jacob let out a sigh and closed his eyes shut, his jaws clenching hard.I’m still in a daze here.After the ‘accident’ as we start to call it, Jacob kept on apologizing over and over again. He claim he didn’t mean it, he claimed that he has no intention to finish inside. It was not his plan, and I know he’s telling the truth.Roscoe arrived after midnight while the pack was still enjoying their booze and dancing their life. He caught us in the moment of despair

Chapter 69Brent was making his speech in the middle of the Hall where a stage was placed. The crowd was in a circle, the music had died down, and people of Shadow pack listened as the pack’s beta talked.“Let’s stay here while Brent do his thing.” Jacob whispered on my ears. We’re at the stairs, halfway down the crowd when he stopped me by clinging on my waist. His pack was oblivious of our presence, they are focused at Brent.“Do you remember your first night here?” he asked after a while, his fingers are drawing circles on my stomach.I rolled my eyes from his question. “How could I forget? That night is the first of my worst.”He grunted. “Yeah, I was a jerk. I’m sorry.”“You were forgiven. Why’d you asked?”“Well, the moment you stepped out of the vehicle that night, I already caught your scent.” then he sniffed on my hair. “…the scent haven’t changed at all.”I froze when I felt something poking behind me. Jacob is aroused!Clearing my throat, I moved, trying to inch away from h

Chapter 68LuciannaI woke up the next day with morning kisses. Jacob’s face is buried on my neck, showering my skin with wet kisses, his hand on my stomach hugged tighter when he noticed I’m finally awake.“Good morning?” he asked, chuckling a bit, his head lifted and he smirked at me. I had to roll my eyes from how confident he sounded. Well, he could act that way because clearly, he earned the confidence last night.I groaned when my body shivered when I shifted. “I can’t believe its morning already. I feel sore all over, and I wonder who’s to blame for this.” I narrowed my eyes at Jacob’s grinning face. “What did you do to me? I think I’m suffering an amnesia or something.”Jacob let out a throaty laugh. “Come on now, baby, don’t feed my ego too much.” he bent down and planted a quick kiss on my lips.“Or maybe… I was trying to have some more.” I grinned. “If I’m calculating, you still owe me fifty-nine more.”He squinted his eyes. “Because. If I may remind, you fainted.” I laughe

Chapter 67Lucianna’s POVI was watching Ashira by the garden with folded arms on my chest and a swelling feeling on my heart. My friend would rather be with the birds and listen to them sing than have Aiden by his side. Its sad, really.There is no way I could relate with how this all works. Ashira forgetting her own mate, Aiden’s pain, the unborn child that has no clue with what is happening in the world. If I’m in their shoes… nah, I can’t relate. I sighed.Footsteps coming from behind straighten my back. It’s Aiden, and I felt him stopped behind me. He’s probably looking at Ashira now, too. Gawking at his mate like how he’s doing for the past days.“She’s going to be gone for a while, is she?” I said in a whisper.The silence is deafening and Aiden’s aura has been so sad that my eyes started to form tears. I sniffed.“She won’t.” Aiden answered gruffly. “Not to me.” then he walked forward and stopped beside me. The rays of the sun glowed his golden-brown eyes and those eyes didn’t

Chapter 66Jacob’s POV“We all know that Roscoe lost his mate before they could even meet. The occurrence made the shadow eye transferred to you, the second born.”Lucianna goes on and explained further but my focus was divided as I questioned what just happened.I never lose my cool, I never lost to my wolf. The argument we had are not that intense for my alpha power to take over. Heck, I will never use it to Lucianna!Despite the confusion, I made sure to keep it to myself and mask the knocking feeling. My brother is here, and I hate showing any weakness or flaw when he’s around.Though god knows how much I wanted to kneel and hug Lucianna for using the alpha on her-- even unintentionally.“Hundred years ago, the same incident happened in Shadow pack. The second born got the shadow eye, the same reason you got yours. The first born is mate-less and he took revenge just how Roscoe did, and the second born died. Everyone thought the first born killed the second.” Lucianna inhaled deep

Chapter 65Jacob’s POVI escorted Roscoe down the mountain and mind-linked Lucianna that we will meet her at the Prime’s guesthouse. At first, I entertained the thought that our conversation could take place at the mountain, wait for Lucianna and have the decent privacy. Not when Aiden’s guards noticed Roscoe’s presence in the pack lands. I earned a bit scolding from Aiden for trespassing his territory but he has a lot in his hands right now to come down and personally meet with us. Thankfully, he let this one go.Soft knocks from the door ended the silent eye-contact Roscoe and I have been doing. I stood up lazily and gave him one last warning look which earned a sigh from him then I headed to the door.Despite the guesthouse rooms being wolf-proof, I could feel that Lucianna was the one behind the door.‘Please tell me you are decently clothed.’ I teased our portal.A loud bang came from the door when Lucianna responded with a loud knock. I’m not even sure if it was a knock.Chuckli
