ALEXANDER “Alex!” I hear Elijah’s voice resonating through the background. Nevertheless, I quicken my pace and hop into my car before he can say anything to stop me. Half an hour later, I arrived at Linda’s shop. I strode through the door and scanned the shop, vaguely aware of how my eyes glowed when I saw her standing near a rack. Taking hurried steps forward, I clenched my fists as my eyes fixed on her now-pale face. All her sales ladies staring at me gasped and clung to one another as I grabbed her neck, crashing her head hard against the brick wall. She gasped, instantly clutching on my arm as she desperately tried to loosen my firm grip. Her big, gray eyes that looked at me with utter fear widened, brimming with tears. “What did you say to her?” I growled while I squeezed her neck. She looked at me with furrowed brows, probably in a daze. “Al..pha” It took me a moment to realize I’m already strangling her out of rage. But more than that, I was afraid. Not wanting to be c
ALEXANDERI immediately let go of her shoulders. My brows still furrowed at her in confusion.I made a lazy step back whilst Linda stepped forward from her position on the wall. After inhaling a few deep breaths and smoothing down the wrinkles of her skirt, she spoke."I'm a doomsayer." People in the room gasped in open disbelief at her sudden confession.She lowers her head, refusing to meet my curious gaze pointed at the look of guilt evident in her face.I straightened my posture and squared my shoulders, trying to get my shit together if I wanted to find my mate fast. Blinking, I tried to erase that image of Eleanor pointing her fingers towards me as I collapsed on the floor. That image where we were surrounded with a large, heavy pool of blood that rippled with her own tears.I clenched my fists by my sides then drew in a deep breath in a bid to calm my ass down before my wolf takes over and g at her."Tell me all you know," I command, my voice sounding rough and husky, making
ELEANORCoby and Alpha Ezekiel didn't utter a word until we reached their pack house. Ezekiel insisted that he carry me on his back. He said his territory was a long way from here, so walking is really not an option. It would take me days before I even get there. I had considered shifting into my wolf, but that can't be an option either. At least, I need to find the right time to shift, but I felt guilty riding on his back knowing I had my own wolf.Nonetheless, I accepted his offer and hopped on his back. His wolf was really huge. I wonder what Alexander's wolf look like? The thought of Alexander changed my whole mood all of a sudden. I told myself I wouldn't think of him. I laughed when I find myself still thinking of him wherever I go. And now here I am. Before I let sadness consume me, I shook my head and tried to focus on clinging to Ezekiel's back.About two hours later, he stopped at a gate. Immediately, the guards opened it for us and they ushered us in.I gasped at the si
ELEANORIt was cold, I stared blankly at my reflection in the mirror while I rested my head against the stone wall. My hands clutched my knees firmly, chapped lips unable to move. In my reflection, I could see my skin glowing brightly. The absence of those gruesome scars I've grown so accustomed to had sent the fear of god right through me, and for some reason I couldn't accept it.I longed for them, longed to be a normal werewolf. Hell, I even dreamed I could be just a normal human being one day. Simply living my life in blissful ignorance of curses and wolves.But unfortunately, this is my reality. My world, a place I could never escape from. I focused only on things such as breathing and blinking, desperate for a distraction. Something...Anything that can temporarily remove me of this world I'm trapped in.I sat there for what felt like a whole eternity before I finally decided to gather my bearings. Realizing that no matter how long I dwell in my fucked-up life, it will remain f
67 ELEANOR “Z-ZEKE?!” My hand shot up to cover my mouth as I batted my eyelashes at him one more time. Utter shock and disbelief swept through me, making me lose balance and almost tripping to the floor. Had it not been for Zeke who dashed his arms out to catch me when I tripped, my head would have already hit the hard surface with a painful thud. “Woah, easy there.” He chuckled, helping me get back up on my feet. I didn’t take my eyes off him even as he took several steps back, creating a decent gap between us. “I…It’s been years..” I lowered my head, suddenly feeling embarrassed to not have been able to remember him at our first meeting in the Winder’s dinner. So Zeke is an alpha… When I first met him months after that night, I always thought he was a rogue. The fact that he is indeed an alpha explains why he has such a strong scent, much like Alexander’s. Since I never saw his human form, I was hardly able to recognize him as the same wolf who saved me from being raped year
EZEKIEL I had just finished making my last round when I finally decided to go to my room. As I made my way upstairs, I rushed to take off my robe. Tossing it carelessly to my king-sized bed before stripping off my boxers then kicking it to the floor. I found myself sniffing the air when a familiar scent had suddenly invaded my nose, touching all my senses and making my wolf purr in excitement. Ignoring the red sign upon seeing a woman's blurry figure pacing inside the shower room, I walked slowly towards the bathroom when I notice the figure disappear. The door bursted wide open, revealing a very naked Eleanor staring up wide-eyed at me. As expected, Coby had purposely brought her to my room. Because we've known each other for years, he must have noticed my fondness for her when we were in the forest. And, considering the fact that he's been practically begging me every single day to find a mate who could take her place as a Luna in our pack, I'm not surprised. He had done the sa
ALEXANDERLinda had kept her mouth shut throughout the entire ride. She had been looking out the window, as if she sees something out there. My brows furrowed, confused. Doomsayers are not even supposed to exist anymore. From what I've heard, wolves of her kind had been burned alive. They were perceived as nothing more than bad omen to the pack. My father told me this. I grunted, deciding not to dwell on the matter any more than I should.I need to focus. She needs me, at least that's what I've wanted to believe. I kept my gaze glued to the road in front of me. About an hour and a half later, I stepped on the brake. Linda gripped the door handle as the car came to an abrupt stop."Get out." I order her.She glanced at me nervously then quickly opened the door, hopping out of the car the same time I did. I sauntered around the front where Linda stood, her body shaking visibly all over. "Shift!" I mindlinked her. We need to get to the border as soon as we can.I watched as she hes
ELEANOR Fear immediately slithers across my skin as I watch Alex launch at Ezekiel who had just kicked himself out of the shower with rage burning in his shimmering golden eyes. He was not himself. His massive black and white wolf pounced on the ground before jumping straight towards Ezekiel who glanced up instinctively at Alex in mid-air. Seeing he was just about to land, I pushed Ezekiel on his shoulders, practically shoving him out of Alex's reach. His wolf snarled before attempting to claw at Ezekiel's face. Luckily, I managed to get him out of the way before his pointed claws even touch his skin. I jumped back, my heel crashing onto the sculpture right behind me, whimpering as the pain shot throughout my whole body in a single flash. I gasped, watching wide-eyed as Alex's wolf crashed straight into the wall with a piercing thud. "Alex!" I shouted, but the sound of his name didn't seem to make his wolf turn nor flinch as if my voice couldn't reach him no matter how loud I scre
