#Chapter85Raven’s Promise To The OceanI place my face on the glass window of Eliana’s beautiful white BMW, as we drive past now. I was amazed to see the town which was filled by two story buildings scattered around on either side of the roads. But when we hit the road, once again we were surrounded by land that stretched forever under the roof of the vast sky. “Wow” I whispered for the untempt time as I sat back and enjoyed the interior of the car at the same time enjoyed the moving scenery in front of me as the car moved along.“You really need to stop being surprised at every single thing we pass by.” Aya chuckles by me. “But I am thought. Surprised? I’m enthralled.” I couldn’t seem to stop smiling.“I take it’s a good thing that you happen to meet me then.” Eliana says from the from the driver’s seat, as I vigorously nod my head at her. “By the way with you two at the back, I feel like your chauffeur. So, where off to now ladies?” she says saluting at us from the front a
#Chapter86Do Not Open Your Mouth Raven“And of course, my parents too.” Eliana adds.“But why a mate though. What’s so special about a mate?” I question, confusion lacing my voice. Eliana looks my way for a second as a soft smile plays there. “You’ll know when the time comes.” “Come on now. You know that I’m not going to have one. So, tell me. Why? Why only a mate can stop their bloodthirst?” I poke holes on her face through my eyes as I keep glaring at her to reply.She looks at the rear-view mirror to Aya, asking her to answer my question. But Aya just shrugs. “Aren’t mates someone that the moon goddess paired for you to be. You love each other, be loyal to one another and live your life with them?” she answers with a question herself. “I know as much as Raven does. So please feel free to answer her. Anyways what’s so special about a mate anyways?”Eliana sighs due to our lack of knowledge. Or no knowledge I should say. “I believe, you haven’t met your mate correct?
#Chapter87Raven That Belongs To WoodThe silence doesn’t last long as her home or her mansion comes to view. Since we drive past the gate, we have been in the car for more less five to ten minutes. It might be the speed she was driving as she was keeping us informed. Or it might also be the amount of times she stopped to laugh her butt off.Anyways, her house is spectacular. It was white with glass windows that looked almost black, but you could see a shade of green to it. I got out of the car with my mouth wide open for the ravens to fly in. I silently follow Aya who was equally inviting the ravens as her jaw were hanging by her chest.Eliana seemed to have disappeared down the white staircase as she said something like ‘Welcome’. As I took the stairs, I could see the sofas and lounge chairs on the rooftop by the second floor, facing the calm evening ocean as the sun dipped in it. On the edge of it, I could see a glitter of water, forming a straight line walk in jacuzzi. Di
#Chapter88If Only Raven StayedAs I lay on my bed after the wonderful dinner, the cook presented, all sorts of scenarios play in my head. Of what we were going to do next. What next? The question fills my head as the dark night slowly starts to light up. I requested to be in a room that faces the woods so I can take its energy to calm my storming heart. But it did little to help. I know I need to be in it. So, as the small rays that pass through my window, lights up a path for me, I get off the bed and walk up to the large window that I left it open the whole night. I climb up the small wall encasing the balcony and take a step off it as I floated in the air before I softly landed on the hard-cemented flooring. Then I leapt into the woods. I ran as if I was being chased. My own thoughts haunted me. I ran deep within the forest, where even the sun’s rays couldn’t find me anymore.I willed the trees to cover me better, hide me from my horrific future that I didn’t want to be
#Chapter89Hunting RavenEliana Tessa CastellanosMy life kind of feels empty now that the sisters both have decided to leave. We might have formed a bond over the past few days we have been together. I still don’t know, how they saved me but I’m still grateful that they did. They are a secretive pair of sisters, drastically contradictory both in features and personalities alike.Aya was the overprotective sister. Her light blond hair shimmered in the light. Her pale complexation made her brown eyes lighter or darker depending on the time of day. She is very tall for a werewolf and very strong, might I add very beautiful for a werewolf. It might be due to the Alpha blood in her. I doubt that they know I’m aware of this. A normal werewolf can’t take half of what our journey offered. She’s a very uptight person especially to strangers. But once you get to know her, she’s really not. It’s just a wall she tries to build around herself to ward off everyone.While Amara is a who
#Chapter90A Lone RavenWe have settled down in a small one room apartment that we shared with two other humans, Mary and Sophie. We met them at work or where Aya works. When we went in the small restaurant by the beach to ask for job, they immediately took her in. Even though it was small, it was lively and busy with humans and werewolves alike who filled tables after table, both inside and out.Aya refused me to go to work. She says that my big mouth will lead me to trouble eventually. And in a busy restaurant like that, there are too many eyes and ears to judge us. But after two days of doing nothing, I went to hunt down jobs myself. I found a small café to work in which was a few blocks away. They did not complain about the way I dressed. All they said was I had to wear an apron on top. That’s it. Not like I had to come out to the front. All I had to do was prepare drinks and hand it over. It’s all thanks to Oliver who kindly taught me how to use the machines.At firs
#Chapter91Same Old RavenI can feel myself wrapped up in a warm blanket as sleep slowly leaves my eyes. My body is rested and fully charged but it feels lifeless as I wake up to a cold empty room once again. The empty bed across me, almost mocks me. I can smell Aya’s scent. A sweet jasmine with a hint of fresh lotus lightly spreads across the room. She must have left by now as the scent only lingers. It does not fill the room. I get up off my bed and bring myself to shower before I head to a circle of life, I have been living since I got here. Everything is a repeat of the day before. I wake up each morning, go to work, come back late in the evening and go to bed again. Like a lifeless robot. I lived for money. To what it’s worth now. That I don’t know.I don’t know why I’m feeling like this. I need to get out of the depression I’m losing myself into. I need to get used to this so one day when Aya finds her mate, I can happily let her go. Yeah. That’s it. I’m going to work
#Chapter92Raven ready to flyI woke up to a delicious smell of pancake. But what made me more delighted was that I felt her presence. The sweet of jasmine and lotus filled the whole room. I sprinted out of my bed and ran out the door to Aya. I hugged her from the back as I didn’t give her any time to react. I inhaled her smell. It made my lip curl up in a smile and eyes filled with tears but I refused to shed. “Oh sister, I missed you so much.” I whisper on her back. She puts her hand on mine and squeezes it tightly before she makes me release my hold on her. She turns around and looks down at me as I am still hanging onto her. My chin rested on her chest as I looked up to her with a grin on my face.“Look at all these cute cheeks you have lost. You need to eat more.” She pinches both my cheeks and smiles at me. “Sit down. I’ll serve you some pancakes.” Then she turns around to make the last batch of pancake. But me being me, still hang around her. Once again hugging her fr
