66 BA Naughty MaridelleSituated on the wall on his right is a simple wall clock with a wooden frame; its shorter hand kisses the number four while the longer hand almost points to number eleven. His eyelids is drooping; and there is already dark line under his eyes. Everyone except the guards are slumbering, but Alpha Lachlan did not sleep after the celebration. On his hand is a piece of paper he has been reading for the umpteenth times. His lack of sleep has deprived him of good understanding or it is just that the report on his hands needs perusing.“It's not over yet. It's not over.” He reiterated to remind himself he got a lot of work to do.Alpha Lachlan wanted to take his respite, but he couldn't neglect the urge to read the papers on his table. Right after he decided to sit and read the papers, he immediately wanted to slump himself on the bed. However, the report Lydia has sent to him is urgent.“The Alliance must have known this before me. I hope they had found a solution a
67 BA The Note He cursed under his breath. All the time he had for his self, this is the time he doesn’t want to get disturbed. Alpha Lachlan’s eyes landed on the wall clock. The clock says it still few minutes after five O’clock in the morning.“Who could be knocking on the other side of the door this early in the morning?” he hissed in smothered annoyance.Maridelle let a soft chortle out as she witnessed his Alpha’s face being shrouded with the expression he can pulverize the person who had disturbed them.“Relax…” she joked on how ridiculous, but adorable his face against the light of the dim-lit chamber.He raised a brow. “Yeah, rigth. It must have been one of the Omega’s bringing my coffee.”She flushed underneath him. She brought the coffee in together with the bread and…heat pooled on her cheeks. She left the note. “Maybe I should tell them to stop sending me coffee not until I tell them because as far as I had known you like sneaking around to watch me in my sleep.” He trie
68 BA Guess on it, Seb!There are more knocks coming from the unknown; and every knocks had gradually deepened the creases on his forehead.“I think you have to go to that door and open it,” Maridelle said to him. “It must be so important that after few unresponded attempts, that guy haven’t left.”On the clock, the hour hand points to number six. The time the nuisance, as what Alpha Lachlan has dubbed the person behind the door, has waited quite long. Alpha Lachlan has praised his patience and persistence. Just when he is about to open the door, the knocking has stopped.He glanced at Maridelle. He gave her the look of whether he would proceed opening the door or should he do the opposite. Maridelle signalled him to do the first option.“There must be a good reason behind the early disturbance,” he seriously uttered, but his tone is tinge with a little threat. “Must be an Alpha duty,” he added a second before the door slightly swung open. Alpha Lachlan had opened the door just enough
69 Brothel House (part 1)It took few minutes before Sebastian moved on on the thrill. He just wanted a bag of blood, but he got a suspense instead.He sat on the hood of the car, folding his arms in front of him. He is waiting for his companion.“Hey. Got you this.” Nyx shoved a bag of blood on his chest. Sebastian looked at her, puzzled. As far as he could remember, it is still less than twenty-four hours that she had shown how adamant she is of not giving him a bag of blood. “My twin told me you came knocking on his door, early at the morning to whine for a bag of blood.” She raised her hand signalling him not to interfere her speech. “That's a human blood. I know it's illegal, but I got my ways.”Sebastian took the bag with an eyebrow quizzically raised. “Thank you,” he politely remarked. “So that is how I will be getting my blood,” he added satisfied of the blood on his hands. It smells so good.He crafted on his mind the sentence to ask her what Alpha Lachlan should have answe
70 BA Brothel House (part 2)From afar, they witnessed Lavina being escorted towards the building. The door direclty closes as she comes in.“Lavina takes care of that place. I don’t have much information on her.” Beta Mellow journeyed his hands on the compartment of the car. “Here.” He handed Alpha Lachlan a manila folder. “This is all the information we have on her and that place.”Alpha Lachlan slides his hands inside the manila folder and took a couple of papers. “What does it says, Alpha?” Nyx forwarded her self to glance on the papers.“Some additional information for our mission.” Alpha Lachlan gave her the papers. “See it for yourself.”“Pretty impressive. If they are making this place unnoticeable, she wouldn’t dress like that.” Nyx commented. “Her entrance is grand. Look around the place. Like bruhhh. This is getting interesting.”Nyx has said the truth. The building got the worn out, need-to-be-repaired building look. The could all say that it has perfectly blended around;
71 BA Surprise Clyde has heard it. “Who, Al—” he halted himself, bearing in mind what the Alpha has told him: don’t call him by any name especially his title. “Who had recognized you?”“That woman, Lavina,” he replied in whisper. “She stared at me. It was a scrutinizing one.”“I don’t mean to invalidate you, but she is always like that. The first time I was here, she stared to me like that too. It is pretty normal, I think.” Clyde explained, ensuring him that their disguise is not in danger.However, Alpha Lachlan has felt the strange atmosphere. He has to confirm. A force is telling him to be certain.“I am leaving… I will try to sneak around. Alert the rest if something would not go well. I’ll count on you.”Alpha Lachlan has left immediately after his words are given.He strolled towards the same door that Lavina and the few men had entered. His hands landed on the door knob. His heart beats erratically. He clearly doesn’t know what will welcome him after the door opened. But he g
72 BA Held CaptiveHis fingers run on the armrest of his golden throne; an elbow is supporting his upper body; his legs are crossed. Before his sight, in the center of the aisle, a huge silver cage sits. Inside are their precious captive: Nyx’s and Alpha Lachlan’s wolves, Beta Mellow, and Sebastian.Viller tilted his neck sideways, to and fro. “I got pain on my muscles. They are all heavy. I’ll certainly remind myself to bring a lot of chaperone with me.”Hodor rolled his eyes. “I am bored. This is very time consuming.” The king of vampires couldn’t count the times he had drummed his fingers on the armrest, waiting for the prisoners to wake up. He had waited long hours drafting a speech on his head, add good ideas, revise; Hodor had literally did all sort of what he can to relieve himself of the boring hours.Jek casted a look on Viller. But he remained still. Vamoire is not speaking as well.“Are you sure you did not overdose them with that certain drug?” Hodor adjusted himself on th
73 BA The Rebel Prince of The VampireThe floor is arctic against their butt; cockroaches and rats skitter on top of their shoes. A scant amount of light rays get through the crevices of the small window made out of rusty thick iron bars. None of them spoke within the cold hours of leaning their backs on the ice-cold walls. Few hours had passed, still the news of Maridelle taking risk doesn't sink well on Alpha Lachlan's mind; neither Sebastian could say good things to aside from commenting it is a stupid idea. But their intermittent sighs had said it all.“We need to get out of this place before Mari would arrive.” Alpha Lachlan spoke in a low voice. “She can’t come here. Maybe they were just bluffing…” Hours had past still he can’t believe how Maridelle is taking too much risk for him.“How are we getting ourselves out of this stinky place?” Nyx sighed in despair.Alpha Lachlan landed his sight on Sebastian. Sebastian's stares are fixed on the cold dinghy floor of the prison. “Ma
