CHAPTER 85 LENA. "Do you think this is ever going to end?" I asked after we sat in silence for a few minutes. He turned his head to look at me. "What are you talking about?" "The deaths. It started all of a sudden. Will it end the same way it started?" Damon leaned back against the roof and placed both of his arms behind his head as a form of cushion. "Maybe. Maybe not." "Why do you think so?" He turned his head to look at me. "Because demons don't stop until they get what they want? I've read a few things about demonism and they are unstoppable, no matter what." "You know, I was scared today," I said, finally picking up the courage to speak to downtown about my experience back at the girl's rest room. "Why?" "I saw the demon today. It was during the speech after Mr McMahon's death and I—" I couldn't tell him about the voices. Not yet at least. "I went to the restroom. I heard noises coming from the cubicle and I thought it was someone else in th
CHAPTER 86 LENA. I couldn't process anything that was happening around me as I was focused on soothing the searing pain that tore through my body as I tried to shift. I let out a half cry, half howl as I turned. White hairs sprouted out of my body and my claws shot out, digging into the wooden floor and cracking wood. I felt the anatomy of my mouth change as my fangs came out and the last thing I heaed before I broke through my window was the sound of my father calling my name. I woke up feeling pains in every part of my body. I was back in my bed and when I saw the scratches on my body, I immediately sat up. My father was seated on the edge of the bed, looking worried. Aunt Raya stood by the door with a smile on her face and Jason sleeping in her arms. "You scared the hell out of us, Lena," My father said as he leaned over to stroke my messed up hair. "We didn't realize you were going to shift and fully turn tonight." I took my time to look around my room. My
CHAPTER 87 LENA. One minute, I was battling with concentrating on his face while speaking and the next, his mug crashed to the floor and he had me up against the wall, kissing and grinding into me as he caught both of my hands and placed them over my head. I was overcome by the intensity of it because I hadn't been expecting it. But I wanted it. I fucked with it. He coarsed my lips open and finally, his tongue slid in, swirling around mine as his other hand slid down my waist. He pulled me by the waist, letting my hand go. Lifting me off the ground with surprising ease, he carried me over to his couch and lay me gently on it before finally pulling away and staring into my eyes with a smile. "Fuck," he sighed and placed his head on my chest. My arms curled around his back, reveling in his broadness. "You're mine," He looked back up at me, his eyes glazing over. "You're mine, Lena. Do you know that?" "Of course, I am yours. And you are mine." He climbed out of the c
CHAPTER 88 LENA. "I can't kiss you, Damon." I said as I pushed his helmet into his chest. "Why?" He asked and placed the. Helmet on his left thigh. I looked towards the house, scanning for signs of anyone. "Because I don't want my Dad seeing." "Uhm, you're eighteen, remember? And it's not bad if you have a boyfriend." I sighed. "Fine. Just a quick kiss and I'll be gone." He took my hand and pulled me to him, not budging even when I fought him. "And when are we going to see next?" "Whenever we can. We'd make calls and text most of the time—" He pulled me into him, capturing my lips in his as he kissed me softly. When I tried to pull away, he gripped my waist and pulled me back. He continued to kiss me till I gave him a hard push. He laughed. "You're scared of your Dad, huh?" I looked back. "No. I am not. I don't just want to answer any questions," When his face fell, I sighed. "Yet." "Fine. I get it. I'll see you whenever I can. I can come tonight."
CHAPTER 89 LENA. I stepped out of her house, still slightly confused. If this tome contained enough information, maybe I would be able to figure things out. My father who was pacing around and looking at the gnomes turned to look at me. He smiled and walked towards me. "Did she tell you anything helpful?" I looked down at the book and rubbed the top before sighing. "Not so much. She just handed this book to me and told me to follow what's in it. Probably contains important information." He looked down at the book and then behind me before slipping his hand into his pocket. "Very well then. We should head back home. It's getting late." Nodding, we both walked towards the main road where my father's car was parked. I spent most of the drive home reading through the pages of the book and digesting every detail. It was going to be a long read, seeing that it was painfully detailed. When we finally got home, my father got a call about a meeting being held at the town hall again. He
CHAPTER 90 LENA. By the time I was done dressing up, I could barely step out of the bathroom. My body seemed to be immobile as I contemplated on stepping out of my bathroom. He has seen me naked! I hadn't expected it to happen that way. Shit. Shit. Shit. Closing my eyes, I reminded myself several times that Damon was my mate and there was nothing to be ashamed of. If I thought that was enough confidence boost, then I was fucking deceiving myself. Well, fuck it. What was the worst thing to happen even if he saw me naked. I pulled the door to the bathroom open and walked back to my room. Damon was on my bed, laying on his back with both of his arms underneath his head as he stared up at the ceiling and swung his legs from the end of the bed. He bent his head towards me and sat up with a smile on his face. "Why did you bail like that?" "Because you saw me naked? And why didn't you even send a text that you were going to break into my room like that?" "Because y
CHAPTER 91 LENA. "Lena, you should take a break," my father said from the door of my room. I'd been sitting there for a while now, reading and taking notes. I didn't want to leave any information out. I was getting more insights and also confused. "You've been reading that book for a long time now. Come have lunch with us,," I twisted in my seat and turned to look at my father. "I really want to but I have to finish this. It's my destiny to save Willow Pack from this demon. I don't have much time left." "I brought lunch," Another voice came. It was Aunt Raya. She was bearing a tray in her hand. I sighed and smiled at her before pushing my seat back and standing to my feet. "Thank you, Aunt Raya. Really." "Now you can eat and read at the same time. Let her be." My father sighed and ruffled my hair. "Make sure you don't get too absorbed into this. I don't want to lose you." "Oh, she has to be absorbed to actually be able to do anything. You know that, right?" "Sad
CHAPTER 92 LENA. The roads were empty, eerily unusual but I knew the reason. As I rode down the path that led the woods, I looked around in search of any of the guards. I was well known by everyone, all thanks to my father who was a member of the cabinet, friendly with everyone and had also lost his wife mysteriously. I didn't want anyone calling home and I also did not want my father going sick with worry. I left my phone at home. Frogs croaked in the distance. It had rained quite heavily last night and the atmosphere was still damp. I finally slipped out of my bike when I got to a rough and stony path, as I continued to wheel down the path. "All you need is a clearing. Doesn't have to be in the woods. It can be on a hill, a mountain or the sorts. Just somewhere you are surrounded by nature and can be alone." The book had said and I was planning on following it. Finally, I stopped in front of a running stream. It was the only natural water body running in Willow Town a
