[Fergus POV]After he had finished telling me those things, I could see the sorrow and terror in his eyes, and something within of me made the decision to pay Oliver more attention and give him more listening ears.After giving everything a very good thought, I returned back to my seat to have some more conversation with Oliver. I had been standing and was ready to leave the restaurant when I stopped to give everything a very good thought."I need you to fill me in on everything that has been going on between you and Bethany, as well as all you know about her and everyone who works with her, including their names and job titles.Please tell me everything you know about her family, especially how powerful they are and who they are willing to attack in order to exact their vengeance and provide them joy.And as a final point, I need you to promise not to lie to me because if you do.I shall make the tigers tear your flesh to shreds by feeding you to them while you are still alive."I as
★[Freya's POV]★As soon as I saw the expressions on her face and heard the way she spoke, I had the distinct impression that my grandmother had followed me to my new place of employment due to the manner in which she spoke.I couldn't help but wonder if or not all elderly folks behave in the same manner, always being irritable even in response to the smallest of provocation or circumstance.The frame of mind I needed to cultivate was one in which I maintained my composure and behaved consistently toward her in the same manner as I do toward my grandmother, and I chose to proceed in that direction."Please forgive me ma'am, I was just so appreciative of his kindness and the job he had offered to me!" I stated those things to Ms. Morgan with a trace of a smile on my face as I inched my way closer to her in the general direction she was facing."Hmm... How well do you communicate with others, and have you ever had a job that required you to interact directly with clients or customers?" S
★[Fergus POV]★At the very moment that we arrived at my residence, Oliver was following closely behind us in his vehicle.Without wasting any time, we quickly emerged from our various automobiles and made our way into the living room of my home.The majority of my guys at the mansion had expressions that were filled with interest as a result of the kind of order they were waiting for and watching Oliver and I come inside the house. This was owing to the fact that we were the ones who walked in first.As soon as we entered the living room, Oliver and I sat down on the couch, and immediately after, a glass of wine was brought over to each of us and poured into our respective wine glasses."I want you to know that, you are my family, and whatever it is that happens, I will always protect you as my family!" [translated] "I want you to know that, you are my family!" I spoke quietly while maintaining eye contact with Oliver and looking him in the eyes as I did so.It was clear that he was e
★[Freya's POV]★After putting in a nice long day at work, it was finally time for my duty to be done at work, and I felt so joyful and good that all I wanted was to keep working that day even though it was finally finished.It was time for those of us who worked the morning shift to start our day, and it was also time for the folks who would be taking our place later in the day to arrive at work.I was walking toward the changing room to retrieve my belongings from my locker when I heard a voice calling my name from the direction of the lockers.When I turned around, I was somewhat taken aback to see that Jordan was the one calling my name. He had a huge grin on his face the entire time he was talking to me."Hey, Freya! I hope you had a good day at work today." Before he asked me the question in an approach that was quite cordial and courteous, he strolled up to me while grinning broadly from ear to ear."Indeed, today's work went well, and I found myself looking forward to it. I wan
★[Freya's POV]★I stood at the same spot where I had gotten out of Mr. Richards' vehicle, and I tried to figure out why he was so interested in my life. I couldn't come up with a satisfactory answer.I was not prepared to let any drama into my life at that point in time because I was having a great time at my new place of employment, and the anticipation of always having such a great day at work was all I was willing to fantasize about at the time. I was not ready to let any drama come into my life.I didn't want to throw away any more time trying to figure out what might or might not be there, so I made the executive decision to go ahead and head back towards my house.While I was walking back to my house, I couldn't get the notion of Jordan out of my thoughts. Also, I couldn't stop thinking about how quickly Emily seemed to think that Jordan and I might possibly have a thing for each other."No, Freya, you can't afford to get distracted now over some dark and magnificently looking g
★[Fergus POV]★As soon as I realized anything was going on at her location, I hung up the phone because I knew I had to act quickly and I was certain something was going on there.I invited Morpheus to come over to my apartment, where we talked about everything I observed during my phone chat with Isla, including how I realized that she was under some sort of pressure when I noted that she wasn't speaking as normally as she normally does."Well... Boss, you did say that you invited her here, didn't you?" Morpheus spoke to me and questioned me while his eyes were fixed intently on mine."Yeah, I contacted her, and she must be on her way here by this evening!" I responded to him in an even tone."We will have to wait until that evening to see what is going on with her, but one thing that we will need to do here is to shore up our security, and we will also need to send someone as soon as possible to keep an eye on Isla!"These were the words and recommendations that came from Morpheus,
★[Freya's POV]★I struggled to draw a breath when I opened my eyes and sat up on the bed. When I tried to shake the sensation of dread that had followed me from my dream, my heart was pounding so hard in my chest that it hurt. In it, I was anointed as the queen of evil energy, and it was said that I would bring about the extinction of my race.I gave myself a light head shake to clear my mind of the dream. I reassured myself that it was just a dream. But the experience was incredibly real and vivid. I was unable to shake the impression that there was more to it than what was being presented.Unease came over me as I got ready for the day and went about my routine, and I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. The dream had made an impression on me, and I couldn't deny its significance any longer.The dream came back to me later that night as I was beginning to nod off to sleep. This time, I found myself standing in front of a crowd that consisted of my, other dark beings li
★[Freya's POV]★I stepped into the locker room at our place of business to retrieve my belongings from my locker so that I could begin my day. After that, I turned around and noticed Emily seated at a nearby table, thumbing through the pages on her phone. I took the initiative to introduce myself to her and strike up a discussion with her.We began our time together by greeting one another and chatting for a few minutes before Emily brought up a subject that piqued my interest.Emily remarked, with a scowl on her face, "I was chatting to my brother, Mr Richards, yesterday after work, and he told me that he has no intention of ever getting married," Mr Richards had told her."Doesn't it strike you as strange or funny?" She uttered those comments while displaying an expression of anxiety on her face."That's an intriguing fact. Why doesn't he want to get married?" I was interested, so I inquired."I have no idea. He simply states that he has no desire to establish a long-term relationsh
★[Freya's POV]★I sat at her desk, staring at her laptop with a frown on my face. I had just received her latest bill for rent and utilities, and it was higher than I had expected. I knew i needed to start earning some money to help cover the costs, but i wasn't sure where to start.My best friend Mitchell walked into the room, and I looked up to greet her."Hey, Mitch," I said, with a sigh. "I just got my bill for the month, and it's way higher than I thought it would be. I need to start earning some money."Mitchell sat down next to me, putting her arm around my shoulders. "Don't worry, Freya. We'll figure it out. Have you thought about getting a job?"I nodded. "Yeah, but I'm not sure where to start. I've never worked and also study before, and I don't have any experience with such lifestyle."Mitchell grinned. "That's not a problem. We can start by looking online for part-time jobs that are suitable for students like us."I brightened at the suggestion. "That's a good idea. Where
★[Fergus POV]★As I walked into Jayden's room, I immediately noticed that something was wrong. His bed was unmade, his clothes were scattered all over the floor, and he was nowhere to be seen.I called out his name, but there was no response. I searched the room frantically, looking for any clues as to where he might have gone. But there was nothing.I turned to my security men, hoping that they would have some answers. But they too were at a loss. None of them had seen or heard anything suspicious.I felt a wave of panic wash over me. Jayden had become like family to me, and the thought of him being in danger was unbearable.I immediately called for backup, instructing my security men to search the house and the surrounding area for any sign of Jayden. I knew that we had to act fast if we were going to find him.As we searched, my mind raced with all kinds of horrible scenarios. What if he had been kidnapped? What if he had run away?But after hours of searching, we finally found him
★[Fergus POV]★I was still in the room I was kept and bound by my hands and feet when I suddenly heard a loud blast from the outside and I couldn't get what was happening, but I was sure that it was something serious.As I strained against the ropes that bound me, I listened carefully, trying to determine the source of the commotion. It sounded like gunfire, and my heart began to race as I realized that I might be in serious danger.I strained against the ropes again, trying to free myself, but they held firm. I cursed under my breath, feeling frustrated and powerless.Suddenly, I heard footsteps outside the door, and my heart leapt into my throat. Were they coming for me?The door burst open, and I saw a figure silhouetted against the bright light of the hallway. For a moment, I couldn't make out who it was, but then I saw the uniform and realized that it was a member of the local police force."Are you all right?" the officer asked, rushing over to untie me.I nodded, feeling a sens

As a woman, I couldn't help but feel concerned for Emily and her brother. I wondered why they would suddenly move out without informing me, their close friend. My mind raced with all kinds of possibilities - had they been in some kind of trouble? Were they in danger? I couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't right.I asked the guard if he knew anything more about their sudden departure, but he simply shrugged and told me he wasn't at liberty to say. Frustrated and worried, I decided to head back home and try to get in touch with Emily and her brother as soon as possible.As I drove back, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. Emily and I had been friends for years, and we had always been there for each other through thick and
★[Freya's POV]★I was at work when I received a call from Mitchell my friend, she broke the good news to me about the university we have both been applying for, that their admission list was out and she had checked for both of us with our names among the admitted students. As soon as Mitchell told me the news, my heart raced with excitement. I couldn't believe it - we had both been accepted to the university of our dreams! All the hard work, late nights and stress had finally paid off.I felt an immense sense of pride and accomplishment knowing that I had achieved one of my life goals.But at the same time, a sense of nervousness crept in. Going to university would be a huge change for me - leaving my hometown, meeting new people and facing new challenges. I knew it wouldn't be easy, but I was determined to make the most of this opportunity.Mitchell and I had been dreaming of attending this university for years, and now that it had become a reality, I felt grateful for having
★[Fergus POV]★I woke up in the morning and I decided to check on Jayden the boy I had helped into my house in his room and I was shocked to find him not in the room and only saw a piece of paper with a note telling me that u shouldn't bother looking for him, that he has gone for good. As soon as I read the note, a wave of confusion and concern washed over me. What could have made Jayden leave without saying goodbye? Was he in some kind of trouble? I couldn't help but feel responsible for him, considering that I had taken him into my house in the first place.I quickly got dressed and started searching the house for any clues or signs of what could have happened. I checked the living room, the kitchen, and even the backyard, but there was no sign of Jayden. I even tried calling his phone, but it went straight to voicemail.As the minutes turned into hours, my worry started to turn into panic. I couldn't shake the feeling that something was terribly wrong. I decided to reach out
★[Freya's POV]★As I stepped out of the bathroom, the cold air hit my damp skin, sending shivers down my spine. I quickly wrapped a towel around myself and made my way to the closet to pick out my clothes for the day.As I dressed up, I couldn't help but dwell on the thoughts that had been plaguing my mind for days. The stress of work had been taking a toll on me lately, and I found myself constantly questioning my choices and decisions.I tried to push these thoughts to the back of my mind as I headed out the door, but they kept resurfacing, causing my heart to feel heavy and my steps to falter. I knew I needed to find a solution to this problem, but the answer eluded me.As I walked towards the bus stop, I felt a sense of unease settling in. It was as if the weight of the world was on my shoulders, and I couldn't shake it off. I tried distracting myself by scrolling through my phone, but the words on the screen blurred together, and I couldn't focus.Finally, I reached my workplace,
★[Fergus POV]★As we stood there panting, with our weapons still drawn, I couldn't help but feel a surge of relief that we had emerged victorious from the battle. The rogue werewolves had been causing trouble in the area for weeks now, and it was a relief to finally put an end to their attacks.I looked around at my fellow pack members, all of us bearing wounds and bruises from the fight. We had fought well together, and I felt a sense of pride in our strength and unity.But our victory was not yet complete. The lone survivor of the rogue pack lay bound and unconscious at our feet, and we needed to interrogate him to find out more about their motives and plans.We carefully lifted him up and carried him back to our base camp, where we could question him in a secure location. As we tended to our wounds and prepared for the interrogation, I couldn't shake the feeling that this was only the beginning of a much larger conflict.But for now, we had won this battle, and I allowed myself a m
★[Freya's POV]★As I arrived home from work, I felt the weight of the day finally catching up to me. I longed for some peace and quiet, a chance to unwind and gather my thoughts. Once inside my room, I collapsed onto my bed and stared up at the ceiling, lost in my own world of contemplation.My mind wandered to the impending release of the University admission list, which had been causing me immense anxiety. The anticipation was almost unbearable, as I had put in so much effort and hard work to get to this point.But beyond that, I couldn't help but think about everything that had been happening in my life recently. The constant pressure to excel in my studies, the expectations of my family and friends, and the struggles of being a young woman in a world that often felt indifferent to my struggles.Despite all of this, I refused to give up on my dreams. I was determined to succeed and prove that I was capable of achieving great things, regardless of the obstacles in my path.As I lay
