I don’t have any idea where we are heading to, but I am aware that we are still inside the Blood Moon pack’s territory. We walked through passages inside the prison cell that I am oblivious it exists. The prisoner’s eyed us, rogues and wolves with missing limbs growled and snarled, but they speak none. Ragged looking as if they have long forgotten how to.My stomach churned at the sight.It’s horrible.“Did we do this...?” I trailed off.For unknown reason guilt ate me up. I felt so bad as I watched them. Had I been horrible that’s why I was also placed on the same predicament as them? I recalled, when I agreed to locked up the rogues that we often caught. But I have no idea that they are suffering from our hands. I may be the Luna, but I was not allowed down her. They told me it was dangerous and the only one who can freely walked here is the Alpha, Noah and a few powerful council.Klay glanced over his shoulder and looked me. He have taken the lead, while behind me followed Bardo. H
“W—we failed to get her, boss.” SLAM. When David heard those sorry excuse, he became livid. His eyes darkened and his veins pop from his hand and from his neck. He was mad, but more on frustrated. “You stupid fools!” He snarled. “It is just a simple task, yet you cannot even do it?! What I am paying for?!”His voice boomed as his men lowered their head as they should be. Blinded by his anger, he pulled his gun. BANG. A man fell on the floor. He was lifeless. Mathew Mason, who witnessed what happened fell pale. He felt his breathe hitched as he watched David killed a man with ease as if their life does not matter. He gulps the lump that was forming in his throat just by imagining that it could be him, his wife and Natasha, his daughter. Their blood, which would swept the floor as they died. It made him shuddered. Terrified at what this man could be capable of. Remorse flooded his insides. If only he wasn’t greedy enough, but the other part of his head was telling him that he wa
“So the greater Romanov Salvador chose to marry.” A man on his 60’s chuckled alongside with the other. They are clad on the black as Debussy’s Claire de Lune from Suite Bergamasque continuously play on the background. A few were talking, but mainly their group, to where this man belongs to seems to be in that ball with a different purpose, especially to the woman beside the old man, who is clad on an elegant red dress. Her high cheekbones indicated that she is one of the elite. Her chink eyes and her plump limps, which made every man admired her. But her face made them wary. She looks cruel, although beautiful. Claire Lee. A sophisticated bachelorette at the age of 25. “So, what do you think Claire?” The old man turned to her. He was smirking, knowing what her reaction would be.Claire raised her eyebrows, “Why does it matter?” She said. “Of course, it matters!” The old man laughs. All of the person around the table focus their attention to Cindy. They seems curious and was ant
“That woman is crazy.” When she get back to her room or more specifically to a dusty storage room left for Anna, she was mumbling.It has been a long day, but to add up, it has been crazy enough. Unbelievable. The mere thought that Romanov’s mother is asking her to bear a child for him? She was clearly insane. Are his family like this? No wonder that they were feared. Whose mother is on her right mind to offer somebody to sleep with her son—but then, realization hit Anna.Why is she thinking as if that is one of the most distasteful thing? When in fact, Anna had boldly seduced Romanov already.Her cheeks flared.“O—oh my god! I—it was because I wanted to take revenge! It wasn’t as if I meant it!”Or did she?Their flesh being close together. Their breathe laying near to each other’s throat and as they drove themselves to reach their climax—“Oh god, stop!” Anna was embarrassed.She quickly shook her head with so much vigor.Anna felt shameless. How can she have the nerve to even think

When he moved, the woman faintly groaned, “B—baby, ohh.”Top hair was messy and untidy. She virtually has nothing hidden; her back is naked. Her forehead began to perspire. As she enjoyed each stroke of pleasure, her lips parted. She cocked her head to the side and placed it on his shoulder.Laura Monteverde was in complete happiness as Alexander Salvador continued to manipulate her with his skilled hands and lips, starting at her chest.She shivered, aware of how close to her peak she was. “G—god, you’re so fucking good, Alex,” she exclaimed.“And you’re so fucking sweet, baby.”Her spine tingled as she heard his baritone voice.“You always likes my taste when you fuck me,” Erika chuckled.Alex and Erika are classmates. They share a common ending. He was expelled for having terrible blood and being cursed, and Erika was banished because she causes problems. If they have anything in common, it’s that they can relate to each other’s loneliness, though neither of them will admit it.Wea
“Mr. Salvador wanted you to join him for breakfast.” It is one of Romanov’s men, who had greeted Anna earlier that morning.She was groggy. Her eyes are red, and her temples are throbbing for an upcoming headache. Sleep deprived, black bags hang underneath her eyes. The stubborn Anna wanted to refused, but she knew that she can’t live last long, if she do that. If she dies her, her efforts to provoke Romanov and take revenge to the Mason’s would only be futile. Thinking of her mother’s triumphant eyes last night made her blood boil in anger. Just you wait and see. “O—okay, I’ll go.” Anna swallowed her fear. “Follow me.”The man leads all the way, and it was the first time she had allowed herself to see and peer what the Salvador’s are proud of. The floor is made of marbles, and the walls are painted in a royal blue shade, while the ceiling seems crafted by most skilled artist. It held a magnificent view of angels, and a few men on their feet. It looks…beautiful. Anna whispered.
“I detested this clothing, Mom! It’s garish and very bright!” Natasha sighed, a look of displeasure passed by her eyes. She screamed loudly, echoing. Following her constant complaints over the black dress she was wearing, stomping feet started to happen again. Despite her disdain, she was unable to intervene with her mother, who observes her in silence, as the dinner was planned for them by Mrs. Mason herself. She see this opportunity fits, when David alongside with his men followed suit to the ball. “Natasha, please lower your voice!” Her mother snarls, “ If you don’t want to be dragged out of here, keep still. You got it?”“Natasha Mason only rolled her eyes, “As if you can intimidate me with that.”Natasha, however, knew exactly why. Everyone is focused on them. People are whispering and arguing, and she understood why when she saw several of them give them an accusatory gaze. They are still aware of the rumour that her father was wrongfully jailed for having narcotics in his han
The next morning was a bliss. For Raquel, it was, but for Eliot, it isn’t.When she noticed the grim look plastered on his face, Raquel did not hesitate to ask, “Is everything’s alright?”Unlike her, Eliot was already fully clothed compared to the bareness they share last night, and the thirst they both patched up with flames. But his face seems to be I grave, grievance worries that she was oblivious about.Is it about last night? She don’t think so. When they did it, he doesn’t seems regretful, no remorse and lament that she could perceive as they make love to each other.If it is love making, and not just some sex he had been pursuit, because of his anger.“It’s my father.” Eliot brushed his hair, already messing the tangle knots that lay sprouted on top of his head. “Maids called, he had been diagnosed last night, and they said he is in the ER.”“Oh my god.” Worries flashed before her eyes. “Do you wanted to go to him? I can packed some things up, and let’s just grab some breakfast
“How long had I been out?” Eliot asked.So far, his conditions are getting better. He is already recovering from the worst scenario that Raquel feared he’ll fall once he lay there on that hospital bed.“Just a couple of days, but everything’s good.” She was busy peeling an apple as she glanced on her shoulder to look at him. “Jerome said that you can be discharge tomorrow, since you’re okay now, but they are still going to run some test, Eliot.”“Who’s Jerome?” A tiny bit of jealousy made his chest twitched.Raquel noticed it.“It’s the doctor, Eliot.” Raquel rolled her eyes.“I’m just making sure that no one’s trying to pursue you yet, Raq.” He joke, chuckling“Oh, don’t be absurd.” Raquel placed down the apple and the knife in the table and dried her hands. She grab the plate and walked near to his bed. “Are you still not going to believe me after I confessed?”“Of course, I do.” Eliot hold her hand. “Because I love you.”Their eyes meet.Raquel softly smiled at him, “And I love you
“I—” Raquel gulps. The awkward air made the atmosphere between them thickens. Even with David, she had never been this nervous, only with Eliot. Only with this man, whom she always wonder—“Why?”“Why?” Eliot looked at her.“Why do you wanted to help me?” She was straightforward. “…so bad?”Raquel didn’t know, but Eliot was like a breathe of fresh air, away from the abuse. He was the same stranger. Always carefree. Always the risk-taker. He was full of freedom, while she’s not. And she will not drag someone to the same hell just because she was chained there.Elliot is just…too precious to be contaminated by her toxic family.“And I wasn’t blind, I don’t want to assume, but your action speaks of a pursuant man.” She bit her lips. “And you know…I am married, I am no longer free, Eliot.”“Raquel…” Eliot took a deep breathe, before looking at her. “Would your doubt be compensated, if I told you that I like you?”“Don’t give me that crap, Eliot.” With him around, Raquel felt free expressin
Raquel knew for a fact that Eliot is somebody, a sin from that island she must forget, but her heart couldn’t. The memories of the night they shared would came back, on how much she moaned with pleasure, forgetting the marriage she was forced to, while they were together.Eliot Duke made her forget every pain, and the torment meant to made her suffer. When she rejected him, Raquel knew it ended, that the fate that was playing between them was already cut in loose. Not until seeing the great Eliot Duke in the flesh to the charity ball she had accompanied her mother.“Tired of forcing yourself to smile, Mrs. Smith?” Eliot’s voice filled her ears, and unconsciously, Raquel stepped away from him. “Am I really that scary, huh?”She hardened her resolve.Don’t do anything silly. Raquel was begging herself. Don’t do something that would only hurt you badly at the end. She reminded herself about what happened to David that night before the whole world knew that they had spend the night togeth
“David! Open the door! David!” Grace was in a hurry.Beads of sweat was trickling on her forehead. A look of worry past across her face. Her hair was loose behind her back, and she isn’t properly dress like she was used to be.“What is it?” A groggy voice came.It didn’t take her another minute. When the door was pushed open, she quickly get inside as if being chase.David looked at her as if she had grown two heads.“What have gotten into you?” He was frowning. “And you look scared. Is there a problem, honey—”“Don’t you dare call me that stupid endearment!” When she faced the man she used to get wooed, there are no blinded affection. Her face was boiling with anger. “Father told me what you did. How can you do this, David?! After all?! You betrayed us!”“Betray you?” David raised his eyebrows. “I didn’t betray you. Didn’t the authority find the drugs on his trunk?” He chuckled.“You know what will happen—!” Grace was frustrated. “But do you know that I have been stop by thugs, while

Anita is kind just like how Doctor Gonzales described her. It was later that day Raquel meet Anita when she paid a visit for the pair. “I was worried when I saw the two of you in the riverbanks. Oh god! I felt like I am going to have a heart attack by the sight of you, Raquel, and Oh! Your wounds!” Anita exclaimed. Her voice is loud, it echoed to the wall, but it was her expression that put ease Raquel’s worry, and fear. She may be old, white hair may lay sprouting on top of her head, but Anita moves as if she were much younger than her age. And Raquel…actually likes here. “I owe you, our life.”It was true. If it isn’t for Anita, Raquel and Eliot may have died, and she couldn’t let that happen, not when she hasn’t found out the truth yet, and the identity of those men. Raquel knew who have may sent those men after them, but she was still unsure, not when it is still not yet confirmed. It could be David, who may have any idea what has been going on
Had fate been playing their lives?Last night, Eliot promised that if Raquel wouldn’t ask for his help, then he wouldn’t forced her to, but seeing her inside the company he owns gave him another reason to approach her. This was their 3rd coincidental meeting.Raquel.But his trance didn’t last long. Eliot could feel his blood boiling with anger upon seeing whom she is with.“Oh, I wanted this one! Doesn’t this look great, Raq?” It was the woman, who hurt Raquel before. “Buy this for me!”She looks happy, while Raquel seems like she was forcing herself to smile again. Her face dim, her smile faltering.“Do you have a set of this diamond ring?” The woman asked again.Seeing the panic embracing her eyes, Eliot found himself intervening.“Justin.” Eliot looked at his manager. “I’ll take it from here.”“Yes, Sir.” His manager excuse himself.Eliot faced the two.The woman who was with Raquel faced him curiously.“I’m Eliot Duke, the owner of this store, how may I help you?” He flashed a s
David did not ask what happened. After the confrontation, nobody speak. Nobody dare to bring it even. He just left, and everything was back to normal, except that he isn’t as harsh as before.He cooked, before he left, and Raquel couldn’t be feeling grateful for once. But that doesn’t mean she was already at ease.Staring at the paper on her hand, she let out a loud sigh, “Am I doing it, right?” She asked herself.The document she have gotten her hands onto contain the truth. It is her birthplace. Doctor Vergara gave it to her, before he left. He told Raquel that if she wanted the truth, then this place may be the key to every question she seeks.“But this is what I wanted.” She whispered to herself.Or more likely she was trying to convince herself to do so.Her phone rings.When she saw the name registered on the screen, her face hardened.It is her mother. The mother she grew up with, who had been feeding lies to Raquel.The call died down, but when she dialed her number again, Raq
