~ISSAThis was my favorite part. The part where they believed that they were in control. The part where they believed that they were in the position to make demands. I was glad that Yulia had remained calm. It made me proud that she was confident in my ability to protect her.It also made me glad that she trusted me to see this through without fear in her eyes.I turned to look at the grin on the face of the man that brandished the small sledge hammer. He believed that he was going to use it on me. Tonight, his belief in this pot bellied bastard would change."That's it?" I asked The Swine."Yes, that would all," The Swine replied. Although, I could see the tension in his eyes and the way he carried himself. He was confused. Any other person in his presence would be pissing themselves in terror of the notorious Swine but I was not just any one. He had no idea who I was and tonight, he would get a taste.He was confused because I was calm. He was confused because I was not shaking i
~YULIAA stunned silence passed through the three of us before Issa broke the spell. "Is this going to be a problem, Thaddeus?" Issa asked casually as he swirled his drink lazily. He had on a bored facial expression.Pete's father cleared his throat and shook himself like he had just woken up from a bad dream. I stared wide eyed at Pete whose face had gone white with fear and disbelief. Even I was in disbelief. I had no idea how Issa had managed to turn things around but I could not deny that I was impressed.The questions that haunted me at the moment thus. Could I bear to watch Pete's father hurt his son? How fucked up was Issa's mind to actually come up with something as sick and twisted as this?Was Mr Thaddeus desperate and cruel enough to hurt his own blood to save his illegal business.I had forgotten that I had a drink in my hand as I glanced from Pete to his dad. I felt no pity for him after I realized he was just as sick and depraved like his dad.Thaddeus sighed and shook
~YULIAI had no idea who Issa really was. This night only made me realize just how little I knew him. Yes, he was the brother of my mother but for some reason that I did not know, Marianna had kept me... shielded me from seeing him.I was not even aware of his existence until she died. It came as a shock when I found out that Mother had left me in his care. I felt a little betrayed. He was my uncle to the outside world but behind closed doors, he was my sin.We left The Clit after Issa made Pete's father break his own son's arm and I hated to admit it but it had been fun to watch. There was a darkness about Issa that pulled me– tempted me and made me find him so attractive.Thaddeus had been right. His forest green eyes hid the darkness in him so well that it caught a lot of people by sheer surprise when he unleashed it. As we walked to where he parked his bike, a question popped in my head again. "How many people know of your Lycan status?" I asked him as we neared the bike."Just
~YULIAI watched the pictures with morbid interest. The branded skin spoke to me. They were letters... unknown letters and I knew that they held a hidden message. I had no idea what they meant but I knew that they meant something. "Where was the body found?" Issa asked as he arranged the pictures side by side, displaying the important parts of the photo shots. "Deep in the woods, close to a small river bank," Jamal said. "A bunch of teenagers up to no good came across it.""Why is this happening?" I asked, unable to take my eyes off the pictures. "That's what I am trying to find out," Jamal replied and he gave Issa a hard suspicious look. "Unless Issa can really tell us what is going on.""You make it sound like he is behind it," Miles said to Jamal with a frown. It was only natural for him to defend the Alpha and Lycan of his Pack."I am not saying he is behind it. I am saying it has happened twice ever since Issa returned to the pack," Jamal replied curtly."So you are saying th
~ISSAIt was happening all over again. The killings, the brandings, the torture. The detective was right, I was hiding something. I stayed up all night as I craved for Yulia's touch but I knew that if I stayed in the same room with her, she would not stop with the questions.I watched the sunrise as I stood by the window, dreading the confrontation that was going to take place between Yulia and I the moment we were going to lay eyes on each other. My servants had picked out my business outfit for today. A soft silk white long sleeved button shirt and grey pant suit with black Italian soft brogues. I walked to my large bed and picked up my suit jacket. Yulia was waiting impatiently as I reached the bottom of the stairway. She had her hands crossed with her right foot tapping the floor. Her eyes were wide and alert."You did not sleep at all, did you?" I asked as I watched her closely. "I could say the same about you," She brusquely replied. She picked up her bag pack and slung it
~YULIAI made sure to keep my head down as I entered the first class for today. It was a large lecture hall where the seats were arranged in an ascended order. I sat at the far upper left of the class in the back where I could blend in.I checked my phone to see if there was anything on the academy social media platform and I was somewhat relieved to see that video of the skirmish between Pete and I had disappeared. Maybe Issa had something to do with it, I was not so sure.The hall began to fill in with students with identical uniforms like mine. The only difference was that the boys had on trousers, while the girls had on short skirts.A couple of giggles erupted and I knew without looking that it was Leia and her cronies. I scoffed and slid down on my seat to avoid being seen. It was not like I was afraid of her or anything, she just seemed to love chaos and I was going through enough of that.An elderly woman with stark white hair tied in a bun and a serious expression on her fa
~ISSAI rolled my eyes as I bumped into Andrea in the elevator. I had no desire to engage in any squabble with her this morning. "Good morning to you too," She said as she saw me roll my eyes."I am not sure it's ever a good morning with you, Andrea," I replied. I could feel Iran— the erratic wolf that he was— recoil in disgust. Initially, I alone had found her attractive but as time went on and as I finally Mated with Yulia, the chemistry between us had evaporated.But she did not want to let go of what she thought we had. I could not wait for the doors to slide open."I heard what you did to the assistant Vice President," She said."He was being a dick, so I took his balls off," I replied with a shrug."Was that a genital play on words?" She asked with an amused raised eyebrows.I shrugged."Just return his money, Issa, he is threatening to involve the police," Andrea said."He can do whatever he likes, he will get it back when I feel like giving it back," I replied curtly. The
~YULIAThe Training hall was big and on the walls hung different sizes of stick swords and kendo sticks.The floors were padded with soft canvas and I could see faint blood stains. I heard gasps and soft exclamations from the girls in the class.I understood why. Detective Jamal or Professor Khan as he was referred to was in a form fitting training gear that showed off his toned body. He was barefooted and had a stern look on his face."Welcome, please take off your shoes and jackets and put on the necessary protective gears," He instructed and pointed to the wall where the gears were hung.Jamal had glanced at me but averted his eyes quickly. It was almost unbelievable that he was at my place last night showing me photographs of a dead werewolf. I wondered
~YULIAAll these time, I had strongly believed that Issa blamed me for my mother’s death but–Here he was in tears with a hard expression etched on his face as he revealed his deep regrets to me. I had been deeply hurt when he jerked in surprise after I had asked him the question.Yet here I was right now, my legs wrapped around his waist, my arms wrapped around his neck and my mouth locked on his lips. Our hearts began to beat as one as he held me close to him, too scared to let me go, lest I disappear too from existence..One of his hands found its way under my school uniform and squeezed my right breast and I sighed into his mouth. I had missed his touch these past few days and I could not wait to ravage him. I felt his beast call to me as I ran my hands through his thick curly long hair. They were
~ISSAI could feel the tension in her body as we drove.She was vibrating with anxiety as I pulled into the garage. The ride home had been silent for the most part and I knew it was because she was in deep thought. I had to let her know some things and I was not sure how she was processing them. I hated being this worried.I knew that enrolling her at Canis had been a bad idea but it was the only place that was suitable for her. Before Marianna had been killed, Yulia had been schooling at a college for humans. I had been against it but my late sister had wanted Yulia to experience a
~YULIAI did not even feel any iota of remorse as I watched Andrea lose her shit.I was a bit caught off guard by how fast her hand almost came to hitting me. Why were the Craven sisters so fast with violence?“She almost killed me first, it was self-defence,” I said to Andrea but I doubted if she was even listening.“So, you burnt her face in self-defence too? Is that what you are trying to tell me?” She asked in a rage-filled voice.“It was an accident, Andrea and if you want to blame someone, try the professor who started the class in the first place,” Issa said in a calm tone.“Of course, you will come to her defence, what else did I expect?” Andrea said in a s
~ISSAI had a lot of questions for her but I knew that I had to thread carefully.I had seen the scroll she was reading and I knew that she was beginning to look for answers about who she was. I knew the time would come when I would no longer be able to hide the truth from her.If Marianna was here, she would be smirking at me right now. She had always wanted to reveal Yulia’s origin but I had been against it because I knew that there were forces out there who wished her harm. A lot of people had plans… evil ones for Yulia and I needed to shield her from them.I used to believe that the less she knew about herself, the better but now that her dormant powers were manifesting, there was no point in hiding the truth any more. She was not stupid.“I am s
~YULIAI had been hiding in the library for the past thirty minutes after my fight with Leia.I was still trying to make sense of what happened as I stared hard at my hands. They were no longer glowing. I was seated at a corner where nobody would see me unless they paid close attention. Different books were open and scattered across the table I sat behind. I was deep in research or should I say trying to understand what was going on with me.I closed my hands again and grunted trying to make them light up but only a fart threatened to escape my butt, so I stopped. How did it even happen? Was it rage? Was it my wolf, Yara? Or was it Iran? Because I had felt Issa’s Lycan companion at the fringes of my mind, and I suspected that he was behind my outburst of light.I could no longer feel him anymore but I knew that it was not going to be the last time I would experience such rage. I was bonded to one of the most ruthless and deadly Lycan of the territory and it had come with some power
~ISSAI pulled up into the parking lot of Canis Academy and killed the engine. I sighed and turned to Andrea, watching her very closely.“You need to be with someone who cares about you, Andrea,” I told her. “I am no longer that person.”“This is the effect of your bond with Yulia. It means that you have no eye for other women in your life,” Andrea said. I detected a hint of sadness in her voice. All these could end if only she tried to find her own mate but she was just literarily fucking around just to piss off her distant father.“Believe me, I am still surprised by it,” I replied, which was the truth. Before Yulia, I would have bent Andrea over at the back seat and ravaged her with my cock but now that Iran had marked Yulia, the sexual attraction that I had for Andrea was gone… like it was never there in the first place.Andrea sighed and shook her head. A small sad smile played on her face. “We used to fuck each other’s brains out everywhere. The bathroom, the park, the dressin
~ISSAI needed to get to Yulia immediately. I just had to find a way to get rid of Andrea and this idiot of an assistant vice president. Mark was currently on his knees massaging Andrea’s right foot. He had the look of a defeated man and I was certain that he had learnt his lesson. I stood up from where I sat and dropped my unfinished drink on the cabinet before I went to my desk. I put in the password to access the computer before opening the dark web where all of Mark’s money was kept.I had kept it all in an offshore account. I transferred all his money back into his account. All sixty million dollars in total.“Check your account,” I said curtly.Mark hastily got up from where he knelt and frantically reached into his inner suit jacket for his phone. He heaved a sigh of relief as he saw the numbers and ran to embrace me. I flinched from his touch but I did not push him off.“Oh, thank you, thank you, I promise from now on to be a team player, you will hear no complaint from me e
~YULIAI was not expecting to be helped but then again, I was not expecting to be humiliated. My face felt hot as I struggled to breathe. “Face your opponents and focus,” Jamal’s voice roughly rang out and the sparring session continued. “That’s it?” Leia asked mockingly. I got up to my feet and I felt so much pain on my left rib. My breathing was getting easier but the rage that was boiling up in me was another issue. Yara was growling in agitation as I resumed my stance.“Atta, girl,” Leia said with a cruel smile. “Try to last longer this time,” She added arrogantly.Jamal passed us as he spoke. “You are not only connecting with your wolf, you must also trust your instinct, you must become one with the core of your wolf, that is the only way to secure victory over your opponent.”I was not going to make that mistake of taking my eyes off her again. I called to Yara to give me strength. Although I still felt the warm embrace of rage throbbing all over me. My nose was filled with
~ISSAI realized that I made a grave mistake showing Andrea that I knew what she was up to.I knew because she slammed the door shut, instead of leaving my office and stubbornly took a seat on the arranged sofa beside my small library of books.I sighed wearily as I went to the small cabinet that I installed in my office by the desk and poured myself and her a drink from a bottle of my best vodka. I did not drink much and it was just there for show. However, sometimes, I invited people over to celebrate with me any time we hit or surpassed a profit margin in the company.Most people was Deucalion.I handed her the drink and held on to mine as I took a seat beside her. Andrea looked genuinely sad as she sipped the alcohol but I had no sympathy for her.
