~YULIA

‘Can’t wait to see you tonight.’ Leia’s text read and I groaned wearily.

I just could not catch a break with her. I exited my message app to see what class I was having next. I decided against it and texted Issa instead.

‘You were right, they don’t like you.’ I texted.

I looked up from my phone and stared at the ceiling, wondering how long it was going to take Issa to respond. And as if on cue, my phone buzzed.

‘Did they suspect anything?’ He texted back.

I smiled at the fact that I was truly important to him to have him answer this fast. I tried not to draw attention to myself as I slowly walked down the hall with no destination in mind.

Then I looked back at my phone and finally made sense of his words without putting my feelings for him forward. ‘No, we’re good, and I met the chancellor.’

‘Albus, that old fool.’ He replied.

‘Why do you have a problem with everyone?’ It baffled me how he was always at odds with almost everyone that I had come across lately.

    ~YULIA“Issa, how nice of you to grace us with your presence,” A middle-aged, yet very attractive woman who possessed dirty blonde hair that was neatly styled– said as she approached us.“Hesta, this is Yulia,” Issa said as he took my waist possessively. Hesta was dressed in a dark pencil skirt that clung to her waist and legs as if it was a second skin. She wore a silk cream blouse that she tucked neatly into the skirt. She had on Chanel red bottom heels. She looked simple yet fabulous. And I knew at first glance that she was no ordinary woman. She was a witch.“Hello,” I said politely.“My oh my, she is a pretty one,” Hesta said as she washed her eyes over my body as if I was a merchandize. “You really know how to pick your women.” A mischievous smile played on her face and Issa had to clear his throat. “She is my niece, control your thoughts, Hesta.” “Please, Issa, you may be able to fool a lot of people but you can not fool me, the way you described her is how a lover would d

    ~YULIA"Hey. . ." A stranger called and it made my wolf dance with excitement. I dropped my glass of tequila and looked up, only to be met with eyes so green they made my wolf stir with desire."Hey." A small smile played on my lips. His smile grew wider when he saw that I had not chased him away. He helped himself unto the next seat and waved at the bartender. "I'd like a glass of what she's having and more for her," he instructed. There was something about the way he spoke that messed with my thought process. I downed my glass of tequila to hide the hunger slowly growing on my face. "Having a bad day?" He asked as he turned to stare at me again. I swallowed hard at the question as I thought of my mother's funeral which I had literally escaped from and somehow ended up here. "You have no idea," I whispered and watched as the bartender poured me some more. "That makes two of us," he announced and downed his glass of tequila in the same way that I had done. "Best for us to enjo

    ~YULIA"Who are you?" He smirked as he tucked my stray hair behind my ear. "I am yours. . ." I swallowed hard as I felt my wolf stir at his choice of words. Heat scattered from my stomach to the rest of my body and I knew that the rate at which I was burning was becoming dangerous. "So why are you hesitating? Why are you holding back when you can just give in to me?" He whispered as he slowly started leaning closer to me. The pounding of my heart grew even louder and I was almost deafened from the sounds but I stopped him so that I could speak first. "The only way that you can be mine is if you're my mate," I muttered. "I don't feel the mate bond." He smiled. "You'll feel it soon." With that, he crashed his lips against mine and I froze at the sudden contact. I would have pushed him away had it felt disgusting and irritating. Yet I did not because I was shocked by the fact that it was nothing of what I thought it would be. The music seemed to get even slower as if he had comm

  • FATED TO MY UNCLE   3. THE KIDNAPPERS

    ~YULIAMy heart was hammering hard as I ran out the exit door. It took a lot of time to get my breathing to be even. It did not help that I was still running even after leaving the club. Street lamps were my only form of light since the crescent moon was not bright enough. I could have stopped in front of the club to wait for a cab but I was too worried that the mysterious gentleman would follow me outside and easily find me. It was a miracle that I had escaped him despite feeling all these emotions. And I was sure that if he somehow showed up before me again, then there would be no way that I could resist him. "Damn, no one told me that older men were this delicious," I muttered to myself.My phone buzzed again and this time, I stopped to pick up. After all, I felt assured that the mysterious man could no longer find me again. I had given the club enough distance that I could no longer see it. "Mr Rogers," I began the moment I picked up the call."Where are you, child? You have

    ~YULIAI dragged myself out of bed. "Ah, my head. . ." I cried as I massaged my temples. It was banging from all the alcohol that I had taken.Last night had been crazy. Everything about it was wrong and I was still trying to wrap my head around it. From the mysterious man to the crimson eyes in the dark, to the men who chased me and Mr Rogers who appeared with a gun shooting them. Nothing made sense to me anymore. I entered the shower and allowed the water to wash away all of my doubts. As if that was possible. I eventually stepped out of the bathroom, cleaned myself dry before throwing on some clean clothes. I chose a big t-shirt and a pair of shorts. I did not even bother to dry my dark hair before hurrying out of my room for breakfast. I heard voices even before I got to the kitchen. One of them belonged to Mr Rogers while the other belonged to Madelaine, our house keeper. I entered the kitchen and dragged a seat whip glaring daggers at Mr Rogers. I had dozens of questions f

    ~YULIAMy wolf came alive as I took in every aspect of his features. It was the same dark clothes. The same dark hair. The same dangerous and mysterious aura from last night. Worst, his green eyes seemed to bore into my soul as he approached us. My wolf began to dance with excitement as I remembered my escapades with him. The way his fingers assaulted my softness. The way his lips almost transported me to another realm. What was this man doing here? How did he know that this was were I lived?Was he a stalk— I gasped. "I knew you would be shocked by his existence but isn't this reaction too much?" Lana asked."Girl! He's the same guy I met at the club yesterday. He followed me!" I exclaimed in disbelief. That was when the beautiful stranger reached us and smiled. "I didn't expect to meet you here," he whispered and his voice affected my wolf.But today, I refused to fall under his spell. He could not make me do anything stupid with that charming face of his. "Yeah right, you exp

    ~ISSA"This is Lycan Issa, Mariana's stepbrother— your uncle. . ."My heart sank to the deepest part of my core as I realised who this beautiful yet rebellious woman was. I felt my beast begin to stir with protest. I had not seen this coming. I had not expected the events to turn on me this way. How could she be the same child I was supposed to look after? I was expecting to see a little child, not a full-grown woman! I blinked multiple times as I stared at Yulia. Her stormy gray eyes contorted and she looked away immediately, running into her friend's arms, perhaps hoping that the poor girl could help her disappear. I thought of last night and my wolf jumped. How could the woman I had kissed so passionately be my niece?What sort of a sick game was this? Memories of the way I touched her danced in my mind. Memories of all the obscene things I had imagined I would do to her when I finally found her replayed in my head. These things were not even healthy. Yet, she turned out to

    ~YULIA"What are my choices?" I hated it. I hated this moment. I hated the world. I hated fated for playing this sick game on me. My wold danced restlessly in mind and it was taking a lot from me just sitting here in the same room with him and pretended everything was fine. In reality, I wanted to scream. I wanted to roar. I wanted to cry, but I could not do any of those things. I could only hold myself together until this meeting was over and hope that I come out triumphant. Issa turned his green eyes to him. "You can either agree to come with me and I'll give you all the protection you need, pending the time it will take until I find all the people after you. . ." He trailed. "Then you can come back home." I sat up instantly as I shot him wide eyes. "How long is it going to take until you find them?" My heart began to race as I waited for an answer. This arrangement was not so bad. If it was something that would take just one or two months, then I could swallow my pride and ac

    ~YULIAI just called the head of the Academy a dick. And he thought it was funny. Albus looked at Davina with a humorous twinkle in his eyes and winked.“Well, she’s got a little fire in her, that’s for sure,” he said with a chuckle.“I didn't mean it,” I said in a small embarrassed tone.“Of course you did,” Albus said boisterously. I was kind of shocked that he did not get offended. “Let us have a seat, shall we?” He said and snapped his hand. Some of the books closed shut and floated to their respective shelves. The chairs and tables arranged themselves. Some of the men and women exited the room to continue their reading elsewhere while Davina and Albus remained.“Who are those people?” I asked, recalling that I had seen them at Issa’s Announcement.“Members of the board,” Albus shrugged as sat down across from me. Davina remained standing by his side with her arms crossed. I could see the tension in her shoulders.“Do you know why we called you here?” Albus asked as he twirled

    ~ISSAMy mind was heavily on how Yulia was doing as I entered the premises of Calion Holdings. There was so much work to be done, new updates to be installed on the company archives and new codes to write in order to strengthen the online security of the company assets.Hackers were already devising newer and slicker codes– ways of getting access to hidden information and I needed to be ten steps ahead. I was deep into working when my office door opened abruptly. The interim chief executive officer of Calion Holdings stood with her legs apart and her arms crossed. She was in a maroon power suit with a knee length skirt and matching stiletto heels.Iris Craven. As I glanced at her, I instantly realized that she came with a problem.“I am guessing your presence here has nothing to do with work,” I said and closed my laptop. Unlike Andrea and Leia, Iris was not someone to be dismissed. She was a very important part of Calion Holdings and the one closest to Deucalion. She was the firs

    ~YULIA“Yulia, we will be late for the next class,” Ashley said. I finally looked up from my phone and stared at her as we walked out of the class. “I have to see the Dean.” “It’s because of Leia, is it not?” She raised her brows at me with worry.. “Yeah,” I lied. Her expression turned grim. “It is alright, I am not getting expelled or anything.”Her face brightened up after that. “Oh, I was worried there for a while.” She sighed in relief.. “See you later.” I smiled at her before she turned and dashed to her next class. I blew out a tension-filled breath, adjusted my ash blazer and turned to the direction of the Dean’s office.I had barely made it two steps away when two very tall girls appeared out of the blue and blocked my path with their bodies. I frowned and was about to ask them to step out of the way politely when I looked up and the words died in my mouth. It was Leia’s minions. The blonde twins and they glared at me quietly as if I had stolen their boyfriends.“Do not t

I had to wait for Dean Davina to call me first.“Do not appear too eager or they will definitely suspect that something is up,” Issa said as he focused on the road.“But why should they be suspicious? Aren’t they the ones that want me to join them?” I asked.“You must understand that the Canis board is a very distrustful bunch, so even if they extend a hand of invitation, they are still very watchful and doubtful, even amongst themselves,” Issa replied.“What should I look forward to?” I asked as my anxiety began to set in.“Lots of questions about me and Marianna,” he said. “They will also ask about you and how you grew up, they could also try to turn you against me,” he said.“They hate you that much?” I asked in disbelief.“More than you can ever imagine,” Issa replied.“But you have to keep our Mated status a secret, they will not let you in if they know about that,” he added.“I think Andrea knows,” I said to him with

    ~ISSAI stayed awake all night as I remembered the past. I occasionally glanced at Yulia as she slept. With what she was going to do tomorrow, she needed all the rest she could get.I still could not believe that I had agreed to let her go behind the enemy lines, but there was no other way to get the answers we needed. “You are going to regret refusing us Issa, just you wait,” Davina’s voice echoed in my head as I flashed back to when we were young, before she had been appointed the position of the Dean of Canis Academy.She had been so angry when I had coldly rebuffed her when she told me that the school board wanted me to join its rank after graduation. It had been a long time ago.Deucalion had joined without hesitation. It was there that he had found his mate, and it was the reason why his daughter Leia could never be expelled whenever she broke the rules and regulations of the school.Then the war started. Humans, werewolves and witches alike had been caught in the crossfire. A

    ~YULIAHearing the Lycan that I was mated to telling me that he saved my life when I was a baby had to be one of the most unexpected things to hear. The sound of chattering and spoons clinking on coffee mugs were drowned out by the panic that went through me.I heard echoes of my name as I went lost in thought.“Yulia!” Issa’s concerned voice snapped me out of my trance.“You are not taking this news well,” He said to me.I abruptly stood up and the chair scraped on the floor, almost toppling over.“I need some air,” I said and headed for the exit. The people in the café suddenly felt too much and I was feeling quite a bit suffocated.Issa followed me outside but Jamal remained sitting, drinking his free coffee.Once outside, I leaned forward, putting my hands on my knees as I breathed in and out. I was shaking with anxiety. I did not know if I had the ability to hear any more of my unknown origin.“We can call it a night if you want,” Issa offered, his voice filled with concern.“No

They were getting bolder with this act and it was time to go on the offensive.“Dear gods,” Whispered, Yulia with a look of terror as she looked up at the large oak tree where the human had been grotesquely nailed. Blue Lake Public Park was filled with forensic analysts who took pictures of the signs drawn around the tree and the blood splattered on the branches.“She should not be seeing this, Frostwood,” Jamal whispered to me.“I can hear you, werewolves have super hearing abilities, Detective,” Yulia said, unable to take her eyes off the corpse nailed to the tree.“Fine, you should not be here, this is not your scene,” Jamal said. He turned to me. “Stop exposing your niece to things like this.”I was tired of hiding the fact that I was already mated to Yulia but I was not sure I trusted Jamal just yet. He currently answered to no one and that worried me.“I can n
