I know that even though I'm skeptical about his antics. Still, I had to thank him.

"Thank you for that," I uttered.

I was sitting on the bed while he was leaning against the window, looking out at the round, bright moon.

"For this, and for what happened earlier."

I was referring to the rose I was holding and what happened earlier. He didn't reply and just looked at me intently as he always does. I really couldn't help but be amazed at how his eyes could speak. Anyone can be carried away by his gaze.

"Who are those people?" he asked.

I sighed and looked at the flower.

"Bad guys," I briefly said.

I don't want to explain anymore because I think I will just waste time.

"And do they bother you often like that?"

I sensed a hint of seriousness in his tone. I glanced at him, he didn't even flinch at my stare. I shook my head lightly as an answer.

"It seems they have something else in mind for you," he whispered as if he said it only to himself.

I smirked without humor. "Don't worry. I can pro

  • Fajra Meets the Alpha   Werewolves

    Werewolf — I typed at the search bar."Fajra, you're still not done with that?" My co-worker asked me.I smiled raw and shook my head. I only used the existing computer here in our manager's office. I spent almost my entire lunch break researching the questions I needed answers to.Are werewolves real? What do werewolves do? Where did they come from? The things I read are foreign to me and I can’t seem to understand the results of my reading. Even though I understand it, it still does not meet my level of understanding.Werewolves aren't real. That's one of the hundred results that says the same. I nodded while agreeing with what was read."Right, who the hell in the world would believe that?" I whispered to myself.This issue only became a trend because of the movies that were released and mixed with some other catch for people to watch and believe. Some results are saying that werewolves came from the stories of people acting a bit different than usual, different in a way of bein

  • Fajra Meets the Alpha   Enough For Him

    "Fajra," I heard him call me with a tone of defiance.I was too focused choosing clothes from the rack and putting them in front of him. I chose a simple shirt on him slightly tilting my head looking if it fits him.”This one's cool. White shirt fits you.” I said and removed the shirt from the hanger but he grabbed my wrist to stop me."Stop," he said.I sighed heavily and pouted. He has been stopping me from shopping for clothes for him. I was able to buy him pants first, so now I'm choosing his top. "At least buy that." I slapped the shirt on his chest so he couldn't do anything but hold it.He followed me to the counter. I quickly took out money and signaled the woman not to put the clothes in the paper bag."Don't look at me like that. I'm telling you, you have to change clothes. You attract so many people with that outfit. Halloween is still far ahead.” I rolled my eyes.His lips were in a grim line. "I don't care what other people say."I sighed harshly. “Just change. I'll wait

  • Fajra Meets the Alpha   Let Go

    I was dumbfounded while looking at the scenario when we got home. From a distance, I can see how they take our stuff out of our house. I dropped the plastic bag I’m holding, which contained the stuff that we bought, and quickly ran."W-what is this?"I stammered a question to the man standing there. He didn't answer me and focused only on the paper in his hand. I turned to see another man coming out our door with the rest of our stuff."H-hey!" I screamed. "What are you doing?"I was confused and walking back and forth. Hades even passed through my eyes with the plastic I'd left earlier.He also seems to have no idea what is going on."Please don't do this." I pleaded with the man I first talked to.He looked at me without emotion and handed me the paper. I had no idea what was written on it."You need to go to the bank to settle this."My tears flowed, and I didn't know what to do. They didn't seem to listen to my plea."No, please. I have money."The bundle of money was scattered bec

  • Fajra Meets the Alpha   The Woman at the Counter

    Hades liked Fajra. Or, if we're going to put it in other words, Fajra is the one he likes. Yet he believes that the Fajra he knows and the one in front of him are the same person.It's not that I believe his story about the other world he's referring to, but if I put myself in his shoes, that's what he's implying. Even if he doesn't tell me, I'm not that dense to not realize it.He cares for me based on the way he looks at me or even his words. I could feel it because I was once like this. I once cared secretly, stared secretly, and liked someone in secret."Hades," I called him.Because he was left there at the door of the inn we went to. There are no hotels here, so we just went here."What are you doing?" I asked with no emotion.He was just standing straight outside, as if someone had stopped him from going inside. He didn't answer me, so I hissed and came back to the door to get him."What?" I hissed."Let's meet here tomorrow." He pointed to the side.My face crumpled in confusi

  • Fajra Meets the Alpha   The Promise

    We were thrown out of that place, to make a long story short. I was shivering in the cold while walking on the empty, dark street, looking for a place to stay.I muttered some words to myself a few times, and Hades looked at me every time I did that."Well, fvck it!" I stopped and couldn't stop screaming. "Could this day even get worse?"I angrily snapped that even my flaring nose was blowing cold smoke. Hades was looking at me with his deep eyes. I glared at him for a few seconds and rolled my eyes before continuing to walk.I still don't want to believe it. Unless I talk to that woman, only then will I believe again."Maybe that was his accomplice or something?" I talked to myself while walking.We were not accepted at the inn we went to, so we are currently returning to where we came from. Our steps echoed when we passed by the bridge that connects the central and rural areas where our house is located.I had passed there when I realized that the sound of Hades' footsteps following

    I don't know if he is succeeding in getting into my head because it's all making sense now. It's like I'm suddenly involved in the story that only he knows because I seem to understand everything. Little by little, the answers came together in my mind."Where are we headed?"I laughed at myself when he spoke after about an hour. Yes, we were walking in the cold for almost an hour. There is nowhere else to go but the place I know."Just trust me."He didn't answer, so I looked at him. "And please, if we ever see that woman again, don't say anything so we don't have to encounter any more problems."He kept his mouth closed, so I just sneered. We are in the middle of the forest; the longer our walk, the more difficult it becomes because the area is quite high.We can hear each other in that forest, and I'm not even bothered. We are used to me coming here, just not at this critical time."Fajra." I was surprised when he pulled me by my arm and looked around alertly. I got startled. I look

    My senses clicked, and suddenly, the image of vibrant greens and sepia colors welcomed my eyes. Oh, I have this feeling of familiarity as well as confusion every time I dream.It felt so new yet so familiar to me. Oh yeah, probably because I used to dream the same things. It's because I'm a lucid dreamer; that's what Pluto told me."Fajra," I turned to the west to see whose voice it was, but I saw no one. The next thing I knew, I started to run, looking back from time to time as if I were checking if someone was coming after me.I heard a lot of giggles from you. It echoed inside my head, along with the continuous call of my name by a voice I wasn't aware of. Until I arrived at the gates.The gates that are out of my mind's capacity to reach. The gate is made of a mixture of cloud and mist rather than metal or any other material. I was able to pass by that without any effort.The next scenario in my dream was an image of me in a wide field. I was overwhelmed by the beautiful flowers

  • Fajra Meets the Alpha   The Girl Who Cried For Help

    I have told myself many times that I’ve never really felt like I belong in this world. But I never thought of it this way.I hate that what the woman had told me struck me so badly that I felt that it was true. It's like she pointed out something that I couldn't admit to myself. Because the truth is, I really feel like the world has outcast me. It appears that the world is forcing me out and leading me to my demise, only to abandon me.But I'm not built that way. If the world makes me sick, well, I'll do everything until the world gets sick of me.I tried to brace myself. After arriving at the restaurant for my duty, I did my job. I was hoping to be fine, but no, I barely forgot my problems, especially the last words I said to Hades.He's been good to me. He didn’t do anything bad to me, but I think those are the only words that will keep him away from me. He's a good person. It’s just that his brain has some malfunctions."Fajra, someone's looking for you," my co-worker called me whi

    --Athena’s POV--"Athena! Athena! Wake up! "With a cold sweat, shaking, and a pounding heart, I woke up. I looked around to see where I was. I’m quite relieved to see the trees and hear the chirping of the birds. I might have fallen asleep here in the tree house."You’re having nightmares again?" Knight asked with a worried tone.I avoided his eyes and I sat properly. I’ve been dreaming a lot of weird things lately. It all started when my life was taken from innocence. I thought it was just a normal dream at first, but as I got older, I noticed how frequently I dreamed, not to mention how those dreams are connected, like they're a story."It’s much worse today," I whispered."How come? Did you dream of flying dragons now? " He laughed.I gawked at him. How would he react if I told him that it’s not just flying dragons but wolves that fight with swords that could kill only them? I shook my head and decided to just keep my mouth shut."We should go now. My father will look for me, "I u

"Nice to meet you, Knight."The child simply smiled."So when are you going to go home?""Mom will pick me up. I'll call her. " He said."Why? Where was she?

    In life, you have different things you want to pursue, may be material things, events, a person, or anything. The world is made to be inconsistent, and so are we.It seems that whatever we desire, it will never end, it will never finish. We always have new wants, always have new desires. There will never be contentment.You always seem to be looking for something. You always seem to be missing something. And all this time, I always believed that we are like that because it's our norm. That we are made that way with our own differences.But now, I realized that maybe, that's why we can't be satisfied: we can't see the reason and purpose of these things.I lived in vain. My whole life seems to have been dedicated to enslaving the world.I fooled people because I wanted to help others. It doesn't make sense, doesn't it? I hated my father and ended up forgiving him. Still, it does not make sense.There will always be a twist and turn with everything; there's no consistency, because there'

    That kiss intensified. From gentle kisses, it became fiery and longing. Our lips fought. I don't know if it's because we've been through so much that we're so thirsty for each other.But the only thing I know now is that I want to make him feel how much I love him. As I've said a while ago, I want to be selfish just this once. I want to love him without thinking about anything. I want to show him how much I love him without holding back.The way he held me with care was different from his aggressive kisses. I resisted his kisses. The coldness I felt earlier now has been replaced by a warmth that caresses not only my skin but also my heart.His hands roamed around my neck and down my body. Now he is slowly getting up and positioning himself in front of me. I moaned, feeling his mouth suck my neck lightly.This scene is strange, especially in light of the past events. I loved him and it hurts me so badly.He stopped and sniffled my neck, smelling whatever it was, probably the smell of s

    We stopped in the middle of the forest. We stopped at a stone house, and it was alone in the deserted forest.I silently scanned the abandoned looking house. The floor creates noise due to its fragility. At the entrance, we were greeted by a wooden door. Knight opened it up and let me come inside before he came after me."Whose house is this?" I asked.Inside is the old equipment. Everything was there, the bed, the table, the scattered and dirty utensils in the kitchen. It appears to have been abandoned."We used to stay here when we were still young and wandering around the forest." he answered.I glanced at him. "We?"He nodded and avoided my gaze. I dropped my gaze to the floor because I got what he meant. He definitely misses his friends; not only is it obvious to him, but I know how fresh it is for him.I was only with them for a while, and just hearing their story made me sick. How much more for him? For someone like him, who had kept it all inside for so long, they are the ones

  • Fajra Meets the Alpha   The Alpha’s Grief

    I can't explain the rage Knight showed seconds after Meshka was caught and killed himself in front of him.His naked body flexed in the cold night. He walked back holding his head, controlling his anger, but he couldn't contain it. He walked back and forth, continuously roaring and shouting his anger out.I covered my mouth with my hands to stop the sound of my sobbing. My eyes blur as I watch him become miserable.He had the choice in his hands. If I were in his position, I would be able to kill Meshka because of my anger. But he didn't do that. He was his friend, and for sure that's what was on his mind as well.No matter how evil Meshka was, he never wanted him to die. He wanted peace. He wanted to sort things out without bloodshed. But things didn't go his way."Fuck! Fvck! Argh!"I sobbed, seeing him that way. He punched his chest, grabbed his hair, and roared loudly until he shifted into his wolf.My eyes, although they were blurry, were still able to comprehend what was happeni

    It's so ironic. On a cold winter night, my father saw Knight in the woods, here in the same place, and he saved him. That started the curse.The moment Knight left his pack, the curse materialized. My father was sent to prison. I had to find money. Peter found him and made him our target. I met him in a bar. Something happened. I fooled him. No, I fell in love with him.And I can't believe that it's all meant to happen. I feel like I'm being played with. It's not good to feel as if your life was a joke or something. It's like you're in a show and someone is controlling your life.Imagine how frustrating it is for Knight, especially. For sure an alpha man like him would be under someone's verdict and desire. For sure it was hard for him.What he said was true. If we kept on running away, it would never end. The same things will occur consistently. Bree died, and so did Ulva. How many lives must be lost before all is at peace? One's life in exchange for everyone's life? Am I thinking ab
