Call. That woke me up.

I saw that darkness had reigned on the outside already. After the situation with Knight and I in the living room, we ended up here in his room. I awoke from a deep sleep, and my heart is still palpitating quietly.

Knight is sleeping soundly beside me. With my sleepy eyes, I reached for my phone at the bedside. I saw that it was a call from Erin. My heartbeat increased its rate. This is unusual. Erin would never call me, especially since she knows I’m out with our victim.

With a worried mind, I answered it quickly.

"Why?" I asked.

"Athena,"

Hearing her crying voice made me even more nervous. I glanced at Knight, who was still asleep. I removed his arms above my stomach, trying to be careful. I succeeded. I sat on the bed while looking for the pieces of my clothes.

"What happened? Tell me," I said, sounding so eager but still careful not to wake Knight up.

"I’m sorry to call you right now. But Milo... " She sobbed.

I palmed my face after wearing my underwear.

    I looked at myself in the full length mirror. I wore the red flowy dress and scanned myself without any emotion. Big day today.I feel sick today, honestly. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve skipped some of my meals because of too much overthinking or that I only have a tiny bit of strength left in me today.I sighed. I pursed my lips and wore my red lip stick as usual. This is for good luck. I need big luck today. I badly need one.I ignored it, seeing my phone ringing and lighting up beside me. I don’t want to take calls today. I’m having internal turmoil. I need to be on character, or else, I’ll be fvcked up and all of our plans will go to waste.This must’ve been the biggest scam I’ve done so far. And I’m afraid that if this succeeds, we’ll do more.

    We stayed in that position for a while. I enjoyed the silence, the tranquility his presence had given me. I didn’t even need words, just his gentle caress on my back and his tiny kisses on my head made me calm down.Meanwhile, I am staring at my oversized photograph that’s almost maximizing the whole single wall of the room."You’re alright now? Penny of your thoughts? "I chuckled at his tone. I remember asking him the same question the first time I saw him. Now, he’s asking me the same question with the same tone."Why is this your favorite?" I asked him, trying to avoid having a conversation about me."Just because."I chuckled. "Why not my nude photos?""Why those when I could just see you strip in front of me?"I barked a laugh. He chuckled when I laughed. My smile disappeared thinking about this plan of ours. Now that this is done, until when should I lie to him so I can stop?"Thank you. You don’t know how much of a help that is to a lot of people. " I whispered.To a lot of pe

    "So from what I’m seeing, we could possibly go into details once I visit his place. Or unless you get enough information. "I continued typing on my phone, almost not minding Peter’s lectures. It’s been a while since complicated situations happened. However, Milo is still at the hospital for healing treatment. Yes, his brain operation was successful. He didn’t need to have a transplant because of that."Are you even listening?" I heard Peter’s annoyed tone."Yeah, continue."Me:I’m afraid I’m not the best one to do that, but I’m sure I could work on it.Knight:No freakin' way.I bit my lip to stop myself from smiling. I typed my reply.Me:Let’s try it."Athena! Fvck!" Peter grunted.I blinked my eyes and focused on him. "Y-yeah,"He glared at me. "Can you focus just for this damn time? This is big. You want to go to jail or what? "I grinned and relaxed myself on the single couch. I slanted for him to see that I was all ears. I waved my hand, signing for him to continue."As I was

    I can’t get enough of her. There’s something in her that I couldn’t touch and perceive. It’s like she has some sort of magnetic force that attracts me wherever she is. What the fvck is wrong with me?"Yeah, what the fvck is wrong with you?" Lucas echoed the thoughts inside my head.I just low-key confessed to Athena that I liked her at the exhibit. Because damn, I couldn’t keep it to myself. The longer I keep it, the more it doesn’t subside. I tried to assess myself if what I was feeling for her was just for sex, but no.Just the thought of her smile that causes tiny flutters in my chest is killing me softly and slowly. The way she brushes my hair with her fingers, it’s heaven for me. I want her beside me all the time. I want her skin to mine, always. I want to keep her. I want to protect her."Hands off, " I uttered coldly to the woman who sat beside me.The woman giggled and continued to roam her hands on my chest."I said, get your fvcking hands off me!" I growled.Horror plastered

    One day, you’ll meet someone who will rob you without you knowing it. The next thing you know, you’re left with nothing. You’ve given your all, your body, your heart, your soul. I’m ashamed. I know I’m slowly falling into the pit of wickedness I dug out."What? But I thought... I couldn’t continue."Yes, baby. I’m sorry. I promise I’ll be home as soon as this appointment ends. Or I could just let my driver pick you up." Knight said on the other line.I pouted and the lift opened. Of course, there’s no one here. We have agreed to meet at his place today. I thought he was home already, but as for what he had said. He’s still in his office, dealing with work."No, it’s okay. I’m just going to wait for you here. " I smiled lightly."Alright. Laters, baby, " he mimics the movie we watched together.I giggled and rolled my eyes. "Focus on your work, Mr. Augustus!"He groaned, and I ended the call immediately. A smile didn’t leave my face while I entered his place. I went straight to the kit

    We’re all silent at the table. Knight was seated at the end of the table, with me on his right side, while Lucas was seated on the left. Dinner was served, candles well lighted, silver wares gone and replaced by Knight’s own dishes.I glared at Lucas while he was constantly glancing at me with his sulky face. We heard Knight’s heavy breathing, so our eye contact broke. I cleared my throat and composed myself.I turned to Knight. "Let’s season your steak."I was about to get the salt when Lucas stopped my hand. My mood became as salty as the salt in my hand."He hates salt."I glared at him and clenched my fist."For goodness sake, you two, stop." Knight warned us for the nth time."I’m fine, Lucas. Stop being paranoid. " He snatched the salt from my hands and seasoned his steak."Yeah? As if I’m mistaken about what happened to you a while ago?"We watched Knight. He cut his steak and ate a portion of it. He eyed Lucas like he was mocking him. Lucas just sighed heavily.I stayed silent

    "Kill him.""Look at him straight in the eye, Athena. That’s the man who deceived you. ""I have only ever loved you."I woke up gasping for breath. I opened the lamp on my bedside and checked my phone. It’s almost five in the morning. I dreamed weird. I know it’s bad, yet I can’t remember it.I tried to go back to sleep, but my body didn’t listen to me, so I just stood up to have some coffee. I spaced out the whole morning sitting on my table contemplating things. More like, trying to remember what I dreamed of.Frustration was all I got for wasting my time thinking about nonsensical things. It was just a dream, Athena! Why do you need to remember that?I prepared for my errands for today. I will be visiting the orphanage today, not that it’s necessary since Knight has already donated fully. I just want to visit them as well. And speaking of Knight, he told me he’d come with me today.My phone lit up while I was choosing my outfit for the day. I glanced at it and saw it was from Knig

    I got a good spanking of words from Erin, just enough to keep me sane. She’s right, though. I’ve kept it to myself long enough. My feelings have changed since my mother died and I became estranged from my father."I want to be honest with you, Ms. Collins. It will take years to stand this fight.""Y-years?" I uttered under my breath.The lawyer nodded at me. We met to talk about the other two lawyers that will handle my father’s case."I gulped and tried to shrug off the unending thoughts inside my head."Is it that serious? Couldn’t we just p-pay the money or what? W-why- I-I don’t-""Calm down, Ms. Collins." Mr. Admir tried to assure me with his eyes."I wish it is that easy. But your father’s case has already been passed on to the court. We need to undergo a step-by-step process before we can defend this case. We need to gather evidence, we need to make strategies. Yes. It’s this serious, Ms. Collins. "Hearing that from him made it even harder for me to think. Years? We’ll waste

    --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

    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

    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
