As I recovered, everyone was seated next to me. Their expressions suggested that they had not slept well. How long had they been waiting for me to wake up?I reached out my arm towards Mom, and she quickly grabbed hold of my palm."Rest, sweetie. You need it. I am so glad you are okay.""But what happened?"“For the time being, we had to restrain your abilities with a bloodstone." Ash spoke."Hunters frequently employ bloodstones to weaken monsters. Not that you fit the mold.""I get it. Don’t worry." I assured her."I didn’t know if it would work. But we had to do something." Ash tried to reason."It’s okay. I am fine. Thank you." "Rest for a day or two, and when you are better, we go." Mom announced. "Go where?""Back home," she said."But what about Tobias and his army?""If he brings the war to us, we won’t step back. We may have a fighting chance now. And if he doesn't, then we leave the city and live to go where your dad and I started a life together.""It’s unlikely that Tobia
Forbidden love Chapter 42: Marc
"We are going to need a car to get out of here." Mom stated the obvious to everyone at the dining table."All our phones are switched off. We can’t have anyone track them. How did we get a car?" asked Tia. "I know a friend’s number. I can use Ash’s phone to call him." Lisa suggested."I don’t have the need for a phone." "I've never needed one," declared Ash proudly."Then, I am going to walk out of here to the nearest public phone and make the call," said Lisa."I will come with you," said Tia."But you need to get some sleep if we are leaving in the morning. Besides, if we all went, it would just attract attention. I’ll be back soon."I answered with irritation, "I'm coming with you. I was certain of the person she was about to phone without a shadow of a doubt. It was intended for Chris. He seemed to be involved in her life in some manner constantly. The thought of the two of them together did not appeal to me. I was aware that I need not worry about her. Yet, I have observed Chris
Forbidden love Chapter 43: Lisa
Marc and I walked beside one another out of the house. It was the first time we had stepped out since we got here. “So you remember this guy’s number by heart, huh?” He said annoyed. “This guy? It’s Chris. And you know him.”“Yes, I remember what’s his face.” I felt a wave of jealousy in me through the mate bond. “You don’t have to be jealous, you know? He had I have been friends for a long time. It has never been anything more.” I tried to assure him.“I am not jealous.” He lied. “Can all werewolves feel the mate bonds like this? Also, you said once you could sense my arousal, is that true for all?”“No. Only the ones with alpha blood. My grandfather was an alpha. Your mother was the daughter of an alpha, so you can I can. The betas and the lower the ranking werewolves can’t feel these things.” He answered as well as he could.“Lisa, this is Chris..”“I told you not to worry about him. I trust him. And you shall too.” I tried to distract him again what questions. “All this must
Forbidden love Chapter 44: Lisa
I waited for Chris to answer the phone after hearing it ring on the other end. But with every second that passed, Marc's agitation increased. This possessive-jealous behavior was truly grating on my nerves.I heard Chris’s voice say, "Hello.""Hey, Chris. It’s me L...""Lisa? Wow. I have been going crazy looking for you. Are you okay? Are you safe? Your phone is turned off. You aren’t in your apartment. And what is it with Marc—he has been missing too? The employees are instructed not to worry because you and he are on some business trip, it would seem. I don’t believe a word of this sh*t.""Calm down, worry-boy. I am fine." I assured him. I knew that he was going to need more information. "I am with Marc. But it’s not a business trip. Let’s speak when we meet.""Where are you?" I will come right now."About that, yes." Would it be possible for you to walk a little, make sure no one is following you, and get someone else’s car? "Avoid phone calls, and avoid your car because they can
Forbidden love Chapter 45: Chris
I quickly retrieved my wallet, keys, and jacket and left my apartment. While walking aimlessly around the block for an hour, I carefully checked to see if I was being followed. I do not know who it is Lisa thinks is following me, but she's always reasonable, and if she says so, I will not doubt her words. I left my phone at home as instructed and kept an eye out for possible pursuers. When I was sure I was alone, I called a cab and got in quietly.Three times I had been to Lisa's apartment, but she did not respond. Her phone was turned off. She never picks up just like that. If it had been a business appointment, she would have told me. I have known her for years, she's not the type to press the gas pedal without thinking. And why was Marc with her? I do not like the way he looks at her. I am a man; I know that look. He's married, for God's sake. I'll be damned if he's going to do anything with Lisa.Not wanting to lose her as a friend, I never confessed my feelings to her. She never
Forbidden love Chapter 46: Veronica
After saying goodbye to Ash, we all made our way out of the forest. She hadn't changed a bit in all these years. "It's nice to have friends you can rely on." I found myself saying."That's true." Lisa confirmed.I looked at Marc, who was visibly upset that Marc was trying to help us. But that's how werewolves are. Insecure and jealous. I doubt there's much he can do about it. As long as he keeps his feelings in check, I'm not too worried. What worried me more was the plan Ash and I had hatched. I wasn't going to risk Lisa's life like that. But I didn't want these children to live a life of secrecy like I did. You can't run away from problems, misery and pain, no matter how far you run or how long you run.We hadn't waited long when Chris found us. I had met him once before, years ago, with Lisa. They were both students then. One look at him was enough for me to know that he was in love with my daughter. She, however, seemed as unaware of his feelings as she was of her own identity. So
Forbidden love Chapter 47: Marc
All of us are in the car now. The cab driver awaits our instructions. We all look at Veronica. She and Ash had been onto something for weeks so we were sure she’d know a way out. “Take us back to the city, please.” Lisa, Tia and I looked at with colors draining our faces. She couldn’t be serious. It took everything to leave that hell and now she wants us to go back. What was she thinking? “Mom. Back to the city? Are you sure?” She simply needed and looked out the window. Chris didn’t know what was happening but because of the Cab driver, he seemed hesitant in asking questions. The driver started in the direction of the city that he seemed to have left behind food good. Tia inched closer to me, holding my arm tightly. Until she saw us fighting The Five, she wasn’t really convinced that she was in real danger. Everything probably seemed like a story someone narrated to her. But that night, when the fight was real and happened in front of her, perhaps for the first time, I saw her sc
Forbidden love Chapter 48: The Return
Veronica paid the driver and we all got out of the car. Some of the older guards in the lobby seemed to recognize Veronica. With pity in their eyes, they simply stepped aside. Everyone there knew Marc. Veronica entered the building and everyone followed her. The lobby had a reception, seating, a grand piano and a small fountain. The familiarity of the place gave Marc a sinking feeling in his stomach area.The receptionist looked at everyone and began frantically dialling numbers on her phone."You bitch. How dare you show your face here?" Erica came out of our private lift. "And you, my dear husband, are going to regret leaving." She shouted at Marc. Without thinking much, she lunged at Lisa with all her might, with murderous intent. She reached out to grab Lisa by the hair, but Lisa grabbed her wrist and yanked it off."How dare you? I thought we were friends, you sad piece of life. This is how you repay me, by running off with my husband?" Obviously Tobias had told Erica everything.
