They prepared for their journey to the land where Grazziena was actually born. According to Lumaro, whom Grazziena was able to reach through mind linking, they will take two connecting flights before they could reach Mt. Reveree.
After long hours of travel, finally, Draeko and Grazziena landed in the airport, which is the Capital covering the territory of Mt. Reveree.
“Sweetheart, we are here finally,” Draeko stood up and took their hand-carry bags on top of the airplane luggage compartment. She also stood up and got one small bag from Draeko aside from her shoulder bag.
“I could hear, Lumaro in my mind, Sweetheart. He said they are waiting at the arrival area; he, Leslie, and their little boy,” Grazziena relayed to Draeko smilingly. She is actually excited. It has been several years before she is going to see Leslie again and at the same time, she is curious to see the place where her parents were once Alpha and Luna and where she was born.
IGrazziena trembled all of a sudden. The wind, yes the wind! It whispers something, filling her mind with such a vision, a scenario where she saw herself still an infant, crying beside her mother, her dead mother.“Sweetheart? Something wrong?” Draeko noticed the sudden change of color of Grazziena’s face. She became pale as if all her blood left her skin and he felt the shaking of her hand when he held it.Grazziena looked at Draeko and shook her head. She does not want him to be bothered. “Nothing Sweety, I just felt the wind, so cold in my skin, that cause me to chill.”With that, Draeko took off his jacket and put it on her shoulders.“Thank you, Sweety,” she said gently and smiled at him.While they were in that kind of sweet momentum, they heard a vibrant voice coming from the Pack House’s main door.“Welcome Grazziena and Draeko to our humble land,” the
I“From whose voice was that?” Grazziena exclaimed to the surprise of everyone around. Fears were evident in her expression.Draeko automatically held her hand and felt that it was trembling. “What’s wrong, Sweety?”Even Alpha Roilo, Leslie, and Lumaro approached her, all with worries painted on their faces.“Is there something wrong, Grazziena?” Lumaro asked while giving his father, Alpha Roilo a glance.Grazziena shook her head, “I am not sure. It might be a mere hallucination or whatever. I heard an echoing voice when the wind blew on my face.”Everybody fell silent as they heard what Grazziena had just said except Draeko who furrowed his forehead and asked. “Maybe, Sweety let us eat, and then if it happens again, it means it was not because of hunger but there is something else out there that might want to harm you.”“Yes, yes, let us eat now.
IDraeko heard the scream of his wife inside the shower room. He frantically ran towards its door and was able to relax upon finding it unlocked. He opened it drastically and there he saw Grazziena lying on the wet floor of the shower, with blood gushing through her head. He cursed loudly as he saw her.“Sweety,” he called her name while scooping her in his arms. He laid her body on the bed and checked her bleeding head.“God, Sweety, hold on, I will call Lumaro,” he was frantic as he saw the big cut on Grazziena’s forehead, which probably bumped on the floor when she fell down.He ran out of their room and when he saw a guard, he requested to find their Alpha and Luna and tell them to come to the guest room urgently because of an emergency situation.“Ayie, Sir, I will. Please stay calm, whatever it is. I will run now and find them,” the guard said as he sprinted to find Lumaro and Leslie.Draeko retu
ILumaro and Grazziena looked at each other and almost simultaneously looked at Draeko. They were thinking the same thing."Draeko, the antidote for any curse that the witch would do to Grazziena is pure and sincere love. It was stated by Grazziena's mother, Luna Cressia before she held her last breath."Then what will I do?" Confused Draeko asked.“Nothing, Sweety. You just have to stay still and let Thutaara looked into your heart and that’s it.” Grazziena said while looking at Draeko lovingly.Still confused, Draeko looked at Lumaro.“That’s true Draeko. You already reversed the first curse that she gave to Grazziena, any other further course will just bounce back and will never have an effect anymore on Grazziena,” Lumaro said confirming what Grazziena have said.“If that is the case, then there is nothing to worry about, Sweety. I will be your forever antidote. Who would think that
IThe next day, Luna Leslie and Alpha Lumaro, brought Grazziena and Draeko in their most sacred waterfalls. It is in the most secluded part of Mt. Reveree Forest.“Grazziena and Draeko, these waterfalls are miraculous. Even a barren she-wolf bore a child when she swims here for twelve consecutive nights.” Alpha Lumaro said when they reached the waterfalls.“Wow, really? Hmm, I don’t we need this waterfall's help at this moment, right Sweety?” Draeko said grinning at Grazziena. He suddenly remembered how naughty she was last night.Grazziena smiled sheepishly as she nodded. “Of course, I am not yet barren.”Alpha Lumaro and Luna Cressia including Draeko, laughed heartily with Grazziena’s reply.They were in laughter and having fun when the cold wind blew so heavily and once again Grazziena heard a voice that whispered in her ears. This time the words are clearer.“My cursed she-wolf
I“Isn’t that too much Thutaara?” Is that how evil you are now? You have taken two lives already and wasted so many years of Grazziena’s life not seeing her parents, whom you killed, just because you were not chosen by Alpha Gregor. Is that how desperate kind of a woman you are?” Lumaro asked again, with a bit of disgust in his tone. It is time to let this Thutaara knew that she cannot just do whatever she wanted.“It is none of your fucking business, Lumaro; you are not part of my story and anger, so better be silent or I will include your family.” Thutaara’s loud voice threatened Lumaro but the latter did not show any fear from her.“If all the werewolves in this place will unite to kill you, we can do it anytime, Thutaara. One growl from me and every werewolf will be here; all of them for long already wanted you dead!” Lumaro retorted with a howl to the witch.“You did not know what you
IThe wind embraced the bodies of Draeko and Grazziena and thereafter it slowly faded.Draeko and Grazziena looked at each other. “Did you feel that, Sweetheart?” Grazziena asked with astonishment.Draeko nodded and whispered to her right ear, “Yes, I did, Sweety. Let us relax, Thutaara did nothing to hurt us and I really hope, she won’t anymore.”“We will be praying for that, Sweety.” She gave him a glance and then smiled with a bit of relief flashed through her beautiful face.“We will be wishing the same to our Moon Goddess, Draeko and Grazziena and we will hope that Thutaara finds light in her dark spirit, Lumaro, who heard them, stated with a sense of positive expectation.“Guys, the sun is setting already, we better get going back to the Pack House. We can never tell, we might eit
IThe owner of the coffee shop grinned mysteriously as he read the note of their Cafe's beautiful customer a while ago.The offer is in his hand. What would he do? The cafe owner the next day waited for the pretty customer to come again, but he waited in vain. So, before the night falls, he prepared his heart shape chocolate, cheesecake, and frappuccino."Guys, I will just go somewhere. Take care of our cafe," he said to his staff, who all nodded smiling."Yes, boss. Don't worry and enjoy," his appointed cafe supervisor, said with a tease.He walked straight to Belladie's apartment and knocked on the door of Apartment number eight.He then heard sounds of steps walking slowly to the door. When the door opened, he was mesmerized by the beauty in front of him."You indeed came," she said softly but not surprise at all."Yes, I am here, and here are your favorites," the man smiled."Thank you. But before I let you enter my
I SEVENTEEN YEARS AFTER: “Grazzie Ella have you seen your brother, Drazzie Drae?”Draeko asked his daughter who was in their mansion’s living room, reading an English pocketbook. Grazzie became an avid fan of some famous writers whose genres are fantasy and paranormal, especially those werewolves, vampire, and dragon stories. Grazzie removed her brownish eyes from her book and looked at her father. “Dad, as usual, Drazzie is on our beach in Matabungkay, having his diving and surfing activities. Did he not tell you yesterday? He left at around five in the afternoon.” “Oh, I remember he told me that he is going out of town. Alright. Would you want to come with us? Your Mom and I will be visiting one of our friend’s hotels; the TY’s hotel in the city.” “Oh, why Dad?” “We will discuss a possible business partnership.” “Okay. I will come. Anyway, I am getting bored in here.” “Good.” Draeko smiled
IDraeko and Grazziena visited one of the beach resorts that they owned. Actually, it was one of those many inheritances of Draeko from his deceased parents. They were walking down the beach savoring the fresh air and letting the heat of the sun's rays overwhelm their whole senses.Grazziena walked slowly as her belly is quite so big and heavy. She is in her nine-month pregnancy. Draeko’s arm has been wrapped around her shoulders to assist her while walking. They then stopped walking and gazed into the vastness of the ocean. They felt so contented. They could not ask for more.“Are they so heavy now, Sweety?” Draeko asked while caressing her belly.“Sort of. They are getting heavier each day that I am nearing to my date of giving birth to them.” She looked up at him and smiled. She then leaned her head on his shoulders. She felt in complete peace whenever she is with him.“They will be o
I“What are these, my Alpha husband?” Luna Leslie asked when Alpha Lumaro gave her two boxes. When she opened the first big box, she was surprised to see inside a beautiful sapphire blue, below the knee, sexy dress for her and then the other box, which was obviously a shoebox, containing a cute pair of stiletto shoes.“You like them, my Luna?” Alpha Lumaro asked smilingly. He wanted to surprise her, so he hoped that his effort in buying the dress and shoes will not be put to waste.“Of course, my love. I like them both. Hmm, “Where are we going my Alpha husband? Where am I going to use this dress and shoes?” With a wide smile, she asked him again.“You will know. Prepare now and get dressed. I will prepare too. We should not be late,” Alpha Lumaro said grinning at her. It seemed like he was hiding something from her.Although puzzled, Luna Leslie nodded and abided happily. The dres
IThaara's tears spilled out from her eyes like rivulets. She felt like dreaming, but she knew in her heart that everything is real. She looked at the man beside her whose eyes were focused on her, shining like a star in the dark night."Gabby, did I hear you right? You want me, forever?" she said, murmuring.Gabby Closh nodded with such a lively smile wrapping his handsome face. "I do. I want you to be in my life forever, Thaara."Thaara's eyes, although with tears glinted with such light of hope. They glistened like diamonds. "Gabby, who am I, not to want a man like you in my life, forever too? I am no one and I can't deny that we feel the same. I want you in my life too, forever, Mr. Gabby Closh.""Thaara, you made me the happiest man alive now. We have met just for a few days, but I know what I feel for you. I love you, Thaara," Gabby Closh said and with gentleness, he claimed her lips and they kissed, like t
I When Gabby Closh woke up the next day, the aromatic scent of brewed coffee filled his nostrils. He slowly climbed down the bed when he did not notice Thaara’s presence beside him. Guessing that most probably she is in the kitchen, he freshened up himself and walked towards the apartment’s kitchen. His guess was right. Thaara was in the kitchen preparing breakfast for them while humming softly a love song. She seemed so happy. Gabby smiled as he approached her. From her back, Gabby’s arms encircled her waist and he kissed her nape that tickled her and screamed in surprise but with laughter. “You surprised me. I thought you were still asleep,” she muttered with that captivating smile lined in her lips. “I woke up without you beside me, but I smelled the aromatic scent of brewed coffee, so I knew then where I am going to find you,” he said while looking at her lovingly. Gabby Closh could not understand bu
IDraeko and Grazziena were both shocked when they heard what the Doctor had said.“Goodness, Doctor, so we will be having two kids at once?” Draeko asked with eyes as wide as the full moon while Grazziena was still in shock.The Doctor smiled widely and nodded. “Yes, Mr. And Mrs. Villadela.”Draeko could not hide his excitement as he hugged his wife so tight and gave her rain of kisses on her face and lips in front of the OB-Gyne, who could not stop smiling.Grazziena suddenly looked at her husband with a mixture of emotions flashing through her eyes. “Draeko, I am getting afraid. What if my body is not good enough to carry and make them live both?”“Don’t say that Sweety. You are strong and healthy and I will always be here to support you in you and our babies' every need.” Draeko kissed her head to pacify her and looked at the Ob Gyne, seeking for help to explain everythi
I Grazziena did not know but every time she looks at Draeko she got irritated and Draeko noticed it. “Sweet, you seemed to be always getting irritated with me. Did I do something wrong?” he asked with a worried expression. He does not want Grazziena to get angry especially that she is in her early stage of pregnancy. He does not want her to be stressed. Grazziena frowned when he heard what he said. “Nothing. I don’t know. I just easily got irritated whenever I see your face,” she said while looking at him, still with a frown. Draeko’s forehead furrowed while looking at her wife then suddenly burst into laughter after realizing what is happening. “Sweety, I am sure, our child will gonna look exactly like me,” he said grinning at her. She became even more irritated. “No way, she will look like me.”

I Draeko took a small box inside the gift bag. He was curious why suddenly his wife prepared a surprise like this. Something unusual. He almost tore the small cartoon white box because of his urgent act. He then got what was inside. At first, he furrowed while looking at the two pink pregnancy testers but when he already read the blood test result, his eyes suddenly widened while looking at what was written on the sheet of paper. He then looked at Grazziena with dazzling eyes. "Sweetheart, is this true?" His eyes were wide with excitement. Grazziena nodded. "Yes, Sweety, we are having a baby." Without saying anything, Draeko hugged Grazziena so tightly. His eyes were misty. "You need to be more careful now Sweety, no overworking, please," he said tenderly while kissing her head, repeatedly. "By the way, Sweety, I also saw Mariella in the clinic. She seemed pregnant too." "Ow, that was why the urgent wedding," Draeko sai
