Hunter 18: A Moment of Serenity“I’m glad you already have an idea about us,” Harleen said, her relief evident in her smile. “Anyway, Brother Hades told us what happened to you… how are you feeling? He worried about you, and we assumed this was your first time seeing a werewolf. We were afraid you might be traumatized,” she added, her eyes filled with concern.I smiled weakly, my heart warmed by Harleen’s genuine concern. “I’m okay,” I replied, my voice a mix of relief and exhaustion. “It was quite a shock and frightening experience, but I’m managing.”My mind drifted back to the silver-eyed man, Hades.

Hunter 23: A Fateful DecisionUnlike the ache and tiredness I had felt previously, I woke up feeling refreshed and invigorated. I looked at the wall clock and realized it was already two in the afternoon, which was why my stomach was rumbling with hunger.With a concerted effort, I sat up on the bed and my body no longer protesting. As I leaned against the headboard, I sighed while my mind wandered back to the dream I had experienced. The dream, the voice that had urged me to accept my fate, felt more vivid than ever. It kept echoing in my mind and it was no longer just a dream; it was someone, with a strong power who was trying to guide me.If it wasn’t for my dream about my mother, I would have already dismissed as meaningless this kind of dream.

Hunter 25: A Gentle TouchWithout a word, Hades wrapped the towel around my body, his movements were gentle and deliberate. His eyes, however, were averted, his gaze fixed on a point in the distance. With his ears tinged with a blush of his own.He is surely acutely aware of the intimate act he is performing right now, the vulnerability of the moment.
