“I know how to deal with your curse.” I muttered and yes, that was clearly another lie. I just promised him not to lie but the truth is, If I didn’t give him something to hold onto for some time, he would get suspicious. Besides, I already knew better that escaping from this Pack wouldn’t be an easy task. I would have to prepare a thorough plan to escape even if that meant feeding him more lies. “Your heart is beating fast, your breaths are unsteady and the look in your eyes is not so convincing. You’re lying to me, Elle.” He peered at me deeply. I gulped down my saliva, for a split moment I had totally forgotten I was dealing with a werewolf. An Alpha one at that. But I couldn’t give up now, to survive I needed to shape my lying abilities to be better. The pain from my stomach is enough to remind me of the torture I would go through.“I swear on my life.” I avowed but he still wasn’t convinced. “Curses are like wounds and all wounds require treatments to be cured. I’ll be needing so
My eyes slowly opened to the morning rays and the sounds of birds tweeting by the window side. I was about to yawn when I suddenly realized the position I was in. My breaths ceased and my heart started thumping like it was going to escape out of my chest. Her back was facing me but strands of her red hair were all over my face. My hands were curled around her stomach while my legs were over hers. I gulped down my saliva, wondering how we had landed in this position. But deep down I loved it, just like last night, when her soft fingers touched my lips. I’ve had fun with several ladies but with Elle, it was different. My wolf was even squirming in excitement, something even Christine couldn’t make him do. And like a love struck fool, I smiled while I held onto her tighter like she was my life.I closed my eyes trying to enjoy this beautiful moment but then my phone started buzzing in my pocket. I hissed, I had to pull away from her to take the call. “Hey Chris,” I mumbled. “Hey you,” s
I couldn’t take it! Every part of me wanted to hurt them just like they did to my woman. I didn’t even know why I was claiming her as mine but it felt right. Her soft touch on my arm easily soothed my wolf and I to the core. It was divine and like that my anger vanished into thin air. Samantha quickly arranged her Package including a map, the one I overheard them talking about but I wasn’t too inclined to care. A part of me was still deeply concerned about the pain on her wrist. “Let’s go,” she beckoned softly, I glared at Eve for a while. It was my way of warning her this incident hasn’t been forgotten. When we got to the car, “Alpha Hansel,” she called and once again I hated that formal tone. “Do you have any injuries?” She asked. I smiled. “I’m a werewolf, remember?” She nodded slightly and handed me my shirt but I was still drenched in blood. So I cleaned my body with it and took another shirt from my backpack. When I was done, she was waiting inside already. “Thank you.”
My eyes opened to the familiar ceilings of my old room. My old room? This was Jeff’s Pack House! I jolted awake, sitting up restlessly but then I felt a spark from someone holding my left palm tightly but in a gentle manner. “Alpha Hansel,” I whispered, staring into those gray eyes full of so much emotion. “You’re finally awake,” he mumbled with a light sigh following suit, while I stared at my palm that was in between his. “What happened?” I asked, trying to recall how I got here. He cleared his throat. “You fell,” he started and immediately, I recalled how I fell through that thorny hole that clawed me deep as I slid to the ground. And then there was the moonstone and Alpha Hansel yelling my name. “The moonstone!” I exclaimed weakly. “I couldn’t get it.” He wriggled his head and guilt haunt me. “You were dying, Elle. I had to choose one.” He paused.“How—“ my voice trailed off. “How did you do it? It’s not possible to save someone in that forest,”He hesitated for a while and
“Alpha Hansel!” Jeff called as he rushed to approach me beside my car. “I almost forgot to give you this,” he said with a smile as he handed me a small brown wooden parcel. As I opened it, my eyes exclaimed in awe. “The moonstone,” I mumbled in oblivion while I glanced at Elle who was at the other side. She was just as surprised too but she chose to say nothing regardless. “Why are you giving me this?” “After you told me about what you were looking for in Moonfrost forest, I realized I had one. I got it long ago from a shop mainly because of its aesthetics but looking at it now, you seem to have a more important use for it. So why not,” he explained. “Jeff, this is too precious. I can’t take it.” I tried handing it back to him but he refused vehemently. “I want you to have it, Alpha Hansel.” “Obviously you’re not giving this out just for free, what’s the catch?” “Let‘a just say I want you to owe me a favour. Maybe one day, I’ll need your help.” I heaved a ligh sigh. Although I
“You belong to Christine, and I don’t want to be the one to ruin your relationship.” My teeth gritted as those words replayed over and over till I punched my mirror. It cracked but the pain in my chest only worsened. For the first time in my life, I was rejected by a woman but I couldn’t understand why it hurt my wolf and I this much. She was right though but then it got me thinking. Did I really belong to Christine? Whenever I was with Elle, I felt complete but Chris was just all lust. I exhaled deeply and then packed my hair into a messy bun while my door opened for Simon. He paused in amusement as he noticed my mirror and then he sat on the couch at the corner of my room, eating his chips like it was nothing. “Someone woke up with a beautiful mood today,” he remarked, I hissed. “Wanna talk about it?” “No.” I grunted. “Care for some chips?” He offered and I glared. “Hey you don't have to transfer your aggression to my innocent babies,” he teased and I sighed again. “Gosh I f
As I sauntered into the shop, the same one Elle had taken me too days back, everyone diverted their attention to me. The smell of tension and fear easily reeked off them and that was exactly what I wanted. I still vividly recall incidents that happened the last time I came here like it was yesterday. And I still wanted to punish them more but maybe tonight, they could make up for their actions. “Well well well, to what do we owe the presence of the great Alpha Hansel,” Eve muttered as I reached the counter and I scoffed. “Certainly, you’re not here to take revenge over the last incident right?” “I might, depending on if you satisfy me or not.” I retorted and she donned a sinister smile. “If we fail to satisfy you?” “Then you and everyone present here should consider this the last breaths you all will take here.” I smiled back in the same manner and immediately, some of the customers dashed out of the building. “You’re alone, Alpha Hansel, my shop is not that easy to be bullied.”
"It's official, I hate this party." I whispered as the twin doors opened, revealing the beautiful ball room filled with men dressed in tuxedos and their ladies in dazzling evening gowns, sadness filled me to the core.Simon hit me gently by my side but it was more like a warning."It's your friend's wedding, the least you can do is wear a smile, Hansel." He chorused quietly, wearing a bright smile like he was seeing fireworks for the first time. "Eyes are on you, you know." He said as we both ushered ourselves in. The orchestra toned down their classic music as if they were acknowledging my presence. Others stared at us, some of them had even begun gossiping. But most of them had one look in common, fear."Isn't that the Alpha of White Rose Pack?" A lady hushed her friend as we walked past them to the center of the room where a couple was."Oh my gosh, it's Alpha Hansel, he really came!" Another whispered."He isn't going to steer trouble here, is he?""But then, he's dangerously hotte
