2021-07-30 21:00:35“What is it?” Caspian jumped on his bed as Elora slipped under the covers in a hurry. Caspian sat up and turned on the lamp on the bedside table.
“El? What happened to you?” asked Caspian as he pulled the blanket away.
Elora curled up like a frightened little girl, and before long, her face turned red. Partly because she embarrassed to show her timid side and because she saw Caspian wearing nothing under the covers.
Caspian ignored Elora’s glaring eyes looking at his lower body. He inched closer and grabbed Elora’s chin so that her gaze drifted to Caspian’s face.
“What is it? Why did you suddenly come in like you’ve seen a demon? Are you having nightmares again?”
“Aa—I,” Elora stammered, “it looks like someone came into my room.”
Without asking any further questions, Caspian immediately got up from the bed, put on the cloth pants draped at the end of hi

“I love you.”Elora stared at the screen in front of her. Earphones were in her ears, and a bowl of salad was in Elora’s lap. She had just stopped shoveling salad into her mouth when the words sounded and her conversation with Javier replayed in her head. Elora glanced across at Caspian, who was busy chatting with the flight attendant. Elora didn’t really hear their conversation. She only caught words like ‘coffee’, ‘smoking’, and ‘my lover’. It seemed they were talking about Elora.Elora went back to watching the romantic movie that was showing on the big screen in front of her. Not long after, someone removed the earphone from one of Elora’s ears, then Caspian’s face appeared in front of her, blocking Elora’s view from the screen. Caspian smiled. The kind of smile that could make Elora hold her breath and her heart skip a beat.“You look so serious,” said Caspian, and he

Maribeth served two cups of tea on the table, in front of Elora and Caspian, who were now sitting on the dull yellow sofa. Almost nothing has changed from this place, apart from the wallpaper that looks like it’s just been replaced, ivory yellow with tiny colorful flowers. Maribeth, the owner of this orphanage, has a taste for everything that contains flowers. Elora still remembered her room upstairs, where the bed was always covered with begonia-patterned sheets.Maribeth smiled and looked at Elora and Caspian. “I haven’t seen you in a long time. You said you’d send word after you got out of here.”Elora looked down, staring at her wrinkled blouse. She was gathering courage and reason, but none of them came to the surface. There is only guilt. Guilty that for years, Elora judged this place not to accept her. Her views when she was a child and as an adult turned out to be different.As soon as she saw Maribeth, with the wrinkles on

“What are you thinking about?” Caspian’s voice pulled Elora out of her reverie.Elora pulled the cigarette out of her mouth and looked up when Caspian appeared on the balcony. He was only wearing a dark blue bathrobe, just like the current night sky. Elora sat on the balcony smoking a cigarette and enjoying the nighttime parade of lights in Auckland as Caspian showered. Without Elora knowing, she was lost in the memories of her past.There were so many things she wasted all this time. It was possible that if she had not been so skeptical of the people at the orphanage, Elora could have lived a different life. It wasn’t that Elora regretted her job and her current state. However, Elora’s soul would have been better if she realized the love that people gave her.“That book,” said Elora. Elora was reluctant to share her guilt towards Maribeth with Caspian, but Elora wasn’t completely lying when she said she was thinki

Elora couldn’t sleep all night. She thought about Caspian’s whereabouts, who had left without his cell phone. Elora hated herself for asking Caspian such a stupid thing. Elora trembled with fear at the thought of Caspian no longer wanting to be with her and leaving Elora ... leaving her alone as before. Loneliness became a scary thing for Elora now.After sinking into despair, Elora roamed the manor suite, which was twenty times as big as her apartment while drinking half a bottle of whiskey she had taken from the minibar. Elora was unconscious after that, and it allowed her to sleep without dreaming bad things. Elora had only fallen asleep when someone shook her body gently.“El, get ready. We’ll be leaving soon.” Caspian’s voice whispered softly in Elora’s ear. Elora groaned and rolled over, realizing too late that she had fallen asleep on the sofa. Elora almost fell to the carpeted floor, but Caspian deftly caught her.

“Your house?” repeated Caspian. He sounded incredulous. “Are you sure?”Elora was very sure. The memory hit her like a storm that suddenly came after the silence. Rumbling and shattering Elora’s mind. It was almost terrible because Elora was remembering part of her past just by coming here and seeing this house. Elora stepped hesitantly, climbing the stairs one by one until she came to a large terrace.“This is my house… I live with my father and my mother, and my brothers.” Elora said it was almost beyond her consciousness. “None of the pack members’ lives with us, because—” Elora put her hand on the closed door. “We are too dangerous.”Almost without a push, the door opened. There was only darkness in it that could be seen through the gap in the door. “People came and went, reporting the condition of the pack members to my father. But they never stayed….” El

Elora sat straight up on Caspian’s lap.“What did you say?” she hissed.Caspian let out a short laugh and then smiled. A sweet smile that melted Elora’s heart in an instant. Caspian didn’t answer, his hands busy reaching into the pockets of his jeans. Elora shifted slightly, so Caspian could do it more easily.Caspian held out his clasped hand, then lifted it and opened his palm right in front of Elora. In his hand was a diamond ring.“I bought it last night.”Elora flinched. “You didn’t buy it after getting drunk at the bar, did you?”“I’m not you.” Caspian joked.“Why me?” Elora folded her arms in front of her chest with a snort.“Drink half a bottle of whiskey and put on your lover’s clothes.”“I told you it wasn’t—”Elora’s words stopped when Caspian covered Elora’s li

A large room greeted them at the bottom of the stairs. Caspian aimed his flashlight in all directions, then at the ceiling. The light couldn’t tell how high the room was. This place was more like an assembly hall than a secret place to lock someone up. They walked to the nearest wall and found intricate scribbles on its surface.Apart from the writings that Elora didn’t understand the meaning of, there were also deep claw marks, as well as large fragments of walls on the floor. Something devastating has happened here.“Do you understand what all these means?” asked Caspian. They looked up and found the scribbles written half the height of the wall.“No.” Elora shook her head. “But everything looks familiar.”They walked to the center of the room and stopped when they found a podium. The podium was just an adult chest-high table, square and as wide as an open book. On instinct, Elora placed her hands on the p

“They will do it today.” Jason, who was crouching next to Elora in the basement's corner, whispered in Elora’s ear as if he was afraid that someone would hear his words. Although there was no one here but the two of them.“Do what?” Elora blinked innocently. She didn’t understand the meaning of her brother’s words.Jason’s black hair swayed lightly as he exhaled loudly. “Repel the creature! The creature that makes your body explode and makes a member of the pack should stay away from our family!” Jason shrieked, still in a whisper. “After the creature is gone, you can sleep again in your room! Mom has decorated your room with pink and stuffed bunnies!”Elora’s eyes widened at Jason’s words. The curve of a smile etched on her tiny lips. Elora glanced at the battered metal bed a few meters away from where she was. Her mother had tried to decorate this place as beautiful as possible

Ten years later….Caspian looked at himself in the long mirror in his room. Today is a very important day in his life. The day he had been waiting for for the last ten years.Caspian deliberately opened the bedroom door, because he was waiting for someone to arrive. As Caspian was adjusting the position of the suit attached to his body, the bedroom door snapped open and someone ran in, screaming.“Uncle!!”“I told you, call him Alpha!”A loud bang was heard, and the sound of a child screaming in pain followed. Caspian frowned, sharing the pain in the boy’s head. “It’s okay, Kate. He’s my nephew, anyway.”“If I let him, he’ll go easy on you, Cas!”“Mommy sucks!” Cooper shouted, then he ran away, leaving Caspian and Kate.Caspian smiled widely and hugged Kate. Kate hugged him back. She gave Caspian a few pats on the back before they let go.

“Elora!”Caspian shouted for her, but Elora kept running. They thrashed the snow under their feet, breaking through dry branches and braving the skin-biting air. Elora was in werewolf form, and she ran faster than Caspian.Caspian continued to chase after her, but all he could see was Elora’s back getting further and further away. Until they came to a dark and almost frozen riverbank. Elora suddenly stopped, then turned around. “Stop! Stay away from me!” she screamed. Caspian stopped a few yards from Elora. His lungs ached, and the wound throbbed like a second heart.“Elora,” Caspian spoke Elora’s name carefully, as if her name was sacred and contained magic. That one word can describe how longed and desperate Caspian is. He walked over, turning himself into a human again. Instantly, a chill shot through Caspian, worsening his condition and making his wound feel like it was being stabbed by a thousand tiny needles.

“Don’t move,” said Brittany. She hitting Caspian in the chest with her rock-hard fist.“Ouch!” Caspian groaned. “Brit, you know I’m sick, right?”“No. Your wound should be healed by now.”“I’m still recovering.”“Bullshit.”“Have you ever been shot with a silver bullet?”Brittany stopped arguing. She shrugged and glanced at the nightstand beside Caspian’s bed. “I still can’t find her,” Brittany muttered. “It was as if she had disappeared from this world.”“She’s still alive. I can feel it.”“How about you stop looking for her? It’s been a month, Cas.”“Only a month, Brit.”Brittany took a deep breath, then when she looked back at Caspian, a smile tugged at her pink lips. “I can’t keep mobilizing my members to look for h

“Hëna.”Arapeta’s voice was at the threshold of Elora’s hearing. She felt dead to the world, but she was still awake. Elora could see everything around her, but at the same time, she could not feel her body. Elora seemed to float in another dimension, which looked the same as the world she knew.“No,” someone denied. Zed’s breath was close to Elora’s ear, whispering a doubtful refusal. “Hëna wouldn’t want to meet lowly werewolves like you! She is too sacred to be seen by the ignorant eye!”“Look who’s talking,” said Javier. “You mean the moon goddess doesn’t want to see you?”The sound of bullets cut through the night, and a moan of pain escaped Javier’s lips. “Bastard.” Zed gritted his teeth as he realized his shot had only hit the edge of Javier’s arm.Zed pulled the trigger again, but the gun fell from his hand,

“You can guess the rest,” Zed said. “He confronted me, and since we were both anxious about each other’s secrets, we started arguing. I purposely took him to the edge of the forest, far from the city. I felt that our conversation would not go well, so I prepared for the worst.”“You—you killed Cooper?” Caspian gasped.Elora couldn’t see Caspian right now, but she could imagine how devastated Caspian would be to know one by one the harsh realities that were happening around him.Elora thought Zed would laugh and admit it proudly. However, there was only a cold reaction to Caspian’s question. “Didn’t you hear my explanation? Your best friend sells drugs!! And you’re angry because I killed him?? You should thank me!! I have removed the trouble from your pack!!”“You killed him! You killed Cooper and you’ve been acting like you know nothing?! Have you gone mad?!&rd

“Are you sure?” Cooper asked. He still didn’t believe in Zed’s theory. The pack of The Moon Protectors was long extinct, and there is not enough evidence that they inherited Hëna’s powers. But Zed had done a lot of research, relating events, until he concluded; there was still one werewolf from that pack. And she is a woman.“Damn sure,” Zed replied.They were sitting on the balcony of the Sacred Storm restaurant. It’s a full moon tonight, and because it’s the holiday season, many tourists come here, including single women. Soft prey to satisfy Zed’s passion. Cooper was happy to see Zed in action because he said every woman looked so hilarious when they had fallen for Zed’s seduction. Although Cooper often says that Zed’s behavior is immoral, Zed knows Cooper enjoys it too. Seeing how helpless the women were in front of them.“Then what’s your plan?” Cooper asked again

Caspian didn’t know if the plan he had put together with Javier, Arapeta, Aiden, and Hanupo could go smoothly. Caspian wasn’t even sure what they were talking about together was a rescue plan. After learning that Zed betrayed him, Caspian could no longer expect the members of the Sacred Storm pack to submit to him. Caspian knew some of them had sympathy for Zed.Caspian drove to the abandoned wine cellar in the west. It used to be the territory of the Sacred Storm, but through tough negotiations with the Alphas at that time, they decided that the area would become a neutral area and a barrier between the territory of one pack from another.Caspian left his car on the side of the road. He made sure no one was around before turning himself into a werewolf. The sky was getting darker as Caspian made his way through the woods. The longer Caspian could feel the energy radiate from the other werewolves. There were many werewolves up ahead, and none of them Caspia

Cold. Dark. A faint sweet and bitter aroma.Elora opened her eyes, but she couldn’t see anything. The intoxicating smell of medicine still lingered in her nostrils. After a while, she realized that someone had covered her eyes with a black cloth.“Judging by the way you’re moving, it looks like you’ve come to your senses.” A familiar voice greeted her. That’s Zed. Elora could feel Zed beside her. His breath brushed against Elora’s cheek.“Let me go,” said Elora.Zed chuckled. “Why are you saying such useless things? You think I’ll let you go when you ask me to?”Elora struggled. They tied Elora’s body with ropes to a chair. As Zed ran a finger up Elora’s cheek, Elora rebelled and shivered in disgust. “Get your hands off me,” Elora hissed.“Don’t piss me off, El. Soon we will be husband and wife.”Elora gasped. “What

Caspian drives like a madman after Elora doesn’t answer his calls, and when Caspian calls Javier, that man says he left Elora alone. When Caspian got angry at this, Javier said, “Hey! I didn’t mean to leave her! She insists on being alone!”Caspian parked his car carelessly in the parking area of Elora’s apartment. He rushed to the second floor and knocked on Elora’s apartment door in a hurry. “Elora! Open the door! It’s me!”No answer. Even Caspian didn’t hear any movement in there. Caspian tried to knock again, this time louder. Instead of Elora coming out, it was the residents of the apartment opposite Elora’s apartment who opened the door. An old woman walking with a cane.“She went out with a black-haired man,” she said, half grumbling. “For God’s sake, what happened to her recently? She hadn’t been home in a long time, and last time she made a big fuss. I almo
