LIONEL

If I could make Regina Donovan disappear from the face of the earth, I would have gladly done that. But this was beginning to get on my nerves and I was starting to find it very strange.

What her father had said had been true whether I wanted to believe it or not. The last time I had convinced Regina to run off, she had said just the same thing. She couldn’t do what Marcy did because she wanted to fulfill her obligations to her pack and her pack wouldn’t have to suffer for her actions. She was clearly willing to be the sacrifice for the pack before she left my sight that day.

Had she changed her mind at the last minute and taken off? Even after such a strong resort? No… if she had run off, I have the feeling her father would have known; the same way he knew Marcy had run off. There would have been signs of an escapade everywhere. Her clothes and other essentials would be packed and Alpha Donovan would have not needed to come in here, trying to at

    LIONELMy head was spinning wildly. That was true—Frankenstein was with me for a good while, but he could still have planned to help Regina. He may have done that with the help of someone else. Anyway, chances that it was him were now slim for me. He was weak and all shaken that day, and besides, if indeed her disappearance had to do with the letter she got, then it couldn’t have been Frankenstein because he was busily collapsing from poisoning in my office. Gosh, I wanted to hydrate, shapeshift into my wolf form and get the hell out of all this. What was the solution to this riddle? “It doesn’t mean you couldn’t have still been involved.” I replied. “It only makes chances slim.” My key suspect was still Arturo and now, Frankenstein was on the list but somewhere minor. My eyes trailed on someone else now…“If I wanted to help Regina, sir, I…” I couldn’t even hear what Frankenstein was saying. My entire thoughts rang as I watc

    REGINA I ran through the large stress of wheat as fast as my legs could carry me. I was tired, I was breathless but I didn’t stop. I kept surging forward, screaming as I went, unbothered about who heard me anymore - not when they were already following the path I made through the crops, right behind me. If I could just make it to the forest!I could feel Ruby within me, strength draining from us both. We need to keep pushing, as hard as we could. I kept going, but I could feel them closing in. I could hear their breath. The forest was there, just right there. I was going to make it!I lurched into the first clearing of the forest trees as I began to glide my way into the woods. It was getting dark and it should make it easy to camouflage in the dark and find a way to hide my scent. The clouds were dimmed with a trace of scarlet that could have been the aftermath of the setting sun or the coming of the rising moon. I

  • Loving the Cold-Hearted Alpha Lionel    Let’s Hunt

    REGINAI wasn’t thinking straight so it was easy to believe I was probably imagining all these. All that mattered was that even if this was just my imagination, I had broken free somehow and I had to run as fast as I could. I could be dreaming, but that was okay, as long as I made it out alive.So I ran through the wheat crops again the same way I had run earlier in the evening, panting for breath. It was totally dark now, but I could still navigate my way through. Even as I ran, from behind, my senses picked up the voices of the men. One of them was coming from the back of the shed towards the front now and I could tell he was bringing a piece of the meat they were roasting for me.He was going to find out!Run, Regina… Run!I was getting farther away. It was easier now to believe I could actually make it out now deep into the forest before they could trace anything out, my scent gone. Then I heard someone yell.He had seen I was not present in the shed anymore. He had raised an al

    REGINA The only move I had now was to wait for the beast below to continue his search through the forest so I could leap down from the tree and even contemplate escaping the midst of these creatures. But for some reason, he wasn’t moving yet. He remained within the circumference of the tree on which I sat still, watching with my heart racing. He prowled around back and forth, almost like he was noticing something amiss. There is trouble, Regina. I heard Ruby whisper within me. When they reach their full potential under phenomena like the blood moon, their entire senses are heightened. That includes sense of smell, hearing, speed, and strength. I was completely screwed. There could only be one reason why he was yet to dive carelessly into the forest and continue his search - he was suspecting I was around. He may be hearing your very breath. Ruby warned. I was probably panting ou

    REGINA I panted weakly. “It is all your fault, Richie. At least, I would die letting you know that.” I whispered tiredly. I couldn’t believe I was actually going to die but there was nothing more to do at this point. I had given up from within me and I could feel that Ruby was also totally finished within me. It was over. “You should never have chosen to work for Lionel in the first place. You used to be just some street bully that anyone could overlook, and now you’ll be a killer.”He growled angrily and in frustration. “It was a handsome pay, you piece of shit, and if you had cooperated, everything would have played out just fine.”“I’m a wolf. I have instincts to survive.” I countered.“Which is why you decided to kill my friends, right?”What?“I don’t understand.” I was confused. I never killed the other two men. He snarled at me, revealing a pair of fangs. “They came after you and you killed them. You took them d

    LIONELIt was so frustrating to even imagine that the person who could have plotted everything was right here at this party and my suspects were still all echoing in my head.Arturo.Frankenstein.And now that Beatrice had cooked up the guts to threaten me, she was struggling at the top of the list side by side Arturo. I went after her as she tried to make her way through the guests and fix herself in as neatly as possible.I pulled her again to a corner, trying everything within my power to remain so cool.“Beatrice, where the hell did you keep Regina?”She laughed. “Are you asking for favors after you just looked down on me?”“Believe me, this is not a favor I’m asking of you. I am doing you a favor. You may be able to save your life if you could just tell me now where you have Regina Donovan because if I would have to find out myself, it could cost you your life, Beatrice.” I warned.“You’re threaten

    LIONELI took a deep breath and sighed.I looked up at the moon, trying as much to look like I was indeed, drawing some energy from the moon.What if I don’t get this special alpha call, right? Was there some special call for the alpha of the pack under this blood moon? What were their expectations? If I flopped it, there could be signs pointing to a malfunction within the alpha and it could prompt some side thoughts I didn’t even want to bring to mind.Yes, they would think me weak.Everyone’s eyes were on me, waiting, anticipating. I stole a glance around. There was grandpa, there was Ryker at the top of the stairs, his gaze being encouraging though the worry of searching for Regina still lingered around his face. I could spot Gwen beside Raphael, Regina’s father. I could see Arturo waiting earnestly, then there was Beatrice beside some strange man, clutched to him and also Frankenstein. One hell of a party this was.

    REGINAI made it out of the house unnoticed successfully and now I could only hope that somehow, when I got to Lionel’s house, they would still all be waiting for them.The best way to make this work without causing panic was to act like it was all my idea to surprise everyone just so that the wedding can immediately take place before the blood moon passed. Afterwards, there would be so much explaining to do.I used a ride inside, which I applied makeup to my face. Thanks to Gwen, it wasn’t so difficult to work up an emergency brush up for makeup. In no time, I was looking like I was present for the wedding indeed.It was when I drew closer to the Williams mansion that the reality that this was my wedding and not some movie shoot hit me really hard. I could see the lights from within and could see that somehow, their roof had opened up for the blood moon to shine into the actual hall. That was beautiful. Too bad, the marriage itself wasn’t going t

    LIONEL I was in a world where I was just having a little fun and both women fell dead right before me while I barely escaped an attacker that could clean up a murder scene in seconds. I was in a world where everything was uncertain. What if I just found Regina to be dead? How would I explain it all to Grandpa? How would Grandpa ever forgive me when I wouldn’t even be able to forgive myself? Forgive myself? I gave it a thought. Had I done something wrong? Well, I had been careless with her. I should never have let her out of my sight, no matter how much I despised her. I should have ensured she was always there. Staying in a different room was a bad idea. Now, there was only one way to right all these wrongs. I needed to goddamn move! There was also the detective, though. Nicholas had called the night before and I had never reached out to him again. Perhaps this was also a good time to talk to h

    LIONEL “No, Lucius. I think something is beginning to make sense. This cars speaks about healing... restoration of energy... ” Lucius waited, almost like he was beginning to see what I was seeing as well. “Do you remember the night at the wedding, Lucius? The moment when I and Regina were to heal from the blood bonding... We were not healing because our energy core was broken, but then Regina was not healing either.” Are you saying Regina has an issue with her energies as well? “I can’t conclude for sure, but it was most likely that somehow, Regina also had the problem with her energies. You said it yourself that the fact that we were broken did not in any way affect her own healing process, and yet she wasn’t healing fast enough. So what if she had come here…” To find healing? Lucius completed. Oh, dear goddess. I ran my fingers through my hair in realization. It was like an ima

    REGINA It was so dark anyone could have stumbled and fallen but I could easily glide through thanks to my night vision. “Ray, come this way. Hold my hand and let’s go together.” I could hear Ray’s discomfort, stumbling over the rocky grounds as he tried to keep up. I held his arm now and continued through the cave. I could still spot the wolf ahead, gliding through gracefully, checking every now and then to see if we were still following. Then suddenly, the wolf vanished from sight. I was still so busy running as fast as I could that I didn’t even notice that the wolf was already out of sight. When I took notice, however, I came to a stop. Ray stopped beside me, holding his knees as he coughed uncontrollably. Neither of us said a word because we were too busy struggling with our breaths. But I was also too busy trying to find the wolf. I couldn’t see anything. Even with my night vision, this felt darker th

    LIONEL They would only find their casualties and of course, they should be wiser next time. I heard them from inside and then they were out in the dark again, by the shores of the beach with their guns poised as they scouted the dark, searching for something that may point towards me. Then they started advancing towards the forest, splitting up. The next instinct in my mind now was to play their game, of course. All I needed to do was follow them into the forest—my domain and territory—and there I would kill them one after the other. But then I remembered the casualties in my room. Not only were two men dead—two men whose colleagues had taken their bodies out just before me and most definitely cleared out the evidence of them ever being there. There were also the two ladies I was just having a good time with lying death in my room, both shot in the head. Why was it that anytime I decided to have a little bi

    LIONEL What harm could be in a little moment of sex, just a little time to enjoy myself and forgetting the shit of a wife I married? That was what I was experiencing now. I was Lionel Williams. I had my way with whatever I wanted. Imagine having two girls go head over heels to have this moment with me, and yet, there was a wife I had who dared to leave me sight and go out fucking another man. Fuck you, Regina! The good thing is there was something to put all that anger on now. As I cursed at Regina, I squeezed Lydia’s boobs and spanked Jemma’s butts. Both women were already sliding out of their dresses, both stark naked as they moaned and panted, struggling for who could kiss me first. I was still in my clothes even though Lydia’s hand slipped underneath my shirt and rubbed my breasts till it hardened. Jemma was faster. She instantly slid her palm over the bulge of my pants, struggling to grab my crotch as

    REGINA After a good while, all we found was nothing but large mountains, a couple of trees sticking out around cooler areas and endless piles of dusty stones. “We can’t be sure we’re making any headway.” Ray stated now beneath one of the shades we found with trees around. “Neither can we be sure we’re safe, right?” I mentioned. Ray gave me an inquisitive glance. “You feel it could be dangerous finding the Mountain Men?” I shrugged. “Well, we can’t exactly tell what is going on yet, can we?” “So what is your plan B? What would happen if we found these Mountain Men and we couldn’t seem to find our way back?” “Lionel would definitely come to look for us.” I replied. Ray seemed panicked. “Look, I need us to get this straight. You said Lionel would not be here to find us.” “Yes, that’s if, of course, I make it back in a day plus and not more than that

    REGINA “Such is life. I need help here, Ray, and from your knowledge, only you can help me in this desperate time.” I convinced him further. He nodded now, apparently more energized and ready for the trip. “Alright, are we going to walk there or take a vehicle?” “I don’t want us drawing attention. It’s a tourist center so eyes could be on us. I think we should walk the way.” Ray made a face but shrugged nevertheless. “Alright, we move then.” He replied. I headed for the door slowly and hesitated when I felt his arm on my shoulder. “Regina, are you sure about this?” He asked. I smiled. “Believe me, no sane person wants to embark on this journey. If it wasn’t that important, I wouldn’t be doing this.” He nodded. “Then let’s do what had to be done.’ I left the room, happy to have met someone as helpful and supportive as Ray. As we made our way out of the room, I locke

    REGINA “Don’t worry, Ray. There’s nothing you should worry about.” “Regina, your husband was a werewolf and you didn’t even, at least, warn me that he was something of such, not to talk about even telling me about this. In all, I should have just stayed away from you!” “To hell with that, Ray!” I shot back. “Whatever Lionel is cannot stop me from living my life the way I want!” He shook his head. “Regina… Regina… You’re not listening. Your so-called husband could have killed me. That easy, Regina!” “He wouldn’t hurt you. He could threaten you but he wouldn’t hurt you.” “What is wrong with you? I mean, you sound so sure of something so abnormal.” I shrugged. “What can I say? He’s my husband.” Ray suddenly paused and I could see a new curiosity on his face. It was like he had read another new discovery in my words. “Regina… if you could marry the werewolf. Are you al

  • Loving the Cold-Hearted Alpha Lionel    What Happened With Regina

    REGINA I was alive, I was safe, and I was just wondering whether Lionel was even thinking about me. It began with the night of the accident when the car had slid down the hill and Lionel had come just in time to rescue me. That same night, I had struck a new deal with him and saved myself from having to be blackmailed each time I set my eyes upon him—I was not going to bother Grandpa with news of the accident and he was not going to ever bring it up as me being indebted to him. It had gone perfectly well with him in his room, and at this point, all I wanted to do was return to my room and allow myself to fall deeply asleep. It was just after I had a shower that I got a knock. The first idea I had was that Lionel was back again with something to rule out my little threat against him. On the contrary, it was my good new friend. It was Ray. “Hey, Ray.” I made to shake him as I extended my hand to him. He shrugg
