ROZETA:"What's her name?" The question came from behind me, interrupting my train of thoughts which was in the line of what in the world I was doing inside the woods with two grown-up men that could as well be dangerous.I stop to take a glance at the questioner who turned out to be none other than Jax. "Who are you talking about?" is my question to have a better understanding of what he was talking about.He stops as well, making him stand face-to-face with me. "Your wolf..."I didn't need any more understanding to know he was talking about Dera. And the fact that he just asked that brought me to the point of remembrance that I haven't spoken to her for some time now. It was like she wasn't there anymore."Dera," I say and then turn to continue walking to catch up with his supposed friend who was leading the way.From behind me, I hear him say, "It's a nice name."I didn't even acknowledge his words because I didn't want him to think I actually do care whether or not the name was ni

ROZETA:"Rozeta..."The wind blew the call of my name in my direction. Was solemn but I felt it rush against my soul, moving me to open my eyes to take a look at what had called out to me.I was met with the strangest of environment. So strange that I was beginning to wonder when Jax and his friend moved me from the haven without my knowledge.Right above me was nothing but the blue sky, leaving me to question how long I'd been asleep when I recall closing my eyes to sleep not too long ago. I'm almost sent into a state of panic but I control myself almost at the last second. All I need to figure out is where this is.One thing I was able to notice was that I wasn't laying on a bed. It was nothing more than the grass beneath me and it brings more questions to me."Jax?" I summon the courage to call out to the man who should be here with me. That's if he's even anywhere around.I get no answer to my call but it didn't stop me from calling him more. If I remembered the name of his friend

JAX:Sitting out here was not to just clear my head or anything. I did it because I wanted to keep watch of the environment just in case anything seems to want to go wrong.I have been outside since the previous night. And by the look of things, it was early into the new day already. Still, it was all dark due it to it just being midnight.Voden has been my company all through or else I would not be able to cope with something like this, especially with the tension mounted on me. I was even tenser than when I kept watch over Rozeta all through the night that she was discovered by my brother.'You need to keep calm. There's no way she's going to let you train her on how to use her abilities as a wolf. She wouldn't even want you anywhere near her,' Voden tells me through the mind link. And this was due to a long argument that ensued between us regarding Rozeta.Seeing that she would need every available means to survive, I opted to teach her the basics on how to control her wolf and als

ROZETA:As ironical as it sounds, there was an atom or truth in what I said about Dera. She was indeed beautiful even with the deadly gaze she had. Although it felt more from staring into her eyes than her face.Recalling the events of the dream I had which still feels so real at the moment is what I use to describe all I had to describe to Jax about Dera. I think he was so interested in what I had to say because each time I look in his direction, I find him focusing on me.I end my description with me waking up to realize I was in the room given to me. I didn't fail to express the disappointment I had in knowing that she kept the identity of Jax away from me but I didn't let him know that part. It was best I keep it away from him for my sanity.I stare into space once I was done with all I had to say. I don't know if I was awaiting a response on that from him or just a word to acknowledge that everything I did see was not stupid. The only thing that would be stupid here is if Jax tel

JAX:Manuel agreed to follow me when I told him I wanted to gather some sticks in the woods. I wanted to make sure we had secondary options for defense and those sticks would go a long way in helping us.Even though I found it not okay to leave Rozeta in the cottage alone, I had no choice but to do that because I still needed her to get enough rest. She deserves it after all.It didn't take too long since both Manuel and I set out before we found a path in the woods where there were enough tree branches that we could cut down.We set to work instantly by climbing up the trees and breaking the branches one after the other. Not everything though. Only the ones strong enough to be used.The task didn't take us too long and we were done in no time. What was left now to do was to gather the sticks and take them to the cottage where we would file them to make the edges pointy enough for penetration.It wasn't much work because that was something we were already used to. Or perhaps I should

JAX: Voden snarls at the beings surrounding us with such intensity that oozed the will to kill. And for a moment I thought that was going to happen already. As I was behind the wheel in his head, I watched as he looked around at the beings in his beastly form. At the same time, he was trying to sniff out the scent of Rozeta which we both believed was nearby. She couldn't have gone far just yet. I could still feel the connection with her which means she was still alive and well. We have no idea what sort of plan the warriors have in my mind which is why we haven't moved to attack yet. Going in for an attack first could set us up for an ambush and that was the last thing we needed. The moment we noticed one of the warriors move to attack, we were both on alert as we prepare to lunge at the warrior. Voden was extremely furious and that was going to make the whole thing easy. "I didn't give you that order, did I?" That put the said warrior to a stop and my sense link the words coming

ROZETA:It could almost feel like I was going up and down at the same time, so much so that it was making me dizzy. I couldn't even tell what position I was in but I was certain that it was affecting my whole being.At first, it seemed I was galloping but then it changed to me being on a rise. I couldn't even make sense out of everything and my eyes seemed to not want to open no matter how hard I try to get them opened.I give up on the task as I let the whole scenario I was in go with the flow of things. I didn't even bother fighting to open my eyes. I was sure that could change soon enough and that was my final decision on my being before I fall into a mode of complete unconsciousness._____"Rozeta!" The first call."Rozeta!" It was the second one from a familiar voice."Yes?" I quickly respond to that as I find myself balancing out to the newfound environment.It was the same place that I woke up to a night ago. The same place where I found out what Dera looks like.I couldn't see

ROZETA:Instantly I begin to struggle to get off whatever I was because it dawned on me that I was being carried off by something.Being intoxicated with what they call bane and then not remembering anything else after that could easily mean I was being carted away by those that actually used it on me just to knock me out. This is why I need to find a way to get free before I'm taken to somewhere I cannot get out from.My hands were being held as I became aware that I was actually being carried by a person. Could be another type of person but then this was a human feature I was being carried on.As my hands were being held tight, I resort to using my hand as a means to get myself out of this. The supposed carrier was not letting me go free so this should be a bigger step and it looked to be working already because he was already letting me go.The being stops with his race and then with a bit of force, pushes me off his back, making me land butt-first on the ground.I try not to whimp

ROZETA:I went through a lot before getting here. Had to deal with some pests that threatened to cut short my existence.Even right now, I was feeling the impact of having to go against a lot and it was that little energy I carried along with me until I arrived back at the scene where it all seemed to be going down between Jax and Manuel.However, I was too late. The one thing I tried to prevent happened. And it just had to happen right about the time I arrived on the scene.The slice through the air, and the little grunt that followed it told me what I needed to know. Jax has just clawed through Manuel and that was the end of it all.I did try to stop Jax just in time by yelling out a loud 'No' but then it didn't seem to have an impact. Instead, it only rained in the air before it did happen.I should be happy, shouldn't I? Jax has just gotten rid of the biggest threat to the both of us. And that was fine because walking on the face of this earth with Manuel still in it wasn't worth

MANUEL:For a moment, I was disoriented. I couldn't make sense of what I did. It was as if everything was happening so fast for me.I let go of the being in my hand, dropping her to the ground as I turn my full attention toward the area that I just shot at. And the only question I keep asking myself repeatedly is: Why is Beta Zeke on the ground instead of Jax's wolf?I know what I shot at. I know who I shot. I know who my target was. But why am I seeing something different?Have I just ruined everything with my hands? Did I just make a mess of a plan that has been coming together for such a long time? Why in the world is this happening?I have to take a look at my hand that had the gun in it. It's something I've known how to handle since I was little. A survival training, it was. And that meant I should be able to have a grip on myself whenever I shoot at something.Did the bullet deviate? Did it take a turn on its own? How did it end up meeting the wrong person?I wasn't even given a

ROZETA:I could feel my heart beating against my chest as I stared into the eyes of the man determined to end my life. Imagine being this close to death and knowing just how inevitable it was. Well, that was my situation at the moment.I've never been this scared all my life. Maybe I have but I don't think any other way I've ever felt could be compared to this one.Perhaps to taunt me, Manuel clicks the trigger, making it seem like he was going to shoot me. I shut my eyes the instant I hear the sound, expecting a loud bang but nothing comes out of it.The only problem was my heart beating even faster and I found satisfaction on Manuel's face when I open my eyes to look at him. He was apparently enjoying my predicament and I wasn't even sure what to feel about that."You've always interfered in everything that concerns this mission I started years ago," Manuel starts to say. "Now I don't know what you have to do with all of this especially when it was me who got you linked with all of

JAX:"What are you doing?" I hear Rozeta's desperate voice from behind but ignore it, my mind only focused on getting back to where I got her out from.I didn't even care about the wound on my arm or the pain that I felt radiating from it. I just wanted to do things my way from now on. And that starts from the mess that had caught up with my pack.I feel a strong grip on my arm, putting me to a halt. Actually, an impulse took over, resulting in me turning around to challenge the one who just halted my movement.I restrained myself from doing anything drastic. Instead, I snap and I sure as hell regretted doing that after."What?" is what I say out. And that mere action makes Rozeta tremble as she supposedly was the one who stopped me.She lets go of my arm, taking two steps backward to keep her distance from me. It was at that point that I realized what I just did and I instantly hate myself for it."I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that," I tell her, apologizing for my ill attitude. S

ROZETA:Was I sure about what I heard? Was I even sure it could be linked to my assumption? I couldn't say. But there was this conviction that I just might be right.The Beta looked like he was in a tight position. It was as if I just accused him of the most grievous offense and for a moment, I thought I didn't hear right.However, everything was pointing toward what I heard. The eye contact with Manuel, the partial look of guilt, the cold silence that ensued... I know I was right for accusing the Beta."What are you talking about?" the Beta says, letting out a dry laugh as he says that. "Who am I with? Him? Don't be ridiculous.""If you're not with him, then why did you tell him to kill me already?" I ask in return, standing up in the process.For a second, I notice the look of bewilderment flashes on his face. It was only for a second and certainly enough for him to act like it was all good. But I know what I saw."Where did you hear me say that? Did becoming an ill-bred turn your b

ROZETA: All of a sudden I was uncomfortable. And, no, I wasn't suffering discomfort from seeing Jax's old friend around. I can't fully pinpoint where the uneasiness was coming from but I was going to rely on it because it felt like something I had to hold on to. This was the point where the cuffs had to be taken off our arms. Jax and I were about to be caught in the middle of a confrontation between the warriors of his pack and the one who has a thing against them. Although he came out alone, all the warriors had their weapons pointed toward his direction, all active and ready to attack. This could get messy and it is one of the reasons I shouldn't be here. Neither should Jax. I notice as Manuel's eyes linger until it lands on Jax standing beside me. And the way he looked at him, it seems he has something against him. "You just wouldn't leave, would you?" is what he says. It wasn't loud enough but certainly enough for me to gauge something. "And you just can't quit, right?" Jax

ROZETA:It was weird, but I felt an instant connection the moment Jax and I arrived in front of a gateway similar to the one we exited from.I couldn't help but ask, "This is it, right?" My eyes were up as I looked toward him, anticipating an answer that way.He looks down for a brief second and instead of saying anything, just nods. At least that was confirmation of my question.After all the travels and trials I've been through, I was finally in front of the Silver Falls pack. The pack where I should be called a member but then I was placed on a death radar due to unforeseen circumstances.Anxiety begins to eat me up almost instantly, especially when I figure that we are this close to getting in. Okay, this might sound stupid but I want to go back already.I don't know if Jax was feeling the same way I was feeling. Looking at him, he looked more relaxed than ever. It could be a fake because he was certainly good at hiding his true emotions. So until he says to me that he was indeed

JAX: I couldn't help but plant a kiss on her forehead moments after waking up. It didn't do anything to disturb her sleep but she must have felt that because she winced in her sleep. I couldn't lay a decent explanation for how I was feeling now. A lot of complications radiated through me. But one thing for sure is that I was excited. How was she going to convince me now to take her to the Silver Falls pack with me? Does she expect me to fall into a well of depression now that I was certain of my stand with her? Hell no, I can't. I just can't. As crazy as it sounds, one thing went through my head during my intimate moment with her. And that was to mark her fully as mine. I'm surprised my fangs didn't even elongate during the process. It would have been a bit of a stupid idea to make use of that momentum to do something as huge as that but I was not thinking straight when the thought first went through my head. Now I'm not even sure if it was right that I even let it into me in the

ROZETA:Being wrapped in the arms of a man is not how I pictured waking up in the woods. Even with how unplanned it was, it still felt therapeutic enough for a lost soul like me.As my eyes become clear enough, I try to gauge my environment. It didn't take me long to discover it was where I slept off and the supposed man who had his arms around me was Jax, judging from his particular scent that has come to make an impact on me.My head lay on his broad chest, giving me a direct connection with his heartbeat. It was soft and almost too calm for me that I find myself craving more of it often.I have to gently shift back to give me space to check his face. He could still be sleeping so I pushed back with ease until I had enough space to look up.As soon as my eyes linger up, it goes back down at the same time, with my heart almost going into a frenzy. This is because Jax was fully awake with his eyes looking down at me.I didn't expect him to be awake. Neither did I expect that he would
