He walked into the tall building of the flea corporation, built with beautiful glass walls. The employees who met him on the way greeted him with a bow, but he didn't reply; he just walked towards the special elevator for only the president and vice president with his assistant behind him."Is Jason coming today?" He asked as he stepped into the elevator, and his assistant pressed the last floor button. "I don't think so, sir.""That will make it a week now, right?" He asked again, to which his assistant nodded. Another problem in his life was his brother. He is the vice president, but he only comes to the office once in a while, making a lot of work for him to do.And no matter how much he talked to him and persuaded him, he just didn't listen. He wished Liam could have gone into business instead of studying medicine. "Remind me we're going to his house today. And don't contact him about it." He said.The elevator opened, and they both stepped out. Only a few people work on the last
Her treatment was stopped, and the nurse left the house. She was angry as she accepted her fate and went to do her chore of cleaning his room. "I should be planning my life right now, but no. I'm here scrubbing toilets." She complained loudly as she cleaned. She didn't even know whether she was angry at herself or him.Suddenly, she dropped the brush and stood up to look at herself through the bathroom mirror. She removed the scarf she had used to cover the mark on her. "You shouldn't have signed that contract, Amelia. You wouldn't have ended up like this." She said to herself, rubbing the mark as if to wipe it off."He would have killed my family if I hadn't." She sighed. "But how can I persuade him? Begging can't do it again, especially when I can't even control the anger happening to me lately." She thought for a long time, trying to come up with any ideas to persuade him, but couldn't find anything.After cleaning, she left the room to go prepare breakfast in the kitchen. She was
"Red forest?" She asked to be sure she heard him right, to which Aiden also replied. "What's wrong? You can't go."Amelia was quiet, lost in thought. How could she venture into a forest filled with a variety of evil and poisonous plants? And the fact that some dark, evil witches reside there makes it a difficult place to survive, especially for a weak wolf like her. No human or wolf ever made it out of there alive, except the wolf, who is powerful. She would have to do it. It's her only chance. "But why would he want a plant from the red forest?" She thought. She was pushed out of her thoughts when she heard, "I guess you're not interested..."No. I'll do it." She quickly said, only to see the man with a hint of surprise on his face before he covered it with a cold expression."You only have two hours, and to be more pitiful to you, a driver will drop you at the entrance of the forest. You find your way back." He said before picking up his phone to check the time. "Your time starts n
"What do we have here?" The guy said, holding the red-haired girl's wrist with his hand while the other held her chin to give a clearer view of her face. He let go of her and also walked towards Amelia, who was already shivering in fear."Intruders in the red forest. What could have brought you to your graves?" One of the ladies asked with a smile as she walked towards both of them. She looked at the red-haired girl, who was carrying a cross bag, which she knew must contain something of theirs, and also at the other girl, who was hiding a hibiscus behind her back."Should I just shove that flower in your mouth?" She asked, looking at Amelia, who was just looking down on her knees in fear.Amelia noticed how the girl took a step forward towards her, and she couldn't help the tears that ran out of her eyes. She was helpless, and the only thing she could think of was that she would die soon. There was no way a weak, helpless wolf like her could fight the dark witch, who was staring at he
She hurried into the house in the hopes that luck was on her side and that her time didn't run out. Entering the house, she saw him in the same spot she left him. All his attention was on his phone; he didn't even look at her, despite knowing she was already standing in front of him."He's not even worried?" She thought, but didn't say a word or stress herself to think about it. She dropped the plant, covered with a small white cloth, on the table. "Here it is. I got the plant just as you wanted." She said, still looking at him as he kept scrolling through his phone without looking at her or the flower on the table.She got furious, but she was still holding everything in. She waited for about a minute until he dropped the phone beside him and finally looked at the flower. He looked at it for a while before he stood up and said, "Dispose it."Amelia was shocked. She looked at the man, who had turned her back towards her and was going towards the stairs. "Dispose it?" She couldn't beli
He sat in the hallway of the wards, looking at the door she had been rushed into an hour ago. His emotions were unreadable, as he just kept looking with his back resting on the chair and his hands placed in his pockets. Just then, Eric walked toward where he was. "Alpha," he called out.Without looking at him or moving from his position, he said, "You only had one task, Eric."Suddenly, he stood up. Touching the guy's collar lightly. "Tell me what job those guys have done." He asked, but Eric just bowed his head and apologized. "I'm sorry, Alpha."He also left him and sighed, his hand running into his hair. He didn't understand what was going on with him. He couldn't believe he sent her to the red forest, which could be the end of her life, and still tried to save her. And now that she was poisoned, he was still having a strange feeling in him. He didn't understand if it was his wolf, but he would never give any pity to her."Fuck!" He sat back down, while his assistant was just looki
In the savage's home. "Cassandra, come out now. We will be late." Gary screamed, calling out to his wife, who had been in the room for over an hour since he got ready. He straightened his suit, and his wife entered the living room. "I'm ready." She was wearing a black gown that was touching her knees, with a scarf wrapped around her neck."You're so beautiful," Gary said, kissing her cheeks, to which she also smiled before noticing the cloth he was putting on. "I told you not to wear this. It looks so old." She complained."It's not that bad." He said and was about to say something when his phone suddenly started ringing. He looked at it. "An unknown number?" "Pick it," Cassandra said."Hello," he said after he had picked up the call."Good afternoon. Am I on to Mr. Gary Savage?" He heard the voice ask, to which he also answered. "Yes. Who is this?""This is Liam Flea. And I have to tell you that your daughter has been admitted to the best-care hospital.""Liam flea?" He said, calli
The next morning, she refused to stay in the hospital, even when Liam tried to tell her she still needed to be observed before she could be discharged. She didn't want to stay another second in the hospital because she wanted to go home and check her admission status on her phone, and she didn't want any of her family to come back to the hospital to check up on her.She quickly left the hospital early in the morning, to which Liam also helped her get a cab that would take her home. "Thank you so much. I really appreciate it." She said, bowing her head a little, to which he also nodded before she entered the car.He watched the car move down the street away from the hospital until he couldn't see it again. He sighed, feeling pity for the girl. He couldn't understand why his brother was acting so strangely. He made her go to the red forest, which got her poisoned. He was still the same one who went to the forest to get the antidote, and now he was nowhere to be found. Abandoning the rec
The weekend was awkward. They didn't talk to each other; they almost didn't see themselves in the house. Aiden ate nothing from the house, and Amelia also stopped cooking for him when she noticed. She also had her pressing issues, and sulking Aiden was something she was less bothered about.It was finally Monday. The day she had been dreading. She couldn't help but feel she might get another note. And the fact that she had no one to talk to it about. Aiden was not an option for her, and she didn't want to worry or get Alicia into trouble. She went to a morning class and stayed until about one pm until she decided to leave. She had been on edge all morning, expecting another note, but so far, nothing. She left the school to go to the bus stop to take a bus when she noticed someone had been following her.She looked back to see someone wearing a black hoodie and mask. And at the height of it, the person waved at her. Her heart skipped a beat as she saw the person wave at her. She fel
"Are you sure you don't want to have dessert before going?" Vera asked, holding Amelia's hand.Liam and Jason had gone, leaving only her and Aiden. She didn't want to follow Aiden home, but she had no choice, especially when Jason had gone because he had important work. She felt Liam couldn't do anything to hurt Aiden, so she didn't do anything, even though that didn’t stop her from wondering what he wanted to do with the fork.The car had been brought to the driveway, and she was bidding her goodbye while Aiden stood beside the car, looking at them."I'm sorry, Luna." She apologized, to which Vera also smiled. "Ok.""And I'm also sorry about the wine.""How many times do you want me to say it's okay? Stop worrying about that." Vera smiled before looking at Aiden. "Thank you for coming. Get home safe.""Good night, Mother." He said before entering the car. Amelia smiled at Vera one last time before she turned around to enter the car. Her stomach churned at the thought of sitting in th
He had to leave the room when he felt like he might suffocate soon. He walked towards the garden to get some fresh air. Weird things he couldn't give explanations to keep happening to him. He came to have dinner in the pack's house after a long time, for no good reason. And he couldn’t eat well because he couldn't stop staring at Amelia.He even remembered how she was smiling while eating, and that almost brought a smile to his lips. He got to a shed in the garden and took a seat for some time until Jason joined him there. "What are you doing here? Are you feeling hot?" Jason asked with a teasing smile, but Aiden did not say a word or spare him a glance."Is this because of my sister-in-law? Isn't she looking so pretty?" "I told you not to call her that again," Aiden snapped, to which Jason raised his hands. "Ok. I'm sorry." He sat next to him, and silence filled the air for some time until Aiden asked. "You bought the dress?"Jason looked at him. He wasn't expecting such a question.
They all looked shocked as he entered the room."You finally came," Jason said, breaking the silence."Aiden, oh my goodness. I can believe it," Vera said. She stood up and hugged him. Her eyes were almost teary as she stared at him. "Get another plate, please." She told the maids."I thought you were not coming," Jason said with a smile, but Aiden knew he was teasing him. He did not bother to say a word; he just sat beside Liam, gazing at Amelia, who was looking so uncomfortable. He only took his eyes off her when Jason added. "It seems Aiden also couldn't get enough of your beauty, Amelia. He seems lost."Amelia was so embarrassed. Jason was making everything worse for her, and the other two people in the room weren't helping either. They chuckled as he made his jokes. She thought she would get swallowed by the ground. But luckily for her, it didn't happen. Liam came to her rescue. "It's okay now, Jason. You can do this after eating.She finally eased up a bit, but she kept looking
She looked at the gate as the guards pushed it open. Even though she had been here before and had seen the Luna before, she couldn't shake the nervous feeling in her.The car drove into the compound and stopped in front of the house. She got out of the car after a man standing at the end of the grand entrance stairs walked up to her and opened the door. "Good evening, my lady.""Good evening. Thank you." She felt uncomfortable, but she bowed her head and smiled."Welcome, young master." The man faced Jason, who had also gotten out of the car and walked up to them."Good evening, Robert. Is dinner ready?" Jason asked with a smile, to which the man also smiled back. "Yes. Let's go in."As if it wasn't embarrassing enough, Jason stretched his hand to her and smiled. "Let's go, my lady."She sighed inwardly. She could have easily rejected his hand, but she had no choice. The heels wouldn't allow her to do that unless she wants to embarrass herself more.The house loomed before her, its ex
Jason took her home. He had informed her that the luna invited her for dinner in the pack’s house and she had to be there. It was not enough getting a threat note. Now she would go to the pack's house to have dinner with the luna. She was about to go in when she spun around. It was as if Jason also knew she wanted to say something. He got out of the car. "I'm sorry, but is there a way to refuse this? I'm not feeling well." She said, smiling lightly, but stopped when Jason was just looking at her. Suddenly, he placed a hand on her forehead. "Are you sure? You don't look sick. Maybe we should go see Liam, then?" He turned around to enter the car, but Amelia quickly stopped him. "No. I didn't... it just... she couldn't complete her words when she heard Jason chuckle. She felt embarrassed, and she had to look away from him."You don't have to be scared. It's just dinner." Amelia gave him a nod, even though she wasn’t fully convinced.Jason left, and she walked into the house. She wante
He knotted his tie as he looked at himself through the mirror. He noticed his undereyes were a bit puffy. He couldn't sleep well after he overcame his tipsy state last night. He kept thinking about Amelia's face throughout the night. "I must be going crazy," He whispered. All of a sudden, his phone rang, and it was his mother. "Good morning, Mother." He said."Aiden. Good morning. How was your night?"He heard her ask. He could sense her happiness through her voice. And he knew it was something he wouldn't like. "What do you want, mother?" He asked."Come for dinner tonight. Your brothers will also be coming.""I'm busy, mother. I can't make it." He said it with a tone of exhaustion."Don't give me that again, Aiden. It's just dinner." Aiden heard, but he did not say a word. It has been a long time since he did all those kinds of things. Having dinner in the pack's house. "Ok, fine... inform Amelia about the dinner. Jason will pick her up." He didn't give it a second before he aske
After Patricia left, she also went to her room. To her, it was still early to sleep. She lay on her bed for hours, thinking. "I have a wolf, and now it's leaving me. Just nice." Even though she would have the chance to continue school, she couldn't help but feel Patricia's suggestion might not work.She rolled on the bed many times, but she couldn't sleep. It was almost midnight when she left her room to get water in the kitchen. As she walked out of her room, she realized the lights were already dimmed. It was not too dark for her to walk.She managed to walk down the stairs, but as she was about to go towards the kitchen, she felt a strange thing in the sitting room. It was a strange feeling as if someone were sitting there and staring at her. She felt strange chills run through her body. She couldn't run, nor could she say a word. Her phone was with her, and she couldn't press it.She was so scared, thinking a thief might have entered the house. Not once did she think it might be a
He sat in his office going through a file while his assistant stood in front of him. "It seems you're tired of your job, Eric. How could you keep making the same mistakes?" He asked as he dropped the file back on the table."I'm sorry I... Eric couldn't finish his word because they heard a ruckus coming from behind the door. He looked back at Aiden before walking swiftly towards the door to check who it is.As he opened the door and stepped out, immediately he was pushed back in by Mark, who entered the room."Alpha Aiden. How have you been?" He asked with a smile as he entered the room, but Eric tried to stop him. "Let go of me! Do you know who I am?!" He screamed at Eric, but still, the guy didn't pay attention to that. He was more focused on sending him out before the alpha would get angry.Aiden motioned for Eric to leave him. "You never listen, do you? You still have the guts to come into my office.""Are you angry at me? I thought you would like my gift. Looks like you didn't."
