I felt a hush fall over the cold night, you could hear a pin drop; it felt that silent and I was suddenly too scared to even breathe loudly.Their scent wafted to me, my mouth inducing metallic taste as at their intoxicating scent.Was I sure of this, the idea of meeting up with him just so he knows I have not in the slightest missed him or desire to be in his arms all this while, that was a fallacy, it wasn't true and I know it?'Please, please don't do this.' I begged my wolf tears rolling down my eyes I dropped to the ground at my very feet clutching tight, I was grateful Moon wasn't there to witness me breaking down earlier as we came along the elevator I stopped by on the floor that leads to Jade apartment and begged her, even though there were fidgety in her voice she couldn't possibly reject me and she knows I was being earnest enough with her."Fine, just two hours, I have to get my gas refilled." She said with a disgruntled glare."Sure, I promised I won't chop into your prec
Dejected I whisked my drunken arse to the door, I didn't realize until I tried my keys and they didn't work, pounding on the door in Jade's apartment I was stuttering on my feet."Open up." I let out as my fist knocked on her door. She opened the door and like a pole without support, I almost fell onto her."What is wrong with you, fuck sake you're drunk and reek of alcohol." She was fazed enough that if she could vouch for anyone she definitely would for me, I hadn't had a snippet of drink even when she'd drink in my presence I wouldn't dare try it was my muse, and I found great pleasure in staying chaste."Oh fuck, I fucken saw a man, there he was, the man I liked a lot." I sounded slurry, my voice was heavy and that surely wasn't coming out of my mouth. She stared at me, mixing lime and honey in the kitchen to sober up, just hearing that I was getting too loud to wake Moon. She quickly darted for the door and slowly jammed it."You're so wasted, I'm glad you know your way home." Ja
Sipping the coffee after I resolved that I would just head over and meet Luna of the sunju pack and whatever the outcomes I wouldn't hesitate to protect me and Moon, regularly, I would have to resolve it on a friendly note, maybe proposing a truce."Mommy, where are we going?" She pinned the trim of my undergarment as she stared at me, I crouched before her and feigned a smile."We're going to see a friend, darling." Convincing enough to her skimpy mind I bedded a kiss on her forehead.Ever the innocent woman I was not aware of the burning gaze that followed us, watching our every movement. Nor did I fathom the thought that ran through my mind.I was completely unaware, especially of their unruly intent of undressing me right then and there.I held Moon close to my chest feeling her heartbeat against my chest and hid her face from the oblivious, it was a way I needed, stepping into the cab, not again, her text came through and the cab wasn't so a random one, they were sent solely to a
It was awesome how morning comes softly and you glance through the door, and see the Alpha that his words cut through you, preparing breakfast and when least expected he was a having company, seems like a fairy tale three of us under the same roof and Moon had already befriended him."You're awake just on time." He said bringing the hot food to the dining table. His house was big and elaborate, I wouldn't expect him to have lived in such a great fort in Vienna or was it over the years that things have changed?"Wow," I muttered seeing the classic artwork on the wall, "You have a nice place here," I commented, strolling towards the kitchen door with a kink on my face."Hmm, thanks." He muttered, Moon ran towards me and hugged me. I had awakened. Finally, I teased, peeking inside the pot to check what he might be cooking that had such an aroma."About last night—" I wanted to bring it up."Why don't we skip that yet, it's too beautiful a morning to dwell on yesterday." He let out a sm
Just as I turned to leave, his door unlocked. I went inside with my hand folded into a fist and he stood there, his torso bare, just ready to go into the shower."Oh fuck smudge at it, not again," I muttered to myself, averting my gaze from his abs-built body."Sorry I didn't mean to intrude." His gaze flickered to be questionable, my thick saliva propelled down my throat as I gulped it hard.Head held high and I hastened out of the room with my face red, it would have been okay if I just stayed without going in when I knocked, I turned around and nearly smacked into someone's chest.'What the fuck!' My wolf muttered, my inside sent into a pool of boiling water and my heart was pounding against my chest from the aftermath of my encounter.I can assume my visages were engrossed unto the eyes of the broad-shouldered figure that held me from stumbling over, his eyes were the colour of liquid honey and at the moment they were set directly into mine, lost in them somehow."You nearly—" He
"No, you tell me why you left me," Andrea said, his eyes already drowsy and I was almost at the same peak as him. Both of us have engaged in massive drinking."I didn't leave you, you never cared about me, because I became the daughter of the man you hated." I said and he pointed his gaze at me, that term seemed to have seeped him in."And that of my father's mate." I spurred, taking another shot, my face twitched into displeasure, the tank in my stomach almost bulging from the continual consumption only if I realised I'm narcissistic.It was a complicated relationship we shared, and I was fully aware of the fact our coming together was just infatuation at the back of my memory."It wasn't intentionally, Lucia seeing that marking on you only hurt my feelings, when I learned that Ramanov was your father I beamed with joy but the revelation after I couldn't happen to bear it." He let out, glad to know he had his vantage point, which was the fact that my mother made life hard for him, bi
"Where are you going?" Alpha Andrea questioned."Probably to get fresh air and tend to some things, the garden got my nose." I let out smirking, he looked down and had his lower part wrapped in between the sheets."Alright, you can go." He said briskly."Who said I couldn't go?" I snapped holding my hand apologetically to my chest."You can't possibly leave me like this," he suggested with a growl.I snickered at him, "maybe next time," I'm sure this won't be the last time he would the same shit.I headed back to my room feeling as though my day had been eventful, I didn't want to be reeking of his scent for long, it would make me want to go over to him and maybe start from where I stopped."Wait did he think I was drunk so that he could make his way, never ready to give up, huh.""Somehow I enjoyed his pressure but you teasing him left him in a lull, not the type of breakfast he sought." My wolf said mockingly, she felt happy we led Andrea on."Oooh," I cooed, reaching to pick one of
"You're nothing special, why did you have to show up now after all these years?" Fiona questioned, wearing a face that was dung into hate.I sighed in disgust."You shouldn't be asking me that, I thought the crescent pack, as well as the blood moon pack, only have one trajectory, staying hidden among the woods, what brought you to civilization?"She let out an annoying scoff, just when things were about to scuttle up I let out a laugh and embraced her. I might be mad at her but I wouldn't mind avoiding all the chaos possible."What with the sudden hug?" She muttered and I pressed her more.Alpha should know I didn't care more about his kinky affair least to his Luna, I would just be a barking dog without a fang."I am using this medium to apologise for all I have said and wish you a happy married life, old friend." She is already an old friend and nothing more, she stabbed me and lied about herself hiding her true motive, which was my mate.After what felt like hours of silent terror,
"You can't be doing this, Fiona." Lola's voice cuts in but is hit by a stick with a nod from Fiona to the Beta soldier. Alpha Andrea came down staring at her. "You can't leave me for Lucia, she took everything I have ever worked hard for, understand me please..." She shook her head pleadingly and then exploded into bursts of laughter. "You felt that? Pathetic." She said, I pinned her hand to let me go and clutched onto Alpha Andreas' hands. "Please find her, find Moon, I can stand the pressure," I said as she continued with her pulling, she threw me to the floor once again. She rushed towards him and hugged him from behind. He pulled her away and walked himself out. "You can't find her, Andrea, even with your Alpha strength, my Lycans would love to have a taste of your breed, no more are they within these walls." She shouted after him, her voice filled with satisfaction, and Alpha Andrea's face twitched. His fist balling by his side, his eyes shimmering. He moved his steps towards
My head was buried in his shoulder as I cried my pitiful self out. No return or sound from Alpha Andrea, he was in the same dilemma as me. The fact that I have done the same thing again, keeping the truth from him. Hidden the very seed of his from him. It wasn't my fault either, he chose this, the fact that he rejected me and made me look useless as a mate, despite what we shared over his insecurities, the truth he conceived."Aren't I being selfish, that moment with Alpha Andrea inside there and I saw the revelation that no matter how hard I try, the nemesis would crawl its way in." My voice became thick with phlegm as I pushed to the limit of letting the word out."You're right but it's never too late, you protected her from the outside world and that meant you did what is right you protected your child, Alpha Andrea's child." He rubbed my back and assured me."No! I deprived him of the right of becoming a father to his daughter and that was greedy of me.""You ain't think he could
"So Lucia, how is the preparation, I can't wait to attend your nuptials," Fiona said as she dungs her fork into the pastries and rolled some.Her face was shimmering with satisfaction and some feeling of insecurities, she sat like that for a while and said nothing afterwards, her gaze flickered observant of her environment. I can feel my wolf anxiety flooding my head, maybe I shouldn't have let out that I was getting married soon, and to one other than Matt.Not replying to her Matt simply observed the environment and raised the ketchup apples more onto the French fries and Alpha Andrea was observing the atmosphere between us. Matt made it seem real, our little decoy to let them think we were not there otherwise."Oh, I guess you had put a lot of effort into making this." Taking a bite of the chicken, which tasted great, I complimented."Oh is that so? Thanks for the compliment, although it should be directed to Grace, she is such an amazing cook." A grin formed on her face. "And she
The drive through the road got quite eerie, whiffs of creatures were coming through our paths unlike the last time we had left, it was cold and " What is with this strange scent?" I questioned Matt poaching my nose in the air, my eyes teaching around circularly and my hands clenched tight onto the seat.Matt drove as fast as he could to get us out of the eeriness, had the place turned into a slaughterhouse or was it just filled with a bizarre scent."I think the Lycans are still around or maybe there was a fight between rogues." He suggested even thou his theory was not tenable enough. I cleaned my temple, with my hand checking if my eyes were still swollen as I stressed my head into the phone screen."Don't worry, it's not too obvious that you had crude the soul out of yourself.""You sure about that?" I placed it on my lap as I pulled my cascading hair into a doughnut and tired it out neatly."That's not good, so they kill themselves and make sure Lola is safe within the walls of t
Stepping inside I watched him from afar, he was having her dressed up and Lola's eyes were dark red on my path tearing me with her gaze that was a mix of what she felt towards me; pathetic."You're being stubborn again Lucia." She said as I tiptoed, and later cleared my throat, Matt looked at me and didn't say anything but inside he had a hope that I had learnt to accept my true self and do what is right, even when I doubt myself, maybe I should give it a shot."Crying won't bring your friend back, but staying strong and doing all you can to protect what you love would make him proud of you in the land of the spirits." Lola stood up and walked towards the stacked book on the field, somehow the part of the house reminded me of the alchemist's thousands of books, on average he could finish three to four."I know but it's the least I could do, he deserves more than just my tears." "Oh is that so? Your voice is determined,""Yes, my voice is determined because I want to know what killed
I paced myself through the staircase leaving Matt in the room, he wanted to stop me but I was way ahead of him outside. He sighed and returned to the room knowing that Moon got her eyes on him and was hungry he just left me to my emotional damage and tended to her needs, by serving her the food."Lola, it's not true is it?" I questioned standing before her, my eyes widened and reddened from the tears that had pooled out of them the instant Matt handed over the necklace that belonged to Collins, the sharp lights from outside reflecting in the room made me cover my eyes, boggy and swollen, they had a piercing effect sharp like a claw on it that hurt my eyes. Lola peered into my eyes leaving her knitting and letting the fact that we had just had ourselves hurt moments ago slide, she whisked her away from the grand seat, large it was, it looked like a double sitter, but wasn't completely one, maybe it's because it's an old model I couldn't figure the design, tailor-made like, not possibl
I wish I can wake up to a whole new world and I don't have to worry about rogues and some feverish Lunas alike."People are gonna think you're crazy, Lucia." Matt let out as the car came to a stop in front of a mansion, "They would still follow, this isn't a secret place, Matt." I reminded him that the small castle ain't gonna save us. And amidst all in isolation with an Omega that would be in my dreams."Calm down, breath in breath out." He made a motion with his breath and I mimicked him calming my pulsating impulses. "Good, I'm sure you would be safe here Lucia."Just as he was giving me an assurance, the gate creaked open with a long wailing sound, it felt like the old mansion had been put to exile, old rugged and intended to, the water was pulling out neatly and I was petrified, first Alpha Andrea Mansion in the middle of nowhere and now this place, the aura I felt were far from the ordinary. Might be enchanted.How strange…"Are you sure about this place?" I questioned looking
"You're nothing special, why did you have to show up now after all these years?" Fiona questioned, wearing a face that was dung into hate.I sighed in disgust."You shouldn't be asking me that, I thought the crescent pack, as well as the blood moon pack, only have one trajectory, staying hidden among the woods, what brought you to civilization?"She let out an annoying scoff, just when things were about to scuttle up I let out a laugh and embraced her.
