One night, at full moon, Armiz unexpectedly called me and though I hated visiting his territory due to those blood thirsty wolves, I came nonetheless.To Crimson Soul, the bloodthirsty pack of the community. I am the Alpha of the Crimson Heart. Our names were entwined like our undesirable fates.After what happened with Eliana, Jake also joined his pack and had been resenting me since then.I was waiting for Armiz until Jake came and took a seat.“Oh, hey, now your hopelessness led you here too?” He taunted delightfully.A wide smirk of relief plastered on his features all because I couldn’t have ‘my’ woman.“How desperately are you going to search for her, Denzel?”He sneered, testing my patience simply by existing here.Yet I tried to respond calmly, “I will use all my remaining breaths to find her,”“You know what, Denzel?” Spreading a vile smirk, he leaned forward to whisper at my face, his deepest wish.“I pray your mate vanishes just like my sister did,” “Curse your foul tong
ELIANA’S POV:-“Get up, you two! The bus will be here any time!” Shouting, I rushed into preparing my son’s lunchbox, preparing it, knowing they were extremely tardy in the morning.Since they just started their school, we were getting used to time management.“I swear, you will become the reason for my insanity one day. These two will drive me mad,” ‘Ah, how much my life has changed…’After breakfast and lunch, I wiped my hands, checking the time constantly before rushing upstairs to see my sons.“Matthew, Anthony! Boys! Get up!”They were sitting on the bed, eyes closed but thankfully had freshened up and worn their uniform too.I sighed in relief, grabbing the brush to set their hair perfectly while their silver eyes were staring at me, reminding me of their father most of the time.They were patient and good kids, which I never recalled being one, probably like him but I couldn’t care less about it.“Good Lord, going to school for the past two months but still not used to it,” “
‘Why was he there? What did he want from me?’Now I understand these feelings. My mate was here and his entry was marked by those uncontrollable sensations.I forgot about those feelings in the past years and now it was revived when he was before me with that stone-cold posture which called for nothing but apprehension.My sapphire eyes narrowed.“No…” Strength deprived my body as a miserable voice escaped my lips when the one with ruthless silver eyes locked his predatory gaze.I trembled, holding my dress when hard features were magnified by a bewitching smirk.Resting his elbow on the doorframe and a perfectly raised eyebrow.“Indeed,”In a white shirt with perfectly rolled sleeves and two buttons opened and black pants. Perfectly combed pitch-black hair to show he came prepared.“Long time no see, Darling,” My heart skipped a beat madly.My mind was dizzy as being incapable of grasping further distress. My head was throbbing as I didn’t move an inch when resting his hand in h
DENZEL’S POV:-‘How could I allow my heart to leave the one I had been praying for all these years?’ I thought, watching her unconscious in my arms.If she thought I would let her go then I was gravely mistaken, I won’t create the merest distance between us anymore.‘She was supposed to exist here, right next to me.’And I would ensure this fact would be etched on the skylines.Gripping her shoulders firmly when he passed out, I made her incline her body towards me so it could rest and lifted my gaze towards the stairs.The boys, my… sons. The thought alone made my heart race yet keeping a straight face, knowing they were scared due to our confrontation, I called them softly. “If you are done peeking then come out,”“Did she faint?” They asked vaguely, getting down slowly.“Yes, but, I swear, I didn’t do anything, you saw, and heard me,” They narrowed their eyes as I loosened my shoulders and made an upsetted face, almost scared about it.“Was it because of me?”“No, she was tired
ELIANA’S POV:-Probably fainting due to exhaustion and the amount of stress thrown over my head, I woke up with a throbbing pain on my head the next morning as well.Denzel’s words and his intentions were frightening me but by all means, I would never go to Kyle.Not this time. I would run away, hide, fight until my last ounce of strength for my boy and my betterment, I won’t return to him- Leaving the undesirable option to go with Denzel.“Argh, my head,” Groaning, I sat up.Massaging my head to subdue the pain before getting out, freshening up and coming down only to find Denze awake.He was using phone, lying on the couch but sat up with a smile when I came.“Hey, how are you now?”“What do you expect after giving me such terrible news?” I muttered rudely.I could no longer believe in that psycho smile. Who knows what he had become or could do.“I can make a cup of coffee for us,”“No need. This is my house,” I muttered.“Fine. Make me a cup too then,” He shrugged. Noticing the
Upstairs, to forget the confrontation I had with Denzel, I decided to get my boys ready today myself.“Mama, is he really our father?” Matthew asked innocently.To their question, everything that just happened flashed before my eyes and I found myself so weak and quiet temporarily.Staring into the abyss as to speak a simple ‘yes’ was too hard. Our illicit bond, me being forced to marry Kyle, the torment, distances and when I thought we became one.He created unrestorable distances between us. “He keeps saying he is. He ordered a pizza for us too and helped me with our homework and put us to sleep,” Anthony smiled, setting his tie before returning with a grin that dried my throat to anticipate that I would go back to the hell I ran from.“I don’t think he is bad, is he?” “Yes… he is your… father,” Exhaling, not wanting to hear them discussing it further but they seemed pleased to hear it, with glowing faces, Anthony asked.“Is he down stairs?” “Yes,” The second they heard it, t
DENZEL’S POV:-After convincing my mate and sons to come along, my deepest desire was finally fulfilled as I took them back.Back to the place where they all belonged.A victorious smirk lingered on my lips, delighted to have them so near me while Eliana was anything but exhilarated. “We are here,”“I know, I am not here for the first time,” She replied rudely.Of course she was not pleased judging from what I had become, a murderer and seeing her wrath, Armiz must have told her what I used to be.Else why would he constantly consider me a killer and avoid me? “Are you going to keep that face?” I asked, glancing at Eliana who rolled her eyes.“I am here temporarily,”“We will see,”I didn’t want this vile shadow on my family either but the path of return had perished for me.“Boys, wake up. We are here,” I called, gesturing to Eliana to wake them up when we arrived. Yawning they both woke up, even this habit of sleeping in a car was mine, habitually, we were too much alike. “Are w
“What the…?” Her jaw dropping and the apprehension she suppressed so far began to emerge on her face frantically.“Fuck, what does he want now?”“Eliana, nothing will happen, calm down,”And it pierced my heart to perceive what that monster did to her to engrave such an unshakable dread in her.“No.. no..”Pulling away from me hastily, she pressed herself on the railing.“Eliana, listen, stop,”“I won’t go to him, I shouldn’t have come here,” Shaking her head in denial with a tear shining in those beautiful blue eyes.Holding her elbow strictly, I forced to link our gazes to etch the thought that in my presence, she was safe.“I am here, do you not trust me?” “I am scared… I-I can’t see him,” She confessed weakly.Her distress, this anguish, it served as a scar, reminding me how much of a terrible choice it was to force her to marry Kyle.…In those teary eyes- I saw all my regrets.‘What did I do to her? I am sorry, my darling, I failed…’How dare he… I swear I would make him pay f
