Leila raised her brows. Something about him?Her eyes stared at him. She was curious."What's that?"He did not know how he would tell her he was not human. He dropped his gaze."I'm not human."He could not look into her eyes. He did not why he was telling her now, when the atmosphere was cozy, and food was set on the dining table. Something was pushing him to tell her now. He knew sooner or later she would find out about him.She was silent.He sighed deeply. Why was she silent? Couldn't she take it? Was she too shocked to believe?He shifted his gaze to her face. She was eating.He was stunned. His eyes narrowed. He could not believe she was eating when he had told her he was not human."Oh my Goodness. This is so delicious. Hmmm. Yummy."Leila praised his culinary skills.David did not why she wasn't surprised. Did she already know he's not human? Who told her? Many questions raced through his mind.Leila did not know why he was staring at her for long. She enjoyed the meal."You
David's eyes widened."A wolf?"He embraced her warmly. He would be here to always protect her.No harm would come to her. He would keep her safe.Leila felt safe in his arms. She couldn't have imagined being alone. She was grateful David was here with her.Fear would have gripped her mightily, and she would not be able to go back to sleep.Just then when she was about to doze off, she caught a glimpse of a memory.David was in her memory. But it was very blurry. She shut her eyes.She felt a pounding headache when she tried to force herself to remember. She failed.She could not remember anything."What's wrong with me?"Why was David in her memory? Why was it so messed up?"Have we met before?"She asked him. Her voice trembled.David whose eyes were widely opened all this while, cleared his throat."Do you also believe in a past life, before this life? Something like reincarnation?"Probably they could have met in their past life, and they had just reincarnated.Leila furrowed her b
Leila did not understand him at all. What was all this about?She gazed at him."Yes. We are not human. We are a werewolf. Werewolf exists."Leila furrowed her brows at him. Did he also believe that werewolves existed?She rolled her eyes. She would have known how to handle this if it came from Jane but it's from an adult?She started at him. "Will you say vampires are real too?"She laughed.It was very funny of him to say that. Leila did not believe he believed in the existence of werewolves.Just then Collins began to change.She cringed. His fangs had started to grow. The color of his eyes had changed too.His face had become hairy. He bore a resemblance to a wolf.Fear gripped Leila. Her eyes narrowed. Was she dreaming again?Her eyes fluttered. She watched Collins change back to his former self."I'm sorry. I had to make you believe me."Leila's mouth opened. She was speechless."Leila. Say something."She'd been in a complete daze."Am I still alive? Or am I dreaming?"She brok
Her heart rammed against her chest.She clutched her chest and retraced her step to the bedroom.She could still remember what the message was.'I know where you live Leila, I know your family. I will make sure you lose your family. Then you will die right before me."She could not forget something like that so quickly.She had been having terrible nightmares recently. She had lost Scarlet, James, and Janes in a dream, she did not want to lose them in reality.She did not want either of them dead. The message had scared her a great deal. Who could be after their life?The person knew her name. What if something had happened to the children and Scarlet now?She quickly slid out of bed to check on the children. They were still sleeping. She heaved a sigh of relief when she realized they were safe.She went to Scarlet's bedroom. She did not find her inside. Panic thrilled her deepest psyche.It was as though her world just crumbled. "Scarlet!!"She rushed to the kitchen. She did not find
Scarlet raised her brows. What did David had to do with this?"He wanted me to leave David."Leila was not sure if it was a man or a woman. She did not care. This person was threatening them.Scarlet did not get her. She needed an explanation."He meant, 'leave David.' The unknown person knows about our relationship, and did not want us together."Leila dropped her gaze.The only option for her was to break up with David.She pressed her eyes with the heels of her palm. What would she do?She stared into Scarlet's eyes.Her eyes were asking her what to do.All this did not make any sense to Scarlet. She still did not get what David had to do with all this. Was he also called Alpha?"Are you sure that is what he wants?"Scarlet wanted her to be sure.Leila nodded affirmatively. She knew it was a tough decision for her to make.She loved David as much as she loved her family. She would do the right thing.She pursed her lips and shut her eyes.Scarlet felt her pain. She did not want thi
David furrowed his brows. He tilted his head. Had he come to the wrong house?He brought out his phone and dialed a number.The door creaked open.The bodyguard stood with his feet shoulder-width apart.He firmly gripped the pistol, her index finger visibly resting outside the trigger guard."Welcome sir!"He greeted David. He had thought it was someone else.He quickly hid the pistol.David did as if he had not seen him with the pistol. He was doing his job perfectly. He walked into the living room.Leila sighed when she saw that it was him. They had thought it was the unknown person.She hugged him passionately.Scarlet slumped down on the sofa and dropped the knife in her hand.Her heart was still beating fast. When would all this stop?She had thought David was the unknown person, so she shut the door in his face and ran back inside.It was her first time seeing him."I'm sorry."David nodded his head. "It's fine."He understood."David. Meet Scarlet, my sister."Leila introduced
She felt a spark within her as she touched him.His face tightened, as though an invisible force was pulling at his skin.His eyes started to change. His pupils elongated, taking on a distinct, wolf-like shape.The change continued as the bones in his face began to shift and reshape themselves.His skin sprouted a layer of coarse, dark fur, starting from his cheeks and spreading rapidly across his entire face.His teeth grew and sharpened, morphing into menacing fangs that now jut out from his mouth.Leila had never seen this side of him. Waves of emotions swept over her. Memories flickered through her head.As she closed her eyes, memories came alive in her visualizations. The memories were vivid mow.She saw David in her memory. She was in his arms. The silvery moonlight cast a mystical aura on the sand, she felt the texture beneath her supple toes.But everything went blank again. She could not see anything again.She opened her eyes. David's face had changed. He now looked like a
Her eyes fluttered. He opened wide her thighs.She felt her stomach stiffened like a board as he teased her clit with his tongue.His tongue touched her hidden places.She shivered with pleasure and clenched the duvet cover.She was damn wet. She felt the warmth of his mouth between her thighs. She gasped. Her breath was heavy.His hand fondled her breast. She moaned with pleasure and whispered his name.He slid his tongue into her mouth. Their tongues entwined. She almost couldn't breathe.He stopped. His tongue became numb in her mouth.He sniffed.It wasn't coming from Leila. It was the scent of a werewolf, and it was coming from the living room.He knew he had a visitor.His eyes were on her. His gaze was sharp as nails. He did not know who the visitor was.Leila inclined her head toward his. She wanted him to continue."Don't stop."She whispered against his lips. Her eyes stared at his lips.She took his lips in her mouth.He allowed her to take control. His mind was elsewhere.
The soft, white sand stretched as far as the eye could see, and the rhythmic sounds of crashing waves provided a soothing backdrop for the joyous occasion.David and Leila would be celebrating their love on a picturesque beach.The beach was beautifully adorned with delicate white and pastel-colored flowers, carefully placed to enhance the natural beauty of the surroundings. A romantic arch, intricately woven with cascading blooms, served as the focal point for the ceremony. Gauzy white curtains billowed gently in the coastal breeze, creating an ethereal atmosphere.Rows of comfortable seating, decorated with flowing ribbons and flower petals, awaited the arrival of their beloved guests.It was a beautiful day for both Leila and David. Leila was adorned in a stunning white gown, gently gliding down the aisle, Scarlet took her arms as they walked side by side.Her eyes were locked on David, the man she cherished and would spend the rest of her life with. It was the best moment, seeing
Leila's heart raced with excitement as she strolled hand-in-hand with David through a romantic park on a cold night.David held her hands and began."You complete me. Your smile awakens me, making me want to burst open...you are my strength and weakness. Without you, my life is meaningless."Tears glistened in Leila's eyes. A warm blush rose to her cheek. She felt a surge of ecstasy washed over her.She loved him so much too. Her eyelids fluttered.She gasped. She wrapped her hands around him and kissed him like it would be her last."I love you so so much."As they walked along a moonlit path, Leila saw a soft glow in the distance. Curiosity lit up her eyes as they reached an open area of the park, revealing a breathtaking sight: a dark sky illuminated with bursts of colorful fireworks dancing in the air which said,'will you marry me?'Leila wasn't sure she had seen it. She wasn't dreaming.She was amazed. Her eyes lit up."Oh my goodness! David, did you see that?"She turned her he
David ran down the stairs."See who's here."Rebecca cringed when she saw David.David sighed and removed his hands from his pocket. He was not expecting to see her.Leila knew Rebecca stayed with Collins and also lost her baby. David had told her all about it."I know you've learned your lesson. I hold no grudges against you."Leila meant what she said. Rebecca just had to start doing the right thing from now on.David furrowed his brows at Rebecca. She should thank her stars she did the right thing. If she had not come to apologize, he would have come for her.Ryan gazed at Rebecca. Her eyes were begging Leila and David. Ryan had intentionally let her in.She had to apologize to Leila for everything she did to her. Leila deserved all the apologies.Now that Ryan gazed intently at her, she was not on her knees. How could she be standing and apologizing?Ryan made her knelt. He pressed her down.He then winked at her. That was the right way to apologize."You can leave now. I will for
Scarlet, Thomas, and James came in with bouquets in their hands and wide smiles on their faces.Leila was ecstatic. Scarlet and Thomas looked like a couple when they stood side by side.They hugged. Scarlet was glad to see Leila. She meant the whole world to her.James had grown tall.They all had a lengthy conversation, giggling and laughing.It was all Leila needed at that moment. Their enemy was no more, it was everything to Leila.Now, she didn't have to sleep in fear. She had always worried herself out, doubting if everything would be alright in the end.She was glad her mind had found peace now.It was over.Thomas and James later took their leave. Scarlet stayed back, she had a lot to discuss with Leila."I know."Scarlet began.Leila did not get her. What did she know?"I know about Collins and David."Leila still did not get her. She wondered what it was she knew about Collins and David."Someone by the name.....Anna. Yes, Anna. She explained everything to me."Leila gazed in
He shoved it inside his mouth."Eat your eye! You evil bastard."He spat it out, moaning.Collins felt the World closing in on him. He muttered,"I hate you."He cackled softly. He would come again for Leila even after death. He would haunt her in her dreams and become her nightmare.David drove a sharp dagger into his mouth. He pulled it out and stabbed him all over the face.After he had destroyed his face, he unsheathed a silver dagger and drove it into Collins's chest.TWO DAYS LATEREverything felt like a dream to Leila. Her eyes snapped open.She didn't feel weak or felt any pain in any part of her body.She easily slid out of bed and made her way through the hallway to the living room. She had no idea what was happening.She was stunned at the sight that greeted her in the living room.She gaped.Anna saw her first."Leila."The rest of the werewolf family were having a discussion, they had not seen Leila quickly.Anna rushed toward her."How do you feel? Is your jaw stretching?
Tears streamed down her face.She had begun to feel nauseous. Something was pulling her from the inside.She wondered if that was her inner wolf. Her eyes widened. She had no idea what it would look like for her to change into a werewolf.She was sure she had been infected by Collins. A bite alone meant something."It's almost getting dark. I will begin the first phase of the honeymoon. The first phase of the honeymoon would be before we wed and the second phase would be after we have wedded. When it's full moon."Leila had not been listening the whole time. Her mind was occupied with the thought of changing into a werewolf.Collins didn't care if she was listening or not. He had come a long way. He could not wait to start the first phase of his honeymoon.He stripped her off.Leila was gobsmacked."What? What are you doing?"She was left only with her undies. She tried to break free from the chair she had been bound to.She was screaming.Collins did not stop. He fondled her breast a
Anna was sure Valerie had seen something."If you had seen the innocent Collins, you would feel pity for him. I thought it was cruel of Valerie to say that. I was angry.""You didn't ask her why she said you could kill if need be?"Anna asked Silas."She said I would know if the time comes."Silas answered and continued."I flared up and told her she shouldn't have adopted him if she could not show him care and love. Our parents didn't raise us to be cruel."David didn't say anything. He was just listening attentively. He knew Silas was going somewhere."I raised Collins. He was a sweet boy, I thought he would be aggressive. It baffled me I didn't see anything strange about his behavior."He paused and continued."My anger at Valerie intensified. I thought she said all those mean things about Collins because she didn't want to take responsibility for him. Some weeks later, Valerie divorced her husband and moved to California with her new lover."David had now become impatient. Silas w
She meant it."If David had not caught us, I would have slapped your dirty face. You have no shame!"She spat. He disgusted her.Collins exhaled deeply."Well, there's nothing you can do about it. If you do not want me, I want you. Jane would not have died if you did what asked you to do.""Get my niece's name out of your decaying mouth.""Should I brief you on how she died?"His lips curved into a smile."I also bound her to the same chair you are currently bound to. She begged me to take her out of this creepy place. She cried for her mummy and Aunt."Leila stared dagger at him. If eyes could kill, hers could have killed Collins by now."She was scared, she hugged me, I had no other choice. When I thought of you and David fucking, it made my heart bleed, and there was no room for mercy."He paused. He bent over Leila. He wanted her to hear what he was about to say clearly."I drove the knife into her left eye first."His breath brushed her face. Leila was shaking. She wanted to brea
They knew they deserved no mercy because they failed to do their job.David opened his eyes. He exhaled deeply."Collins is the devil behind all this. Get your things and disperse. We are hunting him down."He was sure they understood he meant weapons when he told them to get their things.They all looked at themselves with wide eyes. How was that possible?"Collins?"Ryan asked. He was lost. He wanted to be sure David had not mentioned the wrong name."Yes. I found out...he deceived us all."Scarlet was sure she had not misheard him. How could he be spewing nonsense?"What?"She moved closer to him and gazed at his face. Was he sure of what he was saying at all?David knew it would be hard for everyone to believe. Collins had the most innocent face that concealed his darkest heart.He slipped his hand into his back pocket and brought out Jane's journal.He handed it over to her. Scarlet collected it. She wondered where he saw it. Thomas had given the journal to Jane as a birthday gif
