RISSA'S POV"Drax!" I called out in the morning when I woke up."Help me find him." I tapped on Lily to wake up. She rolled around on the floor and continued sleeping."Come on. We need to find him." I nudged her again."Why do we need to find him? He's a grown man." She said with sleepy eyes."We can't lose him. We need to keep a close eye on him so that we won't lose him Incase he turns into a wolf and goes on a rampage." I explained to her.She seemed reluctant, but she eventually got up and joined me to search. After searching for some time, Lily slowly moved closer to me and whispered in my ear. "Is that what we're looking for?" Lily looked terrified after she peeked behind a bush.I took a peek too and noticed it was Drax's wolf. He must have had a serious morning wood when he woke up today."Quick! Step back. Don't let him see you." I warned Lily. "Don't also make any sudden movements. If he notices us, we're dead." I whispered and stepped back a few steps.Lily matches my ste
DRAX'S POV"I developed Stockholm Syndrome." Lily continued."I stopped seeing him like a threat, and started believing that we were in love. Soon, we found other rogues that were in a similar situation with us, and then we formed a group." She said."So that's why I decided to tag along with you guys." She smiled. "I'm tired of living the same old boring life with Ryker. I want something different."I guess she must not have known that I knew about my uncle's excapades already, courtesy of my wolf's consciousness, Alef.Most of the information she gave about my uncle, my wolf had already told me two nights ago."...and I find traveling with a sexy Alpha to be the right kind of distraction I need right now." She winked at me seductively. I understand that she's naturally a flirty person, perhaps because of all those years she spent servicing Ryker."Can you not do that—please?" I told her with a straight face."What? I'm just kidding with you..." She said, playfully."Well, you're go
DRAX'S POVI quickly pulled the girls out of the open view to the back of the two-storey building."How on earth did they get here before us?" I looked around, and that was when I saw clearly our pictures were all over the town.There was a coffee shop next to the inn building that had glass walls in front of the building. I peeked into the shop and my eye caught the television hanging up on the wall.My heart banged as I saw what was being displayed on the screen.It was the news, and I and Rissa's pictures were boldly plastered on the screen, announcing us as dangerous fugitives.From what was being displayed on the news, it seemed like our bounty had been increased to twenty-five million dollars.I facepalmed as I realized our mistake. How could we have expected to find solace in a land that was also controlled by our enemy?My uncle has monopolized the media, the power... everything. He made the people poor, thereby making himself the richest person around here.So, I'm not surpri
RISSA'S POVAfter paying for the room, Lily and I went up to the room together.We were mostly quiet, as we were yet to establish any common ground between the both of us yet.Or could it be that I don't like her because of her flirty advances towards Drax?Maybe, I truly am in love with Drax and I'm threatened by her...*Thinking face*No, I most definitely am not in love with Drax.But hold on... I think I am.No, I'm not.I am.I'm not.I am.Fine!!! I scolded the voices fighting in my head, as I made one of the beds in the room—in preparation for a long awaited nights rest.I wouldn't say I'm "in-love" with him... He's just like a brother to m—Oh, who am I kidding?!I definitely have feelings for him. I just have to tell myself the truth. But unfortunately, the only person I can tell that truth is myself, and no one else. I can't even think it out loud. I mean, the possibility of that fantasy becoming a reality is extremely slim. It's just not possible.Although we're both rogues
DRAX'S POVThe next morning I woke up in a jolt, checking my surroundings to make sure I haven't gone on a rampage.Thankfully, I was still in human form.Before going to bed, I was worried about sleeping inside the room. Although I bolted the door, and closed all the windows, I'm pretty sure that if my wolf wanted to break down the door and rampage through the entire town, no one would be able to stop him. After I woke up, I got myself cleaned up, and then I put on my disguise and went down to the reception area to get some cups of coffee, scrambled eggs, and some buns for breakfast in a tray. The breakfast was purposely to let the girls know that I'm no longer mad at them after the stunt they pulled last night.I was so worried last night. I thought something bad had happened to her. Rissa is my responsibility, and if anything happened to her, I wouldn't forgive myself.Though their actions were dangerous and unreasonable, I just have to let go so we could move on. We have to come
RISSA'S POV"But how do we call someone we don't even know? We don't even have a number?""Oh, Shit!" Jack exclaimed.I think he must have realized that we don't even have a cell phone number to call, or even a cell phone."I think we'll have to secure a cell phone first, then find a way to reach the palace later." He added."Um, I don't know if it'll still work, but I still remember my mom's cellphone number—I used to memorize it then when I was little, since then it stuck to my brain. Maybe we could try it out." Lily shruggedDrax nodded his head slightly. "Alright. Let me get ready. We'll set out in ten minutes." He said, then he stood up with the empty cups in his hand and left the room.We all got dressed and converged downstairs with our disguises on."There's an electronics shop down the block. I think we might be able to obtain a phone from there. Lily, you're going to go in while we be on the lookout for you outside." Drax said."Let me do it." I jumped in.Drax looked at me
RISSA'S POV"I was scared mom..." Lily dropped the phone and wailed because she couldn't continue to go down memory lane. I felt the agony and despair in her tears.Drax picked up the phone and talked to Mrs Rebecca. "Hello, Mrs Rebecca... We need your help.""Is my Lily ok?" Mrs Rebecca asked."She's fine, ma'am. She's just feeling a little emotional right now. But we need you to do something for us. It's very important, and it may be the only chance you'll have in seeing your daughter again." Drax adviced.The environment went silent for a moment, then Drax continued. "We need you to be our eyes inside the palace. As you know, Alpha Damian has been a thorn in the flesh of all werewolves... So we need to find a way to take him down before he completely destroys the entire packs.Mrs Rebecca hesitated for a second, then she said to Drax. "How can I trust you?! The entire pack is looking for you. Why did you murder members of the pack? How can I be sure you're not the villain? How do I
DRAX'S POVAs far as I'm concerned, we're making progress. We didn't have the entire packs' on our side yet, but having a few friends who believes in me and who fights for the same cause as I do is really heart-warming.The fact that there are people who stand by me is a huge confidence boost. It makes me realize that I'm not just fighting for myself... But I'm fighting for every other person who has stood beside me in my weakness.There are people who look up to me and expect me to do something about the current state of the packs-- I cannot let them down.Not now when they need me the most. Not now when the people are in a state of despair and unrest."Uncle Bart, how is my brother?" I asked as I remembered one more person I wasn't going to let down. My baby brother, Asher.Bart sighed, and I immediately knew it was bad news. "Tell me!" I bellowed as I itched to know what my brother's state was."It's still the same old routine – only worse... Damian doesn't let him out of his room
Drax laughed, trying to steady himself on his feet. He wraps his hands around her curvy ass to hold her weight. The cool breeze brushes against their faces, making their hair flow in the wind’s direction. Rissa kisses him twice, on his forehead and on his lips. “I love you.” She says, with a smile. Drax blushed. “I love you more.” then he returns the kiss. She rests her head in the crook of his neck like a baby, and Drax carries her inside the building. As they reach the living room, he drops her on her feet, and they stare into each other’s eyes for a long minute. Drax raises his hand and caresses her cheek. Rissa leans forward and gives him a short, wet kiss. They pause for a moment, gazing into each other’s soul, then they draw closer and suck each other’s lips off. Drax nibbles on her upper lip, while Rissa plays with his lower lip. They kiss for a long time, then she feels his boner on her thigh. She purrs into his mouth. Eyes hooded, heavy breaths, he runs his hands over he
“Yes, Drax, I have feelings for you. I know it’s stupid and all, but you’ve just been so nice to me since we met. That's possibly why I got carried away. I don’t know what happened. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have taken the job. I’m sorry.”Drax’s brows furrowed. “Woah woah woah...” he interrupted. “Why are you apologizing? It’s only natural to have feelings for people you like. That’s why it’s called ‘falling in love’ You never have control over it. It just happens spontaneously.”“... and it’s a good thing, because I also have a confession too. I have had deep feelings for you from the first day I met you, Rissa.”He leaned forward and held her arms. “That day at the restaurant, I felt like I saw an angel. Your beauty, your humility. You got slapped, and you didn’t even retaliate. That’s all I’ve ever wanted in a woman. I feel at peace whenever I'm with you.“That day we had dinner at the restaurant. My plan was to ask you to be my girlfriend, but when you said you were still hu
She was getting herself into something she would regret. Getting intimate with her boss like this. And to make matters worse, it was without his consent.But he was actively engaged in the process... Her mind tried its best to justify her actions in order to escape the guilt. She sighed.Unfortunately, no matter how much she tried to tell herself that he also wanted it, the truth was that he was high and intoxicated.For all she knew, he didn’t even know where he was and he might not even remember a thing from this night by tomorrow morning.Wrapping her hands around his neck, she closed her eyes and buried her face in the curve of his shoulder and hugged him. She felt so good. She wanted it to last forever.“Thank you for everything.” She whispered under her breath.As much as she would have loved to continue being with him, she had to face the fact...He was way out of her league. And even if by some miracle, he somehow decides that he wanted to be with her, how can she be sure it’l
She was so excited; she made some cookies, put them in a basket and brought them to her colleagues at work almost every day. They loved her more for it.Her intention of avoiding Drax was easy for her so far, because he had gone on a business trip with his dad for a few days now. It was serene for her. No hiding behind the counters. No scanning along the hallway before coming out of her office...On Thursday morning, she came to work as usual and distributed some cookies she made around the office.When she finished distributing the cookies to those who cared, there were still a few left in the basket, so she took them and headed to her office.She was about to open the door when she heard a familiar deep masculine voice behind her.“You didn’t save any for me?”She turned around and saw Drax standing behind her with a big grin plastered on his face.Torn between two emotions, she managed to force a smile on her face.She couldn’t decide if she was happy to see him, or if she was sad
DRAX'S POVThe feeling was just so extra-ordinary. Captivated by the deep clouds of ecstasy they created. Lost in the void of erotic euphoria. Trapped in the prisons of blissful lust.Their tongues wriggled in each other's mouth, seeking for dominance, as their lips softly crushed against each other.Unfortunately, their trip to cloud nine was cut short by a knock on the door. "Hellooo...." Liam knocked twice before wrenching the door handle open, and walking in on the two love birds making out."grrrrr..." Liam grunted. "Here we go again." he facepalmed.They broke their kiss abruptly, and smoothened the invisible wrinkles on their clothes."Couldn't you at least allow her some time to remember what the world looks like, before sticking your tongue down her throat?" he grabbed a chair by the corner and sat down."So, Lily... How was coma?" Liam asked with a big grin across his face.Lily's brows furrowed. "I dunno... what's it supposed to be like?" She shrugged."Well, I was hoping i
RISSA'S POVShe quickly got dressed, got in her car, and drove downtown to the address. The building looked like a large warehouse from the outside view, but on the inside, it was renovated into a fortress. The surroundings of the warehouse was bushy, so area with quiet with no private houses around.When she arrived at the address, she called Jeff to inform him, and in a couple of minutes, he came out.He walked towards the car while she opened the door and stepped out."What's this place?" she asked after closing the door."It's one of our hideouts." He replied as they took some steps forwards.Rose's face contorted in a mild shock. "Why does the sign say it's a warehouse for diapers?" she pointed at the big signpost in front of the building.Jeff chuckled. "It's just camouflage...but on the inside, it's one of our biggest meth labs." He explained. "When we get in, you'll see.""So, what exactly does my father do?...I mean... what's the job description?""Okay..." he started. "In th
BILLY'S POV“So, how was your first day of representing your father in the business?” Jeff asked her while he removed the strap of the gun from over his shoulder and placed the gun on the table.“Um, it was good. Just that I didn’t expect that there’ll be so much people and so many guns.” She replied.Lily had not mentioned that Mr Clark was still in a coma and that he was not aware that she was representing him during the transaction.“Yeah... transactions like these could get really rough. Most of our clients are top mafias in this city. Some of them own the biggest pubs, hotels, clubs and things like that.” Jeff explained.“Oscar, get these guns into the car and get the cars ready.” He ordered one of the men standing by the side.“Sometimes, there could be a misunderstanding, and we may end up having a shootout. In cases like that, the last group standing wins and takes it all.” Jeff continued.They both strolled towards the building’s exit as they talked.“How long have you been w
DRAX'S POVThe best thing that has happened to me in the last two days is finding out that my wolf didn’t kill Rissa.After seeing her being molested by three dudes, I was angry, but I guess I must have been a bit aroused too, causing my wolf to spring up and attack.I had expected that my wolf would attack everyone as usual. Without any intention of leaving survivors.But surprisingly, he stopped in front of Rissa and allowed me to shift back into my human form before something bloody happened.What exactly is going on? I have never been able to shift back at will ever since my wolf became untameable. I was so surprised. I’m pretty sure I acted like a kid who just received a Christmas present.What exactly is happening? I asked in my head, scanning all over Rissa’s body to find any scars that might have been caused by my big bad wolf. There wasn’t any.She was trembling all over, though. I guess she was still traumatized by everything that had happened to her that night. Of which I a
LILY'S POVShe stood up slowly and left Arthur’s presence in a speed walk. Then she went to the hospital’s front desk and met the receptionist. “Hi. Please, I’m trying to find my friends’ room. Her name is Aria.”“Aria Who?” the receptionist asked.Amelia, after thinking and not knowing her surname, came up with a lie. “Um, I don’t think I can remember her surname. She’s a new colleague at work. I think she had a gunshot wound...”“Oh, let me see.” the receptionist brought out a big log book. “Okay, Aria Adams. She’s in room 306. 3rd floor.” She said.“Okay. Thank you very much.” She smiled and left.She took the elevator, and in less than a minute she was standing in front of room 306.She peeked in through the window and saw the room was empty, except for Aria lying comatose on the bed.She snuck in, and while her heart pounded in fear for what she was about to do, she had no option. She just had to do it. Her life depended on it.Everywhere was quiet. Except for the periodic beepin
