The very moment Leila Mercado met her neighbor, Hunter Black, she knew that the man was totally enigmatic and, well, attractive. Not until he almost throws away her baked cookies! The nerve of the man! He is a snob and coldhearted – but due to her nosiness, she discovers more about Hunter. And no matter how much she tried to stop her foolish heart from falling for the man, she just couldn’t. Not especially when fate would always bring them together. Leila knew that her heart was in danger. But she is willing to take a risk. She knew that Hunter was all worth it. But is it? What if she discovers more about Hunter? What if she discovers that her neighbor is a werewolf? Would she still love and accept him?

She couldn’t stop thinking about everything. Even when she went to bed last night.Heck! She didn’t even know how she managed to get back to her room.Her mind was in haywire – and so was today.The sunlight was already peeking inside her room.She took a glimpse at her bedside clock – only to see that it was just five in the morning. She only has a few hours’ sleep. Well, it was a good thing that she did sleep anyway. She couldn’t afford to think of the things over and over again – especially that she was already feeling so exhausted physically, emotionally, and mentally.However, even though she wanted to stay in her bed and think about everything that Hunter’s parents told her, she had to stand up and face the day.Besides, if she stayed that way – she could not stop herself from thinking more. She
Chapter 124Forgotten Memories***Content Warning: This chapter might contain violence, abuse, crime, or triggering factors that may be harmful, disturbing, or traumatizing to some. Reader’s discretion is advised. Thank you.***Leila bit her lower lip – as she tried to calm herself. She even closed her eyes – however, that only made her memories became more vivid to her mind.Her head was throbbing in pain – but this time, it was as if her memories had triggered, and it was flowing in her mind like a river.“Leila… Are you okay?”She could hear Mrs. Black’s voice – but the excruciating pain was just too much for her to bear, that she couldn’t even nod or open her eyes, just so she could assure her that she is fine.“Stay with her… I will call Doc Fridger…&
Chapter 123Played Trust***Mrs. Black let out a deep sigh – as she was looking at her intently.Even Mr. Black stared at her the same way.Leila felt like the emotions floating in the air didn’t change. It was still light – but a bit gloomier. This time, she saw some pain and sadness written in their eyes.It only added guilt into her heart – which she didn’t know for what or for who.She didn’t know but there was something in the way they looked at her – something that made her heart a bit heavier.“Lindon Mercado…” Mrs. Black called her father’s name – as she was slightly nodding her head.Then, she looked at the huge window on the right side of the room.It was as if she was lost in her own thoughts all of a sudden.“Leila…” Mr. Black called her seriously &ndash
Chapter 122Blame***Silence filled the air – as Mrs. Black called her in the library instead of staying in the living room.Leil agreed.It was better that way since what they might be going to talk about was all serious and private. And it seemed like they were both thinking the same thing.Mrs. Black is a light conversationist.“We heard that Hunter is already awake, but we just arrived. Maybe we can talk to him tomorrow.” Mrs. Black told her – as they sat on the single couches.She sat across from her while Mr. Black sat on the other side.Mr. Black rested his elbows in the armrest – as he intertwined his fingers right in front of his chest. He was staring at her and his wife. His eyes were dark.This time she realized where Hunter got his features.The first time she met them – she couldn’t look at them that i
Chapter 121Conversation***Hunter just wouldn’t let her go – not until Leila threatened him of not baking his favorite tart again. Well, she all knew that if he had another choice, he wouldn’t let her go. But he knew that his body is still frail – and he was easily exhausted.Well, Leila was just so happy that Hunter was fine now.He only needs to rest peacefully – and rejuvenate fully.His wounds were still fresh and no matter how much he tried to spend time with her – the medicine that Uncle Bob gave him made him drowsy.So now, he was already fast asleep.Leila looked at how peaceful Hunter was while sleeping.She couldn’t stop herself from smiling from ear to ear.After everything that happened to them – she thought that they deserved to take a break and have this peace of mind.Finally, Donovan was dead.They could breathe properly now.Leila looked at Hunter once again – before planting a soft kiss on his lips.“Good night…” She murmured under her breath.She still couldn’t st
Chapter 120Medicine***Leila’s face was still in bright red – while looking at Hunter being checked by Uncle Bob.She couldn’t believe that she could be such an aggressive woman.‘Damn it, Leila… You really have to do that a while ago? You should have asked him if he was okay – not kissed him right there and then.’ She murmured inside her head.Then, her face turned redder when she realized that if Hunter didn’t groan in pain – she wouldn’t stop the kiss yet.“You are really an aggressive one, Leila…” This time, Silver tried to throw her a playful remark.Her lips protruded.Well, she had no excuse for that.She was just so happy – that she couldn’t stop herself.However, seeing how Hunter looked at her with that playful smirk on his face –
Chapter 119Floating***“W-What?” Leila whispered under her breath – as she looked at Hector straight into the eyes.Of course, he wouldn’t dare tell them a lie.No one would joke around at this kind of sensitive topic.And if he might dare doing it – all of them would surely give him a hit.Hector let out a deep sigh before he spoke.“After rescuing you and Hunter, we tried locating him. But all of a sudden, the Triad base suddenly exploded. It seemed like the explosives inside were lit and Donovan… He is one of those who were dead. We saw his dead body in his throne.” Hector explained seriously.Leila didn’t know what to feel about the news.She was torn of being happy and sad – all at the same time.Of course, she couldn’t be happy for having someone she knew – dead. Even though th
Chapter 118Finally***The Moon Howlers Pack rescued them from the Triad base.It was the truth that she had been thinking the very moment she opened her eyes. Once again, she was in her room when she woke up.Myrtle already told her everything.*** Flashback…“You are lucky to escape being totally eaten by your animalistic side, Leila.”It was almost the same words that came from Silver.Myrtle worriedly looked at her.Yes.She almost became a lycan.And if that happened – there would be a huge possibility that she couldn’t go back.She could be someone whose soul was eaten by their animalistic side. Someone that couldn’t shift back into their human form – a cursed lycan. And she could not think properly any longer.
Chapter 117Better******Darkness.That was what she saw when she opened her eyes.She looked around – but there was no one.Leila’s heart was beating so loud inside her chest.“Silver…” She called her inner wolf – and right there and then, Silver appeared in front of her.She was truly surprised.“Where are we?” Leila asked – full of worry, confusion, and curiosity.She looked around once again. Her heart beat was escalating. She was totally confused – and she didn’t know what happened to her prior to how she ended up there.“What happened?” She asked once again – as she met Silver’s eyes.“You almost got it bad, Leila… You pushed yourself too mu
Chapter 1 *** Leila thanked the taxi driver as she stepped out of the car with her one huge black luggage and a medium-sized black and gray traveling bag waiting at her side. The driver closed the door of the car, just humbly smiled at her, then drove away after she had paid a few bucks. She stretched her limbs to at least ease her outstretched arms from the long drive. She was oblivious to the things around her as she stared at the small bungalow house she inherited from her loving grandparents from his father’s side, Emilio and Josefa Mercado. Her mind was clouded with flashing memories she had with her loving late grandmother, who would run towards where she was the moment she had stepped out of their car, while her late grandfather would just smile – while watching them. Good old days. That was what she was thinking while looking at the old house. It was a single-story house with a slope roof that was made of concrete, glass, and bricks – and the colors were mixed of gray an...
