Leila Mercado is a funny, sweet, innocent and lovely lady home baker who just wanted to be independent. On her eighteenth birthday, her wish was granted to live independently in a house she inherited from her grandmother. She baked chocolate chip cookies for her new neighbors, most especially for the owner of the mansion beside her small bungalow house – Hunter Black. But she was offended when he just gave her baked cookies to his gardener without even saying a simple thank you to her! She was so mad and determined to know who that cold, snob and mysterious neighbor was! But her stubborn heart was mesmerized by Hunter – that it kept beating like crazy whenever he’s around. A big ‘no’ for her! One day, her stepfather tried to violate her, but a huge wolf appeared to rescue her! She tried to follow the wolf – thinking that it was a hybrid enormous wolf and found out that it went to the Mansion’s backyard. Did Hunter own the wolf? She wanted one, too!

She could feel so unsafe with them. Well, she couldn’t blame herself for thinking that way. Based on the way they dress – to the way they look at her.“Stop wriggling or you will not want what I’ll do next…” The man with huge and bulky body said.She just gave them a deadly glare.Even if she wanted to say a thing, she couldn’t. Her lips were taped. It was because of talking too much a while ago.Leila couldn’t stop getting annoyed because of

Thank you.***Leila woke up with a terrible headache and it became worst when she smelled the rotten stench around her. She almost wanted to puke at that.‘Damn it!’ She commented inside her head – as she caught herself in heavy breathing.She tried her best to open her heavy lids – as she gritted her teeth because she couldn’t even do that easily. She closed her eyes again firmly – trying to gather her sane thoughts.‘What happened? Where the heck am I?’ She mentally asked herself.She felt so dizzy – as she tried collecting her own thoughts. Then, she realized that she was in Tammy’s house when someone knocked her out by making her smell something so strong before she went out of consciousness.‘That might be some sort of a drug. But why?’ Leila inquired once again, bewildered.She
Chapter 83Surprise***Amidst the darkness of the night, someone was moving in a meteoric way. His pink tongue was dancing with the cold breeze – but it was sure that he was a reflection of success and giddiness.His grayish fur was glistening with the ray of light kissing it. But he didn’t even care. All that in his head right now was the fact that he is almost near to his goal.Finally…When a deer came in his way – he didn’t even blink as he jumped on a log and then landed at the back of the deer before jumping away and continued running.In some other time, he could have sliced it up into two and brought it into their base – but not today.Because there is more important thing that he had to do now.What a lucky deer!He couldn’t stop himself but to sneer – feeling thrilled with the fact that after how many months of unsuccessful attempts and misleading information about their target, he had finally got a chance.“Sir Viego…”The moment he reached his companions; he took an abrup
Chapter 82Warning***Hunter didn’t know how long he had been sitting on that unfamiliar barn.All that he knew was the fact that Leila broke up with him already.And her words kept on playing inside his mind – like a broken stereo.It was as if his could also hear his heart breaking inside his chest. It was excruciatingly painful. It was something that he was silently hoping to be just a dream… a nightmare.But it wasn’t.He knew that it wasn’t the case.This is real.A painful reality.He swallowed the lump in his throat – as he tried to calm himself. He came in the South – quietly hoping to find Leila. At least to make sure that she is unharmed… by any means. But he knew that wouldn’t be possible.Leila is in deep pain.And so did he.For now, what settled him was the fact that he found her – at least that was the only consolation he had right now. She is safe and sound. She is fine. And she found someone that could be with her – even though he didn’t saw her a while ago when he w
Chapter 81Break***Leila woke up the next day – as if there was someone staring at her. She blinked her eyes – as she adjusted to the light coming from the barn.Then, she suddenly got sensible and immediately got up from the bed. She almost fell from it – causing someone to shout worriedly at her.“H-Hey! Be careful!” A familiar voice agitatedly told her – as he sat on the bed, as if he was trying to hold her arm.But Leila – acted on instinct – instantly got herself steady and moved slightly away from Hunter.Her forehead creased – as she was trying to recall what happened to her.She looked around – and remembered that she was still in the barn… And with Hunter!Leila let out a loud curse inside her head – as she tried to maintain her cool.For a moment, she lost her calm demeanor. For a moment, she had broken her wall. For a moment, she almost did something that she might regret in the future.She looked at Hunter’s worried expression – and she almost got lost once again. Howeve
Chapter 80For Now***Leila wiped away the tears that fell from her eyes.She didn’t know how long she had stayed that way.It was as if she had finally seized the moment – even though what she could only do was to stare at the man that her heart is yearning for.Leila knew that deep in her heart – she was still confused. However, even though she wanted to follow her heart, she could ignore the fact that seeing Hunter’s parents could remind her of the pain… The pain of losing her own father. The reason why her family was ruined.And it was like adding salt to the wound – that fate wanted them to see each other again.She didn’t even know how the heck did Hunter found them in the deepest part of the South. She knew that even if Tammy wanted her to forgive and let love overtake her heart, she wouldn’t let anyone enter this part of the forest.Leila let out a deep sigh as she was about to stand up and simply go towards the small couch she was sitting from a while ago – when she stopped

Reader’s discretion is advised. Thank you.***Leila didn’t know how to react.All that she knew that time was the fast beating of her heart – and it was something that she could already hear from her ears.The moment felt so surreal – but in a negative way.She could feel the sudden fear engulfing her entire being – something that she didn’t even feel a moment ago while fighting the rogues.The moment she saw blood dripping from Hunter’s body, she knew that she was scared – not for her own life but for him.‘Isn’t that what you wished for? Isn’t that what you meant to do when you discovered what happen to your father?’ A part of her mind reminded her.She gritted her teeth.Right now, she didn’t know anymore.“Damn it!” She whispered under her breath – as she watched Tamika tried to cure Hunter’s wound from a

Reader’s discretion is advised. Thank you.***“This is not good, Leila…” Even Silver commented inside her head.Leila knew that they might be doomed right now. They were caught off guard. And she wanted to blame herself for that.‘How the heck could they freaking conceal their presence?’ She asked herself – annoyed.She only noticed three rogue presences a while ago.But now…There might be a dozen rogues around them now.Damn it!She just couldn’t believe it.‘How the heck did that happen?’ She mentally asked herself once again – for she thought that she had already improved.That time, she just felt so annoyed and hopeless.“We are in the depths of the South, Leila. This is their territory. Don’t be hard on yourself.” Silver answered deliberately – as if she was trying to console her.She let out a deep sigh in
Chapter 77Strong***“I am a seer, Leila.”Her lips slightly parted ways – as she stared at her.Tammy’s expression didn’t even change, but she knew that she wouldn’t even joke about it. However, it was just so shocking to know.Leila took a deep breath – as she tried to process her thoughts.“I know that it is hard to believe… But I am… And I know what situation you are into…” Tammy stated seriously – as if she was completely trying to persuade her.But Leila slightly shook her head. She gave her an unbelievable look – it was as if she had her own thoughts, disagreeing with her.“You see the future… And you let them… You are just too kind, Tamika…” She uttered coldly.However, Tammy shook her head.“I can’t see my future, Leila… And all I can do is to be kind… There will never be wrong in being kind…” She contradicted – causing her to groan in annoyance.Then, she smirked at her.“There will never be wrong in being kind… That’s a ridiculous thinking, Tammy.” She said – emphasizing h
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...
