Chapter 21

Visitor

***

Hunter didn’t know how the heck did he found those cheesy antics. But Butler Henry told him that it was an effective way of apologizing.

And he thought that it must be an effective way since Leila had been giving her those sweet smiles again. It was a miracle that it made him at ease.

However, he still couldn’t believe that Butler Henry could be this enlightening in terms of wooing a woman. Perhaps, he shouldn’t underestimate him.

“I heard you cook something for Leila.” Myrtle teasingly commented as he was looking at the woman she just mentioned – who was washing the dishes now.

He chuckled inaudibly as he saw her swayed her hips – as if he was dancing with her own tune. But he instantly pursed his lips and swallowed hard when he heard Myrtle chuckled.

Hunter looked at her – but her face was glued to Leila, who seemed so oblivious about what was happening around. She seemed to be more focused on the dishes and must be in her very best mood.

“It’s just nothing.”

  • My Neighbor is a Werewolf!   22: Friend

    Chapter 22Friend***Leila was just so flabbergasted as she saw Duncan in front of her grandparents’ house.“What are you doing here?” She managed to ask him.But Duncan’s hug became a bit tighter – as he shook his head.“I am just so happy to see you, Leila. My God, I am very worried.” He said – full of concern.Then, he broke his embrace and held her both shoulders. His light brown eyes reflected worry as he looked at her from head to toe – as if he was trying to check whether she was really alright or not.Leila chuckled to lighten up the mood.But a warm and big hand pulled my arm – causing me to step away from Duncan. My eyes widened as I saw Hunter’s dark expression as he looked at Duncan.She swallowed hard – as her lips slightly ajar. Her eyes moved from Duncan’s now serious expression, then Hunter’s cold and annoyed face.“Uh, I am fine. Why are you here, anyway?” Leila inquired curiously.But the two seemed like they didn’t hear what she just said.“Who are you?” The two as

  • My Neighbor is a Werewolf!   23: Blood

    Chapter 23Blood***Leila was torn between the two. Her widened eyes looked from one to the other – until she could no longer hold the tension between them. She pulled her arms away from them.Hunter glared at her while Duncan let out a deep sigh as he gave her a short glance.“What is wrong with you two?” Leila asked curiously – as she folded her arms in front of her chest.She wasn’t annoyed – but she was purely intrigued and bewildered. She couldn’t understand the sudden animosity between them – when they had just met.“I think, your neighbor likes to talk to you. I will just be outside, Leila.” Duncan suddenly stated – and went out of the house before she could say more.Leila let out a deep sigh as her lips parted because of what happened. Then, she faced Hunter.“What is your problem?” She asked him seriously.To be honest, she was totally unaware of the reason for his irritation. Prior to their journey back here, he was fine. He even watched me while I prepared the ingredients

  • My Neighbor is a Werewolf!   24: Cure

    Chapter 24Cure***Hunter heard the loud and eerie growling sound from a distance. His eyes widened as he dashed out of the house. He almost bumped into Duncan, who was going inside the house.“Where the hell is Leila?” Hunter inquired critically.But based on Duncan’s expression, he seemed so oblivious as to what he was asking him.“What do you mean? I didn’t see her. I am-”Hunter didn’t wait for his words to finish and immediately ran to the woods where he heard the loud growl.“Look around! Haven’t you seen Leila?” He promptly inquired about the hunters around, but they simply shook their heads.Damn it!‘I should have known!’ Hunter thought to himself.His heart was beating so loudly inside him because he knew… He could identify that kind of growl. It came from a rogue.“Damn it!” Hunter murmured as he smelled the rogues around.He knew right there and then that rogues were truly around the area.‘I shouldn’t have not asked her to come here. It is not yet safe for her! Damn it!’

Their parents weren’t around – and everything have a process. Even though it was already decided – we couldn’t evade the fact that we still have to follow the rule.He accepted the beer from his hand – and instantly take three huge gulps before putting it down the wooden stair where he was sitting to.Hector, on the other hand, leaned on the wooden wall as he silently drank his beer.Silence filled the air – as the almost full moon was glistening with the star

However, he couldn’t compete with it. He was just hoping that everything will be okay – and their parents… They needed to go back here – as soon as possible.The elders haven’t decided to approve the ritual yet. And if they found out that the family had done this without their consent, he didn’t know what might happen.However, right now – he knew that whatever happened, we have to make sure that Leila was fine

  • My Neighbor is a Werewolf!   27: Awake

    Chapter 27Awake***Hunter woke up that day – with his head throbbing in pain.He was in his own room – and he was half naked. He was oblivious – and he couldn’t think rationally right now. All that he could think of was the fact that his head seemed to be cracking in half.“F*cking headache…” He cursed under his breath.The light coming from the sun was already sneaking to him from his curtain. It was a cold morning – as the sun was covered with grayish clouds. It seemed like it would soon rain.He let out a deep sigh.‘What happened?’ He asked himself – bewildered, as he got up from his bed and leaned against the headboard.He held his pulsating temple – as he tried to remember what happened. He felt so weak, too. It was as if he had been into an intense training. And yet, he couldn’t even remember anything – as if his mind was too exhausted to do its job and just decided to stop working for a moment.Hunter groaned in frustration.He didn’t want this kind of thing. He hated that h

    Chapter 28Save***Leila opened her eyes – as she felt the pain slowly rushing into her own body. It was as if every part of her was already too throbbing that she couldn’t even lift her own fingers. It was also so difficult for her to breath.“Leila…” She could recognize Myrtle’s voice calling her name.However, her mouth was dry – as she opened her lips and say something. But she couldn’t utter a single word. She was still oblivious as to what was happening around her.But she tried so hard to fight her own pain.‘I can do it. I can do it…’ It was like a mantra inside her head.“Butler Henry, kindly call Hunter and Uncle Bob…” Myrtle ordered the good butler – who instantly obeyed her order.Then, she looked at her. That was the least that she could do now. She opened her mouth – as she breath using it.“Water?” She asked kindly – and all that she could do was to nod her head as an answer.Even doing that, Leila felt to be too painfully difficult.Myrtle helped her she put some wate

    Chapter 29Wolf***‘I am a werewolf?’ It was all that was inside Leila’s mind – as she requested to be alone for the time being.She wanted time for herself. She wanted to think about it. She wanted to process everything to herself.***“This is the only way, Leila. I hope you understand. Hunter bite you and perform a ritual – for you to become like us. The wolf you met is your inner wolf. This… This is the only way to save you.”***Those words kept on playing inside her head like a broken stereo.Then, her tears fell – like a waterfall descending endlessly from her eyes.Leila bent her knees – before putting her arms above her knees and buried her face in it.She cried like there was no tomorrow. She couldn’t believe that from now on, she couldn’t get back to her old self anymore. That she had to face the fact that she was now a werewolf.What about her mother? And Darcel? What will happen to her now?She didn’t know.Her mind was confused – and in chaos.She didn’t know how to dea

  • My Neighbor is a Werewolf!   80: For Now

    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

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

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

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 76Seer***Leila smirked at Tammy sarcastically.She couldn’t believe that she could hear those words from a peculiar woman like her. It might be really true that looks could really be deceiving – and that odd words could come from someone you less expect to come from.Then, she shook her head as she smiled without humor.Leila looked at her with her cold and serious expression. Her dark brown eyes turned a bit darker – almost close to black.And right there and then, Tammy could feel the seething anger from her.“Kindness? Love? The old Leila?” She sardonically said those words – as if it was something so disappointing and disgusting.Then, she chuckled without humor – and shook her head once again. It was as if she couldn’t believe what she heard from her. It was as if she could hear something so ridiculous – but it was something that she could be annoyed for.“You must be joking, Tamika.” She uttered in pure irritation – as she gave emphasis to each and every word.This ti

    Chapter 75Old***After those simple talks with Tamika, Leila didn’t know how to react. She didn’t even know how to face her the next day.She didn’t even know how to interact with her.***“Sometimes it is better to share things with stranger. That way the lesser the person knows who you are, the better. There would be lesser judgment. Don’t you think, Leila?”***Those were the words from Tamika before she finally left her in the kitchen.Leila felt like everything that she heard from Tamika – were all meant for her. It was as if even though she didn’t share anything to her, she already knew. And as if she was telling her that she was not there to judge her – but to understand her.It was one thing that she was hoping for.Someone that would hear her pain.Besides, she couldn’t tell all of those to her mother. She had no one beside her. She had no one whom she could lean on nor be her crying buddy. No one could even listen to her stories… her pains… her side.Not until she found he

Even though she knew that her wound was a bit deep and there was a lot of blood.“Don’t worry, this is just a small cut.” Tamika explained without any trace of emotion at all!Leila pursed her lips together – as she went towards her.“Just a small cut?!

    Chapter 72Unanswered***“Who are you?”Regardless of how dry her throat was – and how her senses mess up with her, because an unknown and strange woman appeared in front of her, she managed to utter those words.And Leila wanted to clap at herself for that.Especially when it came as coldly and as bravely as she thought it could be.However, the woman’s expression didn’t change – even a bit – as she asked her that question.It was as if she was just looking at a mere object that she had seen her like forever.She was certainly – no, totally – weird.Then, in a matter of a few more seconds, she felt her body become weaker and weaker – making her swallow hard.“You are still weak. That’s understandable. You have fought death – you have to eat.” That was her answer instead.That made her forehead creased a bit more.It was as if she didn’t mind her words.
