Chapter 51

Warmth

***

Leila didn’t know how long she had let herself being caged inside Hunter’s embrace. But she loved it there. In fact, she wanted to stay there forever.

Hunter took away her fears – as he gave her that tight and warm hug.

She didn’t know how he appeared in her room – but there was one thing that she was sure of, she was not alone this time.

Leila remembered that whenever she had a nightmare, she was always alone. She couldn’t even tell it to her own mother. She would always deal it with herself… in the middle of darkness.

But this time, she had Hunter.

And it was enough for her to doze off – and felt the serenity inside his arms.

***

Hunter let out a deep sigh as he looked at Leila’s innocent face. He wiped the tears left in her cheeks – making her groan a bit. He smiled.

However, it instantly faded when he realized what happened to her before he came in her room.

*** Flashback…

He and Hector needed to do something that their parents asked them to do before they lef

    Chapter 52Aftermath***Leila moaned as she stretched her arms – but she took an abrupt stop when she felt a presence. She slowly opened her eyes – as she took a peek beside her.But she couldn’t stop herself from shrieking – the moment she saw Hunter’s sleeping face beside her.She absentmindedly kicked him out of her bed. Then, she covered herself with her own sheets. Her heart was pounding so hard inside her chest.Leila swallowed the lump in her throat – as she heard Hunter groaned, causing her to feel a bit guilty because of what she did.“What the hell!” Hunter skreiched – a bit annoyed because of falling to the floor.She was just so shocked… and bewildered – as she stood up near her window, just near her bed.‘What happened? Why is he here?’ She mentally thought – as she saw Hunter got up from the floor.Leila swallowed hard once again.“Y-You! What are y-you doing here?!” She exclaimed all of a sudden.Hunter looked at her – like she had grown some horns on her neck.Then, he

    Chapter 53Talk***Leila was just so happy that whatever fear and pain she felt and experienced in her nightmares flew away. Hunter calmed her heart and mind. And even though she was a bit disappointed that he wasn’t around last night – she was glad that she had him right now.He soothed her troubled heart.He kissed her pains.He shielded her from melancholy.She was humming as she walked towards the kitchen. She didn’t want to entertain the negative and lonely thoughts about her nightmares.Well, at least for now.She simply wanted to prepare breakfast for Hunter.Leila decided to prepare a fast and easy cooked meal yet delicious and healthy.It was a good thing that she didn’t cook some of the meat the hunters had yesterday. Well, she wanted to – but Myrtle had a better plan, just in case the two couldn’t join them at dinner. And she guessed it right.Perhaps, it wasn’t the first time that Hector ditched her. It seemed like she knew that it might happen. And it did. However, it was

Especially that Myrtle and Hector were always ruining their moment.However, seeing Leila’s smiles, he just couldn’t stop himself from being happy and contented, too.Besides, it might not be a good idea to propose to her.Yes.He was already thinking about it.But for what was happening right now, maybe he still needed to focus on their responsibility for the pack. Maybe when their parents arrived, he could plan for it already.Besides, they were still investigating something. He couldn’t let Leila by herself. Even Myrtle. It was a good thing that they have together. And Myrtle was training her, too when he wasn’t around.It would be better for her. He

    Chapter 55Flowers***On the Moon Howlers Pack community, Leila laughed as she found herself enjoying Myrtle’s company who ignored his husband’s offer to come with him at his office.Hector is still the acting Alpha of the pack, and he was just so busy.“I will just be bored. Just go on… I will stay here.” Myrtle stubbornly retorted back – making her giggle silently.Hector couldn’t do anything but scratch his head and walked away with his sulked face.It was a good thing for her though – but not as good for Hector. And it was just so funny as she stared at the two bicker a bit a while ago.Well, it was better for her though – especially that Hunter is just so busy, too. He told her that he still has to talk to Butler Henry. And since she was in the mood, she let him do his thing first.Besides, she was so attentive to Myrtle’s stories. It was about Hunter. And she was just so interested in hearing all of it.“Hunter… He is really so caring. Even though he is cold and distant – alway

    Chapter 56Danger***“This is getting so serious.” Hector commented critically – as he looked at Hunter, who seemed to be thinking the same thing as him.Right after they had eaten their sumptuous dinner a while ago with Myrtle and Leila, they have gone towards Elder Hudson to talk about the ominous situation happening near their border.It was getting out of hand – and they have to take a step.They couldn’t talk about it in front of the two women – especially that they knew it would certainly make them worry. And they don’t want that to happen. They wanted them to always be at ease.However, because of what was happening now, they both think that it would be impossible to keep this a secret. They have to make sure to make a solution to this. They didn’t want anything to escalate – but how?They don’t even know who the heck is behind this.The hunters as well as the sentinel wolves were doubled just to find out what the hell is happening. But they couldn’t find anything – not even a

Thank you.***“What the f*cking hell…” Hector commented darkly – as they arrived near the border where the dead bodies were located.He couldn’t believe that someone could do something as morbid as this.He might say that it was something that a sane member of the any pack could do something like this. And if that’s the case, they should be very careful.“We found these bodies when we changed our shifts, Master Hector.” One of the sentinel wolves guarding that spot reported seriously.It seemed like whoever did this, they knew when they could go through the border.Hunter gave Hector a meaningful glare. And it looked like they were thinking the same thing.“We ordered you to make sure that you have tightened the security near the border, right? What happened?” Hector inquired darkly –

They have to continue talking about addressing the problem – especially the one that happened near their border.But it looked like Elder Howard simply wanted them to stay put and wait for their parents to arrive.

    Chapter 59Genuine***“What happened to you? Are you okay?” It was Leila’s voice that made him look around.Her brows burrowed – as she looked at him with pure concern.Then, Hunter’s face slightly turned a bit gentler. However, that doesn’t change the fact that she already saw his expression a while ago. He was caught off guard that he hadn’t noticed her and Myrtle immediately.Hunter swallowed hard as Myrtle gave them a teasing smile – like what Elder Howard and Hector did a while back – then, she just nodded at them before she proceeded towards the mansion.Hunter couldn’t even tell her about her grandfather because all of his attention was with Leila already.Especially when she put her hand in his forehead – as if checking whether he was fine or not.Hunter swallowed hard.Volts of electricity travelled in his veins with just short skin to skin contact – and it was something that only Leila could do to him. It was her effect on him – and it was making his inner wolf get frantic

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?! Look at your hand!” She uttered in pure disbelief.However, before she could even get closer to her – her feet stopped.She inwardly shook her head.‘No… I shouldn’t trust her… Not yet… Or simply…

    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. It was as if she had her own world to deal with. And that she was just there for her to take care of.Well, that was what her guts w

And it was getting louder and louder. This time, she was sure.She could hear her father calling her name.“D-Dad…” She wanted to say out loud – but she couldn’t.Her lips seemed to be glued together – as if she couldn’t say anything even if she wanted to.“Leila!”There was it… again. For the nth time – she closed her eyes firmly.Then, she heard a loud and eerie growling sound – echoing in the depths of the forest.Leila shivered down her spine. Her legs started to tremble – as she felt palms turning cold. Bullet of sweat started to gather in her forehead – as she tried looking around for her father.She

It was as if there were heavy sacks that were on her eyelids that she couldn’t lift up.‘You can do it, Leila… Don’t give up…’It was Silver’s voice.And Leila knew that she still has someone with her. Even after everything that happened – she still has Silver, her inner wolf.However, no matter how much she tried to open her eyes – she couldn’t.She could feel the poison slowly creeping into her veins.Leila might not be a quitter. She had never been. She thought of her father – and her eyes instantly moistened with tears.‘My poor father…’ She mentally thought.However, even though she was still mourning for her father – she couldn’t stop thinking that she still has her mother and Darcel. She still has

    Chapter 69Truth***The darkness of the depths of the woods wouldn’t be a hindrance for Hunter and his comrades in finding Leila.Owls started to hoot – echoing the entire forest, making it creepier, but no one even shivered at the thought of it.Every single one of them knew what they came into.Danger might come anytime – especially at this kind of place.And every single one of them were ready for anything – even for a sudden battle that could resurface anytime.But even amidst everything, Hunter’s mind was still in chaos – as he, Hector, and some hunters and sentinel wolves were looking for Leila as they were still trying to find Leila in the middle of the dark forest where he last saw her.He couldn’t believe what he had just heard from his parents a while ago. And he was in between getting at ease and worry – as memories of what they talked about, back in the Black Mansion played inside his mind.*** Flashback…“And we are also telling the truth, Son…” Hera Black, his mother, s

    Chapter 68Believe***‘What the heck happened?’ Hunter couldn’t stop asking – as his concern rocketed to the moon. He tried looking around – hoping to see anything… any clue that could help him to find Leila.But to no avail.He couldn’t find anything – until he was already exhausted and unable to think clearly. But he had to. He had to find Leila. But how?Hunter let out a loud growl – hoping that it could reach Leila. He was feeling so hopeless – but he had to stay strong. He wouldn’t lose her – definitely not this way.He still has to find some ways – a lot more ways for her. And giving up was not part of it.For the second and third time, he let out a louder growl – hoping and even thinking that it might make him think rationally. He was panting so hard – as he looked around for the nth time.There was still no sign of Leila. He looked above – as his black snout tried to sniff her in the air, hoping that there might still be her scent left into the cold breeze… But there was none

He ignored him as he walked past their parents – who were still looking blankly, as if they were trying to process everything.“I will get back… And when I do, I want some answers…” He stated – using his coldest and most dangerous tone of voice.Hector’s forehead creased.“You can’t-”But their father, Hudson, simply raised his right hand in the air – as if stopping the both of them.And then, he looked at him seriously.“Be careful… We will wait for you.” He simply replied

She didn’t know how long she had been staying there.And she didn’t know how long she could still stay there.At least she had to find somewhere she could stay in.However, her body just wouldn’t move and allow her to go and find herself with a decent place to take a rest with.Her mind was still in a race to think about what she had to do next. Even planning her revenge. And processing her every emotion – that was lingering in her heart.But her body was already too tired to even take it all in.She had to take a break.
