Demiel didn’t know what was going on with the ladies. He knew the guards would do something once trouble took place which might involve Dianna and Haina. Since he ordered a lot of drinks, he had to wait for five minutes. While waiting, he decided to talk to the bartender about anything. He was dancing gracefully, until he noticed Haina running toward his way. “Hey, what’s going on? Where is Dianna?” Haina touched her chest and breathed deeply. “She’s in trouble! Someone is trying to dance with her, but she refused then the man suddenly became too aggressive!” Without any hesitation, Demiel ran as fast he could into the dance floor. He followed Haina. From a distance, they saw how the crowd stopped and watched how the man forced Dianna to dance with him. The guards couldn’t do anything because of the stranger’s status. They were afraid to lose their jobs once they get involve. From then, Demiel quickly asked what was going on. Why the guards didn’t do anything about the situat
“Klaud,” Dianna murmured as soon as she opened the door. She blinked her eyes countless times, thinking it was merely a mistake or the man has similar features with the alpha. The man giggled and caressed his chin. “Well, I’m not Klaud and he’s not here.” Aaron replied with a fake smile on his lips. “It’s me Aaron and Demiel told me to join you.” Dianna didn’t want to say anymore. She decided to have fun, trying to feel better but because of Demiel’s invitation, everything felt the same. Instead of telling him to go home, Dianna chose to be silent and kind. She said, “Come inside. Demiel is playing billiards.” “Oh, I think I arrived at the perfect timing!” Aaron answered. His voice wasn’t consistent as if talking with Dianna made him nervous and uncomfortable. He didn’t want to pressure her, but his actions spoke so well. He said, “Ex… excuse me for a while! I’ll talk to Demiel.”“Go on,” said Dianna and looked away from his face. By then, Dianna walked quietly back to the c
Quarter to twelve when Dianna excused herself from them. She told Haina she would go the rest room and retouch her make up. Dianna brought her purse and left her phone at Haina’s purse. It was bigger than hers and to make sure it won’t be gone. “I’ll be back in a few minutes,” said Dianna as soon as she turned her back. Along the way to the lady’s restroom, she couldn’t get rid of the man she saw earlier. She knew it was Klaud but couldn’t confirm that he was around. “Hmm, I’m seeing things that I shouldn’t be.” She murmured and continued to walk, passing by at every table surrounded by men and ladies. She shook her head in awe, thinking how people handled the loud and crowded room. After a few minutes of walking, Dianna saw the lady’s room signage and quickly went inside. The first thing she did was to go to one of the cubicles and peed. Then pressed the flush button and went out to retouch. The entire room was empty and silent. Perhaps it wasn’t the only restroom inside, or
Warm sunrays touched Dianna’s face, making sure she would feel its warmth and wake her up from a beautiful, yet painful dream. She slightly looked around, rubbing her eyes was a second option. She sighed heavily and held her head, realizing what she did last night. Then she looked at her clothes, still wearing the same one. “Ugh, my head!” She cried in discomfort, hoping it to disappear as soon as possible. “I… I’ll never drink again!” It wasn’t a promise, but a realization. Dianna forgot about her conversation with Klaud Anderson last night. She thought it was merely a dream and impossible to be real. “Good thing today is Sunday,” she mumbled and stared upon the empty ceiling. “Why am I feeling this way? What exactly happened last night before I passed out?” Memories flashed back but ended up feeling sick. Dianna caressed her temple, wishing the pain and dizziness would go away. “I need a hot soup,” she spoke calmly. By then, she took a quick shower and changed her clothes. D
From a distance, Dianna saw how terrible the entrance of the shop. People gathered outside, trying to know what had happened. Dianna quickly paid the taxi driver and ran toward inside where she saw Haina, crying and devastated at one of the corners. Weak and trembling, she comforted Haina with all her strength. She looked around and realized how big the damaged was. Broken glasses, messy floor surrounded with cookies and breads. Aside from the products, the counter area was ravaged by the thieves. Her heart continued to beat fast as if it would explode anytime soon. Her knees were weak, seeing how her hard works went like this. “I… I’m sorry, I… I didn’t know it would happen this way,” said Haina as she cried. Her eyes were swollen, but crying and blaming herself wouldn’t change the situation. Dianna rubbed her back and breathed heavily. It was hard for her to accept the fact, but blaming someone else was way harder for her. To comfort Haina, Dianna hugged her tightly and whis
Two hours passed since Dianna thought of possible culprits. She couldn’t wait any longer to know and catch them as soon as it could be. Her head was in the middle of chaos and confusion. She couldn’t think straight and right because of the overwhelming and life-threatening situation. While waiting for an update from the authorities, Dianna hired a few people to clean up the entire shop. Fortunately, the damage upstairs wasn’t too big deal, just a few messes at the ground. Despite being the owner, Dianna helped them to make things done quickly. She swept the ruined cookies and other product and threw away the broken pieces of glass window.Suddenly, Haina came toward her, panting heavily. She said, “Some… someone is calling you, Ma’am!” Dianna narrowed her eyes, wondering who it could be. The Sergeant Major or the mastermind behind this mess. “Alright, I’ll take care of it. Kindly go back inside to check if our stocks also need to be replaced.” Haina nodded, but her face was fil
Upon their arrival at the nearest hospital, the nurses quickly assisted them and took Dianna straight into one of the rooms. Seeing Dianna gave clue to the nurses that she didn’t need to be operated. Then of them asked Aaron and Demiel what happened. “What happened to the patient?”“She… she fainted!” Demiel replied as his entire body was trembling out of fear. By then, the nurses pushed the hospital bed into one of the private rooms. They checked her pulse, eyes, and heartbeat while Demiel and Aaron decided to wait outside. Demiel couldn’t just sit around and wait quietly. He walked back and forth instead which caught Aaron’s attention. He said, “Hey, can you sit down and be calm! You’re making ne nervous too.” “I… I don’t know, but it seems like this all my fault! If only, I didn’t tell her about Klaud she wouldn’t react that way!” “Is it true?” Aaron asked shortly. “I don’t know, I just heard it from my friend. Klaud is leaving because he didn’t want to stay with Ashley any
A soft tickling sound of the white, wall clock, Dianna woke up from a long sleep. She slightly opened her eyes, looking around at the entire room. White ceiling, hospital bed and dress, saline bag, and beige vase filled tulips and white roses caught her attention. Dianna sighed heavily, wondering what had happened. She rubbed her eyes and opened widely. Then she realized where she was at the moment. “Uh, my head!” She frowned, trying to resist the pain. Before she could do anything, the doctor suddenly went inside carrying the result of all the tests done earlier. “Don’t move too quick, Ms. Sy,” said the doctor with worries drawn in her face. “Stay still for your sake.” She looked at her stomach for a few seconds until Dianna met her gaze and frowned. She said, “Why… why are you looking at my stomach? Do I have a contagious or serious illness?” The doctor laughed and shook her head in disagreement. “Of course, there is no such thing! You are healthier than what you think, an
A romantic music background was playing. All the guests were excited to catch a glimpse of the bride. Since it was a garden-themed wedding, the entire surroundings were filled with colorful and fragrant flowers. There were white-laced fabrics used as decorations as well. For Dianna, it was the best place she could have ever seen in her life. She was standing in front of an arcade, and no one could see her aside from Cielo and the other staff. "And now, here's come our gorgeous bride." By then, Dianna's favorite song played as the curtains were finally split in half. Everyone turned their heads and watched Dianna walking down the aisle. "Wow! She's so perfect, like a goddess!" "Is she Dianna Sy?" "Yes, that's her.""She's beautiful and I can't wait to offer her to be a model." Most of the guests were captivated by the bride's alluring beauty. They wanted her to be a model, an actress, or even a beauty product ambassador. However, it wouldn't happen because Klaud Anderson had e
The sound of an alarm clock echoed around the entire room. Dianna quickly woke up as soon as she heard its ringtone, excited enough to prepare for a very special moment in her life. Before rushing to Kalex's room, Dianna looked at the wall clock and it was real. It was five in the morning. Perfect enough to start moving while the sun rises into the sky. "Good morning, sunshine! I must relax my body today." She mumbled while walking to Kalex's room with a wide smile on her lips. If she wasn't mistaken, it had been a week since she talked to Klaud. To follow the tradition, she somehow contacted his parents to ask questions. By then, as soon as she pushed the door. Kalex smiled at her sweetly and gave her a wedding gift. He said, "Good morning, mommy! Since I don't have enough money yet, I only afford to buy this gift for you. I hope you'll like it." Dianna pouted her lips. Then she walked closer to receive his gift. Her heart was filled with happiness as she watched her son grow i
Blood and screams of dying werewolves echoed around the battlefield. Everyone is desperate to emerge as victors against each other. The ground turned into a bed covered with red, stinky fluid. It seemed like a beautiful, and breathtaking masterpiece of an artist. Klaud, the powerful alpha started to lose his strength. He fought against hundreds of enemies by himself. He almost killed half of their numbers, but he had to finish his mission, alive and well. "You're a worthless leader! How could live in luxury while we are living in vain?" "Kill him!" "Kill him!" All of them wanted to kill the alpha. They were embraced with disdain as if they couldn't accept Klaud as their leader anymore. With all courage and confidence, the enemies attacked the alpha and transformed into their beast forms. They only had one target, but they couldn't defeat him at a single blow. Klaud looked intently into the enemies. He remained focused as he didn't want to be stabbed from behind. "Come!" "If
The real, bloody war has begun. The Alpha initiated to make the first move as he wanted to put an end to this war. If Devon only wanted his power and position, he was willing to give up everything, but it wouldn't guarantee his safety. The only way to end the war was to get rid of the enemy. At that moment, Klaud's move was unexpected, catching Devon and his army off guard. They were not prepared for such a swift attack, and chaos ensued in the spacious hall surrounded by the torches.Despite the initial setback, Devon ordered his men to fight back fiercely. He knew that this battle would determine the fate of their entire species, and he was determined to emerge victorious as the new alpha of the pack. As the fighting raged on, casualties began to mount. The ground was slick with blood and the air was filled with the sound of screams and battle cries.In the midst of all this carnage, the alpha caught a glimpse of his enemy's face after a long time. He had always thought of a powe
Along the way to the woods, Klaud heard a loud tone coming from his phone. He didn't who was calling, but he checked it upon remembering Dianna. Like what he thought, the caller was the love of his life. Without any hint of fear, Klaud answered it. "Hi, Dianna! Why did you call, did you miss me already?" He spoke sweetly as if everything was fine. In the other line, Dianna gasped and cleared her throat. She said, "Where are you? Why am I hearing something noisy? Are you in a bar with Demiel and Aaron again?" Klaud wished it was true. It would be better to hang out with the boys rather than risk his life. He chuckled and tried to lighten up the mood. Talking about something might trigger Dianna, and it wouldn't be a good sign for him. Instead, Klaud lied to her. It was the best thing he could do for her safety. He said, "No, we didn't. I'm in my room, sleeping. But I can't ignore you, that's why I answered the call." At that moment, Dianna felt guilty and sorry for being too i
"No! I don't want to let you sacrifice yourself, Klaud! We need you, especially Dianna and Kalex!" Chris tried to persuade his son. Letting Klaud confront Devon Flamming would only result in casualty, or worse, death. As a father, he didn't want his son to lose everything he cared for. Once his greatest fear took place, it would be impossible to change it at all. However, Klaud was ready to conquer the enemy. No one could stop the enemy from causing so much trouble in their lives. Once he doesn't take immediate action, the enemy might take his son or Dianna. "I'm sorry, father but I am ready to die! If this is the only way to stop Devon, then I will fulfill my responsibilities as an alpha." Klaud replied with bravery. He knew time was running and he must move quickly to avoid any attack. Sooner or later, Devon's men would rampage to their house. "We don't have much time! Hurry up and pack your things, now!" Klaud exclaimed. "Don't worry about Dianna and Kalex. Aaron will take c
The cold wind brushed off to the alpha's bare arms. He was standing straight next to Aaron. Klaud decided to meet him before going back home. He must ensure Dianna and Kalex's safety before he confront his enemy. After a long silence, Aaron started a conversation. He didn't want to waste any second anymore. He said, "What brought you here?" The alpha put his hands into his pocket. He thought about it very carefully and seeing Aaron, he knew he was such a trustworthy person. "I don't know why, but you're the only man whom I can trust everyone I loved. This is not going to be an easy war, that's why I'm making sure there's someone else to replace my place as a friend." Klaud took a deep breath as he shook his head slightly. He trusted Aaron knowing how capable he was of taking his place. But then, Aaron wasn't aware of what was going on. He couldn't understand why it seemed like Klaud was going to somewhere distant. With a hint of confusion on his face, he gasped and tried to kn
Innocent children played happily with their friends and families. It was a beautiful sight for anyone who wanted genuine happiness and peace. Klaud couldn’t take off his eyes from Dianna and Kalex. They were laughing while they tried to figure out about the little bicycle. He made sure everything was all right as he didn’t want anyone to worry about anymore. “Daddy!” “Daddy!” “Come here! Teach us to ride!” Kalex sweet voice echoed around that caught his attention. To hide the truth from them, a warm smile flaunted on his face. No one could tell how scared he was to lose them both. “I’m coming!” Klaud spoke as he quickly stood from the ground. He ran closer to them and held the bicycle firmly. Then he carried Kalex and let him ride with it. “Don’t worry, dad is here.” Klaud spoke as he assured the little man. By then, they were all laughing and enjoyed their first family bonding. Dianna’s smile was priceless as he could never forget about it. Every little thing about her and
After at Cielo’s sophisticated boutique, the couple decided to look for the perfect reception. Klaud wanted the best for their wedding. He asked Dianna about the reception she wanted. “About the reception, what do you want about it?” Dianna smiled. Since she was a kid, she dreamed of a forest themed reception. Where different flowers scattered through out the place with alive butterflies. It was one of the best things she dreamed before. She said, “To be honest, I truly want a forest themed reception with flowers all over the place. Then I want butterflies flying around us.” “All right. Then we will go with that,” said Klaud as he tried to think of a better place as their reception. “By the way, how many people will attend that day?” Dianna asked, thinking it should be maximized to fifty persons only. Klaud said, “Thousands of guests, I guess.” Shocked and confused, Dianna narrowed her eyes. She didn’t want it to be that fancy, but Klaud wanted the other way around. To clear
