MasukLENA.“Don’t…Don’t touch me!” I yelled, pulling back on my butt. Hot tears ran down my cheeks. My palm was bruised now because I was not on a smooth floor. It was a fucking gravel with broken branches that tore at my flesh and my hands hurt like shit. But this scary man in front of me kept stalking towar me, trying to catch me. Fucking Royce. I had fallen when I was running from him. Now I was trapped in the forest. Now, he was walking toward me with those predatory steps and murderous eyes. Stay away from me, please. Stay away!Tears streamed down my cheeks, My body was trembling with intense fear. My body was tired and about to give up on me. “Nobody is going to save you now, Lena. Nobody.” He laughed … his deep laughter seeped through. Penetrated every part of me. Sick. Dangerous. I could barely even look in his eyes. He was evil. He hid all this darkness behind his playfulness. Who would have thought he was such an evil man? My body had already given up on me at this time. I
ALEXANDER.The game started and all the kids began to cheer. I looked up at Isna, who was clapping with her two little palms and jumping with her cute little feet. She looked super happy, her eyes were glinting with joy. Israel stood next to her. Hands in his black khaki trousers, shades on … looking unbothered. He lifted one hand, gave me the thumbs-up sign, and pocketed it right back. I chuckled. A real one. Not forced. No pretense. My heart pumped blood even more, reacting to them like they weren’t mere strangers. I barely knew them so why was I feeling this way toward them? Why? “Did the twins' mother hire you to come represent her children?” A voice sounded behind me which made me look over my shoulder to see who had spoken. It was a white skinned guy, brown hair and over six feet tall. He was chest-naked, staring at me like he would pounce on me if I said anything wrong. Who the hell was this bastard? He had the most arrogant smirk on his lips, and the way he was bent, it
LENA. I walked down the quiet and narrow hallway that had rows of rooms. The rooms were too quiet and it was so obvious that no one occupied the space. I constantly looked back over my shoulders making sure no one was coming behind me. Allyson had said that it was the last room in the hallway so I stalked closer, walking as quietly as possible. I didn't want to be caught. My heart hammered in my chest, and I wondered what I was going to find in the room. The last room’s door was isolated. You could barely tell there was another room. The door looked old. I knocked on it gently over and over, while looking around making sure no one was heading my way. After knocking several times, there was no reply so I twisted the knob but the door did not budge. As expected, it was locked. This was where learning how to pick locks came in handy. I had watched over a twenty videos teaching me how to use hair pin to pick a lock. I quickly crouched in front of the lock, taking out my hairpin fr
ALEXANDER. I found myself in my car heading to a different pack from mine. I never really crossed the pack border, not even for vacation, I was always working. But this time, I crossed it from some kids who threatened to ruin my reputation if I didn't. I really want to see their mother, I really need to know how she trained those kids and why they were so sharp-tongued. “Yet, you have never crossed borders for your kids, never!” My subconscious rang at me and I frowned. They were always going on vacation with their mother, begging me to leave work and go with them. It had never been of interest to me. I might say I felt threatened but I knew very well that I could pull strings that would exempt me from those things. “Wait, you are coming for real?” Asked Isna, the female. The boy’s name was Israel and he talked less than the girl. “Yeah, almost at your pack,” I said. “We are on neutral ground.” The boy chipped it and I wasn't even surprised, he was always chipping in to correct
LENA. Don't panic, Lena. Don't break, not now. Tears welled in my eyes after I had to send Alexander away. I couldn't be with him. I couldn’t be with my mate. I had to pretend like I didn't want to see him. Getting to my apartment, I dropped to the floor, unable to stop the tears from flowing down my cheeks. My hands were trembling, and I could tell it was because I had chased my mate away from myself. I had told him not to come near me. My body was damaged. My soul was crused, ever since I used my hands to kill him - at least I thought that I did- my body had turned against me, and now it felt like my body didn't belong to me anymore. Being with him even for a few moments always restored balance within me. I knew he was all I needed to heal, but he wasn't mine anymore. He no longer belonged to me. My phone beeped in my bag, which tumbled over next to me. It rang over and over before I stretched my hand and picked it up. It was the home number—the phone we left for the kids to be
ALEXANDER. “Don’t look away from me.” I grabbed her chin and pulled her to look at me. Her body trembled, her lips kept quivering. I wanted to kiss them, but didn’t want to scare her. I wanted her to be comfortable with me. To stay with me, yet she kept trying to leave. So, I actually just let the silence sit between us. She had a lot of baggage, and I wanted her to help her carry it, but she wouldn’t let me. She wouldn’t tell me why she was crying. She wouldn't let me touch her. She…So, I watched. I let her cry next to me. Allowing her to wallow in her sadness while serving as an absorber and listening to her silent words. Watching her chest rise and fall. I wanted to pull her to me so bad and be a chest for her to lie on, but I respected her privacy, and we sat there in silence until she was done.After I drove her home, I was glad she even let me know where she lived. Once the car halted, she tried to escape instantly, but I grabbed her hand. Shivers jolt up my spine, and
