NALANIAll the fear I felt for Ross was replaced by comfort. He proved himself to me that he is not that bad. Whatever I heard from Travis, Madame Hale, the man in black in the woods and the woman guarding the store below this place about him and his pack's rule, I now believe more in what I saw. A Ross who has gone through a lot and trying to adjust himself to the taste of food is unlikely to make such a mistake. He is very sensitive, especially with his emotions. The way I watch him while eating, I can see how hard it is for him to swallow it.I'm just not sure if depression causes a victim's taste to change over time. He was not sick, except for that. He eats too slow, especially to swallow. He can't always be like this, and even more so he can't eat noodles. But right now, I have no choice but to let him be full. He needs to eat. I have skills on how to convince a patient to eat. This is one of my studies and this is what I am doing now, but it's a bit casual compared to being pro
ROSS I want to consider this day as the best day, but there is a part of me that Nalani's care for me is in addition to my mistake. I shouldn't be happy, I don't want to take advantage her situation for me just to be with her. If she remembered everything, I'm sure I wouldn't be able to see her smiles for me now. She won't put food on my plate, proof that she cares. She does this right in front of Travis and Liam. As for Liam, he likes what he sees, I know his goal is to bring us back to what we were before. He knows nothing of what really happened. This is also one of his ways to know everything. But Travis, I see nothing but hatred in him. He didn't like what we are now, and he just convey it with a smirk to slap me for what I'm doing is wrong and pathetic. While Nalani, keeps giving me hope. She does what she knows she should do. This is what I don't want, she cares about me because she knows we are mates. She wanted me to be remembered because she thought it should be. I feel hu
NALANIIt was like I was in a place where everything around me was mine but can get at least one. When it comes to rights, I really have the right to know myself. They should tell me who I really am. I know Alpha Liam is helping me to remember. But Ross and Travis, I'm not sure if they're the same reason since they both don't want me to know anything about my past, especially about that Art. It's like he's one of the big part of what happened back then.They stopped Alpha Liam from telling me about him. Since the Alpha didn't know anything about what really happened, he had to lie low about giving me information. He respected them, especially their feelings. It was also surprising to know that not only Ross suffered for 8 years but also Travis and I don't know, they said I was missing. Ross knew the answer to this but he had no plan to open his mouth to say it. And again, I need to understand them that it seems like every information is sensitive and needs to be handled slowly.Since
NALANI "What the hell are you doing?!"Like an instant, like a magnet, Ross pulled me away from Travis. He hugged me around my belly and my feet didn't touch the grass. He was carrying me like a mannequin doll that he had been keeping for a long time. I don't know, it's hard to react to this situation. My heart beat faster, I couldn't breathe properly because aside from the tension, his arms are hugging my belly tightly."You know that she's my mate!" I can feel the strength of his heartbeat against my back, I can also feel in his breathing the intense anger that he is trying to suppress. Travis just stared at him and his eyes flickered on my feet. I also held Ross' arm gently to convince him to put me down; because he didn't seem to realize that he was lifting me.Travis' eyes returned to him saying, "That's almost." He grinned at me, I gulped down and just like he said that 'almost' I also feel that. Ross brought me down causing me to breathe a sigh of relief but the tension was st
NALANIFollowing my meal plan, after chopping the different types of veggies, they were washed and segregated on a sheet pan and shoved into the oven to cook for the right amount of time. Instead of black rice, I just considered white since my clients are not human. I don't have to be strict when it comes to food because they don't get sick. The purpose of me being a dietitian here is to console Ross and Alpha Liam has a goal to fulfill. I now understand everything and my profession as a dietitian is just bonus for this situation. I'm here for Alpha Liam to fix everything, to help me remember, to help Ross and Travis to move on. To return to the old destroyed family of Alpha Liam and friendship that was solid before but is broken now.I also prepared salmon and made a sauce to coat it. I was in the middle of my concentration on cooking, my eyes caught the figure of the man leaning against the frame door of the kitchen. I flickered my eyes at him for a moment and suddenly I felt uneas
NALANI When Alpha Liam walked in, my blood ran cold. It seemed that cold hands held me to prevent myself from moving even by taking a simple step. But despite this tension, Travis still acts normal and actually shrugs as he says, "Game? Maybe, turning my bestfriend as my mate, to torture my cousin's feeling until he drains, runs out of tears and dies of sadness. Of course, to give you more stress, Brother." He chortled. "Right? That's what you all want and have been doing for years."I expected Alpha Liam to strangle him, or take out his claws and scratch his face but Alpha Liam just scanned him from head to toe and asked, "What do you really want, Travis?""I like Nalani. I want her to be my mate." He answered frankly. "Is there something wrong with that?""She's Ross' mate, you know that," Alpha Liam Retorted and didn't take his eyes off him.Travis resists through smirking. "Mate?" He scoffs and feigning to ruffle his hair. "Humans have no mate. They have the right to choose who t
ROSSFury washing all over me. Blythe my gamma's daughter, kissed me on the lips right in front of Hale's Flowershop.After I barked her with my thundering voice that should scare her, I clenched my fist to prevent Darth from taking over me. He is more aggressive than me when it comes to emotion. Nevertheless, I'm scared for Nalani's reaction. She saw, what Blythe did and that surely caused her to jump to an automatic conclusion. I've lost her for five years and now that I've found her, I won't let her lose me again. Seeing her again was a great gift to me from the moon goddess, proof that she still cares about me. I won't waste it on just one misunderstanding. Blythe is on edge looking at me as her throat moved up and down due to her swallowing full of fear. Knowing her motive, I know she needs me for his position as Luna.For her, she had a great chance to get what she wanted when Nalani disappeared. She always made me feel that she cared and that's when I understood her actions; w
NALANIRunning my fingers through my hair, trying to ignore the pain I feel, I huffed glancing at the back of Ross who was walking back to his car. Feeling sorry, feeling guilty, yet convincing myself that I said the right reason towards him but honestly, I want to cry. I feel like I can feel the pain he feels because of what I said. I don't want to hate myself, but that's how I felt.I want to lift my leg and run to give him a hug from behind, but I can't do that. Travis is here, surely watching my reaction. I feigning glaring behind Ross, I force myself to huff to convey to him that he is not the only one I hate but Ross too, but honestly I don't hate Ross and I have plans to talk to him later. But that doesn't mean I underestimated Travis. Actually, I wonder if he has an idea about my plan for later. He will commit mistakes face to face to his cousin, and he is actually reminding us to prepare as if he will bring a deluge into our lives, that's the proof that he's better at deceiv
