Obsessed With A Secret Mate

My past dawned on me, making me feel reserved and engulfed in loneliness. My eyes were completely closed as the past travelled back into my senses with clear flashes of emotion. I shook my head. That was exactly when Angus noticed me. "What keeps bothering you?" Angus's voice was a bang in my ears, suddenly driving me back to my consciousness. "It's a long story, Angus," I muttered. "What is it, darling?" Angus responded, squatting beside me. "You can't relate," I said, blinking with emotional pity for myself. "I'm going out for hunting, Ellie," Angus said, his voice light but clear. He stood up and smiled as he made to leave. "I'll be right back. Please forget whatever hurtful memories you have in your head right now." I was surprised. Angus didn't force me to say what was going on in my mind. I was left to feel the fearful memories alone. The voice of those fierce beasts reverberated in my ears. I could clearly recall how they tore my only mother to pieces. Why I was ma

"It's dark here!" I grumbled, rushing out of my bed. Initially, I thought it was just a dream all that while. Not just a cage, Angus had built me a shelter. But, it was a dull day, partially bright. As usual, the entire land of Arleta covered almost dark places only. It was believed that there was a powerful moon that controlled the land and always empowered the rogues and beasts. I walked out of my room, trying to go and check on Angus. My footsteps hit very loudly on the ground so that I had to stop and look back. I wasn't free with him yet. But I was often in pain whenever he left and I was lonely again. Why would my mother's situation keep hitting me always in my ears? "Anyone?" I asked, keeping mute after that. I first thought Angus was the one intentionally chasing me. I knew he loved playing with me in such a way. Suddenly, I heard another sound of footsteps. Not mine. I knew too well that it wasn't mine. But, it also didn't sound like a strong man's footsteps li

In the wake of a glistening morning, as the sun cast mild warmth on the mountain ranges. A sudden rattling noise was heard, nearly shaking the ground. The trees were moving around as their branches kept dwindling in the loose atmosphere, affrighting me. I was attracted to standing up. I couldn't remember if I was deep asleep or not. The noise was enough to jab me on my arms and wake me up. Slowly and slightly, I opened the window to see outside. "Huh?" I sighed, my voice rapidly stepped down by the overwhelming noise. It had been months now. My eyes were sore and wet from the tears that wiped my chin, the day before. Angus had left me for a very long time and wouldn't even try to reach me. I had been left alone again. Who would I call? I wondered how I would survive the aggravated situation. Instantly, as I was down in thoughts, unseen wolves began to snarl very loudly. I shut the window back, held the ring Angus gave to me as an amulet, before leaving. I threw it round my neck w

Time elapsed the moment of my situation, and it was like the entire space of Arleta only existed at a glance. The full moon appeared, casting a dark cloud around me that I couldn't even understand where I was. My eyes blinked as I stood up and I felt someone sleep beside me, turning and rubbing me hard. I wiped my face with a towel and discovered it was Angus. "Angus?" I called out his name, my voice coming out with pauseless breaths. "How did you get here?" "I was all around you all these days…" Angus replied, holding me by my palms as he felt the pulse. "Why are you so bothered? Were you scolded by any wolf?" I noticed Angus's curiosity. I would only hurt myself if I didn't answer him. I returned, my voice intentionally lowered, "I was haunted by many of them. Even Thane…" "Alpha Thane?" Angus questioned, his hands dropping by his sides in wonder. "That brutal wolf came to meet you?" "Angus…" I said, breathing pitifully. "I wonder why you left me trying to escape from that bru

The clouds retired into the sky, folding up and wrapping the day up. I was outside my new apartment, hoping I would find someone to play or speak with. I was disturbed even by the splashing waters of the sea, almost drowning the bank where I was, looking here and there. It was a delicate time of my life, where I needed Angus the most. "Ahhh…" I made a sound, breathing hard as I placed my hands by my waist, concerned about my lonely state. Before I knew it, I heard a noise from behind, attracting me without a rethink. I had to look back, but to my amazement, I didn't see anyone or anything. I wondered. "Who are you?" I asked, turning around as my words only fled into the air. "Come out, whoever is there!" "Ellie!" The voice returned, but I didn't still see anyone. I was curious and so eager to move closer. I could imagine myself in a haven, if it was Angus. "I am responding…" I replied, my voice lowered in pity and uncertainty. "Is that you, Angus?" "Yes!" The voice replied, so
