“Alpha,” Sol called me out, “What’s your plan for the upcoming tournament? Are you going to allow them to have their mages join us?”
“Alpha,” one of the warriors at the back shouted, “It would be a disadvantage for us.”
“But we will still be at an advantage since the competition will be held on our turf,” another warrior shouted.
“But still,” another warrior shouted, “magic is magic. We don’t have a mage on our team, I think it’s unfair.”
“I already negotiated with the Alphas from Purple Hill,” I said, “I requested that there will be no mage who will join the competition.”
“I don’t think th
I am not drunk. Or so I think. I am not sure if it was because the margaritas finally decided to kick in or if was it because of something that’s entirely unrelated to alcohol. I decided that it was the margaritas. It’s always better to blame it on the alcohol. How can I not, when I started to feel like my world is spinning? Like everything around me is moving in circles giving me a headache. A clear indication or symptoms of someone who is drunk. “Are you okay?” Seth asked as he pulls out of the parking lot. “Yeah,” I stammer as I roll down the window. The cold air hits my skin but it was not enough to wake up my senses. Instead, it felt like I was getting more drunk. “Aren’t you cold?” Seth asks. “Nope!” I answered as I shake my head. My sudden movement made me dizzy but for some weird reason, I start to feel happy. “Lana, Lana, Lana,” he said, calling my name. “What?” I asked defensively. I wanted to sound irritated, and the truth is I am usually irritated with people wh
I never thought I would hear those words from anyone at all. I never thought that someone would even consider telling me those words. But that’s not the worse of it. Because the worse of it was what I did after hearing those words. I took one look at him, without saying a word before I opened the door of Calvin’s truck and rushed out to the bushes at the side of the road. And started to vomit, I feel everything that I drank and the little food that I ate come rushing out of my body through my mouth. “Are you okay, Lana?” Seth said coming to my side. But unfortunately, my mouth was pretty occupied to give him an answer. I feel one of his hands holding my hair so that it won’t get in the way of the toxic bombs that’s been coming out of my mouth non-stop. “Sorry,” was the first word that I said the moment my torment subsided. “Can you stand?” Seth asks and I gave him a nod since that was the only thing I can manage right now. I leaned on Seth as he helped me walk toward Calvin’s
There are moments in our lives when we found ourselves surrounded by people and still feel so alone. These kinds of feelings and thoughts can sometimes drive you to the edge. Just like where I am standing now. I don’t know why I am standing on the edge of the cliff of a mountain, so high that you can’t even see the bottom of it. The wind is cold but it didn’t bother me. Maybe because I am already numb or maybe because I was too used to being so alone and cold and betrayed. “Lana,” someone whispered my name. It was so clear but not that loud enough. “Lana,” the same voice whispers my name. If I jump now, would all my misery end? Would my cracked skull, broken ribs, arms, and legs hurt less than my broken heart? “Lana,” the same warm and angelic voice called, but instead of ignoring it again, I turned around. The moment my eyes met his, a smile broke his handsome face as he reach out his hand to me. The courageous part of me tells me that everything will be okay if only I hav
Wake up, Lana!My inner demonic child calls out to me. I know that she’s currently making fun of me as we speak. She finds it funny whenever I place myself in uncomfortable situations.Wake up, Lana!This time, it’s my rational self who’s waking me up. I know it might sound like I am crazy, but I am not. Because the truth is told, every person has their own inner voice that always tells them a lot of things about everything that happens in one’s life.Rise and shine, Lana!My seductive inner goddess calls me out using the most seductive voice that she can come up with. Sometimes she just thinks that she’s so sexy when in reality there was nothing sexy about
There are times when I do not wake up. When I just want to fall into an indefinite sleep. And today is one of those days. Instead, of bringing me home Nori brought me to his and Calvin’s. Yup, the two of them have stayed together for a long time.“Nori,” I can hear Calvin trying to explain, “I am telling you that it’s all my fault.”“Yes!” Nori shouted, “How could you entrust Lana to someone you don’t even know.”“Are you accusing me of being an irresponsible friend?” Calvin said angrily.“What else should I call you then?” Nori snickers. This is not the Nori that I know of. Nori would never hurt Calvin. He would never do that.
“Stop staring at me, Calvin,” I said as I sat on his bed, “You’re going to bore a hole in my face.”“I just can’t believe what just happened,” Calvin said with amazement. I lay down on his bed as I try to remember how the scene unfold. Calvin’s face was filled with horror and the surprised look on Nori’s face was priceless.I remember the warning that Nori gave me. It was supposed to be a warning and yet it felt like he was cutting ties with me.*****‘This is the last time I will be coming to save you, Lana,’ Nori said, ‘If you keep on doing what you want and stop listening to me, I will never come again to save you.’‘Save me from what, Nori?’ I asked angrily, &
People think that I am very calm and understanding. Well. some of it may be true but just everyone else, I am not perfect. Because I really hate it when people take something that’s mine.I know that I would have fought back, that I would have not let that stupid wolf take my Mate away from me. But what can I do? After hearing my Mate’s request who am I to disagree with? I can’t really go against my Mate’s wishes. Because my priority will always be my Mate’s happiness.“Boss,” Sol called me out angrily as he came into the bar, “Why would you let that arrogant scumbag treat you like that?”“Treat me like what?” I ask him back without hiding the disappointment in my voice. I kept myself busy as I continue wiping the glasses that we were goin
The moment that Calvin opened the door, I knew that we were not as welcomed as we were like the first time we came here. And I also know that I can’t really blame them after what happened with Nori earlier. Nori was not only rude, but he was also an arrogant prick. “Don’t you guys have eyes?” The man with raven hair asks us, and there was nothing friendly about his tone, “We are still closed. Which means that we do not accept anyone, especially outsiders to come into our bar.” “You should go,” The big scary-looking guy said. He looks intimidating but instead of feeling any fear for him, all I felt was tenderness in his voice, which makes him not scary to me at all. I walk in front of Calvin and spoke before he can. “We came here to apologize,” I said as I bowed my head in front of the raven-haired guy, I was about to say the speech I had prepared in my head on the way here, but I was interrupted by the voice I came to know so well. “You don’t need to do that,” he said. I follo
