Everyone was excited about the upcoming tournament. Everyone but me. I look across the room and watch the person that means the most to me talking with my best friend. Or so I thought. After our last encounter, a part of me wanted to end our friendship, then and there. But Drake and Leon stepped in and made us apologize to each other. A lot of our warriors are now afraid of me. I used to be a jolly outgoing person but after my announcement of my Chosen Mate, my mood became so unpredictable. Especially whenever I see Lana with Calvin. I know that if there was someone that I should be trusting it should be him, but seeing Lana happy with him makes me feel something I haven’t felt in my whole life. Honestly, I didn’t know that I would even feel like this but here I am watching them from afar, wanting nothing else but to be the way we used to be. ‘Have you already forgotten why we’re in this situation?’ my wolf Zeus angrily hissed at me.‘We could have been there, laughing with them, f
Today is the day of the tournament and for the first time, I am nervous. It feels kind of weird to feel this way though. Because I am always confident with myself and my team. But today is the first tournament against another pack that Lana and Calvin were not part of. My most trusted allies now have a world of their own. “Are you ready?” Drake asks. There was a time when this question didn’t mean anything to me. A time when this question was just like any other question that I can confidently answer. But today is not one of those days. Today that question placed so much pressure not only on me but also on the rest of the pack. So instead of giving Drake my usual overconfident answer, I just nod at him. He stood there in silence as he stare at me before finally saying, “Let’s just do our best.” He placed his hand over my shoulder and gave it a little squeeze before talking to other warriors. It was a common practice for Purple Hill to have a small parade of warriors before the tour
I watch the bright blue sky turn into an orange hue and I know that we only have a few more minutes left to prepare. Everyone started to take their places but there was only one position I was interested in. The place where Lana would be located. I know that nothing would happen to her and if Calvin was with her, which I know he is, she will surely be safe because Calvin won’t let anything bad happen to her. I don’t know what’s happening to me, all I know is that I am worried about Lana because this will be the first time that we’ll be encountering the Black Moon Pack. “Nori,” I turned towards the direction from where the voice came. I watch as Dana came running towards me. “I made it,” she said smiling at me, “I thought that I’ll never get to see you before you enter the arena.” She was almost out of breath when she reached me but she was still smiling. I motioned for one of the warriors who was assigned as water boy to throw me a bottle. “Nice catch,” Dana said beaming at me
There are a lot of things in my life that question. A lot of things that most of the time I end up regretting. I know that I am a very impulsive person but despite the rush decisions that I make, I always make sure of one thing. To keep those people who are important to me safe. That’s all that matters to me. But there are times when my ways might seem a little far-fetched for some but for me, it was something that I have thought about over and over again. It was not something I take lightly, especially if it meant that I will be protecting the people I love. But unfortunately, not all of my plans are meant to end the way I have envisioned them. But one thing’s for sure, it has served its initial purpose, and that is to protect the people I treasure. Which leads me to the position that I am in right now. ‘Nori,’ Drake shouted in the mind link, ‘We are stuck here at the east, they came in prepared and strong. Almost all of our rookie warriors are held captive.’ ‘Damn it!’ I hear
The night is cold and the dark blue sky was filled with shining lights. Just a few weeks from now the tournament will begin. And I am feeling more uneasy about it as the day comes close. I haven’t spoken to Nori since the day of our fight. The truth is that I have been avoiding him. To tell you the truth I don’t have enough reason why I keep my distance from him. Not because I am still angry at him or I haven’t moved on. It was because I don’t have anything nice thing to say to him.On the other hand, Seth hadn’t called or made contact since the day we left that cozy house. My inner goddess keeps telling me that he was just waiting for me to do the first move. But doing that was never my style. That’s why I ended up being friend-zoned. But then, that’s really not the problem, right? Because if Seth does make a move and reach out for my hand, I am not sure if I will be brave enough to take it. ‘Your problem is you haven’t gotten laid,’ the quietness I was enjoying slowly slipped as m
I have always loved surprises. I love to receive surprise gifts that I have been longing for months. I love to hear good surprise news because they give me hope, inspiration, and happiness. But there are times when I hate the surprise that I receive. Like the surprise, Nori gave me when he chose his Chosen Mate. But I never thought that I will receive a much bigger surprise than that. I stare at the bare back of the man I have known since we were young but I have never seen him grow this big. ‘Damn, now I know why you have been obsessing over this guy now,’ my inner goddess said happily. ‘Shut up,’ I shouted at her in panic. I carefully got out of bed and silently looked for my clothes. I made sure that I was careful not to wake up the sleeping man on the bed. After making sure that I have everything and was about to get out of the room, I hear Nori stir making me turn and look at him. I can’t leave like this, this is wrong. Although I am not really sure what happened last nig
Sometimes when you least expect it life happens…It will catch you in the most unexpected time at the most unexpected moment and it will push you to your limits unable to know what to do or what choice to make. It’s been almost two weeks and here I am staring in front of the mirror while standing on the cold bathroom floor, holding a white stick in my hand as I wait for three minutes to get done.I know that it’s a bit earlier than most humans to check if they are pregnant but I am not like most humans right? ‘What if were pregnant?’ my anxious self asks as she hides behind my inner goddess. ‘That’s impossible!’ my inner goddess screams, ‘how can we be pregnant when I didn’t even feel we have sex? Like, come on!’’I can feel her anger and frustration. And I understand where she’s coming from. I still can’t remember everything that happened. Only a few images but it was not enough for me to finally make a conclusion. The sound of the alarm on my phone interrupted my messed-up thoug
Love. Love is the four-letter word that makes the world go round. For some, it’s the only thing that keeps them sane. They say it gives them the strength they needed to survive life. But it is also the reason why most of them fall apart. For me, love is not for the weak but for the brave who are not afraid to face it head-on. For people who are not afraid to take risks and accept the consequences of their choices. Love is for the people who look for it and grab it, instead of just sitting around waiting for it or someone to come and swept them off their feet. Because the moment that you make that choice will also be the moment that will change your life. I look at Seth as he smiles at me while the words I longed to hear from someone else. But here he is, telling me that he loves me, without even knowing what he’s getting himself into. “How can you say those words so easily?” I asked. “I don’t just say it easily,” Seth said with a chuckle as continued to look ahead, “I only s
