WadeKnowing that most of the missing cases happening insdie the Moonlight Pack only involves females, only made me miserably worrying about Lily.I spent the past days investigating further because I cannot wait any longer and wait Lily to be involved or worse went missing.“Don’t you think we are going deeper and getting nonsense investigating this Pack?” “Everything make sense. We just gotta connect them all,” I utter, arranging the thick bunch of papers Matthew had just brought.He was right when he said that our investigations were going deeper because I started considering witch crafts and anything related to magics. At first, I thought the unreasonable poorness of the Moonlight Pack is simply just because someone powerful inside the Pack were robbing them, but after finding out the missing cases, I came to realize it wasn’t just that simple.“There were rumours that the Moonlight Pack was once cursed.” “You said it yourself, Wade. Rumors, there were no tangible proof you can
Lily“What?!” I couldn’t hide the shock with my voice. “But why?” My emotions was mixed with anger, frustration, and confusion at the same time.“It would be better.” “No! Everything were going just fine here, Aiden. There is no other reason we will relocate Pack after spending my twins childhood here.”“This will be the best for them, don’t you want tha—”“I decide for what’s best with my twins!”I just couldn’t understand him at all. At first, he didn’t want me to accept the job I got at the Packhouse, and now that we are seem to be getting used without Wade, here he comes suggesting another drastic change. I am just thinking about Evan and Zoey.“The Pack I am talking about is way better than the Moonlight Pack. You can have more opportunities there and—” “I won’t leave this Pack,” I cut him off with finality.“Lily, you gotta think about thi–”“Please leave, Aiden. I have made up my mind and we won’t ever relocate in any other Pack,” I lastly added, turning my back on him as I
LilyI had already sacrificed a lot for them and I wouldn’t hesitate to sacrifice more. My somber life as a wolfless single mother may be hard, but at least I got my twins to put sunshine on my dull life. They’re the main reason I’ve got to keep going no matter what.As soon as I pushed the glass door open, the chit-chatting voice of my other co-worker shut down. Their squinted eyes were fixed on me as I bowed down to greet them, but instead, they moved away from me as if I were infectious before their mocking laughter reached my ear.Ignoring them, I went to the staff room and put on my apron because the restaurant would open anytime soon.The door pushed open, letting my coworker barge in.“I don’t feel well, so I’m gonna ask you to fill in for me today,” she arrogantly began, crossing her arms across her chest.I simply nodded in response.“You were the only one who’s gonna serve the customers and wash the dishes later. Do you get it?”“Yes, I hope you feel better soon,” I replied,
LilyThe feeling of having everything in place feels more than happiness. Being an excellent college student who almost had everything in life, from a single mother and a college dropout out was the biggest slump in my life I couldn’t regret.It felt like all of my dreams had vanished in a snap I couldn’t even process everything at the moment. I could still vividly remember every single thing like a fresh memory from yesterday.My heart was pounding along with my intertwined sweaty hands as I continued on praying inside my head.Though I knew I had done everything for this, I was still nervous because I couldn’t afford to fail.“And we have Lily Miller, as the top student of this class.” My professor’s announcement rang through my ears again and again as my worries were replaced by relief.I couldn’t contain my happiness and as soon as my eyes found Wade leaning by the railing of the stairs, waiting outside my classroom, I rushed and wrapped my arms around his neck tightly.“Woah,” h
LilyI shouldn’t care about his true reason for coming here, and if he’s truly looking for someone, I should just hope I wouldn’t cross paths with him again.Pulling a monoblock chair with me, I placed it in the little corner beside the restroom to eat my lunch. I usually spent my lunch break here, just so my coworker would leave me alone.I was quietly eating when a sudden cold water that dripped down my face, jolted me awake.“What now, Sarah?!” I couldn’t help but to rose my voice in frustration.“Oops! I’m sorry,” she snickered before splattering the remaining water on my face.Letting out a deep sigh, I gathered my things and stood up to simply leave her while I still had patience left with me. But as soon as I stepped away, her hands clutched my wrist, pulling me back to face her.“Where do you think you’re going? There’s a customer outside you need to serve.”“It’s my lunch break, Sarah. You were supposed to serve those customers outside,” I quickly responded, drawing my wrist
LilyI kept my back on him with my eyes pinned on the ground. Tons of emotions rushed through me and even so, I was wolfless, I am certain it was Wade. My feet were stuck, afraid to make any movements that would allow him to see me.“Oh, you’re here early, Alpha,” the sarcasm was audible in Hans’ voice.“So here is where I would be staying?” he sharply repeated. The coldness in his voice scared me even more. There were so many what if’s filling my thought maybe because I knew I was at fault for leaving him years ago.“Yes! What do you think of this beautiful place we’ve prepared for you?” Hans walked sideways to face Wade behind me.Staying still to wait for his response, however, I got nothing aside from footsteps receding away from me.“Hey, why are you two crying?”I looked back to see whom Wade was talking to, and my jaw dropped seeing him kneeling down in front of crying Evan and Zoey.“We were being kicked out of our home,” Zoey sniffled with her shaking shoulders.“And we’ve
LilyI couldn’t tell how long I stared at him blankly, empty thought, just thinking what could possibly happen to him that he forgets me.One thing is for sure, there’s a huge part of me that felt disappointed and sorrowful how come he just forgot me too soon?“Alright, we should get your things back before dusk,” he interrupts before walking past me.If he truly already forgets about me, then I wouldn’t mind reminding him anymore.Maybe I should start seeing these things as a good thing. It would be better and easier for me to live with him if he didn’t remember me at all, right?It didn’t take him long enough to bring back most of our things inside. I started cleaning as well when he got back with two duffel bags in his hand which seemed to be his belongings.“I’ll have the other room for you cleaned,” I offered, looking at the two duffel bags on his hands.He simply looked at me and without waiting for his response, I turned away to clean the room for him.Even though I badly wante
LilyMy heart leaped out, with my throat running dry as I couldn’t find the right words to answer his question.I was more than shocked by his first question, and I was completely lost when he added, “Or are the kids mine?”“No,” that word escaped my mouth quickly without even thinking twice. “No, the twins are not yours,” I continued, below whisper.“Look at how quickly you can deny that they’re not mine, but too afraid to even answer my first question,” he scoffed, shaking his head in disappointment.As soon as his feet stepped forward to reach me, my foot then took a step back.“Tell me, Lily. Just tell me. Why can’t you tell me?”I was praying that he’d stop moving forward, but my back had already touched the wall and still Wade kept on consuming our distance.His right hand made their way onto my left cheek, gently caressing it.“Why?” he questioned, leaning in closer.Placing my hands over his shoulder, I moved my face away from his touch. I knew if I dare to resist his gentle t
