Once again, I wake up without Gray by my side. I remain silent, gathering my senses before attempting to start my morning routine. I exhale a long breath, remembering what we did last night, which immediately prompts me to touch my slightly swollen and warm lips with my fingertips.Even now, in my bed, I can still sense Gray's lingering scent. I exhale my frustration, not knowing what possessed me last night to almost force Gray to attack me like that. I push back the covers, realizing I can't keep daydreaming like this. I need to get ready for school, or Rex will start complaining and whining about my habitual lateness.My bike has been in the repair shop for the past two days, and I have to be picked up by Rex again, which is annoying. For some reason, I'm more comfortable riding my bike without having to hear Rex's morning chatter. I start taking off my clothes one by one and head into the bathroom. The water hitting my body triggers memories of Gray's warm touches all over me. Jus
I immediately smiled upon seeing Maudy in front of me. "Since when did you come in?" I asked, unaware of her arrival. Annoyed, Maudy clicked her tongue before finally sitting down in the chair across from me."It's been a few minutes, I saw you smiling at your phone all by yourself. I guess you're exchanging messages with someone, considering how radiant your face looks," Maudy said, to which I only replied with a smile, refraining from telling her that I was actually exchanging messages with Gray."What's up?" I asked, causing Maudy to glance at the book in front of me momentarily."Are you busy?" she inquired."Yes, I have morning classes. Maybe they'll start in a few minutes, and after that, I have two more classes to attend. Why?" I asked when Maudy suddenly started looking for me."But not just that, I need your help," Maudy said, making me furrow my brows and look at her questioningly."Why do you need my help?" I asked to make sure."We can't talk about it here. What if I wait
As expected, this was incredibly challenging to complete. The books seemed unaffected, as if their number hadn't diminished at all despite the hours we spent organizing them. At this point, I had to muster the courage to climb the ladder to arrange some books on the higher shelves."I'm afraid of slipping from this ladder," I admitted, managing to pick up three books. I didn't dare take too many since these books were heavy and thick."Oh God, protect me," I muttered to myself as I began ascending the first step of the ladder. Technically, the steps weren't very high, but once I stood at the top and looked down, I was certain I wouldn't be able to climb back up if I came down. So, I focused only on the shelf in front of me. On my first attempt, I managed to conquer my fear. I went back to the table, grabbed more books, and pushed the ladder towards the shelf again. Unintentionally, my hand got closer to Ramon, who was still sleeping.I hoped he would just ignore me. Alright, after thi
Finally, after my insistence, Gray agreed to let me sit in the seat next to him. I didn't know what he was thinking when he came up with the idea of driving with me sitting on his lap earlier."Rex?" Gray asked as he resumed driving his car, making sure there wasn't any unpleasant smell he referred to lingering around me."It seems he had something else to attend to. He asked me to go home first," I replied, causing Gray to nod. He then turned to look at me, pushing my hair aside and proceeded to hold my hand, playing with his thumb on my palm. I just smiled. Somehow, Gray's small gestures made me feel happy."Have you eaten?" Gray asked, making me shake my head."Just had a few pieces of bread to fill my stomach when I was at the cafeteria. I didn't even have a chance to eat properly since Maudy dragged me to the library," I answered, making Gray click his tongue in annoyance."Ah, I should have warned her not to drag someone along like that," Gray said, seemingly irritated by Maudy'
I had just put Aurel to sleep when suddenly the door to my room opened, revealing Brenda and Rex standing at the doorway, irritating me immediately."Can't you guys let me rest for a moment?" I said, while looking down at Aurel who was curled up in my arms."Leave Aurel for now. We have to go to the Plantae Territory," Brenda said, causing me to raise an eyebrow at her."Why do I have to go to that forbidden area?" I asked, because I had only been allowed to cross the boundaries of the Neutral dimension so far. Could it be that Brenda had reported something to the king over there?"What did you report to your beloved father over there?" I questioned her."Come on, Gray. We can't just let you continue like this. We need assistance from them," Brenda said, causing me to peel back the blanket covering part of my body. I moved slowly so as not to wake Aurel, who was sleeping soundly."We'll talk outside. I don't want my soulmate to wake up just because of your pointless chatter," I said,
Ramon walked through a forest which was shrouded in darkness, there was no light or other living things that occupied that cursed place except for cursed and wasted creatures, that place was called nighthell, located in the north of wentira course where the Werewolf's territory was. "Did you get something?" Someone asked when Ramon was facing him, Ramon stared at the straight back of the man who had his back turned to him. During these decades he had to be wasted in nighthell and out of his pack because of the great crime he had committed. "Yes" Ramon replied making the man finally turn around, Ramon was still not used to the appearance of the man he should call his uncle. Half of his face was destroyed leaving half of his handsome face but it was all in vain because no matter how many times Ramon met him he was still reluctant to face his uncle for long. He looked enthusiastic when he got news from Ramon "What is it?" Erebus asked "I've found Gray's soulmate" Ramon replied making
I immediately jolted from my sleep when I saw Gray who was stabbed by someone right in the heart made my whole body tremble and cold sweat soaked my whole body until I finally tried to open my eyes “Are you okay? Did you have a bad dream? A familiar voice that made me immediately looked to my side where Gray was looking worriedly, he immediately complained The side of my face that was filled with sweat " youre here? I asked making Gray nod his head "Yes, I continue to be by your side while you sleep. Did you have a bad dream?" Gray asked making me nod my head immediately, I don't know why lately I often dream of things that are outside my head as if I go in and out of another dimension like what Gray often does. "This time, what dream is bothering you?" Asked Gray who really knew if I had a bad dream, I always told every detail of the dream I had and he always calmed me down that it was just a Sleeping Flower but this time it really looked real as if Gray would really disappear in
Gray then brought his face closer to the crook of my neck so I could only close my eyes and inhale Gray's scent that blended with me"You're wrong Aurel. Because for me this is also the first time, I don't know what you've heard out there but I can't do this. If it's not with my soulmate, that's what happens in the werewolf world," Gray said after looking at my sad face. be close to him"Do you believe me?" Gray's question made me finally nod, looks like I should ask him after we're done with what we're going to do, I'm still not sure and there are still many questions I want to ask him "So if I make a mistake and if I hurt you you can push me or hit me in any way so I can stop because I have a little difficulty holding myself back let alone holding Alpha later" Gray said making me nod again again, I don't know why I immediately thought that this time I'll do it with one person who has two souls What does that mean with two different people I thought making Gray smile, looks like he
