15- What is wrong with me?

I woke up in a dimly lit room, covered by a blanket that kept me warm.A beautiful pattern design on the ceiling with a chandelier hung in the center.

I push myself up and lean back against the headboard in an attempt to relax myself as my eyes scan the small but cozy room.

Unlike a common room filled with nightstand, mirror, closet.This only had a bed which is weird considering the interior of it.

Shrugging it off, I attempt to get out of the bed.However freezing when the door opened, revealing an old woman clad in a soft pink gown with her long dark hair resting down to her thighs.

Goddess! She is gorgeous even at such an age.

"You are up" She says, her tone monotonous and face a blank canvas.

"Yes, thankyou for—

"I doubt you are using the correct word" She cuts me off, gracefully walking inside the room.I blink in confusion.

"I'm sorry I don't—

"Now you got it right, darling" She says, crossing her arms and observing me very keenly.

"An apology is a way to start a conversation to th

    "What? I think I misheard you" I say, gulping down a lump in my throat.His eyes glued to my frame like a hunter staring at its prey.I feel uncomfortable, foremost scared."In case you are thinking 'oh shoot this human knows me' then don't.I am a werewolf as well, in fact, The Gamma in this Pack.You look like you don't really know where to go or what to do which itself would lead you to danger if left alone" He says, tapping his fingers on the steering wheel."Oh.. that's a relief" Is it though?"But Sir, you don't have a scent.How come?" I should have been able to sense him."We wear blockers here because of werewolves Hunter.This is why, it's better you stick with me.Now let's go, Alpha is waiting for us" He explained, taking his seatbelt off before hopping out of the car.I do the same and follow him inside what supposed to be a building.Luciano gets a formal greeting from the staff and talks to one of the receptionist.Heavy and curious gazes weighed me down.But I avoid looking at t

  • Rising From The Ashes   17- Luciano 's Advantages

    Two weeks have passed with me in The Moonstone charm.Not once did my wolf respond to me and if it was not already bad, my attempts to shift resulted in failure as well.I am distraught at this point with everything going on in my life.Luciano, the man I perceived as a nice helpful father figure, turned out to throw a bombshell on me.I have noticed how he observes me from time to time, his eyes have glowed once a while every time we talk, although I try to keep the conversation short.From a couple of days, he has started to get too close to me despite my discomfort, despite the fact that he is way older than me.To make the matter worse, I can't do anything regarding his intentions.He holds a powerful position in the Pack, in the Human realm that if I do anything against his liking, there are high chances I could go through the same fate I did with Nikona.It's like I am trapped all over again."Elsa, I am back.What's for dinner?" Luciano's voice echoed in the living room.I dry my hand

    After my conversation with Rick, I received some pictures of my baby from him.I am truly grateful to Rick for helping me because no one in that Pack would dare do something against Alpha's liking including my parents.They don't want to hear anything about me was what Rick told me.I would be lying to say if it didn't break my heart.I loved them like my own parents.But I understand, they lost their daughter because of me.If they hate me for it, then I will happily accept it.Whispers wafted around in the air, the colleagues started to fix their hair, some did a full on outfit check to each other.What's happening? Is someone coming? Alpha Kane?Understandable.He is handsome.I continue to feed the three years old in my lap who I chased for at least ten minutes to get him to eat."Yes, Good boy" I coe at him while gently running my fingers through his hair."Hey, Luna Christine is here for a visit" One of my colleagues nudged me in the shoulder.I looked up at her with a frown.So all th

    I stare out the window in the passenger seat whilst Luciano drives the car.He has not once shut up about how much he hates having to attend an urgent gathering.It wasn't what disgusted me about him but his cheap views about Luna Christine."Good riddance.That woman had her face stuck far up her ass.She really thought of herself as more capable than Alpha.Bullshit! She doesn't even come close to a basic man in the Pack.I was too fucking tired of her constant commands as if she is the Alpha.Women like her don't get far in life.She could have simply just please Alpha and keep her nose out of every matter that was for men to deal.Now look what happened, her thickhead got exploded" He chuckled at the end."What are you trying to say? Why would someone want her dead?" I ask, keeping my phone close to my chest."I can count on my fingers how many want her dead, including me.The satisfaction I got to hear the news.""Did you plan her accident?" I ask after a long silence. "I'm sorry.Of course

    "Elsa, I don't think you need to work anymore.I mean, you have Luciano's property, his real estate shares which is enough to go through half of your life then why bother working?" A colleague of mine said.I didn't fail to catch the condescending tone dripping from her voice."Not every person in this world is selfish and lazy.You would be surprised to know even rich people work" I give her a tight smile and turn my focus back to the child I was taking care of.Ever since the news of me taking over Luciano's property spread in the Pack, some of them have been bitter.Not that I care, it was Alpha's decision and who am I to say no? Besides, I have learnt a hard way.To achieve something in this cruel world, one has to be selfish.Two weeks since Luciano passed away for a crime he didn't commit.My nightmares have eventually become bearable.Or maybe I just don't remember any of it which works as well.Children's giggles and colleagues whisper replaced with quiet whimpers.I look around the r

    I rushed inside the main Gate, avoiding the stares of those who were already inside, scurrying my way to the elevator to reach the third floor.My heart beat accelerated just when the elevator door opened.More stares in my direction weighed me down.Of course, I don't look so presentable with dirt on my clothes but had I gone back home to change then New Alpha wouldn't hesitate to kick me out without an introduction.I noticed Sage standing among some of the guards, busy having a conversation.I approached her. "Hey, Sage.. I'm sorry I'm late.." I said quietly.She turned to me and her eyes traveled down my hoodie."What the hell?" She whispered, rather amused than shocked."I know I look horrible but I didn't have time to change" I sigh, glancing around the Hall that is not as crowded as the first floor."But how did it happen though?" She asked, grabbing my arm and leading me away from the Hall."A freak on the Bike did this!" I groaned, annoyed just at the mention of it.She snorted,

    "Here you go, back to your pretty face" Drax says, successfully wiping the dirt off my cheek.His electric blue eyes stayed focused on my cheek, more specifically on the wound given by Nikona."What?" I ask in disbelief, However my voice came out more of a surprise."What?" He asks back, flicking his gaze on me and my breath almost hitched at how truly mind-blowing his eyes are."What did you just say about my face?" I repeat.His brows frown into a cute scowl."Oh so you want me to compliment you again? I guess it's safe to assume you are now falling for my charms" He stepped forward, his shoes lightly bumping into mine in the process before his long slender finger twirls the strands of my hair."I'm not" I say quietly, tearing my gaze off him.A soft chuckle leaves his lips and I resist looking back at him.He stops playing with my hair and tuck the strands behind my ear, letting the whole wound on the show to the eyes of everyone.Before I could open my mouth to say something, his bre

    My eyes widened in pure horror, for a fraction of a second I almost let out a yelp but keeping myself calm and collected, I approached the boy."Hello Elsa" He greets politely.I blink, then like a strong wave of tsunami, relief along with a pinch of confusion washes over me.I must have heard him wrong earlier."Hello, when did you come in and who dropped you?" I asked, bending down to reach his level.Now looking at him from up close, there's some weird familiarity coming off him.I couldn't quite grasp on it.Have I seen him before?"When you were looking at your phone" He said, turning his attention back to Kiara who was glaring at him."He is bad..bad boy" Kiara says, pointing her small finger at the boy, her finger brushes against his white shirt and he instantly steps back as if tarnished with her touch which makes Kiara even more furious."You are bad!" She yells loudly, throwing the stuffed teddy on the floor and lunging towards him, grabbing him by the collar of his shirt."Kia

    Against my better judgment, I step inside and walk towards the windows to open them, letting the smoke clear out from the room.Behind me, I sense him move.Turning around, I set my eyes to his displeased frame now sitting on the bed and already staring at me with annoyance.“Did you not hear me?” He groaned, bringing the cigarette to his mouth.I rushed towards the bed and snatched the cigarette from his hand.Ignoring the shift of anger in his eyes, I throw the cigarette on the floor and step on it with my shoes.“I did hear you and I am not leaving” I affirm, holding my ground.Drax stares at me for a moment before laying down on the bed and fetches out a pack of cigarette from his pocket.Groaning in disbelief, I attempt to snatch the pack but he blocks me with his free arm.“Stop bothering me and go plan whatever the heck you want with Zion.Both of you suit each other.Dumb and dumber” He hissed bitterly before shoving my hand away.I didn't let his words hurt me rather I find it amusi

    We all sat in the living room as I shared my opinion regarding my son.Zion seems to be calm and positive about this revelation but on the other hand, Drax seems to be lost in a deep thought.His brows remain narrowed in a deep slits, lips pressed together into a thin line and hands resting against the armrest , tapping the fabric ever so slowly.“He isn't so boring after all” Xander's voice rings in the quiet room.Tearing my eyes off Drax, I glance around the room before sighing in distress.Ian might be gifted but it's still a scary thought.What if he ends up hurting himself? He is too young to understand anything.He could possibly harm himself.“As good as it appears to me, I think it would be better to not mention anything about using the gift to him.Just as you said, Ian responded to Xander's constant demand.If not under right guidance and protection, Ian can harm others and most specifically himself” Zion shared his piece of thoughts, which matches with my concern.“That's what I a

    I heard footsteps reaching up to me from behind. I turn around quickly only to bump my head into something firm.“Careful, sweetheart” Drax's soft voice wafts across my ears.I step back and look up at him.‘Ian.. Find him please” I hardly manage to push out the words as a lump formed in my throat.My nerves spiked with worry.Placing his both hands on my shoulders, Drax attempts to reassure. “We will find him, just don't forget to breathe”I nod slowly, before turning to the maid who looks just as concerned now. “Please check the mansion and inform me if you find Ian”She nods in return before turning to walk away into the corridor.Drax and I also started to search for Ian.After checking almost all the rooms, I couldn't hold back the tears anymore.I opened the last room and to my surprise, Zion was working out.Upon sensing my abrupt presence in his room, he stopped midway through his push-ups and looked at me.His confused eyes are replaced with concern real instant then he gets up t

    This might be the first time I enjoyed sex.It was a bliss to come undone in Drax's arms.He was just so into giving me pleasure that it turned me on even more.That's how I ended up going on with multiple orgasms.The faucet was already off, but the steam around us made the moment more intense.Drax kept his arm around me as I was resting on his lap with my back pressed against his chest.No words were exchanged between us except the gentle touches here and there.It felt truly relaxing.I slowly ran my fingers on his thigh in a slow circular pattern, noticing the way his muscles clenched and that simply made my core throb.I sigh, leaning my head against his shoulder.His lips slowly brush against my neck, then leaving lazy kisses down my shoulder.His hands leave my waist and move up to grab my breast.I sigh out loud, losing myself completely with his touch.My eyes flutter open when I feel his hardness beneath me.I was too sensitive but yet my body craved for more.I slowly started to grin

    Before I could trip down the porch of my parents house, I made sure to not let the impact cause any harm to Ian.I balance myself just fine before setting my gaze to my mother who had no remorse of her actions.Rage was plastered on every inch of her face that it hurt my chest physically to receive such a reaction from someone that loved me all these years.“Mom..”“Don't you dare call me that!” She screamed on top of her lungs, the noise so high pitched that Ian woke up and started crying.My mom's eyes shifted to Ian, her furious eyes almost melted but she inhaled a deep breath and pointed her finger at me.“Leave and don't ever show up.This is the least I expect from you”She attempts to slam the door shut but I move forward and hold the door before it could close.“Please… I didn't kill her.It was Nikona..I never meant for her to go through any of it.I swear, I begged him to let her live but he didn't” I was desperate to explain myself.To prove that I was not the one behind my best f

    Chapter 49“I don't understand” I whispered, not getting anything at all.The boy remains silent, just looking at me with the same blank face.“A shadow walker is something that is made by doing some horrific ritual through dark magic. It's impossible to succeed in it but if one do so, there's so much that can turn out wrong.This boy is epitome of evil.A Threat to us all”As Drax explains all about Shadow walker to me, I couldn't help but feel sad.He is just a little boy.The boy frowned, glaring at Drax in displease before walking towards us.That sets Drax into panic, he pushes me completely behind him and positions himself to fight the boy.“Drax this is‐ I pause mid sentence after hearing a low chuckle which came from the boy itself. “Your heart is beating too fast.Your head is running with countless thoughts and you are a couple minutes away from having a panic attack.How are you going to fight me when every remaining cell in your body screams for help” The boy says casually, h

    “You see, an arrogant filthy leader often has enemies within his supposedly loyal people” Drax says with a tint of amusement in his tone as he swiftly approaches me, pushing Nikona ‘s father to the side on his way.“Sweetheart, you did good.I got this from here” The tone of his voice softened as he stroked my cheek with his thumb.My heart swelled with relief.“I mixed wolfsbane with my own hands and saw you intake the meal then how is it possible to still not die!” Nikona exclaimed in anger.Drax laughed as he turned to him, keeping me behind.“I'm upset you did so much but didn't feed me with your hand.It would've been great” Drax jokes, his eyes flicking from Nikona to Zion who approaches him from behind and grabs the back of his neck, earning a painful hiss.“You are quite a fool to indulge yourself in a conversation other than thinking of ways to save yourself.But again, your rotten brain isn't used enough” Zion says before dragging Nikona to the wall and slams his head straight i

    I feel the anger bubble deep inside me and when he moves to charge at me, it feels like a strong rush of energy surge through me.My hand moves fast and strikes to his face, claws whips out of my fingers and pierce through his skin.A loud groan leaves his lips as he stops in his track, shocked just as I was.I look down at my hand, my claws covered with his blood.That means my wolf is still with me.Confidence burst through my chest at the discovery.A smile creeps up my lips but a menacing growl from Nikona tears away my attention.“You filthy bitch!” He for all lunges forward.I prepare myself to dodge his hit but an invisible force shoves him away from me.He goes flying straight to the dining table and crashes on it causing chaos to erupt.I was yet to find out how it was happening in the first place.There's this unknown source of power that is preventing Nikona from harming me.I look ahead where Nikona collects himself from the broken table and gets up before shifting into his wolf.

    Nikona's lips were mere inches from mine.I don't realize when and how but my Hands moved fast and pushed him away.What shocked me was the way he flew back and crashed against the door before falling down on the floor with a heavy thud.My eyes widened as I stared at his crouched frame before looking back at my hands.Where did I get that strength from to push Alpha that far away.An omega can never possess such strength.“You!” Nikona hissed, as he slowly rise himself from the floor. “What is wrong with you? I am trying to fix things but that doesn't mean you will treat me however you please”He steps forward furiously, hands balled into fists.For a moment, I thought he was going to hit me but that didn't happen, instead he looked between me and Ian.“Look…” Nikona sighed, “I am really trying.My wolf is still agitated and in pain.I am sure yours feel the same. We can make it work if you stop pushing me away”“Don't try to touch me again.You don't have that right” I said, crossing my a
