There was a very heavy silence inside the car ride and Jake, the personal driver and bodyguard could not shake the feeling of awkwardness building in the backseat. No words will be heard except stolen glances between Natasha and Morbius. They both were not sure what to do.
"What to do...this is awkward..." both of them thought while looking outside the window with a heavy sigh.
"Ahm...my lady, Master, where to?" Jake carefully asked as they halted for a second as they waited for the gate of the castle to open for them.
"Just drive to the town." Morbius coldly answered as he was not sure where to take Natasha even though he was the one who invited her in the first place.
Even though Natasha heard it, she had no clear idea what the town lo
Arriving at the castle late at night, they were greeted warmly by their servants but between Morbius and Natasha, there was indeed silence between them. Morbius was curious about what happened and even though he could read her mind even clearer than before, he chose to respect her instead. But the silence between them was killing him and decided to talk about it yet, the twins came on running to them. "Why still up?" Morbius asked the twins in a cold angry tone making the twins flicker and hide behind Natasha. Natasha sighed and glared at him. "Morbius, they were still kids, and calm down." She warned him gently and he just sighed as he shrugged his shoulders. She shakes her head and leans to meet the level of the twins. "Now, twins, why still up?" she asked them carefully.
"What do you get for me?" Morbius coldly asked Dan and Tyriel as soon as he entered his office. "Here, Master. I think you better see it first before we can tell you what we managed to get." Tyriel said calmly to their master as Dan handed him a file about what they'd collected. REPORTS FROM NEIGHBORING PACKS/CLANS Northern Area from the Pack of Moon Shaman Report: A sudden random attack from the rogues. Almost a quarter of the pack has been destroyed in just 30-35 minutes with no stop. Good thing no casualties occurred only houses were burned down and some businesses and goods were being stolen. Captured Rogue Statement: a man told them a great opportunity to h
Time is like a ticking bomb when a man in a formal suit waits patiently for his meeting to come by. He was checking the time on his wrist while hoping that he was not being ditched by a wealthy man like Morbius. "Stop thinking nonsense. He was not that kind of Duke...but he cares a lot about his land that I am going to take bit by bit as planned." the man in a suit was Lupo Stewart and he was grinning from ear to ear with that thought of taking what Morbius possessed. Everything that he had. "Thinking something nasty to do to me again." Morbius coldly appeared behind him causing Lupo to jolt up. He quickly composed himself and pretended they were friends as he offered his hand politely at him. "Don't play with me, Mr. Stewart. You're not even the kindest wolf rogue that I ever met." Morbius added a
Another day began on knocking the morning of Natasha after yesterday's meeting with Lupo Stewart. She gets up from the bed after leaving a kiss on Morbius's lips before she does her morning routine within their chamber. When she was fully done, she was freshened up before she headed out after leaving a note to her mate/husband. “Morning, Lady Nat. Early today.” Sandy greeted her morning as soon as she arrived at the kitchen. “Morning and of course, it's my time to do my usual rounds at the clinic,” Natasha answered as she began drinking some freshly brewed coffee. They were having random chats when Rizal suddenly appeared with a very worried and pleading expression and Natasha’s smile went worriedly confused. She knew that there was something serious that happened and needed her expe
As the bite lingered on his skin, Morbius slowly calmed down and his body started to get weak. His knees gave up and Natasha caught him dearly. "Hush now, Hubby. I'm here." Natasha checked on him and the scars that he made throughout his body started to absorb the blood that it released and healed up as if nothing happened."Now tell me what's hurting?" she gently cupped his face and let their eyes meet. Morbius can't utter the right word and just points his chest weakly as he can't divert his eyes to another. He stared back at her. Natasha nodded and carefully removed his shattered shirt to reveal his bare chest. She checked on his chest and she started to see something that she had never seen before on his skin. There was a fresh red burn mark spreading throughout his chest. It was crawling without a stop and making him groan in pain. Natasha got lost in staring and began tracing them causing Morbius to shiver and moan. "It seems to me that I have
"MOMMY!! DADDY!!" the twins suddenly opened the door of their chamber but automatically they were stopped by Kristina and Sandy. "Twins, don't disturb their sleep..." Kristina lowly whispered to the twins as she pulled their collars gently away from the bedroom. "Y-yeah, let's go...their room was not in a perfect shape for kids." Sandy looked around their master's bedroom and it was in a mess like a chaotic storm landed around it. "They're pretty intense." Sandy thought to herself as she closed the door of their chamber. "But..." the twins tried to reason with their cute pout but it was not working with them. "Later, if they weren't busy making the life of everyone in the castle safe which includes yours
"Do you think that will work this time, Baby Brother?" Erza seriously asked about the plan that they came out with. "We won't know until it happens and please, don't call me baby anymore. I'm old enough to rule our family land that is supposed to be you." Morbius coldly answered and demanded not to be babied anymore. "Well, you know your elder sister was lazy when it comes to paperwork. That's why I stayed as your knight." Erza teased as she ruffled his hair a bit. Morbius groaned. "I'm the youngest and you all pass it to me." He pointed out but he knew that he was already defeated since he was already handling the land that their family owns. "Well, you're doing great with it." Lorenzo chuckled as he sounded proud of the accomplishment of their younge
After the sudden incident at the clinic, Morbius called his siblings to discuss further plans of what they'd already come up with. They were discussing their first plan and they had to do some updates when Natasha came in with their snacks. She even sat beside Morbius across his siblings on the other couch. “We're not even starting yet but due to what just happened, we must update our first plan." Morbius started their sudden meeting again. "Alright, based on what just happened, all news and rumors from other neighboring clans and packs were all pointing in one direction. Lupo Stewart." Meilyn was the first one who started their serious meeting. "From what I've gathered about him before till now, I've learned that he was talking to some rogues and nomads to he
Time skipped from days to weeks to months and to years and yet nothing seemed to change. The sky was clear and serene even the vast greenfield of El Mezzanotte was indeed filled with peace after some annoyance and rebuilding of the land. But among the peacefulness, the local farmers finally found their other half and built their own families yet, still busy doing what had been assigned to them by their lady and master. Speaking of their lady and master, something seems to switch as soon as their youngest hits five. "MORBIUS, OFFICE NOW!!!" Natasha's fuming voice began to echo throughout the entire land alarming everyone especially her husband, Morbius. Ever since the youngest turned five years old, Morbius started doing more outside field work than usual. He trained with the newbies and youngsters including their
Thunder, lightning, and heavy rain make noise outside the vast greenfield of El Mezzanotte land. There was a newly built barn house next to the hilltop castle where faint groans echoed as if there was a sick animal around. But like the old burned ones, there was a secret trap door leading to a basement filled with dust and rust, smoke, and blood from a captive creature. "KILL ME NOW!" A very loud scream echoed throughout the entire basement. But it was followed by a sarcastic laugh that echoed well throughout the walls of the basement. The lights around the space were flickering and the wall was filled with stains of random bloods of animals or traitors. The sounds of groans and moving chains were making the creepy space more eerie like a haunted space. But the further it went, a tormenting conversation began to
Days turned to weeks and weeks turned to months and yet, Natasha was not speaking terms with everyone. She rarely went out of the room without Morbius beside her. She walked like a hungry zombie whenever she walked alone in the hall of the castle. Everyone was a bit skeptical but when they learned about her being pregnant, they were trying to be understanding. She just has a different way of having a baby. "Wifey, I heard from Rean that you and our baby are doing great." Morbius was drying his hair after a very long day of work throughout the entire land. He was used to it before but when Natasha came, his hard work suddenly got lightened. But not for a couple of months. Natasha just watched Morbius carefully while wearing decent night clothing. She wanted to speak to him but due to her weird pregnancy, she lost her voice like it
It's almost a month already since they handled Lupo's situation on their hands. Everything seemed to move freely once again and peacefully but behind the wall of the castle, everyone was trying to be happy and move forward yet, not that well. "I hope Lady Nat is okay now..." one of the servants hoped for the better well-being of their lady. "She'll be...Master is there to help her this time." another one commented while cleaning up inside the kitchen. "Hope so." Another servant agreed with a hopeful sigh. Everyone was worried about their lady's well-being ever since Morbius managed to put Natasha to sleep, she hadn't woke up for three weeks already. It was almost four weeks and there was no sign of waking up and it was worrying Morbius.
As anger was taking its toll on Natasha, she was not a doctor that everyone knew about. She began to be a merciless alpha who overly protected her pack and the land that she owned alongside her mate. Lupo wasn't exempted from her wrath. Nobody does. "This is for my lost pack and for killing my mother, Thalia." She gave two tormenting lightning strikes from the sky making Lupo howl in pain. "And this one for endangering and manipulating the innocent desire of every creature you crossed with." She was growling deeper and full of hatred. She even gave her enormous punch causing Lupo to stumble like a bouncing ball on the earthly ground before crashing and smashing two old pine trees around the training field. Natasha was empty and cold yet the heat from her anger was releasing her
The night just unfolds the strongest storm that ever hit the land of El Mezannotte. The rain was even falling heavy and the wind furiously made everything not just sway but dancing wild as if it was ripping the greenery around the woods. Even the thunder was clapping furiously and the lightning didn't stop from slicing the sky in anger. It was indeed a furious typhoon. 'MASTER, THEY WERE PRESSING ON.' 'The flames around the perimeter were now gone.' In annoyance, Morbius clicked his tongue when he heard the report from his men over the castle's perimeter. He glanced over at his beloved who kept fighting with her bear fist against Lupo. 'GO! I'll handle him.' "Please be sa
Noises from a nonstop fight between creatures of the night. They battle by force, one was being manipulated to invade and kill while the others were defending their land. Yet, with the magical barrier, no human being outside the castle's land was alarmed by the blazing fire from the explosion happening within the castle. "Belle," Ceres called her wife as soon as they got back together in the middle of the fight. "Don't even think about using our Immortal Blood here. We're just helping them." Frizabelle quickly said to her causing Ceres to pout as she slammed the rogue's head on the ground, making it unconscious. "Let them deal the rest. We could only stun or immobilize them but never kill them. We're not assigned to do that, Ceres." Francesca added when she kicked a reckless rogue to its head
Groaning. Panting. Growling. Those are the things that were echoing throughout the entire barn house where Morbius kept his prisoner tormented. "Is that all you have? Pathetic, Morbius's pets. HAHAHA!" Lupo laughed like a lunatic while bleeding from the punches that he was receiving. "SHUT THE FUCK UP!" The male werewolf who was assigned to punching him shouted. "We're more than you think. We're just holding ourselves from the likes of you." Another vampire but a lady spoke with venom while smoking at the staircase's railing. "You touched our lady and this was from us." Another male vampire coldly added before a back fist slapped Lupo's face.
As another day came to their lives, Natasha and Sandy decided to stroll around the market to check things in person as well as to buy something for her personally."Sandy, what do you think? Natasha asked as soon as they came out from the fitting room of the clothing shop."Hm, they look great on you. You look professional." Sandy commented on the suit that her lady was wearing."I am. But do you think the color was the right one for me?" she asked Sandy."Anything suits you but when it comes to color, I think you're the same as our master. He loves crimson red or maroon color." She suggested as she picked the color and handed it to Natasha."Well, since I do have fair skin tone color, I think dark colors won't
