ROXANNE
Being the doctor that I was trained to be, I immediately rushed to the busy hall of the emergency room at Seo Health & Care Hospital Institute. Everyone familiar with me greeted me, but I had an emergency as I looked for a certain patient. It took me a second to locate Jean’s mother, and I immediately saw the abnormality in her.
“Let me take it from here.” With a cold but firm voice, I told them, making the newbie doctor glare at me.
“Who are you?” He wondered, but I didn’t answer as I quickly checked the patient’s vital signs before injecting the right amount of silver into my werewolf patient to slow down her healing capacity and open her up.
“She’s Dr. Morison.” One of the nurses who still remembers me answered on my behalf w
HAYDENStunned. I was beyond stunned by what my wife did. I know already that she was an incredible woman as a doctor and being awakened vaewolf. But this one was something I hadn’t seen coming. She drove the car like a maniac, and whenever I checked on her, she was not even using her awakened side. She turned into another person I hadn’t met before—a skilled racer.“Honey, tell me if something comes up to the sides of our car, and Jean, be my eyes on the back. We’re being haunted.” I snapped from the trail of my thoughts when she added another confusion, making me check the sides of the car, and she was right; we were followed.“By a car when they could use their feet on doing that?” Jean reacted in disbelief as she confirmed the couple of cars tailing behind ours.
ROXANNEI don’t get it. I don’t know what’s happening or fully grasped what transpired before me. All I knew was that I already accepted the existence of vampires and werewolves and me being one of them, but at this moment, I was astonished. I could not move or look away from meeting one of the well-known mythical creatures. It was an enormous and mighty green-brown dragon with deep emerald eyes staring back at me. The way it stared at me was gazing beyond my soul to where I could hide or lie. I felt naked under its intense gaze fixated on me, and the next thing I felt was taken into a realm that was filled with nature, particularly roses.I was about to say something when I heard a pair of familiar giggles, coming from the person I had met and my biological mother. I looked where it was coming from, and they were sitting pretty relaxed on the ground while I was confused about what
HAYDENPanic. Worry. Frustration. Fear. Hope.Those emotions clashed as I drove at such speed that I kept glancing to my side. My wife. My wife wasn’t moving or giving us a hint of being alive. She was just there, sitting and barely breathing, making me click my tongue. I am frustrated.“Jean, check on her pulse.” With gritted teeth, I asked Jean a favor since I didn’t like what I was feeling. The turmoil of emotions was escalating and overlapping with each other, making me tighten my grip on the car’s steering wheel.“Alpha, I don’t like it. It's faint and slowing down.” Jean’s voice cracked as soon as she informed me of the pulse rate of my wife. DAMMIT!“Hold on,” I growled i
HAYDENStop. I stopped in front of the private room designated for the family of the pack. I was about to hold the knob of the door, but my hand began to sweat. I looked at it closely, they were shaking badly, and my heartbeat was throbbing through my ears. I tried to calm down, but my body began to weaken and froze on my spot. I wasn't certain what was happening to me, but I couldn’t easily see what lay behind the door. I can’t, and I can’t settle down until I feel a pair of soothing hands placed at my back.“You’re still here…” I didn’t realize Yuna and the vampire elder, Minerva, were still in the pack if I didn’t feel their hands on my back.“Don’t be scared.” With an encouraging voice, Yuna smiled at me.“But what if I lost her again?”
HAYDENI had been feeling a tug and an eerie vibe ever since my wife scared me to death. But this one was surely a warning sign of an incoming threat to the pack’s safety: the rogues. They were forcing themselves inside the pack’s perimeter, making my body jolt and narrowing my eyes on my wife.“Is this what you’ve been feeling ever since you wrapped the pack with your rose thorns?” I wondered when I realized what I had been feeling around the pack was not entirely from me. It was the deep connection I had with my wife, and it became more precise than before.“Luckily, we weren’t having sex when they decided to nudge around the border.” She winked, making me grin. This woman kept her dirty teasing for me.“Dammit, Babe, what else are you hi
HAYDENAfter a wonderful supper with the entire family, I excused myself and went to the office to send a special invitation to the elders who were still staying in the pack's town. After a bit, they called to let me know they'd be there at eight, giving me plenty of time to prepare for the meeting. I took my time to be decent, and my visitors arrived exactly on schedule."Alpha, the elders were already here." I heard Sue's voice after knocking on the bedroom door where I was waiting for my wife to finish her routine."Lead them to my office, Sue." With firmness in my tone, I commanded Sue."As you wish." With politeness in her tone, Sue respectfully bowed before leaving, and right on cue, my wife finally descended."You look marvelo
HAYDENTension. Silence. As soon as Minerva asked my wife back, I felt pressure radiating around the office. I was speechless, as I was not certain what to say due to the cautiousness I sensed around Roxanne like she was calculating the mood around the vampire elder.“Roxanne. Answer me. Tell me, where did you get them?” With firmness in Minerva's tone, she pressed to know, but my wife was holding her ground.“Tell me first what you know about them, and I will tell you where we got them.” Like Minerva's tone, Roxanne held her voice with firmness, causing the vampire elder to groan.“You…” She glared at my wife and was ready to attack her, but Yuna held her arm, making her stop.“Min, do not forg
HAYDENWaking up without unpleasant dreams or nightmares caused by fear was the finest thing that happened since I was messed up when I thought I had lost my wife. Fortunately, it did not occur. I awoke sooner than intended, and my smile spread wide when I noticed my wife sleeping comfortably beside me. I kissed her forehead before standing up and saw something on the table. The Escoffier rose. This solitary rose put my troubled thoughts to rest. I smiled as I smelled the rose scent, which made me think of Roxanne. I looked at her in her deep sleep before going to the restroom to freshen up."Hey June, you awake?" I made a quick mind link to my beta while I put my chosen clothes on.'Yes, Alpha, since I had never gotten a full chance to sleep.'
HAYDENRunning around the city hall, we learned that the ruined land hasn't been touched or looked at by potential buyers since rumors about it being haunted; it was overlooked. By learning of our interest in claiming the land, and with Roxanne's rights over it, it was given for free except for that maintenance fee, but the rest were all settled freely."They want to get rid of the haunted land." With an annoyed expression, I reacted, making my wife chuckle."Well, if I were in the same position, I would do the same before it cursed me," Roxanne smirked as we headed out of the city hall and drove back to the land to check it again."What do you mean?" I frowned as I drove the car as promised."H
ROXANNEI know my wife has been experiencing the changes in me since I completely awakened as a vaewolf. It was either the way I spoke, walked around the pack or the hospital, or how I behaved while I was with her. They were all different, but I felt no difference at all. The only difference between who I was before and who I am now is that I am more crafty when I plot anything or have a strong sexual drive. I was like a horny fella every time we messed around with each other, but only around my wife; otherwise, I would be furious if I turned into a cheating whore."Just thinking about it was making me sick." I sighed at the trail of my thoughts when I felt my wife's sneaky presence coming behind me. If before I would instantly flip her, but now I don't. I let her wrap her arms around my waist possessively since I love it around m
HAYDEN"Look, based on their report, Sonia was untouchable, but it doesn't mean that nobody has seen her do this kind of transaction around the realms. We'll start there," Roxanne sternly answered, making me slightly frown."And if they do, have you thought that Sonia might have already seen that coming and wrapped their necks around her palm? She's clever enough to pull strings up to this moment." With squinted eyes, I shared my argument while trying to read the lines that my wife wanted to take. "And from what the elders told us about her, she decided to fall deeply into misery and be a fallen nomad."“Like I said, let her fall, and I won't be suggesting this if I haven't thought that.” Roxanne firmly argued back her point, making me sigh.“And why we should do that when we know later will
