"Ready?" asked Lea, examining the contents of Luke's bag carefully. "Didn't you forget your gym clothes and small towel, honey?""I've got it in the front of the bag, Mom," Dylan said, running his fingers through his hair."A water bottle?""That is, too.""Hm, alright. You're ready to go then."Jayden came out of the room buttoning his shirt. "Baby, are you sure you don't want to come?""No, babe, I already got those old clothes out of the closet and if I don't get them sorted soon, I'm going to lose any more time doing it.""Fine. I'll take Luke to school, stop by the convenience store to get your order, then come back quickly and help you clean out your cupboards," Jayden said."You didn't work today?" Lea asked."No. I decided to take the day off today to accompany you to do the housecleaning."Lea smiled widely and kissed Jayden's cheek gently, then knelt down and kissed Luke's forehead. "Happy studying, honey, and enjoy your day at school with your friends."Luke sighed. "Mom, i
It was early in the morning when Lea woke up. She couldn't sleep and just lay awake silently in Jayden's arms, not wanting to disturb Jayden and make him wonder. Yesterday's call from the hospital about further examination really disturbed Lea's mind. Some time ago, Lea had checked herself into the hospital because of complaints in the abdominal area which sometimes bothered her because of the pain. What's the matter? Why did the doctor sound so urgent? Does she really have some kind of dangerous disease? Lea was worried and felt it better to get checked out soon to be sure. Lea quickly showered and dressed modestly, trying not to make too much noise to wake Jayden, then went into the kitchen and cooked. She also made provisions for Luke who will be at school until this afternoon. After all was done, Lea left the apartment. She would call Jayden later when she had finished the examination procedure at the hospital.On the way downstairs, Lea called Shaira."Hey, Lea," Shaira greet
"Tell me, how are they related? Lea and Ricky?" Jayden asked in a calm tone, even though inside he was agitated and worried. An hour ago, Jayden picked up an exquisite self-portrait of Lea by Ricky Viener, a talented worldwide artist known for his eccentricity and mysteriousness. The painting is very beautiful and it is certain that the price will be very high. Not just anyone can own a painting by Ricky Viener. However, Lea finds herself beautifully painted, free and unsolicited, as a reward for her appearance. Later, hearing Lea's stories about her relationship with Ricky, made Jayden believe in his instincts that Lea's disappearance this time might have something to do with Ricky. At first Jayden was sure that everything that happened was because of Fely's doing again and he was determined, if that was true, then he would not forgive Fely at all. He didn't care that even if he faced Lakeclaw and Windclaw at once, he would destroy the two packs to the core. However, when he fi
"Sir, they were seen walking through the forest to the east, towards the Galleob mountains," said Khampa Turno, a chemist at Franzine industry, who also has psychic abilities. "How do you know that they kidnapped Lea?" Jayden asked. We still have to be vigilant and careful, lest there be cases of wrong arrests and wars with other packs because of our mistakes.""We captured and rounded up everyone listed in our database as unpacked wolves, criminals who roam outside the reach of the law, including ordinary humans, as well as anyone who has been involved in crime within the last fifteen years. Me and a few werewolves with a reading sense looked at them and those two were clearly thinking about how beautiful the woman they just kidnapped was." Jayden roared and banged on the table, so that the large and heavy teak table was instantly smashed into pieces. Khampa and Ricky's faces turned pale, realizing how powerful Jayden was. "Bring them before me and set up the arena," said Jayden
Cathy Adden stared at her phone screen. Ricky Viener's name was clearly displayed on her phone screen. "Boss, he called you," said the man standing in front of her."I know," Cathy replied calmly. "He might need something to take care of.""Does he know you're here, boss?" asked the other man."Of course not, idiot. He must have thought I was in America and not followed him here. Now shut up, don't get him suspicious."Cathy cleared her throat, clearing her throat, before receiving a call from Ricky. "Hello Ricky, how are you? Are you having fun and enjoying your time at Sky High?" greeted Cathy sweetly. "Cathy," Ricky said in an icy voice. "Don't pretend. I knew it was you." "Hm? What are you talking about?" asked Chaty confused. "Tell me where is Lea?" asked Ricky calmly. "Why you kidnapped her?""Lea? Why did you ask me about Lea? How can you say that I kidnapped her? Aren't you the one with her now?" "I know what you're doing, Chaty. You always get annoyed whenever I talk a
"Look," Jayden said, pointing to the body of one of the men Ricky killed. "He's wearing a shirt with a torn sleeve, even though judging by the brand and material, this shirt is brand new, there's even the smell of textile wax on this shirt. I'm sure this shirt's sleeve was torn from being pulled by Lea and I'm sure the torn cloth is still in her hand. Beam and the trackers can follow the smell of this shirt to find Lea."Cathy looked nervous and pale. She stared at Ricky with teary eyes. Jayden ignored him and looked at Ricky."I'll take care of finding Lea and I hope you work things out with her, because if you don't finish her soon, if something like this ever happens to Lea again, I might not see you again as a friend and a person who has protected and cared for Lea and Luke all these years. You know what I mean, right?" said Jayden calmly, but he had dagger eyes turn to Chaty. "That lowly creature can make you killed someday."Ricky nodded. "Yeah, I know. I'll clean this up and fo
The Mexican Pepper bar is quite a large bar, serving a variety of drinks from the cheapest local brands to very expensive foreign brands.In addition, The Mexican Pepper bar also doubles as providing mid-range accommodation for guests who are too drunk to go home, or who need a room for a one night date.Room service is included in the price applied, with the bonus of two bottles of mineral water and a box of standard brand condoms.Leon and August are former bomb tracer trainers in the Sky High army and after taking early retirement, they try to follow the procedures to become part of the tracer squad in the Horison pack. They are some of the most reliable and experienced trackers and their search in the medium of the torn shirt leads them all the way to The Mexican Pepper bar."Someone sprayed a special disinfectant, so the smell of Ms. Amarin and the shirt smelled very faintly," said Leon. "But I'm sure Ms. Amarin was brought here because I can still smell that shirt.""Good. Now s
Previously, Lea had hoped that Jayden would come to save her from this scary situation, as Jayden had always done for her.But now, as two drunken men stared at her with wild eyes and hideous grins, Leah wished she was dead before they both touched her.Lea's body was very weak, but her consciousness recovered as a feeling of fear forced her brain to stay conscious."Ugh, she's so pretty and hot," said the first man, stroking his black lips. "Look at those long legs. Wow!"The second man chuckled and took a quick gulp from the bottle in his hand. "We can't touch her until Ms. C checks it out, man!" said the second man in a mumbling tone.The first man snorted. "You idiot! Since she was taken from her home, it's possible that she was enjoyed by the me who took her, during their travels. I heard she was brought here by different men. Ms. C was very careful in planning everything. She was taken by different men so her mate couldn't trace her.""You think we can also enjoy her beautiful b
Five Years Later."Do not touch me!" demanded Lea in an icy voice. "Sleep outside and don't come in before I call you." Jayden was stunned. He accepted the pillow and blanket that Lea gave him with a sad face. "Baby, come on, I promise I won't touch you, but let me sleep next to you, OK?" Jayden coaxed gently. Lea turned Jayden around and pushed him out of the room, then closed the door and locked it. Jayden looked at the bedroom door languidly and headed for Luke's room. He shifted his son's body slightly then positioned himself next to him. Luke woke up and saw his father curled up beside him. "Dad? You got kicked out again?" asked Luke in a sleepy voice. "Yes. Your mother just finished taking a shower and was wearing the kimono that I just bought for her, suddenly she was crying and angry with me." "Does she not like her kimono?" "He said he liked it when I gave it to her this morning, son, but then he said I purposely chose a color that made him look fat." "What color d
Firts Entcounter."You are Jonathan Issac, the actor," Liam said, looking at Jonathan closely. Something sparks in his eyes when he shakes hands with Jonathan. Jonathan nodded. He didn't expect that a computer genius and internet expert could be so handsome and stylish. He is even more handsome than his fellow actors. "You are the cousin of Jayden Franzine, the computer genius?" Jonathan asked. "Yes. Why? Don't I look that smart?" Jonathan imagined a middle-aged man with a slightly pot belly, a half-bald head, and plastic-rimmed glasses that went down to his nose, not a man with a sexy tan skin, a tall, athletic body, and a face like a grown man's magazine model. "Uncle Liam!" shouted Luke who came out of the clinic while running towards Liam. The man scooped Luke into his arms. "Ohoo ... my cool nephew, how are you, boy? How is the application you are working on?" "I have to fix some things, uncle." "Bring it to me later and we'll fix it together." "Yes uncle. I'll ask Dad
"You're an ordinary human," Leon said while looking at the woman in front of him. "But you are very beautiful and you have a very bright aura." Shery looked at the man in the colorful Hawaiian shirt who looked happy and always smiling. "Yes, I'm human. However, since childhood I've been involved in the werewolf world, because my great great grandfather is the only human doctor who is recognized and given a special title--Werewolf Vet Specialist by the White Fur pack after successfully treating prince Vonsha White when he was attacked in border to Brazil by wild werewolves who staged a coup d'etat, then my great grandfather, my grandfather, and my father passed on and now I'm also a vet for the werewolf," Shery answered while holding her chin up high. Leon's eyebrows rose. "The doctor who was given the title ... wait, you're the granddaughter of doctor Tonnam Kim and the son of doctors Patricia and Darius Lee?" he asked. "Wow!" Shery interrupted without answering. Since the beginn
Shaira is proud of what Lea has achieved. She was also deeply moved when Lea mentioned his name in the speech and expressed her appreciation."Tony, I'm going to get some wine," Shaira said, pointing to a corner of the hall."Don't drink too much, Shaira, you tend to get grumpy when you're drunk," Tony warned. "You're not a very good drinker either."Shaira gave her thumb and walked to a corner of the hall where a long table served various drinks and sweet pastries.Shaira was standing at the side of the table, trying several types of wine, when suddenly ...“Oops, sorry,” Shaira said. She stared at the man in front of her, whose jacket was wet with spilled wine from the glass in her hand.The man was wearing a khaki suit and now a large purplish red circle was starting to spread over the khaki color. Shaira quickly took out a wet tissue from the bag and patted the stains on the suit."Stop, stop, miss, you will only make the stains stick to the suit," Ricky said annoyed, holding Shai
Dalton tries to persuade Fely to eat, but in vain. Fely was getting more and more gloomy and emaciated, but this morning when Dalton was delivering breakfast to her room instead of Nyla, he tripped over something near the nightstand next to the bed.He bent down and picked up the white object and stared at it in disbelief. A test pack, with two thick red lines. Dalton's face went pale. He noticed Feli who was sleeping on her back. Dalton quickly descended into the dining room and approached Nyla."Honey, do you know about this?" asked Dalton while handing the test pack to Nyla who was setting the table.Nyla stared at the thing Dalton proffered with bleary eyes. She took it with trembling hands. "Fe-fely?"Dalton fell on the dining chair, limp. Nyla sat on another dining chair nearby, just as limp."How about this?" muttered Nyla. "It will be a disgrace and the talk of the people."Dalton was stunned, unable to answer his wife's question. Nyla looked around her now empty house. She fi
"Fely, come on, you have to eat," Nyla coaxed gently. "Look how thin your face is."Fely turned her body while pulling the blanket. "There's no use for me to eat, Mom. My life is over. Just let me die so I won't trouble you," said Fely in a hoarse voice.Nyla cried sadly. She never thought of her family would be this devastated. Fely will no longer be able to work in the entertainment world she likes for the next five years, which means that her career in the entertainment world is truly over. How come. In the next five years, Fely's age will increase and even if she has strong connections that can bring her back to a career in the entertainment world, she will still experience difficulties.Garry has officially announced that he has broken off his engagement with Fely and will withdraw all of his shares in Echo entertainment.That means, some of the entertainment shares that have been withdrawn by Garry must be immediately replaced by other investors, or Fely buys all the shares with
"I can't believe this is actually happening," Lea muttered. She turned and faced Eloise. "Is this good enough for me?"Eloise's tears welled up in her eyes. She grabbed Leah's hands and held them tightly. "I know, one day you will shine like this and your light will not go out because someone is protecting you."Lea smiled. "Thank you for coming, Eloise. I really appreciate it."Eloise wiped the wet corners of her eyes. "This is my honor. After all, I am only human. To be able to see a ceremony like this is an honor for me."Lea and Eloise turned to the door at the same time, when they heard someone knocking on the door, then Shaira's and Shery's heads appeared."Come in! I'm done," called Lea.Shaira and Shery entered, wide-eyed at Lea's appearance."Oh my, Lea, you're such a fairy!" cried Shery in amazement.Shaira was speechless, just stared at Lea in awe. Lea smiled. She wore a white, low V-neck dress, with long sleeves and an A-line cut that flared below her legs. A chain necklac
Lea and Luke's chins almost dropped, looking at the interior of Franzine manor. They never thought they would be able to see the luxury of noble houses that they had only seen on television before through movies or dramas, in front of their eyes, in real life.High ceilings, wide marble staircases, large glass windows, and solid teak rich doors, like a classic impression of a manor built by the ancestors of the Franzine family, combined with luxurious and minimalist modern themed furniture, making Franzine manor feel alive and extraordinarily beautiful."Dad, how many floors are there in this manor?" asked Luke, looking up. "Three floors and an additional floor above which is made into a dome garden. I'll take you there after we meet everyone.""Master Jayden, you've arrived," said a midled age woman dressed in a light blue uniform that greeted Jayden, Lea, and Luke at the entrance.She looked at Lea with a fascinated gaze. "Owh, you look even prettier than I see in magazines or tele
"Move?" asked Lea with raised eyebrows. "Why should we move?"Jayden was drying Luke's freshly washed hair. He stopped rubbing Luke's head and looked at Lea. "Luke is getting bigger, he needs more space to grow and also a more pleasant social environment. The apartment feels a little cramped now. Isn't it, Luke?"Luke nodded with a thumbs up, not daring to make a comment for fear that Lea would still be upset with him.After Jayden confessed his true identity to Lea, Luke, Jonathan, Ricky, and Tony respectively admitted that they already knew who Jayden was.Lea is very upset because she feels lied to by everyone. However, Lea's anger didn't last long, because she realized that Jayden was also thinking about her career and self-esteem, so she had to hide his identity."Moving where, babe?" Lea asked finally."Would you and Luke come with me in the morning? My family wants to see you," Jayden said carefully. "No coercion, only hope."Lea laughed at Jayden's words. "All right. What time
