Somewhere in the middle of the forest, outside the city, Devlin’s car stopped in front of the huge gate and he got outside the car from the passenger seat. Yeah, he is not driving, but Lucy is. As she also knew the place, she decided to drive. Lucy also got down and looked at the gate and smiled sadly. Seeing the gate of the wolf’s lair, her bad memories started to resurface.The wolf’s lair is the part in the middle of the forest that is protected by huge walls and only Alpha and Luna can live inside this part of the forest. It was the gate she used to see from the distance with the thought of leaving this gate once, and she left completely. But, now her fate decided to take her here again. Devlin also noticed the sad expression on her face but the hint of fear on her face didn’t go unnoticed by him. Devlin went and opened the gate and looked at her. Seeing her looking at the surroundings, he guessed that she is still afraid of the other werewolves.
Lucy went inside and saw the mansion is completely clean. She guessed that it can be the work of Devlin. The majestic armchairs in the center of the hall, made her want to sit in them. But, she knew that she don’t have any right to sit in that now. Though the outside of the mansion is painted black, the interiors are only silvery-white and the furniture is not painted. She looked at the staircase on the right side of the mansion leading to the first floor. The staircase is also painted brown matching the furniture. All the while, Devlin is only looking at her expressions to know whether she likes this mansion or not. At first, she didn’t show any expression on her face, but when she saw the huge portrait of Devlin’s parents with the baby Devlin in their hands, she smiled and looked at him. “You were cute as the baby,” She said and he smiled at the response. “Come, I’ll show you around” Devlin called her and started to walk on the left side of the ma
The decreasing sunlight and increasing nightfall made Lucy shiver. As the memories started to run through her brain, she tried to stand up but only to be stopped by her mate. She looked at him and saw him showing her some photographs of her. Yeah, they both are still sitting at the same time in the garden. She raised her eyebrows asking what. Without telling her anything, he just turned that photo and showed it to her. That’s when she saw something written in that photo. She took that from him and started to read. 1st birthday – no symptoms. She read that and looked at him confusedly. She then again saw all the photos and the same thing written in those with different birthday numbers, like 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc…But, when she saw the photo of her on her 15th birthday, there is a different saying. 15th birthday – it started. She looked at that for some time and then showed it to Devlin. He looked at that and at her
“We can leave,” Devlin said and started to leave her parent’s room without saying anything after seeing that locket. He didn’t leave that locket in the cupboard but instead, he collected it with her photographs and the telescope. Not knowing what to do, Lucy also started to follow him silently ignoring the tantrums her wolf is throwing. Devlin walked fast but he maintained speed so that she can follow him and he also made sure that she is following him. They both reached the gate of the wolf’s lair and when they both came outside, Devlin immediately locked the gate using some power that Lucy don’t know about. She didn’t ask him anything nor, he is ready to tell her that. Though there are thousands of things and confusion running inside his head, the first thing in his head is to make her take a rest. He signaled her to get on the passenger seat which she did thankfully as she is hell tired. Devlin got in the driver's seat and started to drive t
When Lucy woke up the next day, she feels fresh after whatever happened yesterday. Her wolf is feeling good. The only thing that is running inside her mind is that she needs to allow her wolf to talk to her mate. She didn’t see her mate when she woke up. She came downstairs after freshening up and saw her mate watching T.V. She wondered which businessman will watch T.V. early in the morning. She went to the kitchen silently and saw that coffee is already prepared for her and placed it on the table. She took that coffee and came to the hall and sat on the couch near her mate. Devlin smiled at her and changed the channel to songs as he was watching the news. “Today looks different. What happened all of the sudden?” She asked as she can feel at peace. “I decided to give you what you deserve,” He said and she smiled. “What do I deserve?” She asked as she doesn’t know about that. “Peace,” He said and she smiled sadly in reply
Lucy wiped her tears and when she was going to stand up, she heard him. “What about your human family? How did they manage to control you at the times of your depression?” He asked as he wants to know what her family did to control her as he needs to know how to control her at times of difficulty. “I don’t know why but I never behaved differently with them. We only got a few minutes to talk each day and that was only at night. But, I have never felt like crying nor I have felt brave. I was the only normal in front of them. Only when I saw you and after knowing that you’re in danger, did my brave side come outside, and when I saw blood on you that night that weaker side came out of me. I think you have more effect on me than my family. Maybe it’s because of our mate bond”. Lucy presumed and Devlin nodded his head. When he was going to say okay to her, his mobile pinged with a message from one of the mafia men who is taking care of her family. It was a ph
Lucy looked at her mate who is just rubbing his cheek which she slapped a few minutes ago. She stood up after what felt like years and started to walk inside the house. Seeing her Devlin also followed her after signaling his men to clean the place. He saw her going inside some room. He followed her confusedly as he knew that she has no idea about this house. The second he stepped inside the room, his mate did something which shocked him and confused him more. He looked at her while rubbing his other cheek where she just slapped now. Yeah, she didn’t hug him instead she slapped him on the other cheek. “Why? What I did do?” He asked her cutely making her smile sadly with a heavy heart. “You decided to come here alone ever after knowing that they are werewolves?” she asked him and looked away to escape from her questioning eyes. “I asked you something” She raised her voice a little making Devlin look her at sadly. “I thought
Devlin stopped the car near the 5 storey huge house. He is shocked to see the luxurious designs. So, he understood that these people became rich by hurting his mate. He wants to kill them now but he knew that he wants to control his hands until he got something out of their mouth which will help him. Though no men are protecting the house, he knew it must be dangerous to take his mate inside without protection. He smiled when he saw his mafia men are already behind them. Lucy got down from the car and opened the gate of the house as she is used to working there. Devlin also got out of the car and started to follow his mate. Lucy went on and rang the doorbell. Devlin stood behind her silently waiting for them to open the damn door. The door opened revealing a girl almost naked. Lucy gulped seeing the modern daughter of the owner of this house. “Oh, you shit. You’re here again. We thought you ran away not able to bear the torture” She said playing with her red color
