"Zach?"
He brought his attention back to her.
"What is it?" Anna softly asked, eyes filled with concern. "You look..sad."
He smiled weakly. "This place..It brings back memories. Good ol' times."
He focused his eyes at the falls and she followed his gaze with wonder.
"Sometimes," he said, "I just want to forget everything. I want to forget terrible things." He brushed his hand down his face and cupped his stubble jaw.
She scooted closer to him and grabbed his hand, intertwining their fingers. She lovingly kissed the back of his hand, caressing her lips softly upon his skin.
"Sometimes," she murmured, "memories are meant to be longed. And sometimes, memories are meant to be forgotten. It's your choice, Zach. It's your choice if you'll learn from the past. Or run away from it."
He pulled her hand to his l
His heart was tightening inside his chest. His heart was aching. Bleeding. Wounded. And he couldn't do anything about it."Fück!" he cursed out loud. Jaw clenching. Fists curling. Eyes burning. "Fückin shït! Fückin shït! Fückin—"He stopped and froze. She was there. She was naked. She was swimming at the mist of the sunset. And it was a beautiful sight.For a moment, he had been panicking, had been losing his mind and sanity at his own thoughts. Just knowing she was in danger would have given him a heart attack. But then, she was there, he reminded himself. But then, the way she rose above the clean sea of the falls, the way her wet hair sticked to her skin, dripping wet and flushed, the way she had her eyes closed as drops of water rolled down her skin, the way she bit her bottom lip attractively, the way her naked breasts arose from the water, he couldn't help but be mesmerized, be stunned by her beauty.
He was gone when she woke up the next morning. However, little Luna was sleeping soundly upon the pillow beside her head. Anna sat up from the bed and yawned while stretching out her tired arms. Her eyes narrowed at the sight of her open window, remembering last night. Shaking her head, she sighed and stood up on the floor. Walking to the bathroom, she washed her face and brushed her hair. She walked back to her room and wore comfy shorts. After making herself look presentable, she walked downstairs and looked around for Lola.The scent of delicious pancakes led her towards the kitchen. "Goodmorning, Grandma," she greeted once she saw her Grandmother over the kitchen counter."Goodmorning, Dear."She hopped up and sat at the kitchen counter and looked over Lola. "Pancakes, yum!"Lola glanced at her and lifted an eyebrow out of curiosity. "You seem very excited today," she said suspiciously. "
There was a moment of silence. He sighed and took a step away from her, running his fingers through his hair. It was an idiotic move, he knew, but he couldn't help it. His cool always gets out of control whenever he was with her. He almost told her he wanted her.If only she knew."Can you smell that?" she asked, pulling him out of his thoughts."What?" The only thing he could smell was her scent. The sweet fragrance was clouding his space. God, how could she not see that?"Come on," she said."Fück," he silently cursed under his breath as she grabbed his hand, their skins brushing against each other, and led him upstairs to the kitchen."Oh, hello, Jack," Lola greeted with a smile as she saw them enter the kitchen. She placed pancakes on a plate and expertly poured sweet syrup upon the plate. "Come, eat."Anna dragged Jake
Zach took long strides towards Jake and roughly pushed him against the counter, tightly fisting Jake's shirt in his clenched hand along the process. "Stay the fück away from my girl," he hissed, eyes blazing like fire.Jake raised his chin slightly at Zach's ferocious face, seemingly so relaxed and satisfied with his enemy's reaction. "Dude," he said, smirking, "She's not even yours."Zach gritted his teeth, knowing he was talking about the mating and some shït. "She will be," he growled.Smirk fading, Jake's eyes turned dark as he pulled a deadly look upon his stern face. "I won't let that happen."Zach clenched his jaw, now crumpling Jake's shirt in his intense grip. "Don't make me kill you, Jackson," he hissed. "Don't make me.""For God's sake, I'm urging you," Jake retorted, determined while steadily keeping his firm ground in front of Zach. "I'm ready to fight for
That early morning scene between Zach and Jake wasn't much a pleasurable moment for her. But Zach's kisses managed to heal her afterwards. While Grandma was busy, watering the garden outside the mansion, they secretly went upstairs to her bedroom and he worshiped her with his sweet kisses, covering her lips and sensitive skin with his sinful lips.When she managed to pull away from him to slip inside the bathroom, she took a fresh warm bath. Though not very much glad about this, Zach waited for her and laid down her bed for awhile. When she came out the bathroom, she was a dripping hot body covered in a pink bathrobe that sticked to her skin.He would never say it in words but his darkening eyes portray his burning desire for her. He was allured by the beautiful nymph in front of him, she whom he would call his Queen.Nevertheless, he managed to put his pieces together. With gritted teeth, he averted his gaze from
When they had gone back to the black pick-up truck, they both got inside and he drove her to School. During the ride, his mind was occupied with many things.First off, he didn't really care about School. Or that they both skipped yesterday's classes and that he was supposed to train the students. It was his responsibility and obligation as an Alpha. To master the art of leadership and the art of senseless killing. And to train the students. Though he wouldn't really call himself a student or any Senior in Orlando for that matter. They were all professionals, actually. It was business.For the time being, however, he cared about her only. Not business or some shït. He cared only about the fragile woman beside him. To protect her. He would train her. Or maybe train her in bed. He shook his head at this sudden enticing imagination and then instantly thought of naughty things to do with her when she's in legal age."Z
She was blushing. He couldn't help but find it very adorable. The way she looked so shy and innocent, the way she was melting like an ice cream in heat, he liked it.Even then, he knew he loves her way deeper than she loves him. He could see it in her eyes. She was accepting him. But she hadn't realized it yet. She was still confused with her feelings for him that she couldn't even realize the love she had in her eyes whenever she was with him.She got out of his pick-up truck that was parked beside the School and near the forest. She walked to him and wrapped her arms around his waist, leaning her head upon his chest and lightly hugging him. He kissed the top of her head and hugged her back, one hand resting around her waist and the other tracing the line of her spine."Why do you always make me feel strange things?" she murmured to his chest. Her voice was low and soft for she meant to tell it to his
"Look," Mark said, "it's not like the ordinary. He never did that before. He was usually practiced with girls all over him. Worshiping him. Everythin' changed when you came.""Because she's his freakin' mate!" James exclaimed then buried his face on his hands, head dragging lower and hands gripping his hair."James, c'mon," said Harry. "We all knew Zach kept looking at her.""Fück.""James, language!" Bea shouted as Keira and Victoria giggled. The girls never saw this side of James. He was usually the bright person in the group. But never heartbroken."Fück language!" James retorted. "I'm gonna go punch somethin'!" With that, he stood up from his seat and walked out of the cafeteria with Harry following after him.Whilst watching the scene before her, Anna couldn't help but feel..useless at these kind of situations. For she didn't know what to say
Last night had been one of the best nights of Anna’s life. Sleeping beside Zach knowing she’d be doing it every day felt so different. She had woken up early in the morning and found Zach still sleeping beside her. He looked so at peace when he’s asleep. She sat up from the bed and walked towards the window, stretching out her tired arms. The sun was starting to rise up now and she should probably do something now. Opening the curtains, she looked over the large glass windows, seeing the blue sky getting brighter.Maybe she should begin cooking breakfast for Zach from now on. She would enjoy taking care of him. Anna walked over to her new wardrobe and took some decent clothes to wear. After that, she m finally headed down to the kitchen. She took her time, preparing a delicious breakfast and after a few minutes, she was already done. She couldn’t wait for Zach to eat his first breakfast in bed with her. What about some juice? Perhaps she should check the fridge for
She moaned as he suddenly caught her lips in a deep kiss. He kept kissing her all the way down to her soft neck, planting little kisses. Then he removed the strap of her bra, kissing down her breast and sucking her nipple. Anna cried out softly, hugging his head and arching towards him in ecstasy.He sucked her other nipple, giving fair treatment to both her breasts before looking up at her again with intense darkened eyes.“Zach, please,” she heaved.“Tell me what you want, kitten,” he growled.She bit her lower lip, cheeks turning pink. “I wanna ride you.”“Really?” he growled, just as she began slowly and softly moving on top of him, encouraging him.“Really.” She agreed, licking her lips.“Did you enjoy you have fun today?” Zach asked, gazing at her face with her pretty eyes and long curly hair. She was the epitome of beauty and he doubted she didn’t know it. Ev
On her way upstairs, Anna found Diana playing on the empty hallway. The little girl was playing with a statue of a guy, acting as if she was dancing with it. Anna almost chuckled, seeing Diana acting as a grown up when all Anna ever wanted right now was to be a child again. If she could only bring back the good times.“Diana, what are you doing here and why are you still up at this late hour?” she asked, touching the girl’s soft hair.Diana looked up at her with a frown. “I’m dancing with the late Alpha Gabriel. Besides, it’s too early for me to sleep.”“Alpha Gabriel? Your grandfather?”“Uh-huh.”“Where’s your mom?”She shrugged. “She fell asleep right after drinking a lot.”“You should really sleep now as well. Because if you wake up early, perhaps we can go shopping.”She shrugged. “I don’t really like shopping.”“What do you wan
“We’re truly sorry about what happened,” Kyro said, as he took Anna to a corner and decided to apologize.It was already a few hours later when everyone had left after the celebration of the new Luna’s first official day. If she would think about it, she also faced the very first challenge of being a Luna — anger management. A problem was placed before her and she didn’t know what to do at first, because it was a problem she couldn’t fix. But now, she could finally see that she did the right thing — acceptance.Ursa and Zach had a past but it wasn’t something she should be angry of, as long as nothing was still happening between them. She knew Zach and she knew he wouldn’t do anything that could end up losing her in the process.“No, it’s alright,” she replied sincerely. “But perhaps you can tell me more about what happened between Zach and Ursa?”Right now, Ursa had fallen asleep in her own mess of drinks and
Ursa? And Zach?Anna sat speechless as everyone looked at her with a shocked face, awaiting her untasteful response. How the hell did she not know this? Did Zach have a lot of girls? This fact alone made her feel so hurt. Her heart felt like it’s breaking. How would she know if Zach didn’t have any feelings for Ursa anymore? Especially when Ursa seemed like she still hasn’t moved on from Zach. What exactly happened between them?“Judging by your reaction, I can see he hasn’t told you anything about me—“She was stopped by a sudden punch on the table, breaking the glass to pieces. Everyone was shocked to see Alpha Zach standing up and glaring down at Ursa. “If you won’t stop speaking, I’ll be forced to order you to leave my home. I welcomed you into my pack with kindness and respect, and this is how you’ll repay me? By shoving my past to my face and my new Luna?”Ursa didn’t seem scared at all. She shrugged, seeming
“What are you talking about? I was fine on the ride. I’m stressed from seeing all these food with no wine.”“Can I have some wine here?” Charles called one of the butlers, bringing wine on the table. He looked at Ursa with a raised eyebrow. “Happy?”“More than when I got here,” she scoffed, quickly taking a glass of wine and sipping it.“Don’t mind her,” Lyla whispered to Anna with embarrassment.“No worries,” Anna mouthed back.“I'm sorry, Kitten,” Zach apologized beside her, holding her hand."Don't be."Soon the vampires began eating everything on their table, getting tipsy over a few glasses of wine. "What's it like to be a human, Luna? To be normal?" Lyla asked, looking over at Anna."Well, it doesn't feel any different." She shrugged, remembering the time she used to live in the city. "It just feels normal.""That's awfu
Anna knew she could be dealing with a threat but trouble doesn’t send a warning. It could be just a simple misunderstanding and she shouldn’t make a big deal out of it. Even then, she felt so confused and troubled. Andrew didn’t seem to be the kind of guy to betray Zach but he sure acted nonchalant about a disrespectful joke. One thing she knew however, she had to find Zach and make sure he was okay.From across the room, a sea of people flooded the whole floor. Different werewolves dancing in rhythm and talking out loud. She tried to get past them but someone grabbed by the arm and stopped her.“Luna, you’re right on time,” Vincent said, giving her a glass of wine and pulling her to a group of friends. “You having fun?”“Not really. I need to get to Zach.”“Don’t worry about him, he’s a big guy. He can take care of himself.”“I know. I just need to see him right now.”“What seems t

Jake kept her company all throughout the night. They both ended up drinking wine, talking about life. Anna told him everything that happened to her, how she first shifted and how it felt so amazing and different to be a werewolf.“You really are something,” he chuckled. “A white wolf. Different from the rest of us.”“I know, right? Even Bea told me she hadn’t seen a white wolf in decades.”“You’re a rare kind. I knew it from the beginning.” Jake gazed at her sideways and could only appreciate her beauty. Even now, she seemed so untouchable. She was an angel and he was merely an earthly being who couldn’t ever reach her.“You were my first friend after all,” she said, glancing back at him with a little smile. “Do you think I can handle being a Luna? It seems rather challenging.”“Of course, you can handle it. Well, it won’t be easy. But there’s nothing the famous white wolf girl cannot face.”
