My brows were still furrowed as I sat back on the cemented chair and so did Fenris. I looked at him and he seemed to be not confused at all with his usual poker face."What is he talking about?" I asked."Bullshits." He shrugged.I slapped his shoulder. "Seriously, Fenris! What was that all about? Powerful creature, me? We have secrets? Where is he getting all that?""I don't know. All I know is don't trust any of his words."I gasped. "He said he's not the enemy.""And you believe that?" He raised his right brow."Yes." People changed and I knew Nazarus made a mistake but that shouldn't define who he is in the present.He rolled his eyes. "You need more training. I'm gonna talk to beta Jacob and---""No. You're my trainer, right? Don't give me away.""Yet you seem to be not taking my words seriously. Maybe Jacob will somehow make you listen.""I'm taking your words seriously, master." The word master sounded sarcastic. "It's just that, I have my own opinions and I just wanna express
My heart kept on racing fast I witnessed people getting attacked by some humanoid species as we aim for the exit."Oh my God!" My knees almost fell as they trembled, seeing a woman getting her head ripped.My head was spinning around. Everything was fast and hard to absorb while Fenris was still dragging my wrist."Kira, stop looking around! Focus your eyes in our direction!""But---" I looked around again; the lively Circus had become a disaster. "Fenris, we have to do something!""Yes! We have to get out of this place!""No, I mean we need to help them." I looked around. "They need help!"Fenris couldn't even dare to look around. He just shook his head. "We can't, Kira. We're not ready!" he said before pulling me again.As we rush our feet, we bumped into Jacob who was running as well. My eyes widened at the blood on his shirt and part of his shoulder."What the hell is going on?!" Jacob was catching his breath."The Dark Summoners are starting to attack. No one can freeze their pow
Fenris bowed his head as he gasped before meeting my eyes again. "You would know it. You would feel it. For now, I suggest you take a rest first. It has been a long day."My shoulders dropped but I just nodded at him. I was drained from everything and I didn't know how to be composed anymore, knowing that we could have done something to save the people but we didn't, because we weren't prepared.Before I went inside the mansion, I overheard Fenris telling Nazarus to go and leave Moonlight Claws territory. As being Nazarus, he teased Fenris first before he leave the territory with a smirk on his face.I just shook my head in disbelief. I couldn't imagine Nazarus, living here before. Hundred years ago, he was welcomed here. He used to serve here but now, he couldn't even stay here for at least one hour because he turned himself into a vampire. Maybe the saying was true, love will make you do things you thought you aren't capable of.I fell asleep, still with the tragic events flashing o
Fenris didn't utter a word. He just looked up like he was seeking an answer from above. I also stared at the high ceiling and it just made me dizzy. I blinked multiple times before I turned my gaze back at him."Fenris." I gulped as I massaged his shoulder. "Everything okay?" I asked again.He met my eyes and worries glittered on his eyeballs. "No. Everything is not okay." He gasped as he put his palms on his face. "Fuck! I have no idea what's going on."My lips thinned. I held his arms and slowly removed his palms from his face. I met his glittering eyes and all I could see was sadness. I massaged his cheek, wiping it like there were tears on it. I knew he wanted to cry but he was stopping himself. I could feel his heart aching through his eyes."Fenris, I don't know what Gonzalo told you, but I want you to know that I'm here, okay? I'm willing to listen for whatever your problems are." I stared deeply into his eyes like I was digging through his soul and calming it.He held my cheek
Slender cleared his throat after a minute of silence in the room. "Alpha Fenris, I know this is something serious and we need to take action, as soon as possible, but would you mind keeping this conversation only with the three of us? I don't wanna cause panic in our people. The less who knows about this, the better. Panic will cause more trouble and we don't need that at this time."Fenris nodded. "But I will also inform beta Jacob about this. We need to instruct our pack to train harder and smarter." He gasped. "Also, I will also send more security to take care of Vilka. She needs to be safe and she must survive this chaos."Slender nodded. I thought they were gonna talk more but then Fenris stood and walked his way to exit."Let me know when you see another relevant reading on your oracle," he said before he finally stepped out of the room.I followed him from behind with big steps as his long legs were in a rush while walking. "Can you slow down?" I gently asked. He stopped and
I held on to my breath until it completely washed away for a second. The next thing I knew, I was standing with four feet and a heavy fur body, heating like I was in boiling water.I looked at Fenris and my vision got clearer and more defined, and I could widely see how surprised Fenris' beautiful eyes were while looking right in front of me."Kira, do you hear me?" Fenris was slowly stepping towards me when I stepped back.'Don't come near me, Fenris.' My heavy body was boiling and all my senses got extra sensitive. I wasn't used to this feeling. It was annoying the hell out of my senses."Kira, listen, everything's alright, okay?" He was still stepping toward me, slowly but I kept on stepping back while catching my breath. "Do what I say, inhale, exhale."'No! I said don't come near me, Fenris! Please, don't!" My wolf mouth trembled and I felt my fangs suddenly appear. I growled which stopped Fenris from walking. I was heavily breathing inside the gigantic dog, feeling like I was e
Fenris shook his head. "I will not run away, Kira! You are my responsibility and so I need to ensure your safety! Just--- just listen to me, please! You have to believe in yourself! You can do it! You are capable and I trust you!"I squeezed my eyes closed while feeling my whole body, echoing my nerves to attack him. Anytime I knew I would fail to stop myself and I would lose control but I was really trying that my chest felt like cracking for forcing myself to stop desiring to kill him."Kira, empty your mind! Don't think of anything. Let yourself lay on nothing but void!"His voice kept on vibrating in my head like a trigger to my soul, pushing me to attack him. I howled before closing my eyes again, and with all my left air inside me, I managed to wash away every thought on my mind. I kept my mind clear and blank as the sound of nature hugged my senses. A weird vibration ran onto my body until my heavy breathing slowly goy slow and the desire to kill faded away from my thoughts. My
I didn't move for a minute while he kept on kissing my cheeks, lips, and licking my neck plus sipping it. Then slowly, the pain started going away and all I could feel was the pleasurable relaxation while he was inside me. He started moving me up and down, slowly and gently while I clung my legs tighter to his waist."Uhm..." I looked up with my eyes closed, feeling how good he was.Oh my God. I just surrendered myself to him, in the middle of the woods, right in the flowing river.The temptation of our kisses was above the hill and I couldn't help but grasp every time he would deepen himself inside me. The pine trees and birds singing made our lovemaking more relaxing like we were the king and queen of the jungle, kissing and dancing in the middle of nowhere. It felt so real. From our passionate kisses and thumping bodies, it felt like we weren't pretending and that what we had was real. That we were a real couple, madly in love with each other. The moans and thumping of our bodies
I swallowed deeply after seeing some backpacks and winter clothes that they had prepared for us. My mind was roaring everywhere, and I couldn't even sink in the information Guardian Leo was saying to me.My chest was thudding so loud, and all I could think of was I wasn't ready. I didn't expect everything to happen this quick.We rode horses to travel the cold land, and I couldn't stop glancing at Fenris every time I would think of backing up. I sighed deeply and tried gathering courage from I didn't even know where I could actually get one. Perhaps, the look of Fenris reassuring me was enough.We arrived at the strange mountain ranges, and from there, we teleported to the icy plateau on top of the hill. My hands were trembling under my gloves. Fenris held me while we were looking around the place, examining the surroundings."I don't understand," I muttered. "I can't see anything but icy mountains. Where could be the location of Darkesta's territory?"I hugged myself when the strong
What happened that night was still hunting me to this day — it had been two weeks and up until now, we were still thinking of the purpose of why Darkesta's little dogs suddenly attacked us."Claude is dead."When Fenris brought me that news, I was stunned. I thought I would be happy to hear those words but then again, I remembered he was once my friend. Even though it wasn't really for him, it was real for me and Lilien."They decided to kill him after he almost successfully transformed himself into his wolf form," he added.I sipped on my cup of coffee while my heart was still feeling unsafe. Darkesta was not only the devil, he was intelligent and whatever he was plotting against us could be the real end of our kind. I was just so frightened by that thought."What about Vilka? Do you believe her?" I asked before sipping on my coffee again.Vilka explained to us why she suddenly disappeared from the mansion a minute after our soldiers had traced foot tracks of Dark Summoners. She said
My jaw tightened as my claws gripped tighter on the ground. I stepped back, lowering my body while gazing at the three creepy humanoid wolves. They were standing on their two legs, and it made them look more monstrous. I prepared myself for a possible attack."Calm down!" The humanoid wolves were almost laughing in my ears. I didn't know they could talk to us through the mind link. "You seem to be too threatened to us. Don't make it so obvious, I suggest." The humanoid wolf in the middle kept blubbering, sounding so boastful.I glared at them deeper as I hissed. Fenris was looking much more eager. I could even hear his blood boiling so hard.Fenris howled. "What do you want from us?!" He also spoke through mind-link. The humanoid wolf on the left side chuckled like a playful yet annoying child. "You know what we want. "We will never surrender to your greedy master, you asshole!" Fenris fired back while he was scratching his pointed claws on the ground with his sharp teeth showing.
My heart thundered as Fenris' eyes and mine met. "Stay here," he commanded."What? No—" He got out of the room without letting me finish my words. I gulped before I rushed to follow him downstairs. Noises were coming from outside the mansion and when we finally exited the house, I saw some soldiers talking and discussing some things. In contrast, others were spread around the huge house, they were anticipating something, and my heart was thudding continuously for what could be it."What the hell is going on?!" Fenris exclaimed, and finally, he caught the soldiers' attention."We saw tracks of Dark Summoners leading to this place—""I know, but did you see them? How the hell did they get here without anyone sensing them?"Strange. Even I didn't sense the unwelcomed scent of humanoid wolves. "Alpha Fenris, I checked Vilka in her room, but she isn't there." A maid approached him."What?! What does she have to do with any of this? Are you sure she didn't sleep in her own house?"The mai
I swallowed deeply, convincing myself they were nothing but friends just like me and Nazarus — come on!"Yes, my cousins are regaining their strengths, thankfully."I cleared my throat before I stood properly and composed myself. My elbows hit some leaves, and I immediately noticed how quickly their eyes turned into me. "Oh, Kira!" Atasha chuckled awkwardly. "My cousins would want to give you and your mother this." She handed me two necklaces with a fang pendant."Really?" I still couldn't figure out how to interact with her. I never wanted to be fake or plastic or whatever they call it. "Yes, they've been planning to come here, but they are still regenerating their strengths — maybe next week they could thank you personally.""Oh, that's nice." I grabbed the necklaces from her soft hand. "Tell your cousins not to worry, and we appreciate their gifts and their gratitude." I glanced at Fenris, and he slightly smiled at me. My lips just thinned.I wanted to ask what they were talking
We arrived in the woods right on time while the Sun was about to rise. Good thing, the soldiers arrived earlier than us. They seemed responsible and dedicated to their tasks. We stayed near the river for a couple of hours. Fenris had been discussing something with the soldiers. They were plotting a plan while I was on the lookout for the busy group. Surprisingly, no Dark Summoners attempted to attack us. I was quite anticipating the action now, but perhaps it really was better for them not to attack or anything. The damage they could cause was too much, for sure.Since we saw no sign of attack, Fenris and I decided to go back to the mansion. He instructed the leader to inform us once anything unfortunate occurred. While we walked our way back to our house, the soldiers stayed in the woods as it was one of their duty — to guard and observe the forest.The next day was a really bad day for me. I work up without Fenris on my side. Since my body was so heavy and even my eyes, I didn't no
Nazarus just shrugged and started walking to the exit of the mansion. He looked back at me and gestured to me to follow him. I rolled my eyes before walking. I watched Nazarus back while walking. It was only at that time I noticed how neat and elegant he walked. Every step of him was really careful — I laughed at the thought of why we waste our time walking if we could just teleport. Fenris's deep gaze met mine when we reached the gate. "What did you do?* His brows crossed at Nazarus.I snaked my arm over Fenris' arm. "Where are we going?" I asked.Fenris remained to stare at Naz. Naz laughed and shook his head. "Chill! I went to the restroom and walked past her in the living room.""Where are we going, Fenris?" I asked again.Fenris finally looked at me. "You'll see."I rolled my eyes before looking at Nazarus. "Where are we going, Naz?""You'll see." He mocked Fenris.Fuck them!I crossed my arms over my chest and just followed them. We walked for a few minutes until we reached M
Slowly, the estranged man opened his eyes and quickly met mine. "You're gonna die… you're all going to die…." His huge black pupils trembled on my chest. I took a deep breath as my chest tightened.Fenris kicked the man before he stepped on his chest. "Don't listen to him." He tightened the grip of his feet on the man's chest, stiffening the Dark Summoners' human body."What do you want from us, huh?!"The man smiled strangely and slowly, he chuckled like a devil. "You're all gonna die…." He breathed out before coughing after Fenris squeezed his chest more with his feet."Fuck you! You're the one who's going to die today." Fenris grabbed his dagger and sliced the Dark Summoner's head off. I flinched and stepped back as the blood splashed everywhere. I covered my mouth. I was used to seeing brutality, but I couldn't still stop to be shocked at times."Why did you kill him? We could get information—""Do you think he will say something?" Fenris cut me off. "Think of him as Claude. He wi
Fenris raised his right brow. "You're talking about me?" "Oh, it's not important." Nazarus shrugged his hand. "Don't think too much about it."My lips thinned when Fenris glared at me. "What?" I arched a brow. "I just told him you don't like plucking the flowers in the garden."Fenris looked at the flower in my hand. I thought he was going to get it to me, but he just turned his gaze back at Fenris."What it is with the flowers that you're always giving to my wife, huh?"Nazarus raised both of his hands as if surrendering. "Just a nice gesture, calm down.""Nice gesture." Fenris scoffed. "Bullshit.""Fenris." I cleared my throat."Anyway, Fenris," Nazarus uttered. "It's perfect timing that you're here. I have to discuss something with you."Fenris' brows crossed, and so mine."About what?"Nazarus glanced at the mansion. "Can we talk inside?""Why? Can't you discuss that here?" Fenris sounded more disgusted yet intrigued.Naz looked around. "You won't wanna risk someone hearing our
