Killian wore a bright smile as the woman faced him. He placed his hand across his chest, and returned the bow.“Moon priestess. Thanks for coming to my aid. I can't phantom what could have happened if not for your sudden appearance.” He said with a sigh. He stared into the sky, his mind reeling with different thoughts.The moon priestess noticed Killian's expression, and joined him in staring at the hot-burning sun.“Are you worried about the rogue wolf that just attacked you?” The moon priestess asked, while Killian flung his gaze at him. He heaved a deep sigh, and nodded.“You are indeed the wisest on the land. It took you nothing to figure out my thoughts.” Killian replied, shifting his gaze back at the blue sky which had almost turned yellow due to the scorching sun.“I also know that you are dead worried about Sara's disappearance.” The moon priestess stopped, staring at Killian while she monitored all of his reactions.The words were like a huge magnet to Killian as it drew ever
Jared ran through the woods, scanning the environment as he leaped into the pack. It was beginning to get dark, and fortunately for him, he wasn't noticed as he stealthily ran into his house. He headed straight to his study, groaning in pain as he held his bleeding arm.“Nicolas!” He called out, and a man jumped inside through the window.“Sire. You called me.” He said, placing his arm across his chest as he bowed before him.“I got injured, and no one must know of my injury. Bring me that medicine.” He pointed to a silver bottle that laid on the desk while he crashed on the seat.Nicolas took the bottle and handed it over to Jared.Jared forcefully tore the part of his clothes were he had been injured, revealing a deep claw-like injury. Nicolas knew he must have been involved in some sort of a brutal fight, and the assassination didn't go as planned.“I thought Killian and his wolf were still weak, how come you are injured so badly?” Nicolas asked, staring at the wound in shock. The
“Oh…I tripped accidentally and fell over a huge rock when I went hunting.” Jared replied to her, his eyes twitching nervously as he tried cutting off Lydia's gaze from his'. He tried to maintain his composure as he didn't want to risk revealing everything in front of Lydia.“Hunting? But it's not even nightfall, and your hunting clothes are still with me. Did you forget that you gave them to me the last time?” Lydia asked him, her voice was a mix of mockery and tease.Jared’s heart stopped for a second. He had made up the lie within seconds and had not properly assessed it before it slipped out of his mouth. He flung his gaze at Clara, giving her an icy look. He knew it was due to Clara's influence, Lydia was not that clever to figure out a lie within seconds.“Yeah… actually…it was an unplanned hunt, and I had no time to prepare. Also, I was looking for my hunting clothes all over the house, but I gave it up as time went by.” Jared stammered, biting his lower lip and staring into the
The metal door made a screeching sound, revealing some streak of light as Leon walked in with a box in his hand.Sara hissed as soon as she set her eyes on Leon. But still, she couldn't help the cool breeze that blew inside.She had been locked up by Leon and she couldn't recall how many days that had passed. Since she had no access to sunlight, she could only count the seconds slowly, eventually losing count.“What do you want here?” Sara snapped, her eyes burning with mixture of rage and fury.Leon smiled and stared at her for some seconds, he then bent by her side, moving his hand on Sara's face.Sara felt immediately irritated by his actions, he bit his fingers and spat on his face.“Don't you dare touch me!” She snarled, breathing hard, and anxious.She moved her eyes away from Leon's gaze who wore a mischievous smirk on his face. He wiped off Sara's spit, and stared smilingly at the scar from her bite. Blood was gushing out from the wound, but he seemed to derive pleasure from i
“I am afraid she can't be saved.” The physician told Zayne, who sighed upon hearing the news. He placed his hands on his waist and paced the hall. His face wrinkles as he racks his brain for a possible solution to the disaster that had hit the red moon pack.“My Alpha.” A guard ran in with a great speed, looking flustered and disturbed.“What is it? How's it going?” Zayne asked hurriedly, his eyes darting sideways as the guard knelt before him.“Ten more people are confirmed dead. The plague is spreading, and the people are dying!” A hush of murmur swept across the hall, each one of the elders muttering some indistinct words.A huge plague had suddenly hit the grounds of the red moon pack, affecting almost all of the residents of the pack. Even their farms were not left untouched, a strange famine accompanied the plague, all their farm produce became rotten, and the crops on the field were destroyed by unseen forces.“My Alpha, the moon goddess is angry, we must find Sara, if we want
“Oh no!” Sara shivered as she heard the rustling sounds of leaves being stepped on. Someone was making his way to her, and the person is most likely Leon. He had left a threat earlier that day, he said he was coming back for her, and Sara knew he would definitely come. Sara grabbed a rusty metal and wrapped her hand around it, her heart raced, filling the whole room with a rhythmic sound. She held on tightly to the metal as the door handle moved, followed by a ticking sound and the sudden push of the door, causing Sara's heart to skip a beat. It was raining violently outside, the wind screamed harshly, and the sounds of the raindrops touching the ground filled Sara's ears. A streak of lightning flashed across the door, revealing a handsome muscular man standing in front of the door, dripping wet even though he had an umbrella in his hands. The man wore a smirk, and slowly approached Sara. She also moved backwards slowly, before stumbling on something and falling to the floor. The
“Gosh! This is hell!” Leon cried as his eyes bled profusely. He staggered to a cupboard and took out a potion which he drank quickly. He then channeled all of his energy to his eyes, healing his wound, but the damage had been done, his left eye was gone for good.He stomped his feet on the floor, groaning hard as he licked the blood on his palm.“Sara! I will make you pay for this, I swear to make you my concubine and use you to warm my bed.” He screamed out loud. He sprang up from where he sat and ensued in a hot purchase in a bid to get Sara back.Meanwhile, Sara knew Leon would never give up chasing after her even after he injured him, so she ran swiftly through the woods, carrying her legs with all of the energy left in her.“For my child, I must survive.” She muttered to herself.She had only run a few distance when she heard some fast approaching footsteps behind her. Her mind raced, and her pulse quickened. She knew it would be none other than Leon. She increased her pace and
“Aren't you being too cruel?” Clara asked wilfully as she approached Jared. She folded her arms and gave Jared a long stare.Jared wore a mischievous smile on his face and reciprocated the stare;“What do you mean? I don't quite understand.” He replied to her.Clara fumbled with the pen on the table, and suddenly looked into Jared's eyes.“Don't play dumb with me, Jared. I know everyone of your plans. You took such a great effort to send her there, and you even gained her trust alongside. Killing two birds with a stone, what a brilliant plan.” She smiled, clapping her hands at Jared.“You know too much.” Jared gave her a stern look, moved closer to her, and held her by her throat. Clara gasped and tapped Jared's hand but he didn't loosen his grip.“I…can help you. As long as Killian dies, I am ready to do anything.” Clara stammered. Her words caught Jared's interest, and he slowly released his grip.He stared intensely into her eyes for some moments before giving her a warm smile.“Yo
A wave of headache struck Sara as she lifted her eyelids. She placed her hand on her forehead, glanced at her surroundings, and her eyes popped out in shock.She sat up on the bed, and the door opened almost immediately.Sara's heart skipped a beat, and a one-eyed man walked into the room, looking very cold and stony. He had an object that seemed like a knife in his hand, pointing it at Sara as he slowly approached her.Sara could feel her heart racing as the man approached her, she began to shift backwards, shaking in fear and agony.“What…who are you? And…what do you want from me?” Sara fidgeted, her voice filled with fear. She held on tightly to the bed's cover, while her body trembled without control.The man suddenly stopped in his steps, his expression changed from being cold to curious. He furrowed his brows and bit his lower lips;“What? Are you trying to play dumb with me? You don't remember you caused this?” The man yelled, pointing his finger towards his blinded eye.Sara's
Marie, who had been silent throughout the ordeal slowly alighted the car, wearing a wide grin on her face.She walked towards Zayne, smiled at him and bent beside Angela's cold body.She took a deep breath, and ran her fingers on her face;“You used to care so much about money, that our lives were nothing to you. You thought you could always use us as your money making machine,” she paused, shaking her head slowly.“You would never have thought that a day like this would befall you.” She continued before letting out a sigh.She stood up and faced Zayne.“Thank you so much, I am very grateful for your help.” She bowed slightly and smiled at him.“You are welcome, and don't feel too grateful, she is very useful to me, even in her dead body.” Zayne giggled. Both Frederick and Marie wondered what he meant as they furrowed their brows.“Useful to you? You haven't told me how.” Frederick said, his brows raised in confusion. Zayne glanced at him, smiled, and then patted him on his shoulders.
“Why did you stop me, Frederick? I could have pulled some teeth off that man's jaw just now.” Zayne hissed, rolling his eyes all around as he exuded a sharp not breath.“C’mon! You think it's that easy? Those men were armed, Zayne. If I had not stopped you, your head would probably be lying on the floor right now. I guess you don't know who Armando is.” Frederick mumbled. “Alright. So, what's the plan now? I want to leave here as soon as possible, meet with Sara and take her back to the red moon pack. It will soon be the next full moon and you know my presence is mandatory.” Zayne chipped in. The arena was already getting dull and scanty, most of the people had left already except for some hard drunkards who were still savoring their drinks.Frederick moved closer to Zayne, inched near his ear and whispered;“We will ambush Angela. She normally walks with two bodyguards, with our wolves’ strengths, we should be able to take them down. Then we can save Marie and get the money to ourse
“Yeah…you all heard that right. I want her, for a hundred million dollars.” He muttered, his lips carving sideways as he plastered a mischievous smile onto his face. He walked majestically, climbed the stage, and approached Marie.He buried his face into her neck and sniffed at her scent.“Lovely, what a nice way to spend the night.” His mischievous smile turned into a beaming one. He rolled his eyes all over Marie, bit his lower lips and swallowed hard.“I have always wanted every part of you in my arm, guess you can't escape it now.” He whispered into Marie's ear and laughed out loud. Marie forced herself back to her feet, threw the man a disgusting look, and silently hissed.The man was the well-known Armando. The wealthiest man in the city, who could easily get anything that he wants at his fingertips. The laws were made and bent for him, his presence only would make politicians bow and beg for mercy.“Master Armando. You needn't have come by yourself. You could have just put a ca
“knock knock” Marie's eyes darted towards the door, a huge silence swept across the room, as they all stared into each other's eyes.“I will get it.” Marie whispered and walked briskly towards the room. She gently opened the door and stuck her head outside. One of her boss’s girls stood in front of her, giving her a cold sharp smile. Marie's eyes widened and her heart raced as she identified the girl.“Miss Marie, it's time. Miss Angela said you should meet up with her now.” The girl said and turned to leave.She suddenly halted in her steps. Maire could see her lips spread in a wide smile.“Also, you don't want to keep those men waiting, do you? You know they can't wait to have you on their beds tonight…as their sex toy that you are.” The lady snapped and walked away.Marie sighed. Slammed the door shut and faced Zayne and Frederick.“Who is she?” Zayne inquired, sensing a hint of grief on her face.“One of Angela's girls. She came to remind me of the time.” Marie replied and walked
“Are we still going there?” Frederick asked Zayne. He guessed the message he received should probably be reacted to Marie's issue.Zayne took in a deep sigh, nodded his head, and faced Sara. He curved his lips beautifully, displaying an affectionate smile.“How about you stay in a hotel for some moment? I have something important to attend to, and I will be back as soon as I am done.” Zayne asked her, slowly grabbing her hand and rubbing it gently.Sara thought for a while before nodding.“Not a bad idea, I will be fine.” She replied, trying to wear a smile. Even though she could feel the mate pull drawing her closer to Zayne, she still somehow felt empty, as if there was a space in her heart that Zayne's presence could not fill.“Why should she stay in the hotel? If you don't want her to stay with the old man because of her identity, she could stay in my place for the main time.” Frederick offered. Sara wondered how Frederick knew she was a werewolf. Although she found him a bit stra
“Do you really want to work with Marie? That woman might be devilish, what if she is playing pathetic? She is a woman of unknown origins, remember.” Frederick said in a single breath as they walked out of the bar.Zayne suddenly stopped in his steps and sighed;“There is only one way to find out though, and we have to find it out ourselves,” Zayne replied to him. He patted Frederick's shoulders and hopped into Frederick's car.Frederick stood by the car's door, staring at Zayne.“Do you really want to stand all day staring at me? C’mon, let's visit Sara as fast as possible.” Zayne said to Frederick. Frederick sighed and also hopped into the car, driving at top speed.The first half of the journey was as silent as a graveyard; each one of their minds was occupied with various thoughts.“Do you think the old man will believe us?” Zayne asked as they wheeled into the compound.“Well, didn't you say you know some things which are enough to prove your claims? Or were you just bluffing?” Fr
“Didn't you…just say you rejected your mate?” Frederick stuttered in shock and sprang up from his seat, twitching his eyelids in confusion.“Calm down, man. You don't understand.” Zayne sighed. He raised his hand at Frederick and tried to get some words out of his mouth, which seemed stuck deep down his throat.He grabbed the bottle of wine and took a quick shot.“This is what happened basically….she was mated to me, but I rejected her; now the moon goddess wants me to have her back, or else…” he paused, his lips quivering, while he blinked frantically.“Or else what?” Frederick asked him, furrowing his brows as he tried to make sense of Zayne's explanation.“Or else every single soul in the blue moon pack would die!” Zaybe mumbled, throwing his hands into the air. Frederick staggered, he opened his mouth but was closed back by the intensity of shock that channeled through his nerves.“What?” That was the only word that could escape his throat. He wore a more confused look, he had nev
The hustling and bustling of the human world never ceases to captivate Zayne as he visits San Francisco one more time. He gasped at the fascinating cars, the colourful billboards and the long driveway.It's been years since he last visited the human world, and he had come again to visit his old friend.“Oceanview’s club.” He muttered to himself with a smile. He grabbed a cellphone and threw a call across to someone who seem special judging by how happy he looked.“If you are a minute late, you will pay a huge fine for that.” He said to his friend. He slid his phone into his back pocket and took in a deep breath.“Time for some enjoyment.” He stretched his arms and yawned. “All these years as the Alpha of the red moon pack has nearly made me forgot the life and joy of this part of the world.” As he walked into the club, over ten beautiful ladies ran to him.“Zayne! It's been years, why don't you visit us more often?” Marie, the most beautiful lady in the bar said to him. He stared int
