“Was it possible for someone to stalk me in the dark?”
I had been running since forever and my legs were beginning to ache badly so I had to stop and find a place to rest for a few minutes.
My breaths were shallow and quick and the cold night air kept on biting at my already weak lungs as I paused.
My ears were alert and they strained for any strange sound beyond the natural sound that the forest makes.
Someone was following me. I could feel it.
I kept breathing heavily, my eyes monitoring everything that was happening.
I pressed my back against the trunk of a large tree and its rough bark dug into my skin. I was quite sure that the bark of the tree must have given me some marks.
My heart pounded furiously in my chest. I feared that my heart beat was so lou

Lucien“Oh, for goodness sake, Irene! Is it because I allowed you to talk back to me that made you grow wings?” I thundered.This defiant being had made hell set loose and I was going to teach her a lesson.“Do your worst, Lucien! I don't care if you are going to kill me not. Afterall, I was almost killed by those rogues and I'm in pain. You can sum it all by sending me to an early grave!”She was still blabbing. No, no, no I couldn’t take it anymore.I grabbed her by the arm, shoving her against the nearest tree.“Do you think this is a joke?” I asked, my voice shaking with rage and she refused to look me in the eyes. “Look at me, you dumb ass!” I ordered, moving her face towards me. “Do you even understand what you have done? Do you understand the

EveThe door creaked faintly as I pushed it open. For some seconds, my knuckles lingered on the handle before I finally took that bold step to go in. “What if he sends you out?” A voice asked and I took a good look at myself. “There is no way he will be able to resist me. No way!” I was very much aware that Lucien’s mind was a mess after everything that had been happening to him. He had been receiving threats from every side and the only thing that might be on his mind was how he could come out of his mess. But here I was dressed up in sexy lingerie, right inside his room. My pointy nipples could be seen through the lingerie, and one would think it would make his mouth water, but that was not the case. “What do you want from me, Eve? What the hell are you doing in my room by this time of the day?” he asked, readjusting himself on his bed. “What do I look like I want? Isn't it easy? Can't you tell with your eyes?” I asked, moving closer to him to touch his bare skin. His skin

Lucien “You all know why we are here. I called for a meeting because it is urgent. As you might have heard, this pack is no longer safe for its People!” I informed the people who were present for the meeting. This meeting has been long overdue as things had begun to go overboard and I was not willing to take chances. “What are the guards doing then, if this pack can be invaded by our enemies?” One of the pack elders asked and silence seized in the meeting hall. “They are doing their best. I clearly won't be able to blame them. Sometimes, these invaders might outsmart out which is pretty normal. The guards are doing their best and I make sure they are,” I answered on their behalf. Note, I was not trying to defend them because there was no point doing that. “You think they are? I think that the guards are the one allowing the mishaps,” another notable member of the pack shouted from the far end where he was seated and ot

LucienIt was useless trying to read the documents in front of me. They kept getting blurry the more I stared into the papers.I had read the same page five times now, yet not a single word had stuck.There were a lot of things on my neck, a lot of things to do. Yet, I couldn't commit anything to memory?“Something must be wrong with me. I was not like this before,” I growled in frustration.I had to give myself a second chance and while I was trying to go through the files, I discovered that the files were not as complete as before.This only meant one thing, someone else must have laid hands on it.“Damn it! These people keep testing my patience!”With a frustrated growl, I shoved the papers aside, sending them scattering across the desk.

IreneMy tight shut eyes opened slowly and I sat up immediately I woke up from the bed.Air rushed straight into my lungs and it felt like this was actually the first time since forever that I was breathing normally.My body jerked forward as if I had been shocked back to life. My heart pounded wildly in my chest and I could still hear the steady beep of the machine beside me.What…? What just happened? Where have I been?I held my chest with my right hand and I blinked Continuously, allowing my eyes to adjust to the dimly lit room.All I could see around me was the hospital bed and the white walls.I was in a hospital. But why? How did I get here?I tried to put my brain to work but I ended up thinking too much and the last thing I remembered was….

LucienMy phone rang out and I didn't bother to check the caller ID.I was too deep in work and my hands were so busy with these files. We were doing a lot of sorting of papers to send them out to other packs who were willing to come into an alliance with her.I had been out here for hours, making sure that everything was going as planned. Nothing had to get missing, no matter what.Another ring suddenly came in and in annoyance, I wiped my hands on my pants and finally answered.“What?” I asked in such a way that the person would know that he or she was disturbing me.“Alpha,” a voice on the other end called out. “This call is from the hospital.”Everything inside me froze. The hospital? Damn, then this has to be related to Irene. I hope nothing was wrong.&nb

Irene“You think I’m afraid of you? I keep telling you countless times that I'm not afraid of you,” I scoffed, folding my arms as I glared at him.Lucien stood there with his grey eyes that were dark with something I could not tell.I knew that Lucien would be able to do something unbelievable but I didn't know what to expect. Either way, I prepared my mind.He tilted his head and the corner of his lips twitching, as if amused. I wonder what was funny to him.Was it the fact that I had his blood or the fact that I was challenging him?“I could end this right now like you always wanted,” he informed me, reaching into his belt.A glint of silver caught my eye and before it could register in my brain that what I was staring at was a dagger, I swallowed hard.I didn't

LucienI needed to stop thinking about her and now, it felt like I had been intoxicated by her.But the moment I left the elders' meeting that night, my feet moved on their own, leading me toward the hospital to see the lady who was about to destroy my mental state.The meeting with the elder's had been long, filled with endless discussions about the state of the pack, the rival pack trying to gain ground in the North, and some other trivial issues that made it difficult for me to think properly.Yet, despite all the pressing issues, it was Irene’s face that filled my thoughts.Every time I tried to focus on anything else, her face, her eyes, her scent, the softness of her lips against mine flooded my mind, blocking everything else from coming.I clenched my jaw and let out a breath, disappointed and irritated with myself by what

Lucien I could feel my wolf stir the moment I saw Chris go too close to Irene. He had been trying to harass her in my very presence without fear. Had he been blind to see that I was there? Or had he forgotten his place? The possessiveness slammed into me like a rush of waves, tightening my chest and heating up my blood. My fingers clicked and my hand tightened as I took a slow breath, willing myself to stay calm. Chris had no idea what he was playing with. Maybe I had been too cool with him, and he hadn’t realized how bad what he was doing was. And as for Irene? She sat stiffly in her chair, her face tight and her eyes dark with fear, so I thought. I caught a slight tension in her shoulders. I also saw the way her body fidgeted and the way her hand curled under the table as if she were restraining herself from doing something silly. She didn’t like his presence. Neither did I, and I was going to show him that now. “Back off!” I yelled at him, my voice filled with enough aut

Lucien“Women are the greatest manipulators.”I was beginning to understand when my uncle used to say this. They must have attended the same school because they all exhibited the same character. I couldn't take my mind off the moment Irene came to meet me. Thinking about it made my skin burn with anger. She thought she was going to seduce me just like that? I was not a sex starved man! Come on, I had a lot more going on with me than to get seduced. My room was quiet when my phone rang after all my rants. I didn’t need to check the caller ID because I already knew who it was. I had been expecting this and it was surprising it came in later than expected. I let it ring a few more times before answering. I didn't want to come off as desperate just because I answered the call quickly. “Kael. You called me. Is all well?” I asked and a smooth low chuckle echoed through the line. He was trying to make me annoyed but it wasn't going to work this time. I had conditioned my mind not t

IreneMy intrusive thoughts were at it again but I couldn't let them win this time if I wanted to get what I wanted. Camille had told me to meet her at the training grounds at dawn, and I had spent most of the night thinking about what exactly I wanted to gain from this.Was it the strength? The confidence? The ability to protect myself?Perhaps, it was all of the above. I had been powerless for too long and that needed to change.I walked toward the training ground, away from where warriors usually trained. My mind was already running through the possible explanations I could give if I were caught. Maybe I could lie that I wanted to watch the pack soldiers on the other end who were training. I could make it look like I was just simply curious because of the penalty. But all of that fell away when I heard Lucien’s voice from afar. "Rest for now. We cut off contact with others at the border until further notice."I slowed my steps, and rolled my eyes. .Cut off contact? Why?The p

IreneFor the first time in a long while, I didn’t feel like I was completely alone. Camille’s presence at dinner changed everything and I wanted to punch her, to kick her and to yell at her for leaving me all these while. I wanted her to apologize for everything she had done to me. I had been very lonely ever since I got here. I could see it in the way Lucien stole glances at me. He was a little tense. When he noticed that I caught him staring at me, he turned to Eve. Eve's face fell every time Camille laughed at something I said. Chris was just as annoying as ever but I didn't seem to mind him. He was a retard anyway and sometimes, I think he's just the best for Eve because they are so much alike. But I? I was having the time of my life.For once, I wasn’t sitting in silence, picking at my food while the others gossiped about me or cast judgmental glances in my direction. Tonight, I was engaged. I was laughing, talking, and making sure everyone knew that I was still very mu

LucienI enjoyed the way these two ladies attacked themselves. They made things more fun and more tense. All of these make me forget my worries for a brief second. While that was good, it wasn't a responsible way of handling things. I leaned back in my chair with my arms crossed as I watched Irene and Eve glare at each other like two wolves about to tear into each other's flesh.Eve was quite predictable. She had a sharp tongue and could barely conceal her anger. But Irene? She was very different from Eve. She had a way of revenging and making you pay for the crime you committed just by getting under your skin like thorns.Chris sat stiffly beside me, watching what was playing out in front of us. He began to communicate through the mind link to me and I could see exactly what he was talking about. "She’s unbearable. Get rid of her,” he said, talking about Irene. I tightened my face, suppressing the irritation that he creeped onto me. I had expected something more intelligent fr

IreneDid I have to keep complaining in order to get what I want? I guessed so and I was beginning to give into what life already had in store for me.Lucien had mentioned something the other time and he left me hanging. I had so much pride left inside of me and I could not see myself asking him what he meant by that statement. I held my head down with my two hands and breathed heavily. This was more difficult than I thought but I might still be capable for the journey ahead. Who knows?As I soliloquized, I was able to hear him come before I saw him and From the sounds of the footsteps coming closer to me. I knew that he was here. There was a way he walked. It was different from that of others. Lucien was back. I couldn't think twice about that. I stood by the window, pretending that I didn't just confirm that he was here. I hid the smile on my face and wore a very straight look so that he wouldn't mistake me for someone happy. I was not a happy woman. I was far from that and

LucienI was unable to overcome the disappointment wrapping around me. The moment Irene said she was cursed, something inside me shattered. Was this really true or was she trying to pull my legs?I couldn't tell but I felt a feeling inside me that I didn't want to talk about. Why did she suddenly talk about it? There was no way I would want to involve myself with a cursed person. It would mean that myself and my lineage would be cursed. Oh, damn it! I had wanted to mark her. I had wanted to claim her and make her mind. But, she had the boldness to look me dead in the eyes and tell me I would die if I loved her. I was not the type that should be afraid of curses. But, there was something different about this. It sounded so much like a lie and at the same time, it sounded so true. That was what confused me the most. If it was a lie then it was a cunning and desperate attempt to push me away from her. I had never been a man who tolerated deceit. But if it was true, I had to be

IreneThat was so cunning of him. He knew what exactly he was doing and if he thought he was going to put me in a tight spot, then he was only joking. I knew what I wanted and it wasn't him. I was also not going to fall into any trap prepared for me by him. I lifted my chin, meeting Lucien’s piercing eyes which went straight into me. “Behead me,” I dared him and my eyes didn't blink. He didn’t react at first and the look on his face was far from normal, but his grip on the chair’s armrest tightened. Of course, he was not expecting that from me. He thinks I was one of those random ladies who would plead with him to mark me. I didn't need his mark on my skin. What did I need such a silly thing for?“Excuse me?” he asked and his voice became dangerously low. I swallowed hard but refused to show any sign of weakness. Why was he bent on me repeating myself? “You heard me, Lucien. If marking me is the only way you would let me go, then kill me,” I repeated. This time my voice was
