Nathan Black
How should I tell her?
How should I tell her that tomorrow would be the day I would be leaving the Solis?
“Mind your step. They had set some traps near the area.” I stated, seeing Nico walking too closed to the marked trees.
It had been long since I had seen him. He used to train under my surveillance before he was scouted as the right hand for head of intelligence in the Luna Pack.
It hadn’t gone unnoticed by me. How most of the ones who were sent here were somehow renowned in our pack. Must have been the work of my father.
It showed how crucial this matter was to him. For him to go to this ext
Emma Grey ‘Tomorrow was the last day I would be assigned here. Before I returned to the Luna Pack.’ A great pang grasped my heart as a gloom overcame my emotions. It was cold. The thought of not being in the same air as him felt cold. Knowing I had wasted a month's time locked in a room when I could have spent it on him had grave a huge remorse in me. And it was uncertain as to when I could ever see him again. What should I do now? What should I say to him? However, he could be leaped up in joy to finally return back to his home. He had n
Nathan Black She agreed. With the prettiest smile winding through her lips, she agreed to my offer. It had been a long time since I was this anxious while inviting someone. Not that she was just someone. She was the one. The way she leaned towards my touch had my chest blooming in delightment. It was captivating how her eyes gleamed in contentment. With it directed exclusively towards me, I unconsciously yearned for it more than I already had. What exactly was this feeling? Aside from us being a fateful mate, a destined partner.
Emma Grey How ignorant was I to think I could live a peaceful life? I should have known better. That wherever I was and whatever I do. I could never escape from her. The grin never faltered from her lips as she folded her hand on her chest. She slowly took a step, and another, and another until she was right in front of me. I clutched on the fabric of my pants as I had never once looked into her eyes. Casting in downwards. I wanted to try. I want to try so badly. To hold her stares, to hide my fear, to show that I was not the person I was once.
Nathan Black “All of it. What we had. What we feel.” She bit her lips so hard that I could see the marks on her reddened lips. “All of it was a mistake.” And in the back of my mind, I heard it. How my heart had shattered into pieces. It was hard for me to understand. What has gone wrong? She was just fine yesterday. Then, what had happened for her to burst out like this? “I understand. But please calm down–” “And I won't be following you. So, leave.” The way she cut me off had simultaneously cut my heart deeply. Her voice was cold as if she
Emma Grey “What should we start first? Oh, I know. What about that insolent boy?” Nathan. My hand twitched to a fist. All those times, regret piling in my chest, roughly shredded my heart into nothingness. I shouldn't have left home. I should have trusted Eva. I should never escape. And most importantly, I shouldn't have gotten him involved. This was too much. To think that even Elena was involved in her scheme. All tha
Nathan Black“Here, drink this.”My fingers circling the glass, giving Ethan a tight smile while at it. He had brought me back to the living room, along with father as his room was disordered. All from my fit of rage earlier.We had quietly settled ourselves on the sofa. Father had long seated on the one sitter, while Ethan sat on the vacant seat beside me. That leaves Allan on the three seated couch, his palm uplifting his chin on the armrest.My back bent over slightly, head tilted downwards as my eyes trained on my reflection on the water. My knees supported my arms as I gripped the glass tighter.I look horrible, unorganized even. It wasn'
Emma Grey “He's here again.” My nails clenched onto my skin, hugging my knees tighter to my chest as Eva cautiously mumbled. Uneasiness filled the room, pressuring the air clouding the entire house. It had been two days since Eva had sensed Sir Joshue in the house. Though, he never once stepped near the stairs. Behavior similar to a predator toying with its prey, having us wary on our toes. The grunt coming from the bed had me instantly on my feet as I went closer to it. Emile’s eyes fluttered open, sweat glistening on his skin displaying how weak he was. I reached out for the almost dried cloth on his forehead to dipped it in the bowl of water. I placed my palm on his
Nathan Black “Nico.” His eyes instantly met mine as he nodded to my signal, dashing to the area I had assigned him to. Good, now that the last person had moved, what was left was the three of us. I took a calming breath. My heart had been pounding in my chest as soon as we had landed in their territory. “Let’s move.” My feet stridden forward, hearing the steps from both Allan and Ethan along with me. As we made our way towards Lina’s house, I couldn't help but be filled with frustration. If I had known where her house
(Five years later)Emma BlackThe wind blew, lightly gracing my hair across my shoulder. Feeling the chills of the morning air seeping through my thin nightgown, I hug myself tight.It was still early. The sky was navy blue, not yet letting the moon hide itself for the sun to rise.My eyes trained towards the lake, calm from any alive movement. Most of the living must've still been in a deep slumber, lulled by the peaceful dawn.Good thing Nathan had chosen a house with a magnificent view, enchanted my eyes with the beauty of its nature.A fond smile slipped through my lips, reminiscing the early days I had been in the Luna Pack five years ago.The first time I had met his father, it was rather awkward to say. Though, it all went better after Nathan's appointment ceremony, as he showed him the ring.The silver band of his late wife, the one he must've missed to the moon and beyond. Instantly, the second Nathan had told him everything, he pulled me into a full embrace. Threads of grat
Emma Grey"Are you sure this is all you need?" My eyes wandered across the luggage, particularly searching for any missing necessities to fill in. "Let me see. The toiletries are here, my shirts and my pants are here…" I patted the neatly folded clothes, before turning my head towards Eva. "What else do I need?" "Hmm… Maybe some snacks for traveling? I'm not sure either."I bit my inner cheek, contemplating if I should bring along my blanket. Truthfully, I never knew preparing all this stuff was somehow stressful. Formerly, we were strictly forbidden to leave the area if it wasn't permitted by Sir Joshue. Thus, it didn't ever latch into my mind for me to prepare the stuff for leaving.Now that I had to clear out my wardrobe, I don't even know what else I should bring along with me. I did have to live there for a long period of time in the Luna Pack. Luna Pack.I still can't believe it.He invited me. Nathan invited me! I almost squealed the moment he laid out the invitation. To
Emma Grey"Nathan, are you home?" I hollered.A sudden nudge from Lina had me facing her as quick. My knuckles instinctively stilled, hovering the wooden door. My brows were narrowed as I hushed, before huffing a breath, calming the anxiousness pulled in my heart. "You startled me, idiot."She snickered apologetically, "Oh, sorry. I forgot you're on your toes today." She placed her palm on my back, rubbing it in an attempt to calm me down. "Relax, I was just wondering if they're really in there or with Eva."I exhaled a breath, accepting every comfort I could possibly receive in this moment. It had me on edge since this morning. If Lina hadn't mentioned her conversation with Ethan regarding the matter, it would surely be completely far from my mind.Not when she told me they would be leaving anytime now, that their father had deemed for their return.Really, how can it slip out of my mind that Nathan would be leaving anytime sooner. The past days had been the happiest I've ever been
Nathan Black"Father had called, again. We need to head back later this week, Nat." A hum left my throat. My head tilted on the headrest of the velvet sofa lazily, finding the ceiling rather interesting than the whole conversation.Even my eyes had almost fluttered closed sleepily with how cool it was inside the guest house, seeing the sunlight almost burnt the bird's nest to dust just outside the window."Nat, do you hear me?" Ethan's voice once again greeted my ear drum, sounding more urgently. I glanced at him sidedly before darted my attention again on the white ceiling.Huh, weren't there supposed to have four lamps? One, two, three… Ah, there's four. I knew I counted them right–"Nathan!" He hollered incredulously. I heaved a sigh heedlessly. "I know."It wasn't the first time father had sent those from our pack, urging for our return. It had been several days past since the hearing, so most of them, including Nico had already returned to Luna territory.Though, he was quite
Emma Grey"Cause we're more than just a pack."Her eyes flew across the crowds, before it found mine. With her precious smile, she muttered, "We're family."I felt my lips trembled, overwhelmed with emotions meant behind the words she had spoken.To protect one another, regardless of our wolf and gender, be it a Beta, an Omega or even an Alpha. We should've done this long ago, away from the nonsense idea Sir Joshue had instilled in our mind. And like a puppet, we had dumbly followed his false teaching, without even complaining about the damage he'd done to each one of us.That we had seen our own people sacrificed with our own eyes, and yet, not once had anyone ever spoken aloud of it.If we could change it all together, I'm certain there would be a brighter day for the future of the Solis.Just then, her eyes flickered to the whole crowd, hardening her gazes yet again. "Now, to begin the said hearing, I'll now present to you all of the criminal offenses," She glanced on him, disgus
Nathan BlackPredictable.The corner of my lips lifted, amusement laid itself within my eyes. It was as if he was extremely desperate for the hearing to lack success, carrying the exact same act I had fortunate he would do.The commotion was left unblase as Eva's eyes caught mine. Good thing we met this morning."Now." I mouthed towards her, averting my sight towards Joshue. It would be entertaining to see his face crumble to the depth of sea, decayed to the deepest ocean.And seconds pass by before Eva's scent spreads through the air, eloping the people's agitation into thin air. I must admit, watching his sneering turned to a frown was pleasing to the eyes. The confusion and irritation in his eyes confessed every inch of despair he felt.The corner of my lips lifted higher as his eyes darted promptly towards mine, seeing the irritation blasted into a rageful sight.As I said."You…" He growled, baring his teeth towards me.Predictable.–(Joshue Miller's Resident Earlier)"You ca
Emma GreyEva had been excellent in her public speeches ever since we were children. But looking at her now, on a stage for a very special occasion as this really did place her in a new light.One that suited her the best."Eva's really awesome, don't you think?" The words slipped on its own, flowed unconsciously as my eyes trained on her composed figure. "Yup, I agree! Do you know how many packs there were for having a woman as a leader?" Lina muttered, glancing at me expectantly.And as much as I wanted to retort her anticipation, I must admit I actually had no idea how many there were. Truthfully, I had never heard of any woman becoming a leader. Though, I couldn't comment much on it, as I too, hadn't known of the outside world other than my very pack.Thus, a shrug was all I could muster. "Beats me."She sighed, "Yeah, that makes two of us. Kind of makes me want to leave this place and explore the world."I felt my lips twitch into a hollow smile. Someday, Lina. I'm sure of it
Nathan Black"Mrs Eva Grey, the stage is yours."Eva nodded towards Thomas, marching her feet onto the center of the stage, reluctantly giving her speeches. I admit it was one of the most exasperating things to do as a pack leader, thus, I kind of understood her disinclination.Besides that, it seemed I was a bit late to the hearing, though it was only due to Eva asking me for assistance in some matters pertaining to the event today.I guess I was an exception for running a bit behind the schedule. Good thing I had managed to spot Ethan instantly among the crowds."You didn't return home last night." I muttered heedlessly, stepping to Ethan's side, a meter away from the stage. It seemed he had been here for quite some time, seeing him almost bored to his bone.As much as I wanted to arrive with Emma earlier, it was necessary for me to discuss some matters with Eva. Which was why I had to take a detour towards Sir Joshue's house early this morning."And you must've been relieved I d
Emma Grey"Nope. Stay away from me."My brows knitted in confusion, noting how Lina had held her hands towards me. Her eyes glimpsed unimpressively while creating a distance between us.We were all called to the field for Eva's hearing today. And recognizing her silhouette from afar, I excitedly ran up towards her, albeit, the second I patted her shoulder, she jumped on her feet away from me.What's wrong with her? The second I attempted to march a step closer, she hastily shuffled backwards as though she was uncomfortable with my presence."What're you doing?" I uttered in bewilderment. She eyed me suspiciously, raising her eyebrow expectantly towards me that I almost felt offended by it."You're with him last night, weren't you?" She accused, though not that it was all false. However, the way she muttered it incriminatingly had me almost on my toes.More importantly, how did she even know that? Because, after we had kiss– I mean, pouring our feelings towards each other, Nathan had i
