Elizabeth

I woke up the next morning feeling bright and okay. I could still feel the pain in my body due to my bruises and injuries. When I opened my eyes first thing in the morning, I saw the whole and clear face of Diego. I realized that he was beside me, sleeping soundly. His body was facing mine, so I could watch him breathing and his beautiful eyes closed.

I have known the first moment I saw him that he is good-looking. Just thinking that he really is my mate and I am going to be his wife makes me crawl skin. But it does not mean that I cringed. It is even more comforting.

The fear and surprise were still there because I just knew last night that he is a werewolf. But at the back of my mind, what about it? He never tried to hurt me. I was afraid when he transformed into a wolf and I thought he would devour me. Instead… he kissed me.

My eyes drifted to his red and soft lips. I have kissed him twice now. He got the crown of the man who is my first kiss. What a lucky werewolf! I

    ElizabethThe forest looked beautiful because the sun was shining brightly. Leaves were rustling on each other; branches swaying with the morning wind; and the chirping of the birds filled my ears. It was as if no thunderstorm took place yesterday. While I was amazed by how green nature was in my eyes, the memory of me being beaten up made me want to be depressed and cry again. Not to mention that I was also imprisoned for days, starving and no one believing in me. It made my stomach churn and gulp."Be careful."I gasped a little bit when I noticed that I was about to bump into a tree if Diego did not just pull me against his chest. My chin bumped on his body and my eyes got immediately dozed by his red eyes. He was pursing his lips and deadpan looking at me. His hold of me felt so right and made my butterflies scatter inside my stomach. "Are you fine? It looks like you are in a deep introspection that you almost got a wound on your forehead if you had just bumped into that tree," h

    Elizabeth I devoured all of the soup with just one sip in front of me. Diego was only watching with amusement in his eyes, but I was too busy for me to look at him back. I finished three vegetable soups in a row with his amused reaction and motionless body. “Do you want some?” I offered him and pointed to my bowl with the wooden spoon.He tilted his head, showing the sharpness of his square jaw. He then shook his head with a frowning expression.“Don’t even exert an effort to offer me with your soup. It even looks like you don’t want to share,” he said with a sarcastic raising of an eyebrow.I snorted and pushed the bowl in front of him. “Please, you have to eat. You need to be full, alright?” I said with a smile on my face.His eyes drifted on my soup then abruptly to me. Without averting his gaze, he slowly accepted my bowl, so I indulged it towards him. I watched him move another wooden spoon that was unused. He raised his eyebrow, scoured a hot liquid from the spoon, and graduall

    "Yeah," I said slowly in agreement and lowered my head. “You are right. I have no choice but to come back home when there is no one to believe in me in the first place.”“Right,” he said. “And there is nothing you can do about it.”He put his hand on my knuckles. He caressed my hand carefully, and I watched it discerningly. I am amused by the fact that he did not even try to avoid his gaze. He just kept watching me, and before I was uncomfortable. Now, I am clinging into it because it makes me feel safe.“But I am here, Elizabeth,” he whispered huskily, the reason why I lifted my gaze so I could see the glimmering sparkles of his red eyes that were hit by the sunrays through the window. “I am here beside you, because I believe in you.”My heart constricted because of the ponderous weight of his words. I slowly smiled at him to show that I appreciate what he is doing to me.“Okay,” I said again and nodded. “I don’t know if this is gonna work out, but I’ll try to understand what the futu

  • The Alpha's Sanity   Take The Risk With Me

    “All my life, I have never dreamed of being connected with any kind of royalty, especially in this type of situation where I become your wife!” I said, even if I was being redundant. “I don’t want to die early, Diego!”“I know,” he agreed and nodded.“So how could I take all this?”“Will you take this all if I was just a mere, ordinary werewolf?” he fired back sarcastically, making me be silent. “I thought you said a while ago that you are gonna take a risk with me? What is this reaction of yours as if I am a disgusted husband you will ever have?”“No, that is not what I meant-““So you’re saying that you’d be miserable if you were with me?”I dropped my jaw, but he was deadly serious. It did not make me speak for a while.“Imagine that you still have everything to know about me, and yet, with just the obvious factual information I told you right now, you are rumbling about it now. What about the other things that you still don’t know about?” he suggested."Diego, you are taking the wr

  • The Alpha's Sanity   Aurora, Diego's Friend

    ElizabethDiego was the one who first knocked on the door of the house we encountered in the middle of the forest. I ventured my eyes in the surroundings and there were no pots for plants or even flowers. It is just a house… like it is not an expectant factor that a female being is living here. If I would live in this house, I would emblazon the place with many decorations, a garden in the backyard, and a puppy circling around the corner would make a perfect home.Hmmmm…I smiled at my imagination, visualizing a home that I can decorate with.“What are you thinking?” Diego suddenly asked in the middle of my amusing thoughts. I shook my head while smiling innocently. “Nothing,” I answered briefly.He would have asked another question, but it was too late when the wooden door opened up and showed a beautiful, young lady with a black lipstick. She was thin, but thinner than me. Her dress was black, her shoes were also black, but her skin is white like paper. Her black eyes glimmered with

    Elizabeth“So what do I do to express that I am pleased to meet her?” I asked.“Just be nice to her.”“Okay,” I said and nodded, now regarding Aurora who was pretending that she was not listening. “Uhhh, hey, Aurora. I love your black lipstick.”Diego chuckled on the other side as if what I said was ridiculous. Aurora on the other hand chuckled nervously and flew her hand to her lips, as if pretending that she was not offended.“U-Uhhh, my lips are not festooned with lipstick. Black is my natural color,” she said and smiled fakely.Oh, shit! I slapped my forehead and gnashed my teeth as a sign of embarrassment. “Oh, my goodness. I am so sorry for offending you. I didn't mean it,” I said, now panicking out of frustration."“Oh, don’t be. I get that comment all the time, so it’s fine,” she assured me even though I was still sorry.Diego’s laugh was still ongoing so I glared at him. To express that I was annoyed that I am not happy at her ridicule, I moved away his hand with irritation.

  • The Alpha's Sanity   The Compliments From Him

    Elizabeth I was enthusiastic as I looked at myself in the mirror. My emerald eyes were protruding, but the bruises from my body were still conspicuous. It is easy for them to be healed, of course. I just did not heal them, because maybe I liked the scenario where Diego was taking care of me the whole night.While thinking about how Diego revealed his identity without being angry at me, the touch of his lips against mine, and how he consoled me when I was lonely and cold, it softened my heart easily. Not to mention our heart to heart conversation in the eatery shop.That he would take risks with me as long as I do the same with him. That I should trust in him because my future is included with him.Then does that count in loving him in the future? I mean, I know that the more I would know him, it would not be impossible for me to love him eventually.So maybe... if we try to work it out, right? When I looked at my face in the mirror again, I was surprised by how I was smiling sweetly

    Elizabeth“But why? Is there something wrong?” I asked curiously. “Or did I do something wrong? Can you just confront me about it and not try to avoid the topic?"He groaned again as if irritated. “Stop bugging my mind, Elizabeth," he said and his tone was not pleasant even for a little bit. The attitude he was giving me was the same just like what he showed last morning. Ugh! I hate him like this! I think I would be tired of understanding him if he keeps being like this! “You can just tell me that I made mistakes back in Aurora’s house!” I exclaimed, getting irritated like him now. “Diego! Do not act like you are not hearing me, please? Confront me!"He did not answer but his shoulders tensed up. I could not help it anymore but to chase his walk, face him, and confront him face to face. Now I got to see his annoying expression. His jaw was also ticking and his face was trembling because of rage.“I don’t like you giving me an attitude when I don’t even know what I did to make you an

Nakakadugo sa ilong, alam mo iyon?"Tinawanan ko lang siya. "Hindi ko talaga alam kung bakit sa English ko pa kung pwede naman sa delivery of speech, ate," aniko.

    Maybe it was the fact that I was bothered what happened last night that I was spacing out when I went to the office the next day of work. “Secretary Castro? Are you okay?” an employee asked me when she approached me. “The paperworks you are holding are being blown away from your table.”“Huh?” I said and turned my head to the direction of my cubicle. My eyes widened when I saw that my papers are being blown away from my table that is caused by the huge air conditioner’s fan. It made me curse and ran towards it. “Shit!”The employee also lurched forward to help me get them. She kept raining me with questions if I am okay, or why I have not noticed my paperwork. I just kept nodding because I just want everything to be organized, and yet I a messing it all up. “What about your coffee, ma’am?” the female employee asked me again innocently.“Fuck…” I murmured and dropped all of the paperwork on my table. “Why is my day doing this to me?”Without wasting time, I approached the coffee mach

    NARRATION“What do you mean the vampires are alive?!” Queen Jeany exclaimed and stood up from her throne chair. “That is impossible! They are long dead!”Her loud exclamation echoed inside the throne room where all the royalties of Kingdom Monjour are holding a royal conference to discuss some serious matters. The queen is interrogating a village’s hunter, when it informed the guards that he saw creatures that are lurking inside the Dark Forest. Her Majesty was hyperventilating with her navy blue gown, shining silver crown, and expensive jewelries that she had bought from different kingdoms, except her necklace that is owned by her mother queen.The scared hunter that is hugging his bow jumped because of the furious queen. “I-It is true, Your Majesty,” he stammered and gulped intensely. “When I was targeting a reinder from the lake, I was stopped when I saw a pale man in his black clothes. He was showing his sharp fangs and red eyes under a narrow tree. I could still remember

    Just like I've said, Viramos is a small town. There was clearly no doubt that what transpired last night outside our boarding house scattered around our batch. "Talagang sinugod si Melanie kagabi?""Naglasing ba naman sa boarding House no'ng Oscar."Nag-igting ang panga ko nang marining ang dalawang classmates ko na nag-uusap sa aking likod. I pretended to be listening to the discussion of our instructor, but the topic behind me is ringing in my ears, distorting my focus on the class. "Absent pa nga siya ngayon, oh? Siguro nahiya.""As in nakita mo talaga kagabi?""Oo naman! Magkatabi lang kaya kami ng boarding house nila Melanie. Nagce-cellphone kasi ako no'n sa terasa, tapos nakarinig ako ng ingay. Sina Melanie na pala-""Excuse me. Pwede bang pakihina ng mga boses niyo? Medyo hindi ko kasi marinig si miss dahil sa inyo."I immediately gazed at Irise who seemingly is now irritated.

    "Lagi ka talagang aabusuhin dahil sobrang bait mo," sabi ni mama sa akin habang kumakain kami ng hapunan. "Hindi pwedeng ikaw nalang lahat, Jill. Magtira ka naman para sa sarili mo." Nadiin ko ang pagtusok ng kutsara sa karne ng isda dahil sa irita ko. Nakatalikod si mama sa akin dahil nasa upuan ako, habang siya at ang dalawang kapatid ko naman ay nasa lamesa. "Oo, mama. Oo," sagot ko nang matigil siya. Mukhang nahalata niyang ayaw kong pinapangaralan ako ngayon dahil sa pagod kaya natahimik din siya. Hindi sa padabog ako kumain ulit, pero nagpatuloy ako nang nakasimangot. Ramdam ko pa ang tingin ng kapatid kong babae sa akin, pero hindi ko na siya tiningnan pa. Umalis ako sa boarding house dahil gusto kong matahimik ang buhay ko. Tapos paparangalan pa ako rito? Ano, dahil lang sa tumigil ako sa pagtatrabaho at wala na akong naibibigay na pera, gaganituhin na nila ako? Huminga ako nang malalim matapos kong isubo ang panghuling kanin at tumayo rin para ilagay ang nagamit na kubye

    I could see through his eyes that he was being affected, especially when he slightly flinched the moment I slid my hand down to his necktie. Without further ado, I grabbed the paper he signed and stood up straightly. He was still motionless while I was flipping my hair, his gaze being serious at the moment and the playfulness has been eradicated after I played with him.“I am sorry to disturb your consciousness, Mr. Montenegro, and take that as a lesson to never mess with me,” I said firmly and turned my back on him, not regretting every word I said.Does he think that I forgot that he insulted me in their first and second dinner in their mansion? If he just knows me, he would know that I don’t easily forgive and I also do not know how to forget. Duh!I rolled my eyes while walking throughout the busy hallways that contained employees who greeted me. I rode an elevator to go to my boss’ office where I know that is having his work time in his office.“Good afternoon, sir,” I greeted wh

    Obsession and love are two different things. And Elizabeth would not want to experience chasing a person who can’t even fight for her. But it is even worse for her to destroy herself by loving a person too much. Too much that she would do anything to own him but would hurt other people. Elizabeth hastily opened the door of the office where her cubicle is located. It is opposite the main office of the independent director and just one looking up at the face, she would confront the door of it. But as soon as she sat on her swivel chair, she did not bother looking at her boss’ door. Instead, she placed her both hands on the side of her head, shut her eyes tightly, and hyperventilated because of what happened. Cross would surely be angry about what she did. He might be even believing Hannah instead of his girlfriend, so it is consolidated with a conclusion that he would never go after her. Not to mention the confused expression of the chairman towards her. What about the t

Before he could even step forward when he subtly reacted because of the slap Prince Ronald gave me, I glared at him and shook my head.I already said that he should trust me! Was the idea of him going here bad? He should have not been here!I groaned in pain when Prince Ronald caught my chin again and forcefully made me look at him. He was smirking devilishly and it disgusted me to think that I respected him a lot before when he is this fucked up.“I swear. I will make your life miserable forever,” he said. “I am looking forward for you to do that,” I whispered back.Because I might be doing that to you.He retreated while watching me being seized by the royal guards. The guards started to pull my arms for me to walk. I chose to obey because I do not want to meet with the bruises and cuts on my face again. Nevertheless, I have to b
