Leo. "I'm worried about Kai, he is so clingy to me. Do you mind if l take him home with me?" l asked daringly, even though l knew the question would hurt Mason as his already pale face contorted a totally blank expression. He seems to be under extremely high stress and l could feel my heart torn out bit by bit. Even at the speck of not feeling anything except everything that he is feeling. His sadness, his sizzling anger and that ravaging loneliness. That emptiness calling out to me but I’m so uncertain if l should step in or not. Can l really fill him up? Even though he has made me feel complete since that fateful day we met. My ribs felt maximum and my heart got heavier, beating drastically like my days on earth were longer. Maybe if l could take Kai back home he will be able to gather himself up and recuperate. I don't need anyone to tell me that something isn't right with this house. There is no way a house owner would feel this frightened and scared in their own house. Mason
Mason. I let my back slide against the wall as my leg felt jelly. Weak, powerless and struck with shame. I sat on my hips holding onto the ground with my nails kneading the tiles heartbreakingly. I let out a sob as Leo closed the door behind him. My heart was hit by a thunderbolt as the room became overwhelmingly empty and eerie. Everything suddenly became meaningless again. What exactly am l doing to myself? Why did l allow… Why did l give in to Leo without fighting hard? Without thinking, without consideration? I just allowed him to devour me like that. I brought up my hand, rubbing my lips mindlessly. l fidgeted as it felt puffy and heavy. I went on messaging my butt like the first time when I realised that I wish to be grabbed like that, by a manly strong arms like Leo's. It feels so new, like I'm 16 years old again. Doing the forbidden under my father's roof. Like the moment I knew I longed to be touched and drilled from the inside, the feeling of helplessness.Why should l
Leo."Calm down, will you?" I cuss at Amir, panting uncontrollably. My heart rose up and down, tightening violently and threatening to tear out of my chest.I couldn't stop running! I couldn't even fathom the direction I was heading to! As if my sense of self had dispersed with the wind! As if my entire self had been taken by Mason! As if my life had shifted into an alternate macrocosm and he and I were locked inside! As if my body and soul are ready to risk it all for our mate!It's just a fucking kiss!Fuck fuck!I can't be going crazy over a fucking kiss when I just kissed Roosevelt earlier and got turned on.I can't be going wild over a kiss as if it's my very first kiss but I am. I can't! It's so different! I just kissed my mate! This is what my life has already wanted!Fuck!"Fucking slow down"I hissed, attempting to pull out my clothes gently as my body wanted nothing else but to shift. Amir is not listening to me!I didn't even take in my surroundings. I just went with my i
Mason."Stop throwing things around Kai. Behave, what is wrong with you?" I scold him, trekking downstairs with a heavy towel on my neck to dry my hair.The living room was a total mess and his nanny just stood by to watch him helplessly not knowing how to scold him or if to scold him.The red and blue plush throw- pillows were scattered everywhere on the white tile floor. His different colours of crayons and torn pieces of paper. His books and pencil case were all over the place while he was just running around, jumping and throwing tantrums for fun.Because this is what this is, he is smiling to his ears but a pout is now displayed on his lips."Don't you just stand there Rachel, clean up! What if my father walks in to see his living room like this? What if he comes back with a visitor? Do your job!""I'm so sorry young master, my apologies.""Papa…?""Don't be cute now Kai, you messed up the whole place. What do you think Grandpa will say? He will call you a bad kid.""I'm sorry pap
Leo.I stroll relentlessly to the rooftop after sitting for hours to watch Roosevelt fall asleep.He is such a baby.I wonder what goes on in his head. And I have to say again that there was definitely an untraceable mistake about his genes. He wasn't made to be an Alpha.Probably how I wasn't meant to mate with a wolf.I know he is worried and I would love to make that frown forming deeply on his forehead even when he is asleep to disappear totally. I want to protect him and his Pack too, I mean that is my responsibility as the acting Head Alpha cause I can't proclaim myself to be one as the people proclaim me to be, at least not yet.I place my black hybrid cigarettes on my lips, flickering my lighter to burn a stick. I puff out blue deep clouds taking in the scenery. Watching the whole city from here, cars are tiny. Red light shining even dazzlingly from afar."I thought you quit?" I turn slowly to Zena's voice, trudging towards me in her pyjamas and a pack of can beers in her ri
Mason.The golden morning sun spills into the library, creating spectral dancing patterns on the brown wooden floor. A little ray shading on my face but that didn't deter my attention from the fantasy book I was reading.I blink away the tiredness forming on my eyelids for the umpteenth time, flicking to the next page. Not attempting to allow myself to fall asleep.I can't! Every fucking time I close my eyes I can't help but see a bloody vivid image of that gore sight I saw earlier. It makes my skin crawl. I hate it! It makes me breathless! I want it to disappear from my mind immediately but it's not going.I wandered in here after putting Kai to sleep, thankfully he didn't see that and ran over there because I was shouting.This library has always been my escape place right when I was a child and I would always come down here after dinner after I returned from school. Especially days when my father and mother will be having their usual endless fights, my mother regretting for the nt
Leo."Don't leave, Leo.""I need to make a call, Roose,” I shook my head lightly as he whined, trying to pull me back to the bed with him. "You can continue sleeping all you want."I made my way out.Not like I can fall asleep any longer. I have been unable to since the moment Auden called me. I can't believe he went to Masion's house without my permission.I tried to think back, remembering that fateful night. After kissing Mason, Amir had tried to take control and I couldn't drive and I might have left the car there.It doesn't warrant my Beta to pay my mate a visit.I pace around the house calling Mason to hear from him. I have no idea why Auden was there. I wonder what might have transpired between them.I don't know! I just want to call him and talk to him but he is not responding. I continue pacing around restlessly, mind linking Auden with no responses from him as well.What the heck is going around right now? Auden is short-tempered and I definitely don't buy the idea of h
Mason.“Papa, Ferris Wheel.”Leo laughs, “Do you want to go on it, my big boy?”Kai jumps happily in his arms, “Yes Papa. I want to play.”I let out a sigh and rolled my eyes.I can't believe he said we were going on a family date but he brings me to a fucking amusement park.“Do you want to ride, Mason?”“Ride?” I blush, wondering what he means. Isn't he obviously being suggestive?Of course, I would ride his dick. He doesn't need to ask.“Mason?” He taps on my forehead, “What are you thinking about?”I could see a faint blush on his cheeks as well.“I'm asking if you will go on the Ferris wheel with us?”“No, there is no way I'm going on that.”“Okay then, I will get a ticket for Kai and me.”“Do whatever you want,” I shrugged, annoyed. This is not a date at all. This is for him and Kai to have fun while I just watch from the sidelines.I sat by the bench and enjoyed the busy park. I noticed some children playing tag with their mothers and fathers. Some children were on the swings w
Mason Two Days Later“How are you feeling?” Doctor Raphael asks me, eyeing me suspiciously as if daring me to lie.“I’m alright, just bored and I hate hospitals,” I complained, wincing as he came close to me with a syringe again.“Sit still.”I nod as he gives me an injection on my shoulder, “When does it end?”“Luckily that’s your last dosage for now.”“For now? But I feel alright.”“Yes, you’re recovering very well but I’m not discharging you anytime soon, you will have to deal with it. You still need bed rest and you are still under observation and moreover you can start eating on your own from now on with limited choices of oatmeal and rice, banana and apple but I don't recommend you moving around yet. Just keep your head elevated as much as possible.”“Thank you.”“Hmm, I will take it that the number you gave me to call will provide you a caregiver?”“Yeah, David. He is my bodyguard, he is close like a family.”“I haven’t seen that mysterious handsome guy around, I
Mason“I’ll be waiting outside, Mason,” Leo stands up from his seat as the doctor steps through the door.A bitter laugh escapes me knowing I will never have Leo’s full heart. This guy takes me for a fool, Leo is fucking with my intelligence, he is stepping on my self eesteem. He is making all of my life into a bitter joke.The way I feel, I don’t dare to look at myself in the mirror.“Leo, if you walk out of that door. It’s over between the both of us,” I solemnly said, feeling terrible and deeply terrified.Terrified because I know Leo can choose to walk out of that door and everything we have been through together will mean nothing, it will suddenly just end. I feel terrible, it seems my big body reduced in size to a smaller version of myself at how Leo’s physically shivered at my statement, his eyes are wide, piercing through me.I don’t dare look away, I look back at him, my eyes sharp. It is now or never. I need to get Leo to tell me the truth, there is no way Andrew would appr
Leo.“He will surely be ashamed of how you’re handling things now and I would love to tell him that I was right. You’re not as strong as you look, you can’t handle a Pack like the Crescent Moon. Not to mention how you have neglected the rules. Should I start from the part where you had a human being live among your Pack members?” Marcelo smiles contentedly and turns to the Elders.“It’s like asking us to exist with vampires, can you guys imagine that?”“What happened here was an accident and I have taken care of it, I guarantee you. And whatever decision I make in my life, a happy one or a sad one, it is for the interest of my Pack so I don’t appreciate your accusations, Uncle. Please excuse me,” I bowed to him and walked out. Jason immediately follows behind. “I don’t like him I swear,” Jason says as he catches up to me, “He doesn’t have good intentions about you and I swear I will kill him with my own hands.”“Just stop it Jason, shut up even! Do you know what you caused back ther
Leo.I take a step back as Nolan groans, his eyes turn red and his fangs drags over his lips as he spreads his hands open. Rolls of black smoke-like shadows discharge from his body, forming into human figures with skull faces. However, they immediately disappear. Nolan coughs out blood and almost falls on his back. With my speed I immediately stop him, holding him gently as he sits on the floor. I don’t move away because of curiosity, “What the fuck was that? What on earth are you?”Nolan stares at me and chuckles, his mouth still full of blood, “Trust me you don’t want to know.”“You’re hurt,” I tell him, my hand still wrapping around his shoulders as he leans in towards me, his head resting on my chest.“I will heal, slowly. You said I should do something about the landmines. I did just that,” He says, shutting his eyes.“I can see that but what will they do?”“They will locate the landmines, remove them and destroy them then return back to my body. Easy right?”“Nolan, what are yo
Nolan/Andrew“I don’t believe you,” I shake my head in disbelief. “I’m sorry, Nolan. But when I woke up it was as if you never existed even until date, without all these coming to light I would never have thought you existed. I’m sorry.”“Stop apologizing,” I tell Leo, closing my ears as the voices in my head have become bothersome. They’re loud, telling me not to stop, telling me not to listen to Leo, telling me to kill Leo and then kill myself. They are telling me not to believe Leo because he is mocking me, he is laughing at me because I’m weak, I’m a big fool.He is trying to get me to believe him so he can abandon me again. I know this feeling, I always dream of it every night. Infact for years I have always considered it a nightmare, a moment where Leo apologies and I forgave him. He said he wanted to give me a piggyback ride across the ocean but when we were in the middle of it he dropped me and dispersed, leaving me to drown. I never thought I would see Leo kneel before me.
Leo.His harsh words are beginning to get to me, “You are being very unreasonable, Andrew or should I call you Nolan? Auden said that was your real name.”“Don’t you dare call me that, my name is Andrew now.”“Look,” I run my fingers through my hair frustratingly, “You have problems with me, why are you involving other people? My Pack people are innocent, they are going to be teenagers joining the hunt. You are going to be taking hundreds of lives and for what?”“I don’t care, trust me it doesn’t measure up to the tragic death I want for the whole of your family, Leo. You’re playing pretends of not having memories of me? I hope you keep playing that game until the end when I take Mason’s life in front of you.”My heart skips a beat at the reality of such agony and my brain automatically makes sure it doesn’t come to that.I let out a deep sigh, “You won’t believe me but I don’t have any memory of you. I swear to the Moon goddess that I want to, I want to remember everything about you
Leo.“We’re here to see you, call them off,” Auden mutters to the figure that has his back on us.I have a lot to say about this mansion, it feels creepy to say that every decoration and architectural design feels like my idea. The white and gold couches in the living room, the vintage paintings, the white ceiling with diamonds chandeliers. It was a young dream of mine to own a mini bar, made with the most lavish wooden stools and a long table.Everything in this house feels like a familiar plan of mine. Maybe Auden is not wrong, this Andrew guy might have been someone very close to me.“I can see that,” Andrew doesn’t call off his henchmen who are blocking us from approaching him, nor does he turn around to look at us. He is in the mini bar, taking forever to pour himself a drink. I can’t tell what he is thinking, I can’t even get any energy from him.This mansion feels as ordinary as any normal guy out there could own. Maybe it's all a facade, someone that dares kidnap my mate shou
Leo. “Alpha.”I heard the voice loud and clear but I didn't pay attention. I’m still looking in the direction of the High Priestess’s quarters, wishing her doors will open and she will invite me in and help me with a solution.Why did I ever think I could have it easy in my life? If the High Priestess doesn’t know how to help me with my problems then who will?What is the point of doing all this?I’m left to fend for myself again, my father did the same thing. I was only a teenager when I took on the responsibility of leading a big pack. My age mates were still in high school while I sat on a throne. One I wasn't ready to sit on but I had to because my father decided to get murdered.Now I have a human mate and I don’t know what to do about him! I don’t know what to do!I’m afraid of my story. Alpha Leo’s history won’t end well. It will be one the next generation will frown upon, a leader nobody cares to remember.“Alpha.”I listen to the voice calling me and tears escape my eyes. “
Leo“Your sister doesn’t seem to like me very much,” Ethan beckons, his spirit dejected as he lazily chooses clothes that should fit him. “You shouldn’t worry about that,” I tell him, tired of the maid in front of me whose hands are shaking, “You can’t fix a common tie?” I scolded her.She immediately goes on her knees, “I’m sorry Alpha, forgive me, please.”“Let me fix it for you, Alpha,” Ethan offers. I nod, waving my hand in the air for the maid to leave my presence immediately.“Do you like anything, Omega?” The tailor asks and Ethan shakes his head, concentrating on my tie. I stare at his lips, the taste of them recoiling on my tongue.I looked away and said, “Richard is my favorite tailor, you should give him a chance to design something for you. You won’t regret it.”Ethan smiles brightly at me, “If you say so, Alpha.”Seriously I try not to stare at Ethan too much, he looks so freshened up, a good bath, his long hair has been trimmed and styled yet it still logs on his should
