Willow looked around the room.

It was bigger than Iris's room and it looked okay to her. Everything was set and neat.

The room consists of a bed, side table and a comfy looking wingback chair.

The bathroom was connected to a walk in closet and the bathroom windows overlooked a beautiful view of wherever she was.

At some point, she thought she'll be living in the woods and eating fresh meat but this is completely comfortable and perfect, too perfect!

"Until you receive instructions, don't leave your room. Here's your key" Star said with a straight face and tossed the key at her.

"Thanks" Willow caught it. "And thanks for showing…" The door slammed shut. "... me around"

Willow threw herself in the bed and wondered if everyone's room was nice like hers.

This is a new beginning for her. She quietly vowed to do her best and make herself proud.

"Most especially Jordan"

Willow jumped when she heard the voice again.

"Who are you?" Willow looked around. What is following her? Is she talking to

    Jordan and Star chased after the wolves who took Willow. There was nowhere to escape so they were captured and Jordan didn't waste time sinking his teeth into their throats when they refused to provide important information during the interrogation. "I told you to triple your defense! We cannot have them attacking us anytime they want!" Jordan furiously said to Star. "I'm sorry" "I don't want your apology! I want you to do as I say" He walked to the window and watched some wolves clean up the blood on the training grounds. "Star did triple the defense. I think their strategy is to keep attacking until we are weak" Japh said. "If you are so good at strategies, why don't you put that to use and prevent this from happening?" He took a deep breath. "We have pups here. Nothing can happen to them!" He turned to Japh. "Take the pups to Woodville. They are better off staying there. This place is no longer safe for them. Whoever is attacking us is mainly focused on Willow. Star, nothing s

    Willow walked to Jordan. "I was just taking a stroll with Japh," She said to him. "Jordan" Rowan called with a smile. "Rowan" Jordan replied but turned to Willow. "Aren't you supposed to be training at this time?" "Isn't too early..." "Go" He ordered. "Can you walk me back?" She asked Japh who happily left with her. "I just brought my boys out for a run" Rowan moved closer to Jordan. "How was Jamaica?" Jordan asked. "It was more receptive. And the Storm Riders?" "Good" "Well, gotta run. See you around Jordan" Rowan saluted with two fingers and shifted disappearing into the woods. Willow walked into his study. "What?" He looked up from his desk. "Why did you force me to come back here when I have nothing to do?" She asked. "Nothing to do? You are a fucking guardian wolf! You know what that means? You are to guard the pack not roam around with strangers" He hit his pen on the table. "He isn't a stranger. You and Japh know him" "He is to you" "Okay fine! I want you to

    Iris looked from her friend to Japh. "Werewolf?" Iris frowned. Is this some kinda weird dream? "Yes" "Like in the movies?" Because none of these made any sense and there's no way her friend is a beast. "You just saw everything," Willow sighed. "I did. But I was hoping it was just a dream. You...turned...into...werewolf" Iris panicked. "Look at me" Willow held her arms but Iris pushed her away. "You are a werewolf!" She exclaimed. "So you lied about New Jersey" That wasn't even important. The fact that she is a freaking werewolf should be the main focus here. "Calm down Iris. We are harmless" Japh moved closer to her. Willow's heart melted by the generalization. Japh sure knows how to make her feel good. "You know I won't hurt you" Willow sadly said. How would she even think she's capable of hurting her? Is that how humans see werewolves? "What about these wolves who attacked me earlier?" She looked around. "Trespassers. They invaded our territory and that's why we a

    Willow covered her eyes with the back of her palm when the door unexpectedly opened and volts of pain shot through her eyes.She couldn't tell what day it was because she lost count."Get up," Star commanded.Willow struggled to her feet and her knees shook. She lost her balance a couple of times but finally stood straight.She quietly followed Star back to the pack house.The look on everyone's face was sympathetic while others just didn't care.Few days ago, their looks would have made her cry but she's already out of tears.Well, now she knows what she has gotten herself into."Star?" Willow called."Yes?" She didn't stop walking."Can I just go to my room?" She asked."No," Star simply replied."I don't wanna see Jordan" A tear dropped down her cheek.Great! When she thought she wasn't gonna cry but just his name earned her tears."You don't have an option"Willow hesitantly walked into the all too familiar study.She didn't dare look at him although she could clearly see his silh

    "What do you want to know?" Jordan asked. "I haven't seen him around…" "Isn't that what you wanted?" He turned to leave and she followed him. "Of course not. I never wanted to get him in trouble. It was a mistake which I've served my punishment" She defensively said. "All thanks to you, he is serving his" Jordan added. "I know it's all my fault and you shouldn't have punished him. I wish I hadn't dragged him into this. I feel so terrible" Willow said sadly. "Like you should" Jordan walked away from her. Willow walked to her room quietly thinking Iris was still asleep but almost shouted when she saw Japh chatting with her friend who was still in her pajamas. Her bag dropped to the floor with a thud. "Japh!" Willow screamed. She thought her heart was going to jump out of her chest. "Oh hey Willow!" Japh stood. "Just dropped by," He said with a smile. Willow ran into his arms. "Oh my God! You're here! I thought I'll never see you again" She pouted and Japh laughed. "I arrive

    Iris quickly dialed Japh. "Yes?" Japh picked in two rings. "Can you see Willow?" She panicked. "What do you mean? What happened?" He made a quick scan of the restaurant. "I think something happened. I was talking to her... then… then she suddenly screamed for help and… and her voice was muffled" Iris worriedly explained. "She isn't with Rowan. I'm just outside the restaurant. I think she left for the restroom earlier" Japh walked into the restaurant. "I'll ask Rowan" He ended the call. "Japh! What are you doing here?" Rowan smiled up at him. "Where's Willow?" Japh quickly asked. "Restroom" Rowan pointed and Japh quickly walked in the direction. "Sir, you cannot be in here!" A lady shouted at him. He picked up Willow's phone from the floor and quickly rushed out. "She is missing" Japh said to Rowan who followed him out. "Missing? How? She just went to the restroom" Rowan became worried. "I'm screwed" Japh sighed. "It's not your fault. I'll explain it to Jordan" "You don'

    Jordan continuously tapped his pen aggressively on the table.Click. Click. Click. Click.He threw the pen away."This can't be happening" He muttered."Maybe it's a coincidence" Japh said to him."This can't be a coincidence" He stood up. "How is it even possible? I saw his body!" Jordan breathed."They are definitely his men," Star said with a nod. "But how did he survive?""Unless someone else is responsible for this. Playing with our heads" Jordan sat back."I don't think anyone can just decide to play such a stunt. We are the strongest in this region" Star replied."Unless someone else is taking revenge" Japh suggested."True, but who would?" Star wondered."And why target Willow?" Jordan added."Maybe because…""No! I don't think that's the reason. Whatever vendetta we had, it was only between us" Jordan stood up again. "Why is he attacking her!?" He angrily hit the table."Calm down," Japh told him. "You should have seen yourself back there. You completely froze""For a moment

But nothing.At first, I thought she didn't know what it meant but with time, I knew she didn't feel it.Her wolf desperately called out for me while my wolf frustratingly kept growling..'Mate''Mate'I wondered what I did to the moon goddess to be in such a difficult situation.How can I make her my luna when she doesn't even know she's mine?It makes me angry because as long as she doesn't feel what I felt, she is a free woman.I badly wanted to pin her down and put that forever sign on her neck but I can't forcefully mark her and it kills me.I would have never guessed that she is my mate.Watching her transform into the most beautiful wolf I've ever seen by the river was real torture because her wolf was calling out to me and she had no clue.Japh quietly looked at me. He waited for me to construct a sentence."She's the one,"

    (Willow's POV)"Hello" A deep masculine voice knocked me out of my deep thoughts."S-sorry" I stammered. Thank God it wasn't my boss.I adjusted myself in the seat and looked up at the fine man staring down at me."Are you okay?" He asked in the sweetest voice."Y-yeah" I found myself stammering again. What is wrong with you Willow?"I was just distracted, please, let me have your items" I quickly changed the topic.He gave me a small smile and emptied his shopping basket on the counter and I did my job as the sales lady.The supermarket I work at is the biggest in the suburb so I get good pay."You look pale, are you sure you're okay?" He asked again.Dude, mind your business, pay up and get the fuck out."I'm good" I tried so hard to smile back. "Cash or card?"Regardless of the extra make up I had on to hide my pale skin, he noticed!I do so well to wear baggy clothes most times to hide my skinny body."Card" He gave me his card but it was double.

    "Hey little sis!" Leviathan smiled at a poor miserably looking Willow, who was tied to a huge tree in a strange mist forest.Blood dripped from her nose and mouth to soak her white dirty and crumbled up shirt."H-how.." She looked around and spotted Terra not to far from her."Mum!" She called with all the might in her."Shh" Leviathan smirked."What are you doing with my mother!?" Willow cried.She looked over to Terra who was on her knees, wrapped in chains."I swear to you, you'll regret this!" Willow angrily said."But this isn't my fault!" He deeply laughed. "You have yourself to blame" He walked over to her mother and lifted her chin to look her in the eyes."Let her go!" Willow shouted."She's really pretty" He looked back at Willow, who's eyes were filled with furry."I warned you Willow. I really did. I told you not get involved. I begged you to let me handle it with Jordan" He slowly walked back to her."W-what?" She looked confused as tears dripped down her face."I told yo

    Jordan brought out a tray of pies from the oven and quickly threw the mittens on the counter in his huge kitchen at the colony. He set one in front of Willow on the island in the kitchen. "It's hot" He warned removing the apron he had on. "I like it hot" She gave him a weak smile and picked a fork. He sat opposite her. Willow looked skinny and pale. Her lips are now purplish and her pupils turned blood red. "Why are you looking at me like that?" She let out a dry cough. She was so skinny that her collarbones were very much visible and so were her ribs. "Nothing, you're beautiful" He smiled. She has been living with him in his house for a month now and her recovery is very slow. "Don't flatter me" She chuckled while picking up a mirror. "I look terrible. My mum will kill me" "You look the same to me" He shrugged. "My eyes are red now. I look like a skeleton with a single layer of skin. And I have this annoying urge for blood. Am I still a werewolf?" She sadly asked. "Yes, of c

    Jordan growled in pain as he tried to move back but her grip was too tight. Japh quickly kicked the door open. "Jordan!" He worriedly called. "Get the doctor, Star" He commanded and tried to free Jordan from her grip. A doctor rushed in and immediately sedated her. "You need to get that check immediately" The doctor ordered pointing at Jordan's wrist as more nurses rushed in. "I'm fine" He looked at Willow. She is sleeping again. He hated it. She needs to be awake. Japh dragged him out of the room. "She opened her eyes" He said to Star and Japh as the doctor attended to his wound. "She looked me in the eyes" He smiled. "For ten seconds" "How is that even possible?" Japh paced around. "I don't know, I don't care! All that matters is that she is alive" Jordan replied. "This can be a bad thing. Claudia bit her" Star sighed. "She might be a threat" "No she isn't," Jordan sternly said. "She bit you," Japh reminded. "We don't know how dangerous she is now" "It's a normal reactio

    "She's dead. We lost her" "What!?" Japh exclaimed. "No, that's no right" "What do you mean!?" Star frowned. "You can't be serious" "We couldn't get the venom completely out of her because it has completely invaded her bloodstream. I'm sorry" The doctor walked away. She's dead. We lost her. It kept on echoing in his head. He took a shocking step backwards. "Jordan" He heard Japh's voice but it sounded like he was under water. He could hear his wolf whimpering in agony. Jordan slumped back into his seat. He couldn't believe it. He didn't want to. Just like that, he lost her. Then suddenly, anger boiled in him. All he saw was red. Leviathan took everything from him! He killed Genzzi and now, Willow. Star walked into Willow's ward. She laid on the table in blood as the nurses cleaned her up. She looked limp, pale and dead. "Oh Willow," Star said sadly. "Everyone get out" Jordan suddenly barged in. "Get out!" He growled and walked to her body. Star slowly closed the door

    Claudia quickly entered the cell and held Willow by the throat. "Stay where you are or I'll sink my teeth in her neck and trust me, she won't survive" She threatened. Jordan halted. His eyes fixed on Leviathan filled with anger and hate. He slightly looked at Rowan who was still unconscious on the floor. "We can have a clean transaction here" Leviathan smiled, walking closer to Jordan. "I don't know what happened out there but I'm sure you came for her" He pointed at Willow. "And tell your boys to stay out of this" "Cut the trap Leviathan. I'm not giving you what you are asking for" Jordan huskily said. "Then I guess you wouldn't mind" Leviathan signaled Claudia and she was about to bite Willow but Jordan took a quick forward. "Calm down," Leviathan chuckled. "Hand her over, I'm asking nicely" Jordan growled. "Give me the moon stone, I'm asking nicely" Leviathan replied. "And don't try anything smart" He added when Jordan didn't say anything. "I know, the pack is second to none a

    Jordan opened the windows of his study and heavily sat on his chair.The bags under his eyes and short subtle on his face confirmed how miserable he was."C'mon Willow, give me something, anything" He muttered."Willow, can you hear me? Please hear me" He telepathically said but got no response."I can't connect to her wolf," Storm said to him."This is ridiculous! And absolutely frustrating" He angrily stood up."I can't do anything about it," Storm said again.There was a knock on the door.Japh walked in shortly. He looked worried."Do we have anything new?" Jordan sat back."Um…""What is it? Tell me already" He has always been on an edge since Willow disappeared."You won't like it" Japh said but Jordan angrily stood up."Do I look like I like anything happening here?""This just came in" Japh placed a tiny note on the table."What's this?" He quickly picked it and read.'Bring the moon stone else she is dead, Levi'"I will kill that bastard! I will kill Leviathan!" Jordan angril

    Jordan jumped out of his Mercedes and walked to Willow's door. He tapped on the door multiple times but no response. "Willow?" He called. "Willow? Iris?" He knew something was wrong when she didn't pick his calls. He dialed her again and placed the phone on his ear but he heard her phone ring from the inside. Jordan turned the knob and the door freely swung open. "Willow?" He called again but no response. He walked inside and did a quick check around the house and finally spotted her phone on the floor. Picking up the phone, he immediately spotted blood drops on the floor close to a sofa. He dashed out and drove to the colony. "Jordan?" Star called when she spotted him. "When did you get back?" "Earlier" He walked into his office and Japh soon joined them. "What's wrong?" Japh asked. "Where's Iris?" "Home" Japh replied. "Call her...no fuck that!" He walked out again and headed to Japh's house. Iris was already at the door when he arrived. "What happened?" She asked. "Wh

    Willow put her arms around his neck as he walked out of the cabin with her in his arms. Jordan walked to the back of the cabin and took a short path that led them away from the cabin. The tress and bushes partially covered the cabin as he kept walking until he finally stopped. Willow's jaws dropped when she saw the waterfall. "Wow!" She saw pink lilies and daisies that carpeted the grasses. "Oh my God!" She exclaimed and touched some of the daisies. "This place is beautiful! Daisies, my dad's favorite flowers" "They grow naturally" He said to her. Everywhere was covered with green plants and trees but the lilies and daisies gave the waterfall a cute look. Willow spotted a single bush of white rose and two lounge chairs by the plunge pool. "Wow!" She turned to him. "It's a beautiful view. Now this is how to relax" Willow unbuttoned the shirt and threw it on one of the chairs. A satisfactory smiled settled on her lips when he couldn't take his eyes off her body. "Hopefully th
