The Creature Inside Me 25
(Willow's POV) I was determined to show him, if not tell him exactly how I felt about him. If you need anything from someone like Jordan, you don't ask but take it. And that's exactly what I was doing. What I felt for him was overwhelming but exciting. I didn't know how or when it happened but now I know and I've fully accepted. He needed to know what I feel for him and I'm very sure he has an idea. I didn't know where I got the audacity to make the move but I did and I don't regret it at all. His lips melted in mine and for a second, I was afraid because I waited for him to push me away but instead, he grabbed my waist and pulled me closer. The heat radiating from him only encouraged me to go on. All I wanted was to feel his naked body on mine. He took his lips away from mine and placed it on my burning neck trailing quick hickeys along my neck, shoulders and jaw. Claiming my lips again, he lifted me into his arms and slowly placed me on the grass. I found his buttons and

(Willow's POV)Something that isn't yours can never be yours.That is one of the laws of life.Even if you manage to get it, you'll lose it in the end.I already understood that Jordan isn't mine and can never be mine.And no matter how hard I tried to accept that fact, I just couldn't.I have deeply fallen for him.I fell so hard that I became a cripple.It was hopeless!A lone tear dropped down my left cheek staining the cold car window.Rowan glanced at me once in a while but I was glad he respected my wish to be left alone.He occasionally squeezed my arm to give me the reassurance I needed.

Japh walked into a boutique and looked around. He was determined to make Iris talk to him. It was clear that she was avoiding him. "How can I help you sir?" A lady walked up to him. "Iris. Is she around?" He asked. "Yes. She is in the store room. Her shift just ended" The lady smiled. "Thank you so much" He smiled back and headed in the direction of the store room. "Sir? You can't go in there" The lady followed him. "I won't take long. Please let me in" He pleaded. She looked around and leaned in towards him. "Just don't take long. My boss will soon be here" Japh gave her a grateful smile and walked away. He slowly pushed the door open and peeped. Iris was putting some things in her bag. He quietly walked to her and hugged her from behind which made her jump out of fright. "Hey, it's just me sweetie" He kissed her neck. "I wanted to surprise you" He kissed her shoulder. "You could have called or dropped by the house" She picked her purse but he didn't let her go. "So

Some things are worth fighting for and sometimes, you need to put that extra effort in order to get what you want.Vulnerability.Sometimes, you just need to be prone to rejection. Open up yourself with no defenses even when you have a lot to lose.It represents strength.But also weakness. To those who have built defenses because they are too afraid to get hurt. The 'tough' ones.But then, what is the use of these defenses when *"You love me but that's not enough for me" He said. "No Iris, I won't even lie to you. It's not enough for me" Japh briefly looked at the sky. "I want to wake up and have you by my side. Corny, but that's just how I feel. I don't want to feel like I'm gonna lose you at anytime" He brought out the velvet ring box.Iris gasped and her hand slowly covered her mouth as more tears dropped."I want to call you mine with no doubt. I want to pick you up from work and listen to everything you have to say about your day. I want you to hug me when I claim to be busy

Two years later. "C'mon guys! Just one more shot!" Iris raised a shot glass. The bar was hardly full but the noise from their table was loud enough to make the bar lively. "And to think some of us have children" Willow poured more shots for her friends. "I know you're not talking about me" Iris gulped down her shot and asked for more. "You are drinking too much Iris" Rowan took the bottle away from her. "Do you think having kids is a piece of cake? Try it once" She stole Willow's shot. "What will they think when you come back home drunk?" Willow asked. "They won't think anything because they won't see anything. Japh promised to look after them" She hiccupped."But he decided to join us" "Star volunteered to babysit them" Japh defensively said. "That's because you begged her to watch your kids," Willow said. "She wanted to come out with us today" "She loves children besides, she didn't complain" Japh shrugged. "Can you get me sex in the city?" Iris whispered into her husband

There were no decorations or fireplace. It looked bland and boring. The outside looked more conspicuous. Willow tried not to focus on the neatly made bed. The coffee sheets matched with the whole cabin and it looked tempting. "So you live here?" She finally turned to him. He gave her a short nod and picked up the grocery bags. "Can I help?" She dared to ask because he didn't look angry or probably because he didn't throw her out immediately. "Can you cook?" He opened one of the doors that led to the small kitchen. "Wow!" She peeped. "No. I can't cook" She replied. "You can't do anything" "I can wash the vegetables, chop them or even wash the plate…" He pushed her out and slammed the door. "You should leave," He said. "But…" "But nothing" He cut her short. "And don't come back here again" She quietly looked at him. "What?" He asked. "Is that all you got? Won't you call me names and warn me to stay away from you? I'm waiting for the hurtful words" She said to him. "Argu

The angelic chirping of birds harmonized with the sound of the waterfall in a beautiful melody. Willow rolled to her back and stretched out her hand to feel the other side of the bed but it was empty and cold. The duvet hardly covered her breasts and her hair was a mess. Her fingers touched something leafy and when she grabbed it, it felt like a flower. Her biggest fear came true when she realized that he wasn't with her. Willow woke up with a start but Jordan was looking down at her. His eyes were calm and his lips slightly bent upwards. He was shirtless and his wet hair covered his forehead probably because he just showered. She quickly flew into his arms. "You're here" She tightly hugged him. "Mhm" He caressed her bare back and placed a light kiss on her shoulder. "Please don't leave me" She wrapped her hands around his neck. His heartbeat was steady and his body was warm. She slowly drew away from him. "Please tell me I'm not dreaming" Jordan claimed her lips. "How's

"Leviathan" Genzzi slowly turned around. He was tall and buffed. He had black hair and eyes with full lips. An army of men stood behind him. "How did you…" "After years of failure, I was finally able to get in" He smirked. "What do you want?" Genzzi asked. "What are you doing in Woodville?" "We both know the answer to that Genzzi" He scoffed and walked closer. "Listen, we can go and talk about it. Let's go somewhere else and I'll…" "Are you alone?" Leviathan cut him short and briefly sniffed the air. "Yes. I'm alone" Genzzi replied. "We should get out from here and I'll give you whatever you want" "Just like the father that you are, you are also a pathetic liar" Leviathan smiled as he watch two of his men drag Jordan out of the cabin. "Why do you always lie to me?" "Leviathan…" "Shut up!" He shouted. "Let go of me!" Jordan struggled with the men but they were too strong for him. "Don't worry, Joe. You will be fine" Genzzi assured him. "He is really a feisty one" Leviathan

(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. I looked up at him in confusion

"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
