Quite some time had passed after that, and it was six in the evening now.
Rain and others were in their room, talking and chatting.
Odin kept his eyes staring at the window.
It was he who comments, “The rain is not stopping. It’s been past noon since we came here. And now, it’s over the evening. At this rate we will have to go out in the heavy rain. What else can we do here?”.
Rain, who was pouring tea along with Bella turns to Odin, hearing his comment.
“ Did I hear anything about leaving?” August remarks, opening the door, walking inside.
“Yes,” Odin got up from the chair he was sitting on and walked to where Rain and Bella were.
“We had been disturbing them for quite a while. We can’t disturb them any longer. We must leave.”
“H-hey,” Bell
And all the lights in the whole house were gone in a minute. Lightning strikes the sky and the noise fills the entire house.Rain becomes afraid of the dark and hugs the figure in front of her tightly out of fear, shouting, “No.”“Who shouted?” Bella shouted, she was arriving down the stairs, but then the light went out throughout the whole house.“It’s your friend,” Odin shouted loud enough for Bella to hear clearly.“A-are you two fine? Why did the candles go out together? Do you know?” Bella yelled back while roaming her hands through all the things she could find in the dark.“We are fine, the window was open and that’s why the wind came in. I’ll close the window.”Odin needed to walk up to the window, but Rain had held him down so tightly that he couldn’t move from the spot.He stared down at her, the flashing light from the window was enough to m
“Uh……” Bella was speechless seeing Odin.Among the dead silence between the two pairs, Rain decided to muster up her courage and asked, “ Is everything over?”.“Not exactly…..it went even worse now,” Odin replied.“What?”.“Nothing, August, how are you doing? You are all wet?”.August nodded.“Yes, I was fixing the roof after all. But what are you doing? Like that….”.He was staring at the back of Rain who was hugging him.Odin stared down at Rain’s body and his cheeks flustered red out of embarrassment. He removed his hands from her right away, but Rain wasn’t leaving him alone.“Hey,” he whispered in her ears.“ Don’t leave my side.” She held onto him even tighter.“Everyone’s watching. Get off.”“No.”&ldquo
August walked up to the storeroom, then Bella chose clothes for him to wear, and carried them in her hands while he carried her up to her room.“Open the door,” he instructed.Bella turns the knob the other way and opens the door, and August walked inside.It was dark as well.“ Will we have to stay in this dark?” August grunted.“There were some candles I guess. But how can we light them up?” Bella replied.“I’ll find them.”“Change first.”August nodded and carried her towards the bed, and placed her gently.“Sit here till I change,” August took away the clothes from her hands.As August took off his top, he threw it down onto the floor right away with a thumping sound.It was then only Bella realized that he was changing in front of her.“H-hey, you didn’t mention you were going to change in fro
“You called for us?” Grace asked, walking inside.Inside the room, Simon sat with his back facing the group of girls who have arrived there.“Yes, he did,” replied Sherry, who sat across the corner of the bed, in their bedroom.Grace and his team bowed down in front of Sherry, crouching down on their knees.“Leave the formalities out,” said Simon getting up from his seat, walking towards them.He brought out a chair, and sat on it, crossing his arms in front of his chest he folded his legs on top of another and stared at the pack of women who were sitting at his feet.Sherry came up from behind him, and wrapped her arms around his neck, wearing a smirk on her face.“Let’s hear the information you have, shall we?” Sherry asked, turning to the women.“Lord,” Leah stepped forward, still crouching down.“ We have information about the Alpha
Bella and August stood watching Odin kiss Rain. Both their eyes stuck to the sight in front of them.August couldn’t believe what he saw, Bella couldn’t believe it as well. But instead of just standing she grabbed him by the hand and dragged him to where they stood.August went along with her and they stood by the sidelines and watched.Odin was caressing her cheeks with his fingers instead of kissing.August sighs in ease to see that.“Thank god, he’s not doing what I thought he was doing.”“Rain, what are you two doing?” asked Bella casually.Their attention was diverted by her voice.Odin pulled away in response to realize they were standing too much intimately.When they pulled away, Bella and August walked up to them.“ Rain, what are you two doing together in the kitchen?” August asked.“M-making chocolate, hot chocolate with strawberries on
Meanwhile, when Odin kept staring at Rain intensely, she could feel his gaze on him and opened her eyes without warning.Only to find Odin staring at her with dreamy eyes, she understood by his smell. She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.“What are you doing?” she asked.He was lost in his thoughts so he didn’t reply.She sat up on the bed and waved her hand in front of him.But he wasn’t back to senses now.She found him weird, so she grabbed him by the hand, and gave him a jerk asking, “ What are you seeing?”.This time her words broke his attention.“Huh..what?”.He was surprised to see her up sitting in front of him.“Are you back to your senses now?”.“Uh…I’m sorry. A-are you up already?” he asked, standing up.“Hm…how long had you been up?”.“Just no
While kissing August noticed, that Bella was awake, and staring at him with pathetic eyes.He broke the kiss and got up from her body right away.She stayed down the way she was sleeping.“I…I….I didn’t….” he couldn’t gather his words in his mouth.Bella also sat up and stared at August who took advantage of her sleeping state and kissed her without her consent.“ What were you doing while I was sleeping? I mean what were you trying to back then?” Bella asked in a straight voice.August felt a chill running down his back with the question being asked to him.His throat felt very much dry and he couldn’t find anything to answer to her at the moment.“I…I didn’t….”.“What was I trying to do back then? Even though I keep telling Lord that he shouldn’t mingle with Rain so much as she’s an Omega. But
“What’s up with the soft sensation that I feel? I feel so calm than I ever felt before. How should I describe this feeling? The sense of protectiveness surrounding me…is making me feel so comfy.”“ I don’t want to wake up from this dream, ever.”The sensation of cold hands caressing his cheek made him open his eyes by force.He saw Rain wearing a painful expression on her face.It seemed as if she’s going to break anytime soon, and someone needs to save her and support her.He reached out his hand to her face and cupped it.Rain was surprised by his touch.“W-what are you doing……” she asked.“You seem to be having a hard time. What’s wrong? Tell me.”“Ah…it’s nothing. You are up already. Get up, I’ll make breakfast for you,” she replied, trying to hide the matter.“Don’t lie to me
Rain hugged onto her knees even more tightly.“He’s not going just because of me. I’m stopping him from enjoying.”“Even though he was looking forward to the harvesting festival dance. I’m ruining everything for him.”“I can’t do this.”“He doesn’t deserve this at all.”“I need to do something.”Odin waited outside the door. Somewhere in his heart, he was hoping that Rain would come out and join him. But he was unable to say those things from his mouth.Odin hits his back against the door as the door slightly opens.“Get away a little,” Rain said softly.Odin got up on his feet and stood in front of the door.The rain opens the door and came out, looking sideways.He became surprised.“You opened the door?”.She nodded, “Let’s go to the harvesting festival. I want to go together with you.” Odin’s eyes widened.“F-for real?”.She nodded. “I’m sorry for acting mean towards you all.”“I didn’t mean to do that.”“Can you forgive me?” she asked bowing her head.He examined her from top to
“ What’s wrong?” Sherry asked, coming forward. “she seems familiar to me. That’s why I stopped to see her. Do you recognize her?” Simon asked. “Recognize? How’s this possible?”. Sherry stepped forward and came to see the face of Bella who was standing with an astonished face. She couldn’t understand what was going on in there. “ You know me?” Bella asked. “ Are you….with the Solomon family?” asked Simon. He stared at her with a questioned look. "Ah...yes...you are talking about Rain. Yes, I'm her friend. I work under you lord." Bella bowed down holding onto the hem of her skirt. He watched her in awe. Sherry also stared at Bella. Then asked, "didn't your friend come here today?". "Are you alone?". "Ah .yes. she'll be coming later." Simon wanted to ask something more, but then he stopped himself from asking anything Any further and went on. After that everyone returned home. Bella returned home with a smiling face. She looked all around the house to find Rain who di
And, like that, the long night came to an end, and the sun rose up signaling it was morning. Although the villagers were much unhappy about the fact that people were starting to get missing from the village, they still made the arrangements for the festival. The whole village was dressed in pretty colors and arrangements. Ever since Rain’s parents were alive, this festival had been the source of joy for her and her family. During the evening, Rain was recalling about the days which she had spent along with her family during the festive times. Now that they are not here, she’s missing them more than ever. Their absence is making her feel sadder than ever. “Rain, which dress should I wear? What would you like to wear?” Bella asked, showing her the couple of dresses that she had on her hands. Rain was absent-minded. So she wasn’t able to hear what she was telling her. “Rain?” Bella called again. “Why aren’t you listening to me?” her loud voice breaks into her attention. “Huh.
“Ah…because of the rose-“ before she was able to complete her sentence he sucked onto the finger which was hurt. As the blood reached his tongue he had a familiar running down his body. As if he had tasted this before. Then he recalled that time when he woke up to his senses, and she was kissing him which she still hadn’t answered why. She noticed the change in his behavior. “W-what are you doing? Don’t do this,” she was squirming under the feeling he left on her hands. He pulled away when she was starting to feel embarrassed. “ You hadn’t said anything about the reason why you had kissed me when I wasn’t awake after the wound.” His comment left her speechless. She couldn’t utter anything. “I..I…”. Silence followed in between them. His gaze was enough to make her feel nervous. If she could tell him why she did that back, no one would have felt much relieved than her most probably. But there was no way out for her to tell him that. Tell him the fact that she’s blessed by the p
Meanwhile, Rain was cutting up eggplants while thinking about something in her mind. She was in the kitchen.The images of the premonition came back to haunt her again. She was starting to feel cold the moment she recalled them.Bella came from behind her and saw her cutting slowly, without a care in the world.She peeked over her shoulder only to spot that Rain was about to cut her finger off.That’s why she came from behind her, and grabbed hold of her hand, stopping her in the tracks."What are you doing girl? You were about to cut your hand by accident. Where is your attention?" Bella shouted."Uh... haven't noticed. Was I about to cut my fingers? Sorry.""What's the point in apologizing to me? You are the one who was in danger." Bella scolded her."Am sorry I had been careless.''"You go and do something else. I will take care of everything here." Bella sai
“Stella, what are you doing here?” Leah comments, seeing the girl who was beside Odin.She had blond hair and black eyes, with a petite figure.“I….” she lowered her head at her feet.“She had been hiding outside the door, listening to our words. Mind asking her what she was doing listening to us?” Odin asked.August was observing her actions from head to toe.Leah stepped forward and walked up to the side of Stella named girl.“What were you doing outside the door Stella? Aren’t you supposed to be with Sarah at the moment?" Leah's words made Stella look down at her feet.“I….I came to ask about the security within the village. Lady Sarah told me to know whether we will place even more guards at night or not,” she stuttered while replying. Her mouth felt dry, and her heart was beating faster than ever from the nervousness.She was sweating and panti
In a while, they reached the house of Alpha Simon. Guards have surrounded the entire house.The atmosphere was tense. They stood near the gate.“Won’t we go inside?” August asked.“Yes, let’s go.”The moment they walked inside the gate, some people spotted them and surrounded them.“Your identity?” asked one of them.“Alpha Odin and his Beta August are here, inform this to Simon he’ll understand.”In a while they accompanied them inside the house.Grace spotted them when she came downstairs.“Look who we have here, isn’t this The kind hearted Alpha Odin and his Beta?” she compliments in a teasing tone.They were standing downstairs so, hearing her comment their attention turns to her.August hadn’t met Grace so he was confused.She came down, and stood in front of them wearing a pretty smile on her
Meanwhile, Rain and Odin came back to the breakfast table while carrying the basket of eggplants in his hands.Seeing them August and Bella stopped talking.August’s eyes traveled to the expression on Rain’s face. It was sadder than before.Bella spotted the eggplants first and stood up right away.“Eggplants in this season? Am I dreaming?”.“Who gave them to us?”.Rain pushed aside Odin and stepped forward replying, “Aurelia, she came over to give some news.”“What information?” August asked out of curiosity, relaxing back on his chair.Odin went past them to the kitchen, to put the basket down.“Come and have a seat with us,” Bella made Rain sit beside hers.Rain replied,” She came to tell that the missing cases again started. And last night ten people went missing from our pack. I don’t understand why’s this
August and Bella stared at each other and choked in their food hearing Odin’s question.“W-why are you asking that question?” stuttered August, wiping away the sauce off his face.Bella stared at her food, the called, “Fill my glass, I need water.”“Coming,” replied Rain from the kitchen.She brought the glass of water from the kitchen and placed it by the side of the table.“Here.”“August? What’s wrong? Why are you so silent ever since you woke up?” Odin asked again.“It’s not a question to ask. I don’t feel like talking just all. When will we leave by the way?”.
