Rielle opened her mouth to say something, but suddenly decided not to. If he is Alex as he said, then he is the villain Elijah said she locked away.Elijah wouldn't take the news likely and would probably stop her from going or guard her room more than he has done."He left without saying why he was here. I have no idea what he wants." She instead lied about it, covering up for Alex.Elijah found it difficult to believe what she said but there won't be a reason why she lie to him when she doesn't recognize Alex."He is coming here frequency this time. Do you mind if Rachel stays here with you?" He questioned.She hurriedly shook her head. "I don't mind. I don't mind at all." Even though she wanted to hear what Alex has to say, his present and his appearance were frightening. She wouldn't want to see that again.Elijah left the room and in no time, Rachel came in. "I heard someone is being a scaredy-cat. Anyway, I am here to protect you." she simply said and laid on the bed. "Don't sle
Rielle eyes were widened as she stared back at him. He didn't blink away too but was focused on her.Her heart was throbbing fast in her chest as she wondered why he was there. "My lady......" The voice of the elder pushed back her attention to them.She took her gaze to the elders and raised a brow. "I missed what you said. Was thinking about something important. What did you say again?""Well, we all said we would work with you and we are always at your command. You can call us when you need us."The corners of her lips lifted and she bowed her head, "I do appreciate." Lifting her head up, she took her gaze to the door and found him staring at her.She swallowed hard and looked at Elijah to see if he had seen him, but his gaze was elsewhere. At that moment, she knew she was the only one seeing him.But why during the day? He is a ghost snd should only appear to her during the night as he has always done. What if anyone sees him? He will surely be in a lot of trouble.She bit her li
Rielle sat before the mirror as her makeup was done. The maidens who had attended to her in the morning were there again to get her ready for the night.It was almost time for the werewolves to gather outside to make their prayers. The first moon would be out in few minutes.According to the instruction, she would only stand with the royal families while the werewolves make their prayers.Her head was in daze as she still haven't chosen who to go to. To Elijah in the garden or to Alex in the attic?"We are done ma'am." The voice of the maiden brought her back to reality.She looked at her face in the mirror and almost didn't recognize herself. "I look so different. So different in a good way." She stood up and they helped arranged her dress."Is it time yet?""Not yet ma'am, but your presence is needed at the throne room."Rielle went to the throne room just as they said she should. The royal families were all gathered there, all dressed up for the night except King Median, who wasn't
Alex stood by the attic window, watching the werewolves all being hyped up cause of the first moon.He hated it. He hated when the werewolves gather to make a prayer to the moon. The last time he was present during the first moon was when his mother was still alive.She always force him to go with her claiming that he needed to pay homage to the moon goddess. He never did pray to her once and he was glad he didn't. She wasn't powerful after all. He was more powerful than her and have being able to bring her down to his world and make her be under his command.Someone like that shouldn't be prayed to. He frowned when he realized Rielle haven't showed up even though he told her to after the first howl.She was going to disappoint him and he could sense that, but, he wasn't ready to be disappointed. He made up his mind already, if she doesn't show up, he will go to her wherever she was and he wouldn't leave her sight until she agree to go with him.He walked towards the door and pushed
Alex vanished before she could start a drama on what he said. She rolled her eyes and sat down, "Always a liar."She leaned back on the wall and closed her eyes as she thought more on what he said. Alex always know how to put her on the edge so easily.If she brings back his body, that would mean bringing back the evil villain that was locked up. The lives of the werewolves would be in danger again.But, as he said, he is the only one that knows the way to take her back. What if it's all a lie? A little voice in her head kept asking repeatedly.What if she finds out about it too late? How was he able to mark her when he was locked away? Was he part of the memory she lost?She had many question to ask but no one to answer. Would Elijah give her the answers to her questions? She wondered but shook her head.Elijah would make a big deal out of it and tell her never to meet with Alex again. She sighed deeply and faced the window, loo
Rielle pulled away from the kiss and smiled at him. She fell her head on the pillow and slowly drifted to sleep leaving Elijah to think alone about what happened.Elijah hurriedly stood up and adjusted his cloth. Thankfully she was asleep and he prayed she doesn't remember anything when she wakes up.He felt he cheated on Keisha and his heart was weighed down immediately. Why couldn't he control himself from kissing her?When she asked if she could kiss him, he wanted it. He wanted to have a taste of her succulent lips. He wanted to know what she taste like and that's why he gave in.He has never done such a thing before. Even before Keisha, he was a cold, heartless man, who hated love and women. He just wanted to be alone and rule alone.He thought Keisha would be his last but why was he suddenly doing the things he doesn't want to with Rielle?He sighed deeply and covered her gently with the quilt. He looked at her one more time before he walked out of the room.Debi took a peep fro
Hours ago......It was midnight and Rielle was jerked out of her sleep when she felt a cold finger, moving over her body.She opened her sleepy eyes and caught the familiar pair of misty grey eyes staring back at her.She knew who he was, but his appearance was different. He was more pale and hideous looking then he had always been.Rielle jumped up and lurched back, almost falling to the ground but she was able to get her body controlled."Why are you here?" She questioned, trying her best to avoid screaming out. He stood up, not taking his eyes from her and replied, "You came into the basement. I should be the one asking why you are here but you might be here for the reason which I talked to you about."Rielle looked around and that was when she noticed where she was. She wasn't in her room but in a place that looked like a shrine with a body lying on the old cranky bed at the end of the wall. The body had a blade stuck in his left chest and his appearance looked so much like that o
The royal families along with the elders were all gathered in the throne room just as Rielle predicted.They were on with the current issue of Rielle like always but this time, with more urgency."What should we do now father? We can't lock her up forever in the Atlas." Hermes questioned, obviously worried about her."Father wouldn't harm her. For him to take that decision, he knows what he is doing." Elijah replied. He stood up and faced his father, "What do you want us to do father? We will do anything as long as your plan works." He asked but then Rachel stood up and brought their attentions to her."At this point, I think we should invite the witches over. Won't they have a solution to this?" She suggested."That is going too far my lady. The witches aren't our friends but enemies." one of the elders objected her suggestion immediately."Then what do we do? This concerns the world that has to do with their lives too and not just we werewolves. At this point, we will have to work t
Everything around them seemed to stop as they got caught staring at each other, lost in their gaze.Alex moved his hand from her back and that quickly jerked back her senses to what was going on.She stood up from him in a haste and adjusted her gown. "Sorry about that. I didn't mean to......." she kept shut and bit her lower lips, not knowing how to justify herself. "It was a mistake." she finally said and turned back, back facing him as she was too embarrass to look at him."Shouldn't you go out? I want to sleep.""What did you think happened at the basement when I tried to leave? If I am far from you or out of your sight and reach, it will only end up as danger for the both of us. What happened is just as tip of what would happen if you leave. You made the deal yourself and it has being stamped," he answered tiredly and crossed his legs, shutting his eyes ."What?! You can't possibly stay here with me." she half yelled, trying her best to keep her cool."Well, you made the deal," h
Rielle eyes were shut as she awaited her fate. There was nothing she could do then to accept her fate.After waiting to feel pain, she felt nothing. Well, if he wanted to end her life then he should do it quick but why waste time?She shoot her eyes opened and ready to yell out to him to be quick, but her mouth was left opened and her eyes went round.Alex hand was burning and his face was scrunched up. He was in pain, a lot of pain. Pain he has never felt before in the years he had lived.Rielle stood up still in shocked, wondering what was happening to him while the blade fell from his hand.He looked at her and for the first time, she saw pain. Real pain.He moved back still trying to stop the pain but nothing was happening."Make it stop!" he roared out, causing her to flinch.Serves him right. He tried to kill her anyway.She did nothing but remained on her spot, watching him lose his mind. Seeing she wasn't bulging or trying to help, he walked up to her, ready to force her to do
Rielle pulled away and moved back still with her eyes closed.She prayed silently that what she planned works but deep down, she was scared to open her eyes and still see him in his half dead form.If that happens, then the other option she had is to fall in love with him and he does the same.She inhaled deeply and exhaled afterwards, trying to calm her racing heart even though it did no much good, before she slowly opened her eyes.After taking the big leap of faith, the first sight she caught were the pair of grey misty eyes that got her staring for a while.His eyes were so beautiful that she just wanted to stare all day. His eyelid were like a whole beautiful ethereal universe.How could someone with such beautiful eyes have a heart so darkened and cold?She was quickly jerked out of wondering when he asked, "Not done staring at me?"Finally getting back her senses, she realized that a very good looking, or would she say beautiful man was staring back at her.Her eyes widened at
