(Luther)“I’VE HEARD about your wedding. Congratulations, Mr. Sinclair. You got yourself a very gorgeous wife. Alexandra, wasn’t it? Without her werewolf gene, she would have been perfect. It’s such a shame.”I glanced at the police chief whose words had stopped me from getting inside the police station. He was among my father’s puppets. But tonight, it doesn’t really matter.I only went out for a while to talk to my assistant when I saw this guy at the entrance. He was smirking as he leaned against the table with a cigarette in his mouth. I know him. He was famous for being an asshole. I even heard that he made quite a ruckus when he learned that he was not invited to my wedding.Talking to my parents had already sucked the energy out of me. And now I have to deal with this scumbag, too? I almost feel tempted to believe that I was being punished.“This is why people like you suck, you know. You don’t realize that my wife is perfect just the way she is. Her being a wolf is actually on
“WELCOME back, son.”I swallowed after hearing Suzanna’s affectionate greeting. No matter how many times I tell her to not wait for me each time I’d drop by, she never listens. It was past eleven in the midnight. The parade had caused a stir. I had to attend the organization’s emergency meeting before I got to drive home.“I’m glad you will finally get to live here. I know it had been a tough day, but knowing you, I’m sure you did well. Congratulations on your wedding, Luther,” she said with a smile.I’ve heard the same thing over and over again today. But Suzanna was the only one sincere about it.If she was my real parent, maybe I wouldn’t be the man I am today. I wouldn’t have to spend my whole life treating my parents’ house like a warzone. I can’t complain, though. Being a Sinclair had its benefits, too. This marriage, for example.When the cold wind blew, I fixed Suzanna’s shawl. “Thanks for waiting for me. It’s cold. Get inside.”“I heard the news from Mark. I know you’ve been
IT WAS still dark when I came out of the house and ran. The sun was now up when I calmed down after running for hours. I just had to leave. Otherwise, I was afraid that I might mess up the plan by suddenly killing Luther and everyone else in this house. It had been a long time since I stopped having that nightmare about Serena. Being surrounded by the humans must have brought it back. Knowing that Anthony Gutierrez was back in the country could be among the factors, too. Anthony had spent the past three years traveling to different parts of the world. By this time, he must have spent all the money he got from selling my sister to the auction house. It was not easy finding out his identity because Serena only wrote his nickname in her diary. There were no photos of them either that would help the pack trace him sooner. We had only succeeded in getting an information about him a year ago when the wolves had gained enough power and connection. The Senator who was the secret owner of th
THE minute we arrived in our room; Luther carefully laid me down on the bed. But I pretended to lose grip of the towel that’s why the fabric slid down my stomach which exposed my breasts.I watched his hungry eyes blazed as he stared at my body which made me feel ticklish. It was like he was fucking me with those eyes. Meat was every wolf’s kryptonite and from the second I saw him; I’ve always wondered what his was. How much was his tolerance when it came to temptation? So far, I’ve never met a man who had successfully resisted the allure of a female wolf before.Just like Beatrix, the wolves were scattered even in the cities now. Most, if not all, of the establishments all over the country had aconites in their halls and garden. They were designed so splendidly that no one would think they were used as protection.But weeks after Serena’s death, we had found a way to lessen the impact of the aconites on the wolves. The Alphas and Lunas even showed immunity to it. And two years later,
(Beatrix)“IS DUNCAN aware that you will be meeting me before him, Mr. Kendricks? His wife is still in prison as we speak. If he finds out about this, your in-laws will not like it.”I almost rolled my eyes had I not been able to stop myself at the last minute and get caught by the humans’ hawk-like eyes, especially by the bodyguards who were eyeing me with both lust and caution. Mason’s voice and expression were not in sync with each other. He looked sad mentioning Governor Duncan, but his voice sounded too cheerful about his half-brother’s misfortune.The thing about humans was that they had insatiable greed. And when it came to it, there is no family, relatives, or friends. Anyone could be enemies in an instant. These sons of bitches had no shred of loyalty.The Alpha cleared his throat. “Wolves, unlike your ancestors, have word of honor, Mr. Vice President. You were the one who had set a meeting with us first that’s why naturally, we would prioritize this. Besides, we know how muc
(Luther)IF THE MOON goddess was real, then it must be her. Hell, I almost forgot how to breathe after seeing her standing beside the bonfire while gazing at the moon. The wind was playing with her hair and with the hem of her white, long nightgown. The cameras would love her. Every second, every moment, in whatever form, it was like she was shooting a movie.That’s why I feel restless because like a movie, I know that this too, this blissful feeling of coming home to this precious sight, would come to an end.What Alexandra and I had was never an ordinary marriage. We were never a normal husband and wife. Even our honeymoon phase was far from normal. And maybe as long as we stay with each other, we could never have a normal day. Even now, on our first day, I had to leave her side and meet her pack to arrange my mother’s release.The Alpha and Luna did let her out of prison, but the condition was for her to be placed under house arrest for one whole year to repent and although Ma look
“LUTHER?”I blinked to fight back the tears. I thought I’d forgotten how to be human, that I didn’t know how to cry anymore. The last time I shed tears was back in the woods. But seeing Alexandra again seemed to have brought back these human feelings inside me.I thought she died that day. When I came back the following day in the woods and all I saw were traces of blood on the ground, for the first time, I understood what grief meant. I thought Pa took care of the body just like how he took care of the bodies of his enemies. I felt so guilty especially when I overheard Pa and Uncle Mason talking in the library that night and heard that they were the ones who staged the kidnapping.It was Uncle’s ‘bright’ idea and Pa went along with it to gain the public sympathy. Our mothers didn’t know about it though. They even killed the hired thugs to make sure that what they did will not come back to haunt them one day.After that, they began putting their so-called attention in helping more kid
“THEN PROVE it to me. I want Anthony Gutierrez. I heard you have him. I won’t ask why. But will you be willing to give him to me? I must believe in you first before my pack can believe you. Whether the wolves can trust you or not, I’ll be the judge of that,” I said without breaking the eye contact with Luther. Whenever he was making this expression, his mate in me wanted to believe him. This man lies all the time. Lying just runs in their genes. But if he lies to me tonight, I will not go easy on him again the next time. While waiting for Luther’s response, I don’t know why I was fidgety, why there was a part of me wishing that he would be honest this one time. It could be true that he was being shackled, too. And his answer tonight would prove whether he truly wanted to be free or he wanted to remain chained up. Anthony was among Luther’s friends in high school. I learned it through the conversations Luther had with him in his inbox. Their fathers were business partners. Anthony’s
LUTHER’S fingers grazed my cheek as he stared at my face. He swallowed when he glanced at my lips. Seconds later and he pulled my head and waist as he claimed my mouth. He nibbled on my lower lip, urging me to open my mouth and when I did, he hungrily pushed his tongue in until our tongues met.When he finally let my mouth go, he took a rough breath and rubbed his erection against my stomach. “You look so lovely again today that I just wanna devour you right here, right now, Mrs. Sinclair.”Although completely aroused, I held it in and just smiled. “You can’t. Dad texted me an hour ago and said he’s preparing a victory party for me. We need to go back to San Antonio. How did you even escape from Iris?”“No worries. I told them that I was promised a date and I would claim that promise today. They seemed to understand. Dad told us to take our time, he’ll look after our princess. She even happily let me leave by myself. She had one thing to say, though. She said it’s her Christmas wish.”
(Valerian)“THE ROYAL family from the wolf empire is here to give their greetings and gifts to Your Majesty,” Matteo, the host of the event, announced. The guards opened the castle doors and from there, Alexandra, Luther, and their daughter appeared and walked towards the center of the hall, towards me.After Alexandra’s wolf reappeared, her hair was back to being crimson and so was her daughter’s. Luther’s hair, however, was still ink-black. It was the only thing he retained from his human genes. But whenever these three were on the edge of their emotions just like what happened in San Antonio before, their hair would all turn crimson along with their eyes.Together, these three could move mountains.Iris was at their middle. I stared at the Luna Queen, she was as stunning as before, but whenever I see her lately, her beauty just transcends everyone around her in another level. I guessed it was the radiance in her eyes. She was happy and it showed. She was shining more than ever.See
‘THE CRAZIEST thing in the world happened, but I cannot tell you about it yet, little sis. Telling you will spoil whatever scheme your moon goddess is cooking up. So, don’t get too disappointed if I will shut up for now. But be assured that Val is okay. He was just shocked and confused. Let him be. This is his first time being in this state. It’s actually fun to watch him rattled,’ Nick assured me. He winked. ‘He will figure it out and he will get over it, trust your big bro.’ ‘When?’ I asked. Nick laughed. ‘In fifteen to twenty years, I guess?’ Nick seemed to be having the best time of his life teasing Valerian. Even now, he was grinning beside Val who just ignored him. He turned to my direction and tenderly smiled. “I’m proud of you,” he mouthed. “I know you will be great.” “Thank you so much,” I replied. Halfway through the red carpet, I glanced at Giovanni who quietly walked with me. Just like my husband, he had come a long way, too. All of us had matured. He had become one
(Alexandra)MY POSITION was the closest to Beatrix. I could have stopped her from killing herself. But when she shook her head and looked at me with weariness in her eyes as if she was begging me not to take another step, I couldn’t move my feet.This was her wish: to be one with the man she loved. As heartbreaking as it was, I had to respect it.“Beatrix!” her parents yelled and sobbed.She confessed it to me while I was still pregnant. Kenji was the second mate given to her by the moon goddess. It was something she didn’t have the courage to tell even to her own parents knowing that they would not be happy about it anyway. It was rare for wolves to be given another mate after the original one dies. In fact, it was so rare that there were no records of it anywhere.Trix could be the first to experience such phenomenon and there could be a reason behind it, reason which Kenji and Trix had an eternity to discover.My knees staggered, but Luther was quick to grab me by the waist. Both o
(Beatrix)I HAD a secret that I could never admit to anyone. A month after the tragedy that killed my best friend, I was able to recover. At that time, I was about to go back to my duty in the pack but on my supposed to be last night at the facility, Kenji paid me a visit.His voice was gentle as he talked to me. He spoke like an old friend of mine. His eyes were affectionate as he called my name. He didn’t talk anything about vampires and wolves. Kenji only talked about the time we dated. And I pretended to be crazy so I could keep seeing him, so I could keep being with him in my own way.And maybe I had really gone crazy. Who would have imagined that I could stay in that facility for seven years all for him? For a chance to hear his voice? But for me, that facility had become our secret place, our hideout.‘I’m the world’s richest man. I have everything that money could buy, Trix, but I would swap them all for a day to be with you again, to feel your kisses one more time, your hugs,
THE WIND grew more violent as each second passed. The birds that were resting on the branches of the trees all squealed and flew away. We were yet to see the hybrids, but we knew they were here. We could feel it as tension sizzled in the air. We could even smell it. Their blood scent was everywhere which meant that we were now surrounded by them.And when Kenji had finally made his appearance, the steel gates flew towards our direction. But we were quick to evade them. There were hundreds of hybrids and they were all wearing red cloaks. I saw the faces of the men who made my mother suffer. And when they sneered at me as if they were remembering the same thing, my blood boiled and my body shook with anger.“The reports are true after all. My best friend and my mentor are indeed in one place and are working together. What a reunion,” Kenji said as he smiled, but it didn’t reach his eyes. In fact, he had a dead look in his eyes as if he was uncertain about tonight’s outcome as well. When
I STOOD up and ran my fingers through my scalp. “When you told me to escape with you back then, I wanted to do just that. It was not just you. I wanted so badly to forget, too, Trix! I would do anything to forget even for a day. I want to escape, too! I want to be with you, too! But I can’t forget their cries. It haunts me all the fucking time.”I kneeled before Trix and when I could no longer stop myself, I held her hands and buried my face in them, relishing the familiar warmth that I could not feel in any other place no matter how hard I searched.Only Beatrix could do this to me. If it was not her, it would not work. She was my sanctuary. The voices were still there, I could still hear them. It seemed like I had been cursed to hear them for as long as I lived. Or maybe my mind was just playing with me, maybe I had gone crazy. My mind was a wretched place to be. And so was my heart.But with Beatrix this close to me, the voices were not as loud as before. It gave me the chance to l
(Kenneth)“HAVE MERCY, your majesty! I am still your father-“The old lying son of a bitch didn’t get to finish his sentence when I swung my sword onto his neck. His head rolled onto the floor along with the rest of the Mages who swore their loyalty to me. It sucks how Valerian was right again. The clan who abandoned me before because I was not as strong as them only came to find me after they heard how I rose to the throne. If I didn’t discover what they were secretly planning to do behind my back, they would have overthrown me and would have tossed me on the streets, poor and powerless.Their plan backfired, though. I killed them before they could even do that to me. Using a spell, I stole all of their magic.They were only after my throne, my position, and my army. To hell with them all! I don’t need them! They could rot in hell and after all this, I will see them there. In hell will be where our next family reunion will take place.After I killed the man who claimed to be my biolo
(Alexandra)“GET up, Alexandra. Shift and run with me.”When I heard Dad’s voice, I wiped my tears away and rose. His eyes were full of compassion as if he could relate to what I was feeling. He gave me a soft smile.“Shall we go?”I nodded. When he shifted, I followed him and shifted as well. Together, we ran in the woods as quickly as we could and howled. It was the farewell ritual that I didn’t get to do for Mom before and Dad was allowing me to finally do it for her now.It was seven years late, but I hope Mom could still hear it… including my apology and gratitude. While we were running, I was taken aback by the huge number of wolves who ran behind us including Luther. They howled along with us until we reached the lake once again.When we all transformed, the women took me someplace else and I just let them. They prepared a white silk dress for me to wear. They assisted me as I wore it. When I
