3RD PERSON
Nelson and Julia stood up abruptly, staring at Victor and Rica with widened eyes. They weren't expecting the trackers to be that fast in finding them, especially since it took them a while to do that the first time.
" Are you sure it was them we found? For all we know, this could be a trap set by then for us to avoid finding them, " Nelson asked, unsure if he should go ahead with what they said or they should double-check.
Julia wanted to agree with what Nelson said, but they had no more time to waste anymore since they had wasted enough the first time. If only that snitch didn't betray them, then they wouldn't have been going through this phase again.
" We would have loved to double-check, Nelson, but there is no more time to do that. We all know how cunning Serena can be, it's a big wonder how Ethan is still alive until now, " Victor told him. Rica glare
3RD PERSONFortunately, Nelson was wrong when they were done double-checking and they all proceeded to start planning their next step of action.This time around, they had to find out if any of the warriors were snitches that could hinder their attack for the second time. For all they knew, Ben might not be the only one working for them and they weren't able to find out about that before Rica snapped his neck. Again, always impatient and rash.It was already morning, so they assembled all the warriors outside after they had made sure that their surroundings were clear of any and every form of enemy or attack." Good morning, warriors, " Victor greeted and they all chanted their replies. " As we all know, we were supposed to attack Serena and Unkar last night, but we were unable to because they ran away before we could get here. That is because we had a snitch amongst
3RD PERSONJulia heaved out a distressed sigh, rubbing her temple. She just wished Maya would come back so that they would be able to talk freely without fear of being shunned or accused of snitching." Rica, you need to understand us, we are trying to help right now. I see no reason why you should accuse us of something so profane. We are your friends and we mean no harm to you, " she tried to explain to her, but knowing Rica, it was highly impossible to do that." Why should I believe you? The both of you have been wasting my time on things that are unnecessary. First, Nelson insisted that we double-check on something that had already been proven and I accepted, only for him to be wrong, despite the fact that he insisted like he was so sure of himself. Now, you're telling me to sit down and think of things that make no sense. Why shouldn't I suspect you both? " She questioned, but Julia beli
SERENA NIGHTSHADEI was tired of running.We have been running since Ben told us that Victor had found out where we were staying and was coming with Maya. The asshole informed us at the dire minute, so we had to run away without preparing for anything.Fortunately, we were able to find an empty cave where we were going to be staying until we found a more secluded space.The most annoying part of everything that had happened tonight was the fact that it was Unkar who suggested that we ran away. I didn't want to do that because we had no plans, but the motherfucker insisted that we ran away." Why did we run? " I asked, walking to him
3RD PERSONSerena ran out of the cave, her heart beating rapidly. She wanted to run away again, just like Unkar suggested the first time, but she kicked against the idea. There was no need for that anymore, it was better she faced it and ended everything once and for all." Serena, it's nice to see you again, " Victor greeted, faking a smile as they all walked up to her." Same here, you look thinner than before. Have you been eating well, this bitch doesn't seem to be feeding you well, " she pointed out and he snorted, shaking his head." And whose fault is that? I don't think Maya should be blamed if I'm not eating well, " he asked and she shrugged. He continued staring blankly at her and she scoffed." You are looking at me like I'm to be blamed for that. What the hell did I do wrong? " She asked again and Victor didn't know if she was trying to act
3RD PERSON' Victor, I don't think this is right. You and Rica should have listened to us when we were telling you earlier, ' Nelson mindlinked Victor, praying silently that they would find a way to get out alive.' Nothing is going to happen, Nelson, you and Julia should put your mind at rest. We have about twenty warriors here and there are only two of them. We definitely have the upper hand here, ' Victor responded, but Nelson couldn't help but feel uneasy.He didn't like the vibe he was getting, he wasn't sure of what was going to happen. So, he decided to do as Victor said, knowing that he wouldn't gain anything from it if he argued with him in that place." You think you can get rid of me and take everything I have? You can't even take the mark on my neck, let alone Ethan or Victor. What the hell is making you so confident that you can do so? " Rica asked and Serena raised h
3RD PERSONJulia was right after all, Serena had plans of her own. If only Rica had listened to her, then things would have been a little bit better for them.Right now, they were surrounded by tens of able-bodied men and it was so evident that they wouldn't be able to fight them off with just twenty men they had on their side.They all gathered around as the traitors walked closer to them. Julia clenched her fist, different ideas about how to survive what was going on, running in her head." Are you still going to tell me to put my mind at rest now? " Nelson asked Victor." Fine, I was wrong, we were both wrong. We should have listened to the both of you and not accuse you of something unnecessary, " he apologized and Nelson nodded." I'm glad you've realized your mistakes. Now, let us think of how we are going to get out of here safely, " he t
3RD PERSONVictor charged at his once favorite person in the world, Uncle Unkar, throwing a punch at him, which he dodged. He never for once thought that he and his family Uncle would attack and fight each other, but neither did it ever cross his mind that the same person he cherished more than his own self, was the one who made him an orphan.Asides that, he put the blame on the Moonfire Pack and constantly reminded him that they were responsible for her death, whereas it was otherwise.Unkar trained him for revenge, made him think that the Moonfire Pack was his enemy and they had to be destroyed. Because of that, he loathed everything and everyone that belonged to that pack. He had killed tens of men that mistakenly entered his territory from that Pack.But that wasn't what pained him the most. The fact that Maya suffered because of him and what his Uncle did to them. He believed it w
3RD PERSONVictor felt the link that connected both him and his uncle, break into two, disappearing like it was never there to begin with.Even though he knew that wasn't the right time to do that, he fell on the ground, weeping silently. He never hoped for that to happen, he never hoped for his uncle to die like that." Victor, I know how you must feel right now, but you have to get up so we can help Rica and save Ethan. There is plenty of time to cry, but this isn't the right time to do that, " Nelson lectured, but Victor ignored him as more tears fell from his eyes.He was a complete orphan now, he had no father, no mother and now, no uncle. He was alone in this world now and people would criticize him for murdering his uncle without knowing the reason why he did that. The thought of that alone was sickening." Victor, there are more men than we thought and
Chapter 229MAYAThe next day, Victor woke me up with his hands in my sleep shorts. I moaned and he made quick work of turning me into a quivering mess.He had gotten very good at this. I smiled as he came up and planted a hard kiss on my smiling lips."Come on, we're going on a date. To make up for the last one that was interrupted," he said, hoisting me up.I smirked, liking that he didn't ask this time way more than I was willing to admit. I jumped into the bathroom and I took a long shower. One longer than I expected because I shaved everywhere and everything.It was when I was picking an outfit I remembered I didn't ask him what type of date it was. So settle on cargo pants and a cute crop top that I tied up in the back. It was secure in case I needed to tackle anyone but still very cute.I went down for breakfast, which was eggs, br
Chapter 228MAYAWe set out early the next day. The trip was chill, mostly because I connected to the car's sound system and I was able to play my own music. I had great song choices.But Bella wasn't relaxed. She kept tapping her feet while looking out the window. I would gently point it out and she would stop after apologizing only to start a few minutes later. I gave up after the fourth time. I'd even caught her almost putting her cute purple nails in her mouth once or twice.I didn't know what she was worried about. She was a nice, pretty girl. She had done her hair up in a ponytail and curled it. She was wearing a black t-shirt with cute denim shirts and black Nikes.I immediately came down to stretch my spine when we arrived. But after a full body stretch I noticed that Bella was still sitting stiffly in the car.And Nelson has
MAYAI went back to my room and laid down staring at the ceiling. I hadn't realized that they thought that way about me. I wasn't mad or sad, it was just something I had to accept. I was roused out of my musings when someone knocked."Who is it?" I yelled."It's me, Victor," he replied.A small smile began to spread on my face. "Come in."He pushed the door open and made a beeline for me. He kissed me and then lay down beside me. "Hey.""Hey. Where have you been?" I enquired."I went for a run. Then a quick dip in the stream. Very nice.""That sounds lovely."He must have heard something in my voice because he sat up, then propped his head on his palm and looked at me. "Are you ok?" Victor asked, cocking his head.I almost told him but what would th
MAYABella walked downstairs rubbing her eyes. She stopped in her tracks when she saw us in the kitchen, surprised to see us for some reason, and then straightened."Good morning," she greeted and walked to the fridge, rooting around in itI looked over to Julia to confirm if I was the only one who thought she was almost cold. Julia's brow was furrowed, the expression on her face mirroring what I thought mine would be.Lily cleared her throat. "Excuse me Alpha," she whispered and walked out of the kitchen without looking back. She also thought Bella was being weird."Is something the matter?" I asked."Nope," Bella answered quickly.Now that was definitely a little curt. I wasn't in the mood to walk around the issue so I came out and stated my mind."I think there's something going on and I'm not going to
MAYAI woke up very early the next morning, feeling so sleepy even though I knew that it would be so difficult for me to go back to sleep. I quickly freshened up and went downstairs, going to the kitchen to take a bottle of water." Good morning, Lily, " I greeted her, going to the fridge to grab the bottled water." Good morning, Alpha. You woke up early today, you couldn't sleep? " She asked." I just felt so excited this morning that I couldn't help but wake up early. And what's with the formalities? Do you really have to call me that when we go way back with each other? " I asked and she chuckled." I just felt it would be comfortable for me to call you that since you're my boss, " she answered." Whatever makes you comfortable. How do you like your work? Is it too stressful? Is anyone being rude to you? " I asked but she shook her head." Surprisingly, no. They are all respectful and nice, and I don't regret coming here with you. I have a good and comfortable place to sleep, I ea
CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY FOUR (224)MAYAAfter I was done talking with Ken and he had agreed to do exactly as I had told him to, I left his room, heading to Julia's.I knew she would be asleep already, but I still felt the need to talk to her that night and not the next day." Maya, what are you doing here? " She asked as she came to open the door, rubbing her sleepy eyes. I entered the room without saying anything, sitting on the sofa." I came to talk to you, " I answered, raising my head to look at her." Tonight? Can't you wait till tomorrow morning? It's pretty late and everyone is fast asleep, so let's just talk tomorrow morning, " she suggested, but I shook my head, not willing to listen to her." I need to talk to you tonight, I might not have the chance to do that tomorrow morning. You should sit down and listen to me, I won't take much of your time, " I promised and she heaved out a sigh before sitting on the bed." Why didn't you tell me? " I asked and she raised a br
MAYAI froze in my seat upon hearing what Ken said. I wasn't expecting that kind of confession from him, especially since I came to his room with the intention of trying to urge him to propose to Julia so that they can get married." That was unexpected, " I blurted out as I didn't know what to say. He opened his eyes slowly, staring at me with a confused expression." You're not angry? " He asked and I shrugged, still speechless." I don't just know how to respond to what you said since I wasn't expecting that kind of confession from you. But you must have a reason for wanting to break up with her, so I can't get angry at you just like that, " I told him." You didn't even ask me why I said that, " he pointed out and I snorted." Of course, I would ask you as I believe that I deserve to know. I was just trying to gather my thoughts in one piece to avoid it shattering again, " I responded and took a deep breath, closing my eyes. Upon opening it back, I clasped my hands together, raisi
MAYAEveryone went silent after hearing my announcement. Happiness filled Carissa's eyes, but Julia was cringing in disgust, staring at me." Hey, why would you even think of pairing Bella with Nelson? They are obviously incompatible, " she pointed out and I felt the need to correct her on that." What makes you think they're incompatible? Have they met each other? Why would you say something like that and try to jinx it? " I scolded." I'm not jinxing anything, Maya, I'm just stating the fact. Bella isn't cool headed, neither is he, " she argued." But they haven't met with each other yet. No one can predict what their feelings would become. Besides, what's wrong with Nelson? He's a cool guy, he is competent and has a lot of potential, " I retorted." But…… " she tried to argue again, but I was quick to stop her." Just because you don't like Nelson doesn't mean he is a bad person, Julia, " I told her." I'm not saying he is a bad person, I was just trying to voice out my opinion on
MAYAWithout wasting any more time, Victor and I began to pack our bags, making preparations to travel back to the Moonfire Pack." Why do you guys have to leave so early? I was glad that I wouldn't be lonely in this big house anymore and you're leaving again? " Nelson whined, pouting and I engulfed him in a hug." That's why I have been urging you to find a woman you want to settle down with. Stop having flings and one night stands anymore, you should get married to avoid being lonely during times like this anymore, " I advised and he instantly pulled away from me." No, thank you, I'm not ready to commit myself to a lady yet, " he admitted and I nodded, handing my bags over to him." Then, die in loneliness, " I spat out before walking out of the house.Victor helped us out our things in the back of the car before entering the dr
