Amante POV
I once thought there was nothing, I could not do to get whatever I want. I used to be selfish as hell, minding only myself and disregarding anybody else’s welfare.
However, on my way up to the ground, while staring at Allyssa’s swimming body up ahead, I felt miserably helpless. I could not even dare try to accompany her. I felt cowardly and stayed a safe distance behind.
“She must be agitated for now, but you’ll see in time, her attention and affection will be yours alone. Be patient, will you!”
“That’s what I was doing all this time, right? Giving her as much space as she needed.”
“Sarcasm beats you, Amante, not me.”
“How could you be so passive about being overpowered by a female? You are my spirit wolf. Are you not supposed to be offended that your manliness has been trampled on?”
Amante POV“I heard about Banyan. It was unfortunate, yet we could do nothing about it now. We must focus our attention on bringing together you both, Allyssa and Master Amante, as destined mates.”“What? No!”Allyssa and I screamed simultaneously. I was shocked myself.“You did not have to shout, Amante. You made it sound like you do not want Allyssa back.”, whispered by my spirit wolf.I could only nod mentally at his comment. Everybody has their eyes on me. My mate was darting deadly glares in my direction. I could not blame her, though.“Hmm-that’s not what I meant. I want Allyssa back. I would do anything to get her affection back!”“In your face! You said it already. Keep your honor intact if you have any!”“Allyssa!”Both Madame Maida and Sir John Dave shouted. Thei
Amante POV I was delighted to know banyan was alright. The events that unfold were shocking, though I found it amusing as well. Takif got his one hell of a mate, who never stayed in the dark and let him do whatever he wants. Good for him! He should not have taken someone else’s mate. That was unforgiveable! If only I have spared Allyssa from my loathing towards human beings, we would have been happy together by now. I would not be the jerk of a mate she disgusted right now. “Now that Banyan’s controversial death had been settled, we could push through without delay on the plans to sort out the severed mate bond my daughter and Master Amante.” “Knowing Allyssa, she was stubborn enough to care about the tradition. We must work hard and that means the efforts will fall not only from Master Amante but everybody around Allyssa.” “Do you have an idea on how we could be of help on
Amante POVNothing was easy in courting a girl. It involves everybody around me. Allyssa’s family was a great help. It was great having them as my back-up.There were times I felt everything was going down the drains, that all the efforts of everyone were futile. I had my fill of emotional turbulence for all the days that Allyssa was acting up on everything I do.It was about more than a month when I noticed her softness for a little bit. It was a relief. She still got that stoic expression on her whenever she sees me, but somehow, it felt like my presence does not bother or irritate her the way she did before. She was gradually loosening up, having small talks with her family and the seer.One time, I caught her having a pleasant chit-chat with Vodyanoy. They paused when they noticed my presence. I tried to ask what was that all about, but that ugly fish seemed to be smitten b
Amante POVAllyssa, as expected, did not come to welcome me during our timely arrival back in Lausanne mansion. She stubbornly stayed inside her room. I had been lenient and tried to succumb to all her pleadings for quite some time. It has been a month since I last saw her face.I terribly miss her. It was too intense that I dare stomp my way inside her room. I smashed her door, regardless of the tiny voice of insecurity that waved at my temporary insanity. Nobody dared to stop me, not even Amaltheo.I saw her sitting luxuriously in her golden couch with a book in her hands. I know she was acting like she was focused on her reading when I saw the side of her lips quivered along with the restlessness of her iris.Nothing matters to me anymore. I rushed towards her, pulled her up, and claimed her succulent lips in a wet, hot, and deep kiss. It lasted longer than I intended, because I was hoping I co
Amante POVIt was the happiest moment of my life, my wedding day!Everything seems surreal, except for the happiness I feel jumping hysterically inside my chest. My heart seems to burst out anytime soon because of excitement.I wear a strange wedding attire Sir John Dave had prepared for me. It was luxurious and custom-made. It was an adorned, long-sleeved ceremonial top used on special occasions by Lausanne clan. It was made with thin textiles woven from piña- the most expensive and highly prized material in Leverland. It was because of its manufacturing difficulty, quality, and rarity. It was distinguished by fibers of patchy thickness, which gives the fabric the appearance of having streaks.It has slits on both sides and buttoned straight down the chest. The embroidery placed on a rectangular section on the front of the chest and over the entire shirt was of red dyes and g
Amante POV The days following the wedding, Allyssa and I were filled with happiness. After a week’s vacation on the mainland of Leverland, we travelled to different countries. There I realized how ignorant was I about the world that I had been lusting to put under my paws.The world is vast, massive, and holds dangers I have never experienced before. There are big cities and there are also great ones. Everywhere we go, Aswang are existent.They are not concealed like the werewolves but are seen and live like humans do. Moreover, they are in the influential positions of the society. People in power, in the government, business people, police, lawyers, and doctors. Aswang have the ability to manipulate people around them. Some of whom marry humans to avoid suspicions.It was part of the great plot. Aswang has to wait for the right opportunity to step up and take over the world. It was a uniqu
Amante POVAswang was weak when they were in human form. Only a few have the ability to maintain their superhuman strengths when they were not on their flyers. Allyssa told me those who had eaten human flesh became stronger. And since they were banned from eating without the matriarch’s permission, mostly were weak before the monthly feast. Sure there were Aswang rogues as well. They were those who do not adhere to superiors and wreak havoc to the human community. Most were subdued early, in order to maintain the existence of the clan concealed within the realms of the human world.Allyssa, being the strongest Aswang, was capable of transformation at her whim, just like me as a werewolf. However, the Aswang family who got caught in the airport were part of the weak ones. They have nothing to go against their oppressors.Hunters were savage. The arrest was bloody brutal. Punch, kick, whack. They did
Amante POVI hastily walked my way through the hallways leading to the center of the stadium, where the Aswang family were held captive. There were some guards who tried to call my attention or block my way.“Where are you going? No one is allowed to go in there.”“I have to report directly to the boss.”“Just tell me and I will relay it to him.”“So, you could gain his trust and not mine?”“What the f...how dare you talk to me that way. Who are do you think you are?”“Let me pass through this instant. This report was urgent. If you delay me a second, you’ll regret it with your pathetic life!”“What? Huh-how rude you are too...!”“Cut it out, Bryan. Let him pass through. The
