“57 Dorumn spies were exposed from our men and half of them were killed during the battle. The others were taken into prison. Apparently, they had been working at different ranks and status in our kingdom and were secretly sending information about our kingdom.” After his report, Terry placed the files on Ruan’s desk. Still, Ruan didn’t reply. Their alpha had been so silent after the battle ended. Terry looked at him, although he could only see the back of his head because he was facing the wall as he sits on his chair.Troy was the next to put his report paper on the desk, stacking it above Terry’s.“We lost three of our men and several were currently injured. Gavin and I already attended to the family of the deceased and made sure that they were compensated enough.”After his long narrative, Ruan just waved his hand as a smoke was seen floating in the air above him. The air in the room was already heavy with cigarette smoke.How long does he intend to smoke endlessly?Th
Kaliyah hadn’t dreamed of Elle’s passing. However, every time she closes her eyes, that exact scene how she jumped on that cliff flashed in in her mind. This sent her chills and fear at every moment that she was unable to sleep. She felt a gentle tap on her back, reminding her of Gray’s presence in the room. “I’m okay, Gray,” she told him, a hint for him to stop trying to comfort her anymore. Accompanying her since yesterday was enough for her. that way, she felt less scared. “You’re not cheating with my other nephew, are you?” Hearing that familiar feminine voice, Kaliyah turned around and found Samantha sitting at the side of her bed. She got up; eyes filled with shock at what she just said. “T-that won’t ever happen!” she yelped, glancing at Gray who was at the terrace. He was sitting on the rails, looking at them. And this made her embarrassed and anxious. As if she said nothing controversial, Samantha just shrugged her shoulders and
When Kaliyah fainted, Gray suddenly popped out of nowhere, catching her within his arms. Even Terry, Gavin and Troy didn’t have that fast reaction to go and prevent her fall. As they were all stunned too. How the hell did he does that in just a split of second? Had he always been there watching them from a far? And only appear when Kaliyah fainted? Seeing that scene, Ruan’s gaze squinted. And fck. He’s jealous! His murderous eyes met with Gray. Without an ounce of guilt, he threw the lifeless body of his enemy that he just killed and he went straight to him. He grabbed Kaliyah from him. Although he hated to stain Kaliyah with dirty blood of lowly people, he loathed it more to let her be stolen from him by other men. He’d rather cover her with stinky blood too, than to watch her in other men’s embrace. “Hands off my woman, Gray.” His voice was cold and threatening as he warned Gray when he refused to let Kaliyah go. Feeling a hand
Kaliyah went out of the carriage, looking up at the dilapidated building. From its broken walls where wild vines crawl, everyone would assume that no one lives here. “Are you going in alone again?” She turned behind her where the voice was coming from. However, Gray popped beside her. He, too, was staring at the building scrutinizingly. “Hmm,” she nodded. “I have some personal things to ask the priest.” Like always, Gray didn’t inquire more. He just let her do whatever she wanted, but still making sure he’s beside her. Thinking of this, Kaliyah cannot help but feel grateful. “Gray.” The man glanced at her; his gray eyes were warmer than Fenris’ eyes. She continued. “Thank you for accompanying me. Always. I know you will always be beside me whenever I needed you.” “I prefer actions rather than words, Kaliyah. If you wanted to show your gratitude, do it with actions instead. But, I’d rather you do not. You can’t bear it’s consequences.
The carriage shook lightly along the road, but it wasn’t enough to wake up the sleeping lady inside. Gray kept constantly checking on Kaliyah through the window that he purposely left open. He was somewhat afraid that he won’t be able to ensure her safety. Drifted into the lull of sleep, Kaliyah found her self in a trap of dream. There, she saw enemies from the Dorumn Kingdom planning an attack. And Ruan. He didn’t know anything about it. Just like her past dream during the wedding, that dream left her with a terrible feeling. And she dreaded that it will again come true. “Ruan!” Gray pulled the horses reign, stopping as he appeared by the carriage door after hearing Kaliyah’s shriek. “What is it?” he asked, clearly worried of her. Kaliyah turned to him, her hands trembling as she grabbed his collar to pull him closer. Even her lips shook as she spoke. “He’s in danger. The kingdom is in danger, Gray. Quick. Take me to the east border. We need t
Ruan went into the front line, whereas Kaliyah stayed at the back fleet. That was the condition he set if he allowed her to join the battle. That’s also suitable for her fighting mode since she used her bow and arrow to fight with their enemies. Swiftly, she loaded her bow and with great accuracy, she hit her target. Again. Then again. And again. The battle continued, and she was slowly getting anxious since she cannot spot Ruan anymore. She told him to stay at her sight, so she could be assured. And although she was aware that that’s nearly impossible, she still hoped Ruan would assure her just by that. She aimed for another wolf, who fell into the ground, and scanned through the battle ground. It was so hard to find something in there, especially that the forest is so dense and it was also getting darker and darker. The night fell upon them, and so thus her heart sinking. “Where are you, Ruan? Answer me. please answer me.” She tried to
Kaliyah was already dripping with sweat, as the fire in the furnace burned so fiercely. However, Ruan was still shaking so badly. Even though the windows and doors were sealed properly, not letting any cold air to seep in. Yet, it wasn’t enough. She went beside him, holding his hand. And she was surprised by how cold he was. “How can he still be this cold?” she wondered nervously, scared of how freezing he was. His skin was so pale, even his lips that were usually hot and reddish that used to kiss her lost its life. Looking at how bad he looked right now, she debated in her mind whether to call the doctor. But she cannot just leave him like this. No. she must bring the doctor right now. Getting up, she let go of his hands and turned to head to the door already. When suddenly, a strong force pulled her toward the bed. Ruan just f*ckin’ hauled her into him by tugging her skirt! And now, her clothes were torn apart! How long will he keep destr
This wasn’t the first time that Kaliyah went inside a meeting hall. Thinking back, that was when she was still in Elton. And it seemed so distant as she thought of how she had changed ever since. Before, she was still a timid and useless Luna that can’t shift in her were form. Fenris’s Luna. Yet now, she was Ruan Dark’s Luna, a beautiful and courageous once in a century silver-furred wolf. And now, she was about to take on a great responsibility as the Luna of this kingdom. The environment inside the meeting hall was heavy and silent, as Kaliyah walked inside. What caught her attention first the moment she entered was the lay-out of it, wherein the seats were formed in a crescent moon shaped and facing it across, were two majestic chairs. Without a doubt, they belonged to the Luna Queen and Alpha King. Her footsteps on the marble echoed, and all attention befall upon her. Some were amazed. Some were hesitant. Some were careful because of the aura she’s emi
