2021-12-05 00:55:40Things were finally going well, I could not believe I was saying it.
I enjoyed the rays of sun shining over the garden, making the flowers glow brightly.
Ruhee made her way in my direction with a wide smile on her lips.
"You look happy," I closed my eyes one more time, putting my head on the wall behind me.
"I said no to Amber today," she sat next to me with the grin not leaving her lips, "she asked me to go with her to help her in getting ready during the event and the dinner they will have later."
"I am proud of you, Ruhee," I took a sip of the mango juice.
She took a sip of her orange juice and sat more comfortably on the wooden bench.
I stole a glance at her when she was not looking. The girl sitting next to me was slightly more confident than the girl I met when I first came here. Her long light brown hair was in a messy bun, there was a light in her round curious eyes.
I ran a hand over the pocket of my jeans

The dark side of the moon Twice
Twice.... someone had tried to murder me twice in one month.I was missing my old boring life.The life where I had to worry about completing assignments on time, not about getting murdered by a werewolf.Even the sound of wind chime could not distract me from the trail of thoughts running inside my head.Damien had to leave in the evening and I would be alone here. The thought was enough to make me sweat.With a sigh, I sat down next to my window staring at the clear sky. Everything felt too dull even in the brightness.The guards standing in the garden were sharing no words with the mouth but many stolen glances were passing between them and they were enough to pass the message.Two knocks with the pause of a few seconds made me look away from the garden. Ruhee was standing near the door with a small smile on her face. The smile was one of the formal ones, that could fool anyone."What's the upda

I stood in my place mentally preparing myself as I stared at my opportunity.Damien sent the guard who stood on the second exit with the girl and he was so busy with his 'interrogation' that it might have slipped his mind or he was confident that I would never try to leave. Either way, it worked in my favor.I waited until the girl with raven hair went inside the house taking two steps at once while bumping here and there on her way.Taking a deep breath in, I checked for any signs of guards around before I ran outside to the car in which she was putting all the clothes and boxes.Everything was filled with dresses and at the back, some huge boxes were stacked upon each other. I didn't think twice and hid under the backseat when I saw her marching towards the car.It was the big moment, either I would be stuck here forever or I might get back my life.I held my breath as the girl put on her seatbelt and increased the volume of the fain

A woman with streaks of grey in her dark hair and a light of worry reflecting in her hazel eyes was looking at me. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. "Are you okay dear? You look a little pale," she asked looking around. "I am fine," I smiled at her. "Can I help you?" she asked again. I looked at the woman who was slightly taller than me, wearing a cardigan and had an apron tied around her waist with the hair in a tight bun. "I was just..." "Take a seat, why don't I bring you some coffee first?" Before I could say anything else she was already behind a brown door leaving me alone in the empty cafe. I sat down on the table that was nearest to me, thinking if it was a mistake or not. I was still debating if I should leave or wait when the woman came back with a cup in her hands. She put the cup gently on the table and sat down in front of me. I cleared my throat and start

"This is Cora, your new roommate," the woman answered her granddaughter."Woah woah...hold on. Let's rewind the whole thing. Roommate? I never said I wanted a roommate?""There is no need to create the scene, Emily."I kept my head towards the wall hoping she would storm out of the cafe after saying no to a roommate."Why can't she live in the pac....""Cora is a 'girl' who just moved here," the woman emphasized on 'girl' and I knew exactly why, "be a good girl and let her stay with you until she finds a place. She will also start working here from tomorrow."I heard the girl groan followed by a large sound of something hitting the table which I assumed was either her hand or head."Fine," came her muffled sound."Great why don't you both chat here and I will be back in ten minutes," the woman removed her apron and left it on the counter near the entrance, "or you know what, Emily why don't you show her the apartmen

"Emily...wait, please listen to me," I was about to take a step in her direction, trying to stop the furious girl in front of me."No...you listen to me. You liar. My grandma was just telling me about poor Cora and how alone she must be here in a new place....away from her family...but noo. Poor Cora is nothing but a liar.""Okay, I know this looks bad but just give me a chance to explain myself," I said in a slow calm voice taking a small step in her direction."Bad? Firstly, because of you, I was interrogated by some stupid guards, I could forget that but you played with my grandma's feelings. She was trying to help you, how can you lie to her?" she asked pointing her index finger in my direction to stop me from taking another step."It is true, I am new here and away from my family. It is true, I had my whole life planned for me but all my dreams were shattered by a werewolf. I am not here by my choice, I was in the cafe to get a job for a few days and

Two weeks passed and I spent every day looking over my shoulder.It was a normal Tuesday with the frosty wind welcoming the arrival of winters. I never liked the winters much but I could not ignore the combination of warm hot chocolate and a good book in bed.I enjoyed my breakfast in peace as Emily slept in her room without any care of the world.I could not believe how much things changed for me in just a few days. I was working, I had a roommate who was my friend. It was not the life I planned for myself but the new life was not bad either. For the first time, I was in control of my life, I was not waiting for someone to make decisions for me. I was not doing anything to make someone happy.I cleaned the dishes and decided to head out when I saw the time.I was still not interacting much with anyone and it was the only way of not attracting much attention. I shared some hello and good morning with the neighbors on my way

I rolled over my bed again trying to find another position hoping for the sleep to engulf me.After tossing and turning for another thirty minutes nothing happened. The faint light of the moon entering from the window was illuminating every corner of the room.I shut my eyes again but this time a voice entered my ears.It was Emily.Her room led to the balcony but my window was open due to which her whispers were clear to me. It was almost 3 am, Emily had a habit of going for a walk in her wolf form at night whenever she had trouble sleeping.Who was she talking to?"She is sleeping, like a normal human."I sat up on the bed but did not say anything. Was she talking about me?"No-no-no I got this, you don't have to do anything. Just let me handle this," she said impatiently.She was talking to someone on phone.There was silence for a minute."Yes, I am sure she is a human," sh

We sat in an awkward silence finding the correct words to initiate the conversation.Her green eyes held the same calculative look which it has when we first met.The silence was overwhelming and it was killing me to find the answers to all the questions floating in my head."Who is Jack?""He is the beta's son like I told you before," she immediately answered."How do you both know each other?""We are from the same pack," she replied.It was far away from the answers which I needed. I had to ask her about last night."Who were you talking to last night" I finally asked.Her eyes widened slightly in surprise. She was not expecting me to hear any of the conversations she had. She sat up a little straight and cleared her throat."What are you talking about?"I suppressed the urge to roll my eyes, "You know what I am talking about, and don't say I was dreaming or any other absurd

The dark side of the moon I want her
Two weeks had passed. The icy walls of the palace had witnessed the gruesome sight of the murder of the King, Queen of the werewolf kingdom by Lilith and so many other wolves who were murdered by her to achieve the goal. I could not say everything went back to normal because the truth was far away from it. Damien was with me but he was not the same after losing his family. He did not only lose his father that day but his mother too, even though Lilith did not feel the same Damien always loved her like his real mother. Lilith was still in the cells, she would not say anything and would barely eat the food, there was regret in her eyes but it was not for her actions it was for her son. Luca was a whole other story, he was alive only because the dagger did not pierce through his heart but he was unconscious and not healing like he normally should. He survived thanks to the Alpha of the crescent pack, he had some contact with the witches who were ki
The dark side of the moon I can't lose you
"Someone help, GUARDS," I screamed from the top of my lungs but the defeating silence was the only response I got as I ran towards the doorway of the left wing.I stopped running when I caught the horrific sight of guards on the floor with blood pooling around their bodies. There were no other guards in the entire hallway. I had a feeling there were no guards in the palace, if there were, they should have been here by now.I had to reach the main door and warn the guards outside but the time was not on my side, Lilith must be almost healed by now."There she is," a large man screamed running in my way with a wicked smile on his lips.I started running but it was of no use as the man shifted into a sandy wolf midway. I was thrown to the ground, there was nothing I could use to defend myself. Just when I thought my end was near a vicious growl fell into my ears and the sandy wolf turned towards the sound but it was too late for him. A large blac
The dark side of the moon A tragic end of the royal family
Pairs of eyes kept looking at me as I passed the familiar hallway but none of them uttered a word. It was evident in their eyes they wanted to say something but the fear was making them stay silent.I bit the inside of my cheeks and continued walking, barely keeping my excitement to see Damien. I did not know how he would react but it was time for him to know everything....everything about the person who killed his mother. The person who was living with them and waiting to stab them.Two guards were standing at the entrance of the left-wing but other than them no one was there. Damien did not like people entering his personal space and the guards earlier were for my protection when he was not in the palace.I opened the door of the bedroom where the scent of Damien welcomed me. I smiled looking at the flames burning in the fireplace and the chair in front of it.Damien was in the room."Damien, I know this must be a surprise
The dark side of the moon Trouble was around
I loosened my hold on the dagger when the man fell on the ground and Amber was standing behind him with a smirk.She took a large step and extended her hand in my direction. I looked at her hand skeptically and dragged my eyes towards the man on the ground. There were no signs of injury on his body but he was not moving at all."Is he..""Yep," she did not let me complete the sentence."But how..""Burrowed a little gift from your sister," she answered taking her hand away when I stood up without her help."What did you do? If anything happened to my sister..." I pointed my index finger at her.She rolled her eyes, "Relax, I have no interest in getting my nails dirty with the hunter's blood.""What are you doing here?" I kept an eye on my surroundings not trusting Amber. If she was here, it meant trouble was around as well."In case you failed to notice, I saved your life," she ended the sen
The dark side of the moon Who were they?
"So, you have lived there for months," Faith turned her index finger towards Ruhee, "and you, for almost your whole life." "Well, not exactly my whole life but go on." "And yet, none of you know any damn numbers to contact them?" Faith squinted her eyes as she looked between both of us. We were sitting in the airport and Faith was keeping her word to accompany us to the palace. "I didn't have a phone and I have a goldfish memory when it comes to numbers," I defended myself. "I never had anyone to call," Ruhee lifted her right shoulder casually, "I was living in the palace or the mansion, and whenever they needed me to do some work I was there." Ruhee said every word without any emotion. Faith glanced at me and I shook my head slightly, giving her a hint to not continue the conversation. I did not want Faith to ask something that might hurt Ruhee's feelings. "What are you doing?" I tried to peek into Faith's ph

"You little...""Father, enough...I am ashamed to call you my father. How could you murder a child?" mom yelled furiously. It was the first time I saw her raising her voice at anyone."No. It is all her doing," he pointed his finger at me, "she is on their side, she is working for the filthy creatures. It is their plan. they want to destroy us."Grandpa was trying to make everyone believe his words, his voice held urgency as he stared at everyone begging with his eyes to believe in him."It is not about sides. I just don't want innocents to die....innocents like Adam. The fight between the hunters and werewolves was over ten years ago and you are just trying to start it again. They are not bad people, they have suffered the loss too," but my words meant nothing to him. There was only hatred in his eyes as he looked at me.I inhaled a long breath, "I have lived with them, if they were bad I would be dead a long time ago but those people did everythi
The dark side of the moon Game's over
I knocked on the door and waited for the response while holding my breath."Eleanor, what a lovely surprise," grandpa said in his gruff voice with no sign of emotions on his face.I gave him a tight smile."Are you here to apologize for your barbaric behavior?"I bit my tongue to stop myself from giving him a remark that would not be good for my plan."I am sorry for my behavior, grandpa."I tried to make the words believable but from his squinted eyes I had a feeling I was not much successful."Very well, if you don't mind I am in a hurry."He closed the door and started taking quick steps.I didn't stop him and continued following him, "I know I have made you very upset in the last few days but I want to make up for that.""You are wrong my child, it is not the last few days it is the last few years."I rolled my eyes but kept walking knowing very well where he wa

"What happened there?""They kept on asking me questions about your soul mate," Ruhee said in her soothing voice, "and I kept on changing the topic.""They didn't hurt you, right?" I asked with worry. I did not want her to suffer more because of my family.Ruhee shook her head with a smile, "Your mother was there the entire time and she did not let them take any extreme measures. In fact, she was not happy with their decision at all."I bit the inside of my cheeks."Get some sleep."I stood up and left the room silently. Ruhee probably did not get the chance to sleep and needed some rest.I did not get much far before Faith stopped me, "El...""Save it," I continued walking."That is not a very nice way to behave with your sister," a gruff voice made me stop.I turned towards grandpa with a frown, "I was not trying to be nice."The corner of his already down lips turned f
The dark side of the moon Do not come back here
The sharp ray of the sun entered through the window, hitting me directly on the face. I opened my eyes slowly and looked around the room in a daze.With a yawn, I stretched my arms getting out of the bed.I rubbed my eyes as I tried to get rid of the sleep after staring at the blank purple wall of my room. But as soon as I remembered about last night my eyes opened wide forgetting everything about sleep.Faith...ice cream."Faith!!" I yelled opening the door of my room not caring if anyone was sleeping or doing some work.I banged my fists on the door of her bedroom, "FAITH OPEN THE DOOR!!"I kept slamming my fist on the door until I heard the sound of footsteps."What is your problem at 7 in the morning?" Faith asked with her eyes closed halfway."What did you do?" I ignored her question."What?""Oh, stop that. I know you added something into my ice cream yesterday when I was
