She had just taken another step when her nose came in contact with a long leg. Alice felt her head spin, her nose began bleeding and she lost consciousness. A great way to begin a new day, sigh!
Meanwhile the owner of the long leg felt something collide with his leg. He stared at the unconscious figure of the petite lady. How could she be so stupid! He sniffed the air and he realized she was also a werewolf but there was something peculiar about her scent.
Meanwhile Mrs. Theresa was going in search of Alice. By this time, Alice ought to be doing the dishes but she was no where to be found. Mrs. Theresa turned to look left and right, seeing that there was no one around, she deeply sniffed the air. She caught an unfamiliar scent in the process and her daughter's scent which was mixed with blood. Blood!
Immediately, Mrs. Theresa ran to where she suspected the scents were coming from.
Arriving at the shelf of books, she saw a tall and handsome stranger standing beside her sprawled daughter. She had expected that there'd be a pool of blood on the floor but all she saw was just a tiny drop on the floor and more droplets spilling out of her daughter's nose which made her relieved. Remembering the unfamiliar scent she had perceived, she realized that this handsome stranger was also a werewolf but why would he not call for help after seeing someone bleeding! This made her furious that she felt like venting all her bottled up anger on this stranger. She glared at the man not cowering despite the cold aura he had. Mrs. Theresa wasn't one to hide any displeasure she felt towards someone. She glared at the man for the nth time before squatting beside her daughter. Thoug, she wasn't a doctor but after confirming that her daughter was still breathing, she immediately picked her up. To humans, this was a huge feat but to werewolves, it was normal for them to lift someone as heavy as them.
Despite her old age to humans, Mrs. Theresa carried her daughter to the small spare room they had in the shop.
Meanwhile the cold Justin who had just been glared at didn't get angry and this was a surprised to him. He waved it off and then walked out of the shop while bringing out his phone from his pants pockets. While doing this, a flier fell on the floor but he was long gone to notice this. Anyone who first enter the shop would be the first to notice the flier.
In the small room of the shop....
Mrs. Theresa didn't need to be worried about her daughter cause she knew that in no time she'd wake up. All she did was to clean up the blood on her daughter's face and also stopped the bleeding.
She sat on the small wooden chair closed to the tattered bed her daughter laid on. She stared at her daughter's face and couldn't help but to remember her late husband. They both had the same features. A drop of tear slipped from her eyes but she was too lost in thought to notice this.
"Mum! Mum! I have good news!" There was a loud cry of a teenager as he barged into the room looking as agile as ever.
"Not again!" Mother Theresa sighed resignedly.
"Mum! Mum! I have good news!" There was a loud cry of a teenager as he barged into the room looking as agile as ever."Not again!" Mother Theresa sighed resignedly. She just had to take care of one trouble and now another had walked in."What is it Jacob?" The middle aged woman sighed tiredly. The teenage boy paused in his footsteps as he stared at his unconscious sister. After some minutes, he went back to his cheerful self looking unbothered. He was used to seeing his sister unconscious most of the time. She was always doing f**lish things that could bring danger to her and despite knowing this she didn't stop. He rolled his eyes dramatically and took his eyes off her figure then turned to look at his tired mother. Just as he opened his mouth to talk, an object came flying towards him. Like he had expected this, Jacob reflexively dodged it. Ever since he had rolled his eyes at his sister, he knew she was awake and she was up to no good. He was proven right when he caught the sight
Jacob puffed his cheek in anger but soon turned into a smirk as soon as he thought of something. How dare his sister tease him! "Well I could say the same for you" Jacob said with a small smile gracing his face. As soon as Alice heard this, she had the urge to beat Jacob to a pulp. D*mned brother! She growled at him and Jacob wasn't left behind cause a small babyish growl left his mouth. This made Alice laugh loudly and Jacob didn't need to be told the cause of her laughter. She was obviously making fun of his immaturity cause he was still a teenager who hasn't transform into his wolf form. The only thing he could resort to was to huff and puff loudly while glaring at her.Mrs. Theresa smiled at her children and suddenly felt energetic more than before."Jacob, hand over the flier you're holding" Mrs Theresa said as she stared at Jacob. Hearing his mother's words, Jacob suddenly remembered his reason for his happy smile. He immediately handed over the flier to his mother while secre
Just as Alice took her seat, there was a commotion. Alice paid no heed to this as she was more anxious about the interview.She was brought out of her thoughts when a pair of shiny shoes stood in her line of sight. She looked up at the person but before she could see his face clearly, her wolf growled, "MATE".Alice immediately rose to her feet then she was able to see the face of the person standing before her. Alice paid no heed to his facial expression and kept smiling at him but the smile was brushed off her face the moment she saw the look of disgust and anger the man was giving her.All her fantasies about her mate having lots of fun her crumpled down before it started. Just as she was on the brink of tears, she thought of another ray of hope which was her mate wasn't a werewolf so he didn't realize that she was his mate. Alice inhaled his scent deeply and the little ray of hope she had also crumbled into pieces. Her mate wasn't a human but a werewolf but why is he staring at he
"Throw her out" a voice rang out loudly. As soon as Alice heard this, her feet grew weak and she almost fell to the floor. She instinctively held unto Justin's arm but who knew that as soon as she did this she was immediately flung away which made her end up looking miserable on the floor. Alice fought the tears she was about to shed and bit her lip. Justin threw the guards who were walking slowly a cold look. Sigh, the burly looking but timid guys immediately hastened their footsteps. They wasted no time in holding each of Alice's arms while taking her out of the company. Alice had no time to protest as she was treated like a bag of rice and dragged out of the company. She bowed her head in shame and embarrassment as they dragged her out. Her cheeks were stained with tears that had magically found its way out. Alice was left lying on the floor by the guards who threw her looks of pity. Why would they look at her that way and then still leave her on the floor lying miserably? She did

And no! She wasn't into middle aged men! Hmph! "Oh, it's nothing, no need to be bothered about what I said", Alice smiled sheepishly. "I sure will", the man said and as soon as he did, he pulled Alice by her hand and began dragging her to the company. Alice was in shock and allowed the man to drag her. She woke up from her trance when she began feeling cold. Just as she took notice of her surrounding, she met a pair of frosty eyes and she froze in her steps. The man who had been dragging her realized that she had suddenly refused to walk further. He quietly shook his head and he came face to face with Justin. Not caring about the audience surrounding them, he glared at Justin and ordered; "I want to see you in my office right now! And...you all can go. The post of the secretary have been filled", the last part of his sentence was addressed to the arrogant but sexily dressed ladies who stumped their feet as soon as they heard him. If looks could kill, Alice as well as the middle-ag
She got confused when she saw him press a red button on the wall. Her heart pounded furiously in her chest. Alice's expression was worth making a meme. She was so lost in imagining different scenarios that she failed to notice that the middle-aged man was now staring at her. Meanwhile, the man held in his laughter as he stared at Alice's hilarious expression. A very interesting girl- he mumbled. Not to make Alice awkward, he cleared his throat and motioned her to follow him in.Alice snapped out of her thoughts when she heard the sound. She realized she had been spacing out lately and she needed not to be told the cause of this. "Let's go in", the man said smiling sheepishly. Alice rubbed her head in awkwardness and followed after him. Soon, they stepped into an office and Alice subconciously shivered in fright. The air in this office was very cold and to make things worse for Alice, her mate stepped into the office. Her nerves which were growing less increased with an octave. Her h
As soon as he said this, a young yet sexy woman barged into the office."Hey baby", the lady chirped and immediately walked towards Justin while ignoring the other two. Alice watched as her mate was being pecked and kissed. Her wolf whimpered in pain but there was nothing she could do. Meanwhile, Justin's father was fuming in anger. Times without numbers, he had tried telling his stubborn son that the slut wasn't good for him but he has always been ignored."Oh, father-in-law, you're here?" The lady asked tauntingly."Veronica, that should be a rhetorical question right?", Justin's father scoffed in anger. He knew Veronica Smith was a white lotus. In the presence of Justin, she was always acting like a saint but when he wasn't around, she'd show her true colors."Dad..", Justin forced out of his clenched teeth.""Don't Dad me Justin, am i that small that she didn't see me first before walking over to you? Isn't she a werewolf? My scent isn't masked", Justin's father, Mr. Sylvester
It was hard for the party to keep going according to the plans of Jacob and the one manipulating him. None of them had expected the presence of Joe Salvatore and him suddenly appearing had definitely caused an uproar amongst them here. Every single person in the room who was as old as he was seemed to be avoiding him. Most especially, the ladies who had dared to mock Alice previously were now being slapped and pushed Forward by their fathers. "Go apologize to get now if you don't want to kill us all!" They all yelled at their daughters whom they had only being pampering minutes ago and yet, here they were, being treated like mere breeding tools. In fear, their bodies shook, and despite their grievances, they didn't dare to disobey their fathers, for fear of ending up as a meat to be slaughtered or thrown away. Even without their fathers saying it, they could all see that this was a warning being given to them. Immediately, they rushed straight towards Alice where she still stood be
"What the hell! Joe Salvatore!!!!""How...???" One of the people gasped, mouth wide open as they stared at the middle aged man who slowly stepped into the hall, looking like a war lord. "Wh... Jacob, did you hear that?" Theresa who was still nearby heard the gasps of the one name that haunted her even in her dream and believed she was hallucinating."Huh? Hear what exactly?" Oblivious to the names being gasped out, Jacob asked as he stared around. He was casually taking in everyone's appearance but suddenly, his eyes were glued straight on the one person that had just stepped into the hall."M...mother, who is that? Why does he look so much like sis?" Jacob repeatedly tapped his mother's arm as he tipped his head forward in Salvatore's direction.Theresa immediately turned to look and the moment she saw who it was, her aura seemed to change drastically. It looked like she was about to murder the one man who was now slowly making his way towards them."Umm...what is going on? Mother
"Stop!" Alice screamed, tears streaming down her face as she stared at the two Alphas. Her blurry vision didn't allow her to properly see the expression on both their faces but at this moment, she. couldn't care less about their feelings."Stop! Why! Why? Why do you act like you care? Let me go! You didn't care before, neither should you care now!" Screaming with her fists balled by her side, Alice spat out. Those who knew insiders information were able to figure out she was talking to none other than Just in whose expression was unfathomable the as he stared at her.Watching the tears fall down her face, the only thing he wanted to do was to hold her close to him and give her the comfort she craved for. "I...I..,-" Justin stammered, for the first time in his life, too weak to say a thing. As much as he tried not to care, her tears hurt him deeply. His wolf screamed to be near her. Wanted nothing but to be close to her but his past actions made it impossible."You heard the lady. Lea
Itchiness, that was the only thing Alice felt as Sebastian's arm tightened around her waist. She badly wanted to free herself from his uncomfortable embrace as she was about suffocating. Just as they were wheezing through the crowd, Alice froze upon getting a whiff of the familiar scents. She didn't need to be told whom the scents belonged to as her eyes immediately snapped towards where the scents seemed to have been coming from. Upon meeting eyes with the pair of familiar brown orbs, Alice's tears spilled out like an erupting volcano.She didn't feel Sebastian stiffen the moment she sniffed. Though the huge man had a stern expression on his face, his breathing was erratic. His wolf was quietly whimpering in a corner as he continued to watch tears stream down her face.Unable to bear it anymore, Sebastian turned to Alice, his face hardened more and he opened his mouth to speak."Why are you crying? Do you see that everyone has their eyes on you? If you cry now, what do you think wo
Everyone has their moments and feelings. Sometimes you get the feeling of being watched or being the watcher. The latter was the condition of Justin as he waltzed through the large number of guests. There was this nagging feeling he had been having ever since he arrived at this so called banquet. For some reason,the only thing Justin felt like doing was to go meet the Alpha of Alice's back and beat him to a pulp but he wasn't willing to risk the lives of his pack members as it would only cause war. Veronica was clinging unto him as he walked, making other ladies envious of her. If only they knew of the scars that lied within.Enjoying and basking in the glory of their stares and tiny whispers, Veronica raised her chin high as she walked along with Justin, talking with other alphas who were greedily willing to associate themselves with him."Is he still not here?" The audible whispers couldn't be ignored as a big stomached man asked one of the waiters who humbly shook her head while tr
Soon, Alice finally calmed down and was no longer shivering and shaking as she was before. This made David heave a sigh of relief.Suddenly, series of noises and then footsteps were heard coming towards the cell they were.Seeing Alice jolt again, David an inkling of who those people might be.t"Look at me. I'll be leaving now. I promise, I'll be back to save you. Stay strong for me," David held her by her shoulders and spoke hastily."No,no, no, don't go. Don't leave me here," Alice cried out, reaching out to him but then, he suddenly disappeared just as he came and her hand was outstretched in the air.This was the sight Sebastian saw when he got to Alice's cell."What are you doing?" He hissed out, staring intently at Alice's outstretched hand.Alice immediately and shockingly drew back her hand, rubbing her body lightly while staring at anything but Sebastian. She avoided eye contact with him as well as she could.Of course, this didn't escape Sebastian's sight as a smirk formed
***Violent but essential scene ahead, no rape! No large killings! You've been warned!"B*tch! How dare you talk back to me! Do you want to die?" One of the men yelled and if the situation was on her favor, Alice would have rolled her eyes at their stupidity. She put on a brave front as she flashed a smile at the men who were now licking their lips."Let's be quick about this before the b*stard comes back!" She heard another man curse and Alice grew alert. Judging from how they seemed in haste to leave, it seemed like Sebastian had no idea about this. Then, who'd have sent these men? Different thoughts ran through her head at that time but there was still a smile on her face, making the men unable to tell she was scared and lost in thought."Wait, before you start, I'll like to ask you a question," Alice smiled sweetly at them, batting her lashes. Alice knew what men like these seemed to enjoy the most. They loved to scare their victims but if their victims pretends to seduce them, th
"It's you!" She exclaimed, staring at the last person she expected to see here. It had been so long she had seen him and now,here he was, in the form of a monster. Alice shook her head, thinking this was a dream once again. She didn't want to believe what she was seeing. No! She wanted to but she was finding it hard. It had been so long she had seen him and here he was, now standing before her. What Alice couldn't believe was the fact that he wasn't a werewolf or was he?"Sweetheart, why are you so shocked to see me? Did you not miss me?" He teased, staring at her with a small smile on his face. If only Alice was listening intently, she'd have heard how fast his heart was beating which showed he was currently bothered."D... David, is that really you?" Alice stammered weakly. Her eyes which were formerly lifeless now seemed to have regained hope once again as it locked on David's figure."I'm hurt. Do you take me for someone in your dream?" David who was clad in a black robe grumbl
It's been months since Alice was kidnapped. No one had come for her in the hellhole she was usually tortured in. She had become lifeless and unfeeling to the things outside. Her beautiful orbs which usually had light in them were no longer bright as they once were. As she leaned on the mold wall,clothed in rags, she appeared to be dead. The rhythmic knocks on the wall had never stopped. For the first few months, Alice was enthusiastic about finding out what they meant but as time went on, she began losing hope. The rhythmic knocks no longer meant a thing to her. Judging by the look on her face, she seemed to rather be irritated by it. The only companion Alice had was her wolf who seemed to be getting stronger day by day but it felt like there was something stopping her from letting her wolf out. Alice still hadn't stop asking the devil what he wanted from her but everytime, the only answer she got from him was 'the being in you,'.She had no idea what he was always talking about a
