Right as the man dropped to the ground, he heard a gunshot from the direction he came from. And this time, they weren’t hiding the sounds of guns. They wanted to be seen fighting someone who won’t fall down even if hit by a bullet. Those bastards had everything planned. He won’t be surprised if the fight that was happening there is being captured in an HD video.
[Stay away from their direct sight. Do not be seen! Pass my order!] He wasn’t sure if his words were picked up by any of his men. They weren’t a pack. He was treated as their boss but not their Alpha, thus, his link to them wasn’t as strong. He wasn’t sure if someone heard his wolf but he had no time to stop to make sure he saw one of his men being hit with a bullet dipped in wolfsbane. “Shit!”
“Boss!” The man that missed by the bullet dipped in wolfsbane was surprised to see him.
“Be careful! Where’s Trent?” His eyes wer
“Motherfuck…where are you taking me?” His voice sounded so broken and weak in his own ears.“We are taking you to the safe house.” Ehann’s face came to view. His face was ashen and his eyes were full of worry.“How’s Trent?” He whispered, grabbing Ehann’s wrist. His wolf was down, poisoned by wolfsbane.“Trent was okay, boss. Thank you.” Travis’s blurry face hovered in his face while he felt the movement of water and the engine vibration under him. The safehouse that Ehann was talking about wasn’t a house but a boat. It was one of his boats that was docked in the Marina, registered under a name of a girl that he used to play around with, and became a trusted friend.“Elyon?”“He was with Edsel taking care of the damage.”He recognized it as Ehann’s voice but his eyesight was out of focus and he could no longer see anything unles
Lina screamed before hitting the floor and cutting her lips as she fell face down on the cold tile floor. “Fuck!” She wiped the blood that trickled from the corner of her lips and gagged when she tasted the coppery taste of her own blood. She stopped herself from spitting on the floor. ‘Disgusting!’ She thought to herself as she swallowed the blood and saliva that pooled inside her mouth.Shuddering with disgust, she grabbed her phone that was on the floor with her and checked the time—it was quarter to five. She slept for so long her neck and shoulders were so tense with how she curled herself on the armchair. She was drinking and stalking Eon from random girls in IG. It was easy to do since club Luna has been tagged all over the place. Seeing Eon in the company of different women, made her realize her stupidity. There is no way in hell that Eon would stay like what he promised her.Her eyes turned misty and she exhaled a deep breath, clo
“I need to call Lina.” He told Travis to look for his phone but he had been calling for about an hour and he still wasn’t able to reach her. His patient was running low and he couldn’t wait for this damn boat to reach the shore. “Boss, Ehann called.” “What now?!” He snapped at Travis who was squirming. He didn’t really have to hear what he was going to say to know that it’s something that would add to his growing annoyance. “Uhm, she found the cameras you’ve installed in her house.” Travis averted his gaze even though it wasn’t his fault that the boss’s woman found the cameras that had been secretly installed. “Fuck me!” He pulled his hair and a searing pain spread in his abdomen where a bullet lodged inside erupted in pain. The doctor offered to remove the bullet but he was in such a hurry to get back to Lina that he decided to let the bullet stay since his body would heal on its own in the next two to three days. It would be easier to remove the
Eon shifted Lina’s head in his arm because his arm was losing blood. After much coaxing and promising her that he’s here with her, Lina who was so drunk finally fell asleep. And it’s been ten hours since! He had already slept longer than his usual hours of sleep due to the painkillers and the rhythmic breathing of Lina, next to him. As much as he wanted to watch Lina sleep, he needed to pee. However, every time he moved, she would sob in her sleep.He closed his eyes and breathed slowly through his nose. He’s tempted to wake her up but the thought that Lina might not sleep for how many hours changes his mind. He found out that Lina could stay awake for three to four days—even more with the help of caffeine and some pills.“Hmmm,” she mumbled in her sleep, curling closer to Eon’s side as though she was cold and needed some warmth.Eon smiled softly and stroked her cheek. As he was stroking her cheek, he noticed that
“You’re annoying.”Eon smiled, relieved with what Lina said. He was glad that she wasn’t angry. “It hurts,” he said, slightly moving his arm that Lina hit—still playing with his trump card.Guilt flashed Lina’s eyes. She slept for more than ten hours and she used Eon’s injured arm as her pillow. “Sorry,” she mumbled under her breath, chewing her lower lip.Eon reached for her and she obediently followed when he pulled her into his arms, making sure that she settled on his good arm. He could feel that his wounds were already healing but he just liked the feeling of Lina being gentle around him. He swallowed a smirk and sighed audibly which made Lina get up to check on him.“Did I hurt you?”He pulled her back into the crook of his arm, resting his chin onto the crown of her head to hide his face from her scrutinizing gaze. “I’m fine. Stay where you are. Having
Eon said goodbye to Lina after they had finished their breakfast without any hint that Lina was angry at him. He assumed things were good as Lina didn’t say anything nor treat him differently. She even kissed him goodbye and thank him for looking out after her. He explained to her that the people watching over her were just for precaution and there would be no more camera involved this time. Lina agreed, thus, he thought everything was fine. However, the moment she arrived at Luna, Larissa welcomed him with a question. Not about the incident that made him undisposed but because Lina has been asking about his Luna. Eon furrowed his eyebrows. “What do you mean?” “Lina sent me this photo.” She opened her camera and showed Eon the photo that Lina sent her. Eon’s jaw ticked in annoyance. The photo that Larissa was showing was the photo of Elara in his wallet. That photo has no other copy than the one in his wallet. There is no way that Lina could see it un
Lina was waiting for Larissa’s message but she still got surprised when she saw her name on the screen of her phone, calling her. “Hello, sorry if I disturb you,” she hastily said as soon as she received Larissa’s phone call. “No worries. We’re friends.” She chuckled lightly. “But I can’t stay long. Everyone is busy since Eon just came back.” She went quiet for a long time and Lina could only hear some shouting in the background and the clanging of some pots. It seemed like Larissa was in the kitchen. “I just want to know her name.” She said quietly. She was shaking when she said it, which made her furrow her brows. What’s with the woman in Eon’s wallet to evoke such strange emotion in her. She had been feeling insecure and rattled ever since she saw the photo. That’s why she was asking Larissa about it. She wanted to know about her. She wanted to understand the reason why she was feeling this way. “I’m sorry…” She cleared her throat. “I told Eon abou
When he entered his penthouse, he took off all of his clothes, except for his boxer. He removed the bandage that was covering his upper body and saw the skin of his wounds healing properly. It looked like it had been healed for a week other than a day. He smirked with how fast he healed as he flexed his arms and rolled his shoulders and felt no ounce of pain despite the long line of wounds that would be healed within the day and it won’t leave any scars at all.Despite the status of his wounds, he still took some medicine as well as the concoction of wild purple rose to combat the wolfsbane in his system. Although most of it was already washed out for his wolf was already back in being sarcastic, he wanted to remove all the traces of wolfsbane in his system to speed up his healing process. Since the full moon is still far yet he forced his wolf to come out and turn, not to mention the wolfsbane that was poisoning his wolf, hindering his normal quick healing abilities.
