Lina giggled in her dreams when the dog she called Galan nuzzled her hand then licked her face. "Stop…stop!" She said, laughing. The dog listened but he then dropped himself on the ground and rolled over, exposing his belly, asking for a belly rub.
Lina lowered down on the ground and scratched Galan's belly. She had forgotten her fear of the dogs that could come any minute. Galan made her forget that she's in her nightmare and a pack of dogs could chase her and attack her at any time.
Eon, on the other hand, furrowed his brows because Lina would giggle every time he would wipe her face to remove her makeup. 'What could you be dreaming about?' he wondered as he continued the tedious task of cleaning her up. The task itself wasn't so bad but the fact that his body reacted voluntarily every time he touched Lina.
"You're such a pervert!" He talked rather loudly to himself. He wasn't so proud of himself for taking advantage of Lina's situation. He couldn't help hi
'Why are you jealous?' Lina bit down the question that she was dying to ask Eon. She doesn't want to be in a relationship where she is the only one that would love. She's tired of being a choice that never got chosen. Eon watched Lina's expression. When it seemed that she's not going to ask any questions, he rolled to his side, facing her. "Go back to sleep. You need to rest." He reached for her, grazing his knuckles on her cheeks. "I don't want to sleep." Eon knitted his brows. He has been watching Lina since she came to Luna. She looked so agitated and jumpy. It came to his mind that she must have taken something but when he wiped away the makeup from her face, he saw the dark circles under her eyes—a clear indication of lack of sleep. He wondered if his words were the ones that kept her awake. "What do you mean?" He asked because he doesn't want to take her statement in the wrong way. He could interpret her sentence into different meanings, one wou
Eon hurriedly finished his shower. He wanted to find Lina. He usually takes half an hour in the shower, taking his time but today he finished his shower in just five minutes. He roughly wiped his hair with the fluffy towel, put on a pair of jeans that had been washed too many times, and a gray v-neck t-shirt. He threw the towel he used to dry his hair on the way out of his bedroom. The soiled towel landed on the floor, next to the couch. He walked with long, hurried steps to the other half of his penthouse. He confirmed what his wolf said that Lina was still in the building when he smelled the scent of fried egg in the air. 'Did Lina cook breakfast?' [No.] His wolf answered coldly. [What's wrong with you?] He asked with furrowed eyebrows. His wolf has been acting up since he went quiet on him. He still had his brows knitted tightly when he entered the kitchen where Lina was eating on the kitchen island. He scanned the kitchen and found no one.
"You know that you are so annoying, right?" Lina glared at Eon behind the steering wheel. When she finished drying her dress, she bid him goodbye but he insisted on driving her back to her hotel in her annoyance. But Eon wasn’t fazed with her sour mood. He just chuckled lightly at her as if he was amused whenever she glared at him. She doesn’t want to be how she could get rid of him without sounding like an ingrate, she threw her gaze outside the window. “I think it would be best if you don’t come to Luna–” “I have no plan to come back there. Don’t worry!” She snapped at him, stopping his sentence midway. Eon clicked his tongue. “I’m telling you not to come back to Luna for no other reason than, those who kidnapped you, got you there. Until we don’t know who they are and what they want from you…”He stopped the car at the red light. “Let’s play safe and avoid places that were already your routine.” Lina sighed. In her brain, Eon’s explanation m
Eon stood close to Lina when she swiped her card key in her door. He pushed the door wider when he heard the door click. Lina grunted but didn’t say anything. If she says something, a discussion would just ensue. She doesn't want to debate with Eon anymore. She just wanted him to go away, so she could finish packing her stuff and move to her new place. And she can't do that if Eon is hovering over her shoulders. Eon knew that Lina was unhappy with him but he also knew that if he let her do whatever she wanted, she would just run away from him. And he can't afford that to happen. Thus, despite knowing that she doesn't want him to be inside her penthouse, he shamelessly strode inside, ahead of her as if he owns the place. There was nothing out of the ordinary in the place. It has all the luxuries and comforts that you would expect from a penthouse. But what stopped Eon wasn't the luxurious design of the room, nor the pile of clothes that were scattered all over
'We are coming.' Lina shuddered. The three ominous words that were written in red paint in the bathroom mirror kept on replaying in her head. They were like three pairs of eyes, staring at her, looking straight to her soul, telling her to run for they are coming. Her nightmares where a pack of dogs was running after her flashed in her head and she whimpered. She pulled Eon's leather jacket's collar tighter around her neck. His scent that was clinging on the leather gave her comfort. Eon gave her his jacket when she wouldn't stop shaking the moment she saw the words of the people who were after her. Now, he is the one talking to the hotel management about what happened because she couldn't form a coherent sentence. Her words overlapped with each other, her voice shaking as well as her whole body, teeth chattering. He was discussing the missing security footage with the chief of security of the hotel when he heard Lina whimpering and his heart was clenched in h
“So freaking annoying!”“You’ve been telling me that. You’re such an ungrateful b-”“What?!”Eon laughed when Lina snarled at her like an adorable, pissed-off pup. “..b-beautiful angel.” He grinned, chuckling to himself.“Jerk!” She crossed her arms over her chest. She has been throwing some tantrums for Eon was dead serious when he said that he would check the place she’s moving into to make sure that it was safe for her to stay.The reason why she was moving was to stay away from him and to try to change her lifestyle but now that he’s coming to see the house she’s renting, the main purpose of her move would be useless. Her deathly glare was returned with a chuckle and a wide smile that has been driving her insane for the last hour. Not only because it infuriates the hell out of her but mostly—she wanted to push him down and ride him.Eon knew t
Eon walked around Lina's apartment, surveying every nook which wasn't much since the place was quite small compared to penthouses where she used to stay. "Why did you stop staying in a hotel?" "And how did you know that I stay in a hotel?" She crocked her eyebrow. "I heard from Larissa," Eon turned his back to Lina for he was caught off guard with her question. He was just so curious about the sudden move that Lina did that he couldn't help but ask. "I didn't expect you to be a nosy brother." She scoffed. Eon exhaled a relieved sigh with what he heard because Larissa didn't tell him anything. He just lied because he was guilty that he had Lina investigated. And as much as possible, he didn't want her to know that piece of information. He casually walked to the threshold leading to the garden and put a miniature camera in a small crack on the wall. Since Lina refused any of his men to be around her, she even asked them to leave right af
The sound of the glass crashing the marble floor broke the silence of the room like a booming sound. The sound of the shattered glass was followed by explicit curses from Eon. Ehann stood rigidly next to the door, he was unmoving for he knew Eon's temper. He needed to release his anger first before he would talk. Thus, Eon is dangerous when he's angry. He let his rage consume him, his wolf taking over. The reason for Eon's outburst was the report of the investigation regarding Lina's kidnapping. The photos that were included in the report show Nikolas and his brother. Not only did the bastard bring drugs inside Luna when he knew that it was one of his rules not to, now he kidnapped Lina inside his club. "How accurate is this information?" Eon picked up the folder of documents that Ehann brought him first thing in the morning about the group that attempted to abduct Lina. "It's 99 percent accurate. They are the new group that has been trying to throw u
