The Escape

2022-01-13 07:30:54Lina blinked and opened her eyes into the darkness. She could hear the faint sounds of the rain as it pitter-pattered on the tin roof. She ran her hands all over her body and she didn’t feel anything strange except for the heaviness of her eyelids. The jerks injected something in her that made her fall asleep on the road. She had no idea where she was but she’s still lying in the backseat of the old truck.
She slapped her face to wake herself up and slowly pushed her body up the seat. She had to hurry. If they come back, she won’t be able to escape. Before they injected her with the drugs that drove her into a deep slumber, the men discussed how they had to just put enough to put her down while they were at the house of the other man. They needed her awake when they presented her to the elders of the pack. She had no idea what they meant but it’s not the time to know those things. There are a lot of things that she didn’t know and had no plan of knowing. She pushed the door

“Would you mind taking off your coat?” The woman asked while lighting the three candles on the small kitchen table, carefully arranged inside a round metal tray.Lina stared at the woman for a few seconds, she glanced over her shoulder then pulled out the wrench from the inside of the coat pocket and put it on the table, next to her steaming cup of coffee.The other woman laughed. “Atta girl. No need to worry, other than my two cats, I am alone in this house. You’ve already met Enola. Her brother Sherlock was already in my bedroom, sleeping.”Lina felt at ease with the way the woman talked and the fact that they were alone in the house. She shook off the oversized coat off her shoulders and was about to put it on a chair next to her when the woman took it from her and brought it to the kitchen counter. She watched as she opened the kitchen drawers, pulled out a black garbage bag and put the coat inside then tied the bag with some dr

“Where is she?” Tamara looked at the man, standing on her front steps, wearing a scowl on his handsome face. “Despite all the precautions that I put in to make sure that no one would find her and yet, here you are in my place.” “I have no time to play with you, witch! Where is she?” He growled at the woman, wearing a white nightdress and nothing else, standing cockily against her door frame. “I don’t know why you’re still asking me when you already know the answer. She’s not here.” She smirked gleefully at the anger in his face. Eon put his hand on her delicate neck in the blink of an eye. Two cats hissed behind her while she just laughed as if her life wasn’t in his hands—literally. “You smell different from the ones that were running after her.” She grinned when Eon's hand loosened around her neck. “And because of that, I’ll let you in.” Eon pushed the woman inside and he went in, growling at the two cats that were glaring at him, hi

“Where to now, boss?”Eon didn’t look at Frio. He looked outside the car’s window, trying to process his emotions. They didn’t find Lina but he found out that she was safe. And for that, he was thankful. However, he wasn’t one hundred percent happy with the thought that someone took her and she chose to call whoever that person was than him. His jealousy was raging.“Back at my father’s pack. I need an elder from what the witch gave me.” He glanced at the black garbage back, sitting next to him at the passenger seat. He had Frio drive while Ehann sat in the passenger seat and he took the backseat. Not finding Lina and from what he heard from the witch, pissed him off that he would rather just contemplate at the back of the car than drive.Frio and Ehann could sense his bad mood that the two didn’t make any noise in the whole duration of the drive back to his father’s pack. The more than six hours

“Start talking!” Ehann kicked the two men tied back to back on their sides, making them topple to the side on the hard ground.“We know nothing! You have to believe me! I have a family and my wife…ugh!” He gasped for air as his friend elbowed him, making him stop talking as he spat saliva on the ground. His eyes watered with how much pain he was feeling. They were tied with rope soaked in wolfsbane. Every time one of them moved their insides were being lit on fire.Ehann walked slowly in front of the other man. “You were stopping your friend to talk, even when he knew nothing.” He grinned, grabbing a handful of the man’s hair, yanking it to make him look at him. “Do you want to tell me things, instead?”The man spat but his saliva just fell back on his own face. “We have an Alpha.” His mocking tone didn’t escape Ehann, his left hand curled into a fist, cracking the man’s left ja

“You are saying that you have no idea of what the Lykanthos did to my woman?” Eon asked the other man, sitting across from him from a Maple table. The coffee in front of them turned cold and untouched. “No,” he replied in a cold tone. The atmosphere between them was terse. “All I knew was that the Lykanthos was giving me a feast because they wanted to be part of my pack. I have no prior knowledge of what they were preparing for me.” Eon stared at the other man coldly. He doesn’t believe everything that he was telling was the truth. But he didn’t come here to seek the truth. He’s here to issue a warning. That no one should dare touch what was his for he won’t just sit down and watch. “Can I ask a few questions?” He creased his forehead for what Alpha James could need from him. But he didn’t say anything, just rolled his neck as he clasped his hands on the table. “I’ve heard how you fixed the problem with the mining company—” “It’s my fa

“Are you sure you wanted to stay here?” Zhan looked around the apartment that used to be their love nest. His hand circled his wife’s waist, pulling her closer to him. He felt a bit of guilt, taking his wife here but she insisted on personally checking on Lina.She chuckled and winked at Stephanie who was rolling her eyes with how Zhan was acting so protective. “I’ll be fine here. This is the only place that I have happy memories.” She smiled apologetically to Zhan’s wife.Life was really strange. She never thought that it would bring her to this situation where the first man she loved would be standing in front of her with his wife. She was expecting to feel hurt but strangely she didn’t. Zhan and Stephanie were the ones who went above and beyond to make sure that she would come home safely. She didn’t expect them to do so and now she was glad that she called Zhan to ask for help.

“She is with whom?” He stood up from his swivel chair forcefully and it toppled as he got up. He gripped his phone so hard that veins popped up from the back of his hand. “She is with her ex-boyfriend. It was him that she called to pick her up from the house of Miss Tamara Whitefield.” Markus kept his voice calm and steady. Eon’s anger couldn’t be hidden despite the thousands of miles of distance. “Do you want the rest of my report?” Eon growled. “Give me a minute.” He had already expected that Lina called someone that has a strong connection with her but he didn’t expect it to be her ex. [What the hell was she thinking?] His wolf didn’t reply and just growled. It took him a minute before he was able to ask Markus to continue with the report of his investigation. “Lina arrived in Shanghai after her layover in Hongkong. What’s really interesting was that from Hongkong, she took a commercial flight even though the private plane was at her disposal.

“That’s what you got wrong, Lina. You are my responsibility. After all, you are my niece.”She slowly blinked, her brain was stuck up in the process of what Briare said. “Niece?” Her voice crocked. How did she become Briare's niece when it doesn't look like he has Asian blood? Her heart thumped painfully in her chest for she remembered when she was young, kids in the neighborhood used to tease her as a half-mixed. When she became an adult, people just shrugged off her looks that were a bit different from others as a result of an operation. She didn’t get any. She didn’t go under a knife but she didn’t correct those wrong assumptions because it would be more complicated to explain how she doesn’t really look so Asian when both of her parents are.Her gaze slowly drifted to Vanessa who was sitting next to Briare. She wanted to see any indication that Briare was just joking but Vanessa was wearing her poker face.

Lina woke up from the feeling of warm water gently splashing on her skin. When she opened her eyes, she saw Eon in deep concentration, washing her naked body in the tub. She looked to her right and noticed that they were in their own cabin. “Hey, welcome back.” He grinned, caressing her cheek. “What happened?” She asked in confusion. Eon had the audacity to smirk and arch his brow. “Well, sweetheart, I could remind you what exactly had happened,” he said in the soft tone of voice, flicking her nipple that was peeking on the water. “What a jerk!” She cupped some water in her hands and threw it to Eon’s face to wipe the smug expression on it. “You were asking,” he chuckled, wiping the water off his face as he stood up and started removing his clothes and without a word stepped inside the tub with her. He took the other end, opposite from her. He had his knees bent but his legs were wide open. Lina swallowed, and the thought of crawling in between his legs, to settle in the comfort
Under The Waning Moon The Honeymoon
The murky water of the swamp rippled and then became calm again as if nothing had happened. The silver moon was high in the night sky and the gentle breeze blew as they all stood at the bank, watching the swamp in silence.The wedding bouquet that Lina threw in the water could no longer be seen in the dark. She stepped closer to Eon’s side who automatically opened his arm to enfold her.“Eon, Lina, we have to go. Thank you for inviting us to your wedding.” Briare’s voice broke the silence between them.“Thank you for coming for such short notice,” Eon replied, extending his hand for a handshake then realized that Lina was like a small chick under his right arm, that he had to move to his left and again offered his hand for a shake to Briare. “Hope to still see you at Luna,” he added.Briare smiled at Eon’s invitation but in his eyes was sadness that Eon could not help but wonder what this man had been
Under The Waning Moon Visiting The Relatives
“Lina Baptiste, today, I want to take you as my wife,” Eon said, kneeling in front of her.She gasped, covering her agape mouth with her hands as she stared at the kneeling Eon in disbelief. She lifted her gaze away from Eon for a few minutes and glanced at Elyon, Edina, and Ehann. They were all smiling at them, standing a few feet away from them.“I-I don’t know what to say. I couldn’t believe that you’re going to pull this kind of shit!” She slapped Eon’s shoulder as her eyes looked around the familiar path to the cliff that was decorated with white flowers. She wondered when Eon prepared all of it.“Baby, please, say yes and hurry because we are running after the sunset,” he laughed in amusement with the disbelief on Lina’s face.“Okay!” She laughed. She handed Eon her right hand then her left. She was confused about which hand to give.Eon took her left hand and slipp
Under The Waning Moon A Sunset Wedding
“Holy shit! You’re getting married!”Elyon won’t stop grinning as if he was the one getting married.Eon scoffed but an equally wide grin was on his face. “Ask Edina to come because just as I’ve said…if you’re even listening, you jerk! Lina needs another woman to be her maid of honor and since you’re already my best man, your mate would be just perfect.”Elyon's glee was abruptly wiped off his face. “Dude, this mate thing…is quite—” He cocked his head to the side because he was lost for words and helplessly stared at Eon. “Was it really this hard?”Eon glanced at Ehann before returning his gaze to Elyon. “If you’re asking if it was really that hard to breathe without her next to you…then the answer is yes.” He laughed. “You’re screwed big time since it includes always wanting to be inside her.”Ehann, who was
Under The Waning Moon I Need A Best Man
Surveying the waffles, the scrambled eggs, and the fresh fruit on the breakfast tray that Eon put down on the bed, she glanced up at him in wonder.“How did you make this breakfast?”He smirked. “You don’t have confidence in your husband that I can give you whatever you want?”Lina rolled her eyes and clicked her tongue at him for two things. Because of how overbearing he was with a smug look on his face to be able to catch her in surprise with her breakfast request, served in bed and the second factor was him, calling himself her husband.It does tickle her fancy. She definitely likes the sound of it. ‘Her husband.’ However, they aren’t married and they haven’t talked about marriage at all. They talked about children but a wedding was a topic that they haven’t touched. She didn’t know if it was avoided or just that they didn’t think about it. Thus, now that Eon is calling himself her
Under The Waning Moon Whatever You Like
When Lina came out of the bathroom, Alpha Aaron was no longer in the cabin. “Where is your father?” She asked, scanning the room. She came out of the bathroom wearing lounge pants and a sweater. She had no idea whose clothes she was wearing but they were comfortable. The perfect wear for the cold mountain night. “He had to leave because the Alpha of Lykanthos was caught and brought here.” “Oh,” she said with a sharp intake of breath. “You aren’t going to—” She had no idea what Eon should or could do. He shook his head and opened his arms and she strolled inside them and pressed her cheek on her chest. “We are just guests here. Whatever business they have, they will settle them on their own. Besides, why would I want to meet another egoistic Alpha when I have a beautiful woman in my arms?” He whispered over her head, rubbing her back. The slow movement of his large palm, rubbing her back in a small circle is giving her soft feelings. Sh
Under The Waning Moon A Small Amount Of Mercy
When Eon returned to the small receiving area of the cabin, Alpha Aaron was quietly drinking his tea. If he didn’t know that the Deep Forest pack was attacked and his father’s pack successfully defended his pack and his position as an Alpha, he would have been able to draw a strong alliance with the two packs in his borders, and a successful Turning ceremony. Eon would not know that his father was bone-tired. That he was just keeping it together but he had to take care of a lot of things and be able to make a sensible decision for the well-being of all the wolves of the Deep Forest pack. He has never been so amazed and admired his father than today.And now, he had to make another hard decision. He had to give a punishment to his own daughter.Eon took the only chair left on the table and without a word poured himself a cup of tea.“Lina won’t sit with us?”Eon met his father’s eyes. “No. I’d rather not.&rdq
Under The Waning Moon I Already Knew
“When are you going to tell her about Larissa?” Ehann nodded in Lina’s direction, who was talking with Alpha Tomas.“Later…”He said with a sigh. It’s something that he doesn’t want to discuss with Lina as much as possible. She doesn’t want to tell Lina what will happen to Larissa after she was known to conspire with the pack that attacked the Deep Forest pack, resulting in some members of the pack being heavily injured and one dying.Larissa, together with his two half-brothers were confirmed to connive with the Lykanthos pack to attack the Deep Forest pack. Her two brothers were killed by Laurence with the help of the wolves from the Rising Sun pack. Larissa was caught escaping with the Alpha of the Lykanthos pack but the coward Alpha of the Lykanthos used her as a trap and escaped on his own. Larissa is not held prisoner in one of the secret dungeons of the Deep Forest.And it’s something that she do
Under The Waning Moon Pledging Of Alliance
After the chaotic mess that happened at the end of the Turning ceremony where Elyon jumped down from the viewing deck, claiming the unmoving new she-wolf, Edina while the rest of the young wolves were scattered all over Deep Forest and the adults who were tasked to follow the new wolves. After Eon and Ehann had a really good laugh because their premonition of Elyon having a mate twenty years his junior just happened. All the while the two were splitting their sides with laughter, she just watched them in amusement. It’s another side of Eon that she had witnessed. And in a few moments that she was watching Eon laughing at his friend's supposed misfortune, she had a glance of what Eon was like as a teen with his friends. When they finally stopped laughing, they all went down from the viewing deck because they were the only ones left. “Where did the other go?” “At the after party of course,” Eon grinned. “Are we going there too?” He cares
