ZEN RIFTAN

"They have arrived, Sir."

I close my eyes and yawn, feeling the fatigue leave my body. Putting the book aside, I lifted my head and faced my servant who came to relay the news.

"Who exactly?"

"Sir Vale and the others."

Vale. The Beta of my pack. My right hand and my assistant. The boy my parents entrusted to ensure my well-being.

"Where is he, now?"

"He should be in the dining hall, taking his meal. Would you like me to come fetch him?"

I waved my hands and declined, "No need. Allow him to dine. He must be starving after all the journey he spent. We should give him time, alone."

"Sir Riftan!"

I flinch, hearing that desperate cry resonate from the halls. Turning my head back, I see another servant of mine- face ghasted. I allow her to breath for a moment, before explaining the ruckus she had been procuring.

"We told you not to run in the halls, Linda!" my guard yelled at her. "How many times have we told you about that?! You never listen! You know that Sir Riftan is not very

  • Vermillion Haze (Red Riding Hood Series)   You Cannot Trust An Assassin

    RUBY VERMILLIONTo hell with Riftan and that pathetic, dramatic Beta of his!I grabbed my pencil and clenched it with my fists until the lead broke in half. How dare they humiliate and play with my emotions just like that?How dare they judge me like I was nothing?I swear to the heavens above that I won't let them break me again. May it be that darned Riftan or that little maid of his!"Ruby. Calm down... you'll open the wounds on your skin again."I looked at Linda with an annoyed expression and rolled my eyes, "I'll make them pay. Of course, you're out of it Linda."She heaved a sigh and sat beside me, "That doesn't make me feel anything better at all. You seemed to have hurt yourself a lot with Sir Vale.""I didn't lose though," I flipped my hair and shrugged my shoulders. "That weirdo was the loser who went crawling in the floor, first.""Yes, yes. Of course, you didn't.""He was weak in the first place! Didn't even get the chance to knock me out-""Who's weak?" a voice interrup

    The taste of blood inside my mouth was strong. Linda and the others looked at me with horrified expressions. A few guards have come to view when their Alpha was injured by none other than me. The assassin destined to kill him."You may have taken me into your custody, Riftan, but it does not change the fact that I am the predator, and you are my prey."Vale dropped his sword and summoned the sharpest claws I've ever seen, ready to pierce me anytime. "I've given you shelter and food. You've made friends with my people. What else am I going to do to earn your trust?" Riftan demanded with a low and dangerous voice."Nothing," I gritted my teeth and crossed my arms. "There's nothing you can do to earn my trust, Riftan. Nothing. I'd rather die-""I won't kill you," he bellowed in firm words and gave me a stern look. "I can't kill you.""Well, then that makes my job even more easier," I smirked. "If you can't kill me then I-""You can't kill me either." A servant approached him and gave

    "I want you to see me as a man, and love you. Even if it is forbidden."Our eyes locked for a few minutes. I could not hear anything else but the loud beating of our hearts. Riftan was dead serious about this entire mate thing. Is he seducing me? I can't tell! Someone! Please make me understand! "Why are you acting like this, Riftan?" I asked him, puzzled. "Why are you trying to mess with my feelings?""I am not messing with your feelings," he answered me instantly. "

    I am still in complete shock after the incident last night. I brought my fingers to my lips and caressed them, while looking myself in a mirror. I am still in a dilemma as to how Riftan had caught feelings for me, even if I was this messed up.And so do I.I was also in a dilemma as to why I was in denial to accept Riftan's confession. Ever since I was caught, the male did not do anything to me. And it was probably the other way around. I was the one who kept hurting them. I could not help myself. No matter how much I tried to forgive them.No matter how much I convinced myself that not all of them are the same.No matter how much I tried to see the beauty in them,I could still not find a way to look at them from a different perspective.I was aware that there were good Weres and bad Weres. And in every moment of my life, I always seem to meet the bad ones. I was taught how to punish and prevent them from hurting other people- by hurting them.The Phantomcrescent pack exceeded

  • Vermillion Haze (Red Riding Hood Series)   Banquet of Alphas

    The carriage dashed upon the sea of frozen trees. Though it was snowing outside, the carriage remained warm inside. My eyes were almost closed, preparing for a long slumber, but I forcefully tried to keep them open.Riftan was before me, eyeing the windows with a bored expression. Riftan looked aristocratic and princely. Those dark suits perfectly matched the male's tanned body and snow-coloured hair. Well, it is safe to say that whatever Riftan wears—whether rags or sacks—he triumphs over them and brings them to their best image. Any outfit would look good on him. He shifted his head to me and crossed his arms, "Nervous?" I shook my head and rolled my eyes. "What would I be nervous about? It's just a celebratory banquet, isn't it?""A celebratory banquet of all the influential Weres in this continent," he added. "It is not just a mere dinner. Many alphas, just like me, are going to be dining with us at the same table.""Well, that is not something I should be scared about. Afte

    "It seems like you have caught the person that we wanted the most, Zen."Riftan resumed his meal while I froze. I could not even move my utensils to dine. Wariness won over me while locking my eyes on the Alpha, who spoke to me like I was a fish baited to land."It was only a coincidence that she had planned to make me one of her newest targets," Riftan replied. "But unfortunately, They captured her just as she reached the base. She was already weakened by snow and her illness."I grit my teeth at Riftan. How dare he talk about my illness in front of everyone else?"The infamous Little Red Riding Ho

    RUBY VERMILLIONWhat's taking him so long?I had already finished my meal, and I still couldn't spot him anywhere. If I leave this place and escape, I swear that it would be his fault. I looked around me, trying to catch a glimpse of his silhouette in the surroundings. But all I see were Weres on their beautiful suits and dresses.Riftan is a tall man with unusual white hair, so spotting him would be easy. I just don't understand why I am not seeing him right now."Hey there," a woman whispered to me. I turned my head aside and realized she was one of the table's Lunas. I gently arched my head and bowed at her in respect.I can't make too funny movements. I must remain pleasant because if these Weres ever found me disrespectful, they would break my bones and feed on them."What's your name?" she asked. "My name is Stella.""It's Ruby," I responded to her and smiled. "Ruby... you have a very beautiful name. It befits you perfectly.""Thank you," I responded to her. "Yours too. It so

Riftan was left in the bedroom, taking off his clothes and reaching out to a nearby dresser to get some spare clothes.I opened the bathroom door and peeked at him.

My sudden movement wakes the male. "R-Riftan?!""Ugh... what?""W-What did we...""We didn't do anything."The sunlight peered from behind the curtains, and we could hear the sound of cogs and wheels. I stared at Riftan. He was shirtless and had a huge wound on his lower torso. I

    "Sir?!"I felt a cold hand grasp me. My eyes instantly opened as balls of sweat streamed down from my face.There was a woman before me, holding a mop on her other hand.My breathing became uneven, I gasp for air as I sat straight."You were having a nightmare, Sir." A nightmare.That's right.It was only a nightmare. It isn't real. Nothing is.

    ZEN RIFTANMy body felt so heavy.I remember waking up in a vast flowerbed of daisies and dandelions. The warm sun gently bestowing me with its ethereal light. As my irises focused to grasp my surroundings, I slowly lifted my self up and probed around.I remember this place.Where was I exactly? What was I doing? How did I end up being there?All of those, I can remember.

    Run. I sprinted across the snow, trying to get back to the inn. I regretted my decision to meet with Sir Dreyar. Everything became much more worse!I could see the door from our room. I reach out to it and opened the door. I went inside and locked it behind me, and then took the time to breathe some air.'He was just toying with you. None of that matters now. Tomorrow will be your last day here in this place. Just stay close to Riftan and-'

    Riftan lay on the couch, eyes heavy from the alcohol. I chuckled as his head hit the cushions with a soft thud. Poking him did nothing—he was out cold."Weakling," I muttered, amused. Who knew one mug of beer could knock him out so easily?As I stared at him, a dark thought crept into my mind. Kill him now.The voices in my head told me.I could end him, use the lamp to stab him... But then what? I'd be hunted before I even got back to the palace."No," I breathed, shaking my head. "It's not the time. Don't mess this up."Taking a deep breath, I crouched and lifted his arm over my shoulder, dragging him to the bed. He groaned in his sleep as I tucked him in."Let's get you to bed," I whispered, more to myself than him. He was out for the count. I had the whole day to myself, and an unsettling memory of Dreyar’s offer lingered in my mind. Evening came, and Riftan still hadn't stirred. I watched the golden clock tick away the hours, then sighed. Waiting for him to wake up wasn’t an opt

    I could see Riftan’s composure slipping, his hand twitching as he forced himself to eat. I stayed silent, feeling the heat rise in my cheeks."Haha, my bad, Riftan, I was just explaining why you wouldn’t let her drink.""That’s not the reason!" Riftan gritted his teeth. "At least… that’s not the reason.""Then what is it?" Dreyar provoked. "Why are you so adamant?""I-I think we should stop here," I whispered, feeling Riftan’s embarrassment. "It would be bad if he got mad at me."Dreyar chuckled, ignoring me. "Zen, let the woman make her own decisions. She follows her king."Dreyar’s words dripped with malice, and Riftan’s glare intensified,"Stop provoking me, Hector," he warned. "I don’t appreciate you mentioning his name.""Kinh Ydrian Hezel," Dreyar continued with a smirk, "The Great King of Hezel.""You know him?" I asked, curious."Everyone knows the Great King," Dreyar whispered, his eyes gleaming. "Watch me piss Zen off by saying his name over and over again."He cleared his th

    RUBY VERMILLIONRiftan and I walked toward the taverns, our steps echoing the tension between us. After last night’s strange encounter, we’ve been avoiding each other, unsure if that kiss was a dream or reality. The memory was too fuzzy.This morning, I found Riftan pacing the room, his restlessness stirring the floorboards. Irritated, I threw a pillow at him. He stopped, wide-eyed, scratched his nape, and then turned away, avoiding my gaze. I wasn’t sure if he was embarrassed, but I wasn’t taking the blame—it was his kiss on my forehead, after all.Riftan pointed to a busy, run-down shack. “Shall we eat here?”“Sure,” I mumbled.As soon as we stepped inside, the tavern fell silent. All eyes were on us, particularly on me. Riftan remained indifferent, but I could feel the weight of their stares, the whispers that followed us.“Isn’t she the assassin who killed our brethren?”“Why did Lord Dreyar let her into the camp?”Their words didn’t hurt me anymore. I’d been through enough.“Rift
