After waving goodbye to Lucas’s group, Selene hurries to the cafeteria. Being in a different house, she didn’t have the luxury to pack her lunch. So she’s left with buying food. Thankfully, her aunt gave her some money during her last visit.As she was making her way through the field between the main building and the canteen, she gets stopped by a sudden strike on her head. She nearly loses her balance, if not for the trees nearby, which she immediately grabs hold of.Shocked and daze from the surprise, she touches the part that got hit, feeling the sticky, gelatinous liquid flowing through her hair.Her face wrinkles, catching a waft of the rancid stench upon sniffing her palm. Most of the shells became stuck. She tries to wipe herself clean, but most of the goo had gotten to her shirt, causing the smell to spread all over.With trees nearby, she search for any nest where it may have come from. Afraid some poor bird had lost its home and babies.But then, seeing a few laughing girl

Not wanting to go return to class, Selene left early, but instead of going back to her place of work, she went straight to her aunt’s house, needing someone to talk to.All the weight she carried from the conflicting emotions in her was making her distraught. Unable to focus because of all the confusion. Adding to all his frustrations were all the unanswered questions she had, which continued to bother her since she got to school.Eager to release some of those burdens, there was only one person she could talk to about it who came to her mind, the only individual who would understand her problem.Once again, seeing those picket fences and flower filled garden brought about this warmth and calmness in her, lightening the load she’d been carrying since this morning.“Aunt Pen?”She couldn’t help herself, having this sense of need to call unto the woman.Though it had only been a few days when they had gotten separated, yet the homesickness truly got to her.As Selene was opening the gat

Is it an animal? No, it cannot be, though it moves on all fours, had fur all over its body, along with those fangs and glowing red eyes. Its entire figure still resembled that of a human.Even within the darkness of the night, the memories crash into her mind thanks to the silhouette appearing before her. It made it easy to make out the being in front of her.All those missing pieces of memory she worried about came piling up one by one.The pain of being bitten, torn, and dragged into the forest. Blood gurgling from the trying to breathe, and the lonely touch of death seeping right through her every being. All of this returned to her in an instant, filling her with an extreme dread.Terror crawled into her, like vines creeping throughout her body, causing her to lose all sense from her arms down to her legs.She could no longer tell past from present, experiencing everything all at once. Shock and fear had now taken over her, numbing her entirety, because of all the recollection of p

After his brief outburst, Duncan and his two trusted subordinates let the maids handle Selene and the mess he made while they went back to the main mansion, straight to his father’s office.Anger remained swelling up inside of him, all the while glaring into the other house just beyond the hedge maze. He could not calm himself, sensing that there was something wrong.“We caught the culprit, and she was no alpha. She was a freaking omega. Which means she couldn’t turn her. So how does that explain her healing herself?”He continued biting his nails, heart racing from all the emotions rushing through him.Now that they captured the reason for the problems they were facing, he could not stop thinking about how to deal with it.He was certain the evidence they had was strong enough, but he also became sure it would not matter, especially since they were up against a rival that equaled their influence and power.It irked him so much that a recently risen pack manage to gain such strength i

Selene couldn’t stop her sobbing, no matter how she tried. Because of what happened, all the terrible memories she had been keeping inside burst forth, flashing before her eyes.All those walls she’d put around her heart to protect herself turned into dust, crumbling into nothingness in an instant.Dark silhouettes of people surrounding her, all of them with those frowning angry faces, shouting, screaming, and throwing insults at her.‘Get away from us!’‘You’re nothing but bad luck.’‘Don’t ever show your face here again!’‘Are you crazy?’These were but a few of those words repeatedly ringing inside her head, things she had thought she had forgotten, buried deep within the confines of her subconscious.But it brought all of those repressed memories, along with the sudden and confusing attack from Duncan.Old doubts and self loathing emerge again, bringing forth all the hatred she’d been harboring.She curled into a fetal position, hugging her knees in sheer panic, wanting to have th

After what happened, they gave her an entire week off, allowing her to leave and do whatever she wanted in order so that she could cool off and relax. They even provided her an allowance for the whole time she’d be gone.It seems they had forgotten she had no other place to go, leaving her with no choice but to return to her aunt’s home. She didn’t want to waste her money to stay in some hostel, somewhere.It would have been all good, if not for that one reminder the head maid told her, which she couldn’t get out of her mind.‘Don’t come back until we call you.’These words repeatedly whispered through her thoughts, lingering within the depths of her subconscious, curious and baffled by the reason the woman would say this. But in the end, she did not have the courage to ask.Before leaving, she tried searching for Duncan because of the voice at the back of her head, telling her to at least say goodbye and inform him of her whereabouts. But only Julieta faced her, telling her she did n

Penelope’s smile reached to her ear, radiating such a joyous shine it could blind. Of course, she remained unaware of it, even though she was looking at herself in front of the large, oval mirror. She stops brushing her hair, hearing the doorknob rattling. She immediately turns her gaze towards the door when she heard it creak open. An old woman peaked from the entrance, her creasing forehead became more prominent, noticing Pen’s expression. Though walking shakily, she kept her dominant composure even if she was hunching and her steps slow. Penelope straighten, shifting her body to turn to her, along with putting on a straight face. She flinches from the sudden thud of the woman’s cane on the floor, swallowing hard when her heart beat nearly stops from the sound getting closer. “It’s late. Why aren’t you asleep?” The elder’s eyes squinted while scouring parts of her room. “I’m still drying my hair, grandma.” Pen put on her sweetest smile before returning her sights to the mi

Aunt Pen turned quiet the rest of the day, ending Selene’s probing. There was no mention of it at all, as every time the subject was brought up, Penelope Hallow would outright disregard and change the topic in an instant.It became clear the woman didn’t want to talk about it. But what Selene can’t understand was how much one simple name could rattle her aunt like that. Especially since she hasn’t even mentioned what exactly it was she’d seen in her visions.This only spark an uncontrolled curiosity towards her, sensing the incident she saw had something to do with what was going on in there.Yet she cannot bring herself to ask it straight up, still understanding so little just from that premonition she received.This left her pondering once more, not knowing how to interpret or explain all those things that plagued her mind.So right now, all she could do was stare at her aunt Pen, while she scrub, bakes, and chatter tirelessly all at the same time, without even bothering to face h

Wicked lover Chapter 69 Fated accident
After finishing cleaning the attic, Selene took the chance to take a few minutes of rest, since she’d done all the chores given to him by the head-maid.Because of the recent conflict, there were now only three of them there taking care of the house. The head-maid, Ben, and her. She didn’t think that most of the maids working there were under Duncan’s father.She took a deep sigh, looking out into the circular window into the horizon, remembering the incident. Part of her felt sad for the young-alpha, but another side of was envying him.Selene was still staring outside, mop in her hand, while deep in thought when Duncan came in. This got the young-alpha’s face twisting in irritation.“Do you always need to intrude on my personal space?”Duncan roared, letting his rage take over.The walls shook as his voice echoed through the entire room.Caught by surprised, Selene jump in panic, causing her to tumble. Her mop hit the bucket on her feet, spilling the murky water in it, making her sl
Wicked lover Chapter 68 Prelude to mayhem
Duncan’s rage continued to rage growing inside of him, unable to calm his nerves from the scene a moment ago. Though he now sat on the table, being served by Selene, his face remained straight, eyes sharp, while staring upfront.“Everything good with you, alpha?”Ben’s face twitch with worry, an inexplainable fear creeping into him because of the young-alpha’s murderous expression.‘Was it because of the upcoming fight? Or perhaps it was because they didn’t call him to eat?’ These were the thoughts playing in Ben’s mind. Unable to understand the cause of his alpha’s mood.“Yeah, just swell.”Duncan snorts; it was clear his words was lace with sarcasm.In truth, he had this uncontrollable itch to snap Ben’s neck. He wanted to rip him apart, piece b
Wicked lover Chapter 67 Intigrating
Selene sat on the bed, her thoughts lingering on her head on things. With how things were going with her life, she didn’t know where to turn to or what to do next.Her aunt was missing; their house had those odd shadow figures lingering in them, and she was miles away from civilization.She felt so helpless, not knowing how long she’ll be allowed to stay in the pack this time. Her uncertainty stemmed from the fact that everyone there seems to have a problem with her, along with how Duncan reacted to her a while ago.The young-man’s demeanor confused her, shifting from good to bad in a second without a notice. It made her think if her situation would be the same if she went with Lucas instead.She stops pondering when she hears footsteps from the stairs; she rushed to greet whoever was going down to the cellar.“Hey Ben.”She waves the moment she saw the guy. He was wobbling, careful not to fall from the ladder as his legs were unbalanced.“Oh, Selene. I thought you were with the alpha
Wicked lover Chapter 66 Inciting the alpha
James Vondeers grumbled in his chair, his expression darkening with each passing moment. His gaze kept shifting from the clock then to the empty seat beside him.The alpha’s silence created this heavy tension in the room, as the others who were seated at the long table barely made any noise, avoiding even the slightest clink of their utensil.“I hope everything is to your liking, James?”Connor Sage, alpha of the Blue snow pack, was the one who gained the courage to break the silence through the room. He gave a sympathetic smile at the other alpha on the other side of the table, as it had been an hour, but he remained alone, barely touching the food they’d prepared.Duncan was nowhere to be found; even his beta, George, was absent on that occasion, though the alpha promised they’d arrive momentarily.This brought murmurs among the others gathered there, as they tried to make conversations to remove the awkwardness.“Alpha James, are you certain Duncan will be joining us today?”Valent
Wicked lover Chapter 65 Past resentment
Beta George struggled with each step he made, yet he persevered, continuing to move in painful strides. He needed to inform his alpha about this recent discovery, knowing full well it will affect the future of their pack.He was panting from the wound the young-alpha gave him, his blood gushing out, leaving a trail because it would not heal.A rustling from the nearby bushes made him stop; the waft of a familiar scent forced him to change his stance, crouching in preparation for a fight.“Come out, I know you’re there!”George shouts, gritting his teeth. It’s been years since someone manage to get past his detection.Though wounded, his senses remained as before, which meant the person who followed him was no doubt skilled. And from that, he already knew who it was, since there were only a few who’d managed to elude him.From the shadows, a tall, slender figure emerge, walking in such a graceful fashion and fluidity, it was like the person was gliding through the air.“You seem to be
Wicked lover Chapter 64 The link between them
Thankfully, Julieta and Ben were there to assist Duncan, as midway up the stairs, he lost any remaining strength he had, almost collapsing when his legs gave in.The two carefully help the young-alpha into his bed, while Selene followed in silence, afraid she might get in the way.“You sure you’re okay, alpha?”Ben asked after they’d put him in bed, seeing as Duncan’s breathing was slow and he could barely keep his eyes open.“We can still call your mother’s doctor. He hasn’t left town yet.”Julieta was tucking him in, patting his forehead to make sure nothing was wrong with him, as this wasn’t considered normal for them.“I’m fine! I just need to rest.”Duncan grumbled, turning to his side to make himself comfortable. Though he was weakened, it was actually from a sense of tiredness, nothing more.Though he didn’t want to admit it, avoiding to sound pathetic in front of them. Also, he wanted to understand why he ended up like that in the first place.Julieta and Ben looked at each ot
Wicked lover Chapter 63 Awakened
Selene, Julieta, and Ben hurried towards the door to open it when they saw Duncan walking for the entrance. They didn’t wait for him to knock, as Julieta unlocked the door the minute she got there.“Alpha!”Ben and the head-maid screamed in unison when Duncan stepped inside. Selene wanted to come closer, but ended up stopping in her tracks the moment she saw he had no clothes.“You’re bleeding!”She muttered unconsciously, before averting her gaze.Crimson liquid covered the young-alpha’s entire body. Some had dried up, but most of it remained glistening from being fresh.“The blood’s not mine.”Duncan huffed, heaving a sigh as he wiped some from his face.“Are you all right, alpha?”Ben frowned, swallowing hard when his gaze shifted outside.Most of the werewolves there were still unconscious, while some who withstood the young-alpha’s attack were now patching themselves up to the best they can because regenerating was impossible, since the wounds they received came from an alpha.“N

All they could do was stare out the window, watching Duncan break the key in front of the group. They all gasp, seeing this, but what got them worried more was how the nearby packs were already crouched for an attack.Selene nearly screamed in shock when Duncan got pounced, seeing blood and bodies splattering on the ground when the young-alpha retaliated.Her heart couldn’t take it, so she ended up backing away from the scene. She was catching her breath, unable to control her palpitations, as dread clawed on her.“Will he be okay?”She murmured to the two who remained staring out the window, tears swelling in her eyes when she caught the murderous gaze being thrown her way by the head maid.“Do not try that on me, girl! Your tears will not change the fact that you cause all this!”Julieta snarls, squinting her eyes at her in such a way it looked like she wanted to crush her with her gaze.Selene averted her eyes from them, looking down to her feet in utter shame and fear.“Julieta, s
Wicked lover Chapter 61 Pushing through
True to his words, the current alpha sent several guards to Duncan’s estate the next morning, when the young-man didn’t comply with his orders.The tension in the room was heavy, it was enough to create this breath-taking unease. Ben and Julieta kept pacing back and forth, peeking through the curtains to check on their surroundings on every side of the house.Duncan, on the other hand, remained standing in front of the large window facing the front of his mansion. He stood there like a guard, menacingly observing on the things happening outdoors.“Your father wasn’t kidding, alpha. There’s about a dozen pack outside.”Ben was gasping for air when he returned to his side.Duncan grit his teeth. His father was onto him, he was sure of that.Before, he wouldn’t have bothered with him. His old man’s reasoning last t
