last update Last Updated: 2024-08-12 00:38:48

Julieta arrives only minutes after her alpha’s summons. That was why she was in deep surprise at the sight of his master.

The young alpha sat outside the hut, embracing himself, all the while mumbling something. His gaze, though sharp, had this glint of uncertainty and worry.

Julieta’s frown deepened, noticing this. It was so unlike the youngster to be so pre-occupied to the point he didn’t see her parking nearby. Curious, she gets out of the car without saying a word, hurrying towards the young man.

It was only when Duncan sensed the head maid that his expression immediately changed, returning to that emotionless and domineering look.

“What took you so long?”

He grumbled, throwing sharp glances at the woman.

Julieta was keen to bow to show her respect and submission.

“Apologies, alpha, I got tangled up with an earlier task.”

She states, reminding the youngster of his previous command to her.

Duncan let out a deep and disgruntled sigh, lips pursing to keep his annoyance at bay. He cou

    Selene was woken by the head maid and, after being given her clothes, was immediately escorted out of the hut, straight to the woman’s car. Like before, she obediently followed, but her eyes wandered, searching for Duncan the minute they got out.A pang of sadness sunk into her chest when the man was nowhere to be found. There was this odd sense of loneliness and yearning in her, wanting to at least catch a glimpse of the young alpha.A part of her wanted to comfort him. After hearing about his woes and anger, she began to understand the reason behind the alpha’s demeanor.Of course, she couldn’t voice this out with the fear of being questioned by the head maid. So though it pained her, she remained silent, reminding herself she had no place or right to ask.The remaining drive back to Silent Ridge peak was eerily quiet, with Selene keeping her head low, unable to say anything, while Julieta stayed with a poker face the entire time, her anger visible underneath her composed and stoned

    Selene’s feet move on its own. In a trance, she followed those inaudible voices down that damp, dark staircase.Though her eyes couldn’t see anything, her mind distinguished the surroundings, like a third sight, allowing her to walk without a problem.A faint purple light glowed at the end of the stairs, giving this odd creeping sensation onto her skin. She got goosebumps with each step she draws closer.It’s as if she was stuck in a dream, screaming for help, aware but unable to do anything. Tears and sweat streamed down her face as terror crawled at her.No matter what she did, she couldn’t fight off the pull of those whispers, so helpless that she couldn’t even let out a word.As she got closer to the end of the steps, the voices became clearer, louder, and the light throb, letting out an eerie vibrating sound.When she finally reached the bottom, her fears and worries were replaced by curiosity and confusion, seeing the large empty room. The only thing odd there is the weird carvi

    “Idiots! I leave for a few days and this is what I return to.”Alpha James roared, the sound of his fist slamming on the table echoing throughout the entire hall.But Duncan kept his straight face, holding on to the emotions that were trying to escape him. There was anger, fear, and anxiety all brewing inside of him at that moment. Yet, he remained steadfast to hide all of it from his father.Alpha James Vondeer’s expression twisted so much he looked like he was shifting into his werewolf form. The sound of his fist slamming on the table echoed through the halls, causing all the others who were present to tremble in fear.“We don’t know what happened, alpha.”One of the beta muttered, noticing how their leader’s face continued to turn red from the silence.“Fools!”A deafening howl came out from alpha James, making a lot of them flinch. Yet Duncan remained stoic, unfazed by all the commotion. That was why the elder’s brows twitch upon seeing his emotionless expression.“And you! What w

    There was this odd sense in Selene’s chest all throughout the day, making her nervous. Though she couldn’t grasp what it was exactly that was causing it.Deep in thought, while walking through their school’s corridor, she hardly took notice of the shouts behind her, until she felt a strong arm holding on to her shoulders.That brought her back to her senses, immediately making her eyes widened from the unsuspecting touch.“Lucas.”She blurted out, surprised to see the fellow with his group following close.“Hey, Selene, is everything okay with you?”Lucas’s brows furrowed, though he had a smile on his face. Worry can be seen etched all over it.Selene avoided his gaze, tucking a piece of hair to her ear while she bit her lip from embarrassment. It’s been so long since the last time she’d space out, she found it awkward.“Yes, I just feel weird somehow.”She swallowed hard, still having that odd dread crawling into her.This made Luca’s expression straighten, as he grabbed hold of Sele

    “Alpha, can we take a rest? We’ve been running around the entire town for days now.”Ben grumbled. His phasing slowed, no longer having the energy or strength to keep up with Duncan.The young beta was a few meters behind, but didn’t bother to speed up, as he was losing air, nearly reaching his limit.“Don’t ask, just keep going.”Dunca says, increasing his strides as they continued on. He was scared he’d get consumed by the turmoil inside of him the moment he stops.“I don’t understand how we’re going to find the culprit by doing this?”Ben, no longer wanting to continue, was now thinking of ways to escape.“Just stop whining and keep up.”Duncan grumbled.It’s true they weren’t going to catch anyone with what they were doing, but he didn’t care. Because his real reason for aimlessly moving is because he wanted to remove the heat, adrenaline, and tension he had inside.He thought he’d be okay if he tire himself out, as he had done it before, but this was not the case now, as each tim

    Weeks have passed since the incident, yet the memory of the clash between Duncan and Lucas’ group. The sight of blood, gash, and claws swiping sent chills up Selene’s spine. It reminded her of a premonition she had long ago.“You still shaken up after what happened?”Lucas gave her a gentle nudge, noticing how she was spacing out while trembling in that warm breeze.They were currently walking through the woods, with Lucas and Selene being in front, while the others stayed a few feet away from them.Selene forced a smile, trying to hide her concern.“I didn’t think Duncan would do that.”She swallowed hard, remembering the blood thirst in the young man’s eyes. Throughout her stay with them, she’d seen him angry, but never like that, which made her wonder what could have been the cause of it.Though there was certainly fear in her, it kept getting overpowered by a lingering sense of worry and longing. She couldn’t understand why’d she feel that way, especially since she knew they didn’

    Though they were already at the mansion, Duncan’s rage would not subside. The itching of his teeth and claw remained, needing to dig into flesh, particularly Lucas’.If it wasn’t for Ben, he would have gone full on feral on the other alpha, having that raging need to kill. It was only when his beta intervened and received the brunt of his anger did he finally returned to his senses.“Sorry about that, Ben.”He murmured, his eyes traversing the large gash stemming from his beta’s right shoulder, going all the way down to his left hip. The slash was deep, fresh, and bleeding, unable to heal because he was the one who made it. Even underneath the bandage covering it, the trail and size of the wound were visible.“It’s alright alpha. The doctor said I should be okay in a week or so.”Ben wince with each word, yet he still forced a smile.“I don’t know what came over me. I… I just lost control.”Duncan palmed his face, wiping the sweat that covered it. He couldn’t understand why he went all

    The stillness of the house and the silence that came with it only made Duncan’s mind go into a frenzy. His body aching, itching, and twitching from the turmoil within him. A part of him still resisted, thanks to the last words of his beta Ben, but this was not enough to stop the unrest inside of him.His hands, inkling to touch, his lips, craving for affection, his skin, needing warmth from another, and his manhood ached to be caressed, licked, and dipped into a female’s slippery crevice.His head was basically floating at the time. As he walked down the stairs, memories of those carnal feelings rushed through him.Duncan was panting from all the images flashing through his mind, along with echoes of familiar moans, whimpers, and screams of ecstasy.He was losing balance from the feverish heat consuming him, his vision blurred, and his face covered with streams of sweat. And all of this w

    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

    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

    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

    Selene continued to mutter to herself, telling her own subconscious that her decision was right. But in truth, it was solely because of her own desires, wanting to remain with the young-man.A part of her longed to stay close the Duncan, afraid to separate from him. Though she could not explain the reason for it, she still went through with choosing him.In all senses, Lucas was the better choice, considering he’d been kind and protective of her. But for once, she wanted to follow herself, no matter how unreasonable it was, to the point it defied her own logic.Though she didn’t want to argue with herself, right now, she felt so small and uncertain, while walking behind Duncan and his father. She kept her head low, not knowing what else to do as he absorbed every detail of their heating exchange.“What the hell were you thinking?”Alpha James gritted his teeth to stop his voice from getting louder. Yet, his rage can be felt through each word even beneath his steady composure.They wer

    Selene breath a sigh of relief, relaxing as he looked up at Lucas who stood in front of her, defending her from the contemptuous gaze of the elders. His shadow covered her like a protective blanket, giving her assurance.The young alpha growled at those around him, silencing the congregation and making them look away.“I think we’ve scared her enough. It’s obvious she doesn’t know anything, so I think it’s better if we leave her alone.”Lucas’ tone was direct, low, and serious.The elders turned to one another, giving each other meaningful glances, before nodding in agreement, like the exchange was how they talked.“Still, we can’t make the same mistake as before.”The female elder muttered, heaving a deep sigh as she looks at them.“I suggest we put the girl back under one of the main pack’s supervision.”The elder with a long beard continued, a smirk forming underneath those long, silvery white facial hair.“Agreed.”The one sitting in the middle seconded the notion, causing another

    From her aunt’s house, to Duncan’s mansion, now into the larger estate of the Vondeer’s, Selene hadn’t had the time to get her bearings, leaving her confused and nervous while standing in front of an entire room full of people.All she could do was swallow hard to calm her nerves, wanting to keep herself still as she continued to tremble in place. She felt so small and vulnerable, surrounded by a group that gave her sharp and condescending gaze.The only solace she had was the two familiar faces standing in front of her. Lucas had this warm and confident smile, while Duncan gave her a straight but assuring look.Both young-men stood at a low stage, where several of the elders were, along with three individuals who exhibited an immense presence of confidence and authority through the entire room, overshadowing the others.“So this is the girl. Where’s her aunt? Why isn’t she with us?”Finally, one of the elders spoke, throwing a frown at Selene’s way while brushing the tip of his beard

    Julieta was at Duncan’s face the minute he emerged from the bushes, hardly noticing his appearance or the person on his shoulders.“Alpha, where have you been?”Julieta’s voice came out louder, but she did not care, since right now there was only one thing that she wanted to do.Yet Duncan was unfazed, only walking passed the head-maid, straight for the mansion.“I came here as fast as I can.”He muttered once they were inside, as the female remained right behind him.Only then did Julieta notice the person he was carrying on his shoulder, as the girl couldn’t stop wriggling from his hold.“What’s she doing here?”Julieta’s already twisted face became more wrinkled, along with becoming beet red at the sight of Selene’s flush cheeks.“Not now, Julieta.”Duncan waved her off before putting Selene down. He then pointed her to the stairs going to the lower floor to her room.Flabbergasted and filled with shame, the woman didn’t argue and just scurried away with her head down, embracing he

    Duncan sat on the bed with a wrinkled face, groaning in annoyance because of the sunlight coming from the gap between the curtains that woke him up.He’d lost track of time, being so drowned in that carnality that he shared with Selene, he didn’t think he could experience such satisfaction in his life. Even his first could not compare to what he had.The memory of last night brought a grin to his face, recollecting the number of times he ravage her. Just thinking about it made him hard again, but then he remembered how many times Selene fainted during the entire course of their intimacy.It seems the woman still couldn’t handle him, since she was only a changeling.
