Sophia’s POV“Did you pack something important that was left in the car?” Miss Helen asked.“No, it was just a pretense that we were going on a trip together," Carter responded as we wolfed out through the unsteady ground.Miss Helen chuckled and complimented us, “Smart little runts.”‘That was all me!’ He boasted in my head, which I just grunted through the link.‘But I’ll share the glory with you,' he added, and Lia was all over the moon for it.‘Oh please. Just savor it all on your own!’ I retorted.We continued to run and run until our paws were sore. Miss Helen was leading the way.“Don’t forget to conceal yourselves.” She reminded us, and we immediately did.We passed through the woods linking Woodhill and the demilitarized zone. It was neither the long way nor the short cut. But Miss Helen said that it would be best if we went through here. So that Redburg wolves wouldn’t know reinforcements were coming. If ever there was a leak that allies were coming tomorrow morning,.“Would
Sophia’s POV“M-mom??” I unknowingly mumbled. All of them inside gasped. Especially dad. “Sophie!? What.. whyy? How on earth are you here!?”“Why did you bring a student, Helen!? Have you gone mad?!” Dame Xianth queried out of concern. It was obviously her voice, since I haven’t heard hers in a long time.“I’m also here though.” Carter didn’t even let them chill out first and added worry to the party.“Jacob!?” His parents slightly raised their voices, to which Miss Helen shushed them. Under normal circumstances, I would be amazed that Miss Helen could do such a thing, but all I could think about was asking about..“Dad! How’s momm??!” With my hand being all fidgety,.“She’s fine, honey; don’t worry. She is just sleeping. But your mom will surely pinch your ears once she’s awake.” Dad even managed to joke around. He knows I’m thinking about it the second I hear the news. That info and gestures of his made me relax. I could finally breathe. For at least five seconds because we still ne
Sophia’s POV‘What do you mean, not a wolf?’ I humbly asked.‘Then what is it? A beast?’ Miss Helen queried.As we awaited Sir Payne’s answers, the topic at hand showed up on its own.. Feet??‘I thought you said it wasn’t a wolf?’ Uncle Frank interrogated.‘It.. really.. isn’t..’ He slowly stated as if processing his own judgment.My eyes glanced at the man. It is for sure a man, since his glory is dangling in between his legs. Yep, he’s naked.Carter growled at me and then at the poor man. ‘Stop staring at him Addison or else I’ll snap his neck in two.’Concerned for the innocent man, I instantly looked away. But even that gesture frustrates Carter. He snarled and glared at him. The uninvited guest flinched and placed his hand forward as if trying to calm down a rabid dog.‘He’s.. really obviously not a wolf.’ Aunt Mia, Miss Helen, and even Dame Xianth simultaneously said something in that context.‘Yeah. No wolf would ever try that on a jealous male.’ Sir Payne chuckled.‘Miss Hele
Sophia’s POVBased on what Aunt Mia said, apparently we’re near the woods that connect Bloodbury and the demilitarized zone. After Dame Xianth dropped those words on us, Carter and I did not utter a single word.How could we? And what will we say? I was afraid to make some mistakes and potentially offend her, so I just kept quiet. Besides, if it were me, I would rather accept silence than comfort.Maybe that was also what Carter thought, since he just nodded after what the Dame said. But.. We were both surprised. Who wouldn’t be?! They managed to suppress Dame Xianth!The demilitarized zone is a wide piece of land. It is filled with ruins from the wars of the past. And when I say past, it literally means wayyy back in the past. The ancient times.There are some old writings here that I surprisingly understand. At least most of them, even though this is the first time I came here. It was mostly just about the basic knowledge everyone knows. No violence or war should commence here.As w
Jacob’s POVWe pressed on, as we knew that every fucking second counted. The pursuers’ howling sparked the urgency that all of us felt as we desperately tried to widen the gap between them.“They are coming,” Alpha Daniel and his father said at the same time.The second we heard that, everyone ran as fast as we could. As if our lives depended on it. That may actually be true since even if we are all strong in our own ways, if we are totally outnumbered by a huge gap, then.. Every one of us could die.‘Let me swap with you!’ Luke growled, and I let him without second thought. I felt Lia swapped places with Addison too, since she was way too exhausted today. The stess must be building up and eating her energy.It is now almost dawn, and the woods are in sight. Once we entered, I felt that unsettling feeling again. But since I encountered it during our mock mission, I was not as surprised as Addison.The adults also seemed to know about how Bloodbury’s forest and woods were alive. Sir Pa
Jacob’s POV“Jacob. Calm down. Pace your breathing! If you cannot control your emotions, you’ll lose her.. and fast.” Dad shifted back and talked behind me. At a distance where it is out of my reach.He knew me well. He knew I would try to claw him in this type of situation, even if he’s my father. But.. I did as he told me.Luke was also doing his best to make me calm down. For every time I did, I’d eventually lose my cool once again. He set aside reprimanding me, but he told me that he'd surely make time for that once Sophia’s fine. And I know she’ll be fine.. She will.‘Lia.. Sophia! Please..’ Luke softly called, and we heard small moans from her. It was supposed to be a good sign, but then she shifted back to her human form. As a sign of her weakening state. Just like her asleep mother.Miss Helen handed me the mission back, and I instantly knew what to do. Opening the zipper, I grabbed some healing tonics and let her drink them. At the same time, I released my pheromones.The adu
Jacob’s POV Another three days have gone by, and she's still asleep. Sophia’s mother was awake just this morning; that is why I left her under their care. And.. for them to bond together. They finally dismissed me the day after I woke up. That's why I’m out here training in Bloodbury’s outdoor gym. ‘You have no idea what you are doing, are you?’ Her voice echoed in my head. That time when I teased her by scraping off the leather of the punching bag while she was sweeping the floor. Oddly enough, her question best fits what I am currently feeling. I really have no clue. Should I just pretend that nothing happened and continue this kind of relationship with her? Or.. Confront her and end all of this? Potentially losing her for good.. ‘Now you’re scared of her leaving you? Isn’t that what you’ve always wanted Jacob?’ Luke pointed out. ‘Shut up. I’m not in a mood to argue with you right now.’ ‘Or is it your pride? You want to be the one who leaves her alone?’ ‘I SAID SHUT UP!’
Sophia’s POV I was running into some familiar woods with a tiny hand in mine. I glanced in its direction and saw a child. Her face was a bit blurry, but I knew it was a girl. “Sophia, I’m scared.” Her hand trembled as we kept on running away from someone. Or something. I want to wolf out so that we can run fast, but I surprisingly cannot. So, we have no other choice but to keep on trudging with our small and shaky feet. I sensed a whole group of foreign presences. Someone that I’m not familiar with. They are now closing in. I stood my ground and waited for them as I held the young girl’s shoulders. “Run. Run as fast as you can! Far away from here!” “No! I will not leave you!” She was stubborn and scared, but brave. We couldn’t possibly outrun them. They are obviously some rogues, and we’re still kids! Three of them finally arrived whilst we were arguing. “Ooh look who we have here.” One male wolf smirked. “Get away from us! We are near Blood Moon Pack!” I threatened, and I w
(NSFW content) Jhoanna’s POV “Jhoanna,” Hans sweetly coaxed as he held my hand and guided me to his room. “I can hear your heart, you know..” I gulped and looked around. “Is it okay for me to be here?” “What are you talking about? You’re Midnight’s future Luna and it’s not like it is your first time here.” He paused and glanced over his shoulder. “Don’t worry, my love. I wouldn’t do anything you wouldn’t want to.” “I know. I’m just.. scared.” He darkly chuckled, and that made me even more concerned, but at the same time, I’m honestly anticipating what he’ll do. Especially when he grinned, “You have all the reason to.” We stopped in front of one door, and he pushed it open. Then, his intoxicating scent greeted us. Greeted me. Didn’t even notice that I grasped his hands too hard until he told me, “Love? Are you okay?” I nodded as he pulled me into his arms. Then he moved backwards until he laid down on the bed, dragging me on top of him. He didn’t say anything but just hugged m
Jhoanna’s POV“Where?” My mate quickly asked as he gave me one peck before looking in my eyes for answers. Held his hand and ran back to where the others were. I had asked mom to teleport us to the demilitarized zone so that I could preserve my powers. She was surprised but didn’t ask further as she chanted and snapped her fingers twice. By the time we opened our eyes, we were at the ancient ruins of the demilitarized zone.Then.. We saw them. The man and grandmama, as she wanted me to call her that. It was quite a groteseque scene, actually.She broke his limbs from all places, full of wrath. Like it was something personal. Then, she must’ve felt some presence as she glared at us in hostility. But softened her gaze once saw it was only me and Hans.“Hi dearest! Didn’t want you to witness your grandmama being this mean. Sorry ‘bout this.” She spoke in such a light and bright tone that if I ever shared this with someone and they saw her in person, they wouldn’t believe that Naia played
Hans’ POV The moment Jhoanna told me about Hannah, I instantly wolfed out mid-game. Rio immediately understood as he took over as vice captain and let someone else sub in my stead. Could go over to the men’s volleyball team since Samuel’s their captain, but I don’t have time right now, so I just mind-linked him while I’m sprinting my way to her. ‘Hannah’s in pain again. I’m gonna go there now.’ ‘I’m coming.’ It was the only word Samuel replied. Tried to contact my mate, but she wasn’t responding until I could feel her slowly slipping away after feeling her agony through the bond. That’s when I truly panic and hasten my pace. The moment I arrived, everyone who knew me was beyond shocked. They know I had an important game, and yet I’m here. Just quickly passed by them, even when some were asking what on earth I was doing here. Didn’t even have the luxury of pleasantries to deal with them as I sprinted towards where Jhoanna is. Where her scent lingers the most. It was in one of t
Jhoanna’s POVOur friends and even my brother let out a loud and overacting gasp when Hans told them I’m his mate. If only we could record their reactions. Samuel was terrified, while Rio was the happiest. The rest only laughed at my brother’s frozen state.Dad reprimanded the life out of me for his car when I returned to Blood Moon during one weekend. Mom just giggled about it. She was quite pleased and, well, ultimately teased me regarding the ‘Hans is my mate’ thing and dad, well, dad is being dad.“How dare he be mates with my daughter!?” He growled. His hands formed into a fist.“My Alpha..” Mom cooed. “Do they have a choice?”“He’s been fighting with Jhoanna ever since!”“We’ve been at that phase too. Besides, even if they’ve been at it for years, your reason is even deeper than their fights. You know that, right? Yet, here we are..”Dad clicked her tongue and turned away. Mom looked at me and winked, like telling me that she had won. Well, she always wins the arguments with dad
Jhoanna’s POV“Bye Mom. Dad.” Samuel and I said as we hugged them both.“Take care and have fun, both of you,” Mom pouted. Still sulking about the fact that it’s unfair for her to have her son spend time at the dormitories for two years. She can really be petty at times.I drove dad’s car. Fast. So fast that even Samuel is now praying to the Moon Goddess.“My goodness, Jhoanna! Could you please slow the fuck down!? We are even a week early!” He groused. I only shrugged and revved the engine two times faster. He cussed and cussed as I laughed. We are now nearing the University’s gate.Until I saw one car driving in the opposite direction. I tried to slow down, and the car did too, but it was too late. We crashed into each other.Oh, no one was hurt, alright.EXCEPT FOR ME WHEN THIS NEWS REACHES DAD.“Dad will literally kill me.” I overdramatically mumbled as I hopped down the car and ran in front to see the damage. My hands automatically went to my mouth as I loudly gasped. Samuel grun
Jhoanna’s POV A peaceful and relaxing afternoon, only to be ruined by one Hans Martin. The man–no, boy, was the correct term as he was two years younger than me, seems to love to annoy the life out of me. As do I to him. Though, my little brother always teased me than he is much more mature than I ever was. Which is, of course, not true! Arching my brow, I asked, “And why pray, tell, are you here?” He groaned the moment our eyes met. “If I knew you were here, would rather come in a little later..” He grumbled to which Dad growled. Hans apologized although he clearly seems to be unapologetic enough. “This is my pack, Hans. Where else would I be?” I shot back. In the corner of my eye, saw Samuel smirking as if he knew we are starting yet another one of our fights. “In your room? Or the training grounds? Practicing so that for once you could beat me?” “ENOUGH!” My father roared. “I’m very much aware of your skirmish with my daughter but I would appreciate it if you won’t do it h
Sophia’s POV“Y-you’re insane,” I mumbled, and he smirked. “Yeah, only for you.”Sucking in a sharp breath, I tried to say something, but this man, this freaking man!PLACED HIS THUMB OVER MY LIP!That very same thumb! Just to stop me from speaking..“Don’t..” he muttered. “Don’t say anything else, Sophia.”As if he read my mind that I’m about to say something along the lines of us being together. I was stunned; even that word itself might be an understatement. Still cannot get over the fact that his thumb is over my lips with his index finger holding my chin to keep me from looking away. “You already did it, and I cannot have you tell me first the second time around, baby..” He slowly leaned in, never breaking any eye contact. “I love you, Sophia Addison.”Then our noses touched. Could feel his lips pressing, but I could not feel it entirely. His thumb was still in between.I saw the corner of his eyes beamed, seeing me so flustered. Thus, he pulled away. And before I could ask or
Sophia’s POV“I will kill him!” I growled and rose from my seat. Made big steps to get to where he was. “Hey stoneface!”He lifted his head from his arms as he was taking a nap. He lazily yawned and looked at me. “Yes, baby?”I snorted and glared at him, “Did you just burn my rejection letter meant for Aunt Ma and Uncle Frank!?”“I’m the one you are rejecting, right? So I have the right to deny your rejection, my baby.”“Stop calling me that! Aside from it’s so fucking cringy, I’m not yours!” I roared and placed both of my hands in his seat.“You’re mine, Sophia. You’re my mate.” He seriously stated as he stared at me with his pitch black eyes. I was speechless and was about to back out. But he pulled my waist with his right hand and threw his table away with his free hand. As if switching places. I ultimately landed on his lap. Tried to get away, but he only tightened his grip on my waist. This fucking bastard!Henry shielded himself because he almost made contact with the table. He
Sophia’s POV“That asshole!” Jhoanna punched the nearest wall the moment she came inside our pack mansion.“Jhoanna!” I slightly raised my voice with a warning tone.She looked at me and gasped. The irritation and fury in her eyes instantly gone, “Sorry, mom. It’s just.. just.. Ugh! That Hans, I swear!”She gave me one quick kiss on the cheek before storming into her room. Samuel, who, a moment later, came after her, greeted me with a warm voice. “Hey, mom.”He gave me a half hug and kissed my cheek. My head moved a little bit sideways, motioning to his sister, “What happened to that one?”He smirked and slightly tilted his head down with a little shake. “The usual Hans and Jhoanna mayhem.”I sighed. Seasons came and went. And just like that, seven years had gone by. There were problems here and there, sure, but we always managed to solve them all. But not Jhoanna and Hans’ unending fights.Fights.A strong word, indeed. Only, that’s literally what's happening. We couldn’t even call i
