The Lead to Follow

It was strange enough for Forrest to sniff out Christen's scent when the human herself was not present at the party. It was stranger for him to get the scent from another person. Moreover, it was far from faint, as it smelled quite recent.‘He must know where Christen is,’ was the only thing that went in Forrest’s mind as he tailed the guy, wanting to ask questions about his relationship with his ex-wife. Demand to see her, if need be.‘Forrest, where are you? I lost you for a second,’ came Kiara’s voice, directly in his head.‘I found a lead to Christen,’ he bluntly explained, to her surprise.'Wait, really? You found her?'‘No. I found a lead to her. Someone who must've been with her recently.’ Forrest raised a brow then, upon seeing the said lead walk out the doors. ‘And that someone is leaving the party.’'Leaving? Are you sure?'In a business party- or any sort of corporate event- it would fairly rude if a guest left before even the host would show themselves. If it were an emerg

Tailing the Lead

Forrest rushed through the dark night as quickly and quietly as he could, tailing his target. After he informed Kiara of the person who had Christen’s scent, he was both surprised and angered to learn exactly who this man was. ‘Surprised’ for he did not expect the man who held his ex-wife’s scent to be that disgusting man. ‘Angered’ for if Christen was with him, it was possible that this guy may have done something to her. Something that may break her even more, assuming if there was any more of her that can be broken…If he would dare even think it, the thought of Christen getting hurt worried him so. He may not have any right to have such feeling, given that he was the one who pushed her away, but it was because of that- because of him- that her life got worse. And she was made a target of a playboy. No… someone even worse, if this man caught Kiara’s attention in a negative perspective.‘Christen… She better be safe,’ he prayed.As he kept following his target, to Forrest’s confusio

To Meet the Boss

Forrest did not think his surprise would grow any further than it had. Getting a clue on Christen’s whereabouts- a lead to her, to be exact- was one matter. But for it to actually lead him to her whereabouts? And so soon?! No, more importantly…‘Why would Christen be in a bar of all places?’ Forrest wondered, as he looked around the room. Like back at the restaurant, though, no matter where he looked in the bar, he couldn’t find Christen anywhere. Her scent was in here, no doubt about that. But where was the human herself?“Can I help you, good sir?” Forrest turned to the voice that called out to him, where he saw an elderly human cleaning a glass at the counter. “Yes, I’m looking for someone,” he answered carefully. “Oh? Who exactly?”Forrest took a moment to think over his options. This man must be a bartender, for one thing. As such, he must know the names and faces of the people who work in this tavern. Likewise, there was a possibility that he would not tell him a word of Chri

The Price for Help

Out of all things Forrest had expected- they being a man of hidden wealth or power, surrounded by either riches, weapons, and/or women, while at the same time also having a very lazy deposition in some way- he did not expect the scent that left the room as soon as the bartender opened the door just a crack.“S-Sir. I brought along a guest,” he stuttered out.“A guest? I don’t think I remember an appointment having been made for today, do you?” a voice within had stated. “He had been incredibly insistent on seeing you. Or rather, see one of our regulars and employees.”“And what? You didn’t think about simply sending him away? A customer who is not here to buy anything is no customer at all. I thought you’d know that, Benjamin.”“Likewise, I think you’d know better than to keep said man waiting,” Forrest decided to speak up then, indirectly saving the bartender from whatever fate he would’ve gotten. “Also, perhaps you should at least ask your own employee who it is who is waiting to s

Engagement Revelation

Forrest raised a brow at the demand. His ex-fiance? Thief? “What are you talking about?” he questioned.“Playing stupid, are we? You can’t tell me your mate didn’t tell you about me,” Damien accused.The fact that he said ‘mate’ instead of ‘wife’ or ‘girlfriend’ or even ‘fiancé’ sent an alarm in Forrest’s head. “Are you talking about Kiara? Why would she know you?”“I believe I said it before, did I not?” Damien asked back. “Your mate is my fiancé.”The revelation took Forrest by surprise. “Your ex-fiance? What are you talking about?”The question made Damien sigh. “Oh, come now. Surely you didn’t think Kiara would stay waiting for you to fulfill your promise all these years, did you? Or at least, her father didn’t. How could he? For after all… You are nothing but a mere Beta. And yet, you think you had what it takes to receive the love and attention of an Alpha werewolf?”Forrest held back a grimace at the mockery. As he was a Beta werewolf- a werewolf ranked lower than an Alpha- he

Strength of a Beta

The shock Damien had over the news he heard regarding the cops that arrived got replaced by rage over how arrogant Forrest sounded.“You damn Beta bastard… What the hell did you do?!” he demanded.“Isn’t it obvious? I had my mate contact the agents and send them here for backup. And the police, as well,” Forrest calmly explained. “The ‘cops’ your boys speak of must be Kiara’s men. I did make it clear to contact those humans a little later. Seems that’s the right choice, if you have some werewolves hiding in here.”The explanation was really starting to piss Damien off, if he wasn’t already. How dare this Beta sound cocky in his presence? All because he got him by surprise! And he was going to pay.“You think a Beta like you has any right to stand against me? An Alpha! Don’t screw with me!” he shouted, getting up from his seat and shifted into his werewolf form.Or so he was about to shift, when a fist suddenly collided against his face, and sent him back down to his seat, and tumbled

Painful Find

Forrest stood in shock at what he was seeing. In this small, dimly lit room were Christen and the human male… lying on a bed. Rather, it was Christen who was on the bed. Bound with her hands tied above her head against the headrest, legs tied to either end of the bed by the ankles, a gag in her mouth, blindfold covering her eyes, and worst of all, completely naked and exposed before him, revealing an abundance of scars and bruises all over her trembling body.“Did you not hear me?! I asked who you-!” Forrest instantly glared at the person speaking in his presence- he whom was holding a small whip in his hand- silencing him in an instant. “Wait a second. Aren’t you-?!” Forrest didn’t give him the chance to finish his sentence, as he slammed his hand right into the human’s mouth, clamping in shut, as he shifted into his werewolf form.“Not even God will spare you from my wrath,” he growled, his voice becoming deeper than usual from the shift.The human’s eyes dilated upon witnessing his

Police Arrival

By the time the police arrived, Damien, his staff, and even the customers within were all detained by Kiara’s men. Well, most of the staff members were. As it would turn out, Christen was not the only person who was there against her will. Giving services to people they did not want to give, but were more or less forced to. As for the customers, some of them were nothing more than members of Damien’s werewolf group, who followed their soon-to-be-former future Alpha to the human world. As for the rest, just some humans they had recruited… into their mafia- the Night Howlers- a disguise that Damien had went with during his time in this world, second to owner of the bar and love hotel.Upon arrival, on Forrest’s orders, the werewolves had left the area, leaving the aftermath to him. There were some protests about needing to stay behind to assist their Alpha’s mate, to help ‘explain’ to the police what happened in the area, but with some convincing from Kiara, the wolves all dispersed in

A Meeting in the Hospital

One trip to the hospital later, Forrest found himself sitting in the hall, right by the doors leading to the emergency room, resting his head on his intertwined hands, elbow on his knees. He had seen Christen off in there, where the nurses sternly told him he was to remain outside, while they and the doctor got to work on helping her recover from her injuries. He had already thought so back in the vehicle, but thinking back to all those wounds Christen had on her, he couldn’t help but worry about it, and wonder one thing.How long was Christen forced to go through that pain?It was not just the pain; he recalled the box of drugs back in the room he found her in. It was not just the syringe that had a dosage used, for he noticed some bags seemed half-empty, and empty vials in the box. Vials that must have contained some of the drugs as well, going by his nose. And he highly doubted those were the only ones injected into her throughout the past few years. There was also the way Christe

Awakening

Beep... Beep…It was dark, cold and painful for Christen. She who felt so weak, she could hardly move a finger, much less her eyes.She could vividly recall what happened last. One of her violent, ruthless regulars came after a 'boring party', as he had put it, and wanted to relieve himself of the boredom on her. Both sexually and violently.Beep… Beep…She didn't want to go through either of those. Not the pain, nor the forced pleasure. But there was nothing she could do about it. This was, after all, a part of that deal she made with Damien, back when he stopped her from committing suicide, and sweet talked her into working for him. An act that made her hate herself even more. For had she not been so gullible as to easily believe in anything nice- if there was such a thing to start with- she would never have been in this situation.Beep… Beep…‘I don’t want to go through with this any more… But I have to,’ she thought. ‘This is the only way I can support him.’Beep… Beep…‘Him’… Had
