Maridelle have cold heavy chains around her body as if she's a maximum-level criminal. Her hands are placed around her back.She settled her eyes on the environs the police car is passing. No one, not Alpha Lachlan nor her Aunt Lily is there with her. She is only with Nyx that sat before her.“All the glum you put into your orbs will never atone your sins,” Nyx said with full contempt. “I wish Alpha Lachlan is just wrong on confirming you are his mate. You know what, Mari? You're a disgust. The Caruso pack will never be proud of having you as their Alpha female.”A sharp pang pierces on Maridelle's heart. She grasped fully the words Nyx uttered to her. Without looking at her she said, “What's next after this?”“You'll be sentenced of course. After that, we will go back to our own lives. And you...you will suffer in prison. Alpha Lachlan will surely get into his mind and consider you nonentity. He will evKaugnay na kabanata
Blood Awakening (31) XXXI: Facing The Nemesis
(31) XXXI: Facing The Nemesis Viller stopped Jek before they could enter Hodor's chamber. Maridelle lay asleep on his shoulder. “You did something back there. What was it?” Jek answered, “I played a little game. You know got my hallucination power on Nyx. I had this intel that she really hated that bitch you are carrying. I made her saw that she's happy being saved.” Jek explained with excitement. He even got his hand gestures. “She'll be teased or much amusing, angry. I really like your mindset, Jek.” Viller winked at him. “Now, get that door, open. Hodor will be much happy with this gift.” In just a moment the door swung open. Like before, the chamber is gracefully embraced by pitch black. They took few steps forward, groping their way in. “I still don't like this room. If only I'll put the lights myself,” Viller grumpily said. It has always been a pitch-black. He couldn't remember any moment in his entire life that he saw how the chamber look li
Blood Awakening (32) XXXII: I feel Her Pain
(32) XXXII: I feel Her Pain Alpha Lachlan rushed to see Nyx who sat leaning herself on the headboard of the hospital bed. He was discussing with Alpha Grego on how to help Maridelle out of the case when they were apprised on the attack done to them. Amari, Lily, and Sebastian are with him; they wanted to get the rest of the news too.“I came here as soon as I heard what happened.” Worries tinged on his voice.“Your mate is a bitch!” Nyx brawled taking into consideration Maridelle's happy face on the escape.“I know you hate her, Nyx, but you don't have to call her that.” Lachlan defended Maridelle.Nyx averted her eyes and landed it on the window situated on the left side of the room. “You don't know what happened. Marco, I'm sure he is not telling you the details. He's definitely tight-lipped because of the trauma.” Tears started to dawn on her eyes. “You aren't here to check if I'm okay, right twin? You want to ask me w
Blood Awakening (33) XXXIII: Picture
(33) XXXIII: Picture Their trip lasted for few hours. The sun had begun to plunge in the western horizon when they were able to park in front of a small cabin. It's entirely made of wood. Some wild vines climbed on the roof; brown dried leaves had scattered themselves around the vicinity. Some are catched by the windowsills. A cold wind blew towards them.“Oh, this place brings a lot of good memories. Let's get inside.”Both of them follow Lily towards the porch. The entrance is dirty. There's no sign of dwelling from the old rusty door knob to the opaque window pane. The whole place has evidently not been taken care of for a long time.“Pretty old...” Sebastian commented.A smile formed on her face. “Yes. And it has been many years passed since the last time someone used the cabin.” Lily struggles opening the door. “Just a minute, the doorknob won't budge...oh, there it is. Come inside.”Sebastian roamed his e
Blood Awakening (34) XXXIV: Sneaking Inside the Devil's Lair
(34) XXXIV: Sneaking Inside the Devil's LairSebastian tilted his neck to and fro, sidewards. He traverse along the long roads just to get here. He is certainly tired. But the efforts are well-compensated as he faced the domain he left many decades ago. It is in this place that he first behold the darkness his race is able to deliver to anyone.The palace is located on a mountaintop; protected in by huge trees whose foliage conceals the entirety of the structure. Light isn't sufficient in some areas; vampires, especially those who weren't able to accept the pact had never adjusted their eyes to excessive lightning; and so they preferred darkness.“Self, I welcome you back here.” The smile on his face is bitter and embossed with pure hatred and vengeance. “I'll reclaim what's mine. In the right time. For now I'll take my lifeline,” he muttered to himself certain that the plans he has designed will meet its realization soon.Viller is
Blood Awakening (35) XXXV: From Afar
(35) XXXV: From Afar Alpha Lachlan had confided himself behind a lush undergrowth. He was watching the guards keeping watch for outsiders. He remained there for few hours waiting for Sebastian to emerge from the dungeon he entered awhile. Sebastian doesn't know not even notice that he was following him. Before the current situation Lachlan was sensing that Sebastian was up to something—that he doesn't want to associate himself with him or Lily in saving Maridelle; he have another plan. It was confirmed when he saw Sebastian has secretly left the cabin. Lachlan decide to keep a tail on him; he has been following his tracks. He knows very well that Sebastian might know where Maridelle is. And his conclusion did not fail him. Sebastian brought him to the stronghold of vampires—the race he loathed. Lachlan was perplexed why Sebastian went here; he remembered Sebastian told them that he has no group to belong to. But why is he here? However, Lach
Blood Awakening (36) XXXVI: Heartfelt
(36) XXXVI: HeartfeltTwinges on his leg was the thing that had awoken Lachlan. All he saw was a small room when he opened his eyes. He rose from the bed and checked his leg. A bandage was secured around the wound. “Finally you are awake, Alpha,” greeted by an old woman on her mid-fifties. She is carrying a bowl with water in it.“Who are you? How did I get here? Why did you call me Alpha?” His continuous queries rendered the old woman a smile on her face.She put the bowl beside him. “Save your questions, Alpha. You're going to exhaust yourself.” She reached for a towel and soaked it in the water-filled bowl. “We found you under a big tree. You are wounded and...” the old woman felt the hot blood rushed onto her cheeks. “...and naked.”Alpha Lachlan diverted his gaze. He felt the hot blood rushing on his cheeks as well. It's not that his body ashames him, it is just someone saw him naked. When he had recovered from the e
Blood Awakening (37) XXXVII: After Her
(37) XXXVII: After Her“Run faster, Alpha! Yehey!” she demanded for a faster speed. Christie has been wearing a beaming smile since Lachlan finally shifted for her to ride on his wolf.Few weeks had passed before he is able to use his leg without feeling pain. His healing could be much faster if he had marked Maridelle and have her by his side so that their mate bond could help him heal his wound. Lachlan neglected such notion. It is true that to mark her is beneficial, however, the thought of her puts a pang in his heart. Up until this time he haven't forgive himself and forgotten the sins he did to her. For now, he focuses on granting the promise he gave to Christie: to ride on his wolf.The moment he shifted, it automatically drawn an expression of awe to the young child and her parents. Her first words were a compliment to his brown big wolf, X. Her parents were speechless as it is their first time to see an Alpha shift in front of them.“Can
Blood Awakening (38) XXXVlll: Watching From Afar
(38) XXXVlll: Watching From AfarAlpha Lachlan hid himself behind the shadows of nearby establishments. He is in the dark watching how Maridelle smiled to Sebastian. They are sitting in front of each other eating inside a restaurant just few meters away from him. They conversed as if no one is watching them; as if their worlds seemed to stop spinning and everything in the background fades; as if they are not on the run. Well, with their disguise no one would suspect that one of them is wanted.“That should have been me,” Lachlan whispered to himself. Again, regret creeps into him. He is all to blame.Lachlan enviously waited for them to finish their dinner. He had endured the misery seeing her with another guy. He is now more determined to have his mate back.He saw Sebastian and Maridelle exiting the restaurant. Alpha Lachlan followed them towards the inn they have been staying. It angered him when he behold that they only took a room for themselves.“Is th
