I checked my watch to see that it is already 1:58 am. Only two minutes left and I am out of here. My apartment is in walking distance so I’ll be fine going home without any vehicle. Putting on my hoodie over my body, I look at the mirror looking decent with my pants on. Better.
I took my phone from my pocket and started dialing someone’s number, I heard the dial tone, waiting for the other line to answer.
“Hello?”
“Good morning nurse Gwen. Am I disturbing your sleep?” I mentally smacked my forehead. I forgot that it’s still bedtime.
“Good morning too Azrael. No actually not all. I am attending your father at the moment and you’re calling at the right time.”
I sighed.
“How is he?”
“He just had another manic episode. He keeps saying ‘Is Selene home?’ ‘I must see her!’. He gets really worked up and we can’t do anything but to shot him with mood stabilizers. But don’t worry, he is going to be fine.”
He doesn’t sound fine at all. Seems like my dad’s condition is getting worse day by day. He developed it when my mom abandoned us when I was little, barely even walking. I despised my mom so much for leaving my dad. I never got to meet her. I may not know her reasons but she could have at least tell my dad about it.
“Okay. Thank you so much for taking care of him nurse Gwen.”
“You’re very welcome.”
“How about the bills?”
“As much as I want to tell you to not get pressured, I just can’t lie to you. It is exceeding Az. I know you’re trying your best to pay but the medications got so pricey because of the stock problems. Don’t get upset though. I’ll try to cover your expenses as much as I can.”
“What? No! I am in so much debt from you already. You’re such a life saver and I cannot thank you enough. But I can pay for it. I’ll work overtime.”
“Calm down Az. It’s okay. Wait I gotta go. The doctor is calling me. Talk to you soon bye!”
And with that, she ended the call. I have a lot of bills to pay.
“Hey it’s time to go.”
Cris approached me with that usual smile. I smiled back and got my bag, swung it across my shoulders. We walked side by side to the exit of the bar as we also bid a few goodbyes to our co-workers.
“I’ll take you home” he offered
He got his car keys and went straight to his car. He stopped his tracks noticing how I did not move an inch.
“No Cris I’m fine. I’m gonna walk home.” I smiled
“There is no way you’re going home at a time like this!” he basically yelled softly at me. Not offensive though.
“It’s not like it’s my first time Cris. I’ll be fine don’t worry. Besides, with all the walking, I’ll have enough time to think about your ‘offer’.”
He sighed out of frustration and probably defeat.
“Alright. Just be careful.”
“Yeah I will. Now go home or your mom will be worried.”
He nodded and hesitantly walked towards his car, but went in anyway. With the last wave of goodbye, he started the engine and drove away. I watched as his car got smaller and smaller until it’s out of my sight.
I started walking to the direction of my apartment. It was cold and windy but at least I got my hoodie on. As I walk, I can feel something unusual. Feel like someone is following me. My hands found their way to my pockets and finally got my pocket knife. I swiftly got to open it as I quicken up my pace. I can hear loud footsteps behind me that seems like their trying to keep up with me. This is bad. I started to run as fast as I can. Hearing them running too scared me to death. My apartment is already in sight as it drove me to run even faster. I can make it. My heart is pounding against my chest as fear started to overpower me, almost losing my speed.
“Hurry. The Alpha wants her.”
One of them said. Alpha?
I was about to reach for the door when I feel a hard blow hit the back of my head. And with that, darkness consumed me.
***
I woke up with a painful feeling. Cold liquid come running down from my head. I got my hand to touch it and winced from the excruciating pain. With my hand already in front of me, I see blood in it. That’s when I realized what happened. I got kidnapped!
I looked over to where I am and found myself in the middle of a big bedroom. Standing up is a bit harder for me to do because my head feels so heavy. As I walk across the room, someone stopped my track… or something. I noticed my left ankle is in cuffs and is tied on the leg of the king sized bed. I am chained.
Fear rose inside me as I started to panic. I don’t know where I am, I don’t who’s after me and I still got a lot of problems! But what really bothers me the most is the fact that I am inside a bedroom. Whose bedroom is this anyway?
My train of thoughts stopped as I hear the door creaked open as a man emerged from it. Above all the people, I could have guessed who it is.
“Sir Connor.”
“Where am I? Why have you abducted me?”Fear was evident in my voice as I try to stay calm but failed miserably. I can feel my heart pounding against my chest as if it’s coming out of my ribs. This is all too sudden and I think this would be the end of me.“Calm down. It’s not the end of the world.” He said like I am being all paranoidWhat’s going on? I thought he’s a good guy? But why have he captured me and chained me to this bed?“Look what they’ve done to you.” he said and started walking towards me.Every thud of his footsteps is like another thud on my heart getting frightened every second. It seems like danger is approaching but there is no place to run.I was confused when he started to get the chain out of my ankle.“They just can’t get things righ
Connor went towards me with his canines out. He was walking normally, but to me he was walking ever so slowly. Like he was devouring my soul, taking his time. It was a nightmare to see in real life.His left hand slowly made it’s way to my neck sending shivers down my spine. I can feel little sparks landing on his every touch. It was addictive yet frightening.“Close your eyes and brace yourself.” he whispered down to my hearI did not know what he meant but his voice was husky but soft at the same time. His wolf voice went out but his human voice was soothing and calming. It must have took a lot of power to control two personalities at the same time.Before I could even think and digest the thing he whispered, I felt his sharp teeth piercing into my neck. It was agonizing and painful. I let out yet another loud scream.“Aaahhh!”
Hmmm, the bed is sooo soft. I don’t wanna wake up now, the bed is seducing me, heh......Wait, as far as I remembered, my bed is not soft enough compared to how comfortable the bed right where I am now. I bolted my eyes open and realize, I’m not in my room.I sat up quickly only to feel a sting sensation coming from both of my hand and neck. Ouch! I looked at my hand and I remembered everything…I was chained in this room yesterday, got married yesterday, getting bitten by a dog yesterday, almost lost my virginity yesterday, and even got to feel comfortable to a person- oh wait, scratch that. A f*cking WOLF that I just met less that 48 hours! Oh f*ck me…I mentally and physically face palm. You did an amazing job Azrael, congratulations. I came back to my senses as a knock was heard at the door.
“Luna is taking too much of her time! Can we go home now, please?”Levi has been being impatient this whole time. He’s been complaining about how far we have to walk in the mall, carrying all the bags and now the time I spent in choosing everything I needed. I did not hear any complain from Connor and Caleb here. They seem to be feeling alright about this. Or that’s just what they want to show me?“Stop whining little pup.” Caleb finally said after being silent for almost two hours.Before I forgot to mention, these two guys are the Alpha’s uhh… how do I call them? Sidekicks? Well, Caleb is the beta and Levi is the gamma.It’s been almost two hours since we went in the mall. Well, Connor did told me to get the things I want and just take my time. And being a girl that I am, I am really taking my time choosing the BEST garments to wear and some ne
And so, I told Cris what happened the past few days. His expression tells us he was listening to a fiction. Welp, I guess I broke the 4thwall.I saw Cris move his head sideways and laugh like a maniac. “HAHAHA! Okay Azrael, that was a very weird kind of a story but you should think for another plot.” he continued laughing. At least I told him the truth, that’s what matters.And out of surprise, I heard someone growled. Uh oh, I didn’t noticed Connor was beside me. “Are you making fun of my mate now?” I heard him said out of annoyance.And thank goodness Cris stopped laughing. He cleared his throat and looked at me like I was out of my mind. “You’re kidding right?” and with that words out of Cris mouth, Connor took a few steps in front of me and hold my wrist.“Is this a joke to you?” he said in his intimidating voice and raised my ha
I hate to admit it, but the maid uniform fits me well! I literally looked cute with the white and black uniform with a crest embroidered on the upper left on my chest. The skirt that is below my knees with white socks on. The shoes I have is the same with others, but mine looks very expensive. Sigh…They seems too flustered with me being a maid. And now that I put my hair in a neat bun and some hair dress or something. Don’t blame me for not an expert with clothes! I can’t even buy my own clothes with my own money. I scratch my hair slightly because of my thoughts. I should get started already.I shook my head and finally went out the maid’s room, oh yeah, their room is so spacious! I closed the door and faced with three maids, Miss Angelique looking at me, amazed.“Wow Luna, you really look beautiful in any clothes you wear!”
“Who’s--” he was about to say something but Olivia butted in.“Nothing Alphy, it’s just a stupid maid,” she said as she clings on the Alpha’s arm. “Let’s go. I missed you.”Everyone was silent, unsure of what to react until Connor and Olivia left the kitchen, I was left on the floor, confused. I wasn’t able to show my face to Connor because I don’t want him to see me in a maid outfit.But what the fvck?I blinked twice, trying to process what was happening. Who the hell is Olivia? How dare she cling to my husband like that? As much as I want to pull her hair, I stayed composed. First, I don’t want to let Connor know that I am a maid. I can’t lose the chance of earning money. I badly and desperately need money right now for my father’s medications. Second, Olivia is a she-wolf. If I would pull her h
“We’re so sorry to interrupt Alpha. We better get going now.”In a second, I got my back against them and walked hurriedly to the door with a confused Anna tailing me. How could he do that? When he already found a mate? Am I not enough? Maybe not? Oh yes… because I’m just a human.I kept speed walking but I did not hear any heavy footsteps following behind me aside from Anna’s light running. He is not coming for me.“Luna? What is the Alpha talking about?” Anna had been wondering about that but I did not spare her an answer. Instead, I kept walking and walking until we got to the kitchen.“Luna where have you been? Are you okay” Madam Angelique asked.“Yeah I’m fine. Uhh.. what’s my next task?” I asked trying not to crack my voice but I guess they can sense that I’m not alrigh
