Forbidden love Chapter 26: Lisa
Lisa stepped back and the word seemed to echo within her. Ware-wolf? Really? He had the audacity to be sarcastic in such a moment. Did he think it was funny? My mom is clearly unhappy with Tobias. Marc is upset with Tobias. Marc and Mom are acquaintances. Marc has a little sister that didn’t come to the wedding. And now I am in some basement. As an explanation for all this, he threw a ridiculous word at me. I had had enough.“Get out of my way, Marc. I am not in a mood to joke. I’ve got to find Mom.”“Lisa.” That time his voice wasn’t how it always sounded. It was dense. He looked at me and I noticed the colour of his eyes change to crimson. I stood there without moving. For a second I was even terrified of breathing.It couldn’t be true. Shapeshifters are myths. No way Marc was one.“…”I opened my mouth but no words came out. In the moment, I lost my voice and, if I were to believe the evidence, then I lost my sanity as well.“Sit down.” His voice was extremely demanding and dominati
Forbidden love Chapter 27: Veronica
“I know it’s a lot to take in. Your dad wanted to keep this a secret for your protection. But hiding things is no longer an option."Lisa looked at me for answers. There is no mother who wants to see her children hurt. But the only way to protect Lisa was to tell her the truth. I knew someday she’d find out, I justwished, it was under different circumstances.“Mom, isn't that true?”I knew she believed me. She needed my validation because I wouldn’t lie to her.“Yes, sweetie. He, Tia, and even me.”I had never seen her so small. She seemed to have shrunk in bed as if her world had collapsing around her. I wished nothing more at this moment than to protect my baby girl. But there is no fooling Tobias. If he had already met her, he knew who she was. The sooner we told her, the better.“My father was the leader of our pack. So were both of Marc’s grandfathers. His parents married when they were young, and their packs had joined arms. I grew up with his parents. My father and his parents
Forbidden love Chapter 28: Marc
“Wait! How did Tobias find out that I had arrived in town?" Veronica asked me startled. She wasn’t telling Lisa more for now but contemplating how Tobias could know so soon that she was here.In an instant, the answer became apparent to both of us.“He knows.” We said in unison.“There was no other explanation. He had to know that Lisa was Veronica’s daughter and probably had someone follow her everymove.” I offered.“So that means he…” Lisa spoke embarassingly looking around the room, “knows about us too?” She managed to say looking at me. Colours drained from her face. It meant Erica knew as well.“But if he already knew about us why would he not yell at you?" She wondered, "Or has Erica confronted you?".“Because he knew I’d lead him straight to you. Shit. We have to get out now.”Just then The Five stormed the basement. Our speculations were right. Tobias had known all along. And that’s why he set me off. I walked straight into the trap he set for me.Veronica didn’t waste a minut
Forbidden love Chapter 29: Veronica
I knew I could handle The Five. Maybe even three times that number. I was raised to be a fighter. But Tobias had a huge army. Though I couldn’t let him sense fear in us, I knew we’d lose because we were outnumbered. Also, if I were to be honest I couldn’t take on Tobias on my own. Dad kept him besides him for a reason. Dad and his two best friends didn't stand a chance against him. I could avoid or delay a fight, but face-to-face with Tobias wasn’t a fight I could win.“Where to?” Marc asked. I looked at Tia and Lisa in the backseat. Lisa fought so well earlier. She remembered what we taught her when she was little. But her strength. Could it be that the gene was kicking in now? Why now of all times?“By now Tobias must have sent an army looking for us. "We can't leave or stay." I looked at Marc, worried. He had already lost his parents, and Tia was all he had left. He and I had our girls to protect and none of us could think of how. “Let’s go to the woods. A friend of mine might know
Forbidden love Chapter 30: Marc
When we first arrived in the woods, I didn’t see anything but a beaten path. I turned around to do something and stood frozen for a moment when I realized that the car had left no tracks. How was that possible?“We have to walk now," Veronica told us.In spite of the barely visible trail, we all set out to walk. I kept turning to see the same thing. Our footsteps weren’t visible either. I saw Lisa lose control and quickly reached out to her before she fell on the ground. She lost consciousness in my arms and hasn’t woken up since.Almost a week had passed since we got here in the woods. I can't believe how nobody else had noticed the huge mansion even though it's only a few miles out of the city.“V. Oh how the Lord must be happy today. Welcome darling.”"Ash," Veronica said to the voice.Tia and I looked at each other. We saw no one. We sure heard the voice but there was no one in sight.I was carrying Lisa in my arms. She was still not up and I wished for her to be in a bed soon. Ve
Forbidden love Chapter 31: The Witch
Marc wanted to kiss her longer, but I stopped him because I knew the others were on their way. It was becoming more and more difficult and agonising to be apart from her. "Hi, I'm your host," he said. That witch? With a smile on her face and a question, Lisa said. "Oh my. You are quick. I guess that means you don't fear me? As she approached Lisa, Ash questioned her. Okay, let's see, I discovered that my mother is a wolf. Tia and Marc are one. I battled a group of losers known as The Five. I have no idea who or what I am, but I experienced a surge of power. I'm currently visiting a witch's home. Do I need to be afraid? "Oh, Sweetheart. Stop speaking in such a snarky manner. Veronica uttered,. "This is my friend Ash.""Hello, Ash. I am sorry if that was rude." Lisa broke into a smile. "And thanks for taking us in.""Oh, Dear. My pleasure. Your mom and I go way back. Sadly, like her, I am an outcast, and my powers were taken from me when I was about your age. I wish I had some juic
Forbidden love Chapter 32: Lisa
What I've discovered over the last few days is this. My mom is a wolf . My dad enjoyed hunting, only not the kind of hunting people know about. He was a warewolf hunter. I inherited both genes at birth. My warewolf half didn't allow hunter gene take over because wolves and hunters are inherently hostile to one another. Given my proximity to what people refer to as "a monster," the hunter gene has started to manifest itself ever since Marc and I had sex. If all of it weren't enough, It seems like Marc felt the same things I did when I was around him: a a desire to mate. That's how my werewolf half is responding to him being there. He concurred. Our current location is a witch's home. Mom and Ash are attempting to find a means to restore our life. The reality can seem overwhelming at times. But when faced with a challenge, my natural reaction as a physicist is to find a solution. I don't typically waste time contemplating how serious the problem is. Observe an issue? Think. Reflect m
Forbidden love Chapter 33: Marc
We worked out from dawn to dusk. We cannot possibly defeat Tobias by ourselves. The most we can do right now is prepare. Tobias has amassed an army. I feel calm when I look at Tia and Lisa getting along. Tia was a student in the Netherlands at a boarding school, which is why Tobias was unaware of her presence when Erica claimed to be my soulmate and said she wanted to marry me."We’ve only just met," I remember telling her, stepping away from her. "It’s getting late; I’ve got to go." I paid my bill and got ready to leave the bar."So we meet again. Is tomorrow good for you?" She asked. I left quietly. From there on, no matter where I went, she’d follow me. I could sense that she was a werewolf as well, but I knew strength comes from desperation. I could take her down if she caused trouble. I ignored her, knowing it wouldn’t last.To my surprise, she kept running into me for a month. "Enough with the games already. I am getting tired of it." She claimed one day."I work here; stop fol
