The princess, her friend, and the Middle Eastern Pack left six and a half hours ago. There was a hum in the air that made Lily rouse from her sleep. She was resting on the birdhouse Celeste made for them when they moved to the Philippines.
Clutching the small vial, she watched as a sound of a motorcycle approached the property. A man on a black-colored Streetfighter V4 wore the same shade of jacket and helmet. It was impossible to see who the rider was, but at the back of her mind, there is only one person who she can think of.
He stopped at the entrance of the property, looking at the remains of a house that he longed to return. Not a single structure was left standing, all were burned to the ground. He turned the engine off, kicked the stand, and stood up. The man took off his helmet and placed it on the handlebar. His silver-green eyes never left the house.
"Prince," Lily began.
His ga
They did venture into the city where the statue of Lord Shiva was currently being presented to the public. While Nuru, Layla, and Megan were walking ahead, Wayne was behind the trio. Scanning the area as they walk.The place was beautiful; since it was almost dawn, there were few people on the ground. Some were barefoot, while others were giving tribute to Lord Shiva. There was an air of tranquility that would make you realize how precious life is.For Wayne, however, being in a sacred place was lost to him. What he did enjoy was the view of the Himalayas. The construction of the temple and the city at the foot of the mountains gave people an up-close look at it. With his eyes, he can see the jagged rocks and the slopes of the mountains.He remembered climb
"Is there something wrong, princess?" Lem asked. Serena was behind Rooka when she felt an ominous presence in the air. It was just a hint, but she was aware that something was not right. When she saw Rooka pause and glanced at Kaz, her instincts were screaming at her. "Serena, why don't you drive the ATV?" He asked, there was a playful tone in his voice, but when she looked at his eyes, Death was showing itself. Serena smiled and said, "No, I'm fine. You drive. I don't know how to drive an ATV. Dad never had a chance to teach me." "Okay, but you will be riding in front of me-" "No." Serena looked at him, his body was tense like h
Wayne knew something was not right. After his near kiss with Megan, the air suddenly felt like everyone's eyes were on them. Not just him, but also the twins. They acted like everything was okay. Their body movements said otherwise.Beta, we are being watched. It came from Nuru, who was excitedly talking to a vendor in front of him. All of them knew the dialect of the region. So it was easy for them to communicate. After all, being alive for more than a hundred years did have its perks.Wayne! It was Rooka, and from the way he was shouting in his head, trouble was headed their way. Go back to the plane, now! For the love of... damnit Serena! Wayne could only close his eyes and breathe as he slowly spread his senses.There were at least five enemies in the vicinity. They must have thought that Nuru and Layla were not too much of a threat. Then again, seeing how the twins are, who would have thought they
Everything inside Rooka stilled. What she was saying was right. She is the alpha of the region, and they are still her envoy. However, she is his mate, and Serena should at least listen to him…The problem was, she didn't have any idea that they were mates. And at the same time, Rooka's domineering attitude may be too much right now.It was Kaz who broke the tension. He told everyone to get on the plane so they could leave. When they were clear for takeoff, the bears maneuvered the plane to leave India.There was a collective sigh of relief when they were in the air. For now, they are safe, and no one was hurt. But the tension between Rooka and Serena was back, and being in a plane, 60,000 feet below the ground, was not helping.Lem and the rest of the Sparks were quietly watching them. Lem was worried about Serena. Her powers were unlocked, and without proper training, she could h
"Mate bond?" Asked Megan.It hurts to see her friend cry. This was far worse than what she had seen since Serena's parents died. She had known that bhe could stop her emotions, but to feel this level of anguish was more heartbreaking."A mating bond is a connection between two fated mates," Lem said. He was seated at the table near Serena and Megan. "Were and Alter Beings have what they call their fated mate. It is the one person for them. The one who would complete their soul, their other half. It's more than just marriage. It's an entirely different thing.""Of course, even if you are true mates, it doesn't mean that it cannot be forced. There are times that it grows. But those are rare." Wayne added. He squatted in front of the still crying Serena. He was goin
The minute they entered the Middle Eastern and African territory, Rooka's pack gave a deep sigh of relief. Rooka and Serena didn't return to the bedroom to sleep. They fell asleep on the place they sat down. Serena was still on his lap while his arms were around her. Wayne draped a blanket at them to make sure they were not cold. Whenever Serena would whimper in her sleep, Rooka would automatically rub her neck. And all Wayne could do was guard them even if he knew they were safe. There were so many questions he wanted to ask, but if Rooka's hold of emotion was too thin, it would cause a massive ripple resulting in Serena having a nervous breakdown. To think his Alpha just lowered the barrier for a second, caused Alpha Daire to have an outburst, what more if the whole damn barrier broke? Don't think too much. I can still handle myself. Rooka said on their mind link. I could
The jet landed at Sharm El Sheikh International Airport. They had their private docking area, and it made traveling easy.The door of the passenger side opened, and twins stepped out, Beth and Mac on their shoulders. They were followed by Kaz and the twin bears. Megan stepped out of the plane, then Wayne, then Rooka. When Serena stepped out of the plane, something inside her clicked.There were people waiting for them.Khalid, Seraphina, and their daughter Rowena were beside them, behind them there were at least twenty men, wearing khaki shorts, and T-shirts. All of them bowed when Rooka reached the ground, and said, “Welcome back, Alpha Rooka.”Rooka felt the collective presence of all his people the moment his feet touched the ground. He could finally breathe easily, at the same time, Serena would have an ample bodyguard with her. He grinned, although, from the way he
Dahab is the central city of the Middle Eastern and African Nations. It is located on the southeast coast of the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt, approximately 80 km northeast of Sharm el-Sheikh. This was a city where every kind of Were Beings is welcome. Ever since the treaty was formed, Dahab was the only city where Panteras, Ursa, and Lupine Beings could mingle with each other. Even the business buildings were co-owned by two or three different Were beings. Hence, the Alpha of the Region was guarded. That is before Rooka was the Alpha… and Wayne was his Beta. Humans were a common visitor to Dahab. It was a perfect place to relax and be near the Gulf of Aqaba where you can explore almost 100 different kinds of coral species and 800 kinds of fishes as well as
