Ezra's POVMy chest tise up and down as I catch my breath."Are you good?" Ryler asked.I glared at him. How could he ask me that casually after we did it?Ryler sigh after seeing my reaction. He then stand from the bed and pulled up his pants. On the other hand, I pulled the thick duvet of his bed and cover my body. I rolled over and let my chest area press against the bed while my hands are spread wide.I close my eyes and let the cold breeze of the aircondition hit the oarts of my body that isn't covered by the blanket.I felt the bed rock a little. Ryler crawled up to me and I felt his arms wrap around my body."Wake up, baby."His warm breath brush against the back of my neck. I shrug my shoulders while my eyes still close."Ugh. I'm tired. Is it okay if we do it some other time?" I asked in a sleepy voice.We are here in my room and we just finished our training. When I say training, what I meant is training to meet my wolf.Ryler have to ways to help me meet my other half.One
Ezra's POV"Up."I inhaled with my mouth close as I exert force to push my body up to follow Ryler's order.We are here in the forest and currently doing a training. Ryler is making me do push ups as a warm up exercise before we go into a more intense training.It's been a month and yet, I still haven't meet my wolf. To be honest, I am already getting frustrated. At first, I thought it would be easy because Ryler is the one who will help me. Everyday, we train. But despite Ryler's hardwork and the amount of effort that I exert, my wolf still won't see me.Sometimes, I want to believe what Conrad, Ryler's cousin have concluded. He once said that maybe I am a human. I know it was a joke, but now that this is happening to me, I'll probably consider that as one of the reasons."Down," Ryler commanded.I exhaled the air that I breath and push my body down. After a month of doing this warm up exercise, it's already easy for me. The only thing that makes it difficult is the big cut trunk o
Ezra's POV"How's the hunt to my father? Did you already know where he is hiding?" I asked.Ryler stayed silent for a couple of seconds before his hand gently squeezes my back."I told you to think of what to eat," he said, trying to avoid the topicI pouted. "I just want to know how busy you would be for this week," I replied. I have no idea about the whereabouts of my father while my mother is still on the underground dungeon. Ryler is giving her food and water thrice a day. It's actually enough for her to be alive. I know I shouldn't feel this way because of what they did to Ryler's parents, but I am still glad that Ryler did not ket my mother starved to death despite of what her husband did.He look at me and kiss my forehead. "No matter how busy I am, I will always make time for you," he said.I bite my lips inwardly to stop myself from smiling. I know what he is doing. He doesn't want me to involve to my father's case so he is trying so hard to not start a conversation about i
Ezra's POVRyler always uplift me to not make me feel sad. But sometimes, whenever someone ask how I am doing and if I have progress, I feel guilty and at the same time, embarrassed. I know I am trying my best. But maybe my best is not enough.Tears started to form in the lower lids of my eyes.Even though Mrs. Renieval, and other members of the pack isn't telling me directly what they want, deep down, I know they want to ask what's my condition and if I already met my wolf. The pressure of being watched by everyone around you is so stressful, but whenever I think of what kind of life I have before and how others treat me, I always find myself being thankful.I am slowly building a good relationship with Mrs. Renieval. I am not being treated as sh*t like before. Also, the bullies I had before were replaced by being highly respected by everyone.I do not want this condition of mine to be the reason why it will crumble before completely built.What woulfd I do then? I am trying my bes
Ezra's POVI quickly get out of Ryler's room before he can pull me back to bed.I went to my room and closed the door to change my clothes. Since I will be teaching kids to cook, I prefer a dress that is easy to wash when they get dirty.I chose a green floral dress. "I think this is good," I said to myself while looking at my reflection in the mirror.I step out of the room and went down stairs. I am already in the ground floor when I heard a whistle from upstairs. When I look up, I saw Ryler, leaning towards the stair barrier with his arms crossed while smirking down at me.I furrow my brows and shrug my shoulders."What are you doing?" I asked.Ryler shakes his head and chuckle. "I just want to see you go." He's on the second floor of the house, but he did not need to yell anymore becuase his voice echoed on the place.I rolled my eyes at him and turn on my back to go find Gia."You look great on the dress," I heard him say before I turn on the left aisle.I bite my cheeks inwardl
Ezra's POVI walk towards them with a smile plastered on my face. I tried si hard to hide the pain that I felt when I saw the little girl attenpting to hide her tears by blinking them away.Who taught these kids to be this mean? I should have considered making an activity about values instead of cooking! "Hi, kids!" I greeted.The three turn their heads in my direction. The boy and the other girl's face lit up when they saw me standing in front of them."Luna!" they both said in excitement."Good day, Luna," the other girl said in a soft voice. Her eyes are avoiding me. I perfectly know the reason why. Since she's looking the other way, I notice her eyes glittering in tears that she's keeping at bay. I lean forward and slighy bend over to level ny face to theirs. I take a look at their name tags."So, you're Ana..." I said to the soft girl. She lifts her head and nod at me.I turn my head to the other two. "You're Renz... and you are Bella," I said to the other two."Nice meeting y
Ezra's POVI am lying down the bed while staring at the ceiling. The incident three days ago is still playing in my head.I managed to talk to Jessa yeaterday. She has a visible in her arm, but she's all good now. I feel guilty and worried at the same time. It is the first activity that I conducted and incident already happened. I do not know if the parents will still let their children join with us.The kids are the main subjects and priority of this activity, without them, there's no reason for us to continue.My mind is still floating somewhere else that I haven't heard the knock from the door. I just notice it when the door opened and Ryler is already walking towards me.I jolt up in bed and lean my back on the headrest of the bed to welcome him."Hey..." he welcomed. "Are you okay?" he added.I flash a smile at him and nodded."Of course," I answered.He eyed me, weighing my expression. I widens my smile to assure him I'm well.He sit beside me and stayed quiet. His eyes are all
Ezra's POVI stare at Gia. Her words still couldn't sink in my mind."Come again?" I asked in disbelief.Gia sigh. "I t-think the accident was not an accident. I think it was a stunt to sabotage the activity," she explained even though it is not necessary.I shake my head, not wanting to accept what I heard. "It's impossible. We clearly saw the burn in that kid's arm. There's no way that it was intentional."Plus, if it was true that it is indeed a sabotage, how could a kid can do that? How could she burn herself intentionally?I felt Ryler's presence behind me. He place his left hand on the wall while his other hand rested around my waist.I saw how Gia's eyes widens when she saw Ryler appeared in my room. She immediately bow her head and awkwardly smiled at me. I can already hear her 'OMG, Alpha Ryler is in your room?!' I let out an exhausting sigh. To be honest, I do not know what to do. What I heard was shocking. Also, we are not sure if it was true."Where did you hear this agai
