I LET THE question slip from my mouth without even considering how he will react. My curiosity is pushing me to the edge. And as expected from him, he was taken aback. His jaw then clenched and averted his gaze once more. Now I regret spilling the question."I'm sorry for asking. As I said, you don't have to answer if you don't want to."I let go of his hand. But I can't deny the disappointment I felt."No, don't feel sorry, Ysobella. There is nothing to apologize for. I brought my eyes to him but I can still see the hesitation lurking behind his orbs."There are things that I wanted to tell you but right now I need you to give me time. We don't know if this vampire is dangerous or not but I promise you, once I'll find proof that we can trust him I will bring him to you."Now it's my turn to be surprised. Well, what he just said was beyond surprising. Why would he bring him to me? Lucien saw how confused I was so he continued to talk. "Sweetheart, we've learned that this vampire is

LOVEI WAS SO lost with the pleasure he was giving me and I didn't even notice he's brought me into his room. My back pressed against the cold wall of his room. He captured my slightly parted mouth with his. His lips then proceeded on kissing my earlobe, down to my neck. I think it has now become his favorite thing to do. My hands found his hard shoulders. I then gripped them so tight when he pressed his body against mine. The burning sensation we give each other is too strong and intense. My mind can't even think of any sensible thoughts and all I care about is what we have right now. He bit the tip of my ear before cupping my face. The moment our eyes met, I saw desire dancing in his blue orbs."Lucien..."The moment his name rolled from my tongue, his eyes were filled with an unfathomable emotion. Then his lips once capture mine. "I promised I'll try to hold back tonight, but f*ck! You're so tempting and I can't take it anymore!" I whimpered under his touch which earned a pain

THE NEXT DAY I woke up with something heavy wrapped around me, it was Lucien's arm. When I turned around to face him, a small smile formed on my lips. I smiled and watched him with awe. I traced his slightly parted lips with my fingers and down to his well-sculpted jaw. I stifled a laugh when my fingers touched his short stubbles. He looks perfect and divine. I lifted my hand to trace his thick pair of slightly creased brows. I tried touching his lips again but Lucien caught my hand. "Good morning, sweetheart," he greeted groggily. His eyes dance with amusement. He then brought my hand to his lips to kiss each of my fingers. I swallowed the lump in my throat because of his sweet gesture. "Good morning, I'm sorry for waking you."He wet his lips before speaking. "I don't mind being awakened by you, Ysobella. This is actually the scene I longed dream."He smiled and took my other hand. Once again, he showered my fingers with feathery kisses. I averted my gaze because his teasing me
RED STRING CHAPTER 22.1
GOOD NIGHTTHE CHILDREN SERENADE us with their angelic voices. We were all amazed at how pure and soulful their voice are.After the show, we approached the children and expressed our praises. But I noticed that some of the children are joyfully talking with a man a few steps away from us. It was Synth.Lucien didn't mention that Synth is fond of children. A strong pair of arms shortly took my attention away from Synth and the children."Sweetheart," Lucien mumbled before kissing me on my shoulder."You didn't tell me about Synth's fondness for kids."I only earned a mere hum from Lucien as if he wasn't interested."Aren't you going to talk to him?" I asked."What for? There's actually no reason for us to talk and besides, he's occupied."I secretly rolled my eyes from his choice of answer."He looks so natural with the kids. I can how genuine his reaction is every time he laughs with them."I can't help but smile gently as I went on watching the Alpha."Yes, he is," Lucien uttered fl

"HELLO, ATTICUS," I greeted upon reaching him. He was surprised to see me but eventually returned my greetings. "You're alone?" he asked while looking around."Yes, I'm not occupied with tasks today. How about you? Are you with your family?"He shook his head. "Just me. But since you're now here, do you mind keeping me company? I'll treat you with sweets."I couldn't say no to his pleading eyes. I know Lucien told me to be careful but with Atticus, everything seems fine... and I have this feeling like I owe him something.*****ATTICUS TOOK ME to a carousel. He said he wants to experience riding it. I teased him because he was too old for that ride but he only shrugged his shoulder. He said your age won't matter and anyone can ride it. Riding the carousel with Atticus was fun. It somehow made me feel like I was reminiscing memories from my childhood. After the carousel ride, we had a little stroll then he bought me dinner.I was supposed to decline but he said it might be our last m

SAME DREAM"DON'T GO TOO FAR, sweety. Wait for your brother," the mother reminds her daughter."Yes, mother," the little girl answered.The little girl was humming a song her mother sings her every night until a stunning bird with blue feathers caught her attention. The appearance of the bird got her mesmerized so she followed it. The bird flew too fast until she lost it. She felt disappointed so she decided to go back to her parents.

AYLA'S EYES WIDENED after knowing. "So nobody really knows who he is? Even Nereza?!"Clarrise gave her a simple nod as a response. Then she started telling us how Synth found out about her mate's rejection of her. It turns out that Synth was there when they found each other and he witnessed how he rejected Clarrise. After that, he left them and Synth was the one who brought Clarrise back here. And Clarrise made him promise not to tell a soul to anyone regarding her mate.And the reason why Lucien is sometimes hard on Synth is that he feels like the Alpha from Halivaara is keeping something important from him. Clarrise eventually felt better after sharing. Ayla then brought her gaze to me."How about you, Sissy? Mind sharing what's bugging you?" I let out a deep breath and shared my issues as well. The two both have the same reaction as they listen to me."Bella? What if your hunch is right? What if they're really your memories from your childhood?" asked Clarrise. "That's impossibl

SILVER BULLETI FEEL SO lost and confused. I dreamt of it again and this time it feels so real. It was like I was actually in the woods and I clearly saw the faces of my parents. The tree in my dream looks vivid but what makes me confused is I can't clearly see the face of the man I helped. I stretched my neck and went on with my daily routines instead of stressing myself.I was thinking this day would go normal but when I entered the mansion, I was welcomed by Nereza's worried face. I instantly asked her what was wrong and what she told me surprised me and somehow, scared me. She brought Clarrise her breakfast. Clarrise is not answering from inside so she entered her room. There she was surprised when she didn't find her. Not even her essence is felt in the mansion or the nearby woods. Ayla came running to us. She asked Nereza if Clarrise's disappearance was true and her heart broke when Nereza confirmed it. Lucien and the others were already out there tracking her scent. They're
