SUNSHINE:Don't follow him! the other part of my mind ordered as I found myself following Knoxx.It seemed like there was some sort of invisible rope tied around my ankles dragging me to him. No matter how much I struggled to stop, my stupid feet looked like they had a mind of their own and they wouldn't stop chasing my stepbrother.Damn it!Do not tell me that even my own body was not following me at all. 'Why should we not? Knoxx is our leader,’ Helena stated. Ah. My good-for-nothing wolf who only came out when she wanted to defend her mate. The wolf in which her mate was the only thing that mattered to her. I had another possible reason why I was following him. Maybe I did not follow Knoxx because I was scared of his threat. Maybe I only followed him because I was sleepy. Yes. I was sleepy. That's the only explanation I can give because that was the truth, okay? Nothing but the truth. Ugh.Now, I did not even understand what was happening in my mind. Knoxx's broad shoulders w
SUNSHINE:Harsh?That was all he could say that he was a little harsher? Did Knoxx even hear himself? He was not a little harsher but he was so wrong! If he truly did not have any intentions of not hurting me, he should have told me of his cheating a day before the wedding. But what did he do? He waited until it was my wedding day and dropped the bomb that my groom was having an affair with someone else!“I realized it now,” Knoxx added.Oh, no. My ears were not playing tricks on me. Knoxx was looking at me with furrowed eyebrows and a serious expression on his face.This was the last thing that I expected from him. I actually did not know how I should react. Should I laugh or not? Should I punch him or not?My heart felt like it was going to burst open as I kept on gawking at him. “You think it will change everything?” He did not answer, but his eyes were enough to tell me that a lot had been going around in his heart. When he still had no plans of saying anything, I asked, “Are yo
SUNSHINE"How much is this?" I asked at the display of dresses right in front of me. In my head, I had already planned all the things that I would buy, but unfortunately, the seller right in front of me would not make it fast. His movements were slow and scary and if he was not the only one wearing dresses by now, I would already have shifted to the other stall."And that one. The royal blue dress. As well as the red dress," I added, beaming. The seller's eyes widened when Knoxx stood beside me while Dante was on our back, guarding us, looking for any potential threat. I'll just leave the two while guarding the place. "How much?" I inquired again when the seller did not answer. His expression paled as his eyes darted at Knoxx. 'Stop glaring at the man,' I muttered using the mind link. 'Leave the poor man alone.''I'm not doing anything.''Yes, you are. If you do not believe it, look at yourself in the mirror. Stop scaring them, Knoxx. You're not helping at all. That will not make
SUNSHINE:Brody paid for the three chickens and the seller happily gave it to him, while thanking him countless times. The people around him, upon recognizing him had warmed up, always smiling. Compared to Knoxx, the people were less tense around Brody. They smiled and joked. Unlike Knoxx. Hmmm.I wondered what kind of charisma Brody possessed to gather this crowd under his leadership.After buying all he needed, Brody turned his back, leaving the people. "Leader!"He glanced over his shoulder and found an elderly woman coming in his direction. I thought he was going to see me, but he did not. Did he never see me?I stopped in my tracks. 'We should go back,' Helena suggested in my mind. 'I don't like the vibes of this place.''Why would I? I already informed him that we will be following Brody.''We should not leave our mate behind,' she explained. I snorted. 'Oh, please, Helena. Stop worrying like crazy. That's useless. Knoxx doesn't want us. For all I knew, he was celebratin
SUNSHINE:Become a rogue, huh? That already came to my mind, but doing it would hurt my Mother's feelings. Being a rogue was the last thing she wanted from her daughter. Still…Given my experience earlier with Brody and his men, being in their company was not that bad. In fact, I liked being with them even if they were still suspicious of me. Maybe they thought I was the alpha's spy. 'Our mate would be happy if you were his spy.''Me? A spy? I'm not his slave and I would never be his servant.''Why did you stay in their company?''I wanted to know if someone out there would be kind to me,' I answered without hesitation. 'Our mate will be kind to us one day. He will regret hurting us in the past.''When? When we die? I refuse to wait for that time. I refuse to be like you who is blinded by our bond.''I will wait until he changes.'I laughed darkly. 'That's foolishness. I'm smarter than you so I won't be like you.'Brody snapped his fingers right in front of my face. I blinked a c
SUNSHINE:Knoxx did not say anything at all but his expression said it all. He had no plans of rejecting me. And the most frustrating part was the smirk on his lips."Reject me! If you won't, I will tell everyone about—""Why would I reject you?" he asked, cutting me off from my words. My mouth opened and closed. There were a lot of answers in my head to his questions. Why would he reject me? We did not have an inkling of love for each other. He hated me and I felt the same. Above all, there will be no days in which we would never argue. I clenched my fist and lifted my chin, and stared at him in the eyes. "You know the reasons why. Don’t pretend to be stupid and spell the reasons for myself, Brother.”He folded his arms in front of his chest. “If I reject, where is the fun in that?”Untangling his hands, he grabbed a handful of my hair and sniffed it.Horrified, I backed away crossed both of my hands on my chest, and looked at him with pure disgust.“Pervert! I never give you t
SUNSHINE: If it was not a sin to kill, I had long since killed Knoxx. Who wouldn't be tempted? He was still the most infuriating man I ever saw. And now I was going to be stuck with him?"Why don't you try to talk to Brody? Sign a peace treaty with him so that this will be done. I am already sick of seeing you every day."His face turned blank. "That's not that simple.""It is to me. You're just making everything complicated. Give in to their demands. Give them a position in the pack. You have to remember that that was the reason why we are here. Consult them. Why don't you use your brain, Knoxx?"If he had no plans of returning, well I had. I had no issues staying here regardless of the poor condition of the place. But the people surrounding me were another discussion. "If someone is not using their brain, it is you."I pointed my hands at myself and looked at him in disbelief. "Me? Why would it be me? Who between us is not doing anything to talk to Brody and his men? Who between u
ALPHA KNOXX:The woman was gone. My step-sister had.It had been a couple of hours since she went outside, but there was no news of her returning any moment from now. The door suddenly swung open.“It’s good that you are back. The rain is–” My words died down in my mouth upon seeing who it was. I hid my disappointment upon seeing it was Dante.Wait. Why would I be disappointed that it was not my stepsister? “Alpha. Look at what I caught. Miss Sunshine would be happy to see this.” Dante came from his hunt. There was a deer on the other side of his shoulder. There were cuts on his body, but that would heal given our amazing healing skills. The man had informed me he would be hunting and invited me to join him, but rejected his offer.If I come with him, who would guard the little wench from behaving?Dante’s eyes furrowed as he put the animal on the table. His hair was wet and also down below. “Where is Miss Sunshine?” he asked when he saw that the woman was gone.That woman?I wa
