" I can perceive Ethan's scent, " I called out and the others came running to where I was as tears brimmed in my eyes.
" It's okay, Maya, " Julia comforted, hugging me as beads of tears fell from my eyes. I know I promised myself not to cry again, but I just couldn't help it anymore.
As much as I tried to be happy and act like everything was fine, I knew it wasn't because Ethan wasn't with me.
" We are going to find him, you don't have to worry so much, " she assured, rubbing my back to soothe away the pain I was feeling.
" Of course, we will find him. We have gotten a lead now and we would be able to find where they are staying from this place, " Victor also assured and I nodded in understanding, hugging Julia tightly.
I was acting really vulnerable right now, but I didn't care at all as all that concerned me was his safety. I was really glad that I d
VICTOR BLOODBORNEI didn't expect her to ask that question, especially since I knew she had feelings for me. But, anyone would be so curious to find out about such a thing." Well….. " I started, though I was unsure of what to say. " Serena, Gabriel and I were very close friends when we were young. You know, as the future Alpha, Beta and Gamma. But after Gabriel's father died and he had to begin his Beta duties and work under my father. Serena and I got closer since Gabriel wasn't with us anymore. She and I began to develop feelings for each other, "." We began dating, but I had to break up with her because she was beginning to want too much. I didn't want someone who was dating me because of my position, I wanted someone who would love me for who I was and not what I was offering, "." After a while, we got back together, but we decided not to date again. We began
" Thank you for the meal, it was delicious as I expected it to be, " I appreciated as soon as we were done eating.Lunch had gone better than I anticipated. We gisted, laughed, cracked jokes in between dinner, making it more fun for us. I hadn't laughed like that for a while now and I was glad I accepted his offer to stay over.Asides the fun, the meal was also delicious and I ate to my fill. I doubt I could even walk, so I remained seated in my position, not bothering to even stand up." I should be thanking you for staying over, this was my first lunch in how many years that I wished shouldn't end. Thank you for accepting my proposal, " he answered and I nodded at him. Julia cleared her throat and I turned to look at her, wondering what she wanted to say again.' I guess I have made both of you get closer, ' her voice popped up in my mind and I rolled my mi
" You have found them? " I asked, standing up abruptly. I rushed to him, the others following behind me. The head tracker panted as he had obviously been running from where he was." We did. Their location was not far from where we found their scent. That's why we were able to get their scent, " he responded and I made to run outside, but Victor stopped me by grabbing my wrist." Where are you going? " He asked and the others stared at me, probably wondering the same thing." What else should I be doing here? He has told us where they are, the next thing is to go there and get Ethan out of that place. Why are you asking me something so obvious? " I replied, also asking him a question." Yeah, we're supposed to go get Ethan as we have found out where they are staying, I don't object to that. But, why are you going now? " He asked and I let out an exasperated s
VICTOR BLOODBORNE" Maya, you can't go anywhere. Don't force me to lock you up in a room until we are done with the preparation," I warned and she couldn't help but scoff, walking closer to me." You must still think I am that seventeen year old girl you ordered around every time, right? " She asked lowly, growling in the process. Something was wrong, she wasn't like this before." You have to calm down, Maya, " Julia interrupted and Maya turned to glare at her, making her cower in fear." What is wrong with her? This wasn't how she was earlier. Is this because of Ethan? " I asked Julia who heaved out a sigh, rubbing her temple. Maya went to take her sit on the couch, golfing her arms as she frowned." Meet Rica, Maya's alter ego who is responsible for the safety of Ethan. You should call her Rica from now on until Ethan is safe and healt
VICTOR BLOODBORNE" Maya, please, " I called out, tapping her hands as I tried to free myself without hurting her, but her grip on my neck was too tight." I am not Maya, my name is Rica, " she growled and I ignored her, still tapping her hands. Fuck Rica, the person I knew and was in love with was Maya and not Rica.I tried to release myself from her grip with a little force, but it wasn't possible. I didn't know that Maya was that strong, or was it because this was Rica?" Rica, please, let him go, " Julia pleaded, trying to grab her hands, but Rica shoved her away, making her fall on the couch. The fuck?" It was all his fault, because of him, Gabriel died, Maya had to suffer just because of him. Why should I let him go? He deserves death, " she stated and on hearing that, my eyes widened in surprise, causing me to wriggle, using more force, but she
3RD PERSONRica and Julia get back to the Moonfire Pack very late at night and Julia knew that if Maya was in control of her body, she would have insisted that they spend the night in the Bloodfang Pack and stay over for the planning tomorrow.She was annoyed that Rica acted up in front of Victor and Nelson, but she couldn't date to complain, Rica wasn't as lenient as Maya was and it was more uncomfortable being around her." What's up with her? " Bella, who was sitting in the living room when they came, asked Julia, cause immediately they got home, Rica went upstairs without saying hello." I wasn't expecting you to still be awake, " Julia said and Bella shrugged." I was waiting for you guys to come back. Since you didn't give me a call that you would be staying over, I knew that you were going to come back, " she answered. " What's wro
Julia ushered her into the room, closing the door behind her. She walked Maya to the sofa, sitting down beside her." What do you mean by that? Why can't you feel any connection with Ethan anymore? What does that mean? " She asked, getting so worked up about what Maya said." Is this how it going to be when Ethan isn't with me anymore? I couldn't even feel his presence when I was locked in Rica's mind. What will I do when he is gone? " She cried and Julia engulfed her into a hug, heaving out a sigh of relief as she silently thanked the Goddess that it wasn't what she thought of." Ethan will not die, Maya, you don't need to think so much about it. We have found their hideout and soon, we will get your son back from those motherfuckers, so you need to calm down and stop thinking too much about it, " she advised, even thigh she knew it wasn't a easy thing to do." How did yo
VICTOR BLOODBORNE" Is everything ready? " I asked him, coming downstairs and Nelson nodded in response. I patted his shoulders and walked past him, going outside." Victor, are you sure about this? " He asked for the umpteenth time and I groaned. I knew he was trying to convince me, but I felt he should know that I wasn't the type to get easily convinced once my mind had been made up." Yes, I am sure. If we keep thinking and arguing about this, then a day would fly like a bird and Rica would be here, demanding that we attacked whether preparing or not, " I told him and he let out a sigh, probably giving up." Good morning, amicable warriors of the Bloodfang Pack," I greeted and they all bowed their heads at Nelson and I, chanting our names." We have a big problem at hand right now and I would need people to help us, " I started, feeling nervous all of a sud
