Taken Again
Lina took her time, choosing clothes to wear as if she would be going on a date when it was just her father. She kept on changing clothes because of her jittery nerves but in the end, she settled for tight-fit black jeans and a cream dress shirt. She tied her hair in a high ponytail and just left her face bare except for the red lipstick that she was wearing.
She heaved a deep sigh as she picked up her purse. The uncertainties of what could have happened today kept her awake all night and she had her dark circles to show. Shaking her head to chase away the thoughts in her head, she got out of her apartment.
Last night, she casually asked Zhan if her car was still parked in her parking space and he told her that it was there for her to use. She couldn’t be more glad about what she heard. Also, she received a message from Dana—the wife of her ex-fiance, inviting her for dinner. Seeing that the people in her past were reaching out to her, she somehow thought t

Lina heard the hum of the aircon and the unfamiliar felt of the mattress on her back. She sniffed the air before she opened her eyes and fear crawled on her skin when she smelled the air.“You can open your eyes. You’re safe here.”Her eyes flew open when she heard the familiar voice. She jerked up the bed, pulling the blanket to her chest for a part of her brain remembered that she would wake up naked whenever she woke up with Eon in the room.“Didn’t you get enough sleep for you to be up that long?” His voice was laced with worry.“Y-you!!” She pointed her finger at Eon who was lounging on the armchair under an open window. She could see that it was already night and she was in a bedroom with a Victorian interior design. “What did you to me?”“I want to talk—”“Talk? You freaking kidnapped me!” She screamed at him. The fear and the panic she felt came
Under The Waning Moon Ever Changing Dilemma
“I want you to ask me all of the questions you have.”The room went so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Her breath was caught at the back of her throat for Eon’s offer was too good not to take. She had so many questions and even though she wasn’t sure if he would tell her the truth, it was still a good offer since she has no one to ask her questions, especially those that involved werewolves and such.“I know you don’t fully trust me but I promise to tell you the truth that I know.”Lina was shocked that Eon seemed to know her dilemma. He was right, right now, she doesn’t want to talk to Briare and Brigette. She doesn’t trust Eon but at least he’s someone that she knew compared to Briare who did help her get a new identity but it turned out that he has a personal motive by doing so.Eon patiently waited for Lina’s decision. His wolf could sense her apprehension and mistrust, that’
Under The Waning Moon Preparing To Meet Her Mother
The night breeze caressed her skin as the moon—high up in the night sky, adorned the open window of her hotel room where a table for two was set up for her and Eon. A glorious spread of her favorite foods was laid on the table, a bottle of wine was opened and Eon was sitting across from her, attentively taking care of her wants even before it leaves her mouth. “Really? What is this magic?” She sighed, annoyed. She dropped her fork and knife beside her plate and glared at Eon. “Babe, there is no magic. It is what is it.” “What do you mean?” Eon chuckled in amusement. Lina was too charming for her own good. Her pouting and throwing a tantrum over every little thing tickles Eon’s heart. “You see, our kind were more receptive to the emotions and feelings of the others.” He put a piece of meat on her plate, and said, “yours were leaking all over the place.” He poured her glass more wine. “But don’t worry, you can learn to hide your thoughts in no time.”
Under The Waning Moon Fly With Me
Lina and Eon sat next to each other inside Eon’s eighteen-seater private plane. They were sipping some wine, faint music floated inside the plane and the cabin attendants were nowhere to be seen as well as Eon’s right-hand man, Ehann. They must be somewhere inside the plane but they hid to probably give her and Eon some privacy.They were just the passengers of the plane, other than the two cabin attendants and the pilots for a more than ten hours flight to a small airport in South East of Ireland for it was the nearest airport to where her mother was.The flight would take longer because they will have a two hours layover in Hong Kong. She didn’t exactly know why but she overheard a conversation between Eon and the pilot that there was some business that Eon had to settle.She wasn’t in a hurry to meet her mother until now, she wasn’t sure if she really wanted to talk to her about the circumstances of her birth. The main reason why
Under The Waning Moon The Hurts
The humming in her head went quiet the moment Eon kissed her. The questions that were causing her anxiety due to uncertainties disappeared as though the future no longer mattered. Her eyelids slowly fluttered when Eon raised his mouth away from hers but didn’t pull back.“Lina.”The way he called her name in a soft tone of voice caught her by surprise, her eyes stared right into Eon’s and noticed that his eyes were jet black with a speck of gold. “Galan,” she whispered back.Eon blinked and his eyes returned to their normal color. “What did you say?”“What?” She also blinked her eyes in confusion and leaned back to put a gap between their faces for it appeared that Eon had no plan to get away from her.“You call me with a name…” He tilted his head to the side, pulling the small of her back closer to her but her seatbelt hindered his action. “Galan, you said.”
Under The Waning Moon Jealous You, Jealous Me
The only noise heard between the three of them at the table was the cutlery and the faint music being played somewhere in the plane. By now, she realized that Eon likes jazz and classic—if it was his choice of music that has been playing during the duration of their flight. They were still on the air and Eon asked that they have their meal together. Thus, Ehann was sitting with them in the rearranged seat that allowed them to sit comfortably around a table.The food was great. The only problem was, Eon hasn’t talked to her and it’s slowly pissing her off. She took another sip of her wine, glaring at Eon. Ehann noticed the awkwardness between them and squirmed in his seat.[Eon, what are you doing?][Shut up!] He snapped at Ehann, giving him a warning look.Lina saw the exchange of glances between the two men that flamed her frustration towards Eon’s giving her the cold shoulders. She couldn’t understand why he was sulking jus
Under The Waning Moon You Are Bigger Than Your Fears
It was just her and Eon in the car and Eon was the one driving. She asked him to open the window for the view outside was too beautiful not to admire. Also, because she needed the air to breathe. Since they landed, her heart hasn’t stopped pounding like crazy and Eon’s advice of not overthinking wasn’t possible at all. She heaved a deep sigh, watching the beautiful greenery outside the car’s window. According to Eon’s contact person, the drive would take them less than an hour. Her mother was in the garden, tending her plants. Lina scoffed when she heard her mother tending some plants. Her mother had always been a social butterfly. She would die if she couldn't see her face or her name wasn’t mentioned in social events. The image of her mother toiling the ground was something too foreign for her to even imagine. “We’re almost there.” Eon’s voice pulled her out of her thoughts. “I’m not sure I can face her.” She gripped her phone. She had all her quest
Under The Waning Moon The Old Wounds That Never Heals
‘I never like you.’ Those four words were like a dull knife that kept on stabbing Lina in the chest as she kept on repeating those words in her head. She knew that her mother didn’t like her growing up, however, it was the first time that her mother told her verbally that she never liked her—and despite knowing the fact all her life, hearing them from her mother’s mouth still hurt.She slowly lowered herself to the ground. Sitting next to her mother but making sure to put enough distance between them.“I was younger than you when I met your father,” she said, her eyes glued in the distance, past behind the tall trees as if she was seeing the story she was telling her daughter behind those trees. “I was doing what other women my age were doing—finding a suitable husband.” A smile ghosted her lips as if she was remembering something fun and exciting. “I met your father at one of the parties my friend&rsquo
