Venkat pulled Ro behind him and opened the door. There, Mara stood at the door, fuming. Her ears and nose had gone red as her hands clenched and unclenched. "She's going nowhere," she repeated. "And i care about what you think because?" Venkat asked with irritation.As an answer, Ro screeched and Venkat instantly turned to look at her to see thick red blood oozing out of her wrist. "Because of that," Mara pointed and Venkat slammed the door in her face. "It's not going to heal fast, It's silver!" she yelled as Venkat rushed Ro to the bathroom."Get lost!" he howled."Apparently I'm not allowed to go." Ro sat on the white bathtub and gave him a small smile which covered the sad one. Venkat rolled his eyes as he cleaned her wound. "You think she heard the whole conversation?" She asked. "Yeah." The alpha nodded. "She's going to try to stop you from going by using me," Ro explained. "I know and i already know how to stop her." The alpha had a smirk on his face. Ro sighed then star

It was the early hours of the morning when Venkat checked the boot of his car. It was still dark outside and the morning air was chilling, giving the inhabitants more time to sleep. But while the pack of Moon Glass was asleep, its alpha and his mate were wide awake. "Just five minutes and i promise you'll be out," he told Ro who was crouched inside the boot. The female nodded and sucked in a deep breath as she watched him close the boot. Venkat hurridely drove out of the pack as he could feel Ro gasping while minimizing the use of air. When he was out of the pack, he quickly opened the car boot and Ro breathed deeply. "Fresh air," she sighed as Venkat helped her into the passenger seat and passed her his sweater which she gratefully put on. "You think the plan is going to work?" Ro asked. "Of course," he replied with utmost optimism. As Venkat drove, Ro kept him entertained with chitchat and what was to come as they passed by trees and small mountains leaving the Moon Glass furt

"So is everyone going to ignore the fact that Ro has been acting different these past few days?"Apikai and Leke turned to look at Eun-Jae. The three men were in the kitchen sitting around the kitchen island as they enjoyed some vodka. The beta had suddenly spoken after being lost in thought and honestly, it was quite easy to overthink in these hard times. With Amara and her mother, Venkat on an almost impossible journey and Ro in the pack, left to deal with wounds of her tied soul. And oh, the pack was also experiencing lower sales and less supply of food. "Oh so we're ignoring?" Eun-Jae asked flatly. "You're right, she's not acting like herself," Leke spoke slowly as if he was just realizing it. "Yeah, she's not even bothered by the fact that she has a soul bond with someone. Do you think It's because she misses Venkat?" Apikai added, trying to put two and two together. "It could be but, he just left yesterday and she's been acting like that immediately he left."They say speak

They were on their way back to the pack. Very early in the morning, Venkat, Ro and the witch had gotten in the car and set on their own to the origin of their problems. Unlike when they were going where everywhere and everything was gloomy, coming back to the pack was different. The air was different and this dawn had a soft red glow as the disc of the sun was already peeking out. Unlike the shadowy dawn they had experienced while going to the Zenith pack, now, they were experiencing the light floating of clouds over the morning twillight. While Venkat drove, Ro was seated beside him in the passenger seat and the old lady sat in the back as the omega-luna looked at Briseis through the front mirror. The woman who was looking out the window humming softly to herself suddenly spoke. "I can feel your eyes on me." "How will i get her hair? She won't offer it to me willingly." Ro replied, voicing out the thoughts that had kept her quiet since the beginning of the journey. Although the at

Spring had come and was almost going. Seedlings had sprouted, trees and flowers had blossomed pushing out of fertile ground with much delight. There was a fresh flowering smell in the cheery air and it seemed animals had multiplied. Vibrant green leaves formed canopies against the high temperature as lush meadows decorated the ground. Almost every morning, the people of Moon Glass pack would wake up to the serenading of the songbirds and at times, they'd wake up to the airy drizzling rain after which they'd bathe in the springtime sun.But while the people were filled with so much liveliness, anger and despair ingressed its alpha and luna respectively, like a tornado that seem so far away yet so close. It had been four months and Cecile was still missing. Ro's pregnancy had become visible to the pack; this, added to the spring air made everyone upbeat and joyous as they waited expectantly for the birth. But, the expectant mother was not comfortable with herself. In fact, she felt
