In The PresentLeandro remained on the grace of Luciano. It hurt to think about the past when he and Luciano hung out together and now Luciano was buried underneath all these soil. After what Luciano had done, Leandro and his father were thrown into a frenzy, trying to figure out a solution to what Luciano had done but the search was futile for the next two days and just when Leandro was about to give up on all of it, his father brought up the crazy idea of killing the moon blessed to pass the powers onto him. He had been against it initially as the thought of killing two innocent souls who were blessed by the moon goddess herself made him shiver but his father had assured him that they were going to be shedding the blood of two for the sake of the entire Pack. And then that night, the night before he was to be embarrassed publicly for being unable to shift in front of the entire Pack, Leandro had been bundled out of his room by his father and that was the night the ritual was done

Leandro buttoned up the last button on his shirt, staring into the mirror. Even after a long bath that mostly comprised of him sitting under the shower, his dark eye bags were but gone. Leandro ran his hands through his hair and breathed out heavily. He could not stay without Larisa any longer. He was going to go meet her to explain everything to her and beg her as much as possible until she forgave him. "Alright. Let's do this, Leandro" he looked away from the mirror and grabbed his phone and car key, ignoring the headache that troubled him. He knew very well that no matter how bad he was feeling at the moment, Larisa was feeling worse. Betrayed, hurt, heartbroken. She was feeling all of that. He walked out of his room and headed down, out of the mansion to his car. The heads of the guards bowed in respect but none of them uttered a word, afraid that Leandro could get rid of anyone if it irked him at the moment. Leandro got into his car and ignited it into motion. He drove off, t

Larisa shut her eyes tight and cuddled the pillow even tighter as she heard rain falling. She had been expecting Leandro to leave when the clouds darkened with rain but he had stayed back. And now it was raining but she had not heard his car zooming out. 'Maybe the bastard just got into his car to shelter himself from the rain' she thought and tried her best to sleep. She had eventually had biscuits and tea and every inch of her physical being felt grateful for the meal. The tears were no longer coming. It seemed like she had ran out of tears but it still hurt as much as it did the previous day when she had just found all of this out. Minutes passed and Larisa hated the fact that she was curious to know if he has at least taken shelter from the rain. She slowly got up from her bed and walked towards the window. Slowly, she pulled the curtains apart and peered down and there he was, under the pouring rain. He was totally drenched but he was still there, standing and staring up at

Leandro reached his hand to Larisa's hands and squeezed her hand gently, his other hand on the steering wheel of the car. Larisa looked at him and gave him a small smile, pulling the bouquet of flowers closer to her with her other free hand. The ride to the Alphas burial site was quiet as both Larisa and Leandro had no idea what they were supposed to say to each other in that situation but their eyes communicated more than enough. They glanced at each other every now and then, their eyes reassuring the both of them."We are here" Leandro said softly, pulling the car to a halt in front of the Alphas burial site. He aligted from the car, walked to the other side of the car and pulled the door of the car open for Larisa. Larisa stepped out of the car and Leandro took one of the two bouquet of flowers she had in her hands. He shut the door and opened the backseat door, pulling out another bouquets of flowers from in there. "Who did you get this one for?" Larisa asked. "Luciano" L

Leandro pushed the door of the room opened and found Larisa staring at him with a smile but the smile vanished the moment she saw the look on his face and the blood stain on his shirt. "Andro! What happened?" She asked, rushing over to his side."Luciano..." "What's with Luciano?" Larisa asked when Leandro stopped talking. "He was under a bewitchment. Everything he did was not his will. He did it under the control of Clarence" Larisa gasped in shock at the sudden turn of events. "Clarence! That evil witch did all of this. She caused all of this to happen and she caused me to kill Luciano. Luciano was innocent but I... I killed him" Leandro looked at his hands and they shook. Larisa quickly held his both hands in hers and pulled him in a hug, her petite body holding him tight to her. "It wasn't your fault, Andro. It was not your fault. You had no idea. You were deceived for twelve years, Andro. You... You are a huge victim of this entire manipulation" "I still killed him. I kill
