SUNSHINE:"Collect and select?" Knoxx asked, his face not even happy. "You're making yourself cheap again, Sunshine. When will you change that mindset?"Cheap? "Is that how you view me that I am cheap? The same reason why you cannot accept me, right?"How unfair to be jealous. I was unhappy when I was always involved with different men. Not only did he think of me cheap, but he also thought I was a slut even if the only man in my life was Jericho.Knoxx did not know that and I did not want to change his mind to gain his sympathy. "Collecting and selecting is not common among us werewolves. We mate for life.""Yeah? Is there something wrong with that?" I asked, my voice flat. "You have to remember that I am completely single now, Knoxx. No one can dictate what I should do or not. You don't have the right to decide what I should do with my life.""Is that so?" he asked while sighing softly. His shoulders wagged as if he was carrying all the burden of the world. "If that's your preferen

SUNSHINE:"Reject you, Luna Sunshine?" Dante asked in disbelief. His eyes kept on glancing at Knoxx and me. It consoled me that someone was still concerned about this relationship. About this bond. I thought…it was only me. I really wanted this to work. To give this a try because who knew? Knoxx might be the one for me if we will only set aside our differences and our past.“You heard what I said. I rejected Jericho during my wedding day, and I cannot reject him in the same year.”I hugged myself when the cold air blew in my direction. It was freezing now, but none of us wanted to stay inside. There was something in the cold that calmed me. "Why would he reject you? Why would you reject him? This is driving me nuts."Everything was simple, actually. The very reason was that Knoxx was not ready for this relationship. Knoxx did not want me, but I did not want to embarrass myself even more.I acted by sealing my lips. "That's all I can say for now for myself. If you want to know more,

SUNSHINE:The neon lights had been flicking on and off while my body could not stop from moving and following the beat. There were a lot of people surrounding us who were also dancing on the dance floor, and some even started kissing as if no one was watching.'Aren't you tired, Sunny?' Jericho asked through our link. Still moving my hips while sweat dropped down from my chest, I answered, 'Nooo! I'm still enjoying myself.'It was already three o’clock in the morning. I should be at home now, tucked in bed beside Knoxx’s bed. But instead of doing that, I was dancing myself to the beat of the music.'Okay. Tell me if you want to go,' he answered. Jericho had introduced me to this club found in the middle of the heart of the town. The place was cramped and looked abandoned during the day, but became alive during the night. Thalia never told me about such places. I thought this town was boring in the evening. I jumped while raising both of my hands at the beat of the music and danc

SUNSHINE:Instead of going home, I found myself entering Thalia’s coffee shop. She automatically smiled at me upon seeing me enter as I approached the counter.Dawn was already breaking which also meant a couple of hours from now, Knoxx would be giving his decision.Jericho's confession about Amy and her child was still ringing in my mind. I wanted to ask Knoxx about it. If those were true, how would I start? Knowing Knoxx, he was good at denying it. Or he might evade it. Whatever. All I wanted was to disappear for a moment to think of what I should do. The smell of coffee here made my mouth water. I so loved coffee more than the beverages inside the bar. “Hi, Sunny!” she said, stopped for a moment, looked at me, and scrunched her nose. "Hi."“Oh. Seemed like someone had a wild night,” she commented while raising her eyebrows. “You smell of...let me think. Did you go to a bar? Hey. You never invited me.” Thalia pouted."I'm so sorry, but I will make it up to you next time."Actu

SUNSHINE:The men were agile and fast and had the intention to kill. Thalia fought the three of them while I could not move my feet to fight alongside her. Gael was already helping Thalia and the man could fight while all I could do was watch them. This was my fault! If I did not enter that bar...if I did not come home...if I did not leave Jericho...then...then...A gasp escaped my lips when Thalia was wounded in her legs. Blood poured like a waterfall. The man was about to attack again, but not minding her wound, Thalia was able to attack first and stabbed him in his stomach, putting enough pressure.The man cursed loudly and was about to hit him, but adrenaline kicked in and I was able to move my feet and kicked him in his stomach with all my might, especially on his stomach. The man staggered and writhed in pain on the cold floor. Two more to go. Gael was fighting with agility as if he were a warrior. Maybe he was one of his pack's warriors. If not for him, Thalia and I would
