They are still there, but their smiles are wavering.
“Yes, Buddy. Run now. Run and cross the border. ” Dad nods, watching me intently.
I listen to him and start running to the tree he had previously pointed out. But my heartbeat is out of control.
I have this sinking feeling in my stomach, something absolutely weird. I don’t know-
Just when I reach the tree, I hear my Dad screaming. The strange gurgling noises push me to a halt and make me face the scene again.
“Don’t look! ” Mom shrieks.
Just when my eyes meet her, a wolf’s teeth sink into her neck and rip her head off. The world comes to a stop, blood splattering everywhere.
Mom’s wide eyes stare into mine, tears rolling down before I see her head hit the floor.
‘Sh-“
My cold hands unclench, as I follow my Dad’s voice and find him struggling under the teeth of another wolf. He is fighting, trying to shift into his warrior wolf, but the other wolves are stronger and more in number.
As I witness, they pull Dad’s body apart. Everything goes silent. Blood taints the forest, turning dark under the darkness.
“Mom. “My voice doesn’t sound like mine. It’s as if I have turned into a statue, unable to understand what’s happening.” Dad.”
Rooted on that spot, I try to blink, move, or think, but all I can do is watch blankly.
Mom. Dad. You said you will always be with me.
“You said you will be with me. Always. “I growl, sitting up in the bed.
My awareness returns as I sense something soft clenched between my arms. My breathing is labored, and my body is trembling.
It’s the same nightmare I see every night. The night when I lost my parents is where I am stuck.
“Massimo. ” A gentle hand lands on my back, softly running down and then up.
I suck in deep breaths, trying to make sense of why I am feeling this rush of electric energy and the warmth between my arms and inside my chest.
“Massimo. Are you okay?” She whispers again.
I blink, drawing my head back only to realize I have been snuggling into a pretty neck. My body stiffens as my eyes meet the beautiful pair of grey orbs.
Ayla.
She is staring at me with a concerned look in her eyes. Her soft lips quiver nervously. Under the dim lights of my room, while sitting so close to me, she appears irresistible. I lean in, my forehead meeting hers.
Ayla. Her name echoes inside my head.
Her vanilla scent wraps around me, pulling me towards her like a fucking moth to a flame. I found her sexy when I saw her for the first time after so long and realized she was my mate. Now, after tasting those lips, I find her like a drug.
Why did Moon Goddess make her my mate? Is this her way of punishing me?
Well, the hard fucking fact! I won’t let her punish me. I will keep taking this potion to suppress my wolf side to make sure Ayla never recognizes me as her mate.
“Ayla. ” I whisper, tilting my head.
Ayla Alvarez, I correct myself.
“I heard you screaming and thought-“
“What the fuck did you think?” I snap, pulling my head back.
What was I fucking doing?!
“Massimo, I-” She trails off, her hands still wrapped around my body.
Until some time ago, she appeared scared of my touch. Now, she is readily touching me.
My cock tightens at the thought of taking advantage of her lack of fear and get another taste of her lips or maybe find my way inside her pussy, but my rage pushes those thoughts away.
Everything that happened to me, everything that was taken away from me, it is all because of her.
“You were-“
“I told you to not appear in front of me until I want to see you! ” I interrupt her and rise from the bed.
She looks surprised at my sudden outburst but I can’t give a fuck about it. I grab her upper arm and drag her toward the bathroom.
“Massimo, what are you doing?!” She gasps.
“Showing you why you must not fuck with me and cross the line again! “I growl, pushing her under the shower.
AYLA
I was restless in the new place. Unexpectedly, the room Massimo gave me was not a storeroom but a big bedroom equipped with everything I could imagine.
But I still couldn’t sleep. My mind kept telling me that I should go out once I stopped hearing Massimo’s movements and scan the whole place to find out routes of escape and things that might help me in case Massimo tried anything.
Call me paranoid for good reasons, but I couldn’t trust that man not to barge into my room in the middle of the night and take advantage of me again. Or worse, he could try to kill me and I was not ignoring that thought.
I was not idiot enough to sleep peacefully under the same roof as my father’s enemy and the man who blackmailed me.
However, a small voice in my head tried to stop me from roaming his home at night. I shouldn’t go out alone and remain locked inside my room, it said.
I have never actually listened to that voice though.
That’s why I found myself checking the windows and doors in the house, scanning the sharp objects, even the lamps. But it all stopped the moment I heard loud groans as if someone was in pain.
Call it my bad luck, but I recognized that voice instantly. It was Massimo. He was in pain. For some reason, that thought unsettled me instead of satisfying me.
And so, I followed the noise and ended up in his room. Surprisingly, he had not even locked his door and left it ajar. The lights in his room were all turned on, as he twisted in his bed.
This told me that he was not afraid of me creeping up on him and killing him. I was no threat to him, like he was to me.
That thought instantly left me when I observed him screaming in his sleep.
“M-Mom. Dad. You promised.” He kept repeating the same words.
