158. Stealing a treasure
A silent shadow raced through the forest until it reached a mansion hidden in the middle of nowhere, heavily shielded by spells and protections. He had nearly consumed an entire bottle of that woman's blood, so for a limited time, he was like a true shadow.He slipped into Lucian's mansion, unsure where the fabled golden egg he was searching for was. It was likely in a treasure room or something similar.Voices in the kitchen indicated that people were gathered there. Though he was supposed to be hidden, it was best not to take risks, mainly since powerful beings lived in this house.A familiar scent hit his nose, and he headed towards one of the rooms on the second floor.A shadow slipped under the door and snuck into a dark corner of the room.He was astonished to recognize the Omega looking out the window towards the forest.It was the same one who had done Estela the favor of attacking in those caves, where Alpha Elijah nearly caught him.Fortunately, he had taken precautions t
1. A hasty escape
Olivia walked through the kitchen, the knife clutched tightly in her trembling hand.She was still in her white hospital pajamas and barefoot, having dropped her slippers when she jumped, with great effort, over the short fence of her own house.Olivia walked around the dimly lit room.She knew the exact location of every piece of furniture, every lamp, every ornament.This had been her home for nearly eight years, the home she had shared in a marriage she believed to be true and real, but which was as false as all the feelings "her dear husband" had professed for her.The same man who was now upstairs, probably with another woman.Olivia knew it, her sixth sense told her, just as she knew the day her older sister would die.She cried and kicked to keep her from celebrating with her friends, but since she was only an eleven year old girl, no one paid any attention to her.At midnight, her parents were notified that their teenage daughter had been stabbed and raped in a dark alley in t
2. Temptation in a human body
Olivia had been in this beautiful place for days.As much as her depression tried to drown her, the beauty of everything her eyes saw forced her out of her self-pity.She felt at home, even though she was living in one of the rooms of the inn in this rustic village lost in the woods and mountains. After a journey of days, they arrived here, a picturesque village with houses made of stone and wood, but although they looked rustic on the outside, they had all the comforts of modern life on the inside.It was not a poor or backward place at all, it had a lot of development, it just seemed that its inhabitants liked to be away from the world and curious strangers.She had been here for more than a week, and although Noah tried everything to get her to stay at John's house, she refused, insisting on staying at the inn.She felt that she had already upset her friend too much, that her madness had even put her in danger of being arrested as an accomplice.Dressed in blue jeans with a thermal
3. Night Stalker
- I... I'm so sorry... a Land Rover crossed my path and I couldn't avoid it - she apologized with a flushed and embarrassed face as she showed the innkeeper the masterpiece left over from the accident.- A gray Land Rover? - William asked her suddenly and Olivia nodded silently, thinking it was the last question she expected to hear.- It's all right, accidents happen, don't worry, a few hammer blows to the old thing and it'll be as good as new - he said without giving the matter much thought.- Paul, come and help bring the crates down! He called to the kitchen boy.- Here's your pay - he said to Olivia, handing her some bills that were actually much more than she expected. It seemed she was in such a precarious situation that everyone was giving her money today- No, no, that's not necessary, in fact that man gave me this money as compensation and I want you to deduct the repair of the car, I don't know how much it will be- she confessed the truth and handed him the wad of bills th
4. Testing my mate
Lugh knew at the exact moment that his mate wanted to run away from him, he knew that his wolf form was very intimidating and aggressive, but he wanted her to know that he could never ever hurt her, that they would die for her."Stop, you're scaring her," Lucian warned, for he could already feel the woman's pulse racing with fear and her pupils dilating in horror.It was no less than that, a wolf appeared out of the darkness, a wolf that reached up to her waist and desperately wanted to eat her, although not in the way she was thinking at the moment.Sure, Olivia was terrified, but it was her fault for being stupid, nature was very beautiful, but also wild. She was just a skinny weakling and didn't think it was possible to run back to the inn unharmed. Nevertheless, she had no choice. She turned and started to flee from the pursuing predator, leaving the blanket behind.Of course, she didn't get very far.She felt the huge wolf begin to chase her, as if it were playing with its dinn
5. A little girl lost in the forest
Olivia woke up the next day feeling a little strange all over, even her mind was a little confused because she thought she'd had too intense a dream, but she couldn't remember. She didn't have time to stay and analyze anything, she got dressed because her to-do list was long today. First, she had to buy a used car to take to her job interview. The day before she had found an ad where they were looking for a teacher for a little girl, they included room, board and a good salary, come on, the ideal job and she would try her luck. She drove into the forest in the old truck she had bought, looking at the GPS because they had only left an address and no phone number. After more than an hour of driving, she finally saw a huge mansion in the middle of a clearing. Cheering herself up, she called and said she was coming for the teacher interview. Everything in this incredible mansion reeked of luxury and money, and almost everything was made of wood and looked like it was part of th
6. Attack in the forest
Olivia did not stop for a second to analyze the situation, feeling that if she took a single breath, she would relive the nightmare of losing a little girl's life right in front of her eyes.Everything appeared in slow motion to her eyes, but it happened in mere seconds.At the moment she hugged the surprised girl, carrying her with the clear idea of fleeing the place, she felt an arrow pass through, wounding her arm superficially.She hissed at the painful sensation, but she wouldn't stop because her life and that of this unknown girl depended on it.Olivia shielded her small head against her chest and began to run desperately, trying to get into the shelter of the forest, knowing full well that she was no match for a grown man with a gun, praying for a miracle so that she could survive.She heard the hurried footsteps of the man behind her, coming much closer to her position.Olivia managed to reach the shelter of the tall trees, and several times she felt the arrows pass by her at
7. Do werewolves exist?
The wolf stopped at a safe distance from her, but its still fierce gaze and the blood dripping from the fur around its mouth gave Olivia no peace.There was a memory in her mind that wanted to come out, this animal seemed familiar and so close to her, but she knew it had to be a bad game of her madness. It was him or her, if only she could hurt him, take the girl and run. All pure fantasy, but she would make one last attempt to survive.Before her finger could pull the trigger, she watched in horror as the girl jumped from behind her back, out of the shelter of the tree, and ran toward the wolf.- Don't go! - Olivia shouted at her, reaching out to grab her and save her from certain death, but the little girl didn't stop until she reached the huge wolf and tried to wrap her short arms around its neck. Olivia's mouth fell open as the little girl began to scream "Daddy" and cry, and she tensed as the wolf lowered his furry head, but instead of devouring the cute baby in one bite, he j
