Wolf’s Bane UPDATING THE CONTACTS
The digital melody of a cellular phone could be heard in the room. The owner of the mobile had chosen to position himself at a spot underneath the CCTV camera and had also double-locked the door of his office before answering the call on the fifth ring.Let’s tag the one who made the call as caller number one, shall we?Caller #1: Hello, how are you doing right now?Caller #2: Relieved that I’m hearing from you. All these requests from the governor and that damned snitch are driving me crazy. Glad that you finally called. This gives me something to hold on to, right now.Caller #1: We’re doing everything as promised, Sir, don’t worry. And we will be giving you more updates once things start progressing. Meanwhile, we really need to have that meeting so we can familiarize ourselves with everyone involved in The Plan.Caller #2: I’m not so sure if I’m at ease at exposing myself to the other members of your group, other than yourself and The Ogre. I hope you don’t mind me saying so, but
Wolf’s Bane PRE-DINNER TREATS
A few hours before lunch, somewhere in the mountain village, an elderly couple were talking to three young men on their porch. One of them had already parked a uniquely styled and customized jeep in front of the house and joined the four on the front porch for cookies and lemonade.“I’m just thankful that at least now we know you will be having dinner with us. We were waiting for Jack to finalize a date for us,” said the only female as she gave a glass of lemonade to the hazel-eyed young man sitting opposite her at the porch table.“I’m sorry, it’s not really his fault. There’s been a lot of things happening out of the blue, like us being here right now at your home, Ma’am,” the young handsome male said as he took the glass and sipped it, enjoying how cold and delicious the drink was.“Yes, you’re obviously going to defend my son, and I already like you for that, Eron,” said the oldest man in the group with a pleasant smile. “We will see you later after you’re done with the move, alri
Wolf’s Bane INTER-MISSIONS
The Left Hand was wearing a full-body military outfit that was all black, skin-tight, Kevlar-protected, and complete with a full mask. Of course, his guns, holsters, and massive utility belt blended into his outfit, and was hardly noticeable against the ebony material of his clothes. It was the perfect ensemble to blend into the dark corners of the elegant twenty-four-seven whorehouse that was masquerading as a restaurant in the morning and a videoke bar at night. He found himself smiling as he kept himself hidden behind a group of large modern-styled statues portraying different sexual positions with the appropriate - or inappropriate, depending on who was viewing it - facial expression.One of the statues’ faces was reminding him of Bren’s shocked look earlier on and he couldn’t help but go back to the memory while trying his best not to make a sound that might give him away.+++“But h-how… What did you… I mean, how can you be…”“Standing? Walking around?”“YES! And you can even…
Wolf’s Bane SOMETHING HORRIBLY FAMILIAR
Max was now on his way to the lumberyard while humming one of his original compositions to himself. And why shouldn’t he? After all, he may have been released from the hospital last night with his arm in a sling but he was able to visit his beloved secret 'stash' that contained numerous items and info about his adored 'obsession' right after he was released. And it has been a while since he has visited his precious 'treasure'.It's definitely worth hiding and storing since they can be misunderstood as illegal by some, Or even criminal by most, but to Max, it’s all justified and right in his twisted line of thinking…Since he really and truly believed Diwana was secretly in love with him and was only playing hard-to-get.This is why right after his intensely personal and private man-to-man talk with Mason, he went ahead with his plan to gather and add to his 'proof' of Diwa’s unseen so-called secret love for him; so he can show Mason the 'absolute truth' about his seductress and adulte
Wolf’s Bane DISCOVERIES AND EXPLANATIONS
Jack didn’t know how to start, so he took a long breath and made the plunge while hoping for the best.“Diwa believes that she’s cursed based on the many people she’s lost in the past, long before she got here,” he began with a sigh. “It got worse when her only son died last year. along with her husband Mason. We tried to convince her otherwise but the timing was too much of a coincidence for her we couldn’t convince her otherwise…”’ Jack ended with a helpless tone.‘Are you serious, bro? It’s the modern times, man. How could she believe that crapful of nonsense in this day and age?” Eron interjected in disbelief.“Not too loud or the kids might hear, they don’t like it when they hear people talk shit about their Mama.”The A-Bomb’s thoughts: Well, who am I to judge when I have a psychic brother… Plus, I come from a long line of werewolves! But how come her surrogate kids are alive and well? How can anyone explain that? And that still doesn’t clarify who was that woman in my head last
Wolf’s Bane PARTNERS AND PROMISES
“I’m really sorry Eron, we REALLY tried to remind her of the promise you both made to each other but she left early with Leena and we couldn’t stop either of them.”“But they promised to be finished really fast and be back here by the time you guys get back with the new worker guy and his sisters.”“If I didn’t know any better, she just wanted to make Leena not meet you, while also trying to avoid you, big brother. We just didn’t stand a chance against them since they are both independent, strong but stubborn women…” Macky explained with a worried tone. “Did you guys, fight or something?”“Not that I know of, Macky…” the werewolf ex-assassin surreptitiously lied. “I do hope that whatever I’ve done against her will be forgiven; and she’ll talk to me again, eventually”“Of course, she will man. That’s Diwa we’re talking about. She never held anything against anybody, even the ones in her country who called her cur… er… you know what I mean…” The lumberyard boss was quick to change the s
Wolf’s Bane WELCOME TO THE FAMILY
Hero found himself smiling to himself as he snuggled into his pristine hospital bed, content that his mission was a success. Not to mention, he ended with a fruitful secret meeting and has now formed new alliances.Including the once-hostile Nick, who was now sitting content and appeased beside the Ogre’s metal bed. It took quite an audience to win back the loyal giant, so they could let him in on their side.Right after the governor’s sharp and quick-thinking Left Hand ended his task, he got a text message from one of their secret sources informing him that since his beloved wife was now on her way to his unfamiliar and far-off hiding place to be safe against Ed Kahlagu and his minions, he’s now opening himself to the cohorts of the plan.Hence, after he and his police staff arrested the employees and released the victims of the governor’s prostitution den which Hero had infiltrated, he was amenable to talking to Nick about the Ogre’s plan of ending Kahlagu’s reign of corruption, cri
Wolf’s Bane ADMISSIONS
And even if the rookie lumberyard employee was having none of it, even furtively trying to get the young widow to a private nook so they could talk… So far, none of his moves were working… At least, not YET, anyway… Well, I know that best friend of hers won’t be a problem, because, first off; we’re from the same pack and I’m sure she won’t tell Diwa my secret. But if by chance she has spoken to my landlady about HER being a werewolf, at least I’m sure that they pinkie-swear it or something to keep it undisclosed. Also, this delta seems to be unaware of what I’ve become or what I’m doing here. She may have been an agent for my brother when he first became an Alpha, then he kept her here when he found out about my abandoning the governor and my position as the Right Hand. So yeah, I’m safe so far… But how much of what I think Chin has done should I tell Diwa, without opening a can of worms that could possibly expose my dark past? Yeah, I can start with assuring she’s not cursed then ta
