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
Wolf’s Bane DECISIONS
“Alright Mr. Fucks, give us a just few minutes to print this out and sign your certification for you then you can be on your way.”“That’s actually Fuchs, doc. And I’m glad to hear I’m getting certified for office work.”“Oh, I’m sorry I must have misread your name. You’ll have your papers in just a few minutes then you can go.”Suuuure… If I wasn’t in a hurry to get back to the village, I would have given you a piece of my mind for “misreading” my name, Doctor Gabrielle Ebit. Like an hour-long sermon on respect and complaints! But I still have to find this Chin bitch before going back home, so you’re safe… for now.“While waiting, is it ok to take a short nap on your couch, Dr. Gabrielle?”“Go ahead, Mr. Fuchs. After all, my next patient appointment is still a few hours from now.”Perfect! “Thanks a lot, Ma’am…”+++Leena, still there? Did you hear everything we were saying Delta?Not all of it, Eron…just for the mindlink just the “friends” part… And the rest? Were you actually eav
Wolf’s Bane ADDITIONAL DECISIONS
“Oh dear, I may have arrived at an improper time. I’m so sorry… I’ll just come back another time, forgive me...’The Oro Vista Alpha owner gasped in surprise at the elderly visitor who made a sudden visitation at her home, then immediately rushed to him with arms wide open in welcome. “What are you talking about Senyor Antonio? I don’t dare deny the town’s council head the chance to enjoy a piece of his favorite Earl Grey cake and a cup of tea in my home, even for a few minutes. Please don’t go.”“But what about your guests? I can see quite a number of new faces, my dear.”“They are all our new boarders Senyor, not unless you see Leena and Jack as new arrivals.”“I see, but who are your new boarders?”“Let me introduce them to you while the children prepare us some tea and also, some of your beloved cake.”The first group of people among the mayhem of individuals to enter the room were the playing Wolf kids. Macky was trying to create a semblance of order among the riotous youngsters
Wolf’s Bane RECOVERY
Hey Chin, you there? Just taking a chance here but if you can hear me, it’s Max… I’m hoping you can perceive me, so we can continue our plan to make Diwana and the city guy, Eron, all mine.Chin’s eyes opened wide upon hearing the dead squirrel’s statements in her head. I know that voice, I’m sure of it. But can it be that he has gotten strong enough to reach me here in the city?Slowly, the now conscious witch sat up to check on her surroundings. Hmmm, this does not look like my bedroom or my mansion’s medical center. I might be at the downtown hospital. But for how many days have I been here?Chin, can you hear me?Yes, I can! you don’t need to scream at me, MAX! I’m awake now!GOOD! I knew somehow that would work! What happened to you the past few days? It’s almost a week since you last connected with me, woman!”ALMOST A WEEK?! WHO COULD BE POWERFUL ENOUGH TO DO THAT TO ME?!How the hell should I know? All I know is you suddenly stopped talking to me back at the village’s mountain

GETTING READY TO GET MARRIED
“I just can’t believe how fast things are going for you, Boss!” stated an awed Orlie as he looked at his employer in admiration. “Imagine, you suddenly were asked to be someone’s best-man just yesterday. Suddenly, you’re already the groom today, even if you only had a girlfriend for only few hours. Wow, talk about being instantly promoted!”“Indeed, he is boy,” a slightly unfamiliar middle-aged male voice spoke from the open screen and front door of the Alpha mansion. “And that would mean that he is extremely lucky, right son?”“Mom, Dad, Sis, you’re all here!” exuberantly exclaimed Jack, feeling a little sheepish at the realization that he was so focused on his future wife that he completely forgot to tell his family about his sudden wedding even through text message. “Where are your kids, Sorah?”“They’re just outside playing with the other children of this house,” Sorah informed his younger brother with a honeyed giggle. “Shame on you, Jack, for not telling us about your plans to ma
WANTED AND UNWANTED GUESTS
“Hey you there, time to eat up. Your meal is here now!”Max looked up from the wooden bed that he was sitting on inside the small metal jail cell where he was earlier incarcerated. The two city cops who had arrested him almost a day before had took mug shots, his fingerprints and the whole she-bang, acting like they were in an actual police precinct . He was actually wondering if he will be given something to eat since his grumbling stomach was already telling him how much he needed some food right at that moment. And he was so famished that he was very willing to eat anything that was offered to him.Well, it seems his captors aren’t such a bad lot after all, since here they were providing him more than the usual amount of sustenance. As he glanced at the mounds of grub on the aluminum tray that the spindly male youth was offering him at that moment he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.“Thank God, what took you guys so long? I haven’t eaten anything since yesterday, dude!”
MAGICAL EXPOSÈ
“OK Mama Diwana, we’re finally here now in the kitchen. What were you planning to show us?” the eldest Wolf offspring asked a little eagerly as her younger siblings excitedly surrounded her and echoed her words.“Yes, mommy Di, what is it all about?” the youngest inquired in her cutest voice.“You can tell us, Mom Diwa. We promise that we’ll be able accept it, whatever it may be,” encouraged the sharpest of the three, which happened to be the only male teen in the Alpha villa at that time.Eron’s charming smile stretched slightly wider at what he heard from the young trio. He then lightly nudged his hesitant and still nervous mate forward toward their adopted kids to encourage and strengthen her confidence even further. The wolf-man also nodded to his Twinny, the middle-aged female Merhi spouse and Police Chief Bilal who were all cheerfully grinning back at him.“Go on cherry tart, they are all eagerly waiting for your admission and they promise to accept it all,” Eron stated with an
A HOPEFUL REVELATION
“My children, can I talk to all three of you in private,” the tanned long-haired adoptive mom requested as she slowly entered the still half-filled living room since the first batch of elderly Ärgers had yet to return with their promised catch of rabbits and hares. “This is really important to me and I need to share this special secret of mine with all of you before our city visitors arrive.”“OK, Mama. Where shall we talk about it?” the eldest Wolf offspring asked for herself and her very curious siblings as she stood up from the armchair that was beside her beloved Orlando Kyle’s high-tech motorized wheelchair. “Although, I think I already have a feeling about what you are planning to tell us.”The young surrogate mother looked at her step-daughter with a hesitant look before speaking again, “I would prefer that I tell you in the kitchen since I plan to show you proof of what I will reveal there,” Diwana stated in a determined but still anxious tone.“Go on, kids! You just get to th
FACING THE TRUTH
“Dad, what’s this I hear that you’ll be sending your special troops to help the governor with keeping his people under control?”The Brigadier General could not answer his son Bien’s query at once. He was fully aware of how his sole offspring sees the Kahlagus despite them saving him and his mom from the killer flu that ravaged the country about a couple of years ago. His only boy, who is now a young man, is part of a social awareness group that is on the verge of being called resurgent if not for their connection to the government’s army and their continuous assistance to the public during major natural disasters.But due to their consciousness of the present socio-political situation of their city, which includes the corrupt actions of current political bigwigs of their state, Bien Castaṅeda is very much against any kind of assistance that his military father would give to the Kahlagus. This new decision by his Dad is not going well due to their recent closeness. True, Bien’s parent
A LOVING REMINDER
“Diwana, I know you’re in there,” Eron soothingly said as he knocked on his new spouse’s bedroom door in the hopes that she would let him in without much fuss or fight. “I just want to talk, honey pie. Would that be OK?”The muscular Charmer waited a moment, but due to his enhanced hearing, he was sure that his troubled wife was already rising from her bed and was about to open her bedroom door. Within half a minute, she had already done so, but it was obvious from her facial expression that she was anything but all right.Eron instantly held her close as his fingers rubbed her long, wavy, ebony tresses before she could say anything.“Why do you look so down, Di? You can tell me, alright? What’s bothering you, pumpkin pie?”“I can’t do it, my love. I feel so weird doing it. It feels as if I’m not even a normal human being,” Diwana sobbed as a warm tear or two fell on her caring man’s shirt. “I’m afraid the kids may see me differently when I use my magical powers… Or even you!”Eron h
OPENING CLOSED DOORS
Eron speed-walked into the kitchen and was surprised to only find his Twinny with Mr. and Mrs. Merhi looking unsure at each other. In front of them was a large violet bucket of dark green liquid beside the large dining table with all the food items that they planned to feed the Ogre’s men upon their arrival.“Twinny, where is my wife?” the bulked-up former city man asked hesitantly.“She got a little overwhelmed when Tess and I told her all the possible things she could do with her Faye powers,” the dejected Luna stated with a crestfallen sigh. “I think she was overcome knowing everything that she could do, Twinny. But her Tikbalang Father assured us that it is absolutely essential that she learn the majority of her powers because of the upcoming battles that she would need to face.”“I feel that Senyor Armanaz means to pit her against that whore witch Chin Kahlagu when Eleuthera finally goes full force, Eron,” the chubby Police Chief admitted as he lovingly held his wife Tessy to his
ASKING PERMISSION
“Hello, mom! It’s Emily…”At that point, Jack could hear various muffled but delighted female squeals and male yells in the background of his new fiancé’s phone call’s other line, which was obviously on speaker mode. He could easily tell that Em’s family was truly rejoicing over her return to Mendez.After a few moments of awkwardly answering her parent’s and siblings’ questions about her sudden disappearance from their village, the young light-haired lumberyard owner cleared his throat to make the female abductee aware of his presence along with his willingness to rescue her from telling more about her past traumatic experiences to her very curious family members.“Oh, by the way, I’d like to introduce a longtime friend to everyone there. Everybody, this is Jack. Remember the guy who gifted me the so-called alabaster box as you all called it years before? He would like to talk to you, Dad, if it’s OK?”“Yes, I do remember him, daughter. Put him on the line, please…”At her male paren
SPECIAL INTRODUCTIONS
“Eron, I’m already done with your request,” Madame Tess declared with a pleased voice as she entered the half-filled living room. “We can now use it to enchant the food items that you plan to feed to your Ärger guests.”The hazel-eyed Charmer immediately stood up from the flowery-patterned armchair where he was lounging and gave a small nod and smile of approval at what he heard. “That’s wonderful news, Mrs. Merhi! Now all we have to do is drizzle your potion on the foodstuff in the dining room table and kitchen counters.”“Leave that to us and your Twinny, son. But I would like to ask Diwana to join us so we can continue to teach her how to use her Faye magic.”“Of course, Madame. All you need to do is ask,” the smiling curvy mate said as she stood from the matching floral sofa, then quickly walked towards her renter slash magic mentor. “We can begin now, no problem.”“While you're doing that, we’ll just take our ride back to our rented shack and get those skinned bunnies so you can
