Wolf’s Bane HIDDEN TALENTS
“Hey bro, can you wait a bit? I just need to finish fixing this screen door. Kinda busted it last night when I got home.”Jack, who had just passed silently through the Oro Villa’s open gate, was taken aback by The Charmer’s statement. He immediately walked up to Eron who had his back turned, since the busy man was carefully painting something on the floor of the porch.“Whoa, how the heck did you…?” started the lumberjack boss as he walked up the porch steps, and then paused as he saw the former porch door split roughly in half - both wood and screen - lying at the other end of the porch. “Oh my God, what did you do to that poor door, bro? Looks like you did a piledriver on it or used a jackhammer.”“Something like that,” replied Eron in a slight monotone since he was concentrating on what he was currently doing, which was sanding the new door that he had just built from scratch. “Sometimes I don’t even know my own strength.”“Or your own skill. I mean you were able to tell that it w
Wolf’s Bane HIDDEN TALENTS AGAIN
“And what if you guys get into bigger trouble because Max makes a big deal out of this?”“If you have all the papers to prove your skill and competence, I don’t think Max will be a problem. Even if he brings his complaints to the Labor Department. Besides, he’s still the primary suspect in the recent accident that almost put Diwana and me in the hospital. If not for your presence of mind and quick save, I wouldn’t even know what would’ve happened then, bro.”“It’s my pleasure and I really don’t want to cause that much trouble for you or your business, bro,” sighed Eron as he put the brush and tray with the other tools that Jack had placed in the corner.“Bro, if there's anyone who has caused so much trouble for me and my family’s business, it isn’t you. Take my word for it. So, are you done?”“Yeah, I think that’s about it. What do you think?”Jack then took out his mobile and took a shot at the new screen door. Its very recent coat of varnish still needed to dry out, but as it was, i
Wolf’s Bane LADIES IN WAITING
“He left with Jack a while ago so they could fetch Orlando and his sisters already.”Diwana breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Erica’s statement. Of course, Leena could not help but hear, considering her enhanced senses. But she was puzzled by the young widow’s reaction.After all, if the only reason she didn’t want Eron to be there and meet her, the friendly but weird neighbor best friend, was because she had a hunch that Diwa had secret feelings for her new renter. If that was the case, then there really was no reason to worry.She’s the ultimate keeper of secrets, and she has proven this to countless people, including two of the latest Alphas of SilverClaw. And the nature of this confidential information was a lot deeper and more intense than the mere attraction of her friend to a werewolf’s son.However, for Diwana, that wasn’t the real reason for her discomfort.He saw and heard what I did last night when I dispelled whatever it was that was trying to connect to him through t
Wolf’s Bane MORE SHOCKING SURPRISES
There were two men in the hospital room where a nurse had just entered. She had a bad day and a no-nonsense attitude which was quite evident to the patient who was lying on the bed. Unfortunately for the other male, who was sitting beside the bed and reading a magazine, he was quite taken by the nurse’s looks and figure that he wasn’t able to tell that she was actually quite pissed and a bit unapproachable.“It’s time for your x-rays, Sir.”“Oh good, I was wondering when that would be.”“Ok, so I’ll be going with him…” cut in the sitting man with a smile.“Oh no, Sir. We aren’t allowed to let anyone be with the patient during this time. It’s hospital regulations.”“But…”“You can just wait for him here. I promise you, he will be back within a few hours.”“A few hours? It’s really going to take that long, nurse?”“Considering the magnitude of the damage done to him, yes, it will take that long, Sir.”“Don’t worry, Nick. I doubt that in the state that I’m currently in I would be able t
Wolf’s Bane FAMILY FIRST
There’s always something about families and relatives being together that would affect the former Right Hand in ways that he didn’t find appealing. Sure, he was still touched by the sight of siblings together, or parents and their kids, the same way he got really attached and emotional with the family that accepted him in the Oro Villa…But there would really be small scenes that he would witness that, unfortunately for him, touched a raw cord every now and then.And one of those scenarios was playing out in front of him right now…“Alrighty, y’all I’m just so glad that my nephew and nieces are gonna be a-stayin’ with good folks like yourselves. But just so we’re clear if I find out that you're being dastardly with them in one way or the other, you’ll be answering to me, my friends, and our ladies, you hear me?”The slim and tall senior had his sinewy arm around Orlando and was smiling as if he was the proud father and not the uncle of the sheepish young man. Eron swallowed hard as he
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…
