And now, back in the present, she had finally decided to leave the home that she had with her mate for the longest time. Yet, after so many previous years of hopping from one place to another, to hide from Hero’s past, and sadly, present, just as her friend promised, she and her family would have a future.

It’s just that she hated being away from him. or at the very least, hated not knowing what would be happening to him.

Especially now, when she knew he would be scarcer since she would be somewhere he’s assured that she and their children will be safe, and he had now decided to pursue his plans.

Plans that she knew nothing about…

And that’s what’s scaring her so much more than being far away from him.

“Sorah, it will be alright. I know it will, ok?”

The Ogre’s mate came back to the present as she heard her friend’s comforting tone and the touch of her hand on her arm. Alicia’s smile was sincere, but her voice was a bit shaky as she replied to Helena with a slow nod.

    “ALL RIGHT! Alright, sir, don’t hurt me! I’LL TELL YOU… I’ll tell you why I’m here!” said the stranger that Jack found hiding behind the bushes of his parent’s house.“YOU’D BETTER OR YOU’LL BE HAULED TO JAIL FOR TRESPASSING! NOW SPEAK!” ordered the muscled foreman as he stayed sitting down on the man’s abdomen with one hand holding his collar and the other aiming a fist at the man he just captured. “What on earth is happening out here? JACK? Who the heck is that?!” asked an elderly man who had rushed out of the front door and into the patio. “What is he doing here in the middle of the night?”“That’s what I’m trying to find out, Dad.”“Sir, I’m just someone who happened to be around here looking for a job. Please, let me stand up and explain myself.”“Jack, son, please… let him speak with a little dignity… But do check if he’s armed…”“I’m not!

    Katya gave him an impish smile and whispered her explanation as if she was sharing a secret. “Wuf Wuf said that you’re a nice big bad wolf, not like in the stories, because you will protect the three little pigs instead of eating them.”“Hey, tell your stuffed wolf I’m not a pig, ok? Ahahaha!” the slightly chubby Erica retorted while she put the loaded plates on the table.“Yeah, besides Eron isn’t eating anybody, right, Eron?” Macky interrupted while serving himself some steak.“Uhhhh, yeah… I’m not… that bad…” The Charmer replied awkwardly as he also started to serve himself. “Ummm… you want to join me later in fixing Scorpia, Macky?”“OH WOW, DO I? I definitely will!” cried the young lad, his eyes shining with excitement.“As long as you finish the dishes first, Mack. We already did the cooking…” Erica reminded him before taking a big bite of her steak.“Awww, but I cleaned our rooms a while ago already…”“And we cleaned Mama and Eron’s room so that doesn’t excuse you from washing

    “The way you say that, bro, makes it sound like something else happened between him and me... Damn, the hair on my arms is standing on end with the thought. Ugh…” groaned Eron as he grabbed a bigger screwdriver from one of the toolboxes around him.“Ahaha bro, you said that, I didn’t. Your green mind is making you think up thoughts that I never even said.”“Bro, that is NOT helping me and you said you were gonna help. Come on, you can start with you taking out these tires from the wheel rims. These I will definitely have to order because they can’t be salvaged anymore. Damn, whoever did this…”“Speaking of which, the axe we found with your stuff? I originally thought it was Max’s but it’s not his, apparently," Jack said as he started using a long metal tool to remove the tires from the rims.“I kinda thought it was him when I saw that axe. It’s one of the things I saw around the campsite when I went there. He even had one hanging from his hip on the day he told me Diwana was HIS… Fuck

    He would talk about his frustration while he and his beloved girlfriend sat in a secluded booth at the resort’s famous restaurant, in the midst of miniature tropical palm trees, rattan woven furniture, and small hanging chandeliers that peppered the wood-lined ceiling. “Oh baby, don’t worry too much about that. Maybe you'll find more info in the other places that we're going to visit,” said the girl in the pink mini-sun dress.“Yeah, but I don’t think my client will be happy to hear that kind of report today,” said the guy in the khaki shorts and sleeveless beach shirt.“But we’re supposed to leave tomorrow, right? I’m sure he will understand. Just tell him that you’ll go to the next place bright and early and will give him an update as soon as you arrive there,” assured Raquel with a smile as she sipped her piňacolada.Myron smiled back and drank from his Cuba libre. “Alright, baby doll, thanks.

    Meanwhile, in another apartment a few minutes away from the Alpha’s suites…“Mommy, is daddy gonna come live with us?” asked the little girl as she dressed up in her PJs, then grabbed her stuffed wolf toy.“Soon, baby, but not right now.”“Yeah Myrrh, he’s got a lot of important things to do, to make us safe. That’s what he told us before we went flying in the eli-kop-ter, right, Mama?” the boy asked as their mom tucked them into bed.“Yes, Victor. He promised to keep us safe.”“I hope he also promised to keep himself safe… he will be safe, right Mama?”“I hope so baby girl, I truly, TRULY hope so…” answered Alicia as she kissed her little girl goodnight.+++“Huh? I don’t remember washing this… and what could it be doing here on a no-laundry day?” Diwana looked in dip thought at the items that were hanging on the clothes line beside the house. “And, from here, I could swear that it’s Eron’s blanket and bed sheets, and I don't recognize this pair of jeans as any of the kids’ clothing…

    The two men finally noticed that what she was experiencing was nothing more than a deep fear, and, for a moment, the three adults remained standing, frozen in place.Jack was equally puzzled by Diwana’s distress, and the fact that she, who was hugging Eron like her life depended on it, was well known for keeping her distance from any of the guys in the village and the lumber camp just to make sure that they didn’t get any weird or wrong ideas about her intentions. The Lumberyard boss was now looking at the scene as if there was a giraffe with two heads right in front of him instead of his friends. And it was quite clear that their faces were really close to each other...“Diwa, please, tell me, what happened?” Eron asked, concern in his voice while he continued to feel his heart pounding strongly within his chest…The new renter's thoughts: Weren’t you supposedly living here to protect her?Eron was now reprimanding himself while paying close attention to his enhanced senses, trying

    “Would you like to tell me some more about what you felt?” Eron said, getting within inches from Diwana, and whispering in her ear, sending chills all over her body. His intoxicating smell was making it hard for her to focus on anything else but him. She hugged the blankets even tighter and bit her lip, trying to give an answer to him…“You wouldn’t believe me,” she said, her eyes reflecting all the bad memories that, what she thought was her curse, had given her. "If I told you..."“Try me,” he said in the same low tone, their cheeks almost touching, as they pretty much hid so the kids didn’t get to know about what was happening outside the dining area.“Well...” she made another attempt, “At times, I feel like my senses perceive more than usual, and most of those times, I feel like someone is watching me… and I feel really vulnerable and scared when that happens…”Eron’s hands curled into tight fists, but he made a huge effort to keep his tone serene and sweet.“That makes sense to

"What else do you mean?"“Don’t lie to me, brother…”Defeated, V sighed and started telling Eron.“Recently, somehow, I’ve started feeling things… or seeing things… mostly, have happened when I’m in danger. I wanted to believe at first that it was part of the training, but they have started talking and now father thinks that I just learn that fast… I don’t think I deserve the praise since I can see from where the hits are coming almost before it happens, or when it’s from behind me, I can sort of… isolate… what I see… I don’t know, it’s really weird…”The older boy looked away, and it was evident that he felt bad for what he was confessing.“The worst is that… it’s not just that… At times I can hear what people think…”“Whoaaaa… but, how can you know that it’s what they’re th

    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

    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

    HEARTFELT ADMISSIONS

    The door of the nearest 2nd-storey bedroom next to the wide staircase resounded with half a dozen loud knocks before Emily could answer the door.“Just a minute, Helena. I needed to take a bath since I couldn’t take one before I had completed the medical examination at the hospital this morning,” the young lady said in a voice loud enough to be heard by the person behind the door. “I hope I didn’t make you wait too long.”Emily quickly opened the door and gasped in surprise at the sight of the tall, good-looking and well-built man behind it. She froze, her mouth wide open in the middle of wiping her dripping hair with the white towel provided by their landlady. “J-Jack, why are you here?” stuttered the rescued female, in shock and extreme nervousness.“Hello, Emmy. Can I talk to you for a bit?” the lumberyard supervisor asked a little hesitantly. “That is, if you have nothing to do right now…”“No… I mean, yes, I am not busy at the moment, so yeah, we can talk. Please come in,” the

    CAREFUL CONSIDERATIONS

    “Hey, Hero. Looks like your Eleuthera idea is turning out great!” Nick said from the passenger seat of his friend’s car. “Am I also glad that you’ll now be freeing your men and my buddies from that Chin bitch’s hold! That has always been a problem for me, which is why I keep Brenner’s concoction regularly to counter Chin’s potions in our food that’s being served at the mansion.”“It was one of the first things that Bren mentioned after he realized it. He ate from the governor’s buffet table and found himself sexually pleasuring the governor without even being aware of how it happened, bro,” the Ogre admitted as he continued to drive around 1 mile per hour less than the highway’s speed limit since he was in a hurry to get to Mendez and he knew that the high-powered vans where the Ärgers that were riding behind him were closely following him. He was driving this fast since he truly wanted to liberate his men from the enchantment of the governor’s wife and Ed himself as soon as possible.

    CALLING IN FAVORS

    Meanwhile, back in the city…Ring, ring, ring… Click!“Hello, wife. Why are you calling me on my landline so early in the morning? This better be really important, Chin!”“It is, Ed. Have your private army already gone to Mendez?”“Yes, they left with my Left Hand a few hours ago…”“I just looked into my scrying crystal and I saw your precious little Left hand will soon manage to break the loyalty spell that I put on the Ärgers somehow!”“What? He would not dare! Didn’t your spell work on the Ogre as well, wife?”“I don’t know how, but he and the Right Hand seem impervious to my lesser-powered enchantments even from day one. I remember telling you that even from the start, husband dear. Don’t you remember?”The governor swallowed the words that he was about to say and just left them to run through his thoughts as he remained silent; I do remember your warning, Chin, but it mattered to me that anyone cannot influence my closest underlings by magic or sorcery. Even by you, wife. I canno

    “Okay Macky, please let them know your mama and me will just get dressed then we’ll be meeting them downstairs!” the former Right Hand yelled from inside the locked bathroom. “Just tell them to wait, alright?”“Yep, will do Papa Eron!” the smiling male youth replied, then immediately left to obediently follow his new stepfather’s instructions. “Oh, before I forget Papa, I brought the clothes that you were carrying home with you inside your bedroom.”“Thanks, Macky!” As he answered his new stepson, the muscular tinkerer stood up from the white clawed-foot bathtub and then offered his large, long-fingered hand to his mate. While the fully naked Lycan husband gently pulled his wife to her feet, Diwa suddenly spoke up.“Don’t you lock your door, love? I remember handing you the key for it when you paid your advance before…”“I never do, cupcake, and now that you will let me transfer to your room since we are now married, we can let my Twinny transfer to my bedroom and let Macky go back to

    CRAZIEST THINGS

    “Is it okay if I use the bathtub while you shower, Eron?” the naked curvy Diwa inquired as she slowly stepped into her filled bubbly bath which she had already prepared to meet her preference. “That way we can take our baths in unison so we can be on time to receive our guests later.”The younger hazel-eyed muscled male smirked as he replied, “Why should we take separate baths, cherry pie when I’m sure we can both fit in the bathtub?” he suggested as his passion heavily reflected from his eyes and tone while he slowly approached his now-soaking and sponging wife.“But how on earth can we fit in here, husband?” asked Diwa in a half-laughing and partially panicked voice as she tried to move her long tanned and smooth legs to accommodate the burly hunk of a man as he stepped into the warm and fragrant waters of the tub. “I don’t think that’s possible, love.”Eron chuckled low, his broad, hairy chest rumbling along to his deep and delicious masculine sound. “Believe me, Diwana there are so
