ELEANOR's POVI began to contact my former landlord, Mrs. Smith, in the hope of renting her house again.Luckily, Mrs. Smith was very happy to have me back. After all, I had never missed any rent or behaved badly during the time I had rented her house.Mrs. Smith even complained to me, "Gosh, Eleanor, your presence is godsent. Ever since you left, I've had only horrible tenants. The couple who rented my house was terrible! They made a mess of the place and when they finally left, they left nothing but junk at the house!"Mrs. Smith shuddered at the thought and quickly took my hand as if she was afraid to let me go. "It was a nightmare. But don't worry Eleanor, I've cleaned the house. You can come and see it first before you decide."I replied, "No, I've lived there before and know how it is. I trust you, Mrs. Smith."I gave Mrs. Smith the money for the rental by transfer and agreed on a time to move in, but Lawrence was very upset about it."Eleanor, do you really have to live somewhe
ELEANOR's POVAfter dinner, Madison and I went for a walk around the nearby mall and by the time we got back to the apartment again, the sun had already bid us goodbye.I was very tired and told Madison, "Madison, why don't'you go and take a shower?" Instead, Madison plopped down on my bed, closed her eyes and yawned. She whined a little and said, "Eleanor, why don't you shower first instead? I'm very tired now. I haven't rested since I flew here from Bristol. I think I need to take a nap, I'll go take a shower when you're done.""Okay, you rest for a while. If you're thirsty, you can help yourself to the drinks in the fridge in the living room."Then I stepped into the bathroom and stripped off my clothing, allowing them to pool on the ground. I had been on my toes the whole day, busy with Madison's accommodation and making sure she did not find out about my identity as a werewolf. But thank the Moon Goddess, Madison did not suspect anything. It seemed that Lawrence's trick worked.
ELEANOR's POVThe next day, I took Madison to the former company where I used to work.Standing at the entrance of the company, I said to Madison, "Today is a working day and this is the company headquarters. According to the company's rules, I am not allowed to bring outsiders into the company, so we can only sneak in and observe my colleagues without letting anyone know, is that okay?""Don't worry, Eleanor, I won't give you any trouble."Suddenly, I saw two people walking down the road not far away and I was taken aback. These were colleagues I used to know. If they saw me, then it would be all over for me. The cat would be out of the bag and Madison would realize that I did not work here.Before my former colleagues could see me, I quickly pulled Madison into a nearby bush in front of the company.Madison was a little confused by my actions. "We haven't entered the company yet, why are we hiding here?""Those two are my colleagues but um.... I don't really get along with them. I u
Eleanor's POVWhen I got to the park at which Lawrence and I had arranged to meet, it was still a little early.Because of my injury before and a number of reasons, I didn't continue to work in Lawrence's company, even though I had only been there for a dozen days.I knew, it seemed a little implausible and wired, but I held the firm belief that Lawrence would handle everything appropriately and give a reasonable explanation to my colleagues. When I was standing in the park waiting for Lawrence, very soon I noticed there were two men coming up for me from the opposite side.They looked like hikers in strange dresses, wearing the convenient sport suits. But they also looked more aggressive, because of the knives, bows and arrows on their backs. Although they seemed like the performance artists on the streets of London, I could still easily judge their identities.They were hunters, because I had seen Madison carrying the similar weapons. Oh, my God. that was not a good thing. I had
Eleanor's POVLawrence seemed to generate a sense of reluctance to part from me, but eventually he still released his hand and said, "Eleanor, I'm not going to stop you from meeting your friends.""But you have to remember – you are my wife and my mate. I will do my utmost to restrain the possessiveness of the werewolf and set you free, for I love you and I also trust you.""As you said, there shouldn't be only harms exciting between us. We can choose a more peaceful way to get along well with each other."I could feel the changes in Lawrence. Now, he was a mild gentleman, a completely different man from the maniac who had locked me up in the villa, not allowing me to keep in touch with any males. I knew he had made the changes for me, which made me very happy. I liked Lawrence when he restrained his claws and teeth, being gentle with everyone.Giving him a kiss, I said, "Don't worry, Lawrence. I'll always remember that."After saying goodbye to Lawrence, I took a taxi to the café whe
Lawrence and I planned to have dinner first and then go to the cinema.The movie talked about a love story occurred in college. It was so boring that we went out of the cinema before it was over. There was a milk tea shop near the cinema, at which I wanted to have a cup of milk tea.Holding my hand, Lawrence said, "Let me go with you."I replied, "No, that's OK. You drive the car, and I'll come to you when I am done." Pausing for a little while, I asked, "Would you like some milk tea?"Lawrence shook his head, "Oh, no. That's too sweet for me. Maybe, a cup of coffee is OK."I spoke, "OK." Giving Lawrence a goodbye kiss, I left him for a moment to buy some milk tea, but I found Madison standing in front of the shop with two familiar figures.Those two men were the hunters I met today.Why were they together? Oh, no. They all were hunters, coming to London for the same party. Thus, it was not surprising that they knew each other. I began to realize that Madison's so-called friends
Madison was very amazed to see Lawrence. Turning her head toward me, she asked, "Eleanor, is this your boyfriend?"Things seemed to be getting worse. I was not in a good mood to talk about that. I was not able to understand why Madison and her two friends could be so cruel and brutal. They just killed a werewolf. Fiona's body was still lying here, but they just didn't care about it at all, how could they be so aloof and indifferent. Fixing her eyes on Lawrence, Madison looked very curious. But I began to worry that they would discover Lawrence was also a werewolf.One of the hunters named Fred asked, "Well? Is he also a werewolf?""No, he isn't. I cannot sense the smell on him." Madison replied.Thanked God. It seemed that Lawrence had greater power than Fiona and I did, thus even Madison was not able to discover him as a werewolf.Being curious about Lawrence, Madison turned to me, "Eleanor, is he the man who called you on that night, named Lawrence, right?"After giving me a glimp
Eleanor's POVThe next morning, Lawrence gave me a wake-up kiss, who had got dressed, being ready to go to work.I felt a little guilty about him. After all, as his wife, being not able to live with him, I should at least have prepared breakfast for him today.But I was so exhausted last night, because of Fiona's death, that I fell asleep in Lawrence's arms unconsciously.I was so grateful that Lawrence could stay with me, giving me the biggest support at the moment when I was extremely mournful. Kissing my forehead gently, Lawrence said, "Eleanor, sleep awhile more."I cupped his face in my hands and asked, "Lawrence, can I find another job?" Because of Madison, I couldn't go back to work in Lawrence's company for the time being. But I was not able to be a vagrant like that forever. Without working and any social interaction, I felt like I passed a day as if it were a year. So, I hoped to find another job. Of course, I had to asked for Lawrence's opinions. After hesitating for a m
