Chapter 65-Ryan’s POV (care…
Periods?
Another human trait that confirmed that she was not the she-wolf, I loved and hated so much. Then what was it that this girl had?
The forces that once eradicated an entire tribe were at play again. What did they have to do with her?
I had to know. It seemed like she had feelings for me at some points but when I tried checking it by using Rose, she just kept giving me blanks. Was I, then, wrong?C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
I stood there, burning the skin on my palm in the candle light, with which I had hit her.
My skin would grow back within minutes but I need to feel the pain.
” She is sleeping Ryan. You know you can stop doing that in front of me! ”
I had sent Rose to check on her. She looked feeble because of losing so much blood.
Rose pulled me towards her and pressed herself onto me. I moved her with my other hand. She was barely dressed in her miniskirt and off shoulder top, so low that her nipples threatened to burst open any moment. That was what Sherry had chosen for her . It infuriated me.
How could she push me away from her? How did her heart not ache to see me with another girl? How could she be so much like Her, even when they weren’t the same creature?
…
It was the time we had just got back from the Northern lands. We had come back empty handed, except with some horrendous news.
Sherizad had found a pond with innumerable bodies that had rotten and were swelling up.
Those were the original wolves of the Northern territories, the Grey ones. It was a mass massacre with not a single blood drop.
But before we could address the issue in front of others, a hawk from my pack, summoned me immediately back. And another one came for Sherizad and she too was urgently called home.
What followed after that was madness.
My mother was caught, trying to murder my father while in his sleep. Now she was being executed and I had no knowledge of it. It was under my father’s orders.
I reached my tribe with an unusual crowd, gathered at the center square.
As I made my way forward I noticed from a distance that there was a stake in the center. It was the most severe punishment given to the enemies of the state. Burnt alive as the pack watched and enjoyed. My feet lost control when I saw my own mother tied up over there and my father standing right in front with a burning torch in his hand.
That was one scene carved into my soul and bones and the other being when Sherizad left this world, breathing her last in my very arms.
She had just wiped out all of my pack with her single Power Blow. I caught her just before she was about to fall on the ground, with a smile on her face and blood, trickling down her lips.
” Why? ”
That was all I had managed to ask but she didn’t clarify much. She just had moments enough to touch my cheeks and whisper,
” If I had to do it all over again I wouldn’t do it any other way. ”
And then she left.
How could she be so cold? How could she be so cruel?
I kept asking myself this question as I left towards the abandoned North with my two boys. From there, we built a new empire. With every coming era we changed and blended in.
With every coming era and with every coming day, my heart searched for her. It yearned for her, even when she was the angel of death herself.
I was living a soulless life , finally giving up any hope that flickered here and there.
And then, out of nowhere, she again landed on my lap.
Except, it wasn’t her. Just her replica with eerie similarity in both habits and features.
…..
” Why are you so lost in your thoughts these days Ryan? Do you want me to give you a relaxing massage? ”
Rose’s hand over my chest and neck , brought me back from my zoning out session.
I nodded, sitting down properly on the couch. Perhaps that was what I needed. She started off normally, her hands working out the knots in my shoulders, and for a few minutes, everything was perfect.
But then, her touch became more sensual, her voice more sultry. She touched me at my upper thigh, and almost rubbed her booty on me as she moved. It was not abnormal for Rose but I started to feel uncomfortable, and I knew I had to say something.
“Rose, what are you doing?” I asked, my voice shaking slightly.
She looked up at me, a sly smile on her face. “Just trying to make you feel good, baby,” she purred.
I shook my head and pushed her away gently. “That’s not what I asked for. I just wanted a massage. I think it’s time for me to go.”
Rose’s smile vanished, replaced by a look of hurt and confusion. “I’m sorry,” she said softly. “I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable. You always liked it this way. Didn’t you Ryan? Why are you acting so weird lately? ”
She protested as I grabbed my jacket and walked out.
Bringing Rose into the house was not for my pleasure or to make Sherry jealous or anything.
It was a precautionary measure that I had to take for Sherry’s safety.
First of all, Rose’s presence around me would definitely give, whoever was keeping an eye over me, the vibes that I was not inclined towards Sherry in any way. That would stop them from getting more aggressive like they were getting lately.
Second of all, Rose was an assassin. With her in the house, Sherry would be safe. Whoever would dare to break in, would never leave again.
