A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.

A RAY OF HOPE

"But why uncle didn't give this locket to me before? Even you Raynold. You know that it has been a year that I have found my mate then why didn't you give it to me then?"

Raynold sighed dejectedly before answering. "Because of you, Edwin. Because of your reputation and your way of life. I thought you would never be loyal to one woman. And a human mate of a werewolf leader? That is very unheard of.

I thought it was either some kind of twisted plot or you were just using a human to fool the world. And even if you had found your mate, I didn't believe that you would go to great lengths to save her like uncle Walter wanted to save aunt Margaret."

Edwin closed his eyes to fight the surge of various emotions in his chest. Though his pretence of years had kept him safe from the evil plans of people around him, and shielded him from unwanted responsibilities and blame, it had also made him pay a heavy cost.
