Sinful Love

They drove through a narrow path, covered with gravel to a large metal gate. Selena and Orion got off to open the gates before the jeep could pass. A few more minutes, they arrived at a small piece of land in the mid of woods, where sun shone bright despite being surrounded by trees. There is no doubt this place has wealthy mix of wildlife, with birds chirping, colorful butterflies seen everywhere and multiple bee colony stand around the property. A very small wooden house, painted white, possibly 10 feat by 10 feat, situated in the middle of flower gardens, vegetables patches and fruit trees. A thin lady and a fat one was working at the farm, scouting down to pull weeds and another one picking tomatoes into her apron. An old lady with glasses sat on the entry, knitting in her rocking chair. She narrowed her eyes at the figure approaching her at a high speed.

“Grandma ma…” Selena shouted, making her realize who it is in front of her. She tried her best to stand up but Selena caught up to her first and kneeled in front of her, giving her a hug. A familiar Grandma smell made her recall her mother’s embrace, since she used to visit her with Daisy all the time. The beauty of grandmothers is they are extremely tender to their grandkids, more than their own children. Grandma Genesis is no exception, as she gives special attention in spoiling Selena, too.

“Oh my dear Bambi… I thought you have forgotten me. How long has it been? How are you?” the sweet but shaky old lady voice asked her, filled with excitement. She fumbled for her glasses and wore it. When she looked up, she saw 2 men approaching her, 1 hot and dashing and another who is probably about 10 years younger than her, but the fact is, Grandpa Kai is already 248, triple her lifetime.

“Oh I see you finally found someone. Oh dear, he is so yummy” Grandma cupped his cheeks within her palms, making Zaden pout and with his wide eye, he looked like a goldfish. Selena grabbed Grandma’s shoulder and opened her mouth to explain but Grandma Genesis didn’t spare anytime to give the most embarrassing comment

“But he is so huge, how is my tiny Selena supposed to bare you at night?” Selena’s eye widened spontaneously as she shut her own mouth with her palms and Zaden, who had been released from Grandma’s grip, started running his fingers through his hair.

“Grandma ma, he is not my boyfriend” Selena exclaimed when Orion walked from jeep to them

“So, is he? He is smaller than him but sti…” grandma’s word got cut off

“This is Zaden, Orion and Grandpa Kai. They have been taking care of me when I lost in a mountain hike. NO BOYFRIEND here grandma!!!” she exclaimed towards the end of her sentence and Grandma Genesis pursed her lips in frustration. Orion and Zaden felt a little odd at the word she used to define her stay at the mountain, taken care of. Did she genuinely felt that way after being kept ‘room-arrest’ for a day and half, later threatened to rip her friend apart?

Grandma Genesis makes the best oatmeal raisin cookies and they were served with hot cup of milk. They talked a little about some other stuffs before Selena hesitatedly brought the issue about Elisa Mitkoi.

“Grandma ma, you remember a bedtime story that you use to tell me, about The King of Beast? How did you...or… where did you get that from?” there was a moment of silence as they anticipated for the answer but Grandma Genesis stared back for longer than necessary, making things uncomfortable

Zaden, Orion and Grandpa Kai, wanted to run back to the house and look for the drawing, they had to stay put when Selena wanted to cook dinner and eat with her grandma. They sat on a wooden picnic table set behind the house, had their dinner and stayed chatting till late night. Selena sat in the middle of Orion and Zaden while Grandpa Kai and Grandma Genesis sat next to each other, since they needed the space to stretch

bed. He had a hard time controlling his mind, as images of Selena and her smile flashed in his mind, again and again and again. Finally, he had enough with the tortured and grabbed a pillow before departing to ground floor to sleep in the couch. To his surprise and aiding in his irritation, Selena was already there, sleeping on one of the couch.. It was dark and the moon light shining through front window gave a vague view of inside the house but for Zaden, his alpha wolf eye made it clear that she is also trying to sleep. He could pretend not seeing her and
