Sinful Love

“Grandpa, why would you ask such a question?” Zaden asked his grandpa

“She has the marking, see” he pointed at Selena’s moon tattoo on her neck, earning a laughter from all of them except for Selena, who put on a serious face

“Grandpa, anyone with money and guts can get a moon tattoo” Zaden sarcastically answered his grandpa

“Son, I might be old, but I’m not stupid. True, anyone with money and guts can get a moon tattoo even in their butt but this is not a tattoo” he turned to face Selena “Is it, child?” everyone’s eye is now focused on Selena. She dropped her head and answered slowly, almost inaudible to the other people

“No…” Zaden looked at her with a raised eyebrow.

“Mind to explain, baby girl?” Finally, Zaden spoke

“It is a birth mark. My grandma told me they started as a dot and developed over the years. We had been to the doctors, but he couldn’t put his finger on it. We finally settled for a simple birthmark, you know, just like strawberry birthmark only mine didn’t fade away and about a few years ago, it stopped developing more” she shrugs her shoulder. Grandpa Kai crossed his arms over his chest and gave a smug smile to Zaden, who is now eyes wide and jaw dropped.

“I can read aura, Selena. Some people omit aura from their body or heart, some from their head but yours concentrated on your neck or to be exact your marking, connecting both body and mind. Meaning, you are not only a Samrat, but you must have had some sort of ability to control other body and mind” Grandpa Kai explained with a cool expression and hands inside his pocket.

“What is a Samrat?” Selena exclaimed in frustration. Zaden stretched his hands and held her hands and guide her into the house. For the first time, she is brought to the seconds floor

“We need some privacy” as he motions everyone to leave except for Grandpa Kai. They walked to a room at the end of the corridor, entering a spacious room, complete with bathroom, a mini fridge with a bar counter. Sofas with round table scatters here and there, high bar stool arranged along the bar counter. There was also a wall with bookshelf, filled with books from different topics. It looks more like a communal room. Zaden walked Selena to a single, green velvet sofa at a corner, without letting go of her hand. Once she is seated, Grandpa Kai and Zaden looked at each other worriedly before Zaden excused themselves and went a bit further, discussing something seriously. They returned back to Selena, Grandpa Kai pushed Zaden to the front. He exhaled sharp looking at the floor and took off his jacket, folded his sleeve up to his elbow. He then looked straight into Selena’s eye and sighed softly as he crouched down in the most stylish way in front of Selena, held her hand that is on her lap now, making her feel like a child. Grandpa Kai was standing right behind him

“See, Samrat is an ancient bloodline of kings with special ability” he stopped making Grandpa Kai clear his throat as a warning to never back off.

“Kings of….wolfs…werewolves precisely” he said with much hesitation and doubts. Selena inhaled sharply before tilting her head slightly to the side. She narrowed her eye “What was that again?”

“Bloodline, I mean Samrat is the surname of a werewolf king’s bloodline” Zaden patiently explain again to her

“Zaden… I think I was hallucinating a few second ago. Did you say werewolf?” Grandpa Kai and Zaden nodded frantically

Bones started snapping as she decent to crawling position. Her nose extends to a snout. A few seconds later she became a complete wolf, bigger than any regular wolf, shook her body and gave out a howl. Selena screamed at the top of her voice, but her friends couldn’t hear her when she is in the room. The wolf looked straight at her with a panting breath, eye as dark as night. Selena ran as fast as she could out of the room, opened the door to slam against Zaden’s hard chest, falling straight into his arms. He immediately hugged her, worried eyes
