RED STRING PROLOGUE
PROLOGUEYSOBELLA IS SITTING in a corner with a little smile on her face, looking at the people of Assura celebrating under the full moon. It is the 45th anniversary of their town and the people are having a festive feast. It's almost midnight and only a few people are left in the park. Ysobella also decided to head home. On her way home, she was happily watching the townspeople on each side of the road. She feels pleased as she observes their faces as if they carry no burden. This is what she wants. A peaceful but lively environment to live in. No violence and the people are not unpleasant. When she reached their house, her Grandma Esmey is already resting in her room. Her grandmother went home a little earlier than her because of exhaustion. Since Ysobella's parents are long gone, it was just her and her grandmother. She was only six years old when she lost both her parents. And since then, her Grandma Esmey became her sole guardian. Ysobella then readies herself for bed. She
RED STRING CHAPTER 1
THE FIRST TIME THE SAME DREAM awakened me from my slumber. It's odd because I kept on dreaming about it for five nights. The dream is about a little girl who wanders in the woods with her small basket filled with various flowers. As she keeps marveling around the woods, she spotted a huge tree not so far from the lake. But she knows she is not supposed to go this far so she decided to turn her back and head back to her parents. She was a few steps away when she heard a muffled sound. It was like something or someone is moaning. Fear suddenly surged through the little girl. But despite the fear she felt, she still found herself walking towards the location where the sound is coming from. She was surprised when she realized that the sound came from the tree she noticed earlier. There, was a young man, with his white t-shirt stained with red, which the girl presumed was blood. The girl then noticed how the young man's face contorted in pain. The little girl has no idea what to

HAPPY BIRTHDAY I OPENED MY eyes and found out that Ayla is no longer in her bed. Another day and another year for me. My life changed in an instant after what happened in Assura. "Happy Birthday, to me," I greeted myself. Ever since my grandmother died I stopped celebrating my birthday but Nana and Mama Melly said that I should not forbid myself from celebrating another year of my life. And they said that my grandmother would have wanted me to enjoy my day and forget about the nightmares in the past. "Bella? Are you done fixing yourself?" I heard Ayla's voice from outside our room "Just a minute!" I half yelled. I looked at the mirror and observed my reflection. I have middle-length auburn hair, a pointy nose, and brown eyes. Grandma Esmey said that I look a lot like my mother but my round brown eyes are inherited from my father. It's just painful that I lost them at an early age and I don't even have a single photo of them. "Bella?" It was Ayla, calling me once more. "I'
RED STRING CHAPTER 3
BLUE MOON PACK HIS GREETINGS WERE simple yet it brings havoc to my system. I don't even know how I managed to go downstairs without tripping. And how did he know about my birthday? Maybe he knows everybody's birthday. He's the Alpha after all.I marched to the training ground to find Lorkan. I smiled when I spotted him together with his brothers, Logan and Landon. My smile widened as I eyed the three. They are triplets and I am five years younger than them. The triplets almost have the same facial features, they even have the same eye color which is evergreen. But it's not really hard to distinguish which is which. The oldest, Lorkan, bears a cold expression but he's actually the gentle one. He's usually quiet and observant. Then the second one, Logan, was playful and very friendly. His brother even thinks that he's the male version of Ayla. And lastly, the youngest, Landon, is the black sheep of the family, as Logan always claims. He is the mischievous type and has a typical bad-b

SAY MY NAME I WASN'T ABLE to take well what I have learned from the night before. I quickly left the place right before they noticed me. But I do hope that they have found a solution to their problems.Since it's Sunday today, most normal beings are off to leave the mansion to visit their families in town. Ayla and I are also all set to leave for Ashwood but before leaving, we went first to the kitchen to fetch her mother. "Are you done, mother?" Ayla asked as soon as she saw her mother. Mama Melly turns her head to us. "Yes. But first, let's go see Nana Selma, she might have something she wants us to buy." She then proceeded on wiping her hands and looked at me. "Bella, will you be kind enough to deliver the box of herbs to Doc Morgan?" I gave her a nod and a gentle smile. "Of course, Mama Melly.""Sissy, let's meet in the East gate later, okay? And please do hurry," Ayla said as she taps my shoulder. I was on my way to the infirmary when I bump into Logan. I can tell he was glad
RED STRING CHAPTER 5
HUNGRY I CAME UPON Ayla and Mama Melly waiting at the East gate. Ayla asked what took me so long. I just told her that I had a delightful conversation with Doctor Morgan. She looks convinced and pressed no further questions. Ashwood is an hour away from Highcrest Mountain and the twins Kael and Kaleb were kind enough to drive us there. "Welcome to Ashwood Town, Bella," I murmured. We expressed our gratitude and bid goodbye to the twins after. Ashwood is the closest town in Highcrest and the biggest town in Preousia.I like this town. The last time I went here was on my eighteenth birthday. It's actually Mama Melly's idea to bring me to town since we weren't able to celebrate it at home. And during our visit, the town was also celebrating its anniversary. We went to Mystic St. where Mama Melly's friend is residing. She mentioned earlier that her friend is living alone because her husband is no longer in the world of living. She was mated with a werewolf and he used to be a member o
RED STRING CHAPTER 6
ORBIS I KNOW I can't avoid him forever. I know our paths will cross again but I didn't expect it will happen sooner. He's requesting me. That's strange. What could he possibly want from me? Markus took me to a familiar room, the Alpha's art room and just like the last time I entered the room, Alpha Lucien is not yet present. I tried amusing myself with his artwork then I noticed that the painting from before is already hanging on the wall. His mother's painting in her wolf form is the biggest among the rest. I wonder what Lucien's mother looks like. I bet his mother is beautiful. I was brought back from my thoughts when I heard the door open. I held my breath when Alpha Lucien enters the room. "Glad you're here. Please... sit," he said while pointing at the couch near the window. I swallowed hard and now we are both seated across each other. He was intently staring at me again so I immediately opened my mouth to speak. "Uh, is there anything that I can help you with?"
RED STRING CHAPTER 7
RAVEN I WAS AWAKENED by something warm touching my skin. "We're here, Ysobella." I quickly straightened in my seat when I heard Alpha Lucien's voice. Heat crawled on my face when I realized I was leaning on his shoulder the whole ride. "Pardon me for falling asleep, Alpha Lucien." I played with my fingers because of embarrassment. A low melodic chuckle escaped his mouth. I stiffened when I felt his hot breath in my left ear. "I don't mind," he said. I tried closing my eyes to calm myself. His deep, raspy voice sends a tingling sensation in my body. When I opened my eyes, Alpha Lucien is already sitting inches away from me. "Shall we?" he asked while holding the door. I just gave him a simple nod as a response. He got down first and like a gentleman, he gave me his hand so he can guide me. As promised, Logan made me cookies, which surprisingly tastes good. He baked plenty so he shared it with Nana and Mama Melly as well. We were having a good time when I heard a familiar v
