Your Ring On My Skeleton

02 : Howling Voices

"Hindi ba dapat e masaya ka, mahal?" Isang marahang halik ang naramdaman ko sa tungki ng aking ilong. Yumukod pala si Ignis para bigyan ako noon. "I mean matagal mo nang gustong mapabilang sa pack as a worthy wolf instead of being that wolf who is known just for her what they call unlucky red eyes."

I did not answer and instead just looked at him calmly. Nasa bahay ako ngayon ni Ignis sa syudad. He is living in the city, and I have to travel to him for forty-five minutes. Hindi naman kasi ganoon kalayo ang tinitirahan niya. Even though the Hashian mountains are towering the city, they serve as natural protectors from the nature's wrath. Ang Hashian mountains ang nagsisilbing proteksyon ng syudad dahil sa kabila ng mga bundok na iyon ay ang napakalawak na karagatan na madalas pag-umpisahan ng malalakas na bagyo. It is forbidden for people to trespass the mountains. One of the government's laws was made about it because of the number of deaths and even wolves’ sightings, which I can attest is true. The government even knows we exist that is why they don't dare to trespass our territories but despite that, our identities are hidden and unknown to them. They do not know who is who. They just know about our existence.

"That also means I have to choose an alpha. Is that what I should be happy about?" I madly smiled at Ignis.

Hindi ko pa rin tinitigilan ang pagkakatingin sa kaniya habang siya naman ngayon ay naupo sa may unahan ko. At dahil nakaupo ako sa sofa niya, para siyang nanunuyo sa akin at naglalambing. He even held my chin gently and caressed it using just his thumb. Ni hindi pinapansin kung pati ang labi ko ay nahahawakan niya na. Mukha ngang enjoy na enjoy pa siya sa ginagawa niya, e.

I admit it is making me hot. The way he gently caresses my face plus the fact that his eyes are so focused on adoring me. Ignis has this moreno skin and well-built body and that is a given when all he does is go to the gym, stay fit, and be healthy. He is not the hard rock body nor too muscular but the just enough muscles for me. Kung tatayo siya ngayon, he will be towering over me dahil hanggang kili-kili niya lang ako. Iyon ang isa sa dahilan kung bakit gustong-gusto kong nasa tabi ko siya. I feel so safe. Even his masculine face and jaw are tempting me, yet my current problem is interfering on my mood. The way he dresses is also very attractive to me. He always dresses good and clean. Napakapogi niyang tingnan.

"Tita Belle said I am my mom's beta. Ibig sabihin, noong si Mommy pa ang Luna ng mga Loki, I am the one that is second to her throne. My title should be void now that she is gone yet Tita Belle said I am still my mom’s beta until now maybe because of the DNAs inside of me. Sa tantiya ko tuloy ay mas lalo lamang nagalit sa akin si Benice. Lalo kasing ipinaglalabanan nina Tito at Tita na isa akong Ultima wolf dahil sa mga mata ko."

"Aren't you an Ultima, mahal?"

"I am not."

"Oh, kaya ba nagmamadali mo akong pinuntahan dito para lang magsumbong sa akin kahit na ayaw na ayaw mong lumalabas sa umaga? That is really cute, Antara ko." he chuckled and now sat with me on the sofa. Agad niya rin akong niyakap at pinagpahinga sa dibdib niya. "If that's what your Alphas want, you should do it."

"You don't understand. Suiting myself with possible alphas are like looking for someone that should mark me, Ignis. It's a wolf thing."

"Well, wala akong magagawa sa wolf thing n'yo na iyan but don't you think that as your mother's beta, shouldn't you conform to your wolf tradition?"
