Reborn- His Scarlett Moon

Ryan and his men did realize that the den they visited had something definitely sinister about it.

But they failed to realize that it had accelerated the process of repeating history.

What Beck experienced, whatever happened to Sherry or her father’s murder was not things that were individual. They were all connected by the thread of fate.

” Has Chong and you been working on the list? ”

Ryan asked.

” Yes, we did. All of them. Didn’t miss a single one. ”

Josh confirmed checking his recently dialed list, with a big wink.

” How’s Beck doing? ” Ryan asked. He had been keeping quiet and acting a little weird, ever since they got back from that place.

Ryan was now sure that there must be more scattered werewolves from their lost packs. Scattered everywhere, other the centuries. His new mission was to try and track any paranormal activity and recruit as many of them. He wanted to meet each one of them personally, to see whether he knew them already and persuade them.

He had been trying to reach his uncle but it wasn’t the first time that he was trying it.

Sherry , on the other hand, had moved out.

She was living with Sarah in a rented apartment at the moment.

She came for work in the morning and left at night.

She had no idea that her place was guarded by Ryan’s men, without her own knowledge.

She said she needed a break and Ryan let her have it.

He didn’t want her to feel trapped, especially after witnessing her father’s horrible end.

But the main reason why Sherry moved out wasn’t her father. It was Ryan and his presence.

Ever since she visited that place, she had been having constant deja vu of herself with Ryan. Like the ones she used to have before, once in a while but ever since they came back, it had intensified.

Sarah had supported her idea as well.

It wasn’t Sarah’s support, however. It was Helo’s plan.

A plan to redo history but this time he planned to do it right and reclaim his lost glory.

His evil plan had already started growing from the seed that he had implanted.

” Oh, sorry. I didn’t see you coming. ” Beck apologized as Sherry bumped straight into him while leaving her new rented apartment.

” It’s ok. What are you doing here? ” Sherry asked, trying to pick up all the files that fell on the floor that she was carrying.

Beck bent down to try and help her as well.

” Ummm, nothing much. I had come to check on you. How have you been doing? I don’t go to the office much these days. I haven’t been able to see you often. ”

Sherry pulled her dress behind as she stood up with the files in her hand. The way he stared at her, it seemed like he was staring at her chest. It made her very uncomfortable.

She tried to smile nevertheless.

” I am alright. Thank you for asking. But I am really fine. You don’t need to worry. ”

She hurried towards the elevator and pressed the button, to go down stairs.

Beck got inside as well.

It was just the two of them and nobody else.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Sherry had been around Beck in much skimpier dresses. She had been in the same house as him, under the same roof. Never had she ever felt that nervous and conscious around him. His whole persona had changed.

As soon as the door of the elevator opened, Sherry tried to rush off there but Beck held her hand back.

” Please be careful , ” he said, pointing at the open edge of a sharp metal, hanging from the side of one of the gates.

Sherry bowed and then left.

That night, she had trouble sleeping.

Sarah wasn’t home that night. She said she had some urgency at her workplace. Wherever that was.

Sherry kept checking her window and balcony. She couldn’t help the feeling of being watched.

It was the middle of the night. She could take the tension no more and decided to bring her healer back into action. She hadn’t smoked that often while she stayed at Ryan’s place. She never needed to. But as soon as she was by herself, she needed it’s reliance.

She lit her cigarette and went to the balcony.

Just then her phone rang.

It was Ryan. What a surprise.

” Hello. ” She answered with a smile on her face.

” You’re still awake? ” Ryan asked with his smirk on.

” So are you… ” Sherry replied, leaning back on the wall. To be honest, she was kind of missing him.

” Do you want to go for a ride? ”

” What? Now? ”

” Yes, why not? You don’t need to get dressed. I got something for you in my car. ” No sooner did he say that, Sherry could see the lights blinking and hear the honking below her apartment.

She couldn’t help but smile.

” You are here…. ”

and before she could finish her statement, he was crawling up the building.

He dropped to his knees and produced a parcel out from under his jacket.

Sherry couldn’t help but giggle at his gesture,

” Why are you doing this? ” , she asked, though she was enjoying every bit of it.

Suddenly Ryan stood up and sniffed the air.

” What’s wrong? ” Sherry asked.

” Nothing. Was Beck here? ”

Sherry was taken aback by the randomness of his question.

” Why? Yes. A couple of days back. He wanted to ask if I was doing alright. ”

” Not today? Like an hour or a few minutes ago?”

Sherry couldn’t even understand.

” No. Definitely not. ”

” Hmmm… he must have come to check on the patrolling team… ” Ryan murmured under his breath.

” What are you saying? ” Sherry asked, looking Ryan in the eye.

Suddenly, there was a twinkle there which she spied.

” What? ”

Sherry asked as he started advancing towards her with little steps but ferocious eyes.

” Your roommate isn’t home tonight? ”

He asked with a soft purr in his voice and naughty delight.

Sherry kept backing off till her back touched the wall behind.

Ryan placed his arm right over her shoulder.

” You wanna go out or you wanna play inside? ”

Sherry couldn’t breathe. His breath against her skin was already making her feel intoxicated.

She could say nothing.

” Don’t tell me you didn’t enjoy the last time… ”

He played her dirty.

Just the memory of it, made her go all wet and she could tell that his sharp sense of smell was picking her hormonal release as well.

” Didn’t you want to go for a ride? ” She bit her lips as she asked.

” I could go for another ride instead. ”

And he pushed her on the bed.
