Chapter: Meeting a familiar foeARIANA'S POVI must have been dreaming as I mentioned the single name I knew in my head. I was in a dark and cold place but I could hear the ferocious beast drawing near to me. I needed to make a run for it but there was no way to run. I started walking backwards and then realized I had gotten near to the edge of the cliff. A cliff? How did I even get there?Behind me and just beneath was the rushing sound from the sea and I could see my fate. I had never seen anything like this beast but it drew nearer to me in the dark menacingly. Its bloodshot blazing eyes gleaming in the dark as it growled. It was a lot taller than I was and really scarier. I needed to escape but there was no way. I muttered the name Justin, who on earth was that? I wondered. Just then, I saw a way to run but just as I tried to escape, the beast got me and bit me on my shoulder before clawing me around the abdomen. The force from what he had done sent me down the cliff.I was falling steadily. I could feel my impe

Chapter: A Lycan's lossZELDA'S POV"And you are certain it was a werewolf?" I asked him as I came into the bedroom from the bathroom wearing the robe he usually left for me, just in case I choose to sleep over.Tyler had been brooding since and would not go to sleep which was why I decided to stay back with him. He sure looked like it was such a big deal and I was doing my best to understand the reason for his worries."Zels, I'm no kid. I know what I saw." He said."But you just said it fell off the cliff and you bit it too." I reminded him."Yes, I did say that but what difference would it make?" He asked me."If for nothing, the wolf is certain to die. Its body would probably be washed by the sea and be feasted on by the sea creatures." I said coming around him on the bed as I started massaging him."And what's that supposed to mean?" I asked her."Can't you see it, dead wolf...dead case. Seems pretty much fine to me. You have nothing to worry about, if you ask me." I said to him,"And you are sure, why?

Chapter: The rescue JAPHETH'S POVI sat down there in the cool of the night as I watched the stars while drinking bourbon whiskey. Seriously, to think that woman had played me so much and had caused me to get ruled by the court to start paying her alimony that was one third of my earnings was certainly something I would never forgive. The only thing I needed was time away to get some rest and the sea happens to be the only place I ever found such rest. Stella had done her bit but I would certainly figure out a way to extract vengeance from her. It was at this point that I caught sight of something floating in the dark."Hey, captain!!!" I called out to him as he was up ahead."Sir?" He answered."There's something out here, floating. Point your light." I said to him,"Where, sir?" He asked me."To your three o'clock." I said to him and that instant, he flashed the light right on the spot.The moment I saw it was a person, I did not think twice as I jumped into the sea and swam to rescue. It was a woman a

Chapter: The mistake ALPHA TYLER'S POV"So where is the traitor?" I demanded as I got off my car and handed the keys over to the potter.Luke sure was scared as I walked over to him. I could tell something was wrong from the dense atmosphere and that was something I would not have. The moment I had seen him that way and waiting right outside, I could tell something had happened."My lord, that's what I'm trying to explain. He sort of escaped but I'm working on finding him." He said to me quickly."Sort of or he did escape?" I demanded angrily."He did escape, my lord. But I can..." He began."Explain? Of course you can. How could a werewolf traitor escape a pack of lycans? Shows your incompetence at your job, Luke." I said to him,"I'm sorry, we'll definitely find him." He said to me,But this was my Beta's third strike and I could no longer bear to pardon him. For a long time, we had been at loggerheads with those despicable weak wolves that believed they owned everything and had the nerve to encroach. T

Chapter: Humiliating promARIANA'S POVFinally, the night had come and I would profess my love for him. I had been waiting for this night all along that I could not actually believe it was happening. I had gone over and picked my own rubber bracelet that had my number. All I needed to do was find the person with my number and all would be well."Sixteen." I muttered under my breath as I stared at the number on my glowing bracelet."That's a lucky number among us werewolves." The handler said to me."Why?" I asked."Because it marks the rebirth of a new wolf. First transformation." He said to me and I smiled.He was indeed right. The very first time a werewolf would dare to transform was on the night of the first full moon when they turned sixteen. I sincerely hoped he was right about this being my lucky number as I wished beyond anything that I would be fated with whom I wanted. I caught sight of the girls and went over to join them."Ariana, remember the bet. You said you would tell him tonight." Juliet said

Chapter: CHAPTER 100SAMANTHA'S POVI walked in the hotel and was soon inside the elevator that took me upstairs where Zara was waiting for me.A few moments later and I was in front of the door, waiting for her to open by me she did not.Was everything okay?I called her again and it took a moment for her to pick."Yeah?" She asked."I don't know if you heard me earlier but I'm in front of the door." I said to her,"Oh, I know that." She responded."So, what's holding you?" I demanded."Anger." She responded.Seriously, this was all on purpose?"Zara, what has your anger got to do with opening the door?" I demanded."You left me here and goofed off to Tennessee at the mercy of... nevermind that. But buttomline is you didn't reach out to me." She responded.I had not missed the part of her asking me to not mind but I would certainly revisit that once I get inside."Zara, I'm sorry for the upteenth time." I said to her,"Sorry doesn't fix this." She responded."Does making me stand in front of the door lik

Chapter: CHAPTER 99DOMINIC'S POVI opened my eyes and realised that I was strapped to a chair. I was in this damp and nearly dark room whose only illumination was from a half dead bulb.I realised that I was also gagged as a piece of clothing seemed to have been stuffed into my mouth and then another over my mouth.My hands were also bound behind me and then another set of ropes holding me in place on the chair.Taking in my surroundings now, I realised there were cartons of unknown stuff stacked around this place that was beginning to feel like a den for criminal stuff.Which if you ask me is not new for Emilio.I waited and soon realised now how uncomfortable I was. I could barely feel my fingertips and I needed to break free.I tried to make a sound but thanks to the gag stuffed in and over my mouth, only a muffled sound came out.I tried some more to make them louder but it was still the same.I needed to break free and explore these boxes to see what weapon I could find. I mean if this was a den, t

Chapter: CHAPTER 98SAMANTHA'S POVI sat at the back seat of the car with my thoughts running quite deep and wide.Zara was already waiting for me at the hotel and we would be having company. A tear fell from my eyes as my thoughts were beginning to wander around the fact that Emilio had slept with Mariah.Of all persons, it had to be her. The young girl I had decided to help. Was there no limit to my dearest husband's sin?I mean, I could forgive a whole lot of things he keeps doing and throwing at me but this was way too much.The toxicity of my marriage was deafening and I needed more than cool down laps to settle this.I needed REVENGE!"Ma'am, we're here." The driver said to me,I had taken one of Emilio's younger bodyguards whom I could influence to take me in the Ford."Good. What's your name again?" I asked the youth.I was actually wondering when he had been hired as a dark thought fizzled up in my mind.I mean, if my husband was so capable of sleeping around with every Rom, Dick and Harry that

Chapter: CHAPTER 97EMILIO'S POVI sat down feeling stressed already from all my activities on this day.It was all my fault and it took Alfredo staring at me from the rear view mirror for me to notice that we were not moving."Is there a precise reason why we are stopping?" I demanded."The traffic light, Sir." He responded.I looked up and realised we were at the intersection and were being halted by the red light."Ooh..." I muttered."Sir..." He called me again."Alfredo, what's it?" I demanded."You've been broody all day since we left the doctor's. Are you okay?" He asked me."Do I look like I'm anywhere close to being okay?" I asked him."Absolutely not but I know it's not my place..." He started and I felt offended."Yes. It's not your place." I responded."But we could both agree that I have more experience in this stuff than you do." He said.Wait, what was that right now? Was he indirectly trying to say he surpassed me in managing my home?I was beginning to feel angered."Thread with caution

Chapter: CHAPTER 96EMILIO'S POVAll my hopes that I would slip through this one had just been shattered. Samantha definitely would not let this go and here I was, faced with either telling the truth or lying."Sam, she was sacked for being bad. Trust me when I say that she deserved it." I said to her,"I understand she did bad per say, I just want to know what exactly she did that had you sacking her." She said to me,Samantha had that look in her eyes like she was going to deal with me if I did not speak."Samantha, please." I said."So you're not going to tell me?" She asked me."Babe you need to understand..." I started to say."No. You don't have to." She said and I exhaled in relief."Really?" I asked her."Absolutely. Because, I would just ask her myself." She said and turned to reach for her phoneWhat? No way!That would spell doom for me and the fact that she would ruin everything for me."No...no...no!!! It's fine. I'll tell you." I said rather quickly.I had to tell her and the heavens help m

Chapter: CHAPTER 95SAMANTHA'S POVFinally after such a long while, Emilio was finally fit to travel although with a sling. Every attempt by the doctor to have him keep that hand in place has always been in vain, hence the sling.Trust me, Emilio did not find that funny in one bit. Nevertheless , he had to agree.In the two where we had stayed here, I had seen him cling to Ma'am Jacqueline like a son would his mother. He formed a sort of friendship with Joey although I knew that was all because Joey had someone now.I have never seen George or Kourtney since the hotel scene. I mean, they sure as hell deserved each other.Ma'am Jacqueline had grown so fond of my husband whom if we all could reckon, she detested at first."You'll come visiting, right?" Lady Florence asked."Hell yes, they do. Or I'll smack the hell out of them." Ma'am Jacqueline threatened lovingly."We would. At every chance we get." Emilio responded."And you'll be good to our Samantha?" Lady Florence asked yet again."Absolutely. I have

Chapter: CHAPTER 26AMELIA'S POVThe banshee...It sounded really funny but it was the best thing that would ever happen to anyone of us. My brother, Ivar and I had spent a good period of our childhood as slaves. Yes, it was the modern world but when it comes down to us werewolves, no time was modern. It was all the same thing. There had to be one pack that would want to covet power and to do so, they start picking on other packs especially the lowest and insignificant ones in bid to irritate the bigger ones. It was worse for such packs if they had refused to surrender to them. Then, they did unleash hell on these smaller packs.It was actually never really easy being from these other packs as we spent our time watching our families get destroyed. Ivar was the son of my uncle, the then Alpha of our pack which meant that he was going to be king. Before him had been six other brothers as his father had two wives. The entire six had been killed but we all covered up the youngest by lying that he was my brot

Chapter: CHAPTER 25REHAB'S POVSeriously, there really was something about fate and wanting to keep Eli and I close. I stared at him now and the first glance at his donkey ears caused me to blurt into a laugh.Of course I knew how to do a reverting spell. I am not one of the oldest witches ever over some naming choice. It actually augmented the fact that I could do everything within the borders of witchery except the dark stuff. I had left that bit to my cursed counterpart but you have to agree with me that it felt really fun teasing the hell out of Eli. He was simply too stubborn and stupid that it excited me with the feeling of butterflies in my stomach.I certainly would not be promising him any peace of mind. And he too had promised Jose, not me the same thing. I might be Jose in disguise but no one knows right? So you keep my secret and I shall endeavor to make your days swell and exciting.I could not understand what it was with him and finding a way of shifting things to me. What exactly did he w

Chapter: CHAPTER 24ELI'S POVDo not attempt to laugh at me right now because I find it really insulting.I could not believe that I was going to spend the entire day with donkey ears. I seriously wanted to kill him and then Miriam had stepped in as she asked him if he was actually being serious about the whole thing. Jose explained that he was not really great at reverting things but he was certain everything would return to normal by sundown. A warlock who does not know how to undo his spells after all the time he had spent under his mentor, was this guy kidding me or did he think I was a joke?I had the strong feeling that he was doing this intentionally just to punish me and the worst was the fact that I could not harm him all thanks to Miriam being here. She was protecting him like he was all that mattered to her and I could swear that I felt really jealous over all of this development. How could he come into our lives and start to interfere? That witch had better come take back her apprentice or I

Chapter: CHAPTER 23MIRIAM'S POVI had been feeling quite hazy after the whole transformation, so when the two Omega's had pledged their loyalty to me, I suddenly slipped into oblivion.I woke up in this shed and the first person I saw was Eli. He smiled at me and I could have sworn that my morning could not have gotten any better with the fact that I was staring directly at him. It felt really nice to watch him stare closely at me and then I looked around me."Jose?" I asked him suddenly.Seriously, I could not understand why I was so fond of the young man."Um... I would go look for him after all of this." Eli said to me."Are you kidding me now? Eli, he's been out there since last night. You should find him." I said as I quickly got up."I swear to you that I would but you need to take things easy with yourself right now, Miriam. You're still..." He began but I was already seating up and stretched out before glaring at him."Anything happens to Jose, and I would kill you." I threatened him even though

Chapter: CHAPTER 22REHAB'S POVI smiled as I knew what was about to happen the minute Miriam had taken off. Being in this form of Jose had been really something to me as I had been rather missing my original beautiful form. I knew from the instant that she had taken off that it was time finally. The banshee was going to create that protective link and it would all begin to make sense to us. The prophecy was finally going to happen and she would be just on her way to fulfilling everything in it. The path she was set onto was the right one and I wandered off steadily.It would be much easier to find them as all I would have to do was a little location spell and I would find myself right wherever they were. I needed a little refreshing from this form and to look upon my own face. I kept wandering as I clouded my scent with magic just in case they decide to want to come and find me. I need no sudden disturbance or interruptions.Steadily, I moved on and on, floating as I did not want to stress myself out.

Chapter: CHAPTER 21MIRIAM'S POVThe pain was unsettling as I fell on all fours. I let off a piercing scream as I started feeling all my bones breaking, one at a time.It had started with my spine, angling into an awkward bend with a loud noise as I was being shifted to what would pass for a wolf's spine. I had never felt anything more painful in my entire life and only now did I begin to realize why Eli had been trying to stop me all along from activating the curse.Yes, it was a curse and I could now see that clear enough.Eli came to me but just then, my ribs cracked and I screamed as I glared at him. In this moment of pain, I did not want anyone coming closer or I might lash out at them. My wrist joints went next that I had suddenly rolled over in pain from the impact, screaming as my face and legs began their process. . with each passing moment, I felt the restructuring of my entire bones to fit into the shape of a werewolf. My ears were not left out as they were stretched badly. My teeth became fan
