CHASE POV

My lungs burned, but it wasn't the only part of my body searing. My skin and every inch I touched felt like a fiery furnace, overheated.

I pressed my hand to my side, which had been aching for a while. When I raised my shirt, I saw nothing but unusual purple patches.

Lowering my shirt again, I surveyed the large, empty room surrounded by windows. A loud noise shattered my thoughts, making me wince. I stepped toward the window as it subsided.

My eyes widened at my surroundings.

"The ocean?" I exclaimed, disbelief flooding me. There was no way I could have been transported here. One minute, I was in the bathtub, writhing in pain with Allison in front of me. The next, I was in a field, then the wind came, and suddenly, I was in the middle of the ocean.

"It's what your mind makes it seem," a voice said, and I turned to see who had spoken.

A woman stood before me, her silvery hair flowing as if the wind was whipping through it, though the room was still. Her eyes were a pale whit

    ALLISON POV"Chase," I murmured, attempting to shake him awake. He was still fast asleep in the bathtub.I had been tempted to check twice if he was still breathing, placing my finger close to his nose and feeling for a pulse.I groaned as soon as my hand came into contact with his skin. He was burning again. Even though he had soaked himself in water, his temperature didn't seem to alleviate. With his temperature spiking by the minute, I wouldn't be surprised if the water started steaming."She's just a child," Chase whispered, making me frown. His eyes were still closed. It was as if he was trying to wake up but having difficulty doing so.Sitting near the tub, I dipped my hand into the water, gently caressing his thigh. "I hope you're not enjoying making me feel agitated," I said.Then, my mind wandered back to Artemisia. She hadn't called back like she wanted to, and I didn't want to disturb her, especially knowing Sinclair was with her. I would only be putting both her and myself

    ALLISON POV"What can I get you?" I asked as Artemisia and Julie settled on the sofa in the living room."Get?" Artemisia asked. "Silly, we're not strangers.""I am, and I'm famished," Julie groaned, rubbing her stomach for emphasis. "Can I have some lamb chops, a white wine, Chardonnay to be precise, and maybe some vanilla cake for my sweet tooth?""Isn't that the same thing Laurent got for you yesterday?" Artemisia asked, her brows raised."L-Laurent who?" Julie snorted, rolling her eyes. "Who is that, by the way?""Julie!" Artemisia scolded playfully, making Julie shrug."So, you're fucking my brother," I interrupted, my nose wrinkling.Julie flushed a deep shade of red and shook her head. "Never. He's a skirt chaser.""Of course, everyone knows he fucks whoever wears a skirt. And any human or werewolf who gets involved with him will regret it." I stated."He's not that bad," Julie defended.Okay, for one, I knew Julie had a thing for Laurent. I had seen how they both acted towards

    ALLISON POVMy gaze was still locked on the mark on my wrist and on Chase's stomach. It glowed even brighter, leaving a tingly, strange sensation that spread through me. I glanced at Chase again, only to see him staring at himself. Then, he glanced at me before his gaze wandered to Artemisia."Allison being my mate, I'm certain of. But reincarnation? Not so sure," he said, then he gripped my hand that was still holding onto his shirt. He intertwined our fingers, making me roll my eyes."What do we do? Is it something dangerous?" I asked Artemisia, whose eyes were locked on our intertwined hands. A smile formed on her face, and she shook her head.I tried to remove my hand from Chase's grip, but he wouldn't let go, so I relented."Like I said, I can give him something he can use temporarily to ease his pain," she said. "As for the second question, the Nyxbane is very dangerous. It's a destructive force and can slowly kill even the strongest alpha.""Are you saying there's no cure? If C

    CHASE POVI was given two months to find a mate, or I'd die a slow, painful death. So, I thought of capturing the first woman that came into view and locking her up in my room, beating her up until she agreed to mate with me, or declaring I was looking for a mate in my pack and watching a lot of women wait in line.But I wasn't a beater. I had never hit a woman before despite how annoying they were, and many of the women in my pack were only good as fuck buddies.Kicking at the carcass of the fox I had finished feasting on, I stared at the night sky as several howls resounded from afar.Standing up, I stretched my aching limbs and sniffled as a new scent wafted into the air.The hair on my body prickled, and my ears perked up.I dashed towards an opening and halted."Mate!" Ajax growled.I stared into my mate's eyes and doubted she knew who I was.Five hundred years of being hopeless, roaming the world, and searching for the cursed mate that was talked about in the prophecy.

    ALLISON POVI didn't know why but for some reason, I seemed drawn to this mysterious werewolf. I felt a familiar feeling. A feeling I only got from a particular person; I felt it with this werewolf.My eyes narrowed as I stared into its icy blue eyes. Was this Chase?I didn't know, and I doubted he was the one. The reason I couldn't ascertain if it were he or not was I hadn't seen him shift. Of course, I knew he was an Alpha werewolf, but that was all. And we met just a few weeks ago for me to learn more about him.Yet, I knew all the rooms in the pack house.I grimaced, shaking my head as the image of our last encounter rushed into my mind.Despite how juicy it was, it would be our last.I had broken up with Chase as he couldn't give me a good reason why he had kissed Artemisia.He had even made me look like a fool and had casually dismissed me.

    ALLISON POVWhat could be worst than having a powerful witch point a deadly torch at you, calling you a cursed child on your joyous day?I doubt there was anything worst than that."She has the cursed mark!" Her voice was so loud it almost deafened me. I staggered backward as she moved towards me.Stumbling on my feet, I fell on the ground and stuttered. "W-what do you mean?"My wide eyes moved around the hall, and I saw everyone was frozen in place.It was as if time stopped, and only me and the great witch could move.She snarled. "This is no place for you, the evil one.""I am not evil!" I said firmly, offended by what she was saying to me.I didn't understand what was happening, but I wouldn't say I liked it.More so, what angered me the most was she had jerked me away from my wolf and accused me of what I didn't know of!"You are, and you shall die!" She said and pointed the torch at me once more.I saw it glow, and fire spewed out of it."Leave me alone!" My yelling helped those

    The darkness was all-consuming. It was a thick, suffocating veil that seemed to wrap around me like a cloak.I could feel it seeping into my bones, its icy tendrils creeping through my veins and filling me with a sense of despair.I had been running for what felt like an eternity, my feet stumbling over the rocky ground as I struggled to find my way. I had no idea where I was, but the fear gnawing at my stomach seemed to grow with each passing moment.Dashing out of the pack house at first light wasn't what I envisaged. But then, what had been happening for two days now wasn't what I had imagined.I should have listened to mother. I assumed she was being irrational and had brushed everything aside.But thinking about it now, I knew it was more than rational thought.Of course, I escaped with the help of my mother. I didn't know where exactly I was heading; leaving the pack alive was the only thing that had slipped into my mind.I jumped over several logs and gasped as my leg collided w

    ALLISON POVA kick to my side sent me tumbling off the bed, landing on the ground with a thud. Groaning, I rubbed my eyes and slowly got back on my feet. I realized I was still in Chase's room and that I had fallen because he accidentally kicked me.Chase was currently tossing and turning on the bed, his hands gripping the duvet and his mouth slightly open. I furrowed my brows, leaning in to try and understand what he was saying, but all I could make out was, "No, no, no!"He was definitely having a nightmare, I thought. Reaching out to smooth his brows, I winced as his skin felt hot to the touch. His fever had gotten much worse.I walked towards the bathroom, grabbed a bowl, filled it with water, and took a towel before returning to him. Dipping the towel in the water, I squeezed it out before placing it on his forehead. It seemed to calm him down for a few seconds before he started again. This time, he groaned loudly, shifting uncomfortably in bed.I reached out to touch his shirt t

    CHASE POVI stared at the door for a long moment, then shook my head. Convincing Allison was never going to be easy; I knew that much. But I was determined to keep trying.A sharp wince escaped my lips, and I pressed a hand to my side where it ached. Glancing down, I saw my shirt was quickly soaking through with blood."Damn it!"I had really done a number on myself. It wasn't often that I took a hit in a fight, but going up against about twenty werewolves, that was bound to happen."Twenty damned werewolves," I muttered, standing up and making my way to the small bar by the bed. I poured myself a whiskey, then peeled off my shirt and poured some of the liquor onto the wound.Gritting my teeth, I examined the injury. Steam trickled out of it, and it was already starting to form an ugly purple bruise.It hurt like hell, but I had a feeling it wasn't the only thing hurting. My heart was heavy, too. Convincing Allison felt like an impossible task.I wondered how much longer I'd have to k

    Alison's POVChase.I peered through the window as he fought with the leader. I felt a sense of fear creeping in. I was constantly getting into trouble, but Laurent and Sinclair were always there to defend me, even when I was the one at fault. They were always ready to fight for me.Now, I had involuntarily pulled Chase into the same dangerous situation. I never imagined that our first night together at his house would escalate like this, and it was hardly my fault.The guy had been catcalling me persistently, and I had ignored each comment. But then he went as far as to smack and grope my ass, and I had finally snapped. I ended up breaking his fingers, not intending to fight but acting out of sheer frustration. Unfortunately, the rest of his gang saw me as an easy target.I ended up beating them up pretty badly, even though I was exhausted afterward. It all happened on my first day here, and I completely lost control of myself. I didn't anticipate that they would trace me back to Cha

    CHASE POVI scoured the surroundings for a while, releasing a growl as a new yet familiar scent infiltrated my nostrils. Having canceled my appointment with Sharon, I sensed danger in the air. I lingered by the woods before eventually making my way back home. Whoever had been stalking me remained in the vicinity, but I was cautious about exposing myself.While I wasn't precisely vulnerable or capable of dealing with anyone who crossed me, I harbored doubts that the threat was solely human.Approaching the door, I narrowed my eyes upon hearing rustling from the shrubs a few feet away. My ears perked and twitched, and a low growl escaped me as the intruder leaped out of concealment. A large grey wolf with gleaming red eyes stood before me. Assuming a defensive stance, I observed that it was not alone."Who the hell are you?!" I growled, my eyes narrowing further. I attempted to probe their mind, but my gift chose the most inconvenient time to falter.Just my luck, I mused with an eye ro

    CHASE POVAllison stood by the door, her eyes alert. She seemed as if I might suddenly grab her and throw her onto the bed, taking her forcefully. Although that thought briefly crossed my mind, I preferred her to approach me willingly. Forcing her into something she didn't desire was not what I wanted.As for the earlier announcement I had made, even I was taken aback by it. I had never expected to utter those words. It was something that had never crossed my mind before. I never wanted to mate with Allison. It was evident that we weren't right for each other. She appeared to be the kind of woman who sought more, while I wasn't inclined to fulfill all her desires; in fact, that was why I had refrained from marking her.I wasn't bothered by her rejection.Admittedly, this might have been a foolish decision, but I had wanted to avoid a scenario where she demanded more than I could provide. However, the reality was that she was the cursed child from the moon, and currently, she was my on
