DANTE. My eyes didn’t move for Estelle’s one bit, not because I was excited to see her, no, but because I didn’t know what she would do next. The female was a fucking witch if anyone could remember and seeing what she just did to Alessia without even moving a finger or her mouth to recite the spell, I can tell she was even stronger. “Now…,’ she began when the hall was finally empty, except for Fred, a hurt Alessia who was getting healed by the minutes, I bet it would take her two more minutes to be okay, Andrea and me. I ordered Andrea’s friends to take the little pup and leave the room. “Dante, it isn’t right for you to stare at me like I am a hooded criminal. I think what we need to do is to welcome me with both hands wide open because you haven’t seen for…. What was it? Years? Century?” She questioned and let an evil giggle after. “I don’t want you here, leave the same way you care and there will be no trouble,” I said taking three steps forward. Andrea looked at me in panic
ANDREA. I was fuming in anger as I watched the bitch trails her hands all over my mate, I was mad, mad at Dante even though I knew he wasn’t in control of his body. I was mad at him for letting her touch what was mine. Eliza was also fuming inside as we looked at Estelle touching and saying naughty and dirty things to our mate. She wanted to come out and claw at her face, change that smirk she had on to a crying face. Eliza was trying to come out, but the spell she placed on us was too strong for us to break down easily, we did all we could and we went feral when Estelle moved her hand out of our mate's trousers and kissed him. She was a fucking bitch for her to touch what is ours. Eliza snapped out of her spell and without thinking of anything, I lunged at her, throwing her far away from Dante. Without giving her a chance to gain her composure, I pinned her on the ground, hitting her, and made my claws come out. I didn’t shift fully, since I would like to be in control as I bea
THE CRESCENT MOON PACK. After that embarrassing moment where Nicholas was thrown out of the Blood Moon Pack, he swore to take back his mate and also make Dante pay. He has become more restless and agitated since he saw Andrea, he could vividly remember how beautiful she looked when her eyes glazed at his, how fucking sensual she looked in that dress of hers. He regretted his decision of ever rejecting her but it wasn’t too late to take her back, and he was planning to do just that. “For the love of gods, leave this fucking room right now, Nicholas!” His mother yelled, barging into his room. He has refused to see anyone since they came back from the Blood Moon pack and kicked himself in his room. He didn’t want to see anyone, especially his annoying chosen mate who went on rattling what happened to his parents like the doll she was. “I will mother, but not now.” Luna Lily looked at her son who was looking haggard and unkempt, like he wasn’t the Alpha of the pack. “I’ve told you
ANDREA. Three Weeks Later. Everything was surprisingly silent, there hadn’t been any attack from the dark witches since Estelle came to the pack, and I wondered why she came back to the pack if she wasn’t here for revenge or anything. Well, Estelle has not been able to talk, she won’t just say anything and no matter what we do she won’t say anything. She liked to be alone with Dante in the room we kept her in, but that was a no-go area for me. I wouldn’t leave her and Dante in a room after seeing how seductive and ethereal she looked the other night, not like I don’t trust Dante though, but I don’t trust Estelle. My powers have gotten stronger, and I have even come to know I was able to see the future, goddess it was so had to contain the whole of it. While I haven’t gotten a hang of one, another would just appear, and then I will work on that and that is so tiring. Just last week, Fred came to the pack mad, and what made him mad was still unclear to everyone but Dante, so I took
ANDREA. “Rogues.” We were surrounded, and their rotten smell became noticeable and unbearable to take in, I noticed another thing that was different with these rogues from the ones I had seen before. These rogues had dark magic, which means that a dark witch was aiding them. Shit! I cursed as my thought went to Estelle who was in the pack house, they came here for her. I thought they wouldn’t come since it had been three weeks, but who was I kidding? ‘Andrea, don’t do anything drastic. Let me fight.’ Fred said, and I scoffed. There is no way I am going to stand at the side like a princess waiting for her Prince Charming when I can fight. ‘I won’t leave this one on you, Fred, and it’s best if we both fight them together. It will be quicker, so we can get to the pack house.’ He agreed nonchalantly. ‘But be careful, these rogues have dark magic in them.’ I warned as he made to attack one that was coming closer. He paused then took his eyes to me and that was a huge mistake,
ANDREA. The next time I woke up, my head felt groggy, and I felt like all my energy was drained from my body, I felt so light that it was a problem to lift my hand. My eyes adjusted to the bright light in the room, l blinked a few times before I was able to open my eyes fully, I looked around me and found out I was in an unfamiliar place. I tried to recollect what happened before this and gradually the small pieces started filling in, how I was tricked to leave the pack, and how the dark witches caught me. But where the hell was I? I tried sitting up but couldn’t, I felt my wrist but didn’t feel any shackle on it, same with my leg, but I just couldn’t move them. I tried again, but it was still futile, I still couldn’t move and the more I struggled, the more the invisible shackle on my legs and hands tightened. “Don’t bother doing that.” My head snapped to the direction the voice came from, but I couldn’t see anyone there. “And also don’t bother doing that either, you can’t see
ANDREA. I looked at the four of them and giggled, even though I felt dread in the depth of my stomach thinking about what they planned for me, but I wouldn’t give them the satisfaction of seeing me drown in fear. “We just want something little from you, Andrea,” Estelle spoke up this time and I was amused. I thought she was going to act dumb and just stare at me. “Something that the world wants so dearly from you, something about you saving them from the doom the moon goddess places us all in.” I blanked, as my thoughts went wild. “You can’t take it from me, Estelle,” I said, venom spilling from my words. Goddess, I’m so mad. “Really?” She bemused, “And who told you that, my dear sweet little Andrea.” I growled again when she called me that. “I’m not little, you asshat, and it’s impossible to take my gift. It was bestowed upon me by the moon goddess and you, your wretched mother, and those clowns you have by your side can take it away from me.” I said confidently, and the n
ANDREA. ‘What do you mean by that?’ I asked, my chest already getting achy. It shouldn’t be what I am thinking, no, it couldn’t be. ‘I can’t say, Andrea, wait for it to come to you.’ Eliza retracted to the back of my mind. I tried to talk to her more, but she blocked the mind link, leaving me unsatisfied with her words, I wanted to know more. “Are you even listening to me, Andrea!” Morgana snapped, pulling me out of my thoughts. “What!” I also snapped at her, goddess can they just do what they want and leave me the hell alone. “The nerves Andrea, you have the nerve to snap at me.” She yelled, moving closer. I ignored her, taking my eyes from them to the high ceiling with a huge chandelier. Come to think about it, are they going to let that thing fall on me while I’m lying here? My eyes didn’t move from the chandelier even as Morgana came closer. “We don’t have all day Andrea, so you better listen to what I have to say.” She whispered in my ear. “Then why don’t you get o
An hour later. We were in the Crescent Moon Pack house, Dante and Fred were already here so we didn’t meet much of their interaction. Nicholas was the first to see me as I walked in, and he rushed to my side, Rae and Alessia in a defensive stance behind me as they saw him coming closer. “Please forgive me, Andrea! I… I had no idea my parents did that to your parents, please, we are sorry.” He begged as he fell on his knees. I stared at Nicholas and looked around if I could see Lilith anywhere, but she was nowhere to be found. My eyes met with Sarah’s and I could see her trying to hold her tears. I nodded at her, and she smiled before taking my gaze back to Nicholas on the ground. “I forgive you, Nicholas. Yes, I forgive you and your sister because I know you weren’t there when that happened, all I need from you is for you to return my father’s pack to me.” I said. He answered quickly before I could even finish my words, “Take it, Andrea. You can take it because it belongs t
ANDREA. TWO WEEKS LATER. Two weeks have passed since little Audrey left us for a better place. The pain of her loss was still there and I blame myself every day for not being quick, for not saving her on time. Hell, I blame myself for coming out of the bunkers, I got to know from the guards placed outside the bunkers that Audrey slipped out when she didn’t see me. She came out because of me because I couldn’t do one thing I was instructed to do. I hosted myself in a pity party and used sex as a way out, for the past two weeks I have been extra horny and wanted to jump on Dante’s bone more than ever. I thought it was because I was still grieving, but it was becoming too much. Dante tried to pull me out of my grief, but it was so hard, it was hard to forget those cute eyes and lips. Those eyes that were always staring at me in admiration…. Now I can’t see them anymore. She was gone. “I miss you, Audrey,” I whispered and then groaned when my stomach growled for the umpteenth time t
DANTE. “You can’t kill her, Dante.” She said after laughing to her fill. My brows raised at what she said, “Do you think I’m bluffing, witch, I will kill your daughter the same way you killed my parents.” I let my claws grow and then positioned them at Estelle’s neck, but Morgana said something that halted my plans. “You can’t kill her because she’s your sister.” She yelled and I froze. I froze where I was standing for some good minutes when I heard that, there was no way that was true, right? That couldn’t possibly be right, there was no fucking way Estelle could be my sister. Fuck! I don’t feel any sibling bond with her, and she doesn’t have a fucking wolf in her. Lycans are special and any family with the Lycan blood has a close bond with their sibling(s) like the way I have one with Alessia, but I don’t feel anything for Estelle so it was pretty clear that she was lying. Everything she was saying was to buy tile, and I’m not falling for that anymore. I stared at Morgan
‘Please save her, Dante.’ I managed to pass the message through the mind link, then took my eyes back to little Audrey, who was still running towards me. ‘Don’t come any closer, Audrey.’ Morgana stopped muttering her spells and I gasped in shock when she took one hand from mine and then stretched it towards little Audrey, and my eyes opened wide in shock. “No.” My heart thundered as I looked at little Audrey who wasn’t attempting to flee from there, and then my eyes moved to Morgana who was still reciting some spell with her hands stretched out. My eyes widened as I saw the spell going straight to little Audrey’s way, I tried to hold Morgana’s hand, but I was far too weak to do anything. Summoning all the strength I could mutter, I yelled, “Save her, Dante, please,” I begged with my other hand glued to Morgana’s. She wasn’t letting this go easy….she promised not to hurt anyone. I couldn’t move with my hand trapped in Morgana’s, my heart pounded as my breath sized. I wat
DANTE. The fight with the dead rogues and witches was both exhausting and tiring, they all didn’t want to die a second time and anytime we thought they were dead they would rise again. All my focus was on the rogues I was trying to kill, I didn’t know where Andrea was, but I could feel she was doing okay through our bond. I was busy fighting with the undead rogue for the fifth time when Jocelyn came to my side, she looked at me and then whispered something in my ear. My eyes widened immediately and when I looked at the other side, I saw Andrea already there speaking with Morgana. She wasn’t supposed to be there without anyone by her side…without me by her side. “Go Dante, I will hold this,” Fred said and I turned to him. I didn’t even know he was behind me. “Thanks,” I looked at Jocelyn who nodded then took off with Jocelyn running after me. Isa saw us and quickly ran after us. ‘Wait for me, Andrea.’ ~~~~~~~~~~ ANDREA. I got to Morgana’s side quicker than I thought and
ANDREA. I looked at Dante who had shifted and was already by my side, he pulled me closer to his warm body. “What is she doing?” He asked. “Dark magic,” I replied. I looked up, and the once sunny sky had turned dark, a strong wind blew out of nowhere while Morgana kept on chanting. My eyes widened when I saw the already dead witches and rogues waking up, and walking towards Morgana…..what the fuck!! Everyone stopped fighting as they watched the dead rising and walking towards Morgana, even the headless witches woke up and walked aimlessly towards Morgana. Morgana had a wide smile on her face as she kept on chanting and calling on whatever demon she was summoning. “We have to do something, Andrea,” Alessia said, coming over to my side. I looked at her and asked, “What can we do? The deed has already been done, we can’t turn back the hand of time unless we have that.” I said, pointing at Morgana. They all shuddered and shook their heads. “What on earth is happening here?”
ANDREA. I couldn’t stay with the women and children in the bunkers, not when my mate and every other warrior in the pack was fighting out there. I wanted to go out there since those witches came for me and I did it, after making sure all the women and children were accounted for, I sneakily left the bunkers without alerting the guards placed outside. When I made it to the battleground I saw the fight already in full swing, the smell of blood that covered the ground from dead witches or wolves hit me. I looked around at the number of her people fighting, trying to see if I could find Dante anywhere, but I couldn’t see him. My eyes met with Fred’s and for a minute, he was shocked to see me standing there. “What the fuck are you doing here, Andrea?!” He yelled, completely ignoring his surroundings. My eyes widened when I saw a witch approaching him from behind. “Watch out.” Out of instinct, I stretched my hand out and the witch's head blew off. Her body slumped on the ground wh
ANDREA. “We are under attack!!!” I froze in where I was standing as my mind comprehended the words I just heard. Under attack again… I woke up from my reverie when something tugged my dress, “We need to leave Andrea. Now!” Alessia didn’t wait for my reply before dragging me out. Although I was following her, I still couldn’t believe that we were under attack, by whom and why? The warriors who were sound and ready to fight rushed out of the infirmary with us also, and while we were heading back to Dante’s pack house they assured me that they would do everything possible to protect the pack. “Where’s Andrea?” Dante hissed, rushing outside and that was only when I came back to my senses. “I’m here, Dante.” I was immediately engulfed in his warm body and he kissed my head. “What’s going on, Dante?” I asked, pulling from the hug and searching his face. “We are under attack, Andrea, and I need you to go inside with the other women. Take your Luna to safety.” He ordered a warrio
ANDREA. “Dante!!” I called out in panic and watched in horror as the witch’s light ball moved quickly in his direction. My heart was beating hysterically as I watched Dante look at the light in both shock and anger, but he didn’t move. ‘Come on, Dante,’ I urged in my mind as I whispered a silent prayer to the goddess. I opened my eyes and saw Dante move quickly to the side, he growled and charged at the witch. I let out a sigh of relief and a tear rolled from my eyes when I saw he was okay. He killed the witch and the two others before facing me, he was breathing heavily, and my eyes roamed around his body, searching for any cut on his body and I gasped when I saw the huge injury on his back. My legs automatically carried me to his side, and before I knew it I was holding his hands, “Are you alright?” I asked, searching his eyes for any sign of pain. But all I could see there was happiness and relief. “I’m so glad you’re okay, Andrea.” He pulled me into a hug and I melted in
