Michael's POVShe looks thoroughly bewildered. Of course she cannot believe me. Why would she anyway, when she seems me a wretched beast? Nothing I will say or do will break through to her. I look her straight in the eye to ensure she sees I am telling the truth. Her bewilderment, a clear indication that she has no recollection of the events that led to all this.She heaves and then walks over to Hermes. She bends down and starts chanting some strange language, obviously a spell. Hermes gasps and regains his consciousness. Which leaves me to wonder why he succumbed to the pain when he is clearly able to abate it."So, the mighty Hermes, the do called god of trickery cannot heal himself now huh? Pray, tell me Hermes, are you now playing the innocent mortal guy here?""No beast. Of course I know my love's true identity. However, I created a spell to limit the strength of one's true form in this place. In other word

Michael POVShe is feisty and right now, she is livid. I can tell that she is a woman of principle and Hermes has just broken one if not more of her principles. I like that about her. Oddly enough, I feel that I can work with her with no squabbles. I watch her stare at Hermes, a raging storm building in her eyes. She starts chanting again, her body swaying side to side. At the same time, the room temperature drops to an unbearable degree. I see something that I had never seen before. Fear in Hermes's eyes. The god of trickery is terrified and he is not hiding it. He trembles as he painstakingly pulls out the ice pick from his thigh. He grunts and almost passes out from the pain. "I am sorry Aurora. I did it for love. I saw the opportunity and I grabbed it. I just wanted to be with you. Please understand my queen.""Just wanted to be with me? At what cost Hermes? Surely you want to find happiness after destroying someone else? You snatch thi
Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Freeing Summer
Michael POVI watch her saunter out of the room gracefully and I scoff inwardly. How can she act so normal when she has just sentenced Hermes to a century of torture? Witches sure are a weird race. I race after her and catch up with her by the stairs. I have a lot of questions to ask but I decide against it. She might be looking calm but the way she is clenching her jaws says otherwise. She is still mad and I am not ready to be put in a meat grinder for a century. Who can dispute that? She is capable of anything after all. "I can feel your apprehension little wolf. It is tainting the air I breathe. Loosen up, I do not bite. Rather, should I not be the one being wary of you? After all, you are a predator. Your aura says it all. You are a high-ranked wolf."She is right you know. However, I still cannot shake off the torture that Hermes is going through. I gulp and force a smile as I walk closer to her. "So, my lady, where are we going?""Anyw
Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Alone And Afraid
Alone And Afraid Summer POVI do not know how Hermes managed to mind link me but it gave me a very bad premonition. A big part of me at that time just wanted to back off but the responsibility thrust upon me made me strong. However, right now, I wish I had paid heed to my instincts. Hermes is a trickster and he has just tricked all of us. The moment I touched him, I felt like being sucked into a vortex. Everything became dark and I felt as if I was being pushed further away into my subconscious. Initially, I thought that it was Sunny fighting me for control. However, this felt like a forceful takeover. Nothing that she has ever done before. I tried to reach Seraphim but the void I felt was as if she has never been there. Neither could I feel Sunny as well. I panicked but at the same time decided to be strong. When we got to the land of Magica. I still could control my body and movements. Automatically, I knew that Hermes was up to no good. Whe

I have to correct this before the whole balance of the universe is tipped over irreparably. pop feedI have been aware that the gods need me to eradicate some evil threat in the universe. It has been a while since I have been reawakened but I was yet to fully connect with the human in question. It had to be quite overwhelming for a teenager to be a bearer of such immense power.However, the time I was about to break through and be able to communicate with her, I found myself back in Magica in the hands of my long-lost lover Hermes. The nerve of that trickster! Imagine for him to recreate a sin from our past? Also, the moment I felt him, all rationality went flying out of the window. It has been a whole millennium if not more since I saw him. How could I not have been carried away? I
Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Back In My Arms Again
Michael POVI have always known that witches hold immense power amongst supernatural beings. They are the ones with the power to annihilate us all if given a chance. However, since the days of yore, there has been peace amongst all of us. We were able to keep the peace by following a set of rules put to get her by the supreme council. This consists of members of all factions. However, the wolves and witches hold a higher post. Vampires have always been sneaky and untrustworthy. Therefore, most of them ended up being removed from the council. Even with the council in charge, there have always been rebels from all over. Werewolves, witches, and vampires have been going rogue for a while now. Normally, werewolves go rogue is because they would have been banished due to some abhorrent behavior. Some are just born bad and some turn rogue because of their thirst for power. Others are only rogue because they were born to rogue parents and thus, it is the only life t
Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Marked And Mated
Michael POVWithout any hesitation, I scooped my mate closer and held her as if she is my lifeline. I do not want ever to lose her again. Before I could take another step, I feel as if we are caught up in a whirlwind. I gasp in astonishment getting all wary and alert. "What? I thought in your weakened state and because you're in this era, you would at most just remain werewolf."Aurora voices her opinion but I am yet to grasp what this is all about. Why would she make a fuss about a whirlwind which is weak at that? "You can put me down now Mikey."Only when she says this do I get a clear sight of my surroundings. We are back in the cave! How?"Oh, so now you are perturbed? Precisely what has me baffled as well. How she managed to teleport us back, is beyond me. Anyway, let me warm up the food while you guys get comfortable."I look at my mate and she just smirks mischievously before she scoots closer and rests her head on my chest.
Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Aurora
Summer POVMichael springs up and ruffles his hair. I mentally chide myself for ruining the moment. Why on earth did I have to bring forth the war? I watch him pace up and down, lips pursed and brows knitted. I do not think he remembers that we are fully mated now and I can feel and hear all his emotions and mental battles."Calm down Mikey, we will surely not lose each other anymore."He looks at me and I see his eyes are partly black, showing that Miguel is fighting for dominance. In a guttural voice, he speaks to me."I failed you more than anything mi querida compañera and today I give you my word. I will draw my last breath before I let anyone touch you."The possessiveness in his voice scares and excites me at the same time. I know that a lot has changed henceforth. But I like it like that. Something tells me that I am going to be smothered with love. Not that I am complaining. "Oh, you so have no idea mi querida niña.""Hola to you

Summer POVThe pain is excruciating but my mind is not foggy anymore. I watch everyone running around in a daze. Dr. Boyce is now in his garb and instructing Hailey on what to do. I playback everything that just happened in a bid to ignore the pain. What can I do? I have to come up with a way to cope with it. I recall that when I heard the whisper, 'Umbrage', it was a voice I had almost forgotten. However, if I could not reach out to even my mate when Carla was about to snatch my baby away, how did Hailey, the triplets, and the twins know?Was I hallucinating or did I really glimpse Lenny leading them? Everyone, except Michael, Aurora, mother, Hailey, and Doctor Boyce remained in the room with me. The others had to disperse.

Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Not Everyone Is Worthy Of Compassion
Summer POVWhen I hear someone whisper that despicable dark witch's name, something snaps in me. The dizziness and nausea, cannot hold me down.It is high time I stop behaving like a damsel in distress. Every little trigger, I faint. No more. "Summer! Somebody help! My mate is bleeding profusely. Dr. Boyce, please do something!"I force myself to lift my hand and smack Michael across the face. He gasps and looks at me. My eyes are still blurry but my mind is not foggy at all. I know that I cannot say anything loudly now, but I can surely mentally convey the message. "None of you should try and take me to the hospital. If anything, grandma, Apollo, mother, Mtungagore, and Lesedi, combine forces and do everything you can to delay this baby. I cannot give birth now. Not until we find Tina. We find Tina, we find Umbrage. Then we put an end to all this.""But Aurora is not here, she..""Oh, but I already caught the culprit. I am here now."Grandma Aurora saunters in dragging Tina and Carl
Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Despair
Summer POV"Summer!"Hearing the anxiety in their voices I decide to fight the fatigue and force my eyelids to open.Squinting to shield my eyes from the bright light, I open my eyes tentatively. The look of concern etched on everyone's face tugs at my heartstrings.I raise my hand in a bid to silence them. I am parched and water would be salvation at this moment. Micheal reacts fast and brings me a glass, whilst wiping off his tears with the other."Here, drink up princessa."He says with so much concern as he props me up to an almost sitting position. To my dismay, he only allows me a sip, before pulling the glass away. I glare at him but he only smiles."Lo siento mi querida princessa, but you have to drink it slowly. Doctor's orders."He shrugs at the same time giving me the puppy eyes. I raise my hand to stroke his overgrown stubble and nod. Everyone watches with bated breath whilst I take my time to drink enough water."Before any of you bombard me with questions, can somebody te
Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Peace At Last
Summer POVTime seems to be stagnant and the dream, endless. The peace and tranquillity soothe my soul. I have no idea when last I enjoyed such peace. It has been so long since I could sleep in like this. I yawn at the same time, cursing at the sun for rising too early. Why can the night not stretch for a full twenty-four hours? I mentally curse at whoever pulled the blinds open to allow such blinding sunlight. Groggy, I try to raise my hand to shield myself from the penetrating sun, only to be restricted by an unknown shackle. I try again but no such luck. Wait. Restraints on my hands? How, who, and why?Panicky, I try harder but a soft voice causes me to halt all my attempts. "There, there, dear child, do not panic. If you allow me, can I have a word with you?""First take the restraints off my hands. It certainly wouldn't be a fair fight if you have me all tied up now, would it?"A melodious sound resonates from what I presume to be her direction, as I still have my eyes closed.
Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Forgiven Though Undeserving
Summer POVThe seaweed, as per Nyaminyami's instructions, is to enable us to breathe in water. Unfortunately, we cannot teleport ourselves to his lair. Therefore, we only had to dive into the deep blue sea. Surprisingly, the water was not as cold as it should normally be. The journey to the great snake people's kingdom was quite easy. We have Nyaminyami to thank for that. For us to find his location, he left a beam of light for us. Had Poseidon not rushed to his home earlier, he would have been able to take us there without any problem. Either way, we will meet at Nyaminyami's place. As heavily pregnant as I am, I'm surprised swimming is so easy for me. There must be magic in this water. Before we know it, we arrive at the great snake's home.These serpents are huge and quite unusual I must say. Back on land, they just seemed to be just big giant snakes. However, here, I am gobsmacked. They have hands and almost humanlike heads! As a wolf, I am quite brave but seeing the Nyaminyami
Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Sid To The Rescue
Summer POVMtungagore did not waste any time, he brought Sid back just before dusk. Upon seeing him, I had mixed feelings. Anger and gratitude at the same time. Anger because he allowed Harold to fool him. Grateful for the fact that, had he decided not to retaliate in the end, I most certainly, would have perished in that inferno. At the end of it all, I owe him one and my heart just cannot hate him. He, like many others, was deceived as well. But his strong sense of justice made him overcome. He is the epitome of humanity. "Summer! Is it really you? Howling hailstorm! It is really you!"This guy is insufferable. From where does he get these expressions of his? I cannot contain the smile that slowly creeps onto my lips. I know for sure that I am happy to see him. I walk closer to him and give him a brief hug. "Not possible matey, your belly is protruding. I would not want to disturb the little warrior in there. From the looks of it, you won't have to wait long till you meet him.""
Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Peace And Reparations
Summer POVI pride myself on being a werewolf. We are practically gifted with extremely heightened senses. However, right now, I feel as if my sense of sight is failing. When we left barely ten days ago, this place was in total ruins. But now, my eyes must be dysfunctional. This place looks nothing like it was when we left. The three-story upper part of the great hall has been erected. Construction workers, whom I believe to be human are busy at work. Together with just a dozen of our men. How could uncle Luke do this? Honestly, how can he bring humans to our realm soon after the war? Are we not capable enough? How then can our people celebrate the victory if humans are amongst us?Besides, this is not the time for us to interact with humans. We are yet to rebuild and they obviously will question such a big structure hidden in the middle of the jungle. "Calmate mi querida princessa. I am sure uncle Luke would not make such a blunder. There is surely a good explanation for this."Mi
Abused Yet Indestructible Princess Azania
AzaniaSummer POV"Now let us re-cloak him with the invisibility spell. I am sure we all do not want any more surprises. Let's do that before leaving for Azania."Aurora says this through clenched teeth. She is seething mad and she is trying so hard to contain it. As I draw closer to Lucifer so we can perform the spell together, once again, my son stops me. "You have to leave now mama. There is no time and besides, it is way too risky to linger around here. You can cloak him once you reach Azania."Before asking his reason, I once again, mentally convey the message to my crew. No one interjects. I have already told them about the voice. What I did not do, is telling them who exactly is bringing the messages to me. Mother's instinct I guess. Aurora creates the portal and we all step in. Surprisingly, we do not emerge at the great pyramids of Azania. Instead, our destination is some clearance near a vast river. Everyone stares at Aurora with quizzical gazes. "Oh please don't. If we co

IncapacitatedLucifer's POVHe sweeps his huge tail and throws my captors all a distance away. Only grunts, gasps, and growls signify their annoyance and possibly pain."Jormungand quickly come over here. Forget about that human!""Ah, but she looks tasty your Horridness!""Trust me you vile serpent, she is not as simple as you consider her to be. Do you think I would be in this state if she was as simple as a late lunch snack?""You must be growing old and rusty your Vileness. Allow me or else, I will not rescue you."With that, he shuts me out.I try compelling him and it works. Why the hell did I just not do that from the beginning? My mind is getting mushy lately. It must be the bounds. Just as he coils himself around me, the leader of the Seneca must have seen me. That means Jormungand broke the invisibility spell. The Seneca roars with so much rage that his voice echoes. "You deceptive fool! You knew that if I were to get wind of your predicament, I would not help! You will not
