"I should let the Alpha King know once I’m home. I know. After all, I’m nothing!" I cut her off sharply before she could finish. The words spilled out before I could control them. "Don’t worry, Beta. I already know everything. You don’t have to remind me over and over again!" The venom in my voice s
~Tamara~I had never been happier in weeks than I was sitting on a bench in the park, staring at the breathtaking sunset. The park was alive with joy, and it warmed my heart to see children running around happily while their parents watched over them with smiles.Just watching them stirred a vision
‘’you talk like you know what I want.’’‘’I didn’t because you already mentioned it yourself. Didn’t you say that you want a happy life?’’I folded my arms as I gave him a questioning look. ‘’I don’t think what I wished for was bad because a happy life equals living the best of your life.’’‘’Some l
~Axel~I hadn’t been this angry in a long time—not since Lyra died. But this wasn’t just anger; it was worry, a deep, gnawing concern that consumed me when I learned Tamara was missing. The news hit me like a punch to the gut, dredging up painful memories of Lyra. She had vanished two days before he
‘’Axel, you jerk.’’A smile formed on my face, knowing that she was fine and was also thinking about me, but I couldn’t help but feel like we were being watched by someone. I looked around us but found nothing suspicious, and then I turned back to Tamara and gently lifted her off the bench into my a
‘’so you’d rather have a baby on your own!’’‘’At least I wouldn’t have to be controlled by you all the time!’’ she yelled again and sighed heavily, placing a hand on her forehead as she tried to catch her breath. ‘’I can’t do anything anymore because you always make sure that I am being watched, an
~Tamara~I burst through the door of my room, slamming it shut behind me. I leaned against the door, my chest heaving as I struggled to catch my breath. I wanted to run away. I wanted to escape the suffocating grip Axel had on my life. I wished that I could flee from the constant control, the endles
The man’s response sent ice coursing through my veins. ‘’I am your greatest nightmare,’’ he whispered into my ear. ‘’Run!’’ he shouted at me, then looked down at my stomach. ‘’This child, you will never have it! Kill them, child, and go far away!’’ he said and tried to drop me to the ground, but bef
I glared at her and then scoffed. ‘’none of this would have happened if you had not gone to that park. My brother is out to kill you, and if you don’t as I have said, then you will die before your brother wakes up,’’ I threatened her to put fear in her mind because I would never let her die as Lyra
~Axel~‘’Are you alright?’’ Tamara asked when she heard me groan for the umpteenth time. I turned to look at her, expecting to see the Frown I always have on my face, but instead, she smiled at me.Seeing her act like that worsened things, adding to my aching forehead. Her body was weaker than I tho
"Whatever you’re thinking is right, Tamara," she said, calm but serious. "I don’t know how it happened, but...'' “No,” I shouted and then collapsed to the ground, blacking out and hoping that when I woke up, I would be freed from this madness.~~~~~~~~~"She is waking up," someone's voice sounded h
~Tamara~A voice. A familiar voice echoed in my ears, growing louder as if the speaker was in a heated conversation with someone else. Strangely, the voice sounded exactly like mine, but I wasn’t speaking. At first, I thought I was dreaming until I heard it again, louder this time, and whoever was
Emma smiled and ran a finger along the edge of the dagger. "Don’t worry about that. The dagger won’t hurt her. It’s just going to make a little slit on her palm, and if anything goes wrong, I’ll heal her. Voila, no damage caused."I frowned at how playfully she was acting. Who would have thought the
~Axel~"Your Highness, there is no way I am allowing that!" She took a step forward. "There’s no way in hell you'll risk your life!"Emma sighed and sat down on the bed. "This is going to be a long one," she yawned.I frowned at her, and she shrugged her shoulders. "You joke about everything."She s
Emma's eyes snapped open and met mine. "Her mind is corrupted," she said, wiping her forehead. "She's caught up in a dream, reliving the same nightmare repeatedly. She's being killed, Axel, and she can’t wake up."I felt a chill run down my spine as I looked at Tamara. The trembling had stopped, but
~Axel~“Emma, thank you for coming,” I heaved a sigh of relief as Emma, my witch friend, walked into my lavish living room. She frowned when our eyes met and then rolled her eyes. I knew she was mad since I had contacted her late at night. “Ax,” she muttered, heading towards me. When she reached m
As soon as I entered the elevator and it started going up, the tension suddenly changed, and I could feel her piercing eyes on the back of my head. Curious to see what it was about, I turned and met with her glaring eyes. ‘’I guess you are happy now that Mark has been removed from his job and not al
