~Tamara~ "The dream is a dangerous place!" Emma’s warning echoed in my mind as I stood in front of my brother’s room. She had told me that stepping into Axel’s dream would be painful—that I might not return as the same person. If I failed, I might not return at all.The first person I thought of af
~Tamara~"We shall now begin," Emma said before she started chanting. Her Voice gradually faded until I could no longer hear her, and everything went still. I had no idea what happened after that, but I was in a dark room when I woke up. I couldn’t help but wonder if I was already inside Axel’s drea
Could this be a test within the dream? Was I being challenged to see if I would quit before I even tried?I had no clear answer, but I decided to trust my instincts. Moving closer to one of the walls, I whispered, "You've got this, Tamara." I smiled as an idea suddenly formed in my mind. Since this
~Tamara~When I opened my eyes, someone stood above me, staring down. At first, I could barely see because of the light shining above my head. I blinked and rubbed my eyes, and once they adjusted to the brightness, the face came into view. It was a familiar one.“Axel,” I rubbed my eyes again, thin
Silver, Ian, and Leonora.“Oh goddess,” I turned to the Axel beside me. “Isn’t that Ian?” He nodded. “Wow,” I muttered, unable to believe it. I’d thought Ian and Axel had always hated each other. “How? Don’t they have a long-term feud?”Axel looked at me with a deep frown. “I’m not sure where you go
~Tamara~A blinding light appeared as I kissed Axel. It was so bright that I had to close my eyes briefly, my lips still pressed against his. When the light faded, I found myself in an entirely different place. It appeared to be a hallway, but it resembled a dungeon more than anything else. The unfa
“Beware,” he shouted. “Your ill-fated relationship began when you two met years ago.”I furrowed my brows, confused by what he meant. I pointed at him, then at myself. “Are you saying I’m Lyra?” I asked, making sure I hadn’t misheard. “How the hell am I, Lyra? She hasn’t died for so long, and—“It
~Tamara~I felt a sharp pain in my shoulder as I slowly opened my eyes. Tears streamed down my face as I struggled to understand what was happening. The room suddenly darkened, and for a few minutes, my vision failed me—I couldn’t see a thing. I fought to keep my eyes open, desperate to meet Axel’s
I gritted my teeth, fists clenching. "I knew you planned this!" I yelled. "What do you hope to gain? How?" I lunged at him, aiming for his stomach, but he vanished into thin air.Ian’s laughter echoed as he reappeared behind me. "Be careful now, brother," he said, his tone dripping with malice. "I’v
~Axel~"Where is she?" I questioned the guard I’d assigned to stay by Tamara’s side at the workplace as soon as he reached the mansion. I had expected to see Tamara, but she was nowhere to be found, and instead, the guard had come to report to me alone."She retired to her room as soon as we arrived
~Tamara~As I walked beside Axel toward the front of the company, my heart pounded with anticipation. All eyes turned toward us as we entered my department, the buzz of conversation halting. Employees stared, their curiosity evident, and I felt a flush creep up my neck. Axel, the alpha king, strode
I raised an eyebrow. The witch was the key to bringing down my brother, and Emma had hinted a few days ago that she might be connected to her. “Go on.”Gerald leaned forward, his eyes intense. “It’s our daughter, Axel.”I frowned, confused at what he had said. “Your daughter?”“Yes, the witch,” Gera
~Axel~I walked beside Tamara as we approached the company entrance, her presence drawing the eyes of the employees around us. They stared, whispering among themselves as we walked in. Tamara remained by my side, hiding her face because she had been against that when I suggested it in the morning, b
~Tamara~Axel gently laid me on the bed, leaning in to kiss me again. “Tamara,” he said, his voice low and rough. His hands found my face, thumbs brushing my cheeks gently, and I felt my heart racing with every touch. “I meant it when I said that you were my future back in the dream. I don't know if
I closed my eyes, and just as I was about to drift off to sleep, the door opened again, and Axel Walked in, followed by a servant carrying a tray of food. The rich aroma of roast chicken and freshly baked bread filled the air, making my mouth water.“Tamara,” he said, his voice soft and gentle. “I b
~Tamara~I woke up with a start, gasping for air as if I’d just escaped from a nightmare, which was where I had come from. I looked around, saw the soft light filtering through the windows, and realized I was no longer in the dream.“Thanks, the goddess,” I rubbed a hand on my racing chest gently.
None of the alphas said anything as their heads lowered in submission. I had made my point clear. Tamara would be the Luna Queen, and I’d burn the whole council down before they disagreed.I dropped back into my chair, heaved a deep sigh, and turned to Daris.“What’s your take on these attacks?” I as
