Interrogation RoomYuna's POVAfter what felt like a few seconds of torture, we were finally able to tackle the stray wolves and get to Med Lauren, the betrayer among humans.As soon as we captured him, we left the place with our soldiers who were mostly injured and some were on the verge of dying. I was fuming at the sight of my people dying because of other specie but I had to gulp my anger. I had more important things to take care of.We finally left the place in our cars and saw the wolves taking their steps back inside the forest since their so-called leader was now not with them but with us.They growled at us from afar but could only bang their own heads if they wanted to harm someone.Harry knocked the betrayer we caught and contacted the hospital to admit the soldiers we were gonna bring.Calvin was driving the van with the injured soldiers and Alice was accompanying remaining soldiers in other van. As Mia drove us back to academy, the ride was silent. Almost after 20 brutal
In the BedroomYuna's POVLaying on the bed, I still kept thinking about my actions and I felt immense regret filling in me. Not that I was guilty for hurting him, that asshole deserved it. But I didn't wanna be the one doing it.I closed my eyes and heard an echo in my mind."I always look up to you. You're practically my sister, Yun. You feeling down makes me depressed too." Harry did not know how the words worked like magic to me and the corner of my lips turned up slightly with those words. I wanted to say something in return, a thank you could have been sufficient or anything would have work, but all I did was nod. I hope he doesn't feel rejected or anything. I never knew the Yuna who was so cruel to someone was so loving and strong for someone else. While she became a villain in her mate's eyes, she became an inspiration and hero for her friends, her fellow specie.Mate. Astrid.Thinking of his name made my stomach sink with fear and sadness. I know it was not my place to feel
The dark roomYuna's POVAfter Calvin wrapped the bandage around my burned skin, he left the room hoping that I get a good sleep.But now sleep was long gone. I wanted to do something about everything that is happening. If I don't know why am I here, I might as well try and fix a few things while I'm at it. Maybe it will work and I'll be given second chance at my own life?I stood up, away from the comfort of the bed I was laying on and left the room. I headed straight to the interrogation room where the criminal was locked up and knocked out.I went inside and closed the door behind me, indicating the man tied in chair about my arrival.It was as if someone had slapped him in his sleep, he flinched and woke up. He looked at me and his eyes widened while I could not keep my eyes normal either.He face was red and bruised heavily but it looked temporary. The bruises would heal but would take time, and the pain would remind him of the reason why he had it.I felt bad for being that reas
Holiday at the mansionAstrid's POVI woke up early in the morning and silence of the house engulfed me. I guess they were gone now.I left my bed and did my morning routine. I took my watch and left the room, making my way to the kitchen to grab something for my hunger.I was surprised when I saw Aurther, one of my 20 friends, in the kitchen doing something in a pan."Morning." I said casually and peeked into what this guy was doing."Pancakes, my Lord?" He asked, smirk plastered on his face."Yes, my servant." I smirked back and he laughed."You didn't go?" I asked, taking a seat on the counter of the kitchen.While I'm at my mansion, none of the staffs would be around as per my instructions and they would just clean and arrange the things either when I'm gone or early in the morning. So, my guess was that they were in the dining hall, cleaning the yesterday's mess.I like being between too much company but the staff working do not seem to be a company when all they do is their assig
In TranceYuna's POVStumbling on my way back out of the interrogation room, I felt so heavy. The words, the images, and everything else kept flashing in my mind one by one slowly and painfully. The room which made me recall every deed that I had done was coming back to me. I was desvestated.With all the memories which was not even mine, but they all belonged to me. I held onto the the wall and kept taking slow steps away from that room with my vision turning blurry after each step and the aching pain surging through the nerves of my brain was making it impossible for me to move forward. I was almost crawling back to the room that I left last night and the tears rolled down my eyes. I was sweating constantly and my dress was sticking to my body.I somehow managed to reach the door and clutched onto the door knob trying my best to turn it open but it was as if my hands had lost it's energy, it kept slipping. My knees gave up and I fell down with a thud and held onto my head which ke
Un-simple BreakfastYuna's POVA voice fainly echoed in my deep slumber, bringing me back awake as my eyes slowly fluttered open to see the light view of the bedroom. Mia was lean close to my frame and looked at me with her doe eyes."Hey." I whispered in a hoarse voice and tried to sit up straight. The headache was by now gone and I was able to sit up without any difficulty. Guess, I needed some sleep."Hey." She said, smiling. "Now wake up, we're gonna get you something to eat and then leave." She informed and stood up."Yeah." I groaned lightly and left the bed."You need any help?" She asked."Nah, thanks." I said and headed towards the bathroom to take a quick shower as I had been sweating a lot before sleeping."Okay. Take your time. Lunch is almost done." She said and left the room.I went inside the bathroom and did my morning routine before grabbing my phone and heading outside the room. I walked through the corridor and made my way towards the main office of the academy and
Office Dining roomYuna's POV"Oh, I'm sorry. Are you hurt?" I asked, voice sounding nothing close to concern. I rolled my eyes when I saw him holding his nose in pain.Spare me if I can not handle perverts. Ugh."It's okay, sweetie." He groaned but straightened up and his smirk was back. "You can even stab me and I would gladly die for you." He smirk grew wider and I lips curled in disgust."Anyway, Merlin." I changed the topic and spoke. "I wanna speak with Med." I said. There were a few things I had to take care of before they did anything to him. I had to pretend that I have not spoken to him or have not even seen after I poured down a litre of hot water down his throat and on his head."Why?" Alice asked and frowned. I can not have them concerned for me when I was all along bad to them all.I had planned something else personally with that guy and I had to hide my plan with them for now."Just want to make sure he has not planned anything with his team prior. You know, he might ha
Interrogation roomYuna's POV"What do you mean?" I blurred unintentionally before I could realise that this was a situation where I had to hold my mouth and choose each word after thinking for a while.But he simply shrugged as if my question was normal and nothing suspicious. He made his way to the couch again and sat down after he had stood up when I announced my demand."I mean I will help you." He said and crossed his one leg over the other while his fingers remained entangled and he smiled lightly while looking at me."Like what?" I asked."I will prepare a back-up for you. If you feel any danger while talking to him, you can click the button from the device placed on the wall beside the door and the gaurds will barge inside." He said.The interrogation room was a soundproof four wall spacious room where the voices from the inside travelling outside was a close to no possibility. So, it would be very difficult for screaming voice to reach outside. This interrogation room is on t
Walking inside Dora's room, he expected to find Sylvie beside her, but she wasn't. Maybe she went to the terrace. He went to check if she was fine and found her standing safely behind the grill, her back in his direction. He didn't disturb her and went back to Dora who was still sleeping. Sitting beside her, he stroked her hair thinking about the word Sylvie told but he ignored it in between the argument. 'Boyfriend' she had said. How did she get to know? Guess this little girl was smart. He scoffed and looked at Dora's eyes which were closed. He was yearning to see her Hazel orbs but seeing her like this, he found her adorable. —Frederick's POV— She smiled. When I looked at her, I couldn't help myself but wonder what was she dreaming about. Are you dreaming about me? So silly of me. You'd even be hitting me in your dreams for god knows which fault I committed. I scoffed at my thoughts leaning back, still stroking her cheeks. They're not wet because of tears but I could feel her
When Dora was about sleep, she realized she haven't talked with Fred all day. Her health was improving slowly which was unexpected.She thought her body was strong enough to cure anything, but she was so wrong. Sighing deeply, she lay on the bed staring at the ceiling quietly thinking about the giftshe brought. The gift might be useless but she had no idea if Fred would find it cute.After roaming a lot in the market, she ended up calling her little sister for any ideas and the suggestion was so simple! She regretted not having any gift buying knowledge but it wasn't like it was her choice though. Thinking of a gift for Fleur was a tough job as she didn't know much about her so all she could buy was a show flower bouquet with no fragrance.Just when she was about to doze off, a notification on her phone made her excited as she quickly grabbed it and checked it was Fred.An instant smile took place on her sleepy face as her fingers started replying to his texts.Soon after a long talk
Shaking off all the thoughts, I waited for Eric to return. I couldn't call anyone. I seriously need to go there and meet.It's all because of the invention of the phone that we never memorize anyone's numbers.But I'll memorize everyone's numbers now. As Eric entered the room, he raised his eyebrows twice before resting them again asking me if I called anyone."I don't remember anyone's number." I sighed. I left my phone in the car before we headed to meet Roy. I frowned as a question popped up in my mind."It's okay. Meet them when you're okay." He patted my head."Can I ask you something?" I asked. Seeing my serious face, he frowned too."Yeah, sure.""When you found me, did you find anyone else with me?" I asked.I know this might be a stupid question or may create many doubts but I needed to make sure if Roy was still alive.He hesitated to speak for a while which tensed me. Growing up anxiety ate up all my patience as I sat straight ignoring the pain for some time."Uh... yes." H
Nymphadora's POVFluttering my eyes as my brain gave a command to open it, I closed them again as the bright light forced itself on my face. Feeling my lungs alive, I took a deep breath slowly feeling my surroundings.I was lying on a soft mattress covered by the sheets. My hips were paining to the point that it made it impossible for me to move. My foot was aching with pain too.I felt bandages. I was still struggling with the sun and felt like it was fighting me to stay put as I was.Trying to raise my hands, I felt as if they were working after a long time, I rubbed my palms on my forehead before protecting my eyes from the direct sun as my throat left a voice that sounded annoyed."Oh, you're awake!" I heard a male voice but couldn't pull myself to turn my head in the direction of the origin.I heard the footsteps across the room and eventually noticed the sunlight was gone. He had pulled the curtains close.I finally managed to open my eyes to see a well-decorated ceiling, probab
The temporary base campAstrid's POVI, along with my father, headed towards the base camp set by the soldiers of both of the kinds. Finding out about the creature's motive and the one giving him orders was necessary. Because even if right he was caught, she was on the lose. There is nothing stopping her from finding another deer for doing her dirty work while she lived anonymously. Taking a full breath was out of question and I was craving to take my real form because of the anxiety and lack of breath, but I had to calm down.I looked at my father sitting beside in the car, he was looking outside with his hand on his lips and elbow resting near the window. He was still in deep thoughts and I decided not to disturb him. The car ride remained silent until we reached out destination and we stood outside.I closed my eyes for a while to focus on my breathing and took a long breath. We both walked inside and the soldiers greeted us. I saw the human soldiers standing alongside our soldier
Astrid's POVIt was supposed to be my day off because of the weekend but who said I was working as employee? I was the King and I had no such things called holiday in my life. Sounds painful, but yeah, I had already accepted this. I never had any problem in working but Yuna always made me want to take leave and just tuck in the bed and spend some quality time with her. But alas, here I was.I was still wearing my nightwear since I had no one to see or talk to but I had to just read some papers and sign a few documents before I could head out. I opened my father's office and saw him sitting on the chair with his head leaning back and eyes closed with a frown. I approached him and saw his hands entangled on his lap.He was probably thinking something deeply and that was when I saw the file lying in front of him which was attached to a picture. A picture of a man."Dad." I called him out."Take a look at this file." He said without moving an inch from his place and I held the file in my
Warm waterAstrid's POV"No." She said. I wanted to scream and jump in joy with her approval but I contained myself. I did not want to do anything that would scare her in any way but just wanted to comfort her in her ways. She loved warm bathtub time and loved it even more when I massaged her head while she rested.Not that she ever accepted my help nor confessed that she liked it. It was I who insisted on helping her with a promise that I would not get horny, which was difficult.That would be the first time she agreed with me. I helped to remove her dress because her hands and legs were weak and pale. But even after being pale and tired, her face turned rosy when I pecked her lips and I loved having that effect on her.I scooped her in my arms and headed towards the bathtub filled with warm water and bath bombs. She was just so perfect in my arms that I always wanted her in them.I gently placed her in the water and she sighed in relief. I smiled a bit and took a small stool and plac
Lord's BedroomYuna's POVAfter a long time, I finally opened my eyes after keeping them shut even after waking up for quite a while. I scared to look around or worse see if there was someone waiting for me to wake up.Especially, the lord.The room was dark since the curtains were closed and the light was not allowed to get in much. It was daytime. I took a deep breath and tried to sit up the support of my elbows but laid back down with a hiss.My whole body was in extreme pain and my brain was numb, dizzy. I closed my eyes again, realising that not moving or waking up was so better.Now my body was aching with pain even when I was not moving. This was worse. But I could not feel the ankle detector on my legs anymore. Was it gone or I just could not feel it because my body for used to it?I slowly opened my eyes and looked around the room. It was Astrid's room. Everything in that room was the same, not that a few days would have changed anything. The smell of the room reminded me of
Astrid's POV"Thanks, mom." I replied and looked at father and he nodded before turning to his wife."My Juliet, this knight in his not so shining armour would now have to return his task of saving this lazy world. Now, if you excuse me." He bowed and kissed her knuckles, making her chuckle and dramatically turned around, pushing me and walking out of the kitchen.I rolled my eyes but followed him as we made our way to his office and his whole demeanor changed as I closed the door behind me. Same old dad."I heard that Ulfred told you something." He said and leaned on the table, hands crossed on his chest."He told me that the human army were actually trying to warn us about the sealed gates getting endangered and an underground creature on lose lurking in the human world." I said and he frowned with his eyes wide."Then what happened to him?" He asked."They said he was found near the hunter's society while the remaining soldiers were trying to tell the our soldiers about this and tr
