I can feel death creep in the air like a patient predator, watching it's prey. Something deadly was coming soon, I could feel it. The earth would finally quench it's insatiable hunger for blood. The time is fast approaching, we needed to move faster than our enemies.I can feel the Hunter's moon, it's energy is powerful, unlike any before. I know the Hunter's moon is close because of the shadows of the unseen and the whispers in the trees. This wasn't a good omen, it was a warning!"Brother," I greet Kole.He was outside, looking around like he had just lost something, his face even more pale than usual upon seeing me."How is Ava?" I ask only curious about how she was today. She was the only thing that I could think about all day when I was out searching for Sebastian. My wolf and I have grown an insatiable addiction to breathing the air that surrounds her. I wished I could spend much time with her, but I couldn't, not until I took care of Seba
Ava's Point Of ViewI am in a dimly lighted hall, seated right across Sebastian. After he told me his dastardly plan and compelled me to sleep, I was taken to his castle.I watch as he takes a bite from his meal with a smile on his lips. How could he manage to smile with all the chaos he was causing?The golden dagger was before him on the table, this was the weapon that could kill Kaden and the Primordials, and if Kaden dies, so will the entire Midnight pack. I hope Kaden gets my letter and realize that he shouldn't come after me. He can't fall into this trap set by Sebastian. It would be much better if he chooses not to come to save me, although the thought of that happening hurts but it was what was better for the pack. If I could give up my life to save my pack, I would. Even though I was the only way to escape their curse, Krys could find another way to save the pack. It would be for everyone best interest if he doesn't try to save me."You and I both know there isn't a chance of
Ava's point of viewI stepped out of the castle into the morning sunrise, its warmth seeping into my body. I was with Josie, waiting for Kole before joining the others at the stable. Kole joined us soon enough, and the three of us gaited to the stables.It has only been four days since my whole kidnap by Sebastian and his threat for war. Everything in the pack was back to normal, well not completely everything. Some things had undeniably changed.Many of the pack members were already on their horses. Today was a special day, in honor of the hunting moon fast approaching the pack decided to host a hunt in the woods.My eyes scanned around and it fell on Kaden. He was as usual with Cassandra, helping her mount on her horse. They have gotten quite close these past few days, I knew he was just using her to hurt me. I wanted to look away before he caught me staring, but instantly, his perfect emerald eyes met mine.Quickly, I looked away. Honestly, I've been avoiding him these past few d
Ava's point of viewThis is bad.This is really bad.Kaden's angry eyes were on me, showing nothing but hate and utter disbelief.I watched in confusion and horror as Adrien approached Kaden with the crossbow and arrow.Kaden's unfeeling eyes were on me again, after he inspected the arrow with the one in his hands."It's poisoned," he said, with hooded eyes. I gasp. Whoever that man was intended to poison Kaden."And those don't belong to me. It belongs to someone else. A man. He had his face covered, so I couldn't see his face properly. I walked in on him while he was shooting this—" I dragged on, my heartbeat skyrocketing when I noticed the incredulous look everyone seemed to be throwing my way.They couldn't possibly think I would really try to murder Kaden, right? I mean, with that bitch Cassandra, maybe, that might have been a possibility, but with Kaden, I would never.I loved him."Even though I couldn't see the face of whoever shot that, he had the midnight moon mark on his wr
Ava's point of viewIt was past midnight and I was alone in my chamber, crippling to the floor. I tried falling asleep after Josie and Tasha left but I just couldn't. I can't just sleep knowing there is a traitor within the pack trying to set me up.Whoever it was, I needed to figure out who it was. Fast! Before I am persecuted for their crimes.That was when the door suddenly clicked open, I lifted my head up to find Kole at the door. The tears that I had imprisoned rushed out forcefully, before I could stop myself, I was up on my feet racing to him.Instantly falling into his arms.Kole engulfed me, his hands holding me firmly, as more tears escaped my eyes.When I got much control of my emotions, my blue eyes pulled to meet him."I really didn't do it" I counted my words, hoping someone at least believes me.Kole remained silent, his silence shattering my heart. He was the only one I had hope in.Quietly, he led me to my bed. I was seated and Kole crouched before me. His bright haz
Kaden's point of viewI just couldn't sit still. Ace was lashing within me, wanting to be set free, wanting to be with our mate. But I just couldn't let it go. Now is the worst time for that. The pain in my chest kept on intensifying. I groaned in frustration, thrashing everything that stood on my table.My mind couldn't take any of this. My rough hands were tugging at my hair tightly as I shut my eyes tightly. Everything is a complete mess right now. Every second of those last hours played over and over again in my head. And I felt a constant pain in my chest. Ava was in serious trouble.Why on earth did it have to be her?The same question that had lingered in my thoughts echoed again.I would be lying if I said I didn't believe her.Hell, I believed everything she would tell me and I trusted her with my own life. But the court and the pack couldn't. Somehow they thought only the worst of her, and being the only one not linked to my pack and my curse she was an easy suspect. Ava cou
Ava's point of viewI have been in my chamber for a day now. Tasha and Josie kept updating me on everything that was happening in the court. So far, no decision has been made. That was good to know, but so far there's been no way of proving my innocence. No way at all. And as the seconds ticked by, I couldn't help getting nervous. There was a quick knock on the door, I sent my eyes up and Josie stepped in. She held an uneasy look on her face, which only scared me more. "It's time." She said, and I pulled up from the bed, flattening my dress. "Everyone has gathered at the court already."I took in sharp breaths. I have been called upon by the Pack's court for my trial. Josie told me that Kaden had insisted on it. For someone who didn't believe me, I was still grateful to him. It gave us some time to find the person who is really behind the assassination.I followed Josie out of my room to the castle court. It was full with every ranking wolf in the Midnight Pack present, every one of
Kaden's point of viewIt was already way past noon. The sun had dominated the sky already. I was seated in the large castle hall, and to my left was Cassandra, and to my right were Adrien and Lorenzo, my most trusted friends. I watched as the last ranked pack member of the court strode into the hall while more warriors gaited in in large numbers. They all had confused and questioning gazes fixed on me.As we had planned, I ordered all ranked members of the pack and every warrior in my pack, including those who were in training, to appear in the hall. Today, Ava will be judged and punished by myself and the Pack's court. Hopefully, things won't go that far though, and she will instead be free of all accusations. Kole has a plan to expose whosoever shot that arrow that threatened Cassandra's life and mine, and with the help of the blood found on Ava's dagger, we will find the culprit today.The large hall was cramped with everyone. I looked around and it seemed like everyone had gathere
Ava's Point Of View It's been a year since I've seen Kaden; he never came back for me; I stopped trying to escape after the Hunter's Moon passed. There was no reason to, the curse is unbreakable after the Hunter's Moon, Kaden is probably dead now along with the Midnight pack. I never got any news from Kole and Krys. They completely vanished without even seeking to find me.The worst part of it all is that Lucien and I mated!‘Ugh, would you please cut it out! That's not going to happen.’ I sigh at my wolf mentally.‘Understand that making up these crazy realities helps me to stay sane, alright.’ Lisa, my wolf, retorted, and I just sighed, indulging her crazy realities once more.Here we go again, it hasn't been one year at all, it has only been a day. My wolf was just making up scenarios because she's a bitch. ToThe peak of Hunter's Moon was only some hours away, so I could understand why my wolf was getting so anxious. Honestly, I was too. In some hours now, the Hunter's Moon woul
Kaden's Point Of View My growls vibrated through the earth's crust as I tore through another wolf from the elder pack, splitting him into two halves. I was covered from head to toe in blood, standing in a puddle of the blood of wolves working with Lucien and the Elders. I was going berserk without my mate, I needed to get her back or I swear I was going to fucking kill everyone breathing.I still haven't stopped thinking about her beautiful smile the night I took her to our secret garden. I would end the world just to see her smile like that again.It's been only two days since my mate was taken, but for me, it feels like an eternity being without my mate; every second without her felt like torture to my mind. Not knowing what that bastard was doing to her at this very moment kept me furibund. Saying I was going crazy was merely an understatement to describe what was happening to me. I was out of my darn mind without the little wolf. Ava's scent still lingered everywhere around me an
Ava's Point Of View I lay on the bed, not able to tell how long I was locked up in the room. It was driving me insane being locked up in here. I hated feeling like a prisoner. Oh, how I wish I was back at the pack before everything happened. I couldn't reach Kadenp through our mate bond; it was like it was gone as if there was nothing there. Something was interfering with it. Every time I reached out, all I could hear was an endless silence, but I could still feel him. I knew he was going crazy looking for me everywhere. I quickly jerk off from the bed as I hear the door knob suddenly twist. Someone was trying to come in. The doors silently push open, allowing in an unfamiliar face, holding a covered tray. "Whoa--" the stranger said, as he looked around the room with an open mouth. "This place looks nice." The stranger spoke, with an Italian accent. He placed the tray in a drawer as he carried on looking around. "And who the bloody hell are you?" I questioned, narrowing my pi
Ava's Point Of View "Kaden---" I moan a whisper, as I stirred in the bed. Beads of sweat trickled down my forehead, it was caused by the terrible dream I was having about me and Kaden being separated. It was a nightmare and once again I couldn't do anything but watch him die."No... Kaden..." I called again, feeling tears well around my eyes. A huge pain crushing me as I fight to escape the nightmare I was trapped in.I finally jolted up from the bed I laid, gasping in an ample amount of air. I paused, not able to move for a second, my eyes were stunned by the foreign environment surrounding me, I needed a minute to adjust to the environment I found myself in.'where the hell was I?' I ask myself. I couldn't remember how I got to this place that wasn't home.My hands clutch tightly to my head, as I feel a piercing ringing invade my mind. The pain came as I tried to recall what had happened before. I felt so weak, as if all my strength in me had been drained. I couldn't feel my wolf o
Kaden's Point Of View I had just left my pack and was on my way to meet Nadia, the vampire who knew Ava's mother.It was very important I saw her, she had been on the run and living in hiding for years now. She knew something important about Ava's mother and it was also important to Ava. We agreed to meet somewhere on the outskirts of the city, away from unseen eyes watching her.There was something that kept me uneasy, it was grating at the back of my mind. Ava's ominous dream was sent by my mother. My mother wasn't one to make empty threats or warnings, so there was a very high chance that something terrible was coming our way. Although that wouldn't surprise me, something terrible is always coming our way, but this time the stakes were high. The lives of my entire pack were on the line, and any small overlooked detail would be the end of us.It was still baffling to me how Mother chose to send a warning to Ava about Mr when she was the very one who cursed me with this fate. Now, s
Kole's Point Of View I was standing across from Xanthros, the elemental lycan. He was arguably one of the strongest lycans that kathryna sired. His ability to manipulate the elements of nature was rare, and it was a skill he had learned how to utilize to the fullest, but still, I knew he was no match for me."You all should have maintained the roles we allowed you as Elders, Xanthros," I said, with my voice low.Xanthros sneered, his eyes flashing with elemental energy. "Kole, you and I both know we wouldn't miss this opportunity to take out Kaden. At first, we were content with knowing Kaden wasn't able to find the gifted one, but now he has; we can't just let him break free from his curse."Of course, they wouldn't just sit idly by and let Kaden successfully break his curse; even if it meant they would charge to their deaths, they were willing to take the risk. But I was willing to do whatever it took to keep my brother safe. Yes, I know Kaden has made a lot of terrible mistakes, b
Kaiser's Point Of View I had followed the Elder, Rowan, into the thick dark woods. I knew I had him cornered, and deep down, he was terrified of the things I could do to him.I hear the loud hooting of the birds of the night; the stillness of the night sends a chill creeping up my spine. Suddenly, a dark veil lit up in the night sky, but just above the forest I was in. This was Rowan's desperate trick to keep himself alive but even this couldn't keep him alive or safe from me.“Kaiser Delacourt.” I heard his voice sound from behind me. “You and I meet again.”I roll my eyes, turning back to meet his dark eyes. His blond hair grew longer since the last time I saw him. Back then when Kaden's devil of a twin turned him and the other Elders into lycans. Somehow, they believed we were on the same level, but they were nothing but power-hungry parasites.“Oh Rowan, you picked the wrong time in the world to pick a fight with me. I won't grant you an easy death.” I grinned, my extended claws
Ava's Point Of ViewMy eyes scanned hurriedly across the meadow where I was fighting alongside Kaiser in his huge lycan form and some of our warriors, against the Elders wolves and shadow army.I tried reaching Kaden through our mate bond but I couldn't connect to him. Something was blocking our connection and mind link. The battle was getting heated as more of the Elder's rogue wolves arrived to fight against us. Deep down, I knew if we should win this battle, we would need our magic restored.I couldn't begin to describe the relief that flooded my chest as blue eyes narrowed in on Kole.He joined me and Kaiser where we stood. He was covered in blood and his eyes were glowing bright red as he was sharing partial control with his lycan wolf.We kept on with the fight, and to my surprise, the black veil that had covered the entire pack was lifted, and the night sky came into view. A small smile found my lips, as this meant the witches now had access to their magic and so did Kaiser and
Krystabelle’s Point Of ViewI was forced to step out of the pack's castle and keep watch over the pack with Kaden gone. My conversation with Ava a few hours ago left me completely worried, especially about her dreams, and that worried me more. I knew that had to be an ominous message from mother, she sent it to Ava dreams and she was expecting us to avert whatever chaos was impending.I was even more uneasy with the sudden reappearance of my brother, Kaiser. That bastard was as conniving and treacherous as they got. I didn't just believe his excuse that he came just because he was in the area and he missed home, there had to be something much more that drove him here. I know my older brother so well and I am willing to bet that he was running away, or maybe hiding from something. Whatever it truly was, I knew it couldn't be good.Kole had ordered the pack to be at alert, so everyone was on their toes, and they had the right to be, the Hunter moon was in just four days. Anything could
