KILLIAN’S POVEven if the effects of the coffee had worn out, the content of the first document from Uncle Paul’s classified file holder wouldn’t let me sleep off. It was too engrossing to find out truths that agreed with something you’ve always suspected to be true.It seemed Uncle Paul had specially written that document for me. Thank goodness I had found the document at this time that the Congress wanted me to join them.So many things in the document were in accord with the suspicions I had about the Congress. Some of them were even deeper truths than I had expected. There were so many dark truths about the Congress— truths that’d turn the whole supernatural world against them if found out. One thing which I had suspected had proved to be true— that the man-eating werewolf which had attacked Erika in her room was from the Congress. It was an experiment of their creation that was intended to be able to defeat Alphas.“I knew it!” I said with a jerk of my folded fist.But the docume
KILLIAN'S POV Immediately I reached the top of the third hill which was relatively bigger than the other three, I sighed the Tijidan River. A bold smile covered my face and I felt so relieved. Finally, I'd get to meet the mage. The river sparkled from the distance, reflecting the brightness of the sun on its surface.It was just about thirty minutes walk from the last hill to the river. When I got there, I couldn't help but admire it more as I had gotten a very close view of it. I scouted the area for the part of the bank where the mage lived. There was a part of the riverbank where bamboo shrubs grew largely and a variety of birds flocked together there. Peeping carefully from afar, I noticed that there was a building hidden within the bamboo shrubs. That must be it. That must be the riverbank Mage's house. There was no time to waste. Quickly, I rushed over to the other side, and as soon as I got near enough to get a more convincing view of the area, the birds took flight, exposing
ERIKA'S POVThe day was almost gone. No one had seen or heard anything about Killian. No one knew where he had gone or when he had left the pack. My eyes were brimming with tears and my heart racing fast. Should anything bad happen to him, what would I do? And I had been having some bad dreams lately. Hope none of them was about to come true.I had walked to the bar to check him, to his uncle's house, to the two temples, and even to training, but I found no trace of him. All the guards were strong on their statement that he had not left through any of the gates."Erika, take it easy. I know Killian. Maybe something urgent has come up and he needs to deal with it before it can affect us," Ciro said to me."He has never left the pack like this; not for a single day. I'm pretty sure something has gone wrong," I cried."No. Don't say that. All we have to do now is to be tighter with our security until he returns," Ciro said to me, "if the enemies know that he's away now, they may strike."
KILLIAN'S POV"He's opening his eyes!" My eyes faintly picked up a voice shouting in excitement."Really? Finally! Let me see!"My lids felt heavy as I tried to lift them. But then I opened them finally and my eyes widened in surprise. I couldn't believe what my eyes were seeing. In fact, it wasn't possible at all... Unless I was dead.I was inside a big bubble deep inside the ocean. Beautiful fishes swarm over the bubble, and some strange creatures gathered all around, peeking at me with curiosity.I lay on a bed of tiny bubbles within the big one. And when I turned my head around, my face clashed with that of a beautiful mermaid."Hi!" She waved at me.I sat up immediately. "Where am I?" I asked. Then glancing at her wrist, I saw a green bangle. It looked exactly like the one I had seen on the hand that pulled me into the river."Who are you?" I asked her.She waved her tail at me."I'm a mermaid," she said. She spoke in a light and hearty tone and I could tell she was still a tee
KILLIAN'S POVThe bottom of the ocean was more beautiful than what I had heard in the stories. It was said to be filled with darkness and scary creatures who could see you but you couldn't see them. But now before my eyes, all I saw was a beautiful landscape with varieties of creatures glowing brightly as they swam around.The mermaid swam beside my bubble as the turtle slowly swam."How far is the queen's castle?" I inquired, "And when will this turtle begin to move fast?""Haha," she laughed, "That's how the turtle has always moved. But it is guaranteed to get you to your destination. It doesn't get attacked by any creature living in the ocean.""Really?" I asked her."Yes. Because it is the oldest creature in the ocean. It served the once powerful ocean king," she answered me."Wow," I said. Then I thought to myself, if what she said was true, then being able to command a creature that was respected by every other creature in the ocean, would mean she is a formidable person."Are y
KILLIAN'S POV"Many of your kind have come, but none has ever exhumed the aura I sense from you. What makes you so special, Alpha Killian?" She said, inhaling the scent of my body.I forced my lips to speak."There's a lot going on in this supernatural world," I said. But she interrupted before I could say anything further."The Congress” I know. But what makes you special, I do not know. I'll be working with you in order to bring the Congress down, so I should know every single thing about you," she said.From behind me, she trailed her arms to slip into my shirt and grab my chest.I caught her arms immediately."Enough of the introduction," I said.She came to my face immediately, gazing straight into my eyes.That was when her true beauty was revealed to me. She was, in fact, ten times more beautiful than the mermaid that had brought me to her."I'm the queen," she said, "I decide when the introduction is enough.""I do not have time to spend here for frivolities," I said, "let's g
KILLIAN'S POVWe both stood before the couch, studying each other's naked bodies. Her chest heaved up and down nervously, and I noticed some hesitance from her."Let's do this," I said to her.There was no time going back on the only means through which we could bring down the evil Congress.Slowly, she walked up to me and I pulled her into a hug, her bare body pressing against mine.I ran my finger over her face, packing some stray strands of hair behind. There was no obstruction on her face now, so I lit her lips up with a kiss. Vehemently, she engulfed my own lips as she kissed back. My arms went around her waist and I cupped the full globes of her ass as we kissed.The next minute, we were both on the floor, still kissing and groping each other. As I squeezed the soft mounds of her boobs, her palm found its way to my erection, shoving up and down on it.The sensual aura from her body messed with my head as she squirmed about while I kissed her in the right places. My hands patted
ERIKA’S POVIt was now obvious to everyone in the pack that our Alpha had gone missing, a huge drop in our battle force. Bothered that the pregnant women and other vulnerable members of the pack could not be assured of maximum safety, panic rose among the pack.Ciro, the Elders, and I had tried our best to make everyone understand that we could still defend the pack, but no one bought that. For the past few days, security had become a thing of stringency. No one slept at night, not even I. Even when Ciro tried convincing me to sleep, I just couldn’t.A week passed, and the Elder wolves called a meeting. I attended the meeting with Ciro and Trevor by my side. Elder Rayden, the youngest among the Elders was the chief speaker in the meeting. He was only about twenty years older than Killian. In fact, judging from his great physique, no one would expect him to be an Elder, but he had once been a Beta to one of our Alpha, so the position was not denied him. Elder wolves were pack members w
ERIKA'S POV"This is the last baby, Luna Erika! Push!""Push!" "Push!"I swallowed hard and bit back tears as the nurses encouraged me to push out my last baby. I could feel my whole body getting numb already.Childbirth was really painful. I was still hurting from the expansion of my uterus during the first push. But there was still one more to go.However, the majority of my pain came from the things I sensed happening outside."Concentrate on pushing!" The doctor tapped me when he noticed my senses were detecting things happening outside.Soon, the head of the last baby had come out and the doctor was gently pulling him out."Yes! Almost there!" He shouted, "Keep going! Keep going!"A loud cry left my mouth and I squeezed every last ounce of strength in me and pushed out my last baby."Yay!" The doctor cried.The whole hospital became a parade of joy amidst the battle going on. I fell back on the pillow and listlessly watched everyone as they cheered and danced. I thought I'd hav
KILLIAN'S POVThe Sloane before my eyes was nothing like the Sloane I knew. Even my wolf, Alek, could sense it."This is a bad idea, Killian," my wolf growled.But that wasn't the point where I'd care about it being a bad idea or not. I'd sworn on my life that not a single pregnant lady would get harmed. It didn't matter if the rest of us would die."I'd advise you shift immediately because you won't be able to scratch me with your human form," Sloane said to me.I smirked nervously."Don't get cocky! Sloane!" I yelled, rushing at him in my human form.I leapt into the air and came at him with a heavy punch. But the moment I swung my punch, Sloane had vanished from where he stood.My eyes widened in shock."Killian, behind you!" Ciro shouted.I turned around in midair and Sloane was coming at me. Quickly, I ducked left and barely managed to dodge his punch. But he grazed my cheek before I could completely dodge."Focus on your battle, Ciro!" I roared at him, "I'll send this bastard ba
ERIKA'S POVThree months had passed after the battle with Aldres. The petition had been filed against the Congress and presented before every region of the supernatural world. Thus, the Congress became careful with their actions.The barrier had remained on since that day I set it up. It constantly drained my energy, but I barely got engaged in activities, so I didn't worry about it.Killian brought my food to the bed. He'd take me to the bathroom whenever I needed to use it. Whether I wanted to bathe or poop, he'd assist me.The doctor visited more frequently than usual. All the pregnant women were almost due. We had less than two weeks to give birth. But some of us had gone into labour already. More doctors were brought from But for the past three weeks, there had been news of constant killing and kidnapping in the supernatural world. Due to that, and added to the fact that my pregnancy was almost due, Killian stayed back in the pack more often than usual. He postponed every meetin
KILLIAN’S POV“Don’t tell me you’re so weak, Alpha Killian. What was all that hype from the Congress about you? Look whom they told me to be careful while fighting,” Aldres spat. I could barely see with my eyes as I lay on the warm floor after receiving countless blows from the vampire.“Stand up,” he said to me, “stand up and fight! I want to give you an honorable end!”I staggered up and spat blood out of my mouth. My spine had shifted when Aldres dropped me from the sky, but I was able to squeeze it back in form when he was punching me on the floor.I took in a deep breath and closed my eyes shut, concentrating blood on the nerves of my ears, making my hearing ten times sharper. I needed to last longer in this battle so as to buy the pack enough time to escape.With my sense super-heightened now, I suddenly sense Erika in the house. What was she doing there? But my panic eased a bit when I sensed Trevor’s presence there as well. Whatever they were doing there, they needed to be fa
ERIKA’S POVThe battle between Killian and the Vampire Lord had begun after Killian saved Edward from his head being blasted away by the vampire Lord. The vampire looked like he was still in shape like it had taken him nothing to beat Edward Blue and Black.In the first few seconds of their battle, they were evenly matched. Killian was even able to land two blows on the vampire lord.“Your moves aren’t as fast as they should. What’s wrong?” Killian asked him after landing the second blow.“Who’s going to go down first?” Lord Aldres said to him with a smile.Killian shook his head, “I overestimated you vampires.”With that, he launched himself at the vampire lord with full force and landed him with a kick. But Aldres was able to catch that kick with his arms.“Not quite heavy,” he smirked.Wing emerged from his back immediately and he flew into the air dragging Killian by the legs. Ascending to a very high altitude, he let go of Killian, and Killian came falling from the sky.Aldrs had
KILLIAN'S POVAfter making out with Erika, I slept soundly that night. But when I woke up the next morning, I had a whim that something was not right. The soldiers who had been on watch the previous night hadn't alerted me of any enemy presence. But inwardly, I kept feeling like the enemy had already come.I stood up from the bed and walked to the wardrobe, pulling out a black shirt and black trousers. I looked back at the bed, Erika was still fast asleep. Dressed up, I gently opened the room door and sneaked out of the room. My plan was to go to the outskirts of the pack and wait there for the Vampire Lord's arrival. If the battle commenced there, that'd give my pack enough time to make the escape preparations. However, when I stepped outside of the house, I sensed someone's pain come over and over again. It suddenly flashed through my mind that the pain I sensed was Edward's. It was then that I realized that the Vampire Lord had already arrived and Edward was doing the exact same
ERIKA'S POVThe next day was going to be the day that the Vampire Lord would come to battle Killian. The Elders knew nothing about this. Killian had found it difficult to rest throughout the day.In the evening, Killian went to the bar and kept drinking until I sent a servant to tell him that I needed his attention at home.He came back home, half drunk, his hair messy and his mouth reeking of liquor as he spoke."What are you doing, drinking when there's a battle to face tomorrow?" I asked him, "Is that what we should be doing by now?""Is it wrong to drink my last wine?" Killian countered my question with his own."Not actually. But you're overdoing it. What if the enemy shows up before then?" I asked worriedly."Aldres is a man of his words. He won't even come close to the perimeters of this area until tomorrow," Killian said, sounding so sure of someone whom h barely knew anything about."Please, there are better things we could do now," I beckoned on him."Like what? Pray to the
ERIKA'S POVThat night, Amiel visited me in my dream. She summoned me to the top of a rocky hill that had water running out from every rock on it. We sat on two rocks, discussing, while water rushed below our feet. The sound of the running water became somewhat of a distraction. Amiel waved her palm over the water and every drop froze where they were. Even the tiniest drops in the air froze and hung there."Wow," I gasped softly, "you're amazing.""Thank you," she said with a chivalrous smile."So, what happened with the mermaid queen?" I asked her.She giggled softly, "We no longer fought.""Ah... Why?""She submitted. We were two and she was all alone," Amiel said."I heard the mermaid queen is very powerful. I heard she controls the whole ocean," I said to Amiel."No. She's not that powerful. She doesn't even rule the whole ocean," Amiel said. "There are other beings in the water whom she is terrified of. And that's why she seeks more power.""Hmm... Really," I said. "So, would yo
KILLIAN'S POV I took to my feet immediately, rushing back to the house. I only knew little about pregnancy, but I had kept an accurate record of how long she had been pregnant. It was just six months. Was it normal for the baby in the womb to start moving? I couldn't tell for sure. But her voice seemed disturbed.When I got to the house, I barged into the room to see Erika's belly bulging up and down."What is this?" I gasped.It looked so outrageous like the baby was kicking her from inside. But what was more outrageous was that Erika wasn't feeling any pain from that."He's talking, but I can't hear him," Erika said to me. How did she know it was a "he"?"I think his Father will be the one to understand him," she said to me.Curiously, I walked closer to the bed and placed my ear on Erika's belly listening."Father, you're in danger!" A shriek flew into my ears.I shuddered back immediately, falling on the floor. That was when the kick suddenly quieted down."What happened?" Erika
