ERIKA’S POV Ciro's car was packed in front of Miss Loy's house by 9 am the next morning. Miss Loy called me to come downstairs with my bags. "Hope she doesn't have many loads," I heard Ciro say to her. "It's only a matter of one week before she returns." I was just by the door when I heard him. Immediately, I scurried back to my room with my two heavy bags, unpacking all the unnecessary loads. I removed the two sneakers I had stuffed into the bag, my big hoodie which I had a spare of it in the pack, and two jean trousers. My load was lighter now, and everything managed to fit into one bag. "How long are you gonna stay?" Stacey whispered to me. She was coming out of her room when she met me leaving. "I'm guessing, a week," I told her. "Alright. Be safe out there," she hugged me. "Thanks, Stacey." I pulled the door open and walked outside with my bag. "Hey, queen!" Ciro called. "Ciro!" I smiled, rushing to greet him with a hug. He patted me on the back. "You know I should
KILLIAN'S POV I knocked on her door. My ears could pick up her soft snore as she slept. But the doors weren't locked— her doors never were. It had been about four hours since she had returned from the human world. But I had been busy carefully editing a lot of mails I wrote, before actually sending them out. But it seemed her wolf, Veletta heard my knock and then woke her. As she was awake, I didn't need her to get the door for me. I was just being cautious of walking in on her naked. I pushed the door slightly and she pulled a blanket over her chest before I could step a foot in. "Hi!" She muttered, rubbing her eyelids with the bunch of her palm. "Welcome," I said as I gently sat beside her. "Have you eaten, yet?" "No," she yawned. "I thought it'd be better to get a good nap first." I reached Lerah through the mind link and ordered her to come upstairs with something warm for Erika to eat. I bent my face closer to Erika and observed her chin. Her cheeks had grown a bit fatter
ERIKA'S POV The day of the ball... "Girl you look astonishing in this dress. Alpha Killian should've just let you wear it," Sandra said to me. "I know," I sighed as I stood in the mirror while she helped me comb my hair from behind. "So, what's your other choice of dress?" She asked me. "Check in the wardrobe there. There's a grey suit and a pink shirt," I said. "Luke's girls brought it over last night." She tied up my hair first, before going to check out the dress I was talking about. O continued with the rest of my make-up, carefully applying a black eyeliner along my lashline. "Oh dang. This isn't bad as such, but I prefer the one you're wearing already," Sandra confessed. "I know right? But let me get changing into that one immediately. Killian spoke about the driver coming in an hour," I said. "Okay," she sighed. I was about to remove the top of my dress when Killian came rushing into the room wearing the dress I had made for him. "Erika, change into—" he was about to
KILLIAN'S POV The host for the annual ball was a witch clan led by Azrael, the mother witch of that clan. Everything had been organized, from the decorations, down to the events and seat organizations. Azrael herself ushered us in as we matched in pairs. She was in our age group and was currently the youngest mother witch in the supernatural world. Six years ago, she had played a very big role in a battle the supernatural world faced against demons. Since then, she had gained recognition and eventually became a clan leader. The receptionist took us to our reserved seats and I sat with Erika beside me. After an opening speech had been made by the oldest creature in the supernatural world, Zak the orc emperor, a party soon began. The party zone was separate from the meeting zone of the hall. Everyone moved over to the party zone where a dance rhythm had already begun. Erika had already begun nodding her head when we were just by the door to the party zone. "Do you like dancing?" I
ERIKA'S POV Looking into Sloane's eyes made some memories rush through me. I could swear it felt like I had met him somewhere before. But while my wolf growled offensively, I felt like coming close to him. He had walked in looking so calm and gentle and had only offered to dance with me, which had been going well until Killian came and punched him. I couldn't understand why Killian had picked a fight with such a gentle person. Killian was outside, by the balcony, his friends consoling him. I boiled with curiosity to know what problem he had with Sloane. Or was it jealousy that another man had danced with me? Putting his arms around my waist wasn't a big deal to me. I wondered, could it just be territoriality? I left the dance floor where I had now lost my interest in the charming rhythm that had been playing. "Could you excuse us, please?" I summoned the courage to speak to the alphas who surrounded him. "Oh, his lover is here," Marius said, "let's leave them some space." Immed
ERIKA'S POV Dawn unveiled the sky from the dark blankets of the night. A golden flood of light poured into the room immediately I pulled the window blinds open. I stretched up my bed and immediately began doing some squats. I did about fifteen cause it had become one of my favorite workouts after I had heard it helped with defining the curves and bulking up the ass. I wore my tracksuit and sneakers and jogged around the pack. The scouts were already awake and on the lookout. Sometimes I doubted if they ever slept. I was back from jogging within thirty minutes. Halfway through the stairs, as I matched back up to my room to take a shower, I heard Lerah whistling in the kitchen. I turned around and went to meet her. "Good morning, Erika," she greeted. I smiled, "morning Lerah. Urm, could you please leave the rest of today's meal to me? You can handle breakfast. I'll take care of lunch and dinner." "Hmm... Is there anything special you want to make?" She asked. But her voice sounde
ERIKA'S POV The harvesting season had begun. But out of several pieces of land that belonged to our pack, we only harvested from the few nearby ones. The food supply was diminishing. The supplies in the stores were carefully measured each day. That morning, breakfast was two thin slices of bread with some jam spread over them, served with some boiled milk. I knew better than to engage myself in any energy-draining task. But, I became worried when I went over to Sandra's place and saw her forfeit her breakfast for her elder sister. "What will you eat now?" I whispered to her. "I can go over to Ciro's place to eat. He warned me about this hunger strike beforehand," she said. "Oh. That's so thoughtful of him," I said. "But the ration shared is even too little. Won't we all starve before this is over?" "Or maybe we'll go over to feeding on grasses," she jested. I chuckled halfheartedly. Worried about the sudden development which I had seen no signs of its approachment when I had
KILLIAN'S POV Erika and I had cuddled up in bed right after we had both met intense orgasms. She had licked off all the cum dripping from my dick. And when she noticed there was still some more, she turned around and licked everything up before turning back to fall into my arms. She breathed out, licking her lips in one seductive motion. "That was yum," she uttered. I played with her soft brunette curls and kissed her fondly on the chest as we laid face-to-face on the bed. "Whenever we do this again, I want you to be rough on me just like you did on this one," she whispered. I wasn't surprised that she fancied having rough sex. I felt embarrassed but hid it. Ciro had told me a lot of times that women liked it when you went rough with them, and I had been noticing it. But that wasn't any reason to bring back the side of me that used to scare Erika. "I can only promise to fuck you with more passion," I whispered. "I accept," a beautiful smile curved up her lips. It was getting
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
