Amarantha's POV"We meet again... mate..." I heard another voice speak inside my head. It felt like it came from within me.I quickly looked away and pushed Omnibus. I stood straight, clearing my throat.What dreadful chaos this was! How can I be so careless in front of him? And now, this voice inside of me started wanting me to swoon over Omnibus' presence.I shook my head violently.No. This couldn't happen. It couldn't be. Iram is my mate, not Omnibus! Get yourself up! I reminded myself. My thoughts were already ruined. I panicked. How could I ever escape this situation?I decided to walk away but just as when I was about to escape, a strong hand pulled me back.I looked up and it was him again. This time, he stared blankly. A dark aura started to surround him. This was the first time I felt scared of his presence. It was like he wasn't the same Omnibus I met before, a merrier person and warm-hearted. Right now, he became the very unpleasant werewolf that didn't like being neglecte
Amarantha's POV"Kiss me..."I must be losing my mind.Two words from my mouth but I couldn't bring myself to flinch of my own accord. Was it really me who just spoke earlier?Gosh! How do I take back my words?I blinked twice. I wanted to lower my head but my body wasn't responding to any of my commands. I just head-on meet his confused yet delighted eyes."L-Luna..."I didn't say a word and waited for him to act. We looked at each other as though it was the only thing that mattered to the both of us. Seeing his naked emotions, his desire to kiss and claim me his, and to take me far away from Iram. I felt those one heartbeat away.And as though I thought he wouldn't defy his duty, I was wrong. He indulged my invitation and started to own my lips.It was a deep and hungry kiss. A kiss of longingness, thirst, respect, and compassion. That went on for several moments, feeling his softness kneading mine. It was warm, knee-jerking, and powerful. I once knew his subdued emotions, his exces
Amarantha's POVI started walking in a zigzag motion. Heavy breathing. Blurry vision.I felt like my head was lighter than usual. The place felt like a small box. I started to feel like the spaces were closing in on me.I purred and purred in pain and desperation.Should I just take Omnibus' offer? Was it all worth it to go that far just to save myself from something bad that was about to happen?And what about Iram? After I escape, how would he hold up? Would he just let me go? Or would he take all necessary measures to find me even though I wasn't worth it?My mind was a complete mess. After Iñigo told me those things, I was in a disaster on my own. I just found myself walking down the capital and found the same place I used to hide from Omnibus.When I settled on a cemented path, I whimpered loudly. I feared for my life. That's the truth.I feared that someday I would be the cause of anyone's trouble. To their heartaches. And now that it had happened, I didn't know what to do. My m
Amarantha's POVAs I was struggling to breathe, the familiar smirk inside the cellar caught my attention.As our eyes met, the strangle began to loosen. Slowly, the grip on my neck entirely let go of me.I coughed hard and tried to catch my breath. I held my neck and slowly looked up.I knew it. It was that same woman I saw when Iram and Omnibus returned. The she-wolf who was chained.She stuck her arm out of the rectangle hole. I heard her psst at me.I just looked at her and never said a word though I wanted to growl at her. She just almost killed me! I was just trying to control my temper."Oy!" she shouted once more. "Are you the Luna here?"I narrowed my eyes. "How did you know that?"She shrugged and gave me an uninterested gesture. "It's easy to guess. You're energy?"I didn't respond but became a little amused. It's a bit surprising that werewolves know at first impression the ranks and titles of each pack member. They must be living their lives so easily."And I know you're h
Amarantha's POV All I did was to cry all night inside my chamber. I didn't have any power to stop Iram at all. He already removed all the chambermaids assigned to me.My rage began to boil inside of me. I couldn't sleep.Shintara was right. I was just wasting my selfless state to someone who didn't cherish me at all.I am his mate! He should have protected me. He should have believed me! But he chose to feign ignorance.Suddenly, a knock on my door caught my attention. I stopped sobbing for a second and then walked toward the door.When I opened it, I saw Omnibus. His eyes were filled with fear and worries. They were welling up in tears."O-Omni?"Without a word, Omnibus suddenly widened the door. He launched toward me and hugged me.I was caught off-guard. I didn't know what to do. I stood there frozen.I could feel his heavy breathing. His chest moved up and down. His embrace got tighter and tighter."I'm so sorry. If I knew what happened, I should've—""You shouldn't be here, Omni
Shintara's POV I smirked after seeing the human luna away from my cellar.Pathetic fool.She still didn't know who she was in the first place. If she knew what she was capable of, everyone in this pack would run away in fear for their lives.It amused me to know that one of my kind found me with just an instinct. I've longed enough to wait for this day to finally meet someone of the same kind.When I touched Amarantha, I knew that her wolf has already been awakened. I could feel it. It wasn't the same excitement I felt when I first met my mate, Omnibus, whom I rejected, but a different kind of excitement. Something between home and family bond. It was that kind of notion.But Amarantha seemed to be too stupendous. She still didn't want to believe anything that she was seeing.I grimaced. I was once that kind of she-wolf before. The only difference was that I knew I was born a werewolf...I started to know my condition when I discovered my wolf on my 15th birthday. That was also the da
Iñigo's POV I slammed my fists after hearing something ridiculous."What did you say?!" I asked in disbelief. Fuming in madness while flaring my nose in front of my most trusted soldier."B-Beta. It is the truth!" Henry replied. "She has returned to the castle. Inside the dungeon where some of the prisoners from Scottland were, she was put through the Alpha King's order.I scoffed and ground my teeth in annoyance. "What's gotten into the Alpha King's head and he held capture that freak?""Beta, what shall we do?"I stood up and returned my gaze to him. "I'll make sure she's punished for escaping Prima Tierra!" I stomped my feet as I declared those words. I called some of my soldiers and ordered them to accompany me.I took a familiar route with a smug look on my face."Better get ready to taste my revenge!"We reached the dungeon that Henry had spoken about. I entered the passageway and relied on my heightened smell. I sniffed through the air and easily stopped at the last door insid
Shintara's POV "Wait for me, Shin. I will come for you..." I finally heard that voice.I couldn't stop myself from smiling inside my cellar. After 2 days of wasting my time inside this dungeon, I realized until now that I still need to escape this place.After watching Lorna bleed to death, I couldn't move. I stopped my utmost desire to fight back. That was why it was so easy for that Alpha King to seize me along with Omnibus.They put wolfsbane on the special cuffs they made for me. I just hoped they added the highest volume so that I could die immediately. I didn't have to go through such a trial knowing that I was only living on my own without my family. But unfortunately, I was still alive and seeing the little sunshine from the little peephole on the wall. I could see the soldiers and civilians walking to and fro the wall where I could see them in the background.This was all before I finally saw her face to face. The first time I caught a glimpse of her was when I entered the c
