Seeing this two together was somehow strange to Eleanor. Merit and Benjamin were a pair she never thought she'd witness. They kept their voices so low she couldn't comprehend what they talked about, and when they finally noticed her presence, Benjamin smiled considerably, twisting in her direction to give her a good picture of his muscular physique.

Then he took slow steps to where she stood. "There you are."

Eleanor returned his smile with a confused frown. "What are you two doing out in the dark?"

"I was just asking Merit here your whereabouts. I couldn't find you anywhere around." He turned to Merit who was surprisingly quiet. So unlike her. "Isn't that right?"

They shared a look and Eleanor felt like she was missing out on something. "He's right." The other bit out with a faux smile.

"I spend most of my time these days studying for the exams that it's hard to get a hold of me," Eleanor admitted, not taking the matter seriously.

"And how's that going?" Benjamin asked as he walked

    The more days that passed brought Drakken nothing but strife and agitation. He'd been watching Eleanor and his brother gallivant around the palace like lovebirds and he couldn't do anything about it. Drakken was mad at himself. Even his wolf had retreated and remained dormant.He watched Benjamin escort Eleanor to the palace after work through his study window every other night. She always looked happy talking to him and laughed often, more than she had ever done with Drakken. It never failed to make his stomach churn with jealousy.He'd made a fool of himself. Fighting his brother over Eleanor would make him look even more stupid. She was clearly mad at him, and getting closer to Benjamin was a bigger torment than ignoring him. But Eleanor did both.He had recently visited Emma as an excuse to go to the clinic, hoping to run into Eleanor there. Again, Benjamin was there with her. He was always there, tutoring her about flower potions and what they cured. Apparently, there was an exam

    Eleanor got ready for another tutoring session with Benjamin that evening and hurriedly rushed out of her room. She was running late. He'd kept his promises when he offered to teach her all he knew about medicines, going out of his way to see to it that she understood everything he taught.She couldn't thank him enough for his kindness. Eleanor was finally making an increasing amount of progress with Emma's flower healing methods. She had not put what she'd learned to practice yet and that was to be the main focus for the day.It was what she looked forward to since she began taking lessons from Benjamin. To put her abilities to the test.Eleanor had almost gotten to the clinic where she kept Benjamin waiting when she heard a familiar voice call out to her. Halting in her tracks, she spun around and saw Gregory sprinting toward her.His face which was filled with worry created concerns for Eleanor. Gregory wasn't his usual merry self.He took a minute to catch his breath after running

    Drakken stirred awake the next morning to the bright sunlight peeking out behind his curtains. He felt something wet on his forehead and picked it up, tossing away the wet towel.His head was light and dizzy when he tried to move and look around, so Drakken let it drop back to the pillow. It all started as a common hangover at first before it escalated into something out of his control.Drakken had spent too many nights drinking to avoid his problems and it backfired.It was after he regained full consciousness of himself and the surroundings that Drakken heard light snores coming very close to him. His eyes trailed down to his body, shocked to see Eleanor lying across his chest so comfortably in a deep sleep.Her lips were ajar as snores continued to escape from them, her eyebrows slightly drawn together. Drakken found her stunning even in that state and couldn't quite take his eyes off her.Days ago, he would've done anything to have Eleanor this close to him, now she was there on a

    Eleanor resumed work at the clinic in a much better mood, smiling to herself all through the time. Hanging out with Benjamin over the past few days did nothing to fill the void in her chest even if he had been great to her.It just did not feel the same without Drakken. He had asked her to return tonight. Eleanor could hardly wait until work was over so she could be with him again. She missed him greatly. She kept glancing at the time in the middle of work, counting the hours whenwe would go back to the house to meet with him as he had promises. Time seemed to be moving too slowly.She was supposed to be in control, especially after that kiss she caught him having the vampire princess. She can't comprehend why she can't stick to all her resolutions when it came to the furry man called Drakken. Especially after seeing himself sick like that last night. So vulnerable than she has ever seen him. She was still anticipating the day to come to an end, when in the middle of her shift, one

    The incident back at the hospital ward replayed in Eleanor's head at every point of the day. It still left her disturbed despite Emma's reassurance. She was very wary of everyone. Most especially Gwendolyn or anyone who could be a vampire.It was all in her head. She hasn't felt this threatened by the other creature up until that day. So, you could understand her fears. She understood now why Drakken kept her a secret. The supernatural beings were just as they envisioned them in the human world. Wild and cannibalistic. Killing was nothing to them. It was in their nature to hunt, kill and destroyed whatever they felt threatened by. It wasn't their nature to reason or be logical when they felt something to someone a hindrance or an impediment. Eleanor stopped by the gardens to get more flowers. She had not come across Benjamin yet to explain the reason for her disappearance last night. What would he say if he found out she ditched her tutorial for Drakken? He would criticize her and

    Sometime in the middle of the night, Eleanor woke up to feel Drakken's hand on her breast, caressing her. Caught in that dreamy place between being asleep and awake. She gave herself to him, enjoying his lovemaking as much. And when both were tired from their passion, he pulled her into his arms and she slept, her head pillowed on his hard, broad chest. Eleanor was disappointed in the morning when she awoke and found Drakken gone. A slight sting in her neck came and went but she did not want to pay it much attention. It reminded her of their shared passion last night. She smiled. Meanwhile, Drakken felt like his former self again after last night with Eleanor. But there was just one problem. He had lost his control and went to mark her. He did not mean to mark her. Drakken had been so caught in the moment that he acted on impulse and made a terrible mistake. Which was why he called George and Duncan into his study that morning to talk to them about it. Maybe they would know what t

    Eleanor could not help but notice Benjamin acting strange during the practice. He hardly even tried to make conversation like he always did, hardly responding to her too whenever she tried to talk to him.Was he mad at her? But why?She tried to retrace what she did wrong to result in him acting that way towards her but Eleanor could not find out what it was. Strange as it sounded, she was beginning to like their friendship and his company. He had been there for her since day one with utmost persistence.She decided to quench her curiosity and approached him. “Hey." Benjamin twisted to her upon hearing her voice beside him. "Is everything okay? You have been acting weird.""It is nothing." But everything in his features said otherwise, from the frown lines on his forehead to the glances he threw at her neck area from time to time.She had caught him before focused on it one too many times but did not care to ask. Why could he not speak up if there was a problem?Perhaps, it's the hic

    Emma still was not at the lab when Eleanor returned to pick up her potion. She needed it to help the Queen and had planned to ask Emma for an extension on the assignment to make another one.When Eleanor waited for a few minutes for Emma to arrive and she did not, she took out her potion and headed back to the Queen's room.She gently nudged the door and strode into the big room.Bettie dropped the book she had held over her face. "I did not expect you to be back so early.""Yes, I know. But I could not stop thinking about your illness," Eleanor admitted, looking down at the bottle in her hands. "I have been working on something at the clinic that might help.""Really? What is that?""A Hibiscus potion. It is not a remedy. It would only reduce any discomfort you feel." Eleanor braced her up on the bed and screwed open the bottle. "You only need to take a little. Then you would be fine."It smelled a lot different than the potions Bettie was used to. A harsher kind of aroma pricked at

    EPILOGUE"Magdalene, come here this minute!" Eleanor screamed at the top of her lungs as she chased after her last child who seemed unaware of her mother's rage she giggled heartily, racing down the well-trimmed meadow at the back of the house where they went out to relax every day. "Magdalene!""Daddy!" The girl squealed, changing course from her favourite hiding spot at the back of a tall tree, towards her father who was smiling as he stretched his hand to catch her. "I am going to make sure you are sent off to a boarding school just like your older brother!" Threatened, Eleanor, tapping her forehead. She had been chasing the little foot from the house, refusing the help of the guards whom she knew her daughter feared greatly. Drakken had insisted his daughter was never to be left at the mercy of the brutes under any circumstances."Forgive us, Luna, we have sinned." Drakken made a face as they approached her, rephrasing the biblical words. "You spoil her, baby and then you leave

    ONE MONTH LATER."I can't believe this is finally happening, dudes. Can y'all believe it?" George asked as he took a long swig from the glass in his hand, his face squeezing from the strong taste of the brown modern ale. "I can't believe it too," Duncan let out cheerily, his face a mask of smile. "So... I thought to ask Evie out today.""What!" George thundered, half sitting up from his seat in astonishment as his eyes widened in shock. "Eleanor's maid?" Duncan was nodding his head, his smile not breaking. "I haven't approached her yet, but I have been keeping tabs on her and know her real mate rejected her which somehow works to my advantage, you know.""What about your mate?"Duncan shrugged casually. "I have been crushing on Evie for as long as I can remember, Geroge. I am telling her tonight. If there's anything I'm certain of, is that I see the way she looks at me sometimes in a sneaky way.""That didn't answer my question, Duncan. Do you want to break her heart in the future?

    Drakken threw himself at Benjamin at his words, already deciding within himself that if Benjamin wanted the throne then he had to win him for it. But one thing was for sure; he was done tolerating the bullshit called his stepbrother. As the situation was right now, someone's head had to roll for peace to reign.He delivered a clean punch to his guts and Benjamin toppled over, spewing out blood. When Drakken went to punch once more, Benjamin was very fast to move away, giving Drakkn a kick to the face. George rushed to carry Eleanor from the ground, getting Benjamin's attention who was on the verge of attacking Drakken and Drakken used the opportunity to clasp his big hands around his shoulders and crushed it over his knees. There was a painful growl and Benjamin started transforming into his hideous wolf.This was part of the reason Drakken had never been comfortable around Benjamin. When he was born, he overheard his father telling Benjamins's mother that he was never going to accep

    Eleanor’s hands shook uncontrollably as tears streamed down her face. The world had stopped making sense to her. How could she have been so blind to the truth? The man she had trusted with her heart and her secrets had been the one responsible for the greatest tragedy of her life.She remembered the day when her family was murdered, the horror and pain etched into her memory forever. It had been Drakken who murdered them. And to think, she had trusted him all this time.But that wasn't the worst of it. The spy had gone ahead to reveal the thing that made Eleanor's heart sink to her stomach. Drakken was the one who had violated her, stolen her innocence and left her with scars that would never heal. And Nicky, the boy she had grown to love as her own, was the product of that brutal assault.Eleanor felt like her whole world was crumbling around her. She had lost everything, her family, her dignity, and her love. How could she face Nicky now? How could she tell him that the man he was s

    Drakken charged through the palace, his eyes scanning every corner and room for any sign of Eleanor. His mind was in turmoil, his thoughts consumed by the fear that something terrible had happened to her. He could feel his wolf inside him, agitated and restless, struggling to break free in his anger.Every room he searched, every door he opened, brought him no closer to finding her."Drakken, you need to calm down," George said as he approached him. "Destroying the palace won't help us find Eleanor.""I can't just sit here and do nothing!" Drakken snapped, his voice rising in frustration. "Eleanor is out there somewhere, and make sure she is safe."Duncan stepped forward and placed a hand on Drakken's shoulder. "We understand how you feel, but we need to approach this logically. We'll cover more ground if we split up and search different areas of the palace."He took a deep breath and tried to reign in his anger, but it wasn't easy.Just then, Emma appeared at the end of the hall. She

    Merit’s hands closed around a heavy object when Benjamin turned back to Eleanor. Before she could even raise the object to strike, Benjamin lunged at her with incredible speed. Merit tried to dodge, but he was too fast. He caught her by the throat and lifted her off the ground, squeezing with all his strength.Merit gasped for air as she struggled to break free, but Benjamin's grip was too strong. She could feel her vision starting to fade as the world around her turned black.Suddenly, Benjamin was thrown back by a force. Merit crashed to the ground, gasping for breath as she tried to regain her bearings. When she looked up, she saw that Eleanor had somehow managed to break free from her restraints.Eleanor was wielding a chair, her hands still bound tightly to it as she swung it at Benjamin. Merit watched in horror as Benjamin dodged the blow, and the chair hit her instead.Merit's head spun as she tried to shake off the blow. She could feel the blood rushing to her head as she stru

    Eleanor slowly opened her eyes, her head throbbing with a dull ache. She blinked a few times, trying to adjust to the darkness that surrounded her. Panic rose within her as she realized that she had no memory of how she ended up here.As she tried to get up, she felt a sharp pain in her ankle and winced. Her heart was pounding now as she looked around the room, hoping to find some clue as to where she was. But the room was empty, except for a single chair in the corner.She tried to shout for help, but her voice was hoarse and barely audible. Suddenly, the lights came on, and she squinted, trying to adjust to the sudden brightness.To her horror, she saw two figures standing in front of her, smirking evilly. It was Merit and Benjamin.She attempted to get up, but her ankle throbbed with pain, and she collapsed back onto the ground."Merit!” She said in shock from seeing her. “What the hell is going on?" Eleanor demanded, her voice strained.Merit stepped forward and delivered a hot sl

    Drakken sighed heavily as he stood up from his desk, shuffling papers into neat piles before grabbing his black leather jacket from the back of his chair. He had been looking forward to this meeting for days, hoping to persuade the Vampire King to leave the palace and take his daughter with him. He was also about to send word to Eleanor that he wouldn't be joining her tonight. But now, with the news that George had just delivered, his mind was elsewhere."You were right about Gwendolyn," George was saying. "I caught her...with one of the palace guards."Drakken shook his head disapprovingly. "I told you so. It's best to forget about Gwendolyn. She isn't good for you. You'll find your mate soon enough."George nodded, a small smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. "And you deserve to be with yours.""I will be dismissing Gwendolyn and her father from the palace tonight. It's long overdue."As a slight frown appeared on George's face at the news, Drakken felt frustrated with his fri

    Eleanor stirred in her bed and tried to shake off the remnants of sleep. She rubbed her bleary eyes and groaned, dragging herself out of bed as the carpeted floorboards protested beneath her weight as if voicing their own complaints about being disturbed so early in the morning. Eleanor stumbled into the bathroom, staring at her haggard reflection in the mirror and wondering how she would make it through the day.She was feeling restless that morning, and so she opted for a run. That was the only thing that could calm her, or at least she hoped.Eleanor put on her running shoes, tied her hair in a ponytail, and started to jog toward the forest at the back of the palace.As she entered the forest, she felt the cool breeze on her face, and her mind started to clear. She was running at a steady pace, but soon, she felt that same sensation that she always felt when she came here- like something was about to burst out of her.Eleanor stopped in her tracks and knelt down on the ground.
