Carla turned to look at Levy whose face was paler than the moon and raised a brow at her, wondering what was going on. “ What is it?” Carla asked with a frown as she looked at Levy who was slightly trembling. “ Why are you stopping me?” “ I know this voice,” Levy replied, she licked her lips with her tongue as she looked at the door with a fearful look on her face. “ I once heard the same voice in the auction of the death marathon. This man always betted against me and even urged others to hurt me, I heard from the wardens of the prison that he belongs to a witch-hunter family, I have never seen his face but his voice… it's firmly imprinted in my head.” When she was sent to the prison there were all sorts of humans who came to watch the death marathon, it was a race which was curated just for the sake of fun for people like the man outside. Not only were they allowed to place bets on prisoners like her but they were also given special gifts, as long as one wanted to they could thro
Startled Tyson looked at the shifter in front of him with a flushed face, as he cleared his throat and said, “ I am here to see Charlotte.” “ Why are you looking for her? She is not here today and I suppose that even if she was here, I would not have let you see her,” the shifter announced while leaning on the door frame with half of the door closed behind him while he looked at him with his arms crossed in front. Tyson continued to look at the shifter, he had heard from his elders that shifters and witches were as chummy as water was with oil, they always had separate paths and never crossed each other’s line. So why was this shifter here? Was it because Carla was not a witch but a human? “ You seem to be misunderstanding me,” said Tyson with a smile as he took out a small hair clip that he was holding in his hand, it was a hair clip which had a miniature camera fitted inside it. “ She dropped it and I only picked it up for her…nothing more, since I picked it up, I wanted to retur
“ The next time you dare lay your filthy eyes on her, I will rip them out and have them shoved in your arse and then in your mouth since you do not know where to put them,” she heard the man say and pursed her lips, it seems like if he did not need to answer the council, he would have truly done what he was saying. Tyson looked at the man who was hitting him like he had some personal grudge against him, he tried to think of a reason other than this man being jealous of him and trying to get close to his lover for hitting him but no matter how much he tried to think of a reason, he could not come up with one. It looked like he was in the wrong and misunderstood this woman who lived here, after all, a witch and a shifter were a rare match. He wanted to say something more to this man but when he saw that the shifter was once again raising his hand to punch him, he deflated like a balloon and turned on his heels before running as fast as he can, if was afraid that if he stayed even a se
Hearing this Levy turned to look at the broken hairpin which was being held by Logan and asked, “Will you be fine?” “ I will be all right,” Carla waved her hands as she chuckled in a slightly annoyed voice. “ These things might be a bit of a hassle to deal with when they are taken hold of altogether but this was broken into bits and it will not be as harmful as you expect it to be, so it can still be dealt with much more easily when compared to the entire thing.” She raised her hand and studied her fingers which were slightly paler than her entire complexion and then turned to look at Logan who was standing behind her, “ You think you can get something for me, boy?” “ A house? Yes. Minus the lake, I do not think that there is any lake closer to my territory which is why I will have to ask you to make sure that you make as many memories as you want with this lake lest you start complaining to me.” “ Shame, I would have liked a place with lake much more,” said Carla as she sighed a
“ And what were you going to do?” She countered with a raise of her brow as she questioned the man who was questioning her. “It's not like you would have done anything when you did not even come to see me.” Logan raised a brow as he looked at Levy and then asked in a soft voice which was full of teasing, “ Are you saying that you missed me?” “ Of course not!” Her refusal could not come any faster which only caused Logan to chuckle as he placed his hand on the side of her waist as he pulled her close to him. This time he was not willing to let her run from him, given how quick she was to give him a slip-up, Logan was not looking forward to seeing her cold back.“ There is no need for you to feel shy, if you were feeling lonely there is nothing to hide from me. After all, I might have been an arsehole but I am making up to you, right? I even looked for an elderly witch to help you such that you will be able to find a way to get out of the predicament you are in as quickly as possible,
Levy did not say anything she simply pushed herself off the floor and then patted her cheeks before she twisted on her feet and then stood up from the floor. She did not look at Logan instead she rushed to the bathing room where she closed the door behind her and then walked up to the sink, turning the tap on she watched the cold water fill the sink up before she cupped a handful of water and splashed it on her face. Again and again, she repeated the action until she was sure that she was no longer feeling as aroused as she was before placing her hands on the sides of the sink and looking at her blushing reflection.‘ This is not going to help me.’ She thought in her head, she wanted to get as less entangled with Logan as she could, she agreed that what he was doing was indeed helping her but she could not just forget the torment of those seven years.Even if she was to accept the fact that he did it because she had a curse cast on her, Levy was still finding it really hard to just l
Carla walked up to where the middle-aged man with a blind eye was weighing down the apples which the young woman had brought and then waited until the young woman was done buying the apples before she walked closer to her colleague who once worked together with her. “ Are you already looking for a woman to marry and settle down? In a hurry aren't you?” She commented as she looked down at the red apples and clicked her tongue when she realised that he had used magic to turn them into ripe and fresh ones and threw the apple which was in her hand back in the cart. Before raising her head and looking at the man with blond hair and green eye looking rather charming despite one of his eyes being scratched out. “ Is that even a thing to ask, Carla? Not everyone is willing to wait until they turn hundred before settling down,” he told her after he took his gaze away from the young woman and then looked at the elderly witch who was disdaining him. “ With the current circumstances, a war is
Carla paused as she turned to look at the man who was standing behind her and then smiled at him, “ Only fools will burn themselves again after getting scalded once already and from the looks of it, you are one of those fools, Michael.” With that, she turned on her heels and then left the supermarket but she did not even go three steps away from the entrance of the supermarket when she saw a crowd of humans running in her direction, her expression changed when she realised that the one who was in the lead was the same young woman who was smiling at Michael just minutes ago. The cross on her chest had been replaced with a silver one and before Carla could even get the time to call Michael and tell him to run, the group passed by her and then she saw them attacking her colleague whose eyes were wide, he was holding his phone in his hands and looking at the human girl with shock in his eyes. ‘ Fool’ Carla cursed in her head as she watched him getting toppled by the human crowd as they
Levy didn’t even get a chance to breathe when Logan engulfed her in his arms. He tightly held her as he whispered,” Fuck, you scared me.” When Levy heard him say those words, her eyes softened. She knew that only a few minutes had gone by since she was taken to the magical realm by the goddess of magic. She then felt his body go pliant against herself as he questioned, “Why did you do it? You knew that you could have died and our child ….” He whispered as he looked at her abdomen. His wolf curled up protectively, fortunately, the child was still alive. Either through magic or the power that Logan had breathed into Levy’s body when her soul disappeared. “I didn’t want to do that,” Levy’s eyes darkened when she heard his words. With her hand placed on her abdomen, she said, “I had no idea that I was pregnant with our pup. If I had known then no matter how strong the resentment of my past was, I would have stopped her no matter what.” “Fortunately, I am fine and so is our pup, looks
“Happiness is subjective, my child. Once my daughter’s memories fade away, she will forget you,” said the Goddess with a calm voice. “But I cannot trust a man born from a shifter with my daughter.”Logan clenched his fists and said, “You are wrong. Levy is not like that, and you know that. She is the future of Elaine, and Elaine did not forget what Jasper and Alyssa did to her. Even though centuries passed by she kept that pain in her heart and soul.”“Even after her death, her soul did not forget the pain and continued to harbour the resentment that she could have forgotten,” Logan knew that he was playing with fire but he would rather burn to death than let Levy leave him. “I might have Jasper’s blood but I am not a vain and greedy man like him, I promise to love Levy and keep her happy. I will cherish her no matter what.” “I have heard these words, my child,” said the woman with a smile on her face. Though she was smiling there was a hint of contempt in her eyes. “I have heard the
Logan glanced at Derek. At that moment he felt like his heart was burning with a fire, one that he wished he could set free on the world. What was going on? His mate, who was fine just a moment ago was now dead. “Why? Why did this happen to her?” Logan questioned. His mate deserved better than this, no one deserved the world. So how come? Was there no God up there? How could they watch his mate lose her life like such?Derek opened his mouth and closed it back. He knew that Logan was in pain and he was not in a condition to understand anything. He reached out his hand and then held it in front of Logan before saying, “Take my hand, I can bring you and her to the southern palace.” The mana in his body was running low but he could still warp to the Southern Palace. Logan pursed his lips, he looked at Levy whose face was getting paler by the minute and then reached out to hold Derek’s hand. He did not know what lay in the Southern Palace but Levy was the one who asked him to go there
Carlisle’s expression changed. He wanted to escape but Derek seemed to have understood his intentions. He raised his hand and drew another array, the vines that had caught Carlisle in a vice-like grip, twisted and turned as they started to climb higher and higher until the vines had covered him completely. Derek didn’t even bat an eye as he tightened the vines, the sound of a mournful scream echoed in the distance before blood and flesh gushed out of the vines that had twisted around Carlisle's body. “You!” Alyssa turned to look at Derek. Her eyes flashed cruelly, she looked at Derek and sneered, “You killed your brother? Mavis was right, you have always been a stain on my blood.” When Derek heard her words, he calmly glanced at the woman. He said, “I might be a stain in the name of the dark witches and wizards but what about you, Father? You have killed your sister not to mention how many families have you ruined. No matter what, compared to you, I am still nothing.” Alyssa stare
The two people fell together. Alyssa who noticed that Levy had grown stronger, realized that the plan that she had come up with, seemed to have fallen through. “You have always been one pain in the bottom, sister,” Alyssa snarled, showing her dark teeth, that were rotting because of her body deteriorating with time. She raised her hand and then pushed herself off the boulder floating over her body. With the dagger that she had made with the claws of the first shifter, she aimed at Levy’s heart, with a twisted expression. But Levy raised her hand and drew an array to block the dagger. The sharp blade clashed with her shield, however, the dagger was made with the claw of a shifter. The two powers clashed with one another causing sharp waves to rise from the spot of the collision. The shield cracked and Levy waved her hand sending Alyssa to the side of the mountainous wall. However, Alyssa didn’t let Levy escape. She ignored the pain at her back and rushed to where Levy was, she caug
‘She has been preparing for this day for centuries,’ Elaine whispered. ‘And the dark witches and wizards are under her control. She must have deliberately licked out the wrong information. We have no time, you need to let me take over. Only when I have full control can I finish the last half of the curse.’ Levy thought about it, she had no way to get out of this cell as Alyssa seemed to have prepared it just for her. Her eyes narrowed and she said, ‘I am willing but I have one condition.’ ‘What is it?’ Elaine asked. ‘You will not kill or hurt Logan like you did the last time, no matter what the situation. I know that he shares the same blood as the man who betrayed us but he is my mate, I cannot lose him. As long as he lives, I am willing to do anything,’ Levy waited for the witch’s response as she had gone quiet.‘I will not kill him. Since you are my essence and he is your mate, I cannot take him away. I will think of a way to stop the curse from affecting him,’ Elaine gave her w
“Shut up!” Alyssa turned to look at Levy. Her eyes flashed with anger, and with her feet turning around she marched up to Levy, her chest heaved up and down as she said, “What do you mean by cowardly? I am the one who united the dark witches and wizards! I was the one who killed your mother and I was the one who took your father and mate away from you.” “Cowardly? Hah!” Alyssa’s eyes turned black. Her lips curled disdainfully, “Have you forgotten who sent you to the prison? It was I, dear sister... I was the one who ruined your life. All your lives!” “And yet you are here,” Levy smiled without sounding offended. She glanced at the rotten body that was patched and sewn together like a doll that had been sewn together because of a child’s stubbornness, who refused to throw it away. “In this pathetic condition.” “Elaine, you seemed to have turned much more talkative and bold than before. Don’t worry, sooner or later you will be in the same condition,” Alyssa then raised the vial that
Even though Derek spoke those words as soon as Levy breathed life into his corpse, he was a step too late. The trap that the dark witch had set for Levy was in motion, the second Levy tried to rescue Derek. She knew that Levy would try to save Derek the second, she found out about his death. The two of them have been so close to one another and Derek had even placed his life on the life to protect Levy. So how could that woman ignore him? Thus, she had created a port-way using Derek’s corpse which would lead Levy to her. The dark fumes rose in the morgue before ——“LEVY!” Logan’s eyes turned red with anger when he saw that his mate was taken away. His face twisted as he walked over to where Derek was lying. Logan did not care if this man just woke from the slumber of death, he only cared about one thing and that was ——Derek was the key to everything. “Where is my mate? Where did you take her? She saved your rotten life O Neil!” Logan’s fingers curled around Derek’s throat, if not
“W..what?” The glass in Levy’s hands slipped when she heard about Derek’s death. Pieces of glass were scattered all over the ground. “What did you say?” There was no way Derek was dead, she just met him a few days ago, how could he be dead all of a sudden? She asked Logan, “Who told you such ridiculous news?”“No one,” Logan sighed. He was at the council where the body of Derek was brought before being placed in the morgue. “I saw his corpse being carried to the morgue. His body was found by the forest rangers and they sent him to the council.” Logan knew that Derek was important to Levy, and even though she did not like him romantically, she cared for him just as much as Derek cared for her. This news must have shattered her in a way he couldn’t even imagine. “Ho…how could he be dead?” Levy muttered, her feet shaking as she staggered behind. If not for Logan, she would have fallen on the floor. “Careful,” Logan said as he reached out and caught her waist. “Can…can you bring me t
