“ Your lineage?” Levy frowned, she knew that she was going to hear something that she should not but before she could stop the latter, Regal was already bobbing his head. He turned to look at the lake, his back facing Levy as he softly continued to speak, “ Even though everyone has accepted that I am my father’s son, some still do not wish to accept me, they think that I am not my father’s child and they believe that I am a bastard, of course, my brother thinks so too.” The young man took a deep breath and exhaled before he continued speaking, “ As you already know, I was brought by my mother who left for her territory after I grew up, no one believed her when she said that I was my father’s son. I do not blame them either after all, I too think that if I was in their shoes I wouldn’t have believed that I was my father’s child. After all, I don’t look like him at all.”He turned on his feet and then looked at Levy with a smile on his angelic face as if he was not questioning his v
Levy did not say anything in response, when Regal saw that she was not saying anything he smiled at her and then bade her goodbye, “ I will see you at the banquet then.” “ Sure,” Levy replied watching the man leave the room as she pursed her lips and sighed before walking inside the shed where she sat down on her working chair and spent the rest of the time without saying another word.When the clock struck nine in the night, Levy closed the books and transfigured them once again into bottles of potions and left the pack after she was done. On her way to Odd One Out, she caught sight of Derek and a woman standing in front of the restaurant. The two of them seemed to be having some intense discussion. “ I am telling you there is no need for you to get involved,” hissed Derek with a glare at the woman who raised a brow and pouted. “ But I want to see,” the young woman replied and upon seeing Levy, her eyes lit up as she waved her hand. “ Is she the one?” Levy offered a confused loo
Levy wanted to go to the black market to buy her dress, the reason was simple, she did not have enough money to waste on something like a dress for a banquet that she did not want to attend in the first place even though Logan handed her his credit card she was not inclined on using it because who knew when that man might turn crazy but of course, her suggestion was denied by both Derek and Daniella. Instead, they brought her to a well-known boutique in the town that she has never been to before, Daniella, the young cousin of Derek told her that this boutique was known was making fine dresses at a reasonable price and they even made adjustments in just a few days. She further went on saying that the dresses sold in the black market of the witch and wizardry shops were full of black magic and pranking spells cast on them. The only reason people sold their dresses to the black market was that they wanted to see chaos happening in the world. But that was not what made Levy agree to th
“ You seem like you are in a hot mess,” Levy said as she let out a small whistle causing Daniella to sigh as she tugged on the sleeves of the gown. The young woman nodded with a heavy expression and then she opened her mouth to speak again. “Honestly, if it was up to me I wouldn’t have agreed with my father’s suggestion but if I didn’t agree then he would have stopped me from meeting Derek, you know how it is with shifters they do not trust witches or wizards even if they are half shifters and honestly, Derek is the only one who understands me which is why I had to agree.” There was a slight defiance in between the annoyance that Daniella was showing on her face, she turned to look at Levy and sighed. “It's a mating match, and I don’t want to go there at all.”She sure had a lot of trouble, thought Levy as she looked at the withered-looking girl. She then couldn’t help but ask, “ Why don’t you want to go to the mating match? Sometimes your mate is not what you expect them to be, mayb
“Oh I hope she did not hear us,” Daniella whispered as she pulled away with her. She did not seem too keen on talking with Cordelia or with the woman who was with her. “ She will definitely treat me like some stupid brat if she was to see me, lets's move we need to get out of here.” However it was too late for Daniella to escape the woman who was shopping with Cordelia already saw her and then with a smile that was filled with mockery she walked over to where Daniela and Levy were, she raised a brow as she came to stop in front of Daniela and then said with a haughty look in her eyes, “ You are here, Dani? What a surprise, I thought you were grounded because of what you did the last time.” “Even a crazy bitch like you is roaming free, so why can’t I?” Daniela raised a brow. Levy could see the sparks flying between the two women and very wisely decided to take a step back, she did not want to get involved in a cat fight and from the looks of it Daniella looked like she was totally i
“ Why are you telling me this ?”Levy asked turning to look at the young girl who was asking her to stay away from Cordelia.“She is the daughter of the witch hunter, didn’t I say this before? Oh, you must have thought that she was one of those fair witch hunters right? Then you are really wrong. Her mother was known for acting like a tyrant she killed many witches and wizards for fun once her mother got old she settled down in a territory and mated with a shifter who did not know that she was a witch hunter, no one knows what happened but one day that girl’s mother massacred half of the pack where she was living and vanished. The reason she does not fit in anywhere is because of the sins of her mother.” Daniella explained everything to Levy as she told Levy about the views that were instilled in her mind when she was young.Levy tilted her head and then smiled at Daniella with a bit of a derisive note in it. She lifted her head and then showed the mark of a murderer that was imprinted
“Aunt,” When Derek noticed that his aunt was looking at Levy’s mark he couldn’t help but warn the latter lightly. He was afraid that his aunt might say something unnecessary and make Levy uncomfortable, he was the one who brought her here and it will be a shame if his own family member was to say something degrading to Levy.Miss Rosalind removed her gaze that was fixed on the brand of the murderer and then turned to look at her nephew, from her expression it seemed as if she was silently asking Derek what was wrong with him but because he asked her not to say anything, Miss Rosalind did not speak nor did she do anything disrespectful towards Levy.Seeing that the atmosphere of the room was getting worse, Daniella who was looking at a gown which was put on display on a mannequin immediately spoke up, “Aunt, shall I try this gown? I think this one will look pretty on me.” Miss Rosalind turned her attention to her niece and then cleared her throat when she saw which gown Daniella was t
Levy did not reply instead she stood silently while listening to Miss Rosalind speak.Miss Rosalind’s lips were set in a thin line as she looked at her and then said, “ I truly do not understand how the brain of my nephew works which makes me wonder if he is truly alright in his head or not sometimes. But for his sake I will make an exception for you, I do not wish to do so but Derek has never asked me for anything not since…” she trailed off and then raised her head to gaze at Levy profoundly, “ What are your intentions with my nephew?”“ Forgive me if you misunderstood,” Levy replied with her back straight and her eyes gazing at the woman who was looking at her with a dubious look in her eyes. “ I believe there is no need for madam to be this rude with me, I have no such intentions regarding your nephew that will make you worry. I only came here because he invited me, if my presence makes you uncomfortable then I will take my leave now.”As she spoke, she turned around to walk out o
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
