Alpha Edwin then excused himself from the group and walked over to where his daughter was standing. He looked down at the young Daniella and then said to her, “Why are you standing here like a Buffon? Do you not see that you are bringing embarrassment to me? They all say that you are dissatisfied and keep making jokes on my part. Didn’t I tell you that you should be happy and keep a smile on your face?” “But I don’t want to smile,” Daniella said to her father with a pout. “My mother is gone, I miss her why should I smile when I am upset? Ouch!” She grimaced when her father caught her by her arm and pulled her to the back. He looked around as if worried that someone might have heard Daniella. When he saw that no one heard Daniella and was not paying attention to her, he turned to look at his daughter whose mouth almost caused her to be caught in danger and glared at her hard. “Do you even know how hard it was for me to get my hands on the invitation to this party? You want me to mis
Daniella felt something snap inside of her as she looked at the boy named Xavier. Her eyes widened slightly as she clenched and unclenched her fingers before questioning the boy, “What did you say?” “I said that your mom deserved it,” Xavier who grew up watching his parents berate omegas did not think that he was saying anything wrong. He looked down at shifters like Daniella who had omega blood in their veins and continued to speak, “She should have known that her fate was going to be like this since she dared to get together with an alpha. Who asked her to be shameless enough to cling to an alpha when she was at the bottom? I think it was a good thing that your mother died. Now you can have a new mom with a respectable background——Ack!”Daniella did not know when it happened, she raised her foot and then kicked the boy on his stomach. Her eyes were filled with tears as she shouted angrily, “My mother did not deserve that. Don’t you speak nonsense about my momma!” Xavier who had fa
Daniella felt pain shoot down her body, she reached her hands up her head and tried to shake off the hand of her father. “Dad, please let me go. I will behave, I will never raise my fists ever again. I will be a good girl.” But her father did not pay any attention to her pleas, he continued to pull Daniella until they reached the warehouse where her father kept his pet dogs. Her father liked taming and controlling dogs that couldn’t be controlled by anyone. Daniella also knew how dangerous this place was and she had always stirred clear of this place but now her father was dragging her inside the very place that she feared. “Dad, please..please… I am scared. Don’t do it, I don’t like it here,” Daniella pleaded with her father. She hoped that he would sympathize with her and leave her alone but instead, he continued to drag her until they were inside the warehouse. The growls of big, small and scary-looking dogs echoed inside the warehouse causing Daniella to shrink her shoulders.
Levy stepped out of the lodge and saw a bunch of enforcers looking around as if they were searching for something, her eyes narrowed as she walked over to where her brother stood. “Did they find Daniella?” Levy asked Jacob with a worried voice. “They didn’t,” Jacob sighed. He was feeling a headache creep and rubbed his forehead as he couldn’t help it. He lowered his voice and stated, “I have no idea where she went, when I heard that she went missing I thought Ryan did something to her given that he did not want to accept her as his mate and she kept bothering him. But he said that he did not do anything, I hope he wasn’t lying.” There was a hint of suspicion in his voice. “He wouldn’t hurt her, there is no way he would do something like that. To his mate at that,” Levy stated with a shake of his head. “I hope that she only went to the mall or something.” “Her car is at the parking lot,” Jacob replied with another tired sigh. “If she is not found then I am sure that her father woul
Elder Griffiths knew that Alpha Edwin was not going to hear a thing that he was saying to him. Even though there could be a lot of reasons behind the disappearance of his daughter, or maybe she never disappeared Alpha Edwin was not in the mood to hear something sensible. “I will make sure that your daughter returns to you safe and sound, Alpha Edwin,” Elder Griffiths did not see the point of looking for a woman who went missing for just a few hours but when he thought about what Alpha Edwin’s eldest daughter did a few years ago. He could understand why this man was so antsy. But then again, if he hadn’t forced either of his daughters, nothing like this would have happened. Only then did Alpha Edwin calm down but at the same time he hoped that Daniella did not do anything foolish like his eldest daughter. At the same time, while Alpha Edwin was looking for Daniella, Logan was sitting in the record room where all sorts of records and files could easily be traced back. No matter how
Logan was surprised by this accusation as this was something even he had not prepared himself for, he wanted to question what Alpha Edwin was thinking and why he was suddenly blaming him. But he did not instead he turned on his feet and then remarked, “First, you forced me into taking your daughter as my mate. And now you come here and blame me for doing something to your daughter when I wasn’t even in the pack since the morning. Do you think I am the Grim Reaper? That I can snatch her soul even when I am far from her?” He then tilted his head to the side and questioned, “I don’t understand if you think of me as such a cruel man. Why will you want me to marry your daughter to me? What if … I kill her after mating with her? After all, even you survived the loss of your mate, Alpha Edwin.” Alpha Edwin was speechless by the words that Logan said but when he saw a few of the officials stopping and looking at him with confusion written on their faces, he understood everything. Logan was
Daniella who was falling felt her arm that was outstretched in front of her get caught. Her heart that was in her throat dropped back to her chest as she looked at Levy who was holding onto her. “Levy, you came!” Daniella’s face which was smeared with mud brightened as she looked at the woman who was holding onto her hand. “I did,” Levy replied as she pulled the woman up, Daniella who saw what Levy was doing immediately said, “There is a snake——”“It has been taken care of,” Levy said to Daniella as she turned to look at Carla who had skinned the snake and made it something else. Apparently, this snake could be used in potions and other things, which was why they couldn’t let it escape. She had never seen Carla as excited as she had just now when she saw the snake. Daniella heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that the snake had been taken care of, she kicked her legs such that Levy would be able to pull her up easily. Once Levy pulled her up, Daniella plopped down on the ground
Alpha Edwin pursed his lips. He wanted to say something but was interrupted by Logan who said, “Virgin. Virtuous and loving, all the qualities of a proper Luna, that’s what you said to me right? If even a single quality is missing, what should I do Alpha Edwin?” Logan tilted his head to the side, he stared at Alpha Edwin with a charming smile and added, “Wouldn’t I be suffering if I was to let go of my mate who is untouched and to accept a woman who has an affair?”“My daughter will never do something like that!” Alpha Edwin stated with a firm voice causing Logan to raise a brow. His smile widened even more and he remarked, “Then I am certain that your daughter will be somewhere in the pack.” He then turned to walk over to where Jacob stood, when he came to a stop in front of Jacob, the latter relayed everything that happened in the pack. When Logan heard what Jacob said to him, he laughed. Seeing Logan laugh Alpha Edwin felt that something had gone very wrong, he looked at Logan wh
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
