“ Are you rebelling?” Greta was so livid that she almost passed out from anger, her entire body was trembling including the small toe of her feet. If she was a few years younger, she would have fought with this grandson of hers even if it meant taking him down. Her face turned red and then purple before twisting and mixing in a way that she looked like a badly sunburnt radish. “ I am not,” Logan stretched out his hand and then picked up the tongs to take a few pieces of bacon from the curved dish that was sitting in front of him and then placed it on Levy’s plate ignoring the fact that they were being glared at by a group of angry shifters. “ I am simply doing what one will call damage control, last night as everyone already knows a dark mage snuck inside the territory do you think he or she entered the pack without any internal help? Especially when enforcers were guarding the pack’s territory even more carefully than they usually do?” Though what Logan said was true and made compl
Logan looked at the spilt food and clicked his tongue before saying, “ Tsk, tsk, looks like you will not be able to eat anything till lunch now.” His voice was cajoling like he was teaching a small child who threw tantrum a at him, he raised his head and as if he was blind towards the glares that he was getting, Logan smiled and said, “ Now you all will have to either manage your meals from outside or wait until lunch is prepared. My money does not come from nowhere all right?” After he was done speaking to the council of elders and Moira, he turned to look at the young man and said to him after taking another bite of his poached eggs, “ You can ask Greta or Moira to make up for the loss that happened just now, if they don’t then revoke their breakfast until they repay the money.” The young submissive wolf inhaled sharply as he looked at the two women who were looking close to passing out, he knew that this time the one who will be suffering the most was him! Seeing that Logan had
“ You should ask this from him,” Jacob turned to look at Logan who was eating his breakfast without even looking at him even though Jacob knew and accepted that Moira deserved the punishment that she got, he still felt a bit awkward and guilty about hearing or mentioning about it, no matter what she was his mate —— and the incident from last night made him wonder if he was in the wrong for choosing his sister over his mate. Levy looked at the worry that was marring the forehead of her brother and she turned to look at Logan who arched a brow and then dropped the toast that was almost touching his lips and brought it to her lips, “ Take a bite, looks like your hands haven’t recovered yet.” As he spoke his gaze fell on the plate that was filled to the brim but was still untouched. “ I can eat myself,” she took the bread from his hand and then took a bite once she was done eating a bite of the bread, she turned to look at Logan who was silently eating his poached eggs. Her gaze dropp
With the council leaving, it did not look like they were willing to forgive Logan for what he had done much less accept that they were in the wrong. If anything, all the glares that they pointed at her made Levy quite certain that this matter was far from over.“You do not have to mind them,” Logan suddenly spoke up as he hit the nail right on top of her head which made Levy turn and look at her in confusion. “ They might be upset with me but there is nothing that they can do against me or you at the moment. What I have done is within the laws of the pack and Moira was the one who was in the wrong from the start, at most they will continue to throw tantrums at you and me, but other than that there will be nothing.” “ That does not explain what you did,” Levy pressed and the man sighed before he turned to look at her and then replied, “ I pulled her claws out,” his voice was calm despite the fact that Levy’s face went pale from shock. “ You do not have to feel pity for her, as much as
Levy turned her head away not knowing what to say anymore when Logan saw that she was still unwilling, his eyes turned a bit dim but then as his gaze fell on the scar on her neck that reached to her back and further down, he sucked in a breath and squashed his desires. “It's not that I do not wish to talk to her but that girl has not an ounce of regret left in her heart. She had been long spoiled by my grandmother, in the eyes of Greta, Moira is the only one who had followed her to bits. She despises Regal’s birth and as for me even if people call me cruel and say that I am even a step ahead of my father and grandmother, it is not praise in the eyes of Greta since she knows that I wish to break the council that controls me. In a way, I am like my father and uncle who tried to get out of the grasp of the council but failed … I on the other hand am much stronger than the two which is a cause of worry for Greta.” “ I don’t know why you are telling me this,” Levy said as she turned to l
Eduard did not expect something like this to happen he looked at the small footsteps and then turned to look around the garden, as he looked around he did not forget to speak in a mock courageous voice, “ Who is it? Who is the one playing around come outside now. Is it you, Cindy?”He did not receive a response instead the small footsteps started to increase more as if the person in front of him was in a hurry to get away from him. When Eduard saw this he was so scared that he fell on his bottom while looking around in the garden with a panic-stricken look on his face —— this …was the territory haunted? There was a ghost moving around in living daylight! Eduard could not believe what he was seeing, he raised his hand and then wiped his eyes but when he dropped his hands, the small footmarks were still there which led to him raising his arm and rubbing it furiously over his eyes and when he dropped his arm, he was certain that he was not hallucinating. His eyes moved at the footmarks
When Levy saw the woman with her eyes tied with a white strip of cloth, she was really surprised. It was impossible for her to see what kind of emotions the woman was hiding in her eyes, and her face was too blank for her to understand what kind of emotions were brewing inside the woman’s heart. “ Who are you? And why do you call me the daughter of Ginevra?” She asked the young woman who was sitting on the couch with her legs crossed. “ Is it not Ginevra? Was it Minerva this time? Maybe she might have gone to choose a more trendy name, is that it?” The woman asked in response to Levy’s question which only further confused the latter. “ I am here in response to the incident of last night my child when your mother was young —— she left you in my care … I have been the guardian of the witches of the light for a long time and went to sleep but last night your soul escaped your body and woke me up, it was with great sacrifice that I placed your soul back in your body. Thus, it weakened
“ I am Amaira, the seer of the future and the seventh guardian pillar of the white witches born and raised by the first witch who descended on this very land,” replied the woman with her hand placed on her bosom as she introduced herself in a voice which was both mystical and entrancing. “ I am one of the oldest witches who walks on this very land, my sister has unfortunately fallen in the hands of the black-hearted ones leaving me alone to protect this land while the ones who managed to get away with their lives moved to another land which was protected against those whose heart is black.” She curled her lips into a smile before she lowered her head and then continued speaking, “ When you were born, the dark and the light witches and wizards were in a war, I was called for I can see the future. During the war, I over-exerted myself causing great damage to my powers and eyes, which led to my body getting sealed away by my comrades. I promised your mother that I will protect you natur
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
