Levy’s eyes twitched when she heard Derek’s words, she has indeed read about Charlatan but the truth was that she could never find the truth about that dark magic. It was a mark of how despised and scary that magic was, that not even the darkest book that she has seen did not have a mention of that magic in it. “ I did try to look for it but …I never found anything about anything,” Levy answered honestly, even though she was not in the mood to discuss anything further with Derek, she still told him everything honestly causing the latter to chuckle. “ Of course, you did not,” he leaned forward and then faced Levy head-on until his eyes were looking right into hers. He softly sighed and then said, “ A few years ago when your mother might have been a little girl, something really terrible happened. This incident was buried by the association but you are Vanessa’s daughter and I think that you should know this but make sure that you do not tell this to anyone.” Levy frowned but nodded
Even though Derek told Levy not to look into the matter, she could not help herself from investigating about the matter which was why the second she returned to the pack, the first thing she did was rush into her room and rummage through all the books that she has kept aside safely. Finally, she found what she was looking for and then flipped the pages of her mother’s diary to the last page, the last page of the diary was still the same as she has left it and so was the word—— Charlatan. Levy’s face turned pale and her hands turned cold, at first she only had a small hunch but now she was certain. Her mother not only did she researched the dark magic called Charlatan, she even found out how to break the curse this might be the reason why she was attacked and later on killed.She closed the diary that was in her hands and then looked up at the reflection of her face in the glass of the window and noticed that her lips were slightly quivering and she licked her lips to calm herself dow
Levy did not answer at once instead she walked over to the small bench that was sitting on the side of the shed and cleaned the dead leaves that fell on the wooden surface of the tree before she sat down. Only then did she answer Elder Abbot with a calm look on her face, “ I am just worried that something might happen if I were to attend the party, it’s not like nothing will happen if I don’t but I still don’t trust myself with the members of this pack and my wolf doesn’t it, and since neither I nor my wolf likes them it’s better to stay away from them.”Elder Abbott nodded in understanding. “ You are right about that, a pack is supposed to be your safe sanctuary and it has been ruined for you, of course, you would not find it safe to attend a party where those who have wronged will be as well.” Levy shrugged as she crossed her ankles and then placed her hands on the bench before shifting to a side to give Elder Abbott enough space to sit down. “The one who is in charge of this part
Upon hearing this piece of news, Levy frowned and asked, “ Are they really capturing witches?” If that was the case then she was going to be in a lot of trouble wouldn’t she? Even if she was a half-shifter, her half-magic blood was going to get her in trouble with the shifter council, given that they were exactly like Elder Maximus. Old men who were scared of magic just because they could not fight it. Elder Abbot shook his head and then calmly replied, “ No, they are not rounding up every witch in the community instead they have been looking for witches who dabble in dark magic, of course, there will be an investigation if Maximus tries his all for it. But I did not ask him about it, that man is too much trouble and always uses his mind in an extraordinary way, if I were to ask him what he was planning then he will only think that I was in cahoots with you and then the two of us might be caught up in a lot more trouble than we already are at the moment.” “ Anyway, you do not need t
Levy was not a fan of dresses and she was not even thinking about going to the party but she wanted to see just what kind of dresses Regal brought for her. She straightened up and then walked towards the package that was placed on the corner of her bed and then took the dresses out of the package that Regal has brought for her. Once she took a look at the dress after unfurling them, she has to admit that Regal’s fashion sense was really good. The dresses that he brought for her were indeed really beautiful even if she did not want to admit it, she has to say that the dresses were one of a kind, the black one had lace embroidery on the sides while its front had a generous amount of space left to show of her bosom while the navy blue one had a corset on the top and a sleek fit on the bottom with a slit on the right to showcase one's long legs. A part of her did want to wear these dresses because they were really pretty, even if she would not care about her clothing but in the end, Lev
“ Levy, what are you doing in there for so long?” Logan knocked on the door again and this time around she could hear the impatient bite in his voice. Levy closed her eyes hoping to transform into a puddle of gooey liquid if it meant getting out of this dress but the thing was that she could not do it! She raised her hands and then shimmied her body hoping that she will be able to get some loose ends in the dress to make a way out of it but surprisingly, she who was thinner than a stick was stuck in this dress that was sticking to her body like glue and maybe it was her claustrophobia working but she felt that the dress was getting tighter. “ Levy!” Logan shouted again and this time around she could not stop herself from shouting back, “I am trying, you asshole just give me a dumb fcking minute!” “ A minute for what exactly and what are you doing inside? What are you trying? Levy Taylor Harlow!” Logan demanded from the outside of the room before he lowered his voice and asked, “ Wh
Levy was sure that the universe hated her with a passion or why else would she be stuck in this mess? She groaned when she was pulled up from the ground by Logan and stumbled a little when she felt him pick her up. “ Can’t you be gentler with me?” “ Oh I can, I just chose not to,” he replied as he got closer to her, even though she could not see him, she felt him getting inside her personal space and filling it up with his presence. Even if he did not touch her yet, she could feel him, the energy that he exuded was so intense that it smothered her even with a cloth covering her face and the upper half of her body. Authority seemed to be brimming from every pore of his skin. Raw, intense and powerful. Without even knowing Levy sucked in a breath and did not release it when she felt him come closer, the dress was covering her upper half but the granny panties that she wore were on display and she wished she had changed into something sexier than this. This man might have seen countl
“ What are you screaming for?” Logan asked when he heard her scream like someone was killing her favourite pet or something of the sort. He took the dress that was torn on the side and turned to look at her with confusion brimming in his eyes, it was just a dress! Was there a reason for her to scream like this?“ No, no, No!” Levy on the other end could not care about anything that he was saying, she looked at the dress that was thrown on the floor and clutched it with her hands without even caring to put on her clothes before turning to look at Logan as she asked, “ What did you tear it for?” “ What do you mean by tearing it? I did not tear it, it tore on its own,” Logan replied with a furrow of his brows as he looked at her before he continued speaking, “ And why are you getting angry? I got you out of this dress didn’t I?”“ If I wanted to tear the dress out then I wouldn’t have called you for help!” She retorted with agitation brimming in her voice, this dress looked really expen
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
