Though Mavis’s pride had been shattered after losing her hands, it did not stop her from making a fuss loud enough to keep the enforcers on their toes. “I am telling you to BRING HER TO ME!” Mavis shouted at the top of her lungs. The shifter blood in her veins eased her pain but it did not regrow her arms which worsened Mavis's temper. If she was born a perfect witch, then she would have done something to stop this from happening. She could have done so many things to save herself from being harmed like this but curse her father and his filthy mutt blood. “BRING HER!” Mavis shouted as she kicked the door. “If you don’t bring her then I will keep making a fuss like this!” She didn’t think that these people would continue to ignore her. “Is she acting foolish? How can that girl who was cursed by her be conscious?” The enforcer on the right asked his colleague. “I don’t know James,” said the other enforcer, he ran his finger through his Mohawk while staring at the wall opposite
Mavis noticed how Lily kept her distance from her. Her eyes held a tinge of pride and innocence as she kept her head up and spine straight as she looked at Mavis. If there was anything that Mavis hated more than anything it was the pride that Lily had as a shifter, she was bold and courageous while her mother often told her that as a dark witch, she had to hide herself. It turned the taste of her mouth sour when she thought about how this girl who was weaker than her had more pride than her. “Lily, listen to me… I was just trying to keep you safe. Don’t listen to others, no matter what they say. I was afraid that Levy would hurt you because of me, that's why I did that, do you understand?” Mavis tried to show kindness to Lily because she was desperate for help. How would she be able to help her Lady if she was locked up in this prison?Lily was already aware of the things that Mavis had done and she would never forget what Mavis did and said to her before trying to kill her. With Le
The door opened with a snap as the wood on the side of the lock cracked and splintered. Logan ignored the creak of the wood as it fell on the ground, instead, he walked past the door with a calm look on his face. His lips twisted while his eyes appeared to be looking around the things that were placed in the room. No wonder Mavis stopped anyone from entering her room. It was filled with magical artefacts and books, and the shelves on the walls had multiple bottles of poisons and whatnot if that was not all, he also noticed a hand that was placed on a purple cushion. It was shrivelled up and ugly. “What kind of life has she been living inside the room?” Jacob questioned with annoyance settled between his brows but at the same time, there was a little tremor as the room was frightening. “Don’t be scared because of a hand alone,” Logan stated as he walked over to the shelves and started pulling books. “Dark witches are known for their cruelty, I am afraid that we will find more than
“Ryan?” Levy turned around and looked at Ryan who was walking down the slope while heading towards her. “Whats the matter? Why is no one at the training ground.” “Logan wants you to head over to the pack hall, he says it’s important,” Ryan informed her. “There will be no training because of this.” Levy didn’t understand what was happening as Logan hadn’t told her anything but she nodded and made her way towards the pack hall. When she reached the front of the hall, she noticed how the gossiping and mumblings turned silent the second she stepped inside.“Good morning,” Levy’s eyes met Logan, who smiled at her with an amused look on his face. But what surprised her was that the seat next to him on the main table was empty. This chair belonged to Greta and as far as she knew Greta had never skipped a day where she could sit on the chair and show off her authority. Logan noticed Levy’s gaze and his smile widened. “Now what is this?” He stated with a mysterious smile. His head turned t
Levy could never understand the blame that was targeted at her by Mavis, as she didn’t see any wrong committed by her hands. It was Mavis who had ruined her, so what was she trying to do by glaring at her like this?“Why?” Levy asked. Her brows furrowed as she stared at the woman in front of her with a wave of complicated emotions in her heart. “Why did you do it?” She and Mavis had gotten along just fine when they were young, and this young woman seemed to have gotten along just fine with her. She had been kind and polite to Mavis who was shyer than the rest of the pack members and had a hard time getting along with the rest with her not-so-social personality. Thus, Levy couldn’t understand her reasons for hurting her. Mavis who had been living her life by weaving lies, couldn’t bring herself to say anything at that moment. Speech utterly failed her as she finally drew in a breath and then said, “Because you deserve it. Your mother was the cause of my mother’s abandonment. They wer
Levy could feel the glare that was directed at her but she didn’t pay attention to it even though the wrath of the dark witch was keenly coated in the glare. She couldn’t believe that Mavis had really done something so low, in the past she used to believe that Mavis was a victim of something similar to what she went through, she never thought that Mavis was the one performing the one-man show. She busied herself with the meal and ignored the woman behind her, Levy didn’t sympathise with Mavis. Because in the past this woman had watched her being dragged around just as she was now watching her stand in the pack hall while being ostracized. “Take her away,” Logan could sense that Levy truly didn’t care about the apology that should have been given to her. Since she didn’t want the apology there was no need for Mavis to stay either. The enforcers moved to catch her by hair, Mavis noticing what they were doing tried to struggle but was still caught. She grimaced in pain as she screamed
“Yes,” Logan replied as he led her back to the lodge. He didn’t say much as he knew that Levy needed the time to process the information that she had received. The two of them headed back to the lodge and Levy didn’t say anything, it wasn’t until they were inside the lodge and she was sitting on the couch did she purse her lips and then said, “I cannot believe that he did something so cruel. Abandoning his son just because he was a wizard… I don’t think I can ever forgive him for that.” “There is no need for you to forgive him,” said Logan. He walked over to the kitchen where he opened the fridge and then took out a carton of orange juice. He poured a glass of orange juice and then walked out of the kitchen before handing it to Levy. “If I am honest, your father deserved suffering alone.” After finding out that Mister Harlow had actually abandoned his twin brother outside the territory line, Jacob moved out from the Harlow house in the night. According to what Jacob said to him, he
Levy nodded at his question, “She is a witch huntress.” This was the reason why she was even more confused when she found out that Derek was staying with Amaira. “Then it worked out well for us. Since we are in need of inviting our friends to our mating ceremony and you need to buy a wedding dress, why don’t you go and take a look with your only friends?” Logan’s eyes were sparkling with mischief as he rubbed his fingers on her shoulder. Levy narrowed her eyes at him and he eyed her with innocence, “What? I was afraid that you would feel cold.” “I think I should check up on Jacob,” she said to him with a sigh. Levy placed the book on the table and then got up. “He must be upset with what happened last night.” “Let's go to Derek’s residence after you are done dealing with your sulking brother,” Logan proposed the idea and he said to her, “I will also finish the work at the council and the things that I need to deal with.” Levy nodded and left the lodge, while Logan picked up the b
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
