Levy woke up the next day when the sun rose to the sky and the sunshine was blaring through the big French window that was on the left of the room, her brows scrunched up before she shielded her face with the back of her hand and the slowly blinked her eyes until she was completely awake. However, even after waking up, she did not rise from the bed she stayed where she was and then stayed at the same spot while staring at her bandage-covered physique of hers. She could see that even though she had her hand on top while taking care of the monster, she was still injured a lot by the woman in the black market of wizardry but the pain from her injuries did not make her feel like she was nothing but crap. Queen’s words were still ringing in her ear and she could hardly sleep last night, throughout the entire night she was twisting and turning, the sight of her mother being killed in various ways flashed in front of her eyes and she couldn’t even differentiate between reality and dream.
Levy cast him an odd look, she blinked her eyes and looked at Logan with surprise in her eyes. She was pretty sure no one other than her mother has ever washed her hair, her red hair was considered bad luck in the shifters community given that they feared witches the most and unfortunately for her, most witches had red hair. Ever since her mother died, she had to learn to wash her hair because no one would do it even if she was just a child and washing her corkscrew curls was the hardest thing to do. “ What are you doing?” She couldn’t help but ask as she looked at the man who was helping her. “ I think it is rather obvious,” he replied while massaging her hair. “ I am washing your hair.” “ Why would you do that?” Her question did not have a wary air about it but instead, it had a little bit of naive curiosity, which made Logan pause his movements and then he smiled at her. “ Because I want to, is this something so precious for you?” “ Don’t you know that the red hair of a witch i
“ And you like every year want me to remember how good of that woman was when she clearly wasn’t,” Levy heard Logan speak, she didn’t know much about Logan’s mother but she did know that she was a woman who spoke a little and always had a weird, gloomy aura about herself. She was a witch like her mother but she was more beautiful with golden hair and blue eyes that seemed to have a soul of their own, but for some unknown reasons, those eyes always had a haunting look in them. Unlike her mother who was a pure-blooded witch, Logan’s mother was a witch who didn’t have much magic in her, she was more of a shifter than anything which was why the alpha married her when she was handed over to him after he won a shifter dual. She would often make things like potions and spells but even after trying for a very long time, she would often fail, Levy only heard her mother talk about Logan’s mother once in a while and didn’t have much of a recollection of her early days but she did remember that
Levy looked down at the bowl that still had quite a lot of porridge left in it, she raised her head and looked at the man who was standing in front of her and then sighed before dropping the spoon in her hand into the bowl. Even though Logan did not say anything, she could feel the chill emanating from his body, this wasn’t the time for her to find trouble with him. She rose from the seat as soon as Logan turned to walk out of the lodge, hot on his heels she chased after him as she ignored the glare that Moira was throwing her way. It was as if she was blaming her for Logan’s lack of compassion towards their dead mother, something Levy found rather amusing. Logan was anything but compassionate towards his mother, ever since he found out about her weird antics, he has never spoken a word to her again, even when she died he only brought a couple of white lilies to lay at her grave and nothing else. But seeing how short-tempered Logan was looking, Levy thought it was a wise decision fo
‘ He could really learn how to be a bit more sensitive,’ thought Levy as she looked at him. She knew that Logan was blunt and hardly cared about the emotions of others but this was really too much, he was literally stabbing ones in the heart with his words alone. However, she didn’t understand why he was asking about the death of her mother nor did she know how this topic was suddenly being asked but even though she understood why she was being asked these questions, she had no answer to these questions either. Before yesterday she always thought that her mother died because of a mistaken experiment but after the small meeting with Queen in her dreams, she realised that her mother was most probably killed by the dark witches. Though she did not understand why dark witches would go after her mother then again, her mother was looking for a way to counter the charlatan magic and that magic was mentioned by that Frankenstein doll of a woman as well. “ You are still thinking about it,” L
“ What are you doing?” Levy flung his hand away from her hand as she blew on the wound that started to bleed because of Logan pressing on it, even now she could feel the burn on her skin which was still hurting. Logan looked at Levy who was cradling her hand, her expression contoured in pain as she glared at him through her bangs, the spot where the skin was scraped slowly turned red because of blood oozing out of it. Instead of letting go of her hand, he snatched it back and then wiped the blood that was oozing out with his handkerchief. Levy did not understand what he was trying to do, was he so messed up in his head that he was bullying her because he was in a bad mood?“ Keep one thing in mind, Levy…you do not hand out the orders to me, you do not tell me where and when I will let go of you, I will do it when I want to, there is no need for you to fight me and on top of it, it would be better if you don’t hide things from me. If you step out of the line without me knowing then I
Levy was stunned when she heard Logan stand up for her, she didn’t know whether or not his threat was empty or not, but when she turned her gaze to look at the man who was standing in front of her was no longer looking at her instead he was now sipping on his drink. He went back to his seat where he was sitting earlier and Logan too went ahead and sat down on the empty couch, he leaned back and then he threw his head back before sighing as he rubbed his eyes and then turned to look at Levy who was standing beside him looking awkward. “ What are you waiting for? My invitation? Sit down.” Levy looked at him in confusion, she did not understand why he brought her here but she didn’t want to stand in the middle of the hall which was decorated like a small club like a statue either which was why she did as he asked and then sat down beside him while looking around the room, her gaze fell on the small pixie-like girl who was walking in the middle of the room carrying a tray of treats in h
Levy gritted her teeth when she looked at the way Damien was treating his mate, he might as well take the award for being the worst mate in the world because that was exactly what he was, the worst asshole in the entire world, she did not think that there was someone who was worse than Logan but now that she was looking at Damien she had to agree that at least Logan was man enough not to do something so cruel for no reason at all.“ Don’t move, you aren’t safe yourself, how are you going to save someone else? Stay put.” she heard Logan say from the side, when she refused to look away from Cordelia who was crouching on the floor, Logan placed his hand on her thighs and gave it a harsh squeeze. The pain was enough to bring her to reality as she finally gave in and looked away from the torture that was happening in front of her but she felt sick to the core, if not for her seeing things far worse than this, she would have gotten sick. While sitting beside Levy, Logan saw that her comple
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
