Danielle heard his words which made her mad to the extent that she pushed him back. The woman could not believe he was a manipulative person. She had seen a live example how Cyrus could use her as a scapegoat to deal with Lord Pierce. On the other hand the alpha was stunned by her sudden change and the push was the last nail in the coffin. He had no clue that she could be that blunt and bold under her innocent outward impression. She snapped at him with all her might as she yelled at the supreme alpha for being a jerk. Cyrus was caught off guard so his hands slipped from her tender body, now there was a foot distance between both of them. “In other people's arms, huh?”She scoffed at him with a hurtful expression which made Cyrus feel bad for some unknown reason. “Am I the one who preferred to strip in front of that…that pervert lord?”The woman was unable to refrain herself from not snapping at him with blunt words. She knew if that kind of incident had happened once it would happ
‘Oh no.’Danielle looked intensely at him and could not move for any bit, she realised what had been done. The woman was not sure what to do next and reflexively she covered her mouth. The grip around her dress tightened as she looked around haphazardly after getting the gist of the situation. Her survival instinct kicked in and Danielle began to look for the way out immediately even though she knew it. ‘No, no. I have to run.’Without thinking any further Danielle ran for her life and did not look back. The woman took bigger steps towards the exit of the dining hall with a pounding heart. It was the moment when she heard a loud growl of the alpha in anger. She knew what it meant but had no courage to deal with it, thus she ran out of the hall as the heavy door closed with a thud. As soon as she was out of the hall Cyrus wiped off his face with his hand as his sharp gaze glared at the door. Nobody had ever dared to talk back to him let alone spit over his face which was a punishable
‘Is this normal?’ Danielle was forced to question what she was witnessing and it made her scared. Her footsteps grew bigger and faster as the woman’s heart beat rapidly. What a day it was! Her life was at stake thrice by now in just a few hours? Possibly what else could go wrong? Probably everything? She cast a cautious look at the bird which was still flying at the same pace as her. On Danielle’s left side was the wall where multiple portraits were hung and the red carpet beneath her feet was stretched like a snake. Long and endless. Whereas on her right side were the open arches which had crimson shaded curtains lifted because it was daylight. Danielle could see the bird through those huge arches made of some strange grey stones. She ogled at the crow and felt as if the bird had been grinning at her which made Danielle scared. The woman immediately halted in her place not knowing what was happening. ‘No, no. Am I seeing things now?’ She had no other explanation and assumed t
Danielle saw the crows which came down in the spiral form, it appeared as if a whole darn rain of black crows was coming from the sky. She could clearly see that birds were into a formation which indicated they were not ordinary ones. Danielle understood the threat those crows posed since they were the vampires who were known to never leave their prey. ‘What is….why is this even happening?’ She was unsure why the vampires would suddenly invade the kingdom Selene. After all, they did not come to greet the alpha or anybody in the kingdom for no damn reason. Danielle automatically assumed that they might have come after her due to her peculiar existence. No doubt she herself knew that her tears were the most possible and easiest way to kill Cyrus or at least weaken him. It was clear to her that she was a potential threat to the apha’s life and possibly his cure too. Danielle was not blind to not see that whenever Cyrus was with her his health improved visibly. The woman was well awa
‘Have I said something wrong?’Danielle could clearly see that the woman in front of her was having mixed emotions and views towards her. Leita was oozing dangerous vibes along with the glare she threw at her making it obvious that she was dubious and enraged over her presence. ‘Why is she even angry with me for no reason? I did not even know she was here.’Leita was not happy to see Danielle there and now that she had disclosed her identity it enraged her even more. The woman was not alone in the room because when Danielle turned around she could see the faint black smoke near the ventilation. Since it was going out of the bedchambers it was clear that the smoke was not an ordinary one. Danielle had no idea who it could be because kingdom Selene was a welcoming place for supernatural beings. However, the civilians were still skeptical about the vampires and the very trait Danielle witnessed belonged only to the vampires. Although her suspicion grew about Leita being involved with t
‘This woman! How dare she speak to me like that?’ Leita's words made her mad even though she was used to those kinds of words and insults. But this time she was triggered mainly because Danielle was actually punished by the alpha. She looked at Leita’ proud expressions and her blood boiled because she could not accept the treatment given by the alpha. Frustration builds, anger takes hold, Danielle's mind became uncontrolled; she mumbled to herself, lost in thought the turmoil within cannot be fought. She tried to calm, but the rage persisted regarding how she was being treated. Her mind becomes consumed, and her thoughts resist. The self-mumbling soothed her soul but the anger within still taken its toll. She needed an outlet, a way to release, to find peace and finally find some ease. Perhaps some venting or some sneaky revenge could help her find a way out of that mess. The man bought her as if she was a thing, Cyrus then ridiculed and trampled over her self respect. Danielle was
Leita was sure that Danielle had no clue what she had been doing and that made her wonder if somebody trapped her or what. It was expected that the castle was filled with enemies and nobody was innocent as they appeared to be. She wished to press the matter more knowing that Danielle felt terrified and at that moment she would rely on her. Leita decided to approach Danielle and try to gain her trust knowing that perhaps she was not the villain in the whole damn picture since she was also bought by the alpha and had no clue why she was there. And it also made Leita realise that perhaps Danielle was also unaware of the supreme alpha’s curse. Thus, she approached her slowly, trying to appear non-threatening.Danielle could clearly feel the change in her tone which irked her but at that moment she also had no other option but to put faith in Leita. Since she appeared to be one of those people in Belle Morte who were well aware of what they had been doing. Danielle’s attention was snagged
Leita seemed to have finally gained her trust which made her inquire more from Danielle. The woman had already displayed her openness towards raising the issue of her safety in front of the supreme alpha. However, there was still more which Leita wished to know and before that big chunk of information she could not decide anything.This Leita seized the chance and put forward the question which had been irking her ever since Danielle mentioned she was brought there against her will. Leita glanced at Danielle who was sitting on the other side of the sofa, she narrowed her eyes to witness any kind of reaction from her.“Although,”She paused for a brief moment to garner Danielle’s attention in the midst of the quiet room where only the screeching sound was audible. When Danielle was willing to disclose whatever Leita was asking, she also did not hold back from asking the answers to the confusion she had. “Do you know anything about that dress which caused all the ruckus?”Danielle look
Danielle, dressed in her casual dress, rode her majestic horse towards the grand gates of the Kingdom of Selene. The wind whipped through her hair as she urged her steed onward, her heart pounding with determination. She could finally feel at home after coming back, though it was not how she had imagined the kingdom anymore.As Danielle approached the gates, she called out in a commanding voice, "Alpha Cyrus! Show yourself! Where are you? Cyrus!" She shouted as Danielle yelled his name in anxious tone, while beta Curtis and Lucien stood behind. They both were vampires and came there by shifting into their animalistic forms.The gates creaked open slowly, revealing the imposing figure of Alpha Cyrus, the ruler of the Kingdom of Selene who had gained back the control. He stepped out with an air of authority, his silver armor gleaming in the sunlight. His piercing golden eyes locked onto Danielle as he surveyed her with a mix of curiosity and respect."Danielle," Alpha Cyrus said, his vo
The sky was shrouded in darkness as Dominic's troops, armed and armored, moved stealthily through the dense forest towards the imposing castle called Belle Morte. Their leader, Dominic, a seasoned warrior with a reputation for ruthless conquests, had set his sights on the castle. The vampires were rumored to hold vast riches and power there and as expected they had ruined the whole kingdom. The people were really in trouble and starving because Lord Pierce and Khal had sabotaged everything.As they approached the castle gates after covering the cliff and the surrounding plains, Dominic's troops formed a tight formation, shields raised, and weapons ready to kill the vampires. The castle walls loomed high above them, guarded by archers who launched arrows towards the invaders. Dominic's troops advanced, using their shields to deflect the arrows, while returning fire with their own volleys of arrows and bolts from their crossbows. Everything was covered in silver and dripped in he potion
Back there in the vampire kingdom it was the time to set everything in place as planned by Lucien and Curtis. As the moon cast an eerie glow over the ancient castle, Lucien, the young and charismatic vampire, stood before the vampire lord Khal, the imposing Vampire supreme, in his dark throne room. Lucien's piercing red eyes were filled with determination as he tried to persuade Khal to take action against Pierce, his supposed ally.Lucien: "My Lord Khal, I come to you with urgent news. Pierce, your trusted ally, has been acting against your wishes. He has been making secret deals with other supernatural beings and has been plotting to undermine your authority."Khal, with his crimson eyes glowing with curiosity, leaned forward in his throne, his fangs glinting in the dim light. Lucien knew he was a fool with power and was his father’s most entrusted person, and after his death Khal took the place. The throne was rightfully Lucien and Curtis’s. Khal kept them alive to humiliate both,
As Danielle walks through the castle, she can feel her heart racing. She knows that what she is about to do could change everything. But she also knows that she must do it. As she approaches the big, immaculate door, she takes a deep breath and steadies herself. She places her hand on the cold metal handle and pulls, the door creaking as it swings open.Inside, she can hear the sound of Cyrus's voice echoing through the halls. She steps inside, calling out his name. "Cyrus? Are you here?" She hears footsteps coming towards her, and she turns to see Cyrus walking towards her with a smile on his face."Danielle, what a pleasant surprise," he says, his voice warm and welcoming. "What brings you here in the hall?" He had no clue that there were two Danielle now in the castle. Danielle takes a deep breath, gathering her courage. "Cyrus, there's something I need to tell you," she says, her voice trembling slightly.Cyrus looks at her, concern etched on his face. "What is it? Is something wr
Cyrus moved closer towards the woman with a keen gaze, his eyes were fixated over her face as if he was trying to figure out if she was really an imposter or not. Cyrus leaped towards her and lifted her chin and convinced her that Cyrus was persuaded she was Danielle. “Good afternoon, love.” He toyed with her hair lock making it evident that he trusted in the idea of her being Danielle. “I heard from Leita, how she lured you into a trap. Although she has confessed which I appreciate but I still have not forgiven her for putting your life in danger just to save Curtis.”Cyrus displayed everything in front of her taking that woman in confidence that he was convinced with her plan. He intentionally said all those things and showed worry for her safety. “I am just happy they did not harm you, these bloodsucker beasts!” Martha looked up at Cyrus, her eyes filled with gratitude and relief. "Thank you for believing in me, Cyrus," she said, her voice trembling slightly. "I am unscathed, as yo
After Danielle was sure that Lucien and the vampire lord Khal will not kill her, she became even more worried as to what was her importance now. Nonetheless, she stood there after Lucien was done talking and waited for any other blow to come. “Take this woman to the bed chambers of east wing and keep an eye on her.” Khal instructed and waved his hand to shoo her off with Lucien.Danielle follows Lucien and two female maids as they lead her to the east wing of the vampire kingdom. The hallway they walk through is dimly lit, with flickering torches illuminating the way. The walls are made of ancient stone, and intricate carvings decorate them. Danielle can't help but feel a sense of unease as she walks down the corridor, her heart racing with anticipation.As they approach the bed chambers, the maids push open the large wooden doors, revealing a spacious room with a large four-poster bed in the center. The bed is draped in crimson silk, and a velvet canopy hangs above it. The room is ad
However it was the moment when that man turned around and his eyes shone bright, his fangs grew longer as he glared at Danielle. “You…you are not Curtis!” Danielle immediately grasped her senses and looked back at Leita was stood in the entrance of that hut with a hurt expression. “I am sorry, Danielle. I am sorry.” Danielle had no idea why would Leita do something like that when she had not done anything wrong to her.Nonetheless, she somehow managed to look back at that man who was a vampire no doubt and perhaps had come to take her life. He lifted his arm and the door of the hut was shut, Danielle knew her life was in danger that was why she tried to shift in her lycan form. But for some reason her wolf was not responding at all. The man snickered. “There is no use of trying, the flowers, they were lycan’s weakness. Your lycan is drugged and asleep for long now.”Danielle felt a wave of panic wash over her. She was completely vulnerable in her human form and there was no way she co
Cyrus walked inside the alpha Dominic’s study to inquire about the progress of finding his beta Curtis because he has been missing from more then four months and is nowhere to be found within the kingdom. Alpha Cyrus suspected that he might be somewhere in the kingdom Selene but upon getting no news of him Cyrus became worried. It was evident that the beta was alive because Cyrus could feel his potential presence due to the blood bond they had.Cyrus sat across from Dominic in the study room, his hands clasped together on the desk in front of him. He leaned forward, a look of concern etched on his face. "Dominic, I've been meaning to talk to you about Curtis," Cyrus said. “Have you found any information about him? It has been too long, we have already checked morgues, injured camps, gateways of kingdoms too but there is no sign of him.” Alpha Curtis was not sure where they should have looked because Curtis was nowhere to be found and it had been driving him crazy.Dominic's expression
Danielle is sitting in the bed chamber, holding her newborn baby close to her chest as she breastfeeds. She looks down at the tiny bundle of joy in her arms and smiles, feeling grateful for this special moment. Suddenly, she hears the sound of footsteps approaching the door and looks up to see her husband Cyrus walking in."Hey, love," Cyrus says softly, closing the door behind him. He walks over to the bed and sits down next to Danielle, placing a hand on her shoulder. "How's our little one doing?""He's doing great," Danielle replies, glancing down at the baby and stroking his tiny head. "He's been a bit fussy today, but he's finally settled down now."Cyrus nods and takes a deep breath, looking relieved. "I'm glad to hear that. I just had a long talk with Dominic about some issues we've been having at work, and it was a bit stressful. But being here with you and our baby makes everything better."Danielle smiles warmly at her husband and reaches out to take his hand. "I'm sorry you
