Selene’s POV

The moment I opened the door, I wore a practiced, sweet smile. A harmless expression. One that made the world lower its guard.

She looked timid, with calm eyes. I glanced over at the tray in her hand and the plate of food covered on it.

“Your food, Miss Selene,” she said softly.

I stretched my hand, ready to take my food, when a wicked smirk appeared on her face.

In one swift movement, she pulled the tray away and swung it towards my face.

But I was ready, I had expected something like that.

I didn't flinch, only moving my finger, and the air froze.

“Foolish girl,” I said, and she gasped.

She froze mid-motion. The tray remained in the air between us, and I stepped forwards slowly until my face was close to hers.

She gulped, and I whispered into her ears. “I am a witch!”

She groaned and widened her eyes in panic. I had her trapped in her body and moved my fingers again, controlling her to stand upright.

“What are you doing?” She asked, but I kept moving around her

  • Alpha's Cursed Twain   Chapter 25: The Truth in Moonlight

    Celeste’s POVI grew tired of being alone and took Vanessa with me out to the garden. She looked around, smiling as she looked at the flowers. It was dark except for the lights from the bright bulbs. The cloud looked darker tonight, and I guessed it would rain, but it only stayed in one place. The thunder clapped, and I turned quickly in fear, cowering. Vanessa chuckled, holding me. “You're still scared of the thunder?” She asked. I tried to cover my shame and pulled away from her, clearing my throat and sniffing. “No, I'm not. I don't fear the thunder.”“I can see that,” she mocked, and we started laughing. My shoulder ached, but I refused to touch it. It had started the first moment the new moon arrived.“How are you?” Vanessa asked, looking at me. “I'm good,” I answered. “That's not what I meant. How are you? The pack and everything?” She asked. “I can't say I'm doing that great, or bad either. Killian protects me, but most times. I feel like a part of me is missing. I sti

  • Alpha's Cursed Twain   Chapter 26: Not Gonna Happen

    Celeste's POV:Vanessa pulled my arm, snapping me from my thoughts. “Who is she?” She asked. “Some sorceress that's here to help me,” I answered. “She looks like she's going to make it worse,” Vanessa argued. “I know,” I answered. “Then?” Vanessa asked. “She got Killian to make her a deal,” I answered. Vanessa scoffed and grabbed my hand. I raised an eyebrow, confused. “Come. We're going to see what that witch is up to,” Vanessa said, pulling me with her into the packhouse. Once we got in, I froze. That hissing sound rang in my ears again, making me want to scream. “You came, perfect,” the voice breathed in my ears. Go away. Shut the hell up!“You should have known by now that I have telepathy. The wolves have it too. Don't fight it or you'll make it worse,” the voice hissed in my mind. I looked up to see Selene smiling at me and the mai

    Killian’s POV Charlotte screamed, growling and snarled while holding her. She twisted like a mad possessed woman. “Charlotte, snap out of it! “ I said, using the mind link, but she wasn't listening. She didn't even react to my voice. “Charlotte! Your alpha commands you!” She growled, giving a bloody eerie scream. I frowned, tightening my lips into a straight line. Charlotte! I tried once more, but a loud screeching sound rang in my head. She screamed, her voice cracking with the heavy wind that suddenly came into the room, blowing the windows open. I didn't want to hurt her. I couldn't. She wasn't herself. “Charlotte,” I called, trying once more to reach her. She stopped, turning her gaze towards Celeste, her body contouring to the same way. Then her eyes darkened and glowed. “Oh my God,” Celeste gasped, and Charlotte roared. Vanessa began running towards Celeste as Charlotte roared. I felt my blood run cold, and she pulled away from my grip.

  • Alpha's Cursed Twain   Chapter 28: Tested The Alpha

    Selene's POV: “K…Killian,” I begged. “Don't!” “It was you, wasn't it? In my head?” Killian asked and squeezed harder. I slapped at his hands, begging for air, but he was having too much fun taking it out of me. “I killed my own today. I should send you to hell,” he snapped and loosened my grip. I fell to the floor, gasping and coughing, drawing breaths. “If I didn't have use for you, I would crush your bones,” he said. I started laughing, holding her neck and rubbing it. I had touched him exactly where I wanted. Now, he would respect me and not treat me like some lowlife. “Did you like my gift?” She asked, and my anger rose. He crouched to the floor and raised his hand to my face, smiling. My eyes widened in horror as his claws grew. “I didn't,” he said and scratched hard on my leg. “Son of a bitch!” I screamed, pulling my leg away, but he wasn't done. He held me still and brought his claws again on my arm. I yelped, and he smirked. His face dangerously close. “Tha

  • Alpha's Cursed Twain   Chapter 29: Whispers in the Dark

    Celeste’s POVI cleaned Vanessa's wound with a cotton stick and drugs. She flinched as I rubbed gently on the skin. My mind drifted back to an hour ago. Killian had looked downcast, and I felt pity for him.He wasn't the tough man on the inside like I thought he was. It made me realize he loved his pack members. That was why he was a better leader. His eyes turned sad yet had a huge layer of anger before he left the room. An audible voice rang in my ears, but I jerked the second it became clearer with a tap on my shoulder. “Celeste!” Vanessa's voice yelled. I snapped back to reality and blinked. “Girl, are you okay?” She asked. “I have been calling your name for a while. It's a good thing you ain't dead yet.”“Huh?” I groaned. “You're thinking of it, aren't you?” She asked. “That's why you zoned out.”“No,” I lied. “Uh,” she responded. “That's why you're pressing hard on my legs. You're going to give me a bruise.”I stopped

    Celeste's POVI raised an eyebrow, unimpressed by Selene's drama. “Hell no,” I replied, snarling louder than I had meant to.Selene's smile only increased. "Afraid you'll lose?"I laughed and rolled my eyes. “I doubt,” I replied. “I just don't see the point.”I turned, walking away from her. She made me angry even without trying. I felt my heart pound as I moved forward.I wasn't stupid enough to believe Selene was up to anything good. Whatever she was after, it wasn't a plain fight.Walking down the training grounds and down the hill, I moved quickly, ignoring Vanessa's voice calling my name.

  • Alpha's Cursed Twain   Chapter 31: The Breaking Point

    Killian's POVI stood there alongside the hill and watched them saddle up. Selene caught a glimpse of me and bent down before she passed by. I crossed my arms over my chest, hiding my face until Vanessa looked up at me. I stood stiff and unmoving, and she yanked on Celeste's arm, having her look over.Vanessa's mouth was open a fraction, and Celeste turned to follow her glance, almost jumping back when she saw me. Good. They should be afraid.She better have a good excuse for skipping the training.I'd been watching from the instant that Selene threw up her hand, muttering whatever spell she was. I saw how Celeste's body stiffened and how her eyes lit up when fire suddenly came into existence in her hand. That energy was not good. That was not

    Celeste's POVI heard fast footsteps on the ground. My ears caught on, and Killian's must have, too. His hands rested on my waist, pulling me close and staring into my eyes even when he knew someone was closing in on us.“Killian,” I whispered.He didn't budge, only bringing his face closer to me.“Killian,” I called again, and the footsteps stopped. I turned instinctively to where I heard the movements and saw Logan appear from behind the trees. His expression was hard until he saw us and changed to surprise.My cheeks turned red in embarrassment, and I looked away."Uh-o

  • Alpha's Cursed Twain   Chapter 67: Traitor and Lucifer. Could You Get Any Worse?

    Sam’s POVJoan’s mouth was still partially open, her face frozen in surprise as I walked away from her. I allowed a smirk to hitch at the corner of my mouth and strode out of the office without another word. It was a fun reaction, but it paled in comparison to what came next.All I could hear in the corridor was the echo of my boots against the polished floor. Joan had ruled long enough. Her hesitation made her weak. And in this world, weakness was a killer’s sentence.I finally made it to my room and closed the door. Locking it was merely a formality, as one would ever dare enter without knocking. When I dragged my bed aside, I revealed what few people had known existed. A steel hatch set into the floor. I crouched, prying it open. The cool air blew up from below, bear

    Joan’s POVThe floor-to-ceiling windows opened to a forest beyond, and the cold wind slapped my cheeks as I stared at all that surrounded me. A faint light above the rain-slick streets below.From this height, everything looked small and worthless. My men flittered about like ants, carrying some covered lids of wooden boxes. When they walked into the building with some iron boxes, I smiled.“The orders have come,” I mumbled, returning to my chair. Then, without delay, I poured myself a glass of whiskey.I sipped and felt the burn that it gave my throat.I swirled the whiskey around my glass, examining how the bright light caught the amber liquid. Opposite me, two of my men stood

    Celeste’s POVThat need pulsed between us, the air taut with it. Killian stepped forward, his predatory gaze locking onto mine and my breath hitched. That raw intensity in his eyes made me shiver with heat curling deep in my belly.“You’re the most stubborn, reckless woman I’ve ever known,” he muttered, the words with a low growl.His eyes danced down to my lips, and he gripped my chin between his fingers, tilting my face up to align parallel with his.“Killian…I,” I stuttered.“Shh,” he said softly and brought his hands to my neck. The gasp flew from my mouth as his f

    Celeste’s POVIt became a war that simmered through the day.I had believed I was in control. I had assumed if I teased Killian under the breakfast table, or even in front of his friends, I’d gain the upper hand, I’d rattle his normally unshakeable dominance with my boldness.I had been very wrong.So wrong, but it hurt so good.Killian hadn’t even responded to my teasing, and he’d then made it his goal to torture me.The first time, it had been discreet. I had passed him in the hall, letting my fingers graze across his chest as I moved by, but before I could get out of his orbit, he had gripped my waist, his fingers splaying p

    Celeste’s POVThe warmth engulfing me was foreign. It surrounded me, enfolding me like a coat of armor, so different from the hollow void I had experienced earlier. My breathing was regular, no longer labored. There was no pain, no residual soreness, no remnant of the injuries that once scarred my flesh.I was alive.Slowly, I opened my eyes. Sunlight poured through the curtains, leaving golden streaks on the bed. A soft light filled the room, a morning glow exposing the well-built man at my side.It was Killian.Soothing, even when he slept. His arm draped lazily across the sheets, his breathing even, the calm I rarely glimp

    Killian’s POVI looked down at Celeste, who was fast asleep. I sometimes wondered if she enjoyed living dangerously or was just amused by making me anxious.Why could not she follow simple instructions? Was she trying to provoke me into needing to use force? I hated seeing her scared after raising my voice, but she tested my patience.I locked the windows for the night and turned down the air conditioning so she wouldn’t catch a cold.“I feel like you are conspiring with the devil to expedite my stay in hell,” I said softly, lightly touching her cheek.I watched as she released

    Killian’s POVBlood. I smelled it before I saw it, thick in the air, seizing my senses. As I entered the clearing, I spotted her right away. Celeste lay in Vanessa and Selene’s arms, limp, far too pale. Her breathing was slow and low.Vanessa and Selene saw me right away. Selene backed off but lingered close, torn between offering help to Celeste or keeping her distance. My wolf lunged forward, a low growl rumbling out of my throat.I changed back into a human. It was fast and painful as bones snapped and fur was lost, but I hardly noticed. A maid hurried up, eyes down, holding jeans. I grabbed the jeans, feeling anger simmer just under my skin. As soon as I was buttoned, I stormed up to them, fury surging within.“What happened?” My voice had been so sharp and cutting.Vanessa began to speak, but I did not want explanations. My rage focused on Selene like a hunter. I reached out, grabbed her by the neck, and lifted her off the ground. A loud crack sounded as her back hit a tree, leav

    Killian’s POV“Or? What? You'll kill me,” I said, and scoffed. “Better start now!”She leaned closer and whispered. “I don't like killing today. Think about my offer, are you interested?”I glanced at her, not raking my eyes off her for a second, and asked. “What do you want?”Joan stood in front of me, her lips curling into a knowing smile. “That’s what I wanted to hear,” she said, her voice dripping with satisfaction.She turned and walked to a table. I heard some keys clanking against each other. Was she really going to do it? She walked back to me with a smile and spoke calmly. “Remember, no funny business.”I didn’t respond, but she kept her gaze and I finally nodded. I also kept my eyes on her, calculating every possible angle. The walls came in around us, the air heavy with something nameless. The smell of damp stone and blood hung in the air, a testament to the fact that I had stepped into the lion’s den, and that the lioness before me was the one with the power.She spun an

  • Alpha's Cursed Twain   Chapter 59: The Devil’s Bargain

    Killian’s POVThe pain in my ribs was sharp and constant. My shirt was torn and soaked with blood. It was warm against my skin.The air was filled with the smell of my blood and sweat and probably the old cell. It reeked of death and suffering. I wanted to puke myself every time I inhaled it. My arms were tired from being tied, but I made myself stay still.Joan stood beyond the rusted bars, watching me. Her face didn’t show what she was thinking, but she looked like she was in control, even with the dim light flickering above. Her face had lines that spoke of her experiences, yet there was something unnatural about her.Crazy woman. Crazy brother and maybe a crazy
