Wandering in the whole Pack, Liam was searching for Rory, whom he didn’t see from the previous two days.He bought a plane ticket for Rick and sent him off, happy news of Eric’s victory welcomed him back. He wanted to congratulate them but leaving it to some other day, he went to his home and found it empty.Cherry on top, no one in the Pack was aware of Rory’s whereabouts, which was strange. At last, he went to see Jason at work as he was busy in supplying the bricks from the storage to the construction site, regardless of Pack’s celebration.“Where is Rory? Have you seen her?”Liam’s worried tone confused him, Jason put down the pile of bricks and asked.“Didn’t you hear about her mysterious death?”Struck by a thousand volt current, Liam was frozen to his spot, his whole world crumbled down in a heart beat.“It, It’s impossible.”He stepped back and denied the reality.“The head warrior found her dead body in the forest. I have heard that she was the one to poison Alpha Eric.Gamma
Darkness of the basement was unable to engulf the shine of silver dagger placed on the table before Alpha Eric. It was his father’s gift on his eighteenth birthday and first Mating Ceremony, a token of his wishing for abundance and happiness. Currently, it was Eric’s only bosom buddy, he was sharing his misery with it.Three bottles down, he was emptying the fourth bottle of whiskey like a mad man, an ominous thought was turning into a resolute decision in his mind. Being intoxicated by alcohol was not subsiding the fire in his heart, only elevating it further. On the quest to find something stronger than this, he got up with that dagger in his hand, staggering towards the other corner of the large room.“Fuck!”Eric hardly moved a step or two forward and fell on the ground. He took deep breaths and rubbed his blurry eyes, his extraordinary vision was hazy due to Rick’s blackout.Right after the first bottle, Rick hid himself in the darkness, ignoring Eric’s wretchedness. Having no sup
“Congratulations, Luna!”Listening to this most awaited good wishes, Lily doesn’t whole day soaring high in the sky. After her husband’s death, Eric was her only life source, an apple of her eyes. Her son’s repeated failed relationships were her constant worry, rendering her sleepless nights.Now, this celebration in Pack was the end of the era of grim and shadows. Her wolf (Veronica) was on cloud nine, her dream of becoming a grandmother was a matter of days.Later at night, she was about to sleep when she suddenly felt an unease in her heart. “My pup!”Veronica howled, urging Lily to go check on him.“It’s so ill-mannered of you to check on your mated son at this time. Don’t angry me.”Her scolding didn’t affect her agitated wolf, she growled back at her.“My pup is worried. Move!”As Lily also felt a pit in her stomach, she abandoned the comfort of her soft bed and rushed towards the Eric’s room.But a lock outside of the door shocked her, confirming the source of her
“Little one!”Eric’s warning growl followed his lightening speed movement, he caught the case before it could hit the wall.“What was that, little one?”Not feeling hungry anymore, Charlotte pushed the tray away.“I didn’t like your present, can’t you get it?”Happiness of the yummy meal vanished in thin air, she resumed her work to it ignore him.“It’s not a simple present, it’s my family’s heirloom. You have to wear it as Luna of the Silver Moon Pack.”Eric’s honest reply confused her, Charlotte raised her brow.“Why? I heard that this was a rejected article from Princess Sophia.”While typing an answer, Charge gave him a stink eye.“Who told you this rubbish?”Eric was offended with the fake story attached to his Pack’s property.“Roslie.”Charlotte’s one worded reply was enough for him to get the whole tale. He sat beside her and held her free hand.“Look, I don’t know why, but Roslie lied to you. You can ask any elder in this Pack or in the Council, they will tell you the same th
The head Priest’s (Flora) genuine smile guided them inside the prayer area.“Do you remember this lamp?”Charlotte saw that bright holy lamp, and the chaos she caused that day flashed across her mind.“It didn’t extinguish because of me. I swear.”Thinking that Flora would blame her for that incident, Charlotte immediately clarified her point.“It was the Moon Goddess’s way of testing you, Luna.”Flora put some oil in the lamp and clasped her hands together.“This holy fire represents the Dietor bloodline of the Silver Moon Pack. When you ignited it, your fate was sealed with Alpha Eric.It was the Heaven’s way of giving you a choice for your life.”“Seriously, Moon Goddess?”Charlotte’s accusing gaze fell at the Goddess’s sculpture,“So you were on instant reply mode that day. Couldn’t be you more specific about the details?How in this universe I could get your point by this silly earthen diya?”Charlotte complained to the Moon Goddess in her heart, cursing her impulsiveness.“Eric’
Loud music and enchanting beauties in the city pub was not enough to catch the Beta Noah’s attention, only annoying him more.Being a pureblood Beta, the punishment of cooking for omegas was way more humiliating for him, their mocking gazes and harsh comments dampened his soul.He placed his hand on his heart as a pang of agony cut through it, he yelped in pain. After marking, Angie’s sadness was injuring his already wounded soul, but the fire of jealousy was intense like never before.“Why? Why I got a slut as my mate?”This question was out of his mind. Vicky was suggesting to burn the world with his rage, considering him the most unlucky wolf in the world.The mate for Noah was a heavenly thing, so sacred that he had to respect it with every possible method.Being raised by his sister, he followed the footsteps of Milly and stayed single, saving himself for his mate. She always taught him that his mate would also be doing the same, somewhere in the community. So, it became essentia
Charlotte’s eyes popped out at the silver sag A-line gown, she was checking its silver beaded net bodice on a flowing chiffon silhouette.“Why? What’s the occasion?”She thought that Eric had invited everyone for the Mating Ceremony, informing her at the last minute.“Nothing special, just a trip around the Pack.It came to my mind that you haven’t seen the land that you are ruling.”Charlotte rolled her eyes at Eric’s feeble attempt to flatter her.“I am busy.”She used her work as an excuse instantly. They agreed before that Eric will not hinder her work, in return, she will take part in Luna’s duties.“You have no work today, not until your laptop arrives.”Eric caught her lie, he had heard about the courier from Amy. Charlotte had ordered her work supplies from America to arrange an office there too.“I don’t like this dress!”Her other excuse was dismissed by Eric’s casual reply.“This gown is according to your liking. I ordered it after confirming about your preferences.”“You c
A day without Eric was Charlotte’s ultimate dream, but she started feeling strange with in half an hour of his departure. Her hunger vanished, mood worsened and she felt so lazy, wanting to spend the whole day in bed.“Ugh!What is this nonsense?”Charlotte knew that it’s the attraction of the mate-bond, her soul was empty with the absence of her soulmate.To freshen her mind, she came out for a walk at night, roaming in the streets. Walking mindlessly for some time, she reached the entrance of the forest and remembered,“Liam must be back from the US.”Looking forward to spend some quality time with him, she sauntered towards his house. The familiar scent of Liam was perfuming the area around his cabin, announcing his return.“So irresponsible, Liam. You didn’t even report me.”Charlotte bit her lip and looked at the wooden cabin whose door was flung opened.“A thief!”Dismissing this possibility after scenting the area, Charlotte entered the house cautiously,“Liam?”Then she almost
Five years later.“Now my girl is looking like a real princess.”Alpha Eric fixed Anna’s white frock and wore a gold chain around her neck, his eyes were filled with fatherly love.“I am hungry.”Little Anna cried out for food; this last-minute dress change was limiting the time of her preparation.“Do you remember your dialogues? Tell me?”Eric took her to the dining hall, where Orion served breakfast quickly.“If I meet the Moon Goddess in my dream, I’ll ask her for food for everyone.”“That’s my princess! Go for the audition and give your best. Your teacher will love it.”He praised her innocent act and fed her cereal gleefully.“Eric!”“Here we go.”Their happy session was ended by a warning hiss, Charlotte stormed out of her room.“Amy dressed Anna as a flower with great effort, she even tailored her outfit overnight. Why did you ruin her hard work?”She placed her hand on her back, walking through the corridors was a strenuous task for her in the seventh month of pregnancy.“I s
As soon as Casper destroyed Ramla’s curing pad, Charlotte’s pain came back in full intensity. She yelped and scratched her nails at the cage. The smell of the burning flesh suddenly overpowered the cocktail of different scents.Finally Eric started to respond to her efforts, his low growls motivated her dying courage. On the other hand, Ramla was struggling to resist those fire arrows, the unending sea of fire was consuming her power rapidly.“What do you think, Ramla? Your measly tricks can defeat the entire coven? The sacrifice of the Ring Fire Coven’s witches wasn’t for nothing.My ancestors are still with me, guiding me on every step. You cannot fight with me alone.”A ring of golden fire surrounded Lisa’s body, she rolled her sleeves and flexed her mark.“I am your sworn enemy and your worst nightmare, Alpha Eric. You signed your death order the day when you burnt my Coven alive.King Casper was just a way to approach you. I used his resources, as it was impossible for to take re
As a puppet, Charlotte received that silver knife with a smile and broke the necklace around her neck obediently. She didn’t even spare a glance at Eric, aimed the weapon towards her neck and locked her gaze with Casper’s dubious one.“Anything for you, Casper.”With that, she slashed her neck, blood gushed out of her wound. An involuntary howl came out of Eric’s mouth. The grim darkness prevailed before his eyes; the weakness of their bond shattered his soul.When he removed Melinda’s mark from his neck, he didn’t feel anything. But now a simple slash on their mark hurt like hell. He couldn’t even scream out his agony. Overwhelmed by helplessness, this torment was beyond his endurance level.On the contrary, the smile on Charlotte’s face was pleasant like winter’s sun. She raised that blade again.“It’s enough, Star.”Casper hastily grasped the blade and threw it away.“The removal of this mark will kill you. You are my beloved. I am not a heartless to hurt you like that.”Satisfied
The rattling of chains and squeaking of the iron tires shattered the eerie silence in the room, maids left quickly as that black cloaked man raised his hand.“The devil!”After seeing his bloodshed in the concert, Charlotte never thought that she would see him like this, but the silver cage behind that tall man paralyzed her for a moment.“Eric!”Her gut-wrenching scream resonated in the whole surrounding. Charlotte shot up to rescue him, but those restraints kept her in place. Eric's Alpha wolf was caged in a silver cage, two sired vampires settled the cage in the chamber and closed the door while leaving.Eric raised his eyes and whimpered, the extent of injury inflicted on him rendered him motionless.“How did you break into the security of the Royal Castle? You...”Charlotte was short of words to speak her mind, her heart pounded against her rib cage like a desperate prisoner, her breath hitched in her throat. That cloaked man stood still for half a day, the silence in the room wa
“My mate has left me.”Holding his head in his hands, Julian was wailing before his house. When he came back home after midnight, only emptiness welcomed him, seeping through his veins.Hearing his cries, the entire colony was gathered around him, the absence of Alpha Eric worsened his condition.“I thought that she forgave me.”Jason and Mathew were the last ones to join the grieving crowd, Mathew sat beside him.“Did she pack all of her stuff and left? And didn’t you mark her? Don’t worry, we will sort this out.”But Julian’s heart rendering tears fueled the fire of loneliness in his heart, his helplessness watered everyone’s eyes.“Ramla wrote a note for you. Read it.”Jason looked for Ramla in the house and came out with a paper. He handed him her last letter, but Julian threw it away.“I have read it. This is a lie. She made an excuse to leave.”Jason glared at his tear-streaked face for a while and counted to ten before bursting out.“After reading her goodbye note, you are cryi
“You didn’t pack my boxers.”Charlotte was balling her fists in the living room, whereas Eric was searching the bag efficiently at last minutes.“I asked you that if you wanted your boxers, but you said no. Why would I pack them?”She replied to him patiently, giving that Madam Lily was witnessing the circus.“Why don’t you ask mom? She knows what do I need in my vanity bag.”“You are not a child, Eric.”Charlotte’s hand flew to her mouth, as she and Madam Lily spoke this sentence simultaneously.“You both are bullying me. Great!”Eric stomped out to get his things from the room, Madam Lily said in a solemn tone.“I was used to do his work, as he was busy with important stuff. I didn’t realize that I was spoiling his habits.Don’t worry. I am his mother. I will straighten him like a line.”They left after the fifteen minutes argument, Madam Lily prayed to the Moon Goddess.“Please bless my children. They are happy after a long time. Please be gentle with them.”As soon as Eric’s car l
After staying alone for twenty-four hours, Noah started to feel ill and exhausted, unfit to perform the additional duty of the head warrior.“I am sick, please accept my one-day leave.”Eric mind-linked Mathew to keep an eye on him. As expected, Noah shifted on the way to his home bolted out towards his sister’s Pack.“He was lovesick, Alpha.”Mathew displayed his white teeth while reporting about the business work in New York, Eric fisted his hair in frustration.“This is not fair, little one.”He threw a heap of sixty files in front of Charlotte and cried out.“You have left all the work to me. I don’t even have time to breathe.”Eric pulled out his white handkerchief and waved it in front of her eyes.“Seize fire now. Get back to work.”Charlotte caught his peace offering and chuckled nervously.“I didn’t mean to give you a hard time. Leave this here, I will handle it. My laptop was bugging me, Sinjin is repairing it.”Eric sighed in relief that his mate was not angry anymore.“Why
Elijah Morgan handed a special message from the Alpha King to Alpha Eric, and commented on Jason, who was making faces at Mathew’s drink.“This vampire reminds me of someone very close to my heart. I am hopeful that he will be with me soon.”That psychopath had a flick of humanity in his cold eyes, Delilah opened a magical portal with a bright smile.“We will invite you to our small party. Just pray for us.”They left with the promise of meeting again, Eric was puzzled at these code wording.“May the Goddess Sanguis bless them with their desired wish. They have helped us a lot.”Charlotte sincerely prayed for that lycan couple’s well-being, Eric shuddered his shoulders and read the official letter.“What?”Charlotte swiftly peeked in and started laughing.“Now who is the good boy of the Alpha King?”“He stated that he is busy with his daughter’s mate problem. We will go on the Casper’s wedding to the King and Queen’s behalf.”Eric’s red face was displaying his control, he had to obey
“A special envoy from the Vampire Kingdom is asking for permission to enter our Pack. What’s your command, Alpha?”Beta Noah was on the border’s duty in the absence of Julian, he mind-linked Eric when he was having breakfast.“Send him in. I am in the dining hall.”.“Greetings, Alpha Eric.”That coffin-faced (dead inside) vampire lord presented a red envelope to Eric, and then spoke respectfully.“Second envelope is for the lady Beta. Where can I see her?”“Mr. Beta can also receive this.”Noah snatched that bag, as he had literally imprisoned Angie after coming back from America. His sister Milly was in the Pack for a rest after giving birth, so Angie’s interaction with others was reduced to nil.“His Majesty has ordered me to hand over this letter personally to lady Beta. Please understand.”Charlotte stared at his stilled pupils and eyed Eric.“Let him meet Angie. He is under the command of his King.”“This is barbaric.”Eric tore down the seal and opened the case.“Same as Alpha
