Still Mavericks POVI recognized Charlotte's friend immediately and I knew that she was here to cause trouble for me and Valerie, or maybe she was sent her by her father to trick me and get me to make a mistake that would give him the opportunity to swoop in here with his warriors and get me arrested for violating his orders and fooling around with his daughter again.You remember the silly whore u screwed while I was in the Academy for Alphas and Betas, I mean the same bitch that I used to get into King Gerald’s secret basement. I’m talking about the one and only, Beverly Kingston, the lycan princess. The last time I saw her, she was being dragged by her father's guards after he caught us screwing our brains out in his dungeon. I wonder why she is not with her betrothed. Last I heard, her father was arranging her marriage to a Lycan general. He has thrown me into the dungeon for defiling his daughter, and at the same time, he was making arrangement to ship her off to the general.I’m
Still Mavericks POVThese girls are smart…I have to give it to them, they are really smart. Would you believe me if I told you that coming out here with Beverly is also a setup?Well, it is…And I had no fucking idea. I would have sworn that she didn’t know about this as well, but the glint in her eyes says it all. She has been so excited since I told her about this outing, but I didn’t think too much of it because I thought she was just being the brainless whore that she is. She had already mentioned it a few times that she wants to get back together. So that is what I had in mind when I was speaking to her and warning her to stay the fuck out of my life. I was so pissed when she kept ignoring me, and I flared up immediately, “Now listen to me, you bitch. I don’t care who you are, and I don’t fucking care about your father either. We had a thing in the past, and now it’s over. I’ll suggest you move on with your life and stay the fuck away from me.” I roared angrily in her face, whil
Cameron’s POVI sighted that bitch immediately after I got into the restaurant. Her name is Charlotte Keller, and she has been hitting on my man for a while now, or should I call him my brother, I really don’t think there is a difference anymore. He’s my man and at the same time, he’s my brother. I would rather lose Maverick to these whores that keep coming after him than lose my brother to any girl out there. I love Shane more than I love myself, I can’t imagine a life without him. It started out as a silly joke, I was just drawn to him like a soulmate. And when I made a move, he embraced it with open arms, showing that he feels exactly the same way that I do. It’s quite a shame that I can’t openly declare my affection for him, and I can’t continue fighting for two men at the same time, it’s quite difficult you know. I found out about her from a spy I pay to keep a close watch on Shane and report back to me if he’s messing around with any girl. I can’t possibly follow him everywhere
Still Cameron’s POV“You must think that I’m so stupid. To think that I actually thought you are wiser now. I guess you need to be reminded that my brother is way out of your league. He is in love with another woman, and she has my full support to be with him. So back off, bitch!” I yelled in her face, glaring at her dangerously. We were standing in the parking lot outside the restaurant that I met Maverick and Beverly. After threatening Beverly, she stopped using her strength and other weird abilities on me. We just stood in front of Maverick, glaring at each other and hissing furiously like two venomous Pythons. While we fought dirty and even when we tried to hurt each other, Maverick never said a word to us, he didn’t even attempt to stop us or something. He just sat in the same spot as a spectator, and he stopped his wine while watching us engage in a public display of madness. “You have to choose, Maverick!” She tells him angrily.“Yes, Mav, You must choose who you desire to be
Still Cameron’s POV“Why don’t you pause for a second and think about everything I just said. I’m not a lunatic, you know, I won’t just come up with such a ridiculous story if I’m not sure about it, would I?” Charlotte asked me furiously, trying to sound as convincing as possible but she only succeeded in posing me off even more. Hearing her spouting trash makes me really glad that I abandoned the fight between Beverly and I when I noticed that she and my brother were missing from the restaurant. After Maverick affirmed that he was not going to choose either one of us, he walked out on us and drove off in his car. We were both left in the restaurant, and all we could do is glare at each other. It’s obvious that I can never beat her in physical combat because I am no match for her. She has her wolf’s enhanced abilities, whereas I’m no different from an ordinary wolf. Fighting her again, with all these people staring at us would be more embarrassing than the first time because the guy w
Still Cameron’s POV“What is wrong, Cameron?Is this another one of your lovers, is he trying to abandon you as well?” Beverly asked mockingly, and she laughed at her own joke, laughing hysterically like a fucking clown. I turned to go stare at her, but I didn’t have anything to say to the bitch because she seems too daft to comprehend my words. This time we were out in the open and I thought I have an advantage because she is a princess and she wouldn’t want to say or do something that would be embarrassing to her father. But it turns out that Beverly Kingston is such a shameless bitch. She couldn’t care less if I was embarrassing her in public, all she wanted was a chance to prove that she is faster and stronger than me. But I didn’t give her that chance, I stood in the same spot and I watched her acting so mean and lousy, calling me many despicable names and threatening to rain down fire and brimstone on me if I ever go close to Maverick again. Her guards stood next to her, and ver
Valerie’s POVSo, I was going to deliver a file to the accounting department downstairs. I have no idea what Maverick is building at the pack house, but he has been approving some checks and invoices for some days now. It says he is renovating the basement of the pack house, and from the invoices, I saw that he was ordering some high-security equipment from the best security company overseas. If you ask me, I think he is hiding something down there. I wanted to ask him about it, but I figured he will tell me if it was important, so I just let it go and let him go ahead with his project, after all, I’m just his personal assistant, right?At least that is what everyone in this building thinks anyway. I was going to the accounting department for the one-hundredth time this morning, then I heard a commotion from the reception hall. At first, I was a bit surprised because the security guards would never let anyone come down here and create such a noisy scene, but when I peeked down the hall
Valerie’s POV“You must think that I’m really stupid, Miss Keller. I should have been more careful around snakes and manipulators like you. I should have known all this from the beginning, I should have known that you are a fucking traitor. You fucking tricked me into falling for your lies and believing that you were on my side. Fuck!I’m such an idiot!I watched you manipulate every one of us and I never thought I would be next. You manipulated Maverick and made him give you my job, you manipulated the omegas and made them treat you like a fucking queen. Now you are manipulating Beverly and I, making us hate each other. You want him for yourself, don’t you?Fuck I’m such a fool!Why didn’t I see it coming, you fucking tricked me!” Cameron yelled as she approached me with hatred in her eyes, scaring the shit out of me. For a moment there, I thought she was going to hit me or something, so I moved back in fear, hoping to get away from her before she hurts me or does something really wo
Valerie’s POV“Wake up, sleepy head. It’s almost noon!” Maverick nudged me, trying to get me to wake up.“Go away, I just fell asleep an hour ago!” I respond sleepily, hearing him laugh so hard that you would think that he was at a comedy show.“And what were you doing all night?” He teased me, coming up to lay beside me on the bed, pulling me into his arms, and kissing me so passionately. “You’ve got your answer, Mav. You are the reason I was awake all night. Now fuck off, I need to sleep.” I responded sleepily, turning away from him, but he pulled me back into his arms, trapping me between his legs, kissing me more fervently with his hands on my boobs. He held me so close, letting me feel his erection. His hands on my body, and his lips on mine are enough to wipe the sleep off.“Don’t be like that, my love. I’m only trying to grant your wishes, besides, you weren’t complaining last night, were you?All day and all night, I’ll be here to protect you, I’ll never leave your side, my l
Mavericks POV“We don’t have time to argue and fight, they are so close to finding us. If we ever want to break the curse, it’s now or never!” Devon let out firmly, leaving no room for argument. I tipped my head to gaze at her curiously, trying to figure out what she meant when she said it was now or never. At that moment, we heard an explosion from the other side of the basement, and I know immediately that she is right this time. If we don’t get it done right now, we may never have the chance to be in this basement again because they would have brought it down with their explosives.“Follow my lead and chant with me,” she ordered Val, sounding a bit bossy, or is that fear I hear in her voice?“No, Dev. I need you to follow our lead, and I need you to keep shut and observe. I would tell you when it’s time to chant the spell of compassion to the moon.” Val told her firmly, making her a bit shocked. She thought Valerie is just a child that knows nothing about the healers and their ways
Still Devon’s POV“What the hell, Devon!Why would you barge in on us like that?You scared the hell out of me, what is wrong with you?” Maverick asked me angrily when I used open the door and walked in without prior notice. Hell, I didn’t even knock to alert them of my presence because I’m so fucking mad at them. Could you believe that while I was being chased by Harold Armstrong and King Gerald, these two were in this basement having so much fun, screwing their brains out. Like, how could they be comfortably banging each other when the world is about to end. I know this is necessary for the ritual to work, their mating and bonding is part of the ritual and that is why I stood out there waiting for them to be done with it. But they just wouldn’t stop, they kept going on and on and on, and even when they heard the sounds coming from the other end of the basement, they still wouldn’t stop. I couldn’t wait any longer it seems they can’t get enough of each other, and even if I stand out
Devon POV“Leave and never look back again.”That was the plan when I left that garage. I felt so embarrassed to be outsmarted by that child. She knows nothing about magic, she is not worthy. I can be a better sorcerer, I am the last witch and I have what it takes to stop this war. But her pride and greed got the better of her, or maybe it is because she has fallen deeply in love with Maverick. I don’t know what her reasons are, but she wouldn’t give up her powers to me, even if she knows that she can not perform the ritual on her own, when doesn’t even know the words of the spell.Yet she refused…“The only reason you are still breathing is because of the bond we share. Unlike you, I still try to play by the rules. I know it’s a crime if I take the life of another shapeshifter or human. So I’m going to say this only once, and I hope you don’t let me repeat myself. Let my words sink into that thick skull of yours. It’s either you join our team or you fuck off, stick with me or stay the
Still Valerie’s POVHis mouth left my nipples, moving up to my neck, I felt his canines on my marking spot, making me see stars, and that is when the real magic occurred…First, I saw stars, I mean, that's all it took to push me down the edge, making me gush more of my sweet juices between my thighs. Then we heard howls in the air like all the wolves suddenly woke up from their slumber. The howls kept coming from different directions, sounding so blissful to the ears. It felt like nothing I’d heard before, the howls wouldn’t stop sounding. When one stopped, another picked up from there, and they howled to the moon, making the moment more blissful and magical. It’s not night yet, and the moon is not yet out. But I can feel the presence of the moon already, and bi knows we must be doing it right because I feel so relieved already. It felt like a huge weight has just been lifted off my shoulders. I wanted to know what was happening out there, I want to see if the howls were coming from t
Valerie’s POVHe’s been acting so beautifully since we had that little talk. We bared our hearts to each other, and now we can see that our bond is stronger than it used to be. In fact, now I understand why it took me little time to settle in nicely in this city. This is my city, my home, and it’s so good to be back here with my memories intact. It’s all coming back to me, it’s now beginning to make sense in my head. After shopping for everything we needed, I led him to a secret entrance to the basement and he was so who led because he had no idea that this place existed.I smiled in amazement as I imagined myself playing in these woods as a child. I even saw my mom walking excitedly in this courtyard as she performed her rituals as if her life depended on it. There were other kids in this courtyard with me. I’m guessing they are my sibling or just friend. But we were all happy together and we watched in awe as our parents carry out some experiments with magic.“This is so beautiful, m
Still Mavericks POVCenturies ago, Lakewood and Woodbridge were not separate, it was just huge city that is densely populated by both humans and Werewolves. The lycans and vampires did not allow humans to live around them. We could accommodate the humans because they were of help to us after we lost our powers. We needed the numbers because we couldn’t defend ourselves from all our numbers enemies.We lived peacefully with the humans, my great-grandfather was king and we had the most beautiful pack house in all of the city. Our pack lived in Lakewood, and the mayor's mansion used to be our pack house before we were kicked out of the damn city. The other Alphas moved away after we were cursed by the moon goddess, but we refused to move away because we need to preserve our heritage. The packhouse held many secrets and secret powers that could never be replaced or abandoned.Woodbridge used to be a little city outside our city. It was at Woodbridge that the healers settled in. I could rem
Mavericks POVAt first, I was pissed, I was so fucking pissed, like what the hell is wrong with her, why would she tell me to ditch my guards, is she a traitor or a spy, did king Gerald get to her before me, has she been deceiving me all this while?I had too many questions on my mind, but no answer because I simply don’t know why she is sounding so crazy when our lives are in danger. I guess she was right when she said that I don’t trust her. The truth is that I don’t believe that she is capable of breaking this curse. To me, she is still that naïve girl that didn’t even know her true identity. I’m in being completely honest, I would admit that a part of me wanted her to relinquish her powers to Devon the white witch. I don’t know why I suddenly have this doubt within me, maybe Devon's words are getting to me the wrong way. In any case, I think Devon was right when she said that Val is not fit to wield such power. She knows absolutely nothing about magic and her gifts, she only relies
Still Valerie’s POV “Damn! This is bad! I’m literally shaking in fear, Malia. Are you sure we can do this, are we ready for this?” I asked my wolf, but she wouldn’t say a word to me. I nearly scream in rage as she ignored me, sometimes she can be so damn annoying. I’m sure she would have responded so quickly if this question was being asked by Maverick or his wolf, Hunter. She makes it look like I'm the stupid one who doesn’t understand how the mating bond works. Yeah, while that may be true, I still need to get her to listen to me and speak to me like she used to when it was just both of us. But she couldn’t care less about my feelings, she doesn’t even care if I’m jealous of her relationship with Hunter and Maverick. She still does everything to please and satisfy her mate, and when I get bored or scared and begin asking my many questions, all she would say to me is, “You are stronger than you can ever imagine. You haven’t discovered all your abilities yet because you don’t let
