Still Valerie’s POV“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 fuck out of my way.” Maverick growled in her face, making her shrink back in fear.“Enough, Mav!I meant it when I said you need to play nice. You are scaring her too much, she could run away and go into hiding again. We need her, and you know we can’t afford to linger in this dump for much longer. We need to leave now so we could have a head start. King Gerald will not spare time in tearing us apart. So I need you to stand back, Mav. We don’t have the time to pamper your ego. Let’s just get the hell out of here in one piece, then we can establish our throne and everyone would b
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
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 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
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 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
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.

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
