Jo looked at the tall and dark general who was watching her very closely and for some unsettling reason, he appeared happy to have spotted her instead of being angry for the trick that was pulled on him earlier. ‘General, these two slaves are my old friends and not demons. I will be in your debt if you talk to our Alpha and release them after this hunt is over’, Jo worded herself carefully so as to not rouse any suspicion. Dante gave her a small smirk and decided to play along a little. ‘Are they werewolves too then? How did they end up in this hunting ground?’.‘Umm, yes General! They are werewolves who have been wrongfully captured in the hunting ground. Merely low ranked omegas as myself, hence we cannot shift like the other strong pack members’, Jo tried to sound as pitiful as possible, as a dazed Dante continued to watch her. ‘Why was she lying?’, he questioned himself inside his mind. He still could not figure out Jo’s true scent, but he wanted to believe that the mate scent e
Jo walked ahead of the two fairies who were gossiping nonstop behind her. If she knew fairies were such chatterboxes, she would have never made the deal!Dante won the hunt and there was a feast tonight in his name. But unfortunately for Jo, that meant she had to accompany Dante as his chosen maiden. Keeping his words, Dante talked to the former Alpha and freed Mina and Daya from the hunt. However, the two fairies decided to spend a week with Jo while a messenger was being sent to the fairy kingdom to have them picked up. Now she had to squeeze them into the shared accommodation. There were already three people in a single room, with the two fairies, it was going to be even more crowded.'Polly is going to kill me. And also, where the heck will I get a dress for the feast later, damn it', Jo wondered in frustration.As she neared the shared accommodation, she heard someone crying. Immediately she rushed inside to see Lucy bawling her eyes out.'What's wrong Lucy? Are you okay? Did som
DISCLAIMER: PLEASE AVOID S.EX SCENE IF YOU CANNOT READ DARK SCENES. *Same night of the feast*‘Daya puked on a guy she was kissing once’, Mina teased the pink fairy who saw rage and tackled her friend. Within seconds, the two fairies were engaged in a playful fight while Lucy watched on laughing. She felt bad remembering the earlier mistake and ruining the book for Jo. In fact, this was the first time Lucy had enjoyed something in her life. Jo had already changed her life so much for the better and she was grateful for that. Lucy knew she will probably ask for Jo’s forgiveness again even though Jo had already said it was okay. Afterall, Jo trusted her enough to share her secret. ‘Hey, Lucy’, Mina called her as the two fairies finally stopped fighting and straightened their hair and clothes.‘Hmmm, yes?’‘You should have totally seen the royal General earlier taking down the demons!’, Mina squeaked remembering Dante from the hunt ground. Daya shook her head up and down vigorously agr
Lucy's heart was hammering against her chest and she could hear herself palpitate. She walked slowly towards Jayden, who was watching her closely with his piercing emerald eyes and dark locks of hazel hair falling on his intimidating face. Once Lucy was within arms reach, Jayden pulled her towards him, making her sit on his naked lap. Lucy instantly blushed and tried to hide the redness in her cheeks. But Jayden stopped her hands from covering her face as he cupped her face gently. Lucy had never seen Jayden be gentle with anything in her life. He had always been the serious and conservative Alpha who would do anything for the pack's pride and name. Sure, he had many bed warmers but he always put pack business first, no matter what. Jayden saw Lucy's finger wound as he brought it close to his lips, placing light kisses on it, ''Be careful next time little mate. How can you be so clumsy every time?'. Lucy was conflicted with Alpha Jayden's changing personalities. One moment, he was t
It was quite incredible to see a royal legacy right in front of your eyes. Lucy only read about the Warrior packs and the Royal kingdom in the history book when she was a senior in high school. It traced all the way back to the moon goddess’s first creation when she gifted four descendant brothers with elemental powers: The fire, Ice, Wind and Sand. But peace never lasted long among the brothers as the great war broke for the fight of power. In the end, the Fire warrior pack came out as the undefeatable winner as the Ice Warrior pack was eradicated. The other two packs; Wind and Sand went on to become the neutral pack. Decades later, many small packs emerged and soon a rebellion brewed. The rebellion packs declared a war on the Fire Warrior pack who was the most powerful pack standing and was ruled by Alpha Ian then. The rebellion was followed by strange vampire attacks. It wasn’t clearly written in the history book after that, but it was mentioned that Alpha Ian’s mate, Sarah was mo
Disclaimer: Disturbing scene in the 'flash back' part. Please skip if you cannot read dark scenes. You have been warned!'Caleb? That silver haired royal general?', Jo asked in disbelief, wiping down the blanket with a cloth from the bed stand. She knew the tea stain was not going to come off easily. Sh.it'Yes, him. We just found out we were mates following an unfortunate incident last night. He accepted the bond and proposed to me. But I have decided to reject it', Lucy said, giving Jo some time to absorb the news. 'Lucy, mate bonds are so sacred for you, werewolves. I mean for 'us' werewolves', Jo nervously corrected herself. 'Why are you so intent on rejecting the bond?’.‘I know it is sacred for us Jo. But given my past accusations and everything, I don’t think I am on par with someone like Caleb’, Lucy replied, half-heartedly not revealing her full intention. She was doing this mainly to protect Jo from Jayden and his wrath. If she accepted Caleb and the truth came out, Jo was
It was day two of the royal visit in Dark Slayer Pack and so many things were happening too quickly. Jo needed some time to rewind and reflect. She did not remember what happened at the feast or how she woke up in her bed in the morning, clearly some one carried her there but who? She thought hard trying to remember from her jumbled and vague memory when it hit her. Sh.it. Dante! The memories of her crying and sobbing on Dante’s shoulders hit her like a bullet, she was embarrassed. How will she ever face the general seriously without being haunted from what she did last night?‘Jo!’, Lucy’s voice brought her back to earth. “You need to get ready quickly. Remember, we need to go check on General Dante and attend to his needs’. Jo groaned as she finally threw the tea stained cloth away and dragged herself off the bed. The last thing she wanted to do was face Dante. *‘Why are you hiding behind me?’, Lucy asked confused as they stood outside Dante’s guest room. ‘Oh no, I was just fix
It was total chaos in Dark Slayer Pack, the furious Alpha sent for the elders to be summoned from the holy Cathedral Shrine. It would take a couple of days for the elderlies to arrive however as the shrine was located very far away. Jayden would not hear it from anyone, not even the former Alpha. Dante was still locked in the dungeon where all the slaves were usually kept before they were paraded for the annual hunt. 'Son, let's not do things with a hot head. How about we release the general and have a proper civil conversation', the former Alpha tried talking some sense.'He will NOT be released. So, what if he is a general from the royal kingdom? Leo was not just the Gamma of this pack but also my childhood friend. So, with all due respect father, he will stay in that dungeon until I say otherwise', Jayden growled making the former Alpha take a few steps back. *'HAHAHA, so much for laying low', Caleb snickered at his friend who was behind the huge rusting bars. 'Why did you even l
Jo had been wandering the hallways of the demon kingdom, lost in her thoughts, when she found herself outside Victor's room. She hadn’t planned on visiting him, but something drew her to the door. She hesitated, her hand hovering just above the handle. She could sense something was wrong. The air around the door felt thick with a strange energy, almost suffocating.She heard a low, pained whimper from inside. Her heart clenched.Victor? Without thinking, Jo pushed the door open and stepped inside.The room was shrouded in darkness, but it wasn’t just the absence of light. This darkness felt alive, pulsating, almost like it was breathing. And there, in the middle of it, was Victor, doubled over in pain, his hands clutching his head.“Victor!” Jo’s voice trembled with concern as she rushed to his side. She could see his body trembling, sweat glistening on his brow. He looked up at her, his eyes a mixture of pain and something else—fear.“Jo…stay back,” he managed to gasp out between brea
Jo sat stiffly on the edge of the opulent bed, her gaze fixed on Belial. The dim light filtering through the heavy curtains cast long shadows across the room.Belial's presence suddenly became commanding, his dark armor and intense gaze making the room feel even colder. There was only seriousness in the air now.He took a deliberate step closer to Jo, his voice dropping to a low, grim tone. "There is something you need to understand about the demon kings, Jolene. Victor killed Hades because his madness turned to the point of no return. Hades wanted Sea kingdom's most precious weapon, and Victor had a change of heart after meeting you. However, I am now worried about what this means for Victor.The madness is a truth that haunts every ruler who sits upon the throne of the underworld."Jo’s heart quickened, her thoughts racing as she tried to grasp the gravity of Belial’s words. "What are you talking about? What truth?"Belial’s eyes, sharp and unwavering, met hers. "The madness. Every d
Victor stared at Jo dangerously. If looks could kill, Jo would be six feet deep already. Before the siren could decently cover herself in front of the crowd that was now gathering, Victor snapped his fingers, and instantly the warrior next to her started grasping for air, his hands around his neck as if something invisible was choking him, robbing him of air. 'Victor, stop', the siren pleaded for the warrior who she knew was probably a victim of Pat's evil plan. 'Fuck this Jo', the demon king mumbled. 'You care about this warrior so much?'. Jo knew it was a wrong move because the warrior's body suddenly went still. She knew he was dead, so she dared not look at the body lying next to her. Tears were welling up in her eyes, this was not how she imagined her 18th birthday to have been celebrated. Damn it. She did not even want to have a celebration in the first place. 'Everyone who dares lay their eyes on my soon-to-be bride will have it ripped out of their socket. OUT!', Victor
Victor did not know when and how this has happened but Jo was the only one he could think of every single day. Before he even realised, he had fallen hard for the siren. Jo’s voice that sounded like melodies had drawn Victor to her, and he had fallen for her enchanting voice, her vibrant red hair, and the way her eyes held the depths of the ocean. But now, as Victor’s words echoed through the night, Jo’s world shattered. His confession hung heavy in the air, like a curse that could never be undone. He had killed his own father—the reigning demon king— Jo’s voice trembled as she whispered, “Why, Victor? Why would you do such a thing?” His eyes, once filled with tenderness, now bore the weight of guilt. “Because I love you, Jo. More than my own life. The former King Hades had ordered me to kill the entire royal family of the sea world on the day we were supposed to be married.” Jo’s heart clenched. 'Why would Hades want such thing and to wait till the wedding day? If he wanted to, he
The island was chilly and breezy. Jo looked around and realised she was alone again. And then she heard that serenading sound that had been calling for her, yearning for her and haunting her. She wanted to know where it was coming from. It sounded so eerily familiar like she had heard it before. As she felt the soft shoreline sand beneath her bare foot, she knew she was getting close to that sound. It was coming from inside the Islands. But every time she tried to get closer, she would always…………Jo woke up panting. She had the same dream again. Ever since Belial’s attack, she had been having the same recurring dream of a serenading sound calling for her. But every time she tried to get close to it, she would wake up. Damn her luck.Not wasting any more time, she quickly got up and checked today’s date on a nearby table calendar. Her heart sank realizing that the day of the fairies’ departure was getting closer and closer. They were leaving in three days. It almost felt like a part of
'Marriage?', Lucy repeated her mate's words. Perhaps she misheard because none of this was making sense. Caleb massaged his temples and tried to maintain a calm posture. This was not like Caleb at all. He has always been the goofy type, and it felt weird to see him all so serious. 'Yes. Unfortunately, most Alphas have arranged marriages with other pack leaders to bring strong alliances, keep pure lineages, and build long-lasting relationships. I have been sworn to marry the daughter of Alpha Ramos from the Fawn pack'. Caleb chose his words carefully, knowing this would not be taken well.'Well, have a happy marriage life. I hope you have strong pups. Don't you dare dirty the pure Alpha lineage by considering someone like me, "Lucy said sarcastically and turned to walk away when Caleb yanked her right into his arms.'I don't care about the lineage, not one bit. You could be a vampire for all I care, and I would still love you and let you suck all of my blood', Caleb's words were makin
Suddenly there was no more running.No more sleeping with one eye closed.It was safe now. ...Jo slowly tried opening her eyes, she was finally discharged from the pack hospital and back to her guest room. Dante had been busy with his meetings and tightening the pack borders, but he would try his best to check in on her. She blushed thinking about the kiss they shared under the dome. Nothing more has happened ever since. Dante has really been respectful of her boundaries and giving her space.Jo was still walking on eggshells, not sure if this is really meant to be. Dante was married and that was the biggest barrier to everything right now. Even if he did not love Olivia or see her as his wife, they were still lawfully wedded. And Jo was pretty sure, Olivia would not take the news of her being Dante's fated mate well. Or maybe she already knew? Jo could not tell.At least she did not have to pretend with Dante anymore about being an omega. Infact, their mate bond was growing ever
Jo let out a nervous laughter, pretending to have not heard Dante. She quickly averted his gaze, trying to admire the beauty of the hospital walls. Dante just smirked, looking at Jo, who was trying to look oblivious. ‘So?’‘These walls are magnificent. White and pure and simplistic and.....’The Alpha king chuckled and nodded, quickly playing along with his mate. ‘I suppose you find them amusing since your odd likes open spaces more than enclosed walls’.‘I have no idea what you are trying to say?’, Jo’s voice quivered.‘You. Are. A. Siren’, Dante mouthed each word separately, and his hands squeezed hers tighter with each word.This was all so weird! Instead of feeling scared that her mate had found out, Jo had mixed feelings. She felt happy, excited, and a little bit relieved. It is as if a part of her wanted Dante to find out. ‘You are quite an eavesdropper’, Jo said in defeat, and tried to retract her right hand from the Alpha’s strong grip but to no avail. He just wouldn’
-Back in royal clinic- Jo inhaled a long breath, gathering more courage to tell the mother-daughter duo the next horrific detail of her past. Sarah, the former Queen, and Evelyn had been patiently listening to her past. Jo had yet to tell them about what happened on the day she turned 18, the day she was to wed Victor. But before she could go on, they were interrupted by a knock on the door. The former Queen frowned at the interruption, ‘Come in’. Olivia walked in gracefully, a fake smile on display. Her dark chestnut hair was shining as always. She curtsied before the former Queen, ‘Queen mother, you are back. Had I known of your arrival, I would have…..’ Before she could finish, Sarah cut her off, ‘We are quite busy here. Did you need anything, Olivia?’. Olivia appeared a bit stunned, but she quickly regained her perfect composure, ‘I just wanted to check in on Jolene as you know she is a guest here. I heard she was attacked yet again. Quite a troublemaker if you ask me’. There
