Luke’s POV“You like her don't you?” My sister's voice broke through my train of thought and for a while, I wanted to pretend that I didn't know who she was talking about. I pretended I didn't know.“What are you going on about Carolyn?” My voice was nonchalant. I didn't want to indulge in any of her nonsense.“You know what I am talking about - who I am talking about” She deadpanned.“Don’t you have better things to do than to stand there and ask me if I like Sara or not?”She gave me a look that said “I told you so” It was only then I realized how much I had messed up.“I didn't even mention her name and you already know who I am talking about. What a coincidence” she hummed.“You are insane” My comeback was weak and I knew Carolyn wouldn't let me go easily.“Am I? I don't think I am lying. You like her” Her voice was firm. Her grey eyes which we inherited from our mother that were very much similar to mine met me as if daring me to deny it.“I don't like her” I wasn't lying, right?

Luke's POVI did not see Carolyn in the hours that followed. I believed that she was staying away from me- avoiding me and I felt like a jerk. How could I hurt my sister like that?“Sir?” One of the guards called out to me, jolting me out of my thoughts.“What is it, Albert?”“Herschel is back and he's asking for you”That was all I needed to hurry to the courtroom where the tall blonde skinny man who always wore black stood with an impatient look on his face as if he couldn't wait to tell me what he found.We locked eyes for a moment before Hershel let out a sigh. “Greetings Sir”The last time expected him, he didn't show up and I knew how difficult it was to sneak around.“Herschel, a surprise to see you here. How have you been since our parting?”He gave a nod in reply. “Good and you, Sir, how have you been? We were not able to visit you as much as we would like to, I am sure you know why”I nodded my head.Herschel and two of his men were our spies, the only link we had with the r

Luka's POVI had dreams where I saw her more than often, dreams where she came back to me at night in the middle of the day. Her presence in my dreams was like a ghost, and so I thought it would never end. But that night… It wasn't my mates haunting presence that woke me. Instead, I woke up because of a sick twisted feeling in my guts that I couldn't place . A gut feeling that made me think that there was something wrong with my mate. Something… That didn’t fit with what my mate looked like. It didn’t fit with how much I loved her. And even if it did, what on earth could be causing this feeling? I yearned for Emily at that moment more than I ever had in my life. She was my heart. My everything. My only reason why I even went through the motions of getting out of bed at three in the morning, which was more of an obligation than anything else. If there was someone I’d rather die than face at that moment, Emily was definitely at the top of that list. She was all I wanted. All I though

Luke’s POV“Now I need you to pick up your swords and I know it seems a little heavy. I will demonstrate the technique with one of the guards here and you'll watch and repeat the same with the other guards. Each child gets a new guard, after that, you'll try it with yourselves“ The female trainee explained.We were going to teach them how to defend themselves. It was a plan I thought was necessary, we needed it.The children looked really nervous, She smiled as she watched their reactions.“Do you understand?” she asked them.“Yes, Laura” they chorused.Laura smiled again satisfied with her work, bowing curtly to me before making her way to get her sword. Moving to the center of the gathering. Everyone was looking at her expectantly, waiting for her to move as well. She just stared at them for a while before beckoning on the head of the royal guards.He was a huge man, easily towering over Laura. He nodded once and walked to stand in front of her as if ready to catch her if needed.

Emily’s POV“So we have to wait for them to come to us?” Carolyn asked as we sat eating.More like they were eating. I couldn't find the strength in me to lift up a spoon, the fight earlier had weighed me down and everything felt so heavy I could barely move. Even though I had managed to get off the bed after I'd vomited my guts out, the dizziness had made it difficult to see where to place my feet and I still couldn't sit upright right now, much less stand up or even walk.But no one knew I had vomited when we got back, I didn't want to attract any attention to myself that way. Not with what was going on at the moment. At least not yet. So the vomiting had seemed to be a good excuse. Hopefully, no one would be too concerned by it because I really didn't want anyone to be worried about me or try to help me right now. “Yes,” Luke answered. “I heard the attack is taking its toll on them and they don't even know who their enemies are” “Oh,” Carolyn said, looking away from her lunch.

Emily’s POV “Let me in Sara” Carolyn’s voice was as loud as her fist that was banging against my door. She was probably getting agitated but that was the least of my concern. I really needed to talk to someone about it because I felt like if it didn’t stop soon I would explode into a thousand pieces like those old broken-down automobiles you could always find at the bottom of the ocean. You never know when your life is going to take a turn for the worse, or just for the better but right now I couldn’t think about what to do. She kept on knocking so hard it sounded like she was hammering on wood from a distance, probably trying to break down my door. I wasn’t even sure if I would open it until eventually she would give up and go away. Maybe she wouldn’t come back at all. I wish someone would tell me that the man I loved was okay and that… “I know you can hear me, Sara, open the damn door and stop being difficult”. Damn. With one last sigh, I went to unlock the door. When the do

Luka’s POVHow could they? we were literally the same kind! Why? We were literally the same kind so why wouldn't the Lycans lend a helping hand to us in our time of distress? I was angry and frustrated, but I wasn’t going to just sit down and accept it. And you know what else, I would never do that. No matter how much pain we were in. I refused to let this be my last battle. The one thing I have always known about myself was that I would not give up until all of these monsters were gone for good.The Lycan King had laughed in my face, belittling my efforts for an alliance and then he ordered his guards to see me out.Who could imagine the effrontery? I, King Luka, kicked out of the doors like some common criminal? Well, I wasn’t going to take that lying down. I refused to let my people die when I could do something to help them. I needed to turn my anger somewhere else so my fist connected against a tree. It didn’t break, but it certainly did leave a bruise. And that was alright bec

Emily’s POVEverything was just so difficult for me. I knew that this was going to be the hardest year of my life but still… It wasn’t only that I felt like I had failed/ been a failure all my life, but also that I felt like everything around me was going wrong all because of one person… one single person who I could never stop thinking about and couldn’t seem to forget… I sighed, looking up at the sky where there were no clouds, no sun, no anything at all. I tried to keep it all in but I couldn't. Each day, I'd eavesdrop on Luke’s conversations with Carolyn and everyone else in the community. I needed to know what was happening in the outside world, I needed to know if the King was fine - I wanted him to be fine, I needed him to stay alive.I was ashamed to say that I thought about him more than I should, constantly when I slept. In fact, most nights now I lay awake and stared at my ceiling wishing he was here, I wanted him to kiss me again, to hold me in his arms. I wanted so mu
