Natalia:

I never thought that I would dread going back to my mate as much as I did today.

His conversation with Crystal played in my head, over, and over again, and regardless of how busy I tried to keep myself; I kept finding myself going back to thinking about it.

The way he looked at me, and the way he’s been speaking to me since everything has happened with Ryan played in my head, and despite trying to keep my thoughts positive, I couldn’t help but feel insecure.

I laid my head on my desk as I knew that it was time to go back home. Half the company’s employees left already, and those who stayed behind still had work to do; however, it was me who was unable to function as I kept getting distracted whenever I tried to do so.

“Boss…” Kylie said, entering my office. She also had work to finish and was required to stay back to complete it before going home and calling it a night.

“Yes, Kylie?” I asked, raising my head to look at her. She entered the office carrying a tray of food, sl

I’m a bit curious, when did he promise Myla he’d never take her picture down? Her death was sudden and unexpected. Their was nothing to suggest they’d ever split up. So why would he have promised her?

    Blake:I kept my arm wrapped around Natalia as she lay on my chest. Her finger drew random patterns over my abdomen as I looped my fingers with her curls, knowing that she enjoyed the feeling.“What are you going to do about Ryan? Did you find any solution that would possibly help?” Natalia asked, looking up at me, breaking the comfortable silence. I sighed and shook my head, not knowing what to do in this situation either, and the more I thought about it, the more it hurt me. However, Damon and I have been searching for different solutions to try and fix what Drake did, and so far, we haven’t been lucky with any of them. Most of the magical creatures that were stated in the scrolls of our elders and historians hated dealing with witches who had dark magic, and it was for known reasons. “The doctors suggested that we inject him with something that would put him to sleep, and I know that we can’t keep him asleep forever. But he is struggling to keep up with everything, and I can see

    Natalia:“You want me to do what?” I asked Crystal who was expanding in size.“You are going to get on top of me. I am your dragon and you’re going to need to learn how to trust me” she said, motioning for me to get on top of her. She lowered her head for me to get on top, and looking back at my husband, he smiled and nodded, encouraging me. “You could easily drop me…”“And you could use wind to levitate your body” she said, stopping me “look, Natalia, I am your guardian, I am literally there to protect you; therefore, I won’t be harming you on purpose. If anything, I would be dying if you died. If I died, you would be losing your powers and a part of yourself, but your advantage, as a human, you would still be alive”“Crystal, I don’t want you putting that as an option. What happened with others would not be repeated with me; therefore, I don’t want you thinking that it would. But what I am more concerned about is the height and the fact that I am not experienced in what I’d be doin

    Blake: “You want me to call for the other Element Manipulators?” Natalia asked, frowning in confusion. I nodded, showing her a scroll that I’ve been reading through about this. Flashback:“Alpha, are you sure that we can put Luna Natalia under this much pressure? I know that she is strong enough to handle it, but how is she going to be able to withstand a witch’s hex when she needs to be trained to control her own powers?” Damon asked, reading through the scrolls as we tried to find a way to break the hex off Ryan. The two things that we found were to either kill the witch, and finding who she or he is would be almost impossible as we didn’t even know where the witches were hiding. They were outcasts who knew that they weren’t wanted around, but it seemed like my twin brother Drake had his own plans when it came to bringing them back, or at least, working with them for his own benefit. For now…“I know that Natalia can’t do this” I said, reading through another scroll that had a pi

    Natalia:It was a while into the night when Crystal decided to make an appearance. Her eyes avoided mine as she landed on the ground in front of us.I knew that she was still angry after our earlier fight; however, I was not going to please her over something that the two of us knew was a risk for her. I did not want to be put in a position where I would have to make such a difficult choice, because like my father, I would choose my mate over myself any day.“I do hope that you’re ready”“I am not, but we have no other choice than to try” I said, making the temperature drop around me as I started floating. Blake, who was standing one step behind me, crossed his arms over his chest, and I was thankful that we were already entering winter; otherwise, after Crystal’s little stunt earlier on the military base, and this drop, people would really think that Earth was being invaded by aliens.“Natalia, hold the temperature now, I will be casting the light. It would be a little hectic for you

    Blake:I kept my eyes on Ryan as he opened them. His heartbeat was calmer than it usually was, and looking at me, he frowned in confusion as he processed the fact that he was in the infirmary room.“Alpha?”“Ryan” I said, smiling, happy to have heard his voice without him fighting me for the first time in weeks. He sat up, shaking his head as he fought off his nausea, but I couldn’t help but wrap my arms around him, hugging him tightly. He hugged me back, and standing back, Natalia watched us in silence.“Luna, I was not aware of your presence, I apologize” Ryan said when I pulled away from him.“You needn’t worry, Ryan. You had us all worried about you, do you know that?” Natalia asked, crossing her arms over her chest as she took a step forward “but it's good to have you back”“What happened?” He asked, frowning at Natalia’s statement.“You really don’t remember, do you?”“Not at all. I remember going to Drake. The two of us worked together for a while and everything was actually fi

    Natalia:“Blake, you know that the last thing I want to do is see the man” I said, walking through the forest alongside my husband who had his arm around my waist, pulling me toward the empty arena where we knew that he was waiting for our presence.The forest moving to clear the path for our arrival told us that he was waiting for us to come, and knowing that he was, I got more annoyed with each step I took.“Baby girl, I know that you don’t want this, but what better chance do we have? If Drake is playing a nasty game, then we have to be prepared. I don’t know if anyone out there is against your grandfather and wants you as dead as they want him; therefore, I want you to at least be prepared for what we’re going to face. Yes, I know that it would be hard, and yes, I know that you are still angry with him; but we don’t know the whole story, we don’t know what kind of pressure he was also under, and no, I am not defending him, I am just stating facts” Blake said as we reached the empt

    Blake: I kept holding my wife’s hand as she shook her leg, listening to what Nikita had to say. The fact that we both knew that there were people out to kill the two of us didn’t make anything feel or seem any better, and knowing that my wife was in danger only made my wolf grow a lot more protective over her. “Throughout centuries, element manipulators and witches were forbidden from getting married, and it was due to this prophecy” she said, handing us a scroll. She had been searching for something for the past few minutes, and I could only assume that she found it. Natalia took it from her, and putting it on the table between the two of us, I recognized the language that it was written in as ancient Latin. “A child was to be born…” I read, looking at my wife who nodded at me to proceed “out of the blood of a witch and manipulator. That child would be both the reason for the union between magic creatures, and the end of dark magic…” “And that is not something that they want” Ni

    Natalia:My head throbbed as I opened my eyes.My heart ached, and looking around the room, I couldn’t help the tears that fell from my eyes as I recalled what my grandfather, Alexander, told me.The risk that I was putting everyone through, my mate, and even my dragon…I understood now why my father chose to let his powers go. The man was fighting to protect himself and his kids. It was also why he fought to keep me hidden, and when he gave me to an orphanage, something must have been wrong if he did so. My heart ached, and sitting up, I looked at Crystal who was curled up by the fireplace. My little dragon must have been worried sick about what was to come, especially after what we heard and after our argument at home. “You don’t need to be scared, Crystal” I said, assuring her. My dragon jumped upon hearing my voice, and turning to look at me, I could swear that she took a step back despite me not moving from my place.“It was how he made him freeze before” she said, looking down

    Blake:I smiled as I wrapped my arm around my wife, guiding her toward the flower field just like the vision that I showed her.Though I had to admit, the last thing that I expected was for her to be pregnant or the two of us as injured, but I knew that it was now or never. And I wasn’t going to lose the chance to make her the happiest woman on the planet."You actually had them making the garden?” Natalia asked and I smiled before connecting my lips with hers. I bit her bottom lip, pulling it gently before resting my forehead against hers as I pulled away from the kiss. “I take it as a yes?”“A thousand times,” I said, watching as she turned around to look at the flowers. The smells of roses, lilies, orchids, and jasmines filled the air around us, and I couldn’t help the smile that formed on my lips when she turned around to face me as I kneeled down on one knee. It was something that I dreamed of, but I didn’t know how things were going to be. But I knew one thing, I wanted to be a

    Natalia:I frowned as we entered the room to find Myla dead on the ground with a knife dug deep in her chest.“Blake?” I asked, voicing out of my confusion and he shook his head.“It was the right thing to do, and she would have done it to herself anyway.” He said, and I frowned in confusion. I got inside his head and my heart dropped as I heard and saw what he was referring to. “Blake, that means?” I asked and he shook his head.“I don’t know how accurate it is, but I know that things are going to be complicated from here.” He said, and I looked at Ryan who was quiet throughout the whole thing. I knew that him being the Alpha’s current beta, he would be lost in so many thoughts, but right now, we needed to know whether or not they needed our help. “They are in their graves…”“We are just going to have to dig them out,” Blake said, stopping me. He frowned as he looked at the door behind me and it wasn’t until screams echoed through the walls that I frowned. I went to rush toward the

    Blake:My heart raced against my ribcage as different monitors kept beeping. I squeezed my eyes tightly before forcing them to open, reminding myself of my ability to use my motors.However, that didn’t go as well as I planned for it to as I found myself squinting my eyes shut, trying to avoid the light that was in the room.“Blake?” My mum’s voice filled my ears, and though I was hurt by her and dad, I couldn’t describe the pain that I felt because of them, I couldn’t help but feel thankful for her presence.“Natalia?” I said, shaking my head as I tried finding her. My heart raced and I couldn’t help but frown when I saw her laying beside me, her chest rising and falling with each breath that she took. She didn’t have an oxygen mask, unlike the one that I had, but I could see the bandages that were almost all over her body.“She is just asleep right now. The doctors have instructed that she gets as much rest as she can as she would need to regain her strength after what happened.” M

    Natalia:My heart raced as I looked at the demon who formed in front of me.The fact that she was burning the room that was beside me, the room that had my mate inside, made my heart race. And that was something that I knew she was going to try and play with, my fear, anger, and worry. But that wasn’t something that I wanted to give her. “I do believe that it would make things faster if the two of you choose to give up.” She said, her voice sending chills down my spine as I looked at my mate who was trying to stay as far away from the fire. I tried controlling it, but nothing seemed to work. The fact that I knew that Jaiden, the man who was supposed to be my father, was fighting his own dad at the podium scared me. If anything, the fact that they were a father and son getting into this was something that broke me inside, but I knew now that no matter what I was going to say or what I was going to do, nothing would matter. It wasn’t even about me and my husband, these witches were ai

    Blake:I growled as I saw my brother shifting, no longer able to contain himself as his instincts took over.The portals revealed the manipulators that were summoned by my wife, and I couldn’t help but find myself growing proud of her strength. To say the least, I knew that she was going to grow a lot stronger now that she knew who she was and what she was capable of.Drake let out a low growl, and I couldn’t help but recall the fact that the man wasn’t even in his head. Whatever was going on, I knew that the witches were having some sort of control on him, and though it pained me to consider, I knew that I had to end this one way or the other.Natalia looked at me and I nodded in assurance as I watched Crystal take flight. The fact that she fought against the control of the witch made me proud of how strong her bond grew with Natalia despite the short period.I took a step toward my brother, my stance ready for his attack as I saw Ariana and Riya, the two who pretended to be on our s

    Natalia:My heart raced against my chest as I felt my dragon being close and yet so far to reach.I could tell that Crystal was here somewhere, I just didn’t know where she was.Blake wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me closer to him as we entered the podium. No one really bothered to approach us, and I knew the reason; everyone now believed that we were either cursed, or they thought that they were going to watch us die.I looked at mum who was standing in the center of the podium along with Blake’s parents and the two of us frowned before being approached by them. Almost everyone else had their families waiting for them. Mum wrapped her arms around me, pulling me in for a hug before I could say a word, and though I didn’t understand her reason, I couldn’t help but feel my chest ache.This was the first hug that she has given me in years.She pulled away to look me in the eye before running her finger over my cheek, clearly in pain because of what was happening to me.

    Blake:My chest ached as I found myself waking up beside my wife on a field of grass.Flowers were sprawled almost everywhere around us, and for a second, I could swear that I was back at the house, OUR garden. But I could also tell that it was different, this was a place that we knew, but it wasn’t ours, not yet anyway. Natalia frowned and shook her head in question before I got up from the floor. She sat up and pinched the bridge of her nose before turning to look at me. I watched as she stood up and looked around, taking the scene that was in front of her.Birds flew around and the sound of water could be heard from a distance, but I couldn’t catch a scent to let me know where I was, nor could I define the image that we were seeing. “Are you in my head again?” She asked, and I shook my head, making her frown. “Not that I know of,” I said, only to frown when I saw Alexander and Nikita standing in front of us. The two of us were wearing complete white outfits, my beauty wore a whi

    Natalia:“How the fucking hell did you manage to get out of this one?” Riya asked, glaring at us. I smiled at the woman as my mate tightened his arm around me.To say that I was at peace was an understatement to what I was feeling. Hell, the man was not only giving me the love that I wanted and desired, but he was giving me the contentment that I knew I wouldn’t find elsewhere if their lives were taken for me to find it.“I believe that it doesn’t concern you, especially considering the fact that you too managed to pass.” Blake said, smiling at her. I knew that he was also feeling not only content, but at peace. His wolf has been purring lowly for my ears and I couldn’t help the smile that was plastered on my face regardless of how hard I tried wiping it off.Hell, as hard as this was, this day was the best of my life.“You two are playing the rules way too much for my liking.” Drake said, entering the hall where we were standing. Not even he could bother me tonight, that was one thi

    Blake: I wrapped my arm around my mate once I’ve put my clothes back on, smirking at the fact that she managed to conceal my nudeness in front of the audience, not that it mattered to me anyway. It wasn’t like I would be having anything that they haven’t seen or don’t have, but it proved to me that she simply wanted the sight for her eyes. “Are you okay?” She asked, handing me a stone cup which she formed before filling it with pure water. I smiled and took a sip of it before handing her the cup to drink. She smiled at my concern and took a sip of it before handing it back to me. “You need it more than I do right now, and a sip is more than enough for me.” I kissed her forehead before drinking the rest of the water, not wanting to break her word before turning to the final round of the day. The Forest of Doom was engraved on the ground and both Natalia and I rolled our eyes as we read the words. The last thing that we needed right now was to deal with such a fact, and considering
