Edwin’s POV
I stared blankly at Azian's door, then glanced down at my watch. The bastard was still asleep at this time. I could smell him from here so I knew he was in, and I could practically hear his deep breathing indicating that he was definitely still in bed. Not asleep though, his breathing would have been a second longer.
“He’s still in there?” Alessia asked, walking up the stairs. I sighed shoulders falling, “yes he is.”
Alessia grinned, eyes shining, “Do you want me to get the bucket?” she asked. My head rolled in her direction raising an uninterested eyebrow. She rolled her eyes huffing, “well, you’ll have to wake him up, doesn’t he have that dinner to get to with Khloe?” she asked, before glancing down at her watch, “it's 11.”
I took a deep breath out, walking towards the door. I paused tuning to face Alessia who was right behind me, “Give me a moment,” I grumbled at her ever feisty nature. Her eyes narrowed on me, b
KAYA'S POV. I watched the houses move past us as my aunt turned the car to the next street. The day seemed cold, the sun was blocked out by the clouds, and if anything it felt like the whole world knew where we were headed and was begging me not to go. Well it was too late now, in exactly five minutes we would be pulling up to that house/ My fingers played with my curly soft hair, as I rested my head against the car seat, my mind rushing back to my dream. I had to be going crazy... These dreams were so realistic I could swear they were, but I always woke up in the end so they have to be. There was no other explanation for them. "What are you thinking about?" Ally asked from behind me. She was seated alone in the back of the car, whilst I was in the front with Aunt Lily. "Honey if you don't want to go just say it and I'll turn this car right around. Lord knows we are walking into the lion’s den" Aunt Lily replied with a
Azians POV I parked the car right ousted Khloe’s villa, still feeling as tired as hell, warn out from everything and anything. It seemed every little thing was bothering the hell out of me today. My mood was dark all the time and I really wanted to hit something. Frustration seemed to ooze out of everything that I did. Kaya had not known what she had done when she sent me away. It seemed like she was a drug, one that Alpha had taken only twice but couldn't stop bitching about. It was strange because I was used to being so worn out but since I had tasted what it meant to be whole, being taken from that source again was worse than the first time. I would have much rather curled back in bed, but my room was a wreck and Abigail was yelling her head off at me for ruining the house. Even with magic, it would take some time to repair. Omega would have been done in a few minutes but he wasn’t exactly in the mood to repair anything, so Abigail would have to do it.
Kaya’s POV "Kaya, Isn’t it?" Azian asked me. My eyes fluttered up to him, feeling enchanted by them, my heart beating softly within its cage. He was really talking to me, like the flesh. He really knew who I was, he knew my name. I don’t know why these were the first thoughts that rummaged my brain. I was feeling nervous and my heart refused to ease itself and give me a break. My body stiffened and I knew there was no way to avoid him. It would be much too weird if I didn't look at him for the whole dinner much less say a word. I just had to keep reassuring myself that everything that had been happening the past two nights was not real, no matter how lifelike they had seemed It had all been a dream. Nothing like that could happen in real life. My eyes steadied on that gorgeous face of his and watched as that faint familiar smirk appeared on his lips. Almost like a taunt. The moment I looked at him was like I was back to
Abigail watched the two people in front of her curiously, trying to block out the sound of Ena sipping her coffee. Her gaze zeroed in on the couple that was sitting a few tables away from them right by the window of the coffee shop, conversing deeply with each other. “See how they keep touching each other?" Ena asked leaning back in her chair, the taste of coffee lingering on her lips as she patted her lips dry with a napkin. Anna’s gaze shifted from the couple to Ena before refocusing on the couple. She noticed the love in their eyes, similar to a one she had once experienced years ago. "That's Marianne and Drakel, a werewolf couple" Mariah explained, "They come for the meetings at times. See Marianne is a rare hybrid, half-witch half-wolf, and Drakel is her mate. That’s what makes them unique." "But the history is not of importance" Ena began eyeing her little sister calmly, she turned back to Anna And Abigail who were seated opposite them, "I know
Abigail’s eyes were set attentively on the pancakes she was making, flipping them over until their sides were a golden brown, switching over to the next plate where she had scrambled eggs frying on a pan next to it. With a satisfied hum, she took them out of the stove, before placing a full plate of breakfast before Edwin Edwin grinned at the sight ignoring Alessia usual taught, after all, she didn't have a dragon to feed. "Thank you, Abigail,” "Orion's got to eat something,” She coed brushing past Anna who place an equally large cup of coffee before him Anna sighed, satisfied with the setup before checking the time on her watch, glancing upstairs, “where’s Azian? If he takes any longer he will have to miss breakfast and head straight to school," she huffed, placing a hand on her waist. Edwin paused as he savored the taste of chocolate-dipped pancakes, " hmm, let me check on him,” he offered reluctantly ignoring Orion who was begging him to co
Kaya’s POVI reached for my towel, wrapping it around my body, and then dried my hair with the other towel, before towering it up and walking out of the room. After I changed into my pajamas, I ventured into Texting Ally for a while, before quitting and deciding it was high time to rest.Sleep came easily tonight. I slept well. I think I vaguely remembered the sound of faint rattles across my windowpane but I believe it was just the wind, my mind foggy with sleep, yawning into my pillow, turning over.The sun came up the next day and just like that it was Mr. Tuesday.I brushed past the usual swarm of students to the lunch table sitting next to Ally who was nose deep in a book, "Still reading about Lycans?” I chuckled placing my bag beside me, “You've never been the same after we went to legions house," I replied tacking a fry off her plate.She looked up at me with a faint smile before it was quickly erased, her eyes narrowing to
AZIANS POV There was only one good thing about wearing these large shades today. Being able to look at her, to watch her every move, without worrying about whether Edwin, Alessia, or Khloe would notice. The moment we had stepped out of the car when we arrived on school grounds, Alpha immediately picked up her scent, my eyes immediately flashing to the spot where her scent came strongest, watching as she entered the school building. My jaw clenched, watching her walk through the halls on her way to her first class until she disappeared from view. My mind was an unstable mess of ticks, unable to sit still or talk, just a constant pounding in my head until first periods were over and I was finally able to see her head to the cafeteria with her little human friend Ally, and probably would have stared at her there for the whole hour if it wasn't for the fact that Khloe suggested we go to the nearest restaurant and eat there. Somethi
Legions POVI stomped into my mansion in fury, eyes searching around the place for that bloody bastard, “Caleb!" I yelled watching as some obviously deranged maid run into the next room trying in vain to get out of my line of sight, maybe the one good thing that happened today.From the airy silence that came to greet me, I knew all the other Lycans had already sensed Xeric’s fury and my wrath from the moment I had stepped back onto this property. it had become a routine for them I noticed, sometimes I wondered if they had alarms that rang whenever they sense me coming so that they could hide. Not that I blamed them, no one wanted to be in the presence of their Alpha whilst I was in this mood.Xeric was angry, angry that he was taken away from his mate. I searched for the bloody guardian that had called earlier and told me to immediately come back to the mansion. His tone sounded urgent and I hoped for his seek the issue was of dire importance. I had
------TEASERMy eyes traveled around the dark shadows of the throne room, aware of how of the steady beat of my heart, thumping deep inside me. My hand gripping the helm of the fire sword tightly.She is here. Alpha Stated anxiously on edge, Omega spread his magic around us feeling every corner of the stone walls, and the large pillars that held up the throne room."Azian?" A familiar voice whispered, but loud enough to leave an echo, causing my eyes to strain through the darkness, my golden lenses scanning the room until it rested on the outline of a rough fallen figure covered by crossing shadows as it sat at the feet of the throne."Kaya!" I called out immediately wanting to reach her, "Don't!" She yelled back her hand stretching out into the straying moonlight, and I faltered back when I saw the dark veins whispering inside her like poison, as she immediately pulled her hand back, a slight whimper escaping her lips.Edwin's hand c
Edwin watched Azian pace up and down in the kitchen worriedly, his frame was rigid and his jaw was clenched, worry lines all over his face. He had tried to speak before but Alpha had made it clear they didn't want to talk. He was seemingly still mad at him for not telling him about Legion. "Will you stop worrying? Kaya will be alright. You know Abigail knows what she's doing right?" He asked him. He only received a growl from Alpha completely shutting him up, his fiery golden eyes daring him to say another word. Edwin looked down at the counter, holding his tongue as Azian went back to pacing but it was only a few minutes later when he spoke again, "Seriously, you're giving me a headache, stop with the pacing, try to relax. " he tried again this time instantly regretting it. "DO NOT ASK ME TO BE CALM!" Alpha barked, his eyes glowing brightly. "Okay, okay, okay," Edwin replied quickly. Alpha pausing for a second before Azians t
Lillian paced in Kaya's room watching as Anna fluffed Kaya's pillow, relaxing her in her bed, the light burn on her shoulder, glowing brightly before disappearing as the dragon snorted. The doorbell suddenly rang and Aunt Lily froze, "that's her, that's got to be her,” she said full-on panicking, "what should I tell her? She won't believe anything I say! I'm screwed!" She grunted biting her lip, "if I tell her about witches and Lycan and dragons she will know I've lost my mind! And she wouldn't be far from the truth because I feel like it-" "Relax," Anna said rubbing her shoulder, as the doorbell rang again, Liam stood up, “Let’s just tell her Kaya isn't feeling well that’s it, she doesn't need to worry herself too much, at least not now," he said walking toward Lillian, "Come on, Gabrielle’s waiting." He said before heading out the door in a calm cool and collected manner. Lillian watched him shocked for a moment before she turned back to Anna, "you
"It's official," Liam began as he walked into the house with Lillian and Ally by his side, meeting the blank stares of the witches before him. "She's gone, poof! No trace of the witch! Not even her daughter! It's like she never was, even the pictures of her are missing,” Lillian said, "Good Morning,” she added looking around at the group, her eyes falling, and voice tripping at their expression, "no sign of Kaya and Azian yet?" She asked. Ena shook her head, "two days and still nothing,” she paused glancing over at them, "and of course Stephania won't be found, I'm sure she was gone long before we thought of her. She might not even be in this realm anymore." "Realm?" Liam echoed. Abigail ignored the question standing up, "Two days and no sign of Azian or Kaya, I'm getting worried." "W-what if they never come back?" Ally said, finally voicing the one fear she was afraid of "Don't say that, they’ll come back,” Lillian snapped back gl
The air seemed dark and stale, every Lycan in the vicinity had made themselves as scarce as they could if not called upon by their King. It was a dark day and no one wanted to be in the presence of Zerth at the moment. King Damian looked down at his son, his jaw clenched at the state of him, watching as he laid there unconscious, no sign of recovery in the long run, as would have happened had it been a mere cut or a stab like before. This time his face stuck in a painful expression that even if he hadn’t as much as opened his eyes yet, King Damian could feel Xeric howl deep within Legion, the pain a tingling sensation in his ears, his fists hard and clenched tightly, unable to take his eyes off the state of his son. The Dark covers were laid above him, stopping just below his shoulders and the large curtains were drawn to shield him from the sun. No one was allowed to see the Feared Prince of Lycan in this state. King Damian feared even he was never meant to see his
KAYA'S POV I gasped out suddenly realizing I had barely been breathing through that whole ordeal, "w-what was that, Azian?" I asked slowly, my heart beating soundly. "It's our bond" he began softly, "or do you mean that it's a dragon?" He asked again a little confused obviously. I turned to him sharply, overwhelmed "what do you mean bond?!" I asked my voice rising by the minute. He raised an eyebrow as if accepting some sort of challenge, a slight smirk on the corner of his lips "Bond Kaya, You like me don't you?" He asked. I huffed out at the sudden question, before shaking my head, "Azian I don't understand any of this! None of it is making sense to me? Why did you bite me?" He rubbed my shoulder, leaning forward, his lips skimming my neck causing my heartbeat to rise, his h
Kaya’s POVI shot up gasping for air, my head a buzzing mess and my heart thumping fast like it had just run a marathon. I tried to adjust my breathing, blinking fast as the blurry world around me suddenly took up a better shape.Light Blue walls came to my vision, my headache clearing slowly. I blinked again as if in a haze, eyes trailing around the room. It was very large which made me think it was definitely not my room.My eyes came into contact with a shadow by the window, running out of breath for a second, the sun's rays blocking his face from view. My breathing was low as I stared at it before a figure crossed my mind and a name to match it."Azian?" I whispered, my eyes squinting to see the form.It moved only slightly, its vo
"MOTHER!" Khloe screeched super speeding up the stairs, "you won't believe- Mother?" She asked as she spotted her mother lying on the floor. Panic flooded through her as she raced toward her, black dust covering the floor her mother was lying on. "Mother?!" She repeated as she crouched beside her. She was completely motionless. ***********Stephania suddenly woke up to find herself in a chair, her eyes shooting open, her gaze landed on her daughter. "Thank heavens!" Khloe said putting down the Smokey piece of sage she had in her hand. "T-The Spell, it g-gone" Stephania said looking at Khloe "What happened to your mother?" Khloe asked as Stephania rose to her feet. "I was over the box the one with the soul spell and it suddenly began to leak, blood, " she began looking at herself in both wonder and shock before turning to her daughter, "Then it just exploded and I felt like, it had taken some power out of me, with one strong punch, I
Liam listened to it all like it had been a movie at the back of his mind, memories flashed back as everything was explained. He had been used, taken away from those he loved, without a second thought. But that wasn't the worst part, his daughter, his life, had been taken from him. Lilian had held his hand through it all and he was glad she did although it looked like she was this close to bursting. "He's a dragon? The boy who was dating Khloe.” He repeated trying to let it sink in. "Yes, "Abigail replied,” dragons are shifters, they have a humanoid version unless of course the cursed ones or rogues simply put" she explained noticing his confusion, “And he was only dating Khloe because he thought she was his mate. Much like you, he was also under a spell, only one much more powerful," Abigail explained to him as Lillian took a sip of her hot coffee. "And a mate is more like a soul mate?" "In the
