She was born prematurely and with a twisted spine, she was belittled among everyone in the pack , she was the weakest in the pack.She was a disgrace most of all because she couldn't shift when she was 18 making matters worse for her . On her 26th birthday and on a full moon she shifted and found out the future Alpha was her mate. He was the next Alpha - strong and respected . It was a pairing that could never happen. He would be challenged ,an alpha has to be feared and people ought not to see him as weak.
View MoreDEREK I never knew being the Alpha of a pack can be this strenuous . Dad usually does it effortlessly, he carried everyone's burden like he was born for the role . Meanwhile I was here being worn out , but I couldn't get tired because Ava needs me more than she needs anyone else . We were literally running around the pack , until Ava looked ready to drop from exhaustion. After a lot of coaxing, I managed to convince her she needed some rest. It took a lot of work , everyone was on a very high alert about whether Sabrina would come back. Ava still needed to release the magic to the goddess , but one thing after another just kept coming up. To where it was now almost three in the morning. We were stopping at the pack house where we could all keep close. I think that was the only way she would settle, at least hopefully a little bit.By the time I got her to our room , she was pretty much asleep on her feet. Adrenaline had been running that high , she was now crashing. We all were. Bu
Once we were behind the door , it took a while for them all to become coherent. They were dazed and foggy , and weak. Some could hardly even stand. They'd been laid down for so long , I was surprised they even remembered how. " We need to get them some food and water down here , they may even need a doctor ", I said, worriedly, watching them. " Let's wait to see how they react first before we put a doc in the room with them " Derek said from behind me. " They're human Derek , what can they do if you have warriors standing guard " I tried to reason with him. Well I was the emotional one and Derek was the logical one so definitely we would clash here and there . " I'm going to go back to the hospital. Do you want me to send a doctor down here ? "Vee asked us . I was about to answer yes , but Derek spoke first. " Hold the doctor , but will you go ask Adrian if he will arrange for food and drinks to be brought down, please Vee ", she looked at him a little fearful. The concept of her goi
The women and concubines we took from the castle had these gloomy looks on their faces like they would be gone anytime soon , I actually felt an urge to release them but I don't work on my own here even though I'm the alpha of alphas I can't skip the authority figures in my life, and honestly I'm greatly for people around me , they help correct my head when I'm about acting irrationally." Can we even remove the spell put on them ? " I asked Nimue . Looking at all the immobile bodies through the cell door was creepy. It made shivers run down my spine just being down here. " We should be able to , but some spells can be tricky. It can be hard to undo another witch's spell. At least for us , I don't want to keep tapping into the moon goddess's magic. The quicker we give it back the better". I heard some shouting further down the hall. The alpha and Derek were talking to someone through the door. Walking over , I went to see what the fuss was about. Getting closer, I heard the one voice
" Nimue, I need them back. Let's just go after her now. We have your magic. I can feel the strength of it running through my veins. We can kill her ourselves ", I said to her while I paced through the room. I could feel Derek's eyes tracking me and I was doing my best to block my thoughts from him. He wouldn't agree with this. " And for good reason he wouldn't. "Ava, What have I been saying this whole time? I have always run into things alone , not relying on others. For me to stay, I have to prove that I no longer need this magic. Not all of it anyway. To go to her now and deal with her ourselves, that will prove the balance keepers right. We need to give the magic back and deal with her with what's left and with our mate and family and friends. Ava , I don't want to have to leave again" she said sadly.I groaned inwardly. " If we give it back now, she will kill them ", I told her. " She won't know , Ava , I think you see us as giving it back, as we will be weak again. We are the tru
"You mean that's not Adrian?" . I asked and Ava shook her head . "We need to go". She clapped her hands again and as soon as she got back , we were surrounded by everyone at the pack including Adrian . He was standing in front of me . "What the hell is going on?" I asked Ava . "We didn't have a choice. When she took you away we began to come up with different plans , and different ideas were coming up . Then Seth brought up the Idea of us distracting her while I went and got Nimue's magic." As I was trying to get everything she was saying, I noticed she was looking at me , from head to toe ,and the next minute I saw that I was putting on boxers ."Sabrina will figure everything out soon , she would know it's Seth and not Adrian and I fear for his life . She had said she wanted me to get the magic , what does that even mean ? She had Fay. Fay shook her head . It was as if I was dreaming because why did no one seem bothered about Sabrina's sister Fay standing with us . I think I pretty
DEREK The environment around the cave didn't look like how Ava and I left it . It was now looking more scary and shady , like Sabrina had visited the cave more often . Sabrina's presence gave this bad energy vibe. For someone who doesn't get scared easily, the bad energy was having an effect on me and it was weighing me down. Runner my wolf was howling seriously in my mind , it made it difficult for me to focus . She definitely had plans to break all my barriers and enter into my mind, that's what she always does .She stood leering at me , her smile evil and malicious. She was really winding me up. She had taken the spell off that held my body frozen , and replaced it with shackles around my wrists and ankles that were attached to the wall. They must be spelled with something too, because I had been trying to shift for the last hour we had been here , and had no luck. Runner was going ballistic inside of me. "Now let's try again to get into that head of yours shall we? I believe t
AVAWoh Woh Woh. How did I even do that? I don't even know any spell Nimue had actually taken over. I wouldn't have known how to do that. I would have been virtually helpless. This new me is giving what it should give . It's like I'm on high alert and very sensitive. Nimue too , it's like all the powers she had had advanced by two and it was awesome. I watched as she disappeared . I was about thanking the moon goddess when I saw her re-appear behind Derek. Her hand wrapped around his body and, in the blink of an eye , my world had disappeared. She had taken him. Nimue had stopped whatever spell she had been saying thinking she had gone. But she hadn't. She had just moved. Chaos broke out as the future alpha was taken. Adrian's bonds that held him slipped off , as he stumbled forward to his knees. Vee went running up to him. And even though he didn't shun her , you could tell that he didn't want her to be so close. Meanwhile, I stood watching it all frozen , unmoving. Like if I didn'
DEREK I definitely felt bad for Adrian and Vee . I remember when we were still teenagers how Adrian and I usually talked about treating our mates when we finally met them . Adrian for one was more calm than I was , so I expected that he would treat his mate with more princess treatment than me . Now Sabrina has taken away Adrian's opportunity to treat his mate the way he had envisioned it . I feel very sorry for him . But Ava was my mate and she was my main concern and protection went to her. Ava looked up at me after Vee had walked off with an expectant look. " What ? " I asked her and she rolled her eyes. " Go follow him " she told me and I shook my head. "I am not leaving your side, while ever that crazy bitch is on the loose " I told her and her eyes narrowed. She stepped back and crossed her arms over her chest. " You need to go to our friend. "He’s your best friend Derek, he needs you more right now , he needs a shoulder to lean on . I am going to the house to see my dad , an
VEEI couldn't remember the time she took possession of my mind , but now that I think about it , it must have been that time when I and Seth were running away from the warlocks, along the line I had falling ill and we had to slow down , we had visited a witch, maybe it was at that point when we visited the witch that she got to me . The witch wasn't a pure witch , she had used dark magic to prepare concoctions for me , Sabrina is a dark warlock, she had gathered the powers of most elders in the dark council, so she could sense when any dark magic was used . I guess it was at that point that she possessed me easily, no struggles because I had the dark magic inside of me awake with the help of the concoctions.During the periods when she possessed , It felt like being entombed in my own mind for years. Lonely , at first , when I realised I wasn't thinking straight, it felt like I was thinking Someone else's thoughts, "the time I began to realise she possessed me was when I met you Adri
Derek Pov"Just ten weeks left until the ceremony, and then everything will be yours, brother," Adrian said as we ran through the mountains. From the right spot, the entire pack's land unfolds before your eyes like a vast, living map. I smirked, glancing over the expansive land below.Our pack held one of the largest territories, a testament to its strength. This was what I had been trained for all my life, shaped to lead. My parents were unmatched, the strongest Alpha pair in our history. For years, my parents had ruled with an iron fist, their strength unchallenged and their leadership unquestioned. No one dared to defy them, and any threat that dared approach was swiftly eliminated. They were untouchable, legends in their own right.But now, everything is changing. My power had grown, and the pack couldn’t help but notice. Whispers spread like wildfire. When a new strength rises, the pack naturally gravitates toward it. It wasn’t about disrespecting my father or forgetting all h...
