Orfilia's pov The swirling breeze is chilling to the bones and the snow is thick as cotton sheets spread over the ground neatly. The sun hasn't shined from days past but the hope is always there. Everything appeared white as a sea of milk and the fauna residing in the place went to hibernate for the whole winter.Not so far away, near a snow covered forest, a trembling beneath the ground felt and the small birds that were hiding in the trees fled away. Slowly, I opened my eyes and found myself buried in the thick white snow. Got up from the ground and a wave of cold breeze hit me hard in the chest. I don't remember the last time it was snowing when I left the pack looking for my friend, Ivory. I had nothing to cover over my body and my resistance to the cold seemed failing with each passing seconds. When I thought that I would die here under the ice, someone appeared out of nowhere and scared the shit out of me."What are you doing here?" A mysterious and strange woman asked me, s
The crushing sound that the portal made while getting close, just sent a shiver down to my spine. It exhausted me after the battle with the creepers but that Level 2; it was something else. Glad I didn't get any chance to encounter him. I hope i will pass the test.But one thing confuses me for sure, did Gideon back? Or did he leave the portal open for me? Uhhh.. that’s too hectic to think about. Anyway, the survivor should always follow rule number one of surviving an apocalypse, fight for yourself.That’s what I just did. I will deal with the aftermath of the portal closing, more I have a meeting to attend.Getting down to the downtown, I saw the crowd assembled near the Georgio centre, it's a place for the survivors to get trained to become hunters who hunt the creeper and return with a lot of resources for this town.Sadly, I didn't come back with anything, though I have lost my mate as well. On the close inspection, the crowd was here for nothing but for a line to get groceries.
Lance's povThe chimes ringing more than the highest peak of the mountains, the wind is screaming more than the banshee hiding in the deepest forest. The sun was rising above the highest wave and the icebergs were floating above the air. The crystal white snow was sparking than the brightest diamond present in the worldWe drove the vehicle from the outskirts area to gain more time and divert the Alpha Damien's army looking for the abducted princess of the pack.Poor wolves got nothing in their hands. Now I will trade this wolf in exchange for my freedom. I would stay a lone wolf rather than being under an Alpha. After the past experiences, I was willing to stay out of pack matters. Apart from this incident, I cannot forget the scent I inhaled in the crystal moon pack's territory. That she was a wolf, who was she? And why did my wolf howl after spotting her? Is it true that someone can get a second chance mate? All this time, I felt alone and worse, running around nowhere but now aft
Orfilia's povThe wild run I missed the day, I realised how difficult it was for me to stay away from the family, but they are the ones who deceived me by hiding the truth.I don't know what happened and why it happened, an accident or if it was intentional but this truth had changed my life. It makes much more sense now why Alpha Damien was kind and affectionate towards me. Every time he looked upon me, his eyes shone with pride and even on the day of my birthday, during the party when our eyes met, I felt his gaze different and his eyes looked more like mine. Coincidence? Maybe not. It could be possible that he was aware of this fact but if I am the Alpha's daughter, then how did Luna Aria not be able to find which one was her baby? Was she involved in this too. But if she was involved, she wouldn't have forced me to go after her daughter. All these facts and doubts were making me dizzy and now that I have an identity of being a moon wolf, I will be a target for enemies.Suddenly,
Orfilia's povThe earth beneath my feet slipped when I came face to face to the chief of a tribe who captured me for trespassing their territory, that too unknowingly. My eyes shoot up to his face, actually, her body. When she came into the limelight of the fireflies hanging above the trunk of the tree, giving the vibes of a ceiling with glow at night stickers, she appeared more beautiful with her wrinkles fading in the nova's glow."How are you, dear?" She asked me while observing me from the head to the toe.I flinched and stepped backwards, but got pushed by the tribal man behind me."I have seen you before… you were in the crystal moon pack on the day of the grand party." I claimed as I remembered where I saw her."You are right…" there was a hint of amusement in her voice which kept me at my low but I wanted to smack that smug from her face."Well, it seems to be sorted out that we know each other and have no fuss. Now, let me go…" i frowned and turned around to leave but the tri
Orfilia's pov "Fine… I accept your proposal and will bring your daughter back. What do I have to do exactly?" After agreeing on her proposal, I decided to give it a shot since it was the opportunity for me to know about my ancestry and my fate. For what reason I was chosen to be the moon wolf. When she referred to my biological father being a culprit of a crime that no one knows, except this woman in the format of me. She had claimed to be a powerful person because she belonged to a certain tribal community which had dedicated their entire life to training moon wolves. I wondered how many she had met?Bringing me back from the realm of my thoughts, I noticed her passing a smile on my face and stood a few inches away. My eyes darted at her when she brought her earthen dusted hands to my slender neck and clasped the pendant I was wearing at the moment.Just with a pull, she broke the snake chain from my neck and released the bond from my body. I noticed something different about me.
Orfilia's povMy heart beat raced faster when the darkness erupted around me after the big monument covered the entrance and blocked it. I sighed and shook my head, then gulped down the thick saliva stuck in my throat. There was a relief that I was still in my wolf form and my enhanced abilities would be an advantage in this situation. Standing here and doing nothing would be a waste of time, it would be better if I explore this place and find Rella before the time ticks away. Inside the cave, the temperature began to rise and I felt sweat building over my paws. Soon, my eyesight adjusted to the darkness and i went inside further.My ears pivoted to the site from where I heard a distinct voice. More of like a breathing, heaving breathing.I turned my paws and rushed downhill to the cave. Again, I spotted two entrances leading somewhere and both of them confused me from where the scent of wood and rose was stronger. I sniffed the air by force and tried to use my focus to locate Rella'
Orfilia's povThe thunderous strikes and the clashing of the fire built a diamond from a coal under pressure and something similar had happened to me. When I was tossed on the embedded ice crystals, my body sank inside of it. Pitch black darkness surrounded me and all the hopes died due to suffocation, then only, a miracle happened. For an ordinary werewolf, the blow might have a fatal effect but having an Alpha's blood in your vein gives you an upper hand in combat. I fought my accepted death and came out stronger, a different breed.The crystal around me cracked and exploded, revealing a new creature standing in front of that ruthless Ice monster who had ruled this realm for hundreds of years. This time, I was here to end this.My silver fur flew against the gravity and a blue neon aura was radiating throughout my body. I was floating in the air until I realised it was because of the extended bones that grew out of my back were wings. Those wings kept me levitating in the air.My ne
I wake up on the bed, drenched in all sweat, in the middle of the night and startled to see unknown surroundings. I gasp in fear and panic rose to my throat. I get up from the bed and rushes to the door to open it and escape from that place immediately. As I run barefoot through the corridors, but only to find out that I was in the infirmary, as I recall the place. I feel air passing into my lungs as I breathe in relief, but it confuses me to the core reasoning why I was in infirmary.Suddenly, I hear random and loud footsteps approaching me and I become alert and turn to look toward the footsteps. I notice a few of the healers and Daphne approaching me. My vision blurs and I feel my throat getting dry with every breath I take. My chest burns and I cough frequently. Something is not right? Why the hell I get in here? As I remember last night, I was partying with Lucian and others.The healer approaches me and helps me to breathe properly, “your majesty! Please come inside. You are wea
Orfilia's pov Once the celebration was over, I went straight to my room and called Lance because We both need to talk about this major decision I was about to take. He observed the anxiety and palpitations so he didn't let it get over and followed me to the room. When we reached, he put my hands in his and pulled me closer. Before I knew, he already had his lips on mine and we both moved in synchronisation. I didn't wanted to interrupt either so I moved with the flow and we both land on the bed, undressed each other and made love to each other. It was the best sex and he made me realise that what a worthy mate he was. I wished I could stay like that but I was lacking time since the noon was over and soon the sun will hide under the sky. "So, what are you thinking now?" Lance asked me. "I am thinking about you, us." I stated. "No! I mean, for future." He added. "Yeah! That's why I called you. I know I might sound childish but I don't want to stay here." I looked with a puppy face
Orfilia's pov The moment I had put the crown on Ivory's head, The crowd in the stadium went berserk. They applauded loudly and nothing seemed better than that, but, When my eyes met with Alpha Damien's, he was sad and upset about my decision. I would take long to make him understand that i never wanted to be the Alpha of this pack. Maybe, if things from the starting were different, I could be the Alpha but my spirit seek something meaningful and adventure. Lady Nymeria would be waiting for me and I had to leave this pack today. "But why? If I wanted to make her an Alpha, I would have asked her." Damien slammed his palms on the glass table, cracking it from the middle. We were in his study and the atmosphere was high and dramatic. "Why not? She is your daughter too and you said you wanted to see your daughter leading this pack, so what makes a difference if It's her, not me!" I stated while looking at him. "She is not you!!" He gritted his teeth. "Still makes no sense to me. If
Orfilia's pov After getting an approval from Alpha Damien, I was sure that I would bring the worthy candidate to be an Alpha of the pack. However, the time limit was short but atleast, I knew what I had to do. When I left the room, I bumped into Ivory and behind her were her daughters in the baby cart. She smiled widely at me. "Orfilia! You seem to be in a hurry. I know you have a coronation today but can you spare a moment for me." She made a request. "Of course, is everything alright?" I got worried when she called me to stay for a while. Even when I had limited time to find a worthy candidate, I couldn't deny her request. She escorted me out from the pack house while her daughters were taken to Alpha Damien's room. I wondered if Ivory was fine because I could read from her face that she wasn't feeling good. Her face was glowing under the warmth of the sun. "You haven't answered me." I asked her. "Yeah! I was occupied with thoughts. I have been awake the entire night. No matt
The night passed with tension lingering within the pack which was under the fog and the mist while they were playing like small children. The moon was bright and confident, however, the appearances might be deceiving. Even if the security had been increased around the boundaries and inside the pack, I was still anxious and palpating under the edge of a knife. I couldn’t sleep with peace as it kept me agitated all night long. The thoughts of becoming the Alpha of this pack was shaking me up. I did agree to Alpha Damien's demand only because I cannot make him feel depressed due to his conditions but this 'Becoming an Alpha' thought was keeping me at bay. I was alone in my room when I heard a knock and saw Lance entering. A smile flashed on his face and I gave him a slight smile too. "What's wrong? You seem worried." He spotted. "I am in a dilemma." I started with a low tone. "What dilemma? Is everything alright? I know that Alpha Damien had talked to you about something serious and e
With the morning dew glory at dawn and wet paws ahead of time, We saw the restricted boundaries of the Crystal moon pack in front of us. I breathed silently and felt secure to see my home, again but this feeling that I couldn't shrug off was eating me up. Since I had heard the news of Alpha Damien's fight for his life, I began believing in keeping the relationships at priority over anything else. I was his biological daughter but I never looked upon him as a father, although he was a father figure to me but he was not my dad. The man beside me raised me was the one I would call my dad. We shifted back into our human form and proceeded to enter the pack's territory. The guards bowed to us and Beta Male interacted with them to gather some information. He informed us that Alpha Damien's health had deteriorated since they had left looking for me. It broke my heart a little but Ivory was shattered. She was going to lose her last family member. "We shouldn't wait anymore." I nodded my
Orfilia's pov The cold air swept over my face but the hot sweat beads on my forehead dripped down to my cheekbones. Despite the lower temperature, the cottage was burning in tension. The surface broke with a loud noise which lingered inside my head. I was standing rooted to the place because the shock I just received was too much to bear. I tried hard not to show how scared i was but those enemies had made up their mind and attacked us. I tripped and fell down but got to save my two wolves protecting me behind my back. "Lance, dad? How did you get here?" I was too stunned to speak. "Leave that for later. We need to save Ivory. Alone, she cannot handle that witch's power and I am afraid she will die. "Let's go and save her.." Rella was excited as hell. They offered me some weapons to kill the creatures creeping form the darkness and we begin fighting them, making our way to Ivory and save her before that Witch would hurt her Rashak with his weapon took down one of them but it wa
Orfilia's povAs the dawn appeared out of the horizon, I watched the first ray of sun falling on the white snow and reflecting the sparkles like a fresh cut diamond. The moment was breathtaking and it made me forget the pain coursing through my body.The wounds haven't healed and the bruises are sore. As i tried to get up along with the surroundings, i realised that i am lying on a cot which is placed outside from a temple. Although, the ceiling was covering me from the morning dew but the chills did got me shudder my spine in shiver.As I tried to get up, I convulsed and threw up at another moment. I was exhausted and helplessly laid down back on the cot. The vision was getting blurred and the sense faded but I heard the faint footsteps approaching me.I wanted to get up and fight if someone was trying to take advantage of me. These past couple of days, bizarre things are happening with me. I can’t even relate if they're real or a mere hallucination, or I was just having an inceptio
Orfilia’s povThe chilling breezes are blowing enormously, and the howling silence of the dead telling their story of the previous battles. The ears are full of silent screams of the people who left behind after the wars.The dense fog is covering the battlefield and the tiny droplets are freezing on the eyelashes. I am feeling anxious and helpless, even when the whole thing is standing with me. It begins the inevitable and there is no turning back to it.The collapsing of the icebergs in the blue ocean reminded me of the collapse world of ours, fascinating and disturbing at the same time. Time had the power to manipulate everything but we, the pawns of destiny, had no control over this time, though we could fight our way to lead a battle or a life, it won’t be enough to control the time in hands. It slips from my hands like dried sand.At the top of the world, everything seemed so tiny and minute, but the same things appeared huge and bulky when we were on the ground, below zero… sho
