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
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
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
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 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
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
PROLOGUE The fog in the night wasn't the only thing that chased me in the deepest lly dense forest of an enemy land. When I sniffed the air, I smelled rouges behind me. They weren't fully aware of my existence but I was. No visibility, no help, depending on my enhanced smell and hearing sensation. Crushing the dried leaves under the laws, I watched them from a distance when they appeared in my way. A beautiful doe sleeping under the hollow bark of a tree, so sounded that she couldn't feel the danger around her. Hunger and bloodlust had driven me crazy and I didn't mind having a piece of meat but it wasn't something that I would share, not with these rouges.My eyes were locked, so was theirs. They longed to attack the doe. I felt the intensity and the rush of the adrenaline in my vein when my hunger made me jump in the action. I swung and landed like a sly fox on the ground, without making noise, I chased them. When the proximity closed, they saw me running behind them and growled at
The Trial of the werewolfThe faint sun rays fell inside the trunk and I could assume that it was daytime and I was still inside the trunk of the vehicle. I haven't eaten anything but it was okay. I had adjusted to being starved for a few days.However, it was difficult to stay in position for long hours. Being tied around, it was difficult to shift, later I realised lately that it wasn't the small space which didn't let me shift, it was Wolf's Bane in my blood which made me weaker.My abductors must have ingested the Wolf's Bane when I passed out. Damn!! This doesn't feel right. Where are they taking me to? Something was hideous about it. A place so far where i was wondering, no my assumption, i guessed that we were traveling to the west. my sense of smell was weakened too. As long as this Wolf's Bane will stay in my blood, I won't be able to free myself using my enhanced skills and sense.Not so far, the vehicle stopped and I heard commotion outside. There were several in numbers an

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
