Avery's Point of View

“I’ve never worn anything like this before. It doesn’t feel… real,” I admitted, my voice trembling slightly.

Laura placed a hand on my shoulder, her expression softening. “You’ve been through a lot,” she said gently. “But you’re here now. And you deserve to feel good about yourself.”

I smiled slightly though I was still on guard just incase all of this was a facade and I would know how to defend myself.

Laura handed me a stunning white dress, and my breath caught the moment I saw it. The fabric shimmered under the store's soft lighting, a masterpiece adorned with delicate sequins that reflected a rainbow of hues. Tiny diamond-like stones were intricately embedded throughout the design, catching the light with every slight movement.

The dress was mid-thigh in length, hugging the body in all the right places while maintaining an air of sophistication. Its most striking feature was the open back—a sweeping curve that added an edge of allure without compromisi

    Avery's Point of View Maya’s smirk faltered for a moment before she regained her composure, but I saw it. A flicker of uncertainty in her eyes. I refused to let her win, not like this. This dress was mine, and no amount of money, power, or arrogance would change that.“What did you say to me?” She asked as she squinted her eyes at me.“I said, I'm not giving the dress to you, it's mine!!” I retorted as I stood up to her, it took me all my will power to confront her. She looked so intimidating, bit I refused to be looked down on, I refuse to remain people's punching bag.“I guess you're new in town, I can have your head brought to me just be a snap of my fingers”, she said with a smirk, but I refused to back down, not this time.“Then go ahead, snap it”, I challenged with a smirk of my own.The smirk on her face faded as she stepped back a bit, “You're going to regret this!!” She screamed then she called out “Get her!! Beat her up, make sure to break her legs!!”I thought it was jus

    Avery's Point of View “You little—!” She lunged at me, her hand raised to strike.“Any hands that touch her shall be cut off.”The room fell into complete silence as everyone turned to the source of the voice.**********Laura turned to Maya, her tone icy. “What is the meaning of this? Is this how you treat someone under my care?”“Miss Laura!” Maya stammered, her voice trembling.Laura ignored her, her gaze locked on me. Her calm expression softened slightly as she stepped closer. “Are you alright?”I nodded, a wave of relief washing over me. “I am now.”“How dare you bully her?”, now it was Maya’s turn to tremble, I never knew that Laura had this much power here and that made me admire her even more.“Beta Laura, she insulted me and I was only doing the right thing by putting her in her place”, Maya responded as she tried holding her ground, though there were still visible traces of fear in her eyes.Laura being the Beta’s mate automatically placed her in a very high and powerful p

    Kaiden’s Point of View“Arghh!!”, I groaned as I punched the wall in my personal training room, not from the pain but the constant thoughts of her that just kept filling my head, I just couldn’t seem to get her off my mind.What’s going on with me?Why can’t I just stop thinking about that girl?These were the constant questions that were always on my mind. “You’re worried about Kaiden”, Slade’s voice suddenly flooded into my mind. “But you wouldn’t just admit it”, he added before remaining silent.“That’s not it Slade, I just don’t know what’s wrong with me”, I replied as I cupped my face. “We were so sure that she was our mate, the scent, everything, when suddenly it all changed. The connection was lost”, I said with a slight huff.If this was another trick by the Moon Goddess, then she really played us well, this one felt so real but she just had to snatch everything from me.“Kaiden?”, Slade called with a slight worry in his voice.“Yes, what is it?”, I asked as I narrowed my eyes

    Kaiden's Point of ViewBut there was nowhere to run. The hall’s doors had been sealed shut, as was tradition during the celebration to ensure privacy. The very walls meant to protect us became their prison.I leaped unto a man near the center of the room. My claws ripped through him like paper. His blood sprayed across the wooden floor, a stark contrast to the golden glow of the lanterns.One by one, I ended them all. The laughter and joy that had filled the room only moments ago were replaced by the stench of blood and the silence of death.And then I turned to my parents.They stood frozen at the head of the hall, their faces pale. My mother clung to my father, her wide eyes brimming with tears. “Kaiden,” she whispered, her voice trembling. “Please… please stop.”For a moment, something inside me hesitated. But the curse would not be denied. A low growl escaped my throat as I crouched, ready to lunge. My claws gleamed in the flickering light, and I could feel the raw power coiling wi

    Kaiden’s Point of View“Slade,” I murmured, my voice barely audible even to myself. “If I can’t end this curse…” I swallowed hard, the weight of the words nearly crushing me. “…then I think it’s better I die.”And with that, I stepped out of the room, leaving behind the echoes of the past and the burden of my unspoken fears.I headed straight to my room, my steps heavy as if the weight of the world pressed down on my shoulders. The grand oak doors creaked slightly as I pushed them open, revealing the familiar sanctuary that was my private space. The room was vast yet inviting, with tall windows draped in thick, dark curtains that barely let in the moonlight.A massive bed with neatly arranged silver-gray sheets dominated the center, its frame carved with intricate patterns of wolves and crescent moons.Despite the elegance and comfort, the room felt cold, a reflection of the emptiness I carried within.I sat on the edge of the bed, my elbows resting on my knees as I cradled my aching h

    Kaiden's Point of View Finally, three months have elapsed and the time has come. I had already left the pack premises 30 minutes ago and was on my way to the silver abyss. That was the only place that came to mind.It was very far from the pack, and void from people except rogues and spirits. So, even if a few rogues have to die tonight, then that’s great. It's better than having to kill innocent people.The wind tore at my face as I sprinted through the forest, the trees blurring past me in dark streaks. My lungs burned with each breath, but I couldn’t stop—not now. The Silver Abyss was still far, and the curse was clawing its way to the surface faster than I’d anticipated.My muscles screamed in protest, but I forced them to keep moving. The pack was behind me, far enough for now, but if I didn’t make it to the abyss in time, the distance wouldn’t matter.The first wave of heat hit me hard, like someone had poured boiling water into my veins. I stumbled, catching myself on a tree t

    Narrator’s Point of ViewFAR AWAY IN THE CELESTIAL REALMThe celestial hall shimmered under the endless glow of ethereal starlight. The floor was a polished mirror reflecting the heavens, and the air carried a weight of divine authority. Five thrones were arranged in a semicircle, each belonging to a deity, their presence radiant and commanding.Selene, the Moon Goddess, sat at the center, her silver hair cascading down her back like a river of light. Her gaze was steady, but her luminous eyes carried the burden of sorrow. Beside her, Venus, the Goddess of Love, exuded an aura of soft warmth, though her expression was edged with concern. To the left, Hera, the Queen of the Gods, radiated power and authority, her piercing gaze fixed on Selene. Opposite them, two gods—Ares, the God of War, and Apollo, the God of the Sun—sat in contemplative silence, their expressions unreadable.The silence was broken by Hera, her voice sharp as a blade. "His curse grows stronger day by day, Luna," she

    Kaiden’s Point of ViewThe silver abyss stretched endlessly before me, the cold metallic light painting everything in haunting shades of gray. My claws dripped with fresh blood, the coppery stench of death clinging to the air as bodies of rogues littered the ground around me. Their snarls and shrieks had faded into silence, replaced by the relentless mantra hammering in my mind.Kill.Destroy.Blood.The words echoed like a sinister drumbeat, their rhythm intoxicating and inescapable. Every time I thought I’d regained control, the curse surged forward, filling my veins with a dark energy that craved more. More blood. More destruction.A rogue leapt at me from the shadows, its fangs bared, but I barely registered the movement. My body acted on instinct, claws slashing through its throat in one swift, brutal motion. Warm blood splattered across my chest, and instead of revulsion, a twisted satisfaction settled in the pit of my stomach.With every drop of blood spilled, the curse grew st

    Maya’s Point Of ViewThe first thing I felt when I woke was pain. A dull, deep, all-consuming ache that throbbed between my thighs, spread across my hips, my ribs, my breasts. I shifted slightly and hissed. God, everything hurt.My eyes fluttered open, blinking against the golden evening light filtering through my curtains. For a moment, I stared blankly at the ceiling, disoriented, my mind sluggish, my body weighed down by invisible chains.Why was I so sore? Why did I feel... used?The blanket slipped from my body, and that’s when I noticed. I was naked. Completely, utterly bare under the sheets. A choked gasp ripped from my throat. I clutched the blanket desperately to my chest, my heart hammering, a scream rising in my throat.What happened? What the hell happened?!I tried to sit up, and a sharp, searing pain shot through my core, making me collapse back down with a whimper.And then… The memories crashed into me.The boutique. Coming home in a blinding rage. Ripping apart my roo

    Lucas’s Point Of ViewI watched her.My beautiful, furious, broken little Maya.She stood there in the wreckage of her own making, blood dripping from her clenched fists, her chest heaving with shallow, panicked breaths. Her wild eyes locked onto me, full of a rage she barely understood.Good.Let her rage.Let her hate.As long as it kept her tethered to me. Slowly, I pushed off the wall, stepping closer. One slow, deliberate step. Her body tensed instantly, like a cornered animal.Good again."Stay away from me," she barked, voice sharp, but I heard the tremble underneath it. I smirked. Another step.Closer.Closer.Her breathing hitched, nostrils flaring as she scrambled backward, only to slam into the wall behind her.Trapped.Perfect."Why can't you leave me alone?!" she burst out, fists trembling at her sides. "Why are you always... always around me?!" I stopped a mere breath away from her, leaning down so that my face was inches from hers.I watched her pupils dilate, her blood

  • Bound To The Cursed Alpha King    127~ They Didn't Even See Me

    Maya’s Point Of ViewI stormed out of that cursed boutique, fists clenched so tight my nails dug bloody crescents into my palms. The staff’s mocking laughter echoed behind me, digging into my back like a thousand poisoned knives.I didn’t look back.I couldn’t.If I did, I’d lose whatever shred of dignity I had left, and they didn’t deserve to see me break. The sun outside was blinding, searing my eyes, but I didn’t care.I marched straight to my car, heels stabbing the pavement with each furious step, my breathing harsh and ragged. I could still feel Laura’s hand around my throat, the phantom pain burning hotter with every passing second.‘You’ll regret this,’ Laura, I swore silently. ‘You and every worm who laughed today will regret ever crossing me.’ I flung open the driver’s door and slid in, slamming it shut with a bone-jarring BANG.Just as I jammed the keys into the ignition, the passenger door yanked open. “Maya, wait!” Jenna gasped, her face pale, her eyes wide with fear.

    Maya’s Point Of ViewI couldn’t breathe for a second. The humiliation. The rage. The molten fire ripping under my skin, threatening to consume me whole.I would not let her win."He told me himself!" I snapped, my voice slicing through the thickening tension like a blade. I stomped forward so violently the designer let out a startled yelp, clutching her clipboard to her chest like a shield."He said I'm the only one fit to stand beside him!" I screamed, trembling with fury, my hands clenched into fists so tight my nails bit into my palms.Laura stood there, arms folded, completely unbothered. That damn smirk… that infuriating, mocking smirk, curled across her lips like she already knew the ending of a play I was fumbling through."Probably just trying to chase away a clinging little parasite," she said lightly, voice dripping with boredom, as if I was less than a fly buzzing near her ear.My blood boiled over."You…" I lunged at her, reckless, blinded by white-hot rage, my hand swingi

    Maya’s Point Of ViewI watched, lounging like royalty, as Laura finally… finally, lifted her delicate hand and waved dismissively toward the designer. "You may attend to her," she said, her voice smooth but clearly edged with something cold. "I’ll wait."The designer hesitated, looking between us, visibly torn. I smirked wider, crossing my legs slowly, deliberately.As it should be. The future Luna didn’t wait for anyone.I rose from the chair in one graceful, commanding movement, my heels clicking sharply against the marble floor. Every movement screamed power. Entitlement. Destiny."Come along now," I said breezily to the poor designer, who scurried ahead of me like a frightened rabbit. Jenna and Tasha, who had waited in the corridor, immediately fell in step beside me, their eyes shining with excitement.I tossed a look over my shoulder, giving Laura a smug little wave. "Pity," I said, voice dripping with faux sympathy. "You’ll get used to waiting behind me soon enough." The way La

    Maya’s Point Of ViewWe cranked the volume up even louder, the music roaring through the house like a living thing. The maids wisely disappeared, or maybe fled, leaving us alone to bask in the madness. Wine flowed like water. Laughter echoed through the halls.We danced, wild, reckless dancing in our designer clothes, hair flying, glasses sloshing, makeup smudging, not caring about anything but the rush, the pure high of victory. At one point, Jenna climbed onto the coffee table, waving her glass over her head and shouting, "Long live Queen Maya!"Tasha and I howled with laughter, nearly collapsing onto the floor. I flopped down into a chair, breathless and giddy, my chest heaving. My cheeks hurt from smiling so much. Tasha plopped down beside me, still giggling, and leaned close."So," she said, voice dropping conspiratorially. "When's the big announcement?" I smirked. "Soon," I said, swirling the wine in my glass lazily. "I want it to be a moment. Big, public. No doubt left in anyon

    Maya’s Point Of ViewI left the packhouse with my heart soaring so high, it felt like I could float. The moon bathed the grounds in a silver glow, and for once, everything… everything, felt exactly right. The door slammed behind me, and I practically skipped down the marble steps, my heels clicking with sharp satisfaction.I was going to be Luna.Not just some pretty little shadow hovering behind Kaiden. No, I would be his equal, his queen. I would finally take the place that had always been mine by right.I huffed out a laugh, half disbelief, half giddy euphoria, tossing my hair over my shoulder as I made my way to my sleek black car. Sliding into the leather seat, I ran a manicured hand through my hair and grinned at my reflection in the rearview mirror."Finally," I whispered to myself, voice trembling with elation. "Finally, Maya Pierce gets everything she deserves." I revved the engine and sped off, the scenery blurring past me as I drove toward my private house just off the pack

    Kaiden’s Point Of ViewThirty minutes later, we stood outside in the training field behind the house.The morning air was cool and crisp, filled with the earthy scent of dew-covered grass and the faint rustle of leaves stirred by a gentle breeze. The sun was a low, molten gold on the horizon, casting a soft glow over everything, painting Avery’s hair in threads of silver and honey as she stood across from me.Arms crossed, chin tilted defiantly, she was the perfect picture of stubbornness and beauty. Her hair was tied up in a messy braid that somehow made her look even more irresistible. And gods, her outfit. Black, fitted workout clothes that clung to her like a second skin, highlighting every curve, every dip, and line of her body.I could barely focus.She noticed my stare instantly, her cheeks tinging a delicious shade of pink. "Stop staring," she muttered under her breath, fiddling with the hem of her top. I grinned wolfishly. "Not my fault you look so damn edible," I said shame

    Kaiden’s Point Of ViewThe words echoed through my mind long after Slade’s voice faded into the silence.The curse. The darkness.It would come. But so would I. I stared down at the girl sleeping against my chest… my mate, my heart, my reason for breathing, and a fierce, almost primal need to protect her surged through me.No matter what happens, I swore silently. No matter what it takes... I will protect you, Avery. Even if it costs me everything. Even if it costs me myself.Slowly, I shifted, careful not to wake her. I cupped her face, feeling the delicate warmth of her skin under my palm. Her lashes fluttered slightly in her sleep, and she made a small, contented sound that squeezed my heart until it physically hurt.I dipped my head, brushing my lips over her forehead. Then her temple.Then her cheek. And finally, finally, her mouth. I kissed her softly, deeply, pouring every unspoken vow, every desperate promise into that kiss. She stirred faintly, her lips moving against mine in
