Holding the two crystals, I used my palms to squeeze them. A crystal only breaks when the intended person touches it. One of the crystals burst and Ella's voice filled ears." When you get this message, my king, I will be Long gone from this world. When I agreed to come to the Lycan kingdom, it's because I did it to save my sister's life.Bianca committed a crime against the Lycans. She tried to Poison the King inorder to save her daughter's life from the cruelty of fate. To spare her life, I begged the former king to allow me to stay here as his prisoner and help him stabilise the land which was in chaos. I then used my powers to seal my sister in a magical prison. Now that I am no longer alive, my sister is bound to break free. She has deep resentment against the Lycans and I am afraid she will use someone close to you to get back at the Lycans. The prophecy is bound to come true, I am just afraid that even the land won't be spared if my sister's resentment poisons her daughter's li
"Without anything belonging to the lady, it will be hard to find her.What about her daughter, do you know who she is?" Valeria asked and I shook my head." Ella didn't say anything about it either. It's like she wants me to find the woman too." I replied.A knock on the door interrupted us. Lord Ramiel entered, followed by his daughters and Leo." My King, she is here." Lord Ramiel said, pushing forward his daughter who bowed in respect." Greetings, your highness?" She greeted me and I nodded in agreement." I assume your father has briefed you as to why you are here?" I asked and she nodded." So tell me, did you do that?"" I didn't." She replied without stuttering.Turning to Lord Ramiel, I cocked my brows at him, awaiting an explanation." My King, Since I am the one responsible for guarding the poison, I shall give the king a good explanation. All I ask for is a little bit of time to investigate the culprit." Ramiel requested.He left my office after I agreed to his request." I
I moaned in delight when Alex's big Palm cupped my teats through the fabric of my dress. His skillful tongue explored every corner of my mouth. The sensation made my nipples ache."I've been looking forward to this all day," he murmured, sliding his palm up to my neck. He held my head in place as he kissed me again, hard. His hand wandered back down, and he squeezed one of my breasts."Mmm," I hummed, feeling his hot lips on my throat, his strong hand on my bosom. My hands went to his shirt buttons. I wanted him naked and in me, soon. I fumbled with the first button, and his hot hand slid across my thigh. He pulled up the hem of my dress and cupped my bare bottom. A finger stroked along my slit, finding my wetness. "Oh, Goddess..." I whimpered."You're wet already?" he breathed, his lust filled eyes burning with desire.I nodded.He moved his hand between my legs, rubbing me, teasing me, before sliding a thick finger inside."Ooh!" I gasped."Mm," he purred in delight, pulling back hi
Stepping downstairs, I was greeted by the sight of my family seated around the table for lunch. My mother had a beautiful smile on her face." Trust you had a good rest?" She asked and I nodded." That's good. Join us for lunch. Your father prepared all your favourites." She added.Turning to look at my father, he smiled at me.I rushed to him, hugging him. He hugged me back, patting my back." You're the best dad in the whole world." I praised and he pinched my cheeks." And you are the best daughter there is. Having you in our lives was the most beautiful blessing we ever got." He said. For some reason, I could feel that there was more he meant but I ignored, happy that I was finally with my family.I took a seat beside my brother and smiled at him." What took you so long to come down? Had a good dream?" He teased me.I stuck out my tongue at him and turned my attention to the food." Let's eat." My mom said and we began eating." How's everything going with your new home?" My moth
" You should hurry and tell me why you wanted to see me. I'm not in the mood to entertain you." I said." I Just wanted to say I'm sorry for how I treated you in the past. " Lucas said, making me roll my eyes at him." Believe me Linda, I never wanted things to come to this but you Know that you didn't shift at the right time so that means you are weak. Even if I insisted on being with you, I would be under pressure to get another Luna for the pack. " He continued." I honestly don't care what your reasons were to not acknowledge what was Forged between us but that doesn't matter. I don't care anymore. I already rejected you and you have your powerful Luna now. We should stay away from each other's paths. Don't cross mine and I'll never cross yours. " I said." Why don't you understand that? Do you want me to apologize even more? I'm doing it right now. Can't we go back and be how we were supposed to be?" He said." Oh please! Spare me. You want us to go back to how it was supposed to
" What's the matter Kaiser?" I asked after making sure Alex was out of sight." Have you been having your nightmares lately?" He asked and I shook my head." Except for last night when I had a different nightmare, I haven't been having them Since I arrived at the Lycan kingdom. " I answered." A different one? What did you see? " Kaiser asked, his eyes narrowing as he scrutinized my face." It's terrifying Kaiser. I don't want to think about it." J replied, my mind replaying the scene of Alex looking at me with hurt expression, my dagger plunged deep Into his heart. His fresh blood coating my hands." Okay, I won't ask again but tell me something, is what you saw the reason you ran away from him? " Kaiser asked, making my eyes widen with surprise." How did you Know that?" I asked and he smiled." You are my sister Linda. I Know you like the back of my hand. But Linda, do you think running is the ultimate solution? Will it solve anything? Will it change anything? " Kaiser asked and I
" What's wrong with having feelings for her? She's a fine woman, caring and loving. Most importantly, she is not mated. You don't have a mate either. It's not bad to choose her as your life partner." I said in defense." She is an omega." Kaiser said in a low voice after a minute of silence." So what if she is an omega? Are you saying she is not worthy of being your mate Just because she is an Omega?" I asked him with anger and hurt in my heart. I have never liked it when others deemed omegas unworthy and I wasn't definitely expecting that from my own brother. Aren't they humans with wolves just like the rest? Why should they be looked down just because of a fucking rank?" Don't put words in my mouth. I never said she is not worthy. I just don't know if she feels the same. Besides, what happens if she finds her mate later? J would be left all alone, broken. " Kaiser sighed and shook his head, looking away." If you feel anything for her, then go for it. You would regret it for the r
Linda's POVIt was already late evening when Alex and I arrived back home. After dinner, we headed straight to our room. I suddenly felt scared being in the same room with Alex." Don't worry, I won't ask you why you ran away today but Linda, can you not do that again? If there's a problem, approach me and tell me about it. I am sure we can always find a way around it."He sat beside me on the bed, held my face in his hands, and gently wiped away the tears that were forming in my eyes."I don't know. I just felt really scared. At that moment, I just wanted to get away from everything so I ran away. I'm sorry for making you worry. " I replied.Alex smiled at me and placed his lips on my forehead." Don't think too much about it. Just tell me if something is bothering you. I'll try to understand you and help you through it."He kissed my forehead again and I could feel my cheeks burning. I tried to hide my blush by turning my head away.He pulled me closer to him and wrapped his arms ar
Crawling to her, I shifted back to my human form. Clutching her into my arms, I watched as she took her last breath. Turning to look at Alex, he was slowly drawing closer to the claws of death. Letting out a loud growl, something snapped inside me and I felt a sudden rush of adrenaline rushing through me as something crawled under my skin. It was sweet, dark, eerie and sadistic.A sense of dread overtook me as a new power surged in my veins, burning and searing my flesh as it rushed to the surface. A shining beam of light surrounded me as I felt a strange coldness settling deep in the marrows of my bones then I exploded, letting everything go. The ground underneath me started to quake, the air inside the four walls turned thick, my skin felt as if it was on fire, but instead of burning me it felt like it was peeling off.Groans and grunts filled the room, a sudden tsunami surrounding me, lifting me up and driving in circles. Beams of pure light hit the enemy, a single blow sendin
The more Lucian ranted the more I pitied him. Pathetic right? But as a child, he didn't deserve to be treated that way. Just like he said, I was raised in wealth but what more was I offered. Just like him, I was a caged bird, caged by the walls and rules of the kingdom yet what I went through as a child didn't influence what I am now. " That's no excuse to harm innocent people. " I started calmly.I could feel my body burning, no, scorching would be the perfect explanation. The heat was so much that I just wanted to claw at my skin. " Innocent people? " Lucian sneered. " How innocent could they be? Thanks to those so-called innocent people, I was branded dangerous, a traitor. And that stupid fortune teller, claiming that I would bring downfall to the whole land. Her useless words added to that pathetic man's hatred towards me and I was kicked away in the middle of the night, just like the dirty secret I was in his hands. Now, I just want to fulfil her words, bring the world under
Linda's povThe fight between Rosabella and I was getting intense. She was like a cornered beast, fighting it's way for freedom.Her attacks were ferocious and unforgiving, not giving me time to breath as she unleashed her full force upon me. One thing I realised, her magic wss weak, meaning her witch side Wasn't that strong. She was relying on her vampire and lycan powers to fight."I don't want to do this Rosabella" I told her as I tried to disarm her without hurting her. "You should have thought about that before you betrayed your people and join that man to cause ruckus. Rosabella sneered. " And you think you are Qualified to tell me what and what not to do? " I shook my head. At this point, she could already tell that she was clearly not strong enough to rival me yet she was insisting on fighting to the death? " Even if you don't care about yourself, at least think about your son. He is young and needs you. He needs a mother to care and love him. " I said in an attempt to c
Alex povWe set off after Linda's mother and I had a little chat.While I was away, I instructed Fiona to take charge of the kingdom and if something happens to me, she would take over as the Next lycan king.As for Linda, she would chose whether to stick around or leave the kingdom and continue with her life.I know she loves her profesion so I did the only thing I thought was good for her, setting her free.With me gone, i don't think she will be comfortable living with the lycans. Not like my people won't accept her, it's just that staying back would only give her pain." We still need you, she needs you. " Leo mindlinked me as we approached the prison where the battle would be held.I smiled, albeit bitterlyI didn't want this for myself, for my kingdom and most especially for my mate but some things are inevitable.This battle will only end with my death.I nodded at him.Leo looked away. I could see the pain in his eyes yet he remained strong." Change of plans. Your mate will t
Linda's povMorning came and as promised, Aurora sneaked into my prison cell. " Ready? " She asked and I nodded. Muttering a few words, I was freed from the chains making my eyes widen in surprise. " How did you do that? " I asked and she smiled. "The cuffs are something my family created so I can control them, " She replied, shrugging her shoulders. She then casted a spell on herself, looking exactly like me. Looking at her, I could hardly tell the difference, even her scent matched mine. " Go now! You can't waste more time. " She urged me. Nodding, I turned around and left. I found myself Following the path like I knew the place and ended up Aurora's room. Sitting on her bed, I prayed to the goddess to let her see the end of the day. My skin felt dirty from all the days I had stayed without a bath. Stripping, I headed to the bathroom.I washed away the dirt and the grime that had collected itself on my skin.After I finished, I stepped out of the bathroom feeling refresh
Linda's POVShe was right.Whether Alex stayed back at the kingdom or came to this damn forsaken place, a confrontation between them was inevitable. From what I saw about that man, his hatred for Alex ran deep and there's nothing that could stop him from taking his revenge on Alex.It's funny or should I say it's twisted how that man thinks?After being discarded by his father, he blames Alex for his misfortunes?I nodded." Do you have a plan?" I asked, taking x deep breath and embracing the fact that it was time for war.Macbeth grinned, " Now that's More like it."I smiled, amazed at how even her expressions and vigor matched Valeria's." Lucian plans to attack the castle but we will do it Instead. Tomorrow before noon, seduce him, make him let his guard down. We will invade this place, eliminate all the rogues and goddess knows what fate will be served to that bastard because I won't let him breathe past tomorrow." Macbeth said, her words filled with determination." Alright, then
Macbeth povComing here was something that I would probably get a Scolding from my father but at this point, I didn't care. I needed to do this for my sister.For so many years, I had tried to convince my father to bring her back to the deep sea where her family is but he never agreed." She is a witch, Macbeth. She can't survive here. " That would always be his reply.He was right yet every time I heard his answer, I would not help but be angry.Angry that he never found a way to bring her to us.I would sneak occasionally to the dry land and sneak a peek at her yet every time I saw her, I left more heartbroken than the previous time.Her life among the lycans wasn't as bad. She was respected and valued here. Nobody treated her badly. At Least that would comfort me everytime.She had someone who adored her to the moon and back. Sometimes, I even envied her. Her life was fun, nothing like the mundane life I lived under water." Are you even listening to me? " I heard Kaiser's voice as
Looking at the scene unravelling before me made me sick to the stomach. Turns out that the reason that child looked like me was because he was my brother's son, a brother I never knew about." So now, do you still want to deny it? " Macbeth asked and I sucked in cold breath." There's nothing to deny but the fact still remains, I never knew that I had a brother somewhere. " I replied in all honesty." I can't believe this! " Leo murmured, looking all shaken." You really didn't know? " Macbeth pressed but I was getting fed up with her." How many times must I say that I never knew!? " I raised my voice as I spoke." If you really want your help then the first step you take is trust us. Why would I lie about something so serious? If I ever knew about having a brother, do you believe i'll want to be the lycan king? I have never loved being tied down to the throne. " I added and she nodded, looking away." I think Alex is telling the truth. He would not let someone take Jos mate away and
The lady turned to look at Leo with an hostile look painting her face. " You know nothing about my family so I suggest you stop making wild guesses." She warned. I shook my head at Leo , stopping him from arguing with her. At this point , we were supposed to stick together to face the enemy and not fight amongst ourselves. As for their differences, although I doubt there's any , they will solve them later. " Show me to my sister's room and bring something that belongs to your mate." The lady instructed and I nodded. " Leo , can you show her to valeria's room? " I requested but he growled at me, obviously dissatisfied. "'Why should I take her? " He asked. " Forget it . I'll head there myself. I'll just follow her scent. Macbeth replied before turning away and heading in the direction of valeria's room.I sighed and Leo frowned. He then glared at me. " What? " I asked, feigning innocence. " Why would you allow her to enter valeria's room? " He asked and this time, it's Kaiser
