"Jessica!"

I shook her and she blinked a couple of times, her face was as white as snow and her jaw hung open slightly. I dug my nails into her skin, moving closer to peer at her,

"How did you know I was held in a building?" I hissed slowly, my eyes narrowed into slits.

Her alarmed gaze darted furtively from one eye to the other and she shakily. "I-I-"

"Tell me!" I screamed angrily, the hold on her quivering. My chest rose and fell shakily, eyes bleary from moisture.

I was right! Jessica was behind my capture. I knew she was a bad person but what I didn't expect was this. How could someone stoop so low?

As if a flip had been switched, her countenance changed from skittish to furious. She shoved at my chest harshly, causing me to lose balance and land on the floor.

I heard collective gasps from the people around us but nobody moved to intervene. Jessica glowered at me, dusting off the spot I'd held earlier,

    She was laughing. Wide-open laughter as she threw her head back in amusement at whatever one of her friends was saying.I stabbed my fork into the ribs, wishing I could kill her with my gaze."If you keep on looking at her like that, she's bound to see you." My eyes flickered towards Cora who had an eyebrow raised. I shrugged, placing the meat into my mouth and chewing slowly. "I can't help it, I feel like strangling her." Paige chuckled, tapping my shoulder in comfort. "In time, you'll get to do that."Dinner progressed at an excruciatingly slow pace and I couldn't wait to get out of here. The hall was packed full tonight and I spotted Lady Calloway talking to the chef earlier. Finally, Jessica stood up, muttering something to her friends then waved and strutted out."Oh, that's my cue." I jumped to my feet, banging my knees against the table in the process. I winced in pain, rubbing the sore spot,"Take it easy, Dee. Are you sure you'll be able to creep up on her without being no

    A weak groan slipped past my lips as I lazily turned to the side, my fingers scraping against the moist sand. The smell of earth and leaves filtered into my nose and I coughed lightly, pushing myself to a sitting position. My muscles protested at the sudden movement, a wince contorting my features as I managed to sit upright.For a moment, my vision blurred and all I could see was the hazy outlines of the trees surrounding me. My head was throbbing like crazy and my ribs hurt, the constant chirping of the birds overhead only served as an annoyance."Shit," I cursed when my fingers made contact with the back of my head, the spot was tender and sore. Bright splotches of red cover the tips of my fingers.I had to get out of here, and fast.I looked around warily, the entire area was empty save for a few squirrels darting around the bushes. My breathing was heavy and laboured, a dizzy spell threatening to overtake me. When I looked up, the bright ray from the sunlight shone on my face and

    "Clara isn't the person behind this," I removed my phone from my back pocket, "I'll show you who the real culprit is." Everyone in the crowd began murmuring loud enough to drown out Lady Calloway's shouts. My narrowed gaze fell on Jessica's but the smug grin on her face remained. I bristled slightly and then faced the eager crowd who had suddenly grown quiet,"Clara Munroe is not the orchestrator of my kidnap. I know this because I do not even know her nor does she know me. I have the proof here." My voice echoed in the vast space as I waved my phone around.Lady Calloway looked like she'd had enough of my antics. Her arms were crossed against her chest and her lips were tightly pursed."Here," I stretched the device to her, my breathing held as she raised a brow, "Please watch the video." Her sun-kissed eyes narrowed suspiciously over the battered phone and for a moment, I saw hesitation flash across her features. When she gingerly accepted the phone from my outstretched hand, I ex

    The crystal droplets felt like ice on my skin and a soft exhale escaped through my lips. I dipped my fingers back into the cool water, mesmerised by the way it made my skin luminescent. It had been a week since the incident and Clara was evicted from the house, her family was also taxed for delivering ten per cent of stocks in addition to her pack being banned from ever crossing foot into the Capital. In truth, I still couldn't fathom why she would do that. What did Jessica offer that was more valuable than her dignity? I deeply inhaled, retracted my hand from the water and tipped my head back. The sky was unusually dark tonight and bleak of stars, the moon looked like a big round ball of white and it reminded me how hollow I felt. The next round was tomorrow and I had no idea what to expect and for some strange reason, I was missing him.My fingers went up to my neck, clutching the small gem that rested below my collarbone. He'd said the stone reminded him of my eyes, ironically, i

    I was barely concentrating on what Paige was saying, her lips were rapidly moving and her hands flying around but my mind was elsewhere. I couldn't get rid of the image in my head. Although my body still burned from his touch, I was unable to clear away the memory.I was certain that his eyes had turned gold but that was impossible. He was just an imperial soldier, a Kingsguard. It didn't make sense that he had that eye colour.Maybe it was the lighting or I had been imagining things in the haze of the passion."Dahlia!" Paige shook me by the shoulders, effectively bringing me back to reality, "Did you even listen to anything I said?"I gave her a sheepish look and she rolled her eyes, linking her arms with mine. We trudged out of the room where Cora was busy talking to a leggy redhead, when her companion saw us, she offered us a friendly wave before sauntering off. "Who was that?" Paige asked before I did and Cora smirked mischievously. When Paige offered her a free arm, Cora wrinkl

    The entire court was thrown into pandemonium after they'd heard the news. Calloway had left, leaving only Carissa to care for the panicky girls. I was confused, not understanding why everyone was so pale with fear. The doors to the court were closed shut, the windows locked and guards stationed around the building. Everyone was on high alert and no one wanted to go back into their rooms."What are shadow wolves?" I turned to face Cora who had a pensive expression on his face, "Cora?" She blew out a shaky breath, threading a finger through her dark curls. Paige was no better, she kept chewing into her nails, and an arm was wrapped around her middle. "Only the most fearsome wolves in the underworld," She whispered eerily, "Nobody knows where they are located, rumours have it that they live deep in the bottom of the earth and they're are descendants of the original Lycans." Now, I was even more confused. I had never heard of this legend before more so imagined that they truly existed.

    "What?" A broken whisper left my parted lips, ears buzzing from the words she'd just spoken. Sol wrapped her arms around Miranda who sobbed into her neck. "Shit," Cora cursed, jumping to her feet. She looked like she was struggling to come to terms with the news. I shook my head, eyes scanning the room. Although nobody had heard what Miranda had just said, they were sure to find out soon enough. The court ladies were closer now and the rest of the girls were peering at us with keen interest. I had to do something,So I stood up, simultaneously clapping my hands together. "Oh, Miranda! Come I'll take you to my room where you can get some meds for your aching tummy," I made my voice loud enough for it to echo in the vast space.I hurried over to Miranda, ignoring the look the other girls shot me. "Just go along with it," I whispered into Sol's ear and her bright eyes widened. "Yeah, you should follow us and get those meds!" She yelled loudly, urging Miranda to get on her feet. "W

    My blurry eyes tried to focus on the screen of my phone. My mind was racing with different thoughts and the space between my fingers was beginning to get sweaty.Twenty missed calls.Ten unread messages, the recent one sent three minutes. I blew out a breath and threw the phone on the bed. I raked my fingers through my hair and shut my eyes tightly. My brain felt like it would combust any moment from now,I couldn't get what happened last night out of my head. I could still feel his hot breath fanning my face, the tiny claw marks on my face had managed to heal a bit.'Lefkós Lýkos.'The words filtered into my ear, making my eyes fly open. I quickly grabbed my phone, tapping on the Google icon,When I typed out the words, it took a little while but the answers popped right up. My eyes widened a fraction and my lips parted slightly,"Dahlia!"I jumped from my spot, frightened eyes falling on Paige. She arched a brow at my skittish attitude but I brushed it off with a shaky smile,"Come

    |SIX YEARS LATER|Castle Black, Pack Black Haven(Capital city).Another chapter. Another day, combined with hours of waiting and anticipating his return. It is cold, dreadfully so and it seems like no matter the amount of layers I put on, I will still remain frozen. Maybe it is because I am pregnant but Paige says I should keep warm, so the child wouldn't end up a white wolf as his mother. But I am doubtful, the doctor already said that one of the children will take on my gene, I only wonder who."Your highness!"Today, I had nothing important to do, asides settling a dispute between two neighbours who claimed ownership over a goat. Unlike what I'd expected, a Queen didn't have much duties asides making sure that the capital was in order. It took months to help the beggars on the streets and even longer to put an end to alleyway bag thiefs. I had to persuade the council to fund an open house for the poor and needy plus two orphanages as well."Your Highness!!"At first, they were skep

    Gorgeous.The girl staring back at me was so unbelievably gorgeous, it shocked me to the core. Her snow blonde hair was thrown over a shoulder in beautiful waves, golden flowers were pinned in different angles of her head. Her ruby red lips would put the colour of blood to shame and kohl-rimmed eyes blinked back at me."You are truly stunning, Luna Emma," The voice from behind me was almost starling and I tore my eyes away from my reflection to stare at Lady Calloway who had an expression of awe etched on her features.I smiled grimly, looking back at the mirror. The gown I wore was a shimmering blue, the same shade as her eyes. Although she truly looked stunning, her lips were pulled down into a small frown.I blew out a heavy breath, twisting around to face the woman in front of me, "Do you really think I would be a good Queen?" I asked hesitantly, chewing on the inside of my cheek.Lady Calloway smiled gently, crouching and placing a palm above my hand, "I think you will make a gr

    I stirred on the bed, stretching my limbs with a pop. My eyelids fluttered open, lips parting to release a drawn out yawn,I winced softly, rubbing my exposed tummy. My vision was a bit blurry and I squinted when I turned towards the window, the bright morning light shining in my direction."You're awake," I whipped in the direction of the voice, my lips pulling into a lazy smile. Theo walked around the bed towards my end and leaned to press a soft kiss on my head. He was still shirtless but had donned on a different pair of pants that looked a little bit oversized. His hair was messy on top of his head and there was a twinkle in his eyes, one I hadn't seen before. "Sleep good?" I shook my head, pointing between my legs, "I feel sore," My voice came out as a small whine causing him to huff out a short laugh."I knew you would say that, hence I prepared a warm bath for you,."I frowned at his statement. Warm bath?My question was brought to a cease when he moved his hands beneath my

    The hem of my robe dragged across the floor as I walked, the candle was resting perfectly on the inside of my palm and I had to keep from wincing every time the hot wax dropped on my skin. It was dark, the moon hadn't fully risen yet all we had as illumination was the dim light of the bulbs overhead and the large rose-scented candles in our grip.The lady in front stopped suddenly, causing all of us to grind to a halt. She turned to look at me and for a moment, the corner of her lips curled upwards. Lad Calloway nudged her head towards the close door,"This is his chamber, wait inside until he comes." I inhaled deeply before expelling the air. In one swift motion, I turned towards the door and tipped my chin in a confident manner,"Open it," I said, my determined gaze set on the embellishments on the wooden entrance.Tonight was the night everyone had been anticipating, including me. The mating ceremony was a revered ritual among us, it was when two people either chosen or fated mate

    I took in a deep breath after explaining, watching warily for his reaction. His face was gloom and drawn tight, there was a little furrow between his brows which meant that he was still digesting everything.Finally, he exhaled before shifting to properly look at me, "Why didn't you tell me? I would've ripped the bastard's head right off."I smiled wryly, tightening our conjoined fingers together, "Trust me, I wanted to do that too. I debated if killing was the best idea and then choose not to do it.""Why?" He asked curiously and I chuckled softly, bumping my shoulders against his."Because," I started, drawling in a tired manner, "For people like Hansen, their lives matter less to them but their prestige on the other hand?" I shook my head, "That's what their entire world is built upon." Theo hummed thoughtfully, his eyes glazing over. Suddenly he smiled brightly, throwing an arm over my shoulder, "I'm glad I have such a smart mate."I rolled my eyes, stifling the giggle that was t

    I stared at my reflection in the large mirror, my fingers playing with the silk robe tied around my waist. After the whole contest yesterday, I was brought into the Queen's quarters and was given strict instructions not to leave there until instructed. Apparently, I had to be cleansed and purified before the mating process began.The dowager had asked me to phone my family and order them to be on their way so they would make it in time for the coronation. That was this morning and I haven't picked up my phone yet,"Black looks good on you,"I flinched, whipping around to face the intruder. Theo was casually leaning against the wall, arms crossed against his chest and a serious look in his eyes,I frowned, puzzled by his appearance, "How-when did you get here?"He shrugged, pushing himself from the wall and stalking towards me, "A while back,"I sighed and turned to face the morrow away, my fingers still fiddling with the knot in front. When he wrapped his large arms around my waist, I

    "Should I be scared or nervous?"I gave the man a grim smile, pushing the small cup of tea towards him before grabbing my own. I gingerly took a sip, savoring in the warm sweetness that invaded my tongue instantly,"Which one of the two do you think is more appropriate?" I asked, arching a brow when he pushed his cup away, a small gesture but one I caught nonetheless.I gave him a look, one he not-so-politely ignored, clearing his throat loudly, "I don't quite know, you're no longer a contestant anymore but the mate of the Alpha and future Queen of the entire werekind. It would be stupid not to feel some amount of petrification." My lips curled and I slowly placed the cup back on the table, smacking my lips together, "I'll be straight with you, Lord Hansen," That piqued his attention causing him to lean nearer, "I called you here for one specific reason,"Something akin to uneasiness flashed in his eyes but he quickly concealed it with a cocky smile, "Do tell," "Jessica." I said si

    When I was younger, I always wished that I would get like my sister's colour of wolf. Dahlia was my role model, everything she did, I copied and she loved it too so it was only natural that I got her colour. But sometimes, in the secret I would wish for my mother's colour too, hers was a beautiful grey and I loved the way the fur looked underneath the moonlight. Never in my life would I imagine being a white wolf. A wolf so powerful, they were regarded as too much for the werekind. A wolf so special, they were rare to find.So why, why did the moon goodness find me fit to become one?My eyes flew open, burning so bright and powerful. It felt like the sun was scorching me from inside and I couldn't help it. A piercing scream ripped its way from my chest and I curled into myself,My wolf emerged like lightning, spearing through my entire system. My eyes flew open and I shook my head but I realized that I wasn't in my human form anymore.Jessica looked stunned, her jaw was hanging open

    The arena was filled to the brim, I was very much certain of that. They had used the same place as the first round where we had to go through different obstacle courses, the same place where I had purposefully broken my leg in a bid to avoid what I was presently doing.I looked around me, at the wild crowd cheering and crying. Their sentences almost inaudible since they were all yelling at once, excitement and tension pooled in my stomach,My eyes met my opponent's but she wasn't focused on me, her gaze was on the crowd. She was smiling and waving at them as though they were chanting for her, probably they were I couldn't hear anything either ways. I wondered if Lord Hansen had told her that his plan had flopped and there was nothing holding me back now. I wondered if she knew just how dangerous I could be once I shifted."Werewolves and shewolves," Lady Calloway spoke through the loud microphone that carried her voice round the entire auditorium.
