And our new Character is here!!!! Abasha! … and she’s already throwing blows. How do you guys like her¿ Haha… let’s see what happens next, shall we¿ See yA!
{Ciril’s POV}I crashed to the ground roughly and bruised my knees but that wasn’t the most disturbing thing.The most disturbing was the fact that I had just been dragged from the Quarters to the courtyard, embarrassed along the way and now I was knelt before the person I least wanted to be beside. — I didn’t know it would only get worse.“I am made to believe that the Prince didn’t reject the slave girl.” I heard the Abasha girl say behind me and then immediately, my heart started struggling to break out of my chest with harsh pounds. My breathing stiffened. I promptly swiveled around to look at Abasha now and I met a cunning smile on her lips. I tensed as waves of shock and dread poured through me. How did she find out?“Is that so?” The Alpha Queen said now, her voice calling my attention back to her. I promptly bowed down my head in mercy and to avoid making eye contact with her especially since my eyes were becoming teary. “Yes, my Queen.” Abasha responded.“And how do you k
{Ciril’s POV}“Oh, you thought I didn’t know?”Those words crashed into my consciousness like six daggers rather than six words. I trembled with more fear than I thought was possible now— on a hot day, I was shuddering. Abasha knew.She knew all along and she was casually here, trying to make me mess and lie… which I had just done. “Interesting.” The Alpha Queen muttered for the second time today. I turned to look at her but I didn’t know who to focus on anymore. The Queen was powerful and cruel and this scared me, but then, with the few things that had happened today, I was made to realize that Abasha was dangerous.Very dangerous.I swiveled back to rest my gaze on Abasha as she started to laugh and address me now. “Look at how edgy she looks.” She said while she chortled. “You’re literally convulsing. Your slave hands are shaking.” She added and laughed some more. Fresh tears streamed out of my eyes. “Guilt.” The Alpha Queen commented and then she faced Abasha. “Explain to me
{Ciril’s POV}Vera stunned all of us with her presence. — me especially.And she stunned me more with her words. “She wasn’t in the Prince’s room… because I was.” She said and I trembled as waves of dread and confusion poured on me.The Alpha Queen looked from me to Vera and then to Absha before she looked back at Vera.“What are you saying, girl?!” The Queen bawled at her and I flinched in reaction. I promptly looked back at Vera dreadfully wondering the same thing.What was she saying?What was she even doing here? I tried to call her gaze to myself for her to make eye contact with me but then she wasn’t giving in. She was consciously avoiding my gaze.“My Queen. I’m here to confess! I’m saying that I was the one in the Prince’s Chambers yesterday.” She said and I started shaking my head gently to signify a no. I was disapproving but she was intentionally not looking towards my axis.My heart started racing faster now as I stared between the Alpha Queen and Abasha. They were both
{Ciril’s POV}** Abasha, The Queen…With tears in my eyes, I scowled in intense anger as I rested there on the ground, staring at Abasha’s retreating body.I wiped away tears from my cheeks and I rose up to my feet. And then I shifted. I shifted into my werewolf form for the first time in a very long while. And a loud growl escaped my lips before I started darting toward Abasha.I didn’t have the time to be shocked that I had shifted to my werewolf form as all I could think of was tearing Abasha to pieces..I growled fiercely as I raced towards her with deadly haste and then she spun around to look at me. She grew a gentle smile as I got closer. All I wanted to do was to rip her lips off from her face so that she’d never smile again, but just as I got to her, just when I lunged at her with sharp claws to fulfill my aggrieved desire, Sentries from left and right jumped between us and held me. They wrestled to restrain me.I struggled back.They were two Sentries, and they held my arm
{Ciril’s POV}I spent all night plotting an escape from my room.Prince Landon had told me that if I told the truth they would still kill Vera and they would also kill me and I didn’t doubt him because we were slaves and the lives of slaves weren’t universally important.But I couldn’t just sit back and do nothing while Vera suffers for a crime she didn’t commit. I just couldn’t.Now, it was morning the next day— which meant that there was only one day left before Vera loses her head. And I was still helpless.The Sentries who were guarding the door were doing it very strictly as they didn’t even leave for breaks or strolls, considering the fact that they were guarding a slave’s door and not someone noble.I paced around the room helplessly now and mistakenly stepped on a meat piece from last night’s food splattering. I frowned at that. I then went to sit on my small bed at the corner of my room and my mind roamed to Feryt— my best friend at RawHowl.Vera is just like Feryt. They ar
{Ciril’s POV}The morning came with a new wave of dread.My sadness and alarm were on a different level, knowing that this was the day Vera would die if I didn’t do anything to save her.I had to do something. I was in my room now, still chained to the foot of my bed and I was just throwing random stares in the direction of every sound that I heard.I was hearing a lot of sounds— noises of different people talking. People seemed to be passing by, chatting and laughing. Maids seemed to be in a jolly mood as I could hear in their voices as they trailed by and then Sentries seemed to resonate the same idea—and soon it hit me.My memory was elicited. Today was the Alpha Prince’s wedding with that cunt. I had almost forgotten. My annoyance doubled over now. I felt a fit of intense anger due to the fact that we were being scourged while Abasha was getting married to my mate. I was helpless and could do nothing to stop the process but I couldn’t help but feel offended and aggrieved.The
{Ciril’s POV}** Abasha, The Queen, Taka, Balizar…Abasha, The Queen, Taka, Balizar…Abasha, The Queen, Taka, Balizar!I was in my room now, seated in the silence of my melancholy. I hadn’t uttered a word in a day or two— because I hadn't gone out in a day or two and hadn’t eaten in a day or two. After Vera had been slaughtered in the presence of people who condemned her, I had been left chained up on that field for a while and then later Abasha had come over to me, telling me how powerful she was and how unfortunate I was in return. I hadn’t really paid much attention to her but she had vocally ridiculed me to her fill and then she had set me free from those chains.I was supposed to go and immediately resume my duties as a Palace slavegirl but instead, I had come to my room— mine and Vera’s room and had locked the room…. And I have been here ever since.So I don’t know if it’s been a day or two, but I’ve been seated in the silence of my melancholy for that long. I keep replaying
{Ciril’s POV}I didn’t want to get into any trouble or be caught, but at the same time, I couldn’t resist Prince Landon.… as much as he couldn’t resist me. He had snuck up on me and grabbed me and just that small bit of contact alone had sent galvanizing pulses racing round my body. And now, we were headed to my room in the Quarters— I was holding his hand and leading him like he didn’t know the way to my quarters.“I know the way to your Quarters, Ciril.” He said and I shushed him. This wasn’t about him knowing the way or not, this was about me being very cautious on the behalf of both of us— but on the behalf of myself mostly, because if we were seen together, it is quite clear that I would be tormented and punished while the Prince will face absolutely nothing. I would lose my life if we were caught and Abasha would finally win so I wasn’t going to give any chances to carelessness.After some heart-racing and sneaky moments, we finally got to my room in the Quarters and thankfu
{Ciril’s POV} ~ Three Days Later ~ I was standing in an open space. It’s been two days since that incident at that Neighboring Pack, Grayvel and I haven’t stopped thinking about it.— Or feeling good about it.Lives had been lost but it felt good knowing that I had made a difference.Yeah. Another thing to feel good about was the fact that I was beginning to make improvements in my training…“Okay, Ciril. Are you ready?” Clord asked me as he stood before me in the open space, wearing so many layers of clothes to the extent that he looked like a fat mannequin. He couldn’t even move properly. He was scared of me and emotionally scarred by me and Rowan had bid him to train with me today so that I could gain his confidence by not losing control and killing him once I went into the Celestial State. I was learning how to control myself. After almost killing Feryt and realizing I might mistakenly kill someone else in the future, I made it a must to have control of my powers so Clord
{Ciril’s POV} It started to rain… and it took me a moment before I could register this.I was panting. I was panting hard.And then I was raging. Nothing was happening anymore but I had a sea of anger bubbling within me. The water started to splatter on my skin now and I threw my gaze up to glare at the skies like I wanted to attack it… but then I realized that it was just rain so I calmed down, and then I sighed.I poured out a heavy breath and stared at my body as the rain started beating me more furiously, washing all the blood that bathed my skin and clothes. I was still heaving and my claws were still out, but soon, with the chill of the rain, I calmed down and my eyes went back to normal. I blinked. I looked away from my claws now as I retracted them and I looked up to see all the dead bodies of Ferals before me— presented as disintegrated rotten flesh, splattered at random points on the ground.I drove my eyes about the scene as I took the sight in and then I heard voices s
{Ciril’s POV} I didn’t want to go… but I had to.People were in danger. And even if I wasn’t the Reignile Champion, going to help people in distress was the right thing to do, so this was the reason why I got up.Clord?Closed felt like he had no reason to go. He was strictly hesitant until Feryt poured on him one of her death glares and threatened to come to him. And so now, we were all darting through the woods, being led by Rowan towards the Pack in question. As we drew close, I started to hear screams that made my heart quicken its pace at once as I realized how serious the situation was.We took some turns and soon the Pack came into view. My heart…I saw people racing helter-skelter and then I saw some other people dead so that I tensed in fear. Clord, Rowan, and Feryt were several paces before me now as when I had caught sight of the scene, I had slowed down and started pacing slowly instead.I was overwhelmed with the sight.I knew I was to do something to help but at the s
{Ciril’s POV} I saw Abasha and I instantly trembled. She was someone I would never expect to see out here, but there she was standing at a fair distance away from us, smiling. My heart started to race…… and all the traumatizing memories of my doleful past started to come back to me.Fear claimed me.— Its chilly claws seized my lungs as I stared at her instead of helping Feryt or checking how badly she was injured. She rose up to a sitting position some seconds later before I realized that I had totally forgotten about her. “Feryt. Are you okay?” I promptly asked her now, forcing my gaze away from Abasha but still conscious of her presence.“I’m not.” Feryt complained while I helped her up, my eyes now back to monitoring Abasha. I didn't pay attention to what Feryt had just said and I ended up letting her go untimely as my entire focus was on Abasha. I had a scowl on as I stared at her but then my heart was really racing fast. Abasha soon noticed this as she stood defensively b
{Ciril’s POV} ~ The Next Day ~ A little recap from yesterday’s emotions hunt around RawHowl…Once I got into the Alpha Mansion, I tore it down.-End Of Recap-Sigh…Yesterday's events had put me through a lot.The first day we had come here to RawHowl, I hadn’t experienced any emotion that disconcerted me but then yesterday, as we started to go deeper and towards the more sensitive parts of RawHowl, things started to get more twitchy… and when we had gone to the Alpha Mansion, I had exploded.Literally. I had told Rowan that the Alpha Mansion was the most sensitive place to me and I had been right. I had been breathing crazily fast and waves of anger had stormed me once I stepped foot into the wretched place.And now, it was crumbled to the ground— All 10,000 square feet of it battered to dust. In addition, I had almost killed Rowan, Feryt, and Clord in my raging. I had almost buried them along with everything else in the Mansion but fortunately, the three of them had managed to es
{Ciril’s POV} Tears bathed my eyeballs as we went around RawHowl to see how broken and destroyed it was.This was the second day of doing this. We had gone around yesterday, and nothing in me was triggered so Feryt decided that we went around today also. And now we were doing just that. We were going deeper into the heart of RawHowl, towards the area where the Aloha Mansion was situated. And as we went now, something was beginning to happen. — while the others saw how broken down RawHowl was… I only saw how much it broke me.I was getting flashes from every angle and they scourging my being. If I didn’t know Feryt as a good friend from my childhood days, I would have definitely misinterpreted things and thought that she purposely brought me here to scourge and punish me.I was pushed to the back of the line now as I was walking slower than the rest of them. I didn’t want to do this.RawHowl was torn down by the Ferals— it was turned into a ruin due to the Feral’s rough and Britis
{Ciril’s POV} ~ Two Days Later ~ “What are you guys doing?” I asked as I came out of the cave to see Clord, Rowan, and Feryt chattering around the sitting wood blocks. It was morning time and I was apparently the last one to wake up from sleep. Even the Bears were up before me. Did I mention that those two Bears were now staying with us?Yeah. For some strange reason, they hadn’t left us since they followed us back to the Cave two days and for some stranger reason, they were now acting like pets rather than the Ferocious beastly creatures they were— especially to me. They were very drawn to me.“Nothing serious.” Feryt responded now as she got up to her feet to face me. “Clord was just explaining the details of how he thinks we could get you to enter your Glowing State.” She explained while I brushed my fingers through the dense but smooth furs of the Bears as they both strolled before me in a form of greeting. They rubbed their bodies on me as they went by before going to lie arou
{Ciril’s POV} “Feryt?” I muttered, not believing my eyes.And then my eyes told my brain that I was in a new environment so I proceeded to not believing my brain also.I grew very confused.I impulsively looked to my left now and saw Clord and Rowan standing there and looking at me in a weird way. That was strange and disturbing but then I looked to my left to meet an even more disturbing sight. Bears…Two Bears were positioned there.Two mighty black Bears— not attacking but just snarling and staring at me. It was all they did but it was all I needed to be more jumbled up.I didn’t understand this scene in the slightest and to make it even more confusing, standing before me was the person of someone I doubted I would ever get to see ever again.“Feryt?” I said her name again, contemplating if she was real, and with that, she started to pace closer to me with tears in her eyes and a matching expression of doubt and confusion. Instantaneously, she looked fearfully to the side where the
{Feryt's POV} Two fortnights (four weeks) ago, I didn’t ever think I didn’t ever think RawHowl could get worse than it already was.I grew up in RawHowl and grew up under the cruel rule of Dolores and her hateful husband as the Alpha and Luna of our Pack. To make things worse, I had a best friend who I watched get tortured every day of her life until she was eventually sold off to slavery at the Palace.It was slavery but I knew it was a better fate than RawHowl. Hence, I was separated from my best friend in that manner and was left with the oppression of Dolores and her husband to deal with. I thought both of them were demons until the Ferals attacked RawHowl and took over RawHowl.It was then that I experienced real misery as everything went into disarray at RawHowl. Fortunately, our cruel Alpha had been killed by those monsters and although this was good news, I also lost people of my own…I lost my entire family to the Ferals.My father, my mother, and my two kid brothers— they h
