Back in the comforts of the luxurious jet, I look sideways. Ibhaan has a poker face on as he does the cuff's buttons. His tie is secured lousily around his shoulders. I contemplate an opening line.

After contemplation of twenty minutes, I have concluded two things that I am expected to do in this scenario.

First, I need to apologise to him if I want to survive a day longer. I have already peeped into Huine’s blouse. (I'm not a pervert!) Poor things will have a tough time getting rid of the ugly scars.

Hickeys! They are called Hickey, you Eighth dropout.

Oh, damn! I couldn't have known it, O'wise one.

You wouldn't have known many things without me.

Gah!

I am not kidding, Liza. I challenge you to come up with a sorry speech. Oh, wait! Don't try. I will be sorry for your pathetic speech.

Eh, I already have one.

Yeah! And it goes like this— Hey, Alpha! I am sorry for almost invoking a war between the Vampires and your clan. You see, I am not the she-wolf you take I am to be. In fa

Lily? Poor Lily! What'd Kavish be doing with her? He'd always been intrigued by her. Could there be something that shouldn't be there? Please let me know what you think. Vote. Comment. Recommend.

    ‘What do you mean you are not going?’ Ibhaan retorts, equally exasperated. The dusk has already taken over the sky. We are home. His home and I am not going out of here before I have all the answer I need. Dear pseudo father, I am sorry! He throws his phone and laptop on the bed. I watch the sleek device bounce a couple of times before settling in the middle. The tiny notification lights blink at the top beside the camera. It vibrates with what I assume is an incoming message. ‘You know what I mean. I am not moving an inch from here.’ I counter, coming eye-to-eye. However, I instantaneously flinch when a pair of red eyes stare back at me. It's Nick. Ella grovels. Her hisses are venomously low. She slithers agonisingly. Her rage is my power. She yearns for action. I don't blame her. The creature is the most disgusting piece of shit one can ever come across. Ruthless, insensitive, dominating, cunning, selfish, murderer...I can stretch it till eternity. I can donate both of my kid

    Minutes roll over before the realisation dawns upon me. It comes crashing down in tangled emotions that are too much to divulge. A reservoir of untamed emotions crashes me from shore to shore. I was drawn into endless miseries that were nothing more than a death choke. He has hit me. I am enraged because I am startled. He wanted to hurt me. He despises me. I just wait for the smoke to come out of my ears. I want the rage to take over me. Why would he do that? My conscience wonders. I ask Ella but she ain’t there. Has he smacked my serpent out of me? Does he want me to see my rightful place? Is that what he thinks about me? A wild horse that has to be tamed? He wants to overpower me. But did he not say we are equal in our relationship? Weren’t we supposed to be friends? And friends don’t disrespect each other. They trust each. They have each other’s back. Was I too wrong in expecting all of it from him? No male is ever different. Everything is just a facade. You just have

    'Dear Lord, please tell me how to unexist?' I groan into the pillow, stifling a shriek that chokes my throat. Stop breathing. As simple as that! That voice again. Aish Bitch! You are goddamn pricking on my nerves. You wanna get your ass beaten? I retorted. Bold of you to believe I do not wanna die. It retaliates with the same sassiness. It's a million times better than being a Lycan with ya. ‘Who the fuck are you?’ I snap, bouncing up in a sitting position. The messy tangles of blonde hair fall all over my face. My hands still clutch the sheets tightly as I peek at a boo of my surroundings. The sun has settled down the seabed, leaving a misty tinge of tangerine and crimson after it. In the moonless sky, tiny stars twinkle in a cluster chain, marking the shape of a head. I neither have the energy nor the strength to figure out the creature. However, it does seem like a significant celestial occurrence. I do not care, which makes me wonder if, instead of an Empress serpent on v

    The dawn flicks its wings when the sun peeps through the dark clouds, breaking into another horrible day. I bathe in its rays and watch the night give way to one of the most dreadful mornings of my life. The invigorating aroma of coffee invades my nostrils. I am grumpy due to fatigue and exhaustion. Anger has drained me out both mentally and physically and tiny stars blink in my vision. I am not sure how long I can hold it within me before collapsing. Still, I am holding it together. How? Don't dare even ask me. Across me, the ferocious waves have subsided to calmness. Its tranquillity mingles with the shore in soft puddles. It justifies its name by being pacific for once. BUT, IT MUST BE ALL CHIRPY WHEN I AM STRUGGLING WITH AN INTERNAL STORM. The cleaning staff is busy collecting trash that has been flooded along the waves while health freaks stretch and chase around. I wish I could be as happy as them. I smack myself internally. Where did this come from? Throughout the ni

    ‘Dear Lord! Lizzy? Oh My God! What have you done to this room and yourself? Have you lost your mind? Lily is fine. We will get her out soon. We are working on it. At least give us some time.’ Her voice trails off as she takes a little tour around the room and panics. ‘Lizzy?’ I hear her wailing, questioning voice. Yet, I deny looking up and meeting her eyes. She has been my subordinate ever since I remember. One of the many magnificent Queens of our Empire. Had it happened pre-war, I would have been ashamed enough to bundle myself up and throw myself in the water. Now, circumstances have changed. Together, we have been through enough to get comfortable under our own skin around each other. ‘He hit me.’ I whisper in a barely audible voice but I know she has heard me. This Serpent heard me. Sierra lightly gasped. ‘Al…alpha?’ The disbelief in her voice piques me. What is so hard to believe, huh? Yes, it’s that damn freaking Alpha. My enemy and soon-to-be mated mate. ‘You are s

Look at me and just breathe.’ Sierra lightly slaps my face but it does not nothing to erase the image out of my mind. ‘Yaak! What the fuck? My eyes!’ For the first time in three days, I am not pissed off scrolling through the internet, I am fucking horrified and steamed. ‘What is in there? What did you see?’ Seh quizzed confused. When my wide eyes do not shrinken to it original size, she takes it upon herself to check the screen. And oh, my! Sierra giggles in amusement at my perplexed state. ‘You are horrified of this? Well…what are you exactly terrified of? Alpha or the dick?’ ‘SIERRA!’ I reprimand her. ‘What? I am just asking, okay. Why don’t you change it if it disgusts you so much?’ Sierra asks. ‘I don’t think you need to be reminded of what the Alpha is capable of doing or maybe he might have done it already. Since you don’t remember? Luna is quite hot though!’

    A tangerine has spread to the sky in the waves of voluminous illumination as the sun prepares to bid adieu. It’s too chaotic and crowded to feel the sensation of nature. Still, almost inevitably my eyes keep flickering back to the hovering birds twerking in the distance. ‘Umm…have I wronged you in any manner, Luna?’ Himanshu, the walking CCTV, asks through a mouthful of butterscotch with extra Choco chips. Sierra and I raise a questioning eyebrow at him. ‘You have been a bit cold with me.’ He explains sheepishly, averting his eyes to a she-wolf in a white bikini. Mechanically, my eyes follow his and damn! What a sight it was. She was shooting a yoga video. A natural calmness radiated from her face like anything. Her waist-length hazelnut hair flirted with the wind, a bit smug to have secured a position on her head. ‘Sexy!’ Sierra and I nod solemnly. Himanshu blushes crimson. Did I mention he looks absolutely cute in it. ‘He is cute.’ Sierra blurted it aloud, making his ch

    After rifling through the pages of ‘A short guide for impactful writing’, I reach out for the fourth one, cursing unique obscenities under my breath. I flip through it absently like the previous one and search for the significant content that could help me draft my own. ‘It won’t help you, you know.’ Sierra rolled her eyes at me. ‘Yeah! It’s not the title I am looking for. There are just too many of them.’ ‘I wasn’t talking about the book, Lizzy. I am talking about Alpha Ibhaan. It won’t help you. In fact, you’d be only more exhausted.’ ‘Help? Who said I need help? What are you talking about? I am working to get Lily out. Piss off.’ I growl, eyeing the massive wall portrait behind her shoulder. How did Ibhaan come in all of it? ‘He cannot come when he has always been there.’ Ella taunts. It has already been two days and I have never heard about anyone from anyone. But that’s okay. Like Whatever! Who cares if my wedding is scheduled and the entire Jindal Mansion is buzzin

    Did I follow the instructions and stayed glued to my spot like a little sweet girl? Well, to answer it…Has the earth turned upside down and the wolves become vegetarian? Have the Draculas stopped sucking blood and have witches become even a cent lesser annoying crapping rainbow? Has the moon wobbled its way to become a satellite of Mercury instead because it can’t absolutely tolerate the face of the earth and the faces residing on it? Nope. Nix. Naah. Nada. None of the sorts happened. Then would it not be a great offense if I stayed put on the spot near the itchy, annoying bushes that shiver for no apparent reason while whining amorous sounds loudly pleading for more and deeper? Don’t ask me why? I neither have the answer nor wish to peep around the bushes to figure it out because I already know and so do you. It simply does not make any sense to me. Why would somebody want to do it in the open? Since when snakes have become so rakeless and bold? Does it to you? Perverts

    Lizzy's Head:The sunrise is dazzling as the Alpha and I walk hand-in-hand along the seashore to meet the informer at the designated spot for the meeting.Dhariya is alive. Of course he’d be. Bitches don’t die that easily. The moment I heard all about it. I have been numb as if somebody had pushed me a tank full of iced water and closed the opening shut. It’s suffocating and vaguely overwhelming. All this while he had been alive yet he made no efforts to find me. What a son of a bitch!? A slow breeze flirts with my blonde tresses, sending them flying everywhere to the north. ‘He must be here any minute now.’ Ibhaan mumbles, checking his smartwatch for the seventh time. He leaves my palm and rubs it all over his arms. Ibhaan hasn’t been himself for my Lord knows how long! I couldn’t understand how he’d been dealing with the admin, especially after knowing his worst enemy and his wife is breathing anywhere near him. How had he reacted when he’d known his Luna to be someone who h

    ‘Emperor Dhairya is alive.’ I was told and surprisingly, I don’t care. I know it’s the worst news to know that your worst enemy (the Chatali’s worst enemy maybe) is breathing, seething, and ready to attack yet my mind cooks up better content to focus on. ‘Alpha, how was the meeting with the Lycan?’ Kavish asked me as soon as I walked in. To my utmost dismay, he was not sitting alone. The ‘Bastards Of Chaitali’ were already there with him. Munching on my snacks and chatting animatedly about some irrelevant and probably very stupid current affair. I had entered my study with such anger and irritation that Kavish preferred to be quiet but the ‘Bastards’ did not. I knew even with Kavish the peace will be short-lived. Being the Beta of the Taksh Pack, he had to gather courage and ask his Alpha, aka me, about the meeting so he could instruct his new favorite Himanshu to record it in the miserable book of Minutes. It’s not casual when the Lycan summons someone at urgent notice including

    ‘He said that?’ The familiar voice gasps in astonishment. It has to be a response to something the other soft mumble has said. And I’ve heard it before. ‘Yes.’ The aforementioned one, reply. Its punctuation is shaken a bit. I could tell it was said with a nod at another moment. ‘I would not have believed it if it were not for my own ears. It was Alpha Ibhaan and Alpha of that...I don't remember the name but he was a wolf from some pack. I saw him at Huine’s party. A whore for a wolf, I am telling you...he tried to hit on me. I cannot even tell you the thing he asked. He...he...I think we are doing it for nothing. This cannot happen. Wolves and ser-’‘It must!’ The familiar voice is firm with determination. She is not very pleased with what has ever been told to her. On anything, it was very upset as if it had been gravely offended. ‘I don’t care if he did something so...ugh! I don’t care. It is none of my business. What matters...what matters is that he does not get to know it until

    ‘They are coming?’ I informed my mate, forgetting all about Suzan in a moment. ‘Who?’ She grumbled irritatedly. Her mood swings have become a fresh concern but I’d rather ignore them. ‘My friends.’ I told her. And there were the last words we’d exchanged before my friends arrived in the Empire. In the evening, when they finally came—‘Come out, Bastard. I’m waiting.’ I inform my friend, Adrian on the phone after I park my car outside his hotel. I just do not feel like going inside to pick him up and go through the security scrutiny for that rascal. After all, he is the shitty piece of werewolf ever inhabiting the plant. ‘Coming.’ I growl into the phone and I do not need a gypsy to interpret his adventurous night in the mystical land. ‘You asshole, you did not get up yet. Did you?’ I clutch the steering wheel tighter, gritting my teeth. I knew it. I knew it was a bad idea. What was I even thinking in the first place?It is Sunday morning, and we have to go inspect some facts to r

    It somehow personifies the restless deep with me. I’m careless of the uncertainity of future or of what would become of my territory and the Empire or whether I’d be recognized as a Lycan, or whether my mate truly is an Empress in disguise that is, if she is—I’d be tantalized at the turns of events for it’s nearly impossible for destiny to be so on point. Very often my own thoughts surpise me! I couldn’t believe never once I thought of what might have actually become of Arin and whether the captured Serpent knows anything for whom my mate is ready to wage war. ‘She knows something.’ Kavish had recently grumbled his annoyance. ‘It’s just that she is so devoted towards her mistress and the Empire that she’d rather die. And I fear their Emperor ain’t dead too.’ And from that day on, there is always a new revelation concerning the Empire and its rulers. Some even claimed that they had spotted Emperor Dhairya lurking around and I all but want to giggle like a school girl at their excl

    Anxiety is the worst of chronic disease if it exceeds the threshold. In a way, it’s like sugar. It’s pleasant if in moderation but the moment it overloads, it’s gonna yell disaster. Moreover, the way it gives rise to desperation. It’s almost scary. My feet have grown a mind of their own. I no longer have, what do they say? Control? Precisely! I do not have control of my feet, my brain, my heart, and my body. Emotions, you say? It keeps dragging me back to the Empress’s palace behind the castle, looking down the tiny hill.The white marvelous colossal building with a fence of Deodar, Peepal, and maple trees has a magnet while my body seems to have an accelerated amount of iron. The natural laws do all the remaining work and I find myself strolling near the fountain outside the entrance at every chance I can get.There is something about the place that has captivated my heart. Or it could be the owner? Nope. Not the owner, but a portrait of the deceased owner. I just can't seem to

    Then, there was silence as…mum… well silency silence of a special silence. Arin stopped dead in her tracks, shuddering slightly. Even from a yard's distance I could hear her ragged breath. Sweat beads glistened everywhere on her face, neck, bo—everywhere. The wrath of the moments before subsided when the possibility of deadly events sunk in. ‘Damn it! I could have died.’ I was startled. The shot was ear-piercing enough to vibrate the walls of the castle. In less than two minutes, Shantanu was at my side and Himanshu and Siera were at Arin’s side.Himanshu had an impressive speed for an omega while Siera took her own sweet time, strolling near the igloo-shaped tree, huffing and puffing for every breath. I made a mental note of it. She was evidently unfit to protect Luna at this rate. ‘Alpha? Luna? Are you alright?’ Shantanu hurried once over to the guards. His flashy new fully-loaded toy is out immediately.‘Drop your weapons now!’ He commanded. ‘¡Señor! No era mi intención ofend
