ElitaA lump forms in my throat, but I swallow it down and continue cutting into the steak, pretending his words didn’t affect me at all. I don’t want to give him a weakness, or he will prey on it, twist it, and manipulate me again.But…who am I kidding?A man who has lived for so long can read people like open books.“ I can keep you alive. ” Levian rests his chin over his fist and watches me intently. “ I can make sure you survive in this dead body. You can live a long life, Elita. How does that sound to you? Do you want to live? ”I don’t realize when the fork slips from between my fingers and the knife slices across my middle finger. I pause and glance at the blood on my fingers.It’s not warm anymore. It’s cold and dark. I stare at the drops pooling on the plate, and my mind goes numb. Do you want to live? Levian’s question echoes in my head on a repeat mode—It’s haunting.“ You must… ” I whisper, my voice barely audible to me. “ …want something in return. ”“ Not really. I am m

ElitaThe seat in front of me shakes as he moves at an impressive speed and appears beside me. I stiffen but don’t give him the satisfaction of seeing me scared.He grabs the back of my chair and turns it around. I suppress a gasp and look at his still chest, hidden under a black button-down shirt.“ How can you say that for sure? Even a dog becomes loyal when he is cared for. The Lycan Princes won’t be different. ” He leans down, his cold breath hitting my forehead.I crane my neck and meet his gaze, my nose brushing against his slightly. It takes some triggers to get him angry, and right now, he is fuming.I want to laugh and sneer. You wanted to manipulate me by offering me life. How does it feel to fail now?“ You keep forgetting one important detail. ” I smile, my eyes crinkling slightly. “ Dogs and wolves are not the same, Levian. You can not control Lycans by showing them a little care. They need a lot more than that. They have an innate desire for power and connection and mate

DustinI glance towards the dark forest before resting my back against the tree again. I don’t feel the need to go deeper into Levian’s territory.He will sense my presence from this far. And he will come to hunt me down.Conveniently, the curious girl will follow suit. She can’t stay put—I know for sure by now.So, all I have to do is wait for them to come to me.And even then, I don’t have to wait long.Because I can sense the dangerous aura closing in. I don’t move or leave my lazy spot as he appears a few feet away.Slowly, I turn my head in his direction and exhale a breath. He stops there and stares at me. But his eyes don’t have a usual dead look in them.His eyes keep switching to a bright red color. I must be really good to catch the emotions in his eyes—the most prominent being rage.“ Who made you angry, I wonder? ” I smirk, watching his jaw grit.Why do I even bother asking? Of course, it’s that infuriating girl. She has a knack for driving a knife into other’s hearts and

Dustin“ Levian… ” I raise my hands, and the water lifts in the air, forming a shield in front of me. The energy collides with it, and it shatters. “ …you need to stop underestimating me. ”He smiles, and the chaos erupts. It’s one attack after another, but it doesn't push me back. Every blow brings us closer, and it gives me the chance to sharpen the ice into little stakes, sending them in his direction.My veins bulge as the energy leaves my body quickly. The more we use these powers and hold off on shifting into wolves, the weaker I will grow. But it doesn’t stop me. Levian sees the sharp ice headed towards him and counters with the little waves of energy that shatter them in midair. “ What was the point of hiding yourself until now? ” He asks, his voice light as if he finds all this funny.“ If I didn’t do that… ” I send another wave of sharpened ice his way, and he counters it. “ how would I get to do this? ”The bigger ice stakes fall, but a small, sharp piece grazes his cheek.

ElitaLevian has taught me many valuable lessons in life. Everything I have learned, and have become is because of him. And right now, I am using his most important lesson…Against him.Hit someone where it hurts the most.If you know someone’s weakness, strike it until they become a crumbling mess, until they writhe and feel pain so intense that they forget about the rest of the world.And that’s what I have done. Just when I got to know that he was in no mood to let Dustin off the hook, I knew what I had to do to divert his attention.My luck is that he left me in his cottage—the place he has cherished for centuries because it’s his home, the place he refuses to leave because it will make him believe the world is a much lonelier place for him.It feels like a ruthless move to hit him below the belt. But he has brought me to the point of no return.That’s why, I grab a bottle of oil from the kitchen, stroll out of the cabin, and dump the oil in the flower field outside.The matchbo

Elita“ It’s a long way back to the Wolveshire Citadel. Are you sure you can walk back on your half-dead feet? ” Dustin asks, his tone tinged with a hint of amusement. I scoff under my breath, not even sparing him a glance. Just as he picked me up and got us back to our territory, using his exceptional speed, I found a small group of warriors awaiting us. He had brought them as a backup. He would have fought Levian while I had to retreat and get to the warriors who would take me back to the Wolveshire Citadel safely.What was he planning on doing after I was gone? I have no idea.Was he planning on dying at the hands of Levian? That thought is making me furious at him.Of course, he doesn’t give a damn about what I have to go through to keep him safe. Why would he even care? He is the same man who abandoned me into the lair of a demon to save his half-brother he doesn’t even give a damn about.He is all about duty, and his plans. He doesn’t care how it affects others, or how it hur

Elita“ How do you… ” My jaw hangs low. “ How do you know? ”My head snaps up, at last. Our eyes meet, and my heartbeat slows down. From up close, he is always so tempting, so…irresistible.And the fact that I can’t think of him as a statue anymore, the fact that his warm breaths ghost my lips, and eyes are staring back into mine…doesn’t help my cause.“ I am beginning to understand how your mind works. ” His voice is low, a dangerous edge to it.My heartbeat falls in my stomach before pulsing between my legs. “ Oh really? So you must know what I am thinking right now? ”“ For that… ” The corners of his lips curl, just slightly, and that little tilt sets fire in my veins. “ …I don’t need to know what’s going on in your head. I can just…smell it. ”“ What? ” Heat rises to my neck, my cheeks.“ Your arousal. ” He shrugs, averting his gaze to the path ahead. “ In your dreams, Dustin Landric. Right now, I want to squeeze your throat until you can’t breathe and send you to hell. ” I hiss,

ElitaI feel as light as a feather. It’s as if I am hanging in the air, with the familiar sparks surrounding me like a halo.My nose rubs into a warm neck. I nuzzle closer, seeking the warmth that’s so close to me.“ You brought her back. How did you do it? ” Someone is talking too loudly. It sounds like Alpha King Tyson’s voice, which annoys me.But my mind is too foggy.For the past week, I didn’t sleep too well. Because Levian lingered around.One night, when I woke up, he even asked me why I cried in my sleep. And after that, I couldn’t sleep at all. I didn’t want to cry when I was asleep and give him any leverage against me.A weakness in Levian’s hand would have been a disaster.But now, I feel at peace. It’s like I have returned to a place I consider safe, a place where my weaknesses will not be preyed upon.It’s a silly thought, but it’s the thought that keeps me calm and dizzy.“ How? What did you offer him this time? ” Another voice, sounding almost like Alpha King Striker’s

ElitaIt felt like I was on the wrong side of the war again. I was forced to watch as the vampires and humans entered the portal.Their cheers. Their excitement. The cries for victory. It haunted me. But I couldn’t do a thing.I couldn’t burn this whole damn place down and every single person in it to protect the people who mattered to me. I couldn’t even yell curses at them and tell them that they were going to lose this battle, and then their lives. I could just sit there and seethe in silence. It made me feel bitter. I wanted to leave this place and return to Dustin’s side, but Levian was looming over my head, making escape impossible.“ Let me go. ” I whisper as I see another batch of vampires entering the portal.They are…too huge in numbers. The werewolves and Lycans are outnumbered even with the help they received from the ancient wolf tribes. “ Let me go, Levian. If you are going to war, you should set me free and let me watch, shouldn’t you? ” I whisper when he doesn’t ans

DustinElita is gone. She was right in front of my eyes. And what did I do? Nothing.I couldn’t do anything.My reactions were too slow. It took too much energy to summon the force in me. And when I was dealing with my weakness, he took her. The weight of it crushes me. It’s like an invisible hand is squeezing my heart, threatening to make it stop beating any moment now. The moment I close my eyes, I see it again, the way her body vanished, the flicker of shadows swallowing her whole. My hands clench as I grip the reins of my horse.I have to get her back. It’s not a thought. It’s a vow. It’s a force that drives my every action.I must get her back right away. The gates of Wolveshire Citadel are right in front of me, but just as I am about to leave, someone calls out my name.“ Dustin. ”Avi.She and the others are just stepping out of the inner gate. I pause in my way, trying to scan them for any signs of what they want but my mind…doesn’t cooperate. The edges of my eyes have gon

ElitaI forgot to take the witch’s potion for some time.I was being careless. And the first sign of that should have been a crack in my appearance.But it’s not. I look down at my hands and notice the black veins that have spread everywhere, leaving no spot untouched. It feels…strange. Perhaps I became delusional. I thought the healing ability I borrowed from Dustin could fight off the curse on me. But that was just…wishful thinking.The truth is…He is not saving me. He is dying with me. I shake my head and down the potion in the vial. It’s not the time to dwell on it yet. Just a little more time—that’s all I need. Just some time. I clench the empty bottle in my fist and start walking towards the throne room. The witches have started teleporting the ancient wolf tribe to the North with the help of King Aleister and Prince Declan. Levian must have realized this by now. And he will not delay the war anymore.Just as I turn the corner, goosebumps rise on my arms. I pause beside

ElitaI wake up with a yawn and rub the side of my face against the hard surface I am resting it over.The familiar masculine scent fills my senses, making me smile to myself.“ It’s so comfortable. ” I mumble.“ Of course, it is comfortable for you. You only find comfort after you force me out of it. ” A sarcastic voice says.My eyes snap open and land on the empty lounge. The dim lights are turned on, and the Kings and Queens are not here anymore.“ Ha? Did I fall asleep here? ” I wonder, leaning away from the surface.When I turn to look where I was lying, I see a sturdy shoulder and then a narrowed pair of eyes.Automatically, my lips curl into a wide smile. “ Dustin. ”“ Elita. ” His eyes nearly turn into slits.My nose scrunches as I glance at the position he is sitting in. I remember I saw him in the same spot before I fell asleep.It was daytime when I blacked out, and now it’s night. How many hours has it been?Did he stay in the same position for so long? My body fills with

DustinI grit my jaw. I did say that. But that was when I had full control over my abilities. Now, I am not that same Dustin.I can’t protect them the way I could before. And I don’t want any of them to die on my watch. “ Times have changed and— ” I start, but Elita cuts me off.“ If you don’t understand that he wants to protect you by risking his life, his Kingdom, and everything he holds dear, then you all need to revisit your understanding of him. ” She approaches me and takes a seat beside me. “ he wants you to go back home because you can die here, and Dustin can not bear to let that happen. He is not being stubborn or stupid. He just wants…you to live and stay out of danger. ”A hand curls around my heart and squeezes it tightly. I look at the side of her face, watching as she narrows her eyes on Striker and admiring the way she looks—so fierce, so strong.“ Dustin, I know you want to protect us. But we want to do that for you too. Just like how you don’t want any of us to get

Dustin‘ He was waiting. ’ A voice whispers inside my head, becoming clearer than the other screeches that make me wince.‘ For what? ’ I tilt my head, staring the endless sea.‘ For your return. ’ Another voice shrieks. Something has made the voices restless. I take a sip of the wine and let the taste linger on my tongue.The screeches intensify, a buzz that is impossible to ignore. The pressure on my head increases, as I grit my jaw, trying to drown out the sounds.Just when I know it’s impossible, two tiny arms wrap around my waist and a soft forehead presses on my back. A switch flips, and everything goes silent.I look down at the arms around me. My lips twitch, a warmth I am not used to spreading inside my chest.She doesn’t know what she really does to me, for me. “ I am dead… ” She mumbles in a dramatic voice.“ I know that. ” My lips curl in a smile before I can realize it.“ I have been taking care of everything for you! Do you know how hectic it is?! I couldn’t even slee

ElitaDustin steps inside, his presence filling the room. He leans against the wall like he owns the place, his smirk lazy, daring me to react.He does own the place. It’s his favorite throne room—with a round table where he can manipulate his friends and other important guests—an alternative to the traditional one. But he has no right to smirk at me and look this good after he tricked me into leaving him behind.My blood burns in my veins. My breath comes too fast, and my hands curl into fists by my sides.“ What’s wrong? ” Dustin muses, his gaze raking over me as if he already knows that I am going to lash out. “ You tricked me into leaving… ” I snap, my voice loud with fury. “ You asked him to grab me and send me here. You forced me. I don’t like being forced.”Dustin’s smirk widens, dark amusement flickering in his gaze. He folds his arms over his chest, completely unfazed. “ I know. You can…make me pay for it. I will allow that. ”A violent shudder rolls down my back. I move tow

ElitaI was not wrong.After Tyson, Striker appeared the next day. Their return made it easier for me to get people to listen, but it didn’t ease my worry.I was relieved that Lenora and Amelia had their mates back. But where was mine? Why did he have to send me before everyone else?I would have been fine if he had sent Tyson, then Striker, then Aleister…I wouldn’t have complained even if he had chosen to go before me.But he thought…Oh! I should let Elita suffer instead of letting her spend her days in peace.I huff as I stare out the window. Six days have passed now. The warriors are stationed in their positions. They have Vitora flower, training to fight vampires, and even the will to keep guard all the time.I have already worked with some Alphas to develop a few things they will need in the war.The Kings have gathered their men, readying the Army needed for support.Princess Avery has somehow handled her parents and made sure they don’t come out of their rooms.

ElitaOnce again in life, I am forced to realize that waiting is the hardest thing to do.Waiting for someone is like dragging your body over a bed of nails. It is slow. It is painful. It does not kill, but it leaves me writhing. Time stretches, moving too slow, making every breath feel heavy, every heartbeat feel too slow.The worst part of it?Not knowing if they are even coming back, or if I am waiting for nothing, or if I should do something instead of just…sitting around and waiting. I pace around in the throne room, occasionally watching the vacant throne, then turning to the window that overlooks the sea. The water has been too calm, for too long. It’s unnatural. It’s been…four days now. Four days since Dustin Landric forced me into returning to the North! And he is not back!I keep thinking…If I could get ahold of him right now...I would curse at him. I would strangle him. I would kiss him. And tell him if he ever did this again, I would hate him forever. It might be a l
