CLAIRE's POVThe warrior standing in front of with bloodshot eyes and a menacing smile swung her blade at me. I reacted fast and squatted down, causing her blade to fly over my head with great speed. The woman with large wings hollered and raised her sword up in the air.I watched in horror as she swung it down towards me. My body began to move on its own. I rolled to the side and her blade came landing on the floor, the spot where I had been crouched down. I stared at her blade in horror.Her eyes snapped to me, and her grin slowly disappeared. She seemed displeased, that her blade had not cut me down yet. I did not hesitate. I picked myself up from the ground and bolted away from her. She looked way out of my league, stronger than me.A part of me wanted to fight back, but another part of me could see the difference in strength. My magic powers would not stand a chance against her. I ran through the clan grounds, that had now become a battle field. I jumped over bodies and ducked pa
CLAIRE's POVI groaned and clutched my shoulder as more blood spilled from the wound. At this point, I feared that I would bleed out to death. "Claire!" I heard someone scream my name.I made a sharp turn in the direction of the voice, and my eyes fell on Luis. He ran up to me, his breath haggard and his face stained with blood."Are you hurt anywhere?" I asked as my eyes frantically scanned his body from heard to toe."I am fine, this blood is not mine," he replied with a nod.I let out a sigh of relief and actually felt stupid for worrying about him. I watched his eyes trail down to my shoulder and he frowned."I should be asking you the same question. Are you alright?"I grimaced and moved my hand aside. Luis went solemn as he gazed at the injury. He quickly sheathed his sword and walked closer to me. I watched him rip a piece of his clothing and he held the torn piece up to my face."Hold still, we need to stop the bleeding or you might die."I swallowed and nodded. Luis began t
CLAIRE's POV“Come in,” Bianca beckoned to whoever was behind the door.I watched the door slide open, and my heart skipped a beat when I saw Enzo walk into the room. He looked fine, and without a single scratch on his skin. It made me a bit skeptical on whether or not he actually joined in the fight.I could not help but notice the grim look on his face. It made me feel nervous and a bit uncomfortable. I shifted on the bed as Enzo approached us. He turned to Bianca and folded his arms.“I am going to borrow Claire for a while, I hope you do not mind,” My head snapped to him the moment I heard my name come out from his mouth. Why was he here for me? My heart began to race. Was he going to try and ask me out again? I grimaced at the thought.Bianca glanced at me and back at her brother. She went solemn and gave him a small nod. Enzo shot her a small grateful smile and turned to me. My heart almost escaped my throat when his hard eyes found mine.“If you do not mind, I need to speak wi
CLAIRE's POVAs I trudged down the hallway, I was slowly hit with the awful reality of everything that unfolded in alpha Enzo's study. The reality hit me like a blow, and I could feel my heart sinking to the darkest and deepest depths.I let out a shaky breath and trudged down the hallway further. I was still dumbfounded by Enzo's statement. How exactly had he found out that I had used my powers and how did he know that I joined in the battle? A lot of things were not adding up, but i could not quite lay my finger on it.But what did this mean for me? In order to keep my identity a secret, I had to lie to Enzo. Was he going to kick me out of the clan since he did not believe me? Or worse, execute me for being a hybrid? I swallowed at the thought. It was not quite far fetched seeing how angry he was. A chill ran down my spine, the moment I recalled the hot blazing glare in his eyes as he looked at me. It was fierce and for once, I was convinced that Enzo would hurt me.I walked down t
CLAIRE's POVLuis closed his room door shut quickly and exhaled.“The hallways are crawling with these wolves, I just hope they did not see us come in together, we definitely looked suspicious.”I sighed and propped my back by the wall, my eyes fixed on the large wall clock that ticked with each passing second.“I honestly hope not,” I replied.Luis strolled to the bed and plopped down on it.“What do you think we should do now? We can’t stay here anymore since the alpha already knows about your magic powers. It would be far too dangerous for you,” Luis said.I nodded.“We need to leave, and quick,” I said while chewing on my nails as my mind went into deep thought.Luis turned to me, his eye brow cocked.“But where do we go from here? We cannot go back to the clan for now.”I pondered on his question until it hit me. My eyes widened as a wide smile graced my lips.“The witches clan, we can go there. It is the perfect place for me since everyone there knows that I am a hybrid. It is t
CLAIRE's POVNight came quicker than I expected, and darkness had shrouded every nook and cranny of the clan grounds. It was finally time to leave and I carefully slipped out of my room and tiptoed down the hallway.I took careful steps out of the main building and tiptoed over to the darkest corner I could find. I placed my back on the wall, my eyes scanning the surroundings, in search of Luis.The whole ground was as silent as a graveyard. The wolves that were working on rebuilding houses and clearing up the dead bodies had retired for the day. It helped that no single soul was in sight, but that also meant that Luis and I had to be very tranquil, or else, we could easily draw attention to ourselves.I chewed on my finger tips as I impatiently waited for Luis. Worry began to encroach and fill my mind. Why was he not here yet? Was he alright? I pondered on these questions I could get an answer to.I exhaled to calm myself and slid my eyes shut. The only thing I could hear was the lou
CLAIRE's POV“And I, also trusted you,”The familiar voice caused my head to snap. My heart sunk even further when I saw Enzo walk towards where Bianca was. I could not help but notice the person walking beside him.My mouth dropped open. It was Freya, the omega that attacked me during the welcoming party. Why was she beside Enzo? Questions ran through my mind, and my confusion was at its apex. What on earth was going on?Freya looked at me, and a smug grin curled up her lips. She even took the liberty of sliding her arms and linking it around Enzo’s. This sparked further questions in my mind.“Alpha Enzo, W-What is going on?” I blurted out.Enzo picked Bianca from the floor, whispered something into her ears and Bianca scurried back into the main building. Enzo turned to me and I flinched at his hard, blazing gaze that seemed to hold a tenacity in them.“You lied to me Claire, and now you are sneaking away. If you had told me the truth, this would have been much more easier,” Enzo sa
DOMINIK's POVI sighed as I wrote the last words down on the thick sheet of paper in front of me. This was my tenth letter I was going to send out to Claire and Luis this week. I knew I was writing a bit too much to them, but I had become extremely worried since they never wrote back.In my letters, I made sure to state the progress and the current situation of the clan. After the announcement of Claire’s banishment, things were still heated in the clan. The wolves talked about the hybrid for days.It took a while to control the gossips and whispers, but eventually, it died down. It was taking me more time to completely burn out the whole situation and I found it hard to construct a way for Claire to become part of the clan once again.Thinking and making decisions by myself had become a huge chore, since I was used to deciding things with Luis. Luis was a smart man, and the perfect right hand man for me. He was not rash like me, and never let his emotions cloud his judgement. I could
