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
DOMINIK's POVI dropped the necklace down on the bed beside me as my attention was fixed on the drawer that was slightly open. From the open space, a little manila envelope popped. I immediately reached for the drawer and opened it up completely. My eyes went wide as I gazed at the heap of letters before me. I reached for one letter and tore it open quickly. I read the words and my heart dropped. The words were familiar, too familiar and the writing belonged to me.I tore another envelope open and read through it. I did the same for three more letters and the truth was evident. All these letters were the ones I had written and sent to Claire and Luis. How on earth had they gotten back here, to my room? I made perfectly sure that the letters were sent out.My mind was filled up with disarray and confusion as I gazed at the letters.“Oh? Looks like you found them,” A familiar, yet irritating voice rang through the room.I snapped my head back and saw Cora standing at the door, her hand
CLAIRE's POVMy consciousness was slowly coming back to me, but I felt anything but light headed. My head felt like it weighed a ton. I groaned and moved my body, but I felt immobile. I moved my hands, but they would not budge no matter how hard I tried.I cracked my heavy eyelids open and felt a sharp pain at the back of my head. My blurry vision cleared soon enough and the first thing my eyes saw were several pairs of feet. I looked up and saw my father, Enzo, and Freya, standing in front of me.They had not seemed to notice that I was awake, as they kept on conversing with each other. I could still subtly smell the harsh chemical Enzo had placed on my nose. I moved my eyes down to my body and to my surprise, I saw a large thick rope tied around me, holding me bound.My legs were bound together and I was unable to move them. My eyes trailed around the surrounding. The room was small with no windows or doors. The only illumination in the room was a single light bulb that blinked in t
