"I'm immortal, Liam," Jazmine blurted the words right out just after Liam finished his shower in the morning.
She had been gathering the courage to talk to him about it. But every time she wanted to talk about it, she couldn't say a word. She wanted to grow closer to Liam, loving him the way he loved her. But the miscommunication slowly caused a rift between them.
Liam stood there, repeatedly blinking while trying to dry his dripping wet hair. The rift in the relationship wasn't that visible for everyone else to see, but it was visible for both of them.
"How are you taking it? That I'm immortal?" Jazmine asked, looking at him.
They slept on the same bed. They grew accustomed to each other's presence, but the relationship had yet to move to the next b
# Jazmine's memory"Are you sure this is what you wanted?" Mira asked her.They visited Stefano together despite the latter being busy handling his Council and the berserk werewolves that slowly made their recovery. Still, they would never be able to live a normal life like before."Liam is all I ever wanted, and you know that," Jazmine replied. "One day, old age will consume him, and I'll have to live on without him. I don't want that.""You know there's a price to pay," Stefano said. "You have to lose your power in return for giving up your immortality. It means you will give up for Godly traits to be a normal mortal being.""I can live without having any power," Jaz
Five years ago, Liam Blake sat on his Harley Davidson bike in front of the motel, thinking hard. As he remembered that he hadn’t seen his sister, Anita, for a while, he figured out he wanted to spend some time with her before she went to college. Anita attended a boarding school right after her tenth birthday. She made it clear that she much preferred surrounding herself with the humans and wanted to live as normal as possible. Even though their parents disagreed with her, Liam persuaded them that it would be best to let her live the life she wanted. Eight years later, Anita continued to stay around humans. Unlike Liam, Anita didn’t have any duty obligation other than following the rules and laws in the pack. To the new pack members, they wouldn’t know Anita at all. They would have thought Liam was the only child in the Blake family.
Present Time, Liam sat there, looking at the wedding photo of Cohen and Mira hung on the office wall. His right hand supported his head as he turned his attention to another photo placed on top of the fireplace in the office. It was a photo of Mira in her seventh month of pregnancy. Now, the redheaded Luna was waiting for the due of her pregnancy which was expected in three weeks. It was the time Cohen had his happy ending. While everyone was happy for the Alpha’s couple, Liam’s story was no different. Everyone was expecting him to have a mate of his own as well. The same topic that plagued Cohen like an incurable illness now the same thing plaguing Liam. Now, it was Liam’s turn to avoid gatherings because he didn’t want to answer anything whenever someone mentioned a mate. Now, he understood his Alpha's pressure
Jazmine grabbed her work file and bag from her bed. She checked her appearance for a few seconds in the mirror before heading out of her bedroom. She walked down the stairs of the two-floor penthouse that she lived with Anita. The two of them had been living together since boarding school time. Jazmine walked down the staircase just to come upon Anita and her longtime boyfriend, River Clooney, who took a job in a law firm and was pretty successful. Anita worked as a model since the second year of college and pursued it professionally despite having graduated as a business student. She had covered several major magazines and was doing good at it. “You’re early today,” Jazmine said as she went to the coffee machine to brew a cup of coffee. “I’m leaving today for a business trip,” River told her as he sat down.
Jazmine's eyes couldn't stop looking at the photos on the screen of her computer. Her mind went wild. Then, the photo of Liam with a pregnant woman crushed her to the end. Her hands clenched and unclenched numerous times. Jazmine wanted to control her emotions, but she couldn’t. “Five years, Jaz. It has been five years. Of course, he’s married. Look, he’s happy and everything,” Jazmine said to herself to convince herself that everything was okay. Granted, she only met Liam once, but from that one meeting, many things happened to her. She didn’t dare to tell Anita anything about it. Looking at the photo like now, Jazmine realized she was nothing compared to Liam's wife. That woman—she was gorgeous. Jazmine slapped her own forehead. How could she still feel something f
Three hours flight and one hour sitting inside a taxi heading to Silver Light Pack, led by Cohen’s cousin, Janet Reese. But, Liam didn’t let the taxi take him straight into Silver Light’s territory. Instead, it stopped in a small town forty minutes away from the pack’s main territory. He walked along the empty road heading to the main territory, where he spotted a group of patrolling Enforcers. “Liam Blake, it’s been a while,” someone greeted him at the border. “Ashton, you’re looking good,” Liam replied. Ashton Mayer was the pack’s Beta. Liam used to train Ashton back in Cohen’s pack. Silver Light Pack was established ten years ago by several members of Cohen’s pack. They left Cohen’s pack because their mates were from a different pack. Not wanting their mates’ Alpha on bad terms with Cohen, they decided to make
When they arrived at the restaurant, Jazmine should have expected it to turn out this way. It was the fanciest and expensive restaurant in the town. She almost cursed to herself for agreeing to Jay’s dinner invitation. Their dinner was served a few minutes after ordering. Jay ordered most of the stuff. Jazmine didn’t bother about it because, for sure, he knew more than her. Jazmine sat there as Jay began to talk about his life, accomplishments, and family. He came from a wealthy family, of course. Everyone in the company knew how wealthy Bernard’s family was. His father, Gale, was a former state senator and a very successful businessman who owned hotels and resorts. Natalie Bernard, Jay’s mother, was a CEO of a multi-billion corporation. She inherited it from her father after he had passed away. As the only child in the family, she became a billionaire overnight with all the wealth. The association betwee
The next morning, Liam woke up earlier than anyone else. He had an alarm clock in his mind that helped him to wake up on time. Because of his fixed schedule in the pack, Liam was used to waking up early. Now, leading a normal life briefly made him feel utterly useless. Liam never knew a life outside a pack. He didn’t know what to do in all those hours.He just sat there on his bed, thinking about what he should do next. It was just four in the morning. That was his usual waking time. He would go for a patrol at four-thirty in the morning and then every four hours. That would take two hours. When he came back to the pack mansion, breakfast was already served by the pack’s cooks. Liam would do some paperwork in the morning and some training in the afternoon. He would do a last patrolling session of the day at six in the evening. By the time he returned, dinner was served. He slept at eleven in th

A week later,"Have some rest, Anita." Jazmine pulled the duvet to cover her up.It had been a week since the court hearing. Anita was discharged from the hospital and recuperated in the pack mansion. Jazmine knew that inside, Anita was grateful for the decision of the courthouse despite it still wasn't the happiest news she had received. But, Mira fought for her just as much as Luna fought for a fair justice system.# TrialJahan collected all the documents from the seven Councilors, and he was looking through them one by one—make sure everything was in order."3 Councilors are in favor of the punishment," he revealed, putting the three documents to his right. "3 Councilors are not in fav
Anita demanded the Enforcer drove her to the Council when she heard that the battle was won, and Rowan surrendered himself to the Council to answer his crimes. She knew that even though the Council was under a new system, there was still a high chance that she would never see him again, especially he was involved in the conspiracy to eradicate all supernatural species. Anita knew Mira was the deciding voter for Rowan's punishment. She was hoping that Mira would show a little bit of mercy."Rowan!" Anita shouted his name as soon as she arrived there at the same time as him.Rowan was handcuffed and escorted by Brandon into the building when she got there. They won the battle, but another one was about to happen—the battle for her mate. Anita was going to fight for Rowan if she had to. He was still her mate.Rowan kept his head low and murmured something to the Gamma. Brandon glanced at Anita for a second before he escorted Rowan into the building, and the g
For years, she lived as if she was a human. No matter how hard she tried, she could never be a human again. She was a human once, but now, she was no longer a human.She was the result of an experiment, something that was hard for her to swallow.Jazmine stood there in the back of her mind, surrounded by darkness. The loud voices had left her, and now, everything was in complete silence. There was nothing else left for her here. She didn't know what happened out there. Everything became blurry for her. The memories she had about her family and Uncle Richard had become a distant past and unreachable. She couldn't remember much about them anymore, as if someone deliberately erased those memories one by one."Jazmine...Jazmine...." Someone called from somewhere.Jazmine spun around and saw a beautiful woman dressed in white standing before her. Her hair was as white as snow and her eyes as blue as the sky. Her smile was dazzling, and her skin was glowing wit
# Mira's memory"The big boss is in there," Mira said, pointing to the tallest building in the realm.Sylas looked at her as if she had some loose screws in her head but remembering that Mira was the type of person who didn't shy away from dangers made Sylas rethink the plan once more."You're planning to kill the big boss?" Sylas asked.Mira didn't answer him. The entire plan had changed the moment Mira took the lead. She killed the Outer Angels along the way without feeling remorse about it. Nothing in the world could clean the blood that coated her hands since the day she decided to become Mira Red, the well-known redheaded huntress.This time she wasn't fighting for herself. She was fighting for Liam's happiness. Liam had sacrificed everything for her and Cohen. Mira thought it was about time she repaid Liam for that. She didn't care if she had to make a deal with an Outer being, but for as long as they got Jazmine back to Liam, that was all th
The doom shattered, but it wasn't quick enough to stop Jazmine from touching the Sword of the Doombringer. Abbadon's sneer laughter echoed throughout the realm, stopping everyone on their track. Jazmine was holding the sword with her head hung low with her body trembling as she laughed wickedly.There was no hint of the real Jazmine anymore. The laughter sounded like thousands of voices combined, and it sent shivers down everyone's spine. Abbadon looked pleased even though the outcome wasn't what she had anticipated, but it was better than nothing.Combined with Mira's dark manifestation, Jazmine's soul became corrupted, and she fell into the darkness. With the sword of the Doombringer's influence, Jazmine strayed further from the Path of Light."Mira," Cohen called as he stood next to his mate while the Alpha's heirs stood behind them."Luna, what's going on?" Liam asked.At first, it was the battle against the Knights of Death. Now, it was a batt
Jazmine grabbed the chain from the ground right before Abbadon swung the Sword of the Doombringer to her. The chain wrapped around the sword, and Jazmine dodged it just in time. As her skin continued to make contact with the chain, a voice inside her head laughed at her as if something had possessed her.Jazmine pulled away, staggering. The laughter grew stronger inside her mind. Something dark was lurking at the back of her mind causing her to be unable to think straight. Once in a while, the scene before her eyes kept shifting to a darker scene. Jazmine fell to the ground with her hands clenching. What was happening to her mind? Why did she keep seeing the destruction of the world? Why did she keep feeling the blood coated her hands as if she killed those people with her own hands?"Luna," Liam called as if he recognized what was happening to his mate. He looked to his side and noticed Mira was looking at Jazmine with intense eyes.The werewolves and their all
# Cohen's memory"Demon wolves," Stefano revealed to them the nature of their pups in Mira's bulging tummy. "All three of them are going to be born as demon wolves."Worries plastered on Cohen's face when the words sunk into his mind. This wasn't the first time he heard that his pups would be demon wolves when they were born. He had suspected it long ago, and also, Clavier hinted him the same thing. Hearing this suspicious had just added more worries in the Alpha. Not only because Clavier told him his pups would be stronger than Mira, but he also mentioned that the pups would be harder to control."This is very a rare case," the High Lord continued, "I've seen many births of hybrids during my time. They were either born as one of the parents' origin. Take an example of a hybrid of v
