CASSANDRA'S POVMy eyes widened as I stared at the portrait in front of me. Why did Julius look so much like me? Why was she even bearing the name of a man? I was beyond confused. My gaze lowered to her chest and I noticed the necklace in my hand on her chest. I squinted my eyes as I read the details. Julius Ammy, since the 19th century. They were both from the 19th century. I wondered, did they have any form of relationship with each other? Julius didn't look like a vampire though. My curiosity increased. Could she be a witch or a werewolf then? What did this necklace represent? Why was it all so familiar? Did I lose a memory or something? Why was everything, even the smell here familiar? The necklace...did I have to keep moving? I turned to my left and couldn't see the end of the passage anymore. The lanterns and the markings obviously began from here till the entrance. I'd rather not go further from here. I tilted my head, staring at the portraits and dusted the details. The por
CASSANDRA'S POV It wasn't all clear to me just yet. Questions kept running through my mind about Julius. Why did she have my face? I nearly lost it when I se how my eyes on her portrait. Was there a history behind it? Were we perhaps related? But her surname wasn't the same as mine. Who was Julius exactly? There was certainly no way that woman didn't have any detail in this book. Why had the moon goddess chosen me to search for answers? Why was I chosen? Was it because I looked exactly like her or was it something else? Was it because I was Lycan? According to the history of werewolves, it was rare for a female to be a Lycan. Lycan blood majorly flowed in the vein of the male wolf before it finally reached the stage of development. That was when the lycan breed that had been momentarily concealed would finally form. I kept furrowing and releasing my brows as thoughtful questions came easily to my mind. These questions evaded my mind. But then I looked down at the book in my hand. I
CASSANDRA'S POVHe flipped me over and I heard him loosing his belt drop before he flung it to the floor. He slapped my ass, causing me to bite my lips. Then I felt his big dick going in a little before pulling out. He entered slowly before pulling out again. Sighs escaped my lips unintentionally at the pleasure. I moved back a little but he stopped me from moving further and continued to tease me."Alder." I called a little out of frustration."What do you want baby?" He asked and I moaned, taking my bottom lip in between my lips. He eases himself into me again, and just when I thought he was going to settle, he pulled out again and I groaned."Stop teasing.""You might have to beg me to baby girl." He said and rubbed his finger on my clit. My walls clenched and unclenched. Proving stubborn, I shifted back instead trying to feel him but he slapped my ass again and I felt a warm liquid escape from my clit. My breathing getting heavier with my cunt aching. "Stop being so stubborn." He
CASSANDRA'S POVI navigated through the maze like forest, my senses alert to every sound and movement. As I found myself embarking on a mysterious journey, going by what I had read in the book. The necklace possessed ancient powers and according to the book, the necklace was hidden within the depths of the dark forest. And I thought, dark forest? I'd never been to a dark forest and that of course made me believe that was probably where the answers to my questions were. So I ventured into the forest, the trees towered over me like sentinels guarding a well kept secret. As I ventured deeper into the heart of the dark forest, fear threatening to grip my chest at the unpredictability of the environment, a sense of enchantment surrounded me, and it was nothing more than a dark enchantment, overwhelming me...I could feel the shadows brushing against my skin as though they were observing me. My breath hitched as I continued to shuffle along the path of the forest. I watched the shadows float
CASSANDRA'S POV" Do you want me to stay with you?" Alder asked worriedly and I rubbed my plan on his cheeks." I don't want to disturb you. You must have a lot of things on your hands." I gave him a small smile and he nuzzled my hand with his nose." I'm not too busy for you, My Queen. I would leave everything in a heartbeat for you." " I know. And so will I." His hands rubbed the base of my neck and he pulled me into a deep kiss.He broke the kiss and his eyes glazed over " I've told the guys to wrap things up and we'll continue tomorrow." He moved away from me and pulled off his clothing before lying on the bed next to me.Our naked bodies were flushed against each other and he absentmindedly stroked the side of my hips " Will you tell me what your nightmare was about?" His lips said against my neck and my body suddenly turned hot." I was in this weird cottage…similar to that old woman's…but it wasn't her…and she was telling me about the necklace…"" What did she say?" He raised
CASSANDRA'S POVThere were so many things on my head at the moment, as I was caught between searching for the necklace and just letting it be. It took three days for the ache in my head to stop. What had happened yesterday was still embedded in my head and I didn't want anything like it to happen ever again. I glanced at the necklace, the way the crystal glowed and how the clouds within it flowed. I'd never seen it do anything like that before. I stalled towards it with furrowed brows. I was getting terrified, the necklace was beginning to scare the lights out of me. I couldn't even wear it but then...I glanced at the mirror beside it and it seemed to wave. I shook my head before looking at the mirror again, but it was normal. It was probably just my head. My eyes met with the ones in the mirror, and the longer I stared at myself, the more I noticed something strange. Why was I looking do different from...my eyes were e glary, almost like a blaze of fire in them, I could see the fier
ALDER'S POVI couldn't believe that I'd allowed myself to get tricked. I loved Cassandra so much I didn't want her to keep on going through all these. My approach was careless. There were moments when I would notice a glimpse of her eyes reflecting through that of her Lycan. It made me wonder though, when did all these happen. Why was it happening. The necklace obviously meant something, obviously had something to do with something quite sacred. I was terribly hurt at the moment, and when I noticed that was wasn't healing in any way, I just knew that I was poisoned. Why would anyone or anything possess her? What was the mystery behind that necklace. I couldn't help but think that there was something she was hiding from me.The old woman had claimed that there was a book behind all these, but we still hadn't found the book. I noticed she was no longer making any attempt to search for the book and that got me even more suspicious. El and I hadn't been quite driven to know what the book
JULIUS' POV The old witch stood in front of the mirror, adjusting her gloves as her hands trembled. The shadows waved around her like puppies clinging to their master. After centuries of waiting for this day , the coven had always brought me discomfort, causing me to contemplate my whole existence. I was a cursed being, ethereal and ephemeral. All the deals were made by the council if I did not fulfill the oath. I was that desperate. I had to be desperate or there would be no drive for me. Being in this sort of position was something I never imagined to be. The coven wanted more than I had to offer. Like a leech they clung to my body and whispered in my ears even while I was yet in my grave. I had to succumb to their wish, the penalty for not being able to do so was one I didn't want to ever experience. The ordeal sight of it got me trembling, especially after seeing others who had failed to fulfill their oath. This is the reason I had to do what I had to do. And to do it with force.
