Cassandra's POV

It's been a week since I got back home for the summer break and I can't help but be glad I came home. It feels so nice to have a home to come back to. My parents are here and my loved ones are happy to have me back.

I walk to the kitchen and pause outside the door the minute I hear my name on whispers. I walk back a few steps immediately to avoid getting caught, then use my barely there werewolf powers to listen in.

"It's her birthday on Wednesday, do you think she knows. ?" my mom asks someone I recognize by voice when they reply.

"Why would you say she doesn't know her birthday is on Wednesday, it's absurd" my dad replies.

"She's nonchalant and is not excited at all. She'll be 22, it's something to be excited about, all these past years that she's been with us, anytime it's her birthday it's just like any other day, and I keep thinking how long can she keep this up." my mother sounds genuinely worried and I'm perplexed.

Am I doing it intentionally? No because my

He excused himself over 30 minutes ago and he still hasn't returned. I attempt to wipe away the worry from my eyes but as I thought it was impossible because Elia drags me away from my very reluctant mom and whispers to me "What's the problem?'' she asks"I can't find Landon anywhere" I say and she raises a perfectly arched eye brow. "He just stood up and left?" she asked and I shake my head no"He told me and I allowed him to leave" I tell her. "Nothing strange happened, he received a call from his mother I think, because he called the person mother." "Then let's agree it was his mother then, he probably went to see them , get your mind off of it for a minute and pose prettily for the pictures or else your mother won't let us leave here till she has the best pictures " she says and I grin knowing how correct she is.

It must feel like lifting a hollow rock " he says thoughtfully and I sigh. "Dad please stop talking i

    Cassandra's POV Part of me knew I couldn't do it. Tell him that I had a mate and all that stuff, but the other half of me preferred to get the guilt off of our shoulders. I woke up early on coronation day and just laid there doing nothing.Not particularly nothing, I checked my emails and text messages, voice mails and even upgraded some apps in my phone. I knew my mother would come bursting through here any minute but I kind of liked it because it proved she was alive and healthy enough to make life frustrating for me. I heard the first cupboard bang and I sighed knowing I would soon be disturbed.I burrowed deeper under the covers and I sighed tucking my phone into chest. I started devising methods of getting out of today's engagement but I knew deep down it was very unavoidable. My doors opened and someone came in. The curtains opened and light shone into the room."You need to get up, I know you're awake" my mom says and I close my eyes ignoring her. "You're the one person I k

    Cassandra's POVToday was the day we hit the Sky Prowlers Pack. We were no more than 50 men, 30 women , a rather small army and what could I say, we moved in strength and not in numbers. We stopped the vehicles 4 miles outside the perimeter and we walked the rest of the distance. No one broke a sweat as we walked and it was so dark and quiet I was wondering if everyone was actually shivering in their boots about the mission or something.Half of us were dressed in tactical gear and the rest was dressed normally. A few guns and a number of silver coated knives and we were feeling hopeful. I could feel sweat drop down my back and I shivered in the cold but I had resolved my heart and mind. My family and my pack depended on this. "We're closer now " Mark the one in charge asides me , whispered and I nodded. "Just stick to the plan, we have all the information we need, from my memory and from spies in the pack. Just follow the plan and enroll the back up plan if the first one goes sout

    Cassandra's POV I open the door that leads into the room and see it is actually it's the Alpha's office. I let myself into the office and take it all in. Must have felt nice for Alder's father to sit here and banish my parents who were rightful owners to the seat of leadership and authority.I run my fingers on the table and in my mind's eye i see documents being signed here in a daily basis. The two chairs directly in front of the desk must have been filled by people who came to beg for one thing or another, a chance to feel power, mercy for their lives ones, for money or for opportunities. Two three seater couches facing each other with a glass long table separating them where dirty dealings were made and dirty plans finalized. I let myself sink into the chair itself and I feel that rush of power in my veins and in my blood like the final piece of the puzzle just got slot in and the gears clicked into place ready to roll and work.I note the presence of the drawer and tug it open

    Cassandra's POVThere's a murmur amongst the crowd and I shut it down before it gets bigger. "If you decide to interrupt me, I'll decide to end your lives and actually burn the pack to the ground. " I say and then there is that sweet beautiful silence once again. The silence that depicts of their terror and fear of me and this situation. Jack raises his hand and I smile. "Yes ?" I asked and he sighs."Is this supposed to be revenge for what happened to you?, are you going to take it out on everybody innocent in this pack, you were the one who went to the cliff but yourself no one dragged you there" he asks bitterly and I sigh. "As much as you're right I'll have to disagree with you. This isn't some silly revenge, well not exactly. I never thought I could have revenge until things started turn out this way. But fit clearer understanding if you're in your 70 to 90s can you please step forward." I ask and there's that murmur again but this time it moves like a wave from the front of

And now it seemed as though there was more to what was happening than just the illness that befell her. And then the curse, the dream that she had. I sighed as she explained she'd been seeing so many things these days and I was trying to understand what it was that she was going through. "Seeing things, like what?" I asked."Like that same dream I had. I don't know why I keep having images of you or Julius getting killed. I mean is there something I don't know? Is something after you guys? Are you running away from something? So many things had changed since the day you found this necklace. A lot more changed since the day you found this book."Her voice trembled as she tried to talk about what she saw and I knew that it must have been shocking, I I moved towards her and held her hand, cause I knew I was certainly going to see what happened... then the terrible ima

    JULIUS' POV Sabastian revealed himself from behind Alaric and I took a step back while Alaric, sensing him shielded him from me even though he was unfazed. "I see you two are finally enjoined.""What do you want Sabastian?" I asked."Oh, nothing much, just came to remind you of the oath you made. And you know it has consequences." Sabastian said, and I just knew I couldn't get off his grip easily. As Sabastian's words hung in the air, a shiver ran down my spine. I knew exactly what he was referring to - the oath I had made in a moment of desperation, when I thought it was the only way to save someone dear to me. But little did I know then, the grave consequences it would bring.My mind raced, desperately searching for a way out of this predicament. I couldn't let Sabastian have his way. There had to be a solution, a way to break free from his grip and nullify the oath. But it seemed like an impossible task.Alaric, still shielding Sabastian from me, glanced at me with concern in hi

    JULIUS'S POV I found myself back in the past, back to when I was discussing with Alaric. His eyes were teary and it seemed as though I was yelling at him to leave me alone and that I didn't love him but Sabastian. The glimpse of these memories kept coming to me and the times when I chased Sabastian and he just made my life a living hell. All these was erased from my memory? Then I saw the part where I kissed Alaric. I was obviously heart broken because Sabastian didn't treat me well. Alaric always stood by me and always called to me. He never once let me go. The tears rushed down from my eyes because of the pain I went through being with Sabastian. In the depths of my mind, memories long buried stirred like whispers carried by the wind. They danced on the fringes of my consciousness, elusive yet relentless. And as the echoes of the past grew louder, I found myself caught in a swirling vortex of emotions.This was a time of love and heartache, a delicate balance between two souls. Sa

    JULIUS' POV "There are so many mysteries poppinv out of no where's these days. I'm starting to think which one would we figure out?" Cassandra had heard about the news by me. And she wasn't wrong. There were indeed many mysteries. "Can you remember any instance where you both encountered?" I shook my head at her question. This vampire was new to me in every way. I wasn't even sure whether what he was saying was the truth.I stood at the mirror side, contemplating while Cassandra was pacing the room trying to think of probably what to do."Do you think he holds the mysteries to somethings? Perhaps he knows some truth about a matter. Would you try to find out?" She questioned and I contemplated. I wasn't so sure about that. Cassandra paced the room, her mind filled with questions and possibilities. The mention of encountering mysteries with this vampire sparked her curiosity even further. I could feel what she was feeling, could hear what she was thinking. She couldn't help but wonder

    JULIUS' POV I made my way under the tree branches and away from the sun, contemplating about could happen next and how possible I would be able to tackle it. The moon was out now and the weather caused me to breathe, but then I feared for Cassandra and her family. The doubts that suddenly threatened to consume me these days wasn't helping the situation at hand at all. Some times I just wished I would be ordinary, while living an ordinary life, with nobody's intervention into my affairs. Without having to worry every second of the day. I stared at the moon a little to long because without even knowing I'd stepped into another realm. This realm was one of power, magic, fortune, but absolute no peace or remorse from them. The funny thing was, I'd been introduced to something like this before by the moon goddess, and had no idea what it was that she was trying to show me. This camp...magic existed, power existed, fortune existed, but no remorse nor peace. Then something in my mind clicke

    CASSANDRA'S POVThe pain shot through my bone, causing me to jerk. And even though Alder was here with me I just couldn't get any relief, the pain and heat was all over even worse than my heat. Alder brought me close to himself and even though I wanted to snap, his scent didn't permit me to, instead it made me calm.As Alder held me close, his strong arms enveloping me, I could feel the tension slowly starting to melt away. His comforting embrace seemed to create a protective barrier around me, shielding me from the unbearable pain that had engulfed my body. His head was buried in my neck and I couldn't help but moan at the feeling of his lips touching it. I pulled him closer, not wanting him to let go, not even for a moment, and that made me wonder if I was really in pain or in heat. I was perplexed but didn't really have the time to think about it because of the profound pain. Alder's presence alone was a soothing balm to my troubled mind. With every breath, his familiar scent, a b

    CASSANDRA'S POV I paced the room whilst Cassandra kept staring at me with concern. My thoughts were running wild, mind was still unable to comprehend what was going to happen next. All I knew was that things were beginning to escalate. I was beginning to suspect Sabastian, he was definitely one of those who were after the necklace. I continued to contemplate, because I couldn't predict what could possibly happen next... "Perhaps there's a way around all of these. We can't keep sitting while there's something out there threatening to attack us." Cassandra said. "I was considering something...the vampires are yet to reveal themselves. Do you think there's something fishy about that?" "We all know that there's something tricky with them. They're cunning and wouldn't act upon their intentions unless the time is right." I stated. "Perhaps I can write the story." "No, you can't. I've written it already, so there's no need for that." Her words struck a chord with me. She was right; we

    JULIUS' POV I squinted my eyes as I noticed a figure from the distance through the window. Perplexed, I didn't know we were expecting any visitors, or perhaps it was one of the members of the pack? As the figure got closer this house I noticed the familiarity of it and was caught by surprise at the revelation that dawned upon me. Morgana had really outdone herself, bringing the dead back to life, ascertaining that her intentions are being executed. The figure I was seeing was nobody else other than Kathrine, and my eyes automatically shifted to Sabastian's. It was intended, he had called her here, he had given her that permission. And from what I was witnessing, she had a flesh, no longer a shadow standing in the dark. Now she was the person she used to be before she died. And I knew what she wanted, I knew what she was after too. My necklace. I stumbled backwards slightly at the profound feeling of the shock that was about to overwhelm me.
