Diana's POV

The following morning, I woke up early and got ready in a white jumpsuit. I never knew I’d say this, but I was excited to go to college. I never thought people could be kind and generous, but now my surroundings were full of kind people. Alpha Marcus, Clara, and Isabella.

Three people now, and three were in the past. Grandpa, Nanny Sophie, and Darren.

I miss them every day, every moment. Many times, I’ve considered returning to the packhouse, but what Darren and Charlotte did to me discouraged me. I wanted to leave, but only after achieving something.

I was looking outside the balcony and thinking about Darren when Clara’s surprised voice fell over my ears.

“Diana, you’re already up. This hasn’t happened in the last two weeks. Previously, you were always sleepy, insisting on staying in bed.”

“I had no will to live. Now I am clear about my goals and the steps I need to take to achieve them.” I folded my arms and turned towards the balcony again. The fresh air was calming my

    Diana's POVMonday,Today was Monday and the time for shift and combat class. Standing outside the changing room, I was nervous and scared. I didn’t want to be a laughingstock here. While I haven’t faced bullying lately, I know that once they find out; I don’t have a wolf. It’s only a matter of time before it starts again. My heart was pumping harder. Alpha Marcus told me to calm down and focus on training. He told me Raymond would go easy on me because it was my first time, but I was scared. Raymond didn’t know I lacked a wolf. If he ordered me to shift, everyone would see my reality and start laughing—and bullying—me.“What happened? Why have you not changed yet?” Isabella asked, coming out of the restroom. She had changed into a sports bra and leggings. I looked into her eyes. Maybe she had understood my hesitation and the pain visible in my eyes. She held my hands.“Don’t worry, I’m with you. We’ll pair up for training, and everything will go smoothly.”“What if he ordered me to sh

    Raymond’s POV “You’ll be fine. Nothing will happen to you.” Carrying her in my arms, I ran to the college dispensary. Amelia was already present there. As soon as she saw me, she approached me. “What happened?” “Look at her. She’s injured.” I put Diana on the dispensary bed. “Her belly.” I couldn’t speak more. I felt something stuck in my throat. “Oh my God, it’s a deep cut,” Amelia immediately started treating her wounds. She cleaned the blood with the alcohol swabs, but the blood wasn’t stopping. “Why is she not self-healing? Her wolf should be able to heal her.” She showed her concerns. “She doesn’t have a wolf.” Unknowingly, I clenched my fist tightly. “I need to stitch her skin to stop bleeding. But it’ll leave scars.” Amelia explained. “Hurry up,” I ordered as if I had some connection to her. She nodded and started her work. I sat on the right side of the bed and took her hand in mine gently. “You’ll be fine,” I caressed her hand. Upon hearing from Alpha Marcus that

    Diana’s POV A month later “Diana, why don’t you stay with me in the dorm, and we’ll go to the party together tonight?” Isabella spoke, coming out of the class. Tonight was the most awaited ballroom party. “I didn’t inform the professor, and I didn’t even bring my dress.” “No problem. You can tell him now. Go and tell him you’re staying with me tonight and as for your dress. I’ve so many options, and I swear those dresses are way hotter and sexier than your boring jeans and top.” She pointed her finger towards my outfit. “What is wrong with them? I’m comfortable in this outfit, and by the way, I wasn’t going to wear jeans and a top to the party.” “Then what were you going to wear a ball gown?” she raised her brow, folding her arms on her chest. “No, Clara bought a long-body coon maxi for me. She said it’d be perfect for a party.” “Forget it. I have got a better option for you. Go and inform the professor about your stay here. We’ll enjoy a lot. I’m so excited.” Isabella clapped

    Darren’s POV “You know she’s coming to the party, so why are you going? She’d be sick again, and Marcus’s efforts of these two months would be waste.” “Grandpa, I won’t meet her. She won’t see me.” “But you know she’d get the effect. You need to stay away from her. It’s for everyone’s good.” “I need to see her. Kyro is getting mad. For his sanity, I need to go,” I took my car keys and strode out of the pack house. “Darren, I won’t let you go,” Grandpa came before me, blocking my way. “Grandpa, step aside. I already told you I’ll see her from a distance. Please leave my way.” “Kyro needs to understand. You can’t go to her because of him. You both need to understand she had a different fate. She’s not meant to be yours.” The words just left Grandpa’s mouth that Kyro took over me. “She’s mine,” he growled at Grandpa. “Kyro,” Grandpa growled back. “She’s mine. A damn curse can do nothing. I’ll make her mine, eventually. She’s only mine,” Kyro snarled in his unhuman voice on Grand

    Darren’s POV “Promise, I’ll,” She smiled, and the next moment, she withdrew my hands from her face and took predatory steps away from me. Her backward stroll was a masterpiece of art. Her heels clicked softly on the marble floor as she took slow, deliberate steps backward, her eyes locked onto mine. However, I couldn’t lock my gaze as my eyes traveled over her body. “Black,” I whispered, my breath caught in my throat. Her black bodycon dress hugged her body perfectly, showcasing her curves like a work of art. The V-neckline plunged deeply, revealing the soft, rounded swells of her breasts, and I couldn’t help but be drawn to the tantalizing glimpse of her cleavage. I gulped down. This was the first time I had seen her like this. She swayed around, and my eyes roamed lower, tracing the contours of her hips, accentuated by the dress’s fitted silhouette. I felt uneasy in my pants. However, when she turned around and took a step back on the bed, the slit on the left side made her t

    Diana’s POV “I love you, Anna,” Darren’s voice echoed in my brain, putting a lovely smile on my lips. However, the moment my eyes fluttered open, my head was spinning. I tried to sit up, but a wave of dizziness washed over me. I fell back onto the pillows, exhausted. “Ren?” I whispered, my voice barely audible. “Darren,” I again tried to call him but got no response, so I forced my eyes open, only to be greeted by a vacant space beside me. My heart sank and my mind raced. “No, not again,” my voice trembled as I forced myself to sit on the bed. However, when I scanned my surroundings, my heart plunged. It was my room in Alpha Marcus’s cottage, and Darren was nowhere. “This can’t be true; I can’t be here.” I threw off the covers and rushed out of the bed. However, before I could take a step or two, I stumbled to the ground. Tears welled up in my eyes. “You can’t leave me again.” My body ached and my muscles felt like a lead. I struggled to move, but my limbs were heavy. Tea

    Diana’s POV Isabella offered a soothing embrace, wrapping her arms around me as I concluded my past. “You’re strong, Diana. You’ll get through this. I’m always with you.” I smiled, grateful for her support. “You want to go to him and ask why he did that?” she asked. I could sense anger and distress in her voice. “No, my mind is made up.” She looked at me. “What is it?” "I’m done chasing him. I can’t take this constant heartache.” Her expression turned supportive. “You deserve better than this. Your focus should be on self-improvement and academic excellence." "I’ve been weak for too long,” I admitted, a hint of sadness creeping into me. Darren rejected me just because of this. "But now I want to change that.” Feeling weak and unable to move myself forced me to jump on this. He rejected me for this reason, so now. I needed to remove this thing from my life. I needed to get strong. “It’s great.” She smiled, and soon her eyes sparkled. “I’ve an idea. Why don’t you move in w

    Diana’s POV As I regained consciousness, I realized I was lying in Isabella’s room. “Liam, where is he?” I asked, sitting up. “He’s fine. I’ve already notified Professor Marcus, and he’s accompanied him to the Shadow Hunter Pack, grumbling about Alexander’s actions.” I gulped. “Did you see him? He’s a moon fox.” I was startled. Isabella nodded, and I suddenly realized I no longer felt any physical discomfort. Not only that, but the weakness I had experienced earlier had vanished. “I’m...” I didn’t know what to say. “Liam healed you. He has a healing power.” She informed me. “Why did he not tell us? Did you know about it?” I asked Isabella. “I only knew with you. Everything happened so fast that I didn’t get time to ask him. Once he returns from the shadow hunter pack, we’ll ask him.” I nodded and cradled her hands. “Are you fine?” I was concerned about her. “Liam helped me with my injuries.” She assured me. “Let me make a coffee for you. You’ll feel relaxed,” sh

She was just there talking to someone.’ My heart raced.“Alpha Darren, is everything alright?” The member of the council asked me.“Yeah.” I curved my lips into a fake smile and excused myself.‘She’s in danger. I can feel it,’ Kyro growled in my head.I ran towards the pack house of the Shadow moon pack, following Diana’s scent.However, my heart stopped beating for a second, and the earth beneath my foot slipped when I saw Luke hovering above her.

Now, it was almost four o’clock, and guests started to come. However, I was stuck in Isabella’s room, helping her get ready.Dressed in an ivory off-shoulder gown, she looked gorgeous. I styled her hair in a wavy curl that streamed down her back, and she wore statement earrings to complement her look. With minimal makeup to enhance her features, she was ready for the engagement.“How am I looking?” She asked, glancing at herself in the mirror.“Perfect.” I held her by the shoulders and hugged her from behind.“Now go and get ready. You also have to join the engagement if you remember.”I laughed out and walked towards my room to get ready.I had already taken a shower before heading to Isabella’s room, so I simply slipped into a dress. It was a short, knee-length, off-shoulder dress in a lovely lavender color, featuring a flared hem and a V-n

    Diana’s POVThe next day, while I was taking a shower in the washroom, Isabella entered the room. After I got ready, we had breakfast together with her family. Later, she gave me a tour of her pack house. Although it wasn’t as grand as Darren’s house, it was decorated with elegance and love. Every wall reflected the presence of Luna in their pack, especially since Darren’s mother had died during childbirth.Isabella took me to their massive library. It was the biggest room in the house, and every wall was lined with books from the ground to the ceiling; all the shelves were filled with them.“You’ve an immense collection,” My mouth was opened in astonishment. In Moonstone, the library wasn’t bigger. Some shelves in Grandpa’s office, some in Darren’s room, and a lot in mine.“I told you I have a library for my collection.” I nodded, going towards the shelves. There were different sections of different creatures. I thought I was a book lover, but Isabella was more than me.“Diana, Mom h

    Diana’s POV “Diana,” Shouting my name, she barged inside. “This way,” I exclaimed, going towards her, and we met in the hall. “Why did you come alone and not wait for me?” Putting hands on her waist, she was in a mood to fight. ‘Should I tell her about my shift?’ I thought about it. ‘No, what if I don’t shift again? Once I talk to my wolf and assure myself, I’ll tell her.’ “Tell me, why did you not wait for me? We decided to come together.” “It’s not my fault. You didn’t return last night, and I was feeling scared, so I came here.” I said, holding her hand. “How did you come here?” She questioned, and I was silent for a second. “Tell me,” “Alpha Marcus came to take me back. He said Clara was missing me, so instead of coming tomorrow, he came at night.” She pursed her lips, and I pulled her to the kitchen. “What happened, Isabella? You’re looking pissed off.” Clara said, looking at her. “I’m so annoyed with your Princess Diana. She left me there and came herself. Not just me,

    Diana’s POV I yawned as I got up, raising my hands above my head to relieve the tightness and creakiness from my body. However, as I scanned my room, the memories of the previous night flooded back into my mind. “How did I reach here?” I recalled. I was in the woods, and that mad wolf was going to rip my head off. A shiver crawled down my spine, the way he dug his claws into my back. I immediately stepped out of the bed and ran into the washroom. Standing before a wall-length mirror, I examined my body for the scratches or wounds given by that mad rogue wolf. However, my body was cleared without any marks. Even the stitching mark on my belly had gone, leaving ever-fresh and glowing skin. I was baffled. “My wolf,” I whispered, putting my hand on the mirror. The golden fur of my wolf flashed before my eyes. I never saw or heard about anyone who had a golden wolf. I was surprised and perplexed. Why do I have a golden one? I tried to concentrate on my mind, trying to talk to my wolf,

    Isabella’s POV I smoothed my black dress; the fabric clinging to my skin. The heels were elevating my stature, and subtle curls added a whimsical touch. “Beautiful,” I praised myself, applying the final coat of lip gloss. ‘Bella, I’ve reached.’ Bryan’s mind link whispered through my thoughts, sending shivers down my spine. ‘Just two minutes,’ I answered, throwing a last look at my reflection. The mirror showed a confident, radiant woman, and with a satisfied smile, I stepped out of my room. As I descended the stairs and turned left, I suddenly found myself face-to-face with Bryan. My heart skipped a beat. He looked breathtakingly handsome in his fitted black shirt and dark jeans, his eyes shining with warmth. A flutter erupted in my chest, and Jenna, my wolf, stirred in response, her presence heightening my senses. “Bryan,” I said, my voice barely above a whisper. His smile widened, and he closed the distance between us. “You look breathtaking, Isabella.” I blushed, feeling a s

    Darren’s POV “What about the curse?” I asked her with so much hope. “Curse is still there. A powerful witch had cast it in return for a favor. Diana had gained the favor, so the curse couldn’t be reverted unless Moon Goddess breaks it herself.” The glow emanating from her hand stopped as her eyes turned to normal. However, my heart sank to the depths. Where was I in this entire story? “I’ve got to tell Marcus. She’s indeed the girl of prophecy.” “Did she have other elements?” I asked with a raced heartbeat, praying to Selene for no. However, the Moon Goddess was against me. “I can sense them in her aura even though her powers aren’t awakened.” “No, this can’t be possible. She’s mine, living with me all her life. Only I’m her family. She can’t have such things in her.” My voice reverberated with anger. “Don’t forget, she’s the daughter of Thane and Freya. Her Golden Lycan cleared our doubts. Only a royal blood can have golden fur.” Saying this, Elena strode out of the room. If s

    Darren’s POV Today was a full moon, and I knew Kyro’s power would intensify, making him uncontrollable. He had insisted from last week that I go to the hostel to see her, even from a distance, but I refused because I knew how much she suffered because of me and my lack of control. However, tonight, Kyro wouldn’t let me control him, and I knew he would go to her hostel because she had moved there after the ballroom party. That’s why I decided to go into the woods away from her hostel in the opposite direction. Stopping my car at the end of the forest, I stepped out. The night was bright, and the moon had its significant pull. Ten minutes left mid-night, so I moved to my car’s bonnet and sat on it. ‘Darren, you’re not doing right.’ Kyro’s irritated voice echoed in my brain. ‘I won’t have to do this if you cooperate with me.’ I replied, putting my hand beneath my head and laying on the bonnet. ‘You’re doing wrong. You know I can’t live without her.’ ‘Whatever I’m doing is for her be

    Diana’s POV After finishing our meal and paying, we exited the inn into the night, already reaching 10 o’clock. “Let’s head back to the hostel,” I said, wearing the jacket I had removed from the inn. “We’ll go back after healing your core,” he said, walking beside me. “Seriously, you don’t need to do it anymore. I’m feeling good.” “But you’ll feel great after today’s try,” “But,” I tried to speak. However, he interjected me, pulling my hand towards the forest. “It’s already ten. We had to head back before midnight,” I warned him, trying to free myself. “I’ll do it faster and promise we’ll be back before midnight,” he raised his two fingers, sealing his words with promise. Nodding, I pursed my lips and followed him into the woods because he couldn’t practice his technique and utilize his power in the crowd. After walking for twenty minutes, we reached the woods near our hostel to head back soon. “Sit here,” Liam gestured me towards the ground, neatly made with weathered logs.
