I scrubbed my eyes, shaking my head and staring intently at the body being dragged with each arm by the two bodyguards. Thick red blood was smearing in a straight line as her body trudged along the floor over to the front of the cage, where I was.

Her face was bloody, but I could clearly recognize her as Joy, the girl who just left here after bringing food for me.

They dropped her motionless body on the floor and unlocked the key of the cage before flinging her inside before locking the gate back, leaving me with Joy, who seemed to have been tortured and wounded so severely. Every part of her body, from head to toe, was bleeding, and her breath was shallow, forced, and hitched at intervals.

She was dying.

"Joy!!" I shrieked, taking her into my arms and trying to wake her up, but the young girl doesn't seem like one to survive it anymore. Her eyes were closed, and apart from her heart, which was thumping, no other part of her was in motion. They had beaten her cruelly and in the most h

    "Where had you been, buddy?!" My best friend Jake's voice slipped into my lost world, startling me back to reality."Huh?" I swiveled my head around to face him, blinking as his tall and muscular body, like mine, walked closer to me, his dirty brown tousled hair bouncing at each step as his hazel eyes filled with confusion peered into mine. He was my only friend since childhood; we met in kindergarten, and he was closest to me. The guy to be my right-hand man when I sit on that throne in replacement of my father. His parents were warriors until they died four years ago. Since he was my only friend, my parents took him in to stay in the royal castle.I knew I was in for questions after keeping him worried by staying so long in the enemy's land.The moment I walked through the gate into this place, I knew everyone must have been really troubled about where I had been. The bodyguards were scanning me with their eyes, but none had the courage to ask me anything, and that fear that brings

    "Jaden!" My mother came hugging me as she stepped out of the palace, meeting me in the sitting room just as I was about climbing up the stairs."We were worried." She added, pecking my cheek."No more worries." Can I go to my room now?""Not yet, son." My father cut in, walking out of the palace too.I sighed, facing him."Please, I'm tired and need to rest my head.""You have a visitor. They had been waiting since you went to that pack with your friend and those spies. They insist on seeing you because they come from a faraway kingdom. Please honor their..."Fine." I snapped, taking a deep breath, and I saw a huge smile appear on my mother's face."Thank you." She beamed, taking my hand as she accompanied me to the palace. I wonder who this visitor was."Here he is....." My mother announced it as soon as we entered through the door, and they stood up. A man, a woman, and a girl in between, all dressed in gold royal attire. With their scent, I knew they were vampires too, from other cl

    We were three, including me and Jake, so we just had one spy join us this night. It wasn't an official spying day, but my father doesn't want to lose any chance of finding out how to successfully destroy his enemies, especially this particular pack.None of us knows why his hatred for them runs so deep in the core of his heart. The resentment reeks from both his eyes and voice each time he talks about them. I was sure they had done a really evil thing to him—something he would never forget and wouldn't rest till he saw their destruction. Anytime I ask him why his hatred for them goes way deeper than for other packs, he will only grit his teeth and tell me that some day I will find out. Honestly, I don't really care.Werewolves are our grave enemies, and that's all I know. We are born to hate them and hurt them at the slightest opportunity. It's forbidden to help or do anything good to any of them. Growing up in the royal packhouse and staying in the palace with my father gave me the

    My heart wasn't beating normally as I uttered those words. Like screams in my head, I was hearing the lies, and I really knew I was bluffing. It can't be love, but I won't be able to hurt her or see anyone harm her.I just hope Jake doesn't ask for proof, because I would definitely disappoint him. And if he tries doing it on his own, then that's where our first problem would begin because he might just end up becoming my enemy.Don't remind me. I know I'm being stupid. Gosh!Jake didn't say anything, though. He just smiled and looked away, facing the window, while I maintained a stern expression."We are here." The man driving announced at that moment, and we both jumped out of the cart. It's time to cross the boundary and head in!We both smiled at each other, and in a snap, we all switched to our beastly senses and abilities, and like the lightning in the sky, we bolted through the enomous trees and mountains.She was out of my mind at this moment. I wasn't thinking about her at a

    "That girl had stayed longer than any werewolf survival limit. I think they want her dead this time. She will only stay alive for two hours after being brought out before giving up the ghost. I just don't understand why they blame her for what you did. Do they suspect her to have vampire powers?" Jake's voice rang in my head like a bell, sending cold shivers down my spine as goosebumps spread through my skin."Are you sure she isn't the girl you saved? You seemed so concerned. Like, it's written all over your face." Jake added, his brows creasing in curiosity.I ignored him totally, my eyes fixed at the stage where everyone, including the Alpha, was totally absentminded already, forgetting that someone was inside that box. The Luna was the only one that kept glancing at it with a secret smirk playing on her lips as she made sure to keep the Alpha busy with her chitchat and continuous drinking. It was after the scream that they all turned in shock, realizing that they had kept someone

    The run was wild and exciting, and the breeze that whirled around and slapped my skin made the journey more thrilling. I felt so much adrenaline rushing through my veins, accompanied by goosebumps that shot through every part of my skin in nothing else but a pleasurable sensation.The sweetness was out of this world, and all I could think of was the moment I would finally save her life. Death was the only thing I dreaded so much because it was the end of any dreams or wishes. I don't know what I feel for that wolf girl, but at all costs, she has to be alive until I realize what it truly is.My joy knows no bounds, as I crossed the boundary safely and easily since almost everyone had gone indoors out of sobriety and fear. It was clear that the wolf girl was someone whose death could cause harm to the entire pack, and apparently, I was about to save not just the life of that girl but that of every single member of the pack.It was really forbidden and unheard of. It was something that no

    My cheeks must both be red like fresh tomatoes, and I couldn't resist licking my lips as the feeling of his soft, sensual lips lingered on my lips even when he was already gone. The kiss was very short, but the feelings were really deep, and the sensation lingered long enough that I smiled wide until I was grinning.The doctor who made the announcement was too shocked and dumbfounded to say anything. His eyes said it all as I gawked like one who had met face-to-face with a two-headed human. It was so unbelievable, not only to see that I was miraculously healed but also to witness a kiss from a vampire. He didn't say anything but left with the vampire. It wasn't until they were both gone that I sat up, and at that moment I sighted something on the floor. It was a pearl bracelet that appeared otherworldly as it twinkled from where I sat.Quickly, I left the bed and picked it up, realizing instantly that it must have fallen from Jaden's grasp. My doubt was cleared when I peeked at it c

    As I sat there, numb from confusion and fright, I wondered what secret he was hiding. The glint I saw in his eyes was really suspicion. It was the glint of a first time murderer staring at the body it just killed.I've never thought of my father as a bad man, nor has he given me any reason to doubt his love for me or my mother. I had always enjoyed my family and saw it as the best. Our home had always been peaceful, with everyone smiling all day.But I guess I was entirely wrong and had been made to believe the mere illusions portrayed to me.

    "Thank you for your help. He will do exactly as you instruct." Jake quickly cut in before I could say anything, as if he were preventing me from making any counters.I glanced at him with a frown, which he ignored, smiling at the man as he stood to his feet."I hope he does it because he doesn't seem like one who is willing to let go of that girl, and it is really dangerous seeing that he is the vampire prince and future king of the vampires. I thought he should know by now how dangerous it is to have such feelings for werewolves." The shaman sighed, shaking his head as he stared at me with disappointment in his eyes.He seemed to know just everything, and it's irking the shit out of me. How did Jake know about this man here? Can he read my mind too? Fuck it!"It will be hard for him, but he will definitely do it. I am guessing the girl might have used charm on him, but trust me, he has a strong will to end the forbidden romance." Jake defended with a smile, while I took a deep breath

    I watched as she dragged her feet away, fear and confusion written all over her face. She couldn't stop throwing glances at me. I knew there were a lot of questions going through her head, and the fright in her wouldn't even let her say anything.I could only hear her sharp breaths as her legs shivered at each step away from me. Once she was gone, I shut the door and went back to bed. I closed my eyes and waited for sleep to take me away, but just then, I felt that hotness of the bracelet again."What is wrong with this?" I muttered in confusion, bringing it out in haste. It was glowing again, and I really didn't know why. It was like an unseen force pushed me to do it. I quickly put it on my left hand, and a wave of sensation swept through my skin, so chilling that goosebumps spread through me."We shouldn't be wearing that! What gave you the courage? Do you know if it's forbidden or something?" My wolf shouted when she saw me wear the bracelet. We had been really scared to wear it,

    Selene's POVA continuous knock on my door jolted me out of my sleep as I snapped and sat up in a rush, rubbing my eyes and looking around frantically as I listened again to be sure the knock was actually on my door. I wasn't used to it. It was weird for anyone to seek permission before entering my room, as they all barged in anytime and anyhow.The knock came again, and I quickly left the bed and scurried to the door to open it for whoever it was, and my brows gathered together in surprise when I saw the so-called girlfriend of my mate standing at the door step with a tray of food in her hand. "May I come in?" She breathed, smiling abruptly, as if it were forced. "This place isn't the dining room. Why bring your food here to eat?" I questioned but she shook her head."I brought the food for you. It is yours. I guessed you might be hungry because I didn't see you join us in the dining room when we ate earlier. You had been inside this room since, so I decided to get food for you."

    Jaden's POV"They are having another party tonight! How possible is that? I thought they were all gloomy and should begin to suffer from whatever curses were laid on them!" A messenger ran into the royal hall and announced it to us.We were already having meetings on how and when to attack, so this news really hit everyone like a bomb, except me, but I acted along like I knew nothing."What are you saying?! Are you sure?!" I yelled, my eyes widening as I clenched my fists. Dad and mom were both confused, and everyone present was glancing at Jake, me, and Stanley, the spy that went with us yesterday. "You must be joking! What party is it?" Jake retorted strongly."The Alpha's children returned. A boy and girl. The party is to celebrate their return, and throughout the pack, it had been really buzzing with a lot of activities and smiles on their faces. They don't look like people under curses. We expected to see them crying from one sickness or disease outbreak this morning, but none o

    My name is Callan Lake, the only son of the alpha of this pack, and you know what that means? I am the future Alpha, the next heir, and the very man to take over this pack after my father and sit on that throne with everyone bowing to me.As the only son, I don't have to fight for that position. It is my birthright, and all I have to do is enjoy my life to the fullest, have everything I desire, and then become the Alpha after a few years when my father resigns.This is a life every man would dream of, especially when my appearance is an amazing work of art, so handsome and sexy that every woman would find it impossible to resist. A little smile crossed my face as I thought of this, but it all vanished the moment I remembered my mate, the girl who seemed to hate me already. I saw the glint in her eyes when she told me to reject her quickly.I expected her to be on her knees, helplessly pleading for me to accept her. As the Alpha's son, I really thought she would be crawling beneath my

    I left the room in sadness, feeling the excruciating pain of his sheer rejection shooting through every vein in my heart, hot tears cascading down my cheeks endlessly as it dawned on me that I would be rejected. The horrifying stories about rejected mates that I had read in books were about to be my fate and it was like a dream."Why me?" I hissed, my legs weak and feeling like jelly as I paused in my track, replaying scenes of what I saw inside that room. For real, my supposed fated mate has been found and this is how it all happened and ends. Like a joke.My neck hurts from the tight grasp of the same man that should be my protector, and each swallow was hard and painful, but what pained me the most was the fact that it was my mate who hurt me.I hissed in frustration, feeling so angry at the moon goddess for what she just did to me. How could she offer a dickhead to me as a mate?He won't even think twice before talking about rejecting me, not even caring to know my name or who I a

    It all started with a nightmare I never imagined—something that tore me so deeply that I wished the ground would open and bury me alive.When I reached the royal pack house, the Alpha and his Luna were in the sitting room."Go and greet your new masters and ask if there is anything they need you to do for them. They just returned and might need a slave to help them do a lot." The Luna said, scornfully, making sure to emphasize the slave she just called me. Her words really hurt, but there was nothing I could do.I thought I would one day get used to her heartbreaking abuse and demeaning comments, but each time, it hits differently and the pain continues, which she clearly enjoys.With tears threatening to fall from my eyes, I walked away, climbing up the stairs as I headed to the room. It was a room I had been cleaning every day since I became a slave here. For over a year, I cleaned the room daily, awaiting their return. I decided to meet with the son first before the daughter, whose
