Days later, nothing changed. Leo did not leave his room neither did he talk. He was sulking in the fact that things were not as they seem. He was pained that his mother that he trusted so much did something like that. Rose tried her best to comfort him but he was not moving.The door squeaked open and Damien and Ciara walked in. They looked at the condition Leo was and saw how worse it was."Leo, you can't keep doing this yourself. I understand that things were not as they seem. Heck, you never knew that you were never a product or even a symbol of the love between them but you are an Alpha. You must take your stand and fight this. You can't keep sulking." Ciara said with a worry lacing her features. Rose breathed out when she saw that he did not reply. "Jeff..." Damien did not complete what he wanted to say when Leo stood and lunged for Damien. The females yelped up in shock.Damien and Leo started thrashing around. Giving each other punches when their chance comes. Rose and Ciara w
If there was anything like being frozen in a spot, that is what this situation will be called. First, Leticia met her long lost father.Second, Rose discovered that she was half witch, half werewolf.What more shocking can happen again?Everyone sat down in silence, trying to take in what had just occurred."So for how long have you known that he was alive?" Leticia asked in a harsh tone, directing the question to Leo. He looked up and stared at her in the eye."Like some weeks ago." He answered. She sighed."Is everyone going to talk about what happened to me or about a matter that has been settled?" Rose interrupted them. They all turned to look at her. They completely understood her plight."We will deal with this step by step..." Leo trailed off, holding Rose's outstretched hands. Ever since she had intercepted Leticia, she could no longer bring her hands down. She was just as shocked as them."For how long have you been a witch?" Leo asked his sister. Leticia's jaw hardened for
He had just found out that the lady he had fallen in love with. The lady he has been bonding with for the past weeks was none other than a witch. She was a witch!He did not know how to take it.So it all happened when she came over to the pack and she knew too well where their relationship was heading to. She knew she could no longer deceive him so she told him to the truth."Really?" He asked, still tongue tied."And my mother is also the keeper of the coven." She said and he face palmed."Why?" He asked. She walked out of their little kitchen and crouched down to the bed level.They were in his apartment in the city where they would often meet and hang out with each other."I am sorry for keeping this from you. I really wanted to tell you but I just didn't know how to... I was scared that you would leave me." She said with pleading eyes."At least you could have told me and we would have sort it out. What is going happen to us, now that the witches and werewolves are at war?" He as
************Rose's POV************"That was how I lost contact with your mother." He stated. I sat down on the chair.So my mother was a witch. No wonder, I possess the prowess. But wait, how did he know me?I looked at him. "You said that you are my father but from what you stated, you did not say she was pregnant, how the hell do you recognize me then?" I questioned."That locket on your neck..." He pointed to it. I subconsciously gripped it."I was the person that gave it to your mother as a token of love. It was made out 10% of her prowess and 5% of my wolf strength. I guessed you have been unable to open, well, I think you can." He said and I dragged my gaze away from him. I unlocked the locket and brought into my palm. I stared at it before unbolting it with great reluctance. My eyes went wide when I saw what was inside.It was a picture of my mother and father. They looked so young and one could see the love even from a glance. "She is pretty." Was all I could mutter."Well,
************Rose's POV************So after Leticia was able regain some of her power, she stood up and reactivated the portal again. We all stood up and waited for her to notify us to get in."You may go in." She said and we took the turns to enter. This time it took longer before we came out. And when we did, the place was... A desert."Really? Leticia?" Ciara said with a huff. The wind blew so rough that we had to shade our faces."I also don't understand why we are going from worse to worst." She stated as she looked around. I don't blame her. They are all passing through this because of me. I should not be the one to complain."Thank you." I said to her and she looked at me with a smile that denoted that I should not say it."You are my sister in law, you don't need to thank me." She said and I nodded my head with a tight smile."So how many minutes are we using here?" Ciara asked."Just two." She said and we all looked at her."Two?" Damien asked with his eyebrows raised."Who
The wind died down."It's broken," Damien said and they looked around the place. The place that was filled with white snow-like droplets became a place with evergreen leaves."Where is this place?" Leo asked as he looked around."That is not what we should be thinking of right now, let's find our mates," Damien said, sort of impatient. He could not afford to lose her, not when he just found her."Where should we go?" Austin asked."Mate bond." Leticia said and stood up. They turned towards her."Use the mate bond to find them," She stated and dusted her cloth."Okay," Damien nodded his head and closed his eyes. He slowly connected to his mate's mark while closing his eyes. Then suddenly, he felt her presence and he slowly took steps with them trailing behind him. He still had his eyes closed when they walked half of the way till they got to where she was."Ciara?!" Leo shouted and ran towards her. Damien cut off the connection quickly and went to meet them. Leo shook her and she cough
The staircase was longer than they expected it to be. Rose's heart hammered against her chest as she anticipated meeting her mother. Then they finally got to the last one and Austin was the first to see her. She was chained by several shackles which had glistening lights around them. Rose swallowed down as she saw the state that her mother was. She was pretty and looked young but her hair had grown white and long. They poured down her body. As if she noticed them, her body jerked up immediately and she looked forward. Her eyes went wide as she saw her longtime lover. They all looked at the brewing tension between them. She forced herself forwards but the chains jerked her back. Austin moved his feet as he stretched his hands out towards her. His eyes were glistened with unshed tears."Opening the fvcking door," He yelled and before Rose could move forward, Melissa stopped her."We will have to do some things first," She explained."Then do it and stopped slacking," He yelled and Meli
~Now~Rose looked at her mother as she explained how she found out about her pregnancy. Austin smiled and pulled her close."It's alright," he said and looked at Rose. He pulled her also closer."Then how did I get separated from you and also where is Simone?" Rose asked as she pulled away."But then it happened that day..."**FLASHBACK**After that day, she made sure to keep the child safe and healthy. She even stopped worrying about Austin. She had to place all her focus on her baby. Their only symbol of love. She had to protect her. Some months later, she went into labour. It was in the noon and she was not ready. Her mother refused to show up to help her. So it was only Simone that was there to help her.Everyone was running helter-skelter. She was about to be born. Faint lights roaming everywhere adding more to the nervousness and anxiety that was reeking out from the people that awaited her arrival."Walk faster." One of the witches yelled at a lower ranked witch. The lady scur
~Legend's POV~ I looked at myself in the mirror and smiled in satisfaction. "Things are about to get hot." Gael said and I chuckled. I know he does not like the way I did not tell him anything but I just can't. "Let's get going." I said and we both stepped out of the room. As we walked the corridors of the palace, the maids and guards bowed in greetings. I released a deep breath and wore a stern face. Just as we got to the entrance of the throne room that announcer was about to alert them of my presence buy I raised my hand to shun him. "The Alpha Prince..." He swallowed the rest of the word as I stepped into the room. Everyone turned their heads to towards me. And I stood all and mighty in the middle of the throne hall. My father and I shared this 'make sure what you want to say does not lead to your dethronement' kind of look and I almost snickered at him. "Rest, father." I said through the mind link and he seemed to be taken aback. I looked around to take a good look at th
~Leticia's POV~I stared at him as he zoomed off. Honestly, I was too dumbfounded to talk. Like he literally stakes his claim and I could not do anything. Okay, I agree. I am denying the bond. That is because I don't want to get all too attached to him. Like I notice the way Damien and Ciara always behave. Not to talk of how Leo and Rose do.Nah! I can't do that."So you know him?" Brian's voice came from behind me.Gosh, I have forgotten that he was even here. I turned to him and smiled."I should be the one asking you that question?" I said to him with a glare. He gulped down and looked away."So you were a wolf, like seriously? Wait, am I also your mate?" I asked him to be sure I am not between two guys."No, you are not." He said and my mind calmed down a bit. But wait?"Why?-""I lost my wolf already." He said and my eyebrows furrowed in pity."Hey, don't give me that look of pity. I am only with you because I love you but now that I found that that you are Legend's mate. I gue
~Legend's POV~"Hey, Legend. You can't keep doing this to yourself." Gael's voice said from behind the door. I hissed out and gulped down another bottle of alcohol. It's been a week since my father gave me that stupid options that left me dumbfounded. I could not even think of an escape answer for him. All I did was watch my mate leave from the window of my room. I sniffed in and took another sip. I had locked myself in and refused to attend the court meetings but one thing my dad does not know is that I was drinking. I belched and took another sip. I have missed her so much to the extent that I don't even think I can ever see her again. But why will dad put my life at jeopardy all because of his own mate?!I shook my head and tried to stand up but I slumped back on the floor. I winced slightly and checked my arm. Her bite mark was still there. The place she had bit me one week ago. I would say her teeth is quite sharp to the extent that they left a mark. I tried to get up again but
~Legend's POV~I walked through the corridors as I quietly anticipate her to be there. At least."She does not have a wolf." Ryder's voice said in my head and I halt to a stop."What did you say?" I asked him."I tried trying to connect with her but.. ask what she is." He said and went to rest back. That's how he does. He leaves me to do all the work while he tells me bit by bit, putting me on suspense. I shook my head and walked into my chambers. I opened the lock and went in."Mate!" I called out."Mate!" She mimicked me and I chuckled low key."Tell me why you are being like this towards me?" I asked her."Because you must have mistaken me to be your mate. Like let me tell you, I don't have a wolf and besides I am a witch." She said and just like that I jerked back immediately.Impossible!What kind of shit is this?"You are my mate. I can feel it." Was all I could say to assure her."I don't know what to say because I have a fiance who I love so much and I am not going to give it
~Leticia's POV~I don't understand why my brother insisted on my coming here. I scoffed as I watched them give the honorary speech about the said Alpha king who sat all mighty on his throne and had this forced smile on his face. I need to get out of here.I looked around but my brother was nowhere to be found. I shrugged and walked out from the crowd. I looked around and my legs took me towards the garden. As I was looking around and I bumped into something or rather someone. "Ouch!" I winced as I held my forehead.I looked up at the person who stood before. He has his eyes glued on me like I was some support to his life. "Mate!" He whispered and my eyes went wide open."You say?!" I gasped in shock and moved back a bit to take a proper look at him."You are my mate?" He said more like asking."I don't know what you are talking about and if you may excuse me, I am here to get fresh air and you seem to be blocking it." I said to him and turned away from him. Before I could take anoth
Torn between his duty and heart, Legend Brendon has reached the junction at which he has to tread carefully or else he would lose everything that made him the Alpha King. When he meets his mate, Leticia, she was everything he did not expect her to be. A witch. He must make sure she does not get killed and fight against the roaming shadows that were threatening to destroy his kingdom.• • • Chapter one Chapter One~Legend's POV~"So tell me why you are not excited about your father's birthday?" Gael, my best friend and Beta's son, said and I exhaled deeply."It is not that I am not excited about it. Heck, I am so happy that he is aging fast and I will become the Alpha King but my wolf has been feeling jittery which is making me look stressed than usual." I explained to him and pinched the bridge of my nose. But instead this fool took it as a joke and grinned like a dummy. I snickered at him in annoyance and almost rolled my eyes at him.I can't. As per my father's word, I am the Alph
**A Month Later**"So tell me why I should follow you to the Alpha king's birthday?" Leticia asked for the umpteenth time as she saw across the table with Leo."Because I said you are going with me." He said with his hands on my lap. She rolled her eyes and shrugged."You're going?" He asked."Not like I have a choice." She groaned and I chuckled low-key.Ever since we caught the scoundrel, everything was at peace. I even went to see my parents, well foster parents. They asked for my forgiveness and I just forgave them. Don't want them to be sulking up to me. After that, we also and when I say 'we', I meant Leo and I. We went to see Levi. He had also become the Alpha of his pack and he said that he searched for me all over the place when I went missing and apologized for his inconsistence. I introduced Leo to him as my mate and everything went fine. So tomorrow was the Alpha king's birthday and we were all invited. Well, mostly the Alphas and Lunas."Tomorrow." He said and dragged me
************Rose's POV************So right now, we are in front of the entire pack who has been unable to shift. It was early in the morning. Samantha was still tied down with that spell bound rope."A lot of you think your Luna was the one who caused you to be unable to shift. Well, guess what. It was one of you." My mother yelled."I know you all must be thinking of who I am. I am your Luna's mother and I will not stand and watch you all paint her bad when she is not." She said and they looked at her with awe."Well, I guess you all must know that this lady here is a witch and the one who assisted the person to stop you all from shifting." She continued. My mother kicked her to start talking."The one who came to me for help was none other than Jacksonville." She said."He told me about the fact that he was not satisfied with the new Alpha and that he was the one who supposed to be in the position that he was and we came to an agreement." She explained."Bring Jackson out here."
************Rose's POV************"So after putting such a bold and dramatic front before Leo, you are here sulking?" My mother asked me as she placed the cup of water before me. I grunted and sipped a little."Mom, you don't understand. Ever since I came back, I don't understand a thing at all. Where I was taken to? What they did to me? How I was handled? I know nothing at all. And now the pack is struck with some stupid disease or what should it be called?" I said with a look of sadness."Whosever might have taken you cleared your memory and I will love you to relax so that I make a portion and try to remember some spells to track the witch." She said and went into the room. Well, they now stay in the cave, not actually a cave, but it was built like one. And the environment is serene enough and it is quite conducive especially for them since they wanted to be away from other people."Rose," Leo's voice said in my head, making me jerk."Leo?" I asked."How are you?" He asked and I
