FATED TO MY UNCLE THE SHADOW WITCHES
~ISSA“Miles!” I screamed as I raced down the stairs.The speed at which I moved was deadly, I was literally flying down the stairs rather than running down them. Such that, if anything or anyone were to appear on my path, then they would be knocked down instantly.“Miles!” I called out again the moment my feet touched the bottom of the stairs.Silence. No movement. Only emptiness. My heart was thumping hard against my chest now. I feared that harm had befallen my Beta and friend. Or was this just another prank of his? Yes, Miles was sometimes overly playful but he knew when to stop and he would never joke about something like this. I shook my head at the thought and walked back to the lobby. I stood at its center and just stared around closely, hoping to catch something—anything that I might have missed. "Miles!" I tried again but the response was the same as before. Silence. The eerie feeling from earlier still hung above the house, almost as if it was waiting for the perfect

~YULIA It seemed like a dream or perhaps a slight detour from reality. How Issa saw, yet ignored me.In my wildest dreams, I hadn’t imagined him doing something like that. I was hurt and my wolf was on fire, we were literally in a mess— emotionally mostly.‘How could he fucking do this to us?’ Yara— my wolf yelled from within my head. I had wanted to have the upper hand, to give the silent treatment and make him beg but he had beat me at my own game and it made me mad.Or, was this part of his Lycan abilities too? Seeing the future?“Fuck!” I screamed, banging my fists on the table.The maids around looked at me. Their heads had been bowed while Issa walked past, he was feared among his subjects.I stood up in haste, unable to control my emotions any longer. The sight of the food on the table suddenly made my stomach rumble in disgust. Eating was impossible now as I had lost my appetite.“Stupid!” I ranted, kicking the foot of the chair after. Pain didn’t hesitate to do its job, rac

~ISSAThey shrieked as I came at them. One of them sent a vine at Iran's neck but he was fast. He dodged. He was like a blur, escaping all their attacks as he came at them in all his glory. I felt like a spectator, watching everything happen from Iran's eyes. He revealed his claws and grabbed one of the witches. She was cloaked in black just like her companion and she screamed even louder than before. This caught Iran off guard and he released her while trying to shield his ears from the sound. In his moment of weakness, the second witch took up the opportunity and sent a vine of darkness at his neck.Iran groaned as the vine closed around him and I went down on my knees from within. I might have been an observer but I could feel every pain that he felt. The witch pulled us into the darkness while Iran released a roar in an attempt to break free. But the first witch recovered and sent her own vine of darkness to Iran. "Not so tough now. . ." They whispered in a sickening voice t

~YULIAI froze in my tracks as I registered the man who was supposed to be my uncle— before me. Seeing Issa shirtless, wet with sweat— was the last thing I had expected. The emotions in his eyes resembled that of a broken man. It was as if a violent storm was raging within them. They were fixed onto mine in such a way that made my intake of breath unsteady. Suddenly, he took a step toward me and I instinctively backed away. He picked up his pace with an urgency that made me question his intentions. My wolf panicked and I widened my eyes at him, preparing myself— stilling myself for what was to come. Yet when he got close enough, he shocked me with his next move. He pulled me into his arms. He wrapped his arms around me without uttering a word once and my eyes only grew wider. Since when was Issa so caring? Why on earth was he hugging me? And of course, my treacherous wolf began to relax against his warmth. His entire essence filled me and went up my nose in such a way that he

~YULIA"I will rip all your hearts apart!" I jumped in my spot and my mouth instantly went dry. I helplessly watched as all their faces began to turn pale with fear— maids and guards alike. There was no telling what Iran was going to do to them. He was losing control. "Who did it?" He demanded again and his words almost made me lose my balance. I looked from the maids to Issa. Even if someone was willing to say anything, I doubted if they would be able to utter a word under this condition. "Fine, I'll help you decide," he whispered ever so calmly yet in such a dangerous way that my legs refused to move. He grabbed a maid and she began to whimper on the spot. My heart sank when I realised that he was going to kill her. I looked to Miles, hoping that he would intervene but the man remained rooted to his spot. I did not know it when my legs developed a mind of their own and pushed me forward. "Iran!" I yelled and almost slapped myself for daring to confront him.He shot his crims
Last Updated : 2024-06-18FATED TO MY UNCLE 19. MEMORY WIPE
~ISSAI raced back to my room, my heart pounding so hard— it seemed as though it would disconnect itself from the veins connecting it to the rest of my body.I felt like a character in a horror movie, pursued by a ghost. But in my case, I was running from something— someone who wasn’t present but whose memory haunted my entire existence. As soon as I entered my room, I slammed the door shut so hard that the loud banging sound echoed throughout my room. “Breathe Issa,” I whispered to myself— my hands still on the knob with my forehead resting on the door as I listened to my pounding heartbeat.Slowly, I backed away from the door till I reached my bed and sat on it. I looked down at the key in my hand and my body trembled violently as the thought of him crossed my head again.“Stop!” I screamed as I buried my head in my palms, trying to shut the awful voice playing in my head."You're worthless!" Echoes of his voice rang through my head. "You can't do anything right!" Yelled the voic

~YULIA“I never went to the garden.” I folded my arms at him while shaking my head slowly. He stared straight into my eyes and my wolf danced aggressively within me as his forest green eyes seemed to glow.He was definitely crazy— probably losing his mind.“Can’t you see that you are hurt and there is blood all over your clothes? How do you suppose all that happened?” He demanded softly, his voice gentle like the breeze on a summer night.I opened my mouth to speak but no words came out. He was right. There were blood stains on my clothes and my head spun like it was in a wheel.I suddenly felt unsafe and simply wanted to be left alone.He stretched his hands to touch me but I flinched away; scared that he was playing tricks on my mind, scared that he was only looking for a way to ignite a dangerous fire between us, one that wouldn’t be quenched easily.“Don’t touch me!” I yelled and rose to leave his side. But a piercing pain passed through my head and I fell again.I closed my eyes

~ISSA"What? Have you lost your mind?" Yulia screamed and I was taken aback by her outrage. She glared daggers at me and I just knew that if she had the power to burn people with her eyes, then my body would have lit up in flames.“I would never move in with you!” She yelled while getting off the bed this time.She staggered and almost fell. Her fingers were shivering and her face was pale. The drugs the pack healer had administered to her had not finished its work but she just wouldn’t listen.I stood up and wanted to run to her but she darted her fingers at me, signifying me to stop.“Why are you being so stubborn, Yulia? Can’t you see that I am doing all I can for your safety?” My hands were in the air, trying to make her see things from my point of view.As I spoke, I attempted once again at approaching her but for each step I took forward, she retreated two steps back every time.“Stay where you are! Don’t

FATED TO MY UNCLE 96. DINNERS AND GRUDGES II
~YULIA“Issa, how nice of you to grace us with your presence,” A middle-aged, yet very attractive woman who possessed dirty blonde hair that was neatly styled– said as she approached us.“Hesta, this is Yulia,” Issa said as he took my waist possessively. Hesta was dressed in a dark pencil skirt that clung to her waist and legs as if it was a second skin. She wore a silk cream blouse that she tucked neatly into the skirt. She had on Chanel red bottom heels. She looked simple yet fabulous. And I knew at first glance that she was no ordinary woman. She was a witch.“Hello,” I said politely.“My oh my, she is a pretty one,” Hesta said as she washed her eyes over my body as if I was a merchandize. “You really know how to pick your women.” A mischievous smile played on her face and Issa had to clear his throat. “She is my niece, control your thoughts, Hesta.” “Please, Issa, you may be able to fool a lot of people but you can not fool me, the way you described her is how a lover would d
FATED TO MY UNCLE 95. DINNER AND GRUDGES
~YULIA‘Can’t wait to see you tonight.’ Leia’s text read and I groaned wearily. I just could not catch a break with her. I exited my message app to see what class I was having next. I decided against it and texted Issa instead.‘You were right, they don’t like you.’ I texted.I looked up from my phone and stared at the ceiling, wondering how long it was going to take Issa to respond. And as if on cue, my phone buzzed.‘Did they suspect anything?’ He texted back.I smiled at the fact that I was truly important to him to have him answer this fast. I tried not to draw attention to myself as I slowly walked down the hall with no destination in mind. Then I looked back at my phone and finally made sense of his words without putting my feelings for him forward. ‘No, we’re good, and I met the chancellor.’ ‘Albus, that old fool.’ He replied.‘Why do you have a problem with everyone?’ It baffled me how he was always at odds with almost everyone that I had come across lately.‘It’s a long st
FATED TO MY UNCLE 94. THE SANCTUM OF SECRETS
~YULIAI just called the head of the Academy a dick. And he thought it was funny. Albus looked at Davina with a humorous twinkle in his eyes and winked.“Well, she’s got a little fire in her, that’s for sure,” he said with a chuckle.“I didn't mean it,” I said in a small embarrassed tone.“Of course you did,” Albus said boisterously. I was kind of shocked that he did not get offended. “Let us have a seat, shall we?” He said and snapped his hand. Some of the books closed shut and floated to their respective shelves. The chairs and tables arranged themselves. Some of the men and women exited the room to continue their reading elsewhere while Davina and Albus remained.“Who are those people?” I asked, recalling that I had seen them at Issa’s Announcement.“Members of the board,” Albus shrugged as sat down across from me. Davina remained standing by his side with her arms crossed. I could see the tension in her shoulders.“Do you know why we called you here?” Albus asked as he twirled
FATED TO MY UNCLE 93. THE OTHER WOMAN
~ISSAMy mind was heavily on how Yulia was doing as I entered the premises of Calion Holdings. There was so much work to be done, new updates to be installed on the company archives and new codes to write in order to strengthen the online security of the company assets.Hackers were already devising newer and slicker codes– ways of getting access to hidden information and I needed to be ten steps ahead. I was deep into working when my office door opened abruptly. The interim chief executive officer of Calion Holdings stood with her legs apart and her arms crossed. She was in a maroon power suit with a knee length skirt and matching stiletto heels.Iris Craven. As I glanced at her, I instantly realized that she came with a problem.“I am guessing your presence here has nothing to do with work,” I said and closed my laptop. Unlike Andrea and Leia, Iris was not someone to be dismissed. She was a very important part of Calion Holdings and the one closest to Deucalion. She was the firs
FATED TO MY UNCLE 92. THE CANIS BOARD
~YULIA“Yulia, we will be late for the next class,” Ashley said. I finally looked up from my phone and stared at her as we walked out of the class. “I have to see the Dean.” “It’s because of Leia, is it not?” She raised her brows at me with worry.. “Yeah,” I lied. Her expression turned grim. “It is alright, I am not getting expelled or anything.”Her face brightened up after that. “Oh, I was worried there for a while.” She sighed in relief.. “See you later.” I smiled at her before she turned and dashed to her next class. I blew out a tension-filled breath, adjusted my ash blazer and turned to the direction of the Dean’s office.I had barely made it two steps away when two very tall girls appeared out of the blue and blocked my path with their bodies. I frowned and was about to ask them to step out of the way politely when I looked up and the words died in my mouth. It was Leia’s minions. The blonde twins and they glared at me quietly as if I had stolen their boyfriends.“Do not t

~YULIAIssa and I went over the plan as he drove me to school. I had to wait for Dean Davina to call me first.“Do not appear too eager or they will definitely suspect that something is up,” Issa said as he focused on the road.“But why should they be suspicious? Aren’t they the ones that want me to join them?” I asked.“You must understand that the Canis board is a very distrustful bunch, so even if they extend a hand of invitation, they are still very watchful and doubtful, even amongst themselves,” Issa replied.“What should I look forward to?” I asked as my anxiety began to set in.“Lots of questions about me and Marianna,” he said. “They will also ask about you and how you grew up, they could also try to turn you against me,” he said.“They hate you that much?” I asked in disbelief.“More than you can ever imagine,” Issa replied.“But you have to keep our Mated status a secret, they will not let you in if they know about that,” he added.“I think Andrea knows,” I said to him with
FATED TO MY UNCLE 90. THE RESCUED ONE
~ISSAI stayed awake all night as I remembered the past. I occasionally glanced at Yulia as she slept. With what she was going to do tomorrow, she needed all the rest she could get.I still could not believe that I had agreed to let her go behind the enemy lines, but there was no other way to get the answers we needed. “You are going to regret refusing us Issa, just you wait,” Davina’s voice echoed in my head as I flashed back to when we were young, before she had been appointed the position of the Dean of Canis Academy.She had been so angry when I had coldly rebuffed her when she told me that the school board wanted me to join its rank after graduation. It had been a long time ago.Deucalion had joined without hesitation. It was there that he had found his mate, and it was the reason why his daughter Leia could never be expelled whenever she broke the rules and regulations of the school.Then the war started. Humans, werewolves and witches alike had been caught in the crossfire. A
FATED TO MY UNCLE 89. UNKNOWN ORIGIN
~YULIAHearing the Lycan that I was mated to telling me that he saved my life when I was a baby had to be one of the most unexpected things to hear. The sound of chattering and spoons clinking on coffee mugs were drowned out by the panic that went through me.I heard echoes of my name as I went lost in thought.“Yulia!” Issa’s concerned voice snapped me out of my trance.“You are not taking this news well,” He said to me.I abruptly stood up and the chair scraped on the floor, almost toppling over.“I need some air,” I said and headed for the exit. The people in the café suddenly felt too much and I was feeling quite a bit suffocated.Issa followed me outside but Jamal remained sitting, drinking his free coffee.Once outside, I leaned forward, putting my hands on my knees as I breathed in and out. I was shaking with anxiety. I did not know if I had the ability to hear any more of my unknown origin.“We can call it a night if you want,” Issa offered, his voice filled with concern.“No
FATED TO MY UNCLE 88. DARKNESS UPRISING
~ISSAThe body brought back memories. Deep dark forgotten memories. There was no point in denying anything any longer. They were getting bolder with this act and it was time to go on the offensive.“Dear gods,” Whispered, Yulia with a look of terror as she looked up at the large oak tree where the human had been grotesquely nailed. Blue Lake Public Park was filled with forensic analysts who took pictures of the signs drawn around the tree and the blood splattered on the branches.“She should not be seeing this, Frostwood,” Jamal whispered to me.“I can hear you, werewolves have super hearing abilities, Detective,” Yulia said, unable to take her eyes off the corpse nailed to the tree.“Fine, you should not be here, this is not your scene,” Jamal said. He turned to me. “Stop exposing your niece to things like this.”I was tired of hiding the fact that I was already mated to Yulia but I was not sure I trusted Jamal just yet. He currently answered to no one and that worried me.“I can n
