Eva The familiar Persimmon fruit tree found only in the unclaimed territory of Woodland caught sight of my eyes, causing the Nostalgic feeling that washed over me to culminate into a light bulb that made me recognize this place. This is not just the unclaimed territory, the all-beautiful lake of Woodland where Rogues were said to have harboured before the Lycans and Werewolves killed them years ago. But this place looked more put together than it was five years ago. It looks more primed than it was when Daniel and I would come here in the afternoon, mostly Days when Father was not around to learn how to swim. Or I would rather say, where he taught me how to swim. Yeah, funny enough, he taught me almost everything. "You like it?" He asked as he turned right to pull over at a closer range. I remember us talking about how this place was so overlooked and would have been better touched and refined into a beautiful location for the people of the kingdom. Now that is what it looks lik
Eva His last statement echoed in my ear, the other intimate times we had spent in this place bouncing around on the walls of my mind bringing up euphoric and painful feelings. The fact that those moments were staged and probably not real punched my heart the more and I bit back the whimper from the pain radiating off my chest and spreading my heart. All this are not helping me. It's only making me relive every single moment I thought were real but were all lies. The laughter, the kisses, the sneaking out at night to watch the Moon. They all made me feel like a complete fool. The fact that I couldn't even figure out then that those moments, secret glances, the kisses, the hugs, the promises, were all a product of his perfect scripting, made me feel worse than I have ever felt when Father would emotionally torture me with his words. I wonder how many of his Men were a part of working out everything that perfectly enticed me. The night campings, the sweet picnics during the day for
Eva"You know that's not true.." he spoke."I know that's not true? So tell me what is true, Daniel. Please tell me. I really want to know." I said stepping over to him and grabbing his shirt while fighting the tingles that came with it. "Tell me that you were the one that wrote those love letters and came up with the endearing lines you always used on me." I looked up at him, hoping with all my heart that it was him. But the silence, the way he tried to look at every other place except me spoke more than he needed to.I let go of his shirt before a mocking laughter splurted from me again. And yes, I was laughing at myself. "Wow. I'm so stupid," I kept laughing and laughing until the laughter was drained and was replaced with tears.I couldn't even get myself to look up at him. At the one who subjected me to this mockery. The same Man I was willing to fight my family for when it came the time for us to make our relationship open and official.The same Man who also promised to fight
Daniel Silence hung over us on our way back home. I had found Eva sitting in that position I tried so much to get her out of before we came here. My heart squeezed within me, spotting her red and weary eyes when I returned to the car after I blew off steam with my run. She said nothing to me but just maintained her gaze towards her side of the window staring out of the glass while her head rested on the chair and she protectively covered herself. I wished there was something I could say that would reduce her pain but it was obvious that I would only aggravate things the more so I kept quiet. She must have tired out sucking for more than two hours since I ventured into the forest. I shouldn't have stayed so long and let her weary herself like this but coming back was also not the solution because I was crazed out of my mind too and needed space to process where everything went wrong. Driving into the Estate, Dave, who was talking with a guard, came over and opened her side of the
Eva I was arranging my things back in the drawer inside the walk-in closet when the door propped open and I knew that Daniel had entered the room. Once again, he didn't spend the night in this room last night and I don't know if I am angry or happy about that but the one thing I know is that I need to fulfil my mission of coming here. I need to find that Halo as soon as I can. I know what happened yesterday broke my heart. I know I was devastated to hear that they were all involved with the game Daniel played on me. Here I thought, after what Lady Mona said at the restaurant that day, that they only knew about it. Only to find out they were parts of it. Here I was, feeling guilty and growing a double mind about following Father's plan after his family accepted me wholeheartedly. I didn't know that was just a facade Daniel probably put them up to. Hearing that they were involved with Daniel in pulling off everything years ago? I didn't know it would break me the same way my family'
Eva "Eva," he said, blocking my way to the door. "I'm sorry for the distraction but I brought breakfast." So he does know that he is a distraction to me. "I'm not hungry," I replied, trying to take advantage of my smallness to move past him but his huge figure took up space and his eyes were too trained on my every step making it impossible. "You didn't eat the whole of yesterday, Eva, so I know you must be hungry." "You didn't care about that yesterday so why are you disturbing me now?" I snapped, scowling at him. "I wanted you to have enough time to yourself, Eva, but believe me, I don't want to be the reason why you starve." He said. "You are not the reason I starve so stop thinking so highly of yourself. I just didn't have the appetite, that's all." "I believe you but at least eat? I made so much effort to make sure you eat this, please don't reject it. And you don't have to eat with me. I will just let you dig in." My eyes moved to the two cups of drinks and I instantly
Eva I was sitting further away from the entrance with wooden ladder shelves covering me from sight so I quickly tucked in some books which might seem suspicious into the shelves behind me while leaving mostly the ones that talked about the creation of shifters on the table. "Hey." I looked up to see Brinda's head peeking out from one of the shelves while her body hid behind it. She smiled when my eyes caught hers. "Hi," I said, arranging the scattered books on the table. "You've been in here all day," she said, bouncing towards me, seated behind a Mahogany reading table. The Large Library is divided into sections by shelves indicating books on different subjects. In the outer section, before the inner section where I sat, there is a Surrounding dark brown couch that blends into the wooden colour of the Mahogany Shelves surrounding it. Walking further, there are other tall ones in vertical facing placements to the inner section of the room where there are four small reading tables
EvaBrinda pulled me into the elevator and then through the hallways leading to the sitting room."Mummy!" Freya bounced just as we stepped into the sitting room."My baby," her mother said, pulling her in for a heartthrobing hug as I watched."How was class today?" She asked her."Uh, I'm still smarter than most of my teachers." she shrugged, drawing a smile from me while her mother rolled her eyes before hugging her again.She is definitely something. Smarter than most of her teachers? It's more like saying she doesn't need to be taught by them but the other way around.She is right though. She is a smart pup. Too sassy for her age even."You think you are smarter than all, huh?" I teased just when she moved to me and hugged me."Not all. Just my teachers. And most of my mates of course," She asserted and I chuckled, petting her cheeks."Have you eaten?" I asked."Not yet. It's not been long since I came back with Daddy." She said motioning to where her Father stood at the far end o
"I was coming in a minute," he tried to explain but I just pushed him back with my palm on his chest lightly, locking the door behind us. "You are already done eating? I'm sorry I had to…""Shh," I said, pushing him flush against me and slamming our lips together. I could still taste the thick whiskey on his mouth and I realised I distracted him so he hadn't brushed yet and this makes it more exciting for me since It's an opportunity for me to show him that I would delightfully kiss him no matter how he tasted."Let's just say I want to have something else for dinner tonight." I whispered against his ear, holding his gaze as my hand tugged on his towel.His eyes were filled with lust and excitement just like mine as I kept leading him back to the bed with backward steps and my hand on his chest. His cock was already straining his towel, doubling my own excitement and quadrupling my arousal.I pulled his towel away, instantly pushing him into the bed and straddling his nakedness. He gr
A noise inside the room drew my attention to see Sneha staring at us with wide eyes."Oh, I'm sorry," Sneha almost stumbled with the tray in her hands. "I didn't mean to intrude." Snapping out of my daze, I went to help her but Hectar, or I would say, his Lycan now on the surface, held firmly to my wrist not letting me go for even a second.She was out of the room in an instant and shut the door behind her. I could feel my Lycan pushing me to take control but I held her back, no way I'm letting this spiral out of control.His hands wrap around my waist, leaning down to capture my lips when I pull away, still trying to wrap my head around what exactly was happening. I watched hurt play in his eyes before Hectar pushes forward again. "I'm sorry," He said, "My Lycan must have… I'm leaving now." He turned to leave but I held back his arm."Hectar, wait," I knew my stepping back hurt him as well and he will think I'm probably rejecting him because of that."Hear me out okay? Don't assume."
Miranda PovIt had been two weeks since we ended Nashita and Aaron's plans and rebuilt some of the damaged houses and Malls of our territory after the honorary burial of our dead warriors and compensation of their families was done.I had felt more empty inside when I felt my final tether with Edward slip away after his death and a huge void grow heavily in my heart. Normally, Hectar's presence and friendship would have been my bedrock in this hard time but he had gone along with Reymond to an emergency foreign assignment since his trusted Men happen to have died in the confrontation, so Hectar was the only one less busy enough to follow him to it right after the next day of the war.So I have practically not seen or heard from him ever since, which didn't make me me happy because he was practically the only one I had been able to rely on completely for so many years and his absence happen to really dial in on how much he meant to me more than I had realised when he was around.He init
"I'm sorry for the awful ways I treated you, Eva. Please forgive me, Sister." A nostalgic feeling washed over me remembering how she cried like a baby when she was just five years and I found her hidden inside the wardrobe when Greg unintentionally left her over at school and went off with his friends thinking that Lisa had picked her up already, leaving her there till late at night when we went out to find her.In fear, she had jumped into my arms exactly like this when I found her before everyone and sobbed heavily.I felt warmth over my heart and tears beginning to form in my eyes. "Please…" she said again in her usual childish voice she always used on Lisa when she wanted to get her to agree and let her have her naughty way.I chuckled causing a tear to slip down my eyes. I placed my hand on her silky long blonde hair. "It's fine, Anisha, I Forgive. I had forgiven you a long time ago.""Thank you," she sniffed, tightening her arm around me and I moved my hand caressing her hair and
"You will be fine, Father, everything will be alright." I tried to sound strong, hoping that I could use my healing abilities on him.He shook his head and smiled sadly and in pain.The several bandages on his chest were already getting soaked with blood and the life I felt living in him when I pressed my hand against him to try and restore him told me that he was not just blasted in his heart, but he didn't want to live. He was not fighting it. My Father was not fighting something for once in his life."Father, you can do this. Please just fight this." I begged, desperately trying to channel my healing energy in him though I was already so drained from restoring Daniel and had only so little left. But he was not accepting it. It was like his body was rejecting my powers. I didn't understand. I was confused and frustrated. I didn't know that someone could refuse receiving the healing energy being channelled. I never saw it in the book about Volcono Lycans Mum gave me to read."Let it g
Eva"Here I thought you were as powerful as I saw in my vision but it seems I was mistaken. Or maybe you haven't gotten full access to your power." She laughed hysterically before her torture increased, becoming unbearable.Her eyes flashed to pure black as her bulbs of energy became fiery the more it zapped out from her hand. "I will just have to take your powers then, you won't be needing it now.""You will never win!" I spat in anger feeling rage and pain fill me because of my failure once again. I was supposed to be the one with the highest advantage of strength and power, yet here I was under this godforsaken witch, feeling just as useless as I felt that night of the attack five years ago.Maybe I am not what was said I am. Maybe Mother was mistaken when she said I was the most powerful creature in the shifter's world currently. I was a failure and this was proving it.The bolt of life I felt leaving me made me hopeless the more I tried to trash against her magic but my whole bod
I wanted to make sure that whatever happened, the next generation of Lycans and werewolves were preserved and that is exactly what we are doing.I could feel a rush of dread that ran through me the more we advanced closer. It was obvious we were getting closer to Nashita and her herds with every passing thud of our paws on the ground as we sped in our Lycan form towards their direction while still keeping Eva's voice active in my mind. Hearing her somehow gave me courage and empowered my beast to dive into what could be our possible end of everything goes haywire but the desire to still fulfil that 'forever' promise we made to each was a pump to the fighter in us. We would not die. We would fight with our whole life.The added thud of not just our warriors in full speed with me, but the noise I could now hear coming from the ravenous beasts approaching us was a testament that it was about to go down, and go down fast. Dust splattered on the ground as our large purrs brushed the now sa
DanielWe had been preparing for close to a month now trying to get ourselves ready for whatever is coming our way while trying to use as many gifted Lycans as possible to trace Nashita and Aaron's hideout and possibly take them by surprise, attacking them before they attack us. But we haven't been able to do so. It was like their layer was protected by a powerful impenetrable shield that Amaya called Blood magic.Apparently, Aaron had been using his powerful Lycan blood, as a Swarv bloodline, to mix with their magic and create powerful spells and enchantments while also creating those horrible beasts he called his creations. Which explains why his eyes had turned from its normal Lycan black to a mixture of Crimson signalling his long use of magic mixing with his blood and making him ten times more powerful than he was before.We were however able to figure out when they were preparing to attack, leveraging Eva's power of sight and Liam's instincts."Come in," I said, rummaging through
EvaToday we welcomed the pups and Nana from the orphanage back at home who Daniel decided to bring in using the Jet and assign the old Mansion as a dwelling location until everything back in the Werewolf territory was calm. A cloaking spell was also doubled where they were and safety guilds were put in place to checkmate everyone's movements for the next few days.Meanwhile we have been going for meetings with the Alphas and the Lycan territory Gammas on how to deal with what was happening and it has not been going well for days now. It was like everyone of our plans were being leaked out and us finding the Alpha that was working with Aaron and Nashita using my power of sight actually confirmed it.We were able to convince him of safely bringing his pups back and I was able to bring about cooperation with the Alphas by using my Alpha voice and Lycan authority to calm the situation showing them that I had both beasts and therefore not out against either.Today's meeting has actually tu
