In modern-day New Orleans, 28 year-old Deuce Rylan is a charismatic and powerful Alpha werewolf. He's haunted by a centuries-old curse that has plagued his family since the 18th century. Elise Laurent, a beautiful and mysterious 24 year-old witch, is struggling to control her magic. She's haunted by dark visions and pursued by a powerful witch hunter from her past. When Deuce and Elise meet, they're drawn to each other despite the danger their families' histories pose. As they navigate ancient prophecies, and their own forbidden attraction, they must confront the darkness of their families' pasts.
View MoreGabrielle sat cross-legged on her bed, her eyes closed, and her hands clasped together around one of Elise's ornaments. She focused on her breath, clearing her mind, and reaching out with her senses. She tried to connect with Elise, to feel her energy. Maybe this time, she might get something. Her mind expanded, searching for that familiar spark that was uniquely Elise. At first, there was nothing. Only a dull, space where Elise's presence should have been. She sighed in frustration but continued. Suddenly, a faint hum filled her mind, and Gabrielle felt a jolt of recognition. Elise was there, but her energy was weak, fragmented, and laced with fear. Gabrielle's eyes snapped open, and she felt a surge of alarm. Something was wrong. Elise was in trouble. She was in danger before, but this felt more dangerous, and for her to sense her, she must be near. That means she must have escaped. Gabrielle's mind was racing with possibilities, her heart pounding with a sense of urgency. S
As the shadowy figures closed in, Elise's instincts screamed at her to run. But her legs felt heavy as if they were rooted to the spot. Lucas's eyes seemed to gleam with amusement, and he took a step closer to her. "Welcome to our little family," he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "I think you'll find us as a very...hospitable bunch." Elise's eyes darted around the clearing, searching for an escape route. But the figures had formed a semi-circle around her, trapping her. Suddenly, a figure emerged from the shadows. He was tall, with piercing blue eyes and jet-black hair. He regarded Elise with a calculating gaze, and she felt a shiver run down her spine. "Ah, Victor," Lucas said, with a nod. "I see you've brought the rest of the pack." Victor's eyes narrowed. "What's going on here, Lucas?" he growled. "You said you are going to bring that witch." Lucas smirked. "Yes. Introducing you to the princess of destruction." His voice dripped with sarcasm as he introduced Eli
"He's coming this way" "What? You said he would be distracted with his meeting.""I guess the meeting ended quicker than I thought."The steps grew closer and Lucas pulled Elise into a corner. "Shut your damn mouth, or you will be sacrificed today." Lucas covered her mouth with his hands and waited until Deuce and a few guards passed."We have to move fast. He's heading to his room, it's only a matter of time until he notices you're gone." He removed his hands from her mouth and dragged her to the exit. The guard at the entrance was his ally judging by how quickly he opened the door without asking any questions. They reached outside and for the first time in weeks, Elise felt a sense of freedom. The air that hit her skin made her feel alive and eager to get back to her coven. She was too lost in this thought that she didn't hear Lucas. "What?""I said I hope you can run."Lucas sighed when Elise didn't respond. "You're not that princess who can't run in a gown, are you?"Elise sco
"Soon, you'll be begging for mercy, and I'll enjoy watching you suffer." Deuce's threat echoed in Elise's mind long after he left the room. She felt a chill run down her spine as she wondered what he had planned for her. She knew she was going to die eventually but she hoped for a change of fate. As she sat on the couch, trying to calm her racing thoughts, she heard the sound of footsteps outside. The door opened, and Lucas walked in without knocking. "Asshole," Both he and Deuce. "I see Alpha paid you a visit," he said, his eyes scanning the room. "You seem to forget this is his room." Elise didn't look at him. "And you've also forgotten I'm his beta." He smirked when Elise didn't respond. Lucas's expression turned grim. "You're a valuable asset to him," he said. "He'll stop at nothing to keep you here. After all, you're a threat." The word threat rang in Elise's mind again. "Threat. " She scoffed and looked at Lucas, their eyes on each other. "You all claimed you fe
"Good," Deuce said, a hint of satisfaction in his voice. "I want you to spread it around the perimeter of our den. Make sure it's undetectable." Lucas nodded and turned to leave. Deuce watched him go, his mind already turning to the next phase of his plan. The water witches were getting closer, and he needed to be prepared. Meanwhile, Chloe and Elise made their way back to their quarters, still shaken by the encounter with Monica. "I'm sorry about what happened," Chloe said, as they stepped inside. "I shouldn't have taken you to the pool." Elise shook her head, still coughing up water. "It's not your fault," she said. "I'm just glad we got out of there before things got worse." Chloe nodded, "We need to be more careful," she said. "Monica's is evil, she does bully others and gets away with it. I hope you find a way to get out of here, sooner." Elise's eyes narrowed, "I hope so too. I still have things to fulfill. My aunt would be in deep sorrow including my best friend."
I moved closer and I didn't stop even though my mind was screaming stop. As if to tempt me more, she licked her lips and it brought the pinkness more. I swallowed hard and quickly stood up, not allowing any room for temptation. I looked at her again, and a part of me wanted to stare at her forever. Before I do anything stupid, I step away from it and head to the bathroom. Elise and Chloe sit at the table with poker cards. They stare at each other, none of them giving themselves away. "It's your turn. Go ahead" Chloe smirked. Elise stared at her card and pulled out a king card. "Get that" She chuckled "Hey." A few minutes later, they finished the third round of the game. Chloe went out of the room to get some snacks. She sat down and started bringing the snacks out of the mini basket; underneath were two books she had picked from her room. Elise picked one, attracted by the cover. "Be careful, that book made me shed rivers." Chloe smiled "Why would you cry over a book?
Elise Pov I found myself in the living room and saw a figure that looked exactly like me. Everything was just like it was yesterday. "Didn't this happen yesterday?" I walked closer to the couch and tapped her but received no response. I tried again but still no response. Just then, Deuce came out of the bathroom and I had the same look just like yesterday. Before he came closer I shared myself out of the thought and turned to my past form that's still staring at his abs. That was when I realized I was also naked. I quickly cover myself with my tiny hands, at least they cover my nipples. "Don't come close," I shouted, but what shocked me was when he passed through me like I wasn't there and didn't feel any kind of pain. "How is this possible? Why did I come back to these embarrassing moments." "So I can't be seen or feel? This should be fun." Without being seen, I can do so many things, like kick that wolf's butt. I looked back to see the scene I hated myself for. Deuce was laying o
In the Raven's coven, the evening sun shines brightly into the room. Gabrielle's dress swept the floor as she walked over to where Amaya was sitting "Your tea" "Thank you" Amaya nuked at her and settled down her cup after taking a few sips."You said you noticed sometimes strange?" Gabrielle nodded. "Yes, at first, I didn't think much about it, but earlier today, I heard Ava say something that confirmed my suspicion. "What did you hear!" Gabrielle moved over and showered it into her ears Amaya raised her brows "I thought only the lunar witch has the ability of such power" " That's true and you know what, I have some doubts about her. She came into my room last night, and I caught her with strands of my former hair, and her nails were red." Amaya, now finished with her tea, gently said, "I asked her to prepare a medication with your hair, but isn't she a white witch? And I know she hates wearing anything apart from white" Gabrielle nodded in agreement "In her face was fear th
"And where are you going?" For a minute, Elise didn't move from her spot. She held the books tightly as she turned around to meet the cold look on the guard's face. He looked at the way she wasn't fully dressed and brought his face back to hers "Where are you headed this late? He asked again but Elise only stuttered in response. "I...I." She cleared her voice and gave a soft chuckle "I was just going out for some fresh air." "Ok, let me escort you." "No, need. I'm feeling sleepy, I'll go back in now." She faked a yawn and closed the door behind her. "What happened?" Another guard asked the previous one "Nothing" "Phew, that was close." She sighed and made her way back to the couch. "I almost made it though. That guard deserves a mute spell." She sighed and kicked the air. She jumped in fear when she felt something on the couch as she sat on it. "Ahh" She shouted in fear. Everywhere was dark, so she couldn't see clearly "Welcome back." A deep voice sounded behind he
Elise had always felt like an outsider in her own life. She had a strange, unexplainable energy building inside her, and she couldn't shake the feeling that she was being watched. That night, at the Moonlight Masquerade, Élise wore a stunning red gown and a mask that shimmered like diamonds. She danced and laughed with her friend Sophie, feeling carefree for the first time in weeks. It's also the night the ancient witches choose the heir to the covens and also bestowed the witch the first three wiccan covens. As the night wore on, Elise felt a strange, unsettling energy building inside her. She tried to shake it off, but it only grew stronger. Meanwhile, a mysterious figure stood alone, his eyes scanning the crowd with an intensity that made people shiver. He was searching for something, or someone. I think I've had enough for tonight. Let's get out of here. Elise said looking around her surrounding Elise, what's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost. Sophie who was ...
