Chapter 33Cassie Robert"Who's there?" I ask as I stretch my neck forth to check around. I bet someone is around here, but I have no idea where the person is. "What are you doing with him?" The voice sounds somewhat familiar, and I squint my eyes, trying to recall where I must've heard the voice from before. I'm sure I've heard that voice before but I have forgotten where I have heard it from. Still trying to recall, he suddenly pops out from behind the tree in front of me, and I flinch. It's the person I saw in the garden some time ago. The one that had tattoos on his arm and chest. Gosh! I have forgotten his name. "Oh, it's you?" "Milo..." He calls, and the cat meow at him. What! Does he know the cat? "Do you by chance...""Yes. That's milo, my cat. Did it trouble you?" He asks with a questioning look on his face, and I quickly shake my head. "Not at all. I saw it wandering in the garden, and I felt it'll be thirsty, so I gave it some water. I thought it got lost, so I was goi
Chapter 34"Yeah... Harder... Faster... You're so sweet," Recalling the horrible moans of Astrid, Cassie pulls a disgusting face as she crashes on her bed, letting out a scoff. She has been trying to get it off her head, but it's not working. The more she thinks about the awful incident, the more she felt her blood boiling in rage. "Why am I even angry, huh?" She stops to ask herself, and when she didn't get any answer to it, she groans frustratingly as she sits up on the bed, her fingers ruffling her hair roughly. "Meow... Meow..." The crying voice of Milo pulls her attention, and she tilts her head to see the white little cat lying on the floor. Seeing the cute little cat, a wide smile spread on her face, but it only lasts for ten seconds and it disappears again as the realization hits her hard. She hasn't fed the cat. It wasn't her fault that she returned from the alpha's chamber earlier this morning all tired after working her ass out there. "Milo... I'm so sorry," She whines a
Chapter 35"No! This can't be! Me? In love with alpha Damien? Oh! I'm losing my mind," Cassie whines frustratingly, running her fingers through her hair. It was almost evening, and she came to the garden with Milo to get fresh air. Zoey's words have been replaying in her head, and she has been trying to wrap her head around everything, but it's driving her crazy. As much as she wants to convince herself that she's not in love with him, seeing the truth staring back at her, she can't deny it. His image flashes through her mind, and she finds her heart beating rapidly, causing her to clutch it tightly as if preventing it from popping out of her chest. "Oh no! This is not happening," She shrieks for the umpteenth time, hitting her chest slightly. "Milo, what's happening?" She looks to her side and asks the little cat that is busy drinking from the drops of water that fills a large portion of a leaf. "Meow... Meow..." Milo cries out again, and she sighs deeply realizing that the innoc
Chapter 36"Cassie!" Alpha Damien's thunderous voice echoes in the garden, getting Kai and Cassie's attention. The two snaps their head in the direction to see him standing just at the entrance of the garden. "My...my lord..." She stutters nervously, as she turns her face away. "What are you doing here?" He finally walks over to them, his gaze not leaving her body. He has an angry look on his face. "I...I... I was taking a rest here," Her heart thumps heavily against her ribcage as she stares everywhere else except his face. Damien bites the bottom of his lips, glaring hard at her. His heart keeps beating rapidly as he clenches his fists beside him, his blood boiling in pure rage for no reason. Taking a deep breath, he raises his gaze to his annoying friend, as he glares at him. "Why? Are you angry?" Kai's voice suddenly echoes in his head, and he scoffs loudly. "Why should I be?" He replies in telepathy. "Sorry, but you're not good at hiding your feelings, it's written all ove
Chapter 37At the priest's chamber..."To what do I owe this sudden visit, my lord?" The priest asks as he stares at Damien sitting across from him. "I'm running out of patience, Raul. Why is this taking so long? Are you doing anything about it at all?" Alpha Damien asks with anger resounding in his voice. His head is already getting messed at the thought of her, his heart is getting hurt realizing that he's having this feeling toward her, and he's mad at himself that he can't even control himself. Yes, he's seeing the red flags, he knows what this feeling is, but maybe he's trying to pretend that it's not what it really is. He thought that he would be able to get rid of it if he tries to change his thinking, but it seems like with every second that ticks, the feeling has become stronger. He can't let this continue, letting himself fall in love with the daughter of a traitor has never been what he dreamt of, this only happens in movies and book series, and to think that it's happenin
Chapter 38"How much do you love him?" Kai asks her, and she sighs deeply. She has stopped crying already, and they're now sitting together in the garden while staring at the river. "I...I don't know," She whispers and bites the bottom of her lip. "Damien... You should give him some time. Maybe he's going through something sad now and needs some time to heal, OK? I'm sure he will come around," Kai assures her, and she nods her head. Seeing someone who loves his dear friend so much makes him happy, and he can't help wishing that he realizes how much this girl loves him, and maybe make her his forever. "He hates me. I am the seed of a traitor, he won't ever look at me the way I see him," A drop of tears slid down her cheeks, and she smiles painfully. "You'll be fine, OK? Come here," he pulls her into his arms and hugs her warmly. "Cassie..." Zoey's voice suddenly distracts them, and she quickly pulls away from Kai. "Zoey..." She calls as she stands up to her feet and turns to see
Chapter 39"What are you doing here?" Hearing that familiar icy voice, she stops abruptly on her track and takes a deep breath, trying not to appear nervous. Turning around, she almost jumps out of her skin at the sight that welcomes her. There is Astrid, glaring hard at her. "I asked a question, what are you doing here? Are you here to steal something?" Astrid questions her again, and she scoffs unbelievably as she tilts her head around as if she's searching for something. "I asked a question, what are you searching for?" Astrid sounds pissed. "I'm looking around to be sure that there's someone else you're talking to, and not me. Steal something? That's ridiculous. I don't look like a thief, do I?" She scoffs as she crosses her arms on her chest. How come she's suddenly bold and talks back at her in that manner, is what even she has no idea of. "Your father didn't look like a traitor and he still killed the late alpha," Astrid smirks at her, and she gasps as she slowly clenches h
Chapter 40Having her chin resting on her palms while sitting on the chair beside the bed, Cassie stares at Damien with a smile dancing on her lips. She was able to get him to the bed and called the physician to come to attend to him. The physician left just a few minutes ago, and she's going to be looking after him all night. Staring at his handsome sleeping face, her cheeks heat up as she feels her smile widens. He looks extremely handsome even in his sleep. "What's wrong with him? Why was he like that?" That is the question she has been asking herself all night but can't come up with a possible answer to it. A few hours later... Alpha Damien finally forces his eyes open as the blurry ceiling welcomes him. He tries to get used to the environment, and he quickly recognizes the ceiling to be his room's ceiling. Trying to recall what happened the previous night, everything starts playing in his head and he groans tiredly. He remembered going inside the bathroom the previous night t
Epilogue It has been over three months already, and everyone has been living as though nothing happened. Luna Helga has been released after Cassie pleaded with alpha Damien. She has been happy to have found her mom after spending all the previous years of her life without her. Still thinking about her father, although the man was ruthless to her in the past, she can't still help feeling bad about everything. Maybe she should've controlled herself and not killed him, but it wasn't her fault that everything happened. It was what has already been written by fate, and no one could change it. Lydia and Dean have been seeing each other, she has forgiven her dad after Dean persuaded her, and they'll be having their mating ceremony in a week or two. As for Astrid, she has been sentenced to a few months imprisonment for attempting to murder Cassie. It's a beautiful evening, and Cassie is staring up at the dark sky on the balcony. Thinking about everything that happened these past few month
Chapter 72Five days later... Cassie forces her eyes open slowly, as the blurry ceiling welcomes her. Her head hurts slightly, and she groans in pain, shutting her eyes. Trying to recall what happened, a sharp gasp escapes her throat as she finally recalls everything. The last thing she remembered was being on the battlefield, and she suddenly slumped after she took an attack that was meant for Damien. She recalled taking her father's life on the spot, and that woman? Is she OK? And Damien, was he able to escape?"You're awake..." Alpha Damien's excited voice sounds as he walks inside the room with a smile plastered on his lips. He has just gone out a few minutes ago to get something important done. Tilting her head in the direction of the voice, she can't help the drop of tears that slid down her cheek. Here she was, thinking that something bad happened to him. Seeing him so healthy and standing in front of her, she can't help the excitement that rushes through her. Slowly, a smil
Chapter 71"Will she be fine?" Alpha Damien asks madam Leila for the umpteenth time after he glances at Cassie, who's still fast asleep. Tears well up in his eyes, but he forces them back and takes a deep breath. "She's weak now, and it may take a while before she recovers from it," Hearing this, his heart sinks into his stomach and he bites his bottom lip. It has been three days already, and she hasn't woken up yet. Will she ever be fine? Will she wake up eventually? "Hmm," He hums and nods his head as he sighs briefly. "I'll be on my way now, my lord," Madam Leila says before she finally strides out of the room, leaving Damien with Cassie. "Are you OK? Will you be fine, hmm?" He speaks softly as he strokes her hair. A drop of tears slid down his cheek. He has missed her so much, and he can't wait for her to finally wake up. But what if she never wakes up again? How will he survive without her? He blames himself for not being able to protect her, and it hurts so much to see her i
He groans angrily, shutting his eyes. Who the fuck is at the door, and why would he or she disturb him at this moment? "Who's there?" He asks angrily. "My lord... There's a problem. Astrid fell into the cliff and fainted," Hearing this, Cassie's heart wrenches in pain as anger shoot through her. Here she was, thinking that it was something serious, little did she know that her husband's mistress is the one in danger. She stares up at him, waiting for his next action. He won't possibly leave her, right? Will he go to her or satisfy her first? "I'll be back," And with that, he pulls away from her and stands up to his feet, grabbing his robe from the floor and wearing it swiftly, storming out of the room afterward like someone worried about his lover. Staring at the closed door, her heart breaks into a million pieces as she slowly clenches her fists. Tears well up in her eyes and they find their way out afterward. What was she even thinking? That he'll care about her more than his w
Chapter 69Blue Moon Pack "Why, Astrid? Why did you do it?" He roars angrily, as he clenches his fists beside him, while he grits his teeth. His blood boils in rage as he stares at her. It's only taking all of his self-restraint not to pounce on her and rip her heart off her chest, but he has no idea for how long he will be able to control this demonic anger that keeps trying to consume him. Astrid drops her gaze sadly as a drop of tears slid down her cheek. Her cover has just been blown, and she's in a deep mess now. Alpha Damien won't spare her, and she knows it. She feels her world crashing down to her feet, and the more the seconds ticks, the more she feels her doom drawing close to her, and she can't help the fear that keeps penetrating her bones and all of her. "I ask again, Astrid... Why did you do it?" His voice is filled with a dark and intimidating aura, as he finally moves his leg. "Forgive me, my lord. I was wrong..." Her voice quivers as she trembles on the floor. Her
Chapter 68Dark Blood Pack "Is... She my...child?" Helga whispers as she stares at the flowers, a drop of tears sliding down her cheeks. She never imagined that a day like this would ever come again. A day she would see this man again. The past she thought she had buried come haunting her, and she can't help the sadness that fills her from within. Why does he have to be the one? Why does he have to show up before her now? Those are the questions that she keeps asking herself as she stares into space. "What happened, Amelie? I thought you died?" Nicolai finally asks the question he has been craving for moments now. He looks shocked and confused. He should be because anyone in his shoe will feel the same way. Just twenty-six years ago, he and this woman were so much in love. Yes, she was the alpha's wife, but he loved her still. He was ready to do anything to be by her side, he was ready to scale through oceans and reach her wherever she was, he loved her with everything that he held
Chapter 67The dark blood pack... Helga sighs for the umpteenth time as she paces restlessly in her chamber. It has been many hours already, and she can't still bring herself to forget about what Cassie told her. Recalling the pain on her face when she was narrating her story to her earlier, she can't help the pain that keeps shooting through her heart uncontrollably. Letting out another brief sigh, she finally sits on the edge of the bed and runs her fingers through her hair in so much confusion. Moments ago, she was waiting for her father to show up so she can finally get what she wants, but now the feeling has changed. She doesn't feel like hurting her again, for some reason which she has no idea of. "Who is she?" She asks herself for the umpteenth time, but too bad that she may never find the answer to her question. Still lost in thoughts, the sound of the knock on the door suddenly pulls her back to reality, and she stares at the closed door for a few seconds, before she fina
Chapter 66Blood moon pack... "Shit!" Nicolai curses under his breath, slamming his hands on the desk. He has been like this since he got a message that Cassie is now held captive in the Dark blood pack. "I can't send Lydia there, Nicolai. Helga is going to kill her," alpha Kayden panics as he says to Nicolai while praying silently that this doesn't turn the other way round again. He has been his puppy for so long, and at this point, he doesn't want to dance to his tune again, not when he knows that his daughter is going to be in trouble. He has been so cruel to the innocent girl and her brother when all they ever do is obey him, all because he was a coward. Now, he has made up his mind to stand up to his fear, and he doesn't care about whatever comes afterward. "How dare you, Kayden! How dare you say no to me? Have you forgotten everything that I have done for you? Have you...""And I have been trying everything to make sure that I repay you, haven't I? I have been your puppy for
Chapter 65"Do you want to hear the bad news?" The corner of his lips slowly twitches into a smirk, as she turns around to face her. Cassie glares hard at her, wondering where this woman is from. Yes, it's obvious that she's a werewolf, but what does she want from her? Why is she doing this to her? Those are the puzzles she has been trying to solve all to no avail. "Not that I care anyway," She scoffs and rolls her eyes, turning her face away, and Helga can't help the dry chuckle that escapes her lips. Easier said than done. Of course, she knows that this little lamb in front of her is just trying to be courageous in front of her, she knows that she cares so much about Damien, and by the time she learns the doom ahead of them, she'll realize that she does really cares. "You'll eventually do, Cassie. Alpha Damien and Dean are on their way here, along with his soldiers..." Helga pauses to observe the shocked expression that suddenly creeps up Cassie's face, and her heart sinks into he
