Alessia's pov

We walked down the passageway in silence, both of us reeling in our own worlds.

‘‘Where exactly are we heading to?’’ I broke the silence.

“Uhm, I didn't give that a thought yet.’’ She sucked air from her teeth. “Have you been to the garden before?’’

‘‘Not really.’’

“Shall we then?’’ She offered.

“The garden at this time, I don't think it's safe.” I shook my head at the idea.

“Alright we could just seat at the porch and take in the beautiful scents.’’ She shrugged.

I said nothing more and just struded with her until we arrived at the supposed porch. This one wasn't familiar to me, I hadn't been out through the back of the mansion before.

Thanks to the effectual bulbs, lights beamed adequately around here so it was possible to see the thin road amidst the field on the ground that led to the garden. It was pretty close to the porch just like Astrea had initiated. Blissful flowery scents constituted the air, it was a beautiful moment to experi

    Chapter 26Alessia's pov“Who's there?’’ My voice shook. My breath heavy, with beads of sweat pouring down my skin. I made a pawn at the door again when a monster appeared before me. About 7'2ft with a broad frame that swallowed up my shadow effortlessly, bloodshot eyes and sharp long scary claws. A lycan beast. Another jumped in from the left, and another from the right, and a pool of them before I knew it, all growling mercilessly. I peeped on myself when they all howled to the sky, the full moon…..The full moon? How could I have forgotten?“No. No, please….’’ I screamed in horror as they all came at me. Lights left my eyes as sharp claws tore through my face, leaving streams of blood down my neck. Another pricked into my ribs, my arms, sipping life out of me with every gushing wound. I slumped, catching a glimpse of bright light as my eyes popped open with the descending force. If I was in my right state of mind, I'd have admitted that it came from me. My vision blurred out

    Chapter 27Annalise's pov“Liah!’’ I snapped, sending daggers glares at her. “Get over here this minute.’’She left Adrian's side and approached me at the head of the dining table while he tried to climb a seat somewhere at the other end. I helped Liah seat and fastened her bib, ignoring the gloomy face she put out while at it. “Adrian, hold on I'll help you up.’’ Eliza yelled, approaching from the kitchen with a tray of breakfast. She quietly helped him seat and fastened his bib. Not like she usually said any casual words to me on a normal day, so I didn't expect any from her either. However….“What was that, Annalise?’’ She asked. “What are you talking about?’’ I asked back, trying my best to sound the most polite I could. “Both Liah and Adrian arrived here together, how couldn't you help him seat despite knowing how high the chair is?’’ Was she scolding me right now?‘‘I don't get it. I'm expected to help him sit as what? A maid?’’Footsteps approaching from the exit passage c

Not even one percent?’’ I asked, amused. “Not at all.’’ Lance answered. “Blessed fuck!’’ I exclaimed underneath my breath. Just what exactly could have happened last night?“Tell me all that you remember.’’ I demanded Lance. Apparently, he was the leader of the troupe who messed with Alessia last night. That constituted my nark towards him, even though I knew too well that he couldn't be blamed. ‘‘Uh..I um…I really can't remember clearly….’’“Tell me what you remember.’’ I cut him with a snap. “We lunged at her and she fell weak with all the bites. We were about to milk her blood when a strange brightness evoked from her. It literally blinded us. That is the last thing I remember before waking up back in my human form.’’ He explained.

    Chapter 29Astrea's povI was still dealing with the shock that drenched me at the sight of Lola on her knees minutes ago. Why the heck was she still here?“Continue with the investigation.’’ Cyril threw a nod at Alan, awakened me from my trail as his footsteps echoed after him. I had heard the report Lance came to give, but it was almost like the details flew off my right ear the same way they had passed through the left.I was left with no options other than rushing after Cyril. It couldn't be related to Lola now could it?I rushed out after him, and stopped on my track when I saw Aloha, the kingdom witch. She exchanged pleasantries with Cyril and I lowered my head in greeting when her eyes found me. “Shall we?’’ Cyril gestured, making his way up first while she followed behind.I followed after them from a mile away, watched them go into the study, before making my way to lean against the door. “I believe you already know why I called you over.’’ Cyril started, the sounds of ch

    Chapter 30Lycan Cyril I sauntered about the suite, waiting for Astrea over a glass of wine. I needed something to distract my thoughts, or rather someone. I could go crazy if I stayed alone for too long. She came in moments later, I didn't bother looking up until her steps approached the couch where I sat. ‘‘Seat.’’ I swatted my jaw to the opposite couch.She went to sit. This wasn't the vibe I needed, why was she so quiet? “What's going on with you?’’ I asked before it hit me. She must have been dulled out by the incident with Alessia. “Me? Uh nothing. I mean you called me here like that, so you must have something big to discuss about.’’ She answered, wavering my initial belief.“Back at the clinic…’’ I paused, shifting my gaze to the table. “I was worked up with the whole shit and ignored you.’’“Oh.’’ She seemed to loosen up a bit which was fine. “It's okay. I understood that you were just worried. Already said she'd be fine though.’’‘‘Did you happen to meet with Alessia, l

    Chapter 31Alessia's povI met blurry brightness. Slowly, my vision cleared out to a white ceiling. Not your regular ceiling, this one had some weird rocky designs on it that left my brain puzzled. I snapped my eyelids at the sound of voices bickering, lowering my gaze to meet two familiar figures. “What? She's awake.’’ Alan pointed at me, causing Lycan Cyril to look back immediately. ‘‘What's going on?’’ My voice came low and weak. Pain slowly stretched through my body with an alarming sense of discomfort. “I'll go get Alfred.’’ Alan said, bolting out of the room.I returned my gaze to Lycan Cyril, and I almost choked on saliva when I met his eyes glinting with anger. “Why didn't you listen to me?’’ He asked through gritted teeth, causing me to swallow hard.I'd seen every part of him, but I doubted I'd experienced this part before. Just what was this man's deal? One moment he is soft, the next moment he is a raging beast. ‘‘W-what…are you….’’“I vividly recall warning you agai

I turned away from the railings to see her resting with her shoulder on the verandah entrance. “Since the early hours of the morning, you've been dying to see her wake up. Now she is finally awake and here you are?’’ She added?I turned my gaze back to the air with a silent sigh. I heard her footsteps approaching, and soon she appeared beside me, placing her arms on the rails as well. I stared briefly at her. “What are you doing here?’’I had almost bumped into her a few minutes ago when she got to learn about Alessia's recovery. On a normal occasion, shouldn't she be by Alessia's side currently?“Alessia seems to be having a bit of a moment with Alan.’’ She shrugged. “I didn't realise they have gotten so close.’’ I darted my gaze back to her. “What do you mean close?’’“Nothing you have to worry about I guess. After all, Alan will never betray you would he?’’ She chuckled.

    Chapter 33 Astrea's pov I watched his gaze size me up, my heart beating drums against my chest as I waited for his lips to spill the words. “Why are you still here?’’ He blurted out instead, taking me a bit aback. Was he still oblivious? “I'm asking what you're still doing on that bed, Astrea!’’ He said again, louder this time. Whoa! Turns out Alessia isn't much of a tramp anyways. I had thought she'd spill it all to his face out of scorn and jealousy. I shifted my gaze from Cyril, releasing my lips from my mouth with a wet sound. “I'm sorry she had to see that, not like I had the least idea that she'd be here.’’ I shrugged. “It's a good now, get back to your room.’’ He rebuked, advancing further into the room but not to the bed. Say the bathroom? “Wait.’’ I called him to a stop. “I stayed to tell you that I'll be leaving by tomorrow morning. I guess I've overstayed my welcome here.’’ I shrugged. I actually stayed just in case Alessia ran her mouth and Cyril

    Chapter 65Thompson's pov I watched elder Ralph, Zach, and elder Mayor in nothing but spite and despise. How weak of them. They couldn't even withhold their honour and stand firm in the presence of the lycans. “We can't win against them. It's too dangerous.’’ Elder Zach complaining, wiping his coat. “They are in our land. We can take anything out in our own land.’’ I spat, irritated.“We can't take nothing. The lycans are dangerous. They are currently raiding the whole pack and you speak like that?’’ Ralph rumbled, sounding pissed. “Men are out there fighting back. The fact that neither of you could fight back doesn't make all others a coward!’’ I spewed, my chest flaming madly with rage. “Are you referring to us as cowards right now?’’ He seethed. ‘‘All these isn't necessary right now. Just stop this now before it is too late, alpha.’’ Elder Mayor chirped in. “I agree to that. The Luna, your wife, should be the one responsible for every blames here and not the lycans or the k

    Chapter 64Alessia's povMy eyes widened in horror, my palms shielding my agape mouth as I watched the man stiffen. He fell off the horse to the ground, dead. “Get her now!’’ Someone yelled from behind, definitely the gun person. I grabbed the horse ropes immediately, kicking the side of the horse aggressively to propel movements from it. I almost lost my balance in the hot chase, but the knowledge of the haunting men behind kept me moving with passion. I saw it coming, but I just didn't expect it to happen so soon. It was another gunshot and a painful neigh from the horse. He collapsed instantly, causing me to roll off on the dusty ground. Tears brimmed my vision as I found my feets, running relentlessly into the bushes by the side of the road.They were Silverstone men, and they were obviously on to catch me and return me to the dungeon where Thompson might eventually have my head chopped off and placed on a stake in the pack’s square. I ran as fast as my legs could accompany m

    Chapter 63CYRIL’S POV “Get him! Don't let him get in!!’’ Thompson screamed amidst his sword clash with Alan. Lance had just taken out the last of his staged men. Now just the elders were left by the entrance, trembling timidly to their feets. I started straight to the door with my gaze planted on the three men, looking out for what moves they'd throw. They scurried aside fearfully once I approached, allowing me unhindered access into the building. Lance followed after me while Alan dealt with Thompson. Not a single soul pranced the living room, nor the passage, nor any corners in sight. “I'll check upstairs. You check the passage.’’ Lance alarmed, retreating for the stairway already. I directed my steps into the passage, straight down to wherever it led. An indistinct sound nearby stole my attention immediately. If I hadn't heard it, I wouldn't have realised the almost invisible door by the side. I slowly turned closer, my heart thrashing with so much anticipation. I turned t

The guards would drag me back to Thompson if they found me here. ‘‘I guess you didnt realise it?’’ The doctor squinted, scanning me intensely.His measly stare made me instantly cautious of my dress. I'd been in the same dress for about four days without a chance to sprinkle even little water on my body. Definitely, I reeked!Taking two steps backwards, I cleared my throat. ‘‘Uhm….’’“I heard she's the cause of the war. Apparently she had an affair with the lycan king and now he wants to take her from the Alpha.’’ A lady muttered into the silence, her words echoing through the walls instead of the woman's ear she leaned into. “Will you be quiet!’’ The woman whom I suggested was the lady mother after a nice look, snapped at her daughter. But her gaze on me was nothing close to remorseful or friendly. ‘‘Get me my son. I can't stay one more minute here.’’ I resolved to say, unable to keep up with the awful g

  • Fated for the Lycan   GETTING HELP

    Chapter 61Alessia's pov An eerie silence roamed the space outside after the hurrying footsteps of guards left. A guard had rushed in moments ago to call the staged guard by the door of the dungeon.It sounded really urgent; the reason he had been called out of duty. But I couldn't make out what the guard reported through the thick door, besides I felt too weak to even lift a hand. Another sharp sting of hunger plunged at the top of my stomach, leaving a squeaking yelp off my lips as I grabbed the spot in a thought squeeze. Even though I guessed it couldn't be about food, I kept praying the guard had left to get me something to eat. I might starve to death if I get nothing to eat tonight. Telling what time of the day it was seemed in fact impossible, since it always remained pitch back in here. This was pure torture. It's now obvious that Thompson wants me dead. What was I thinking, wanting to stay with him despite everything he's done to me? He had shown me countless times how

    Chapter 60CYRIL’S POV “He's crazy.’’ Lance remarked, leaving a sigh off Alan's lips.‘‘I'll give him just until two days time to come around.’’ I said calmly.“But why are you so calm about it, this is so not your type thing to do.’’ Lance complained. There must be something I was missing on. Ever since the topic with Thompson, Lance has been unusually annoyed. He swore and cussed under his breath all through the call with Thompson; we had been in a meeting when his call came in. “Do you have a beef with him before now or something?’’ Alan voiced just the exact question on the tip of my tongue. Lance scoffed. “A beef? I'll rather go hiking on the highest mountain in the city.’’“That two days waiting period, you know what it's called?’’ I let a smirk curved up on my lips. Seeing their blank faces, I went on. “Reflecting period. I doubt there's anyone who wouldn't need that. During this time, he gets to decide what plan of action might be best for him.’’ I relaxed back on my cha

They returned home following the orders of the lycan king.’’“Their king was with then?’’ I asked again in amusement, a strong stroke crossing down my abdomen.‘‘Yes, Alpha. Is

I hated that he managed to steal a skip from my heart.I strolled down to the cellar for a drink, aware of the implications Cyril’s message could likely bring about.Settling down before the table with my index and middle fingers caging the tiny bottom of my wine glass, I tapped on my message box.

I heard him punch some codes on the only door that uses a code down here. The dungeon. “No!’’ I grabbed his hand as he pulled my face up. “No please, don't do this Thompson.’’I couldn't contain the coldness of his face. It forced me into believing he had his mind made up and indeed he did. He flung me into the darkness ignoring my pleads, and slammed the door shut before I even landed on the floor. Dust wafted into my nostrils. Smelly dusts that dug deep coughs from my throat. I staggered to my feets and rushed back to the door. “Let me out.’’ I banged, horribly terrified by the consuming darkness. I couldn't even see my own hands. “Thompson let me out of here, please!!’’ I screamed, my heart thrashing with horror at the scary silence that responded to my voice.Did he leave already? He was really leaving me in here?“Thomp….’’ I trailed
