My mother was already panting. I know she's been catching her breath. It's very painful to see how my mother suffered in this situation.“M-mom… I will bring you to t-the pack doctor. Y-you should be treat—”Mom stopped me from talking by pressing my hands. She looks at me with her eyes filled with love.“It's not needed, Margaux. Don't worry about me because I'm all prepared. It's good to die by saving the only daughter that I have.”Hearing the words from mom, makes me tremble in pain again. I used my upper lips to prevent myself from sobbing so hard by just biting it.“No one will die in this family, mom. I am not allowing it. You're not leaving us. Did you understand?”Of course, I don't want to lose another loved one. Uncle Joe and Willow's death almost made me crazy and I couldn't handle the pain if the next person to die was the light of the family.“But—”Mom wanted to complain, but I didn't allow her to. I don't want to hear everything that she wants to say because I know she
On the way, my mind was with Jace. I can't stop thinking about him. There might be a big possibility that the Southeast Kingdom brought Jace with them after I let out a force that blows them away. They brought him to use against me.“What's your plan, Margaux?”I stopped walking when I heard Justin speak from behind me.“Let's attack the Southeast Kingdom.” I uttered, which made him gasp.“We are attacking the Southeast Kingdom?”A deep breath escaped from my throat after I heard what he asked of me. I already made up my mind. The only way for me to find out where Jace was, is by attacking the Southeast Kingdom. “That's the only way for us to determine if they captured Jace.” I responded to him.Justin let out a sigh and then nodded his head. I know he agreed to what I've said.“But it's just the two of us. Our enemies are numerous. We are attacking the entire Kingdom and you know, we can't fight them.”I turned around at Justin's direction when he mentioned those words. His eyes, I
I thought I wouldn't care about this kingdom because this was ruled by my father. But as time passes by, I've realized that this place has become part of my childhood. This was taken good care of by my mother. She died protecting this kingdom in the hands of the enemies.“This is not all about saving my Alpha, but also getting what's ours.”As I was saying those words, my eyes were at the southeast kingdom. I know that Damon was preparing for my arrival. He's not a fool to be comfortable without planning anything against me. But I don't care about his plans. I am wise and I will use that to escape from his bait.“I am doing this to the innocent werewolves who suffered in the evil doings of Damon.”I nodded my head to agree with Justin. The way he spoke those words, I could feel his determination. The determination of saving the other innocent werewolves living here. And it's now the time.“Are you ready, Justin?” I asked and even looked back to see his reaction.“For everyone, I am re
All those words that I heard made me look at him. He's awakened from being unconscious earlier. But what he said stunned me. It seems impossible.“I don't know what you're saying about this, Jace.” I uttered, which made him sigh.“Damon admits to me that I am his son. He showed me proof. A proof where he was with my mom and a picture of me. They were both in the same picture.”My mouth opened up in disbelief. “No, that's not true. Damon was fooling you, Jace. Please don't believe him. Don't believe this liar bastard!” I screamed and was about to attack him when Jace stopped me by holding my wrist.My eyes stared at his hand, which made my tears fall down from my eyes. I couldn't control my tears from falling anymore as I started to absorb those revelations I had heard from them.“We are not forcing you to believe us, Margaux. But Jace... He knows the truth.” Damon uttered.I was still looking at Jace with my eyes filled with tears. His eyes were also telling me how this revelation al
The tears that I tried to hold back earlier, fell from my eyes when Jace leaves me. He didn't even hug me and I don't see any reason for him to do that. All I need to know is to accept the fact that we are not really for each other.There are things I needed to prioritize first. One of them is to free this kingdom in the hands of Damon. I don't know if he meant what he said earlier. But I really do hope that Damon and Lilith leave the southeast kingdom. Although this seemed to be impossible to happen, I have to prepare for him.“What's your plan, Margaux?” Luna asked at the back of my head, so my eyes diverted at her.“I don't know, Luna. The truth that I found out still couldn't be digested by my mind and my heart. I can't accept that Jace and I were siblings. You know, to be fair, I don't really feel the similar blood running in our veins.” I said, which made her sigh.“I understand you, Margaux. This truth must be hard to accept because you love him but you know Jace. He won't lie
A year has passed since Jace and I found out that we are siblings. During that revelation, many changes occur. We are not the same as we used to be before that incident happened. Many things had changed already and that includes Jace's love for me.It hurts. A lot. But I couldn't do anything. It has been a year passed too that I searched for evidence that Jace and I were not siblings. I never stop searching for answers, but then I get nothing.The southeast kingdom was finally raised again after many years of being abandoned. The security of the kingdom tightened as preparation in the possibility of Damon's arrival. Although since he's gone, the killings was been stopped. I just hope that he will never come back.“Margaux.”As I heard that familiar voice of a man, I was awakened by my deep thoughts. I turned my head at the back and saw Justin.“Why, Justin?” I asked him.He took a deep breath out before he spoke to me. I just can't prevent myself from furrowing my brows.“I just want
I wouldn't expect that after a year, the pain was still there in my heart. The thought about Jace and I as siblings is not still clear to me.“I couldn't believe it too, Emerald. Jace believed Damon's words.” I uttered.Emerald went in front of me after she heard my statements.“You mean, you didn't believe it?”I walked near the window and looked outside of the Kingdom. It was dark outside and I am sure that at any moment the ball will start. Luxurious cars kept on coming into our place. I know that many visitors are there to attend this annual celebration of the Southeast Kingdom.And I was wondering if Jace was here. It's been a year since I last saw him.“Does he look the same, Emerald?”I asked her and that made her chuckle.“You mean, Alpha Jace? Well, he looks more attractive now. He used to spend time exercising and training.”A smile formed on my lips. I could already visualize Jace in my mind. Even if I didn't see him, I could still visualize his face in my mind.“What about
Time had stopped for a moment. My mind hangs into the air while staring at Joshua. All the words that escape from him don't seem to appear in my head. I couldn't believe I would hear that.“We… We are not related? You mean, Jace and I were not siblings? The three of us are not related to each other?” I asked and Joshua nodded his head.“Yes we are not, Margaux, and thanks for this result. I found out that we are not really related to each other.”Tears started falling from my eyes when I just realized what Joshua told me. My legs trembled and without Joshua's help, I knew I already collapsed to the ground. I am happy and emotional at the same time because after a year, I just found out that Jace and I were not siblings.“This news made my day, Joshua. I never stop praying each day that I could get any evidence to prove that me and my mate were not really siblings. It seems like the moon goddess already heard me.”I was getting emotional for this wonderful news that I have learned from
