Skye's POV Robin frowned in annoyance as he walked into the study. These days, this is where I find comfort, in the books of my father. My father was indeed a marvelous writer and a wide intellectual reader. His books had a way of captivating his readers. "This has been sent in by the crescents, Skye and it's directed to you," he said."I'm sure you know what to do with it," I responded still engulfed in one of my father's books and he stared at me dumbly.I took one glance at him and returned to my reading. "Read it out loud," I said to him."I'm afraid I cannot obey you this time, Skye," he replied, and I gave him a hard look. "Forgive me, alpha," he said lowering his head. "But, I cannot read out this abominable letter." he added.I stared at him skeptically. "Bring it," I replied, gesturing to the table.He dropped the letter on the table and I picked it up. With a glance at the letter, I understood it all. A small smile crept at the corners of my lips as I leaned into the chair
Ava's POV Getting married to the blood moon alpha was going to be tough but I did not expect talking to my people to be tougher. It didn't go down well with them that I was going to marry a blood moon."It's for the good of the pack," I tried explaining to them."Good for the pack or good for yourself!" They yelled rebelliously."Ava is right about this. This has to be done because we have no choice. The pack needs to be protected." Uncle Phil intervened."The pack needs to be protected, uh?" Elder John scoffed. "I can't believe you're part of this treachery, siding up with Ava to marry the blood moon, shame on you for that Phil, shame!" He spat out angrily. "Enough!" I said in a voice full of authority. "Is that all you've got to say or you've got more?" I demanded and they began murmuring. "Listen to me," I ordered moving towards them."Ava," uncle called softly trying to stop me."No, uncle, not this time," I responded. "I won't stand here and watch the people you fought so hard
Ava's POV The meeting with the elders was over and I turned to Uncle Phil."Why didn't you tell me you had a mate?" I asked and he shrugged."I didn't see a need to. I was trying to move on," was his response."I can recall very well I asked you if you had witnessed the massacre caused by the demon king before and you told me no," I said staring at him."I didn't want to recall that gruesome moment. Not only Julia was murdered that day. We had lived in fear. Just us crescents having two powerful enemies. How we've managed to be alive and not wiped out of the face of the earth is still a mystery." Uncle said."This will all be over soon. Please, uncle let the message be passed across the whole pack in and outside," I said and he nodded and walked away.I was walking towards the part of the forest where the woods were cut down when I saw Fernandez.Fernandez raged in anger. I've seen him angry a couple of times, but definitely not this way. He was bloody hell furious."How could you dec
Phil's POV He turned out to be everything I didn't think of. I've heard of his name countless of times and his achievements and I respected him and held him in high esteem despite being enemies. He was determined, protective, possessive, and also a pervert. How would Ava cope with that perverted side of his?At least one of them seemed pleased about the marriage and looking at him, he was sure to protect her from the thorns of his people. Delilah my sister won't have to be so worried about her. I had faith in Ava that she was capable of handling anyone that would undermine her. I wasn't feeling too secure about it but I had no choice."Very well then," I began and cleared my throat. "I've spoken to Dalton about the latest development and he's not very pleased with it," I said to Ava.She walked toward me. "He has no say in this matter. Besides, I never liked him anyway. He was too much of talk with an air of pride around him," she said.I knew that from the onset. It was obvious she
Ava's POV The pack was extremely excited to be in the new house and new surroundings. Married couples with children were given one quarter of the two houses on the landscape, and another quarter of the house to singles and new found loves.Uncle had left the cabins in the forest, he had said just in case we needed refuge. Besides, important pack meetings could still take place there. We were the only ones living on this landscape. It took about an hour's drive to get to civilization. Uncle still wanted us to keep a low profile.The main house was reserved for the alpha which is me, uncle Phil, and the elders, and a place in the house was also reserved for the children if they ever decide to stay in the main house.The entrance of the house was wide and spacious with a two wing step staircase leading to an inside balcony that separated the left wing from the right. The stairs were made of mahogany and the floor was covered in linoleum.On the cornice decor, was a ceiling medallion des
Skye's POVThe day had finally arrived. The day I would tie the knot with the feisty alpha female of the crescent pack. My wolf Eros was dancing in delight but I was a bit grumpy. Despite getting married to my mate, I was still skeptical about it all. I didn't know why I had such feelings this morning.I wondered what father would be thinking in his grave, his only child was getting married to the pack's enemy. One that murdered his mother. What kind of a son was he? He should be against this marriage but instead, he was instigating it. And Natasha? I frowned at the thoughts in my mind. I've been completely occupied with the thoughts of Ava that I forgot about Natasha. What would be her take on this?Robin walked into my room. "Skye?" he called to me.I stepped away from the window and turned to him."Any updates?" I asked."Nothing of much importance," he said."Then speak of what brings you here otherwise leave me to my thoughts," I replied, sitting downcast on the bed."Not happy any
Skye's POVTo say the White's house was lacking taste would have been a lie, it was far from that. It was impeccable with a flag of the white wolf hung high at the entrance. The crescent guards at the entrance snarled at me and a few members of my pack that came with me. I smirked as my pack snarled back."You'll get used to it," I said to them as I walked into the house.The hallway was filled with crescents. Of course, it had to, this was their home. They snarled discreetly as they sighted us and all I had on my face was a smug smirk while my pack joined in the competition. I signaled to Robin to make them stop as I approached Ava's uncle, Phil."It seems your pack doesn't look too pleased to have me here," I said, smiling at him. "I'll say the same thing for your pack," he responded, gesturing to them and I looked over at my pack who were still not cutting a slack for the crescent wolves.I turned back to Phil. "Bonding already." I grinned.He looked away. "I'll get Ava," he said w
Phil's POV It was happening already. Her eye color changing proved the moon goddess has blessed her with powers. Blessed her leadership and her marriage. I should have known she was destined for this. There was no way I and my late sister, Delilah could have stopped it. They both walked down the stairs and I walked up to her. Her eyes were yet to return to normal."Ava," I called her name and she hugged me tightly. I held her close. I still couldn't believe she has grown up so fast and won't be seeing her for a while.She pulled away. "My eyes, uncle," she said, sounding worried."Do not worry, you've been blessed, Ava," I replied, reassuringly. Elder John came along examining her eyes. "In all my years of living, I've never seen anything like this. The prophecy didn't lie about the special abilities," he said.Mary nodded. "The ancestors have blessed you for this cause you've taken upon yourself. Once the red sky is blue again, your eyes will return to normal," she said. Mary was t
Ava's POV Skye was lying on the bed and he was pale and white with his eyes closed. I held his hand sobbing and his hand was cold. I couldn't believe that he had left me in this cold world alone with no final words. "You cannot do this to me, Skye. You have to wake up. Wake up!" I practically yelled at him but he would not. Tears dropped from Camila's eyes as she consoled me. I pushed her away from me. I did not need her comfort. All I wanted was my husband. Mariya walked in with Anna. "The demon king has been burnt along with his ring and his ashes scattered away." She said. I did not care. That man who was my father has brought me nothing but pain and sorrow and now, he has succeeded in taking the love of my life away. I placed my head on his chest crying. "Please, wake up. Please, wake up." I pleaded but he did not listen. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Everyone tried to comfort me, but I would not take it. What more was there to live for? I've been separated from him for five
Ava's POV The training lasted till midnight before Skye allowed everyone to retire to their rooms for the battle ahead. The morning came more quickly than expected, but the pack warriors did not look like they lacked sleep. It must be that Skye had done this before. He addressed the pack concerning the battle with the demon king. A few warriors were assigned to guard the pack house with all their strength. We were ready, dressed, swords in our hands, ready for the battle that had taken place six years ago happening again. Just then a blast of wind sent many of the pack warriors flying off. I heard a burst of evil laughter and looked to see father appearing mid air. This was just after noon and he had taken us by surprise. "I told you I'd be back." He said smirking. Skye and I readied our swords and stood side by side. I wondered how he got his body. "Do not be surprised that I am in my body. This is all that I have planned," "I buried you," Skye said to him. "I dug my body
Ava's POV Davina laid on the bed with her eyes closed and I held her hand. Skye sat beside her, looking intently at her. Camila placed her hand on my shoulder giving me support. Slowly Davina opened her eyes. "Mum?" She called, trying to sit up and Skye helped her up. "Davina," I said, tears choking my throat as I pulled her closer to me. "Are you alright?" I asked her as I pulled her studying her. "Yes, mum," she said, looking around. "Why's everyone staring at me?" She asked, hiding her face in Skye's chest. "How're you feeling, Davina?" Skye asked. "I feel weak, dad." She replied. "She's alright now. She's no longer in the possession of the demon king. She's free." Mariya said and I heaved a sigh of relief. Anna's POV Davina was allowed to rest again and I walked down the stairs to find the sorcerer, Mariya sitting with a glass of water. "Come, child," she said taking notice of my presence. I was reluctant. "Come, child, don't be scared." She said and I moved to where s
Skye's POV I could hardly believe it. Ava was right and it turned out to be the demon king? How much of our lives would he keep ruining? Davina stared at her like she was crazy. "What's going on here? Mother?" She asked, coming close to Ava who looked ready to fall apart at any second. "Stop right there, you evil demon." Mariya, the sorcerer said. Davina paused and stared at her. "What are you saying?" She asked, looking scared. How could such an innocent looking child be possessed by Clark? "Father?" She looked at me. She was ready to cry. I turned to Mariya. "I don't think you're right. Davina is too little to be possessed by Clark," I walked towards the child to comfort her. "Stop right there, alpha," she said, stopping me in my tracks. "Do not move an inch closer to that child before you're stained by the demon in her." She said forcefully. She moved closer to Davina and began to chant. Davina stumbled back in fear and tried to run. "Stop right there, Clark Forest!" She
Ava's POV "Mum," She called out sweetly to me. "I was just telling Dahviel to come downstairs and have fun with us," she said. She could look into my eyes and blatantly lie after everything I saw. I decided not to react. I did not want to raise suspicion on her side. I needed to find out what was wrong with her. "That's great, dear, but your brother needs rest, Davina. Why don't you go to the party downstairs and have lots of pastries, hm?" I said to her. She jumped in excitement like the little child she was and skipped out of the room. Tears rolled down dahviel's cheeks silently. I held him to my chest as I pulled myself together. What kind of trauma was she trying to make her brother go through? Skye walked into the bedroom. "I figured out you'd be here. I've been looking for you. Why did you abandon me downstairs?" He asked all at once, coming in front of me. "Skye, there's a problem," I said to him. "Problem?" He looked puzzled. "What problem?" He asked. "I think
Ava's POV I paced the room in perplexity wondering what was going on with Dahviel. He wasn't like this and he sure doesn't tell lies about his sister. Skye and I had returned back to our bedroom after making sure Dahviel was asleep. Skye watched me pace around without a word and then finally unable to take it anymore, he broke the silence. "What is it, Ava? Are you still worried about what Dahviel said?" He asked me. I nodded. "Dahviel cannot just come up with a story that his sister was holding a knife," I said to him. "Does that really say anything?" He asked. I stopped pacing. "Of course it does, Skye. Did you not see how terrified he was?" He stared at the wall. "What point are you trying to make then?" He asked. "Either something is wrong with Davina or Dahviel himself," I said. He stood to his feet. "Natasha did send thugs to abduct them, remember? Dahviel might be suffering from the impact of the incident," he theorized. I sighed. "You think so?" I asked him. He held
Ava's POV It was just as delightful as before and memorable too. I will never be able to be in another man's arms except his. I watched him sleep with his hair tousled on his face. It felt just like it was yesterday I married him. I ran my fingers along his firm jawlines. He was beautiful. An embodiment of grace and handsomeness. His piercing hazelnut eyes was worth to die for. His straight nose drawn closely to small soft lips, tempting me to steal just one more kiss before I leave to attend to the children. Unable to resist the urge, I carried out the thought in my mind. I feathered a kiss on his lips. I lifted my head to see a smile tugging at the corners of his lips. His eyes slowly opened. "What a great way to start a day," he said and I chuckled. "Good morning, my love," I chuckled, my fingers trailing his chest. "Another pleasant way to start a day," he grinned as he lowered my head to his, entangling my lips in an intense and passionate kiss. Then, he teased my lips.
Skye's POV Everyone was all settled in the pack house and the pack were planning a party for the return of the queen. Ava. I had ceaselessly wondered what if I didn't regain my memory? Was that how I would have lost Ava for good and never get to see my children? I thank the moon goddess for making Robin care for them while I was unfit. This time around,I'll never let them out of my sight. I'll do everything I can to protect them. The very image of my thought walked into the room. "Skye, Davina and Dahviel will be going to see my uncle today," Ava said to me. I stood up from the bed. "That's alright," I replied, walking closer to her and bridging the gap between us. "That will give us enough time to spend together," I added, grinning mischievously as I cupped her breast. "Skye!" She exclaimed. "You pervert!" She said, slapping my chest playfully. "But, I've missed you so much. If I did not lose my memory, I won't have stayed without you all those long years," I replied wi
Ava's POV Robin had arranged some warriors from the blood moon pack to help in my cause. Everything had been planned and by noon, we stormed the crescent woods taking Fernandez and his minions unawares. He had an awful expression on his face when he saw me. "We meet again old friend," he said finally with an hardened smile. "We meet again, Fernandez,"I replied as we circled each other. Skye stood beside me sword drawn as the rest of the blood moon pack surrounded his minions. "You've come back after five years," he said, jeering. "To make you fall by the edge of my sword," I replied, unfaltering. He chuckled and smirked. "It will be difficult," he boasted. "But, it'll happen," I said and with that, I attacked him and the rest of the pack attacked his minions and some of my pack members were fighting the blood moons. Why? My thoughts were immediately vanquished as Fernandez and I clashed swords. We fought, rolled over dirt, and swerve from the impacts of the swords
