**Secret P. O. V** Rage bubbled within me like a cauldron, and I clenched my hands into tight fists. I had never imagined that we would lose a battle to those murderers! It had never happened before and I had thought winning the war would be an easy peasy. The door to my room pulled open and in walked my sisters. They both looked like hell and thanks to what? The bloody battle we lost! My elder sister who had never been much in support of taking lives was now our leader. She still couldn't believe that our beloved brother was killed without committing any crime! Especially being killed by who? Werewolves! To be honest, I had long thought they never existed. There had been no news on them ever since our last war with them. Werewolves are sly creatures, frauds, liars and that was why we vanished them from the world so I thought they had gone extinct. “Looks like someone is angry.” My eldest sister uttered in a dry humorous tone. The life that used to shine in her eyes has dimmed
PRECIOUS One Hour Later I had only gotten into my room when my phone rang. I walked to my bedside table and looked at the caller. Avilla. My heart pounded wildly as I picked it up. “Hi, Avilla. What's up?” I asked as I started pacing around. Avilla cleared her phone. “Hi, it's about the book.. yeah, the one you requested for. I just found it about thirty minutes ago, and called twice to inform you but you didn't answer it.” I exhaled, emotions bubbling inside me. Things are going to be better, soon everything will die down and we all could continue our lives like how it used to be. “I'm sorry, I didn't hear it ring. As a matter of fact, I just came back from training when you called just now.” I explained, going to sit on the bed. “It's alright. I was just wondering where you were, that's all.” “Thanks. So, when will I be getting it?” I asked excitedly. There was a little pause before she responded. “Maybe tomorrow or next. I'm sorry, I understand you may need it urg
NATE I couldn't stop smiling just looking at our mate. She was everything I had ever wanted and everything I never deserved. She was so beautiful, gracious, amazing and to top it up, kind hearted. I didn't know what good I did in my past life to deserve her. Watching her two days ago, nearly killed during the battle, had felt like someone had stopped time. She could have died and that would have been the end of it, but luckily Duke was there to save her. If someone had told me she would play with her life, I wouldn't have believed. She was so lively, someone whom I had come to know appreciates life a lot, and who deserves it more than others. I know I sounded selfish right now, but that was because my mate has suffered a lot. The miscarriage she had had nearly broken her. We had watched her cry and mourn the death of our child, and were both surprised when she didn't let it affect our relationship. We failed her in protecting our pub. We fucking failed her yet she never thought of
PRECIOUS “Why the sudden interest in powers, Precious?” Meg asked curiously. I sighed, mulling over how to tell them. I still didn't trust them, but I knew it wasn't fair to keep this from them either. They had been truthful about themselves and it wouldn't harm anyone if I told them about it, right? So I explained everything to them, and they listened with rapt attention. When I was done, they both watched me in awe. “Girl, you are powerful. I still can't believe it.” Meg blinked, her mouth hung open. “I know right. Who could have known!” Avilla exclaimed with rounded eyes. I shrugged, “I was as surprised as you both right now.” “So show us what you could do.” Meg said with a smile. I rolled my eyes. “Come on, unless you want us to use wolfsbane on you so that I can heal you. If that's the case, then it's fine.” “That's a very great idea.” Avilla teased, picking up the book and watching it with a spark of interest. “We should probably use you.” Meg scoffed. I held
RICHMOND For a moment, no one said a word. It wasn't until Damon moved beside me that I managed to gather the right words. “Are you f**king serious?” He nodded and walked in, leaving the door wide open. “Yes, he's currently withheld by the guards so that he won't escape again.” “Good, we need to go and torture him for what he did. I still can't believe we were living with a traitor all these while.” Damon said in disbelief, walking towards Miracle in long strides. “Yes, I need to see the motherfucker who caused all these, and know his reason for killing them.” Father chimed in, casting a glance in my mate's direction. My chest tightened, noticing the look on her face. All the blood was drained from her and her hands tightened into fists. I didn't like seeing her this, sad and looking so murderous, I wanted her to be happy all the time. “Yes, let's go and deal with the idiot,” I uttered through gritted teeth. We ended up in the basement—except for Meg and Avilla who excused th
PRECIOUS Three hours later… I was resting from training for so long when I got a call from Ruby that she was on her with her mate. I quickly showered and changed into a comfortable outfit before making my way out of my room and into the sitting room to wait for her. The whole house was empty. My mates and Alpha Rodriguez were still training the warriors, preparing them for the upcoming war. I still couldn't come to terms with the fact that the Lycan King was responsible for the massacre of my family and pack members. He had been the source of my past nightmares and heartbreak, and the thought that I had almost brought his dead son back to life angered me. The death of his son was a blessing in disguise; otherwise, who could tell what they would have in store for us? Now, it was time for them to face the music. I was more than anxious for the war to begin, even though I knew some lives would be lost that day, I knew this was necessary else, our clan would forever run away from t
PRECIOUS It had been four days since Ben was caught, and it had also been four days since my little angel appeared in my dream. Unlike other times, I had immediately revealed to my family what I dreamt about. My little angel had given us a go ahead order to battle with the Lycans because we were going to win. I was told that only I held the power to win this battle, and she told me what to do in order for us to win. So right now, we were already prepared for the upcoming war. We were no longer tense like we used to be, but we were anxious to get this over with and continue living our lives. But something seemed strange these past few days. The boys had been acting unusually, including Ruby, who had been coming around every day without Xander. Often, I’d catch her whispering to either Duke or Nate, and when she saw me watching her, an expression I couldn’t decipher would wash over her face. I had tried finding out what the problem was, but of course, nobody had been willing to let
PRECIOUS “Your King is dead!” I bellowed, my voice raw with fury. The Princesses and all the other Lycans suddenly ceased fighting, turning to face me with wide eyes. Taking slow slides towards them, I dangled the head in my hands, with a toothy grin plastered on my face. “You bastard! How dare you!” One of the princesses surged forward, screaming at the top of her lungs, and sent a kick in my direction, but I was quick to evade her. I spun around, bending low with the head still gripped in my hands, and watched as she fought to regain her stance. The others came for me, but Richmond and Duke fought them off. When the fallen princess was up on her feet, she lurched again, and this time, I didn't let her go. I raised my right leg, driving it into her midsection with all my strength. She staggered back, gasping for breath, but I wasn't done yet. With a swift, fluid motion, I swung the Lycan King's head at her, the gruesome trophy serving as both a weapon and a symbol of our defian
