Chapter 16

Olivia's POV

My body shifted comfortably on a soft, lofty bed. I curled up with one of the softest pillows I had ever used as I battled to stay asleep. Suddenly, a searing pain tore through my head, so badly that I stayed completely still, not even daring to shout, hoping that it would pass soon enough.

A bell rang right above my head and I nearly punched through the bed covers. The headache finally calmed down, and I managed to get up, opening my eyes in what felt like a long time. My body was hurt, almost like I had been asleep for a long time.

The room began to register in my brain, and I realized that I had never seen this room before. There were sounds outside which could only mean that I was where there were plenty of people. The events of the past nights hit me with recognition, and I clutched my head again, trying to bear through the heart-wrenching pain it came with.

Augustus!

The door opened and a beautiful young woman came in. She looked like she was just aro

    Chapter 17Olivia's POV My body froze when I heard a female's voice in my room. I turned around to find the mossy stunning woman looking at me, she was seated on one of the sofas in my very exquisite bedroom. Her eyes were blue, and I could see the raw strength coursing through her veins. “Seems like we both have a man who doesn't give a damn,” she said, laughter playing on her face. “Who are you and what are you doing in my room?” I demanded, grabbing a bread knife from the dining table and clasping my robe tightly together. “I should be the one asking you who you are, don't you think?” She said, and I stood there, not knowing exactly what to introduce myself to her as. “I thought as much. Augustus does not love you, he is only using you so he doesn't lose his right to making it to the afterlife, you should know better than to be deceived like that, little girl” she said and got up, her intimidating frame towering over me, but I didn't care, and I was not scared. “I don't care

    Olivia's POV All my life, all I have ever wanted was the ability to become invisible. Today, it looked like it was definitely not a good day for that. "Olivia, quit sitting around doing nothing and go to the kitchen. The guests are arriving soon, and they certainly do not want to see your ugly face.” my mother yelled, cutting into my thoughts. I stood up and patted my butt to rid it of the dust that it had picked up as I sat in a small corner of the storage room. Today was not like any other day, it was one of the days I hated most in the year. The new moon festival has been an annual ritual in my pack. My father was the Alpha and in a different setting, I wasn't supposed to lift a finger this week. I heard my elder sister's loud hissing and turned up to face her. Annalise. I never understood why anyone would hate me, but since I was born, I have never experienced joy for a full day without my family or a pack member reminding me that I was the only Alpha's child with a we

    Augustus's POV I howled in pain again. My forever love was going through a lot of pain, but there was nothing I could do until she found me. I took in a deep breath, trying to take away as much of the pain as I could, but I knew that no matter how much breath I did take in, it would never touch her. "When will you go out there and lure her for me?” I barked at my loyal stooge, Alexander, who had been with me for each lifetime. "Master, you know the rules. I cannot interfere until after she has found you herself. You should be used to it by now.” Alexander said and scurried away from me because he knew what would come next. I growled loudly. This was my final year and for every lifetime, I have messed up our reunion. It was almost like I could never get her to love me again, no matter how hard I tried. A thousand years ago, I fell in love with a young Luna, of whom I was her first. I never considered my Lycan blood any special until my mate. Ariel was the woman of my drea

    Olivia's POV “Get up from the hay, you lazy wench!” I heard a familiar voice scream my name. Before the voice could even register, I felt a hand on my legs, and I was roughly pulled out if where I had fallen asleep. “You must think you will paint us bad.” my mother's voice finally became clear in my head and the suffocating gear that immediately permeated every bone in my body, threatened to leave me paralyzed. “Are you deaf? Do you not hear your mother speaking to you?” I heard my father's gruff voice and immediately jumped up. “Good morning Luna, Alpha.” I greeted and tried to wipe my eyes off the evidence of sleep. “Keep your dirty greetings to yourself. You knew that it is customary for us to show our guests around, yet you chose to embarrass us like this?” my mother yelled and pushed me away. I raised my eyes, I wasn't shocked to see the satisfying smile on Annalise's face. She was definitely the one that led the group here, everyone knew that guests were not brou

    Olivia's POV “Olivia Brandon!” I heard my mom yell from the pack house. “I wonder what she wants again.” Elana said, and walked into the bathroom that was nearly falling apart. I shook myself and prepared myself mentally for the worst. On my way to the pack house, I saw some servants looking at me and painting fingers at me. They didn't look too pleased to see me, but that was already something that I was used to. When I entered, I saw Annalise crying profusely. One of the young Alphas that had honored our Pack's invitation was cradling her warmly. “You called for me.” I said and bowed respectfully to my mom. “Where is Anna's necklace?” she demanded, and I was shocked. “What necklace Luna?” I asked her, clearly confused. For the second time that day, I felt my world stop. I had not even seen it coming until it was too late. My mother hit me again, much to the pleasure of Annalise and her new lover. “Your sister has just found her mate, and now she can't find her fav

    Olivia's POV I ran. As fast as my legs could carry me. If I were a strong wolf, it would have been a different thing, but the strength of my wolf was barely any different from the strength of a human. The sounds of the guards were getting closer, and I knew that if I didn't do anything soon, I would be caught and a date worse than death awaited Elana and me. My heart was scared for her and I found myself worried. “I think she went over there.” I heard one of the guards yell in the direction that I was running in. I quickened my pace and soon found a waterfall. I hid at the back and waited for a while, the water should be able to mask my scent until the guards had given up on their search or at least changed directions. “I don't think so. We should go back to the palace. It's already late, and you know how close this is to the Lycan borders. We don't want their crazy mysterious animal king to hurt us.” another one said, and I was relieved that they were changing course. Aft

We talked about this and you agreed.” I heard the unmistakable voice of the other man who had earlier introduced himself to me as Alexander.“Shhhh, she's waking up.” the man said and I opened my eyes. The blinding lights nearly blinded me, accompanied by one of the worst headaches I had ever experienced. I quickly closed my eyes and tried to adjust my sight to the light. “Turn off the light Alexander.” he said. “Who are you?” I asked the man, meeting his gaze for the first time.As soon as I set my eyes on him, it was almost like I had seen him before, flashes of a life I never knew passed through my head and I knew that whatever we had been the best romance I had ever experienced. “We have been waiting for you to come back.” the man said,

    Chapter 7Augustus's POV “Quit kicking me” I yelled at her. She was obviously going to make this hard for me. Even though I was supposed to be gentle with her, the cluelessness on her face was pushing me overboard. “But, I don't want to go anywhere with you!” She yelled at me while furiously slapping my back with her hands. Infuriating more than I have ever experienced. I dropped her roughly and pinned her to the wall, trapping her fingers in between mine and locking them right above her head. “Quit being so feisty. This isn't the first time that you are meeting me.” I snapped at her, making sure she saw the fury in my eyes. Alexander had talked about my temper even though I was struggling to work on it. Her refusal to make things any easier than the other lifetimes, coupled with the thought of this being my only chance at ever living a fulfilling afterlife, pushed me beyond my limits. “I am willing to entertain you. I saved your life. You are not going anywhere until I say so.”

I had mixed feelings about my sudden decision to return to the palace amidst the rumors going on, but I needed Olivia to be in a safe space. “Everything is ready, Your Majesty. The official ambulance that you requested to ride in with the queen is now waiting too. He arrived just a few minutes ago” Alexander reported to me. He had returned barely a few hours ago and had now set up for movement. The doctors and nurses carried Olivia on a stretcher carefully and took her to the royal ambulance. I grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge and took a deep breath, looking at the house one last time and seeing the memories that I had made her. "We have to go your majesty. Shadow hunters have increased around these parts, and we do not want to get up with them. I nodded my head and matched out, followed closely by Alexan

    Chapter 14Augustus's POV When I saw her struggling on the bed, I knew what was happening to her, and the dread of what happened next scared me. It was the same thing, every time and I regretted having not told her the whole truth before now. I grabbed her and shook her awake, but she looked at me in horror, a look I had thought every time that I had grown accustomed to but always broke my heart. She was terrified of me now. Talking to her was of no use and I felt myself losing her again. I couldn't let it happen, and I tried to get to her, but she ran away, slipped and hit her head. “I am not Ariel” she murmured as I tried to get her. Her head was bleeding badly, and she had passed out. I carried her in my arms and marched down the stairs. Alexander joined me as soon as I got out and kept asking me what I did to her, his tone irritating me with every step I took. “Why don't you shut up and do something useful?” I barked at him. He didn't say anything else after that, instead,

    Chapter 13Olivia's POV My eyes flew open, I didn't know how long I had slept but everywhere seemed oddly familiar. I knew this was not the room I had fallen asleep in. I looked around, and my eyes caught the picture of a woman hung on the wall.Her eyes were captivating and even though she looked nothing like I did, I felt like I was looking at myself from a different age. I stood up and looked around, surprised that even though I knew that this was my first time here, I could swear that this was my home. The door was thrown open, and a strange man walked in. I tried to back away, but I couldn't move, instead, I walked to the window and stood there, my back turned to the strange figure. I willed myself to turn away from the man, his clothes were exotic, but they looked as if they had been brought straight from an ancient museum. “Ariel, do not turn your back on me!” The man barked, but I didn't feel the need to answer him, instead I shook my head. “I am not Ariel, you have the wr

    Chapter 12 Olivia's POV My body convulsed in pleasure and I grabbed Augustus, my fingers digging into his back as I orgasmed on his fingers. He held me in place until I was done and the realization of what I had just done, dawned on me. My eyes were tightly shut and even though it was dark, the moon illuminated the entire forest. “Are you okay?” He asked me, his voice breaking my train of thought. “Yes…" I mumbled, trailing off. I felt so weak and tired, the new emotions that I had been introduced to slowly lulling me to sleep. I could barely move a muscle and lay there, trying to catch my breath. Even though I knew the activity had made me tired, having to ward off a hungry lion for almost an hour was no easy feat, and I was glad that Augustus came at the time, he did. Even if I was not going to let him know. Mustering all the strength that I had left, I tried to get up. It was already late, and we should have gone to bed hours ago. I fell to the floor with a low thud, a s

  • For Every Lifetime   A Fountain of Emotions

    Chapter 11Augustus's POV I took a long swig of the bottle in my hands, willing myself to feel some sort of intoxication, but it was of no use. Food and drinks had no importance in my life now because of the curse, but even if they did, I doubted that alcohol would have been able to douse the embers of lust that I felt. Even though she was not the same as my Ariel, there was something about her that would never change. She was fearless, it was one of the things that had attracted me to her at first, her eyes lit with the rage that I knew only I could evoke from her. Somehow, she had managed to curse us both, to be slaves to our love and her hate for me. “Help!” I heard the voice, clearly in my head. I got up, thinking if it was the alcohol that was finally having an effect, but, I didn't feel drunk. “Hel…help me” I heard the voice clearly and knew that it was Olivia. Alexander ran in almost at the same time, his face etched with worry and concern. “My king, I can't find the mist

He seemed to understand what I was feeling because his tongue invaded my tongue and my knees nearly buckled. Seeing myself responding to him with such shameless abandon made me feel upset with myself. I didn't like him, I hated him even, but he could evoke emotions in me more than anyone else I've met in my life. “You'll learn to obey me next time,” he said, and I was snatched out of my reverie to face the reality of him wearing a smug look on his face, looking down at me. It was then I realized that his lips were off me and I had totally fallen for his stupid games. I pretended to have hated it and wiped at my lips furiously, nearly causing it to bleed. The fire of desire in me immediately turned to the fire of rage, and I was determined to let him have a lick of everything.“You are not much of a good kisser.

I don't know how else you want me to stand straight” I snapped at him, too exhausted to do anything else and also frustrated that nothing I was learning today was entering my head. My life had slowly taken a turn from what it used to be into something more interesting, I was beginning to enjoy the stability of knowing what I would do for the day. “If you don't stand right, you can easily be taken out by a target, why are you so stubborn?” He asked me, his frustration showing on his face too. “Fine,” I said, my voice slightly elevated and faced the target, without even waiting to be ready, I released the bow and the arrow lunged forward. The arrow missed the target totally and landed on the floor. I turned around to meet the furious face of Augustus. His eyes were hard, and he looked at
