~LILY'S POV~

I sat across from my dad, feeling both excited and nervous. He held the journal tightly with a serious and worried expression on. I always felt like he was never going to tell me about that journal but now, the feeling was different. He was finally going to tell me the truth, I sensed it.

"Father," I said, surprised by his words. "Your journal was stolen? Why would someone want it?"

He paused, taking a deep breath before explaining. "Lily, I kept that journal hidden because it has information about our family's special heritage."

"What heritage, Father?"

He prolonged each response he gave me, "We come from a long line of protectors, chosen to fight against the darkness in the realm."

I pretended to widen my eyes in shock by what he revealed. It wasn't only me this time - Our entire family had a special pu

A maid told me she had gone to visit Aunt Belinda and hadn't return since then so I had better let her know I was back.My heart raced as I arrived at Aunt Belinda's all too familiar cottage. I felt a strong apprehension that I would get something more from this visit. I noticed a bike parked by her herbal garden. It wasn't there the last time I visited with Sarah.I knocked on the door, feeling anxious inside, and it opened to reveal Aunt Belinda. Aunt Belinda's jaw dropped as she set my eyes on me, "Lily…Lily, my dear…"She grabbed me into a tight embrace and almost choked me with her love, "Aunt Belinda…you're.. choking…m…"When she let me go, her eyes were alr

    ~THEO'S POV~As Sarah and I walked through the thick forest, our steps hastened by the second. The air grew thick with mystery and danger and an ominous presence hung over the ancient trees. Shadows danced among the twisted branches, whispering secrets that sent a chill through my bones. The forest was a labyrinth of towering trees, their gnarled roots snaking through the dark undergrowth.We were aware that mysterious creatures lurked in the shadows with their eyes gleaming with untamed wildness and ready to pounce on us if we make the mistake of wanting to rest for a night. This was why we'd been awake and walking for four days straight.Each step felt like a daring venture into the unknown, still, a vibrant curiosity drove me forward.

    ~LILY'S POV~I had been in the mercy of this forest for about a day and I was already drained. The spooky quiet wrapped around me, and all my sense of security left me. Even using a motorcycle to navigate my way in these bushes were the least of my assurances that I'd make it in time to help retrieve the ring. The thick trees blocked the sunlight, making everything look gloomy. The air smelled earthy and rotten, reminding me of the secrets hidden in this old place our mothers always sung to us about. It was actually true.My senses were on high alert and fear and determination battled inside me. Every sound, like leaves rustling or an owl hooting far away, made my heart race, but I kept going. Alone…. I wished I had went with someone. I wished I was with Adrian. The thought of him always made me feel sad and hopeful at the same time.The darkness that came with the night s

    ~LILY'S POV~That night, when we made camp, I watched Sarah and Theo talk and laugh together. They had inside jokes and shared looks that made me feel a little left out. I used to be really close with Sarah, I mean she still is my best friend, but now it seemed like she found more comfort and connection with Theo. They understood each other in a way that I didn't understand. I wanted to be happy for them, but part of me felt jealous and left behind.It was very hard to scale through that night. As I laid under the stars, I couldn't stop thinking about Adrian. I missed him so much. His absence felt like a big hole in my heart. I couldn't forget the image of him hurt and weak. It made me even more anxious to find a way to save him. I had promised to and I would.But while I longed for Adrian, I also felt the space growing between Sarah and me. It felt like something was keeping us apart. I missed the times when we laughed and shared everything. I wondered if we could ever go back to tha

It's about…Audrey."Tyler furrowed his brow, feeling confused and a little bit alarmed. He wasn't still quite over what Audrey did to him. He had trusted and cared for her, only for him to discover she

    Audrey was led into the room by some vampires who rough handled her. She swore under her breath she'd kill every single of them once she had dominion in the clan.Leo's voice beckoned her to kneel before him. The room was relatively dark but she could trace out his red eyes and gaunt composure sitting on the chair beside the bed.She obliged reluctantly, the chains around her throat, ankles and wrists scarring her skin even more. She seethed between her teeth but kept silent.Leo's curious laugh filled the room, "Are you going to keep pretending that you can't break away from those things? We can't come to a final deal if you're tied up like that."Audrey wandered as to how Leo was gradually getting into her head. She had to maintain her composure and not let the pain from the chains break her resolve. He shouldn't creep in.She cried out with a faltering voice, "Why would I fake my bleakness when I know you can kill me at any given moment? Even if I break free from these chains, you'

    Already guessing what he wanted her to do, she did so. For someone inexperienced, she seemed to know what she was doing.Leo smiled dominantly as he gazed down at his "pet". As he carefully zipped down his pants and his length bulged out, Adrian swallowed hard. His thing seemed to be…glowing, glowing! Was she really putting that shit in her mouth? "Should I keep on giving you commands before you understand what to do?" He said, a little bit annoyed.She swallowed all her pride and self-respect and held it in her hands, weighing and examining it. When she finally got past that mental block, she took his tip into her mouth which made him softly moan. She used her tongue to tease around his shell and used her fingers to rub on it."Take it in." He held onto her hair and she slowly went in, his length disappearing into her mouth. Leo squeezed her hair tighter as she started to garble his thingy, in and out. She used her saliva to lubricate her movement and Leo's groan grew louder."Shit.

    ~LILY'S POV~As we had arrived at the entrance of the Wailing Woods, we finally came across the clearing filled with the giant stone statues. The statues looked ancient, their features worn by time. It was a bit spooky, as if the statues were watching us. They did look hyper realistic. There were five; 2 by the left, 2 by the right and by far the largest one just in the way of the entrance."Fuck! Look how huge they are…I gotta get a picture." Sarah plopped out her instacam from her bagpack and started taking pictures."We don't have time for that, Sarah." Theo said, impatiently."Yes, we do. " She shoved the instacam in his hands, "Take a pic of me, please.""What are you doing, Sarah? Don't go close to those things…" I said, rather too forwardly but Sarah went anyways and stood close to the first one on the left."Making memories…if you won't take a pic with me, just don't complain.""But what if…""Take another one, Theo." She ignored me and continued posing for the camera, which I

    ~ LILY'S POV~ I sat upright on the bed. I could hear my heart beating wildly, and felt beads of sweat clinging to my forehead. The dream, the same recurring dream, had invaded my sleep again. I felt a chill creeping through me as those words in the Lythian language echoed in my mind. Adrian, still half asleep beside me, sensed my restlessness and gently kissed my forehead. His voice was soft and soothing as he asked, "What's troubling you, luv?" I turned to him with widened eyes. I recounted the details of the dream. It's the second time I had that dream. I saw Cathro in the dream warning me about a certain "Darram" but she was speaking in Lythian language. Saying, "Beware, Darram comes soon and we fear you will be the last Guardian this realm will ever know." Adrian's concern was evident, but he didn't want to add to my distress. He pulled me close into his strong arms, and reassured me with the warmth of his presence. "You shouldn't think too much about it, at least not now. You

    Jaxon found himself behind a runty herb stall in the hidden market. The canopy above offered shade from the scorching sun. The cloaked man stood in front of him, carefully arranging an assortment of herbs in clay pots and glass bottles. Jaxon had come to appreciate the familiarity they both shared with nature's offerings.Jaxon took a deep breath and finally spoke, "The salves you've been giving me have been a great help to Tiana. Her scars are slowly healing, and I can't thank you enough for your help."The cloaked man nodded, his deep and wise voice always leaving Jaxon in wonder. "It's an honor to assist."Jaxon's eyes never left the cloaked man. He spoke with a sense of urgency in his voice. "Tiana's scars are fading, but her new wounds... they keep reopening. I know it's as a result of the remaining dark magic that's around her. I need something to ease her pain until I take her to the healers at the Cave"The cloaked man nodded, "I have just the thing, but be cautious. These her

    ×××××××××In the quiet of the night, Audrey was preparing herself for bed, or really, for Leo. She sat, fixing her hair while looking into the mirror. Her reflection stared back at her, and behind her, she sensed Leo watching. He lay on the bed, his eyes never leaving her.The night's silence was broken only by the gentle rustle of her clothing. As Audrey gazed at her own reflection, she couldn't help but remember the image of Leo's lifeless body. It was a haunting image that often crept into her thoughts, and tonight was no different.A shiver ran down her spine as she realized how frequently she feared his death. Audrey couldn't quite understand why his demise, or the mere thought of it, was such a constant source of dread for her. What would she do if he were to die again?Leo sensed the worry in her posture and voice, prompting him to ask, "What's the matter?"Rather than revealing her deep-seated fears, she shifted the conversation toward their recent meeting with Viktor.

Leo nodded to his henchmen, silently instructing them to move forward and prepare the car for their departure. As they scurried off, leaving the two of them alone, Leo's demeanor changed.He swiftly pulled Audrey into his embrace. Her lithe form fitted perfectly against his own. It was a gesture that had become all too familiar between them. There was always a genuine attraction and the thrill of their dangerous partnership. Their flirtatious banter began as he gazed into her eyes, wanting to start something."It's about time I commend you for your loyalty. What you did back there -""Was nothing. I was tired of being in the midst of three grown-up men bickering like kids."Leo laughed and pulled her closer, "Oh, Audrey, you've been holding out on me. You've got a sense of humor buried in there."Audrey kept a straight face but he tightened his grip around her waist.

    ×××××××××The room was covered with such a thick tension as Viktor and Leo threw eachother assertive glares as they sat opposite eachother at the roundtable. The flickering chandeliers gave enough light to the polished wooden surface below it, and their henchmen stood behind them, ready to leap into action at any given moment.Leo's calculated move broke the silence. He nonchalantly tossed the Bodessa medallion onto the table, its precious metal clinking against the wood. His piercing eyes bore into Viktor's as he opened his mouth, "I brought this," Leo always sounded ambitious and too cocky, despite who he was addressing, "in exchange for men. I need more troops to raid the werewolf pack. It'll benefit the clan, and I know you've been planning a raid on one of their lower towns too. I could help with that."Viktor, the more composed and legitimate senior of the two, regarded the medallion for a moment. He gestured for one of his men to give it to him to which the latter did.

    THE WORLD OF "FORBIDDEN MATE"Someone once asked me about the world setting of the story since they saw elements of modern and mediaeval worlds in the story.This is your answer, dear:In Story 1, the setting and world are a blend of supernatural elements and modern-day life. The narrative features caves and packs, which are key components of the werewolf culture. These caves serve as communal spaces and dens for rebel groups, where they hold meetings, make important decisions, and discuss their strategies. The packs, as you already know, represent a strong sense of community and hierarchy.Amidst the supernatural background features, modern elements are also included into the story. This includes the presence of everyday technology like phones and digicams, used for communication and recording events. Weapons such as daggers are also part of this world which reflects the need for self-defense and conflicts that arise.The characters frequently visit bars, where they socialize, and so

The air around us crackled with strange energy.When she saw my present form, she seemed to rethink facing me but she proceeded still, "So you're a Guardian? An unworthy bitch like you?"I studied her."Why did you always have the good things, hunh?You should have never been born, Lily! You're my bane and I want you cut you off once and for all!""Your hatred will only lead you to your grave, Audrey!" I was trying to get to her."No! I will send you to your grave, right here!"
