Hi, lovely Readers! Do you think this is what Dustin wanted for Amelia when he invited her for dinner? :)
DUSTIN “ Giving her the room right above the sea was not a good idea. ” She hummed, sitting on top of my desk while I stood beside the window, ignoring her presence altogether. I looked down at the crashing water before shaking my head. I was thinking too much and this was what she wanted from me. “ It’s not like she will try to kill herself over something so trivial. ” I stated. “ Tyson Murdoch was a big meanie to her. She might attempt something. ” She sighed dramatically. I glanced at her from over my shoulder. She was just a bright shadow, with no face, no defined body. The only thing I could make out in the blinding light that was her figure was her silver hair. Long and floating behind what was supposed to be her back. “ Why are you attached to my side? Can’t you bother someone else? I am not the best candidate for your schemes anyway. ” I shook my head. “ You are one ungrateful Lycan. I, as the Moon Goddess, have a lot of things to do but I still come to you every day. T
AMELIA Tyson was with Princess Avery again. But they were not alone this time. The sitting area was occupied by the King of the West and his Queen who sat beside him. Dustin was also there, sitting on one of the single seats and rotating a tumbler filled with alcohol in his hand. Princess Avery and Tyson sat on another couch. The latter was holding a small boy in his lap. Judging from the features of the boy, I could tell he was Prince Ryder- - -Lenora and Striker’s Lycan son. Tyson was smiling at him, as the Prince said something to him. The gesture was genuine and it reminded me of those real smiles he used to give me when we were friends. I sighed, wrapping my arms around my cold frame. I was standing in the garden and I could see them through the glass wall of the sitting area. They were all inside, laughing and talking about Goddess knew what. They hadn’t taken notice of my presence here. That’s how insignificant I was. They were in their own world and I was just a girl l
AMELIA“ I don’t want to be around you! ” I hissed, fighting harder than before.In a few blurred moments, we were already inside my bedroom. It was enough to make my mind imagine the worst scenarios.“ Let me go. ” I grumbled.Tyson dropped me on my feet in the middle of the room. I sucked in a huge breath and turned around to face him.“ What do you think you are doing? ” My eyes squinted at him.“ What you wanted. ” Tyson threw me a tight-lipped smile which was as fake as his composed demeanor.I could feel the anger rolling off him in waves no matter how hard he tried to cover it up with fake smiles and relaxed features.“ Oh, so you think you know what I want now? ” I huffed a laugh.He was unbelievable. But he looked scary. I blinked, as my gaze moved down his body and paused at the bulge in his black pants.“ You want me to fuck you. Isn’t that why you are getting on my nerves, Amelia Kingsley? ” Tyson clicked his tongue as his hands reached to the zipper on his pants.“ No. N
TYSON The red in my vision had thickened and darkened, like blood. That was all I could see as I gritted my teeth and watched the running water disappear into the drain. Tonight, I lost my grip on the self-control I had been practicing half my life and gave in to the carnal desire to have her. I would fuck her, and be done with this sick trickle under my skin. Then I would forget about Amelia Kingsley like she never existed in the first place. It would hurt her fragile pride, wouldn’t it? That was a great plan. But it slapped me back in the face. This was the second time in my life that I had felt the urge to wring Amelia’s pretty neck and end her, right then and there so, this chapter in my life was over. How could she fucking lie about this? Didn’t she care how it would hurt her? I shouldn’t even be thinking about her when all I saw was red and all I smelled was her sweet blood which called to me like my favorite dessert…but I was doing it. She had managed to force me into
TYSON “ I don’t need to spend too much time with you to know you, Tyson. It is enough for me to know that you had every chance and every right to hurt me but you chose not to. You chose to be kind instead. It was not easy, was it? You knew my mother and I were the reason behind your mother’s misery yet you never told me that. You never hurt me for it. ” She spoke fiercely. That’s right. My Dad cheated on Mom with her mother and she was the result of their infidelity. But it was not her fault that he did that. It was not her fault that she was born to them. I found it below me to punish someone for another’s crimes. Besides, she had suffered enough by spending half her life alone after her mother was murdered. I didn’t want to add to her suffering. I wanted to remain neutral with her so I didn’t end up hurting my Mom’s feelings either. I decided to be not too good, and not too bad. But she came for me in the past when I needed someone…like an uninvited, and much-welcomed guest. She
AMELIA“ Please don’t go, Tyson. ” I was begging. It sounded like that to me, but I didn’t care. I really wanted him to stay.He took another step forward, making me close my mouth. He won’t stay. It was clear.Silently, I turned my back to him and winced. It still hurt a little. Females took more time to heal than males which contributed to this pain right now.The bed dipped behind me. His warmth seeped into my back as he lay down at some distance.He was staying. My stomach fluttered, as a grin threatened to break on my lips. But it was really not the time. He might decide to change his mind if I showed my excitement. I should remind myself that I thought he would never see me again after tonight, but Tyson proved me wrong and came to me. It was enough. Sparks ran up and down my spine, soothing the pain to some degree. I closed my eyes and heaved a huge breath.“ Why did you lie? ” Tyson’s gruff voice filled the silence.“ I—I didn’t want to lie. I was just angry. ” I whispered.
AMELIA “ Where is Adelia? ” I whispered. I was confused. Was this vision reality or was I hallucinating things I wanted to believe in? Tyson’s face hovered over mine, his eyes narrowed on me. “ just when I decide I should let you grab my finger, you are back to square one. ” “ I am not trying to tell you stories like you think. I just want to know…Do you know where Adelia is? Did Evan tell you anything about her? ” I gripped his shoulder instinctively. His brows lifted. He searched my eyes for a few moments, looking for Goddess knew what. “ I am sure you were not eavesdropping. ” Tyson hummed. “ I saw it just now. ” I revealed. “ I saw you sitting in your room. A male voice was talking to you about getting addicted to someone’s blood. Then, I saw you in the throne room…with Evan. He was telling you that Adelia is in Midnight Pack. ” A frown etched between his brows. “ You saw my memories? ” I was dumbfounded. “ I was not imagining all that? ” Tyson exhaled a breath befor
AMELIA When I woke up, Tyson was gone. I didn’t expect him to stay for long so it was fine. My mind was completely consumed by my sister’s thoughts for a few days after that. This helped me avoid my jealousy whenever Princess Avery and Tyson were together because even after he told me all those confusing things and said she was only a friend…they hung out a lot. And when he was around her, he was normal—happy, calm, and bright. So, I did my best to stay inside and not come across them. I didn’t want to create any problems. Alpha King Dustin didn’t stick his nose in my matters again and Princess Lenora left with her family a day later so I was left all alone in my room, waiting for the day Tyson and I would return. After five days of stay, we finally came back. During my stay in the North, Princess Avery didn’t once try to bother me like I thought she would. The time spent there was smooth and peaceful after that one night with Tyson. And as expected, now the King of the East w
Hi Lovelies! I hope you are all well and doing great things in life. So, this book ended a few days ago and there are indeed many things left unfinished but in the next books, we will see snippets of these characters again and you will be able to know what's happening in their chaotic lives.

In the end, I would like to tell you a little about the new book. As you all know by now, it's about Aleister and Avery.

AMELIA ...One and a Half Month Later… Nora told me she would wait for any word from Avery. I was with her on this. Once she looked for Nora, we would do everything to stop Dustin from sending her to the South. He couldn’t force his sister. She was not a pushover and she was not alone. But, our wait remained just that. Avery never called for help. She didn’t look for Tyson or Striker or any of us. After a week, she silently disappeared. We would have never expected her to just go like this, without a word, or without putting up a fight, or without any farewell One day I woke up and Tyson simply told me he got the news from North. Avery was already in the South. That didn’t make sense to me or Nora who was still there with me. Now another month passed after Avery’s sudden disappearance. We waited for a message from her, but the gates of the South were closed, and the magic shield was back. No one could go inside and no one came out. In the first few days, Tyson and Striker threw
AMELIA Things worked out. I didn’t expect them to, but they did. That was the only thought in my mind as I lay in Tyson’s arms, wrapped up in a blanket after several intense rounds of sex. His fingers traced imaginary shapes on my lower back and I enjoyed the feel of his skin over mine, lazy and gentle. At that moment, I decided I should tell him what I didn’t before, “ I was not the only one there. ” “ Hmm? ” He turned to me and pulled me closer to his body. I sighed, inhaling my lingering scent on his neck. I had made peace with the fact that I might never get to inhale his true scent. “ Levian. ” I whispered and sensed his shoulder tensing under my cheek, “ He was there last night. He saved me and Ryder. I don’t know why but he…helped us. If it was not for him, maybe, I wouldn’t have made it. Aleister was sending weird shadow monsters and our people to kill me, Tyson. And when these creatures noticed Ryder…they wanted to hurt him to get to me. ” His hand paused. I waited for
TYSON She must be awake. I concluded and decided to go to her. However, her scent drew close and filled my senses, freezing me on my spot. Was she going to be mad because I made a wrong decision and left her to fight on her own? “ Tyson. ” Her sweet voice fell on my ears, drawing my attention to the door behind me. She stood in the doorway, dressed in a plain light green dress that fell to her ankles. There was no sign of sickness on her face, but a wide smile as she walked to me on hurried steps. “ Lia. ” My heart missed a beat. She stopped in front of me and without caring about the other three people in the room, cupped my cheek in her warm palm. “ Did we manage to get rid of the threat? ” We. My shoulders loosened. We were still ‘we’. I gripped her hand and sat her down to my side. Immediately, she pressed herself to me as if she couldn’t bear to be away. Her injuries had healed, leaving her pale skin smooth and soft. “ You played a big role in this, Amelia. ” Striker st
TYSONI should have expected something to be wrong. Nothing ever went smoothly for me. Lia was unconscious when I arrived at the Eastcairn Citadel. Surprisingly, I only felt her pain when I was inside the walls. From the looks of it, she was not in a severe condition. She just exerted all her energy and fell unconscious. By the time I went to her, Nora and the servants had already transferred her body to her room. Even a healer was done checking up on her and told Nora that she was fine. Now, she slept in her room peacefully. The guests were sent home safely and the castle was cleaned. In a short while, everything looked as new as ever. But, it didn’t put my mind at ease. My wolf was restless, and after a long time, I could feel it. We had marked each other but hadn’t mated and he wouldn’t settle until the deed was done.“ She had Ryder in her arms when I came. Even in that state, no one could take him away from her. She protected him until I came back. ” Nora sighed, recalling t
TYSON “ Where do you think Dustin disappeared to? ” I shook my head and leaned back. Dark Fog extinguished the eternal fire and left me in the dark again. I couldn’t bother to look at Striker, but I knew he was seeing the same thing as me. “ He must be hiding in the corner somewhere. ” Striker snickered, trying to lighten the chilly atmosphere. The bodies that came at us this time were aggressive and fought back. I had a hard time knocking them when I found multiple dead bodies lunging at me, jumping at my back, reaching for my throat, my eyes, my nose and everywhere they could reach. I was swarmed with the bones that clung to me and pushed me to my knees with their weight. That was an odd experience, getting buried under the dead people. I sucked in a few labored breaths. The putrid smell of death filled me, making me dizzy and suffocated. My hands landed on the ground. I could feel the grass clinging to my skin as if it were drawn to me. Gritting my teeth, I let the pent-up
TYSONI felt uneasy. It was not because of Aleister but because my guts told me I shouldn’t have left Amelia alone.But, I couldn’t go to her now. We were already so far. The King of the South had half my Kingdom under his control, and Striker's fire was the only thing that could cut through the veil of Darkness that seemed to be the root of mind control. Nora, Dustin, and I followed him as he let his fire burn through the ground. The quarreling, compelled people started to break out of their daze and came to their senses as soon as they saw the light.We were far from the castle now, and all I heard was silence behind the walls. It was almost like there was a barrier around Eastcairn Citadel that didn’t let any noise leave the place.“ I shouldn’t have listened to you, Dustin. ” I scoffed as we came to a halt in the open field.“ He knows something we don’t. Again. That’s why he insists on walking this way. ” Nora scoffed.She was equally uneasy because she had to leave a sleeping R
AMELIAMy lungs ached as the hands tightened around my throat. I tried to breathe but all I could manage was a broken gasp.Why? The question echoed in my head. Why did I have to die? Why was he trying to kill me?‘ Your existence is meaningless. You are not needed. ’ He answered as if he could hear everything in my head.I am needed—I wanted to shout.My eyes bulged as I failed to breathe. I tried to claw my way out but my arms were pinned. My necklace was torn from my neck. My earrings went next. They tore my dress and ripped my hair. I was too desperate for oxygen to feel pain. Silently, I wondered if Tyson could feel what I was feeling. I wished he couldn’t. I didn’t want him to be hurt because of me. ‘ See for yourself how insignificant you are. ’ His voice whispered in my head.And I saw what he wanted to show me. I saw Mom, and Dad, and Adelia. They were happy without me—Happy and Alive. I saw Avery and Tyson and the rest of their friends, their family—They were complete wit
AMELIAMy neck burned and energy swarmed through my limbs. Ignoring the drilling pain inside my head, I pushed myself to my feet.Tyson rose with me, his hands gripping my arms protectively.“ Lia… ”“ Go… ”“ Have…”Tyson’s lips were moving. He was saying something to me but the occasional ringing in my ears didn’t let me catch onto whatever he was trying to tell me.His eyes were narrowed, his hold tight over my arms.It was like my head was underwater, or something was trying to keep my head under. The pain grew, and so did the burning in my neck. The little energy I had was shared through the mate mark, and it made it harder for the King of the South to get inside my head.I shook my head, trying to break free but it only made me realize how hard it was to move my neck. I was stiff like a board. My mind was not the only thing on the verge of succumbing to the power striking my skull.Suddenly, a huge line of fire swished beside me, cutting through the dark fog. I gasped, and the t
