DERRICK’s POV.With a little groan, I aggressively slip my shaft out of Zoey’s wet honey pot and stand up from the bed, a smirk is lingering on my lips and I love the way her whole body is vibrating even when I am no longer buried deep inside of her again.This has become my daily routine now, after Imogen left. The thought of it makes me mad for a few seconds but when I realise I have one of her blade member’s body hanging on a stake just outside the courtyard, my body relaxes and my anger dilapidates. How dare those two Alpha level wolves think they can beat me? I can’t help but scoff at the thought of that, they made me laugh so hard.“You look happy” Zoey's tiny and annoying voice reaches my ears and I turn my head towards her, a furrow on my brows.“Why shouldn't I be?”“Of course not, master” she immediately responds, “I mean you have been so angry since Imogen left and it is weird to see you smiling so brightly”She climbs out of the bed and I hear her cuss silently in pain, h
IMOGEN’s POV.After leaving Anna, I went back into my chambers and I was a bit surprised to see Master sitting on my bed and he had my diary in hand. I thought I hid it well, how was he able to get it?“Master” I gently bow to him, “I didn’t know you were here” I say again and he flashes me a smile without saying anything.“Are you okay?” I ask him again, he looks a bit worried and it is evident on his face, the way he is just staring at me.“Imogen” he calls my name after a while, “sit” Master pats the place beside him and I perch on the space with my whole attention still on him. “Why do you look so worried, Master?” I can’t help but ask him again, “is everything okay?”“Derrick will attack on the day of our mark and mate ceremony” he responds, “he is getting his army ready”For a while, I was speechless. I know exactly what Master is talking about now, Derrick wants to attack on the most important day of our lives. I am not sure how I should feel but I am so angry and upset.“Did
ATHAN’s POV..“You look spectacular, master” silver says with a huge grin on his lips, “I didn’t know you would still push with the ceremony even if you are not one from among us”“Hmmmm” I turn my focus on him, “of course I am from among you” I tell him, “I am from that descendancy” I further tell him.“Of course” the grin on his face begins to fade, “i just hope everything goes well, master”I can feel his pain, I can feel his concern and everything in between. I can see it all. The fear and the anger.“You don’t worry, silver” I press my hand against his shoulders, “everything will go perfectly as long as you do what I ask you”“Yes master” he bows again, “I will go and check the arrangements outside” with that, he walks out of the room leaving me all to myself.Finally it is here, my mark and mate ceremony. The day me and Imogen will strengthen our bond, the day me and Imogen will show the world that we are officially together. I can decide not to do a mark and mate ceremony and
IMOGEN’s POV.With one last glance at the mirror, we both make our way out of the room towards the area for the ceremony.The mark and mate ceremony is one that allows the male and the female to create an eternal bond with each other.With each passing moment, I feel the tension build up inside of me. I know what I am about to do will cause a lot of problems but I have to do it for the good of the rest of them.“Are you fine?” Master’s concerned voice reaches my ears and I give him a fake smile.“Of course” I reply, “I am just a bit nervous that’s all”Master flashes me a genuine smile, “don’t worry, I am here and I won’t let anything happen to you okay?”After walking for a while, we both enter the large hall and everyone stands up to welcome us. The hall is decorated beautifully and the two thrones in the middle of the room look so superb. I didn’t know the master had made such arrangements, everything looks so superb and beautiful. I can’t bear but tear up, how I have dreamed of th
EPILOGUE.ATHAN’s POV.The moment I open my eyes, I see Eed lying down beside me with a huge grin on my face, a gesture which immediately irritates me and I shove her off.“How dare you?” I growl in anger, “what the hell do you think you are doing?”“It is all over, Athan” she tells me and the grin on her face widens, “everything is over now”“What…” I angrily push her against the wall and grab her neck, “I think it is high time I teach you a lesson for all the things you have caused” I dig my claws deeper into her skin and blood spills out of it making her groan in pain.“Imogen….” the moment I hear her name, I suddenly let go of her neck as reality dawns on me.“What did you do to her?”“It is all over, Athan” she tells me again.Not bothering to wait for what she has to say again, I vanish from the room and immediately appear at Aqua blade, a sight that greets me sorry.Everywhere is in flames and a lot of bodies are on the ground. A few others are trying to put out the fire and fo
IMOGEN’s POV.Twelve years ago my parents were killed by the rogue Darkmoon pack during a clash war and six years old me was left alone to walk in the ruins of that life. It was at this moment when Master found me crying and weeping at my parent’s grave and he decided to take me under his wing.He kneels beside me and gently holds onto my hand, “Will you like to come with me?”“can I?” I ask amidst tears, “now I don’t have anywhere to go, everyone has left me and I am all alone”His lips curls into a gentle smile as he ruffles my hair, “Of course little one, you can come with me but you don’t have to cry anymore. You are not allowed to shed a single tear in the place where we are going, do you understand?”With tears still streaming down my eyes, I nodded and he held out his hand. “Let us go” Master brings me with him to Aqua blades, a small enclave of the Crescent Valley that also houses the Darkshadow pack which is one of the most powerful and ruthless wolf pack but even a
ATHAN’s POVAfter I am done with Imogen , I make my way out of the dungeon still angry. Imogen is one of my most trusted weapons and seeing her behave in such a way makes me want to kill her. Announcing I am her mate and even running away when I rejected her? She must think I am an easy going person just because we have never had that kind of encounter before. Well, she is in for a big shock. Imogen is a good weapon and losing her will definitely affect the blade but it is better than letting her get away with what she did, I am not that benevolent.My thoughts are interrupted when I feel someone run up to me and when I turn, I see silver. Silver is my best trained assassin and the number one upper rank blade. I have trained him to be ruthless and follow the guidelines I have set for Aqua blade religiously.“Master” he calls out to me and I nod while still walking away.“Tell me silver, why are you here?” I ask, “Aren’t you supposed to be training some of the new recruits?” I added
IMOGEN’s POVI manage to force my eyes open as my body begins to feel the amount of cold water that is being poured on me, I can feel the aches all over my body and it feels like life is being sucked out of me anytime I take a breath.This is like five days being in this dungeon and it is so tormenting and excruciating for me. I will prefer to hear the screams of the people I have killed over the years than stay in this dungeon where I am losing my mind everyday.“Stand up, you whore” one of the guards who master Athan nicknamed Eagle snicker as the other pushed a meal towards me with his eyes glaring daggers at me like he wanted me dead at that particular moment.They are both the lowest ranking guards of Aqua blades and that is why master put them in charge of the dungeon “I don’t even know why the master still agrees we should give her food when she will be executed soon” the other one went on venting, “the audacity of you to even announce that master Athan is your mate” As I
