Heart of blood and roses Blood moon
Luca tried to kiss me.I was still trying to think about it or more like I was trying to think about the reason. It was wrong...no matter what the reason was, his action was not right but it was just a moment of weakness. He was vulnerable and I was just there. I let out a breath while walking outside the mansion. I had to get out of that place, I needed time and place to think about what happened. My eyes changed their color, did it really happen or the lack of sleep was finally messing with my head?The red moon was approaching fast and I had no clue about it...I was sure about one thing, something terrible would happen in a few days. My nightmares were not ordinary, I might not be a werewolf but I was still connected with this pack through my soulmate. It could be a warning, a warning I would not ignore.So many questions were running inside my head and I had no answers. I could ask Eleanor about the red moon but she was as clueless as me considering she did not know about the

My mind was focused on that one particular spot in the library. My fingers were itching to grab the book and flip the pages that had my answers. Everything I needed was so close to me and yet I was sitting in the room waiting for everyone to leave. Alpha Orion was still in the mansion which meant I was not going to leave the room under any circumstances. I did not want to talk to him, I already had too many things to worry about and dealing with one grumpy Alpha was not in my daily schedule. I was also avoiding Luca. After the last time, things became a little awkward between us. I saw Luca during breakfast but we barely spoke. The silence was not extraordinary during breakfast or dinner in this mansion. The silence was my constant companion most of the time. But no one noticed the silence was not normal but uncomfortable between us or maybe no one cared. It was already 1 pm and Alpha was locked in his office. Normally he would not be home but in the last few days, he started

How could I be so careless? I missed the perfect opportunity, all the answers were under the same roof and yet I could not get them. The red moon was barely a few days away and here I was sitting ideally.Who could have taken the book?The book had some information about the red moon. It could mean someone else was trying to find out about the moon as well or someone took the book on purpose so that I could not read it.But why would anyone do that?Who could take the book?Bernadette? Only she knew I was looking for some answers about the red moon and she was the one who found me in the library.But it could also be Mia. She was outside, maybe she followed me and saw I was reading the book. She wanted revenge because according to her I took Chelsea's place and even though she did not know anything about my nightmares if she knew I was interested in the book it would make sense for her to take it.I could not search their rooms, it would be too risky but the book was my only hope.I

"Are you okay?"I was pulled out of my thoughts...I was stuck in a loop, I wanted to help people but I had no way of helping anyone while I sat helplessly in Alpha's house."Luca," I smiled. It was customary for me, smile...no matter what you were feeling inside. Greeting guests or just working in the palace meant we had to be polite with a smile always glued to our lips. Werewolves with high ranks could get offended over things that most would consider ignoring. Luca took a seat next to me. I suppressed the urge to move slightly away from him. "You have been avoiding me," he was looking at me."I...uh..." "I am sorry I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable that day."I shook my head, finally looking at him, "I get it, you were upset and it was just..."I wanted to say a mistake but stopped when Luca started talking."I am apologizing because I should have done that sooner when I had the chance.""What are you talking about?"Instead of answering he smiled...the smile was almost

Luca left the pack. Alpha Orion was no longer coming to see me at night, it was something that should not have bothered me but it was bothering me. I would sit at night hoping he would appear like usual to sit next to me but it did not happen. For two days I sat outside on the balcony gazing at the stars waiting for Alpha Orion to show up. I was supposed to be happy, it was what I wanted...for him to leave me alone and he was finally doing it but why was I not happy?"Hey," I smiled at Bernadette. "Oh, hi."She stopped to greet me, looking confused, "Why are you sitting here?"I stood up from the couch and walked in her direction, "I just wanted to see you."It was not the entire truth, I was checking if someone was at home. I wanted to visit the river, it was the only place that could give me some peace. I was still not sure if Bernadette took the book from the library but I was not going to ruin anything between us because of one doubt even though I still did not trust her entire

I let out a sigh and let my body fall onto the floor, my back was touching the shelf on the wall filled with different books. "How am I supposed to find the book?"I did not know if I was expecting the book to answer my question considering I was alone in the library, I managed to sneak inside once I ensured no one was around. The library had hundreds of books except for the book with red velvet cover. After I returned from the forest I was eager to find the book, Bernadette was not talking to me either. The list of people who were avoiding me kept increasing daily, first it was Alpha Orion and then Bernadette. I closed my eyes and started thinking about what possible actions I could take. After almost ten minutes I realized I was left with very few options.With new confidence and a smile, I started walking toward my goal. I was losing my mind, I was having nightmares, and last night I had to witness the death of people once again, a lot was at the stake and with every new day the
Last Updated : 2023-02-20Heart of blood and roses What are you doing here?
*Sometimes we get so tangled between the worlds that we forget the difference between reality and imagination....in my case reality and dreams. I walked on the icy cold tiled floor, shivering in a never-ending room with just brown doors with huge silver locks all over them. The pale yellow walls looked old, paint was worn out in places showing the previous white paint of the walls. I let out a breath, a cloud of fog formed as I exhaled. I rubbed my bare arms with my hands trying to warm myself as I continued walking. None of the doors were open.I stopped to observe the wall closely, there were claw marks from where the paint came off. My brows knitted in confusion as I touched the marking on the wall.Werewolf.I could sense these were made by a werewolf. I licked my cold and dry lips telling myself it was only a dream....but why did it feel so real?Just a few more minutes then I would wake up, with this thought I started walking once again. The fear kept growing with every ste
Last Updated : 2023-02-20Heart of blood and roses I believe you
It was safe to say sleep had officially left me. After I kept tossing and turning in my bed for an hour I got up and decided to sit at my usual spot alone. The night was still dark but so were my thoughts. I thought seeing the corpses and blood in my nightmares was bad but seeing my dead mother turned out to be worse, the way she seemed ready to fight the world for me, the way she was ready to give her life to protect me....and she kept all of her words.But I was a disgrace to her legacy, I was nothing, not a werewolf, not a warrior just an outcast who gave up the idea of fitting in. But who was she talking to? Was it another trick my brain was playing with me or did the dream mean something?All my nightmares with bodies and the red moon turned out to be an indication of the upcoming blood moon but how did my recent nightmare fit anywhere? My mother was dead, I could not ask her for answers. No one from her family was alive either and from what I knew all the relatives from my

Heart of blood and roses Coven is like a tree
I froze as soon as I entered the house. "What...?"Orion stood next to me, "We need to talk to you about something."My heartbeat increased, did something bad happen? Celia was sitting with no smile on her face, next to her was Ruth with a similar expression accompanied by Oliver and Rose. "Is everything alright?" I asked Orion, "Is it about the red moon?"He shook his head, "No, everything is fine, love, just calm down and have a seat."Bernadette gave a sharp nod to Orion, "I will be outside." She was in her beta mode, something was not right.Did they know about what happened near the river? I gulped thinking about it but tried not to show the fear on my face as I sat down in front of the witches. Orion was holding my hand the entire time while his other hand was on my back rubbing circles. "The resemblance..." Celia shed a tear which she wiped quickly."What is happening here?" The silence was making me feel suffocated. "It's best if Celia starts from the beginning," Orion g
Heart of blood and roses I will not tell a soul about it
My feet kept moving, I knew where I had to stop. Orion and I were in the middle of our conversation when he said he figured something out but he had to leave before he could explain anything. We were not getting much time to talk or discuss anything, the red moon was above our heads and even though no one was showing it, we were all scared. I was breathing hard from taking two steps at once and my heart was racing but no matter how much I tried I could not shake the feeling away. A smile made its way to my lips when I saw the girl's long brown hair touching the ground as she sat on the edge of the river. "Flora.""You are late, Ruhee."I paused, her words had no emotions."Are you alright, Flora?" I sat down next to her to take a look at her face. Her skin looked pale as she stared into the distance. I followed her eyes she was staring at the other side of the forest. Everything about her was the same except there was no glow on her face, her eyes had lost their spark. I felt
Heart of blood and roses Forbidden forest
I woke up with a heavy feeling in my head, it was like I had not slept in days which would not be wrong. The nagging feeling inside my stomach was not leaving, the dream I had was too real to be a nightmare. Something was not right, it was not about the blood moon. I rubbed my head and looked at Orion's side of the bed only to find it empty. With a sigh, I picked up the note that he had left on the table, 'I had to make some preparations for the ritual, will be back soon.'The ritual.What was the ritual anyway? How could Orion trust these witches so much?I knew what I was going to do next. I quickly got ready and ran towards the place where the witches were staying. Before getting closer I put on the smile I had mastered in years. The man who came with Celia last night was sitting on the ground, he threw me a look but did not say a word and continued his work. He was carefully removing petals from a plant I had never seen before in this pack. The flowers were blood red and whit
Heart of blood and roses Prevent it from becoming reality
I did not know what I was expecting, maybe someone old, cruel-looking with wrinkly skin and evil eyes but I was not expecting the happy lady in front of me followed by a few others.A woman who appeared to be in her late thirties entered first, she was the shortest out of all but had the biggest smile. Her dark maroon, almost black dress touched the ground as she walked, she had jet-black hair pulled back tightly, and not a single hair was out of place. Her green eyes were barely open from the wide smile she had on her round face. "Oh, my dear, Orion, what a lovely welcome.""Celia, this is my Luna, Ruhee."Celia, the lady who appeared to be their leader stood in front of me."Ruhee," she repeated my name."Thank you for coming here to help us," I said in a soft voice.I highly doubted she heard my words as she almost touched my face with her hand, "You.""Mother, I think we should get some rest and start our work without wasting any time," a girl interrupted Celia before her hand co
Heart of blood and roses Welcome to our pack
"Why would you do that?" I welcomed Alpha Orion with the question as he entered the room. He did not answer and closed the door. "I am talking to you," I repeated, not letting my eyes wander from his face. He did not reply once again and put the phone on the table. I got out of the bed and stood in front of him blocking his path with my hands crossed over my chest. "Alpha Orion, care to explain why you announced about us in front of the entire pack?" My voice was still not loud, I wanted answers but it did not mean I had to be loud. "I did the right thing, princess." He started searching for something. I held his arm with my hand firmly which was surprisingly new for me as well and the action was unusual for him too based on the look on his face. "I think I deserve some answers." He licked his lips and guided me to sit on the bed. "I am fine," I was getting annoyed by his actions. "I was not telling anyone the truth because of your safety, people of this pack had accepted C
Heart of blood and roses I was not a good friend
There was a loud growl that made the ground beneath my feet shake as I tried to stand. I quickly moved my eyes toward the two wolves but only one of them was standing now. It was a large brown wolf, it was the darkest shade of brown I had ever seen with some streaks of black between the fur. This wolf was different as compared to the mustard-brown wolf that was on the ground...not moving at all.The brown wolf kept staring at me as though making sure I was fine. "I am okay, Orion."Orion's wolf let out a low sound. My eyes fell on the other wolf once again and I quickly looked away. Soon the sound of the cracking of bones entered my ears. After a few more minutes Alpha Orion was standing in front of me with a cold expression on his face. "I..."He did not let me say anything else and just scooped me in his arms like I weighed nothing.I gulped."I have no idea who that wolf was."Silence."I do not know why he thought I was taking their Luna's place."Once again no response.But
Heart of blood and roses Our pack
"Hey, I need to talk to you about something."Orion put his phone away and turned to give me his full attention, "I was just coming to find you, I wanted to talk to you as well."I frowned a little but nodded as a sign for him to continue."You go first.""It is fine, I know you must have something important to say about the red moon or the pack," I smiled. Orion returned the smile while shaking his head a little bit but all of a sudden his face became serious. "Witches will be in our pack soon.""What?"He nodded, "I know we don't have much time left and they have decided to help us. We need to make sure everything goes fine here. Witches could be hard to deal with, they don't like to be a part of others' issues."I inhaled a breath. Soon I found his hand on my cheek, his thumb caressing my skin very gently in a circular motion, "Hey, it's okay. I am here with you."I licked my lips and put my hand over his, "I...I had a nightmare."His face hardened and a dark look appeared in hi
Heart of blood and roses Always be mine
I sat silently gazing at the sky, birds had started chirping a melodious song but it sounded like the tone of death to me. No matter how much I tried to convince myself I could not act normally or focus on the blood moon. What if it was just the beginning and I could not stop others from dying either? "I can not protect these people," I said out loud as the reality started sinking in. My breaths started getting heavy and I started feeling uneasy. No matter how much I tried to take deep breaths, I felt like drowning in the ocean. "No," a voice entered my ears, "we are going to protect everyone together.""I want to be alone.""No, you don't. I know you lost a friend and you're mourning his death.""Murder," I said through gritted teeth, "it was a murder.""Princess," he held my wrist but I pulled my hand away from him, "I know you are hurt and angry. You have all the rights to be. I am with you, tell me what you want.""You are not with me, you have no idea what I am feeling righ
Heart of blood and roses I want to be alone
I held the stem attached to the flower tightly, luckily there were no thorns to pierce through my skin. I opened the drawer and put it with the other yellow rose, but today it was red. Orion had been leaving a flower on the table next to my bed every day with a sorry since I stopped talking to him. The blood moon was only 5 days away and we had no progress so far. A knock on the door startled me before I could respond the door burst open and Bernadette stood in front of me."What happened?" Sudden fear rose inside my chest. She kept one hand on the doorknob as she stood silently."Bernadette?" I questioned again taking a step in her direction while getting dark thoughts inside my head. "It's Arwin..."My heart stopped."What about him?" I took another step, "where is he?"She once again fell silent but this time I did not wait and tried to get past her but she held my arm."Listen to me, he's no more."I let out a humorless chuckle, "What are you saying? Have you gone insane? He
