Adam POV . . In the dining room, everyone was silenced. While three servants placed different meals on the marble table, Andrew and I stared at the food. Obviously, no seafood was served. There was pork, beef, and salad. Fresh fruits such as papaya and cantaloupe were also at the corner. One of the servants was serving the princess by putting different food on her plate. The other servants were busy pouring white wine into our glasses. "Alpha Adam, what do you know about my siblings?" Suddenly, Princess Amira asked. I was about to put the steak in my mouth, but I had to stop and put the cutlery down to answer her question. "I have met Orora in a battle. She is quite fierce like you!" She snorted and rolled her eyes upon hearing my comment to her sister. "Collen, on the other hand, as I have heard, is a trickster. He can change his appearance to different forms!" "Indeed, he is. He can change into a woman and ant, too, if he wants!" Princess Amira continued. "What about
Adam POV . . "Never mind!" She just also shrugged her question off. She turned around and was about to leave when she tapped my shoulder. I felt chills down my spine when her skin touched my shirt. "You appear to be anxious when I come closer, Alpha?!" I could hear a tease in her tone. I couldn't even afford to glance at her. "Of course not, my princess. I am not worthy to feel anything for you except my respect!" That was the truth, although I could hear Kylo snarling at me, disapproving of my choice of words. "Then why do I hear disapproval from your wolf?" With those words that she just released from her mouth, I was rooted in my spot. Kylo was also dumbfounded. Could she hear him? "I... I... don't know what you mean, Princess Amira!" I was stuttering. 'Pick up your brain on the ground, idiot!' I heard Kylo roar. Princess Amira suddenly burst out laughing. "Your wolf is funny, Alpha Adam. What's his name?!" Should I tell him? An idea popped up in my mind. "Make a g
Jaque POV . . Logan and I were still resting when shattering broken glasses made me jolt from my sleep. My hand involuntarily went onto my chest as I gasped loudly, making Logan crease his brows and his still-sleepy eyes open. "Logan, did you hear that?" I whispered as I glanced outside. That was indeed ear-deafening. "Looks like something is going on outside!" However, his attitude seemed not to be bothered by the noises at all. He wrapped his strong arm around me and pulled me back to lie down instead. "I'm still sleepy!" He also buried his face in the crook of my neck and sniffed my hair. Within just a split second, I could already hear his calm breathing. "But Logan, it looks like there is a huge fight going on!" I struggled to get up. His arm was like a metal, heavy enough to lift. "Logan, I need to check~ whoaaah!" I screamed in fright when I saw Alaric just crush on the bricks of the castle by the window where our room was. It seemed like somebody or something strong
Jaque POV . . "Where are they? Are they still outside?" Witch Anya questioned upon appearing in front of us. Victoria was with her, just like her neutral expression, calm and cold. When the blast of something like thunder flashed on the door, creating an ear-deafening noise, the usual calm Victoria jumped on her post and gripped Witch Anya's arm tightly. "We have to stop them now. We are wasting too much time!" I yelled at them, making them all glance in my direction. When they saw how serious I was, even Logan, who was a high and mighty king, obeyed at once. "Let's go. You stay behind me, sweetheart!" He whispered as he placed himself in front of me, shielding me from the enormous fight outside. "Witches, form a small circle!" Orora commanded. I was stunned that none of the two protested at her demanding tone. As they began chanting a spell in Latin, Collen also shifted into an eagle and flew toward Alaric, who was shooting fireballs at Amira. On the other hand, Amira
Jaque POV . . "How is he?" I was waiting outside of our designated bedroom for a couple of hours when Witch Anya finally came out with some potion in her hands. "What are those bottles for?" I pointed at the two small plastic bottles that had the colors green and yellow in them. "For your first question, King Logan is getting better, but still unconscious. Your second, these are vials for taming Thorin and making him weak a little bit!" She walked past me and turned around after. "Jaque, you can see him now!" Witch Anya smiled. "Victoria is watching him!" I just nodded and stood up. I went straight to his bed, where he was lying unconscious. Victoria was just calmly watching him. "Logan, can you hear me?" I whispered in his ear. I heard him groan and was delighted to see that he was responding. He was so pale. Thorin had taken a lot of his energy earlier. "Logan!" I sat on the edge of his bed. Victoria was just watching my every move. "I am just here!" I whispered again. Wi
Logan POV . . There was no way in this world, and in the realm of the gods and goddesses, would I team with this bloodsucker. I hated their kind and his guts! "I can go there alone, Jaque. I don't need anybody's help. Especially not with him!" Everyone could tell who I was talking about based on my glare in his direction, and the same with him, Alaric was throwing me a dagger stare. "I can't even stand his face in my castle. What do you think you're doing, Shiva?!" Alaric was also upset. His fangs were protruding in his gums. "If ever!" But then the wind had suddenly changed its direction. Alaric was massaging his chin while staring at me from head to foot. "Although I like the idea of having a special snack. A king's blood might be tastier than a normal wolf's blood!" My blood boiled at his words, and I sprinted toward him right away. Even if Thorin was dormant, I still had the wolf's speed in my system. "Say, that again, bloodsucking moron!" My voice vibrated with that
Logan POV . . At night... "This is ridiculous!' Alaric snorted under his breath. Victoria commanded us to stay in the middle of the forest to reflect. It took them a couple of hours to convince us to agree to their stupid plan. Alaric picked up a stone and threw it in the dark. "F*ck!" I scoffed and rolled my eyes at his exaggerated expression. Getting up from the ground, I stepped away for a while. I couldn't stand being with this bloodsucker for just a second. How about more days or months? "To sh!t this!" I whispered good enough for him to hear it. He glanced over his shoulder before he gradually turned around. Our stares met, burning and bleeding in both rage and disgust. "You think I also approved of this, werewolf king?!" He sarcastically uttered, making me raise my brow at him. "No matter what we do, there is no way that vampires and werewolves will be at peace!" He stressed out. "You think I also want that, vampire prince?" I also told him with the same tone

Orora POV . . 'Alaric, Amira! Come to the land of the reptilia. Collen has shifted to his dragon form to save Victoria!' I didn't think twice about telling them about Victoria anymore. They had to come here quickly. Collen was just blowing fire to the vast forest. The reptilians ran and tried to escape the heat and flames, but a few of them had been burned alive. 'What the heck is Victoria doing there? We don't have any problems with the reptilians. Do not touch them, and they won't touch us!' Alaric explained. Everyone knew that the reptilians were dangerous creatures in nature brought to Earth by their reptilian god, Talon. However, they were isolated from other creatures. They had their own lands and own life. They didn't mingle with the other creatures even if they were just separated by forest borders. 'You have to tame Collen. We're on our way!' Amira butted in. 'Goodness, Orora. Talk to Collen now. That wildfire can reach the human lands and the other werewolf packs
Orora POV . . Sometimes, Alaric was really annoying. But I could understand him. All he wanted was for his siblings to be happy and safe. Now, he was using his authority again. However, how could I tell my mate about this? My siblings and I had just talked about my decision to live in Ruben's kingdom, and he exclaimed and refused. He demanded the dragon king's presence in his castle in Yorkshire along with the clans of vampires. "A penny for your thoughts?!" That was Shiva, almost giving me a heart attack. I pressed my chest while giving her a glare. "Wow! The most powerful witch is startled?! Unbelievable!" Shiva shook her head while smiling. "Don't ever do that to me again, Shiva. It isn't funny!" I told her while staring at her belly bump. "How's my niece doing?" I asked as I touched her belly. The baby kicked right away. "I think she already answered my question!" I smiled at her. "Hmm! She is as strong as her aunts. What can I say? By the way, Logan told me about yo
Amira POV . . "There are lots of problems to solve not just here in the Atlantis, but also in the woods. First, we have to focus on the problems here!" "We will do as you command, Princess Amira. Commander-general Amet, what do you think?" One of the leaders of the Seven Seas asked my well-trusted warrior, who I could tell was pissing my mate off in silence. "Hrmm! Before I draw out my opinion about this, I would like to know the future prince's opinion first!" He was deliberately testing Adam's wit. I was aware that Amet had never had a good relationship with Delmar in the past. However, Adam had no idea about that. He couldn't remember Amet as one of his best warriors before. "I agree with your Princess, Commander-general Amet!" Adam made his voice louder. "The Atlanteans are for the water. Therefore, before you deal with the problems on the land, you better fix the problems in your own surroundings first!" He was right. "Since, Amira!" He intertwined his hand with my
Collen POV . . "Hrm! Collen, Victoria is fine now. She said she is still feeling dizzy, but she can already walk normally!" Orora uttered while smiling teasingly at me. 'I'm the one who can't walk normally!' I told myself while my orbs were at her. "I can see that!" My mind was gentle to her, but my mouth was the one that was not cooperating. I saw her twitch her lips upon hearing my aggressive tone. "Victoria, you scared us in the camp. I am glad that you are okay now!" Beta Jackson tapped my arm before ambling towards the grown-up Victoria. "You've changed physically!" He also left a handsome smile, making my heart race in anger. "Thanks, Beta Jackson. I am not used to my new look yet. But I promise to work hard on this!" Goddess, her voice had changed, too. She was indeed a lady now. "Collen, aren't you going to greet Victoria?" Orora called, signaling me to come forward. "Hello, Victoria. I am glad that you are okay now!" I simply couldn't produce any long sent
Collen POV . . "Are you sure about that? Beta Jackson, you are making a huge accusation if that is not true!" I exclaimed. My heart raced faster than usual. I was still gasping for breath when Orora came back, shaking her head. "It is the truth, Collen. I saw it with my eyes. She is now as tall as ~" "Don't say it!" I stopped him right away. "I don't want to hear it!" I whispered. I wanted to calm down, but my mind was foggy at the moment. "Orora, what have you found out?" "I can't find any answers to this phenomenon, Collen. I'm sorry. For now, we have to speak with her. Hopefully, she will allow us!" She reached for my hand and smiled. "I'm sure your friend will be fine, Collen!" I could see the genuine words in her tone. "I hope so. I don't want to see her growing up. I can't handle it just yet!" I told her while looking at the room where Victoria was. "What did you say? She was growing up?!" Orora asked, confirming. "Victoria was miraculously growing up?!" She ex
Collen POV . . What was this I felt at the moment? I was uneasy and somewhat unsettled. I was thinking of someone, and I hadn't seen her for a long time. I glanced around the wide garden in the palace and wandered for a while. My golden orbs flickered upon seeing a bee buzzing on top of this lavender flower. "Lavender!" I burst out in a whisper. I could recall someone who loved lavender so much. "Victoria!" The six-year-old high witch. No! A thousand-year-old high witch but was stuck in the body of her six-year-old self. "Hey, Collen!" Orora came in. "Have you seen Shiva? Or have you seen Amira come by?" She asked. Her face looked plastered. Her hands were sweating while they were clenched. Her eyes were glancing around. "I haven't. Why?" I asked as I observed her. She was anxious, but why? "Do you want to talk to them?" "Yes, I want to say something to you all. I already called Alaric. He is on his way!" If my thoughts were occupied by Victoria, Orora was also som
Adam POV . . I was woken up by the loud ringing of the alarm outside or whatever that squeaking sound that was irritating my ears. My eyes squinted as I spread my arm to my side and felt a soft familiar skin. She was still in a deep sleep and goddess; she looked gorgeous and at peace. I just couldn't wake this goddess-like beauty beside me. I gently touched her soft pinkish cheek while staring deeply at her long and kneeling eyelashes. "What kind of kindness or courageous act have I done to have you as my reward?" I whispered. However, the loud ringing or sound outside was making my ears twitch. I creased my brows at the door and then shifted them to the sleeping beauty, who seemed to not be bothered by that annoying squeaking sound. I kissed her cheek, and she moaned. "Are you awake?" She whispered, smiling at me. I kissed her lips this time, and she wrapped her arms around my neck. "I have been watching you, my love!" I whispered. "That sound woke me up!" I added, a li
Amira POV . . "That was great!" He placed a soft kiss on my lips before he rolled over, lying next to me. He lay sideward and brushed the strands of my hair, making me moan. "My love, when are we going to make our relationship final? I can't wait to announce to everyone that you are my Luna and you only belong to me. You already have my mark!" Adam whined like a kid. Seriously, when did he learn to be cute? I also lay sideward, facing him. "When everything is settled. When there's no more Alectrona on our way. When the peace in every kingdom is reached!" I gently told my mate, touching the little hair growing on his jaw. "Adam, your stubble beard looks good on you!" I told him while my fingers played on its jawline. "Do you like it?" He asked, placing a soft kiss on my forehead. "If you want, I can grow my hair!" "No! I want it this way. Don't grow it into a beard. You look much more handsome this way. Also, I like its roughness!" I smiled at him as I moved closer. The du
Amira POV . . "So you've got this information from the nymphs in the forest?" Orora clarified. "I can't believe it. That Jasmine is really vicious!" She was seething in anger. We were at the Blood Moon Pack packhouse, having a meeting with Adam, Beta Andrew, Demeter, Collen, and Orora. We also summoned Shiva to come and join, but due to her pregnancy, she couldn't attend. King Logan had been keeping her company. My sister was in her 2nd trimester now, and my niece couldn't behave herself inside her mom's womb. Shiva complained a lot about morning sickness and body pain. Well, the last time I saw her, she looked like she had swallowed a whole watermelon. What about now? I bet the princess of Shadow Rock Kingdom was as strong and as fierce as her aunts. In addition to that, as pretty as we were. Collen got up from his seat and strode to the floor-to-ceiling glass window. He watched the scenery outside while muttering something. "What are you mumbling, Collen?" Alpha Adam aske
