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

Jaque POV . . We were here. We were now here at the final destination of the Rogie King. We clasped our hands as we approached the wooden fence near the entrance of this forest. It was just a simple barrier for human eyes, but for creatures like us, it was the doorway to the realm of the hollies. The fence was just beside the highway where a few cars passed by. This highway was in the middle of mountain trees, and the only lights that served as the vision of the drivers were the post lamps with a distance of ten meters away each. "So, this is it!" I breathed. "Are you ready, my king?" Forcing a smile, but my hands were shaking. I just couldn't imagine Logan parting with me again, and this one had no chance of returning. If he failed, then he failed. If he won, then it would be a great victory for everyone. "I am, sweetheart. Don't be anxious, okay? I promised to be back, hence I will be back!" He smiled back with the reassurance to return to me alive. I hugged him tight
Jaque POV . . "Jaque!" my stepmother's voice echoed in the whole house like thunder, jolting me from my spot. I was in my room and had just finished cleaning the second floor of this house. As much as possible, I would like to rest for a bit, but it looked like the word resting for me would only happen when I was already dead. "What does she want this time?" I muttered under my breath as I got up and dragged myself to the door. "Coming, Lauren!" I answered before she would yell again. Upon coming downstairs, a black ball gown with a sweetheart neckline covered my petite body. "Here!" I knew that was Lauren even if I couldn't see her face. The sound of her demanding voice was no longer new to me. "Take care of this with your life. Jasmine will wear this for the ball tonight!" "The ball?" I asked, surprised. No one told me about the ball. Oh, well! What's new in this pack? No one told me about special events like this. Except for preparing the pack's food and doing their la

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
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
