“She didn’t know?!”. James exclaimed as Dario walks back and forth in the hospital room James was put in. “Yes, you dumb goat”. Dario yelled out, clenching and unclenching his jaw as he thought of just how confused his mate was again. She had been through so much and he wanted to tell her when he had answers to give her. “Well, how did she think she was that strong? Elves don’t have all those elements at their display. She’s literally a supernatural cheat code!” He yells out with his hands flailing, expressing just how shocked he was that she didn’t know what she was. The authority she carried. Almost everyone but her knew her true identity. The ones who didn’t know were perplexed at the extent of her strength and powers. “She didn’t even know wolves existed until under a year ago. How was she supposed to know that?!”. He yelled out. The veins in his face were already popping and showing out. He looked angrier than James had ever seen and so he felt very bad. “I’m sorry. I did
“Wait! Please”. Dario pleads as he walks after her. She did not know that her words were really hurtful as they were nates,but he could not blame her. She was not a werewolf and still didn’t fully understand their way of life. “I can’t do this. I can’t”. She cries, shaking her head no as she spoke. She never cried.She had long trained herself to not cry easily but here she was, tearing up almost every day. She felt like it wasn’t good fit her but appreciated that the Ife around her heart was melting. “I’m a monster Dario. Is it until I change into what I’m actually supposed to be and wipe out your whole pack before you’ll let me go?”. She screamed out as he tried to grab the bag she wanted to pack her things in. She’s had enough, and could not bear to be the reason the pack will be flooded with blood. “Yes!”. He yelled back, loosing his patience and composure but not caring at all. “Yes, I’ll take that chance Marissa. You’re not leaving me!”. He yelled again on top of his voic
“Elves are more powerful than werewolves, righ?”. Marissa asks, trying to make sense and normalize all the new information.“Not necessarily. Each have their own strengths, but an average elf can defeat an average wolf”. He said, looking at her and waiting for more questions which didn’t come as she sat back down looking like she was still in disbelief. She still had not been able to fully assimilate and understand what was going on, as her mind was still clouded with shock and confusion. “So, is an Oscura an elf”. She asks again. It was so hard to ask these questions one after the other, as every time she asks, another one popped into her head, and it felt like if she stalled, she would forget them. “Yes, an Oscura is also an elf. However, they were once the rulers of the elven tribe but because of their great powers, they started to become mad and crazy. The truth is that they had a demon side that craved evil and blood and they fed it. They killed recklessly and mercilessly, and
Marissa woke up to the chants coming from outsiders It was a beautiful morning, with light rays of sunlight peaking through her curtains. Waking up to a serene environment was still one she struggled to get used to. She was so thankful on mornings like this because the memories of the past were still so present. She could not have dreamed of this when she was still imprisoned. All she dreamed of was death but it never worked when she tried attempted to. “What are you thinking about so early in the morning princess?”. Dario voiced out after standing by the door for a little while. He woke up every morning with thoughts of his mate but couldn’t help himself today. Walking up to her bed, he placed a kiss on her forehead, which both startled her and made her happy. “Good morning”. He greeted as he took a seat at the foot of her bed. A lot of things had been going through his mind lately. How to deal with the urges he was not now greatly stuggling to control. How to get the pack
“Oh!”. She exclaimed both in pleasure and shock as his hands traveled down south and touched her where she most wanted to be touched. The pair were both so immensed in pleasure that they were startled when a knock on the door sounded. The knock almost had smokes coming out of Dario’s head from the anger he felt from being interrupted. “Who is that?!”. Dario yelled out after the deep groan that he let out. He already knew who was behind that door but waited for an answer. “I’m sorry bestie”. James said, slowly opening the door to reveal his sheepish smile. He knew exactly what was going on, and the sheepish smile he had on his face said it all. The thought that he knew, had Marissa wishing the ground could swallow her. She knew that mates were very open with their attraction for each other, but still struggled with public display of affection. “I’m sorry Luna, I had to an urgent matter to report”. He said with a little bow that had both her and Dario confused. “Why are you be
“You mean they passed through the borders and we didn’t notice?” Dario asks, furious and a little surprised because he prided himself in knowing that his pack has top security as he also was instantly notified whenever a breach was to happen. “Yes. Draco is with them”. James said with a sigh, waiting for an outburst from Darionas Draco was a good friend but a terrible foe. Draco is a cvampire that is out of the ordinary, as he was born both by a witch and a vampire. A birth that no one thought was possible as any similar match died during childbirth.Draco was also a mastermind at disarming and infiltrating places no matter how secured and guarded it was. “I know why they’re here”. Dario said to hakes as a sigh left his lips, watching one of his pack members flip about three times on a single swing attack by a warrior. “They’re not ready for a war or any fight, so let’s try to see how we can accommodate them without a war”. He says so because he knew very well that the vampires w
“Your highness. With all due respect, we came for just a pint of your mated partner’s blood”. Another man who Dario suspected to be the ruler, or son of the ruler of the vampires as he had a crest tattoo on his shoulders, spoke. “With all due respect, I would advise you leave before I become disrespectful”. Dario said with a growl that indicated that he meant every single word he just said. His first thought was “How dare they be so bold to make such a statement in my presence?”. However, as his anger grew at the thought, he realized that they were actually on edge. It was subtle but he had dealt with people like this long enough to know that they were actually scared shitless, abd we’re just holding themselves together (barely). From the slight bouncing of his legs, to the head of sweat that surfaced on his forehead. He knew. On the other hand, James had already unsheathed his sword, ready to fight as he himself was angry as it was an insult to him also. “Put it down”. Dario sa
“What?!”. Dario abd James exclaimed in disbelief but also because deep down he knew it was true. Every wolf with a mate feels heat during the full moon and is the time where most she wolves get pregnant due to their hormones readying itself for conceiving in this period. It was also a time when wolves were most sensitive and at their strongest. Even the weakest wolf was strong enough to defeat a warrior on a normal day. It was a normal thing that happened to wolves but he was just so shocked as he never attributed that trait to himself. Before, he was like a god with no weaknesses and no reactions to normal things that usual wolves had, but since Marissa came, he had been more of a wolf than he had ever been. The thought excited him as much as he dreaded it. He had been fighting the urge to mate with Marissa as he had not done right by her, by marrying her and almost always lost as it was not just the mate bond pushing him. He, on his own, also wanted to know exactly what her m
Her screams shook the whole pack to its core. Every single soul in the pack could not pretend to have not heard a scream that loud. It sounded like one of pain and also a call for help. It’s been wreks now that Marissa had felt the pull of something sinister, a dark urge that whispered in her ear, urging her to embrace the violence that simmered just beneath the surface. It was an insatiable hunger, a desire that clawed at her insides, demanding release.Dario immediately dropped and forgot everything. The only urge currently present was to get to his mate but on rushing to her, he just could not get past an invincible and it frustrated him to no end. “Let me in princess”. He called out and it did not sound like he was pleading. He demanded. However, it seemed like she was in her worn Luther bubble, unable to feel or hear anyone including her mate. Writhing in pain and fear, Marissa screamed again when another wave of pain hit her like a tornado. “Please”“Please”. She chanted l
Just as he was about to send the billionaire to his ancestors, a hand that definitely belonged to Vraise, stopped him halfway. He growled out in anger as he was so close. Previously, he could not help but wonder why exactly the vampire was protecting the billionaire, because Vraise was not one to be involved in matters. Any matters at all, even that of his clan not to talk of the personal matters of a human but in this moment, he did not care. If he did not kill the billionaire today, he would not be able to live with himself. “A common human tormenting my pack because he has some money that I am above”“Move or I will not consider the fact that we have been somewhat friends over the years”. Dario warned as he still felt some sort of friendship between them and chose to give him one last chance. However, what he got in response was an attack from vraise. A sharp clawing and pushing that had him falling several feet away. “That will be the last time you touch me”. He growled as
“Go! Go! Go!”. Dario yelled at the people as they lived into the safe house they had built in the little time that they had been planning. The little underground room was not even finished but could at least hold all of them if they squeezed in, which was not a choice they had. As soon as he saw that the people had almost gone in, he left the rest to Claire who had been directing them. It was in times like this that he was so grateful that he had his sister and the little support group he had. His mind all the while had been on his mate whom was currently unstable but still using whatever strength she had left to hold the bombs and the billionaire off. It angered him to no extent and this time, he let his anger roam freely. He had enough.In his opinion, his mate had been bullied enough and right in front of him again, drove him insane. The idiot had the audacity to come attack his pack and try to steal his mate and thinks he would be able to get away with it. “Today, I’ll let
The little whispers from the office almost sounded like the whispers of the wind and Claire could not help but be a little spooked as the room was filled with a mix of werewolves, vampires, and witches, each bringing their unique strengths to the table. Dario leaned over the large oak desk, tracing the lines of a map with his finger. “We need to fortify our borders and increase patrols, so that they can keep watch while we fight. The billionaire is not to be underestimated”. He said, his voice steady but urgent. “If they’re planning an attack, we can’t let them catch us off guard.” The King of bears added. Just as they began to outline their strategy, a loud explosion shook the building, rattling the windows and sending papers flying into the air. The sound was deafening, and for a moment, everyone froze, eyes wide with shock. Dario's heart raced as he instinctively rea he’d through his mind to see if Marissa was fine. “What the hell was that?” one of the vampires, Elias, exclaime
“Oh God Marissa!”. Claire exclaimed as she saw that there was indeed blood on the window. A lot of it. James on the other hand looked like he was about to pass out and began questioning why he actually accepted to look after her. The fear he had for her had not subsided and now, seeing this made it double. “You killed a bird?” Dario asks, already knowing that it was indeed a bird from the smell it emitted, and she nodded yes. I’m this moment she looked so guilty that he felt so bad for her. She hated those birds that chirped around her window at first but had come to actually look forward to them chirping her awake each morning. “I- I tried not to”. She stammers as she tried the explain her reason for killing it, looking confused and disoriented. “But I craved the blood, I just wanted to feel it’s hot blood run through my fingers.” She said and in that moment, her eyes began to turn red again with a sinister smile playing on her lips. He immediately started to struggle to bre
“It’s high time we decided on a date for the attack. I also have a feeling that you all are hiding something from me and postponing the attack due to that. Now, it’s either you tell me what it is, or I find out myself and ut will not be funny if I do so myself”. He warned as he turned to step out of the room. “Alpha Dario, please wait”. The king of the bears started which stopped Dario in his tracks. “Lycan alpha. We apologize but since we sent scouts to locate his whereabouts since he was not at his mansion, they have not come back.” The leader of the witch clan stated with a winced expression on her face. She expected him to flip out and trash things or even attack them in anger but he did none of that. He already knew to not have expectations when working with them because they all had a way to piss him off beyond bounds. “This is exactly why I work solo.” He said the them as he walked out. He was annoyed, no doubt. Very angry, if he was being honest because they were the re
Waking up from her slumber, it was first confusion as she had somehow lost memories of the last events before her unconsciousness, the next thing was that it felt like a dream to move her limbs again after being cramped up in such a tiny cell. It made her realize that she really had been spoilt because she lived in a tiny cell for several years abd now she finds it terribly uncomfortable to be in one for a few days. She chuckled to herself and immediately, the doors open, revealing Dario who had sensed her awakening and immediately rushed over. It was as if all her memories came in through the door with him and she immediately panicked remembering just how fatigued she was while trying to block the bombs, and didn’t stop even when it felt like her very essence was leaving her. Deep down, she already knew that something was wrong but was still trying to deny it. Shaking her head like someone was telling a her an unbelievable lie. “What is it princess?”. Dario asks, noticing and s
“It’s definitely a full blown war now”. Dario stated as he entered into the meeting hall for a meeting that he just summoned. He was going to start a war whether or not his people agree to it, and was just being courteous to inform them. As soon as those words left his mouth, James stood up and seconded his thoughts because he too was angry and saw that there was literally no reason why there should not be a war between them. The man had kidnapped their Luna, and launched a full attack on their alpha and the whole pack. The whole pack would have been destroyed if Marissa did not strengthen the barrier. If it was up to James, the plan of the billionaire was to exterminate the whole pack and they would be cowards at this point if they don’t fight back. As they conversed with each other, they could hear some commotion outside and Trent was sent to go check what exactly it was that was disrupting their meeting. “Alpha, it is the bears”. Trent came in, sounding alarmed and with good
He vividly remembered the day she created the barrier.Marissa stood at the edge of the clearing, her heart pounding as she focused her energy. The air crackled with tension, a palpable reminder of the chaos that had unfolded. The war had destroyed the barrier so she made a stronger one. Marissa was indeed no ordinary elfWith a deep breath, she closed her eyes, summoning the ancient magic that coursed through her veins. The ground beneath her feet began to tremble as she channeled her energy, visualizing a barrier of shimmering light rising around her pack. It was a technique passed down through generations, a protective shield that could withstand even the most ferocious attacks. As she concentrated, the air grew thick with magic, and a radiant dome began to form, encasing her friends in a cocoon of safety.As soon as they entered the pack house, she got up and listened to no protect from anyone, including her mate and started to streng
