"How dare she do something as despicable as that?" He groaned and made to confront her when Aerona stopped him."N...no please don't." Aerona said and Zayn furrowed his brows."Why don't you want me to confront her? I mean she has done something wrong and the best thing to do now is to confront her and get a valid explanation as to why she would dare punish you or insult my mother." He replied."I know you're hurt, but please don't do anything drastic, at least not now." She implored slowly clutching his wrist."Please." She implored one more time, and he gave a nod.She slowly got off his jacket and Zayn stared at the shape of her body. The dress she was putting on had glued to her body, and her boobs were exposed.He remembered when they both made out together. All of the memories came back to his head and he found himself yearning for her again.He swallowed hard as he tried to control himself. He made to move, but he could hear grim yelling in his head to make a move, and this was
She couldn't believe that even the Alpha that promised her heaven and earth will betray her afterwards.She never accepted defeat, and she vowed to fight till the end of it."If I don't do something now, then she would surely get to steal my mate from me, I knew that she has always been a threat to me, and she was a snatcher and she has proved it today." She muttered to herself as she left to her chambers.And after a while someone got into her room. "I hope you brought what I requested?" She asked the figure that stood in front of her."Why won't I? You know seeing the downfall of that wretched Aerona is my greatest joy." She responded and Isla gave a smirk."Thanks to you, you exposed and told me everything I needed to know about Aerona, and so seeing that she and the Alpha are still having something together isn't a surprise to me." Isla replied with a smirk."That Aerona is a traitor, and she is the reason why had come back." The figure responded."I know that all you want is reve
The sound of barking dogs filled the air and Zayn's hair was whipped back by a cold wind that left his teeth clattering. The sense of impending doom rested upon him thickly like a wet blanket, and while he was not usually one to ignore his instincts, he had no choice but to do so. It had to stop. In the past month, three had gone missing from his pack, leaving them on the edge and with much angst. He had every reason to believe the witches of Earlham had been behind it. Why else would they have undermined his orders and crossed into his territory when he had so clearly stated that any witch found within his borders would be beheaded? It could not be a coincidence that a witch of Earlham had been found in his territory at the same time that the girls had gone missing. They had taken the girls, and he only hoped he got them back before they were harmed. It was all the witches did anyway. Steal and destroy. And he would repay them back in kind. They were only a few miles
Raven black hair tumbled over tan shoulders, stopping only when it reached his torso. He had eyes of truest amber and they were so cold, Aerona shivered. Her eyes trailed along the elegant lines of his face and she found that she couldn’t draw her gaze away from him. Aerona had seen her fair share of men but none were this beautiful. There was nothing soft or delicate about his features. Wild and rare was his kind of beauty. He was not a man you looked away from. Or walked away from. He was the type of man you ran away from. All of her senses screamed danger as she observed the man who was bathed in blood and covered with tattered clothes that had no doubt been ripped from battle. Her eyes drooped from his luscious and sensual lips to the skin below his neck. Through the rip of his shirt, she could see the build of muscles and—she swallowed, forcing her gaze back to his face. She jerked, heart slamming in her chest when she found his amber gaze narrowed on her. He tilt
Mate. The word had clanged through him the moment her scent of jasmine had reached his nostrils, cleaving right through the grief and anger that had been eating away at him. The witch’s daughter was his mate. And she didn’t know or suspect anything. It brought a lot of things into question. What was a wolf doing in a horde of witches? Did she really know nothing of it or was she as deceitful as the other witches? He had seen her bright eyes of turquoise blue. There was only stark clarity in them. She had not known what she was, or who he was to her. He had seen her confusion and he had known the moment she dismissed it, choosing instead to speak to him. He couldn’t tell if it was a blessing or a curse, but he knew one thing for sure. He would never be with her. He would reject her the moment he got out of this cage. But he needed her now. She was the daughter of the Head Witch. If anyone could help him escape from this miserable place, it would be her. He had seen the warines
“Do not mention this again, Aerona!” her mother yelled and Aerona winced from the high-pitched tone. Celeste rarely raised her voice at Aerona. It was a first, and Aerona very well knew she had earned it. Even if Zayn was such an ass, she would try her best to get him out of the dungeons, and back to his home. He had said he was sure they had attacked his home in the passing, and it was why he had marched upon their enclave with his men. And she could understand that. She couldn’t imagine what she would have done had she been in the same situation. If she had a family somewhere out there—her true family—and she got wind that they were in harm’s way, she would go to the ends of the earth and back to get them back. “Mother. . .” Aerona drawled in a manner that usually worked when she needed something from Celeste, but the hardness in Celeste’s eyes didn’t crack a tiny bit. It remained, and Aerona feared that even she wouldn’t be able to move her mother. “He really i
If she had, then Aerona was a fool. He wasn't going to feel guilty for what he was planning, not now, not ever. His pack had not only lost women but men. Trusted warriors, friends and family.The witches of Earlham were going to pay with more than their lives. With rage controlling his senses, he walked past his bedroom, and into the open meeting hall in his chambers, and sat on the only chair there, which was a throne carved out of the finest wood. The rage was good, at least it would dull, and eventually eliminate all lingering feelings that wasn't meant to be there in the first place, he just had to find a way to eliminate the taste, her taste."Alpha Zayn, the Generals have been summoned. Is there anything else?" His omega asked."I need my wine this instant." He barked. It was really a problem, he couldn't think right if her taste still drowned his senses. This was madness."At once, Alpha Zayn." The omega replied and sped off his chambers.Few seconds later his Generals began t
"We cannot have her here." The first witch screamed."She should be banished." Another added, shouting louder than the first."Queen Celest, she is not one of us. We must burn her." The third shouted even louder than the previous two, igniting the rest of the witch community to chorus her last words."Burn her. Burn her. Burn her to the ground.""Quiet." Celest the Queen of the witches of Earlham shouted and at once the crowd went silent. She rested back on her throne, crossing her legs so elegantly as she looked at Aerona. Her daughter who now knelt in front of her throne with hands bounded with silver chains. Behind Aerona, the crowd of her sisters and followers stood, angry like a raging tempest ready, and waiting to swallow her foe. "We are not barbarians. We do not burn our own kind." Celest said."She is not one of us. She is not our kind. She betrayed our kind and freed those monsters." They all shouted. Celest rubbed her temple ad she heard their words. Aerona had really done
She couldn't believe that even the Alpha that promised her heaven and earth will betray her afterwards.She never accepted defeat, and she vowed to fight till the end of it."If I don't do something now, then she would surely get to steal my mate from me, I knew that she has always been a threat to me, and she was a snatcher and she has proved it today."

Isla didn't spare her no matter how much sh screamed as she watched how the guards flogged her terribly."Get to work, otherwise the strokes would only increase the more." She threatened in a smirk.And Aerona managed to get back to work, trying to clean the room with just the rags. And in trying to clean the room, she mistakenly barged on one of the flower vases and it fell to the ground breaking into pieces."Damn! That was my favorite." She said in widened eyes as she went closer to see that it had broken beyond repairs, she turned back to Aerona in a glare. "I... I am really sorry, I didn't intend to." "Shut the fuck up you wretched slave." She yelled at her. "Look what you did." She replied."It was only a mistake, I didn't intend to do it." Aerona replied."Lies, all you just said now is nothing but a lie. You intended to break it because I asked you to clean my room right?" Isla asked."I didn't intend to do this, believe me please " Aerona pleaded."You'll surely pay for thi
"Finally I'll be the most Powerful of all Luna and my fame would spread around all around the werewolf kingdoms " she said in an excited tune.She sat upright as she called for a servant. "Yes Luna." She replied."I want you to go call me that slave." She replied to the guard. The guard was left to wonder who exactly the slave was."You're so dumb." She cursed the guard."Go call me Aerona this minute." She barked angrily at her, as the guard gave a bow before leaving the room to go fetch Aerona.A few minutes later, Aerona was brought to Isla. The moment the door was opened, she could tell that it was Aerona, and with this she slowly turned in her direction."We meet again." She replied in a smirk, but Aerona maintained her strict and stern countenance. Isla got up from the bed and headed to where she was."You think you can actually become stubborn and a thorn in my flesh right?" She asked and Aerona remained silent. "You know what I hate?" She asked but Aerona was still silent.
"But." "No Aerona, I think we should just drop the case, whatever the Alpha wants to do, then it is left for him, I don't want to get myself into more trouble than this." She replied, backing off from the plan, as she stood up and left Aerona to herself.Aerona was speechless. She barely even knew what to say or do at the moment. No one was willing to help her win over Isla. No one wanted to get themselves into this, and she just realized that she was on her own, fighting a lost battle."What do I do? How do I expose Isla?" She muttered to herself. *****Isla was still angry at the way Aerona spoke to her. She didn't respect her, and this was literally the problem she was having in the pack.Nobody ever respected her, and this was what she hated. No one regarded her as a Luna.But she was going to make sure that everyone bows to her, and obeys her command.The elders were having a meeting in the palace when she arrived, but that wasn't her concern.She went straight to where Zayn s
"This is to show how useless and pathetic you are to him, he never loved you as his mother." She said and Natalie's eyes had already begun going wet.Her words sounded real and this was something that broke her heart so much. She had always loved and cherished her son a lot and thought that her son loved her exactly the same way she loved and respected him, but for an outsider to say such things to her, only proved that Zayn had drifted away from her, and he no longer cared for her anymore."You think that his affection towards you and over protection would last long? You think he would regard you as a mother for so long?" She asked and this drove Natalie to anger that she was tempted to smack her across the face, but she immediately clutched the hands of Natalie."Don't even think of trying to lay your filthy hands on me." She replied with a disgusted look, and this was the same time Aerona walked into the garden and seeing how she held the Luna's hands got her mad as she ran toward
She felt the urge to bounce on her terribly, but that was only going to worsen things here and make her look more like the bad guy, and that was the least of what she ever wanted.She was still annoyed with what Aerona said to her. And she could clearly see that no one in this pack was ready to give her the respect she deserved and this was one thing that pissed her off."I see you do not have respect for me right?" She asked and Aerona said nothing other than to stare at her with detest.She felt really angry, but tried her best not to do anything silly.She knew that having to get mad and do something might turn the tables around her.Aerona was once the lover of the Alpha, and she doesn't really know what kind of relationship they share till now. She needed to be sure of her steps before taking actions.She didn't want to create a bad impression of herself to the Alpha yet, and that was why she watched in silence as Aerona left her presence without saying a word."You can see right
Aerona had been watching Isla and Zayn. She could not easily accept the fact and reality of everything. The fact that she had lost him pained her a lot, and she so much wished that there was something she could do about it, but no matter how much she tried to think about it, it was just not yielding any results.Zayn had made his decision, and there was nothing she could do to convince him, let alone change his mind of not having to take someone like Isla as his mate.Regardless of the fact that she was jealous, she never saw Isla to be a better option for the alpha.She could see how proud and how rude she was to the servants and everyone that got into her way. She had no single respect for anyone in the pack and takes everyone to be below her, and this is not how a Luna should behave.She could never nominate someone like Isla to be the Luna of this pack. But then, there was nothing she could do. Her opinion in this case was not needed, and the Alpha would never listen to anyone le
"Is that clear?" She barked at the maid who gave a nod."Hmm!" She sighed and went back to her seat to have her food, while the maid stood muted not saying a word.Although she was pained by how Isla smacked her. She was the chief maid in the palace, and no one has ever raised a hand on her not even the Luna, and so having an outsider smack her was something she could not bear to take."Can I go see the Luna now?" She asked with a roll."You're going nowhere, and don't let me loose my temper on you, because you definitely won't like what I'll do to you." She threatened the maid. The chief maid had run out of patience, and definitely could not take it anymore."You smacked me and I kept quiet, and yet you are still being insulent, who the hell do you think you are? You are not even the Luna of this pack, and I see no reason why you should act all bossy." The chief maid said.Isla halted on her food and turned back to her. "Were you just talking to me?" She asked and the maid gave a no
