The Hawthorne necklace on her neck flashed a dull light as her body continued to be assaulted with ith great magnitude of pain. The Vampire king has no mercy and that is reflected in his actions of leaving the potency of the Hawthorne necklace active on her neck. She quietly moaned in pain but she couldn't leave the spot or tear the necklace away from her neck because of her tied limbs.“ You will pay for your sins!” She spat out blood as the last words of Decanal invaded her head.“ I will kill you with my own hands!” Diana's voice cursed in her head as the Hawthorne continued to inflict her with pain both mentally and physically. She couldn't distinguish between the first Decanal and the current one in her head.It was all her, Kiona Crosset's doing. Three hundred years ago, She had killed the first Decanal by
Chapter 21.“ fuck!” Howard cussed out loudly immediately he shifted to his human form. He had watched the process in his head but his wolf was in control of everything. He didn't expect her to fight his mark, the wound wasn't healing as more blood gushed out of the wound. He quickly carried with bothering to wear his clothes back as he headed to the direction of the pack hospital.The Alpha had given him an ultimatum a day before. He asked him to mark Diana within two days or he would have her mated to another willing person. He doesn't want her to end up with another man, seeing her with another man might break him so he makes a selfish decision to mark her against her will even though he promised to wait till she is ready.He had tried to do it himself but his conscience kept on judging her so had to involve his wolf instead. The wolf would only follow instincts since both of them have deep affection for Diana. The wolf would do it without batting an eyelid. But he had not expect
Chapter 22.Three years ago.Diana's eyes struggled to remain close as she watched the retreating figure of her mate. She felt herself getting weaker as the seal of Decanal became weaker. The malevolent part of her wolf threatened to come out to heal her fully but she was using all her strength to prevent the seal from breaking. If that part of Decanal were to be set free, she would succumb to the uncontrollable bloodthirsty part of Decanal once again and she may end up on a killing spree.Her fur spread out as her wolf's poison ran through her to combat the burning effect of the silver. Her golden eyes became duller by the moment before turning to a faint orange.A loud growl reverberated through the forest as her entire body became covered in her fur. She grunted in pain before vomiting dark blood expelling the silver from her body, She could hardly feel the seal anymore. Her eyes had become red, her hands were now bigger claws and her black night fur was turning white starting fr
Chapter 23.Three years ago.A week later, The Alpha woke up but was still weak from the poison that had spread throughout his entire body. His left eye was now permanently blind due to being destroyed by the poison. He could have lost his life but Kiona was there to save him with her magic.He struggled to sit up on his recovery bed while Kiona fed him some potion that he grimaced immediately after each spoon left his mouth. The door to the room barged open and Howard who was now looking better stomped in while holding a letter with a royal seal on it. The Alpha was inviting him to a council meeting. He had waged a war against the king of another race without the knowledge and consent of his king. His crimes were much more than treason as he had also threatened the safety of his pack by breaking the seal on Decanal which made her succumb to blood lust, killing more than fifty wolves in the process. It was only normal if the Alpha king summoned him.He tore the letter after reading
Chapter 24.Three years ago.The rain poured with a mad rage and thunder accompanied it with an equal measure. Kiona's hands were raised to the sky and words of chants and spells left her mouth in a matching rhythm with the words of the sky. All the wolves of the Redmoon pack were in the middle of a revolution against their Alpha who was holding them hostages against the king's order.After surrounding the pack house with the green substance that activates her spell, the magic powder becomes a wolfsbane that prevents the wolves of the king from entering and the wolves of the Redmoon pack from leaving. It was chaos but the witch wasn't bothered. Alpha Leonard remained in his office following her orders, the green powder was on his entrance also preventing the raging wolves from entering his office. Howard was doing his best to keep the wolves under control but it was hard when he also harbored the same intentions towards his Alpha and the witch who kept performing her spell without a
Chapter 25.The iron bars of the prison suddenly get kicked in, breaking with the impact of the kick of the vampire king. With one fluid movement, he grabbed her by her neck and had her pinned against the wall, the Hawthorne necklace glowed after his contact with it but he didn't care. He had her in a chokehold and the effect of the Hawthorne pierced her entire body with fresh hot pain that burned her like molten lava. At this point, she has lost her will to live. She just wants to die and be free from the wrath of the vampire king.“ Tell me why Diana is in a coma. Why?!” He roared at her, almost deafening her with the volume of his voice. She could only shake in response. She doesn't have an answer to his questions and she couldn't even think of one.“ I don't know. I don't know ” She cried, her throat hoarse from all the crying she had done before. In her entire three hundred years of existence, she has never been in pain so much. Not even when Decanal murdered her entire coven in
Chapter 26..“ Little one? How? How did you get here?” He gasped seeing both of them in his dreams. She came to him herself instead of him penetrating her dreams himself. She looked different from what she normally looked like in her dreams. She had grown in the past three years and now she has revealed her present appearance to him in his dream, but her wonderful smile was still plastered on her face.“ I had thought I wouldn't hear you call me little one again” She blushed as she moved closer to him. She reached out to touch his face as he stared at her still dumbstruck. He couldn't believe it, she came to him. Even though it was through a dream, he was happy to see her.“ So perfect” She muttered trailing her fingers on his face, from his cheekbones to his lips. She nodded and smiled. “ Even without my memories, you remained the most perfect man I ever laid my eyes on”He grabbed her fingers and dragged her closer to him, engulfing her in a big hug. He was close to tears holding
Chapter 27.“ Little one, close your eyes,” He told her and she obeyed immediately. He also closed his eyes and searched for the memory of the very first time he met her in his mind, he placed his left arm on her forehead and opened up his mind to her, giving back to her, the memories he had taken from her. He allowed her to see everything from his perspective instead of hers, the information would be lost if he just returned it to her like that, he prays it works.FlashbackDarryl suddenly stopped in the middle of the woods, something catching his attention. He sniffed the air, and he couldn't deny it, there was an incredibly sweet smell that calmed his racing mind. He tried to dismiss it and continue searching for the vampire, but the scent was pulling him in. It was as if he were under a spell, and he found himself running toward it, leading him to a young lady curled up in a ball, sleeping on the grass.Seeing her lying there in such cold weather struck his heart. He couldn't fee
