SHEILA’S POINT OF VIEW I held her in my arms with contempt on my face, the hatred spread within me, I could hardly contain it. I hate her so much, this tiny baby in my arms!How did she even survive? Why did she survive? I wish she had died! I wish she had not survived! It would have made things a lot more easier, I would not have had to look at her and see the face of my arch enemy, I would not have had to pretend that she is mine even though I know she isn’t. She was born out of my womb but this abomination is not my child, she is Sheila Mckylie child…Sheila’s child who had developed in my womb after I took her body.I successfully killed Sheila, I successfully took over her body, if only I had known about her pregnancy, if only I had known of this abominable werewolf-witch offspring she had in her womb then I would have not gone ahead with my plan.“Ma’am do you want to breastfeed her now?” The smiling doctor asked, I glared at him. Held on the baby’s blanket a lot more tightly, w
VALENCIA’S POINT OF VIEW “You can live with us in the palace.” Alpha Dario said again with a smile, I looked from Amber to him unsure of what to say or do, I don’t want to leave the people I have known to be my family since I moved into the Outland, I don’t want to leave Amber, Nathan and Adam. “Thank you for saving my baby, it means the whole to me… but I think I’ll just go home with my family.” I said gesturing to Adam, Amber and Nathan. Family. That is one word… one thing I have always wanted, a family, people to call home. A smiled at the thought of this, my aunty always said that I will never be part of a family, that I will die cold and alone because of my curse but apparently she was wrong I have a family now, Amber, Nathan and Adam are my family. “I will go home with my family.” I said again just because i like the sound of the word family. “I’m sorry Valencia.” Amber started, she was fiddling with her hands and avoiding my eyes, I knew immediately that something was wrong
VALENCIA’S POINT OF VIEW “What the fuck are you doing here bitch!” Lady Nicole yelled at me, her face scrunched up in rage, hatred and whatever horrible emotions she has towards me. Instinctively, Hazel’s nanny took my baby out of my arms, I felt really grateful to her for this because Lady Nicole lurched towards me and soon enough her hand landed on my face in a slap.“I’m not going to let you ruin my life with Dario! He is mine, you hear? Mine!” She yelled as she tried to slap me again. I don’t know what it was probably the realization that I have absolutely nothing to lose, probably the sudden realization that I now have a baby to protect, I don’t know what it was but something clicked, the thumping in my chest, the rage coursing through my vein, the sadness and anger from everything that had happened mixed up and I held her hand in place, stopping it from making contact with my face.“Don’t you dare Nicole! Don’t ever lay your filthy hands on me ever again!” I yelled as I pushed
VALENCIA’S POINT OF VIEW I can hear them giggling and snickering, I can see them pointing in my direction, whispering things to each other and then making jest of me.I hold my book closer, I try to keep my breath steady, I try not to look in their direction as I made my way to my locker. Deep breaths Valencia, deep breath, it’s tomorrow, tomorrow is the day you get linked to your mate, today is the last day you ever have to see any of them, by tomorrow your fairytale will be complete, you will find your mate and he will save you from all of this.I retreat in to my thought, I stay in my imagination. My mate, my knight in shiny armor, I will be linked to him tomorrow and my life will finally get better, my life will finally be rid of all the sorrow and pain. I was still deep in my thoughts when Lorrein and her evil gang of girls moved in front of me.“Oh look who we have here, it’s the outcast.” She said and her gang of mean girls giggled. She pulled my book out of my ha
VALENCIA’S POINT OF VIEW I looked at my aunt and cousins, I begged, pleaded, cried but everything fell on deaf ears, it’s like as if they are unwilling to listen to anything I have to say.“Please, please do not send me away with this stranger.” I cried, I don’t even know this man who is supposed to be my husband, I have never seen him in my life before, how am I supposed to love him and care for him like a wife? How am I supposed to live with him?“Th… the werewolf linking ceremony is tomorrow, I promise I will get linked to my mate and stop being a burden to you aunt.” I said again sobbing.“I want you gone today, besides No werewolf would want to be linked to you, if somehow the moon goddess curses anyone by linking them to you, you will surely be rejected and then I would have to continue taking care of you.” My aunt said with a mean scowl on her face. She is right, how did I ever think that anyone would want me? Everyone here hates me, nobody would want to be my
VALENCIA’S POINT OF VIEW “In five days you will be sacrificed to the moon goddess, in five days you shall die little wolf, this will be your room till then.” Alpha Alexandro said to me. He sat on the bed in a space so close to me.“Sacrificed?” I asked confused and terrified.“Yes.” He answered stroking my hair with his palm. I moved back… out of his reach.“You see little wolf, you have to die for me to be happy. The moon goddess requires me to sacrifice a she-wolf to her so that I will be the linked mate to the love of my life Sheila. According to her priestess I would know when I meet the right girl, I would get some sort of feeling.” He said and then paused.“You see I never felt it with the other girls but somehow I am certain that you would be the right one for the sacrifice.” He continued, looking me dead in my eyes with no sympathy whatsoever. “Unfortunately for you, you are the unlucky one. Nobody would care if an orphaned outcast like you dies so I guess it
VALENCIA’S POINT OF VIEW I turned the door knob of my room/ jail, it opened, I was shocked by this. I had not tried to open the door before, I just assumed that it would be locked because I am Alpha Alexandro’s prisoner.I opened the door and walked out of the room. I’m not sure if I should be out of the room but I also don’t think I can stay in there for one more minute.I have been really restless since my wolf showed up, it like I have to be near Alpha Alexandro to be calm, it’s like I just have to see him, to feel his presence. It’s odd to me since I have never actually wanted to be around anyone before, I have always been one to keep to myself so needing and wanting someone is a bit awkward to me. It’s probably just my wolf acting up.I walked down the hallway, I sneaked through a door, this wasn’t hard to do because there was no guard in sight. I started to hear voices of people talking, I stopped behind the curtain, scared of what might happen if Alpha Alexand
SHEILA’S POINT OF VIEW I stared emotionlessly at the stupid girl whose presence I am sure would ruin my plan, I don’t know why Alexandro has her around, I don’t know why he looks at her the way he does, I don’t know what hold she has on him but all I know is that she has to die, I…we have come too far to be taken down by this pale blondie. This beanpole would not ruin our plan.I looked at the arrow buried deep into her chest, I watch her breath starting to slow down, I watch her eye lids slowly close. I smile to myself at the sight, I sighed in relief as I watched life slowly drain out of her body, as I watched her slowly get weaker and pale.“Is she dead already.” Alec said from behind me, I had heard his horse galloping from the opposite direction, I felt it when he came closer and closer and then finally stood behind me. “Not yet but she will soon be.” I replied with a cocky smile on my face. I can imagine a smile forming on Alec’s face, now Alexandro would never fi

AMBER’S POINT OF VIEW“Please save my baby.” I heard her mutter weakly, my eyes fluttered open, I was sitting by her side, near her bed on a small chair, I had spent the previous hour just staring at her wondering what we should do, who we should decide to save. The doctor had said it earlier as if this would be the simplest decision to make in the world, like picking between mother or child would be as easy as picking between cereal or toasts for breakfast.I don’t want to pick, none of us want to, we want them both alive but according to the doctor not picking would mean condemning both of them to death because although the baby will gain all the strength he will need to survive, he would still be killed by the venom that would be released by his mother’s body. The venom that a werewolf’s body releases a few moments before death.“Save my baby… please Amber,” Valencia said weakly, her eyes held on to mine in a very feeble clasp as she stared into my eyes. I gasped startled by the so
VALENCIA’S POINT OF VIEW I feel like I am drowning! I gasp! I hold my breath! I do my best to swim but nothing is working! It’s like I keep sinking, the more I try to stay afloat the more I sink, it’s like I can’t do anything to keep the current from taking me, like I am completely helpless, like I cannot stay afloat no matter how hard I try to. I do not care much for myself. It does not matter to me If I survive or not, it does not matter if I die or live, I would not be so upset if this deep unclear water claims me. No. All I care about is the baby in my hands. My baby, all I care about is getting him safely to shore. I hold him above the water as much as I can. He is whimpering, crying, probably scared. The tears escape my eyes because I cannot do anything to comfort him, I am deep under water struggling to keep him afloat, my hands are held up with him on them, I do not let go of him, I do not bring my hands down no matter how much I feel like I am about to drown. I gasp and tr
AMBER’S POINT OF VIEW “Help, somebody! Please anybody!” I yelled as I stood outside the charm shop, looking for anyone that would help us. No one is on the road right now, the street is completely diserted. People hardly come to this part of the Outland, it is most just diserted. I cried as I helplessly walked back into the charm shop. What will I do?! Moon goodness, please help us! Please don’t let Valencia die… please save my sister. I cried, I hate how helpless I feel right now, I want to help Valencia, I want to… I want nothing to happen to her, she is so so important to me, fuck! I have to do something! But what… what can I do?! I have called my brothers repeatedly but they are both not picking up! There’s no car around or even people around for me to beg to take us to the hospital! In utter frustration, I pushed the stray hair from my face as I walked back into the shop.“Valencia, please open your eyes. Please please please I beg of you!” The tears will not stop coming down f
DELANCY’S POINT OF VIEW“I know I made a promise to you, I know I told you that I will just be your Luna and nothing more but I am ashamed to say that I have fallen for you.” I said looking away from him, not daring to meet his gaze.“Is there any way that this love of mine can be reciprocated?” I added with my head bowed low shyly. he must think I am pathetic. He probably thinks me stupid for confessing my feelings to him in this way but I cannot help it, it’s like I have to tell him how I feel just so I can… I don’t know! I don’t know what I am doing! I probably shouldn’t be here but I cannot help it, I think about him all the time, I cannot get him out of my head. Maybe there is a chance just a small tiny chance that he feels the same way about me? Maybe we are maybe meant to be and I have to be the first one to take a step in that direction? Maybe he likes me back in secret but is just too shy to say it. ‘He doesn’t like you Delancy! He made that clear to you already, You are jus
DELANCY’S POINT OF VIEWThe way he smiles just makes me want to risk everything and give in to this new feelings that I am starting to develop for him.The way he smiled at me with not just his lips and eyes but his whole heart made me feel like the most important person in the world. It was the most genuine of smiles, the most unquantifiable kindness, the most beautiful of smiles that would surely make anyone melt at his feet… anyone including me.It is getting complicated, these feelings that I have now. These feelings that I had promised that I would not have… promised? Like I can control my heart and its shenanigans, like I can tell my rebellious heart how to feel, what to feel, when to feel. I wish I could… i really do but unfortunately my rebellious heart does not listen to me, no matter how much I try to keep it in line, it just ends up doing whatever it want no matter how much my brain and I protests. No matter what my brain and I say, my heart ends up taking over and just do
VALENCIA’S POINT OF VIEW Having literally no time to dwell on the fact that Alexandro, the father of my unborn child, has just gotten married to someone else I headed for the front door of the house eager to see who this person from Alpha Dario is. Eager to hear what they have to say to me.Why has Alpha Dario sent someone to me? What is this person going to say to me? I thought to myself.I got to the sitting room and then the door.“What did they say they want?” I asked Adam who looks as bored and nonchalant as always .“I don’t know.” He shrugged and then walked away back into his room to probably get ready to go see a friend since he hardly stays in the house anymore. He is avoiding something, we are all avoiding something, everything is about to crash and burn, the thin ice is about to break and none of us want to be here to watch it happen.Amber and Nathan have not yet still spoken, we all walk around egg shells here trying not to trigger anything, we are all just trying not t
