Lilith paced up and down her room. The encounter that they had just had with Freya was certainly unprecedented and unpleasant. They had planned to manipulate her into believing their lies but she had managed to somehow turn the tables on them.Lilith still remembered her words, they were clear warnings and though they sounded ambiguous and playful, Lilith knew something was up.Freya had never spoken to them like that before, ever. Though she had explained what she meant, her choice of words had been scary and Lilith was so sure that though her tone had sounded sweet, it felt like it was laced with poison.She reasoned everything carefully, putting every single detail of what had transpired into consideration and Lilith froze on the spot as the realization of what was going on finally hit her, they had been caught!Freya had found out the truth and Lilith knew that Arianna was the one that must have told her but why hadn't Freya reacted? Why hadn't she questioned their actions yet? O
That evening, they were all gathered at the dinner table for dinner."I thought I told both of you not to leave your rooms?" Freya asked with a not-so-polite stare."We just decided to come down for dinner, we'll go right back," Lilith answered while Lyra just frowned."I would have sent your food up to your rooms. Please do not make that mistake again, both of you aren't allowed to leave your rooms," Freya said, and Arianna thought that Freya overdid it because she knew Lilith and Lyra were smart girls, and with Freya acting like this, they would very well figure things out sooner than Arianna wanted."What is the matter, Freya? Why are you asking them to confine themselves in those rooms and not leave?" Loki asked."I'm surprised that you're asking this, dear. You're well aware of the things that took place today. Lyra suffered a terrible anaphylaxis-didn't the doctor say it was life-threatening? We barely recovered from the shock when the news of Lilith being poisoned hit us like a
"I know, and that's why I want to stop working with her. I feel really awful for what I've been doing to the both of you. Lyra doesn't seem like she wants to change, so I'm willing to do the right thing without her, even if it means going against her," Lilith said, and Arianna burst into laughter without even realizing it."So you expect us to really believe that you want to betray your own sister just for the sake of doing the right thing? It seems you've gone daft or something. You seriously can't fool us with such an incompetent lie," Arianna said.Lilith knew that it was time for a little change of plans."Okay, you're right. I'm not going to betray Lyra because I want to do the right thing, but because I want my revenge on her. She's only insulted me ever since she arrived, treating me like her underdog. I swear that it really makes my blood boil when she talks about claiming Loki. She has no idea how much effort I've put into getting Loki but failed.I've failed so many times th
Arianna helped Freya with all the chores as soon as possible and went to her room to freshen up for the night. Once she was done with all her personal hygiene and ready for bed, fully clad in her nightdress, a crazy idea came into her mind.She had been concerned about not being able to spend enough time with Lokj lately because of all the unforeseen battles she'd been fighting.Having had to put up with the evil Lyra and the fickle-minded Lilith all day, she thought it would do her good to spend the night with Loki-just to talk a little, sleep in his arms, perhaps do something really unplanned.A flush spread across her cheeks at the thought of it. Getting out of bed and into Loki's room without overthinking the decision, since she knew that if she had, she'd change her mind, as quiet as possible. Already knowing how hell awkward it would be if someone had to catch her snooping around his room at this late hour.She knocked gently on his door, and at her second rap, she heard his voi
Lilith was worried. Her attempts at getting Lyra to open up about what she was planning had failed.Lyra had refused to directly tell her what she had planned but only told Lilith that she would carry out her master plan during the Eclipse festival, which would be taking place in a week's time, and that didn’t really leave them much time.Lilith told Arianna and Freya of her findings, and this got them equally worried."She seems to have grown quite suspicious of me, or maybe she's taking extra precautions, but whatever the case may be, she refused to reveal the nature of her plan to kick Arianna out of the pack. She only told me she would put it into motion during the Eclipse festival, which is only a week away, and that really doesn’t leave us much time to try to figure out what she's planning," Lilith said."There's no need to try to figure out what she's planning, Lyra is way too devious, so it would only be a waste of time trying to figure out what she's planning.

The Eclipse festival is one that is celebrated every year in the werewolf world. It is a festival in which the werewolves prepare and partake in a celebration in honour of the moon goddess, Diana. It is believed that on this day, the blood moon, Diana fights all the evil; punishes all the sinners and sends all the blessings to her children to make them happy and prosperous. The moon, symbol for her, issues her victory over evil due to her purity by turning into red when evil is being vanquished. It is also believed that on the day of the blood moon, the goddess blesses all women with fertility and if any She-wolf is mated on that day, she is sure to conceive.It is a grand festive occasion for them, where every Eclipse is thought to be their national holiday of wolves, fully packed with delicious food, amusement, and entertaining games. The working schedule has been strictly restricted on that particular day, as the pack becomes one big united family.She knew this, and she would use
Arianna felt an excitement unlike anything she had experienced before. She had finally completed her university journey and had become a successful doctor. To top it off, right after delivering her valedictorian address, her longtime boyfriend, Valentin, had surprised her by proposing to her.It was an unforgettable surprise, and of course, she accepted his proposal. Her parents were thrilled for her and organized a celebration to honor both her graduation and engagement.The occasion was meant to be full of joy, and she enlisted her best friend, Maya, to assist with shopping for the party. They made their way to the mall where Arianna parked the car, and then joined Maya inside, where they began choosing dresses for the event.After picking out the most stunning dress she could find, they moved on to shoes and other essentials that would ensure Arianna was the center of attention. Though she was already a beautiful girl, the extra glamour was just to let her shine as the guest of hon
Arianna slipped into her gown with open shoulders that hugged her figure beautifully, featuring a neckline that revealed just a hint of her generous bosom.A stylist had transformed Arianna’s hair, intricately weaving one side into a braid while securing the rest in a neat bun. Maya took charge of her makeup, opting for a light yet enchanting look. Her mother held her hand, providing her with emotional support.Arianna almost chuckled at their overzealousness. They acted as though it was her wedding day instead of merely an engagement. Reflecting on it brought a smile to her face. It illustrated just how much they cared for her and wished for her happiness. She felt like the luckiest person alive, having achieved everything she had ever dreamed of. Her life seemed nearly flawless.Unbeknownst to her, a storm was looming, poised to disrupt her seemingly perfect life; the only constant was change. Her father arrived and praised her. "I feel so fortunate to have such a stunning daughter

Freya walked out of Arianna's room feeling tense, she wondered if she would be patient enough to go ahead with their plan. For all she knew, it would take everything in her not to slap her and yank at her hair the next time she saw that imposter Lyra.Freya wiped away the tears that had gathered at her eyes, threatening to fall. She was just headed to her room when she saw the traitorous pair. She took a deep breath and balled her hands into fists.Lyra and Lillith were just about to begin their little charade, completely unaware that Freya had already found out the truth."I'm sorry Princess Lila, Freya questioned you because of me." Lilith apologized, fake tears brimming at the edge of her eyes."It's OK Lilith, and when did you begin calling me princess Lila? I thought we were friends, Lila is just fine." Lyra said, the corner of her eyes fixed on the older woman that stood metres from them but could still see all the drama they were about to put on."I'm sorry but not everyone k
Freya gasped and instantly turned back to stare at Adrianna in disbelieving wonder. "Arianna, do you know what you're saying? That's such a huge allegation." Freya exclaimed, still not able to believe her ears."Believe me Freya, I want to believe it's a lie, but it's the cold truth." Arianna said, to which Freya had nothing to say, as if mulling over what she had just told her."How did you find this out?" Freya asked. Arianna signed in and started to recite every little thing that had happened that day between Lyra and Lilith."When this fake princess Lila came, I was so enthusiastic about getting acquainted with her. Actually I wasn't having anything to do-the reason being Ziya has gotten her mate a few days ago, so she's on an off.I was so shocked, seeing Lyra lie terribly about me to Lokj in disguise as Lila. She said I hurt her for no reason, extending it to hurting herself so Lokj may believe her and get mad at me.First, I was deeply hurt, but I did not take too much time to
Freya sighed as she walked down the halls of the castle, genuinely worried by how suspicious she had grown the last couple of days.She didn't know what to believe anymore, but one thing was for sure-the Lila she raised was different from the one that came back. She was like a totally different person, and it baffled her.Though she wasn't the perfect daughter or perfect princess, at least she stayed true to herself. Though at times she could get really childish, she was really transparent-a good person at heart. She was very loving if only you'd take the time out to get to know her.First, Freya had tried to ignore these changes, but the hoard of events that had taken place recently was just too condensing to ignore; she knew she had to find out what was happening and fast.As such thoughts ran across her mind, Freya collides with Arianna. Thankfully, the collision was mild, and neither of them lost her balance."I'm so sorry Freya, I really didn't see you there." Arianna apologized.
