Hazel."He's okay, right?" I asked as my eyes shimmered with tears however Alicia's eyes also filled with tears as her lips parted but no words came out. I turned back to my husband whom I have come to love without even knowing it. I whispered his name, "Lucian.." but he did not respond. He felt cold against my palm and his nose was snuck up together. He wasn't breathing and no matter how much I shook him, he wasn't getting up.Tears were already rolling from my eyes in numbers. I turned back to Alicia, "Isn't he a Lycan? They said he's the strongest specie, right? So..why? Why is he dead?" I demanded as my shoulders shook and I broke into a sob.I could see that Alicia was holding something back. "What is it, Alicia?! Tell me what happened to him?" "You..""Answer me!" I screamed."You...you were possessed." she said to me."Possessed?" I repeatedShe nodded and said, "You..you had no idea what you were doing."I went silent as I tried to put her words together. My memory remain
Hazel.My thighs parted in no time and his huge frame pressed on me as I continued to beg and plead however it fell on deaf ears.Logan buried his head in my neck, nibbling it roughly. I felt something sharp against the skin on my neck and I knew that he was about to mark me. There was nothing I could do. The blood I'd lost and still losing sapped the strength out of me. I felt more like an ordinary piece of paper because I do not have the will to continue living.Everything around me felt surreal and the only person that really cared for, except my sister, is Lucian and he's gone now. Gone for good.I shut my eyes tight and surrendered to fate. I stopped struggling and felt his fangs slowly sinking in when suddenly, there was an exasperated knock on the door.At first, Logan ignored the continuous knock until it developed into a bang. And somehow, I regained my will even if it was a small light at the end of the tunnel and used the distraction caused by the knock to scurry from under
Hazel.Clank! The plate I was holding slipped from my fingers and shattered on the tiles. A piece had pierced into my thigh as it broke into a thousand pieces but I didn't feel any pain.What was coming was worse."Hazel!" came the dreaded voice of my stepmother, "What have you done this time?!" I stood frozen to the spot as my body trembled.My lips parted and the words came out, "It..it was an accident, mother.""Accident?!" Anastasia appeared with her jet black hair dolled up all over her head. She rolled her blue orbs at me and said, "Sounds like you're taking out your frustration on the poor plates."I shook my head, "N-"Before the words could come out, a tight slap tore across my cheek. I held my face in pain and stared at my stepmother with tears in my eyes.It isn't the first time I'd be receiving a hit across my face, however each time I did the pain was intense and filled with hatred."You have no idea how much these wares cost, you ungrateful brat!" Mrs Byers, my stepmot
Hazel. The house was unusually quiet and so it gave the courage I needed to make quick soup for Kelly. Since I was made to do all of the work in the house, Mrs Byers had long dismissed our maids and housekeepers. The major reason was because she was running out of funds. She couldn't keep paying for the upkeep of the house and of course, she had me- their jackal and slave. I added the ingredients into the boiling water and increased the fire to get it done immediately. I did not want to think of what my fate would be should I be caught or even what would happen when the broken door is discovered. My hands trembled as I picked up the pot and poured out the hot soup into a bowl. I felt the pot slipping away from my fingers however when I remembered the consequence, I gripped it tight and set it into the sink, burning my fingers in the process. I stood for a while trying to get a grip of myself. I felt empty and faint since I have had nothing to eat for two days now. I stared at my
Hazel.An expression like shock appeared on their faces. It was the first time I refused and snapped at them. Anastasia was going red with anger and would have gotten up to hit me if her mother did not stop her.Instead, Mrs Byers turned to me and calmly said, "Mrs Parker few houses away needs a maid," she added, "I will withdraw my sponsorship of your sister and end her schooling at once! She will be better off as a maid at Mrs Parker's while you continue to keep this house."I pursed my lips, "Kelly is too young to do such a job, Mrs Byers."She shrugged, "If she wants to go to school she has to earn the money! She's aware her parents are dead and she should be grateful I took it upon myself to see her through college.""..." I stared blankly with tears streaming down my face. Ana smiled satisfactory seeing me in pain.She said, "There's no need to cry, your husband to be is stinkingly rich! You won't believe it if I told you he wired the forty million dollars as quick as lightening
Hazel.Luckily, a kind passerby helped us to the hospital. Kelly was immediately placed in the ICU while I paced outside the room door, tears streaming down my eyes.I should have signed the certificate. I shouldn't have tried running away. What if..what if something happens to Kelly? Is this the protection of my sister I promised my father? I feel so ashamed of myself.And what if I'm to marry an animal? If it's for my sister then I shouldn't have a problem with it. I love Kelly so much that I would lay down my life for her anytime, anywhere.I cursed myself. I should have thought about all of this before I took flight. Why did I act so rash and without thoughts?I was given a chair to sit but I rather stand. I just wanted to hear that my sister is doing fine. Suddenly, the doors behind me swung open and Mrs Byers and Anastasia stormed inside.Mrs Byers pulled at my hair and pushed me unto the ground, shouting at the top of her voice."You've resorted to killing your own sister, hav
Lucian. I'm back. Back to the pack I was thrown out of. Even though it is obvious that my brothers and father hates me, I'm willing to do everything in my power to win back my father's affection. My mom, the only person who ever really loved me, died years ago. I was banished from the pack because, according to my father, I'm a threat to my brother who is the next Alpha of the pack. I had more powers than him and I would usually beat him hands down when we trained on the field as kids. The only thing wrong with it is the fact that he is my elder brother and I am the youngest. Both my parents are werewolves, so I have no idea how my wolf turned out to be a Lycan. Due to this, my dad saw me entirely different from him yet I still wanted to win his trust and love. The only way I could is by finding my mate. I'm twenty-five and yet to find my mate. Since I'm desperate to get admitted into the pack again, I had to get a wife immediately and by any means. I was shocked when I saw t
Hazel.I couldn't help but turn back as I walked away with the guards. With Lucian badly injured, and without a scratch on me, I felt guilty. I was safe and unwounded because he had switched our seats and protected me in his arms.I was too shaken up to pay attention to the road. All that was on my mind was the accident. The moment he turned to me with those blazing red eyes, grabbing my wrist and switching our positions. I thought he was going to drink my blood when he stared at me with those eerie eyes and pulled me from my wrist."Luna, we're here." I heard Axel say and I stepped out of the car, guarded by three other guards. I felt secure and cared for- something I haven't felt in years.As they led me into the stately mansion I couldn't help but gaze at the interior decorations. It was out of this world, amazing and breathtaking.One thing I didn't understand is people bowing down to me and referring to me as Luna. What's a Luna? Is it a name for a human? Or could it be a name f
