Alice could only blink multiple times at Devon. She didn’t know how to react to what he just said. That wasn’t what she was expecting to hear. She felt her heart palpitating in her chest at his confession of hers. Her cheeks couldn’t hide how she felt as it showed a bright shade of crimson. Alice lowered her head and started fiddling with her fingers nervously.Devon reached for her hands and planted a soft kiss on her fingers. She couldn’t stop him as a spark erupted as soon as they touched. She liked their interactions.“But why you don’t even know me well? We just met,” she asked after some time, raising her head to look at him with confusion.Devon sighed deeply, looking for the right words to explain how he felt to his mate. He wasn’t sure even words could explain it. Was it love?. Would she be overwhelmed if he said he loved her?.“You are my world, my entire life. My world would be meaningless without you,” He said, and this only added to Alice's confusion of why he could say th
All Alice could do was stare at the unfamiliar woman. A warm smile was grazed upon the woman’s face, so she didn’t look like a threat. The woman was tall and slender. She wore a floral dress with colorful patterns. That looked brighter than her pale skin was. A few gray strands were visible in her curly hair..Kace, who turned to recieve a call, came running quickly when he saw Diana talking to Alice. He didn’t want Alice to panic.“Diana!” He called out, gaining the woman’s attention. The woman turned to where the voice came from and the smile disappeared from her face when she saw Kace.“You should have told me you were here,” Kace started when he stood in front of the woman. who looked annoyed to see him, a deep frown was visible on her face.“Can’t I talk to Luna without you butting in?” The woman asked irritably, with a glare on her face.“I didn’t mean it like that. It’s just that Luna isn’t familiar with everyone here. Luna may get startled if approached like that since she is
“What!, did you just say the child of the prophecy?” Kace asked in bewilderment. He heard about the children of prophecy from his grandmother when he was little and he always thought it was just a made up story.“What do you mean?” He added. Still confused.Not all supernatural creatures knew about the children of the prophecy. But not many believed it, as the last Children of the prophecy had died long before many were born into the world. And even fewer people knew about the promises made by the moon goddess to the people. Only The royal family was aware of this, including Devon.“Haven’t you heard about it? It’s not surprising that a dimwit like you is unaware,” Diana scowled as her hair became dark again. "I know about it! I didn't just believe it was actually true" Kace retorted.Alice stared back and forth between Diana and Kace in confusion. She had no idea what they were talking about. This was the first time she heard anything about Child or children of the prophecy. why was
Devon heard the statement and could only roll his eyes at Diana and her assumptions. “Stop with your assumption, diana" he said, and Diana gasped again. This made Devon raise an eyebrow at the dramatic woman.“I think I’m right. It’s about time he does if you have. I'm sure I'm correct this time. I have to be” she affirmed, making Kace look back and forth between his Alpha and feisty Diana.“Is she human too? That is going to be so interesting?” She laughed out loud at her assumption. She anticipated to see how Liam would act with his mate. would he behave similar to Devon. or would he reject her immediately without finding out who she was.She then focused her attention back on Alice. “Have you found out about her” Diana asked Devon, incredulously. “She is one of the children of the prophecy” Alice tilted her head in Diana’s direction in curiosity. Devon’s fingers were still intertwined with hers.“I know Diana,” Devon replied firmly, and he looked down at his mate, who had questions
Alice tucked her hair behind her ear as she waited for Doris’ response eagerly. She knew Devon wouldn’t tell her about what she wanted to know. If he wanted her to know, he would have asked her to follow them to his study. She wondered what they were talking about.“The children of the prophecy?” Doris reiterated, looking at Alice curiously with interest.“I think I heard about that as a child,” she added, trying to remember what it was about.“Why do you want to know about that? It’s just a story told to children,” Doris inquired, trying to figure out where Alice heard about it from.“I’m just curious,” Alice replied, waiting eagerly for what she asked.“Well, from what I remember about. It was written that the moon goddess Selena. will bestow upon the world three powerful children to help win an upcoming war that could destroy both the human world and our world. Without them, the war can’t be victorious,” Diana explained, and Alice listened attentively like a student, nodding her he
“What do you want to know?” Alice could help but raise her head to look at Devon. He reached out to her face and wiped the stray tear away. Kissing her forehead tenderly.“I’ve asked Doris about it already,” she replied to him and Devon looked at her curiously. “What did you ask her about?” He was curious to know what made his mate so upset.“About what Diana said,” she answered, and he nodded. “Do you have more questions?” He inquired, and she shook her head. Her stomach then growled a little as she only had some cookies, a glass of milk and nothing more.“First, I need to feed you” He helped Alice up and led her to the kitchen on his floor. The kitchen was situated close to the living room and had a similar interior to the other parts of the house.“What would my love like to eat?” He turned to the fridge at his back and took out some ingredients.Alice was a little surprised when she realized Devon was the one who was going to cook for her. She could help but smile and flush at
When they got to the stairs connecting to other parts of the house. Alice stopped walking and took a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves. Doris, who was on her way to the meeting, saw Devon and Alice at the top of the stairs. She then turned to her mate, who was standing behind her, and gestured for him to see the Alpha and his mate.“They look good together,” she commented, and Lucas nodded in agreement. Kace, who was also on his way, saw them and was relieved to see that Alice was no longer mad at Devon. He walked past Lucas and Doris and went to the meeting room to I form Diana about what he saw.Alice finally relaxed and followed Devon Down the stairs till they arrived at the location of the meeting.When they arrived at the first floor of the Mansion. Alice could hear people chattering from outside the huge mahogany French doors. Devon pushed open the doors, and Alice could see some people seated. There was a large table that was occupied by 30 to 40 people. It took up most of
Inside a dimly lit room. Only the sound of dropping water could be heard. A,” man with brown short hair and gray eyes was sitting on a chair that looked similar to a throne with another man with golden eyes staring at him with a grim look on his face.“This wasn’t the plan Ash, I lost more than ten of my men because of your crazy plan and now Devon may be on our tail as we speak,” Maximus, the leader of the rogue werewolves, spat out angrily at Ash. “Don’t worry maximus their death won’t be in vain,” Asb said, trying to calm the werewolf down, but Maximus was far from being relaxed. Because of Ash, they had to move to a new hideout out of fear of the Supreme Alpha finding them and ripping every one of them apart because they tried to harm his mate. The last thing Maximus wanted was to lose more of his men. “This is all my fault. I shouldn’t have listened to you in the first place,” Maximus stood up and walked towards the window at the side of the room.“This is all Saphira’s fault.
