The place where the attack had happened was just an hour away from Devon’s pack. Devon brought Kace and ten of his men with him. He left Lucas to watch over Alice as he was the strongest and most trusted Lycan he could entrust her to. He wanted to take Alice along with him, but he wasn’t sure I’d it was a safe place for her to be at. Alice insisted on following him but he declined her offer bluntly this time. He didn't want her to get shocked or afraid if things were bad in the town. That was the last thing he wanted for his mate, who is finally coping in a new environment.“Stay here with Lucas and Diana I will be back soon love” Devon placed his hand on Alice’s cheeks tenderly, caressing it, he then walked forward and planted a brief kissed on her head. before he bid her goodbye.“If you need anything, you can ask Diana” Devon glanced at Diana, who was standing behind Alice."take care of my mate" Devon said to both his Beta and Diana who nodded in unison to the Supreme Alpha's comm
“We need Lilith over here. Find her,” Devon instructed.Lilith was the head healer in the town. She was the only one who was well converesd with the black witches and their spells. She was out of the town at tha moment and she only came back to the town and people’s aid at dire times. like this. After the doctors finished their inspection, one of them walked over to Devon, who wore large frames with red fuzzy hair. “I’m sorry Supreme Alpha,but we can only treat their wounds. Only the healer can help them now. If it’s not too late by then,” He said meekly, glancing at the people who appeared lifeless on their beds. The boy who Kace and Checked of he was breathing was carried to another room where people who were dead already were kept.“Are they all dead?” Devon asked the man without sparing him a glance. he could fell his anger rising when he saw them carrying the young boy out.“I’m not sure about Supreme Alpha. They appear to not be breathing, but I can see movement in most people’
“You should throw it further” Diana threw a small stone into the lake and it caused a little tile and then bounced multiple times.Alice, who was watching attentively, tried the same thing the same way Diana had done it, but the stone only sank into the water.“How do you do that” Alice turned to Diana, with a question etched on her face. They had been doing the same thing for a while, but Alice couldn’t seem to get it. She was getting a little tired, but she found hanging out with Diana to be fun. Lucas didn’t interrupt them and only watched. Shaking his head at intervals at Diana who was acting like a child, even though she was much older than Alice knew.“You have to bend the stone slightly and throw it further” Diana demonstrated the entire process again. Making Alice nod her head vigorously and clap out loud when the stone bounced in the water multiple time. Following as how Diana instructed, Alice threw the stone, and it bounced in the water. This caused the woman and the girl
Ash and Saphira stood outside Hazel’s cottage knocking on the front door but got no answer. They had been knocking for over thirty minutes.“I don’t think anyone is home” Saphira walked to the front porch and took a sit as her eyes swept curiously around the village."can't you just like teleport yourself in there like you always do, that would be a lot easier for both of us" She suggested, waiting for him to do but Ash didn’t respond to her and only tried to look inside the house through the little glass window. Saphira sighed deeply and rested her back on the chair she was sitting on. The village was eerily quiet for her liking, and she couldn't see anyone around, which made it harder for them to ask for Hazel. Saphira knew what was going on in Ash’s mind. He was hoping he was wrong about his sister and she hoped so, too. “I can’t believe your sister is involved in black magic. You maybe, but Hazel, it’s hard to imagine” Saphira continued glancing at Ash, who was trying to look i
Devon was laying on his bed waiting for his mate, another could go to sleep, when he heard a shrill scream from the bathroom. He got from the bed and dashed into the bathroom to find Alice trembling as she stood in front of the mirror, he rushed towards her to check if she was okay. She was calling out his name, multiply times."Love I'm right here," He said softly but got no reply from Alice. Her eyes were completely dazed like she wasn't aware he was beside her. her whole body was trembling uncontrollable. Devon's eyes swept swiftly through to the bathroom to see if someone was there trying to harm or scare Alice, but there was no one, they were the only one people there. He spoke to Alice again trying to get to her but he got no response. Devon had no idea what was happening to his mate, but he had never been that scared in his life. He then carried her out of the bathroom and laid her down on his bed, hoping she could stop trembling and come back to him but nothing changed. He th
Before Alice could take the girl's hands she was awakened all of a sudden. She let out a small gasp, before looking around to see she was back in the room. She felt a hand wrapped around her waist. Alice turned and could see Devon staring straight into her eyes. The bright sunlight was invading the room through the glass windows and this indicated it was morning already. "Good morning" Devon whispered in his mate's ear and Alice could only snuggle closer to him. "Good morning" She responded to his greeting and they both laid on the bed in a comfortable silence, none of them willing to get up.Devon leaned in closer and planted her kiss on Alice's forehead head, which made a bright smile appear on her lovely face. After some minutes she finally broke the comfortable silence between them."I have something to tell you" She said softly and Devon nodded, gesturing for her to continue.She told Devon everything that had happened to her the day before and about the silver haired woman and
The most enticing scent invaded Liam’s nose, causing all his senses to become alert. What was this wonderful, flowery scent? He could feel his wolf purring in utter delight. He opened his eyes abruptly to see where the wondrous scent originated from. And behold, a lovely girl stood in front of him with her head down. It was the clumsy girl from before; he remembered. His eyes became bloodshot red. As her wondrous scent invaded his nose the more than she attempted to leave the room.“Mate!,” a loud growl erupted from the Alpha King's chest. He reached out his hand quickly and stopped the young girl in her tracks before she could leave.Joan turned around to look at the man holding her by her hands and what she saw terrified her to her core. His eyes were completely red, and he looked feral. She could feel the hair at the back of her neck stand in fear. What was happening!? How could this be possible? Her mind was in turmoil as her whole body began to tremble.“Ahhh” A shrill scream
“Leave!” Liam’s loud cold deep voice resonated suddenly, startling the already startled Joan. He turned away from her, so he could try to take control of himself and not listen to his stubborn wolf, but it wasn’t working.“Get her out of here!” He growled again, and this made Gladys spring into action immediately. She hurried to where Joan was and helped the girl leave the room. She didn’t want to face the wrath of the King.Joan was still trembling from the whole incident.. If it wasn’t for Gladys holding her up, she would have fallen to the ground. Her two legs were wobbly as she took each step.After Liam made sure that she was no longer in the room, he made his way out. Her delightful voice was invading his senses once again as he passed through the hallways. He was finding it hard not to go and look for her. His eyes were still completely red as he bolted out of the front door.Tyler hurried after him. He was still trying to process the whole situation. How could this be happenin
His words made Hazel burst out laughing. “To see me? Have you made a decision yet? It took you long enough.” She looked unfazed. “I regret it” She scoffed. “What do you regret, ever meeting me? Sometimes I regret it too. But in my heart, I don't because I loved you so much but you betrayed me.” Liam could only stare at her. He never imagined this would be the last time he would see her in this kind of situation.“You didn't fight for us. You should have, maybe we wouldn't have ended up this way.” she turned away from him. Liam stood there for a few seconds before turning to leave.When he got back, he called for Tyler and told him his decision. The news of what was to happen spread through the whole Kingdom like wildfire and everyone was happy except a few people. Joan sat on the bed with her eyes closed. Hazel was to be executed a Month from then. Hearing about her execution didn't make her happy at all. She stood up and started to pace around.She heard a knock on the door and w
"Your majesty, the people are waiting for you to make a decision,” Tyler said to Liam who was staring out the large windows in the hallway of the Palace. The people were waiting. It kept ringing in his head over and over again… The immense amount of guilt he felt was delaying him from making a decision he should have made already. It wasn't an easy decision for him to make and they all knew it but there was nothing anyone could do. He was the king and the only one who could make it. Joan stood a distance away from them staring at Liam. Liam turned towards the direction she was in when her scent invaded his nostrils. She smiled slightly at him and started to walk to where he was.Tyler saw her coming and bowed slightly at her. She nodded towards him as he walked away to give the both of them space. “You look troubled” Joan said and Liam nodded. He turned back to look outside the window and Joan stood close to him looking in the same direction he was looking at...“She told me about t
"No!” Hazel screamed out loud and fell to the ground as she watched Joan run into Liam's arms. Where did all her plans go wrong? Why! Why did this happen?“No!” She yelled and started to dark magic spells but Johnathan and Alice were on her without wasting a second. Alice brought both of her hands forward and channelled all the energy of light she had in her entire body towards Hazel, while Jonathan castes a spell to subdue her powers so she wouldn't be able to use her powers to the full extent.“Ahhhh!” Alice yelled as she let out all of her energy but Hazel was still trying to fight it with all she had. Diana came into the room to witness all of this.And started to chant spells Also to help Johnathan who was going down slowly. Ash felt pain never before as he watched his sister but couldn't do a single thing...Saphira couldn't just stand and joined in also. It was the four of them against Hazel who was fighting relentlessly.Alice closed her eyes as she felt her energy completely
Please wake up Devon I need you please!” Alice sobbed uncontrollably, as she shook her mate. She needed him now more than ever. She needed to save Joan, but her energy was so drained that she could barely do anything. Her eyes were red and swollen due to all the tears. “I can't believe Hazel could do a thing like this. This is all the moon goddess's fault. If she had just told me who their leader was like I asked none of this would have happened” Diana said through gritted teeth as she tried to use her powers to open the door of the room they were locked in but it didn't work because of the amount of forbidden magic that had been released by Hazel earlier to suppress everyone's power. But it would be different for Devon because he didn't have any magic and wouldn't find it hard to change into his lycan form. Did she foresee this? Was this why she made Devon unconscious?“What are we going to do? Joan is in danger I can feel it. I need to be there” Alice said to Diana who had no idea
Liam looked around the room that he was in and saw Hazel standing at the far end of the room. In front of her was Joan. “Joan!” He was about to run to his mate but Hazel's voice stopped him.She Brought out a knife and held it to Joan's neck. Joan looked at Liam with fear in her eyes. He didn't look shocked to see Hazel. He knew already. “I should release you now since he is here” Joan felt strength return to her body and gasped. When she felt the blade closer to her neck. She didn't want Liam to see this. He would be ruined for good if he watched Hazel kill her heart broke for him, even though she was scared shitless that Hazel would slice her throat. Gia watched from the crystal ball. She hoped Hazel would take her powers before she killed her. They needed it. She regretted handing the moonstone to her. As she was about to leave the room, the door to the Room flew open to reveal Alicia and everyone. “My powers are back” Johnathan said to Lilac. They were finally out of the spells
Ash and Saphira stood outside the tower with deep frowns on their respective faces. “I can't believe this” Saphira said. Ash couldn't believe also but it was happening and he couldn't abandon Hazel because she was his sister. He bent down and placed his hand on the ground with his eyes closed. Saphira watched as she did this, wondering what he was trying to find. He opened his eyes and looked at her. “There is an illusion spell around this place. I thought I should check for anything before we go in” He explained.“An illusion spell isn't that forbidden magic.” She said and Ash nodded confirming her doubts. She sighed and scoffed. “What has your sister gotten her hands into? I can't use my powers in a place like this. It has dark magic hovering around and you know what that does to white witches” Saphira sighed. “Should we just go in there? We can't. We would surely get trapped in the spell. I've never dealt with an illusion spell but long ago, my mother told me about it” She raise
Gia stood outside the room where Hazel was with Joan. Both her hand were fisted in rage because of what she had just heard Hazel confess to Joan. Her intuition had been right all along. She knew something was wrong somewhere and now Hazel had finally confirmed her doubt. All her life she had lived hoping that one day their great leader would rise again and make their name shine so they wouldn't have to hide anymore. But now their plans were in the wrong hands..She couldn't hold back her anger anymore and pushed the door open. “What do you mean by all that!” Gia said through gritted teeth due to pure anger. “I told you to wait outside” Hazel ignored her questions. She wasn't in the mood of listening to Gia whine about every single thing and she didn't a damn if she heard her. “Answer me!”Gia demanded as she walked fully into the room. Hazel ran her hand through her hair as she poured herself a glass of wine. “I just said it to deceive her. I didn't mean it” Hazel took a sip out of h
"Johnathan! Can you hear me” Lilac shook her mate trying to get him back to his senses but he was lost in his visions. His heart raced as he saw what was to happen.. and this time he also saw a way to avoid it without anyone getting hurt like he had seen before.He gasped when he came back to him. He turned to look at lilac who left out a sign of relief. She was so frightened that something had happened to him in a place like this. “Are you okay? What happened? You frightened me”“I am fine” He tried to get up but stumbled a little, luckily Lilac held him. “Are you sure you are fine?” She asked and he nodded assuring her..“We should get back to check the rooms. I'm fine I promise” He assured her again even though Lilac wasn't convinced. She still held on to him as they walked through the hallways. She was afraid he would stumble again. “This is the last room” she said and he nodded. They tried to push open the door to this room but it was locked. “It's locked” Lilac said and tried to
Alice's whole body began to glow brightly as an energy she had never felt before overshadowed her entire body illuminating her body from head to toe… Diana and Liam could only watch in awe as this unfolded before their eyes… The glow slowly started to die down revealing Alice with closed eyes. Her eyes flew open. “Joan” she muttered. She raised her eyes to look at Liam and then at Diana.“I think you both need to know this. Their leader is someone we all know. It's…Hazel” “What!” Diana exclaimed. Liam couldn't say a word. He was too stunned to speak. He felt guilty and at the same time confused about why she would do a thing like this. “I don't know how but she somehow got to Joan and I think Joan is in danger. She is somewhere in the tower but I don't know exactly where she is” Liam felt his heart stop when he heard Alice. His mate was his danger because of him. His wolf growled at him in worry. “We need to find her,” He said in a low voice. There was unconscious Devon with them
