Alice tried multiple times to leave the lake, but it was all to no avail. She got pushed back each time. How was she going to get back into her body? She knew how worried Devon could get. After trying multiple times again Alice gave up and walked towards the bench she sat down hoping that something like a miracle would happen.She was also hoping she would use this opportunity to see Joan again so she could ask her many important questions. The night was getting colder as the cool breeze of the evening gushed towards the leaves of the trees. A woman with silver hair walked slowly toward oblivious Alice. She was dressed in a completely white flowing dress from head to toe, and her neck was adorned with silver beautiful jewelry. "Alice" She called out to the young girl softly. Her voice was like that of the night wind, peaceful, without no malice. Alice turned around abruptly out of fear to see the same silver-haired woman walking or rather flowing towards her. She stood up hurriedly
I'm sorry Supreme Alpha '' Kace apologized as Devon played Alice on their bed. Diana who was behind Kace only rolled her eyes. "She will be fine," Diana said, trying to assure both Devon and the sorry boy. Her words were ignored by the two of them, not surprising her anymore.Lucas came hurriedly into the room some seconds later. He was informed by Doris who saw Devon carrying his mate back into the mansion."What happened?" He mind-linked Kace who had worry lines etched on his face. Kace turned to him. He explained everything to the beta who could only sigh.Kace felt like everything was his fault, Even though Diana knew Diana should be blamed, he shouldn't have believed Diana when she said she could bring Luna back. but he knew this wasn't the time for anyone to be blamed. Diana, who was looking at Alice, noticed something strange when her eyes landed on Devon's hand. She saw what looked like an odd scratch. Devon was a Lycan and a scratch on his hand would have healed immediately
"Devon…" Alice called him softly, his name grazed her lips with longing. , she wanted to run toward him and flung her arms around his neck.Devon kept his eyes on her and a disturbingly eerie feeling crept in the air as Alice's heart refused to feel anything but scare."Devon''Alice called out Devon softly again but got a growl as a reply instead. His mind was in complete chaos. What had happened all of a sudden?. He even slept on the same bed with her, but never had be once lost complete control of his wolf. "Don't come any closer!" He growled, trying to warn Alice, who was stepping forward and closer to him slowlyThis sudden outburst startled Alice and made her take a step back unconsciously, yet this little action was regarded with another snarl as loud as the first one. His wolf wanted her to come closer and not back away.Alice couldn't figure out why Devon suddenly gave her that reaction or what he wanted. She didn't understand that Devon was going crazy as she walked closer t
As Lucan and Kace approached the lake a strong smell of blood assault his nose.When Devon's came into their view, their eyes bulged out of their socket at the horrible and horrendous scene before their eyes.Diana gasped loudly and covered her mouth to stifle her scream, while Kace rooted to the ground with pale face.It was Lucas, who stepped forward and approached their Alpha.Sitting on the floor was Devon, His broad back was facing them as he cradled Anna in his strong arms.Alice was slipping in and out of consciousness, she could feel her blood, seeping out of her neck profusely and see could also see Devon's face contured in pain. Alice knew without a doubt that what had happened wasn't Normal. Devon would never purposely hurt her. She wasn't to tell him, it wasn't in fault but she couldn't.Alice could only whimper as Devon held her in a tight grip. We then passed out after a minute only then did Devon release her a bit. He came back to his senses, when he realized what he had
If Devon continued to lash out his emotion toward Diana now, he would lose Alice in the process and it wasn't something worth risking. There was still time to save her, if only he would let go of the tight grip on her neck.With a brief glance of the pool of blood on the ground, Devon released Diana's precious neck from his deadly grip."Something happens to her and you will suffer fate worse than death." Devon stated grimly.The only reason Devon Diana linger around after what she did and said, was because her life still has value for Alice.Diana rubbed her sore neck and cleared her dried throat while gasping for air, greedily breathing to fill her empty lungs.After she felt slightly better, Diana moved closer toward Alice in Devon's arms.The witch touched the wound and chanted in strange language, a spell. But, after a few seconds, her brows creased unsightly.Her eyes widened as they traced back to Devon's eyes which were still completely rex, horror filled them. "oh no, You al
A week passed since Devon was out of reach and three days for lucas along with Kace to not attend many important meetings regarding to the pack.Jack, one of Devon's most trusted men was pointed out as the person in charge when the three of them couldn't be reached.Many people in the company had known him, though his role wasn't as significant as Kace, most of the employees respected him to some degree.However, the upper echelon didn't have the same thought, as they kept demanding to know where Devon was, or at least they could talk to his Beta.As the decision maker, Devon's presence was very important, so how could he disappear for days without announcement?. The black witches were still loose.This fact stirred up dissatisfaction from some of the shareholders and also an opportunity for Jared, who everyone thought was long gone to start a fire.It had been three days since Alice had lost conscious because of the mark that Devon forced on her.Lilith, the healer in Devon's pack, h
"I first noticed a wound on your right hand, the day when Alice passed out at the lake. It was an odd one, and since you are from the royal family I thought it couldn't be silver. It had to be something more, I suspected it to be wild sprout, but it was hard to come by in the human world. Which only left the option of wolfbane. I should have taken it more seriously and done something in time. This wouldn't have happened" Diana blurted out everything.The witch thought the Lycan would at least roar or tried to strangle her to death because of what she did, but to her surprise, Devon only glared at her before he resumed staring worriedly at his mate.At least, if he was about to go berserk, Diana would help him to let out some steam. She preferred the angry Devon rather than this kind of Devon, who was staring blankly and lifelessly at his mate, as if his spirit had evaporated into thin air.Devon didn't know how to respond to that information, as he remained silent as though he heard no
10 DAYS EARLIER…Liam caught Joan just in time as she fell to the ground. Her wondrous scent was still invading his senses, but he was in complete control now. "Your majesty!" Tyler and Gladys stood in the hallway, staring a Liam and his mate.Liam ignored them and carried in mate swiftly in his arms. Before turning away and heading towards the stairs. Tyler went and Gladys trailed after him hurriedly.The king carried his new found mate, to his room and placed her slowly on the bed. Her face looked so calm and relaxed, that he wanted to caress it. But the idea of her freaking out again if she woke up discouraged him.He barely drew a chair close by to the edge of the bed and sat on it, staring at her curiously."Who is she" Came his deep, cold voice. Gladys who was behind Tyler quickly walked forward to answer the king. Her head was bowed down slightly to show a sign of respect."She is Joan, your majesty. A human girl. Who I helped because she needed work" Gladys explained."And h
