"Why don't you want to mark me...tell me why..." Joan said as she stared at Liam in front of her. Why had he stopped at the last second? She wanted this now... why did he take her to such height only to leave her hanging? She knew he wanted to mark her... she knew he wanted her, she wasn't blind. only a completely oblivious person wouldn't notice. She didn't care if it was the mate bond or anything else... She just wanted to know why... Why was everything different with her... Why was everything hard once it was her... Any time she wanted something so much her hopes always became dampened. She had come to accept that her life would never change and it would always be that way... But now she couldn't take it anymore.... Why must her life be that way when she could change it... She didn't understand. She just wanted to understand him. "I'm sorry Joan...I just...I don't know if I'm doing the right thing..." Liam said and ran his hand through his hair... Joan got up from the bed and
Alice sat in the courtyard of the pack, kace sitting close to her with Saphira... The witch had a neutral look on her face as she stared at Alice, her eyes slowly travelling to Alice big bump. "Is it twins?" She blurted out, not being able to keep her curiosity to herself. she was a bit bored, since She had left Devon and Ash to talk and Alice had invited her to sit at the courtyard with kace. The lycan wasn't thrilled that she had tagged along, but he had to do as his Luna had requested, and the look on kace face made her want to laugh. Did he dislike her that much, or did she perhaps remind him of Diana? Sahpira glared back at kace. She was the one who insisted they came to the supreme alpha's pack, but now she wasn't quite sure what was taking Ash and Devon so long. Where was Diana. Had she gone awol again. It wasn't even surprising. "I don't think so. Lilith didn't say anything about It, but we decided not to find out the gender till I give bright, " Alice replied, her hand
Hazel walked slowly, her face stern as she approached a village. it was dead in the night, and the road was empty, no one in sight. it was easier for her to move freely this way even if she had a cloak on. Her eyes scanned the area as she approached a house located at the outskirts of the village away from the rest of the houses. She had barely convinced coraline to let her out for a few days. Coraline was deranged and placed a spell on her. So she would return on her own afted a few days. She had to look for help before she returned. if she could just continue with the original plan of the dark witches, everything would work out fine. She just had to find the moon stones once again and then the grimoire. Then, she would look for a way to get her powers back. She had no idea where on earth gia was. Was she still in the lycan dungeons? She couldn't even go back to the witch village where she once resided as the leader. Words about her had spread across the kingdom, and she would no
"Mate! What the hell do you mean, mate?" Saphira snapped, her eyes going back and forth between everyone and then the pup. how dare this little pup call her that! Mate! to a lycan!. "Mate!" Kace said again, his eyes completely black, and he grabbed her hand. Ash looked as confused as everyone else. this was the most shocking thing he had witnessed in a while. "Let go of me!" Saphira tried to pry her hand from kace's tight grip, but he wasn't relenting or letting go of her . He was getting on her nerves now... She was about to start using her powers on him when Ash stepped forward and held her arm to stop her, but seemed to only aggreviate Kace, he Growled at Ash for touching his mate. "This is so shocking!" Devon said, He had mind linked lucas already, and his beta was on his way to the courtyard... The beta was just as shocked as him when he got to the courtyard. He had thought the alpha was joking, but it was true. Kace had really found his mate, and she wasn't a lycan, but a witc
"We can ask Diana for help. I'm sure there is a way to end... this.. and please stop staring at me like that... it's uncomfortable, " Saphira said and looked away... Why was her heart racing... she was just mad... The look in his eyes... like he wanted her and... she swallowed and scolded herself in her mind immediately... "I'm sorry... It's hard to control. " Kace apologized and ran his hand through his hair. Her scent was getting stronger... it was hard not to hold her in his arms... What was this overwhelming feeling... "You should leave...." He struggled to say and fisted his hand... "Are you alright!" Saphira said and tried to touch his arm, but the second she touched him, he let out a growl. "Please leave!" His voice sounded strained... "I should leave then..." She said and turned to leave but couldn't. Kace held her hand, stopping her from leaving. She turned to look at him and sighed... "Should i leave or not?" Saphira said, trying to keep her anger in check. she had
"Twenty-seven, Twenty-eight... Twenty-nine, " Lilac counted in a low voice as she continued to watch Johnathan in his zoned-out stage. She wondered where he was now. was he seeing a vision again. she couldn't help but worry even though it hadn't even been up to a minute. He had warned her not to touch him when he was like this, so she wouldn't get drawn into his visions like in the past, but it was hard to overlook. Her cell phone rang, gaining her attention, and she immediately picked it up and saw that it was a call from Devon. "What do you want?" Lilac said in a kind of harsh voice. she knew anytime he called something was happening or something was about to happen. most times, it wasn't good things, but things that would only increase her worries... She got up from beside Johnathan and walked away so she wouldn't disturb him. "I just called to ask if you have any idea where Diana might be?" "No, I don't know where she is. Does anyone ever know where she is? what is going on? D
"I came here to see if you were okay," Lilac said in a low voice, her eyes on Johnathan. Why did he keep looking at her this way? "Your Highness," Johnathan said, and Lilac became even more concerned. "Johnathan, " She said, his name softly, and took a step closer to him. This only made him take a step backwards away from her. why was he acting this way? "Did something happen here? I was worried about you. " Lilac was getting concerned now. He felt unfamiliar and not like her Johnathan. It scared her... He took a step towards her, and Lilac was the one to take a step away from him now. "You are not my Johnathan," she muttered, wondering what had happened. He looked just as confused as she was..."How did you get here?" Johnathan asked, and Lilac shook her head, unsure of if she should tell him. Johnathan ran his hand through his hair, slowly realising what was happening. "Am I your mate?" He asked, and Lilac became even more scared and confused. "What did you do with Johnathan?" Lilac
Liam and Joan sat at the back of her house, her head on his shoulder. it was almost sundown, and the last twenty-four hours had been the best time of Joan's life. it felt like a dream... A dream that she never wanted to wake up from. they were finally together and They loved each other... And they were always going to be together. she chose to black out what was to come and the danger that may arise at any time... She just wanted to enjoy the moment while it lasted... "What should we have for dinner?" Joan said in a low voice and tilted her head to look at Liam. he had a warm smile on his face, and it was well contagious because she smiled too... "Anything you want," Liam answered, and she nodded. Anything she wanted... "I'm not hungry. are you?" Joan replied. Even though she was a bit hungry, she lied because she just wanted to stay like this for a few minutes more... "No, I'm not." She wasn't the only one who liked this position. "Do you want to go for a walk then?" Liam added,
Joan turned to look at Liam, who was fast asleep beside her... she couldn't even bring herself to wake him up and tell him about what had just occurred... she got up from the bed and walked straight to the balcony of the room. Her heart was still racing like crazy... the thought that Hazel was still out there and definitely planning her revenge made her feel sick... She stood there for a while and let the night wind blow towards her... what was she going to do? How were they going to defeat Hazel this time... it had been just a slight chance the last time... "I need to learn more about my powers," Joan muttered and sighed deeply... She was completely wide awake now and knew it was useless trying to go back to sleep after such an event... she closed her eyes and took a deep breath... she had to explore her powers more and put them to good use... The last time when she stopped Hazel, she had trapped Hazel in her own memories... was there a way she could manipulate into what she w
Coraline tapper on Hazel's shoulder, who was seated up with her eyes closed. she looked like she was asleep, but Coraline knew all too well that she wasn't asleep. "Hazel!" she gritted her teeth in rage and tapped on Hazel shoulder, but still didn't get a response. she drew a chair and sat opposite Hazel, waiting for Her to get back... "She must really hate her." Gwen, who was seated across the room with a glass of wine, said.... she took a sip from her wine and smiled... "You know she reminds me of you a lot," Gwen said to coraline... Coraline glared at her old friend. "How does she remind you of me... she is stubborn and doesn't listen. " Gwen chuckled and shook her head... "Yes, like you," She said, and coraline shook her head... "I wonder why she can't just leave them be since the king wants to be with his mate," Gwen added and sighed... "If it happened to you, you would have reacted worse, gwen... she might look strong on the outside, but what happened seemed to have ruined he
A beautiful woman with mesmerising red eyes and dark hair walked into the living room where Coraline and Hazel were seated. Each step she took screamed out elegance and confidence....She had pleasant smile Immediately she saw them seated and said "Coraline" in the sweetest voice even. Even her voice was different, Hazel could tell she was different breed when she saw her. Her difference was screaming at them. She stood out.... "Gwen!" Coraline said and stood up...She gave her friend a warm hug and Hazel could only watch and wonder where the two had crossed paths... Gwen's eyes darted from Coraline to Hazel when they Broke their hug and coraline Immediately introduced the two woman ... "This is Hazel"Hazel stood up and stretched Out her hand for an handshake "Hazel, your name sounds familiar... are you the same Hazel who tried to kill the king here" Gwen said and Hazel felt like she had been slapped on her face...What the hell did she mean! "Oh you must be her!" Gwen looking excited l
"How will I make Epheba's power mine?" Hazel said, and Coraline smiled... "First, we have to find out where she is, but the king may try to stop us from finding it... I'm sure he has people out looking for you. " "The king has no way of stopping me this time!" Hazel said in a firm voice and opened the boom, but coraline dragged the book from her hand and closed it. "Relax or you might ruin everything... what will you do if Epheba overpowers us. we have to think of a plan before acting out like you are right now. calm the hell down. " Coraline's word seemed to work, and Hazel sat down... "How long do we dark and black witches have to live in hiding like we have some infectious disease..." Coraline sighed and shook her head. "I know it's infuriating, but that doesn't mean we have to act rashly. Tomorrow we leave for Rusvil, " She said, and Hazel turned to look at her with slightly wide eyes."Rusvil!" "Yes, Rusvil! the place you were overpowered by those lycans is still a place tha
Johnathan and Lilac walked out of the doctors office hand in hand, and Johnathan couldn't stop himself from smiling... He had never felt like this before in his entire life... The feeling was priceless.. He was shocked at first, but after the doctor had assured him that their baby and Lilac were fine, that shock was soon replaced with a type of happiness that made his heart race so much... it was hard to explain, but his heart raced... He glanced at Lilac and then at her belly that was still flat... their baby was really in their.... He or she would be here in just a few months. They didn't have a lot of time left anymore...He had to choose a room for the baby, what would the baby wear... They had a lot of things to do now... He stopped in his tracks, and Lilac looked at him a bit of confusion in her eyes... "We are not telling anyone yet," She said firmly when she thought that was what he was thinking about... Johnathan looked around to make sure no one was watching before he disappe
Lilac propped herself up with her elbow and sighed. she didn't know how to feel about Jonathan's reaction.. She didn't even know how to feel about what she it... She was shocked as she was, but she couldn't ignore it anymore and thought it was time for him to know instead of hiding it from him any longer. "Are you sure?" Johnathan managed to say after almost a minute, and she shook her head. Lilac shifted and placed her back on the head wood of the bed. "I'm not completely sure, maybe about seventy per cent." She ran her through her hair and sighed again... "I'm sorry... this is really unexpected. " Johnathan immediately took her hand in his."Why are you sorry... you don't have to be... we will see a healer first thing tomorrow, okay?" He said softly. She nodded and laid back down. She was wide awake now staring at the ceiling of the room. She knew Johnathan was wide awake now, too. she had given him something to think about through the entire night. Alice, baby, on the way during a t
"Everyone Seems to be happy right don't they. they have a baby on the way... The king has his luna, but here I am living my life in rage of what they did to me, isn't it funny" Hazel said as she had coraline stood at the balcony of Coraline's house. It was dark outside already and it was a particularly cool evening. "You chose to live in rage, nobody asked you to" Coraline said and chuckled a bit. "if you know you were going to be like this then you should have killed them when you add the chance. you had many chances but you wasted them plotting and extravagant revenge. you lost all your allies because of that and now you are sitting her with me." She continued, not caring if her words were like a knife to Hazel... "if I were one of your allies I would be plotting for a way to kill you and not the lycans. you do know you deserve whatever is happening to you right. So let me put this simply. You are mad because your Ex found his mate and wants to be with her not you. you wasted the
Lilac's eyes slowly fluttered open and was met with the white celing of the guest room of her brothers pack. Where was she? She slowly turned and saw Johnathan still unconscious beside her, and then she saw Lilith, who was slowly dozing off... "Lilith," Lilac said. Her name softly and the healer eyes flew open. She became wide awake. "Your highness!" Lilith said and stood up. She immediately stormed out of the room to call the king and Alpha before Lilac could say anything to her, and Lilac sighed deeply. Johnathan slowly started to stir, and his eyes fluttered open too. "Where are we?" He asked, and Lilac answered,"My brother's pack. " She got up from the bed and Johnathan got up also and followed her out of the room. They met Alice on the way out of her room too... "What about joan" Alice said and then they all saw Joan climbing up the stairs with Devon, Liam and Lilith... "You are all awake" Devon said in relief... Lilac stepped forward a deep frown on her face, she needed immed
Diana carried Lilac to the Queen Lilac immediately stopped crying, causing both women to smile at one another. "When should we start, the king will be back tomorrow morning so we have to leave soon" The Queen said and Diana stood up and disappeared in the back room of her house. she came back with a smaller book in her hands and started to flip the pages till she finally arrived at the page she was looking for. "From what his written here, they will be born once again, but this time each of the children of the prophecy will be mates to the children of the Royal family, so they can be protected... We have to make sure Devon is the first" Diana said and fhe Queen turned to look at Devon who had immediately hid behind his mother when Diana mentioned his name... "its okay darling don't be afraid, Diana here just wants to help you, so you can wait till you find your mate... Don't you want to find your mate" Little Devon turned towards Alice again like he could see her before he nodded and
