It took two days before Micah finally woke up. I never once left his side while he slept through the days.Today was the third day and the King was holding a meeting with the council members and other ranking members.Micah had asked me earlier this morning to accompany him to the days meeting and I agreed.We both walked into the big ass counsel room and everyone kept silent as the king strolled him. If one is to look closely, you would notice the limp when he walks.He sat on his chair and I was confused, where would I sit? There was no chair next to him and all thr other chairs has been occupied.Micah also noticed that there were no empty seats so he pulled me by my waist and I landed on his lap.I gasped in surprise and other cleared their throat pretending to not have noticed what just happened. I tried getting up but Micah wasn't having it. He's wounded and I do not need to add to his pain.I sighed after trying a couple of times and rested my back to his chest. I jerked forwar
Later that evening, Davina came to i and Micah's room and then applied some strange substance on his chest and also gave him some portion to take and apply on his chest for his journey.We're currently standing outside the castle. Micah's hand was holding mine as well watched his men gather around. When they were completed, he faced me and pressed a kiss on my head."I'll be back soon" he promised, giving my hand a light squeeze before letting go. He walked towards his men who were facing him and they took off their clothes.It is known that the beasts do not care about their nudity but I still can't my gaze to the ground but when I looked back up, everyone were watching so I took it as a normal thing.The deafening sound of men grunting and bones snapping in and out of places made me wince. God, that would hurt like a fuker.Soon, the sound of bones breaking and reforming stopped and I watched in fascination as their legs turned into limbs, fingers turning into paws and their faces l
My body hurt and I can't move. It felt like my body has been buried six feet under the snow and the coldness biting into my skin.I hiss as I rolled to my side and groaned when the pain hits harder. I closed my eyes and took in deep breaths then pulled myself in a sitting position.I blinded the tears that had gathered around my eyes and wait for the pain to subside.The dream felt real... So so real to the point that I could feel it even when I woke up. I raised my hand to the nightstand and turnee on the lamp. I gasped when I saw the small cuts from the tip of my fingers to my arm.I looked over the other parts of my body and my eyes widen when everyone single skin were covered in fresh cuts that leaked blood. I swallowed and looked around scared shitless for my life.Fearfully and with shaky hands, I brought my hand to the wall and turned on the light. I released a sigh of relief when I looked around and saw that no one was watching.My right eye ticked and stinged when I swinged m
MICAH'S POVWe've being running for a day now, nonstop and i could feel the venom of the witches snake bite spreading through my body and it is already weakening me."Let's rest for the day' i said to my men through mind link and their pace slowed down to a joggle before the stopped around me ans started shifting into their human forms.The bag that was strapped to my side in my wolf form suddenly became slack as u transformed to my human.I sat down underneath a tree and picked up the bag that held the medicine Diana gave to me yesterday abd brought out the small jar that contained the brown portion that would slow down the poison from spreading throughout my body.I opened the lid and the strong smell of the portion made my nose itch and my eyes water. I hissed in pain as I applied directly on the unhealed wound, tilting my head backward so it would rest on the tree.After a few minutes, the pain subside and it felt like I could finally breath again. I looked down to my chest to see
Fallon and I pulled away from each other as the door opened. I turned around with wide eyes, my heart beating down fast in my chest."I'm naked!" I shouted to whoever was there and the door paused."I just came to check up on you" the person said and I recognized the voice from yesterday to be Beta Kyles. "I'm fine" I said breathlessly then cleared my throat and repeated the words.He hesitated, his shadow shining into this room and his grip still on the door."Okay." He finally said before slowing closing the door behind him.I knew that Beta Kyle hesitated because of what happened yesterday. He practically saw me naked and I'm sure he wouldn't do it again unless he wishes to loose his head.Both Fallon and I released a sigh of relief at the same time. I pushed my back to the wall and closed my eyes trying to calm my racing heart.I do hope Beta Kyle couldn't smell our arousal or else that would be the end of me - or rather, Fallon and I could not afford that.Not that I am in love
I never knew there were so many other mythical creatures in this world except for the mages, dragons and wolves.Within two hours of sitting here and flipping over pages, I've learned much more than I did in the last twenty years.I lowered the book that was covering my face down to my lap gently when I heard the library door open. Footsteps echoed in the calm silent room and the voices of males talking reached my ears."Be Fast!" hissed a voice that sounds quite familiar. I held my breath in fear that I might be caught eavesdropping on their conversation.I slightly tilted my head to the left to get a better view of who the Delta Leonardo was talking to. I could only see the back of the man who he was talking to and from his lanky form, I assume he's a human.They were both staring at each other and the Delta wore and expression of impatience.After a few beats, the unknown man finally spoke. "Until you give us the information that the Highest priestess needed" He said inbox scratchy
Micah's POVIt's been four days since we left the Kingdom and journeyed to the high mountains and everyday I become weaker and weaker.My men have taken notice and I fear that they might try to challenge me for the throne in my weakened state. As we kept on running in our wolf form, it became hotter and I knew we were almost there.The dragon's layer.After two more hours of running through the high mountain, we stopped about two hundred feet to the gate of the dragon king's home. We all shifted into our human forms and walked to the gates that were guarded by it's warriors."Halt!!" Yelled a man from above and I gritted my molars in irritation. No one tells the King what to do but of course I was in an unknown territory — seeking for help so I have to obey.The gate was pushed ajar and two man in dragon scales amour and a spare in their left hands came out."Who are you and state your business" The one with a very dark skin said, his eyes checking each of us from head to toe to see i
Every bones in my body were tensed and my muscles sore. I brushed my hair out of my face and with my weak arms, I pushed myself up in a sitting position.I placed the back of my left palm over my throbbing head and looked around. I was in the library.Suddenly, everything that happened earlier came crashing in and the memories of how Devina had used her magic to lure me to sleep flood in."Fucking bitch" I spat silently and groaned in pain as the massive headache hits me onve more.After massaging the spot for a while, I pushed myself up to my feet, dust the dirt that had gathered on my clothes and walked towards the door but not before looking out the window to see that the sky was really dark.I pushed the large door open and released a sigh as I walked down the hallway. I wasn't ready to go back to my room so I decided to take a stroll outside the castle.As I got to the entrance/exit of the gate, I expected to see the two guards who guard the entrance but there was no one there a
Lovette’s POV:I bit my lip as I remembered Micah’s words. “I love you my little wolf.” I smiled as I massaged my scalp with the shampoo, releasing a sigh as the spring water felt nice against my skin.It had been over two weeks since the war ended, and although it was over, Micah hadn’t come back to the castle since he and my brother were still taking care of the Dannas kingdom.Hands wrapped around me, and I raised my head out of the water, gasping and trying to push whoever it was away.“Shhhh. It’s just me,” he whispered.I paused as his hot breath hit my neck, sending shivers down my spine. “Micah,” I breathed out, spinning around to look at his face.“You’re back,” I grinned, and he cupped my face with his right hand.“I missed you,” he mumbled, his lips landing on the side of my jaw, and his other hand pulling me closer to him.I wrapped my hands around his neck and my legs around his hips. I bit my lip as I looked at his face, and he smirked, walking us to the edge of the pool
Micah’s POV“I choose him,” Lovette said, and my heart filled with love. Danna hissed, and the red snake wrapped around her crawled into her mouth, transforming her into a massive red snake.“Stupid girl!” Danna hissed, slamming her tail on the floor. I pulled Lovette behind me, trying to protect her.Drawing my sword, I aimed it at Danna, who only laughed. “You think you can defeat me?” she questioned. I had already shifted between wolf and man, enhancing my senses.I growled, baring my teeth. “We’ll see about that.”“Oh, how I’ve longed for this,” Danna hissed, her scales scraping across the muddy floor. “How king I have dreamed of destroying everything you and everything your father once loved,” she added, her voice laced with venom.Lovette held on to me, shaking with fear. I turned to her and whispered, “Run.”I placed the sword on my hips and shifted into my wolf, my eyes piercing gold. Before I could react, Danna’s massive body coiled around me, slamming me against the wall an
Micah's POVI stood at the top of a hill with my armor on, next to Hayden. We looked down at the Witches' kingdom that would soon crumble to the ground. I turned to Hayden and tapped him on the shoulder. "It's time."It was nighttime, which gave us an advantage against our enemies. We could see at night, but they couldn't. I turned around to my men, who were ready to fight, and spoke with my head held high."My brothers, today we fight not just for ourselves, but for our entire Kingdom," I declared, my golden eyes flashing with determination. "We will show these witches that our strength and courage cannot be matched and that our loyalty to each other and our land will never falter." I paused, looking at each of their determined faces. I took a deep breath and glanced at Hayden.They all roared in agreement, their spirits lifted, and my confidence unwavering. "We all know the plan, and together, we fight and we win!"They all raised their weapons in a salute to me, and with a fierce h
Micah's POV:The door to the meeting room swung open when the guards saw me. I could feel their wolves submitting fully to me, while mine puffed his chest in pride. My beta and the other war planners were all seated, and immediately stood up when they noticed my presence in the room.I took a seat at the head of the table, my hands curling around the handle, and released a deep sigh as I looked at the men in the room. My eyes landed on Leonardo, whose gaze would not move from me, but before I could speak up, my Beta did.“Alpha King,” he started, drawing my attention towards him. “What are we to do about our enemies? They keep attacking the small packs.”The others began to murmur in agreement, and I stared at them blankly. “If you think I am going to do nothing about it, then why am I seated here?”The room went silent, and the Head of the Guards cleared his throat and turned to me. “We do not doubt you, Sire, but the people are scared.”“He is right, Sire,” Andrea spoke up, her voic
Lovette's POVI and Micah were ready to leave Hayden's kingdom. I opened the door, and Hayden was standing there. "Hayden..." I said his name with a smile, which he returned."I'll miss you." He said, his lips turning down, and I couldn't help but rush into his arms for a hug. "I will see you soon, brother," I mumbled, breaking the hug, and Hayden chuckled.Micah soon joined us, his right hand wrapping around my waist, and his gaze upon me."Micah." My mate turned to look at my brother, and they both looked at each other for a while before Micah chuckled.They shook hands, and Micah spoke up. "Once I get to my castle, I will send you the plans on the war. This is our battle to fight, Hayden."Hayden nodded once more, and I grabbed my mate's hand and gave it a gentle squeeze, then turned to Hayden. "Be safe," he mumbled, and I smiled at him. "I will."The gates of the castle were open, and when we were outside, Micah turned to look at me. "You will ride my back."I couldn't help but bl
Micah's POVI jumped out of my seat with a sneer. Lovette grasped my hand with fear in her eyes as the walls shook again."Micah…" she whispered my name, and I bent a little and cupped her cheeks in mine."I'll protect you," I said to her and placed a kiss on her lips.I followed Hayden out of the room and asked him what was going on."The Witches are outside the castle trying to bring it down. Turns out they have destroyed a few of my villages too," he growled, and I scoffed."Been there."Guards were moving all about the halls, and the others kept running for their lives."What do we do now?" I questioned as we stopped behind the closed door that was beginning to break off.Hayden's guards had already gathered behind us, and he turned his head to look me in the eye. "Help me protect my castle."I smirked as I felt my wolf's excitement as we prepared to attack, but I knew better than to let her take over completely. I needed to stay in control and make sure I didn't do anything too r
MICAH'S POVHayden led us to a room where Devina quickly drew a circle with white chalk on the wooden floor. She placed candles around it, murmuring words I could not understand as she lit them up.Devina took out a cup and a knife from her bag and walked over to Hayden, who was standing next to me by the wall and kept on chanting. He nodded at her and stretched his palm towards her.She quickly made a cut on his palm and a few drops of blood entered the cup. "Step into the circle and kneel," she said to me and placed the cup and knife in front of me."Adhuc mea vox in umbra terrae audita est, sed nunc verba mea tibi salutem ferent. Per sanguinem vitae, per spiritum naturae, per arcanum potestatemque aeternam, ego te medicabo." She chanted in a loud voice and walked around the circle.I blinked, balled my hands into fists as it felt like it became hard for me to breathe. I began to gasp for air, and every inch of my body felt like lava was poured on it. I groaned and growled as the pa
MICAH'S POVI held onto Lovette’s hand while the healer tried to save her life. She wasn’t getting any better. Hayden stood by the door with a frown on his lips as he stared at his sister.I still couldn't believe that he said My mate, Lovette was his sister. Hayden left the room, and after a few minutes, he came back.“Micah,” he said my name, and I frowned as I looked at him. He is the reason my mate is on this bed, fighting for her life.It felt wrong as I left my mate's hand and followed Hayden out of the room. We stood outside the door, looking at each other, and I had my hands crossed over my chest.“I will give you my blood,” he said after a heartbeat. “Only because I know that mates can help heal each other,” he added.I frowned again. Of course, I was delighted to finally get his blood after all these months, but the only reason this was happening was because of my mate.“It doesn’t work that way, Hayden,” I muttered while tossing a strand of hair that lay sticking on my temp
MICAH'S POVI held the hand of the innocent girl, who was pretending to be Hayden's mate. It was a risky plan, but at this point, I had no other choice. I needed to find my own mate, Lovette, to bring her home and I pray that by bringing the girl to Hayden and pretending she was his mate, I could trick him into sparing my life and letting us go.As we entered the castle gates, the guards looked at us warily but didn't stop them. I felt a knot in my stomach as we walked down the halls towards Hayden's throne room. I looked around the room with a frown. Hayden and his guards were the only ones in the room.When they finally reached them, Hayden was sitting on his Throne and i looked around wondering where my mate was. "Where is my mate?" I asked him, putting on a confident front while his lips turned down. But he said nothing, instead he slowly walked towards us, his eyes locked on the girl who was now shaking in fear with her head down.Hayden watched her for a moment, his lips turned
