Danika's POV.

-

We stand apart outside the shop and every woman who walks into the shop fusses over Charles who fixes a forced smile to welcome them in. I keep a leveled look his way out of the corner of my eye. Noticing how his superficial smile twitches each time he flashes it. So fake, yet it stirs me so enviously.

What I would give to have him directing one my way.

I shrug nonchalantly, pretending not to care along with my mindless exhale as I brush my gaze over the busy street. I slip my hands into the back pockets of my jeans. You never know when I might just grab him and bid the scraps left of my chances with him goodbye forever. I can’t be too imposing and rash with him.

Mulling over my thoughts, I duck my head to make a discreet glance his way. Only that our gazes clashes and while he quickly averts his to look the other way, I frown.

Okay, I know he’s the one who’s been offended and he has all the right to choose not to listen but, really? Does he have to be so obvi

I watch after their gait and turn away to see Charles adjusting his maroon Blazer and arranging his combed-back hairstyle as he steps closer."Hey," He greets casually, bright eyes latching onto Liam whom he comes closer to gently caress his hair.I cheekily tilt my head as I poke a tease at him, "So, what did you get for me and Liam?"He makes a short laugh as he meets my eyes while smiling subtly to say, "I'm bringing you guys to Ina after we drop the girls at school.""He goes by Sam, and we've only got two days before they leave for their trip."He divulges something else of dire importance as he skillfully detaches Liam from me to latch onto himself, making me frown with jealousy to glimpse at the happier expression the baby makes.With his attention on Liam, he furthers, "I believe he's the first of your tr

I sense no harm inflicted on her and it makes me relieved to know they didn't raise their hands on them."Tell me," I say once I'm close enough and I squat before her who frightfully pulls back to glare spitefully at me. "Where's the boy?"I raise the document to her face as I ask sternly, combating my emotions to keep my composure from breaking. It's taking all in me not to slip and gi

    Danika’s POV.-“What? Don’t just stand there and give me that look,” I say sternly with a hairband clutched between my teeth as I stare at Charles standing across the island counter. He looks at me with bewilderment, lovely blue eyes with astonishment, and I huff and avert my eyes.Suddenly, he’s leaning forward with his hands flattening over the countertop to pass in alarm across to me, “Are you crazy? Do you even listen to yourself?”Snatching the hairband from my teeth, I growl at him to ward him off, but he deepens his frown at me. ‘You can’t keep bullying him all the time as you please, Dani,’ Violet sniggers at me who puffs my cheeks with a shameful blush as I turn away from him to tie my hair in a ponytail.“Don’t turn your back on me, you have to listen to me.”Lowering my arms and shrugging, I don’t obey him and instead, ignorantly pick up the paper document on the main counter next to the microwave. I hear him sigh behind me and smile as I listen to his footsteps

How did you get past the security?-“Noah doesn’t even pay him an ear as he turns around to face me, his cool eyes regarding me steadily. I make a face that shows my puzzlement, not sure what he wants from me when he calls me forward, simultaneously snatching the blond man by his neck and forcing him on his knees with little exerted force.“Dad!”“Honey!”With a simple look from Noah, the rest of the family stick frightfully to their seats while the man groans, on his knees with Noah’s iron grip clapped around the back of his neck and his gradually protruding claws piercing into the white skin of his rapidly pulsating neck.Meeting my wide eyes with his cool ones, Noah repeats a familiar line that incites Violet to do something untoward which I might regret later.“He’s yours for the questioning.”I zip forward spont

That's until Liam's cry forces us apart. We separate abruptly. Charles clears his throat and keeps his face away while pretending to adjust his ashen Blazer. I flush simply and turn around, hastening to go attend to my baby boy. Done breastfeeding Liam, he shows me a gummy smile as I walk out of the bedroom and back into the living room. I pull his chubby cheek tenderly as I tease, "You don't miss your sisters, do you? They're having fun at their sleepover without you."His innocent laugh resounds in the air, making me smile with adoration. It's almost an effective charm to ward off the lingering shadows of my misery. If only I didn't hurt so much at the moment. I feel unfair like I shouldn't try to muster happiness in the slig

Charles seems to understand my message and he releases his grip on me and I turn around, walking up to the round man wriggling on the floor.Weeping like a baby as he clutches his bleeding right hand with three of his fingers twisted in very painful ways. It's such a churning sight that elicits no form of sympathy from my steeling heart.Ha, I might make a thing out of this unusual role of mine. What was it called again? "I'll take it you've been briefed about what we've come here for," I start to say, taking my stance in front of him as I cast a derogatory look down at him.A detective?The sniveling man grimaces and grunts, dragging his large body over the ground, and strenuously lifting his head to regard me with his face a nasty mess and his brown eyes with resentment."This won't

As if sensing the drastic descent of my mood, I watch how they both stop suddenly, and as I attempt to compose my false countenance and ask them what's wrong, they stun me when they both come racing toward me out of the blue.They both embrace me, their charge pushing me back a bit as I blink down at them with surprise. Looking up at me with their arms wrapped tightly around my legs, I hear their emotional voices flare in my mind.'Mommy, please don't cry anymore. We know you did your best to find our brothers and sisters.''You're making us sad too, our brothers and sisters wouldn't be happy to see you like this.'Acting stunned right now will only be self-deceit.

She's never been engaged before but she's naturally honed with the basics."I blink when Noah reports that to Charles who hums with pleasure and he says while striding towards me, "She's always been a tenacious one. Her spirit never dies."Praised by my mate!I begin to act giddy and pompously put on airs as he closes the distance to propose a hand to me. He beckons, "Can I help you to your feet?"I tune down my giddiness to receive his hand, watching how naturally mine slips into his that grabs onto it softly. It's such a nice feel, I could be lulled to sleep just like this. "You're not going, are you?" I hear Noah ask when my mate pulls me up to my feet. My legs wobble and I falter, falling against him who grabs my shoulders quickly.This is embarrassing. I clench my teeth with my face super hot. Stuck staring at the checkered shirt he's wearing, I hear him chuckle as he says in a mirthful voice, "Nah, I'll take

I settle down and look between him and Mao before lowly asking again, “He fought with them?” “It’s not uncommon among us, you know,” Mao starts to say in a rather calm tone. “Especially among Alpha families. If there are sons and daughters, or even just a son, it’s a test the son has to carry out to determine if his sister’s mate is worthy of her.” I bite down my protest and frown. “Ludis isn’t just any wolf, he’s an Alpha male and of the heterochromatic bloodline,” I argue defensively and Kashira shrugs, “I admit all four of them were powerful and Ludis didn’t make it out without a few bruises.” “But the kid won, and the princess is his,” He cheers, munching his dish of Chow Mein. Doing well to quell my argument as I growl stubbornly and Mao smiles at me. “This is great! I haven’t been to a Chinese restaurant in ages.” “Eat up and leave,

The Faeries who’ve helped me into my bedazzling nature-enchanted gown stare at me with confidence, trying to restore my timid brave spirit as I shut my eyes for a moment.I feel his soothing palm brush over mine and his tender voice speaks to me, “Do you want to sit down for a minute and pull yourself together?” Then he takes on a sarcastic edge, “Or I can just go out there and let them know you’re not up for it.”I growl and snap my eyes open to glare at him who smirks at me, poking between my brows as he says, “Yeah, that’s it. We can start from there.”Thanks to his tease, I’m a bit annoyed and I use that emotion to shake myself out of it. Ridding the unwanted anxiety and uncertainties that latch onto my frame and heart. Grabbing the bodice of my shimmering gown, I step forward.“I’ve kept

Although it might seem as if Emma’s so smitten as she fusses endlessly, running her trembling lips, blinking her eyes, nervously fiddling with her hair, and unable to tone down the heat resplendent on her face...Taren is keeping cool about it but, it’s evident that he enjoys the reaction he’s eliciting from her.I don’t want to be privy to what they’re talking about. I muster a small smile, watching them a little longer as I feel a familiar presence close in on me. When her trembling fingers try to touch her hair, Taren beats her to it, sleekly sliding his fingers against hers to tuck it behind her steaming ear. At that stunning action, their gazes meet and hold for a moment before Taren averts his to smirk a little while Emma palms her face.“She’d never let Lian hear the end of it. But here she is, acting so silly like a girl experiencing her first love.”I raise a brow at Elaine who grins at me, only to have me deb

I groan in my sleep, rousing sluggishly along my slow turn over. On my back with my hand rustling the sheets in search of my mate, I frown and open my eyes. I jump out of bed, pick up a random shirt from the floor, and pull into it along my exit.“Now, don’t look gloomy. It was never a home for you.”“Still, it’s where we grew up. Have a rethink, Christian. You’re making a hasty decision.”Found him. Wearing a gummy smile, I embrace him from behind, pressing against his bare back and snaking my arms around his waist as I drag my forehead up to his shoulder. He probably sensed me coming, that’s why I don’t elicit much of a reaction from him. I want to place my head on his shoulder but find Liam staring at me with heavy drowsy eyes.“Why you this little...” I whisper at him and his hazy eyes clear to revive a grin. Liam pecks my nose

Aunt Sue raises the Elf’s head onto her thighs and stares at him with a form of sadness I don’t understand. I watch them with scrutiny, how the Elf barely moves with his breath fading fast while Aunt Sue takes his numb hand in hers.“Sue...” He rasps, his voice almost just air. But she hears him, and so do I as I keep away. “...I’m sorry I couldn’t...go back to you...properly...”The little life force inside of him disappears after he says that. Aunt Sue hugs his head to her chest, trembling softly as she mutters in a shaky voice, “The times you did...they reached me.”‘Seems like they had something going on in the past,’ Violate ponders while I just stare at her as she slides her palm over his eyes to shut his eyelids. She gently guides his head off her thighs to settle on the floor as if he’s only sleeping.“Every sinner deserves even one person to mourn them.”I push forw

In a flash, Elizabeth and Chestnut fall over the handrail and Grandma Bo breathes her last. Shock stuns me in place, with eyes spreading wider each slowly ticking second as I remain numb and unperceptive for a moment.“Watch them die.”It all rushes back into me in an instant. The ravenous and black rage that consumed me before, sets my being ablaze in a breath. I leap over the handrail, going after them. I don’t see Chestnut. Elizabeth is still in her bind and I catch her when she’s just an inch from the floor.“Your Highness! This is the worst to have happened.” I hold my sister close, barely succeeding at holding my rage to force a turn around so I can see Tara and my mate. I see Chestnut is with my mate and I hand over Elizabeth to them.“You all should leave...help Yi Wen...and get the Tuyens out of here,” I manage to growl, the last r

Only to growl ever nefariously at the face of my grinning enemy standing across from me – with the stolen Grimoire in hand.“Heh, think you’d get me so easy?” He grins diabolically, intentionally hinting at the large black voluminous book in his hand. “I commend your prowess for making it this far, but this is as far as you-”Cut to the chase already. I ain’t got time for pointless blabbering!I’m onto him with a breath, working my maw aggressively, pounding my hefty paws here and there, breaking the floor and sending tremors through the walls- it’s now it comes to me. This is no longer the haunted maze. We’re inside the Tuyen’s mansion. What a sneaky game indeed.I snag him with a swing of my left paw, smacking the side of his head to send him smashing through a wall. The result isn’t gratifying, it only burns my fury

You’re not thinking of rushing off, are you?” Taren questions behind me as we sprint back to the car. “Persuading me won’t work, Taren,” I cut him off coldly. “You heard that thing as clearly as I did.”We get to the car and I briefly turn to face him as I drop rustily, barely keeping my tumultuous rage in check so I don’t snap at him, “I don’t need your help to go save them.”I grab the handle and yank the driver’s door open, zeroing my smoldering orbs on my mate as I give the command, “Move over to the passenger seat.”They all regard me with surprise, Charles blinking at me like I’m someone else. He frowns and attempts to challenge me, only to flinch at the realization of something and lean worriedly towards me. “Is something wrong? Why do you look so angry?”“We’re only wasting valuable time,” I swat his concern aside and use my ability to make the shift happen. I snatch control of the steering wheel, startling my sister to prote

I cringe at the reek of heat oozing from my body as I enter the Pack House with my mate behind me. It’s hard not to inhale the stench, and it’s driving me crazy. “Sparing with Alpha Vyin and Ludis for over three hours sure is taking its toll,” I grumble with a crumpled face. I toss my face aside as if I can detach my soul from my body, inadvertently robbing myself of sensing where I’m heading. That’s when my right foot bumps into something and my body lurches forward with a yelp. “If you were going to become this grumpy, you shouldn’t have chosen to spar in both wolf and human forms.” I cringe pathetically at the flat tone of my mate who’s saved me with an arm around my waist. “We don’t have much time,” He begins to say after helping me straighten up. “You go freshen up, in the meantime, I’ll go get the kids.” It’s day four already, and to
