CHAPTER TWENTY THREE“Thanks” I mumbled. Lucian leaned closer to me. He stared into my eyes and I could he was conflicted. Did he want to do something he was not sure about? I suddenly had the urge to kiss him. Will he kiss me back if I kissed him now? He said he wasn't going to kiss me until he knew I wanted it. Will he think I did this because of the bond and not kiss me back? A risk I wasn't ready is take so I discarded the thoughts. No kissing and making a fool out of myself.“I_need to take_this off,” I said when his closeness was doing more than just an urge to kiss him. He stepped back, away from me with an apologetic look.“I’m sorry” I quickly said and left the room. I quickly removed the gown and changed back to my clothes. I handed the gown to the lady and she added it to the rest of the dress. With Lucian’s help and a lot of coming and going, we eventually get all of the clothes in the car.“Are you hungry?” Lucian asked and I nodded. Not really but anything to spend a lit
CHAPTER TWENTY FOURMegan Fox!Was she in trouble after all alpha Lucas doesn't have the best history?“Is anything wrong?” Lucian asked from beside me. I quickly nodded telling him no.“No. It's from an old friend. Thank you for today” I said turning to hug him. I let him hug me, who knows I might be needing it after the letter I hope not. Like that Lucian and I parted ways for the night. Curious I hurriedly went to the room and locked it as I opened the letter to read the content.Raina,With great sorrow and fear, I write this to you in the hope that you find a way to help me. I found out you were taken my alpha Lucian, words have it that he is a very good man and this leaves me rest assured that you are in good hands but I can not say the same for myself. I have been with alpha Lucas for months now and he has used me up just like he had promised. I had no way of escape then and I surely don't have now. Alpha Lucas after deciding that I was of no use to him sold me off to a vampir
CHAPTER TWENTY FIVEI woke up feeling a bit sick from all the crying I did last night. What I'm I supposed to do now. Should I talk to Lucian about the the dream and also about Megan who is in trouble. Is talking about the dream important? Does the dream have anything to do with Megan and this said vampire king, I have no idea. After so much contemplation I decided that I had to talk to somebody about this and that will be Henrietta. She should be of help in this situation. I will never forgive myself if this dream has something to do with Megan. If I had talked when I had the dream but it hasn't even been three days yet. Is that considered too late? No, I shook my head vehemently. I stood up from my bed with a terrible headache but I still went about my morning routine but I made it quicker this time. I still have no wrist watch so telling the time is difficult for me. After putting in clothes I went downstairs to see if I would find Henrietta and I did.“Good morning Rietta” I gre
CHAPTER TWENTY SIX“How is she hybrid?” I asked Lucian immediately she left angrily. I had no idea why she suddenly left angrily. I was at least happy she said she would try to help me get a reverse spell so I could get to know who this Olivia girl is. “Let me show you around the pack territory and I'll tell you about Lucy. Deal?” He asked. I nod and he smiled at me. He held my hand in his as we walked away from the garden.“There is a private pool right behind the garden and there is another beside the pack house for any pack member. I ensure it gets cleaned regularly” He explained.“Lucy came to our pack as rouge when jack(I'm sorry if this wasn't the name I wrote for the beta. I tried looking through the chapters but couldn't find it. If you remember it please leave it in the comment section and I will edit it, thanks) found her” We walked past pups playing as he continued his story about Lucy.“She was bruised up from running on her feet for three days through the bushes and rog
CHAPTER TWENTY SEVEN“What?” Lucian answered looking at me. I swallowed hard, nervous to talk to him about this but I need Magan to be safe. At least I wanted to try.“I need your help,” I asked again this time sounding more confident. He walked back to my side and held my hands.“Ok. What is it you need my help with?” He asked? “Ahem_ can we get somewhere to stay?” I told him. He nodded and held my hands walking towards the field. I followed him.“Is this place ok with you?” He asked. I nodded.“Yes. Perfect” I answered as we both sat down on a bench that was there.“So what is it you need my help with”. I gave an awkward smile but he did not smile so I just stopped.“Yeah_ I have this friend, Megan. We were both slaves at the pack but she got taken before me. She wrote me a letter last night”“The one_” He cut me off and I did the same answering his unasked question.“Yes. The letter I got when we got back” I informed him.“What was the content of the letter?” He asked.“That’s whe
CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHTSometimes being bold does not mean you are not scared. Talking back at someone who is stronger does not mean you think you can beat them. Disobeying orders does not mean you are not a little scared of the consequences but what i have learned my week of staying here is know your worth to someone. I know the power i hold over Lucian Randolfr, I am his soulmate and he is Alpha. Alpha's tend to be more protective and attached to their mates and that is where I, Raina Belmont know the power i hold over Lucian Randolfr. I may hate everyone but that doesn't mean they have to know. You can use people for your own gain too.These were my last thoughts as i fell asleep on my bed.**********"Come here Raina. You belong with us, your true self is hidden and you must find it!" The man screamed at me. My fast heart beat can be heard by any wolf around because of how scared i was."what are you and what do you want with me?" I screamed back at this person standing over me his
CHAPTER TWENTY NINEFLASHBACK TO A THOUSAND YEARS AGO“Guinevere” Shivers went down my spine when I heard the now familiar voice scream my name. I suddenly became scard. Had I done something bad to provoke him? The door to his chamber flung open and my eyes quickly close shut. “Stand up” He orders and I did immediately.“What is it I am hearing about you dinning with the wolf?” He asked again. I hurriedly shook my head in protest. I dared not speak against him so I stops still as he lashed out. “Speak!” He roared making his fangs come out. I was scared. My months of working here he has never done that to me. Yes he has gotten angry but not not like this. Some even say he's nicest to me of all the slaves here. I was scared of him not because he hurt me but because of the stories I heard of him.“He_he_” I stammered tears already threatening to fall as I fell when I slipped from walking backwards .“Talk Guinevere! Answer my question” He screamed at me.“I only did as I was instructed
CHAPTER THIRTYI was already feeling sleeping and with the way the cloud was I could tell it was already close to daybreak so I closed the book and hid it under the bed. I closed my eyes for what seemed like an hour and work up again.Not trying to get some sleep I stood up and cleaned the room. Something I did every day but hasn't in a day or two. I used that as an opportunity to clean up before I went into the bathroom to bath with my new body wash and shampoo Lucian got me days before. I took my time because I knew I had woken up too early so anything to take some time off me. When I finished in the bathroom I came out to pick out a new cloth to wear for the day which wasn't as easy as before. I now have a lot of clothes and I do not know which one to wear. I haven't even had the time to arrange the clothes into the closet. That's a chore for another day. I finally pick out an outfit which was a brown sundress. I packed my hair up in a loose bun and I sat down to pick out the boo
CHAPTER SEVENTY THREEI felt air loss in my lungs. Struggling to breath I jumped awake. The room was dark. I touched the bed only to find out that Lucian is not beside me. A shadow was standing across me. I struggled to get my brain working to cast a spell. I murmured the spell Lucy thought me to use whenever I am in trouble and I don’t know how powerful my attacker is.“Shit!” The very familiar shouted. Their hands dropping on to their side. I used this chance to run to the door. Before I could open it I was dragged back. My back hitting the ground. I felt a bone crack. Nothing that won’t heal now.I held out my hand and used a spell to make only the hand of my attacker to burn. That seems to be their power source. I switched on the light with my second hand only to find Henrietta on the floor.“What the hell Henrietta? Were you trying to kill me?” I screamed at her.“What is happening here?” Lucian barged into the room. His face looking all healed.“You’re hurting her” Lucian pushed
After our big meal of deer soup and bread we gathered outside the motel because a room was too small for us to stay in together.“What’s the plan when we get back home?” Henrietta asked. “We haven’t even called your parents that we are coming back yet” Lucy added. “I’ll call them tonight” Lucian said. “Good. Now back to the issue of the heirloom” Henrietta started again. “As for the dragons we need more time to figure it out. But for the witches it should be with the most ancient witch coven” Jack said.We all made reason with his assumptions. It was definitely the only reasonable thing we could come up with. “With that being said. Which coven is the oldest?” I asked. “It should me my mother’s. She also told me about how old our coven was. It even irritated my dad a lot. “You have any idea where it is or who the heirloom might be with?” Jack asked. She nodded her head left to right. “My mother never disclosed those type of information because I wasn’t old enough and she died b
“I should call Lucy back” I loved to stand up but I stopped him“No. Let them sleep. You should get some sleep to” I told him.“How could I sleep when you’re this sick?” He stood up with the damp towel and came back with it again. He continued to press the damp towel all over me throughout the night.“What’s the time?” I asked when I noticed the atmosphere getting bright.“Uhhh_ 7” He answered.“Thank you for staying with me” i thanked him.“Anytime love. Are you hungry?” He asked.“I don’t think I can eat anything but I do feel really dirty” I confessed. “Let me help you clean up” He stood up taking some time to stretch before pulling me to a sitting position.“Tell me if I'm doing anything to hurt you more” He removed my tank top slowly to avoid it from touching the shoulder. He proceeded to remove my shorts.“Let me run the bath.” with that Lucian left leaving me naked under the duvet. He came back ten minutes later.Lucian carried me gently as we went Into the bathroom. He droppe
CHAPTER SEVENTYAfter the introductions Lucian’s father gave us a map telling us it was a special map of us supernatural beings. He said it is going to help us find the dragons when we get to the wild mountains and dark caves in Greece. It was really obvious that everyone one of us was r4eally anxious about this journey. We knew despite what we said that this trip is very very dangerous to embark on.“Ready?” Lucian whispered in my ear. I nodded after taking deep breaths.“Yes” I replied. The five of us got into the car. Jack was driving while Lucy sat at the passengers sit with him. Lucian, Henrietta and I were at the back seat of the car. The car ride was nothing special. We were all quiet probably to give ourselves some sense of peace before the chaos presented itself to us.“We’re here” Jack announced. I looked up away from my lap to see where we were.INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT and very little below it was FOR THE SUPERNATURAL. A human would not be able to see this tiny writing so I k
CHAPTER SIXTY NINEI laid in his arms for what felt like hours just contented with the oddly comfortable silence. The faint sound of his slow breath as he fell asleep.The next day came rather quickly and we had to have our final packing so we would leave for our journey in less 14 days."Good morning" Lucian greeted with a smile on his face. I groaned into the pillow the event of last night came rushing hitting me hard with a huge wave of embarrassment."Hey love" He leaned in to whisper in my ear."Can you leave first" I begged."Why? Do you regret what happened?" He sounded scared to hear my response. As much as I wanted to reassure him and make him realize it was one of the best nights of my life, I just couldn't find the courage."Yesterday was really special to me Raina and I don't want you to shy away from me because of what happened" He begged as he pulled my shoulder. Reluctantly I faced him."I'm sorry. Everything just feels so strange" I confessed."I don't want to make you
CHAPTER SIXTY EIGHT“I don’t think so” I disagreed with her.“Why not? You love him”“Because_ I don’t know. I shouldn’t say it first. What if he doesn’t feel the same way?” I asked“I know he cares about you” I sighed“I know you want to help but I want to be very sure so I don’t stir trouble” I explained another reason I wasn’t ready to speak to Lucian about it.“I understand you Raina” Lucy hugged me and assured me that everything was going to be alright.“Thank you for everything Lucy, you are the sister I never had”“We are sisters Raina”“That’s so sweet”“I guess” We hugged again. This time we stood up to make our way back inside the packhouse.“What do you girls always have to say” Lucian.“I think we’d love to leave that in your imaginations” Lucy answered leaving us alone.“So_ I’m sorry for how I acted. It was so stupid of me. I don’t know why I acted like that. I want you to know that I trust you so much and I don’t want today to affect what we have going on” Lucian rushed
CHAPTER SIXTY SEVEN“Raina?” both Lucian and I looked up to see the person calling me.“Wren?” I needed to confirm if he was the one because if it was him, he looked so different. Wren is now really muscular and his hair colour now a very dark shade of brown.“Yes” The person I now confirmed to be wren answered.“Wow, you look so different” I said with a smile on my face. My worries already forgotten.“Is this your mate?” He asked. I stared at him, in shock. He knows who Lucian is so why was he asking? I asked myself.“Yes. This is Lucian” I introduced.“Get out of the car love. I need to hug you” Still so excited and oblivious to Lucian’s reaction to all of this I opened the door and got down. Wren kissed my cheeks causing my face to heat up. There was a time I wanted badly for him to kiss me but now I have Lucian and I love him.“If you don’t mind we need to hurry and leave as soon as possible.“Sorry” I mumbled holding unto Wren’s hand as we chatted and told each other things we ne
SIXTY SIX“Wait” Lucian called after. I ignored his call as I hastened my steps but who was I kidding. I knew how fast he was. He grabbed my arm making me stop.“Hey, hey. Hey. Didn’t you hear me call you?” He asked with a frown.“Ahem_ sorry about that. I honestly did not hear you” I lied.“OK” he replied.Breaking the silence I asked “So why did you come after me?”“Yeah about that, I wanted to know why you decided to leave the table early”“Oh I’m sorry. I’m I supposed to leave last as part of my duty?” Mind you I was being very sarcastic. Why else did he want from me. Everything was already beginning to tire me.“No, no. not that Raina. I just thought you were upset” Now he sounded upset.“No I’m not. Why would you think that?” I asked.“Nothing” I gave me a ‘really’ look. Did I really think that I was going to fall for that?“Ok, fine. You leave the gathering whenever you get upset and sometimes you do not even say anything at all.” He defended.“True but I’m good” I lied again.
SIXTY FIVE“Are you ok?” Lucian asked as soon as my eyes began to open back up.“Yes I am” I lied despite my banging headache.“You do not look fine Raina. Are you sure you are ok?” Lucy said not convinced with my lie.“A little headache, I’ll be fine” I lied again. It didn’t seem like I was going to fine anytime soon.“OK” She finally agreed with me.“Take care of yourself Raina” Jack said as he left with Lucy. Ri stood up not saying anything. It hurt me but what would I say to her again? It was obvious she had some kind of grudge against me that she was not ready to let go of.“Be careful Ahriman or else you might just dig up your own grave” Ri whispered in my ear before she left. Her calling me Ahriman wasn’t what scared me but the fact that her voice sounded exactly like Abigail’s. Still unable to get over the shock I watched her as she walked away like she did not just call me Ahriman. How the hell does she know?“Did she say something hurtful?” Lucian asked. I nodded, no.“She d
