His eyes flashed red as he turned to me. I screamed loudly and fell back on the dirty ground. I crawled back seeing him advancing towards me. “Who… who are you?” He stared at my hand, the blood on it tempted him. His sharp fangs were scaring me to the core. I knew what was about to come. I looked around but nobody was there! Naomi, where are you? I gulped my saliva and tried to use my magic but in the next second he pulled me up and slammed me across the tree in his vampiric speed. “Leave me!” I thrashed around in his hold but he just snapped his canines at me. My eyes widened when I predicted he was going to suck me.“Stop your fucking greed and pull her along, Vin. We have no time.” A voice stopped him from attacking me and he growled in protest. I looked around and realised that there were another three guys too. He nodded unwillingly at his vampire buddies and pulled me along with them. I hid my injured hand in my jacket to save myself from these bloodsuckers. “Iam telling y
“You know how much I love you, right? Take care of yourself and don't trust anyone easily, don't let anyone exploit you, my baby. You are much more than you think. Wait for me! I will come back soon! Wait for me!” “No, please Mason! I don't have a good feeling about this battle….don't go! Papa already went there and now they are sending you too….” Mason smiled and kissed her forehead.“Nothing will happen to me… I promise!” ...“Ali, open your eyes, sweetheart! C'mon Try it…” Allison’s eyelids moved slowly as she heard a few familiar voices whispering in the background. “She passed out from overwhelming emotions and now is stuck in recalling some past memories.” Allison could hear the faded voice of Felicia. “She always brings problems around and she dared to try to escape. Fucking fool!” “Shut up, Lola. It's not time to utter your tauntings.” Rebecca scolded her and gestured to Felicia to help Allison to wake up. Felicia sighed and nodded before touching Allison’s forehead w
Allison swallowed and clutched her brother’s arm and thinned her lips in fear. She tried to hide behind Mason which triggered Lyceon badly and like a volcano burst, He growled loudly shaking the ground beneath them wildly. Allison let out a fearful scream as the black fur sprouted on his skin and red flashed in his eyes.Everyone feared for Allison and Mason as they knew the reason for their King’s fury. He was back for a reason.Lyceon strode towards them with a menacing look.“Mason…” Allison screamed in terror seeing the enraged king heading to them. Mason didn't have time to blink when Lyceon clutched his neck directly and flung him against the tree hard. Allison looked at the scene horrified.“Mason…” She screamed again with a blurry gaze.“No….please don't hurt him.” She cried out, pleading with Lyceon. Lyceon looked at her with red eyes and snarled at
Allison ran towards the Wooden house where they kept her before when she fainted. She couldn't think of any place to hide as the mansion was far away from there. They were still near the border territory. And the wooden house was made for the guards who usually do the patrolling duties. Allison panted hard before looking back. Everyone was trying to put him in control and truth to be told, Allison was afraid of him that moment. Yes, she didn't want to use her magic on him because she somewhere knew that it won't affect him, on the contrary it will add to his fury. Allison opened the front door of the house and jogged inside. She looked around and chose the last room to hide in. She wiped her face and bit her lips before locking the room. She could hear the growling outside. She wished, He could be put into control by them anyhow. Otherwise she would be doomed. Oh Moon goddess, He will kill me. Please help me! She prayed to the goddess to save her today. She won't do anything reck
The animalistic growl greeted her ears again. Allison stiffened in fear before feeling the intimidating vibes from him as He was breathing on her neck.“I Am not Lyceon, Mate.” Dark gritted. Allison blinked up listening to that husky thick voice again. She understood that Dark had overpowered Lyceon and He was intending to mark her right now. “I will fucking annihilate that bloodsucker who touched you!” He roared before licking Allison’s bruise, healing her and making her tremble. Before He could do anything further, a voice greeted them.“King…”Aztec’s voice snapped them out of the haze they were in. Allison thanked Aztec in mind for his good timing. Dark growled as the new interruption by his beta. And Allison could guess that growling was his favourite habit. Allison almost sighed when He left her and turned around in annoyance. Aztec bowed his head not to enrage him more and said, “One of the vampires killed our one warrior with silver. I guess they were well equipped with a m
Allison gulped down the glass of juice given to her by Grace. She caressed her head and muttered, “Everything will be fine, dear. Though it would be selfish on my part to say that I am very happy to know that you are our King’s mate. But Please don't judge him. He is not that bad. Just know that Your destiny is bound here.” Allison closed her eyes and remained silent, not knowing what to draw from her statement. “Ali…” She snapped her eyes up listening to the familiar voice. Mason came running to her as soon as he heard she was safe. “Mason..” Allison stood up with fresh tears welled up in her eyes. He strode to her. She cried before hugging him on the way. “Shhh. I am here. Everything is fine, my little sister?” Allison nodded and looked up with a small anxious smile. “I thought He hurt you…”“He didn't! He was just angry and you know why!” He nodded to which Allison sighed. “Don't ever leave me again..”“I won't!” He said rigidly and turned to Grace and Felicia.“Can we have
“Are you kidding me?” Allison almost shouted at Mason who gave her a serious look.“Wait…so the mate she rejected was… you!” She muttered under her breath, recalling her conversation with Rebecca. “Indeed! I reckon that you have met her already. I don't know how she will react when she comes to know about you being King’s mate. Even, I was shocked for a moment when I heard him calling you his mate.” Mason sighed, raking his hand on his face. “She already knows!” Allison looked at him and pursed her lips, finally understanding why Rebecca didn't like her at first. Her talks spoke volumes of how much she fancied Lyceon but criticized Allison for getting into the picture abruptly. Mason frowned at her in surprise. She knew! Since when! Allison held her head when it started aching badly. “This is getting messier!” she groaned. “Hey! Don't exert your mind with something which is not in your control.” Mason touched her head softly and nodded looking down.“She might know because they
Lyceon stared at her with an unblinking gaze and was confused with her statement. Though his heart felt a pang but He dodged that feeling and tilted his head, caressing her chin.“And why not Me?” His voice came out hoarse. “You are destruction, Lyceon!” She looked into his eyes with a deep gaze. “You are the Lycan king, the dark lord who has the capacity to ruin everything around you. Your life is very different from mine. You want power, submission, a throne to rule over the earth and all. You don't bat an eye before killing anyone for authority and power. And I… I don't want to be a part of your…game.” Allison sighed looking past him. It was difficult for her to say as she knew how mate bonds work for the couple. The excruciating pain would be there but there were certain limitations on her part too which forced her to restrain herself. Lyceon looked to his left and a deep chuckle left his mouth which turned out to be full-blown laughter. Allison looked at him surprised. He nev
“What the hell were you doing there? You almost hurt Rebecca, Lyceon.” Once they were in his room Allison burst on him. “What has gotten into you? Stop being too dramatic about this scenario. You can’t be right every time. You...”Before she could argue further Lyceon yanked her body and slammed her back against the door and grabbed her arms. “So you pulled me here to teach me what’s wrong and what’s right huh? You took me here to preach to me, Mate!” His intimidating tone and sharp gaze made her nervous but she stood on her ground. “Yes, I pulled you here to preach to you because you are forgetting with whom you are fighting in your rage and pride. What will you do? Punish me too with banishment!” She dared to question him and Lyceon twisted his jaws. He shook his head before smirking slightly. “No! For you, I have special punishment, Mate!” His flashed eyes suddenly threw her confidence into the gutter as she swallowed. “Lyceon, they are our friends, our family. Their opinion mat
Lyceon advanced towards Ashina, shaking everyone’s heart there. He neared her and jerked her shoulders. “Tell me, Ashina! Are you in touch with that bastard? Are you still talking to him? I told you to stay away from him. Didn't I?” His low, dangerous voice shook her. She shook her head and swallowed her fear. “Lyceon, trust me, he is the only one who can help us track Keir and Thana. And he is willing to help…” “ASHINA!” He shut her mouth by growling loudly. She pinched her eyes at his rage. “I told you to never talk to him let alone ask for his help. For fuck sake!” Rebecca couldn't stop herself and stepped forward. “Then what should we do, Lyceon? Have you found them? At least she is helping. Your pride is stopping us from fulfilling our mission. Are you waiting for them to attack us again or kidnap someone else this time? Or Are you waiting for them to kill us this time?” Lyceon snapped his head at her and sharpened his eyes. Mason scooted near his mate for protection seein
“Are you sure you want to do this?” Mason asked his mate who nodded confidently. “Yes, I will do it. If Esther helps us we will take that help and let Lyceon know too. It doesn't matter if he cooperates or not. But we need to tell Allison first after we find Keir and Thana’s whereabouts, which we will know by the evening as Esther mentioned. But yes, only Allison could convince her mate, Mason.” Rebeca sighed as she decided to tell Allison. Mason nodded, supporting her. “She will agree, don't worry. But the problem is the King, I fear his reaction. And He might not listen to Allison and Ashina! That woman is in another world these days. Only if she could help us through that vampire prince.” Felicia sighed. “Anyways, did you call Allison to come out?” Rebecca nodded as they were ready to go out shopping for the coming Luna ceremony. “Yes, she must be ready by now. Wait, let me call her.” “Esther also mentioned she would need Allison. Should we tell her this too?” Mason asked them
‘You are waiting for the bloodbath and here I am taking a cold bath every other day waiting for you, Sugar.’Ashina’s upper lip snarled reading the message from her fake clingy mate. The bastard really knows the ways to get on her nerves. He could freeze to death by cold baths for all she cares! ‘When will you come to me, Sugar?’Ashina let out a cold smile. ‘Probably at your funeral. Or maybe next birth only if you wouldn’t be a ugly bloodsucker then!’As soon as the message got blue ticks, Klyde sent her a big laughing emoji. ‘I can arrange my funeral for you, Sweetheart. Every month! And for the next birth, what would my mate want me to become if not a bloodsucker, hmm?’ Under the message, he sent a special Gif of fangs with blood dripping from the hot lips. Ashina closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths to calm her raging nerves. She just wanted to hit his head and rip it apart. She had blocked him ten times in the past but he always managed to send her messages through di
Felicia let out a deep breath staring non stop at her phone on the table with a nervous gaze. It was on speaker with a ringing bell as she had placed a call to someone and was waiting for the response from the other end. Not only her but her friends Rebecca, Mason, Naomi and Aztec were waiting patiently until the bell stopped and someone responded finally, “I'm glad you called me back, Sweet girl!” A very familiar female voice greeted their ears and Felicia wet her lips. She looked up at Rebecca who nodded at her to speak.Felicia cleared her throat to force herself calm before speaking, “Queen Esther, I called you with a purpose and I'm sure you might have guessed by now why I called you.” Esther hummed leisurely in response and Felicia continued, “First you need to assure me that you really can help us tracking Keir and Thana.” She got a small laugh in response. “Dear, if it were not in my power then why would you think I would have proposed to you. Don't worry, Redford’s word
Felicia slowly looked over her shoulder at Ashina who was unbothered, sitting on the chair with arms crossed over her chest. She didn't seem to be against this idea but also not in favor. As if she was not sure of it too. Then Felicia looked at Mason, Aztec, Naomi. All seemed positive. “Allison would also want this, Cia. And you know it. We should take the lead. Lyceon is just angry over the fact that the vampire Prince Klyde is Ashina’s mate…”“He is not my mate!” Ashina barked. Rebecca closed her eyes, took a deep breath and nodded. “Right! So Lyceon is angry that the prince claimed to be her supposed mate so Lyceon wouldn't take their help and would see them with doubtful eyes as they supported Keir against us before. But you know that Klyde might be her mate for real. You have seen that in his eyes…” Rebecca whispered, leaning forward and nodding at Felicia. “I heard that!” Ashina snapped again. Rebecca whipped her head in her direction with utter frustration. “Could you shut
The whole ride to the Dark Walker kingdom was silent but uncomfortable. Allison didn't make any sound out of her mouth, not even a loud breath. Her mind was whirling around the ugly scenario that happened an hour ago while her blood was boiling in rage with every passing second. She felt regret. A huge regret. She felt like she lost the last ray of hope. She felt tired, defeated, suffocated and whatnot. Thana got successful in taking Zamini’s soul and the last essence of her existence and Allison could do nothing. She felt like someone gripped her heart into a tight fist. As they walked into the hallway of the mansion, Lyceon took her directly into his room. He helped her to clean in the washroom and later took her down for dinner. All the time Allison was shit silent and it was worrying him. Though He didn't bother her. “What happened to her?” Ashina asked her brother in mind-link after the intolerable long silence over the dining table. Rebecca and Felicia were also excha
Something snapped inside Allison seeing the most ugly and terrifying view. She was petrified but the urge to cut Thana into pieces drove Allison to race towards her but again she was slammed back by an invisible block.She fell back on the dirty ground as her body ached with the harsh impact. Still she raised her body and shrieked in rage. “THANA..”Esther snapped her head to Allison’s and followed her gaze. She snarled seeing Thana and Zamini’s heads in her hold and snapped her fingers to keep the witches away from themselves before turning to Allison. “Catch her! I will handle these witches!” She instructed her and Allison didn't need to be told twice as she jumped upright and ran towards Thana who smirked again and stepped backward shaking her head as if taunting Allison that she wouldn't be able to catch her.With a smile Thana created the magical portal behind her and Allison stopped dead short. She stiffened, knowing she couldn't reach Thana at time as she was only a few sec
Allison sighed deeply and nodded, letting the matter leave in fate’s hands. Esther was right. Ashina will go where she is destined. They stepped near Zamini’s house. As Allison walked in front an invisible war yanked her back, ceasing her effort to walk further. Allison gasped, staggering back but composed herself. “Are you ready?” Esther asked her before stepping ahead, stopping beside her. Allison snapped her head in her direction. “To break the spell of Thana. This…” She gestured towards the invisible wall, “…will be broken with both of our strength. I told you before!” Allison almost forgot about why she was even here in the first place. She nodded. Esther offered her hand and Allison placed her palm on her hand before both of them looked ahead and chanted the powerful spell with a loud voice. The harsh strong wind passed through them blowing the trees around as they raised their free hands and curled their fingers, breaking the wall. Allison sucked in a deep breath as it dr
