Willa's POV
Three days passed since we teleported out of the cell.
I didn't know where we were. I barely had the energy to eat, let alone care about our location.
The sting in my chest never faded, and this time it hurt more. I guess it was just what people called "heartbreak". I felt that when I thought Al wasn't mine, and I definitely was having a worse one now, when I KNEW, Al belonged to Natasha.
I agreed to join the new pack.
Granny's teleport mark took us to a small cove. It took her ten days to run here last time.
Far away from Al.
We had been camping by the sea for the past three days. Granny never asked why I was feeling low. She knew me well enough to not ask. She didn't even ask about Taran when it was supposed to be a new name to her.
She gave me all the time and space I needed to lick my wounds.
She was right. I should have stayed away from Taran since the beginning. Antonia hadn't woken up yet. We
Don't rush into your guessesS~ There is ANOTHER silver wolf coming up~ :)
Kirsch's POV [Willa! Are you alright? Where are you?!] I almost burst into shouting, in the happiness of hearing her voice. She was sitting on a rock by the sea, with only the dark waves in front of her. Of course she was by the sea. [I'm fine, thanks. Glad you woke up.] She was smiling, but there was a shade of aloofness in Willa's tone. I guess she had always been cold to me. [Little one, where are you right now?] Taran asked with a smile, gentle as ever. I watched in shock as Willa bit her lips and dodged Taran's eyes. She had never been cold to Taran! When he was around, it was like her eyes could only fit him and nothing more. Willa must be really hurt this time for her to keep Taran at distance. [I'm really sorry for what happened. I'm sorry I wasn't there to protect you--] Taran started with a more cautious tone. He noticed Willa's abnormal attitude toward him as well. [It's okay. It's not your responsibility to
Kirsch's POV The second Willa broke the mind link, Taran turned around and put his fist through the wall. "Taran--" I started, but it only got Taran to hit the wall again, and again and again and again. Each time with more force. Nat flinched in horror at Taran's sudden outburst. She had never seen Taran lose control like this. I, had never seen Taran lose control like this, not when it wasn't from Cerberus. Blood splashed on the wall since the fifth hit, but Taran wasn't stopping. He pushed against the wall with one hand and was hitting the wall even harder. "Taran, I know it hurts, I understand. But Willa is still in the pack bond, I can try to talk her--" "No!" Taran growled as he wheeled on me. But at least he stopped hitting the wall. "Alpha, I know you are hurt--" I said cautiously. Though Cerberus was not awake, I didn't want to irritate him more. I had never realized so clearly before -- without Cerberus, Taran was an A
Granny's POV I lied to Willa. She wasn't poisoned, she was cursed. I had been feeding her wolfsbane ever since I took her home. Wolfsbane couldn't hurt her. The lethal poison to werewolves became Willa's best weapon. She needed protection. Wolfsbane only worked on her wolf, and her wolf could only appear on the new moon night. Until she turns 18, that was. That was the only way I could contain her wolf, and that only needed to last till her 18th birthday. She would be free once the curse is broken. I would break the curse for her. The story of the cursed wolfless was well known in our world, but little knew the true story. Once upon a time, there was yet any werewolf walking on the surface of the earth. The moon goddess was lonely, for she was the only goddess who possessed two forms -- a human form as the eternal virgin called Luna; and a wolf form, known as Nox. She created our kind, and gave us her ab
Granny's POV I didn't know what happened exactly, but I knew Willa was heartbroken. Willa sat by the sea, mindliking Alpha Kirsch. I knew she would talk to him one last time. Though I didn't think it was possible, I knew she fell in love with the Alpha. I had the "no relationship" rule because Willa was the soul piece of the moon goddess, she wasn't assigned a mate. The moon goddess pairs mates by linking their souls together. She couldn't link her own soul with a mortal. But while Willa couldn't feel the mate pull from anyone, others could feel the pull toward her -- Being the moon goddess, she would automatically attract the Alpha of the pack she is in when she turned 18. That was how I got my mate. All I needed to do was to find her a pack with an Alpha worthy for her. Even if he has a mate already, he wouldn't be able to resist the pull toward his moon goddess. He would love Willa with all his heart. "Granny..." Wil
Kirsch's POVWe never took Cerberus's chase a serious quest. We thought it was only a symptom of his madness, and if a run could calm him, why not.But maybe Willa WAS the answer!"It makes sense!" I was more certain as I thought into my theory, "Cerberus never treated anyone like he treated Willa!"Taran hesitated: "But, shouldn't Cerberus know when he first met Willa? To know that she was the mysterious pull he felt on all those nights?""Something definitely happened to Willa on the new moon night. It can't be a coincidence that she happened to have taken wolfsbane by accident on the same night Cerberus went in rage! Whatever it was, it must be the mysterious pull!"Taran didn't say anything. But I finally saw the little sparkles of hope lighting in his eyes again."I'll get her back, and we will see next month. If it IS her, then your suffering is finally over. If it isn't, Willa would still have a pack that cared about her." I wa
Willa's POVI didn't want to put through Kirsch's mind link request because I knew he would want to help. He couldn't help unless I use magic to bring him here, and I couldn't tell him about the magic.Taran knew, but we couldn't mind link without Kirsch.There was no point to let them know I was in trouble, especially after Kirsch told me Taran took wolfsbane yet again. Why did he do that though? Soulstorm should have helped him on the new moon.Why was he drugging Cerberus yet again?I wish I could have the chance to ask him, but the Alpha blocking the cave didn't seem very friendly.[Please, Willa. Help me come to you, please!] Taran pleaded in the mind link. How could I take him away from his mate to take such a risk for me?This wasn't his fight.[I can handle it. But I need you to not mindlink me for a while, okay?] I dodged Taran's eyes. I didn't know whether I could handle the scared Alpha in front of me, but I couldn't
Willa's POV Jason knew about our magic?! And now they all knew?! [Magic? You have magic?!] Rudy repeated with a happy tone. Granny shot him a strict glare and he put away his silly smile. [Well...] I didn't want to stress that it wasn't my magic but granny's. Her magic could be taken. Maybe letting him think I had magic was better. There was no point hiding our magic from Kirsch anymore. Apparently, everybody knew about it now! So that was why Jason had been after me! He knew about our magic! Not because some phony revenge on his son. And that was why Jason didn't mention Cerberus to the Treaty! He wouldn't be able to keep my magic to himself if the Treaty stepped in. [Willa, get him here.] Granny said as she pulled me behind her. [I can handle the scary Alpha! You make the mark!] I jumped in front of granny. Granny was still weak. I would stand a bigger chance of killing the scary Alpha. [Willa!] Granny wanted to stop
Willa's POV "How many little spells do you have left, little fierce kitten?" The scary Alpha snorted as he stepped closer, "Two? Hmmm, maybe one. Your right arm doesn't bear a black ring, does it?" Evil or not, this man had a brain. "Dare come and count yourself?" I challenged him. Alphas couldn't tolerate challenges, and I didn't have too many chances to do that without consequences so I might just have my fun with him. Knowing Taran was on his way suddenly made everything bright and fun. "I'm gonna enjoy breaking you so much, fierce kitten." The scary Alpha licked his lips, his eyes flickered to his beast. "From that far? You are enjoying drooling over me alright." I teased with an evil grin. It would be great if he would come up and fight though. Taking him down would be much easier than taking down his wolf herd. "I don't get it, kitten. How do you imagine getting out of here in one piece?" The scary Alpha rose both his arm
