Devin’s POV
I ripped off his neck away from his body, and flung it to the pile of vampire corpses behind me, “Disgusting bunch of waste” I stated with anger, my name is Devin Asgard the most dangerous Lycan Alpha in all the packs, including the werewolves packs, people say am cold blooded, unfeeling, and a lunatic. Am a killing machine without emotion, the fact that I haven’t found my mate also added to my brutality, I have been punished by the moon goddess for over 199years now, I have no hope of finding a mate, am also a hybrid.My mother is a vampire and my father is a Lycanthrope that is the reason why am a half breed of both, I also have supernatural powers like fire and water elements but I rarely use it because am that formidable.Am on a quest because some vampires invaded the northern part of my territory. I hate to admit this, but the more I rip their heads off the more joy and satisfaction it gives me.Simply put am a monster on battlefield, a monster who derives joy in killing it’s victim. People tremble whenever my name is mentioned, my mother named me Devin because my silver pair of eyes reminds her of the Devil.My omega is also terrified of me because of my monstrous strength.Nonetheless I still have a loyal subordinates who trust and obey my orders.‘Alpha Devin, some of them escaped’ my Beta mind linked me.‘ Track them all, I want no survivors Felix’ I grunted clearly annoyed‘Yes Alpha’ he disconnected.I made my way back to the village center where the people hurdled themselves together because of fright.I forgot to tell you, some part of the the kingdom has human, and protecting them isn’t easy because of they are so weak.‘I really hate weak people always waiting for some kind of night in shining armor, if not for mother I wouldn’t mind driving them out of her into the city where they belong, though they are well aware of what we are, as each of them here has sworn some secrecy documents in other to ensure their life and safety because of those blood sucking vampires.There is a kingdom besides Lion’s claw pack, Ruled by a vampire named Asmodus, that horny bastard who has no regard for human life. He has been provoking me for five decades now, hiding himself in the shadows and playing his cards, a cunning bastard.Am so pissed right now, Asmodus keeps sending his minions over knowing fully well that I will kill them all without sparing any of their useless life.The full moon will be out in a week‘s time and I will be marking 200 once it appears. Also I don’t have a mate which irks me more, I just need some peace and to keep the little that remains of my sanity intact.Nothing has been able to catch my interest, in each decade any lady who is willing to offer up their body, those women usually sign a life or death contract with me before entering my bed, because anyone who couldn’t take it anymore dies while make out with me. This happens once in every decade.‘Sighs… it’s one of my curses, women are afraid of coming close to me, they are even afraid of seducing me.“Damn goddess Selene, I really hate you” all my life I have never been happy.I have two siblings Felix Asgard and lily Asgard.Felix is rather easy going while lily is a little timid, her timidity annoys me a lot.Despite being a monster I treat my family well, I also respect my mother who is currently still the queen mother of the Lion’s claw pack. She is a Luna queen, my father went into hibernation when I was fifty.Mysterys surrounded hybrid lycanthropes like us, which you will get to understand later.For now am still the Alpha, mother says I can only be the Alpha king once I get a mate.“Alpha, thank you for saving us. I know we are a burden to your kingdom but you always rescue us” Alisha the white witch spoke, she is the mouth piece of the human and as a witch she is the only one capable of holding my gaze without fretting like the others.“ I don’t need your thanks, I just felt the need to spill some blood” I replied in my base deep voice that sent chills to people.She chuckled lightly “Devin you don’t need to always see yourself as a monster, learn to accept the fact that you have a good part inside of you ““Am in no need for a sermon witch” I replied as I set the pile of vampire corpses ablaze.I left for the base of the lion’s claw pack, since my omega mind linked me seconds ago.***“Prepare the ritual for the full moon. Liam, everything should go according to order” I told Liam the instant I stepped into the castle.My whole aura was depressing and gloomy.“Son you have to believe you will find your mate” A woman stepped down the grand staircase with a cup of tea. She has a black raven hair with a pair of emerald green eyes, mother looked thirty but has lived for long if you notice her ancient mannerisms.Besides her my little sister peeked out from her sides.“ Mother, you know I don’t hope for a mate anymore, I feel fucking unlucky” my base voice scared lily away as she stayed hidden besides mother.“ Have faith son” she sips her tea as she sat on one of the castle Scottish cushions. She behaves like one from an ancient civilization.‘Hah women and their moderate behavior’ I can’t help but snicker.“ why the long face?” She asked with a lifted brow.“ you have been saying this for eight decades mother, I would appreciate it if you stop preaching to me this moment, am really pissed enough as it is.” I headed straight to my room to wash of the stinking scent of my victims off my clothes.Looking at lily who behaves timidly around me I sneered at her “ lily you are 50 years old this year not fifteen, you better behave like a Lycan you are, not like some weakling.” I disappeared into the distance after dissing her.“Mom, can you tell big brother that am not a weakling? His eyes are what scares me, why does he always mock me? ” lily cried tears threatening to spill out of her eyes, she returned to her room without waiting for her mother’s reply.The queen sighed and continued sipping her tea.Soon enough someone appeared behind her.“I perceive the scent of the chosen one” Alisha said in her old weary voice.“ I feel her presence, I think she is nearer than we think”“Hmmm” Queen Stella hummed in reply.“ Lie in wait, when the moon is out, bring her here” The queen ordered as a green glint flashes past her eyes.Alisha bowed “Yes my queen, your wish is my command” And she disappeared as quickly as she came.Chloe’s POV‘ Sighs’ I brought out the magic gloves mother gave me the other day, I was told I just awakened a power which ended up hurting Henry at my first out leash. Luckily he didn’t brood over it, Henry is a sweet guy, his only shortcomings is that he get provoked easily and is quick to exercise his Alpha pheromones dominance on people who gets on his bad side. After that day he stopped provoking me, and now he respects my wishes. I finally made it to the training ground, i saw some of the scout members were training, while some were dueling with each other. “Chloe you up for a challenge?” The Delta walks towards me, grinning like though he won some lottery.“ I bet I could need some training and advice to enhance my agility and reflexes”“ I guess there is a first time for everything girl”He beckons to one of the scout trainers. “Janet show Chloe some moves”“ yes Delta” Janet sprang up from her position and lunged towards me as she gave me a double strong punch on my stoma
I was filled with shock and fear, as my whole body trembled because of the lightning from the scepter in my hands, which kept draining my energy. I felt as though my bones were on fire. I tried to let it go but it won't get off my hands. The pain was tremendous.I woke up from the dream the next minute as my breathing got heavy.My face glistened with sweat. I grabbed the bed covers and climbed down the bed, I looked at my fingers and smoke was still coming out of it.I realized that it was caused by a burn mark.My hands hurt like hell.I checked the time only to realize that it's 3:00 am in the morning and the whole place is shrouded in darkness, apart from the yellow light emitting from my lamp.I needed to cool my head, my body aches with pain, as my heart beats rapidly in anxiety and fear."This is just the beginning, little one." A whisper came into my ear, I looked and found no one.I felt a shadow crept in behind me.I was so scared, because I knew I didn't see anyone in my be
I felt someone or something holding my hands. Slowly, I opened hazy eyes. I tried moving my wrists only to realize that it's movement has been restricted.My eyes were filled with rage, I mean what the heck?I trailed my eyes to see what was holding me so tightly, my expression was unfriendly till I met a pair of red murky eyes. I subconsciously tried to withdraw my hands from his, but he seemed reluctant and persistent. Our eyes locked for a few seconds, I felt something tugged at my heart and my breathing became shallow. I felt a magnetic pull towards him. Still, I didn't concern myself with what I felt as all I cared about was if my body irritation would react, due to his strong grip on me."Mate…" His breathing became heavy, he leaned towards me, and I leaned away from him"Whoa. Hello? Hold on a second, who the fuck are you?" My eyes were burning, I was certain he was the creature I met deep in the forest. 'For crying out loud, he literally kidnapped me!'"Sorry Baby. I forgot
Devin’s POVBefore I met her, my heart was filled with magnified loneliness and rage. I remembered feeling greatly uneasy yesterday and my heart kept tugging.I turned into my lycan form in the middle of the night and dashed into the forest.I was certain that I ran deeper and deeper into the forest for nearly two hours or so, following the weak scent of my mate available at that moment. I've been living my life without a mate for a long time, and I've read many books in regards to how mates locate each other.My lycan, Luca usually ran at a monstrous speed, but much to my surprise, he slowed his pace and came to a halt in a particular location.Luca sniffed and said, " She is here." "How far are we away from her?" I asked, I felt agitated. I changed into my human form and peered into the night.I heard a feminine voice, she seemed scared, she ran without direction and a strange shadow was on her tail. I sniffed her scent despite the distance between us."Mate." My eyes gleamed pur
Chloe’s POVDevin brought me to a big dining table, and there I saw three strange faces. An older woman was in their midst, her eyes soon flitted with shock at my presence."Devin? Who is she?" The woman asked as she grabbed a cup of water and took a sip, her action seemed refined, but she was gripping the cup to tightly.I inwardly laughed, she didn't need to act all high and mighty in front of me, I'm the queen of high class itself."Meet Chloe, my mate." Hearing his words, the brunette who sat like a demure lady, stood up fiercely, seemly very agitated."Devin, How is that possible?, our engagement's today, remember?" Her voice quivered."Well it have to be canceled, you aren't my mate, don't push your luck, lady." His words were cold to the core, causing the brunette to stagger."Devin! How can you be so harsh? Clarissa have been waiting till this day. She came to our pack all dressed up all morning, only to have you dash and destroy her dreams?" The older woman spoke with gritted
Chloe’s POVI turned my back on them and walked towards the direction Devin and I passed by a moment ago.I walked a few paces and stopped, tilting my neck, I stared at Devin. "Honey, send me breakfast, if not, you would see your precious mate's corpse lying on the cold floor." His body shivered at my words, he struggled to control the wave of fierce emotions he felt."That girl is quite disrespectful, no one has ever talked to Devin in such a rude manner before." Devin's mother muttered, like though in a trance and unable to accept reality.A thrill washed over me. Causing trouble the moment I stepped into a any place has always been my forte.I chuckled and waved my arm at them, 'I'm gonna leave here the moment I finish getting something to eat. Or I'm gonna die of starvation.****Devin’s watched me as I spooned the food, my expression showed immense satisfaction."Alpha Devin, Right?" I raised my eyebrows in query, I didn't want to sound disrespectful, I want to be sure that he i
Devin's POVI've never met one who seems not afraid of death, this always happens.I've been told by a seer that my mate will be from a strange place, with a strange personality. Seeing it for myself made me feel quite strange, I have to look For a way to cure my curse, this isn't what I wanted.The thrill I got from taking a soul has never felt so great, I'm a man with three personalities, and all these have been caused by me being a mixed breed. The dangerous me is Draco, the normal me is Devin , the soft part of me is Dave. I've never asked for this, no one knows better than me the hell I've endured for years. The Asgard's bloodline has been cursed by some witch three hundred years ago. And it goes as thus; We can never be happy, we will always thirst for blood, whenever our second personality takes over, we might murder our close friends. Pain and sadness will be our hearts' dwelling place. I inherited this curse from my father, Gavriel Asgard. My father is a mysterious man, I'm
"Kill me… I don't deserve to live…" Like though a switch in my heart has been triggered, I struggled and released my hold on her. My body shook tremendously as black veins popped out of my neck and muscles. I fell down on the floor and she tried to catch her breath, coughing in the process.The blood vessels in my veins kept swelling, the pain I felt was tremendous. "Urgh… ahhh.." Despite my pain, my eyes were focused on her.I'm going through pain, this is what I get when I don't feed my bloodlust… immense pain. She doesn't deserve to die, She didn't do anything, I chanted these words in my head to tame my blood lust. Chloe stared at me, her lifeless eyes stared deep at me.I don't know if it was worry or fear I saw in her eyes. "You are in pain…" It was more like a declaratory statement.Chloe crawled towards me, I backed away from her, "don't come near." I muttered, coughing haphazardly in the process. My tongue tasted a strong metallic fishy taste, and I knew it's blood. "Shh…
Earlier…Chloe’s POV When we lay side by side across each other, Devin stood up first and went to the bathroom. After he finished bathing, he emerged from the tub. Opening the bathroom partition, he graced me with his muscles. At that moment, I was certain that I nearly had a nose bleed.I put my fingers on my lips, to keep myself from gasping.'Jesus, Devin is so handsome and his body is top notch.' My fingers trembled in excitement. The strong urge to seduce him washed over me.Devin wore the towel on his torso, his cheeks were flushed and his murky eyes dimmed, my heart thumped so hard. I was afraid he would hear my heartbeat.When was the last time I got this attracted to someone? But the man in front of me is a shifter… A strong healthy, cold blooded lycan alpha of the Lion's Claw Pack."Going somewhere?" I asked hesitantly, subconsciously blinking my eyes. Bringing out the seductive part of me."Mmm, going for a meeting…" He chuckled, letting out a throaty laughter. I raised
Felix QuinnBeta of the Lion's claw pack The Pack has a total of 800 members, but currently only one-third of them are seated besides the bay. A wooden chair made by our craftsman, made out of maple woods. The wooden chair was designed to accommodate at least 500 members. Our packs have the highest sitting podium, catered only to their members. We also have a semi chamber for visitors who wish to see the alpha.In front of the members, are four high chairs finely made out of oak. The chairs are for the Alpha, Luna, Beta, and Omega. Currently, only two of the seats are occupied by only me and Devin.I felt a surge of migraine, 'these people are getting on my nerves.' I smiled, trying to look harmless."We've been quiet for years, the Alpha is unstable and could wreak havoc any time, we can't keep entrusting ourselves to him. These days, Alpha Devin's curse kept occurring frequently." One of the older pack members said and the others nodded in support."He could get better.." I voi
HENRY' POVMy eyes were bloodshot, and my mood wasn't good and I'd barked at anyone who got close to me or probably provoke me in any way.Father and mother had been restless and mother looked more panicked than ever. I watched mother this morning, while she was taking care of the pups and spending time with them, the smile that would usually grace her face had disappeared.Father's mood could be counted as neutral from my point of view, only he has the capability of determining how he felt inside.Chloe’s running away or disappearing from the pack has never been heard of, while analyzing the situation, she left her room at night and the guards on standby said they felt something pressing on their muscles invisibly Ann's they couldn't move. And they said she seemed like she was being chased by something."Henry, we've found a lead." Madison mind linked me."Where?" I asked back."Somewhere around Shadow Moon's Pack Groove." The moment I heard it, my stomach literally dropped."She m
Chloe's POVI just wanted to ease the tension in the air. Who would have thought that my years of being lonely and using my free time to read novels, books on life theories would be put into use today? The man in front of me, Devin Asgard, I could tell he is suffering from psychological issues.I know this because my mom suffered from mistreatment and harassment. It caused her mental derailment, a mental state that caused her death.I used to visit her at the psychiatric hospital back then.The memory wasn't pleasant, so I threw it at the back of my mind.Perhaps, I might have been afraid of death in my first life, but now, dying a second time, I don't think I'm that afraid anymore.I've seen people like Jake, if I had acted terrified at that point when craziness and cruelty filled his eyes, his vain insanity would be satisfied. And probably, my cold corpse would be lying on the floor.I don't have any attachments to anyone here. Thinking of the betrayal I experienced in the first wo
