Devin’s POV
Before 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 pure red and I quickened my steps towards her. The urge to go on a rampage came over me.She ran and collided into my body, her soft breast teased my senses, because she wore a nightgown without underwear.The moment her body subconsciously collided with mine, I took the opportunity and held her slender waist, and steadied her in place. Baffled, my mate slowly raised her head and stared deep into my eyes, her haggard breathing came to a halt and her eyes widened. I'm a vampire and a lycan mixed breed, I could tell she might have been scared silly by my red murky eyes. I jabbed her neck with my large hands and she went unconscious the next moment. My heart which has been feeling uneasy for years felt more peaceful with my mate in my embrace.I've never felt so satisfied and fulfilled in my entire life. I left my current standing position and with a speed like no other, I disappeared into the distance.I laid her petite body on the large bed, hee features were exceptional. "She's very beautiful," Luca commented in my head."Naturally, I've always received the best of the best.""You're very narcissistic Jake, you better control your dangerous temper, if not, you would scare her away." Luca hissed, clearly annoyed."Shut up Luca." I barked."Jake, mother had planned our marriage ceremony with Clarissa, but the outcome of event is quite unexpected. We either get married to our mate, or cancel the ceremony altogether. She's gonna feel pissed out once she knows of this." Luca complained.I'm quite aware that Clarissa has been preparing for that day, the day she would be my mate. Maybe her quest to get me to like her caught my mother's attention. I could only tolerate her wanton pursuit because Clarissa's mother is the Luna of Crescent moon pack, and the best friend of my mother. Their relationship is quite complicated, Clarissa have known me since childhood, and I heard fr the pack members that she had a huge crush on me, not that I care about that. I don't feel that way towards her, period."That's what you might think Jake, but that girl is obsessed over you .""Well, that's her problem, her feelings won't keep me from acknowledging and loving my mate.""You're heartless Jake, she's loved you since childhood. Sigh, you know how persistent your mother can be, what if she tries to eliminate our mate?" Luca kept talking on and on, and I was getting a headache from our conversation because it would have no ending point."I don't care. From the beginning, my mother has no right to decide who I keep in my life. I wouldn't mind spilling more blood. " Hearing my statement, Luca kept shut and didn't talk to me again.I ignored Luca and stared at my sleeping mate, as I used my fingers to trace her face, eyes, lips and jawline. She looks outstanding in every way, Clarissa doesn't hold a candle to her beauty, why would I leave an expensive silver fish and go for a mackerel?My mate's lips were very supple, and her nose bridge was high. All in all, she looked so tempting.I couldn't control the strong urge to kiss her anymore. I've been staring at her all night, my blood has been surging uncontrollably for quite a while now.I leaned down and kissed her lips, I couldn't pry open her teeth, but I felt satisfied with my achievements. She tasted so good, and I'm afraid that I would become addicted. I kissed her lips one more time and let her go reluctantly. My breath was heavy, her lips were red, tempting me to kiss it again, but I held in my lust. I breathed into her nose and she stirred a bit. She purred like a cat, causing me to chuckle. I've never felt so amused seeing someone sleep this peacefully.Yes, I'm a pervert, a pervert towards my mate and I don't think I would be stopping any time soon.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…
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
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

A wooden chair made by our craftsman, made out of maple woods. The wooden chair was designed to accommodate at least 500 members.

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
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
