SKYLAR“Get up!” I heard a voice echoed all over my face. “Get up!” The voice became louder.“Miles.” I whispered, trying to get up by holding my head.“Miles isn't here, Honey. It's just me.” Josh said in a mocking tone.“You bastard!” I charged towards him with my fangs out but on getting to him, I couldn't bring myself to hurt him.“What is wrong with me?” I asked myself as I tried to use my fangs on him. I looked at him and memories of everything I did in the dungeons flooded my mind.“Ohh!” I held my stomach, tears gather in my eyes, “what have I done?” I whispered.“You did what I told you to do.” He said in a commanding tone.“I hope Miles is okay.” I said to myself. I hurt him so badly. “Come, I don't have all day to watch you cry. I have things to do.” He says“Who are you?” I asked him, “because clearly you are not Josh.”“You will find out soon enough.” He said.He didn't need to drag me with him because I didn't protest, I followed him willingly and without questions.We
VALERIEI couldn't believe what I was hearing. What did she mean by I haven't unlocked all my powers yet.I thought I had just three powers, the moon goddess said so herself. It's Octavia playing games with me or she actually saying the truth.“What do you mean by I haven't unlocked all my powers yet?” I asked her, but she didn't seem interested in answering my question.“You can't take this away from me. It's my power!” I shot at her.I could feel myself trembling, like my whole body was shaking but couldn't move from the spot I was.Two guards walked towards me and removed the binds from my hands. I took the opportunity and charged towards them.I changed into my wolf immediately, there was a lot of gasp and wide mouth as I did.I bared my teeth and let out a fierce howl, hoping Kaden, Ansel and Grey could hear me.Octavia scoffed, “that won't help.” She said“Will see.” I replied to her.The sound of my howl made the guards stop, they had a surprised look on their face and so did e
SKYLARThe ride back to the palace was a quiet one. After Egnar's proclaimed himself King, the whole pack seem to have gone into hiding.The street and the roads back to the palace was empty and dry unlike it usual buzzing and cheerful noise. Everyone remembers the horror we all experienced when Egnar ruled and no one wants a recantation of the cruel wedding all over again.This is all my fault. If only I was able to knock him out of my body. None of this would have happened. I knew something was off about Josh when I realized he was the one controlling my body but this isn't Josh. Josh is probably dead because Egnar is now in his body.We got to the palace and Egnar walks out of the car, taking in the cool breeze that radiated the whole place. It's weird seeing him for who he is in Josh's body. It's more than werid, it's creepy and inappropriate.I looked around the palace building, everyone had lined up to greet him. No one wants to be killed for being incompetent. No one wants to
SKYLARIt's been days since Eganr took control of the whole Kingdom. A lot of Alphas has come down to the palace to pay homage to him.Most of them tried talking to me to come up with a plan to save our kingdoms while most of them were angry with the Alphas for leaving the kingdom in the first place.I tried my best to pacify all of them and gave them the advice Eganr had stuck in my head.“Obey and pay homage to Lord Egnar and you shall be safe.”He planted those words in my head the minute the Alpha's came into the palace. He told me it was my sacred duty.“I need most of this in the chamber of Lord Egnar.” I heard Fiona direct the servants. I'm so lost in thoughts that I have forgotten I'm with her.“What are you doing standing there? Pick something up and work!” She yelled at me “I'm not going to do that.” I said to her, “I'm an Alpha, beside I only take orders from Lord Egnar.” I said to her.“And I'm going to be married to Lord Egnar. Which makes me your Lady Luna.” She says b
KADEN“I'm sorry, I didn't believe you.” Grey said to me, I could see the remorse look on his face.“What do we now?”Ansel asked.“I don't know.” I said breathlessly.“You don't know, you have spearheaded this operation from the very beginning. How do you possibly not know what to do?!” Grey shot at me.“Because I don't know what to do. I'm out of my league here. Just because I was right about the suspicion doesn't mean I know what to do here.” I said to him.“Yeah, you are always right when it's convenient for you.” He snapped at me.“You don't get to talk to me like that. I protested for her not to come here but you assured me she was going to be safe.”“Ansel also made that promise.” He said to me.“Don't bring Ansel into this.” I told him.“Yeah, keep me out of this.” Ansel said.The room was crowded and I was beginning to feel hot and the OCD was coming in full force.“Everybody out!” I thundered and the room shook.Ansel looks at me like he understands what I'm going through.“A
KADEN“I have never been this happy to see you.” Ansel hugged Scott.“Me to, me to.” Scott hugged him back.“What's up Scott.” Grey just greeted him from afar and any time he does that it means he is feeling guilty about something.“How are you doing, Grey?” Scott saluted him from afar.“Is it weird for you to be here?” Ansel asked him.“In wolf territory? Nah, as long as I have my favorite wolves with me, I'm good!” He said smiling.I looked around I saw the second senior soldier I left with Scott. He walked towards me when he made eye contact.“Alph!” He saluted.“At ease, Solider. How are you doing?” I asked him.“Never better. Ready to take the fight wherever you need them to go.”“Awesome.” I said and turned to Scott.“How did you find us? I never told you about this place.” I said to him.“The old woman woke up.” He said.“What?!” I was stunned, when I left she wasn't close to waking up.“Are you kidding me?” I asked“How do you think I found this place? I don't have magical pow
VALERIE I don't know how long I have been trying to hide my powers or pretend that I haven't fully activated them all, but I know it has been hours. I don't even know what time it is, the shrine room isn't open and there are no windows to even know the time through the sky. Octavia has been angry that the powers hadn't been activated and she keeps screaming at everyone, surprisely Silvia as well. That's what you get for worshiping an evil person who only thinks about herself. But she doesn't seem to care but how would I know, she could be pretending just so she won't be torn apart but Octavia. Resisting all the things being done to me is getting old but that's the only way I can buy some more time for Kaden, Ansel and Grey to come get me. I really hope they are safe and not hurt. I really need to ask Kaden for his forgiveness because he predicted all of this. If only I listened to him. I'm about to get myself killed because I wanted a family. But I just needed to feel like I sti
ANSEL“Ansel….” Kaden called out to me. I walked towards his side of the forest, “we have less than a day to find the plant.” “What do you mean less than a day?” I asked him.It's what Scott said.” He pointed at Scott.I Scoffed, “so what are we going to do?” I asked him.“We are just going to have to work faster. Look for the plant a little bit faster.” He said.“That's not a plan.” I said to him.“Well, that's the one we have right now.” Scott said to me.“I'm not talking to you. I'm talking to my brother!” I shot at him.“Well, I'm right here.” He said.“Well, you can piss off.” I said to him rudely and walked back to where I was looking for the plan.I kept hitting the bush as I looked for the plant. I don't know how they don't think this is a waste of time.We should be looking for where Valerie is and charging towards Octavia. Use every power in us to get her to stand down.Looking for an ancient plant to forge a knife off, sounds like a fairy godmother's story.And I can't bel
For almost 300 chapters, I wrote the story of six imaginary characters, and somewhere along the line, I forgot that they were just a figment of my imagination. I fell in love with their pain and their stories, and for one year, they were the one constant in my otherwise unbalanced life. If you are reading this, then they grew on you, too. Thank you for staying with me as I poured my imagination onto paper. Our journey has to end here, but this journey would have been nothing without you, my precious readers. I hope you stay back and become more than just a reader but part of the family. If you hang on a bit longer, we could also grow along with the new characters in my new books.I love every one of you. And loyal readers, even the grammar correctors and inline comment editors, are the reason I wake up, and writing is what keeps me going every day. Thank you, and I hope to see you in my next project.
ValerieThe palace was filled with the sound of laughter and music. It had been years since we had conquered the people that almost ruined our lives, tried to kill us and also tear us apart. Today, we celebrated.Elara was eighteen.My baby- the little girl who had been taken, nearly lost, and fought for- was now a woman. And not just any woman. She was stronger, beautiful and much more powerful than she had been as a baby. And most importantly, she was loved. She was standing at the center of the hall, her beautiful golden eyes glowing under the light and her white gown cascading around her. I was standing at the balcony as I stared at her and made sure everything was going on right at the party. “You’re going to cry aren’t you?” A familiar voice asked. I turned around to see that it was Kaden and he wore a smug smirk on his face. “I’m not one to cry,” I replied him with a scoff“Now, you’re lying,” Grey said as he walked to stand beside me. “You cried when she turned ten.”“
ValerieThe battle was over.The war was won.And yet, the weight in my chest remained.We had survived. We had fought against powerful people that threatened to end life as we knew it, we had lost people but we still managed to come out victorious though injured and weak. I looked around at what remained from the intense fighting- the floor was stained with blood, broken and bloodied weapons were scattered all over the floor and then the bodies- they laid uncountable and badly battered as life had left them. So many bodies. Some were ours, but most belonged to the Revolutionaries who had dared to challenge us.And then there was Scott who had fought so hard to protect my daughter and kingdom. He had lost his father in the process. He was kneeling close to his father’s body, his body was tense and he was silent, an unreadable expression on his face as he stared at the lifeless body of the man who had protected him instead of leaving him to die. A true father. I wanted to comfort hi
ScottI couldn’t wrap my mind around anything that was going on. It was all a blur and I could see nothing but red. The shouts of battle as the triplets surged forward, the sound of sword against slow, claws tearing against flesh and the sound of bodies hitting the floor all faded into the background. All I could see was him. My father. His now lifeless body was laying on the floor, his once powerful and mighty body was nothing more than a dead body now. His blood stained the floor beneath him, it was dark- darker than a normal blood should be and it pooled all both of us and my body too as it polled beneath him also. His eyes that were once sharp, the same eyes that had intelligence, history and a lot of battles surging through them were now more than empty- lifeless. Gone.The father I had just begun to understand. The father who had saved me. The father I thought hated me- only to realize too late that he didn’t.He had never really hated me, he just didn’t know how to show
Valerie Elara cried in my arms, her little body trembling against my hold on her. Scott was still battling against them, stronger than Kaden, Ansel and Kaden while Skylar stood by the side, fear written all over her face, looking traumatized. Andrea and her second in command were no more fearful, instead they were angry as they looked at the floor that was soaked with the blood of their men.“Give the baby to me,” Andrea snarled, her voice as sharp as a razor. I held Elara tighter, stepping back instinctively. “Over my dead body.”He smirked. “That can be arranged.”Others were still fighting as she made her way to me. I barely had time to react when she reached for me, clawing at Elara. Her movement was fast- too fast. A low growl ripped past my lips before I could stop it as my wolf howled in anger. I wasn’t going to let her touch my baby. My body was burning as my wolf took over, my bones shifting and snapping out of place. My muscles stretched and my fur sprouted along my
Valerie Elara’s cry stopped me dead in my tracks as her cries pierced through the air, their grip on her tightening. The sliver blade of the dagger hovered dangerously close to her neck as it glinted under the bright moonlight. Everything inside me was burning and screaming at me. I had to save her.But I wasn’t fast enough.The moment I moved, the leader pressed the blade closer. “If you take one more step,” she said, her voice filled with warning as a cruel smile curled at her lips. “I’ll kill her and I’ll made sure it’s a slow and enjoyable death for me.”I froze in place, my heart racing and my nerves all over the place. Kaden and Ansel tensed up as they stood beside me with clenched hands and anger coursing through their bodies, barely able to control the frustration they were feeling. Grey on the other was shaking with a barely suppressed anger as he halted daggers at Andrea. The air was heavy and suffocating. Then, all of a sudden, something shifted. I heard a low and dee
Valerie Scott looked uncertain. His eyes glowered between us all, the expression on his face was unreadable as if he was having an internal battle with himself on what he had to do next. I could feel the tension that was radiating off Ansel, Kaden and Grey’s bodies. We were all ready to fight even if it was the last thing that we did but we were weak and we needed Scott to make a choice, we needed him to do something. The men and women of the revolution stood on the other side path there weapons and out and ready, waiting for either us or Scott to do something against what they wanted. Skylar was kneeling by Andrea’s legs, her jaw was clenching and tears were running down her face. I knew she was feeling stupid because Kaden had said they weren’t to be trusted and she hadn’t listened. She had been so stubborn and all of this was partially her fault. She was so desperate to have her family back that she forgot that no one was to be trusted. Scott let out a small sigh as he ran hi
Valerie“So how do we get there?” Grey asked, his voice filled with urgency.“That’s simple, this…” i trialed off before it turned to look at the woman. “I didn’t get your name, what name do you go by?”“My name is Andrea,” she replied with a tight smile and I nodded. “So as I was saying, since she knows the way to the vampire kingdom, we just have to follow behind her and pray we get there as fast as we can,” I explained and the guys nodded in approval while Skyler just looked at us indifferently. “So we go now? Without any plans of anything happens?” Ansel asked, the anger he was feeling evident in his voice. “Nothing is going to happen, Ansel,” Skylar said thejugj gritted teeth. “I already told you that there’s nothing to worry about. Just because you’re now finding out that Scott is a vampire doesn’t make him any different from the man that you’ve known since.”“Oh please, what if he’s about to show that he really ha-“ Ansel started but a look from me was wvkugh to shut him up.
Scott I walked out of my father’s presence and walked back to the maids to get the baby. I had thought that I was only going to be there for a few minutes before I headed back out and look for somewhere safe but there really wasn’t anywhere better than the heavily guarded estate of my father’s kingdom. But when my hand reached for the door knob, I stopped, realizing that I needed to take a shower and get my powers back if I really wanted to win this battle. The babies were with Raye- the maid that had brought me and my brother up and I was that they were in safe hands. I turned on my heels and headed towards the healers part the house. When I got there, her mouth fell open as she bombarded me with questions. “After years of you staying away from here, you come back with so many injuries and a weak body?” She asked as she ushered me to a sit by the corner of the room. “It’s not like I intentionally did this to myself,” I replied coldly but soon regretted it when I saw the look on
