last update Last Updated: 2024-01-01 07:35:00

-RAINA'S POV-

In the blink of an eye, the brunette charged at me. She punched me across the face, catching me off guard.

I saw stars and gasped as my head swiped to the side, expelling air. A jarring pain cropped up in my neck and cheeks as I staggered backwards. Blood went down my throat.

“The winner gets a date with me!” Valen boomed in a power pose with fists on his waist.

The crowd went “Oooooh! Some whistled and cheered.

“Go, Kristen!” The blonde from her posse rooted, standing beside Benji on the second floor.

So, that was the name of my challenger. I swallowed the blood in my mouth and scoffed. She held a smirk that glinted proudly in her eyes after getting the first hit.

By now, phones from people's pockets are popped out, aiming their cameras at us. They surrounded the field like a stadium, some sitting cross-legged on the grass-covered areas.

But I don't give a flying flute in their direction. I had to focus on the match.

    -VALEN'S POV- Two scents fluttered around my senses. Raina's bluebell and cherry mate scent triggered that pull for me to rush to her. Then the metallic rich blood odor was inciting Zeus to force himself through just to go to her aid. Holding a hand across her ribs, the door opened, and she staggered over to the bed, sitting down. She groaned against the pain. Her yellow tank top was largely marred by blood and oozing from her lacerations through the sliced garment, over her fingers. Seeing her in pain gutted me, eating at my heart. Shoving the door shut, her head snapped up to see me. Shock elevated her brows and her mouth slightly parted. “I can't deal with you right n ―” Then her eyes rounded to see what I held in my hand. Horrified, she looked like she had seen a ghost. Absolutely horrified. Instinctively, I dropped the doll on the floor and dashed to her side. My emerald green collided with her electric blues. The unsettling gaze she dispensed puzzled me, but I concentrated

    -RAINA'S POV- Why is it so easy for miscommunications to occur in relationships? A misunderstanding fluctuated between us. It was one that I wanted to instantly obliterate. I held my breath anticipating what kind of venom Valen was about to spit at me. “That doll was on your dresser when I got here. It caught my attention because of the tag that said Valen Jr. I was curious about it and took it up to examine it. But now I'm confused because it seemed that you were putting the blame on me for something that I know nothing about,” he explained, his lecherous eyes flicked on my lips. “Why would you think that I'd tease you with a doll when I'd rather do that with my kisses?” “Anytime, baby.” Hera cooed in my head, swooning. My cheeks heated up at the sappy scenario he painted. I shrugged and just said, “Because I don't own a doll.” I never did. “So how could one be in my room?” “But it was here,” Valen insisted, staring dead at my eyes. “Swear to me that you are not lying.” I grab

    -RAINA’S POV- Hera whimpered, wanting Valen’s attention. My soul protested his abrupt departure. I suppose I should get used to it. In no time, I put on the lacy black underwear set and a yellow, knee-length, floral sundress with V-neck. When I exited the bathroom with the dirty training clothes in my hand, Valen sat hunched on the bed with legs apart and arms on his thighs. “Are you alright?” Concern crossed his features as his eyes stalked me. “Yeah,” I answered flatly, going to the laundry basket in the corner of my all-white walk-in closet. “This can’t be easy for you. Say the word and I’ll shut down Gramlynz.” Valen rose from the bed. “It’s fine.” I opened the basket and dropped the clothes inside. I heard his footsteps drawing closer, bouncing off the white oak Herringbone hardwood floor. Wouldn’t people blame me for eradicating one of the major joys in their lives? How could I take social media from the werewolf kingdom? “When this is over, you and I will go away to an

    -RAINA'S POV- Wicked is the curse of my reality that propelled me like an avalanche with eyes pressed open. Gravity pulled me down. Hurtling through endless blobs of peach-colored clouds. The finale was obscured and where this leads, I was not sure. Like a shot-down aircraft, I rapidly descended. My chest tightened, constricting the air that I struggled to inhale into my lungs. Falling without a parachute. No safety net below. No bungee cords attached to my waist. No skydiving trainer latching me to him like a baby kangaroo. Falling into a bloodthirsty abyss or maybe not. More miles of white clouds to go. I screamed so much that my throat became scratchy, hoarse, and dry. Yet, I could not control my mouth's shrieks or outcries. Not when hollow dread was gnawing inside of me from the worst roller-coaster ride of my life. Where was Valen? Where am I? Who is doing this? My brain struggled to understand what was going on. My heartbeat frantically hammered in my chest. Suddenly t

    -RAINA’S POV- “Show yourself! Don’t just hide.” Valen’s gruffly demanded, swiveling around. “You have no authority here, Alpha Prince.” The feminine voice returned with a giggle. “You brought us here, so come out and talk to us.” I tried to sound amicably. No one answered. No one was sighted. There was no rustling of trees or sounds of animals. Only the bitter brumal breeze and us. I looked up at Valen with wide unsure eyes and admitted, “I’m actually scared now.” “The gods usually make some sort of deal. Even if it was Cronus, I believe he should offer you a way to redeem yourself.” His gentle words gave me a little hope. The heat that glistened off the water's surface caressed my skin, coaxing and inviting. I anticipated feeling the hot water against my flesh and hopefully, it will ease my mind and body from this suspenseful tension. Valen lowered me to my feet on a red pebbled ground. The orange-agate crown-shaped boulders surrounding the spring resembled a California popp

    -RAINA’S POV- Hearing Valen's voice, I wrenched my gaze away from his obscured nether region. I had completely forgotten where we were. “Is this your so-called date?” I wondered, dragging my eyes up the length of his body. “I think you are trying to seduce me.” A masculine satisfaction flickered in his emeralds, and he drew closer until a wafer-thin sliver of stream and water separated our bodies. “I’m always trying to seduce you.” My chest fluttered and my cheeks started to flush. A helpless giggle left me and lust for him formed in my belly. It was overwhelmingly terrifying how much I loved him. By the time I left here, I was sure to have a love hangover. For a fleeting moment, I felt his hardness brush the natural swell of my lower belly beneath the water. My thighs impulsively clenched together. I stared back into his regal features, his jet black hair flowing inches past his broad shoulders that were getting wavier from the vapors of the spring. “I’m desperately, insanely at

    -VALEN’S POV- The barrage of the shooting lightning was horridly nerve-wracking. Raina's normally smooth face was wrought with wrinkles due to an ocean of fear possessing her. “Shift now!” I commanded her with a little too much force. She winced, but obeyed. Willing the shift onwards, instantly my shoulders hunched and I collapsed forward. In a matter of seconds, my bones realigned themselves. Fur sprouted from my pores. The ticklish sensations vanished quickly as claws jutted from my limbs into enormous paws. My canines elongated and a rush of overpowering scents and hearing became predominant. Casting off the last vestiges of the shifting sensation, I suppressed Zeus' temptation to howl in excitement at beholding his beautiful oxblood wolf mate, Hera. "We must get her to safety. Concentrate." I chastised him and he agreed. Hera was extremely gorgeous, but she had dread written all over her. Crunching on the red pebbles, she padded over to me, wagging her fluffy tail.

    -VALEN’S POV- A sweet satisfaction wrapped around my heart when I saw her. “I’ve been waiting for you.” Raina cooed, patting a spot beside her. A sundry of my emotions fluttered wildly like flags in the wind. I smoothed over my hair and released a long sigh of relief. I wanted to laugh, cry, hug, and spank her all at the same time. She was in one of the chambers of the cave that was open at the top with a breathtaking view of the sky and honing the natural light. In disbelief, I paused to take in my mate’s exquisite, naked form. Sitting sideways with her legs crossed under to perfectly emphasize her sexy thighs, curtains of her burgundy hair fell over her shoulders to cover her luscious round peaks. I trailed my gaze over her curvy hips and small waist. The exotic sight of her vanquished all worries. I was one lucky bastard. She sat in the middle of a soft, colossal, gray sheepskin rug on the ground. She hunched over a silver platter of fruits, helping herself. How odd. Where d

I did not care about what was up with these two. Raina was priority. The mate bond wrenched at me in a silent cry from her that only I could hear. Missing the softness of holding her hands and basking in her endearing presence, hugging, touching, gazing—I just can't go on without it.“I'm pissed too because the future hasn't changed and at some point, you'll give the dick away.” Devin aired bluntly. “How could you? After all those times you swore to me…”“I'll never cheat on Raina.” I cut in sharply, darting daggers at him.Unconvinced, he huffed. Then he spoke again, his voice quieter. "She loves

    VALEN’S POVMy eyes snapped open, looking up at the wooden beams in the ceiling in confusion.This was Wolkrane.I can’t be here. Not when I promised Raina to be home by 9 P.M. daily. My head pounded with hazy memories, and I missed her pleasantly cool scent so badly. With her beautiful burgundy...Oh, fuck!I bolted up from the bed, and pain exploded on my side, spasming up and down my torso. Immediately, I glanced down at the three stitches that I just accidentally ripped, blood trickling down my side and into my gray sweatpants.Angry at myself for not knowing how long I’d been asleep, I yanked the IV line from my arm.Cursing silently while gritting my teeth against the agony, I barged out of the bedroom, ignoring the trail of blood I left on the umber-weave pattern of the vinyl plank flooring.Dizzy waves swept over me as I descended the stairs, determined for someone to tell me that it was a damn nightmare. That I imagined it all.“Where is she!” I roared, bulldozing into the sm

    RAINA’S POV“Kókkino, I don't know,” Gustav replied with understanding in a low voice. His words lingered, heavy with an edge of doubt. “The sword should have taken his life.”I swallowed hard and confessed dejectedly, “I wanted to believe him, but he can’t be the real Valen.”Gustav hummed thoughtfully and moved to the foot of the bed to remove my shoes.Flashes of the harrowing hurt in the last Valen’s eyes made my forlorn heart sink deeper and deeper. It seemed nearly genuine, yet it was not. It was a mask to get me to lower my guard. I was glad that I didn’t let the bond derail the mission this time.My eyes trailed to my guardian, and I expressed, “The timekeepers were so cruel. This is my ninth trial, and if he's not my Valen, he'll kill me again. As an anomaly, they've cursed me to die over and over.”“Then I will protect you,” Gustav swore, putting down my shoes at the bedside while his gaze met mine. The sincerity and promise were clear in his voice.“How long do you think I

    RAINA’S POV I lingered behind Gustav as we arrived by teleportation at a sprawling lakeside manor. With urgency, he stalked off down a corridor that cut straight through the house. I broke off into a little jog to keep up with his large strides. Walking by his side, I felt curious and apprehensive about where he had taken me. Warm tones guided me through the great hall. Feeling antsy, my head pirouetted in the unfamiliar environment. Gaping archways revealed sitting rooms, recreational rooms, a grand dining room, and others. Each was filled with soothing terra cotta tones from walls painted in red earth color. “Nice safe house,” I remarked as he led me up the winding stairs, overwhelmed by the sheer size of it.Layers of vintage finds, painted artwork, and houseplants created a classical, inviting effect across the spaces. Together with white and green accents, the wall's reddish tone produced a muted color scheme that brought a diverse range of furniture pieces in a harmoniously b

You are not needed here,” I growled, feeling my skin ripple, pinning the man in place with a murderous glare.“The nerve of that Worgen,” Zeus snarled in my head.Nyx and Zuzu swayed their attention to the obnoxious intruder, waiting for my command to attack him.“Stand down, Nyx. Do not attack him, Zuzu. Hibernate,” Raina commanded them, her back constantly bumped into my chest from her struggle against the grasp I maintained on her arms.It was a shock to see my guardians revert to a leisure position, debunking their fight mode.Raina averted her eyes to the man in full white. “Get me out of here, Gustav.”“Careful, Bluebella. Do not deliberately make me jealous. My wolf is unsettled as it is. You are mine,” I muttered into her ear, and she flinched with resistance.Swinging her sabre-rattling eyes sideways, she expostulated, “I’ll chose him a million times over you, you fake bastard!”What the hell was this?She was protecting him—choosing him?Wanting to go with

Mate!” Zeus purred, going into overdrive to touch what was ours.Thank fuck.“Ugh!” She groaned, landing face-down, and something clattered on the floor.My body jumped to life as her rich scent wrapped around the entirety of my being like thick vines.“She came back to us!” Zeus’ rear end started to twitch and wiggle in excitement to see our beautiful mate.Gladness pumped my heart wildly, and my feet moved briskly before my wolf shouted at me to go to her. Zuzu flapped her giant wings in flight towards her regular spot on a custom-designed tree branch in the corner.I rushed towards Raina, dropping to my knees and gently grabbing her shoulders to help her to stand. My heart danced with delight when the sparks erupted across my palms from the skin-to-skin contact.“She’s back,” Zeus howled in my chest with joy and enthusiasm, jumping up on his two hind legs.Raina's legs gave

    VALEN’S POVEighty-four hours.Three and a half days.It’s been that long since I’ve been home and without my precious Luna. Precious time was being wasted when I should have been able to go after her. That knowledge and helplessness weighed heavy on my chest, obstructing every labored inhale.Detached from everything, I wallowed in heart-shattering misery.With a deep scowl, I ran my thumb over the inscriptions of the golden bracelet as my mind worked overtime. My brain felt like it was on a treadmill, unable to stop.At this point, my eyes were hooded and void and my brain wasn't far from becoming the same. Frazzled and throbbing.“You’re the reason she disappeared.” Zeus snarled in my head, castigating me for putting Vaheed over our mate. He rambled, “If we weren’t away, we would have been here to stop her. I told you to leave him alone, but no, you had to go and bring him back. Are you trying to make us mateless?”My throat was too parched to argue with him.The worst had happened

My voice was incensed, and my teeth clashed together. “You let her go?”They visibly sagged under the weight of my temper. Anger pulsed through my chest, the upcoming headache didn't help his bitch fit either.“Well, I—um, I, er,” Pennelope stuttered and Devin frowned, spinning around to cup her face before facing me again.Letting out a breath of disbelief, I felt like my whole world was caving in. My vision went spotty as I pictured Raina lost and on her own in an unfamiliar world, and this witch did nothing to help her when she had the means.“It’s not that simple. I tried to stop her…” Penn explained, shaking her head, and went into more detail, stumbling over her words. “...once she saw Snow, she decided to go AWOL.”"Slow down, Penn." Devin guided me because at this point she was mumbling, and I didn

One built on apprehension and fear.They were as scared as a kitten that had just noticed the shadow of a dog’s tail lashing against a white wall. I could feel the weight of their trepidatious stares pressing against me. Their fretting, whispering thoughts practically radiated off them like static.Zeus growled low and ferociously in my chest, unsettled by the hangdog silence. The implication of guilt hung heavily in the air.My anxious eyes roamed every inch of the space, skipping through the bookshelves, futons, chairs, and stone tables seeking the one woman that my soul ached for. Seeing no trace of her, my longing hammered our bond with impatience.An outburst climbed up my throat to be lashed out, only to be hindered when Venus flew at me. I swallowed the impending words.
