DAMON’S POVI still can’t touch Morgana. She’s still asleep. She looks alive. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever seen her more alive. She’s still glowing and it feels like the red light emanating from her only seems to glow brighter with time. Each time I try to touch her, I’m pushed backwards by an electric shock. I’m scared. It’s been two days. What if she stays like this forever? What if she has been pulled into an oblivion she can’t get out of? What if I lose her?Robert has been much help in training the humans and most of them can properly handle a sword already. Most of them learn fast and fight like real soldiers now. I curl my fingers as I remember Morgana’s soft skin grazing mine and I bow my head slightly at the impossibility of feeling her now. I miss her and I want her to wake up. My eyes are two cracked windows as I stare at her. The chaotic state she’s in. A warm breeze startles my skin and I rub my forehead with my fingers as I walk towards the window to stare at my g
ALANA’S POV“We have to find a way to get out of here.” Esther says suddenly and I look at her wide eyed as I think of the possibility of both of us leaving the forbidden forests together. I agree with her of course. It’s like we’re thinking the same thing. The witches want to commit a taboo. They want to wipe away the werewolves from the earth and that is not okay. The vampires are a different case. They don’t have souls but the werewolves do and if the chosen one sided with them, then I believe it was for a great cause. “Do you really think it’s a good idea. What if we get caught?” I whisper to Esther as both of us sit on my little bed in my room. We casted a protection spell so no one could hear what we were saying. “We won’t get caught Alana. We can do it if we work together. That girl, Chloe said she got here with the help of a teleportation spell. We can do the same if we combined our powers.” Esther says and I revel at the possibility of it. A teleportation spell is not som
MORGANA’S POVI still can’t believe what I found out. This woman standing before me. This presence that sends shivers up my spine. This incredible power is supposed to be my mother. She said her name is Agni. It’s a beautiful name. “I need to know where you’ve been all this time. I need answers. Why didn’t you reach out to me? Why did you leave? How did you meet my father?” The questions flow like water from my mouth. I want to know everything. My origins. How I ended up with the people I grew up with. Why she didn’t reach out to me before now.“I will answer all your questions dear but you must know that you cannot be in here for longer. Time works differently here. You’ve only been here for two hours but in the mortal realm, that is two days.” Agni, or better yet my mom explains to me and my eyes widen in shock at her statement. It’s not possible. I have been unconscious for two days? I have been away from Damon for two days? My heart constricts as I think of all the possible thin
MORGANA’S POVI open my eyes with a tear falling down my cheeks. Agni, the goddess of fire and my birth mother said my parents found peace. She has no idea how much that little information makes me so happy. I had always wondered where my parents went to after their death. I had always wished and hoped that they were happy wherever the after life took them. That they were at peace and Agni just confirmed it. I let the tears fall from my eyes. Not tears of sadness but tears that say I am letting go of all the hurt, all the pain. From now on, when I think about my parents, I will not remember them as people who got burnt when the werewolves attacked, but as people who despite everything loved me unconditionally and that will be my strength. I will hold on to hope and soon, the world will be a better place for all of us. I notice three figures standing in front of me. they haven’t noticed I am awake yet. They seem to be distracted by something on the floor. “Damon?” I say with a low v
MORGANA’S POV“God, I missed you.” Damon wraps his arms around me immediately we’re alone in my room and I giggle as he lifts me off the floor and spins me around. He plants my feet on the ground and kisses me all over the face until my entire face is red from blushing. “No, seriously. I thought I was going to die. I kept watching you and waiting for you to wake up and you were glowing brighter than never before and it broke my heart when I realized I couldn’t even touch you. I was losing my mind baby.” Damon says pouting like a baby and I think he’s so cute. I intertwine our fingers and place a kiss on his cheek. “What do you mean you couldn’t touch me?” I ask him curiously.“Your skin shocked me. It was like your aura was repelling mine.” He explains and I have no idea what he’s talking about. I didn’t even know what was happening to my body while I was asleep. “I’m so sorry I couldn’t protect you, love. I messed up. I let you get hurt but I promise you, it will never happen agai
WARREN’S POVI feel like I get more powerful every day. With every passing second, my rage and anger and strength just gets even more powerful and my mind is set on one thing. Killing Damon and making Morgana mine. This isn’t even about saving the humans anymore. This has gotten personal for me. This is about me, Damon and Morgana. I can’t wait for my collision with Damon. I’ve been anticipating, waiting for the moment I rip his heart out. I want him dead. All I can do is think about Morgana, I think I might explode if I don’t have her by my side soon. I don’t know what the serum did to me but with every passing moment, my emotions only get even more heightened and I want blood. I want death. I want blood and I have my mind set on one person. Or maybe three. Damon and his nuisances of brothers. I’m going to kill them all. When I killed Reece, it felt so good and I wanted more. I wanted more hearts in my palms. My mind drifts to the old me sometimes, but I can’t remember who I was b
CHLOE’S POVAlana and Esther escaped and the supreme witch was not at all happy about it. Alana’s and Esther’s mothers have been on edge since. Wondering where their daughters went to. Wondering if they’re even alive. I can’t believe the two witches who have been training all this time to offer their power to the witches have decided to side with the traitor. “I think I know where they went. It’s obvious. They haven’t liked me from the moment I stepped foot in here claiming to be the new savior. They are not okay with the plan we have on annihilating the werewolves. They went to join the girl from their visions. They went to join and help Morgana.” I say as I stand in the temple in front of the supreme witch and the other elders. Alana’s and Esther’s mothers stand at the side, tears in their eyes“We don’t need the girls anymore. You received great power from your mother.” The supreme witch says. “It is not enough. Morgana stole half of those powers and I want them back.” I say in
MORGANA’S POVIt’s calm. Too calm. And it’s making me anxious because I don’t know what our enemies are doing. I wish I had some sort of view on them. I wish I knew what they were planning so we would be ready before they strike. I haven’t spoken to Alana and Esther since they got here and I think they’re scared or shy or something because they’ve been holed up in Damon’s room since they got here.“I’m going to talk to the young witches who got here. I need help with the powers I got from Chloe's mom. I need to learn how to properly harness and use it.” I say to Damon as I lay in bed on his chest. He glides his fingers through my hair and makes a sound. I squirm out of his hold and place my chin on his chest, looking up at him. “Open your eyes sleepy head.” I say and he smirks, still with his eyes closed. He flutters his eyes open and grins at me so wide that I can’t help but blush. “What was that about witches?” He asks. “I said I want to talk to Alana and Esther about the powers
NARRATORThe war was finally over. And though it was hard for everyone, they all found a way to cope. After Damon’s death, Morgana decided she would use her grief to make herself stronger. She hadn’t yet realized the amount of work that had to put in after a war was over. They had to build new houses. Plant crops, tend to the wounded. But Morgana, Colton, Ryder and Robert took it all with their heads raised high. When so many people are counting on you, Morgana realized, the only option you have is to be strong. Morgana thrived. The werewolf nation thrived as Ryder was names the new Alpha. It was normally supposed to be Colton because he was the beta and next in line, but they all agreed Ryder was more suitable for the title. After all Ryder was more intelligent that Colton was when it came to matters as such. Ryder was more compassionate and just generally a better person, Colton concluded. And although, Colton is a better person today, he still needs a lot of work before he can f
DAMON’S POVI knew this would happen. Sooner or later, I knew all my sins would catch up to me. I have hurt too many people. Killed too many people and I deserve this. Evil should not have a place in this world. A world which contains someone as beautiful as Morgana. She was the light to my darkness. She is everything I ever hoped for. Although it was short-lived, I adored every moment spent with her. She came into my life and taught me something powerful, something that changed my entire life’s trajectory. In a cruel, and wicked world, she taught me a better way to live. She taught me how to love. I couldn’t believe it first, when my feelings for her were reciprocated with such a willingness to forgive me. I was almost tempted to take back everything I said to her because I didn’t feel I deserved her. She was too much light for me and I was scared my darkness would poison her. I still have no idea how she was ever able to forgive me for what I did to her. I still cannot believe th
MORGANA’S POVMy mother said there is no way to save Damon. I must have been in the spirit realm for a few hours comparting it to the human world. I feel so useless, so desperate for anything. Anything that can help Damon. I wasn’t sure about Chloe said because it felt so unreal so I even consulted her mother and she assured me that Chloe’s curse on Damon was real.She sent me back and urged me to say my goodbyes to him before it’s too late. I have no idea why everyone is so determined to give up. they just expect me to let Damon die? Without trying every single thing I can to save him? How can they even expect me to do that?I didn’t realize how dark it had gotten. How far I had gone away. And then it hits me. All what happened during the day suddenly hits me like a tsunami. Damon is going to die and I should be with him right now. I should be spending the last moments I have with him but here I am, looking for a cure that doesn’t exist.I just can’t accept this and I don’t know if I
MORGANA’S POVAs soon as Chloe closes her eyes, she vanishes in the same exact way that the deity did. She turns into ash on the ground and vanishes as the wind carries her ashes away and Warren screams into the ground with the most agonizing wail I have ever heard.“You killed her. You fucking killed her!” He screams at me standing up from the ground and pointing his index finger angrily at me.“All she wanted to do was get justice and you killed her Morgana.” Warren falls to his knees. “Why did you kill her?” He sobs and falls to his knees to the ground.I can tell he has no fight in him anymore. He knows everything is over now and he knows he has lost. Putting up a fight will be foolish of him. Besides, I am not in the mood to have small talk with him or fight with him about something we have spoken about a million times. A crowd of werewolves and humans walks towards us from the castle shouting and roaring cheers of victory, already celebrating the freedom that we very much now h
MORGANA’S POVWhen the bright light clears, I see Chloe standing in the distance way outside the castle gates. I stare down at my hands in disbelief, unable to get it through my head that I was able to send her off that far. I guess I’m stronger than I thought. If I can keep her out of castle grounds then I won’t hold back. I’ll be able to use as much of my magic as I want to.“I’m going to go after Chloe.” I scream at the top of my lungs to the boys who are busy fighting off and knocking out the werewolves under Chloe’s control.Damon tries to come with me but I shake my head and he frowns. I want him to be with his brothers right now. They may be strong but the werewolves are numerous and Colton and Ryder will need all the help they get.He runs towards me desperately as if I would evaporate if he didn’t get to me fast enough. He breathes heavily and punches a werewolf in the face that came after him. He grabs my face and plants a strong kiss on my lips. I taste sweat and dirt and l
MORGANA’S POVWhat Damon and I saw when we finally got into his room isn’t at all what we were expecting. My hope was that we would see Chloe sitting on a chair nearby with that evil smile on her face waiting for us and I would send the signal to Colton and Ryder to start making preparations to open the gates.But when we walked in the only person we saw was Warren and I could not believe my eyes. The person standing in front of us right now looks like Warren, but if Warren felt dark before, he feels darker even now.I want to launch for him and rip is head of his neck but I hesitate, because I have no idea what Chloe has done to him. it is very clear from the aura coming off him that Chloe has messed with him even more because he feels so powerful and I can tell Damon has sensed it too because he places himself slightly in front of me.We don’t know what Warren is capable of right now and charging towards him blindly can turn out to be fatal so we need to be smart about this and calc
COLTON’S POV“Hey, do you think they’re going to be okay?” Ryder asks me as we make our way through the tunnels. There’s a path that leads directly towards the castle gates and hopefully, there won’t be a lot of guards guarding it so we can get it open with no problems.We reach an opening and make it onto the castle grounds not too far away from the main gate. I can see guards stationed at random spots eyeing nothing in particular. They all look dead an empty, under Chloe’s abominable spell. “They’ll be fine. Damon and Morgana are both smart and strong. Nothing is going to happen to them.” I say to Ryder, our voices barely above a whisper to avoid drawing attention to ourselves.“Are you saying that to convince me or yourself?” Ryder asks.“What does it matter Ryder? They’ll be fine, I know it.” I say getting irritated by his tone. I can’t even begin to thin or imagine that something might go wrong with Damon and Ana. I need them to come back alive. I don’t know if I’ll survive thi
DAMON’S POVIt’s time for everything to go down just how we planned. We have taken every precaution necessary and yet I still feel like there is something missing. There is a creeping fear climbing up my back that I cannot seem to shake off and it’s driving me insane. Morgana and I are supposed to distract Chloe and try to break her spell on the others while Colton and Ryder find a way to break the gates open and evacuate the humans. There are two options. We either find a way to get Chloe out of the castle so that everyone remains unharmed and take the fight far away. But if that’s not possible then that will leave us with the second option. Fighting right here in the castle and evacuating as many humans as we can. Morgana thinks she can get Chloe out with a teleportation spell but I don’t know if she’s strong enough to manage a spell like that again. She just teleported us back here and I don’t know if it is wise for her to do another teleportation spell in such a short time rang
MORGANA’S POVColton and Ryder are gearing up and wearing some fighting clothes they found here in the secret room in the tunnels. I haven’t had a chance to talk to Damon properly. This entire war has put a strain on our relationship and I miss him so much. I can see how stressed he is. How much he doesn’t want me to see how stressed he is.Damon has never been one to seek help in anything he does. He has a habit of getting things done himself and I really wish sometimes he would open up about somethings. He just tries so hard to be strong for everyone and he doesn’t let anyone see how much he struggles. “Hey.” I say walking up to him as he dresses up, and I can’t help but think that in all the months I have known Damon, I have never seen him in any attire quite like this one. It adds a bit of seriousness to his aura and I know I shouldn’t be thinking about it now but he literally looks the most handsome and sexiest I have ever seen him. The way the muscles of his biceps strain aga
