COLTON’S POVAs I regain consciousness, I feel disoriented and confused. As I try to open my eyes, everything is blurry and I feel a sharp pain in my neck causing me to wince. What the hell? As my vision starts to clear, I look around and realize I’m surrounded by unfamiliar faces and the vampire lord.We’re in an unfamiliar cave as dark as midnight. The only thing illuminating it the light from the fire torches.As I lay on the ground, panic begins to settle in my chest as I remember what happened last night. I scan the room for Ryder hoping he was able to escape. What happened to him? Did they kill him? Did they capture him too? I really hope not.My neck pulses with pain as I move my body around. They bit me. Shit! This is bad. I’m surrounded by vampires and I’ve been drained of my blood. I’m weak and my werewolf senses are unresponsive. I really hope Ryder was able to get out alive.If he didn’t succeed to escape and warn Damon, then we’re done for.The unfamiliar faces that surr
MORGANA’S POVEver since the alpha came to me with his pathetic apology, I haven’t been able to think of anything else. It made me so angry that he thought he would be able to wipe away every horrible thing he has ever done with an apology.But talking to him like that made me realize one thing. He was genuine. All this time I’ve been telling myself that he was just using me, manipulating me, but when he apologized, no matter how hard I tried to ignore it, I saw something in his eyes.It was a kind of softness and vulnerability I had never seen him portray before. It didn’t make me hate him any less of course, but I just can’t help but ask myself why now? Is it because the vampires are back and the threat on his kingdom has finally knocked some sense into him?Maybe he’s scared he’ll die and he’s looking for some sort of redemption before he takes his last breath. It’s pathetic if you ask me.I’ve been brainstorming, trying to think of ways I can use the Alpha’s new weakness against h
MORGANA’S POV“Ryder, brother. Talk to me. Why do you look like that? Where’s Colton? What happened?” Damon impatiently asks as he studies his brother's looks. I stay put beside the window and watch them curiously, waiting to hear what Ryder has to say about Colton.“The vampires. They ambushed us. They took Colton Damon. They shot him with some sort of poison that paralyzed him. I couldn’t fight them off, we were outnumbered. Damon, Colton has been taken.” Ryder explains breathing heavily. He looks like he’s about to cry.A small smirk forms on my face as I hear the good news Ryder just announced. Even though I’m not the one to kill Colton myself, the fact that the vampires have him now means he is going to suffer in their hands and that makes me beyond happy.“I’m sorry I couldn’t protect him. I wasn’t strong enough.” Ryder says in a sad tone. He shouldn’t feel bad about his brother being captured. Colton was a menace and I’m sure even his brothers can testify to that. But I guess
MORGANA’S POVAs I sit in the Alpha’s bed contemplating my next move, the door slowly opens and a guard walks in with a girl. A girl with a face I remember all too well. The girl who was punished naked in front of an entire crowd. The girl who gave me half of her food and saved me from starving.The girl whose name I remember to be Chloe. The guard walks back out with no explanation and leaves the girl in the room with me. We stare at each other in confusion at first, then the girl smiles widely and rushes towards me.“Chloe?” I say as I slowly approach her. My ribs still hurt when I move around too much. “What are you doing here?”I ask the petite girl standing in front of me. She looks extremely better than the last time I saw her. Her skin has more color to it and her hair looks longer and brighter. There is no scar in sight on her skin and she’s in clean clothes.These are the advantages of the beta being away for a while. I’m sure life has been so great for Chloe, Colton’s pet, s
MORGANA’S POV “Just let me know what you want me to do.” I stare at Chloe in happiness at her statement. My face lights up in a cunning manner as I think of all the ways Chloe would be useful to me. “So I haven’t thought of anything serious yet. For now, I just know the Alpha might have feelings for me and if he does, then his guard will be down whenever he’s around me. I can find out his secrets. Which reminds me, there’s something I have to tell you about the Alpha.” I say with a whisper, lowering my voice as I speak to Chloe. “A secret?” She asks curiously, her eyes widening. “You know how the vampires have always been stronger than the werewolves? And then one day out of the blue, the werewolves come raining down on them like it was a piece of cake.” Chloe nods at me. “I’ve always wondered how they did it. It was too sudden.” Chloe states as she listens to me eagerly. “Well, the Alpha has been using vampire blood to create a drug that makes him and his brothers stronger. Tha
MORGANA’S POVDamon left this morning with Ryder and a few other guards to rescue Colton. He kept assuring me that Reece would take care of me and nothing bad would happen to me. Reece hasn’t exactly ever hurt me before, but he was being a pervert the first time I saw him. I don’t know how he will act toward me now that Damon isn’t around.I already took my bath this morning. Some guards brought food to my room as Damon ordered them to do for as long as he’ll be gone. It was a full meal and I shared it with Chloe.We’ve been talking since morning about the fact that she’s a witch and how she can get her powers back.“It’s not that easy.” Chloe says as brushes my hair for me, braiding it down my back.“Why not?” I question.“Because the spirits disconnected from me. If they feel the need to talk to me again, then they will. I told you I felt something yesterday. It means they’re ready to talk with me again so right now, we just have to wait.” Chloe explains as she glides her hands thro
MORGANA’S POV“Don’t worry Warren. The Alpha knows I know so it’s no use denying it.” I say as I follow the guy whose name, I’ve learned to be Warren. He has one of the most unique facial features I’ve ever seen. He has blonde hair long enough to reach his shoulders and icy blue eyes. He’s really cute but his face isn’t what I came here for. He looks like he’s about to jump out of his skin. “What? What do you mean he knows you know?” He has confusion and fear spread out on his face as he turns to look at me. “It doesn’t matter really. All that matters is that my hunch was right. It’s you. You’re the Alpha’s secret weapon.” I say circling him and eyeing him curiously. He lets out a sigh and places his palm on his forehead. His face falls in defeat as he takes a seat on one of the benches in the garden.“Okay, so you know. What now?” He asksI walk towards him and Chloe and I take a seat on either side of him, trapping him in the middle. He shifts his gaze from me to Chloe and then
MORGANA’S POVIt’s been a week since the Alpha left and life has never been better without him all up in my face with his awful apologies. Warren, Chloe, and I have gotten really close since then. We always meet up in the garden when we can and plot against the werewolves. Reece doesn’t trust us. He doesn’t like the fact that I’ve been hanging around Warren and Chloe a lot but he lets us be. Probably because he doesn’t see us as that much of a threat. We’re just puny little humans anyways.Something happened two days ago. Chloe had a vision. The look on her face when it happened was priceless. We were in the garden with Warren, helping him to pick out some weeds, when Chloe suddenly froze. She stayed frozen like that for about three minutes. Warren and I were getting worried but she soon came back to her senses and told us all what she saw. Apparently, I’m destined to be the savior of the human race. I know, it’s crazy. What can one tiny girl like me ever do to save the entire human
