MIRACLE
A warning flashes in Cain’s eyes, but I can’t focus on it, because I fix my gaze on Alpha Baldwin who is awfully quiet for someone who is having his head ripped off his shoulder.
A final gruesome twist and pull and Alpha Baldwin’s head comes off into Kale’s hand.
Blood sputters and splashes everywhere as Alpha Baldwin’s headless body hits the ground with a satisfying thud and his bloody head remains in Kale’s hands.
He turns around and my eyes shift to his face. I have a good look at the young boy, but then all my focus shifts to the head in his hand. Alpha Baldwin’s eyes stare back at me, unseeing and dead.
Blood drips down from his neck, hitting the floor in sweet drips. Drip, drip, drip.
I nibble on my lower lip, already finding myself getting excited to do something like that.
I can feel those hunter’s heads squashing in my hands, I can recall the sound of th
MIRACLE“ Is she hurt, Alpha? Do you want me to bring Lily? ” Selvia stops Cain and me on the way to his room.I keep my head down, unable to meet anyone’s eyes. Still, I can’t ignore the hint of worry in her voice, in her tone.“ She will be alright. ” Cain assures her and starts dragging me up the stairs.I glance at Selvia regretfully and gulp. She shoots me a worried look which makes me look away.Xavier must have told her everything through their link.I don’t deserve her worry. It’s supposed to be for the one wolf I hurt just now.Cain takes me to his room and makes me sit down on his bed. I wait for his outburst, for the scolding he is going to throw my way because I didn’t listen to him.I shouldn’t have gone to the forest, I should have stayed beh
MIRACLEMy lips meet his as a soft gesture. I plant a small kiss and lean a little back to look into his silver grey orbs.His warm breath fans my lips and his eyes meet mine for a brief moment. Then, his hands reach out to me to hold my face and his lips meet mine again with a fiery passion which causes tingles all over my body.His right hand sneaks back getting tangled in my hair and pulling me closer to him.His lips move against mine, fast and hard. I kiss him back, trying to match the intensity yet falling short once in a while.He bites, sucks and nibbles on my lips before his tongue parts my lips and ventures inside my mouth to explore with the same burning hunger.A moan escapes my mouth but gets drowned in his. My hands hold his shoulders as I get out of breath slowly.He only pulls away when I desperately need to breath.My heart is beating erratically
MIRACLE POV“ I care about you. Give me a chance, Miracle. ” He rasps in my ear, sending chills down my spine.The sincerity of his words still startles me. I don’t know how to reply to that.“ Wanna take a bath? ” I blurt out, changing the topic.He leans a little away and his face comes into my view. His silver grey orbs peer into my eyes, finding the answer I failed to provide him in words.Then, a lazy smile slowly tugs at the corner of his lips and he nods his head.“ Whatever you want. ” His smile widens.Cain gets away from me and stands by the bed while I lay there, breathing deeply for a moment.I never stood a chance at keeping my sanity before, but now, I might just go crazy faster than ever.My whole body is pulsing with my erratic heartbeat and his lingering gaze on me doesn’t help my situation a
MIRACLE“ What does this mean? ” I utter, staring right into his silver grey orbs.“ You asked me to keep her away. ” He rubs the back of his head awkwardly.I blink up at him, wondering what he is getting at. I have a hunch about what he is telling me, but I don’t want to jump to conclusions before I hear him say this.“ I had to lock her in the dungeon and Caroline bound her in there with a spell. Olivia won’t be able to use her powers or get out of the dungeons until Caroline lifts the magic. ” He discloses with an awkward smile on his lips.A wave of shock hits me. I didn’t expect this from him. He really just…locked her up to keep her away from Matthew?“ That’s - That’s…I don’t know…Isn’t this going to make Lord Rickard angry? ” His shoulders slump down at my qu
CAINPOV‘ I care about you. ’ Hunter mimics my words in my mind making me shake my head.‘ Couldn’t you say you love her like a man? Why beat around the bush? ’ He mocks, repeating the same thing over and over again.‘ Just a day ago, she thought I hated her for good and now you want me to suddenly go and tell her that I love her? That might give her a heart attack or worse…She might think I am trying to hurt her once again and it’s all just a game for me when it’s not. ’ I shout down the link with Hunter who goes silent all of a sudden.“ I can come later if you are thinking about something important, Alpha King. ” Kale’s voice pulls me out of my trance.I lift my gaze to him, my lips pursing on their own. The boy is exceptionally rude.“ You can take over the Greenfield Pack as their Alpha t
MIRACLE POV“ What are you doing seriously? I don’t get it at all! ” Matthew hisses while he paces back and forth right in front of me.Earlier, he brought me back from Cain’s room and sat me down on the couch before he started scolding me. From that time, he has been pacing back and forth.Seeing him like this makes my head hurt.I look down at my hands which are placed in my lap. I can still feel Cain’s touch all over my body and his scent is lingering everywhere on me.Everyone gave me odd looks when Matthew took me back. I think I heard some whispers as well.She is Alpha King’s whore. Some bitch had muttered and then laughed. I dismissed her as a jealous bitch, of course, but it still stings a little bit.“ Say something, Miracle. ” Matthew stops in front of me.I pick up my head and look at him. “ He car
MIRACLE POVThe next two days pass by quickly.Cain didn’t get the time to see me, but he did shoot me a glance whenever he saw me and then he always smiled at me.His ‘later’ really stretched too far.But, I can’t blame him. It’s a lot hosting the mate festival.He has a lot to do and besides, he has to keep an eye on everyone.It’s enough for me that he shoots me a warm promising smile whenever we see each other from afar. His smile assures me that everything is real and he will eventually come to me.It’s the last day of the mate festival today. All unmated wolves went to the run today morning for the last time and many of them found their mates.Finding a soul’s other half is such a beautiful feeling. You feel complete when you know you have someone to stay by you
MIRACLE POVAnd that’s how the moment of happiness was cut short for me and Cain.Cain rushed out as soon as he gave me the warning to stay inside. The cry was loud in the air ‘ We are under Attack. ’Elijah has come or perhaps he sent his puppets to cause some damage.The previous calm atmosphere disappeared and everyone had rushed out, except for me and a few who can’t fight. Selvia is one of those who stayed behind, because she is pregnant.“ We will deal with this. ” She has been assuring me and herself by repeating this.I know it’s a soothing lie.She knows and I know too. Judging from the growls, howls and roars coming from outside, we both can tell shit is going down and we both are locked in here while the rest of the wolves fight.I want to see Matthew, that was my first thought when Cain left me here. I couldn’t find my brother anywhere though.T
MIRACLE POVMy mind was drifting off to some weird memories, the past. There was an element of darkness swirling deep inside somewhere while I thought about my childhood, my father, my brother then everything changed in my view and I thought about the day I was thrown out of my own pack house.Lost. Alone. Miserable. That’s what I had become, but then, I refused to let this life hit me hard and throw me off my feet.I will help myself, I will not give up…That’s what I had thought and I had made it through everything all alone. I am strong, I had whispered this to myself many times.Then, I met Cain.He was not what I had expected, the rainbows and sunshine, the answer to all my questions, my saviour.He hurt me on great levels, but I still continued to love him. My stubborn side hated him though. But the hopef
MIRACLE POVBefore I can even blink, Cain takes his hand out of my hold and then runs ahead.A war breaks out around us. Hybrids are adamant on killing the werewolves, but we all know they are our own people so we won’t hurt them anymore.“ You will stay out of this. ” Matthew warns me before he takes off behind Cain who is aiming right for Elijah.Elijah sees Cain coming. Instead of running like he always did before, Elijah seems to want to end this today.Just like us.I do what I did the last time during the war. I make it to different hybrids and watch them freeze, before I twist their necks.This takes my focus off Cain and Matthew. I catch glimpse of them after a while and they are both fighting Elijah.Elijah is easily handling both of them. The training of centuries and the unnatural power is really helping him in this.I shake my
MIRACLE POV~A WEEK LATER…“ I don’t think it’s a great idea. ” I repeat the same thing like a broken radio.Cain turns to look at me, an annoyed look painted over his face and held into his eyes.“ Come on. Do you want to fight again? ” He groans, focusing back on the road.I give him a once over look and the previous night flashes before my eyes. We had sex until morning after arguing for two hours…I cringe at the thought and look away before we start something like this again.I look out of the window and see all the familiar roads. We are once again going back to the dark forest and it’s not making me feel any good.The first time was creepy enough in my opinion, but apparently, we have no way other than doing this.I inhale deeply and glance at Cain. “ I never thought Matthew would this. ”There is worry an
MIRACLE POVHow can I be so oblivious to this? I often wondered what Cain felt for me, but the thought that he loved me had never crossed my mind…Perhaps, I was too insecure to realise he loved me and all his actions were his display of love for me.I don’t know where to fit this newfound wholesome feeling now. He loves me and I am not stuck in a never ending cycle of one-sided love anymore.Consider me impatient or maybe selfish, but I want him to mark me and mate with me right now and right here just so nothing can ever separate us again. I am afraid of time, love and circumstances…and I desperately need the stability now.“ Do you want to mark me? ” I breath the question against his lips, my eyes filled with hope.Cain goes still, his eyes fixed at me, equally unmoving. His chest is not even moving up and down which means he is holding his breath back.Say yes. I plead through my eyes while
CAIN POVThere it is. I told her. Finally.The feel is supposed to be like ‘yaay’ but seeing her blank expressions throws me off the track of all expectations.I stare at her, my breath stuck in my throat and all she does is…acting the same way as me.“ I told this to the Secret keeper. ” I mumble, still expecting some kind of reaction.Something…My shoulders drop down a little. Anything at least? I squint my eyes, observing her dumb face.Her eyes are wide open, round and unblinking. Her kissable beautiful pink lips are a little parted as she inhales and exhales softly.Okay. Now what? I wonder as I raise my hand to her cheek, wanting to bring her down to this world.It’s not supposed to be such a shock right? I told her I cared about her a lot of times.“ Miracle…” I whisper her sweet name, my fingers landing on her soft cheek.Sudde
MIRACLE POVI felt my skin peeling off. I couldn’t understand what was happening to me and why it was happening in the first place.My soul was slowly ripping itself apart from my body and I could feel it deep inside me as I bled.I was calling out to Cain, but he was not coming and the pain was not allowing me to open my eyes and find him.He was there. Near me. I could sense him, but I could not see him or hear him at all.The constant ringing in my ears was growing louder and louder by the moment while blood began to coat my body as a new skin.I never felt this kind of unbearable pain before. Not even when Elijah tortured me. It was like I wanted to die so I could free myself from this misery.Then, I just lost my consciousness and everything went black. It was a relief that I didn’t have to endure such a horrible agony for much longer.******This always happens to me and it’s even getting normal n
CAIN POVI didn’t know how I was going to deal with the secret keeper. A secret I never told anyone? I couldn’t think of something like that.…And even if there is something like that, I am not going to tell something like that to the minion of God of Chaos. I can’t invite home something more horrible than Elijah.That’s why I wanted to go alone, but Miracle came along. Gratefully, she listened to me and stayed behind.I went to the forest, a creepy feeling crawling up my spine with every step I took forward.Eventually, I ended up in front of the old cottage in the dark forest. There is a thick fog surrounding everything here and it makes my vision hazy.Like the secret keeper knew I was here, she opened the cottage’s door and stepped outside.Surprise overcame my expressions. Amanda
MIRACLE POVDay turns into night and then night turns into the new day.Cain still doesn’t know what he wants to tell the secret keeper.I wish I had a secret of my own so I could tell it to the secret keeper. That way I would have been able to save Cain from this trouble.Cain have been constantly driving and we only stopped to eat something in the neutral territories.Cain didn’t sleep through the night and I couldn’t sleep either so we both just stayed awake in silence. I know we need to get this done and then we need to get back to the pack so nothing goes wrong there.“ How far is it? ” I ask, yawning.“ Ten minutes. ” He shrugs his shoulders.I turn my head toward him, a lumping forming in my throat after hearing his answer.“ You came up with something t
MIRACLE POVCain turned out to be very serious about the ‘not gonna talk to you’ threat. He didn’t even come back in the night and stayed Moon Goddess knows where.For a change, I didn’t leave to look for him. I felt too tired for it.The strange conversation I had with Amanda bothered me throughout the night and didn’t let me sleep even for a moment. Curiosity is killing me slowly.The morning came and I went down to the study room to find Cain finally, but I found Xavier instead. Cain had asked Xavier to tell me that we were leaving right away as it was 2 days drive to the dark forest from here.To my surprise, Cain and I are leaving alone. No one else is coming with us and before I could ask Xavier about it, he told me on his own that it’s best to leave alone because it will help us remain unnoticed for a long time.The fewer people, the better chance at staying undetected by any other
