Vivian's point of view...
It was unbelievable! Where we stopped, we stayed rooted there for almost a minute. Everyone had their gazes fixed in the front while what i desired to see at the moment was only— Ryley's face. He had some of the expressions that I have never noticed on his face.
It was the pain of losing something. Although he did not lose anything but what we could see at the moment was no less than a trauma. It was the worst way of torturing someone, especially a wolf. A mate.
There was Valen wrapped in a sticky web with just her head visible. Her face was not quite visible as it was covered with her hair. The sight was not only shocking but scaring. If not for me but for Ryley. He was seeing her with tear filled eyes.
Even the tree was very much sca
71Third person's point of view...Looking at everyone's expression it was obvious that they have never observed such scene ever. There was dark blackness dancing in the mid air before it stopped and with a big blast. The fear of the dark was a common one.One of the reasons why people are scared of darkness is that our pupils play tricks on us. Our mind is so quizzical that it gives different things a different shape when the lights are low. However, what they were seeing was not any trick played by their mind it was fucking true."Oh man!" Zander cried when the dark fog before them cooed and turned into a shape of human.Dark, shadowy, humanoid figure looked extremely terrifying! The black flames that ignited from its shoulder, it made it look way mo
72Perhaps it was the fear of seeing my friend lose her mate!Yes, we all knew Vivian was Hazel's mate, but we never considered him important ever. She loved Ryley and Ryley loved her. Both of them were quite serious that every time we saw them we were sure they would make a good pair together.That is true moon goddess gives you a mate. However, it is also not hidden that if that mate does not suit you or you don't want them due to some reasons then you can choose a mate for yourself. But the emotions and powers will not be as effective as it could have been with your destined mate.Ryley and Hazel were aware of that and after having a good conversation about it they decided to take their relation on another level. Hazel wanted Ryley and not Vivian. Alas today, just looking at the situation I pitied my friend and Viv
73Valen's point of view...'Get up Valen, get up! Ryley is in danger, get up.''"You stupid girl, get up. This is not your fucking bedroom that you are sleeping so peacefully. Get up you crazy woman!'Something was ringing in my mind. I trembled frequently not knowing what was happening around me. Just that my eyes were tight close and distant noises of someone's whimpers and painful cries resonated in my ear drums.I wished to see who the owner of them was. Unfortunately, my lashes were so damn tightly closed that I cannot open them. On top of that the land was invariably vibrating. Was that because of earth quake? I had no idea. It increased once I difficultly proceeded my right arm from its place.
74"We are here Valen, just a little more. Stay put. Hmm." Holding Valen close near his heart Ryley walked with his shaking legs further.They were walking on the street leading them to her house. The roof was visible to them. Valen hugged him tight keeping her skull on his shoulders. She was happy. The smile of contention on her lips was worth watching. "Valen." As soon as they arrived at the fence side surrounding the front part of Ryley's house, Jason came hastening to them.Seeing her father Ryley quickly put her down carefully, he made sure she was not hurt. "Dadda!" Valen squealed hiding her face in his shoulder and burst into tears.They were being watched by his gang from the window of his room. Ryley saw how Hazel waved at him with a big smile and simply ignored her. Hazel felt bad. Even so she assumed that h
75"Sure, you want to stay alone for sometime?" Dadda asked me standing at the door of my room.Nodding with a chuckle I signalled him to leave. "Alright. Just give me a call if you need anything, take rest." He saluted at me before leaving my room.As soon as the door of my room closed shut I moved my gaze to the window. I was asleep when dadda bought me home. I don't know when did my eyes give up and I fell asleep. Otherwise, I was waiting for Ryley to appear... And do that I can talk to him.My head still hurts. I have been thinking too much about it all. After all it is necessary as I know what is approaching the both of us. "Ryley Shine... I so hate you. You are indeed a bastard!" reminiscing the moments of the afternoon I can only smile.Agreed that I was worried
76Ryley's point of view..."You are heartless Ryley Shine ... You ruined her life Ryley. If you knew that a mate is very important in a wolf's life then why did you not let Vivian woo Hazel. Wasn't she his mate?"Valen's words rang in my ears constantly. I came to the highway leading to woodland via running. Shine was getting angrier than I was.But on a serious note, I wanted to counter him. Yeah, I would love to. Didn't he bother me when I hated Valen! Then now why was he not feeling bad for Hazel.'That's because it was you who started all this. I have always told you that I feel for Valen, OUR MATE. Your anger on her was so much that you just decided to date another girl over her. So you should take the blame and get everything corrected or else y
77Third person's point of view...Sometimes we trust some people too much that even when they are telling us the truth right from their heart, it seems like a mere joke to us.And indeed the same was happening with Ryley. He blinked his eyes looking envied of Zander listening to his words. "Are you joking right!" he asked again sitting straight.He crossed his legs and sat erect while his pupils eagerly read Zander's face that was void if any expressions. It was hard to spot any expression on his face. Zander just looked away biting the corner of his lips." No I am not!" he replied to his best friend without looking towards him.Alas, as unfortunate as it seemed it was though real. His confession was real but Ryley cann
78Coslen Hall, of Alpha Hercules territory gleamed with light. As far as eyes can travel, there were rice rights blanketing the hall.From the top ceiling to the walls, all of it was decorated like a bride on the occasion of Christmas Eve. Although they were wolves by existence, they celebrated this day with zeal.All comes from hierarchy, as it is clear. Alpha Hercules Shine celebrated this day every year with great enthusiasm. His mixed beliefs in Christ could be seen just by looking at the decoration of the pack's traditional hall where marriages and other important functions are held."Quick quick... The alphas and the others will be here soon." He clapped his palms twice watching his active soldiers do the decoration of the tables."Dad, check this starter drink.
chapter 92 "What is it, Dadda?" She calmly asked. Valen had this unusual feeling engulfing her body right after the moment she set her eyes on the alpha from the neighboring pack. She had not failed to register the sympathy in his eyes that he showed while talking to her during his introduction. She had heard it from Zander that there was an alpha friend of Ryley's father who helped Ryley rescue Valen, and today she saw him too. He was cool. His face was beautiful just like any other alpha like he was gifted with a gorgeous face by the moon goddess. His eyes held unsaid curiosity every time they looked at Valen. She liked the way he smiled at her but hated to see the atmosphere that varied after his arrival. Valen watched her Dadda twist his lips with a small smile. She never saw him acting so rigid before. There has to be some cause that was making him behave like that.
Bonus 2 (mbb)"Are you sure??" Jason inquired looking at Ryley's face in amusement as he nodded his head in a no. "You really don't feel anything?""No, I don't feel anything!" Ryley repeated his words to confirm it.Jason batted his lashes for a second and then diverted his eyes to his left to look at Ryley's father, "That is strange but awesome!" He exclaimed, taking off his spectacles, and placing it on the table across from him.Quietness blanketed the hall that was filled with alpha, his luna, the beta and his beta mate along with Ryley's friends in Jason's house. The news of Ryley's awakening from the coma brought about a wave of happiness.As the morning crept in, Alpha Hercules informed his beta and all of hi
Chapter 90/bonus chapter.***Soft rays of the sun crept inside Valen's room through the window. They filtered through the smallest holes of the thin curtain and spread, and cascaded on the tiles of her room.She stirred in her sleep as some memories of Ryley crossed her mind. She saw him hugging her protectively while his eyes fearfully looked before them. Valen saw themselves in the same place as that of that night in the forest when they lost Vivian during the perilous fight with Zalreth.Her lashes stuck closer, creating wrinkles on her forehead. Her facade was covered with sweat as Valen witnessed something hitting right through Ryley's chest until his clutch around her let loose and he fell beneath."Ryley!!!" She sat up on the bed with a jolt.Her wide eyes looked in the front while she grasped for air. Valen batted her lashes in order to
89Third person's point of view...Pupils fixed at the house across, Valen nibbled on her Lower lip. Nervousness was visible on her cheeks. She was trembling badly. The forming salinity of her weeping tasted bitter in her mouth. Now even her appearance seemed asking for mercy."I can't go inside Zander, I just can't." Her legs took some steps backwards as Valen cried.They were standing in the front of alpha Hercules' bungalow. The open window of Ryley's bedroom was where her irises continuously gawked. She was not ready to see him in the condition.Seeing him bedridden was the last thing she desired to see. Leave that, she even regretted agreeing to Zander and coming here with him."It's okay Valen, let's go inside. I promise nothing will happen." Trying to fit her slender palm within his, Zander assured her.He discerned how gravely she paled. She was not ready. It was though required for her to go inside. Only he knows how he convinced Jason to let her come with him.She is not unde
88"At least eat something Valen. Will your hungry stomach bring Ryley or Vivian back to you! Come on, show some bravery. You are a wolfs daughter, you have to be strong. This is nothing Valen. You have not seen the triumph yet and I don't even want you to see that. At least, you can stay strong. For Ryley." Jason caressed his daughter's hair as she was sitting on the railing of the window staring the darkening clouds.From last two weeks she has been sitting like this only. Her once chiming room have fallen quiet. The Valen who only knew how to laugh and keep other laughing— was lost.Vivian's death left her in deep misery. More than Ryley, the loss of a good and saviour friend traumatised her. It was an agony, he died for that mate who never loved him.Even Hazel, she realized his love while
87Two weeks later,"Alpha, the school will have the exams conducted from next week. And Principal wants to meet you for some time discussion." Keeping aside his files and removing his artificial specs Alpha Hercules allowed the watcher to bring the Principal inside.He was devoid of any expressions. Just that the life was going on after that unfortunate day.Yeah, two week to that cursed night and a lot has changed.The joy and glamour from within the Alpha's house have died. Not only did the same happened to his friends but also Valen, his mate.Some incident leave infinite marks on your memories. They are so strong and unbearable that the more you try to get rid of them the closer they get to your heart. You cannot esc
86Hazel's point of view...I never liked his eyes as they always held an unspoken emotion towards me.I was also dreaded by them since I knew my one view at them... And I would be spelled.No doubts he loved me, I had understood that right on that night when he had sneaked into my room and Forcibly had sex with me.However, it was not a forced sex though as I had wilfully granted him the permission to invade my limits.He never got to mark me. I never let him to. Even then, the pull was too strong that I cannot do anything when he came around.His smell was the first thing I would get to inhale whenever he neared me.A
85Valen's emotions were put at stake. This was unbelievable! She had thought it was Ryley who kept following her and stalking her all this time. But to her astonishment, it was this creature.His brown eyes was something she spotted many times in the darkness, and she thought it was him only who had always followed her day and night. But seeing this creature before her she can only imagine the worst now.It was so fucking unbearable as all this while she was being stalked by an entity who not Ryley. Her eyes blurred with new tears as she saw Ryley struggling to free himself from the red rope that was clutching him.Their love was put to the test of time. Zalreth was unstoppable. He was constantly chanted mantras in his language bringing more and more of red smoke to cover the area.&n
84His feet hit the ground under the dead silence. It was pitch dark with no source of light except the beam of moon light declining below on the land surface from between the trees. Ryley had the amethyst stone for the lightning purpose, he did not use it though.The reason was clear as anything— because, Zalreth sent his another message while Ryley was on his path to reach the woods land. The message was not really a message but a command that certainly directed him to not bring any source of light with him.It was the full moon night, and today, as per the details he had got from the library of Africa, was the night when Zalreth can acquire powers. That powers can come from the Rex Stone... That was why he asked for it today by any how. And he knew he can only get it if he takes away the rebellious Ryley's mate with himself.
