The kidnappers managed to break in through Isabelle's rickety window. The security concerns and the minimal lighting in her cramped bedrooms make their actions easier without being caught by the pack members who are on guard."Isn't she declared herself as the Alpha's mate but why was she put in this kind of ugly room?" One of the three kidnappers grumbled lowly.They were almost old men with scars everywhere. Bulky tall body. Block hair. Rogues who work for their masters. They earn money by doing this kind of illegal work."Yeah, how do I know? This could be Alpha's punishment because she's being so presumptuous. Alpha usually has a lot of mistresses""You're right. It would be easier for us too if it turns out that this one isn't Alpha's favorite. We can escape smoothly without any obstcle"The three of them gulped at the sight of a delicate figure lying on a shabby narrow bed. Isabelle's blanket slid down to her waist.The sleeveless nightgown exposed her smooth arms. She looked so
In the midst of the engulfing silence and then a scream that suddenly broke the mute around them Isabelle found herself trying to move desperately. The air is getting too stuffy. She stiffened as soon as she heard the sound of slashing weapons"Holy fuck" A cursed voice from one of the Rogues made her flinch "Who the fuck is that one?!"Isa felt around her running topsy-turvy. Their formation completely dissolved.Two men were assigned to carry the sack, they took out their dagger and formed a stance. Left her and dropped her sack on the ground. Isabelle hissed stifled as pain hit her as her body hit the ground. Something hard and solid hit her temple.In the midst of their battle Alpha Victor was already surrounded by three corpses. He gritted his teeth holding back the turbulent emotions. The blade of his long silver sword was covered in hot blood. But he didn't stop. He lunged again and this time his slash drew one of the Rogues trying to fight him."You are lowlifes" he growled
The entire castle's occupants immediately rush out as soon as the Alpha arrived. Loud murmurs sounded boisterous when they see Victor's horse entering the front gate."Who's that he brought?" The crowd of maids whispered."Isn't that the Omega girl?"Yes. They said someone kidnapped her from her room earlier. Alpha Victor immediately left his job and went out looking for her"Although they were worried that no one would dare to approach. They already understand very well the temperament of the Alpha. Victor doesn't like to be approached when he's frantic.Judging from the stiff expression and the reddened eyes the man was currently in, it was certain what kind of mood the Alpha was in right now.He seemed to hug Isabelle's body while the other hand holding the reins.The other Omegas and Gammas approach him intending to help him bring Isabelle. But Victor brushed them all off. He didn't seem he want to let anyone help him.The news has spread. From the Witch Pavilion where the witch w
Violet POV.My beautiful sleep was forcefully disperse when Ema shook my shoulder. It's been a while and the woman doesn't seem like she's going to let my slumber continue.Geez is it even morning?"Lady Violet wake up" she now pushed my wide thick blanket aside.I groaned and stretched my body lazily. Reluctant to leave the comfort of my bed"Until when do you want to sleep any longer?"Slowly I opened my eyes.She spoke in a tone as if I had been asleep for half a century. Reminds me of my mother. My adopted human mother every time she wakes me up to go to school.I woke up completely because I didn't want to get lost in that thought "Ema you are really annoying""I was afraid you might faint""I don't, I'm just sad"She paused for a moment "we sleep longer when we are sad""correct"I spend my days like this. I became like a nocturnal animal. I will sleep soundly from sunrise to sundown. Skipping meals and waking up when the moon appears only to cry all night then fall asleep agai
Violet POVHe gave me a very annoying stupid grin. As if my anger was consolation for him.Hold Violet. Don't get carried away. Don't let him entertain because I can't control my emotions.I neutralized any turmoil and resisted the urge to punch him in the face. The face I used to think was so handsome.I sighed. Don't judge me. Everyone has their own stupid phase."What are you doing here Maxon?""Don't be so mean honey. I just wanted to visit""You've visited. Now go" I growl.There is a certain pride because my voice is strangely so badass. Whereas before I don't remember I've ever dared yell at someone like this.He was silent for a moment before give a deep look "I miss you"I really want to throw up. "Stop this Maxon. Don't act like we used to be friends and that we parted on good terms""friend?" he tilted his head "we were once lovers"My anger peaked. I bet my face is red now "what kind of lover sells his own partner for money?! I ask you"He wrinkled his nose for a moment. M
Violet POVThe sun had just set and anxiety was already creeping over me with its thrill that made me glance anxiously every second at the window.I'm afraid that some mad man will dare to enter here. Cause Maxon already knows where I am right now.And my hunch is that he will come again.Will there be more letters to be sent today?Every day I feel more and more unfamiliar with myself. And it made me think about his words more than I should."Are you sick? You seem scared and overthinking something" Ema lit a scented candle in the corner of my bedroom.I'm still curled up in bed "nothing. I'm fine""You know? You can tell me anything if you want"I didn't answer her.It's not that I don't want to share my story with her. Surprisingly in this manor Ema became the first person I liked.I just don't feel ready.She left my room and left me alone."Violet you should have said what you wanted to say" the voice in my head spoke again.I closed my eyes to push her away. When the sound of my
Violet POVAnd exactly as I have guess.There haven't been five starts but now I'm out of breath. I'm gasping for air. There was a stabbing pain in my upper abdomen just below my chest that threatened to knock me out if I didn't stop.Still, Lily never even allowed me to pause to catch my breath."Lily.... Wait!" I called out to her in the midst of my breath that had become ragged. Stop in the middle of my track.She's way ahead of me."Hurry hurry. You're just not used to it. Get used to it from now on! Don't want to lose to the kids" Her voice faded as her body began to be swallowed by the thick bushes.I raised myself.Come on Violet. Get up. The faster it is, the faster it will be done.But god why does it take so long?The girl's stamina was really incridible. I clearly know that werewolves are strong and agile being. They are much stronger than humans and even the witch.But I really didn't expect Lily to be like a robot that doesn't have a sense of tiredness.She hadn't stoppe
Violet POVI shower with clumsy movements. As much as possible avoid water and soap from my wounds. Hissed in pain like a toddler every time a splash of water hit it."Such a wound is just a mere scratch for a wolf" Ema helped me rub my back.I rolled my eyes. Fuck a scratch. Because of this damn wound I can't move freely.Last night when I came back into my room with Alpha Xander putting me to lay in my bed the first thing Ema's reaction was to spray me with how careless I was.As if it was my fault if there was a huge pile of roots in my path."Ouch! be careful Ema. There is a bruise on my shoulder. It seems"I felt her rubbing my back even harder "Nothing. I'll give you some potion after breakfast to relieve the pain"I nodded. Ema helped me out of the bath up. Even though she is fussy and annoying she is actually very helpful.I changed clothes then combed my wet hair and sat on the bed."So how did you fall? Did you fall while you catch something?""Alpha Xander makes me practice
As the street performers finished their third song, the audience threw money into the container in appreciation for the entertainment they had received.It wasn't long before the container was full and the singers, including a little girl who wandered into the crowd, were beaming. She dashed to them as soon as she noticed Isabelle watching them from the crowd."You came! You kept your promise!" She cheered enthusiastically to the two of them, it was obvious that the little girl was very happy. Isabelle ruffled her hair gently "How could we forget? I like your singing, Lola" "Thank you!" The little girl loved to sing, and she was even happier because since she met Isabelle, there was no Rogue to bother their show. "Are the men still messing around over there?" Victor asked her "No sir, they never come again. It's magic!" Lola explained with sparkling eyes "What did you do to them? Are they all in jail? Are you a cop?" Her eyes twinkled. The little girl couldn't help but be curiou
Tiffany followed Nicholas until they reach the dense forest area further and deeper, the man seemed to have no intention of stopping even though he was far from the manor and only entered into the darkness, there was nothing here except the trees. Tiffany needed to make her boyfriend realize that maybe he was just hallucinating about seeing someone. "Nich!" the girl called out, He finally stopped his running right then and there, the person he was sure he saw earlier was gone. So fast it ran away, whoever they are must have known that Nicholas saw and chased after them. What a wily creature in fleeing and hiding, but unfortunately it would not last long. "Who exactly are you chasing? You..seem to see someone so...so important?" Tiffany was breathing heavily after running after him. "A witch, she was a Silverfur prisoner who was to be sentenced to death, but she escaped from prison and the pack hasn't found her yet. I believe I saw her!"Nicholas replied as his eyes scanned the su
"Would you like to dance?" Nicholas offered his hand to her. The guests began to dance with their respective partners in the hall, in sync with the melody of the music. As Alpha Xander and Violet returned to the manor, more and more joined the dance. Tiffany just watched them from the banquet table in the corner, the couples seemed to be very good at dancing and moving their bodies. Being at this party, a werewolf party for the first time made the girl feel a little awkward because of just a few people she knew. she accepted it and let him lead her to the center of the hall to join the others. "I might step on your foot" the girl felt she better say it before she would step on his foot and startled him. Nicholas chuckled "I won't get mad" Actually he wasn't very good at this kind of dancing himself. Tiffany glanced around for her parents, only to find that they had already joined the dancing party at some point. "Nich, do you think I get along well with the werewolves, with th
This was not the first time Xander had seen her. In his eyes, his mate was the only woman capable of possessing his heart. Only Violet could do that. But now looking at her, coming down the stairs in her wedding dress, he felt like he was seeing her for the first time. He could barely take his eyes off her let alone breathe. The girl took all his attention, she seemed to shine like a full moon tonight. And the smile on her face was the prettiest of all. It was because he knew that it was a happy smile. Xander couldn't help himself and walk over to her, he held out a hand and she take it. And as the Alpha led his mate to the center of the hall, there were whispers from the guests that all made Xander smile. Everyone was saying that his bride was indeed the perfect mate for him. "What's wrong?" the girl whispered softly and quietly "Is there something wrong with my appearance? I overheard them talking about me a bit"Violet swallowed, she never liked being the center of attention be
Victor stared blankly at the corpse of a Lycan lying in front of him. The Alpha tried to catch his breath, his opponent was dead but his anger had not yet dissipated. This was the creature that had killed his parents all those years ago, cause they do it against his order. Or was it he who could not control them? Until they killed his father and mother. Now that the creature was still alive, alarms rang in his mind remembering who the Lycan tried to attack moments ago."Isabelle?" Victor looked around but the girl was no longer there. There was a large trash can next to a street lamp, the man walked over to it. Victor stopped when he found the girl cowering there, hiding. She was so scared that she didn't even dare to look into his eyes. Victor held out his hand, but she just stood still and stared at him motionless. Only then did he realize that he must now look too horrible for her to look at. His hands and shirt were covered in the Lycan's blood. That blood must have spread to h
"Alpha, there is a letter for Luna Isabelle from the Scarlet Claw pack" Gavriel handed the paper to himVictor raised an eyebrow. A letter to his Luna from Scarlet Claw? This must have been written by her twin. Victor stared at the letter for a while, he didn't want to open this first before her. But the man couldn't help his worry. What does it say? Her twin met his Luna a few days ago. Nicholas, the one who swore loyalty to his pack was now back with them. 'Is there something they are planning to do to my Luna?' he wondered.The man finally opened the paper and read the contents, and sure enough, it was written by Violet herself. Mom and dad are here.That was the first sentence written, Victor read the whole thing. Afterward, he folded the letter back up and put it in his pocket. The Alpha seemed silent for a moment, not making any comment on the contents of the letter. That made Gavriel wonder "Is the letter a threat?" Gavriel asked "Do we need to make preparations in case the
Inside the cafe, the atmosphere was warm and cozy. It's the end of autumn in the human world and the snow is starting to fall making the air even colder. Having a cup of coffee or chocolate in this weather is a must. "One hot chocolate and coffee. And a Black coffee" Isabelle told the waiter her order. "Alright, just a moment miss" the waiter left after taking the note. "How do you know what I want to drink?" Victor asked her, they were sitting opposite each other at the table in front of the window. Now the man was looking at the girl who seemed to be busy reading the menu book. They both visited the human world because she missed the taste of food here. After being presented with the menu, the girl was at a loss for choice. She even forgot the taste of the food here. "I didn't think that you would want chocolate or milk. I just ordered what you usually drink in Lusevell" she replied. Or something that tasted close to it because no drink here would taste the same as the one in
When they arrived at the manor, the Scarlet Claw pack had already gathered in the courtyard. Tiffany gulped as she passed through the crowd of werewolves who had their eyes on them. Nicholas held her hand tightly to steady her, while behind them, Davis and Diana looked around them and wondered what world they had entered. This was the first time Alpha Xander had invited a human to Lusevell, to their manor. Davis and Diana stopped, they stared at each other as if asking each other if they were dreaming. After entering Lusevell, Tiffany led them to the manor straight away. Diana blinked her eyes at the magnificent building in front of her, it was so beautiful. The surroundings were also very beautiful as if they had entered a world in a painting. In front of the entrance, a tall man stood. The man had sharp blue irises. When he saw the two of them, Xander give a warm smile. Diana immediately knew that he wasn't just anybody, he must be the leader here. What made Davis and Diana wid
The tense atmosphere slowly turned into awkwardness as none of them opened their mouths to speak. Tiffany stood by her mother's bed anxiously. She repeatedly tried to wake Diana, who still had her eyes closed. Across from her, Davis Miller massaged the bridge of his nose as he closed his eyes tightly.Neither father nor daughter spoke a word to each other. Tiffany wanted to speak up and start explaining but she was too scared, while Davis was just not sure where to start. Tiffany stroked her mother's hair softly "Please, wake up."There was a sigh from Davis who looked so tired. The man couldn't wait any longer for his wife to wake up from her stupor "I'll call the doctor" The man was about to walk out of the room. Tiffany stood up straight before the man reached the doorway, there was a coughing sound from the bed. They both turned to Diana who seemed to be massaging her forehead, the woman slowly began to open her eyes. "Mom" Tiffany quickly intervened as her mother insisted on
