“You should stop now,” Selena said and pushed Daven.“Wait, why are you trying to run away from me?” he questioned and held her throat. “What are you doing?” Selena asks.“You must give me what I want before leaving me alone like this,” Daven said. Selena rolled her eyes; she was annoyed because he was acting like he won’t survive without her presence. They even talked about the breakup and she thought this flirting is unnecessary.“What do you want?” she asks. “What else? Hug and a kiss,” Daven said. “Look, I am not interested in that,” she said. “You’re not interested?”“Yes, I am going to the shrine and I think this is inappropriate,” she answered and came out of his grip. But Daven isn’t leaving her that easily, he held her hand and yanked her close to him.“What happened to you now?”“Nothing, I am just asking you to leave me alone,” she said. “Is that because of that girl?” he asks. “I told you, I am not interested in any of your endeavors,” she said, “I just want to get
When Selena reached Dyani’s place, she was waiting for her in the front carrying her daughter. “I am sorry,” Selena apologized. “That’s fine,” Dyani smiled and Selena took her daughter in embrace. Selena kissed the baby’s cheek and the baby smiled at her. Dyani came here after Selena. She met Daven brother Thomas in a ball and quickly realized that he is her mate. They got married and now having a child. Thomas is a scar free version of Daven. As far as she interacted with him, Selena learned that he’s different from his brother. He’s kind to his wife and daughter and more friendly. She has seen him having more fights with Daven and she even heard him bad-mouth about his twin brother. Selena once said this to Daven because she felt bad and he replied. “He’s my brother, he has every right to scold me like you do. And I piss him off like he wants to kill me. He’s patient with me, Selena,” he answered. That was convincing and she never had that question again but noticed Thomas’s
Chloe bid goodbyes to her friends before holding Marcus’s hand. “Enjoy the trip,” Lily shouted. “I will,” Chloe nodded with a big smile. Still now, she doesn’t know where Marcus is taking her to. No one knows expect him and she just followed his footsteps. She held his hand and walked with him to the car. He carried a backpack that Chloe prepared for the trip. He dropped it in the backside of the car and opened the passenger seat door for her. “Thank you,” Chloe got inside. This is her first time traveling in a car. Marcus said it will be a long distance to run and they would become tired. The place they are going is something special and important for Marcus. He doesn’t want to be tired while going there. He decided to take the car for the travel, Marcus and Theodore learned to drive when they were teenagers and they both were pretty good at that. Even Marcus would lend this car, but Theodore strictly forbids that. He won’t even let others touch it. They came out of the packhou
The night Marcus and Chloe stayed in the Inn. It’s old yet beautiful place, facing the river and endless meadows. They had a great time, talked about so many things and had good sleep in the comfortable bed. The morning they had delicious breakfast in the Inn and continued their journey and by the afternoon, they reached his aunt’s home. It’s in the middle of the busy town and people were waiting to have consultation with her.Seeing the bright red car, people’s attention turned to them. Chloe got down, looking around and when Marcus got down, the people around them whispered to each other and some even left the place. A woman’s voice got their attention, “Aunt!” Marcus smiled and went to hug her. Chloe followed them with a smile. “I missed you so much,” she said. “I missed you too,” Marcus came out of the hug and he turned to Chloe. "You must know, this is Chloe, my mate," Marcus introduced. "Oh, dear. How beautiful you are," Catherine smiled and hugged Chloe. "Good to see you,
After having delicious lunch, Marcus went on to rest for a while as he's tired of driving all day. Chloe and Catherine were in the living room. Uncle has left to meet his friend who came to the door step. "You don't cook in that kitchen?" Chloe asks. "No, I can only make a strong cup of tea and I am bad cook. That's the reason my husband buys food from eateries. They were delicious," Catherine said, "I guess you're a good cook,""Not much," Chloe politely disagreed. "Aren't you tired? You should go and take rest," She asks. "No, he done all the driving. I just slept on the passengers seat," she answered. Catherine nodded and sat beside her. No one can say she's a sister to Marcus's mother. Catherine has a dark blonde hair and they don't have any facial similarities but the one thing common between them is, they both look so beautiful."I guess Marcus haven't told much about me, right?" "Yes," Chloe nodded. "Do you know why?" "No, but I want to know," she said. "It's because
The next day, Chloe woke up hearing the thunderstorm, she went to open the balcony door and the sudden wafting wind brought her from the drowsiness. “It’s a storm,” Marcus said.“We can’t go anywhere in this weather,” Chloe said and felt bad because her plans got ruined.“Yes, but we have other things to do,” he said. “What are they?” Chloe sat next to him.“We are going to sit down with my aunt and ask all the questions that’s in my head,” he said.“Are you going to ask, really?”She can see how Marcus feels uncomfortable to ask about hi future to his aunt. “Yes, I am going to do it, I have already made up my mind,” he said.Chloe smiled.“Then what else?” Chloe asks. “Stay in the bed and rest. I like to sleep in this room, it’s so calming here,” he said.Chloe smiled and kissed Marcus before heading to take a shower. When they came downstairs, the breakfast is set on the table, his aunt and uncle were waiting for them.“Sorry we are late,” Marcus apologized. “That’s fine, sit d
Catherine started chanting spells. Closing her eyes, Chloe waited for that moment when she was going to see her future. Marcus’s warm hands were the only thing that gave her courage.Catherine placed her hand on Marcus’s head and they saw a bloodied knife, he holds hands with someone, tons of guns, snow mountains, a pregnant girl who he couldn’t recognize, and at last a girl without a face in the pool of blood.Marcus starts to hyperventilate after seeing the last visual, he doubted whether it could be Chloe. But he didn’t open his eyes because his aunt turned to Chloe. Again, she chanted a long spell and placed her hand on Chloe’s head.“You will see what you wished to see,” Catherine said. Chloe waited and saw dolls in their bedroom, that’s it. She doesn’t know what that means, dolls must be a good sign that she will have children. Chloe took that as a positive sign but still, she isn’t satisfied. "Now you both open your eyes," she said. Marcus and Chloe opened their eyes to see C
After having another long conversation near the river side, Marcus and Chloe has come to terms that they shouldn't fight over this again. "Promise me," Marcus asked not believing her. "I promise you," she said, gripping his hand.Marcus sighed. "I utterly hates this, I just want to fucking kill that bastard," he gritted. "Now, you stop this," she said and Marcus looked at her. "Let's end it here and do the other work," she said, You said you want to see a goldsmith, let's go there,"Marcus agreed and held her hand. They strolled the place, since the rain has stopped, people came out and start their day activities. All of them must have heard about the killer who was caught and they all going to witness the punishment. "Is this a right time? What if the goldsmith was here?" She asks. "Let's find out," Marcus looked around. "He's not here," he said and walked to the goldsmith's house. Chloe followed him. As they entered a old man who's barely clothed, working on the little pieces
"Do you believe her?" Theodore asks Marcus. "Yes, I do," "How?" Theodore frowns and sat down on the couch. "You haven't seen a witch's power. I have seen it a lot of times. That's the reason I have invited you to my aunt's place but you never came with me and never witnessed what true magic is," Marcus said and sat next to him. Theodore nodded, "Then Chloe must be safe," he said. "Yes, that's what I think. I would have sensed if something has happened to her but till now, I don't feel anything bad. I just miss her tremendously," Marcus answered. "That's a relief," Theodore said. "I never thought Viktor would be so helpful to us," Theodore commented."Yes, he always waited for a perfect chance to avenge us but this is surprising to me. It must be because of Reva. She has changed him completely," "But I feel like there's something off about that girl," Theodore said. "Maybe, but she's my only hope to save Chloe," Marcus said, "I want Chloe to be strong in this situation," M
Chloe decided to meet up with Reva that evening, they both were getting ready in their respective homes. Chloe dressed in a pair of black jeans and a blue shirt. While Reva wears a grey dress and a trench coat over her. Folding his hands across his chest, Viktor watches her getting ready with a smile on his face. She occasionally glances at him through the mirror but she knew he's looking at her. It made her cheeks blush. "You look excited?" He asks. She nods."Have a look good time," Viktor said. "What about you?" She gestures."I will be there but I won't disturb you," he said. She nods with a smile and puts her long hair in a bun. She's so happy that Viktor is doing this for her. Marcus is his enemy but for her, Viktor has left his ego to give that letter to him. Reva doesn't know what to say, day after day, he's getting her trust and she makes her heart race in excitement. The feelings she had for him before she saw him with Sharon has been knocking on her heart's entrance.
Chloe and Clarissa got Marcus’s permission to go to the shrine in the mountains. Marcus got quite hesitant to send them alone so he asked Henry to accompany them. He’s more than happy to get out of the pack house after a boring day, studying for his exams. Seeing him, Chloe also wanted to learn something, but she doesn’t have a specific field she’s interested.Marcus send her off standing before the pack house, she waved at it and said, “Now he will know how I feel while he leaves me alone,”Clarissa smiled.“What about Lucian, is he always busy like him?” Chloe asked.“Not really, but he goes away for long hours and I miss him so much at that time,” Clarissa said.“We are just going a mile away from your heroes, don’t worry, ladies,” Henry said.“Just a mile?” Chloe asks.“Yes, we know a short cut and we can reach there quicker,” Clarissa.“So we don’t have to shift?” Chloe asks.“No, it’s just a short distance. If we chat like this and walk we don’t feel bored at all,” Clarissa said

Chloe's POVI woke up hearing the sound of chirping birds. I had a very good sleep, not only yesterday but even since I came here. It's a surprise for me that this new environment didn't affect me one bit. I walked to the window where the small bird is drinking the water I kept yesterday. I noticed that every day it comes here at this time as this is the only tall place in this entire surroundings. It has green and blue features, and in the morning light it looked splendid. When I about to reach, it ran away. I smiled seeing how free and happy with his life. I don't know when I am going to live that way. With that thought I came out of my room, hoping to find Marcus asleep but asusual he left early. I asked him where he would go and he answered that his turn to guard the border in the morning till noon. Then mark or Theodore would take up his place. After coming here, he would have lunch with me, go to the refugee camp and help his pack members in the construction of new houses for
Marcus has arranged a meeting with his pack members to discuss his plan to leave this place for a while. He said this to them, many disagreed but Marcus explained his situation. They wanted to go with him and help him but that seem an extreme decision, considering the weather in the north and other things for survival. They might lose the war and die too. Marcus said this and all asked how he was going to get his mate and that too traveling all alone. “I have a way, my aunt is going to help me along with Viktor’s mate,” he said. Everyone got surprised by the mention of Viktor. "You all heard me right. Viktor's mate is a friend to Chloe and she's a powerful witch. She's going to help me eliminate Daven," Marcus said. "You trust her? Viktor is close with Daven," one of the elders asks. "I have talked to him about this and he said he has ended the trade with Daven long back. I don't think, he would go behind my back,” Marcus explained. “And I trust Viktor's mate, she's inter
Chloe's POVDays passed one and the other. It's been a few weeks since that incident. Everything is coming back to normal, I accompany Marcus everywhere he goes, he taught me how to fight and he took me to show the entire pack. We went to places I have never been before and I have to say, this place is so beautiful. The woods behind this place are dense and Marcus said he spent his time there before she came into his life. Being with him is such a surreal experience. Meanwhile, we also had a lot of intimate moments, and yesterday I suffered a heat after I stopped him while he undressed me.

Chloe's POVHe's my mate but I couldn't feel happy about that; I am afraid in fact. In these nineteen years of my existence, I have seen many terrible things I shouldn't have seen. My parents were killed in front of my eyes, what could be more terrible than that. The rogues left us with no supplies and people killed each other for a piece of bread. Girls of my age sold their innocence to survive. Protecting myself and surviving that worst time was quite a hard thing for me and just now I returned to a normal world where people around me were happy. I am not looking for my mate; I don’t want to be near this charming man. It doesn’t feel right to me at all. I know I have been battling alone with my survivor’s guilt which I hadn’t told Lily. I don’t think this guilt would fade away easily as it seems. Lily is different, she’s a cheerful person and always looks forward to the next step in her life but I am not like her. My entire world was my father and mother; after their deaths, eve
