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
It was so boring to sit all day in their room so Reva starts to work in the kitchen. She helps to cut the vegetables and wash dishes. It was fun, their chef is a mirthful man and he always teases his wife. Viktor didn’t object to her wish and let her do whatever she wants to do in this pack.For the dinner, they were going to make spaghetti for all of the pack members and tomorrow is their Alpha’s birthday, the cook is making a cake and Reva is helping him. No one knows that her birthday is also tomorrow. She has no intention to celebrate it.When the cake is almost finished, the chef looked at Reva, she was watching it with a big smile on her face.“You should write it, your handwriting is much better than mine,” he said. Reva happily agreed and wrote Happy Birthday Viktor. She felt so happy that she got to do this. “Have you prepared any gifts for the Alpha?” she asks. “Yes,” Reva nodded. “What is it,”“It’s a surprise,” she wrote it down and showed it to them.They both smiled,
The next day, Reva woke up when she saw Viktor getting dressed. She abruptly got up as she never slept after sunrise. Viktor turned to see her with a smile. “Sleep if you want,” he said.“No,” she said and went to the bathroom. After finishing chores, she came out to find the breakfast is here. She sat down with her wet hair and Viktor puts a towel around her shoulders so that her dress won’t get wet.“It’s pasta today,” Viktor said. “I know, chef told me yesterday,” she answered. It’s so new for Viktor to hear her speak to him and this what he craved for all these days. Her voice is so sweet, like a melody.“Your voice suits you,” he said. She looked at him, “What if it doesn’t suit me?” she asks, “Will you ask me stop talking?”“No, it’s not what I meant. I like your voice, even if you sound manly,” he said, “Don’t get offended by what I said,”The way he pleads and cares not to hurt her makes Reva feel that she’s special. But she doesn’t want to play with his feelings. She kno
Reva got up and looked around to find his mother’s resting place. It's under the hackberry tree and the name is Marie. She hasn’t lost her power, that’s a good thing, Reva thought and Viktor stood behind her. “You found her,” he said. He’s so curious about how she found this and that time something came to his mind. He never said anything about his birth mother. Like everyone, she also thought that woman gave birth to him. Who could have said this to her and how she knows his mother’s grave is here? Viktor stared at her in bewilderment. Reva starts to clean the tomb and placed the roses, they brought for her. Viktor helped her and asked, “What about your mother?” he asks. “She no more,” “Have you buried her or …”She shrugged, “I couldn’t recall,” she answered and bowed in front of the grave. Viktor paid his respects to his mother and he smiled looking at her. This is weird but this is his way to let her know that he’s happy.“I don’t know what’s her favorite food or anything, so
Theodore went home after finishing the pack duties. Since Marcus wasn’t here, he has a few more duties added to his list. Because of that reason he had skipped his honeymoon. Zen doesn’t ask anything but still, he felt bad for that. He promised he will take her somewhere but he failed to fulfill. He never thought out of nowhere, Marcus would decide to leave and before leaving, he said he was going to his aunt’s home. Theodore doesn’t like that idea because he doesn’t trust Catherine or anyone who’s associated with Marcus’s mother. He thinks Marcus’s mother is one of the reasons his father died. The pack war has left him and Marcus as orphans. He will never forgive the people who are responsible for that. But he has no right to complain about Marcus’s good relationship with his aunt, but sometimes he asks him to be careful as a protective brother. He came to the doorstep and Zen opened the door for him. “Hey,” he smiled and kissed her on the cheek. “Come,” she dragged him inside t
Thomas watched his brother as he performed the ritual to their Deity. He shed too much blood for this and Thomas wondered why he has to be so stubborn in this matter. “What are we going to do now?” Thomas asks after the ritual has ended. “We don’t have to do anything, things will happen on their own,” Daven said and made his way to his chamber. “Are you going to leave like this?” Thomas asks looking at the woman’s corpse on the ground. He sacrificed her for the ritual. “Clear the place,” Daven said and left the place. He’s half-naked but the cold doesn’t hurt him, with bloodied skin he walked down the corridor which grabbed everyone’s attention. He's often considered a devil because of his brutality and for killing innocent people. When he walked in, Selena got shocked that he has done the ritual. She stood aside and he walked to the bathroom. “Selena, come here,” he yelled and she scurried inside to see him naked. “Fill the tub in hot water,” he said. She nodded and opened the
Just after Marcus and Chloe came to the pack house, Chloe starts to feel very sick. They thought it’s just a normal fever and needed a day rest to recover but she isn’t getting any better. Chloe throwed up the breakfast she ate and Marcus got worried to see that. He helped her to get cleaned and stayed by her side.“I will ask Clarissa to come here,” he said. There’s no other healer in his pack and he doesn’t want to let anyone who he doesn’t trust near herChloe nodded, she’s terrified of this whole thing, she got weak all of a sudden, her vision is blurry, her legs were shivering and this isn’t like she’s going through heat or fever. Chloe laid on the bed and Marcus sat beside her.“What happened to you?” he asked, caressing her hair and held her wrist.“You’re not pregnant to feel weak,” ”I know,” Chloe answered. “Then what’s happening?” Marcus asks but she doesn’t know what to answer. Compared to her, her wolf gotten so weak. This has never happened before; she nor her wolf coul
"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
