A week after
Sebastian’s pov
Sisi is ignoring me for a week now, after we slept together and I got up to see why Ciera left. My wolf is winning at my head missing his mate but she asked me for space. Her exact words were ‘’she will always come first for you, I don’t want to keep running after you while you are chasing her. I think it would be better to reject each other in order for me to avoid further disappointment’’.
I was trying to convince her that Ciera is only my friend now but both of us weren’t sure about the mating bond anyway. She asked me for space and time and I gave her that because it was what I need too in order to think straight about the most important decision of my life.
One week had passed without us talking or seeing each other and today I was going to her house to see her. Me and my wolf we were missing her terrible. Damn it mating bond. I wasn’t sure about what I wanted but I decided
Pavlo’s pov"Hey, can i speak to the king?" He laughed like i said something funny. "The king doesn't speak with anyone without a reason’’ he said arrogantly like I was no one . "Can i at least speak with beta Harry?" I knew that beta Harry wasn't there but maybe that way i would get some information about his whereabouts."Beta isn't even here, he is out searching for his mate with king's approval" he said like everyone knew about that and maybe indeed everyone knew or at least everyone who is interested on gossip."Did he found her?" i tried to seem like i was interested on the gossip but i was really interested about their location. "Do you see him here? That means that he didn't" that guard wasn't friendly and he was irritating both me and my wolf. But even i knew not to mess with the king's guard. "Ok thanks mate" i tried to sound friendly.What was really happening? If Ciera was his mate why they didn't get back? If they were
Ciera’s pov‘’How far way is the royal territory?’’ I asked him trying to break the silence between us in the car. ‘’We are not going there’’ he told me as it was nothing. ‘’where are we going than?’’ I was staring to get afraid, I was in a car with a stranger without knowing our destination. Can it get worse than that?‘’We are going to another pack until you are ready’’ he said looking at me this time like studying me. ‘’Ready for what?’’ now I was less frighten and more curious. ‘’Look I know that you have many questions and I would have been waited until we arrive to tell you but I can smell your fear. Let me tell you a story, ok?’’ he is eyes looked genuine, I could see that he meant no harm to me. ‘’um, ok’’ I agreed to hear the story but I didn’t know how it would be related to me or h
Ciera’s povThe car engine stopped waking me up from my light sleep. It was early morning and I could see the huge forest in front of us. The trees were tall and green, the air was fresh and the birds were singing.I stretched ‘’where is my aunt?’’ I asked beta Harry. ‘’I hoped that you would show me’’ he said smiling trying to cover how tired he was from driving all night.‘’what do you mean? I don’t even know her’’ I told him stating the obvious. ‘’I know but she is founder of a pack that it is special and well hidden’’ he seemed to enjoy to be the one knowing everything.‘’How am I suppose to know where the pack is when I didn’t even know of its existence?’’ I think he wants me to be the silly one always asking questions when he is the one with the riddles.‘’well maybe you don’t know w
Ciera’s pov‘’Your mother was the head of our coven, even if I was the oldest she was chosen to lead us. She had more power than any of us. She was the golden witch, magic was coming natural to her.She fell in love with you father, she wasn’t his given mate but he decided that he wanted her more than he would want any other woman, mate or not. They met on a bar and the connection was instant. Your father was visiting a pack near our coven and we were out for a drink. They just locked eyes and that was it, love at first site like a fairy tale but in this story the ending wasn’t a happy one.They had a beautiful mating ceremony and after 8 months you were born. After a few months the brother of your father was back from his travels. He and your father didn’t get along so he wasn’t there at the mating ceremony.When he arrived, he founded his mate only to discover that she already had a mate and a chil
Ciera’s pov "If my father was a werewolf king and my mother a witch what does it makes me? I know that i don't have magic but would i get a wolf at least?" "Honey you do have magic, i bonded it with a spell when you were five. It wasn't safe for you to saw your magic. Your uncle is hunting witches and hybrids like you. He went mad after the rejection and he wants witches to pay for that. It wouldn't be safe for you to manifest your abilities." All that generated new questions. Why did they abandon me? Why my aunt didn't get me back and raise me herself? "Why did you leave me there? How did you manage to bond my powers?" I asked her feeling abandoned once again. Searching on her eyes for hidden clues. She was looking me apologetically "I wanted to take you but i couldn't without raising any suspicious. You wouldn't be safe with me anyway, i was on the run as any other witch. You had friends anyway. I took you for a while in order to suppress your magic
Ciera’s pov ‘’At least you don’t suck at it’’ Beta Harry told me. It is my first day training with him. ‘’it’s five in the morning take mercy on me’’ I said playfully. ‘’Your uncle wont, you have to be ready’’ he said serious and cold as always. He didn’t wake up Amelie as he did with me, we were the two of us for now. He started with assessing my skills and I was beyond a failure. When we were young Pablo would saw me some moves in order to protect myself but he was always afraid of hurting me. I didn’t get to go to training as other of my pack, my previous pack, I had shores to do and it wasn’t a point for them to train me. I wouldn’t be a warrior as I was half human as they thought and probably wolfless. Gammas could be warriors or servants like cleaners, gardeners, cooks etc. I wasn’t strong enough to be a warrior so there was no training for me but a lot of shores. Truth be told I wasn’t into training either. I never liked the idea of hurting oth
Ciera’s pov It’s been a week since we started training. Combat training was getting a lot better and I had improved but magic training was a waste of time. Everyone was disappointed because the three of them were expecting me to be the most powerful witch like my mom. It would have made the combat against my uncle easiest but things were never so easy for me. At combat training I was doing great when I was against Amelie but I didn’t stand a chance against beta Harry. Maybe because Amelie’s attention was on him and not at the fight. I don’t know why he is keeping his distant from her when it is obvious that she is so into him. We were having dinner the four us at my aunt’s house that we were still staying in. ‘’Mam, we have a problem’’ the tall man near thirty that I saw the first day when we arrived here, came in the house speaking to my aunt. He was in hurry and alert. What was the problem? Are we under attack or anything? But that’s can’t be happening beca
Ciera’s pov My magic training at the afternoon was cancelled, my aunt thought that i had to recharge my magic batteries after this morning's incident. Instead of giving me some time of finally, beta Harry thought against it and we had a lesson about Quin duties, formalities and wolf history. As he was giving me a lecture about that, i funded very difficult to concentrate. My mind was somewhere else or rather i say on someone else. The fear for him that i felt seeing him tortured, the anger that i felt, the power that i radiated and the sparks that i fealt while my head was on his legs. All those feelings that i had for him was hitting me again. Truth be told they never left, i was thinking about him every day and now he was here. Was he feeling something for me too? He came to find me after all. I day dreaming, he was sleeping around with a lot of girls and he was ignoring me the last year. There's no chance that he is into me. But even if he is out o
Three years later Amelie’s pov I am finally home again. Me and my mom we were traveling the world enjoying our freedom. We have been traveling for three years now and we are finally back. We were talking on the phone with Ciera regularly and we are more than exited to meet her two-year-old son Mathew. When we talked with Ciera I always asked about b**e Harry. I haven’t seen him for three years but I still have the same feelings for him. All these years we didn’t talk or messaged. I wanted to but what could I say? Hey it’s me the girl who has a huge crash on you and you rejected? Three years now he hasn’t found his mate and I got my wolf some months after we left. So, there is a chance that I am his mate. Maybe three years ago wasn’t a good time for us but deep down I know that he will turn to be my mate. There is no other explanation for my feelings that never left and for the possessiveness and je
Sebastian’s pov We got a massage from my father after Ciera won the battle against her uncle. Both me and Pablo we were sitting at the living room waiting for the news. Both of us we were on pins and needles, very restless. It was a torture sitting there while we couldn’t help her. After we got the news was like we could finally breath. Pablo told me at our trip back what had happened between him and Ciera but after I thought he was dead and after we almost lost Ciera I couldn’t hold a grouch on them. Especially now that we were fearing for Pablo’s faith as I was an alpha too. Maybe finding my mate had helped too. I knew that Ciera wasn’t made form, maybe she was made for him or maybe not. We will find out tomorrow that we will visit her. My brother wanted to go right know but we had to wait for my father to get back. Someone has to be responsible for the pack and while my father was there, Pablo was the temporary alpha here. My father had sta
Ciera’s pov Everyone was in sock by the revelation and the turn out and they were gasping. He had no choice now but to accept the challenge ‘’Everyone, take the chairs away and make place for us to fight’’ he had managed to hide how shocked he was and now he was looking confider like a king. ‘’As for you, beta, you are a dead man after the fighting’’ he continued looking deadly at beta Harry and pointing him with his finger. If a look could kill, beta Harry would be dead. ‘’guards make sure that he won’t escape but let him watch the combat, it would be a combat to death’’ he ordered the guards while he was taking of his shirt. I wasn’t going to get naked in front of everyone, I rather destroy this beautiful white dress than let everyone see me naked. ‘’Are you ready Gia?’’ I asked my wolf inside of my head. ‘’I was born ready, just know that the first change hurts a lot’’ Gia warned me and before had a change to say anything the king changed to
Ciera’s pov The castle was huge, we arrive early in the morning so almost everyone was sleeping. Mis Baily the elderly woman showed us to beta Harry’s room. We had to share the room in order not to raise any suspicions. The room was huge like a small apartment. It had a queen size bed, a room for a closet, a dressing table with a mirror, a fire place with armchairs in each side, a huge tv and a sofa. The most exquisite was the bathroom though. It had both a shower and bathtub with jacuzzi and two sinks. ‘’you can take the bed, I’ll take the sofa’’ beta Harry offered. ‘’I can take the couch I don’t want to put you out’’ I replied not wanting to be a trouble to him, he was sleeping on a couch at my aunt’s place for two weeks I could surely sleep on a couch for a night. It seemed a lot more comfortable than the one he was sleeping anyway. ‘’don’t mention it again, I’ll get the soda. I got used to sleep in one after all’’ he was serious at first but he cr
Ciera’s povPablo’s father had informed us at our meeting that he had informed the king about beta Harry founding his mate and that me and his son were missing after that. Beta Harry had now to speak with him and trying to convince him that everything was fine.Me, my aunt and Amelie we were waiting for him to get back home. He went near the closest town to get signal in order to call the king. The suspense was killing us, same as the deadly silence.‘’We have to go to the royal pack now, tomorrow we have to be there’’ he was looking upset. His hand was messing with his hairs like he was searching for answers. Our plan to stay here and train for at least one year went to hell.‘’He was upset that I didn’t get back as soon as I found my mate. I told him that she is a human and that’s why I was training her in order to be better for the royal pack but he was mad and suspicious. He ordered me to be
Ciera’s pov ‘’What do you mean that’s an army outside? The place is invisible how can they see us? ‘’ I asked him being afraid for everyone. ‘’It won’t be invisible for long, the witches can’t keep it hidden from all these eyes. Go inside the house now, it would probably be a battle’’ he said ordering me around. He seemed ready to go to war and kill anyone who dared to cross him. ‘’I’ll be more useful helping, I have magic. I can help’’ I tried to argued but his eyes hardened. ‘’I am not letting you getting hurt, my job is to keep you safe. If anything happens you leave.’’ He was looking deadly serious and determent. ‘’That’s not the kind of queen that I want to be. I am not going to hide myself when others get killed. I am going to stand by you and fight alongside of everyone ‘’ my voice steady and determent, hiding the fact that I was afraid. He just nodded, he knew after all that there was no change for him to change my mind. T
Ciera’s pov‘’So, you too are a thing now or it’s just you being you?’’ I asked Pablo trying to get some answers without showing that I was jealous. We were walking away leaving beta Harry and Amelie alone.‘’what does me being me means?’’ He asked me trying to show confused but he knew what I was implying. I just gave him a look without saying anything. ‘’It was just a friendly touch, nothing more’’ he said and I believed him. He had no reason to lie to me but why did they hug?‘’What about you? How are you feeling about my brother finding his mate?’’ he asked me masking his feeling and looking at my eyes searching for my emotions. ‘’I am truly happy for him, I hope things are going well between the two of them’’ I genuine applied.‘’How things ended between the two of you? Did he break up with you when he
Amelie’s pov All night I couldn’t sleep. When I got home he wasn’t there and he never got home to sleep. It was early in the morning when he came to wake up Ciera for their usual training. The sun wasn’t even up yet. I decided not to go to the training today, it was crystal clear to me that he was avoiding me and that why he didn’t come to sleep at the house. It’s not like he wants me to attend the training anyway. I just got off the bed when they left. I had to go running to clear my mind, my thoughts and feelings where all over the place. Questions that they demanded an answer didn’t let me sleep. All I could do was make scenarios on my head, how pathetic was that? I was in love with a guy who was ignoring me and avoiding me every chance he got, yet somehow yesterday didn’t like me to get touched from another guy. Am I losing my mind? ‘’Good morning Amelie’’ someone said running behind me. I turned my head and it was Pablo. He caught up to m
Amelie’s pov Now that Ciera was here my mom was happier, like a piece of her was missing and she found it. She is running this place on her own for so many years. After she found me, she made it her life goal to protect as many witches and hybrids as she can. This place is the only safe place for us because of the king. It’s nice to leave her and it’s homie but there are only 200 of us and mostly children. Our hope is that one day we can be safe outside of this place again. I’m putting my faith at Ciera for that. I hope that she will get the throne soon. Everyone else doesn’t know about her identity and we keep It a secret. They think that she is just another hybrid and niece of my mom. It’s nice to have a cousin especially a nice and kind one as Ciera. I am trying not to be jealous of her but it’s hard when I see beta Harry with her. He is just perfect, god like even. He has green eyes that reminds me of the woods, something dangerous,
