Susan fell into a heavy silence for a moment before speaking up. "Can I get one more bottle of beer?" she asked quietly, her voice tinged with resignation.

Helen couldn't help but chuckle at her friend's request. "Are you trying to get yourself drunk?" she teased.

“I just want to drink, Helen," Susan replied, her tone indicating her desire to drown her sorrows.

With a sigh, Helen relented. "Fine, but I'm not getting you another after this," she warned before rising from her seat.

“Thank you," Susan mumbled gratefully, sinking back into the couch as she watched Helen depart.

Her eyes widened in alarm when she spotted Drake entering the bar. Before she could react, he grabbed her arm with force.

“Come with me, you little witch," he spat out angrily, his fury evident as he dragged her out of the bar.

Meanwhile, undeterred by the unfolding drama, Helen called out to the bartender, "One more beer, Anne Burns," she requested, sliding a dollar bill forward, unaware of the turmoil that

    "So, did you manage to find out what he's up to?" Lucy inquired as she watched Geraldine enter the house. Geraldine let out a tired sigh. "Can I have a cup of coffee, please? I've already encountered enough toxic smells out there," she requested with a frown. Lucy scoffed, shaking her head as she headed towards the kitchen. "That sounds bizarre. What happened out there?" she probed, her curiosity piqued. Geraldine shrugged as she settled onto the couch. "First of all, these cops are something else, and they're not easily intimidated," she explained. Lucy chuckled in amusement. "You can't expect them to be scared when technology rules the day," she retorted, glancing back at Geraldine. “You won't believe what happened, Lucy. This cop saw my eyes change, and he thought I was a robot," Geraldine recounted, a bemused expression on her face. Lucy burst into laughter at the absurdity of the situation. Geraldine couldn't help but shake her head at her friend's reaction. "I knew you were

  • Moonlight Queen    Poisoned by a witch

    Anne Burns arrived home after a grueling day at work, her shoulders heavy and throbbing with pain. Dropping her handbag onto the bed, she peeled off her clothes, wincing as she noticed her hand throbbing intensely. Giving it a closer look, she realized it appeared strange, sending a shiver down her spine. Shrugging off the unsettling thoughts, Anne applied ointment to her hand before quickly showering and preparing for bed. Just as she was about to settle in, a knock on her door shattered the quiet of her room. With an annoyed scoff, she called out, "What do you want now?" Her aunt's voice responded, “seeking a decent conversation." Irritated, Anne muttered under her breath as she reluctantly unlocked the door, returning to her bed with a frown. Her aunt entered, shutting the door behind her and taking a seat close to the table. "Why the attitude?" Anne's aunt began, frustration evident in her tone. "The bills are piling up, Anne, and you're not contributing," she continued, her dis

    Geraldine paced her living room, her hands clasped firmly behind her back. She glanced up at Lucy, who stood by the door with her arms folded. "Why aren't they here yet?" she demanded, her voice rising. "Geraldine, calm down. They'll be here soon," Lucy replied. "No, Lucy, don't tell me to calm down. You and I both know what this means. We're not ready to fight the vampires, and we never will be. Who dares to do such a thing to us?" Geraldine cried out. "We'll find out, Geraldine, and we'll handle it before Alexander discovers who among the girls did it," Lucy said. Geraldine shook her head, wagging her forefinger. "You know Alexander. I wonder why you're acting like you don't. He will stop at nothing to find out who did this, and when he does, he'll make sure to kill the culprit. I'm not ready to witness the death of any of the witches," she said, her heart pounding. She rubbed her sweaty hands on her dress. "Don't get yourself worked up over this yet. Trust me, we'll fix it.

    Lucy sliced the snake into two parts and threw them into the burning pot of fire. She walked over to the girls and applied the snake's blood on their foreheads. Moving backward without turning her back on them, she took a deep breath and turned to Geraldine. "It is done." The girls burst into laughter, relieved and joyous. Lucy cleared her throat, and they all went silent. "Susan, now you must be extremely careful. Alexander will not be able to harm you without the elders' consent, but you must do yourself a huge favor by avoiding both him and his brother," she instructed. Susan bowed her head. "I will do just that, elder," she smiled, glancing at Helen, who was also smiling. The girls left Geraldine's house. As they walked outside, Susan noticed a quick movement in the nearby bush. "I saw something just now," Susan said, turning to Helen. Helen shook her head. "I saw nothing." "There was something watching us from the woods," Susan insisted, looking curious. "Susan, stop it!

    It was indeed a small ship, just as the Queen Mother had described earlier. Anne found herself naked, but she paid it no mind, her determination overriding any sense of modesty. "I must return to Earth and finish what I started," she muttered to herself, her resolve unyielding. Anger surged within her as she thought of Helen, fueling her determination. "Oh my God! Who are you?" The captain of the ship cried out upon seeing Anne, his eyes averted from her naked form. Anne couldn't help but smirk, seeing his discomfort as an advantage. "I am lost," she said smoothly, her voice dripping with allure as she took a step closer. The man recoiled, his body trembling with fear. "Don't come any closer!" he yelled, desperation lacing his voice. Anne's smile widened, her voice soft and seductive. "But why shouldn't I come closer?" she purred, continuing to advance. The captain refused to meet her gaze, his movements frantic. "I said stay where you are!" he pleaded, his eyes darting around ne

    Alexander took a few steps backward, his laughter echoing through the room. "I won't come close to you, but I want the three of you to understand something. I own you now. You answer to me," he declared, his tone filled with authority. Larry scoffed, his laughter ringing out. "You're not just a bloodsucking demon, you're also insane," he yelled, shaking his head in disbelief. Alexander simply nodded. "You think so?" he replied casually. "You're crazy, Alexander! You're evil!" Larry screamed, his voice filled with anger as he moved away, feeling utterly devastated. Taking a deep breath, Alexander continued, "You're all just like me now, and trust me, you'll need my help if you want to survive." Larry glanced at Neo and Victor, confusion etched on his face. "What is he talking about?" "I'm talking about this," Alexander said, reaching into his pocket and producing three daylight rings. Larry looked puzzled. "And what does that mean?" "You need my help right now more than I'll eve

    I arrived at school this morning, my face beaming with smiles as I embraced my beautiful friends. Conversation was sparse among us, so we didn't waste much time. Upon entering the classroom, I immediately noticed Alexander's absence. "Hello, Yvonne," Anne greeted, sending a wink my way. I was taken aback; we weren't even friends. Grace and Lora shot me puzzled looks. "Why is she suddenly saying hello to you?" Grace inquired. I shrugged in confusion. "I don't know, but if she's trying to be friends, I certainly don't need her friendship." Turning my attention, I searched for Alexander. Standing up, I walked straight to Drake's seat behind. I couldn't help but notice the furious glare from Susan, who sat near Helen. Ignoring her stare, I approached Drake's desk, where he greeted me with a smile. "Hello, Yvonne," his face lit up. "Hey, how are you doing?" I replied, aiming for politeness. "I'm okay... what's up with you?" he shrugged. "I'm fine," I grinned, nodding in response.

    Alexander stood with Anne at the corner, her hands all over him. Helen approached him. "Can I have a word with you, Alexander?" she asked. "What for?" Anne yelled. Helen glared at her. "I wasn't talking to you, bitch!" Anne smiled, folding her arms. Alexander intervened, "Hey, calm down. Let me talk to her." Anne shrugged as Alexander moved away to a corner with Helen. "Geraldine wants to see you in her office," Helen informed him. "And why?" Alexander inquired. "I don't know," Helen replied. Alexander nodded, "Fine." As he turned to leave, Helen grabbed his hand. "Really? What do you see in Anne that you don't see in me?" she questioned, moving closer and locking eyes with him. Alexander smiled. "I know you like me. Why lie to yourself by sticking with her?" Helen pressed. "Some things are better left unsaid, pretty," Alexander said, walking away. Helen hit her hand against the wall in anger. "I don't get it. How did she survive that poison?

    "Not so fast!" Catherine said, descending the staircase with an air of authority. With a swift motion, she pushed the men attacking her mate against the wall using her magic. They slammed into the wall with a thud, groaning in pain and his men who were held captive were freed at once. "How dare you, Catherine? How dare you use magic on my men?" Emelda yelled, her face contorted with fury. "Beware, Emelda, I can read your mind clearly," Catherine smiled, a glint of mischief in her eyes. Emelda was taken aback. "What?" Catherine laughed, a cold, knowing laugh. "Oh, you don't know, do you? The witch who has been preparing your mind-cloaking spells, the one you have been scheming your evil plans against the werewolves with, the one you promised the leadership of all werewolf packs to... she's dead. Geraldine was killed yesterday by her own daughter. Can you imagine that?" Emelda gasped in fear, her eyes widening as they began to turn bloodshot. She had no idea Geraldine had a daughter

    Anne disappeared in a flash, leaving Alexander alone amidst the chaos. His search for her was fruitless, and in a fit of anger and desperation, he dragged the bodies out of the house and set it ablaze. As the flames consumed the building, Alexander turned back to bury the bodies, but to his shock, only two remained. He buried them hastily, then fled the scene before the police and fire services arrived. Meanwhile, in his throne room, Arthur was pacing up and down, his face etched with worry and stress. The group of werewolves he had sent to find Yvonne finally walked in. Arthur spun around, his eyes filled with hope. "Where is she?" he demanded, his gaze darting behind them, hoping to see Yvonne. The men shook their heads sadly. "I am sorry, but we could not find her," one of them said. Arthur's face contorted in disbelief. "What do you mean by that? I told you not to return to this fort until that girl is found." "We are sorry, Your Majesty," another werewolf interjected, "but we

    Lucy was stunned, her eyes wide with disbelief, while Geraldine clenched her fists, her knuckles turning white as she gritted her teeth in a barely contained rage. "Who are you?" Lucy screamed, her voice echoing through the room. "Good question, Lucy," Anne replied with a chilling smile, her eyes gleaming with malevolent amusement. She turned back to Geraldine, gently caressing her cheek with a touch that felt both tender and menacing. "Yes, Geraldine, you do look like my wretched, stupid mother—the same woman who willingly sacrificed me to the ocean because her dearly beloved vampire lover craved more power. The same one who polluted the ocean and caused the deaths of countless sea creatures, including mermaids," Anne said, her eyes shifting to a vivid, unnatural blue, reflecting the fury of the ocean depths. Geraldine's shock was palpable. She stumbled backward, her body trembling uncontrollably, as if the very ground beneath her had turned to ice. "You're... you're... suppose

    I sobbed uncontrollably, cursing myself over and over again for being so foolish. "Yvonne, please, I am not like them. I have never supported my brother's evil deeds. My mother was a werewolf; I am also like you," Drake pleaded. "You are nothing like me, Drake. You are an abomination, and now I am about to give birth to another one. I am a total disappointment to my family, the Moonlight pack, and all werewolves!" I screamed, my words heavy with anger and despair. Drake shook his head, hurt evident in his eyes. I knew I had wounded him deeply with my harsh words, but my anger was uncontrollable. "Yvonne, I am sorry," he repeated, his voice filled with remorse. I cried like a woman who had lost her husband to sudden death, my hair a tangled mess as I repeatedly struck the wooden floor in anguish. He approached me, offering solace in his embrace. I knew he was genuinely remorseful, but how could I come to terms with the mess I had gotten myself into? A few hours later, my sobs su

  • Moonlight Queen    Yvonne POV- Moment of truth

    I drove for what felt like an eternity, putting as much distance between myself and danger as possible. Even though I was still within Latan City, I couldn't shake the feeling of being hunted. This was the only place I'd ever known, and the thought of surviving beyond its borders seemed daunting. Finally, I stumbled upon a guest house and parked my car securely in their garage, grateful for the added layer of protection it offered. I covered it with a blanket, ensuring it wouldn't attract any unwanted attention. After securing a room and locking myself in, I took a moment to catch my breath. The accommodations were far from luxurious, but they provided a safe haven for the time being. As I sat on the bed, trying to calm my racing heart, my phone began to ring. Each vibration sent a shiver down my spine. I hesitated, knowing it was Drake desperately trying to reach me. For hours, I ignored his calls and messages, fearing that any contact would reveal my location. But as hunger gnawe

  • Moonlight Queen    Yvonne’s POV- Hunted by her kind

    I sat in class for what seemed like an eternity before everyone finally cleared out for the cafeteria. Instructing my friends to go ahead, I rested my head on the desk for a moment. When I lifted it, I noticed my vision was slightly blurred. Blinking with difficulty, my eyes felt heavy, so I rubbed them with my hands. Drake entered the classroom. "Aren't you joining us for lunch?" he asked. I managed a smile in response. He leaned down and kissed my lips. "I'll grab lunch soon," I replied weakly. "You go ahead. I'll catch up." He nodded, giving my back a reassuring rub. "Don't worry. You'll be fine." As he walked away, I exhaled deeply. Drake would make an incredible mate and father. His caring nature only deepened my love for him. But right now, my mind was overwhelmed. I fretted over my own well-being and the pregnancy. How would I break the news to my family? Could I even bear to face it, or would I have to live with the secret? I shook my head, knowing my father would never a

    Now understanding the depth of Alexander and Geraldine's history, Helen ran her hands through her hair, pondering if she could ever move on from Alexander. As Drake was leaving, she hurried after him, grasping his hand. "What do you think Alexander wants from Anne?" she inquired. He shrugged. "I don't have the time to find out. Maybe you should help me figure it out," he suggested before continuing on his way. Lost in thought, Helen stood for a moment before making her way into the bar. Anne noticed her approach while serving a customer a glass of wine. "What do you want?" Anne asked, glaring at her. Helen placed her hand on the counter, chuckling. "This is a bar, a public place. You shouldn't be asking me such a stupid question." "Are you that dumb? I was only asking what you'd like to drink," Anne retorted, rolling her eyes in disgust. "Then you should have sounded a lot nicer, or I wouldn't mind reporting you to your boss. Trust me, you don't want to lose your job," Helen

    I looked up, and there he was—my man, Drake. All eyes were on him as he strode in, exuding an aura of charm and confidence, especially with his sunglasses accentuating his handsome features. A smile crept across my face, reassured in my decision to be with him, despite the complication of carrying his child. Throwing my arms around his neck, I pulled him into a tight hug, savoring the moment as he reciprocated with a lingering kiss. Giggles escaped me, feeling a sense of contentment, even as I noticed Alexander passing by with Anne, their faces clouded with evident displeasure. But their opinions mattered little to me; my happiness was all that mattered. Hours later... While other students made their way to the cafeteria, I steered Drake into the men's restroom, craving a moment of privacy. "What's up?" he inquired as I locked the door behind us, his hand inching towards me, anticipating a romantic encounter. "Stop, Drake. I need to discuss something serious," I stated firmly,

  • Moonlight Queen    Yvonne’s POV- Shocking news

    A week later, I was inseparable from Drake; we went everywhere together at school, always accompanied by my two friends. Yes, we were dating. I never imagined I would be with Drake, but it was happening. I didn't love him as much as I loved Alexander, but I felt a strong attraction to him. He was a genuinely nice guy, and I thought giving him a chance was the right thing to do. As days passed, I found myself growing to love him more. Drake looked happier than ever since coming to Latan City University to study. He was now the love of my life, and thinking about him excited me. I started to see him as the most handsome man in school, and maybe I was already falling deeper in love with him than I ever imagined. However, people like Anne and Alexander didn't seem pleased to see us together. I didn't know why, but I didn't care to find out. In fact, I was glad that my relationship with Drake was bothering them. Helen walked into the classroom as I was packing my books into my bag. I wa
