Xenia's PovI was strong willed, I walked down the forest as I approached the heart of the woods.Lisa had pushed me to the wall for refusing to deal and cast Harlow away which had infuriated me more. I know for sure that these dark witches would still attack more and I don't want to die because of a weakling werewolf.From a distance, I could hear the witches casting their spells and doing their chants and it made my footsteps hurry along on their own will.I got tense as I realized they were performing a dark spell.But what could it be for? Well, this wasn't the time to ask questions. I wasn't supposed to feel excited and I was about joining the dark and rebellious witches but then I had to do it anyway if it meant that I would be able to bring Harlow down.On getting there as I followed their voices, I saw each and everyone of the black magic witches dressed in black cloaks as they were deeply immense in whatever ritual they were doing."I have finally come to acknowledge being
Unknown Pov*Heated*Oh goddess of the heavens!This was just too much for me to watch."Alpha, you didn't have to do that." I scolded."So I had to let her kill you? Is that the best had to do little one?" He questioned with a serious expression on his face and I didn't need to soothsayer tell me that he's angry."No, that's not what I meant."I replied with my head's low."Don't ever try to see my judgment as unjust because I weigh things before taking any actions. Meanwhile, let's go have dinner and let the matter slide." Alpha suggested and offered me his hands of which I hooked mine with.After dinner, Alpha requested that I take a stroll with him in the pack house of which I agreed to.Afterall, all I've ever wanted was quality time with him and it was happening.But as we took the stroll, the only matter that ran through my mind was why and how he hadn't professed to me his mate yet.Wolves were very sensitive animals and they didn't need to spend an entire year with their mates
"No, no I couldn't possibly kill him." I killed him.. I killed him.Oh no! My hands are stained with his blood... This can't be happening. What have I done? Someone, anyone please help me!!!!"Argh!!!!" It isn't real right? Yes, thank goodness it was just a dream.Why would I kill Alpha in a dream?I took time to analyze the whole situation and noticed I wasn't in my room–I was still in the maze like a lost lamb.*Sigh*The cold breeze hit me hard plus the fact that I had a terrible nightmare.What in the heavens do I do?I was still at this dungeon-like place with no hope of him finding any time soon.I was scared.Skulls and decayed bodies were the only thing in this hole which I presumed to be a dungeon.Decayed bodies were littered everywhere when I took a closer look.It was a dump... A place where the dead were thrown.Standing up in fright, I hugged my chest as more tears rolled down my cheeks.I need help but where would the help come from? I bet Lucian is missing too as I
Unknown POV~A family in another Werewolf clan that was deranged by Alpha Vixen simply because they had some information pertaining to Marc and Harlow. Everyone was sitting like there was an important ceremony. The white wolf pulled out a roll of cigarettes and started smoking. The whole room was filled with smoke but no one dared to cough."I told you the mission would be futile " Black lamp said gently."You don't have any excuse. You disappointed me.""White wolf, while we attacked, we only met his guards. King Lucian was nowhere to be found.""Am I expected to believe this? How am I sure this is not a lid when you were reluctant to go at first.""I swear, I am telling the truth. I went with my men and we attacked at the time we knew he would be at the palace.""What about mate?""We could not find her either, white wolf." Immediately Black lamp said that, white wolf stood up and pressed his neck against the wall. Everyone seated there watched Keenly on what he wanted to do Black
Muriel’s PovThe tension in the palace has not died down and everyone in the palace started treating me like an egg after the incident. I do not really enjoy it because I can not move around like I want to and it makes me really uneasy. Although, I normally do not go anywhere but it is worse now. I was in the kitchen with the chef preparing some dishes. I decided to help out today because I felt like Lucian was kinda in a good mood today because he did not force me to be there."I never knew you enjoyed cooking this much, my queen." The chef said with all smiles and I snorted."Look, I actually enjoy it. It is not something you force me to do.""The king does not feel that way, you know.""Exactly! It is so annoying.""Rumors have been going on in the palace, my queen.""Rumors? What rumors?" I asked with my eyes popped out. This is the first time I am hearing something like this.""Well…""Hey, you. You will annoy me if you don't talk now." I threatened. Actually, I just wanted to
Lucian's PovThe meeting was not yielding any result so when Muriel left, I followed her quietly leaving the elders to debate on their chosen topic. She entered her room and I waited for her to come out but she did not. So, I opened the door and saw her holding a paper. This was strange. The Muriel that I know will scream immediately. I stepped into her room but she did not. Was it that she did not notice my presence? I could see that she was lost in thought and I stepped closer to her but she did not turn to see who it was."Muriel." I called gently and she turned, looking at me with confusion written all over her face. She was still holding that paper and I am curious to know what was written in it."Why are you with that paper? What is in it?" I asked, reaching for the paper and she hid it behind her back. I was surprised at her action and at the same time more inquisitive to know what is in it."Are you not going to show me? or is it some love letter written to you by a male admi
Muriel's PovThe weather today felt nice but what pained me is that I can not move about freely. I really wish I had that opportunity, I would have been out in the woods enjoying the afternoon. But Lucian! Today has been so boring and I haven't talked to Lucian for a very long time. The only time we saw each other was when we had breakfast. After that, he disappeared. I guess, palace business. He doesn't really involve me in it so I am just here.I heard a knock on my door and I immediately adjusted myself. "Come in." I shouted and the door opened revealing a tall slender lady with broken wavy hair. She was dressed in flashy clothes and she looked like someone with a good fashion sense."Good day, your highness." She said bowing down. I became confused. Wait, did she just call me your highness? Weird."I am Muriel. Cut off those titles." I snapped."I didn't mean to get you annoyed.""Why are you here? Who are you?""I am in charge of your wardrobe, Muriel. We are about to go shopp
Lucian’s PovWe were back from the priestess place and Muriel has not uttered a word to me. She does not feel sorry for disobeying me and I will do everything within my power to punish her for what she has done. She sat opposite me in the palace and tried avoiding every eye contact with me."Are you going to pretend nothing is wrong with what you did?" I asked."I already apologized, Lucian. What else am I supposed to do again? Kill myself?" "I would have slapped the hell out of you right now.""You don't have the right to slap your mate.""Oh yes, I do and I am going to do that when any nonsense comes out of your mouth. If I had known, I would have let you get killed.""How did you know we were in danger?""I was contacted and I was really angry because you flaunted my order, you this Omega!""I did not know who those people were and I do not know why they are after me.""They are after this pack. Maybe you possess something great. What is it?""Something great?" She laughed. "I am
*GOT ANOTHER MATE! DOOMSDAY!!!*Already aware of the fact that the Alpha I had just served was my second chance mate, I decided to act like I didn't notice anything and just keep on moving.Especially now that it seems like he isn't aware yet but who am I kidding?He's an Alpha and it's possible that he already knew it before I noticed.Why else would he thank a servant?I was about to pour wine for the person beside him when I felt an additional weight on my hand and somehow the touch made my body tingle."Mate." He announced to the hearing of everyone and I raised my gaze to meet his smiling eyes.Immediately, some of the Alpha's began cheering him and my eyes moistened up.Was he accepting me?On my birthday?Double bliss!!!I didn't know why but I suddenly got that feeling you get when someone is staring intensely at you and I had to swerve.As I turned, my eyes came face to face with Alpha Amos.It seemed like he was using his eyes to drill and bore holes at the back of my head.
*A MATE, AGAIN? DON'T COME TO ABANDON JUST STAY*Taken back to the dungeon was one of the most dreadful experiences but I was able to stay alive till this very moment though the darkness still creeped me out and I couldn't wait to see the light of day. Though I wasn't sure that particular wish would ever be granted. *Scoffs*Not like any of my wishes ever gets granted.Just as I cursed my very own existence, the door to the dungeon creaked open. It was like some movie that had been rewinded because come to think of it, this was the same way the door to the dungeon opened the first time I was here. "You're quite a lucky one." A voice came from the doorway and the effect of seeing sunshine after a long while made me shut my eyes as they were hurting. Shutting my eyes wasn't enough as the lights were still able to penetrate into my eyes as if they would pierce through my soul at any time.My whole being felt sore and it was even more like I'd been deprived of my freedom to live like
*BITTER SWEET*I stared with my face and eyes moistened up with tears at everyone as they threw different spiteful insults at me.Wow... How fast does news fly here?It's almost like they had a transmitter or something because how did everyone know I had shifted and even killed someone in less than an hour.Fear gripped me as I wondered the severe punishment that awaited me if the royal palace hears of this.Gosh, the last thing I want is getting back into that dungeon.If only everyone would have just a little sympathy and shut their darned mouth then everything would be fine, or would it?No matter how much I wanted sympathy, it's quite clear I just murdered someone.My thinking wasn't flowing in the right direction anymore but I couldn't fail to realize that even when I shifted to my human form, I still had my clothes on.That doesn't happen or does it?I don't even know anything anymore.And it seems like everyone is oblivious of that particular detail... My clothes aren't shredde
DREADED NIGHT*I ran out when no one was expecting and I'm pretty sure no one noticed but something was totally off. The howls in the shadows kept me in a state of both confusion and fear as I couldn't interpret the animal that produces such a howling sound.I needed to focus on how to escape effortlessly but it seems that the sound keeps distracting me by implanting fear in me. At some point I felt like it was there for only one purpose and that's me!But what the hell could that be?I noticed that I didn't have enough time to deliberate on whatever that thing was so I had to let go and continue my run.... I had this strong instinct that I would escape successfully.Where do I have in mind to go?No where!Absolutely nowhere because I had no connections with the neighboring packs. But then I still had to escape to save myself.I had gone so far and with my observations, I knew fully well that I was about to cross the border but that would only happen successfully if I am able to figh
Harlow's PovIt's already been months since I was able to feel myself once again. The fact that many things weren't right wasn't something anyone can doubt as it was clear like crystal. Everyone including everything seemed strange and it felt like I woke up from a long trance. Constantly looking at Blair stared down at me like I was a ghost, or Rona who always avoids me like I carry a disease. Not to talk of Jade whom I knew was somehow close to..."Arghhhh." I screamed internally trying my best not to yell out how frustrated I feel. I watched as Blair started walking to my direction, I felt like walking away but no, curiosity made me stay to hear whatever shit she has to say to me."How are you doing? Let's grab a drink or two." Blair didn't even wait for a reply from me as she threw both questions at me without even waiting for my reply."Excuse me but are you talking to a kid?" I asked her, anger evident in my voice."Can we go now? You mustn't throw a fit you know." Rona muttered
*Santiago*I had left Nadia's room so she would feel a little comfortable because it seemed she acted kind of weird with my presence around.Going to my study room, I placed my head on my desk as the events that had happened yesterday came like flashes of light.I had rescued a girl that would have been hanging 6 feet above if I didn't get there the time I did with my team.Now that's bad of me, always forgetting to introduce myself.I'm Santiago Beckett, doctor and banker. I know it sounds weird but that was it!!I had my mother and myself to take care of so I had to do a double task to make ends meet.And my mind went to my mother, my expression and emotion immediately changed as tragedy hit.I had rescued a girl the night before and lost my mum the same night.What a bad fate!!As a doctor, I tried my best to save my mother as it seemed she was torn apart by an animal but what I had forgotten to ask the team that found her, was where they found her body!Quite forgetful of me.Some
NadiaOn getting to his house which freaked me out like hell, we alighted and I kept staring at the car—like he called it— with a dreamy look in my eyes as I gazed at it.The noise that came out of the car when we were inside was deafening.This particular world looked weird with freaky and terrific gadgets but I kinda liked it... How the hell did we get here in split minutes? Even if it was fast, it was slow somehow!!He took me in and offered me a room but everywhere looked too clean and classy for me. I don't know why but I would have preferred it a little dirty.And also, I had forgotten to ask him why he had run out of the hospital when he had been questioning me earlier. Oh damn it!! I'll make sure to question him about it.Few minutes later, Santiago re–entered the room with a mug in his hands though his countenance wasn't as bright as it was before."Here you go. Herbs and tea, it would help relieve you of the pain you might be feeling." He said and dropped the steaming tea o
Long time ago in the Green Oak pack*MEMORIES GONEWith no other option left, I strode out of the Green oak pack as tears trickled down my eyes.I was leaving the only place I called home!!I should have known that trying to be compatible with Moses would end in a losing game.I had suffered tribulation and gotten addicted all for a losing game!!Getting to the outskirts of the city, the guards that were assigned to make sure I left the pack without causing any troubles stopped and retired back to the pack because they had gotten to their limit.I was now left alone to find my way into the woods alone as more tears fell down my eyes.Just then, I felt strange and sharp chills run down my spine and I started screaming in anguish.My head was burning and my eyes turned crystal blue as I scratched my head in exasperation.Early Lunar Madness again!!!It was too much for my human self to take so I had no other choice but to shift to my wolf form.As I transformed into my wolf form, I bega
"You killed her!!!" Alpha Xander of the Crimson pack yelled.And that was enough to confuse the remaining sanity I had left."What are you talking about!?" I asked in anger. This is becoming too much for me to handle… but then, I have to be strong for not just myself, including my pack members. I have to protect them at all costs."Don't ask me that question!!! Aside from your pack, there is no other brutal and senseless pack." Alpha Xander blurted out."Enough of the insults already!!! What were you talking about!? Killed who?" I hollered as I felt my brain would explode soon.My head was spinning as I couldn't think straight anymore. When he said 'you killed her' my thoughts drifted to Petal.Could it be that she's dead? No, that can't happen.What went wrong? " You killed Amanda!!! The child was just innocent…You killed her because you couldn't find any way to reach Petal!!!" He shouted.Okay that's fair, nothing happened to Petal and that was a relief but not entirely a sweet r
