Harlow's PovTo cut the whole story short, I left the pack house.I made sure that not a single soul managed to see me while I left the pack house.The Green Oak pack looks like a place of hell now...I made sure to peep one last time at Marc and Alaric before I left with just a few clothes tied at my back.Walking through darkness, fear gripped me as I felt goosebumps crawl up my skin. This might be the worst decision ever but then I'm not ready to back down after coming this far.As I walked, taking slow steps ahead of me I could hear eerie sounds from the woods... The cold hit me hard and I forgot that I was very sensitive to cold.There was no turning back this time... No matter what happens I can't go back to that pack house. I've tried my best to ignore the rumors and stay strong, I was at the peak of achieving that but almost every time the same rumor came up Marc failed to act on it and more pack members became brazen and I became a substance of bullying for all.Alaric stood
Harlow's PovI woke up to the cold sprinkling of water on my face and that prompted me to think I must have slept out in the open under the cold dew.In the tiny bundle of clothes that I had carried, I knew perfectly well that there was nothing to shield me from the cold.And that meant that if I didn't die of exhaustion or hunger, I'd definitely die of the cold.Either way, it ends up in death.I wondered how sleepy I must have felt to have slept on the floor but nothing came in and worst of all was the fact that whatever it was I was lying on wasn't the cold, Barr and hard floor.Even if I was feeling water and cold on my face, I couldn't comprehend the feeling that other parts of my body felt warm.Now what could that be described as?I tried standing up and only then did I realize that I was covereds by a duvet. That was the reason for the warmth and as for the cold.... Well, the woman in front o e was basically carrying a bowl of water which meant that she had sprinkled it on me.
Harlow's Pov After few minutes of a little reminisce and silence, I finally found the feet to drag myself out of bed if no for anything, at least not to get numb all over.As I tried to stand, it felt like I sprained my ankle and hurt other part of my body but I didn't know what to do about it.It made me remember Mirable and Jade—Despite the fact that Jade is self reserved, she's till kind and pure hearted. If Mirablewas here... She would tend to me and give me a zillion herbs and oils that would calm me down before I even notice it. Gosh Harlow, you really have to stop reminiscing over the past.This is the present and you have to face it.It's funny how I have to tell myself those words over and over again to keep living and hanging on.Earlier on, I had only one reason to live... Just for the sake of living itself, now I have a baby in my womb to take care of and whatever gender the child is, it's worth living for.I walked outside and saw the woman grinding some herbs and I we
Marc's PovNot knowing that the door that burst open was going to be a war that would bring so much damage and a lot of things would be in despair, I felt reluctant to even move an ankle and I was so surprised at the attack that came for me.I silently made my way to the door only to see a bloodbath war unfolding in front of my eyes.I was expecting this though.But to be honest I'm so tired of this unending and unnecessary war.I want to live a normal life, far from stress and just the peace of mind to be guaranteed.The moment I realized how fierce the war was, I subconsciously uttered Jane's name and only prayed that she's okay. I didn't have much time as I had to join in the fight.At first, I wanted this war to end, I wanted to make peace with the Blood moon pack.This isn't supposed to be happening, I thought about it standing inactive for some seconds. I looked at how fierce and bloodbath the war seemed and decoded that even if I want to end this in my own way, the Blood moon
Marc's POVOnce at the office, I craved to be with Harlow. It's been a while since she warmed my bed. My whole being needed her at this point.Thinking of her alone made my dick hard.I had to finish up with these files, hopefully they are not much.I made a mental note of all the styles I would want to perform with her once in bed.She's all juicy and I bet she'd be delicious down there....This time I don't want to fuck her for a purpose, I just want to feel her.Pinning her down and fucking her hard till she screams my name would be exactly what I'd do today."You're a fool!!! How can you focus and finish up fast so we can meet her if you don't stop thinking about rubbish!?"Maddox yelled in my head, making me snap back to reality.... No, the knock that came from the door and Maddox actually made me snap back."Who's there? You can come in..." I responded to the knock urging the person to come in." My Lord..." Lucian started but trailed off and I could see clearly that he was try
Marc's PovTobias said, stepping out of the shadows with a slight grin on his face.The smirk alone made me hunger to punch him in the face and get that smug look out of his face.Hell, when did he start calling me brother?This punk would really get a beating from me and I hope I kill him at the end of it all cause what the hell?Messing with my mate was a step he shouldn't have ventured."You had better start talking!" I growled because I was using up all the energy I had within me to stay sane."What would you like me to talk about?" Jason said and his cool expression infuriated me the most."Don't get on my nerves Tobias... I've had a lot of blood on my hands already and you wouldn't be added to the list. Just spit out what you did with Harlow. My blood is like a ticking bomb right now." I warned and I saw him jolt back in surprise because of the volume of my voice.Everything I just spouted out in front of Jason was true!I just wished to rip Tobias apart but my wolf chanting ins
Marc's PovFor once in all the time that the elders had called on me to tell me the disastrous news I didn't want to hear, I had the situation under control for myself.It felt good notwithstanding the void I felt inside of me to see these old treacherous men argue amongst themselves."I'm your spokesperson but I don't reside in your hearts, I only speak what you all must have concluded." He stated, standing his ground and I chuckled inwardly staring at their frustrated faces."I can see for a fact that you don't have the answer settled in mind, I'll have to leave because I've run out of patience sitting down here immobile and listening to your jittering. Get back to me once you have an answer settled in mind. Besides, there is somewhere I have to be at this instant." I reiterated whilst standing up though I thought I might receive some scolding for trying to leave their presence without their permission.To my utmost surprise, none of them breathed a word till I walked out the door
Harlow's Pov Sitting in place staring at her with all anxiousness, I anticipated what she would say and or know about my dear parents.It had always been a lifelong dream for me to get to know them better even if they were dead.At least, that would appease my broken soul that became void and distant when they died leaving me all alone in this crucial, evil and hard world if not for the man known as Alaric.So as the woman stared at me again to be sure I was prepared for whatever it was she was about to say, I nodded my head in affirmation, adjusting in my seat."Firstly, as inquisitive as you are...you didn't even ask for my name." She said and i mentally scolded myself.I should never have missed that."Ouch, my forgetfulness. Please what's your—" I was asking before she cut me off abruptly."There's no need to ask anymore, I'm just about saying it. My name is Lisa..last known witch of the spirits circle." She began but when she said the last known witch, it made me wonder if other
*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
