It's been five years since Sicily lived with her birth mother in the silver castle. Now she seemed fit to mingle with the outside world. "What do you think, darling, are you ready?" asked Rebecca when she saw Sicily still standing by the window. "Where are we going, Mah?""To continue your papa's business that was put on hold ten years ago," Rebecca replied. Sicily turned around, for five years she had been trained by her biological mother in everything including the outside world. While Rebecca since the destruction of her pack had to hide in the silver castle for decades. Her husband's business had to be delegated to Esther. The woman who has been in and out of the outside world and her pack. Now with her daughter's presence she felt her spirit revived. "Esther's waiting for us downstairs, darling!""Mummy first, give me five more minutes!" pleaded Sicily.Rebecca quickly stepped away from her indecisive daughter. Sicily stared at the dark forest where she used to be. Images
Sicily jumped at the sound of footsteps with a familiar frequency. Her hand clasped, the other sought a grip on Esters fingertips. "Calm down, Miss, normalise your breathing!" whispered Ester. Sicily followed all of Ester's directions, but anxiety and fear were still evident in her eyes. A man came closer, a figure with a distinctive scent began to greet the blind girl's sense of smell. "What business does a blind woman have at the auction, is there any ability?" Harlan's voice was clearly caught by Sicily's ears. The woman's head lowered to hide her fear. She woman still wanted to dodge again and again. "Raise your face, Sicily!" Is this the attitude of a Luna?" Harlan's reproach pressed on Sicily's psyche. "What's in it for you, Mr Harlan?" "Ho oh, apparently your memory is still sharp too." "This is my territory, and Mistress Rebecca is the controller of all power," Harlan said in an arrogant tone. Sicily was silent, but her sense of hearing picked up light steps with the
Harlan seemed to be looking at the expanse of grassland where a special resort for the entities scattered in the region was planned to be built. The man was still scanning the entire construction site for possible intruders. "Sir, everything has been completed and the conditions are still naturally fresh without any tarnishing. Natural," Piter explained. Harlan was still focussed on scanning the entire site, then his lips spread into a wide smile. "Good, as planned. So how did the investigation go about that woman?""Yes, it was true that she was pregnant and the last time she wanted to reveal her pregnancy was right when you were with the young mistress," Piter explained. "Are you sure?"Piter simply nodded his head in confirmation of Harlan's question. Then returned to silence waiting for what his employer would tell him to do.Harlan was still silent, his brain wandering to Sicily's figure that changed in such a way that made his heart seem to stop beating. "Sir!"Harlan only
The day has changed. The orange glow on the western horizon signalled that nightfall was imminent. All pack members had gathered around the circle of fire. Not only were members present but a pack elder was also visible. With Harlan dressed in his regalia, he stood proudly facing the brightly lit fire of worship. The assistant stood on the left side with a flat stare. Meanwhile, the Elder stood tall on a special altar. Harlan grinned faintly, the man walked along to erase the distance then bowed briefly before Elder Vans. "Welcome, Elder Vans!""No need for pleasantries. I've come to ask you one thing, Harlan."Silence, after the old man finished his sentence suddenly the atmosphere immediately darkened. The light of the cult fire also dimmed. Harlan, who knew what had caused it, stepped back and looked at Piter. The assistant just stood still, his lips unable to move. It wasn't just Piter, almost all the pack members experienced the same thing."You have nothing to fear from your
Harlan ferociously tore apart several pack members who were starting to act up and make a scene. This was a calculated move, he didn't want to divide the other members. "Come forward if you disagree with my decision!" Harlan said telepathically. The other pack members immediately fell silent and looked at the alpha with a sad look. It was as if they felt guilty for daring to take a stand against the leader. Harlan growled loudly, as if he couldn't accept the apologies of the other members. The alpha jumped back, pounced on and even bit one of the defiant pack members and shouted for him to abdicate if he couldn't choose the best mate. Elder just stood there staring at the chaos created by the alpha. The old man grinned sharply at Rhena's figure. The Luna that Azim's inner wolf did not want. Vans' gaze made Rhena's body tremble violently even as she realised blood was seeping from her nose."Oh, shit. Blood!" murmured Rhena as she realised the smell of blood wafted in. Immediatel
After conquering the small pack on the west side of Silver Castle, Sicily immediately left the pack and returned to the Castle. Every time she travelled, she was accompanied by Esther, an elderly woman who understood what her lady wanted. Sicily herself began to feel a connection with the presence of Esther - her mother's assistant in the past. "Miss, wouldn't it be better to take the car to reach the castle soon?" "No need, Esther. Let me hone my skills before the big battle!" Sicily replied while jumping from one tree to another. For a moment Esther saw all the young silver wolf's actions, she just smiled without any intention of mocking even though Sicily's way of shifting was still somewhat rough. "It might be until the Castle that Mistress Rebecca's cold hands change you soon, Miss!" whispered Rebecca who spoke for herself.After feeling a little less tight in her chest, Esther joined Sicily in running behind her. The woman seemed to be more calm and smooth in making each ju
Edward could smell the aroma of roasting meat. The black castle that stood firmly on the edge of the Jungkla mountain ravine looked so cold. Edward's figure stood tall atop the tower with his nostrils flaring repeatedly. "Heem, this scent is so delicious that it makes me feel like pouncing on it," Edward said softly with his eyes closed. The burly man nicknamed the Lycan King of the west looked so tempted by the scent that greeted his senses. Not only was Edward visible in the tower but there was another man who was also smiling at him. "Could he be your mate, sir?""It is possible, but this scent seems so familiar, Jos. But I forget when I met and made love to her," Edward replied. The man called Jos finally let out a long sigh filled with disappointment. However, he could not deny the fact to his employer. "So what if she gets hurt?"Edward paused, his gaze still travelling into the dense Jungkla forest. The signal he was getting was coming from the southwest where the silver c
"Sicily, where are you going?" asked Rebecca out loud when she saw Sicily walking with a backpack. The young woman stopped her steps and turned around while spreading a smile. Her eyes moved playfully so as not to make her mum's blood boil. "Sicily, what else are you going to do out there?"Sicily walked closer to Rebecca, she took her mum's hand and kissed gently. "Don't worry about me, Mum. There's something that wants to see me," Sicily replied in a low tone. Rebecca frowned not understanding what her daughter was saying. Someone or something was very different and this was asking her to meet. An unreal statement. "Don't lie to mum, Sicily! It won't be good for your spirit," Rebecca emphasised. Sicily smiled then came closer and hugged the old woman's arm. Her head moved closer, whispering softly, "he seems like a nice man who came for me, Ma."Rebecca unravelled her daughter's embrace, her gaze looking questioningly into Sicily's beady eyes. The woman investigated what the p
