Madeleine

The Goddess shook her head, “I am not sure if I should be proud of you for asking so many questions or sad that you still cannot figure out things.”

Her words made me close my mouth that I had opened to throw hundred more doubts at her.

“What makes a person ‘alive’?”

She asked me and I answered, “The fact that he breathes?”

I stated and she probed me further, “And?”

“Uh, and his soul?”

“Correct. So now does the lich have that?”

I shook my head in answer.

The Goddess folded her hands and replied, “Creating a living being is an art of the Gods or Goddesses…not demons. They cannot create living beings like we do. But they keep trying…and now they have realized that no matter how much they try, they need a little support from us… the very Gods and goddesses they defy”

I thought hard and abruptly cut her,

“So, my blood is that source of reanimating dead beings?”

She nodded her head, “They can only create undead beings that are mere puppets, and the demon knew that I had been savi

    HaydenI looked at my warriors holding back Leo as he continued to growl at me. I searched for my pockets so as to find a pen or a marker, just something that would allow me to draw.“Guys, I want to try something. Just hold him still and I will try drawing the rune Madeleine had shown all of us back in the office.”Al of them looked at me in confusion.“Draw that rune? Why??”Charlie asked and I searched for my pockets to find a pen. Luckily, Raine had one and she quickly threw it at me.Unstoppering it, I took Leo’s palm and held it open with a bit of force using one hand while with another I tried to strain my memory to draw what she had drawn earlier.It was the rune she had spoken about of freeing the lich from this world. If she could use that as a rune to free the lich from the mortal world, I was going to try drawing it on Leo’s hand so as to free him of the lich’s curse.It was a bet, but we had too few options. Leo was the best bet for us to find the best route inside withou

    MadeleineThe lich gave an amused laugh as I heard something slither on the ground. My confusion must be visible on my face as slowly a black snake made of that same liquid which had led to the creation of the girl began to slither towards me.It had appeared somewhere from behind the cold throne the lich had been seated on.“Wondering how I still have my power when I used almost all of it to create my child?”He asked as the snake continued to slither towards me. It reached in front of the lich and rose like a big giant serpent with a large body and a menacing behavior.It hissed and the lich raised his hand as if to caress his pet or whatever it was. “This is all because of you, Madeleine. You did not think I would waste such a treasure and not save some of it for future use, right?”I merely looked at the snake and tried to scoot away from it. The lich petted its head as if it was a dog while the snake continued to hiss loudly.“Go, bring me our guests”The lich ordered and my eye

    HaydenI heard the terrified shriek and my heart began to beat frantically. That was a voice I could recognize even in my sleep.It was Raine’s and she had shrieked loudly. Raine is always a cool person who does not get startled easily. So, something must have definitely spooked her that made her scream.And, when it came to her or Madeleine, I always grew worried. Even right now it was no different.So, I simply dashed through the tunnels as my team members screamed at me, asking me to wait.Thankfully, I had memorised all the turns we had taken so I navigated myself back towards the entrance easily. I was running like a madman while Garcia and Charlie tried hard to keep up with me.“Wait for us”Charlie could keep up with me as he was used to fighting beside me but Garcia had some difficulties due to her old age. I could hear her raspy breaths and I forcibly slowed myself down. It was pointless to go and save Raine and leave behind Garcia in the process. Thus, I calmed my jittery n

    HaydenThe serpent stayed where it was and observed me as if I was some sort of curious mouse. It could kill me with a single flick of its giant tail but it simply kept looking at me.I clenched my fists and looked around again, trying to find a way out of it. Though, I knew the place was sealed. I had no weapons, no trees or rocks to take cover of and there were no spots to hide either.It was just a barren piece of land with me vs. the huge serpent. I looked at it and when my initial fear of it had subsided, I looked at it intently and realized that it was made of the same black liquid that we had found around the cave and the forest.So, in essentiality, it was not a live serpent but more of a reanimated one, like a robot that had been infused with a bit of sentience. Trying to overwhelm it with my sheer strength would not be possible as it would be a joke if I would try to do that right now. I had to tire the serpent out and find its weaknesses.I was betting on the fact that it h

    Madeleine“Do not speak to me as if you know better than I do. I will show Selene that the world is no good, that she is wrong, and that I was right all along.”That was what the lich had said to me before turning around and sending his pet serpent somewhere. And, I knew where it was going.Dread had filled my heart and I had tried to distract the lich in talking to me but it had not worked.His last line had sent an iced knife straight through my heart and somehow, I knew he had been talking to Hayden.The way he had looked at me with contempt knew that he wanted to aim for where it would hurt me the most. But I was trapped in this cave and had no idea where to go in search of Hayden.For now, I could only trust my instincts that Hayden was strong and that he would overcome every adversity.He had to…there was no other choice.As I folded my hands across my chest and worried at my lip, the lich suddenly said something.“Are you feeling bored? I have an entertainment show for you to w

    MadeleineI sat motionless on the ground, unable to process what I had seen. My eyes were telling me that I was not dreaming but my heart could not accept it.No…not could not…my heart did not want to accept it.It was as if everything good had been wiped out of the world…everything that ever made me want to smile, to live…it was as if the reason for me to exist had been snatched away from me.All I could feel was sorrow, pain, and immense hatred.As I watched the snake swallow Hayden whole I got up from the ground and turned to look at the lich.He was clearly enjoying this and my sorrow was morphing into something deadly...something that would tear me apart but I could not care less.Hayden had gone down fighting and I was fighting till my last breath as well.Meanwhile, the lich goaded on the snake’s victory and snapped his fingers as the transparent wall was once again replaced by the solid wall.“Didn’t you love him? Wasn’t he your mate? How did your ‘love’ help him?”My eyes wer

    MadeleineI was not going to be a part of the lich’s evil plan. There was no purpose for me to continue living as the pain of losing Hayden was still fresh in my mind, clawing at my heart, making it bleed.My werewolf blood helped me lessen the physical pain but the hurt that I felt at losing Hayden right in front of my eyes was too much to bear.Thus, I ran towards the dagger and caught it before either the serpent, the girl or the lich could react.“I obviously can kill myself and be free of your underground prison”I held the dagger to my throat and I felt his cloak ruffle.“Yeah, I know you need me alive, and I am not going to give my blood to turn your wretched plan a reality. Both the serpent and the girl tried to move toward me and I held the knife close to my throat.“Ask them to back off, or I will plunge this knife into my throat”I warned as I tightened my grip around the dagger’s hilt, making my knuckles almost turn white due to the pressure.“Perhaps this will put some se

    MadeleineAfter hearing my cries of begging and pleading, Leo was finally freed of the lich’s hold.He fell to the ground with a sickening thud and I meant to rush to him but the girl held me back.I was feeling so angry that I again used my elbow and drove a punch straight onto her nose.She stumbled backward and fell to the ground and this time, her hair fell to the side, revealing her face for the first time.I was just getting up from the ground but Leo’s face drained of all color as he stared at the girl.I turned to look at him and then the girl not knowing what was going on.He raised his hand in a disbelieving look and asked her, “W-what? How?”The lich once again cackled and asked in amusement, “Oh, I see that you still remember her.”Leo did not look at the lich but at the girl who was now getting up from the ground. She got up on her feet but with that same mechanical way as if she was a robot.“Who is she?” I blurted out without thinking.The way the color drained off his

    Hello, all my lovely readers, The last epilogue marks the end of the story of Hayden and Madeleine. Writing this book has been a roller coaster of emotions for me and I hope I was able to do justice to the characters and to all of you who read the story, felt what the characters felt, rooted for some of them, and hated a few. I am still a novice writer and there is a lot for me to learn and improve. In these past few months, I have received a lot of love from you all which was my biggest dream; to be recognized as a writer. Putting my story out there was like putting my bare self out in the open for everyone to judge. I know I might have made mistakes, and that there is a lot of scope for improvement. I want to thank every single one of you for giving me and my story a chance, for giving me hope that I can write captivating stories that make you forget the real world and your worries, if only for those few minutes in which you read it. Reading your comments and reviews is the bigge

  • My Fated Alpha   Epilogue III

    Epilogue (A month after the gruesome battle) Soft afternoon light spilled into the room where Madeleine was sleeping. The curtains rustled in the soft wind as she turned from side to side on the bed. For a month after the epic battle between her and the demon, she had been having nightmares. Pack doctors, herbologists, occultists and everyone who her family felt would be able to help her were called to her aid but their efforts bore little to no fruit. She was tossing and turning in her bed as Raine worried at her lip outside the room. She was carrying a tray in her hand that had a lot of different potions and medicines along with a cloth and a bowl of water. She quickly dabbed her eye and was about to reach for the door to open it when a hand stopped her. She looked at the man nervously and asked, “Are you sure, you want to do this?” He nodded his head gently and took the tray from her. “But the doctors say that it might shock her even more…” She said in the same nervous voi

    Epilogue IISelene smiled at Madeleine, teasing her, “You really love him”Madeleine merely studied her body lying on the ground and thought of a remark but could not come up with anything.Selene spoke, “It is your wish, you have to ask for it”“I want Hayden” Madeleine spoke in a low voice.“Sorry? I can’t quite hear you,” Selene acted as if she had not heard a word.Madeleine opened her mouth and closed it again. She realized that the Goddess was making fun of her but then how long would they cry and mourn over the lives they had lost?“Please give Hayden back to me”Madeleine repeated herself and Selene said, “Louder please”“Give me Hayden!!!!”Madeleine screamed and immediately clasped her hands over her mouth. She was horrified that she had almost yelled at the Goddess but Selene did not mind.“Somebody found their voice it seems”Madeleine smiled and turned to look at him.“Come”The Goddess said and Madeleine’s soul drifted towards her. Slowly, they both neared Hayden and Mad

  • My Fated Alpha   Epilogue I

    (All the epilogues are in 3rd POV instead of 1st POV)It was dark and gloomy while the pungent smell of smoke, charred flesh, and death hung heavily in the air.A silhouette of a woman was sadly walking through the ground, as silent drops of tears flowed down her cheeks. She was in pain; she was grieving and her ethereal form was blipping in and out of existence just like a candle’s flame that would fight against a breeze of wind to stay alive.She was Selene and she looked around at the wreck of a forest that she had lovingly and painstakingly nurtured. Her feet slowly took her to the demon’s corpse and she studied it impassively to see if there were any signs of the wretched demon left in that hollow vessel that he called his body.Then her eyes flicked to the severed head that lay not too far from the corpse. She picked it up and looked at it, dead in the eye.The demon’s eyes were thrown wide open, probably in shock and surprise at the way the dagger had cut through his neck. Sh

    “Noooooooo”I let out a shriek. My eyes could suddenly see well beyond my limited vision and I saw that the crack fell just short of affecting the tree, the giver of life of the forest.The cracks stopped just a few meters away from the tree that shuddered from the impact of the demon's fist that cracked open the ground.It sobbed and gave out a terrifying cry that I had never heard before. I did not even know that it could cry but maybe it was the Goddess who could hear it and not me.I looked around wildly, wanting to find something that could stop him...something, anything...My eyes spotted the very same dagger that Valrok had hurled at me to make me cut myself and give my blood.I got up and swayed a bit but made my way towards the dagger. He saw me get up and let out a mirthless laugh.“Running away from me? That is what you should have done earlier, Selene”He taunted and looked back at the tree that was far away from both of us. And, I knew what he was going to do next.“You a

    MadeleineAs I turned to the side, I saw Hayden looking at me, holding a long pole. I stared at him in shock as he raised his hands with the pole and brought it down upon me, smacking my back hard.I was so taken aback by his act that I was flung away from him and the demon. I crashed to the ground as the demon’s laughter reached me.“Fight your children, Selene”He mocked and I could feel the Goddess fuming inside me. She had been calm and composed all this while despite the demon taunting and jeering her but even a Goddess has a limit to her patience.I got up from the ground as I felt the anger wafting off me as it reached its peak. My hands shot to either side of me as I felt an uncontainable energy surge through me.The demon shot his hand forward in response as a ring of white light began to form around me. The ground below me began to crack as hellfire shot up from every possible opening, shooting straight up.The small crowd of onlookers who had dared stay back to witness our

    MadeleineI took a step forward and I saw him curl his fingers into fists.“Hello my old friend Selene, took you long enough”He greeted me and I looked at myself in confusion. It was then that I realized that I had turned into a living, breathing halo. All of my body was glowing brightly as if I was made of nothing but pure, white light.The words that left my mouth were not necessarily mine but it did not matter. The Goddess had chosen me as her vessel and I would gladly let her.“I thought you had learned your lesson last time, Valrok.”'Valrok? That must be the name of the demon', I thought.The Goddess or rather I continued speaking, “I gave you enough chances to stop this madness, to not let innocent lives suffer because of your selfish goals but you leave me no choice.”Valrok snarled, “You gave me chances? You are the one who reduced me to this state! It is because of you that I had to rely on puny humans and werewolves until I grew strong enough”“There is still time, stop th

    MadeleineEverything happened so fast but it was as if I was seeing it in slow motion. As I watched in a daze, the white beam hummed with a vibrant and restless energy. It was so bright that I had to shield my eyes for a while. I believed it must be so bright and big that almost the entire forest must have witnessed the spectacle. The entire dark night that was filled with terror and gloominess and all the negativity surrounding the demon was suddenly punctured with that beam of light. Even the demon stopped chanting for a while and looked up at the sky.His expressions, at first, were of confusion but quickly it was replaced by rage. He had left the cave and came up on the land, left his stronghold, and decided to walk on the surface thinking that he was now undefeatable.Looked like he had gotten it all wrong.A smile appeared on my face as I looked at him for a brief moment and he grimaced. I did not say anything but my expressions were more than enough for him to understand what

    MadeleineI opened my eyes and felt that my face was wet. I touched my cheek and realized that tears had trickled down my eyes. However, what I had seen was just a memory but a powerful one. My mind began to come up with various theories as I replayed them in my head. The runes, the chants with me in the centre…that had to mean something.I was not sure why the memory had been hidden from me all this while or why it had resurfaced only now but my guess would be that the similarity of my current situation with the past memory might have brought it up in vivid clarity.The words of the old man and his conversation with my parents told me once again that the lich wanted to use me not harm me.I recalled everything that had happened in the cave and realized that it had been true. Whenever Amanda tried to hurt me, the lich shunned her. My blood had been too precious for him and now I knew why.Somehow, the wizard, which was what I called him in my head because of his appearance, had combi
