Julian's POV" I'm sorry it had to be this way. I have always been loyal to you. And I still am. Just know, as I act, I am doing this for the both of us."I had managed to tie Xavier up with ropes dunked in wolf's bane. It was the only way to stop him from getting in my way.He grunted and howled in pain as h is flesh burned." Untie me right now! Stop this madness. You can't do this."That ticked me off." I can and I will! This should be what both of us should be doing together but you have somehow developed a soft spot for the enemies lately. Everything is breaking down because you are letting it. You should have been the one leading this but you chose to let things go. Well I won't. I am going to destroy everything that woman hold dear to her. I'll make her feel pain worth all those years we had to stay alive and watch everything g disappear in front of our eyes. It's time to finish this once and for all. "I panted after letting it all out. I sighed and turned my back on him befo
Sandra's POVThat man has officially lost his mind. I did too. I was all for his hatred and revenge until recently. I realized that he cared not for anyone but himself. What made me not want to be with anymore is his cold dismissal of his son. I understand that he has no feeling for me but to be this indifferent about his child, that cruel. In the end, we were nothing but pawns in his game but of course, I knew that from the beginning and I still dived in head first.I wanted to help him to achieve what ever his heart desires because that is all I have wanted. Now I know that I was just blinded by my one sided feelings. It made a lot of mistakes that I can't fix. Now that I have Jude, my little boy, I want to try and fix things. I want to take him and go start my life afresh. I don't know if that is possible but I want to try. I only have him and I am the only one for him.So in the light of everything that had happened, I want to do something. I have been planning on meeting up with
Brielle's POVSince the moment I rejoined the party, it's been going on strong. People were dancing and enjoying themselves to the fullest. The night was still young. Blake, Kyle, Morgan and I were seated at our table just talking and drinking some wine. We already had dinner so now it's was just a kickback. I don't know when this party was going to end but I wax starting feel a little bit sleepy.Ealier in the night, I introduced myself to the Alphas and Lunas from nearby neighboring packs. They were so kind in my face but behi d my back, they made comments about being a human Luna was unsuitable. I let it slide because I didn't want to get into a confrontation with them and give rise to unnecessary tention. There was no reason to ruin the night over such a trivial matter. I have been already made Luna and no matter what thryb think or say, it won't change.I wasn't going to feel said over what peoole I don't even know or care about what they think of me. Introductions were done and
Blake's POVThat scream. They are already here. We don't have time. Trouble was upon us. We did not even see this coming. I should have stayed on guard at all times. One moment Of weakness and The enemy got their chance to sneak up us. Everyone out there will be in danger. How do I keep them safe without knowing from where the enemy will appear. This is really bad. It's not only pack members that are out there, guests are also here that will be insued here.I made contact with the boarder patrol to be on guard and tighten security. How many are the enemies. It's been a while, in fact an attack on the pack had never occured for a long time. Even before I was born. I am not experienced in this. No matter what, I need get a grip and keep my cool." Blake! Its him. He is already here. What do we do?" Brielle cried out. She had just calmed down from her panic attack.I wish I could tell her that things were going to be fine but honestly, I was scared as well. This was too sudden and we are
BrielleAftet Blake and Kyle left us, his father took us to basement in the house. I've never seen this place before but I guess the was never a reason for me to know about this place before now. I quietly went inside as Blake wanted but everything in my heart screamed for me to run out there. I could feel it in my heart that things were going to go badly wrong. But I was afraid that in my current state, I would be of no use to anyone. I would just be in the way and in the end he would have to save me again.I was feeling the same way I felt that day. As helpless and destraught. There is nothing I can do. I was so lost in thought but Morgan got me out of it." Hey, are you okay. You are as pale as a sheet and you have been out of it for a while now."I couldn't find words to speak. My anxiety was at its peak. My mind was scrambled. I internally took deep calmed myself down.I shook my head at her." I am fine, Morgan. I'm just a little scared. I've never been in a situation like this
Blake's POVI don't know what is happening but something isn't right. No matter what we did, these wolves just kept coming without an end. And still, Julian was a no show. I have to end this quickly and make sure that everything was fine. As much we are fighting these rogues, they are sure fighting back and we have lost a lot of warriors. My body is full of wounds that are not healing fast enough. The only thing in my mind is fighting to survive and get back to Brielle.I kept checking on Kyle just to make sure he didn't die. I made a promise to myself that I will protect him. He has a family waiting for him. I am sure it is what is fueling him to survive. We have to survive at all cost. It can't end up like the last time or this life would have been an epic waste of time. So far we have managed to keep them at bay but they have been pushing back and I am afraid they will break through and we won't be able to keep up with all of them.I got distracted for a second and left an opening
The plan was in motion. Everything was ready for us to go and attack the Blue Moon pack. Sandra was nowhere to be seen. No one had seen her. I figured she must have run away as well so I let her. When I need her the most she chose to run away. And the she wanted me to love her but from the get go, she didn't deserve a shred of my attention. She better pray that she never has to cross paths with me ever again. I wasn't going to let her escape deter the plan.The guys and I are going to be meeting in the woods before we head off to battle. I kept thinking about Xavier. He must be suffering because that wolfsbsne but I can't let him go. He will ruin everything. I will ask for his forgiveness when it's all over.All the warriors and I went over the plan once more and headed to the Blue Moon pack. I was probably leading them to their deaths but it was needed. They just have to fight for their lives if they want to get our of this alive. I am not taking weakling with me. I am taking my sele
Brielle's POVMiranda and Morgan were looking at me with horror on their faces. One minute I was desperately banging on the door and now I blew a hole open in the basement. I got angry, extremely angry and a surge of power coursed through my veins. I didn't know what to do or how to stop it but the feeling was familiar. I let it all out.I was shocked as well but but I was glad that it happened. All of us heard a groan of pain under the rubble. Julian was banged up from the impact of the blast." You guys stay here. I'll handle this."" No, stop, Brielle. What just happened?" Morgan asked still looking mortified." I don't know, okay. I don't know but I need to get this man out here so yoy can be safe."" Did you do that?" Morgan asks looking at me.I didntc answer her. I knew what this was but its a side about me that I never told them about. I was suddenly afraid of what they will think about me. But they saw what I did and there is no way I can deny it and they won't unsee it. So I
Brielle's POV5 years later"Yay! Mommy I did it, I did it!" River jumped up and down in joy after scoring a goal. Blake ran towards him and picked him up and placed him on his shoulder and spun him around." Good shot my boy! You are a super star!" Blake said to river.Mia got on her feet as well. She pulled me and said, " Mommy, I want to kick the ball too. I can do it too."I smiled at her knowing where this was going. Typical little Mia. Ever since she was born, she seemed to be on her own path. She didn't want to be her brother's little sister. She wanted to be older and better than him. Her competitiveness was cute but a little concerning at time.I remember one time she and River were climbing a tree in the garden. They were competing on who could go higher than the other. Of course River was going to win. She did something surprising. She pulled River's leg and he lost his balance and fell off the tree, breaking his arm.I was so shocked that day I didn't know what to do. She
5 months laterBrielle's POVI didn't know that pregnancy would be such a pain. Mood swings, swollen feet, cravings, back pain, you name it. I never thought one of those pregnant ladies who got emotional over every little thing or get weird cravings but guess what, I am. The other day, I wanted a raw mango. Later it was mint chocolate. I hate mint. It tastes like fucking toothpaste but now that I craved it, I suddenly couldn't get enough of it.My feet got swollen a lot and Blake loved giving me a massage. When I cried and cursed him out for getting pregnant, he never lost his patience with me. Instead, he gathered me in his arms as best as he could and would let me chew him out but in the end, he would whisper sweet nothings into my ear, telling how beautiful I am and how lucky he was to have me. That made me feel a lot better. The garden was my favourite place these days. Just sitting on a rocking chair under the tree watching other little kids running around carefree made my heart
Blake's POVIt's been an hour since I came down as my mother requested. I was sitting amongst everyone but my mind was back with Brielle. Each moment spent away from her, I he'd back from running back to her. I was so lost, everything happening in front of me was a blur. I couldn't be there anymore. I was too restless and it wasn't helping. VI excused myself and made my way upstairs. Opening the door to my room I thought I would find Brielle still laying on the bed but she was no where. I went inside in alarm. Where is she? I looked around the room wandering if she had finally regained consciousness. If she did, where is she? Where did she go without anyone noticing? In what condition is she in?I was about to go search for outside but I heard water running in bathroom. I looked in the direction of the bathroom. She must be in there. I went there and went inside. She had her back facing me. I felt all kinds of emotions flowing through me as I thought my eyes were deceiving me. Not un
Brielle's POV" Relax. I'm not here for that."No soul? Then what? What would a demon be doing here if not to come and collect what he is owed? That is not really what concerns me at the moment. I want to survive. I can't leave yet." What do you want. Tell me!" I acted tough. I can't show that I am scared." Must you always think the worst of me? I came all the way here to help you," he said to me sounding a little offended.I couldn't make out whether he was serious or just pulling my leg for fun. Right now, I am desperate and I am afraid that what ever dispicable schemes that Kael came with, I might just fall for. But at this point, what could be worse than promising him my soul?I decided to hear him out. It's not like I have any other choice anyway." Fine. I'll listen to what you have to say. I warn you that I am not in a tolerant mood so this better be worth it."He snickered." I might be a demon from he but I'm not as bad as you think. No matter. We will have all the time in
2 weeks laterBlake's POVI was sitting beside Brielle as she slept peacefully. It's been a very rough fortnight. Ever since that night, everything has been bleak. As the days go by without any change from her I get scared. The baby is fine but Brielle won't wake up. I am afraid that she might stay in such a state for a long time. What of our child. She might not get to see the baby be born. I was at a dead end in what to do. I blame myself. I should have tried with my all to stop her from performing that darned ceremony. It almost cost her life.For all those days, I refused to leave her side. Anything could happen and I don't want to be away. I stayed in the room all day and had my meals sent here. I made sure that it doesn't get suffocating. I opened the windows during the day and let fresh air come in during the day, I handle everything she needed and I wasn't comfortable with letting other people do it.I always made sure to talk to her hoping that she can hear me and hang on to
Brielle's POVIt was now the moment we have been waiting for. This part of the ritual had to be done by me. Now that we have acquired the hell fire, it was time I do what I was meant to do so we can finally part ways with Julian and Xavier." Deceiving us was wrong, Kyra but I'll consider that you ultimately helped us in the end. Let us complete the final step and then all of us will then go our sepernt ways."" Thank you for understanding. I will find a way in the future to repay you."We went to another room with Julian and Xavier with us.I had the flame with me and it's still surreal that I went through such lengths to get it. I wasn't going to complain. My soul doesn't matter if it means that I get to keep my family safe and ensures that we do not suffer the same tragedy all of over again. No matter how had I tried, I couldn't bring myself to have faith in their word. It was my mistake back then. This is just Rte price to fix it." Alright. What do I need to do to get get this ov
Blake's POVI've been playing along with what Kyra said for long enough. Now that this demon has been summoned, I'm not going to let my guard down or stay back. My duty here is to protect Brielle until everything is over. And that Kyra, she completely deceived us. She never mentioned that she knew this Kael demon. Why would she do that? Something about this just doesn't feel right." Whats the price for the flame?" Brielle asked. I still didn't let her come in front. Whatever happens, I will stand in front her like a shield. It's a good thing she wasn't protesting." Mmh, nothing much. I just need a soul. One should for this exchange," Kael said nonchalantly like what he wants was a piece of cake." Any soul?" Brielle askedI turned to look at her. Her expression was cold as she looked at Kael." No, not just any soul. I've been surrounded by rotten souls for such a long time. This time, I want a pure soul.. If you can manage that, then we have a deal."Something with the way he was l
Brielle's POVThings were proceeding as planned. It's been four days since we visited Kyra. Tonight was the night we perform the summoning ceremony. As for Xavier and Julian, Blake has already dealt with them and they understand everything about the ceremony. We informed everyone as well and they were worried but supportive as well.I blame myself for everything that is going on. If I just did not put that spell on them, they might have not been in our lives right now. If only I could turn back time. I would be able to set a lot things right. But enough about that. I can't do anything about that but I can so something right now. I should get ready. It's going to be a difficult night.I was in the room when I heard someone knock on the door." Come in," I saidMorgan came inside the room. She looked worried. She's been trying to stop me from going. I understand that age is concerned but I can't stop now." I'm just here to wish you luck before you. I would hate for you to leave without
Brielle's POVI was nervous the whole time but I glad I was with Blake. What Kyra was saying made a lot of sense. Although I never read too much into it, I know that no living ham can acquire hellfire. I was just hoping there would be an easy way out of this mess.I was a witch but I must admit that I never got to fully develop. I was a novice witch. I can't say I wish I stayed at the coven with my mother bacause then my life would have been miserable. I lived her but she was a control freak. She wanted to keep me sheltered and away from the world. I felt like a bird in a cage. I wanted to go out and experience the world, live amongst the people and be a part of the bigger world.I get that sh wanted to protect us but I didn't want to live in darkness without ever experiencing the beauty of the world and life. In any case, it's all in the past. What's done is done. Even so, I hope to become a better mom to my child. I hope I can do it.Blake looks at me when Kyra mentioned a demon pac
