MADDOXI sat in my secret room, with my eyes shut and still trying to preserve my powers.My wound is hurting more and more, and I still can't get hold of the witch. In order not to let the poison spread quickly, I need to stay in a more quiet environment and avoid doing much strenuous work.I made everyone believe I went on a journey, but only Zeus knew I was in the pack.He didn't bother to find out why I had been idling all these days, knowing I wasn't ready to let him know the truth.Once Zeus gets to know about the poison she won't be spared.Even if I don't want Hazel, my wolf wants me to protect her.“Alpha,” I heard Zeus call for me, in a flash I was on my clothes as I heard his footsteps move close.“She has begun her training and is looking well and active now,” Still not opening my eyes I nodded.Hearing the news that she is active made Salvatore feel relieved. I have never seen him as flustered for anyone as he was when Hazel lost consciousness for three days. “Why can't
HAZEL POVI exhale with my lips parted and trying to grasp for air, I have been running the lap now for the 34th time, and it's dark already and I still wasn't allowed to rest till I am done on the first day.The full moon shone brightly in the sky, and the Wolves kept howling hysterically charging at the woods.I am used to seeing this in Darren's pack, but this time it is different because they are totally different from the werewolf.Still trying to force myself to run, I felt a great speed sprinting past me, pushing me to the ground."Aww," I groaned now, sustaining a wound, and I watched how it healed slowly.I sighed and sat on the floor too exhausted, just then I saw Anderson appear before me, still with those cold looks, but I averted my gaze from him.I might be stubborn but know exactly when to back down, I can tell he holds great power and can crush me in just seconds.A bottle was stretched toward me, compelling me to look up at him, I scoffed and declined it as I forced m
MADDOX “I smell wolfsbane,” her eyes widened and turned plain white, then she laughed hysterically.“The king of the Lycan has been poisoned.. finally I will..” I sped forward and hit her channel making her words cut short.She turned back to her normal self and disappeared.“Go away, I will never help you, even if the whole of the Lycanthropes are on their knees.” her voice echoed.“Then I can just burn the whole place down and send my men to..” She appeared before me again with a shocking gaze, stretching her hands toward me to hand her amulet."Nope, you want me to destroy it?" She shook her head continuously.“What do you want? I left your world and still you came after me.” Salvatore grinned and slowly we changed into our human form.“Save me and I will never disturb you,” She shot me a long, weird gaze and another round of laughter echoed.“I can't help you,” she responded.Salvatore lost it and began choking her.“You may be the most powerful witch but I can still make you s
HAZELMy whole breath stopped, and I felt something twitch in me like it came alive, my heart thumping so fast.“What the actual heck is going on here!” As if regaining my senses I kicked Maddox, earning a grunting sound from him.She ran to Maddox wanting to help him up, “Oh my goodness Maddox what is..”But he swatted her hands off, closing his eyes trying to regain himself.I forced myself up and a slap landed me on the ground again. “How dare you slut try to seduce my man?” I was stunned by this.“I..”“Shut that damn mouth up, you are only a guest, or perhaps a slave who gets to his favor, use it wisely little brat!” She screamed at me, while I just stood there staring at her speechless.“Brianna, it wasn’t her fault,” Maddox growled, but before he could explain things I cut him off.“I am so sorry, for trying to seduce the Alpha,” I apologized and left the room.Despite Maddox trying to stop me from going, I didn't look back.I went to the room given to me and this was when I no
HAZEL A MONTH LATER"Go go go!" The girls kept chanting until my back hit the ground and the chanting stopped abruptly.I tapped out seeing my power isn't as strong as the peeps I have been fighting with.Even though they are ladies, they are still way stronger than me.These few weeks haven't been too good for me, even though my training isn't like that of a punishment, I still find it hard to compete with them.I missed my wolf so much, I missed my sister, if only there was a way to meet her if only there was a way to connect with her.I suddenly can't feel her pain, and that keeps getting me worried.A month without her made me feel devastated, I am filled with terrific thoughts of what Darren might have done to my twin sis.That bastard Maddox has never shown his face to me after what he said in front of his soon-to-be Lyna now making take any moment from her freaking free time to torment me."Haven't you still gotten the hint that we don't want you here!" The lady who had won m
HAZEL“You must be going crazy,” I cracked out and stood straight now. “If you feel you want to use that in making me fulfill your wish then you are wrong.” I laughed out loud.I have always wondered if the moon goddess would be nice to give me a mate. Sometimes Ivy will bring up topics about us having a mate.But because of the constant torture we go through and the thought of how I could get Maddox I never thought I would meet my mate one day.“I can because I could feel you, I came because you were closer, I didn’t kill her because my wolf could sense that you don't want that.” I peered into his eyes, to see if there was any trace of a lie but I couldn’t even tell.I don’t know him that much and he only helped me once.“But you are a Rogue,” He smiled and now moved closer to me, “Your medallion," he extended his hand but I slapped it away from me, covering my chest.“I don’t let strangers touch it,” I said and he shook his head.“I might still be a stranger because your wolf is
HAZEL"I won't, you bastard! I don't care whatever you think of me." His words were like a blade to her heart reminding her how she was used by Darren and even made other men sleep with her and felt so hurtful.She just wants to forget all these pasts, she wants to heal herself but it keeps coming back.His eye color changed and I could tell him that it was Maddox."Leave," he said to me, battling hard with Salvatore to take control of his body."Never!" Salvatore growled fighting back. Salvatore moved close to me, pushing me to fall on the bed."Let me go, I don't want to have anything to do with you monster," I saw the way his eyes displayed that of hurt but I couldn't care less, I just wanted to leave this room now."He climbed onto me, with his fangs out, "I will make you mine," he roared and this made my eyes widen."If there is one thing I never want is letting someone else mark me as his when I just find out my mate."No!" I screamed out, but he strangled my neck, stopping me
HAZELMy body hurt like shit, I fluttered my eyes open only to be met and two curious gazes peering into my soul.I flickered severally and as if something woke in them they smiled at me.“Finally,” they both squealed and pulled me into a tight embrace.“We missed you so much,” they both let out and that got my attention.“Why would you miss me?” I was confused. They both shared some glances and looked back at me.“You have been knocked out for almost four days, what did you do?” They asked with worried gazes.“Four days?” I was dumbfounded trying to grasp the situation, but I was still strong enough when he saved me. Why did I get knocked out for four days?“Hey… Lesley, let's not play with her.” Christina hit Lesly on her shoulder and this got her giggling.“I want to know details of what took place.” They sighed again before Christina finally said something.“You lost consciousness after Alpha saved you, if he hadn't butted in you would be dead.” I could tell how worried she was,
IVYAs my so-called sister walked out of the room with that of her so-called lover.I sighed in relief but didn't accept the fact that he had noticed something was wrong when I mentioned danger.I glanced at both ladies who were asked to help me instead, I didn't want to show the reasons to suspect me.Thank goodness easily captured my sister's feelings without him trying to get anyone's suspicions.“Lady….” one of the ladies stopped mid-sentence like they were trying to get my name.“Ivy, my name is Ivy..” I helped out, I decided to sit well and they both flew down to me trying to help me sit.“Water..” I muttered and one of them got me water, “Thanks,” I appreciated from the bottom of my heart.Nothing was wrong with me. Sire Maverick had made me this way so I would be able to win my sister's sympathy.I could swear I almost loved her kindness when she saw me, the way she got scared of losing me.“Wow, we both can't express how happy we are to see you here,” I was curious about what
ZEUS POVI shifted away from the door when Maddox dropped the bombshell, telling Hazel she was his mate. My heart shattered into a million pieces. I had always hoped, always believed, that Hazel would be mine.Always seeing the way she yelled at him because she hated him made me feel oddly satisfied.I had thought he brought her here because he wanted her for something else, but that was all in my imagination.As Maddox's beta, I had stood by his side, loyal and true. But my feelings for Hazel went far beyond loyalty. No, it seemed that dream was lost forever.I couldn't bear it, the one to see Maddox and Hazel together. I needed to get out, to clear my head.I decided to go to the only hope I had now. Knowing Alpha wouldn't be needing my attention for now I left the pack.It was a bit of a far journey but I could make it easily, the moment I stepped into their territory I felt the presence of men.“Don't cross your limit, you can tell I am the beta of the Frostfang pack, you don't w
HAZELAs I stood before the pack, my eyes locked onto a figure that made my heart skip a beat. “Ivy,” I whispered again.I felt like I had been punched in the gut, my breath knocked out of me.Emotions swirled inside me like shock, joy, fear, and disbelief. I took a step forward, my legs trembling beneath me. Ivy's eyes met mine, and I saw a glimmer of recognition before her gaze dropped.I felt a lump form in my throat as I took another step closer. Ivy's face was gaunt, her eyes sunken, but she was still my sister.I reached out a trembling hand, and Ivy's eyes fluttered closed. She swayed, and I rushed to catch her, feeling a surge of panic. I cradled her limp form, tears streaming down my face."Maddox, help!" I cried out.As I held Ivy, I felt a deep connection, a bond that went beyond words. I rocked her gently, whispering her name.She was still breathing fine and then her eyes fluttered.She was too weak, “Finally I found you,” she whispered and then shut her eyes again, I sh
HAZELThe door opened and I strutted inside with Lesley and Christianah, by my side.I could see Maddox staring down at us, and Marissa also stood with the eldersEveryone rose in respect, as I strutted inside the room. With my head high.Today was my coronation day, and I was about to become the Luna of the pack. I had worked hard to get to this point, and I was determined to prove myself worthy of the title.All I see today are the disapproving faces of the three powerful elders, including Marissa along with some members.I knew they didn't want me for this role, but I was determined to prove them wrong.The ritual began, and I was led to the center of the hall. One of the elders stepped forward, holding a small, delicate bowl. "Hazel, you have been chosen to be our Luna, but first, you must prove yourself more worthy."I knew they would play another kind of game but I wouldn't give up easily to them.I had what it took to be a great Luna. They might not know it as an Alpha daugh
HAZELA WEEK LATERAs I stand before the mirror, I gaze at my reflection, adorned in a breathtakingly beautiful gown, tailored specifically for my coronation as the Luna of the pack. The dress is a mesmerizing shade of midnight blue, reminiscent of a clear night sky.The gown hugs my curves perfectly, showcasing my toned physique, obtained from rigorous training.A silver embroidery adorns the bodice. My heels are crafted from polished silver. The stilettos are adorned with tiny, glittering diamonds, adding a touch of luxury and sophistication to my overall ensemble.My hair cascades down my back like a waterfall of night. I've chosen to wear it down, with loose waves framing my face, accentuating my sharp features and piercing green eyes. As I behold my reflection, I feel an overwhelming sense of pride and power. I am Hazel, the soon-to-be Luna, and I am ready to claim my rightful place among the pack.I was going to become Luna today, and the thought sent shivers of excitement d
MADDOXI watched in awe as Hazel raised her hand and screamed, "I won!" She didn't kill Brianna despite the rules Aunt Marissa implemented.But the next thing I knew, was her falling to the ground. I was terrified as I rushed towards her, not caring about what anyone else said. Rage fills me when I see Zeus, beside her before I can get to her.“Get your fuvking hands off my Luna,” I snapped at him, pulling him back and choking him by the collar of his shirt. "She's my woman now. I'd love it if you stepped back from her." I glared at him, my eyes severe with warning. I don't want to have this childish conversation. I've been hiding my feelings, but seeing the way the two are always together... it's like you're taunting me. All I want is for her to look at me the way she looks at him, but no, I have to beg for her care, her love, despite being her mate.Zeus isn't at fault since she still can't recognize me as her mate, but I knew I had to make him understand. "I'm sorry, Alpha. I
HAZELIt's finally the day, the day that will determine my victory or loss, the day I'll prove to myself if I can win or lose.All eyes will be on me today, most hoping for my failure. But I aim to prove many wrongs today.My body aches from intense training. "Lady Hazel, you'll make us proud, won't you?" Lesley's words brought a faint smile to my face."Maybe, maybe not," I pondered as they stood before me."You are free to play dirty, but all we want is for you to defeat that beast," Lelsey exclaimed, earning a playful jab from Christiana.“Aww, that's hurt..” Lesley groans with a pouty lip. She felt bad but still wanted to stand her ground that what she had said was wrong so she pretended not to see her.I took in a deep breath and rose from my chair, but my butt bumped against the chair back.They both wore concerned expressions as they took hold of my hand. "What's the matter, Luna?" they asked, looking worried.I attempted to stand up straight, but the same thing repeated itself
HAZEL I pushed Maddox exhausted body out of mine, I don't know the feeling I was having now but one thing was for sure I was not happy.“Get back to your senses,” I told him, and as I tried getting up he pulled me back roughly, “That's the only way I can heal,” he muttered, I rolled my eyes and slapped his hands off.“Are you going to wash your wounds off or you are still trying to be crazy around me?” he groaned and sat on the bed.I helped him pull off his blood apparel, it was hard because he moaned at every second it touched his skin. Then I helped him to the bathroom.Pulling off his armless shirt I was more than shocked to see the place I had stabbed him still looking fresh like just happened last night.While the wound on his chest slowly disappeared, I tried touching it but he grabbed my hands shaking his head.“Why is it still looking fresh…” I stopped mid-way with the way he had gazed at me.“Seriously? You are going to ask me that question,” I rolled my eyes at him.“Are y
HAZELI dashed toward Maddox looking worried, “Open… your eyes please,” I whispered as I pulled him into a tight embrace.He was bleeding badly from his chest, his black apparel already soaked with blood.“Hey, why isn't he healing?” I asked in shock.I turned back only to be met with the lady and not Ivy, “Wh… You tricked me?”“You are forgetting your sister and your plan, I needed to refresh it,” she let out curtly.“My plan?” I asked, aghast, “You have nothing to do with my plan, he is mine, mine to kill, why butt into it!” furry was washing over me.“Who are you exactly and how much did you know about me?” I pressed on, already getting wary of her.“Like the poison which is killing you slowly despite being closer to him,” only then did the pain reside.“Or should I talk about your sister who you suddenly abandoned and only think about living a good life?” she added.“Ivy?” I called, letting go of Maddox, “She…?She is alive?” she smirked and then turned her back against me.I ran t
