CASPIAN

I watched as she walked out of the room, feeling a pang of disappointment. I had been hoping to spend more time with her, but I understood why she had left. After all, I was a stranger to her, and she was probably feeling a bit uncomfortable.

I decided to change the topic and make her feel more at ease. "Ohh by the way," I said, "why did you leave the room? It's a guest room, not mine, so you can stay there. No need to leave because of me."

She turned to face me, looking a bit surprised. "Really?" she asked, and I nodded.

"Of course," I said with a smile. "I don't want you to feel like you have to leave just because I'm here. It's a big house, and there's plenty of space for both of us."

She seemed to relax a bit at my words, and I felt a sense of relief. I didn't want her to feel like she had to walk on eggshells around me.

As she settled back into the room, I took the opportunity to study her more closely. There was something about her that intrigued me, something that made

    NATALIAI did not like it!! Totally. He was so mean! I could feel the anger boiling inside me as I thought about Romeo's behavior. He first dragged Sarah here and now when it was my responsibility to take care of my friend, he just forced me to ditch her with Caspian. I couldn't believe he would be so insensitive to my needs and my friend's.To make matters worse, he was walking way too fast for my condition. My feet ache and my back is throbbing with pain. It's becoming increasingly difficult to keep up with him. I tug at his arm, trying to slow him down, but he seems oblivious to my discomfort."Stop it, Romeo!" I said angrily while I get succeed in freeing my hand from his. "Are you out of your mind? What kind of behavior is this? I am pregnant and you are moving too fast!"I could feel my heart racing as I stare at him, waiting for a response. He looked surprised for a moment, but then his face clouds over with anger."What's the big deal?" he snapped. "You're always complaining a

    NATALIAI stretched my body, feeling the tension in my muscles ease as I straightened my arms above my head. It felt like it had been ages since I had felt so light and carefree. As I lay in bed, my eyes still closed, I savored the sensation of the soft duvet covering my body and the warmth emanating from the soft bed underneath me. It made me sigh contentedly, and a small smile touched my lips.I couldn't resist the urge to touch my face and my body, savoring the feeling of every inch of my skin. I was lost in the moment until suddenly, my eyes flew open when I realized something wasn't quite right. I looked down and gasped when I saw the white silk oversized shirt that I was wearing.My heart started to race as I tried to piece together how I ended up in this shirt. I sat up on the bed frantically, scanning the room for any clues as to what had happened. And then I heard Romeo's voice from across the room."What you were wearing wasn't ideal for you to sleep in when your pregnancy."

    ROMEOI couldn't believe what Natalia had just said. She claimed she couldn't forget what I did to her, even though I did everything for her. It made me wonder, what else could I have possibly done to prove my love to her?But then again, maybe that was the problem. Women are so hard to understand. No one can ever say for sure what's going on in their hearts. Despite my efforts, Natalia still wouldn't let me be with her. Even after I had slayed the woman who was the reason behind her miserable life, she didn't realize that I had done it all for her.What she also didn't realize was that I had to face the consequences of slaying the Luna of this pack without informing the Alpha council. I had told them that I was going to get rid of Veronica, but I never revealed my exact plan. And now, my love for Natalia was putting my position as Alpha at risk. If the Alpha council deemed that I had sinned by not informing them beforehand, I could lose everything.But instead of staying by my side du

    NATALIARomeo agreed to let me go. Just like that. I couldn't believe it. I had expected him to put up a fight, to insist that I stay with him, but instead, he just nodded and said, "Okay."I was relieved, of course. I had been planning this escape for weeks, and now it seemed that it might actually work. But then, Romeo said something that made my heart jump up to my mouth.He was going to find out the father of the child.I had done everything I could to hide the fact that I was pregnant with his child. I had avoided his touch, made excuses for my sickness, and even gone so far as to run a secret DNA test. When the results came back, confirming what I had suspected, that I was carrying Romeo's baby, I had felt a strange mix of joy and fear.Joy, because I had always wanted to have a child with Romeo. Fear, because I knew that if he found out, he would never let me leave.Now, it seemed that he had already found out. Maybe he had run his own DNA test, or maybe he had just figured it

    ROMEOI could feel my blood boiling as I watched Sebastian try to make a move toward Natalia. "Do you think I let you in here so you can take her? In your fucking dreams," I spat, the anger making my voice come out in a low growl. I stepped towards him, ready to defend what was mine.Without warning, I kicked Sebastian in his stomach, my foot connecting with a satisfying thud. He doubled over, coughing up blood, and I felt a sense of satisfaction wash over me. He was strong, but he wasn't strong enough to compare to me. I towered over him, my eyes blazing with fury.Natalia struggled in my arms, trying to break free and go to Sebastian, to check on him, but it only provoked me further. I tightened my grip on her, whispering in her ear, "Do you think I will let you go with him baby doll? You let him touch yourself and if that was not enough you came back with such a big belly. I can't hurt you, you know that? I can't hurt that baby coz it will hurt you."I looked down at Sebastian, a s

    NATALIAI walked away from him, without arguing. There was no point, I knew it by now. Romeo had always been a master manipulator, able to twist my words and thoughts until I was left feeling confused and defeated. No matter how hard I tried, I could never win an argument with him.As I walked through the dimly lit hallway, I felt a sense of dread building inside me. I didn't know where I wanted to go, or where I could hide from him. Romeo had eyes and ears everywhere, and he always seemed to know my every move.I had to play his game, and I had to play it better than ever before. After Killing Veronica, Romeo gained more power than anyone, and I knew I was in danger.But for now, I went to the safe place, my room. As I closed the door in a hurry and slid down with my back to the door, I let out a deep sigh. It was a small relief to be alone in the darkness, away from his watchful eyes."No, I was not expecting this kind of reaction!" I said out loud to myself. "I can't stay here anym

    NATALIAMy heart was pounding as I saw the silhouette of a border guard emerge from the shadows. Fear gripped my chest, making it hard to breathe. If he saw me, I knew that I was as good as dead. Romeo would never forgive me for running away, and he would make sure that I paid the ultimate price.I stood frozen for a moment, unsure of what to do. But I couldn't just stay there and wait for the guard to find me. I took a deep breath and let go of the rope, dropping the last few feet to the ground. I landed on the grass softly, but for the patrol guards, it was a thud that was sure to alert them. Their ears were sharper than any other wolf, which was why they were given the duty of patrolling.I rolled to my feet, feeling the impact jar my bones. I grabbed my bag and sprinted towards the treeline, my heart pounding in my chest as I ran. I darted my eyes back and forth, searching for any sign of pursuit. I didn't stop until I was deep in the forest, far from the border and the guards tha

    NATALIARomeo's hand tightened on my arm, and he leaned in close to me, his breath hot on my neck. "And make no mistake, Natalia," he said, his voice low and dangerous. "I will chain you up. You will learn your place in this pack, even if it kills you."I felt a shiver run down my spine as I realized the full extent of his threat. Romeo wasn't just going to punish me for running away - he was going to break me, to make me submit to him completely.But even as fear and despair threatened to overwhelm me, I refused to give up. I refused to let him win."I won't let you," I said, my voice trembling with anger and determination. "I won't let you do this to me, Romeo. I won't let you break me."Romeo's grip on my arm tightened, and I could feel his anger simmering just beneath the surface. But then he released me and stepped back, his eyes locked on mine."We'll see about that," he said, his voice cold and hard. "For now, you can stay with Sarah. But don't think for a second that you're saf

    SYDNEYMy fingers danced nervously over the phone's keypad as I dialed Romeo's number. The urgency in my chest fueled the anxiety in my voice when he finally picked up."Romeo, it's Sydney," I blurted out, the words tumbling over each other. "I need your advice. Should I head to Natalia's now? Something just doesn't feel right, like there's an eerie cloud hanging over her due date."There was a pause on the other end, and then he asked, "What's going on?"It's hard to explain," I began, struggling to find the right words. "It's like there's something malevolent inside her, something beyond the ordinary. I can't shake this feeling that the child she's carrying isn't just a bundle of joy. It's like there's a darkness, and it's threatening both her and the baby."I could almost hear Romeo furrowing his brow on the other end. "Darkness? What do you mean?"I mean, it's as if there's an evil presence in her womb," I confessed, my voice dropping to a hushed tone. "And I'm afraid that once that chi

    ELVINAAlone in the dimly lit chamber, the oppressive weight of my actions hangs in the air, suffocating me like a dense fog. The flickering candles cast dancing shadows on the intricately carved runes etched into the cold stone floor, each symbol a testament to the forbidden path I've tread. Natalia lies motionless on the altar, her presence a fragile vessel for the soul I sought to resurrect. As the cold reality settles in, doubt snakes through my mind like a relentless serpent. The initial madness that drove me to perform the forbidden ritual now morphs into a gnawing unease. Regret, thick and palpable, permeates the atmosphere, saturating the very air I breathe. What was once a desperate bid to bring back my sister now feels like a pact with shadows and echoes. A solitary tear traces a path down my cheek, its journey mirroring the torment within. Natalia, vulnerable and unconscious, is now the unwitting conduit for a force beyond her understanding. The chamber, once filled with th

    DANIELI was seriously frustrated, like a fire about to explode, as I gripped Elvina's shoulder. My eyes shot a warning, trying to convey the urgency of what I was about to say. "I warned you, Elvina! Stay away from Natalia!" You could practically feel the echoes of my caution lingering in the charged air around us. Elvina's eyes were a storm of defiance as she forcefully pulled my hand away from her shoulder. Her words were sharp, cutting through the room. "You can't control me. Unless you want her to die, that is. The child she's carrying is the reincarnation of my sister, and her soul is not something anyone can dictate or tolerate."The room turned into an emotional battlefield, with unspoken truths and the weight of our complicated history thickening the air. I was torn between protecting Natalia and trying to wrap my head around the profound connection Elvina felt.

    NATALIAMy heart raced like the staccato beat of distant drums as I approached Romeo, the flickering candlelight in the dimly lit room casting shadows on my face. The air crackled with the anticipation of finally meeting my twin sister, Dahlia— a reunion I had yearned for since the moment I discovered her existence. "Romeo," I began, my voice a delicate symphony tinged with excitement, "have you managed to reach Sebastian? I can't bear the agonizing wait any longer—I need to see Dahlia."Romeo's eyes, a canvas of uncertainty, met mine as he shook his head, "I haven't been able to get in touch with him yet, Natalia."A surge of frustration tightened its grip on my chest, like a vine constricting around my heart. I knew all too well the significance of Sebastian's elusive approval, especially in light of the unique bond he shared with Dahlia. "This is unbearable," I sighed, my impatience echoing in the hushed room. The scent of aged parchment and ancient secrets hung in the air, underscor
