Xavier's POVDarius has entrusted me to find dark witches in Salem. I know most of them. I have gone to most of them to ask them to help me to walk during the daylight. But none of them could help me. However, I have a perfect relationship with most of them, as I use them a lot to help me when I have to fight for my position in the city. They like me because I give them a lot of secret ingredients that I need for their spells. I have made many mistakes, but I will not make any mistakes this time. I am going to bring Darius what he asked of me. He is like a father to me. For the first time, I think I belong somewhere. I no longer have to be the king of vampires, as I am fighting by the king's side. Iona might think she is the queen of vampires, but I have to figure out how to save Darius when Iona dies. After this fight, he promised to take me to his European castle. I know he has promised me this city, but I would rather be by his sight and fight by his side as he is the father of vam
Darius' POVXavier has exceeded my expectations. I did not expect him to come with so many witches. He promised they would be here at ten o'clock, and many showed up. I know dark witches. They are here for their benefit. But I do not care. They may not be as strong as my witches, but my witches can teach them a lot of magic in the meantime while we plan what we are going to do. I know we have to bridge the barrier of the magical wolves. I also know it will not be as easy as it sounds. My witch cannot do it alone. They will have to teach these witches how to become stronger. I know these witches do not know the magic of old, but they will soon learn it. My witches are potent and could not even break the spell of the magical wolves. We need more magical powers so that I will treat him to a feast tonight. I do not care what Iona and Daniela will have to say about this. They are not worried about the war because we are so used to winning every battle that they think this is just one of th
Iona's POV"What are all these witches doing here? Are you telling me that our witches, known for their old magic, cannot break the spell of the magical wolves by themselves? That is preposterous. Our witches are some of the strongest in the world. How can they not be strong enough? We are not that weak. You are just a weak leader and afraid of the magical wolves. Why don't you admit it? Or did you have something that you cannot handle? Is it a fact that you are not the original vampire? And did it upset you? I thought you were more substantial than that. I did not know that you had such a weak personality. Sometimes, I wonder why I still have you around. I might as well take a new husband!" I scream at Darius. "If you think you can do a better job than me, take over the army. We both will die. And at this moment, I don't even care. I'm tired of this life we are living, Iona. I am tired of you. Kill me if you want to. I do not give a damn. I am sick and tired of you telling me what t
Victor's POVIn the last few days, we have felt the witches trying to find a weak point in our shield, but even the witches of old Darius brought from Europe were not strong enough to see those weak points. However, I am not confident that he will not make a plan to break our shield. We have heard that all the dark witches in Salem have left the town. I bet Darius has something to do with that. I also think they are looking for Madison but will not find her, as she is not dark anymore. Madison has become a white witch. She is fighting on our side now, and we can count on her. Madison is even more potent than she was as a dark witch. We check out shields daily, but we can feel it in our powers whenever somebody tries to intervene. It is almost as mighty as our borderline.Morris requested to see me, but I told him that I would only see him in no man's land because, at the moment, we are at war, and we do not know who our friends are. He tried to pretend he was still our friend, but I k
Victor's POVWe can feel the witches' attacks from the evil side, which become stronger daily. We know exactly where they are trying to break through, so we are close to that place. Although we do not see them as they are hiding in the bushes and their scent from us, we can feel their magic. We are ready to attack as soon as they break the shield. Every day, we watched him try harder and harder. And every day, we see them becoming stronger and stronger. We can even feel our shield bend slightly. They have been going at this for about three days now. We know that the shield can break at any time. And then we have to be ready. The shield we have around the cave, where all our other people are saying, is much more potent, and it will take them many years to break it. Besides, the gypsies are with the people inside the cave. "I am so tempted to try my powers against theirs, but as soon as we do that, they will see that we are watching them and what they are trying to do. We have to catch
Bonita's POVWe have been camping here for three days, watching the witches trying to break through our barriers. We have been camping at the exact point they are trying to break through. Although we cannot see them because they are hiding themselves with their magic, we know exactly where they are. We can feel them using their magic. The vampires that come to visit them often, we can see the witch's magic is not strong enough to protect the vampires from being detected, and they try to break through the barriers while defending themselves. At the moment, they are concentrating everything they have on breaking through the shield. Today, we held the shield, almost breaking, and we knew they were close to breaking it. Some magical wolves and I are ready for when they break through. As we feel the shield brig, our warriors are on it. They break through the shield and start attacking the witches and vampires with it. In the meantime, my wolves and I prepare the shield again. We work fast
Darius' POV"Are we not going to attack? Are we not going to help our people that are dying out there?" My commander asks. "They are not our people. You know our people are much stronger than this. Morris and his wolf pack are out of our way. We are only here to protect our witches. The witches up front are mainly from Salem. Our strongest witches are at the back. What does it help us protect them? I want to see how strong these magical wolves are. They look mighty strong, and we must make another plan to attack. Our witches are tired. It's time for us to fall back. We have to find another way inside. They will attack and run back behind the shield, then the next group of warriors will attack us, and they will be fresh," I say.I'll look at my granddaughter and the witch she killed. That was one of our witches. She must be powerful enough to kill a powerful witch so quickly. I do have respect for her. She's looking straight at me. There is empathy in her eyes. Does she know I have to
Darius' POV"That did not take long. I hope that that pack of magic wolves does not exist anymore. I told you they are not that strong. Nobody can beat us as we are the strongest creatures in the world. We are vampires, and nobody is as fast as we are. I hope you brought me Gabby and Bonita," Iona says. I know she wants them alive because she wants to tear them apart. Iona thinks by tearing them apart, drinking their blood, eating their flesh, and torturing them, she can take their powers. "We did not beat them. They are much stronger than any of the enemies we have faced before. I have told you we cannot underestimate them. The wolf pack we took with us was destroyed, and some of our vampires and witches died. Our army is waiting outside. We will see how many are left. We still have a big army, but we must attack them at night, and we cannot take down their shield. We must think of another plan to get them outside their grounds to fight us here in the open. I was thinking of taking
Bonita's POVVictor and I sit on our seaside house's deck. We are watching the ocean and our grandchildren at the same time. Life has come full circle, although we don't look like round parents. We love our grandchildren. We have a lot of them. It feels like we are running a tiny school where they all visit us during the school holidays. All my children are happily married to their mates. Not all our children had six or more children, but over the last ten years, they had plenty of children who always wanted to come and visit Grandma and Grandpa. I think they want to come and visit us to play in the ocean.The cousins, brothers, and sisters together drive us crazy sometimes, but we love having them here. It is like we are rerunning a pack. We are still linked to our old pack, and our grandchildren got their wolves when they were born. Like their mothers and fathers, they can be impossible sometimes. I have what we enjoy in our lives here. We bought a big piece of land near the ocean.
Zander's POVI fear the Lycan King will not accept me as his daughter's mate. He has had bad experiences with having a magical wolf as a mate. Dean and Hannah's story did not end well. Helena and I have been seeing each other since Gabriella and Dean's ceremony. Both of us are afraid of how her father will react. We have been seeing each other in town. Sometimes, we will meet in a location where we know nobody can see us. I am waiting for her at a cafe. I know the Lycan King and my father are great friends. They have mutual respect. However, I do not see how they would feel when we tell them we are in love. Helena can choose her mat; she is a Lycan, and I am happy she felt the same about me as I thought. I have no choice. The wrong goddess picks my mate for me. I knew from the start Helena was my mate. I was glad when I told you not to choose my mate and that my wolf cannot live without her, and she told me she had fallen in love with me from the first moment she saw me. I see her wa
Dean's POVI know this will not be a long fight as we enter the ring. My brother is not prepared to fight me. He was never a warrior. He was always my mother's little boy, and my mother never wanted my father to train him. She always told my father that he was too sick to train, although my brother was never sick or weak. He was lazy. He was always a mama's boy who never wanted to do anything for himself. My mother would do everything for him, even his homework, when he got home from school and was too tired and sick to do homework. My mother always believed him, but I don't. I look at him as he is starting to dance around me. I know that he has no clue how to fight. I think of all his mates and how they must have felt when he took a new mate every time. I don't know if he has broken his previous bonds. However, he never had a child. I know I also do not have a child yet. However, it's not because I couldn't get any children. It is because my mate died, and I became a rogue. My mother
Dean's POVI am ready to fight my brother, Sean, but I know he is a coward and will not want to fight me alone. However, he has no choice now, as even the pack's warriors and elders have turned against him. Having Alpha Victor with me is also a plus. Alpha Victor and Luna Bonita are heroes among the magical wolves after they beat the vampires and drove most of them and the dark witches out of our area. I can see my brother is hesitant, but he has no choice. Sean goes to the packhouse to get ready. But I know he will also call his friends the Lycans.I don't need to prepare, as I am prepared to fight for my pack. I know they have gone through a lot, and I do not want them to go through anymore. The Lycans know very well that when I challenge Sean for the Alpha position of my pack, they are not allowed to intervene. I do not think they will intervene, and I do not believe they will help Sean. However, I do know that they will show up. I know the Lycan King hates me. He did not want me t
Dean's POVWe spent the night at Gabriella's parents' Pack and will return to our Pack in the morning. It will be tough to return to them as I do not know how the Dark Moon Pack feels about me. Perhaps they are still angry with me and do not want me to help them or become their Alpha again. It is a chance that I would take. I do believe that they don't want my brother as their Alpha anymore because I have been suffering under him for years. It is time to take on the Lycans. I do not understand why my Pack must pay for my sins. They did nothing wrong. Victor, Bonita, Gabriella, warriors, and I get ready to go to my Pack, and then we will see the Lycans. I do not know how my back will accept me, but I do hope they are glad to see me. Many of them did not want my brother to become the Alpha. However, the elders and the warriors were behind my brother, and now their daughters and sons are working for the lycans as servants. It is breaking my heart. I do not want to see my back like this.
Dean's POVI cannot believe that I have accepted Gabriella Black as my mate. I thought I would never take another mate. However, my heart and my wolf feel much better. I feel like a heavy burden has been lifted from me. I know I have to go back to my back, but first, I have to go and talk to Gabriella's parents. I cannot just take their daughter without telling them where we are going. The Dark Moon pack is on the other side of the National Park. The Lycans live near the city. I know they have been torturing my pack because of me. Hannah's father has not forgiven me. I cannot blame him. I know that he is angry with me for getting his daughter killed. I also know it's not only my fault if he had accepted us as a couple. None of this would have happened, and I would have lived happily with Hannah. I know he is not going to be impressed with me having a new mate. I do not care. We will fight our battles as they come. I have to go and save my pack. It's my fault that they are in the condi
Gabriella Jr.'s POVI ran after the man I did not know. I know he is my mate. I know he also knows it, but why is he running away from me? I don't understand what is happening here but must find him. I follow his scent. Although he's trying to hide it from me, my magical powers are so strong that I could still smell him. His magic is nothing against mine. I use my vampire speed, and I quickly catch up with him. He stops and looks at me with hostility in his eyes. "Go away. I do not want anything to do with you. Don't you get it? I do not want another mate. Hannah was the love of my life. Besides, I can not protect you if somebody wants to kill you. I am useless. Get away from me if you do not want to get hurt. I am cursed. I do not believe the moon goddess loves me. She must hate me. I have blood on my hands. I killed an innocent woman, and I killed the man who killed Hannah. I killed his wife to make him feel like I felt when I lost my mate. The only difference was he did not care l
Victor Jr's POVThe rogue falls to his knees after killing Liam Moore. I can't say that he is not that young anymore. I feel sorry for him. He hasn't lost his mate, and it is not easy for a werewolf to lose his mate. He must have gone through tough times. Losing your might to somebody is almost like when a human loses their wife. Except for a werewolf, it is much worse. We are like wolves in nature. We mate for life. Sometimes, the Moon Goddess is merciful and will give us a second chance. Some of us are not lucky, and we stay alone for our love. That is why some rogues give control to their wolves. Their human side is too weak, and they want to die with their mate. The wolf takes over, and he becomes a lone wolf. A lone wolf is a very dangerous wolf. He will kill for the pleasure of it. But this rogue seems that he was only of the revenge. And now that he has gotten his revenge, he has nothing left. "What is your name?" Ashley asks. "My human name is Dean Winters. My name is Ranger
Third person's POVLiam Moore is sure that the dogman, werewolf, or whatever creature killed his wife is after him. He is not coming back to these woods ever again. The creature already has his wife and daughter, and he cannot live like this in fear for his life all the time. He goes back to Salem and asks for a transfer to New York. He is sure that he will be much safer there and that the beast cannot follow him to New York. He saw his daughter's cell phone. Her last picture was very blurry, but it looked like a half-human and half-wolf creature. He's sure that she is dead. He closes the file and takes the evident box with him to New York. He does not want everybody to know that his daughter was killed by a beast that does not exist, according to most people. He feels ashamed of what he has done to his daughter. He feels guilty because he feels that he is later down and that he tortured her. He tortured her so badly that she ran into this beast in the woods. Liam is sure the beast wi
