Alpha Gerald paced back and forth in the dimly lit chamber, his frustration mounting with every step. His meticulously planned ritual to unlock the ancient secrets contained within the Moon Book Chronicles of power had been disrupted, and the source of his frustration was none other than the absence of his prisoner, Emily.

The room, adorned with ancient symbols and flickering candles, resonated with an air of malevolence as Gerald's mind raced to comprehend what had transpired. He had carefully selected Emily, a young woman with unique blood properties, as the key to open the Moon Book. Her lineage held a long-lost connection to the mystical energies required for the ritual. Alpha Gerald had spared no expense or effort in securing her captivity, but now she had vanished without a trace.

As his mind grappled with the situation, Gerald's gaze fixated on the guards he had assigned to watch over Emily. They stood in a line, their expressions a mix of fear and confusion. He ha

    EMILY'S POV I was met with the beautiful sunset as soon as I opened my eyes. I had taken a nap because I was tired from all the preparations. It was my birthday and I was going to be 18 and the party was going to begin soon. Springing up from my bed, I dashed into my bathroom to take a relaxing bath. I have been anticipating my 18th birthday for so long. Turning 18 meant finding my mate and I was tired of being mateless. "Hmmm…" I moaned in delight as soon as I was done taking my bath. I dashed from my bathroom into my closet and swiftly, I threw on the already made dress for tonight's event. "Yes! I hope I meet my mate tonight." I said to myself, as I admired myself in the mirror. Though the mating convention was in a few days, I couldn't wait to meet my mate. Putting on a little make up, I straightened up and I was ready. My chin was held up high and the happiness in my eyes was obvious. In a few seconds, I was already out of my room. I walked down the hallway leading

    EMILY'S POV I woke up with a start as the rays of the sun hit me. Squinting my eyes, I realized that I had been at the same spot where I passed out. I realized that I had slept through the dangerous hours of the night outside and all alone. Everything that had happened the day before flashed in my eyes. I was still dressed in my bloodied dress and the blood of my parents was all over. "Mum…dad…" I called out, not caring that I was sitting on the bare floor. The bodies of my parents had been evacuated and I started to panic. I did not get to spend my parents' last moments with them. When I thought I had enough pain, I remembered the rejection from my mate. "Eric." I said, in a low tone as I clutched the fabric around my chest. My eyes were hazy and it felt like I had lost connection with my wolf and the world. I just wanted to die but I couldn't do that without seeing my parents again. Immediately, I stood up to my feet and swayed a little. But then I blinked my eyes an

    EMILY'S POV My eyes opened up and I was met with the beautiful night sky. How I wished my life was beautiful like the sky. My body felt heavy and weak as I clawed at the ground. My fingers and lips were cracked and I wished I could vanish in the next moment. But then reality was staring me right in the face and I couldn't run. The pain in my heart continued to increase as the sky served as the big screen, showing me what my life had turned into. "Haha…" I let out a mocking chuckle, as I struggled to stand up to my feet. My legs wobbled and I had to steady myself not to fall. I stunk of blood and grime and I just wanted to take off my dress. My dress would forever remind me of my sorrows and my birthday had turned into a cursed day. With my hands clenched into fists, I started to wobble my way back to the Beta mansion. And then I realized I was bare footed. Suddenly a voice floated into my ears, "Look at that thief. You shouldn't be like her." The voice said, and it was

    Lightning flashed across the freezing sky, brightening the room out of its darkness for only a single moment. The rain pounded on, jolting the windows that thudded against each drop. The room was simple, a small wooden bookshelf filled to the brim was near the door, the walls were a navy color while the door was pitch black. It seemed like a hotel room. Whoever brought her here obviously didn’t want her to know where he stays or was also on the run from things she would rather not bother herself with. It was almost square, perhaps a little longer than it was wide, with only one window that filled almost the entire far wall. So far, completely blank and empty, it was expectant, almost curious, and Emily, lying timidly in the bed, staring at the ceiling. EMILY’s POV: I woke up in a bed that didn’t feel like mine. The sheets were a different color and they were made with a different fabric than mine. They had better quality, too. Even the pillows felt so soft. I had one un

  • My second chanced mate    The sign

    “Sire! Sire!”, a servant barged into their dining room at lunch, sweating profusely as he fell face down at his father’s feet. He didn’t look like any of their own, and recognizing him was difficult as he laid facing the ground. Coming into the presence of the alpha uninvited was a great crime. And no one else dared to ask you to rise but the alpha himself. On most days, he did, and on the others, well, you just had to lay there until he decides what to make of you. Often times, defaulters were punished. And the punishment meant cutting off one of their fingers. With this in mind, whoever decided to barge in on the alpha was either of two things: either brave or stupid. And this servant really did look stupid laying there that way. His only luck was the regalia he wore. He belonged to The Watsons. The alpha knew today was their daughter’s eighteenth birthday, and he’d received a letter of invitation. He’d been at a few of her birthdays, but this one was important. It was her

    A few weeks had passed since Emily gave birth to her baby, a beautiful little girl with a tuft of dark hair and piercing blue eyes. Despite the hardships she had faced, Emily couldn't help but feel an overwhelming sense of joy and love whenever she looked at her daughter. Living in the vampire community had its challenges, but Emily found solace in the protection it provided her and her child. She had managed to keep her pregnancy a secret, afraid that the werewolf pack would discover her whereabouts and try to take her baby away. Being among vampires offered a certain level of safety, but Emily knew she couldn't let her guard down entirely. As her daughter grew, Emily began to explore her new surroundings more extensively. She mingled with the vampire community, learning their customs, their history, and their political structure. It was during one of these interactions that she stumbled upon a shocking revelation: the vampire queen, Sofia, was her mother's sister. Th

    The venomous poison coursed through Katherine's veins, its effects swift and merciless. As Tyler watched in horror, unable to save her, Sofia reveled in her triumph. The vampire queen's eyes gleamed with sadistic pleasure as she witnessed Katherine's agony. "I told you, Tyler," Sofia taunted, her voice dripping with venom. "Your refusal has consequences. Now, watch as your precious bodyguard pays the price for your defiance." Katherine gasped for breath, clutching at her throat, her face contorted in pain. The poison robbed her of strength, rendering her helpless against the lethal venom coursing through her body. Tyler's heart shattered as he witnessed the woman he admired suffering before his eyes. Desperation fueled Tyler's decision, and in that moment of anguish and grief, he made a choice he never thought he would. With tears streaming down his face, he turned to Sofia, his voice laden with despair. "Fine," he choked out, his voice cracking. "I'll accept your

    As Tyler fought to free his bodyguard, Katherine, from the chains, Sofia, the vampire queen, watched with a mix of amusement and satisfaction. The dim light in the chamber cast eerie shadows on her face, accentuating her sinister beauty. She had planned this moment meticulously, knowing that separating Tyler from his trusted protector would weaken his resolve and make him more susceptible to her influence. Sofia approached Katherine, her steps graceful and predatory. A sly smile played on her lips as she extended a hand, offering assistance. "My dear Tyler, why do you struggle so? Accept your fate, and I promise to release Katherine unharmed. Join me in this world of eternal darkness, where power and pleasure await." Tyler's eyes blazed with fury as he glared at Sofia. "I will never surrender to you. Katherine has sworn to protect me, and I won't let you use her against me." Sofia chuckled softly, her voice laced with a hint of malice.

    In the dimly lit caves, Tyler, the Lycan king, fought alongside his loyal companions, his senses heightened in the face of imminent danger. The air was thick with tension as they ventured deeper into the unknown, their objective clear: to rescue Katherine, Tyler's personal guard, from the clutches of the vampire queen, Sofia. Their path was treacherous, littered with jagged rocks and hidden crevices. Sinister whispers echoed through the cavernous walls, adding an eerie ambiance to the already chaotic atmosphere. The group cautiously advanced, their weapons at the ready, their instincts honed for any sign of aggression. As they pressed on, the silence was abruptly shattered by a cacophony of screeches and growls. From the shadows emerged grotesque creatures, their twisted forms a nightmarish sight to behold. The creatures had gnarled limbs and razor-sharp claws, their eyes burning with an insatiable hunger. With a primal roar, Tyler lunged forward, his body shifting sea

    An uneasiness settled over Tyler, Gerald, Victoria, and Eric as they stood in the dimly lit chamber, their eyes locked on the ominous figure of the vampire queen, Sofia. She had trapped them in her lair, her grip tightening around Katherine, whose life hung in the balance. Sofia had made her intentions clear: she desired Tyler as her mate, and she would stop at nothing to make it happen. As tension filled the air, the flickering torches cast eerie shadows on the chamber walls. A sudden movement caught Tyler's attention, and his heart skipped a beat. He squinted his eyes, trying to discern the source of the disturbance. The uneasiness escalated as the others too sensed the encroaching danger. Whispering a warning, Victoria pointed to the corner of the chamber, where the darkness seemed to grow denser. Gerald's instincts kicked in, and he unsheathed his blade, ready to defend his friends.
