last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Nora POV

I didn't have enough time to think or scold Karen because his attacks were coming in succession. Why was Harriet not helping me out?

“If you don't want to be beaten into a pulp, then focus!" I heard Karen's mindlink.

“ What the hell is going on?" I asked, trying to defend his attacks after another.

Fortunately for me, my brother Justin, had taught me how to defend myself. That was the only reason I could defend myself in such an unpredictable situation.

After a few more attacks, Karen suddenly stopped. I was about to dodge a punch sideways but my eyes caught his abrupt stop to the brawl and I almost fell to the ground.

His hands grabbed mine, drawing close to himself. His scent wafted through my nostril and I felt the allure of it, drawing me closer to him.

“ You are not bad at combat-" he slurred, staring at me with a smirk. A smile broke out on my face but his next words crushed the living daylight out of my happiness.

“ -For a human, that is," he concluded, a faint smile

    Nora Pov " My Princess, why are you still sleeping by this time? The training is almost over! Did you change your mind?” That was the voice of my maid, Harriet. Still feeling groggy from the sleep, I muttered incoherently to her." Training starts at seven, it's just three in the morning!" "Ugh? It's- it's past eight in the morning, your highness," Harriet responded, her voice giving me a headache. "Harriet, training starts by seven…what the hell!" My brain did a marathon race as I regained myself. I looked terrified at the ray of light seeping into the room. "Oh shit! Why the hell did I sleep again! Now I am so damn late!" I scurried out of the bed like a thunderbolt. This was definitely not what I planned! Today was my first day at training and I was hell-bent on making an impressive impression on everyone including that grumpy Karen. I was so excited that I decided to wake up early so I could freshen up and get ready before the training time. Instead of getting t

    Nora POV I watched George and my stepmom walking toward me, their faces filled with mockery. It was obvious they saw how I embarrassed myself just now. “ Is she supposed to be my sister?” George asked, scowling. His disdain toward me was as glaring as the morning sun. I wonder how I had offended him. "How can a Lycan be so weak? I am sure she is truly an imposter!" My stepmom stated, throwing me a condescending gaze. I was stuck on what to say. I couldn't defend myself because it was truly shameful that I couldn't even hold myself against a mere growl. I stole a glance at Karen who still had a grim expression on his face. He must be feeling ashamed of being a teacher to a weakling. “ It's a pity the queen placed her hope on you," my stepmom calmly threw her words at me. I felt myself burning with anger yet I held myself back. My mind drifted to my discussion with the queen last night. It was as if she knew what I was likely to face today. “ You want to start training tomor

    Nora POV I ran through the bright light, feeling bloodthirsty. My fangs protruded as my eyes turned darker in shade. I heard voices calling out my name faintly. I looked back but saw nothing. Turning to my heels, I ran in the opposite direction to where the bright light was coming from. I could hear the noises growing louder, until I smelled the air. It was filled with bloodlust. I stumbled on something soft yet hard and as I looked down, my body turned cold instantly. Spread around the wide ground were dead bodies sprawled all over the place. I took two steps backwards, unable to believe the bloodbath before me. It was gruesome as heads rolled on the ground whilst different limbs were torn, falling to different places. I heard heavy footsteps behind me and when I turned around, I saw a mysterious Lycan standing tall in the midst of others. The eyes looked oddly familiar yet filled with hatred. He raised two heads up, a smirk playing deeply on his face as his voice echoe

I should be your space!” Her retorts filled with defiance even as she tried to stop herself from tearing up even more.With a scowl, I turned around to leave but she grabbed my hand, stopping my movement.“ You accepted me as your chosen mate-"I snorted at her words. Did she forget so quickly? This was all a deal.“ We made a deal, Aria. You wanted the title of a Luna and I wanted a woman as my mate. I clearly told you not to expect more from me!" " Why can't you accept me? Is it because of her? That weak-”Like a flash, I couldn't control my anger as I held her by the throat before throwing her on the bed. I could hear her successive gasps and as I turned to look at her, her eyes held nothing but defiance." I told you never to mention her!” I barked, walking close to her." It's-it’s been six months, Carlos. She is

    NORA POVDetermination seeped through my veins as I made up my mind to beat the record I had been getting for the past one week. Although other trainers said it was impossible, only if I had my wolf. They said it would have been possible considering my speed.The only Lycan that had gotten less than 0.5 seconds was the first Ancient Blood. Beating that speed will require my wolf. After giving Karen a faint smile, I shut my eyes tightly, envisioning the target without losing focus. I don't know if I could make the 0.5 second speed but at least I could aim faster.As I breezed through the bushes, tearing whatever was on my way apart. I sustained bruises yet I felt nothing as I ran at full speed. I know Elder Silvarum was already waiting for me there for the calculation. With the whistling of the morning breeze streaming past my ears, I continue to run as fast as I could. In a blink of an eye, I was already standing before the old man as I catch my breath.“ It's outstanding but you st

    CARLOS POVI cursed as I changed into my wolf form, filled with anger at what I just heard. How could such a thing happen and none of the elders had a whiff of it.I got to the conference room in less than five minutes and changed back into my human form. My eyes scout through all the elders who had a grim yet fearful expressions. “ How could this have slipped your reports?" My voice boomed across the throne room.My hands tapped rapidly on my throne, watching the Elders whose heads were bowed shivering slightly. I waited for their excuses once again, yet none spoke a word.“ No answer? I guess I should find out my way," I smirked, my aura changing drastically.I stood up abruptly, making them whimper a few steps back. They should have known for the past six months I had been on the throne that I was nothing like my father.Don't get me wrong.My father was one of the most decisive Alpha in all werewolves territories. Brutal yet merciful, so much that most of our territories were now

    Carlos POVI woke up with a start, sweat dripping all over my body. It felt so real and I could have sworn it was Nora. How could she have a wolf when she was just human?I felt a familiar pain tugging at my heart as her face flashed before me. I got up swiftly, making my way to the bathroom. Maybe a cold bath would straighten me out.As I walked past the reading desk, I paused. Instead, I made my way to the desk. I saw an enclosed box. It was the box holding the shard of emerald pendant.I took out the shard, examining it once more for any inscription. Indeed, there was an inscription but it was partly torn. I removed the one on my neck and noticed inscriptions on it too.I sighed, a strong migraine kicking in. Why can't I get the feeling that something wasn't right out of my head?“ I need to find out the truth."With that I sent a mindlink to my gamma, Kayden. He was also my best friend, just like Justin and I trust him. “ Get me an expert on inscriptions and wordings”" Yes, Alph

    NORA POVI leap high, my feet bare and my heart racing. That damn old man would be the end of me. Why was he so strict? I wish I could be trained by Nora only.“ If you are a second behind, you will be punished, brat." Elder Silvarum’s voice came through the mindlink. I could have yelled a fuck you at him but then I wasn't ready to train all day. That's how wicked Elder Silvarum was to me. Did he even see me as the Lycan princess?Maybe he forgets that I was still not with my wolf. With a sigh, I continued the race without the surge of power and speed that comes with having a wolf. It's just me, my human form, and the burning need to become powerful. I could feel the forest getting blurred around me, trees becoming green and brown smudges as I ran the distance. My legs had began to ache and I could swear that my lungs were going to be on fire, thanks to that old man!I pushed on, fueled by determination.I wanted to meet up with his timer, so I ran with all my strength.

Carlos' sudden appearance had made all my plans go to naught as I strongly believed that he hadn't acted on his own. He must have solicited help from Nora's kingdom and so I had to be extra careful while dealing with them. On arrival, I handed Nora to the physicians. I stood before King Salvador and Queen Dione, and the elders of the kingdom. I could see the concern etched on their faces as I recounted my tale."I am afraid Carlos had already poisoned Nora by the time I reached her," I said, my voice laced with feigned regret. "I managed to rescue her, but I had to escape quickly, as my army was vastly outnumbered."Queen Dione's eyes welled up with tears. "Oh, Karen, you're a hero! We can't thank you enough for saving our daughter."

It seemed like a lead was tied to his tongue, stopping him from lifting it. Frustration simmered within Justin during the ride to the Blue Lycans pack.

With the description Vina had given to them, it seemed easy but since they embarked on the search for the location, they haven't been able to reach their destination. Exhausted, the men gathered under a large tree to catch their breath while Justin and the members of the Blue Lycan Kingdom who had offered to help them went over the directives again. Drumming his foot against the floor, Justin had a look of worry on his face. He believed that Karen had caught Carlos and now he was in grave danger. “Calm down.” It was Elder Callum who had accompanied them that spoke. He too was trying to trace Nora’s scent but it was to no avail. “I can't reach him through the mind link.” Justin replied, still hitting his foot against the floor with his hands crossed on his chest. His distress got to the point that he began to pace about, all in a bid to clear his

    The last thing Vina expected was a bloodied Carlos, looking half-dead and lying at the entrance of the room where Nora was kept hostage.“ Carlos!" She screamed but quickly placed her hand over her mouth, not wanting to attract the guards.With her eyes almost falling off its socket and her heart beating heavily against her chest, she swallowed hard as if that would stop her wobbling legs. Not even the fear of the guards could topple the scary scene before her.Vina stepped backwards, her palm over her mouth. “What am I going to do now? Nora-!” she questioned no one as her eyes darted around the place.Vina's heart racing, she rushed towards Carlos, her eyes fixed on his pale and battered face. She couldn't believe the state he was in - bruised, bleeding, and seemingly lifeless.

After her encounter with Karen where he had dealt mercilessly with her, he had ordered his men to throw her into one of the rooms so she would die a slow and painful death. “Ugh! I'm not dead yet.” She muttered, finally snapping her eyes open as she pulled herself to a sitting position. It took a while before she could adjust to her environment, and when she tried to stand up in a bid to escape, she fell back on her behind with a little sigh. Wiping the blood that was on the side of her lips, she sucked her teeth, letting out a little grunt at the same time. If she was told before now that her collaboration with Karen was going to cause a lot of damage, she wouldn't have dared.Vina's eyes clouded over as she reminisced about the horrific event. She had thought that being Karen's mate would afford her some level of protection and care, but the memory of that fateful day still haunt

    Carlos' POV Standing in front of me was no other person than Karen, a smirk dancing on his lips. He wore an official coronation attire. A thick, black fur glistening in the light, perfectly groomed and sleek. His piercing yellow eyes seemed to burn with an inner fire, radiating confidence and authority. Pulling myself up, I tried to square off with him only for me to fall face first to the floor and the next thing that happened was a loud laughter that rang all over the hallway. “I knew you were up to no good so I decided to lurk around.” Smacking his lips with a shrug, he added, “Too bad you are yet to understand that I’m always one step ahead of you each time.” He hissed. “Why are you doing this? If you really love her like you claimed, you wouldn't hurt her this way.” I yelled, grasping the wall for support. Clicking his tongue, I was itching to hear what he had to say to me but he didn't speak. “You know…” Rub

The moment I saw Nora, the urge to save her hit me with so much force but somehow, I was able to hold back. Karen's eyes suddenly fixed on me with a smirk carefully plastered on it. That's when I realized that he must have known it was me.I glared at Karen, my eyes blazing with fury as he approached me with his men. He looked smug, too confident, and I knew I had to warn him."Game's over, Carlos," he growled, his voice low and menacing. "You're going down."I let out a scowl, my eyes gleaming with anger. "Oh, I don't think so, Karen," I responded, my voice dripping with condescension.With a sudden movement, he kicked me brutally, sending me crashing to the ground. I grunted in pain as he dragged Nora away from me, his men closing in to surround me.But I refused to back down. "Nora's see

Clenching and unclenching my fists, I tried to grapple with the fact that Elder Callum had gotten involved in something I had managed to keep away from him. I growled in frustration, my mind racing with anger. "What do you mean they're coming back? How did they defeat the rogues so quickly?""The blue Lycans are a formidable force, Karen," he replied, his voice laced with a hint of fear. "Uncle Callum is a skilled leader, and they have many powerful warriors among them."I snarled, my anger rising. "This can't be happening. Not now, when I'm so close to achieving my goal."He hesitated, sensing my agitation. "Karen, maybe we should—""No," I cut him off, my voice cold and calculating. "We can't let them interfere. Uncle Callum would never allow me to continue my plans for Nora if he finds out. And as for Nora's wolf...I can't let them bring out her true identity. It would ruin everything."I paced b

For years, I had managed to hold back the spite I had towards her while feigning to be an ally but now, it was all over. Time was no longer on my side and I can’t afford to delay anymore. I had to end everything as soon as possible so I wouldn't have anything to be bothered with again. It was my coronation day and just like I had said to Nora, it was going to be a bloodbath of the pack. I had planned this beforehand and I doubt there was going to be any flaw in it.

And then when King Salvador made the declaration, I had to invite them to the pack to carry the plan. Smacking my lips, I pushed my head backwards, not minding the gaze Nora was sending my way.
