Thanks for reading <3
[Xanthea]I still remember the day when I got my first heat. I was sixteen back then, and I knew the biology behind the heats of a female werewolf from my mother’s diaries and experiences she noted in them. All anatomically female werewolves went into heat once a month. Everyone mostly experienced
I turned back to see if I had lost them, but I could still see their eyes hover in the darkness as they got closer to me until they stopped.“What the hell is happening here?”I turned around to face Nikolai.“Prince, we were just telling the princess to not come into this part of the palace. Luna M
“What a headache this girl is!”She would have usually called maids to get rid of me, but that day she took me back to my room and stayed there for an hour.“It’s all your fault, so stop with your drama. My Niko is a boy. What does he know? You were in heat. You should have been more careful. Don’t
[Asher]Why did I bring you here, Xanthea?Out of all the beautiful places I could have taken you, why did I bring you into this darkness?Is it because no one in all the three realms knows of this place—not my family, not even Raven and Ezra?Or is it because I wanted you to know this place? But wh
‘Fucking stop it! You are hurting her!’ She went through a little pain and Icifer turned feral.I kept peering at her, replying to all of Icifer’s restlessness with my silence as I observed Xanthea closely.“This is not real…” she mumbled to herself, tears streaming down her face. “It can’t be real.
“It feels like you are everywhere in this darkness,” she said. “Senses don’t seem to work normally here. From your voice, it seems as though you are standing at some distance but…”She turned around in her place. Her eyes hovering in the air around me. She couldn’t see it, but she was standing face
[Asher]“Mad at you?” she chuckled; her voice dripped with bitter sarcasm. “I am sorry, alpha, but I don’t remember ever having the luxury of being mad at you. And for what? For bringing me into this delightful, traumatizing dark room where illusion blurs into reality with sheer madness?”Xanthea li
“Love?” she winced.“Yes. Love…” I reiterated in a soft whisper. “How does it feel to be in love, Xanthea?”Taking a tight gulp, she stepped away from me.“Stop playing with me, Asher. I am not a toy…” her voice quivered.“I am not playing with you. I am honestly curious,” I said, stepping closer to
But Asher—Every inch of him was covered in them. Dense. Spreading. There wasn’t an inch of his body that hadn’t been wounded critically.How is this even possible?What the hell has he been through to end up like this?No… who did this to him?For a second, I thought it was the holy rain. Or maybe
“What’s there to understand about a grown-ass man who can’t even control his emotions? He looks like he’s a high rank celestial. Still, he lacks basic manners, etiquettes, even the rationality to fathom the consequences of his actions? He attacked the Alpha of the Infernal Pack. Do you think the Pri
[Xanthea]A sharp pulse of pain zapped through my head, every nerve and blood vessel screaming in agony. My muscles spasmed, my bones felt as if they were melting as the life force was yanked from my body and poured into my tongue — fueling the spell with raw energy.My vision blurred for a moment,
Mother had performed the spells and drawn the magic circles and symbols so many times that they became an instinct ingrained in her. And that instinct was passed down to me.I bit the tip of my finger. Ignoring Asher’s protests, I drew the recovery symbol, a symbol that accelerated healing, on his c
But I stayed calm, drawing in a deep breath while all my mother’s knowledge, experience and abilities manifested in their full force within me.I had naturally inherited 5% of my mother’s basic healer skills, which included things like instant diagnostic sight, blood analysis and manipulation, mana
[Xanthea]Blood streamed down my broken hand, merging with the holy rain as it dripped from my fingertips, pooling around my bare feet as I stood against Yandor, the masked celestial prince, and Nikolai.The celestial prince panted, his bated breaths cautious as he stared at me, a glowing white swor
‘Damage level?’ Icifer asked.‘Low,’ I said.Icifer allowed the mouse prince to pass through, who was shortly followed by Nikolai, who tried to sneak behind him, thinking it would be safe to get near my shadows now that two high rank celestials had entered.But only the two made it through.The mort
The relentless frequency of those attempts reflected his desperation. And the fact that he was here today himself could only mean one thing — he was here to rescue his granddaughter from demon lords, by any means necessary.I had a feeling he’d risk war for it if necessary, but no one understood the
[Asher]Crepuscular rays of the sun split through the sky like blades of light as dawn bled across the horizon.A pillar of light, streaked with golden scintillation, crashed down from the heavens near the mouse prince — bridging the Celestial realm to the Earthly realm. And one by one, higher celes
