Davies POV I indeed regretted saying that to this cute tigress!Her face became pale and she quivered at the last words from my mouth. I could swear she would have spread her wings and fly away if only she was a bird. Or she would have gladly killed me with her eyes, if she could."Hey, don't be scared, I was just joking. We don't eat anyone and we live like normal humans," I rushed out, trying to pacify the goddess before me.Why on earth would someone be so gullible? We are definitely not cannibals that eats human. If she was ever told that, it was because she always suspects them too much.She gave me a suspicious look. I wanted to take her hand but she moved away from me and I looked at her trying hard not to laugh.“ You don't expect me to eat my own child, do you?" I asked, raising my brow.There was a frown on her face and I was dying to tap into her mindlink to hear whatever she was harboring there. Unfortunately, we weren't bonded yet.“ Your-child?" She asked, her eyes sear
Davie's POV Was she a cannibal? “ Be a gentleman when you are with a lady," she said, smirking. I can't believe she bit my lips for making her feel good.“ Shouldn't you also be a lady and enjoy the kiss?" I asked, smiling faintly.I love how fierce she is, even if she cuts off my perfect kiss. Then I heard her asking again, about what I can do about the heat.I hesitated before I replied to her." Use magic.”She didn't say anything for a while and when I was sure she was going to object, she talked." Are you sure it would be safe?” She asked.There was a little uncertainty in her eyes. " Don't worry, you'll get used to me when we are fully mated,” I didn't dare to say those words aloud. She would have my neck, I was sure of it. I nodded before I started to chant a few words and soon water started to gather from nowhere before she could know what was happening, we had a large river in front of us. This I had wanted to do before but I didn't want to scare her. Stephanie stared
Stephanie's POVDavies was becoming more and more annoying. How could he say that to me? He just called me ugly, again!I felt like killing him. He was definitely going down with what he was saying. Does he regret being mated to me? I know he would have wanted a very beautiful Lycan woman to be his mate and not a werewolf who seemed powerless and homeless.But I was beautiful. I know I was a beauty to behold. I might not be powerful but beauty was one of my strong traits. Too bad I was being paired to blind bats as mates! With a smirk and a newfound determination, I planned to deal with the him. Although I was very shy, I pulled my clothes. Could you believe that fucking Davies dared to turn away? But before he turned around, I caught his face turning crimson red while his gaze was filled with lust.What an hypocrite!I got into the cold water and every part of me was grateful for the peace the water brought. Even if I didn't get anything and a very mean man had talked my body down
Stephanie POVI didn't expect him to answer me truthfully because he wasn't obliged to. Not even when I had gotten so mad and said mean words to him but he did."I went to check the fog. I need more details for me to be able to get rid of it," he replied.I felt guilty for thinking he disappeared because he was making fun of me."You should have told me," I said looking down at my hands that were inside the water. "Seeing you enjoying the water, I didn't want to disturb your swim. I thought you wouldn't notice that I was gone," he replied." Sorry I did," I said shyly.He chuckled at what I said. "We should get out of the water," he said and stood up showing me his abs.Wow! That was mouthwatering but I wouldn't dare look down so as not to run into deeper trouble, so I quickly closed my eyes.Davies chuckled softly. "Why are you acting like you've not seen a naked man before? At least, our baby is an evidence," he said in mockery.I wouldn't blame him for thinking that way but I did
Stephanie's POV "Mysterious?" He snorted. "Why do you think I'm mysterious?" The way he was looking at me showed that he was mocking me.I was glad that he didn't find my words offensive, rather he was amused by it. Just as I was about to talk, I saw Kilan coming towards us."Your friend is coming," I called Davie's attention." Yes I told him to bring us a drink since you won't allow me to use magic, " he said not even looking at Kilan's direction.I wondered when he called Kilan because he wasn't on the phone or anything. In fact, since I've met him, I've not seen them with any gadgets and in this century, gadgets are numerous. I had left mine at my small room because I didn't want anyone knowing where I was headed to."Here's it, sir," Kilan said when he got to us.He didn't even act as if he saw me there. Heron pointed to where he was going to place the drink and then Kilan left without hesitation.Till now I'm still wondering what was the relationship between those three. Since
Stephanie POV I bit my lips hard as my mind ran in different directions. If he was angry, would he hurt me? With my heart racing in different directions, I began to panicked until I heard the voice of my wolf."Is he taking us somewhere?" My wolf, Laila, asked curiously.I was just as curious as she was but I made sure to hide mine. "I don't read minds, Laila" I said as I stared at his hand that was right in front of me."He might want to-""Can you let me be, Laila? I'm still trying to figure this man out. Don't add to my trouble" I snapped at her.Laila can be a curious cat at times and it's always a pain in my ass. She had not once or twice made me run into trouble with her curiosity. " Come on, I am trying to help here," she said with a pout." Yeah… I can see that…" I responded with an eye roll before blocking her.After a second of silence from within, I hesitated for a while before I took Davie's hand. He held my hand and started to lead me along a path. At first, I had tho
Stephanie's POVOpening my eyes, only for me to see the most beautiful sight of my life. It was as if he teleported into the land of the fairies. Standing before me was a valley filled with flowers of different kinds and colours. The place was brightened up by its beauty and I stood in awe, staring amazingly at the beauty of nature. An exclamation escaped from my mouth and walked slowly into the beautiful garden, staring at the beauty of the place. The fragrance coming from those beautiful flowers was intoxicating me and building a tower of satisfaction around me. I haven't felt like this in ages. I was never opportune to be close to such a beautiful garden because they are mostly for the wealthy and seeing this, I had butterflies in my stomach. "Oh my goodness! Did we visit heaven?" Laila suddenly exclaimed."I think so," I replied to her as I walked slowly, touching all the flowers."I don't want to leave anymore," she said with emotion rushing through her. "Me too," I agreed.
Stephanie POV I looked at the direction the growls came from and my feet wobbled. Rogues!Davies held me tightly, preventing me from falling to the ground. They were snarling aggressively towards us.I looked at Davies and I saw that he stood there unbothered. I might be angry with him but I don't want him to get hurt. These rogues were troublesome and mostly moved around in huge numbers. "We need to leave," I said to him."We are going nowhere. I'm not afraid of them," he said calmly. Davies definitely trusted his magic more but he would be doing more harm to himself if he uses his magic all the time. He would be the target of a lot of people and he might end up dying."Don't put too much confidence in your magic. I'm sure there are people better at it than you, " I said to him.By the time I was done talking the rogues were already closer to us and I saw that they were almost twenty. If they are hungry rogues, they might want to feed on us. Rogue are the heartless part of the w
Stephanie's POV Stunned, I couldn't help but keep staring into space for as long as I could remember. I could hear Davies clearly. It was as if we were having a face to face conversation. Warmed with this discovery, my eyes watered. “Davies, are you there?" I asked when he didn't speak after a while.“Uhm." He sounded like a dying man which made me start panicking as I wondered what the issue was. Leaning forward, I murmured, “Tell me, are you alright?" My heart was beating rapidly against my chest making it seem like it was going to burst in any second. “The seekers. I have been at their mercy for almost a month now." Alarmed, I gulped. Holding my breath, I listened attentively to his tale about the seekers' torment and this made tears welled up in my eyes. If only I was there with him, this wouldn't have happened. — I couldn't help but to blame myself for his current situation.
Davies’s POVThere he is.For the rest of my life, I can never forget the face of the father who was behind the death of my mother even though I was diagnosed with amnesia. His face haunted me each time I remembered it.“You…” I yelled, trying to get off the constraints that were holding me back but it was to no avail. Thrashing about didn't help either and making me even more enraged, he was smirking. "Long time no see Davies.” He mouthed, walking further in my direction, the smirk on his face still stamped on it. "How dare you show your face here after what you have done?” I yelled at him. "I will never forgive you even if you ask all the elements to beg on your behalf.” I yelled again. The sickening aura in the room made me recoil but my gaze was still fixated on the man I had sworn not to forget in my life. He should be dead considering what had happened that day.Why in heaven's name
Davies's POV The Seekers continued to torment me non stop. When it seemed they weren't going to get what they wanted, the seekers left me alone but I was still confined in their experiment room. Patiently, I wanted for them to release me from the felters they had used to bind me but it seemed that wasn't going to happen. Day in, day out, I remained tied to the chair.I was still awaiting my fate when the door flung open and the old seeker walked in, followed by two youngsters flanked on both sides. “You didn't get what you wanted, let me go." I said, locking eyes with him. “We are taking you to the dungeon." He announced and immediately, the two young seekers made their way towards me. Thrashing about, I yelled at them, preventing them from coming any closer. With my eyes almost popping from their sockets, I yelled, “Let me go." Amused with my distress cries, the seekers began to laugh, making
Davies's POV For the past months, I haven't crossed paths with the seekers and it had been a relief considering the heartbreak I was dealing with. Mourning the loss of Stephanie and trying to avoid the seekers that were after my life was definitely going to make me go insane. Looking over the lush expanse of vegetation right under my window, I tried to stop my mind from racing with different thoughts but I had no control over it.Ever since Stephanie left, I haven't remained the same. Her absence left a void in my heart, making me wonder where I had gone wrong that would make her leave without telling me about it. She didn't even give me the chance to express my feelings to her before she left for Alpha Gregory. Resting against the wall, I couldn't help but reminisce about the times we shared together, and it made my heart ache. If only I could rewind the hands of the clock, I would be the happiest being
Alpha Gregory's POV The incessant itching and scratching, I noticed it all but I said nothing to her about it. I wanted her to tell me but she kept it to herself so I felt it wasn't bad as I thought. At the dining table, I kept casting her side glances. The look on her face showed she was in pain but still, she kept it to herself.Suddenly, she began to twitch and turn.Seeing it had escalated, I had no choice but to call out to the physician for help but he was taking too long and Stephanie was crying.“He will be here soon." I said, trying to relieve her of the pain she felt but it was of no use. Hurrying towards the door, I wanted to go fetch the physician myself but I couldn't leave Stephanie on her own; hence I was conflicted. Rushing to her side, I wanted to help ease the pain she felt when she suddenly went limp and the next second, she was falling off her chair.“My lord…” The physician announced his presence, standing behind the door. "What took you so long?” I yelled
Stephanie's POV Standing behind the cot of my children, my heart fluttered as a permanent smile remained on my lips. They were so adorable and I wouldn't mind spending the whole day watching my little darlings I had vowed to nurture into great men. “My lady, it's time to have your bath so we can proceed for breakfast." Sarah spoke from the door. When I didn't give her a response, she closed the distance between us and with her hand resting tenderly on mine, she asked, “Are you skipping breakfast today?" Nodding at the twins, she added, “They are hard suckers, you need to eat a lot to withstand them." Swirling to face her, I mouthed, “Aren't they beautiful?" “Yes, they are. They are both adorable." “Who do you think will take after me?"She was about to answer when the door creaked open and Alpha Gregory walked in. “Excuse me." She took her leave, leaving me with Gregory who was already beside me and the kids.“I will look after them, go and have a bath." He tried to steer me
Stephanie's POVThe sound of hurried footsteps made my eyes flicker open and at once I sat up.Recalling what happened before darkness took over, I was staring into space but the noise from outside took over my reasoning. Davies? I had seen Davies at the borders before I passed out. Was I back at his pack? What is he going to do with me?Throwing my feet off the bed, I scurried towards the door, my heart pounding in my chest as dread settled over me. Something was wrong and I wonder what it was. Realizing I was still in Alpha Gregory's pack, I exhaled in relief.The pack members, have they finally reached the decision of throwing me out? — I pondered but I waved the thought off almost immediately. The sound beyond the door was more like that of a battle cry. “There are rouges at the borders. They are going to infiltrate the pack." The moment I heard this, I yanked the door open, allowing my eyes to roam through the hallway which was in chaos. “Ava, she is not dead. She is at
Gregory’s POVI was shocked to see Ava at the borders instead of the rogues like I was informed. She didn't come for negotiations, she was here for revenge and to make that happen, she came with a sorcerer who cast spells on my armies before doing the same to me. Fighting against the sorcerer's magic was like I was fighting against a demon which was triple my size. His magic was like I was being whipped with fire that scotched my skin and left a burning sensation in my veins. The sorcerer continued tormenting me, giving me no time to breathe as the pain came hitting me in bolts. Gritting my teeth amidst the pain, I struggled to remain on my feet. My armies were frozen, I couldn't afford to fall when the whole life of my pack depended on me. And then, there was Stephanie and our child whom I had vowed to protect.With this in mind, I continued fighting against the magic but I was losing strength.
Ava's POVSatisfied with the manipulations of the pack members, I decided to move to my next plan and that was confronting Alpha Gregory. I wasn't going to do it alone, I was going to do it with the aid of a powerful sorcerer as it wasn't going to be easy if I handled it myself. Standing at the borders next to the sorcerer, I placed my hand on my dagger which was strapped firmly around my waist. With the alarm of rogues at the borders, Alpha Gregory was going to leave whatever he was doing and find his way here. Several times I have heard him talk about the safety of his pack being one of his priorities and not only that, he had demonstrated countlessly. Today was not going to be any different. The aura from the sorcerer next to me gave me so much confidence. He was tagged the best and that's why I chose to form an alliance with him knowing I wasn't going to regret my actions.The air was thick with the sc
