what am I going to do now?' Ariel thought to herself silently as she fixed her gaze on Lucas face."Lucas are you there?" Athonio called through the mind link and Lucas remain silent. " Lucas " Athonio called again." I'm not pranking you this time around. The Alpha of the moonlight pack is here" Athonio said ." Tell him I'm not available" Lucas replied through the mind link and shut Athonio off by breaking the mind link." I understand that you want to spend time with Ariel but why don't you listen to what he have to say first" Artemis suggested" Keep quiet" Lucas shut him up. He felt like some pairs of eyes were looking at him and he opened his eyes to meet Ariel emerald eyes staring at him with her face few inches away." Is my face cute?" Lucas teased and Ariel turned to look away feeling embarrassed." You're a proud beauty" Ariel sneered and walked back to the bedside." Lucas the alpha caught the rogue and he wants to have a word with you" Athonio voice came again through th
Clarissa opened her eyes slowly and found herself in her human form." What just happened?" She mumbled as she rose up to her feet.She looked around and noticed that she's few metres away from where her truck is. " Ariel" She called as she looked around to see if she would find her around ." But we were both knocked away. Could it be those strange beings in the wood took her away?" Clarissa asked herself and at the thought of that, she felt chills all over her body.She run towards where the truck is and drove away with her heart in her throat. Even as a hunter and a warrior, she is still afraid of those unseen strange beings in the wood.-back at the pack-" Did you find her?" Lucas asked Athonio after searching for Ariel for what seems like eternity." No Lucas" Athonio replied through the mind link and Lucas heart dropped.He returns to his quarter hoping to see Ariel standing by the window waiting for him but he was dissappointed and welcomed by an empty room.His heart felt em
Clarissa sat on her bed as the previous scene of what happened in the woods replayed in her memory. She still have goosebumps all over her body and the chill is still there. She rubbed a pain relief balm over her body and lay down on her bed. " Shouldn't I be happy that she's out of the way now?" She asked herself with a sigh escaping her lips. " I have always wanted to get rid of her and this calls for celebration" She squealed and jumped down from the bed. " I can finally have Lucas to myself" she grinned and ran towards the pack bar even when her body still ache from the fall. ****** " Ethan Luthedo " Lucas typed the name on his phone and the profile of Ethan emerged. " Bastard" Lucas cursed and stepped on the gas pedal. " I will rip your throat apart" Lucas kept cursing as he speed through Z town. The car came to a halt in a three bedroom apartment. One could tell that the owner of the house is a millionaire but choose to be low-key. " Luthedo" Lucas growled immediately he saw E
" Was that a dream?" Ariel mumbled under her breath. She got down from the bed and looked around the room but the candles were gone. Mane and Zoey were gone too and the Scents were also gone. " That's why they're witches right?" She placed her hand on her little bump in an attempt to talk to her baby. " Messing with ones dreams and realities" she said again and freaked out when she saw a cut on her wrist. It wasn't painful but she can see the mark of the cut healing away. " Irene! Irene!! Irene!!!" She yelled frantically and Irene rushed in through the door. " Yes my lady" Irene replied while bowing her head. " What the hell is happening to me Irene? What the hell is happening to me?" Ariel yelled with beads of sweats rolling down her face. Adrenaline rushed through her as she stretched her right hand forward for Irene to see. Irene eyes turned dark at the sight of the mark. One could tell that something came to her mind and it's not something to have good hopes for. " Does it hurt?"
A knock from the door brought Ariel and Gracie back to their senses. Ariel found herself in the bathtub and looked around in a daze. " Messing with my dreams and reality again " She mumbled and within twenty minutes they were out of the bathroom. The other maids helped her dress up in a forest green dress that fell down to her toes. Her hair was braided sideways thereby revealing her flawless back. Black rings adorned her fingers and her lips were painted black. No make up, just a mascara and black lip shade. " These are the things you should not do when you go out there" Gracie took a book from the maid and flipped through it. " You must not take any drink apart from the one specially prepared for you" " You must not leave Dino side" " You must not Argue back during the Introduction" " You must not ask random question" " Is that all?" Ariel asked " For now" Gracie replied. " Dumb rules" Ariel scoffed and walked out of the room with the maids. ~~~~Escavor Pack~~~~ " Did you find her?"
She closed her eyes and took in his masculine scents. Only the heavens knows how much she has waited for a time like this to come. A time when she can hug Lucas and take in all his scents." You smell of alcohol" she drawl." Is there something on your mind?" Clarissa asked again and Lucas released her grip from his waist.He took few steps forward and dipped his hands in his pant pockets." What do you want Clarissa? Why are you here?" Lucas asked . No one knows what was going on in his mind. How back was straight and voice distant."Like I said earlier, I brought you snacks" Clarissa replied meekly." Aren't you suppose to be leading the hunting team tonight? " Lucas asked again with a hint of annoyance in his voice. On a normal day, he wouldn't sound cold and distance to Clarissa because he believes women shouldn't be treated coldly but right now, everything annoys him . Even the slightest provocation." I got some bruises from the woods yesterday so I'm resting"" Did see Ariel in
Trigger warning!!!This chapter contains violence and other traumatizing contents.Irene quickly put the pill in a glass of water and gave it to Ariel to drink." Trust me Ariel. It's not harmful" Irene said with puppy eyes when she saw the look on Ariel's face. She took the cup from Irene and gulped the content down. Her face turned horrible when the taste of the pill hits her tongue.She looked below and saw young girls being dragged by the women. Their hands were tied behind their backs. Wailing and screaming escaped from their lungs as they were lead away like cattles taken to the slaughter." This is how it's done. Those without power don't deserve to live" Serena said beside Ariel and she just give her the cold shoulder. she thought her mother was a good person but she never expected her to be so heartless and cold blooded." With time, you will understand everything I'm doing when you become the queen"" To hell with being the queen" Ariel spat with venom in her voice . The ma
The chanting continues, all eyes were on Dino and Ariel. Apart from this being a welcoming ritual, this ritual is also a marriage rite for those that understand the meaning.Dino was beyond excited because he had waited all his life for this day to come. A day he could finally washed the foot of his betrothed, a day they will be bond together as one. He bent his head forward and placed his lips on Ariel's ankle. Her stomach twisted in disgust from his gesture. She tried to retract her leg from his grip but it was fruitless. He was stronger than her and her foots were at his Mercy." Leg so white as Jade" he mumbled and planted another kiss on it before massaging her toe. His massaging skills were so good that Ariel almost forget that she's in the middle of a ritual and not a spa.She wanted to yell and cuss him but remembered the rules forbids her from talking. She could only vent her anger in her heart and with her piercing glare.' Dino! I swear I will kill you if you do that again
