MELISSA’S POV

I couldn’t believe the way she looked at me. She didn’t feel remorse for what she did and that made me mad.

“You were recruited not long and then you already got the favor of the CEO? You dared to make a gown with the intention of wanting to take all the glory to yourself? What are you thinking?” She scoffed.

“What? Do you know I can sue you for this?” I said, trying to restrain my anger.

“Well, go ahead.” She rolled her eyes and walked out of the office.

I slammed my fist on my desk out of anger. How could she do such a thing without feeling remorse and then she doesn’t care if I decide to sue her.

Then Andrew walked in, with his right hand in his pocket.

“Anything wrong?” He asked, with curiosity written all over his face.

“Nothing.” I said, changing my expression.

“I noticed that Alicia left the office, looking frustrated. Did anything happen between you both?” He asked, out of concern.

I didn’t know if it was okay to tell him about it as it felt too much for me to b

    MELISSA’S POV“So, do you feel better now?” He asked, snapping me back to reality.“Y…yeah. I do. Thank you.”“Alright, let’s get you back home.”I was grateful in my heart as he had offered me a ride, because I still felt destabilized over what had happened.~“Thanks for the ride.” I said, with a slight smile.“You are welcome. Take good care of yourself.”I went inside, straight to my bedroom and stared at the ceiling for a while.“She deserved that, anyways.” I muttered under my breath and held the duvet tight and slept off. The next day, I got ready for work and when I got into the office, I met everyone, gathered in a circle.“Good morning everyone.” I greeted, walking towards them.“Morning, Melissa. Let’s have you here as well.” Diana said, looking at me calmly.“Now, Melissa, I understand your pain, regarding the gown that was put into the shredder. It was hard work and effort, it was wrong of Alicia to do that. And I have spoken to her about it. Alicia?”“I’m sorry for putt

    STEFAN’S POVIt was about time for break and I wanted to see Melissa and if possible, take her out for lunch. On my way, I overheard her talking to her colleague and when I was about to walk towards her, her conversation changed. She was on a call.“Who…who are you?” I heard her ask.I could hear their conversations over the phone and I knew that for her not to tell her colleague, she won’t tell anyone else, so it was better to offer her a hand of help. Then I waited for her at the entrance of the company and we drove off.~“How did you know that she was abducted?” She asked, staring at my eyes, with many questions swimming in her head.I was taken aback with the question she asked, because It had skipped my mind that she didn’t tell anyone about this, so it was only right for her to be curious.“Wh…what?” I acted like I still didn’t understand what was going on.“I didn’t tell anyone she was abducted. How did you find out?” She asked, with seriousness in her expression.“Well, that’

    MELISSA’S POVI didn’t like such dreams as they frightened me to the bones and they felt so real that it made me scared of sleeping. There was no time to keep brooding over the nightmare as I could be late for work if I kept thinking about it.I got ready for work and as I was locking the door to my apartment, my landlady appeared and walked towards me. “Good morning, ma’am.” I greeted, with a slight smile on my face.“Morning. Just here to remind you that you are to pay more than half of what you owe me, which is your rental fee.”“Ma’am. Please allow me to pay half. I haven’t started receiving enough as I just started work at the company.”“Melissa? You heard me right, isn’t it? No excuses.” She said, then walked out.I sighed. I was thinking I was going to be able to keep an amount to myself, especially with the raise I could have earned, but Layla’s loose mouth has cost me my salary and raise for the month.As I remembered Layla, depression dawned on me as I still had not gotten

    MELISSA’S POVI needed to get to the address as quick as possible, because nothing else mattered than this address. I got to do anything to save Layla, and thankfully, it wasn’t something so hard to do. They just needed my presence.“Hello. I am at the address and I am alone.” I said, hoping nothing won’t prevent me from seeing Layla today.“Yeah, I can see. Now cross over to the other side of the road and walk through the alley. You’ll see a car at the other end, just get in.” He gave me directions and hung up.To be honest, I was frightened, because these people were too dangerous to trust. But if they killed Layla when I still had the chance to save her, it was going to be hard to forgive myself. I walked through the alley, with goosebumps and even when my leg wasn’t ready to keep moving, I still forced myself to.When I got to the end of the alley, as the man said, I met a car, it was a dark hair and then as I walked closer to the car, the door opened and I got in. The driver wore

    MELISSA’S POV“Interesting.” He smirked, which made me feel creeped out.“Get me a chain.” He ordered one of his goons.I wondered why he had asked for a chain, but I was hoping it wasn’t something that was going to hurt us. After about two minutes, the chain was handed over to him, then he came closer to me.I was nervous with the way he was staring at me and I couldn’t bear to make eye contact any longer with him. Then he loosed the rope they used to tie me and then with force, he chained me instead.“What are you doing?” I retorted, in tears.“You shouldn’t be tied with ropes. You should be chained.” He said, then clicked his tongue.“You are hurting my friend. Why using chains?” Layla shouted at him.“Excuse us. And take the other girl away from here.” He ordered, with his gaze, still fixed on me.“Alright sir.”“Wha…what’s going on? Where are you taking her to?” I asked, scared, not knowing what they were going to do to her, or me.“Well, you should worry about yourself more ofte

    MELISSA'S POV.I woke up, wishing that I would meet myself, back at home, that everything was a dream, but I still opened my eyes to the ugly basement we were held in."Layla, Layla." I called out to her, softly, so as not to raise any alarm, or sort.She squinted her eyes as she woke up and looked at me."Melissa." She said, softly, adjusting herself on the chair."C...can you look around? Probably if you see any sharp objects or something.""I can't find any, here. Even if I find any, there's no way I will be able to pick it up." She sighed, deeply, looking devastated."It's fine. I'm not even able to move at all." Then we heard footsteps, coming down the stairs. They went straight to Layla, loosed the rope that she was tied to and then dragged her away."Where are you taking her to?" I shouted, scared that they were going to do something really bad to her."Leave me alone! Let me be!" I could hear her screams as they went up the stairs.I was so restless and didn't know what to d

    MELISSA’S POVAn hour had passed and I had not seen a trace of Layla or the weird man. Then I heard someone coming down and I hoped that it would be that man as curiosity was killing me right now. “So, I am back now.” He said as he walked up to me, with that same syringe in his hand, but there was my blood in it and something was definitely mixed in it.“Wh…what’s that for?” I asked, nervously.“Oh! This? Well, this is going back to you. I am returning your blood to you. Aren’t you happy?” He said, with a tone of sarcasm.“What did you put in there?” I asked, still looking nervous.“I think all that matters should be that I am returning your blood to you, isn’t it?”“That seems like you mixed something in it. You have an ulterior motive.” “Well, you’re being too much of a chit-chat, you know.” He said as he held my hand, right.“No, please don’t do this to me. Don’t.” I screamed out and tried to move, but all to no avail and then I heard a loud thud and opened my eyes.It was Stefan

    STEFAN’S POV.“Arrgh” I grunted as I slowly opened my eyes.I was in the basement, and I felt much better than when I injected myself with that. If that man had already injected it into Melissa, she was going to react badly to it and then unspeakable things were going to happen, which wasn’t supposed to be. The human world and the supernatural world ought to be balanced and wolves were not supposed to lose control in this world.It was night already and then I had a bath, because I had gotten dirty. While in the shower, I could not help but keep thinking about Melissa. I was going to break down if anyone had done something bad to her and I will no longer have the will to live. In order to prevent that, it was better for me to protect her with my all.After I had my bath, I went to the balcony and I felt much relieved with the cool breeze that caressed my skin. Looking at the stars and seeing how beautiful they were made Melissa’s image to keep popping up in my head. I yearned to cudd

    MELISSA'S POV.Bonus Chapter.I got out of the swirling portal and wiped my hair to the back as it had scattered due to the wind. Oh, my. It has been a long while since I got here. It feels like second home.I walked out of the woods and then when I got to the road side, I brought out the currency I had kept since I left here and then hailed a cab.“Taxi!” I hailed the cab and got into it. I sat back and exhaled, ready to enjoy the ride.“Where to, ma’am?” He asked, politely.“Stefan’s Design, please.”I wanted to see how Edward was doing after all these months. I was certain he was doing well as he was a good leader and was capable of leading the people well. As soon as I got to the company, I ensured I put on the cap I brought along with me, so I won’t be recognized by anyone here. What explanation would I give them all if they caught sight of me? So, it was best for me to go unnoticed.I walked up to the vending machine and smiled as I recalled beautiful memories here, especial

    STEFAN'S POV.It was a bright new day and this day felt different. Of course, it was the day to determine if we were going to win this war or not. But I had faith that our fate had something better in store for us all."It's time, right?" Melissa asked."Yes." Then I turned to the three warriors, Diego and Natasha. "We might face fear, hurdles and problems that seem bigger than us all, but we'll never back out until we win. Are we ready to fight this war!" I voiced out in confidence."Yes, Alpha!" They all chorused and then we headed out of the witches' kingdom back to the woods.While walking in the woods, Diego spoke up."The witches were really selfish this time, apart from giving Luna Jana back to us. If they couldn't fight the war, they could have at least, given us something which could be helpful to us." Diego pouted."It's fine, Diego. I believe we will win this war." "With or without them." Natasha added, with confidence."That's the spirit! It's time to show Valon the grea

    MELISSA'S POV.I was in the room which they had kept me in, with my wounds magically healed. I was thankful that the witches had saved me, but I feared that they would be just another enemy whom I had gotten into their hands.Suddenly, the door creaked open and I noticed one of the witches at the door."You need to come out. Our Queen has asked for your presence." She informed me, without a smile."Do you think she wants to strike me dead or so something really nasty to me?" I asked, out of anxiousness."Please come out before things get nasty." She replied.Why were they so uptight here? I guess that's why they still stood strong, because they didn't allow any slight weakness to destroy them. They were queens over their weaknesses.I slowly followed her out to her meeting hall and to my surprise, I noticed Stefan, standing right before her."Melissa." He called out to me, looking touched."Stefan." I called out to him, softly as I covered my mouth with my hand.I couldn't believe it

    STEFAN’S POV.It was a new day, and finally, we had gotten to the witches’ kingdom. I was glad that at least up to seven men made it with me and I hoped that what we came here for was going to be successful and not abortive.The witches were hard to please and to plead to them was a really difficult thing to do with a low chance of being helped. I was lucky that I was helped many years ago without too much effort and I hoped it would be the same, this time, because we didn’t have much time to waste anymore.We got to the large gate and we were stopped by two of their female guards. As fragile as they looked, they were really powerful. One could sense power going through their veins and you wouldn’t want to upset them.“Please allow us in. We have an important matter to talk about to your Queen.” I pleaded.“Our Queen do not want us to allow people in, so you have to go back.” One of them said, with a straight face.“Please you have to allow us in. We came all the way here and tried o

She charged towards us and in one strike, she killed three men and then slashed Diego’s skin.“Aaargh!” Diego groaned in pain as he dropped down to the floor.“Her slashes are painful. The only way to kill her is to aim our claws at her heart.” Natasha informed me.“Alright, I guess we have to watch her moves closely as she is really fast.”“Exactly!”I nodded and Natasha and I charged towards her and we were able to avoid her claws. We successfully darted our claws at her heart and she became weak and fell to the ground and was dying slowly.“I think we should stop digging into her heart. Probably we can give her a chance or sort. She might agree to join us in our journey.”“No, Stefan. Do not be in a hurry to gain more people to fight with you. Her kind are deceptive in nature and the second chance you give her, she will ensure she kills you and trust me, that sec

    MELISSA’S POV.What am I going to do? I began to think hard and it felt as if my heart which was beating fast was too loud for me to hear my thoughts and I almost screamed at this. Then a thought came to me and Immediately, I put in action.Any wrong move or wrong act could take away the bit of trust he had given me today. I quickly sat on his bed and crossed my legs, then I tried to calm myself so I do not look suspicious.“Phew! You can do this.” I sighed and encouraged myself.Then the door creaked open and my chest heaved up, refusing to go down. Valon walked into the room and his expression showed how surprised he was to see me.“What are you doing here, Jana? What do you want or should I say to what pleasure do I owe your presence?” He inquired while he stood, gazing at me.“I came to ask for a favor.”“What favor is that?” He asked, with his furrowed brows, becoming more obvious.“I want a personal guard. In fact, I need a personal guard. Ever since you gave me one just to tes

    MELISSA’S POV.I didn’t know if this could be a trap or not and I wouldn’t want to fall into something like this, so I had to carefully choose my words and know the right action to take while in this dungeon.“I guess a lot of things have gotten into your head. Help me check if there is anything like a letter in your cell.” Then he scoffed. “I know about the letter which you are looking for.” He blurted out as he held the bars of his cell.If truly he knew what I was looking for and could say something really informative, it was best to ask him but I needed to try my best not to sound desperate.“You know about the letter, really? Well, if you do, where is it?” I asked, hoping he was going to tell me without I having to go through any sort of stress.“Not so fast, Luna.”“What do you want?” I let out my frustration.“I will tell you all you need to know if you are able to persuade Valon to set me free from the dungeon.”“But you do not deserve to be there. You and I both know that.

Some of them seem excited while some had expressions of dread on their faces.“Now Alpha, it is time for us to have a match. Are you ready or you are still warming up?” Theodore asked, looking down at me.I glanced at Natasha and Diego. Diego was looking angry while Natasha was calm. I also stared at the crowd and I could feel the atmosphere was tense around them as well, then I looked back at Theodore who was acting foolish.To me, he was just like a boy whom I needed to correct and knock some senses into his head.“I know very well that you are mocking me and if I were to look at our age, I am very much older than you. I am not interested in bragging about how I could knock you out in a second.” I said to him and he snickered.Then I turned to the crowd.“You all are wasting the strength and the time that is needed for more important things tha

I am all ears.” “I actually agreed at the last minute to do what you wanted me to do back then, but the guard decided not to allow me out of the drum.”I had also planned that I would use the guard’s hatred towards me to my advantage. After all, the wicked go down.“So, what you are saying is that he intentionally left you to die.” Valon tried to make sense of what I had just said to him.“That’s correct.” I affirmed, trying to maintain how fast my heart was beating.I wouldn’t want him to be suspicious of my moves.“Well, I do not believe you. If I have to believe you, then I will need evidence.” He replied as he clasped his fingers and rested his chin on them.“What evidence do you need? Because I am certain that you will get evidence. I know he hates me and wants to get rid of me.”“The only way I can get my evidence of what you claimed is if I make him your
