NORAAs the sun began to set over the horizon, I strolled down to visit my mom, sauntering through the quiet road. I was just returning from the hospital, feeling happy. I had gone through some books containing incantations and magical powers, though I had no idea much about them. I had to try something.The air was musty and damp, and the scent of mushrooms and wet earth lingering around in my nose reminded me of Gavner.I was glad I did... all I had to do was wait for three days, and hopefully Turaya wakes up. That way, Queen Shiba won't have to be lonely anymore.I couldn't explain it, but my senses heightened, and my instincts kept telling me that someone was following me, but when I turned back and looked, I couldn't find anyone.Looking up, I saw a dwarf and some people—two men and a woman. I could easily tell by their walking steps. They were clad in black robes and cloaks, adorned with a design sign on their robes.I could hear them murmuring as they walked up to me—incantatio
NORAThe air was filled with energy, unleashing a torrent of powers, but I wasn't scared. I was scared, but I wasn't scared... something in me or out of me was overcoming that fear, and I had no idea what it was.My eyes darted to my hands as they rose on their own accord. I knew something was off because I had no powers yet, but I was seeing myself doing some funny things.Lightning appeared in the sky as flames danced in my palms. The sky became dark, and a loud thunderstorm was heard.Stretching my hand forward as the fire clashed with the dwarf, I thought the whole event was funny. I watched the dwarf run around as the fire burned him. It roasted him, and as if the fire wasn't enough, another thunder strike struck him, and he gave a loud shout, slumping to the floor.Death?Now, they were the ones to meet my kind.I walked over to the dwarf as he lay beside the lady and said, "Say hello to my kind," giving out a loud laugh as I turned around.Watching the two men take steps backwa
NORA"Let her go!" I heard a voice command and tilted my neck to see who it was.I was in shock when I sighted Hernandez walking in my direction along with his bother.Pulling me back, the man holding me intoned, "Do not come any closer!" as he pulled me backward.Staring at my mother as she began to take steps forward, walking up to me, I wondered why she wasn't listening to me. She didn't want to lose me again but wouldn't listen to me.I had no idea why she didn't understand that staying here would cause more danger to both of us.My eyes met Hernandez's as he gracefully walked up to me. I had no idea if he still knew something or if he had completely lost his memory from the other day. That wasn't my concern at the moment."Hernandez, please, can you do anything in your power to take my mother away from her? I can't handle him while she's here staring at me," I pleaded, my voice low and demanding.He stopped walking and stared at me for a while before nodding his head. I had no id
NORAStaring into the fire as the bodies of the so-called witches burned down, I could still feel Rodriguez's presence behind me.I clearly told him to leave, and I didn't want to see him. He saved my life, and I appreciate it, but I don't want anyone lingering around me. not even the son of Ophelia."You need to go and see her later. She is extremely worried." I heard Hernandez say this as he stood beside me, staring into the fire.Turning around as I stared at him, I said, "Thank you so much... you have no idea how happy I am." I appreciated it.Seconds later, I began to wonder what made me feel Hernandez could help me and keep my mother safe... after all, he is the son of the deceitful Ophelia. I had no idea what was going on, but somehow I feel Hernandez is a nice guy and wouldn't be part of the evil plots.But what made me think like that? After all, I wasn't supposed to trust anyone."You are Nora, right? Horace's mate?" Rodriguez asked again, steering up the already-heated fi
GAVNERIt's been weeks since Horace sent me away from the pack, because of his insecurities.I wouldn't call it insecurities because I was ready to take Nora away from him. There is absolutely nothing he does for her other than sex and when he killed the lady from a neighboring pack, other than that there is nothing else.I knew Nora would not be happy to see me leave, she knows me too well that Horace can't ask me to leave... I have my say and the choice is mine but this time, I had no choice but to leave.I wanted to leave so badly, so I would understand how I felt for Nora. Those feelings were driving me crazy... I had to know if they were real or if I was just jealous that she was with Horace.My mother is so upset with me for leaving, she knows I have every right to decline Horace orders but I have my reason even if I want the position as Alpha, it won't be now when Ophelia's sons are fighting for it.I needed to sort myself out... I feel suffocated. They have no idea that I'm s
GAVNEROpening her eyes, she looked down at herself surprised at what she had turned into.I knew her joy knew no bounds because this is the moment she has desperately wanted. Her eyes peered through the glowing blue iris of a powerful wolf.Her sleek, sunset-brown fur shimmered under the beautiful sunset. Standing tall, her muscles rippled with newly found strength.Nora's senses sharpened as her hearing became sharper, detecting the tiniest sound. The scent of the damp earth- my scent filling her nose up. Her teeth elongated into fangs and her nails grew into a predatorial claw, showing that she is a living soul of the ancestors - a Tribrid.She growled, leaping around as she steadily walked up to me, rubbing her fur on me.'Let me take over now!' Sam ordered, I had no choice because if I didn't, he will eventually find his way out.Gazing into her eyes, I remembered Nora had called her ... 'Daciana,' Sam interrupted me."Daciana, you are beautiful." I was serious about the words t
Angelica's heart paced as she strolled to Queen Shiba's room... she had promised to tell her something worth listening to.Trying her very best, watching Nora's every move but not being too calculative because spying on someone wasn't her thing.But she heard some things from Candra, so that could help her a lot, though she has a thing against Nora.Angelica despised Nora so much because, ever since she entered their lives, it's been one problem or another. Not only did Nora succeed in taking her man away from her, but she also stole the heart of Queen Shiba.One thing she knew was that Queen Shiba would not look into anyone she wasn't interested in, and now she has made her spy on Nora... of course, Nora is her Luna.'Luna, my foot!' she screeched.Getting to the door, she placed her hands on her chest as she tried to calm her heartbeat, but all to no avail.Pushing her lock to fall on her shoulders, she asked one of the maidens walking out of Shiba's room, "Is she in right now?"The
QUEEN SHIBAI walked into the hospital, excited and nervous. Nobody could talk me away from thinking that what happened wasn't a miracle, because indeed it was.Turaya has been unconscious for almost six months, and then she suddenly wakes up. I was overly excited to see my only daughter because it seems like Naida and her son are bent on separating me from my family.Horace knew how lonely I would be, but he still sent Gavner away because he was sure about Gavner spending time with Nora. The heck, that's crazy.I was sure Nora didn't like him, or rather, she just had a crush on him, because they had no relationship of any sort, but he suddenly claimed her as his mate.I wouldn't blame anyone but my son, who allowed Angelica to use his brain."Good day, ma." I nodded as one of the nurses greeted me as I climbed the stairs."Thank you. Is Doctor Charlie in?"I was so eager to see my daughter when the doctor called me, telling me that she had regained consciousness."Yes, ma, he is in h
