"Is Lilith aware of this?" I asked.

I had no idea why, but I had a feeling from the day I saw the witch... I had a feeling that she was aware and that she had a connection to Nora.

The way she spoke to me, I knew I couldn't kill her just like that because she wasn't scared of dying.

"Yes, she is," Nora responded as she embraced me tightly. "Please do not harm her, she helped me realize who I am... Without her help, I wouldn't have known," she added, and I nodded. Even though she didn't request Lilith's life again, I still wouldn't be able to kill her.

I realized she was the only friend Nora ever had. "Matteo too?" I asked.

She looked up at me, wondering how I knew Matteo was also aware. She felt sorry for leaving me in the dark.

"I'm sorry that he had to find out before you, it wasn't intentional," she said. "Please forgive me," she pleaded.

My shirt was already soaked with her tears, so I carefully pulled her away from me. "Nora, you need to stop crying. I would never do anyth

    GAVNERI had just returned from the hospital, walking through the hallway as the radiant sun sipped its rays on the marble floor."Gavner," a familiar voice called, one I could never forget.It may seem like I had forgotten my aim, but the truth is that I was confused. I wanted to make it up to Nora, even when I knew it wasn't going to be easy.I turned around, facing Horace, as he walked up to me. My heart thudded faster like I was scared about something, but I waved it off."Why did you stop me?" I asked, as his eyes were glued to me.I wondered why he stared at me like that. I hated it. "When did you return from the hospital?" he asked, not taking his eyes away from me."You have no right to ask me that!" I spat.He seemed to have forgotten that I am his elder brother, just because the Alpha didn't give him the right to walk up to me and demand my whereabouts."I have the right to, I'm the Alpha," he said fiercely, slipping his hands into his jacket.I was sick and tired of it all,

    GAVNER I ran my fingers through my hair before putting my shirt on. Then I slumped on the bed. She took a deep breath. "Is it Nora? Is she the one on your mind these days?" Angelica asked as she cursed. Sadness clouded her features. I didn't trust her, she could harm Nora if she ever finds out I'd been trying to get close to her. "That's none of your business, now leave here... When I need you, I'll come to you." I snarled. "You don't have to tell me, I'm already aware." Angelica stuttered, and with that, she stumped out of my chambers. ~ I pushed the door open, walking into the meeting room as my eyes scanned around. It seemed like I cut them off from their conversation as they all stared at me. The room was stuffy and clouded with anger and contempt. I walked up to an empty chair and sat comfortably. Horace looked away from me as he focused back on the men, whose eyes were blazing with determination. "It seemed like I interrupted something here, I apologize for that," I s

    NORAAs the sun began to rise over the castle, I yawned, spinning around on the bed. Zelda climbed on the bed, meowing in my ears as I slightly opened my eyes, the bright sunlight exuding its rays into my chambers as it sipped into my eyes.As soon as I opened my eyes fully, she meowed again. "How was your night, Zelda?" I asked, crawling to the edge of the bed as I placed my feet on the floor."I will shower and take you to Lilith, I'm sure she's awake," I said as I strolled into the bathroom.I paused in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection as memories of last night flashed through my head.I felt goosebumps when I remembered how Zelda suddenly sneaked in through my window and suddenly spoke to me. My head went berserk.But all thanks to her, she was the reason I found the courage to save Lilith.Though something still bothered me, even though I told Horace the truth about me, I was still scared. I felt like I couldn't trust him, even when I wanted to.Just like Zelda had a

    NORAI wondered why she cut me off, sometimes I just wish Horace didn't get to reclaim me. I think my life would have been better and simpler if he hadn't.No one will know who I am, and I won't have to be scared to die the way I am now.My mom had risked her life for me multiple times and died, but I wouldn't let that go to waste."But werewolves don't see through walls," Lilith said as our eyes met, wrinkling my eyes. I wondered how serious the statement she made was."Are you saying Horace isn't a werewolf?" I asked, becoming more inquisitive.But I knew that wasn't possible, I had seen him shift into his wolf form countless times."I'm not going to conclude that, he's a wolf, that's why he's the Alpha... Nothing more, nothing less," she said.I knew she was aware of something, but she didn't want to tell me, or probably she didn't want me to get worried.My wolf whimpered as I suddenly felt the urge to leave there and go outside, to the hallway.Lilith gazed at me like she knew wh

    NORA I stared at him, I had no idea what he wanted. First, he came back to me apologizing, he hugged me, and now I want to make him feel better, but he's scared his brother might see us. He placed one hand on my backbone and the other below my ass, scooping me up. He walked over to the table in the corner of the room, making me sit on it as he took a deep breath. Staring into my eyes, he spoke, "Nora, I overheard your conversation that night. I've had my doubts about you," he sighed, closing his eyes. My heart dropped, it was over for me. Not only was Horace aware, but Gavner overheard me as well. I had no idea what to do. I sat still as Gavner hovered over me, his hot breath scorching my face. "You knew?" I asked, and he nodded his head. Placing his palm on my face, he caressed softly. "I know asking for your trust will be too much, so I won't... Rather, I will always be here to protect you." He nibbled on his bottom lip and said, "I just hope you'd give me the chance to, and i

    NORA Queen Naida and Shiba listened carefully as Ophelia narrated what exactly happened twenty-two years ago—an incident they never imagined took place. Twenty-two years ago, they mourned her death, their hearts filled with pain and sorrow. But right now, she was standing right there in front of them. Queen Shiba was certain that her sons had met with Horace and Gavner, but she was scared that Gavner now had a rival who also wanted the throne. She wondered why he was slowing down with their plans, she had no idea what was diverting his attention, but when she did find out what it was, she would not waste any time wiping them away from this world. "I can still remember that night vividly, he promised to find a better place for myself and my unborn child. I became a rouge, but he never returned." Ophelia said as the color drained from her face.

    GAVNER"Gavner," she said, her voice stern but tinged with concern. "Are you aware that Ophelia returned with her sons?"I looked up at my mother, surprised that she had already heard about Rodriguez and Hernandez, but I had no idea Ophelia was there with them. "Yes, mom, I'm aware of that. But I had no idea that Ophelia had returned," I said to her, my voice steady as I walked over to the couch beside her and sat down."Did father really have an affair with her?" I asked because I was still finding it hard to believe that the late Alpha had cheated on his mates and bore his sons without them knowing.Father didn't look like a man who was capable of cheating... he always acted so uprightly."I was not buying her filthy talks, not until she showed me and Naida one of the late Alpha's most valuable items," she said, her voice filled with emotions as she took a deep breath.She rested her arms on the table as she looked straight at me, her expression serious.

Vlad commanded.Standing straight, Marcel stared directly at him. "She does exist... The Tribrid. I visited the witches and vampire clans but couldn't get her, but I finally found her in the Midnight Prowlers pack, where she happens to be the Luna of the pack."

    NORAI had no idea why that happened to be the question Horace had to ask me... he made my heart beat a thousand times.Fear and anxiety engulfed my entire body system as I was shaken by forces I had no idea about."What do you mean by that?" I asked instantly, feeling uncomfortable.He shook his head. "Forget about it... I didn't mean to do that to you, and trust me this once when I say I'm not here to harm you," he said. The sincerity in his eyes pulled me to him.No!I waved it off.I wouldn't fall for his tricks, or rather, the tricks of the dragon!"Why are you here?" I asked, and I needed an answer that was straight to the point. "You know you can actually sit down if you want to talk to me, and not squatting right in front of me makes me uncomfortable."That wasn't the reason I said that... he was just right there. Very close to my unborn child. Why?Why does he have to be so close to me if he just wants to speak to me?Now I have no idea what to do. I'm heavily pregnant, and I
