~NORA~I saw the black dragon again, its eyes burning with molten lava, its body covered in scales, its claws extended, and its jaws open wide.The dragon circled me, its massive wings sending gusts of wind that stirred up dust and leaves. Its eyes bore into mine, and I could feel the heat of its breath on my face.Suddenly, the dragon lunged forward, its claws extending more widely. I screamed as the dragon's razor-sharp claws plunged into my chest, piercing my heart, then ripping it out. I could feel the searing pain spreading through my body, and I knew I wasn't going to last.I continued to struggle, the dream becoming more and more lucid as I began to toss and turn, whimpering in my sleep. The dragon carried my weak body, its eyes still boring into me, and made a loud grunt before throwing me on a rock.Sensing my distress, Horace, who was sleeping beside me, slowly opened his eyes and glanced at me. He noticed I was writhing in my sleep and my breaths were coming in brief, pa
~NORA~"Well, something caught my interest." She said as her face flushed with shades of pink.I knew that look—she found something that caught her interest.I could not help but wonder who it was.If it happened to be someone I knew,"..so back to our conversation, what's your dream? What was it all about?" Lilith asked."I've been having strange nightmares about a black dragon plunging his claws into my heart and sometimes his fangs directly below my ears," I explained to her as she concentrated on me.I had no idea why, but I felt that Lilith wasn't listening to me even though she was fully concentrating on me."Where has Horace marked you?" she asked, making me cringe."Yes?" I hesitated."Do not worry, I won't get any information you wouldn't want me to," she said, and I nodded."Have you been in contact with Daciana?"Daciana?Again.I had no idea who she was, it has just been me my whole life."Daciana?" I asked as my eyes crinkled. Kneading my shoulders, I massaged the side of
~NORA~ 'Are you okay? Is everything alright, Nora?' I heard Horace's voice inside my head. I wasn't hoping that I would have my mind linked with Horace yet, I wasn't ready for it yet. I just hoped that he hadn't read my thoughts. 'Yes, I am,' I responded to him. 'Where are you? I will come to get you,' Horace said as I turned to stare at Lilith. Lilith walked closer to me, and ridiculously, she waved her hand in front of me. "I've blocked it, you can't hear him, and he can't hear you," she said. "What is wrong?" Lilith asked, carrying two bowls, she placed them on the floor and poured cookies into each of them. Zelda meowed as she walked up to Lilith, while Beautrix flapped her wings as she flew around the room before later settling on the floor as they began to feast on their meals. Hopefully, I could get them a better meal from the kitchen. "Is it possible for Horace to have been hearing everything going on in my mind?" "I mean, I just heard his voice loud and clear," I ask
~NORA~I rested my elbows on the table as I supported my head with my hands, my mind racing to every possible reason why I was feeling like that, but I was still unable to find the words to explain what it was all about.I knew that I was on the verge of losing control of myself, and I didn't want to hurt him. I reached for my wine glass, and my hand began to tremble. I managed to raise it, bringing it to my mouth, but it fell on the table, smashing into pieces as the liquid spilled, pouring to the floor. Nervously, I reached for a napkin to clean it up. Weak in fear that Horace would be so upset at my behavior, he leaned towards me, and I could feel his breath on my face. He placed a soft kiss on my lips. My fangs began to elongate, and I could feel my mouth watering at the thought of sinking my teeth into Horace's neck.I couldn't help but wonder if he felt this way when he marked me. I was already sweating profusely, and suddenly I could taste the metallic tang of his blood on
~GAVNER~As I walked through the halls of the castle, I had gone to see how Kiara and Anna were coping.I could feel Nora's presence around there—her scent was pulling me in.The scent of lavender and roses.I haven't seen her since the night she accepted my rejection, all I hoped for was to run into her... I would really appreciate it.I was lost in thought when I saw someone's shadow. She staggered and collapsed against the wall, unable to take another step, she slumped on the floor.My heart skipped a beat as I realized it was Nora. She lay on the floor, grasping at her chest.Without hesitation, I rushed to her side, kneeling beside her. She looked up at me, her eyes filled with tears, and I saw the pain and hurt in her eyes. I wondered what had happened.Adjusting my jacket, "Nora? What happened?" I asked as she moved her hair away from her face.She raised her hand to me. "Help me," she whispered.Quickly, I scooped her up in my arms and carried her into my bedroom. I laid her
~GAVNER~ I opened my eyes to the harsh light streaming in through the window. I yawned and stretched as I looked around the room, remembering I had brought Nora to my secret cottage. I looked up at the bed, but Nora was not lying there. I thought she had left already, maybe she hated me that much. I sat up, staring around the room, her clothes were still neatly folded on the couch. I smiled as I knew she was still around because she couldn't leave in my clothes. Suddenly, I heard a noise coming from the kitchen. I quickly got up and made my way to the kitchen. I stopped by the door as I gazed at Nora standing by the cooker, stirring a pot filled with cereal, her eyes bright, warm, and innocent as she continued stirring the content in the pot. I walked up to her, and rubbed my forehead softly, still feeling a little dizzy, I had stayed up all night. "Good morning. What are you preparing?" She didn't make a move, it was like she already knew I was there. "Gavner, did you change my
~NORA~ The sunlight flickered directly on my face. I blinked my eyes as I kept on washing the dishes, gazing into nothingness. I could feel his deep breath at the nook of my neck as he stepped closer, my heart pounding in my chest. He stepped closer behind me, his arms outstretched, and he wrapped them around my waist. I felt his warm embrace and his body trembling against mine as he held me tight. My breathing is shallow and uneven. I knew that I shouldn't be here. With him... in his arms, but I couldn't help the way she felt with him. "Please," he whispered. "Let me hug you," he said, his voice trembling with emotion. "Just for two minutes. Let me hold you... That's all I'm asking." I turned slightly, trying to gaze at his face as I pulled his arms apart. Turning around, our eyes met. His eyes... Those eyes were full of emotion, pleading with me to give in to him. "You know this isn't right, we can't do this," I said softly, not looking away from him. I w
~GAVNER~I drove us into the woods, and I knew she wondered why. Cocking her head in my direction, she stared at me, but I bore no emotions. I wanted to make up for my deed, and somehow I felt that she concluded that I probably wanted to spend the day with her. That was true to an extent, but I had to be careful not to upset Horace, I knew he wouldn't take it lightly. I kept on stealing glances at her, her face blank as she looked out the window, staring at the woods. It was the same route she took the night she tried to escape from me. She wondered what I wanted us to do there. Our eyes met when I stepped on the brake, and my lips curled in a smile as I placed my hand on her tightly clenched fist.There was nothing I wanted... other than her being comfortable around me. I packed the car, and we stepped out. The weather wasn't great as we strolled.My heart raced. I had no idea what reaction she would display, but I was glad I did something for her."Why are we here?" S
Five Years LaterAs the sun cast its golden rays over the grazed field, the sound of laughter filled the arena. The sun was setting, and the castle was joyful as everyone went on with their daily lives.It's been five years since the birth of Morgana, the daughter of a Tribrid, out into the world again. Morgana had grown into a high-spirited young girl.Running ahead of her was Nickolas. Ever since she was born, Nora and Gavner made sure to make her bond with Nickolas. Now, they were inseparable, playing around as Morgana chased after Nickolas. Their screams and laughter echoed throughout the open field."Morgana, be careful so you don't fall." Evelyn shouted so she could be heard as she smiled at their clumsiness.Moving into the castle with Nickolas, she grew fond of Morgana. Her eyes sparkled with joy as she admired the bond that the two kids formed between themselves."Yes, Aunty, I won't fall." Morgana chuckled as she kept on chasing after Nickolas.Over on the other side, Gavne
THIRD PERSON POV"Zelda... What? How's this even possible?" Mira stammered as she watched Zelda take a few more steps closer to her.Just like Lilith had told Zelda, she needed to take what was rightfully hers, so she decided to go back to the coven, but unfortunately, she couldn't give the comeback she really wanted to give because Lilith and Nora had killed the witches.Zelda chuckled upon seeing Mira... she was glad Mira was still alive so she could teach her a lesson."Are you surprised to see me? Or are you scared?" Zelda asked, and a cunning smile curled her lips as she glared at Mira.There was no way she would forget what Mira did to her... she just wouldn't forget it.Mira shook her head and said, "It's not possible for you to be alive! I watched the whole process as you were killed. There was no life left in you." Mira's hands trembled as she staggered backward.Zelda clenched her fists tightly as she decided to end it all—every single thing she went through in the past year
AURELIAPushing out a chair beside the dinning table as I sat down with a glass of coffee on my hand. I had promised Nora that she would live a happy life, afterall I was the one who decided to bring her into this life so I do not intend to make her suffer this much.I'm glad that she has been strong enough to undergo all of the misfortunes in this life.I felt so sorry to my daughter for causing her all of these stress, if I had let them kill her years ago, she would not be here going through all of these shit.For weeks, I've been contemplating on what to do to help clean up this mess... I had no idea what my fate was so I guess I just have to do whatsoever I had to do to end all of these.Gulping down the contents in the cup, I rose to my feet.~"What a long time Aurelia," Michela hissed turning her back at me as she strode past the hallway.She had always acted bossy to me so it wasn't a new thing, I had only come here to clear up everything. Nora didn't tell me but it seemed lik
NORAI wondered how worried Matteo was about me when he told me that, though it was really getting out of hand. Horace was making things worse, and I have no idea what to do about it.But then again, I can't leave the castle because if I do, the witches and whatever else they were, will come to attack me, and I'm not strong enough to handle them yet.I'd rather stay here, where I'm free.I'm a pregnant woman who needs to enjoy this period of her life, but here I am worried about my life and that of my unborn child, and then it was really great that I turned him down.I had no idea if he was worried about me or Lilith... why didn't I think of it?Lilith must have rejected his offer, so he came to me because he knew if I left, she must go with me.'I'm sorry, but I can't just leave.Come to think of it, I should run away... I should leave my family here because Horace is harassing me.I will survive his molestation, but at the moment I need to think of a way to clear this mess. Though I
MATTEOAs the days went on, I felt like I had no idea who Horace really was... he was changing by the day, and it was making me really scared.I had tried to talk to him, but he wasn't listening to me and always ended up shunning me away with a death threat.I was worried for everyone in the castle because we had no idea who would be his next target. I knew it was Nora, but then I knew he had his eyes on Gavner and Lilith.I was scared for them.~Days agoThe warriors were all seated under the mango tree as they talked about how stressful their day had been.Lopez sighed deeply, attracting other warriors, who tilted their heads, staring at him."What's wrong?" Thorin asked."I'm really scared of staying here in this castle... With everything that's going on in here," Lopez said calmly to avoid having his voice heard.Thorin and Gaius adjusted the way they sat, unable to say a word.Walker crossed his legs together and said, "Gaius, you were guarding the late Queen's chamber when that
MATTEOEver since I set my eyes on Lilith, I won't deny falling madly in love with her, but I was just scared that I might lose her again, just like I lost Elena.I didn't want that to happen considering the fact that she was taking care of Nora. I knew what the nature of her job stated and how she could lose her life any moment from now.All I just want is for her to be safe and sound. I can admire her from afar without her knowing, even though I'm aware that she's madly in love with me, but then there's nothing I can do about it.Ever since I returned to the pack after Horace and Rodriguez's fight, I apologized to her for how I reacted in the past, but she seemed to be slipping away from me. Maybe it was because I didn't know how to put my words together whenever I tried speaking to her, but within her, I just hoped that she was aware that I loved her with all my heart.All of my thinking migrated to when I accepted her as my mate... she was really shocked at my decision. I shut my
THIRD PERSON POVSeveral weeks agoOphelia couldn't believe Ambrose gave all of his powers to Lilith just to take her revenge on them. Now she won't forgive Lilith for ruining her plans.All of her plans have been ruined, and she has no idea what to do at the moment.She has lost everything…her son, her powers, Orion, who stood by her, Marcel, who always thought of a way out of any bad omen, and Rodriguez, who has left the pack and gone to prepare a better life for himself and a place to stay.She was all alone. Wandering in the wilderness, on the surface of the earth, she quietly hoped that she would run into Ambrose, even though he was dead.Standing several kilometers away, she could see a small home... It looked like an abandoned cottage. She smiled."Finally, I see where I can rest my head for some days, if not for that crazy bitch who ruined everything! Who the heck does she think she is?" Ophelia asked herself as she slipped her hands into her pocket to warm them from the cold.
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
HORACESitting on a chair on the balcony, I just couldn't forgive myself for what I did to my mother. Now no one wants to come around because they are scared that the same fate will fall on them.Even I will assume so with the rate at which I killed people, not to mention my mother.That crazy dragon was using me to get the revenge he wanted on the people who looked down at him, and now I have no idea what to do.Who's next on his list?Nora?That reminded me... I hadn't seen her around lately, but then something about her was driving my head crazy, making me want to go and look for her.The last time I saw her, her stomach was really big, like she was due to have her baby.I know that she has no idea, but every single minute, I always pray that I don't get to hurt her for any reason, but when it happens, I just can't stop myself because I'm being controlled."Damnit!" I cursed.With time, I knew I would not have anyone who would sincerely stand by me. Everyone is avoiding and staying
