Chapter 64Meera's gaze searched around her quickly, like an animal looking for its prey. If only there was anyone on sight and he or she would regret ever being born.Meera stood up slowly, still clasping the stone in her hand while feeling off its magic. The strength filled her in quickly like a rocket off to the planet. She felt new, she felt powerful all of a sudden.Her eyes took on a different color as a smile evaded her face in a devilish form. Just immediately, the color went back to its original and Meera felt like the most powerful witch alive.Well, she was. Who was strong enough to evade Hades? No one! And no one would be able to stand against her. She was now hyper-powerful, she could feel it in her vein, the rush of blood and the flow of power. She took a turn, and started dangerously, heading back victoriously like a whirlwind. Her steps were sharp and dangerous, frightening every animal in sight. Her feet went deep into the ground leaving a hint of her foot size as s
Chapter 65Eleanor fidgeted as she pulled to a sudden stop. Her gaze searched around her quickly and her heart took on a fast beat. She was in the middle of nowhere and she didn't even know which path to take since all the paths were covered with bushes and trees and leaves.She turned quickly, her mind in a whirlwind and her head making a quick calculation. What had happened?"Hey!" Skyler called after her but she ignored her and took her right path, battling with stems and branches on the way."Fuck!" She cursed as she propped deeper." Hey! Eleanor! Wait!" Skyler called again and pursued her.Eleanor stopped suddenly when she realized that there might not be a path toward where she was taking. It almost looked as though she was walking even deeper into the woods.What was really happening?"Eleanor, wait!" Skyler repeated, almost closer now.The sun was slowly coming out and Eleanor felt more miserable. She felt even weak inside as she was starting to get hungry and we'll, thirsty
"Oliver?" Syler and Eleanor chorused his name in unison. They both couldn't believe their eyes.Who would have thought that Oliver would be so deep in the forest? Though Skyler knew Oliver might have gone after Scarlett, she still couldn't believe she could see at such a place and not even at such a time.Shock married Oliver's face as he regarded them for a moment as if fighting within himself if what he was seeing was right. Perhaps, he was just hallucinating.He left his mother and Eleanor at home, in the city. But how come she was in the woods at such a time?That aside, Oliver couldn't help but notice that Eleanor was only in a night robe. Was she coming over to that town in a robe? It was even weirder. And there was no fucking way that her mother would be in the rural area. She wanted to stay back and didn't even want Oliver to leave. Besides, she was supposed to stay back because of the pack. Without hesitation, while Oliver was still, Eleanor flew into Oliver's arms. She pus
Oliver watched them for a moment, as they both tried to free themselves and he couldn't take it any longer."Enough!" He screamed at once and the intensity of his voice forced the two girls to pull aside from each other Though, there were still signs that showed they wanted to continue the fight."Why are you fighting?" Oliver yelled again as he couldn't even take it again. He was there worrying about everything but they were fighting.Skyler was more than shocked but glad that her son got the situation undercover.Meanwhile, Leia was still worried about the mark she saw on Eleanor. She couldn't get the picture off her head as she tried to rack her brain on where she had seen the mark.Oliver let out a sigh and turned to look at Skyler again. Eleanor meanwhile was busy throwing daggers at Leia. Leia didn't have her time anyways."But mom, what are you doing in such a dangerous place? And is dad back at home?"Skyler sighed, unable to decide on how to start her story. She barely looke
"I did it!' Oliver yelled in excitement. "Wow! Great!" Leia smiled at him. "You did great!" She complimented, with an encouraging smile.Oliver pulled her into a deep hug, "I did it. I did it, thanks to you Leia. Thank you!" He stroked her back slightly, with a big smile plastered across his face.Leia nodded, proud of her mate. "You did great! I told you we can do it!"Oliver nodded quickly and pulled away from her. There was still a wide smile on his lips.Skyler stared at them in great surprise and awe. There was a smile on her face, a feeling of pride for her son. Her son could still use his power despite all these years of getting locked up. It was exciting and surprising as well.She suddenly had a change of mind. She wanted them to use their power. She wouldn't stop them again. Enough of hiding and seeking. It was time to showcase their talent.She was more than happy that Oliver was on the right track. She just hoped that nothing would stop Scarlett from doing that as well. S
Chapter 69Scarlett opened her eyes slowly and looked over at sleeping Lan. His arms were wrapped around her in secure ways which were preventing her from moving around.She felt saved anyways and secured in his arms.She watched him for a moment, admiring the nice carved cheekbones and how silently he snores. He was very handsome too.Everything seemed to have happened so fast before she could even blink her eyes. But what matters was that her mate was beside her and didn't want to let her go.She wasn't going to leave him anyways, she had no plan to.Scarlett snuggled closer, feeling the heat that their closeness brought. She was almost naked now and would have been so cold if it wasn't for the fact that she was hugging his chest.But she had a lot of things on her mind. And most especially, she wanted to eat something. She pulled away from Lan and drew the blanket closer to him.She looked at him again, admiring how handsome he looked while asleep. The breeze blew in through the w
Chapter 70Scarlett stood by the doorway and regarded Lan for a moment. Lan was still deep in sleep and was pulling the pillow so close to himself. Maybe he later discovered that Scarlett wasn't beside him or he hasn't, that she doesn't know.But his action brought a smile to her lips. Scarlett moved closer and climbed onto the bed, beside him. She arched her left hand and used it to support her head as she continued to look at the handsome face of her mate. A soft smile danced on her radiant face as she stared at his pale sleepy face.There was a slight smile on his face as he pulled harder at the pillow. Scarlett chuckled slightly. "You are so cute," she poutedShe contemplated pulling the pillow away and replacing its position but decided against it quickly. She still wanted to continue watching him.Scarlett pulled at his cheek slowly and Lan murmured something underneath his breath.He shifted in his sleep and some strands of hair fell over his face. Scarlett reached for the ha
Chapter 71Scarlett felt so excited about the whole thing that she couldn't help but leap up with joy at intervals.Lan couldn't help but notice how happy she was. "You are so excited," he observed with a smile on his lips.Scarlett looked up at Lan. "Of course! I'm excited, do you think we should run?" She proposed.Lan laughed. " You think? No! That's not really good enough," he laughed again. Scarlett has never been so excited. " Fine! I will hop!" Scarlett announced suddenly and started hopping. She almost tripped but Lan was fast enough to pull her back. He held her close to his chest so that he could hear the mad beating of his heart.Excitement filled with heat in her and she laughed. "I can't wait to meet them, sincerely. I've missed Oliver so much."Lan nodded and kisses her on the forehead. "I know, I'm sure by now, even the trees know how excited you are."" Really?" Scarlett asked in amazement. " Does it show that much?"Lan chuckled and pulled back her hair, then licked
Chapter 92Meera could not believe what was happening in front of her. She had been watching the little play that she found amusing, she had to give it to them that the wolves indeed had a flair for the dramatic. The way they were all standing and looking like they had just received the biggest shock of their lives amused her to no end. It was almost as if they still thought they would be able to save her and even if they thought they did, it was just something that made her laugh even more. Scarlett had been destined for death the moment she had been captured by Meera and she had been smiling just a few minutes ago at the amount of pain that she was causing the wolves to feel.Then the Oliver boy had done something, she felt the thrum of magic from him and her heart lurched as she realized that she had made a very big mistake. She thought Scarlett was one of a kind, the only wolf with a special ability and even though she had been seeing Oliver around he even tried to attack her beca
The head of hades saw that they were indeed taking their time to consider what their options might be. He was here, waiting, while they discussed if he was trustworthy or not. He felt he had made the right choice by changing his appearance, if he had appeared to them as his normal self then they would have never even looked at him twice talking less of considering what he was proposing. He got the feeling that they were also the recipients of one of Meera's bad actions, from what he heard she had kidnapped the daughter of these wolves and that was something that he did not understand. Why would Meera be interested in the daughter of some wolves, it must mean that there was something else that he was not seeing here. There must be something about the girl that Meera felt interesting, and to be sincere, he only knew one thing that would make Meera even stress herself to abduct the daughter of two alpha wolves.There was something different about these wolves though, the boy that was st
Scarlett woke up to find Meera staring at her. Eleanor was not in the room and she didn't even realize that she had been so tired. The ordeal she has passed through these past few days made her feel like she was made of concrete and everywhere ached in her. She wasn't even sure what was what anymore, her leg felt numb, and the fact that she didn't sense Meera's presence when she came back in meant that she was also tired mentally too. She felt even more exhausted after the small chat she had with Oliver and the fact that she slept on the floor wasn't helping either, and now she had to deal with Meera looking at her like she was some unsatisfactory product.Meera already knew what she was there for. She had come to pacify Eleanor a bit and the little witch had asked for some permission to go out. She wanted to go to a mall. Meera sent her out with two guards, she was the ruler of the court of hades now so she had them at her beck and call, and she hoped that Eleanor would take an inter
Scarlett had just heard something that she considered unbelievable. She was sure that something was off because Meera just called herself someone's grandmother. She had actually been thinking that Meera was Eleanor's mother, all the acts of love and the fact that Meera looked so young, too young to be anyone's grandmother if she was being sincere, she could see that something might have happened at the court they went to. Eleanor seemed impatient for the power that she was promised to her and Meera also looked like she had a major headache and she didn't have the time to tolerate whatever insolence Eleanor might want to display.She also made a very shocking revelation right now, she was a grandmother but yet she looked like someone in her early thirties, a very young face and aura emanated off her and Scarlett could tell that wasn't normal. It was something to make yourself look young but Scarlett doubted that was what Meera was doing.She must have stolen someone's body. Meera was a
At the moment some issues were transpiring in the pack house. Jay and Skyler seemed to have gotten into a big fight and they were busy arguing with one another.Jay kept on insisting that Skyler return to the city to oversee the affairs of the huge pack house and businesses they had there. It would be unreasonable for the both of them to abandon the affairs of the pack for so long, but Skyler was adamant. She swore never to return until she saw her daughter again. She could not even believe that Jay was asking her to abandon the whole matter and go back to the city. She knew that what Jay was saying would be the right thing to do, the pack was as much as a family would ever be to them. They were the leaders of the pack and they needed to be there for the pack but she was not going to abandon her family again.While they were in the midst of their arguments, Oliver ran to them panting. He had left the room for some fresh breath earlier and now this."What is the matter?" both Jay and S
The rest of the pack including Ian finally arrived at the pack house, the heavy atmosphere that they carried along with them was evident in the way they all sat with their head bowed and lost in thought.Oliver could not believe what had just happened, he felt guilty for thinking that Meera wasn't a threat and that Scarlett would be safe no matter what happened, to him, all that was going on wasn't just fair. First Scarlet got tortured in front of them and she gets taken to heaven knows where after that. He felt they should have attacked Meera all at a go the minute that she dared to work her foul magic on Scarlett and that was something that he resented not doing.Leia sensing his anger tried to touch him so he could calm down but he yanked his hand away and went to a corner of the room and he started pacing."Are you really going to act like this?" Leia asked, looking at him and for the first time, she saw anger in Oliver's eyes. It was not like she hadn't seen him angry before, jus
Chapter 85Eleanor could feel the anger in Meera's voice as she told her of their history. So she was a wolf, after all, just an omega that the alphas always looked down upon.Eleanor could see why Meera seemed to always get angry when it comes to anything that has to do with the alphas. Even when she was talking to Scarlett earlier, there was a tone of hate in her voice and now she could see exactly why Meera was always so bitter. She was smiling now though and Eleanor could tell that this story was going to reveal what had brought them here as witches.Meera was already getting lost in the tale that she was telling and there seemed to be a rapturous look on her face."Whenever the alphas tried to push us down, we would leave, and then we would start somewhere else. Your ancestors were very ambitious people, they wanted to become greater than they were, they wanted to stop being seen as weak, and they wanted power too but then the alphas never allowed that, they always did what they
Chapter 84The elder could feel a bit of his power return as he came in contact with the crystal. It was only a fragment of the power though and he could already see that someone had been there. The place looked so lonely and deserted, a wall had already crumbled and the room was badly exposed to the harsh elements of this realm, he could also see that someone had definitely gotten to the crystal and it was just a matter of time before that person would be revealed. The crystal was an object of immense power and while it could not be handled by just anybody, there was certainly someone who knew about it and who dared to come to take it, they even braved the journey to do this act and thereby put the world off balance.The elder weighed his options and he wondered who this mystery person might be. He was just about to leave when he turned and saw a mirror, lying discarded on the ground and almost as pale and as broken as the other things. Because of the magic of the crystal, there was
Meera could see Scarlett looking at Eleanor and she felt anger rise in her. Eleanor would soon become a powerful witch, she was already a very powerful witch and so there was some sort of respect that should be accorded to her. Scarlett was now a prisoner and even though she was an alpha, she was still a prisoner. Meera saw the look on Scarlett's face and mistook it for the pride that the alpha wolves usually carried around. She should be scared and cowering before them, not just sitting and looking at Eleanor blankly in the face.Eleanor noticed that something like anger had overcome Meera's features, she could see that she was very angry and it was no doubt because of the insolence that Scarlett was displaying by looking at her straight in the eyes, she also felt some sort of pride already at the fact that Meera was basically treating her like a queen. There was something about the way Scarlett was looking at her that unnerved her and she wanted to scream at that look. This was th
