Abigail's pov"So... you and my brother huh!?" I smiled mischievously at Athena as she dressed some wounds on my arm and face. Turns out my sonic scream has some effect on my healing factor and overall strength. It took alot for me to use it and despite the fact that Athena had been teaching me for a while now, I was still yet to get the hang of it. It drains me... literally."Stay still." Athena muttered, not even finding a bit of humor in any of this. Grumpy much?"Are you really mad at me right now?" I asked through our mind link, making her stop what she was doing for a moment before continuing, totally ignoring my question.She continued dressing my wounds in silence for a while. When she was finally done, she packed up the med kit, putting it in its proper place."You can't let Mark know about what just happened to you." She said as she came to sit beside me on the bed. I gave her a questioning look. Not like I was really gonna go running to Mark, but that's a really odd request
Abigail's POV"Just play it cool." Athena whispered to me as we approached the giant doors of the dining hall. We could hear some classic instrumentals playing softly and an obnoxious, feminine laughter. I winced to myself.Finally adjusting my high slit gown, I sauntered past the guards at the door, following behind Cara. Athena was right behind me, nudging me ever so slightly in a bid to calm me down. Not like I was the one with wracking nerves.I was surprised to see only two people at the table, Mark and our so called 'guest', making me both somewhat relieved and worried. I briefly looked at Athena in confusion and she just shrugged. How close was Mark to this Jaguar? Looks like some informal dinner to me. I should have just worn my pyjamas."Ahem! I apologize on the behalf of my sister and her friends here. They were supposed to be here before you." Mark said, looking pointedly at us.We gave each other sheepish glances before finally taking our seats."Oh it's fine, the most im
Abigail's pov"You're not relaxed enough, Abby." Fernando, my brother called out to me as I tried for the umpteenth time to break a wooden, makeshift barrier in front of me, with my scream.Athena had talked me into letting my brother train me on how to use my ability. She had stated that Fernando was not really a threat..at least not anymore. Wouldn't still be so trusting around him, but I'm really desperate to know how to use my scream. I need to be ready for Zina when she comes. I need to be ready for my father when he comes.We were currently in a remote location in the woods. Just me, Athena and my brother. I had been yelling out my stomach to a large piece of wood for hours now, without results. Nothing at all, and I was starting to get really pissed.It didn't help that Fernando stood just a few feet away, giving out the same set of instructions, over and over again. Athena sat on a tree branch above, reading a damn novel and munching on apples. They weren't helping at all. Non
Abigail's povThe dimly lit cell provided solace to my equally dark soul. I had lost track of time as I sat in a fetal position for what felt like days. Rotten plates of food and drinks lay in front of my cell, adding to the already offensive odour in here. I was least worried about that. It was just perfect...how I remember it.My toes were numb from being too long on the cold, hard floor. My mouth had a sour taste from not brushing for days. My head hung low in shame and defeat. My whole life has been a lie. Maria isn't real. I let out a bitter laughter.The other cells in the dungeon were empty. Not like it would be ideal to leave any inmate in here with me. Even Cara and Athena would get frightened and run away when I open my mouth to fake a scream. It hurt, but it's probably for the better that they learn to stay away from monsters like me.Apparently, Fernando didn't die. He was currently alive and fully healed from my assault...or attempted murder. Athena claimed to not hold a
Abigail's pov"She what?!" Athena shrieked yet again, startling the hell out me. Hell! Even Cherie jumped up in fear. The poor creature might have a heart attack at this rate."Keep it down you two. I'm shaving my lady part and I'd really hate to cut myself." Cara yelled from the bathroom. I rolled my eyes."Yeah, we really needed to know that." Athena sassed."Deal with it!" Cara yelled again."Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Athena asked me, making me let out a sigh."Going ahead to tell my friend that I was asked to capture her newly found mate. Totally a good idea!" I replied sarcastically."Of course! It would have given us opportunity to prepare for what's coming. You should have told me." She whined."I'm sorry." I told Athena, honestly. She paused to look at me like I've grown two heads. What?!"Did you just apologize?" She asked in surprise. I glared at her."No." I answered, turning away from her."Liar! You just apologized." Athena insisted. Bet she's not willing to let t
Abigail's pov"What the actual fuck?!" Athena's loud voice jerked me and Mark up from our sleep. I was standing in an instant, looking around frantically for the source of the disturbance.Mark lazily rubbed his eyes and grumbled incoherently before his mind finally registered what was going on. His nose flared in annoyance as he regarded his still shocked looking sister."What are you still here for?" He growled at her, making her flinch. I also turned to look at him."What? Oh...I ...uh.." Athena stuttered."Speak sister!" Mark's voice seemed to have shook her off this time."Cara is down in the dungeon with the human intruder." She said in a rushed manner, trying very hard to keep a straight face. She turned her face slightly, using her hair to cover the blush on her cheeks."What?" Mark asked, slowly getting out of bed to put on his pants."So..um. remember how she said something about you smelling nice earlier?" Athena tried to explain."He's her mate." Mark said, finally putting
Athena's POV....*Flashback*I looked on in awe as Mark's large wolf form lunged at Benard, biting him on the shoulder. Bernard let out a loud roar of pains, throwing Mark off him very roughly before shifting into his equally dark furred wolf. There was literally no difference between them as they had both coincidentally attained the red eye status tonight."Ssshh... Have some rest now." I whispered to a barely conscious Abigail in my arms as she finally closed her eyes. She was already weak from having to take on a bloodlusted alpha all by herself. Thankfully, she now has a new Alpha on her side, Cara.Mark and Benard threw each other around the arena, biting, scratching and breaking bones. They were really terrifying, exuding so much dominance that had many wolves around subconsciously cowering in submission. It was a battle of supremacy between two red eyed Alphas, at least that's what it looked like."Little Raven." Niolba's voice echoed in my head, taking my eyes of the fight
Abigail's POVI smiled as I heard pitter patters of little feet running around the living room and knocking various objects down. That little pup sure is a handful.I was in the kitchen, making lunch so he could eat and then I'll take him to the shower. He just came back from school but still seemed to have so much energy... just like his father."Keep it down, honey!" I called out to him, eliciting even more laughter. I sighed."Jordan?! Don't let me come out there." I called out again to my very playful son."Peekaboo mommy!" He shouted, running into hiding. Ugh! What will I do with this boy?Quickly rinsing my hands under running water from the faucet. I dried them with a napkin, stopping momentarily to admire the beautiful wedding ring on my finger. Can't wait for my husband to be home. A strange feeling washed over me as I looked at my right hand. It wasn't made of metal. It wasn't bionic. It was real flesh and bones. I shook of the weird feeling, untying my apron. I then hung t
You deceived me!" Benard snarled at the approaching warlock, Okiro. He was bound in heavy, enchanted chains, his arms spread out on the wall."Don't be ridiculous, Benard! You wanted power and that's what I'm giving you." Okiro casually said to the seething Benard."Power? I barely escaped with my life. The White wolf could have ended me right then and there." Benard hissed again."But he didn't." Okiro deadpanned.Benard looked down at his wounds that were slowly healing. Deep gashes and cuts that were seeping out dark blood. His organs would have easily been ripped out. He began to realize just how strong his opponent was...not like he didn't know before, it just became clearer."I want to be able to kill him." He said with gritted teeth."Patience, Alpha boy! The White wolf is not just any wolf. He taps power from a long, ancestral chain. Eventually, you'll defeat him but you must be patient." Okiro informed him."You were able to get some venom into his system, right?" He asked,
Abigail's povMy vision was blurred with tears and the noises of commotion around me seemed to be fading away, as I knelt down behind White's badly injured body. His wounds didn't seem to be healing and he looked to be in severe pain. His heartbeat was very weak, due to all the blood loss and there was nothing I could do to help him. Benard somehow got away, badly injured too and some of the North claw wolves went in pursuit of him. He was working for my father, that scumbag. They always want to take away anything or anyone that matters to me. He was sent here to probably kill White and capture me. I seethed.I took in a shaky breath, standing up to my full height. I knew what I had to do. I'll end this nonsense, once and for all. I'll find my way to my monster of a father and kill him myself. He has put everyone through enough already and I wasn't going to hide from him anymore."Hey! Hey! Where do you think you're going?" Athena came to stand on front of me, stopping me from going
Mark's POVI marched alongside fifty of my best Deltas. We were heading towards the Burning woods to get some answers. White wolf or not, there's no way she'd take on all of us that easily.I had three of my Alphas with me, Athena included. Cara wanted to come along, but I gave her a strong disapproval. She was expecting pups and was in no shape to be out on the fighting ground. I would have gone to ask Niolba to tag along, but the dragon hasn't really been himself since his last encounter with Hazel. The last thing I wanted to do was to make him face her again. Not after all those things she said to him."How's she doing?" I asked Athena as she came to walk beside me. I was asking about Cara." Very pissed. She's giving Bruno hell." She said, looking ahead at the direction we were going."We've got bigger things to worry about though." She said, a worried look on her face. I gave her a curious look."You don't think we can take her?" I raised an eyebrow at my sister, earning a scoff
Abigail's povI decided that I've had enough turning and rolling around on my bed, and that's when I decided to get up.I wasn't supposed to be this restless, especially after all the activities that went on today. My muscles were a bit sore and took some of Hazel's pain relieving tea to help me heal. I should be fast asleep by now.I was met with a pair of concerned, glowing red eyes, shining down at my soul in the darkness of the room. White. He was probably feeling my restlessness. I reached out for a small lamp beside my bed, turning it on to get a clearer view of my surroundings...since I don't have glowing eyes like a werewolf. White squinted his eyes to adjust to the sudden brightness and I chuckled at his funny facial expression. His ears perked up at the sound of my laughter and he bent down to lick my face."Eeeww! Stop it, you slobbering creature." I giggled as he attacked me with more licks. A few hours ago, this same creature was in tearing demon wolves apart with his ba
Abigail's povI bit back a groan as I did one final push up, before standing up and wiping the sweat from my forehead. I've spent a couple days here in the Burning woods and I think I was already starting to adapt to the changes.I usually come out here to an open clearing at the back of the cabin, to train and condition my body. I felt like there's just so much to be done and I had to be prepared. The gentle flowing of the little, clear stream nearby seemed to offer a soothing feeling to burdened soul. The rays of the early morning sun, shone down on my skin and I breathed in the fresh scent of flowers. I had been training here all morning...been doing that for the past few days. Although, I wasn't still sure if I wanted to use my scream again just yet. I couldn't explain my reluctance.I was doing some light stretches, when I paused to let out an exasperated sigh. "The both of you can come out now!" I called out to Hazel and White, who had been spying on me from the nearby bushe
Abigail's povThis was my third escape attempt today and Hazel was having some real fun watching me try. She never really did much to stop me, only watching me get more frustrated after every attempt.I gritted my teeth as ran past numerous trees, stumps and boulders. They didn't call this place the Burning woods for nothing; most of the trees were literally burnt.I've always felt like a confrontation with the White wolf wouldn't do me any harm. However in the light of recent events, I don't think I'd even be able to survive his stare. I even just found out it's a male! I know that's not supposed to matter but what if it does? What if he was just keeping me here, so he can kill me himself when I wake up? I mean he really has no reason to want me alive.I finally saw it, the border. The end of my captivity. I quickened my pace, feeling my chest constrict and my breathing get labored. I ignored those discomforts, pushing myself further towards the border. The familiar feeling of my ins
Abigail's povThe tweeting and chirping of forest birds filled my ears. Cool breeze blew against my skin, making me want to sigh in bliss. The soft matress I was resting on offered me so much comfort and I hesitated to open my eyes for a while.The distant sound of falling kitchen utensils suddenly made my eyes fly wide open. I frowned at the unfamiliar surrounding. I was surrounded totally by white colored furnitures, which made me panic at first. I soon realized I was in a gazebo-like structure that was attached to another wooden cabin. No wonder I felt so much air on my skin earlier.The smell of fresh grass filled the air and I greedily took in a deep breath, while admiring the scenery. From the white interiors of the gazebo, to the beautiful trees and flowers surrounding it. My stomach suddenly let out a rumbling sound and I decided to get down from the bed. Where's this place? Why is no one around? Am I dead or something? How did I even get here? All these thoughts attacked my
Abigail's pov"No... please..leave...him alone." I desperately tried to call out to Benard, who was beating the absolute shit out of Mark. He was throwing the Alpha Supreme around like a rag doll, while the latter desperately tried to release himself from Benard's grip. It was a very horrible sight."This certainly didn't go the way you expected." Benard chuckled as he held Mark up by his hair. Mark was in a badly injured state, with broken bones all over. His shoulder also seemed to have been dislocated and he was wincing in pain."Let him go, you bastard." I shouted, feeling hot tears fall down from my eyes. This was a very difficult situation for me. I should have used my scream earlier, even if it would make this whole cave collapse and kill us both. That would have been better than just sitting here and watching Benard kill Mark slowly. I could barely even move. Everything hurt."I'm the one you want. I'm your mate." I cried out to Benard as he leisurely tore through Mark's skin
Abigail's povA look of shock and utter disbelief appeared on Benard's face, as I pushed him towards the entrance of the cave with my scream. He didn't see that coming, none of them did. I smirked at him.Earlier, I had taken care of two, random wolves and the other male, Joe. I knocked Bianca out, deciding it would be best to let Cara handle that bitch herself. It would be such a sight to behold."Now that's what I call a shocker!" Benard let out a dark chuckle, cleaning blood from his ears with his trembling hand. I frowned, expecting him to fall down or something.Another rogue suddenly emerged from nowhere, charging at me. I was too slow to have noticed it earlier, as my full attention was on Benard. He however, seemed to be way ahead of me.In the blink of an eye, he was in front of me, grabbing the wolf and hurling the creature out of the cave. I heard the commotion and fights stop for a while and I looked at Benard with a puzzled expression. He just killed off another of his...
