Katrina instantaneously ducked behind the tree so she won't be either seen or caught, she was still panicking and astonished by what she just saw!
Her lover is deeply kissing her stepsister!
Lucien and Sienna have a 'thing' together!
An intense migraine attacked Katrina's brain, and she quickly clutched her head at the rebellious pains which inflicted havoc as she was severely recalling her nightmares again...
"Baby, I can't wait for you to finally make me yours forever," Sienna let out in a flirting tone, she was roaming her hands on Lucien's stony chest in a seductive manner.
Right now, anyone who happens to see them this way could notice they were deeply in love with each other and the air hovering around them is filled with devotion and warmth.
"I know you can no longer wait but you have to, my love. I assure you that very soon all this will be over!" Lucien whispers to her face, leaning closer to her face and he kisses her lips lingeringly.
"Are you sure about that?" Sienna faked a pout. " I mean are you sure you are not gonna leave me when my silly sister makes you the Alpha!" She cursed.
"No, I'm not gonna leave you at all. You are always mine. And by the time I'm done with Katrina by being the Alpha of this great pack, I will destroy her and make you my luna instead!" Lucien said to her with a tone of authority.
Katrina felt her heart break into pieces at what she heard and her body shook with emotion; Lucien rawly meant every word of his that he had ascertained to her stepsister!
"Kiss me one more time," Sienna demands sexily as she snuggled closer to him "Kiss me like you never did before," she giggled and Lucien smashed his lips vigorously on hers.
Sienna sigh's in relaxation as their tongues danced together, their breath becoming erratic and uneven —filled with lust and desire.
Meanwhile, Katrina was still watching the love birds in the woods while she was undergoing harsh pain in her head...
A violent pain struck her head once that she nearly screamed as she shut her eyes, memories of the nightmare began to come back to her head —bloody appearances of how she was deceived, betrayed, and how she was mercilessly murdered by the people she deeply cared for became fresh in her brain!
What a wicked world!
It took an eternity before Katrina could recuperate herself, she was gasping and panting. She had traveled to hell and come back —it eventually dawned on her that she was... Reborn!
There's no doubt about that! She was indeed rebirthed.
A deadly glare crept onto Katrina's countenance as she snap her head again at her backstabbers, her hands making a few cracking sounds she watched Lucien and Sienna clinging onto each other, kissing and murmuring sweet words to each other without having the inkling that someone was staring at them in the woods!
"Bastards!" Katrina growls under her breath, her hands now tightly clenched as she felt the impulse to flounce towards them like the storm and kill them both immediately!
They betrayed her!
They crossed her!
They make a mockery of her!
However, Katrina restricted herself as silver eyes rocked dark with anger and resentment!
In deep annoyance Katrina veered around and ran back home, she wouldn't want her stepmother to notice her absence in the house.
But while on her way home, Katrina's mind was filled with thoughts about what happened earlier between her lover and her stepsister. She was also feeling disturbed about the nightmares and their meaning.
Could she be indeed reborn? She ponders difficulty.
The only thing she could comprehend right is about that voice that has been telling her about her being given a second chance at life...
*Don't misuse this second chance..." The voice had also said to her.
Katrina tightly closed her silver eyes as she recalled the bloodthirsty nightmares, Lucian secretly ditching her for her stepsister, and all this way apparent that she was reborn to deal with them!
"I can't wait to kill them both, I will make them pay for betraying me!" Katrina gnarled as she ruffled her hair in frustration.
"But why wasn't my wolf reborn with me?" Katrina thought as she inwardly realized that she wasn't reborn with her wolf!
And this made her extremely upset deep inside of her; she was unjustly dealt with by everyone and now her wolf's gone forever!
Katrina was lost in deep thought right now while she walks home, the mate-matching ceremony had crept up in her head and she could vividly recollect in her nightmare that she had announced that she must marry Lucien as her mate and further sealed the mate bond with him!
Darkmoon pack is one of the highest and most reputable, strongest and toughest packs; the Alpha rulers ain't choosing by bloodline or whatsoever.
One can only be an Alpha king when he or she has the highest and outstanding votes from the pack members!
However, Katrina's father can not be made the next alpha since he was hated and despised by the pack members of her mother's pack. So Katrina being the only biological child of her deceased mother has the sole right to partake in the Alpha election ceremony.
Katrina also recalled that she stopped attending the Alpha election ceremony in her mother's pack, and she went to the extreme of advising the pack members to vote for Lucien!
Her stepmother and stepsister didn't stop her, they freely allowed her to do as she wished simply because they knew that the consequence and effect would magnificently profit them all!
Lucien wants her to make him the next Alpha, then dump her later on and make his stepsister his mate and luna of the Darkmoon pack!
They took advantage of her!
They meddle with her in the nastiest way!
Katrina bites her bottom lips until she tasted the metallic blood in her mouth, fidgeting her fingers as a storm of adrenaline heats through her skin, burning her violently.
Her silver eyeballs turn dark as they search vehemently on the ground as if exploring for a lost gem —revenge.
"I can't let them win this time!" Katrina mutters as she is now placing both hands on her core. "I have to do something!" Her silver eyes grew dark.
Yes! I just know exactly what to do to bring them down to their knees!
I will give them a counterattack they'd never expect from me!
They may think I'm weak and useless, but I will make them feel the wrath of the anger they inflicted on me!
A few days later, the mate-matching ceremony arrived in the Darkmoon pack and the entire pack members were bustling as a result of this occasion. Lucien who was just leaving his abode was dressed in his best royal garments, his hair was perfectly styled and his face glistened as he left Katrina's home. His hands were bridged behind his back, his chest bulging out in a powerful posture as a tricky smirk paced on his lips —the very thought of him becoming the next Alpha of the pack gladdens his heart!Reaching Katrina's home, he penetrated the living room and he met her waddling down the stairs all dressed up for the mate-matching ceremony. "Lucien!" Katrina beamed when she saw him and she moved closer to him "How do I look in this pink gown?" She asked excitedly as she whirled around for him to see. "Yo...you look great, Katrina!" Lucien compliments her, but his eyes were staring upstairs. Katrina stopped whirling around in the living room when she caught sight of Lucien ogling at
Mate! Katrina was taken aback, her eyes dilated as she peered her eyes into the dark. She could vaguely see the man. Katrina was shocked that she has a mate, a true mate that she would claim her own. However, she doesn't want a mate this time; all she desires is revenge! Because of this Katrina doesn't want to take a step forward to meet her mate, she was not inquisitive or enthusiastic to welcome him. Mate! Ava howls desperately, gnawing her nails into Katrina's brain and inciting her to go ahead into the dark. The more Katrina goes forth into the dark, her heart pounds faster than normal as adrenaline surges through her skin —She could also feel her mate coming closer to me too, his dark presence overly dominated her. Mate! Ava calls on once more, her eyes dimming as she awaits impatiently for her mate. She was more exhilarated to meet her mate than Katrina; it's the wolf’s nature. The air was filled with suspense and intensity. Katrina couldn't get rid of her wolf instincts
Katrina looked up at Logan and looked away again without responding to his questions. She saw Lucien standing at the other side too, but just face the floor, and not wanting to do anything."I won't accept that, so since you really can't tell me why you don't want a mate, then I know what to do." Logan said, and started walking closer to her, while she just kept staring at the floor,with fear written all over her.Logan just carried her up onto his shoulder, and started walking back to the party which was going on. While Lucien just stood still as he watched Logan take Katrina away. He also decided to follow behind them, and see how everything will end up.They all arrived at the party and Logan dropped Katrina from his shoulder, as she stood in the crowd again, with everyone staring at them. Everyone was still surprised by what had happened earlier, the way Katrina had rejected Lucien and had run away, and now they were also wondering who it was that had brought her back again to the
Katrina and the head chief took a few steps away from where Alpha Logan was standing. And stopped as the head chief turned to Katrina fully. "I and the other council members have thought about this, your mate, and we have decided that Alpha Logan is good for you." The head of chief said, and Katrina looked up at him."I know you are surprised why we have accepted Alpha Logan as your mate, but it's for the best." The head of chief said, and pulsed again,as he glanced at Katrina and then he continued."Alpha Logan is a strong man, and is someone like that, we need to be your mate, because he would really do well in protecting the people against any attack, and that would also bring peace between our pack and his own pack." The head of chief explained. And Katrina actually saw some sense in what he had just said,"Ok then if you think that is good, then there is no problem about that." Katrina told him."All those things we actually enjoyed in his rule as your mate and that is why we ac
Alpha Logan walked Katrina into the crowd as he finally stood in front of his people with his hands on Katrina's hand. There was actually noise coming from the crowd before but immediately he stepped in front of them, the noise quickly died down immediately. They were not waiting for their Alpha to do what he wanted to do, that made him invite all of them to his house. Alpha Logan glanced around the crowd, and cleared his throat immediately, as he got ready to speak up."Good day everyone, and as you all know, I have called for this meeting here today for a reason." He pulsed as he tried to catch his breath,as all eyes were fixed at him. And all ears open to listen to what he had to say."Well the main reason I have actually invited you all here today, is nothing else but because I want to introduce someone to you all." He said, and he could see the eyes that were fixed on him, from the crowd. So he decided to continue with his speech."Besides me here is a lady, and do you know who
Katrina eyed her bags silently, willing them to become smaller so she could lift them. If only things worked that way."I'm busy, but I will be done within a few minutes." The guard replied.Katrina just smiled at the guards. She waited patiently for them to be done with what they were doing. But not quite long they approached her. They had received her message and they had no other choice than to do it, because she had mentioned Alpha Logan's name to them.Katrina would have carried it herself but it was just too heavy and there were two of them.She watched with awe as The guard lifted the bags like they weighed nothing and walked down the hall.Katrina picked up her jaw from the floor and followed them marvelling at the house as they walked down the hall.It was obviously huge from what she could see. It had several rooms and looked like a castle from the Victorian era. She would never say that aloud though not even if her mate held a gun to her head.They climbed a flight of stai
Katrina walked on as she thought of heading to the dining room. But she doesn't really know her way there, and she would need to be directed on how to get there. She was actually the one in front while Alpha Logan is behind her, so she really needs to stop walking,so she could ask Alpha Logan to lead the way, since he was the one that knows where they were heading.Katrina took a deep breath, as she thought of how she was going to start up the conversation with Alpha Logan. Honestly it was really so very difficult for her, because she had planned not to talk to him until they finally got to the dining room. She was wanting to remain calm, but now she doesn't have a choice than to start up a conversation. She immediately stopped walking and shut her eyes as she thought of a way to talk to Alpha Logan. She was still standing with her eyes shut when she heard his voice."What are you doing? and why did you stop walking?" Hearing that question she knew it was time for her to speak up, s
Katrina remained in her bed as her mind ran through different thoughts, just then her mind went over to her pack again. She remembered her people, and felt like going back to her pack immediately, but she knew that was impossible, because she had just gotten her about a few hours ago.She can't even think of telling Alpha Logan that she felt like going back to her pack for a few days, because that would definitely mean trouble for her, so she really can't risk it. And also she doesn't really like to stand in front of Alpha Logan, because she sees him as someone that doesn't really care about her, and he is also very mean.Going to stand in front of him was actually the last thing that she could ever think of doing right now, to her she has had enough of everything and she doesn't really want more right now. She thought and sighed softly as she turned over to the other side of her bed."Is there a way that I could run out of the pack without him noticing?" She asked no one in particula
After listening to the maid, the Alpha thanks her and allows her to leave his room. He thinks of how the maid tossed the food Cecilia had brought over for him. He now understood why.After hearing Cecilia's lies about not seeing Katrina, the maid feared that she had come along with something dangerous to harm Alpha Logan. That's why she fell on Cecilia.With this information, Alpha Logan decided to confront Cecilia about why she lied to him that she didn't see Katrina.He also began to think of everything he has heard, most especially from Katrina. Alpha Logan is now suspicious of Cecilia..As the sky grew darker and darker, Cecilia, who's at home sitting in her living room, desperation grew more and more.She has failed to carry out her first plan, so she carried out plan B. She's waiting for the result to arrive.Where she was, Cecilia heard a Knock on her door. She smiled, got up and rushed to the door to answer it.As soon as she opens the door, Cecilia is shocked to find Alpha L
"They just arrived not quite long and said they couldn't find Luna. So I came here to inform you Alpha," The maid said, bowing her head down at Alpha Logan.The Alpha feels hurt hearing this. He hummed at the maid and thanked her for the information. "You can leave," Alpha Logan ordered the maid.The maid bowed, took a look at Cecilia once more, before she left there. Cecilia paid no attention to the maid. She had her focus on Alpha Logan.As soon as the maid left, Cecilia got up on her feet. She walked up to meet Alpha Logan. Her mind on how to execute her plan.Alpha Logan had his mind on Katrina. His heart aches learning that Katrina wasn't found. "Did she really leave me for someone else? But why Katrina? Why will you leave me for no good reason? This just doesn't make any sense?" Alpha Logan wondered. Still finding this strange.He suddenly feels Cecilia's arms around him. Holding him from behind comfortably. Alpha Logan doesn't feel right with the way Cecilia held him from behin
Katrina feels disgusted on hearing Cecilia call Alpha Logan has. She gets angry and tells Cecilia that she can't take her Alpha Logan.Cecilia scoffed at Katrina. With the Vampire Lord's hands on her shoulder, she proudly touched her lover's hands and continued to speak to Katrina."You fail to see that I've already taken your place ex Luna. Once the Alpha learns you ran away with someone else, he'll feel devastated. I'll chip in to calm him and slowly... I'll take your place," Cecilia explained to Katrina."Don't think that I love that foolish wolf of yours. I'm only after the throne. Once I'm Luna again, I'll get rid of Alpha Logan and pace way for my lovely Lord here, to rule the werewolf pack," Cecilia shared with Katrina.Katrina is stunned to learn this terrible plan of Cecilia's. She groaned and tells her she won't get away with it.The Vampire Lord laughed at Katrina and said, "We've already gotten away with it." With a wave of a hand from the Vampire Lord, a Vampire grabbed K
Going deeper into the forest, Cecilia manages to get far away from the werewolf pack and to a more silent and werewolf free area.She stands beside a tree and whistles out into the air. Katrina, who has been following her all these while, sees Cecilia standing beside a tree, whistling out into the air.She assumed that Cecilia was contacting or signaling someone. But who could she be reaching out to?Just as she suspected, Katrina sees a bat flying towards Cecilia. The bat immediately transformed into the Vampire Lord. Katrina is shocked."The Vampire Lord. That's Cecilia's mate," Katrina remembered.She remembered the first time she laid her eyes on Katrina and the lies she told to her as well as Alpha Logan."I knew something was fishy about her. All these time she's been lying to us. The Vampire Lord never left her. He has been with her all these while," Katrina viewed.Hiding behind a tree, Katrina sees Cecilia and the Vampire Lord kissing each other. She groaned at this act from
Katrina heads back to her home quietly and carefully. She quickly got changed and laid beside Alpha Logan on the bed. The moment she did that, the Alpha turned and placed his arm around her.Katrina felt relieved that she made it home before Alpha Logan woke up to realize she was gone.Now that she has seen the fellow in the cell and heard from him, Katrina is now sure that Cecilia's coming to the back is not for good, but she's up to something."I need proof to show that Cecilia isn't good. But how do I go about this?" Katrina wondered. She needs a plan to get Cecilia expose..The next morning came. Luna is in the dinning room having her dinner. Her mind is still on Cecilia, thinking of what she can do to get her trapped.She's immediately brought out of her thoughts by the Alpha himself. He touched Katrina and wondered why she was lost. Katrina tells him it's nothing.Alpha Logan says Katrina is still thinking about Cecilia and the old lady that's gone. He tells her to try and be s
Katrina couldn't tell if Cecilia was involved or not. But from what the physician just told her, it's clear that someone did something to him, but who?The physician wondered if he had anything that day before starting the work. Katrina hummed and assumed the same.She didn't want the physician thinking too much about it, because it was stressing him out. "Maybe you had something that day but didn't remember. It's okay. At least the burial ceremony is over. Don't overwork yourself," Katrina said to the Physician.The physician had to agree with Katrina. He thanked her for the conversation. Putting on a smile at once.Katrina advised him to go and talk with other people, but not to talk about the autopsy. She said it'll only stress his brain ahead."You know there are some things that are hard to understand in this life. So one just has to put them aside first," Katrina said.Again, the physician agreed with Katrina. He thanks her once again, before heading to meet other guests to talk
"I couldn't help but overhear you say something. I'm sorry for eavesdropping on you," Katrina apologized to the old man.But the old man wasn't offended at all. He smiled and told Katrina that he doesn't have any issue with her.Seeing that everything is good, Katrina took a glance at Cecilia before landing her gaze back on the old man.Katrina asked the old man about last night. "You said something last night at Cecilia's place," Katrina asked."Yes my Luna. Last night, I heard a disturbing noise from Cecilia's home. Seems she was having some kind of argument with the old lady," The old man revealed.Katrina is stunned to hear this. She felt like looking at Cecilia, but she didn't. She didn't want her knowing that she's talking about her."Like an argument? Was last night the first time you were hearing the noise?" She asked once more.Katrina slowly felt her past detest for Cecilia slowly rising. But she needed to be sure of what was happening before jumping into any conclusion."No
Back at Alpha Logan's home, Katrina and Cecilia sat together in the dining room. They both had a glass of water before them, as they sat quietly.Katrina had managed to calm the sad and worried Cecilia. The ex mate had shed crocodile tears before Luna, requesting to go out and find the old lady as well. Katrina just told her to trust Alpha Logan."She'll be fine, trust us. Alpha Logan will find her," Katrina assured Cecilia.Cecilia sniffed, wiping her tears from her face. "I do trust you and Alpha Logan. She'll be found. I need to stay strong," Cecilia said, putting on a light smile.Katrina feels better seeing the smile on Cecilia's face. She hoped Alpha Logan is able to find the old lady. "He found her the other time when she went missing. I'm sure he'll find her again," She reasoned. Taking a sip from her glass.Cecilia, who slowly lifted her glass of water to her lips, glared at Katrina, who didn't even see her."Just look at her. Does she think I'm a weakling or a baby? Anyways,
With the Vampire Lord gone, Cecilia needed to get herself into drama. She never expected the old lady to wake and find her with the Vampire Lord. "I'm glad he handled her well. I'll just stay here and act like I know nothing," Cecilia decided. She went over to her home entrance, closed the door shut and went to bed. She got into her bed and happily went off to sleep. The next morning came. Alpha Logan and Katrina were busy having their breakfast together. The Alpha is planning on visiting Katrina's pack with Luna. There's work he wants to attend to, and he feels Katrina should come along too. When he told Katrina about it before their breakfast, Luna happily agreed to follow him. It's been a long time since she went to her place. "That'll be nice," She had said to Alpha Logan. While eating, a guard came in to see both Alpha Logan and Katrina. He didn't want to interrupt their dinner, which is a sign of disrespect, but he has no choice. "Alpha and Luna, I'm sorry for the disturba
