"That doesn't give him the right to lock me up for days mom!" Arianna blew hot air. "He's your father, learn to obey him""I have been doing just that for the past seventeen years of my life, am not a robot mom, " Arianna dug into her breakfast venting her bottled-up rage on it. "When he comes back home tonight, apologize to him, " Her mom said as she drop her cutlery and stood up from the table. "Oh right, you always take dads side, don't you see am hurt too, am just disappointed in you mom, " Arianna threw her spoon across the table and stood up to leave too. "Arianna, wait! " "Forget it ma, " she walks out on her mom, goes to her room picks up her school bag, and went down the stairs and out to the garage. "Hey Johnson, am ready for school, " Arianna call the home chauffeur who was so busy on the phone with someone. "I will call you back, " he hung up the phone and walk up to her. "Miss Rogue, your dad ask us not to let you take the cars to school, " Johnson said. "What! Bu
*****At The Penthouse****""""""Hey, am here!" they all turn toward the familiar voice. Marek ran to him and gave him a huge hug before anyone but unfortunately, the rest stood awestruck gazing at him. Unlike Dylan who was still wearing old clothes of the last century while Lucian had a nice new pair of black pants and a sleeved shirt. His jet-dark hair was long and silky as usual like that of a female, his face was spotless and his lips were pale red, the natural color of his lips complemented his very white skin. "You look beautiful, " Iyyar finally said. Dylan went towards him and gave him a slight hug but Lucian held him tightly to himself. "I missed you brother," Lucian said. "It is very mutual, " Dylan said. Lucian stroke his hair, and Dylan relax in his arms a bit before he pretentiously pull away. "I'm not a child anymore, " Dylan protested. "Yeah, we were waiting for him to blurt out that," Clarissa said and they all laughed. "let's go have dinner, Clarissa made som
*********Khloe's POV**** #Eight Year's Later. It been years since my dad died and my mom was still missing, no knows her whereabouts. The police were not able to get information of her so they dropped the case just like that, I took up the case, not able to get any clue I started losing hope in finding my mum. Walking down the dark alley that leads to my aunt house in the slum, the place I've lived my eight year's of life, I suddenly felt someone present, even though am use to it now, particularly this night I was not in my best of mood. "Go away," I said to the one lurking behind the shadows. "so, you have come of age," the shadow whispered to me. On my fifteen year birthday I find out the hard way that I can see what humans can not see and this had added to my difficulties in life, I was either refer to as a psycho or a mental deranged person, all which I pay little or no attention to them. My social circle was so small, actually there is no such thing as social circle in my l
******Eight years later*******Lucian had his back to the mat he spread on the floor of the house roof, it was a calm night, and his thoughts were scattered around the rooftop. funny enough he finds himself here every night, sometimes with Dylan at his side or Marek but tonight he alone was keeping himself company. he lay on a small mat staring at the clear moonlight and the twinkling stars in the sky.that moment the goddess cursed him and when he finds out that only their respective mate can free them from the nature curse, he vowed not to accept his mate.My sins are heavy and grave for me to look for an easy way out, even in a million years to come I will still shoulder my punishment, he had thought.he was okay with his mate not ever appearing but his brother in pain is that he could not bear, he wished to shoulder all the punishment, and he had asked if he can do a ritual that will make him alone take up the punishment but none of the witches were able to think of any ritual to c
******In the Woods****She waited an hour, and an hour turned into hours without any signs of her Ella, she check her notification and there was no message from her either, "She had never stood me up before," Arianna was worried for her friend.she thought maybe Ella came looking for her in the woods and got lost, she tried her number but it wasn't going through so she tried Simone's.it rang for a long time and when she thought it was going to get disconnected without him picking up, the other line got connected."Hey, Badie what is going on?" Simone sounded like someone who is in a hurry."Hey Simone, is Ella with you?" Arianna asked.Simone hesitated before answering her with a shaky voice."No, no, she's not here at all, why do you ask?" Simone said."Simone, is everything okay?" Arianna asked."Yes, yes, everything is fine Aria. I'm just busy with the maths assignment, I will try Ella's line and get back to you," he said, before Arianna could say anything the line disconnected."W
Luckily for Marek and Lucian, Iyyar arrive with one of the cars, Marek wanted to pick the unconscious lady to the car, but Lucian growled silently, he went towards them and picked her up in his arms he walked over to the leaving Marek in shock. Iyyar opened the back door of the car and Lucian lay her carefully on the backseat. Iyyar thought Lucian would come with them but he turned and left them, Marek got into the car and drove back to the penthouse then they took the strange girl to one of the empty rooms, made sure she was comfortable then they move to the sitting room to discuss the sudden appearance of Lucian's mate. "What will happen next?" Iyyar was the first to blurt out his worries. "It's his mate, what do you think will happen next," Marek said clearly he was way more worried than Iyyar, he's Lucian beta but right now he doesn't know what to think. "so was the wolf waiting for his mate or what," Iyyar said again. His head was bubbly with different questions, how come Lu
Arianna found herself on a comfy bed, her eyes shifted to the one in front of her. He had long brown hair, and those two gray-green eyes stared at her, she saw a brief glister of pity and something else that she could not fathom. Even though Arianna found this man before her drop-dead handsome she still fears for her safety. "Who are you?" Arianna asked. "I....I...I," He stammered before her. Arianna stood up abruptly from the bed, the strange man tried to move towards her but she pick up a lamp and point it towards him. "Who are you!" Arianna asked again this time she furrowed her brow threateningly. "I'm not a threat," He said. Arianna look at him and then she glance around her, the room had an unusual interior design, it seemed old fashion, very old-fashioned and it spark her interest but still, she was not comfortable with a stranger, she heard a lot about serial killers who disguise themselves looking for preys. "Put the poor lamp down let's talk," He demanded. "I'm not
******Arianna's POV*******I dashed towards the mansion which was filled with guards and cops, the guards were answering tons of questions that the cop threw at them.I tried my best not to get seen by anyone of them as I sneak in through the backyard, luckily for me, they were all busy and the entrance from the backyard was not locked at all.I tried my possible best to stay hidden, I stood behind the big pillar of the house, I thought I was well hidden but Jonathan yelled my name making me flinch and I look towards where the scream came from.Even when I was gesturing to him to hush, he still ran towards me."What a douchebag!" I cursed under my breath."You must hurry, your dad is with your mom at his study and I don't......" I didn't let him finish as I ran past him leaving him hanging, I darted towards the stairs and almost ran into one of the cops, he stood awestruck staring at me as I ran past him towards the study.I heard him ask Jonathan if he was seeing things and if that w
#Back in AkeldamaYears had passed. The season came and went, the mourning was still in the air, and the people sing praises of the superior king for returning them home and setting things right.they set up a festival for that day but they knew after losing his mate, he could never be the same again, Lucian would go to the divine tree every day to see if Khloe would come out to talk to him, he misses her but any time he goes there he comes back heavily drunk."You don't have to do this to yourself," Dylan scolded him one of such nights."Tell me, Dylan," He said staggering backward."If you were in my shoes what will you do?" he asked.Dylan was speechless, he does not want to in any way think of it. so he patted him on the shoulder and draw him into a hug."I can never forgive you Khloe," he whispered."Yes do that, never you forgive her," Dylan agreed with him then helped him to his chamber.it was not really all that bad to be back in their realm, though here had a painful memory
"What are you two talking about?" Lucian asked staring dead at Aliya. "I don't know what this asshole is talking about," Aliya said."Well let me brainstorm with you," Karnivan said in his deep muscular voice."Your mate is the only one who can bring our realm back to its former glory," Karnivan said as he made his way toward his throne."what do you take us for? fools?" Lucian asked.he wasn't going to stand there and let Karnivan's madness affect him. so he thought."Brother listen to him," Dylan plead with his eyes."I do take you as fools, you think the goddess blessed you with a mate? Do you think of yourself as the goddess's favorite?" Karnivan Laughed."I don't care about the goddess, I just want to get the hell out of this cave or better still shove some punches in your ass," Lucian glared at him with rage and hate."Those two are the rebirth of the igigis you sacrifice to gain power," He finally let out.Lucian placed his hand on his head, he repetitively kept on saying "No,
"Oh my. who do we have here?" Khloe turned around and immediately turned pale in horror, she saw a ginger-haired man standing in front of her with a devilish grin on his face while the rest looked at her like she is a moth."Where do you come from?" he said looking her up and down.Khloe wanted to run but she knows how fast vampires are, she could never outrun one, she thought of what to say but none of the excuses register in her brain."Oh my, I think she is deaf or is she dumb?" He said and the other two men with grim looks started laughing."I'm just a poor servant here," Khloe said looking down at her feet.The man was quiet for a while, Khloe knows that she had been caught in her lies when she heard the ginger hair man chuckle."Oh lies, I hate lies," he said hitting his fist on his hand making Khloe flinch in fear."You smell so delicious that no one of us would have kept you for long, you know why?" he took a step forward.Khloe took another step backward and shook her head."
Back at the penthouse*************************"You have to push Clarissa."Aliya is standing next to Clarissa holding her left hand and urging her to push."I'm getting tired," She cried out."Don't give me that" Aliya almost yell at her."Rissa looks at me," Iyyar said holding her hands and looking down at her."You know that I love you right? And you love those two with tiny feet and if you want to meet them you have to push them out first," Iyyar said persuading her.Clarissa nodded, she was sweating so much.some minutes later Clarissa had contractions and the babies were safely delivered.The cries of the babies filled the room, Iyyar could not hold in his excitement while Jason was bustling up."I want to hold the baby," Jason demanded. Only when the babies had arrived did they let midwives enter the room, the servants were not left out.Later that night, Clarissa and the baby were resting peacefully inside, Iyyar met Aliya sitting in the garden."Thank you so much. Aliya," Iy
"We've been on their trail for hours without any positive outcome!" Lucian yelled in a mind link with his brother."I can not give up on Arianna," Dylan's mind links back as he stubbornly increases his speed."Stop!" Lucian ran ahead of him and stood in his way, Dylan tried to take another path but Lucian is a well-trained soldier, he had suspected his movement beforehand, so he held back his tail loosely making Dylan yelp in pain."What the hell!" Dylan yell."Shift!" Lucian commanded.Dylan was hesitant but he eventually shifted into his human form."We can't continue running around in circles, we need help and I think this is a waste of time," Lucian said."Then call all the werewolves to come help, you will do that if it were Khloe," Dylan was furious, and with every second passed by he becomes irritated."Khloe is the Luna of the pack," Lucian corrected."And Arianna is my mate, Khloe is not yet your mate," Dylan said.Lucian opened his mouth to lash him out with his tongue but th
"What!" Iyyar said in shock.he ran towards the bed which was overflowing with Clarissa's blood, then he instantly turn towards Aliya, gripping her hands and almost going on his knees he begged."please save her," Iyyar was in tears.Aliya nodded and asked him to calm down, "Rissa had already lost consciousness and the babies are striving to stay alive in her tummy. I need you to calm down," Aliya said firmly.She gesture to Khloe to begin the pain reliever process, with unsteady feet Khloe walked up to her.She placed her hand on Clarissa's tummy, and for some minutes nothing was happening."Concentrate," Aliya said."I can't," Khloe shut her eyes tightly."She will die and it will be on you, your inability to be a better Luna, I thought you want our kinds to respect you? this is your chance," Aliya said stressing each one of her words so none of them would go unheard.Khloe pushed herself further and there was a tiny light peeping out her enclosed palm, gradually the veins on her hea
"Arianna!" Khloe yelled her name and ran after the car, the moment Leon saw her he hurried the men inside the car and they drove off with full speed."Arianna!" Khloe screamed.Lucian met her outside , he grabbed her hand and turn her over."Aria," Khloe pointed at the black SUV car."What happened?" Lucian was confused."Arianna, he took Arianna," Khloe said almost out of breath."Who did what?" Dylan ran out and overhead Khloe."Leon....he..he..""Slow down," Lucian tried to calm her, Khloe was panting so hard."Speak to me!" Dylan said impatient."What did Leon did?" Lucian asked calmly."He took Arianna," Khloe finally said.as soon as Khloe's word reach Dylan's in ear, he transformed into his big white with black patch wolf, he howl so loudly that Khloe and the rest had to cover their ears then he ran."Dylan wait!" Lucian tried to stop him but he was already gone.Marek came out and Lucia push Khloe towards him, "Take care of her," Lucian said and in her presence he transformed
The people all made way for the one that utter such words, they pave the way for him. A young dyed blue-haired guy with an obvious cheekbone and light brown eyes steps forward.he bowed to Lucian before speaking."I would never question you, my lord, questioning you meant questioning the goddess and I could never," he said."What's your name?" Dylan asked.Lucian was silent and observant, Dylan could tell that his calmness is only a charade as what will come after that is a storm."I would only speak to the superior king," The guy said stubbornly.the young guy look weather-beaten and dirty, his lips were chaffed and dry, and his shoes were dusty the only thing that might not make you see him as someone who had lost his sanity is his face which was shaved recently, he doesn't look like a responsible person neither does he look irresponsible either."you berated my queen you Luna and how do you plead for this offence you have committed," Lucian said.Lucian was nowhere ready to waste hi
the whole household gathered together in the living room, Arianna was forced by Dylan to sit on him, while Lucian sat on the big middle couch with a carving on it, he made space for Khloe to sit beside him."Does that mean am now his Luna?" Khloe wondered.some hours later the house becomes crowded with people, both male and female with an unusual energy.The only persons surprised at the multitude of people struggling to get a place inside were Arianna and Khloe.They throw glances at each other and shrugged when they also are not aware of what was going on.Khloe heard whispers of the people mostly they were all talking about her, some said she was weak while others sees the fire in her eyes, their critics and appraisal words made her choke with laughter.They were all excited about getting a Luna, "She looks so beautiful," Khloe heard someone whisper.Khloe looked around, she wanted to see the one who had complimented her."Oh I heard she was reincarnated by the goddess," She heard
