“What rubbish!” Joshua growled. “Don’t listen to her, Carys. She is lying. She just doesn’t want you with me. When she can plan an attack on herself just to keep you away from me, weaving these webs of lies isn’t a big thing. Besides! There is no way she can know what happened in our lives ten years ago.”

“Then you tell her what happened,” Edith said. “You can give her better details about how you induced the miscarriage and corrupted the doctors to manipulate her medical reports.”

Joshua clenched his jaws and glared at Edith. “I know what you are trying to do. You are seeding distrust between us. But it won’t work. Carys knows me well enough to fall into your trap…”

“I don’t,” I said, staring at the album lying near my feet. “Who… who are you?” I looked at Joshua. “Joshua?” I shook my head. “You are not him.”

“Poor girl. The man you kept calling your bestie stabbed you in the back again and again while you kept questioning the source of your wounds. I know the truth will

    [Kian]My fingers rested on the keys of my laptop, but I didn’t even know what I was doing. I was lost somewhere in her tears and the last kiss we shared.The worst had already happened. Still, there was a foreboding in my chest.I curled up my fingers and shut the laptop. I couldn’t concentrate on anything, no matter how hard I tried. My thoughts kept wandering back to the illusion I witnessed in the Forest of Mirrors. I rubbed my stinging eyes with the heels of my palms. Shutting my eyes, I ran my fingers through my hair, leaning back into the chair. Hoot!Snow White screeched, perched on the windowsill of my office.I looked at her.“The window’s open, Snow White. Fly out if you want,” I said.But she didn’t stop screeching.I let out a sigh and got up, walking closer to the window.“What is it? You want me to close the window?” I asked, looking at her. She turned her head 360 degrees and screeched again, looking outside the window. “What do you want me to do?” I asked, follow

    [Carys]My body had been constantly shaking from the moment I saw Xander throw Snow White’s lifeless body on the ground and lung towards me.How could I have been so blind all these years? I was his beta for ten years. Why is it I never even suspected that something was wrong with him? He had been my closest friend almost all my life, yet I never knew him beyond the perfectly curated version of himself he presented to me.Only if I wasn’t stupid enough to be so easily manipulated by him, I could have protected everything and everyone I lost. And once again…I looked at Kian, who impatiently searched for some kind of magical card in his deck of cards. Cards were spread all over his desk. Some were even on the floor. He looked through the cards on the last deck and threw them away as well. The cards fluttered to the floor.I peered at him, lost in the tsunami of thoughts and conflicting emotions. Maybe now I know how he felt when I blamed him for my miscarriage. Because at the moment, I

    [Carys]All the way to the Neutral zone, Kian didn’t say a word. He just kept peering outside the window, looking at the clouds and birds sprinting behind us. Verity and I sat together on the private plane that Alpha King had sent to pick us up. Silence felt safest in that five-hour flight. Once we landed in the Neutral zone, we were taken to Alpha King’s palace instead of AAC’s headquarters. Verity said she had direct orders from Alpha King to bring me safely to his palace. Getting invited to Alpha King’s palace wasn’t something that happened daily because King Elysar kept his personal life and family away from the eyes of the world and media. So, except for rumors, the world knew nothing about his family members. That was, of course, for the peace, privacy and security of his family.Except for Liam and a few of his trusted people, even AAC didn’t have much access into King’s palace. So, it just made me wonder how important this meeting was going to be.After a fifteen minute dri

    [Carys]“What incident?” I asked.“During one hunt, Calista was rivaled against Raphael, Kian’s father and… she won. And things went downhill for her from there. As the camps went on, everyone in the camp started distancing themselves from Calista. Not just lycans, but werewolves too hesitated from going near her or talking to her. Since Calista mostly spent her time alone reading books, we didn’t find it odd. We thought maybe staying alone is what she wants, but it took us some time to understand that she was facing social rejection.” He got up and poured tea into three cups. He passed me and Kian a cup each. “But her performance just got better and better. Hunting became an emotional outlet for her and it was in killing that she found refuge. A very negative and dangerous state of mind to be in for a werewolf. It was later we found out the actual reason…” King glanced at Kian and continued after sipping on his tea. “Raphael and his friends had threatened everyone in the camp. Th

    [Kian] Carys was drenched in sweat. She clenched her fists in a desperate attempt to hide the trembling of her hands. A past so wrecked the only way her mind coped up with it was by making her forget all those excruciating memories. I couldn’t even imagine how broken she would be after being rescued from her own mother. No wonder she never talked about her childhood and whenever she did, it was always about her father. The mere thought of her enduring such a dark past was heart-wrenching. It pained me to even imagine a weak, scared, vulnerable kid going through all that. How heartless one had to be to torture their own child and for what? “Mate bond’s not ours? What does that even mean?” she asked. King Elysar looked at her, but didn’t reply. He was lost in his thoughts for a few seconds. “Fine.” He said, getting up. “Would you mind coming with me? There’s something I think you should see and it might make more sense to you because honestly, I am not a genius and as a two hundr

    [Kian]“Wait, you can read this?” Carys asked Alpha King.“Yes,” King Elysar said.I looked at the foreign letters on the pages of that book. “What language is this?” I asked.“Faemorish,” Carys said. “Ruin said it was an extinct language. How do you know it?” Carys contemplated King Elysar.“Oh. Well…” he cleared his throat. “I am old. I know stuff you guys don’t.”Carys narrowed her eyes, examining King Elysar.“It might just be a rumor, but people say the Neutral zone was enchanted by fae magic. In case it’s true, how did you get access to fae magic? Because that too went extinct centuries ago,” Carys said. “And if you deny it, then how would you explain the decrease in the Alphas’ powers when they enter the Neutral zone? Making you the Alpha King, the most powerful.”“Carys…” I held her elbow. She looked at me over her shoulder and then glanced back at the King.“I didn’t mean to put it offensively. I am just trying to make sense of everything, like you said, Alpha King. I know e

    [Carys] “If this folktale has any truth, and the Bond is actually evolving, then we might be in a little greater danger than we already were with all those deaths and disappearances and deforestation…” Alpha King tightened his jaws, letting out a frustrated sigh. Deforestation? Where did that come from? “What do you mean?” Kian asked. “Well… you see. Emrys wasn’t able to save Moratia. Her existence was wiped off from the world because of the moon goddess’ deceit. And while the goddess sliced Emrys apart alive. With every severing of his limbs, he pledged that he would return. Stronger. And when he does in the name of love and justice, he would destroy everything and everyone precious to the moon goddess before obliterating her forever.” A haunting silence hung in the air until Alpha King got up. “But this is all a crappy myth! Nothing else! It can’t be! Never! Absolutely ridiculous! I don’t believe that crap! I’ll never believe that crap!” he grunted frustratingly. “I’ll excuse m

    [Kian]She looked nervous and, for some reason, Zarek had become extremely restless.I placed my hand on her shoulder. “Carys, you can talk to me about anything. You can trust me to understand you,” I said, holding her gaze.She bit her lips and nodded.“The thing is, during the duel, I almost killed him…” she said, her eyes restlessly moving around. “My dagger pierced right through his heart and he sort of died for a few seconds. His breathing had stopped and… I panicked. I didn’t know what to do. If he died, I would have been stuck in his ice castle forever, so…” she took a deep breath. “He is a half vampire, so I thought maybe my blood could do something to help him?”“O—k?”“I pulled out the dagger and while I was doing it, I felt like I had turned into ice inside out. Like my heart had frozen. I felt cold and numb and… strange. But as soon as the dagger was out of his heart, all of that stopped and… he pinned me down and… well…”I grabbed her arm with a surging impatience, “and

    [Carys]“At the conclusion of this meeting, this is my final verdict in compliance with the vote of other alphas — the Autumn pack will not be dissolved. As proposed by the Gamma Mic of Autumn pack, the Autumn pack will be run under emergency conditions with the gamma assuming the beta’s position and upholding the pack. The rank of the alpha of the Autumn pack will remain empty until Alpha Joshua’s child is born. AAC will assist the Autumn pack at every stage of recovery.” I didn’t attend the meeting, but turns out Verity had other ways to have a peek into everything that happened in the conference hall. “Edith Percy Nightfall’s punishment will be postponed until and after the heir of the Autumn pack reaches the age of five. She will be convicted like everyone else who was responsible for the Blank Space incident. Until then, she’ll remain under AAC’s surveillance.” I let out a sigh. “As per Alpha Dominic’s request, the Spring pack will monitor and take care of Edith Percy Nightfal

    [Carys]Hoot!Snow White perched herself on Kian’s chest.“Kian’s soul has sustained severe injuries, Carys,” Moratia said. “It will take years for him to recover. The Bond that remains in his soul will help in his recovery. Keep Snow White close to him. She’ll help feed him the spiritual energy he needs through this mist. We are taking Mizkeal’s soul with us.”She looked at Death. Death turned his face towards Moratia and gave a slight nod.I lifted my gaze and looked at Moratia. The Ravens and crows that ripped Mizkeal’s soul away from Kian had long disappeared into the dark portal with his soul. The portal revolved behind Death’s divine yet haunting figure. His face was covered with a skull mask.He turned towards the portal and stretched out his hand towards Moratia. She glanced at me and smiled.“Thank you for everything, Carys,” she said before she turned around and looked into his eyes before placing her hand in his. They walked into the dark portal. Once their figures were e

    [Carys]Moratia slowly looked around to see Alpha King and Liam standing near the borders with their army. After all the destruction Mizkeal caused, it was only logical for him to take things in his hand.Levi stood beside them, staring at us. I could tell by the look on his face that he tried his best to hold Alpha King back, but couldn’t. The same look was on Verity’s face.Verity tried to run towards us when Alpha King ordered one of his soldiers to take her away from the battlefield.Nox stood with the other members of the SW, looking frantically around the battlefield. He was clearly looking for Morana.Morana and Christian had fallen into the mist together, but I hadn’t seen them after that. I could only hope that they were ok.Dominic and Ash walked through the crowd of soldiers to the front-lines, taking in the situation.Of course, all of them felt the horror of Mizkeal’s wrath.“Brother!” My eyelids fluttered towards Aamna as she tried to cross the borders and come to our si

    [Carys]I could feel everything Moratia felt.All the centuries of life, love and death flashed in her soul.Her soul was elated to see Mizkeal again, and the way he recognized her again filled her with hope, but it didn’t take long to shatter. Somewhere in him, she yearned to find the man she fell in love with. The prince who taught her how to live.But neither was Mizkeal the same, nor was his love for her. The pure love that a fae price once had for her had turned into a madness of a fae lord. He loved her, yes. But in a constant fear of losing her and that kind of love leads to desperation. And that desperation had blinded Mizkeal.I could actually understand the reason behind his desperation because I was desperate, too. I was desperate to save Kian, bring him back, and I was ready to do anything that could make that possible.Marrying him or not marrying him would depend on Moratia. And I knew whatever she chose would affect me significantly, so I had to brace myself for whateve

    [Mizkeal]I didn’t care what happened inside me. I used every ounce of my soul for this last attack.The world could end at its own accord, but…I shifted my glare at Carys.To end her was my right.Peering at me, she got to her feet. Holding my gaze, she stood calmly amidst the exploding ground around her. She licked her lips before taking a deep breath.She smiled gently and shut her eyes, allowing the tears welled in her eyes to trail down her beautiful face.I landed on the ground. Dust and debris of the ground blasted all around us as I strutted towards her.I grabbed her wrist and yanked her closer, barely holding back my rage.The chimes of her crown jingled louder than the exploding earth, sending goosebumps all over my body.“Open your eyes…” I commanded in a slightly shivering tone.I grabbed her upper arms tighter.“Open your eyes!” I snarled at her.She shook her head, her lips trembling as she took in a shuddering breath through her tears.“Carys!”“You know my name, my p

    [Mizkeal]Christian held back his groan, gritting his teeth as he glared at me with bloodshot eyes.“Why is everyone so stubborn here?” I sighed. “Well, pain is a choice, and you chose not to show it. I respect that.”“Shove that respect up your ancient ass and get out of my best friend’s body,” he growled, glaring right into my eyes.I chuckled wryly. “You have a strange sense of humor. How does it feel to be in that head of yours, to have a tongue sharper than your claws? There is no real damage you can do to me.”Christian laughed obnoxiously. “That’s the stupidest thing I have ever heard.”“Oh! Have you ever heard yourself?” I taunted back.Morana let out a titter with a smirk spread across her lips.I shifted my gaze to Morana, whose calculative eyes analyzed me.She was the one important to me, but I was still not sure if I could absorb my heart and Bond without damaging them both in the process.I couldn’t risk absorbing Bond while she had my heart because then… it could damage

    [Mizkeal]As I soared towards the sky, a wave of raging adrenaline pumped through my veins, pounding in my ears.Carys Elffire was playing a dangerous game.She split the Bond in two parts! How the hell did she split it apart?But what I failed to understand was how she got a hold on Bond so quickly. A day ago, she couldn’t even keep its power in control and now she had split it in two?But what I wanted to know was how far she had decoded Bond and its abilities.Bond was far more powerful than before. New elements were added into Bond and I hadn’t had enough time to decipher all of them, either. So, it was important for me to know how much she had deciphered it or altered it.With a swift blow of my mana, I created a squall that tore the mist apart for a few seconds. It gave me enough time to escape.The mist swirled around me, playing with my head, bringing out the memories that were impossible for me to resist or ignore. Despite my efforts, echoes of Moratia’s voice haunted me, blu

    [Carys]Parting from Mizkeal, I held his hands in mine.His calculative silver eyes narrowed on our hands before he looked into my eyes, as though he could see my soul.“I know what you are thinking. But I am not here for you,” I said, holding his gaze. “I’m here for Kian because I cannot lose him.”He smirked faintly, his eyes calling me out for being delusional.“If Kian lives on in you, as you… then I agree to that fate,” I said, looking into his eyes. “If his soul is merged in yours, then I’ll love his torn soul through you. If you go beyond that border, Alpha King will do everything in his power to stop you. He will kill my Kian and… I can’t let that happen. So, I’ve stopped them. I lied to them. I told them I can… stop you. But I know I can’t.”Mizkeal narrowed his eyes.“You’ve been madly in love, Mizkeal, with a woman. So, I know you understand my desperation, and this might be the stupidest decision I make for this world, but keeping you safe is the only way I can ensure Kian
