Isabella fumed with anger as she made her way to her room. Even her maid Lily, couldn't pacify her to take things easy. Rayne no longer cared about her. It's as if she is now living in his shadows. The report had come that the maid was poisoned and made to bleed to her death. Though Rayne didn't point his fingers at her, Isabella knew he was already suspecting her. “Milady, you need to take things easy and think about your health," Lily said as she went on her knees in front of Isabella. Isabella, who sat on the bed, couldn't help but clench her fist tightly against her side. “How dare he restrict my movement!" Isabella yelled and closed her eyes. Isabella was about to visit some of the merchants outside the palace but Rayne restricted her movement and told the guards not to let her leave the castle. She never thought Rayne was this callous and it infuriated her. “I can't even believe he would not let me see anyone I hold close to my heart," Isabella whined softly but
Selene shut her lips tight but she has decided to become stronger.“Every being is worth being treated nice, Selene and I wanted to let you know something," Logan said with one of his eyebrows raised ever Slightly, and Selene became anxious.Her curiosity tugged at her as she waited for Logan to speak again.“I thought you were a weak werewolf who just shifted but I was surprised because your wolf was different. It has golden eyes and it is something I have never come across in the whole realm," Logan confessed and it was Selene's turn to be surprised.She knew things had been different since we got Olivia her mate. She had felt the power within her as if she was reborn again and she was scared she wouldn't be able to control it.“Tell me more," Selene said with boldness but her voice faltered. However, Logan didn't pay much attention. He was already convinced, and everyone in the pack agreed with him.“The only person who has these eye colors in Werewolf form is usually a powerful A
“Actually. I think the Duke loves me too but he is finding it hard to speak his mind. Can you help me, Selene" Azalea said quickly with pitiful eyes. She dropped the basket in her hand and walked towards Selene, grabbing her hand.“I want to know what Sir Logan likes and what he loves doing. Where he usually went out to and all. I need everything." Azalea confessed, her eyes scrutinizing Selene.Selene took a deep breath as she found the right answer to use to reply. She just came to Starlight Fall Village a few weeks ago; how could she know so much about Sir Logan?“I don't know anything about Sir Logan Azalea." Selene finally replied and Azalea's composed expression fell. Azalea raised her hand to caress her hair, trying to hide her embarrassment.“I wanted to help Azalea but I don't know anything about the Duke at all. Though I can tell you one thing I know," Selene said with utmost sincerity.Azalea became curious when she heard this. “Tell me, what is it?" “Sir Logan usually g
“You can take her with you," Logan said. He turned his back to them. Margaret beckoned to Selene to follow her. The crescent moonlight cast its silvery glow on the two women.“I need to teach you how to control your energy but we don't have much time. We need to get there fast," Margaret said and Selene didn't interject.Selene walked briskly towards the old house located not too far from the council house. Margaret pushed the door open and different people were lying on the floor with wounds on their bodies.“You can all leave," Margaret told the Omega present in the room and they all went out.Selene felt the corner of her eyes fill with tears when she saw the way the people groaned in agony. She knelt before one of the men, and the fresh blood still dripped from his stomach.“Take a deep breath in and exhale," Margaret instructed Selene. Selene shut her eyes, took a deep breath, and exhaled.“Try to channel your energy with your wolf and become one with her in your mind," Margare
Six months later The young maidens, dukes, and lords were all dressed as they took the carriage. The coachman was happy because they make sales every Friday like this. All praises belong to the famous theater house in Starlight Falls Village. Two women make their way to the carriage and call the coachman's attention. “Take us to the theater house," one of the girls said as she sat inside the carriage seats. The coachman quickly got in and beat the horse to start moving. The Theatre House has become famous now after showcasing the adult drama about betrayal and redemptions six months ago. Nobles now frequent the theater house and it was all because of a beautiful woman who is an actress in the theater house. “I heard the masked lady will be there today with that male actor," one of the girls said and her friend couldn't help but smile. “Yes. That's why I couldn't wait until today. We all know her acting skills when it comes to adult drama are one-of-a-kind. She is too good." A
“You did well today, Selene and Lucian," Eugene said to the two actors as soon as he got to the backstage. The workers were already packing the equipment they used at the stage inside the store room.Eugene Theater House became popular all because of Selene and Lucian. He couldn't help but be blessed the day he accepted Selene into his theater house.After the drama they showcased a few months back, they all gained big recognition and he decided to organize drama every Friday. It was amazing and unbelievable when Selene suddenly took the spotlight but she had to start using a mask to hide herself from callous and horny men who seemed to recognize her face.Eve stayed beside Selene's side. She was busy arranging Selene's hair while Azalea and Maria packed their dresses inside the wardrobe position in the dressing room.“You came up with the play and all we do is act, Sir Eugene," Selene said with a radiant smile. Lucian agreed with Selene's statement. He still looked at Selene with lon
Rayne was restless as he paced through his room in his long strides. He is only putting on a loose pair of pants with his chest bare. A lot of cats were killed at the forest entrance just a few days ago, which made the people fearful and none of them could go into the woods to find even food to eat. The woodcutters are complaining because they couldn't go into the woods to find timber.Even the scholars have brought up many petitions. Waters from the stream and springs are now becoming tasteless. Most of them for him to be dethroned even when he was still in reign for only three years.He didn't believe in prophecy. He never believed in it but Rayne knew he needed to hear whatever message the moon goddess wanted to pass across.He had sent for Drake to be brought in. The man will soon be here. Just three seconds later, the guard announced the arrival of Drake into the palace.“Let him in," Rayne said aloud impatiently. His jaw clenched as he sat on the bed.“You sent for me, my king.
Perhaps the time is now after all. Rayne was sure Selene's parents don't have any distant cousins and he didn't even find out much information about her dead father either.Back then, when he took her in. He made sure to find out more information about her.“Tell me when the boy usually comes and when he has been coming," Rayne asked and Harold quickly tried to recollect the message he got from the men.He cleared his throat as they walked forward while a few maidens ogled at Rayne. They were smitten by Rayne's handsomeness.“Not until the last three months, Alpha. The boy usually came two times a month and no one knew the particular day. He seems to pick the day randomly." Harold answered.“That is what makes it suspicious. I need to visit them myself." Rayne said with a slight smile but Harold was against it.“What would you tell her mother? It will raise suspicion." Harold said aloud while making sure no passersby heard them.Rayne agreed with Harold but he knew if he was right, th
Selene sat down in her room, pacing around. She stares at her reflection in the room. She was in pain because of what Rayne said today, and she wished in her mind that it wasn't true. “I hate you,” she muttered under her breath. Her eyes are becoming teary, but she is not going to cry, not now. “Not again, Selene." "It's time for you to wake up from your fantasy dream," she said, but she wasn't sure if she would have confidence in doing that. To wake up from her deep slumber. “I will make him want me,” she said aloud to herself as she stared at her reflection in the mirror. She had always received praise from her mother and father in the past, and she knew she was a beautiful woman many men couldn’t refuse. If not for her weak state, she might not be here right now. ___ “Papa, what if the mate bond wasn't involved? Would you still love Mother? Selene asked her father under the tree in front of their house. At this time, she was around eighteen years old. “I already loved your mo
In the land of Blue Stone, the snowflakes descend from above. The air is quiet, and a peaceful calm covers the land. Each snowflake pirouettes gracefully before settling on the ground, transforming the world into a pristine white canvas. The trees, adorned with a glistening layer of snow, stand in quiet reverence. The muffled sound of footsteps and the occasional laughter of children playing in the snow create a harmonious melody, punctuating the tranquil winter scene. People selling in the market, hurry to find shelter, fearing that the heavy snow might damage their goods. Amidst the chaos in the market, deep in the forest, a silhouette was seen moving briskly among the trees. The tall trees couldn't shield him from the heavy snowflakes; his hands trembled, and the cloak he wore couldn't protect him from the harsh weather. He continued to walk in the woods and felt relief when he noticed the tower ahead. However, he still needed to walk more before reaching his destination. He glance
The rain stopped, and the raindrops made the ground shiny. The soil became wet and fertile under the soft light of the moon. The trees in the forest, which had survived the storm, swayed gracefully in the gentle breeze, dancing together. After the rainclouds went away, the thick forest, once covered in darkness from the rain, was now dark again. The black colors blended with the shapes of the tall trees. In this dark scene, a quiet feeling filled the forest, interrupted only by the spooky sound of an owl hooting, like a musician playing a song in the silent night. Rayne, unfazed by the profound darkness that enveloped the night, continued his journey, and as he trod along, his once obscure, dark eyes began to emit an uncanny golden glow. His every sense was heightened as he tried smelling that sweet scent of his fated mate Selene. He pondered whether the unexpected message he got from Drake was a result of Selene's safety. He needed to protect her by his side but the woman was jus
Rayne jumped into the room through the window. There were traces of blood on the floor and some were also splattered on the wall. He couldn't believe his guess was right. Rayne found out about the red moon because of the report he got from Harold through the letter. He realized there was someone in Bluestone Kingdom who probably came back to this remote village for an ulterior motive. He already found out Margaret was one of them and he already sent word to the Duke of the village. Though Rayne didn't mention Margaret, he specifies that there is going to be a ritual under the red moon and Selene is the sacrifice. "She was murdered," someone said behind Rayne. It was Logan. He looked at Rayne strangely because he hadn't seen him before but he realized he was stronger and more powerful. He walked inside and touched the blood on the floor. He already found the girl murdered here at the back of the shabby house. Logan sat on the sofa opposite Rayne with a table separating them
His other hand went to her nipple and he used his hand to play with it. His wolf was restless; he wanted to mark their mate but Marcus knew he had to be gentle with Eve. Eve loosened up as she began to whisper some incoherent words. Her moans were the only thing that echoed in the walls of the room. She could feel something building up inside her to settle in between her legs. This feeling was known to her but there was nothing she could do to quench the burning fire. Logan stopped sucking her breast and he knew air towards it. Eve moans as her nipples become erect. She ground her hips onto Marcus' lap, trying to get some friction but she was far from being satisfied. Marcus changed their position and this time, Eve's back was pressed into the bed. In an instant, Marcus shredded the dresses apart and tossed them to the floor, which made Eve scared for a second. He leaned forward and moved into her neck and kissed it, at the same spot where the mating mark is done, he sucked on i
The pack members were already sitting in their various seats. Azalea and Selene didn't talk much after what happened back in the room. Eve and Marcus wore a matching dress as they stood under the altar while Sir Logan, the Duke of Starlight Fall Village, performed the mating ritual. Logan needed to hurry because there would be a red moon soon. "Now it's time for the mate vows!" Logan's voice resounded in the hall as he imprinted a mark on their hands and held it together. “By the light of the full moon, I claim you as mine," Marcus began. “You are my mate, my partner, and my forever bond; I accept you as my own, now and forever. Together we shall run, under the glow of the full moon each season, with our hearts beating as one, our souls forever tied. I promise to love and protect you through all of life's phases as my destiny, my fate, and my mate; I seal our bond, forever and always." “In the eyes of the pack, we are one, united, and strong. By the power of the wolf, our love sh
Chapter 102 “Milady," Selene said with a beautiful smile on her lips. Margaret came with a young lady who Selene hadn't seen before. “I thought you were talking with someone, Lady Selene," Margaret said while the lady beside Margaret greeted Selene. “No. I was talking to myself," Selene said and ushered them in. The two came inside and sat on the sofa. “I heard from Logan that you will be coming alongside the men to guard the village," Margaret said and Selene nodded her head in agreement because it was true. “I wanted to go along with Logan because they might need my help," Selene said with a slight smile. She settled down on the chair. She wondered why Rayne went into hiding. She knew he would be eavesdropping on their conversation now. “Are you sure everything is okay?" Margaret asked, seeing the hickey on Selene's neck, which she failed to cover up with her dress because she was unaware. ”Yes, is something wrong?" Selene asked with confusion marred her face. “I didn't kn
Selene closed her in pure ecstasy and her lips trembled as she tried hard not to moan. Her back ached and her fingernails were dug inside the bed even after so many months.He brought out that feminine side in her and she was annoyed by it.There was a knock at the door but Rayne didn't give her way to reply who the person was. She was scared that if she parted her lips, she was going to moan. Her bedroom was not far from the parlor and the bedroom door was left open so she could hear the knock.Logan was the one standing at the door. He had come to the theatre house to see Selene act when he realized he didn't continue the play. He waited till the play came to an end and that was when he found Eve. It was Eve who told him Selene left early.Rayne moved his head away from Selene and taunted her with sarcasm.“Won't you answer him, I think it is your man," Rayne said, he emphasized the word man and Selene turned red. “Who is there" She said and tried to get free but Rayne held her in
“You got your wolf," Rayne said and pushed Selene to the wall. Her back hit the wall with a gentle thud but she was far from being done.She parted her lips and began to whisper but before she could complete the chant, Rayne caught her other hand.He couldn't believe Selene had the blood of a witch in her.“How could you?" Selene spat defiantly with disgust, trying hard not to cry. If there was anyone that loved her in the whole world, it was her mother. She wouldn't hesitate to kill Rayne herself even if it's going to take every last of her breath.“Who are you talking about?" Rayne inquired with his head tilted to the side. “There was a mosquito humming at the back of my head just now which I had to kill without even moving my fingers," Rayne replied in a playful tone which left Selene flabbergasted.“Oh and I like that fiesty look on you," Rayne said but Selene wished she could slap him across the face.“Then let me go?" Selene said but Rayne only Pinned her hand to the wall with
