The name Priscilla gave her an image of a young shaman, but she had no idea how she’d look. For her safety, she took a knife and tucked it inside her coat. In this pack, there are a few shamans other than Priscilla but they are all bogus as per Raven’s study.Priscilla is good compared to the other, especially in finding the future. Xander gave her a departing kiss and walked away to carry on his pack’s duty. Sirena waited for Lenin, alone in the house.“Lulu, do you think, I’m not listening to any of your advice?” Sirena questions.It snorted. “Yes, of course. You’re such a brat. But it’s fine that you wanted to find out the important life events. You have to know everything before coming to conclusions,” Lulu said.“Yes, that’s right, but more than that, I want to know if this is my home. I got married and I’m living a happy life with Xander but in the past, Melody was also in the same situation. I don’t think anyone has driven her out. It would be her choice but why did she even le
“Do you know my mother?”“Yes,” Priscilla nods.“How? What she asked to you?”“She came here when she was pregnant with you. She just asked me whether she would have a safe pregnancy but I told her that she wouldn’t be alive to see her daughter grow and that’s what happened. She was so upset like you when I said it but at the end of her journey she must’ve understood my words were true,”Ever since Sirena started talking to Priscilla, she got to learn a lot of things and her eyebrows raise as she learned about all the new things. It might be all a fabrication as everyone in the pack knows her story. She must’ve made up this story after knowing about everything.Perhaps Priscilla is good at this and honest with her. She doesn’t know and one thing is sure that she was going to come here often after this.“What else I asked?”“You wanted to know whether you’ll be happy?”“And what did you say?”“I told you, you’ll have a mixed life, ups and downs were inevitable,”“It’s in everyone’s lif
Sirena came out of the house and saw Lenin waiting for her.“Is everything alright, Ma’am,”“She is alright,” Priscilla answered for her.“Shall we leave?”“Yes,” Sirena nodded and looked at Priscilla and gave her money.“I don’t need this,”“Then, what do you want?”“I’ll ask for my payment once everything is over,” she said.Sirena nodded and made her way into the forest.“Let’s shift and go into the forest,” Lenin said.“No, I want to walk for a few miles. You can go if you want,” she said.“Nope, I have to accompany you,” he said and followed her.“Have you tried magic before? Do you have any experience in this?” she asks him.“A couple of times, it doesn’t work in my case. But I know many have found a solution by coming here,”“Is she famous?”“Yes, it was a little crowded but since someone your rank was coming, she asked the commoners to come by tomorrow,” Lenin said.“Oh, I should’ve thanked her for that,”“You don’t have to until what she promised to do happens. Sometimes magi
Sirena has been preparing to go to the mountains since the sun has set. Priscilla has sent her a message that she had arranged for the ritual. It’s been two days since she came back from the last visit and strangely she didn’t meet with any ghost sightings. She slept peacefully without much worry and she believed that Priscilla’s spell worked. There's a lot of chance she could’ve seen the ghost since Xander left her alone in the night but she didn’t hear any strange noises.She told Xander everything, and he’s quite relieved that she didn’t get to know anything about him. He said that he’ll accompany her to that place. He got curious too but he didn’t show it on his face.“Ready?” Xander asks and looks at his beautiful wife who has a sudden interest in finding her past.He doesn’t know what to say other than simply agreeing to her needs.“Yes, let’s go,” she smiled widely and held his hand.“If you’re going to find something hideous about your family, will you continue to stay here?”
“Xander,” she said softly.“Yes,” he looked at her.“Are you not going to ask me anything?”“What should I ask?”“What I saw?”“You saw what you needed and I’ve nothing else to say. You left the pack and I’m the reason for it too,”“I got to know that and Xander why do you love me so much?”He smiles, “Did you hear our conversation?”“Yes, I did. You and I have loved so much. We should’ve been mates,”“We are nothing less now. No one can separate us,” he smiles.“I haven’t told you this before,”“What?” he kissed her forehead.“I love you, Xander and I feel so lucky to have you in my life,” she confessed.He felt so elated to hear that.“Don’t make me lose my control,” he said, “And you know I love you more,”“Yes, I know from here,” she said pointing to her chest.“Go to sleep. Don’t think about anything,”“Are you not going to ask me?”He smiles, “If you’re going to leave, you wouldn’t be calm like this,” he said.He understands me so well. That’s why we always end up together even
Who was he? Is he real? He can’t be real. Out of nowhere, he came into my dreams to threaten me. He interrupted me before I could find the truth. He’s so confident and she doesn’t want to forget his face, in case he’s going to come back. She’s sure that he will come back if she keeps going after her past.“It’s a waste of time to think about that man. You got a lot more work and you have a life to live,” Lulu advised.“That’s true but can you at least help me?”“I told you, let’s go to Priscilla, do it again, and let’s find whether he comes again. You don’t have to worry much,” she said.Sirena nodded and went to clean her wardrobe. It’s all messy. Her father has gone out to a trip with his wife.The entire pack is less crowded and the silence is too much to handle. She puts on music and starts to do the Job. Xander came home after buying groceries for the dinner. She saw him standing by the door and looking at her.His face lit up in a big smile.“You came, I’ll prepare dinner,” she
“Melo, is it necessary to go to Priscilla again?” No one addresses her as Sirena here and she gets used to the name Melody.“Yes, she asked me to come because this tie expires in two days,” Sirena replied.“Does this even have an expiry date? I don’t think she’s trustable,” Xander protested.When she tells him that she heard about her father, he starts to panic. The truth won’t drive her off but it will make their relationship uncomfortable. He’d worked a lot for this relationship and he doesn’t want to see this fall apart before his eyes.“Yes, I promise I won’t go after this,” she said.“Melo, you don’t have to promise me, you can do anything you want, but I’m worried that you shouldn’t lose your peace of mind over this,” he said.“I’ll keep that in mind,” she smiled.“Lenin will accompany you,” he said.Sirena nodded and came out of the house. Perhaps this is the first time she’s leaving Xander behind. She can understand how panicked he is as she keeps pursuing in this way that eve
“You must be still in love with him, don’t you?”Sirena looked at her in surprise and she couldn’t deny that entirely.“I don’t know,” Sirena said, “Now, I’m married to Xander, I don’t even remember the love I had for him but I guess I must’ve loved him more than I loved Alder,”“You have,” Priscilla agreed.“My destiny is cruel to me by bringing two men into my life. If my destiny is Xander then why I had to meet Alder? This is complete nonsense,” she said.“Maybe it’s trying to teach you something,”“Teach me what? That I can never be happy with the man I love,”“That’s not true. You’re happy right now,”“No, I’m not sure how long this is going to last. This ghost is asking me to leave and I’m here for your help,”“It’s a good thing that you have a little bit of bad in this life. You know too much goodness is bogus, it’s driving you to your destruction it means,”“You have an explanation for everything but right now I want peace. I want n escape from all this and I want to know when
“Do you know who’s the reason I’m here?” she asks Alder.“My father,” she said when he took a moment to answer her.“I thought it was Xander,” he said.“Yes, he’s the second on the list, but my father caused all the mishaps in my life,” she said.“In that, he’s advising me to be calm. Just for the sake of living in his pack, I have to endure all the cruelty that is inflicted on me. Do you know what’s even more cruel, I shouldn’t even question why they were doing this?”“What more can you expect from a father who’s ready to sacrifice you for his safety,”“He’s not my father, I’ve come to that decision,”“That’s understandable,” agreed.“Where I’m on that list? The list of people who ruined your life,” he questions.“You’re in the fifth place,”“Oh, I thought I would be the third,” he said.“No, you’re not. Grace takes third place, and your mother is next,” she said.“Is the fifth place forgivable?”“I don’t know,” she shrugged. Alder smiles, he feels like there’s a possibility.“It’s w
As Alder cooks dinner, Sirena stares outside, she never thought she would be in this situation. Life throws surprises at her constantly. She got ready to have dinner with him on the table. They haven’t come up with a proper plan yet.They had dinner silently and Sirena felt something in the pit of her stomach to see him next to her.“How is it?”“Good,” she smiled.“Really, I’m not a great cook,”“That I can taste but it’s not too bad,” she said.He watched her sympathetically and there was love in him. He wishes he could marry her again and be with her all his life but it won’t happen unless she trusts him again. Maybe there’s a chance and he’s not the one who could control that. It’s entirely in her hands. Only if her mind changes, she will think about being with them. No matter what he does, it’s all in her heart.With a heavy heart, he puts a smile on his face.“I’ll clean the dishes,” Sirena said.She now feels like they were a couple. He stood beside her without leaving her alon
The day passed, and Sirena was cleaning and dusting the house. She realized that going back to the pack was a stupid idea. She shouldn’t go back; it would jeopardize all her plans, and take away her peace, or even her life. So, there’s no other choice but to stay in this place for some months. Alder said he’ll leave in one or two days because he doesn’t want to fall under any suspicion. She had to stay here alone.That’s great because she can be free and she can do anything.“What do you want to eat for dinner?”“Anything, I’m exhausted,” she said.“Okay, I’ll cook,”“You’ve all the supplies in the fridge and freezer. If you want anything you can call me, there’s a phone,” he pointed to the shelf.“Sure,” she nodded and lay on the couch.Alder prepared a steak and some veggies. She watched him with a tint of surprise in her eyes. He’d never cooked or acted this nice to her when she was with him. This is really surprising that Alder has a side like this.He’s so considerate. How can a
Xander lost his mind when he got to know that Sirena was missing. He thought she just went to see Priscilla or just roaming around the pack. But when he tried to contact her and she was unreachable, he panicked. He went to Priscilla’s place, broke into the house, and saw no sign of them. He understood that they both were gone.He alerted his pack and they searched for her everywhere. He called Grace, and asked if Alder is in the pack. She told him that he’d left for a business trip, two days earlier.He couldn’t trust that so he asked Grace to check into it. Either she escaped with Priscilla, or ran away alone or Alder must’ve taken her. He doesn’t know what to do. He didn’t let her father know about this but the next day he couldn’t hide it anymore, informed her father that she’d left the pack.He was pissed off, at least in front of him. He asked Xander to leave her alone if he couldn’t find her reasoning that she didn’t deserve a life like this.Xander can’t do that, that would be
That night, she slept on the couch after eating what Alder cooked. It filled her hunger, he’s a great cook. She doesn’t have a deep sleep at all. She thought about so many things staring at the ceiling.Sirena is mentally preparing for the moment when she meets Xander. She has to lash out or else act as all good with a knife behind and just cut his throat when he starts talking lies again. With all these negative feelings, she took off her meaningless wedding ring and stuffed it inside her pocket.She’s not going to forgive him at all. She can even forgive Alder but not Xander. Last night, Alder insisted that their mate bond was cursed and that's the reason he treated them in that way. Maybe that’s true but she couldn’t accept him. The anger in her wants him to be gone and she doesn’t know what she will do if he’s gone.In her life, the men who come into her life always make her uncomfortable and confused. Either they were too sweet for her taste or too unattainable. It doesn’t feel p
Alder sat next to her after putting the things in place.“I want to go back to my pack,” she said.“You can’t,”“It’s not something that you have to decide. I want to go,”“No, that’s too dangerous,”“I don’t understand, why are you so worried? This is my problem and I know what happened. I’ll take care of it,” she said.“How can you take care of it alone? You’re being ridiculous. Xander is way ahead of us and you don’t know what he will do,”Sirena looked at him squinting her eyes. “Why did you bring me here? Who gave you that permission?”“What’s wrong with this?”“You should’ve asked me,”“You wouldn’t have agreed to come with me,”“That’s right. If only you’d asked me in a good way. I would’ve agreed. But you will never do it because you don’t respect me as a wolf. When I was with you, you treated me like your slave just like what you’re doing now,” she said.“So, what? We both have the same intention,” he replied.She stared at him, he’s not understanding the problem. He’s never
Sirena woke up when she felt like she was being shaken and moving. She opened her eyes and saw she was in the car’s back seat. She couldn’t move her limbs for a moment and felt like this was a dream. The last thing she remembers is being in Priscilla’s house. Now she’s here in this car.Gritting her teeth, she got up from the seat and looked at the driver. To her surprise, it was Alder. Priscilla is on Alder’s side, and she helps him abduct her. Sirena gritted because she thought Priscilla was genuine and, on her side, but all this time, she’d worked for Alder. This is too much. How can she do this to me? She questions with anger and resentment.She stared at Alder. He looked excited and happy. Even though they had broken their mate’s bond, she could feel his emotions. She’d admired him a lot in the past, so it’s easy to study his face.“You woke up,” he said sensing her breath closer to him.“What the hell are you doing?” she questions in her hoarse voice.“Can’t you see, I'm taking
After shifting, Lulu made her way to Priscilla's house, and it was the only way Sirena was going to feel alright. The place is quiet as usual. To her surprise, Priscilla wasn’t there at home. She didn’t answer the door. It’s empty. Her garden is untouched and the herbs weren’t watered.She stayed there for some time and she felt there was no sign of her. She decided to leave feeling something wasn’t right. Suddenly she heard a click in the ground, she turned and looked at the house. It came from the inside and she peered inside the window.She can make out a frame in the dark, that’s lying on the ground. She can’t help but think that’s Priscilla and she must be lying there dead or unconscious. That’s a wild assumption yet she doesn’t want to leave without checking on her.She went to the door, and using all her strength, she hit it with her shoulders. She did that several times, but only her shoulders hurt.“Even if you try all day, it won’t open,” Priscilla’s voice came from behind.
As he entered the house, he saw Sirena in the kitchen, cooking dinner for him, unaware that he had been with Grace all this time.“Why are you so late?” she asks.He gave the flowers and kissed her lips. She looked surprised and he thought she loved him too much but in reality, she was surprised to see his perfect ac.“Thanks,” she got that in her hands and kept that aside.“Go and fresh up. I’ll finish this up,” she said and he nods.After he left, Lulu asked, “Did you smell that?”“Smell what?”“He smells like Grace. Her perfume smell coming mildly from her,” Lulu said.Sirena sighs. It makes her heart heavy. She can’t help but have tears to think that she’s too unlucky.“Are you okay?”“Yes, I’m fine,” she nodded and wiped the tears that slid down to her cheeks.“Do you have to do this?”“Yes,”“You don’t have to go through this. Just leave all this behind,”“Where else can I go?”“Anywhere, you got some cash in your hand. You can go far away and start anew,”“They will find me,” s
