Ella's POV

"Did you hear that?" I asked as I turned to Kevin.

"I didn't hear that." He said and shook his head.

I smiled. I didn't think he heard me. He was busy staring at my face and smiling that I was wondering if he would fall down flat on his face any moment from now. So far, all was well as he hadn't fallen on his face but I didn't need him to be distracted.

I knew that he loved that we were here but we were still in the jungle with dangers all around us and we needed our wits with us.

"You need to be focused, Kevin." I sighed.

"I am focused." He replied.

I shook my head and snorted. "You need to be focused on the journey and not on me."

He grinned. "How can I focus on anything else when I have you by my side?"

I shook my head. "Focus, Kevin. You are not being funny."

"I am not?" He chuckled. "I am not but you smiled."

"Did I?" I chuckled, my tongue in the crook of my cheek. "I don't think I did."

He snorted. "You definitely know you did."

I was about to reply when I heard the s

    Ella's POVLiam snorted. "More like I've been having a nightmare while on my feet. It was a relief when I walked into Andre.""Shall we continue our journey now that we are all together?" Kevin asked, bringing out the map."Let's do that." Damien agreed. "I can't wait to put this whole nightmare behind us." He said with a glance at me.I nodded at him, fully understanding what he meant. We were all here because of my nightmare and I couldn't wait to put it behind me as well."Here!" Kevin said and pointed to a path down the road.I sighed. It was high time we found the path to the tree and get the damn slave mark off my skin. It had been long that I had glanced at my wrist because I didn't want to be disgusted by the sight of my body which was what happened whenever I looked at my wrist, accidentally or intentionally.We had been walking for a long time ever since we got reunited because we didn't want to stay here for any moment longer. My legs were aching and I knew the guys were as

    Ella's POVWe did it. We all cheered, slapping one another on the back as we climbed down the final tree where the snakes couldn't get to us and walked to the Arok tree.I glanced back at the spot where the snakes were and felt like flipping them all the bird. They had thought they could stop us but we were smarter than they were.I placed my hand on my chest, forcing my heart rate to calm down. I had thought I would die there being on top of trees. It hadn't been easy climbing and not look down. It was as if the snakes knew that there was food above them and were uncurling and creating space in their midst like they were eager to have us slip our legs on the trees and drop into their midst."Ella,"I jumped as I heard the sound of my name and looked around, wondering who had called me. I had been so far gone in my thoughts that I couldn't identify who had called me by my name.The men snickered as they looked at one another. "Where are you at?" Kevin asked."I was lost in thought, I

    Ella's POVI heard sounds and as much as I looked back, I didn't see what was running after me. I was terrified and my mouth ran dry as I continued running.I had sweats breaking out on my body and I forced myself to stop looking back so I could run faster. What was wrong with me? I wondered as I looked around my surroundings and continued running. How did I get here? I thought I was with Kevin and the others in the front of tree and wondered how I had suddenly gotten here.Whoosh! I heard a loud deafening sound and gasped as I saw the wind barreling towards me at an alarming speed.I didn't think I recognized where I was. This wasn't the jungle or was it? I didn't think I had seen this place while we were on our journey.If we were still in the jungle, I couldn't understand how I had gotten myself here. Had I hit my head against something and lost my memory? I couldn't have. Even if I had, I was sure that the boys were looking for me.I strained my ears, eager to pick up on the sound

    Kevin's POV "Ella! Ella! Ella!" I shouted as I watched her slip into unconsciousness. My hand with which I was rubbing on her mark fell from her wrist and I grabbed her, shaking her to wake up but she was as stiff as a rock. What was wrong with her? "Ella!" I called out again. Liam placed a hand on my shoulder and I looked up at him with tear-stained eyes, probably looking as helpless as I felt. "You have to keep on cleaning the mark." "She fainted from the pain." Liam nodded to show me he understood my pain but his stare didn't soften. "You have to keep on rubbing the sap on her skin if you want to help her." How could I be helping her by running more of that on her body when it had been the reason she had been in pain and fainted? My hands were scalded from the heat and I couldn't imagine how hot it would be in her blood. She was a strong woman who had to have been in a lot of pain to make her faint. I didn't want to rub anything on her body again. I wanted to scoop her in

    Kevin's POV I didn't want to act paranoid or like I was overreacting but Ella seemed withdrawn. I didn't want to press her for information with what she had just been through. Moreover, I didn't know how bad the battle she had fought had been so I didn't want to remind her of the terror by asking her how it had been for her. I just didn't want her to be silent and have the faraway look she had in her eyes. I wondered what she was thinking of. I slipped my hand into hers, letting her knowing that I was right here with her and she was out of whatever terror was in her head. She looked at me and smiled back. I nodded at her, refusing to comment on how sad the smile in her eyes was. Ella wasn't here yet. She was still in her head and I wondered what could bring her back to the present. I thought of what I knew she liked. I considered telling her a story but she would laugh at me that she wasn't a kid. "Kevin," she whispered. "What?" I glanced at her. "You are holding my hand too ti

    Kevin's POVIt was a fierce battle, tougher than the one we had with him and his family but I didn't for once think that we wouldn't win. I wasn't afraid and was ready to give it all that I've got to send this huge bastard to his grave or he wouldn't let me rest.I believed in war that once I believed that I would lose, it was highly likely that I would lose the battle as my body would want to follow the path that my mind believed in. I couldn't have any smear of failure. Not at all. That was why I always stayed in high spirits and confidence even if the opponent was bigger and stronger than I was.I doubted that the cannibals could exist outside the jungle or they would have gone to the village to wreck havoc on the people there and avenge the death of his family. It was likely their only chance of getting their revenge was here while we were still in the jungle. If we could wound them enough to escape from here, we would be free of them.I raised myself on my hind leg, latching on t

    Kevin's POV"Liam!" I yelled, pulling at his clothes as I kneeled by his side. "Don't you dare die on me."He smiled at me, his teeth shining through the foamy liquid pouring out from his mouth. "My lord." He said and went unconscious.I shook my head and cried out. How could he have the nerve to call me his lord in this situation? He was dying for my mate and was supposed to hate me. How could he think of smiling at this point? I didn't dare think of how I would feel if I lost him.I didn't come here for a barter of lives. I wasn't going to trade the life of my best man for the freedom of my mate. I cradled Liam's hand to mine as tears fell from my eyes and my heart surged with fear.Through the fog of tears filling my eyes, I saw the others lying beside me. I saw the horror and guilt filling Ella's eyes as she knelt by his side, opposite me. I was dejected and couldn't bear to look at her. I knew without a doubt that I was back to what brought me here. Ella was going to have nightma

    Kevin's POV"Let's go together." The men said when the old man left us alone and went back to his house by the outskirts of town.I shook my head. There was no need for that. I thought as I glanced at the map with me. The river wasn't far and the way there wasn't as dangerous as that of the jungle had been. We only needed to walk a long path till we get there and the fewer we were, the faster we could get back."We don't need to go in bunch." I said as I turned to the eager men. "I know you all love Liam and would walk through the fires for him but I would only be taking Ella and Damien with me. The rest of you should help the village doctor and nurse to watch over Liam till we get back. Clean him off, always check up on him and make sure he is comfortable till we are back. Is that okay without everyone?""Yes, my lord." They all echoed with a bow of their heads. "Safe journey.""Thank you." I said and walked outside with the others on my trail.We met the doctor on his way in, rushin

    Maya's POVI looked back at the door with panic as I packed my stuff into a bag. I had to leave here soon if I wanted to stay alive. Those sly girls. I shouldn't have trusted them. They had gone to the palace to check out my story and ended up telling the palace guards what I had told them and now, those ones were at the door threatening to break it down if I didn't open up and follow them to the palace at the order of the alpha's father."Open this door, Maya. We know you are in there." The head guard roared.I shook my head, forcing myself to remain calm through the hysteria I felt. I wouldn't be tricked. They couldn't have known I was in here. I had seen them from afar before they got to the door and rushed to my bedroom to pack my stuff. I had been moving silently through the bedroom as I packed my stuff and dumped them into a travel bag. There was no way they could have heard me even with their supernatural hearing."Maya, by the order of the alpha, we demand that you open this d

    Melody's POV"How did you find me?" I asked once we were back to safety."I got to where we were to meet but didn't find you. I was looking for you with Neo and Nick when I heard you scream and knew something was wrong. I called dad and we traced your scent." Nathan said.I shook my head. Everything he said was confusing. He couldn't have heard me when I was far away. How could he have traced my scent when he didn't have a dog with him?""You brought a dog?" I asked."A dog?" Nick asked, looking confused."You said you traced my scent. Didn't you do that with a dog?"The boys looked at one another and laughed. "I thought you just heard dad say we were werewolves."My eyes rounded with surprise. I wondered how many surprises I was going to have to deal with today. "He wasn't kidding. I thought he was only trying to scare the witch.""My dad doesn't make empty threats."I sucked in a breath. "You are really werewolves? Can you prove it?"The boys looked unsettled. "I don't think that is

    Melody's POV"Why didn't you use the drug I gave you?" She asked.I frowned, wondering what she was talking about. "Which drug?"She snorted. "The drug I gave the other day when you complained of headaches.""I told you I used it.""You lied to me that day and I knew it. If you had used the drug, you would have been dead in the next five minutes after using it."I went pale. "I'm glad I didn't use it.""You left me no choice but to do this. I was trying to make your death painless but I guess you love pain." She smiled."Why do you want to kill me?" I didn't understand her. How could a little girl like her think of killing me?"Why do you hate sweets?""It's bad for me.""Good." She cackled. "I want to kill you because you are bad for me. You can't be allowed to grow up. You would ruin my plans.""How can you know what would happen to me in the future?""Because I know." She smirked and right before my eyes, started changing until she became a grown woman with gnarled fingers and an u

    Melody's POVThe school trip was boring, more than I thought it would be. It wasn't that I had great hopes for it but I hated how I was disappointed.This wasn't it. The teachers should have just given us a free day and told us to stay at home if they didn't want to teach today rather than bringing us to a place as dry as this.The other kids were playing a game to pass the time but I wasn't interested in it. The game was boring to me as well. I stayed off from them so they wouldn't drag me into their boring game against my wish."Why are you here alone?" Nathan asked as he walked towards me.He was alone and I wondered where his brothers were."I was bored. This place is dry." I replied. "I want to go home."He chuckled. "I know. Me too. I can't believe I was looking forward so much to this.""I wasn't." I confessed.He nodded. "Too bad that we can't go home until the teachers say we can.""Why don't we play a game together?" I asked, gearing with excitement as the idea popped into m

    Nathan's POVEve was back immediately the teacher left. "Aren't you excited about the trip? There is so much we can get done."I snorted. So much like what? The girl was too strange for my liking. I had been focused on the dangers of the school trip and didn't remember that Eve was here until she popped her unwanted face again.She turned to Melody, ignoring my snort. "How does your head feel now? Have you taken the drug?" She asked."Yes, my head feels better now. Thank you.""You used the drug?" Eve asked, confirming she had heard right."Yes." Melody lied. The drug was on the ground, under her shoe."I didn't see you take it.""Were you watching her?" I frowned."I was worried about her." Eve replied."I took it immediately you turned your back and walked back to your seat. I slipped it into my mouth then."Eve stared at Melody for a long time, looking as if she didn't believe her. Eventually, she nodded to herself and walked back to her seat without a word.I frowned. "You should

    Maya's POVI was brimming with excitement and anxiety that both emotions bothered on hyperactivity. I felt like a child again. I felt like I was finally living after all these days of feeling dead and numb.Who could have believed that it was Kevin and Ella who made me go numb and dead inside and it was also because of them that I would feel alive again?I was excited. This was my chance to get back at Kevin for breaking my heart and Ella for stealing the position that belonged to me.I loved karma. I couldn't believe it was finally working for me after all these years and deciding to fight on my behalf. They shouldn't have messed with me. In Kevin's next life, I hoped he would think twice before hurting another female.The only person I felt for in this revenge scheme of mine was Liam but I didn't care much about him as much as I cared about what I was to do. He was going to be affected as he was always by Kevin's side and also going to be heartbroken as he was an annoyingly loyal be

    Neo's POVMelody had to be kidding me. How could she have brought another person into our circle? This wasn't the time to get friendly with strangers. She didn't even know this girl for up to a day and she was already being friends with her and having her eat with us. I couldn't believe her guts. She was unbelievable.For all I knew, this girl was not an ordinary girl. I forced myself to calm down, reminding myself that she didn't know of the dangers that lay ahead of her. She didn't know that she had to be careful and was being her usual bubbly self. It wasn't her fault that I had begun to suspect everyone and everyone that crossed my path. It wasn't her fault at all.I looked at Eve and wondered if she was oblivious to how my brothers and I felt about her or was just trying to be stubborn. She would have known since that we weren't open to her being here with our scowls and I thought that she would have excused herself.Wouldn't it be better for her to leave and eat alone than eat h

    Melody's POV"Can we eat lunch together?" She suddenly asked, just before we got to class."I... I uh..." I didn't know what to say. I didn't know how to tell her that I already made plans for lunch so it wouldn't seem like I was trying to reject her."I am not trying to do anything." She began.I frowned, wondering what she meant by that. I never said she was trying to do anything.She continued. "The thing is, I have a lot of friends at the school where I transferred from and I'm not used to eating alone. You seem kind and moreover, you were the first person to smile at me here and that was why I thought that we could be friends. I only asked if we could eat lunch together because I already see you as a friend."I sighed. She was extremely chatty but I preferred that to her crying. I understood what she was trying to say and found myself nodding in agreement before thinking it through. I knew how much it sucked to eat alone in a large gathering of people. It was awkward feeling to f

    Melody's POVThe boys had adapted to being my friends again and I was relieved that I didn't have to worry about them suffocating me with their overprotectiveness."Where should we hang out during break time?" I asked them as we saw one another in the morning and moved towards the school entrance."Take care of yourself, kids." Uncle Liam said and waved as he turned and walked away from us."Should we hang out in the garden?" Neo suggested. "I love the smell of flowers.""Me too." I agreed, smiling at them. "I also love flowers." I also loved being in the garden with the boys. They knew so much about flowers that I always learn something new from them. I wondered where they had learned about flowers from.The bell rang to signify the start of the classes and I watched as our homeroom teacher walked in, with a new student by her side.The girl seemed shy and I felt my heart move towards her. I remembered how nervous I had been on my first day here as well, wondering what my new classma
