Ivelle’s POVMaybe I was going insane. Hallucinating again? No, but I could see this person in front of me, coming to torment me. What on earth do you want from me? I wanted to ask but nothing could come from my throat. I felt like my voice had been sealed off yet again. “Your curiosity keeps pulling me in don't you think?” the individual said, squatting before me. Almost instantly, it was as if no one was there again. I was once again in the hallway, seated on the floor and staring into space. “What's going on with you Ivelle?” I heard Koe’s voice. I slowly turned to look at him heading towards me in an apron and a frown on his face. “I wanted to come ask what you wanted to eat and now you're on the floor–” I didn't reply to him and just stood up, wiping my dress as I trembled slightly. I was just going crazy. It was yet another time I was saved from almost being dead or whatever would happen to me if that stranger had touched me again. “Don't talk to me.” I snapped at Koe, headi
Ivelle's POV I got out of the car, staring at the tall building where the little party for important female wolves of the pack would be held. It looked like a luxurious hotel and I wasn't wrong about it. “The party would be held on the rooftop, my Luna.” The guard the twins had assigned to me, Jones, informed me as he held the door out for me. Since we've been riding together, he seemed to notice little details to inform me about and I am most certainly grateful for someone caring for me even if it is only out of duty. We walked into the hotel and we first headed to the reception desk where the attendant stared at me like I was in the wrong place although dressed for the occasion. “I'm sorry, but whatever you're here for, we don't offer it.” “What–” I lifted my hand, stopping Jones from speaking and he did as I asked before I smiled, turning to look at the lady. “And what do you think I am here for?” I asked, pulling, looking for a card in my purse and before she could reply, I p
Kian’s POV“Do you think she'll be okay? Just throwing her amid this crazed woman? I think it might be too much for her, Kian.” Koe said, sitting on the sofa in my office while he sorted out some papers.“You spoil her too much, Koe. If she can't handle that much, she isn't suited to be our Luna.” I kissed my teeth, not bothering to look up from my work. “She doesn't even want to be in the first place so I think she won't be okay.” Koe reminded me but I just ignored him. Who on earth wouldn't want to be mates of Koe and I? All she was doing might just be an act but although it doesn't seem like it. Why wouldn't she drop the topic of leaving? Do we irritate her that much? I could say I do but Koe had always been caring to her so why would she not just let go of whatever she has in her mind and just cooperate? “Damn it all.” I cursed, slamming the pen in my hand on the table as I stood up. I stormed towards the coffee table to make myself some coffee. “Cut down on the late-night coff
Kian's POV The anger of losing my balance drowned me as her little figure melted beneath me. I couldn't tell what it was I felt but it felt like I let my guard down for a minute. I was about to pull away when she wrapped her arms around my neck, pulling me closer and I felt like I was weak against her advances. Damn it, what's wrong with me. I pulled away instantly but her grip around my neck didn't loosen one bit. “Ivelle let go,” I said, placing the back of my hand against my lips, the softness of hers still lingering. I quickly shook it out of my head but it became impossible when I felt her squish her body against mine. “Is it me… hic… or it's hot…” she asked her face flushed with a drunken smile. “You look handsome.” “I know,” I replied, reluctantly scooping her into my arms as I walked towards the exit. “Why did you get this drunk? You stink?” I groaned and from the corner of my eyes, I saw her pout as her grip around my neck tightened a little. “You don't… hic… tell a lady
Ivelle's POV The bright rays of sunlight shone directly in my face as I opened my eyes, forcing me to close my eyes. How much did I drink exactly? I groaned before pulling myself up in bed, rubbing my eyes with a slight yawn. Wait, a bed? I couldn't remember returning to one. I looked around to notice I was in my bedroom back in the mansion and I was no longer dressed in the fancy part dress I had been given for last night but now in my nightwear. I swung my feet off the bed, slipping into my slippers as I headed towards the bathroom to look at myself. I truly was in my nightwear with my hair messily done. I tried as much as possible to remember what happened last night after getting drunk but it was all foggy. I remembered heading to the part after the encounter with that strange man in the bathroom and then the women mocking me behind my back during the event. I had enough of it and just headed towards a private lounge and continued to drink till I got drunk. Suddenly, a bri
Ivelle’s povI was taken aback by his words and stared with my mouth gaped open. “Bad how do you think babies are made with the flimsy attitude you display?” I frowned at them. “You had better find another option because that isn’t happening with me.”“What makes you think you have a choice?” He scorned, leaning on a text while gazing at me.“It’s my body so I decide whether or not I want to have a child and I certainly won’t be having it with you.” I snapped back, gritting my teeth as I clenched my fists together. He was getting more and more on my nerves.“Oh darling, soon you’ll be begging me to be in you.” Koe chuckled beside me.“No…I’ll make sure to cut off those tiny rods you have so this thought never crosses your mind again.”“You’re Luna and you have to fulfill your duties, I do t have time to ramble on and on with you so get prepared,” Liam instructed while making his way towards the door but stopped in his tracks and turned towards me. “I’m sore you won’t be able to argue
Ivelle’s povI jumped in shock at the sound of the voice.“What are you doing here?” I arched my brows, not expecting him “Didn’t know you had that in you.” Koe’s expression was mixed with that of admiration and surprise but that wasn’t compared to what I felt at the moment. I had put those crazy women in their place and felt a sense of pride in me, knowing they couldn’t dare look down on me again.“What are you doing here? You’ve come to talk about how crazy I am as a Luna and how I shouldn’t have spoken to them?” I raised my brow with a slight frown on my lips as I watered for his response.Koe stepped forward with a commanding presence, staring at me silently. “Respect is something you earn and not command, until you understand how not works, you have only embarrassed yourself self in front of this woman.” Kian’s voice interrupted us, I turned around to see him walking towards me with his usual disdainful gaze.“I’m not here to follow the rules.” I shot back at him. “You forced m
Ivelle’s POV “Who are you?” I questioned, furrowing my brows while squinting my eyes to get a proper glance at them but it seemed almost impossible because aside from their cloaks, there was nothing more to see. “Did you not hear right?”Seeing that there was no response from them, I got even more bothered, as the moon slowly let itself hide in the clouds, it’s dim light slowly disappeared as well, the wind caused the leaves to rustle, and I could hear my heart pound so heavily it could erupt from my ears. My fists clenched as I desperately looked around in hopes that I could get someone to help me out of this situation but I had ventured deep into the garden that no one would even realize I was here.Beads of sweat slowly trickled down my face despite the cool breeze, I could feel something was wrong and I desperately wanted to leave this place.“Leave?” A sinister voice laughed, echoing through the rustling wind that surrounded us. I remained rooted to the ground unable to move, my
Fayra’s POV What is that witch doing here? Why would Mavros bring her back?Sweat dripped down my face as I paced back and forth in my room, biting my lower lip as thoughts ran through my mind. My lips curved into a frown as my mind was filled with worry.“Did she know the truth and want to tell him about it?” I thought out loudly, if that were the case then I would need to silence her before she can make her move.How do I do that without being caught by him? Earlier when I had walked out, I noticed how heavily guarded the area was so there was no way I would be able to enter there without sparing some attention or even being refused to enter by the guards.Plopping on my bed I let out a deep sigh of frustration as an overwhelming feeling ravaged me. I stared at the ceiling as though it held answers for me yet it was empty.“I can help you out.” A voice erupted out of nowhere, startling me as I hid under the sheets of my bed, peeking my head out while looking around but there was no
Ivelle’s POV Slowly regaining my consciousness, I looked around and immediately knew where I was, I jumped from the bed and banged the jail bars, getting the attention of the jail guards. “What the hell do you think you’re doing?” He barked harshly. “Get me out of here right now!” I screamed in fury. “I need to leave right now.” “Shut it you bitch! Who told you to bark this loud and disturb everyone?” He shot back, equally annoyed as I was— no! He was trying to intimidate me. Clenching my jaws I remained silent, moving back to the bed, and sat there hopelessly, why do I have to go through so much trouble? All I wanted was to be alone but guess who has such immense bad luck— me! Where was Mavros? What does he want with me? Our relationship ended a long time ago so why would he want me here? Frustration ran through my blood. Rubbing my belly, I was determined to leave, there was no way I would sit back and lose another child! Not this time. I had so many unanswered quest
Ivelle's povDarting my eyes open, I slowly looked around and found myself in a small shade under a tree. Gently getting up, I looked around in confusion and wondered if I had been caught.I had expected this to be over with me dying so why did they save me? Are they that desperate to watch me die by their hands?Slowly getting up, my entire body ached in pain but that wasn’t enough for me to be glued to the floor, walking outside, I saw I was the only one in the middle of the woods. I was even more curious as to how I had gotten here but nothing here was telling me how.I quickly felt my stomach and was relieved that my child was still alive hunger overwhelmed me suddenly but there was nothing here that seemed edible. Just a bunch of wild mushrooms and green grass beneath tall trees.Standing was almost unbearable since my feet were sore and still freshly bleeding from when I had cut myself while running away from them.Twisting my mouth, I looked around for certain plants to heal my
Ivelle’s POV Snapping my eyes open I panted in exhaustion as sweat engulfed my entire body. i had just found my true origin and I am not able to accept that my whole liege was all a lie . A big fat lie!Or was that person trying to trick me and make me fall into a trap?I’m a werewolf who is yet to get her wolf, how could I be a witch? It’s all a lie!“It’s about time you woke up.” Koe’s voice erupted, distruptingbmy trainnof thoughts.“What are you doing here?” I questioned while looking around the sealed dungeon with heavy iron bars. “Why am I here?”“Do I need remind you about your crimes?” He arched his brows in dissapointment, dropping the file he was reading in a table in the corner.“I had nothing to do with that!” I argued. “I’m innocent.”“You know one fact about witches?” He tilted his head to the side. “They tend to lie a lot…. I hate lies!”I remained silent , watching him as he continued to speak, I began to wonder how long I had been knocked out and what my fate was. I
Ivelle’s POV There’s no way I can do that, my hands trembled at the sight of him, I barely even knew him so how could I have that much resentment to even kill him?“Acting all innocent are we?” Kamari snickered, glaring at me with so much hatred, unlike the way she smiled at me.“I didn’t do it!” I claimed none of them seemed to believe me, Koe gazed at me quietly and for a moment I thought he would at least believe me.“Please believe me,” I muttered, tears clouding my eyes as I gazed at him, hoping he would at least listen to me but that wasn’t the case, his gaze hardened as he stared at me in disdain.“Then how do you explain his dead body under your bed?” He growled.“I- I don’t know.” The tears slipped down my cheeks as I recalled all that had happened earlier this morning, I was in such a hurry that I didn’t take note of anything I’m my room, could it be that someone had taken advantage of this and framed me up? But who could that be? I haven’t made any enemy here.I tried to t
Ivelle’s POV “What?” I froze on the bed. Why? Now of all times?“Their majesties will be very happy to hear this great news.” He smiled delightfully.“Do not say a word to them,” I ordered him instantly before grabbing my purse and sprinting out of the room. I can’t keep this, I already lost one and I wasn’t ready to carry another. Why did they have to be so inconsiderate?Hot tears clouded my eyes as I ran out of the hospital, I needed to breathe, anywhere but here. But where do I go? Everywhere reminded me of them. Taking out my phone I dialed Kamari’s number, she was the only one that could bring me out of despair at this moment. I was confused and hopeless at the moment, I didn’t want to do anything crazy.Continuously dialed her number but there was no response, that’s when I decided to meet up with Kian to tell him what he had just pushed me into. I made my way to his office, ignoring the guards who tried to hold me back.“My Luna, you can’t be in there at the moment, his majes
Ivelle’s POV My mind was a mess and so was my body, I was barely holding myself up, and having two of them in me, really took a toll on me. To clear my mind of things, I decided to go to the royal museum and have time to think about my next line of action.Walking in, I felt some relief in me, sunlight streamed through the towering glass roof windows. Gazing around the various artifacts that laid in perfect order and structure. I wasn’t interested in any of this but they somewhat seemed appealing to gaze out. They held every memory of the pack, their values, their honors, and the rest.The air was thick and heavy but I didn’t seem to want to leave already. Watching others gaze at it as they walked by, this place was only open to high-status individuals and was swam with more than enough security to ensure nothing happened.“You don’t look familiar.” A voice called out to me, I turned my head to see who it was, almost immediately and stopped upon a nice-looking young lady, in a fitted
Ivelle’s povDarting my eyes open, I instantly felt I ate we pain in my lower region and all parts of my body, I scrunched up, groaning in pain.“Damn it! Why do you feel this way.” I frowned in annoyance, gently getting myself out of bed but crashed to the floor. I hissed in frustration, trying to recall what I had done last night to warrant this, that was when it occurred to me that I had drunk so much last night. But I can’t possibly cause me to end up like this.I stayed on the floor for a while before summoning the strength to get up and make my way towards the mirror. The sight before me was enough to send me to my death. Why the hell was I naked and filled with a lot of bruises? In my confusion, an arm snaked around my waist and a head leaned on my shoulders, a wave of fear washed over me as I tried to make sense of what was happening.“You’re beautiful Ivelle, every part of you is.” Koe’s breath tickled my nape as I stared in shock.“With you?” I mouthed in surprise. “What d
Ivelle’s pov Bright light glistened before me, before blasting me away, I fell to the floor grunting in pain, I blinked profusely before getting up hastily and looking around but quietly followed, I couldn’t sense them around again.That was the least of my worries for now, what had I done?” Gazing at my hand they trembled. How was I able to do that? Questions danced before me but I couldn’t explain how that had happened.Why are they after me? What do they know that I don’t? Am I— a monster?I crashed to the floor on my knees, trying hard to breathe steadily before gazing up at the sky, desperate for an answer and I was woven into a bed of secrets yet to be discovered. Hearing footsteps I quickly hid, if someone discovered me, it could be bad for me because I could be deemed a witch.I glanced around but no one seemed to appear, I took that as my cue and Tran off, I quickly cleaned up myself before making my way back to the event hall.“Where were you?” Koe's voice rang, taking me b
