MayIf I dare be honest with myself, I have probably been trudging along this dark track for days now and still, I see nothing. No light and no other soul. I am completely alone in this place.I am beginning to fear for my sanity. How long will I be able to hold on? My hope is diminishing by the day. Why is fate playing such a cruel joke on me?I have no problem with dying but why should I be forced to reside in such despair just because I am dead? Now I wonder what sin must I have committed and be punished for this severely. No matter how much I try to think about it, I cannot seem to recall anything. I have always been obedient and respectful. I have helped those in need and donated a lot to the underprivileged. Even though I was just a high school student, I worked at a diner as a waitress. From my measly wages, I made sure to share with those who were destitute. Not once have I been in a fight with anyone. I tried my best to avoid confrontations. Although my mother was horrible
Second ChanceMayOf course, I cannot stay underwater more than required. Even though I am dead, my mindset has not adjusted. I am still scared of drowning. Therefore I come out of the water and draw in the much-needed breath. Since there is no soap or towel, I just use my hands to run off the dirt. I also take my clothes and attempt to wash them in the lake. To my astonishment, the blood is washed off clean. As if the lake has some bleach in it. I thought my attempts would be futile but I was wrong. I guess this place is truly magical. I am again shocked at how quickly they dry the moment I hang them on the nearest shrub. Mouth agape, I put my clothes on and take slow steps toward the ethereal goddess. Of course, she just has to be a goddess. No human being can ever be that stunning. I can swear on that. I could have sworn with my life but it no longer exists so that would be cheating. "There you are, dear child. As good as new. Now it is time to send you back to your loved ones
Alpha Martinez Bittersweet is all I can say to describe what I am feeling. I am twenty-three years old and for an alpha wolf, I am way past the age to find my mate. Fate smiled at me and I met my fated mate but I found her as she was knocking on death's door.How then can I rejoice in this kind of situation? Others feel a tremendous amount of relief when they find their mates whereas I have to keep my fingers crossed and hold my breath. My mate is hanging by a thread as it is. The truth is I do not even know if she will regain her consciousness or just slip over to the afterlife. I found her badly injured and barely breathing. All that I am holding on to now is hope. I have faith in our creator and hope that she will not leave me broken. Therefore I still believe that she will have to perform some sort of miracle to bring my mate back to me. The injuries she suffered are so bad that even a werewolf could die from them. I am quite astounded by how strong my petite mate is. The fact
May I stare at the handsome Adonis staring lovingly at me and I just can not look away. I take my time memorizing every feature of his face and locking it in my memory banks. If this is just a dream, I want to be able to remember it and savor this moment.Only when a doctor comes into view do I snap out of it. This cannot be a dream. I am truly in the hospital and very much alive. Something clicks in my mind and I move my eyes looking at everyone surrounding my bed. Sure enough, the moon goddess did not lie to me. These are the same faces I saw when I was in that enchanting garden. She did tell me that everyone has been praying for me. I open my mouth wanting to speak but my voice just won't give in. The older lady sees it and gets me a glass of water and a straw. Before she can even hand me the glass of water, the dark-haired man snatches it and bolsters me up. Then he gives me the water himself. Honestly, I think that was quite rude of him but when I see a knowing smile on the la
Alpha Martinez How does one express their in-depth gratitude? It is overwhelming and satisfying. I have a reason to rejoice and I will tell it to the world. I do not care that our neighbors abhor humans. As for my mate, I will treasure her and show the world that the mate bond has nothing to do with race. Who am I to question my creator? I was raised well, therefore I know how to appreciate and treasure gifts. That is all I will do henceforth till my last breath. I know that my mate is special even if she is just a human. There is a reason why fate chose to pair the two of us. I hope it is for the greater good of both our races. Had she not been important, why else would the moon goddess show her face to her?I was stuck in a dilemma when she woke up wondering how I will tell her about us. Even my mother and beta were impressed by her calmness when she let us know that she is well aware of our true identity. That is a whole new level of maturity on its own. Her calmness and accepta
May I may not understand a lot of things about the ways of my new family, but I can feel that their acceptance and love for me are genuine. This is my third day after I came out of the coma. Everything is going well so far and I can't complain. There is one thing though that I am not sure of. My connection to their alpha. From the day I woke up, he has been showing me extra care. It almost feels as if my life is tied to his. Yesterday he made such a ruckus when he returned and did not see me in the room. Another thing is since I got discharged from the hospital, he insisted on my staying in his room. No one objected. Not even me. For some reason, I actually felt good that I would be spending my nights in his room. The absurdity of it all is how my body reacts when he is in close proximity. I feel drawn to him and I imagine what it would be like to be embraced by him. I swear, I have been having some weird pull on this guy, and it is quite unsettling.The worst thing is that I rea
Alpha Martinez They enunciate the rarity of patience amongst our kind and I utterly agree. However, my endurance has been tested repeatedly of late and I am beginning to fear for my sanity.I am a predator and one of our shortcomings is the lack of patience. We have heightened senses and that alone makes it harder for us to wait patiently for anything. However, for my mate, I have even learned to be as docile as a little puppy. I recall how extensively she was worried about what she felt for me. As an alpha wolf, I tend to feel everything ten times more than ordinary wolves. What my little mate does not know is how many constraints I have had to apply for her sake. Normally, when wolves meet their mate, it is not surprising to complete the mate bond right away. It is only natural. One does not need to get to know their mate to indulge. We just follow our instinct. Once we mate and mark each other, the mate bond is completed. In that instant, one gets to know their mate's innermost
May These four days have been the most blissful days of my life. My mate has been by my side every day and I loved every bit of it. Leslie took me shopping and I felt like a rich pampered kid. I never knew that there are people who enter a shop and just pick without bothering about the price tag. He made sure to tell the sales lady to pack anything I took a fancy to. Be it designer clothes, bags, or fancy skincare products, he paid for them without batting an eye. I also remember years ago when I was still a little girl. My dad used to do the same. He would get anything I wanted for me as long as it caught my fancy.I quickly brush it off because I do not want to bring back the hurtful memories. All was well until he married that monstrous woman. He did not even get to live over two years after their marriage. Sigh. Let me not dwell on that for now. I have some packing to do. We are off to an alpha meeting and I have to look like a luna. I so love this title. It makes me feel speci
MayI may have grown up in the human realm and lived like any other normal human child. However, my life has been anything but normal. Looking back, my life has really been a rollercoaster of way too many coincidences. Over the years, I learned to live with my pain. I had no choice but to adapt and move forward. In the face of injustices, I had to swallow my pride and stifle my own individuality. Such was the life I had to lead for many years. Not once, did I ever think that I would one day be happy and have a say in anything that concerns me? My life has always been one where I follow orders or get hurt. Mine was a life full of misery and pain. Happiness was taboo.Even after facing so many near-death experiences, I somehow pulled through. All this, I attribute to being just plain lucky. However, now that I have met my mate and had a deeper conversation with the moon goddess, I do not believe in coincidences anymore. I have not been coincidentally lucky as I presumed. I have been
May I don't think I will ever view my son as just my baby. He is my savior, my hope, and the reason why I am still breathing today. He truly became my beacon in the darkest of times. My light at the end of the tunnel. After narrating to everyone what happened for the past three days I had been unconscious, everyone was baffled. Well, I could sense different reactions from each of them. Awe, disbelief, envy but overall, there was pronounced relief. I can easily decipher the reason for this relief. No one wants to be clueless about what happens around them. Therefore, they were relieved to know how it all started. Honestly, I am relieved as well. Knowing that it was in a way my son's plight that moved the gods to act in my favor, makes my heart melt. I know that the love I have for my son is just way too deep and immense. This little champion is my benefactor. Since my wings have retracted, my language has returned back to normal. I guess it will switch back to that ancient language
May Well, every word that has come out of the moon goddess's mouth has been nothing short of an eye-opener. This world is surely full of mystery. According to Selene, when my son's blood mixed with mine, as I was on the verge of death, he turned me into a wolf by default. However, as he also experienced agony in those few moments, he broke free from the darkness and embraced the light of the angels. His umbilical cord was still attached to me. Therefore, the light of the angels penetrated through the umbilical cord. I shake my head trying to process what she has just said but fail. I look at her once more and she sees my confusion and explains to me, one more time. "Do not be surprised dear child. Two powers converged and entered your body at the same time. Your son's blood and the angel's halo. A werewolf has the power to turn a gravely injured human into a wolf. Thereby giving them their rapid healing ability. Normally, this is done with the hope of reviving the dying person. I
May "As Ramos slit you open, life slowly slipped out of you. Your son, although he was quickly pulled out, he also felt the cold hands of death as they wrapped around your soul. He requested the universe, to preserve your life." When Selene mentions this, I feel a cold shiver shake my whole being. I already know that the supernatural world is full of magic, just not to this extent. How can I come around the fact that an infant could make such an instantly answered request like that? I look up at the moon goddess, trying to see if she is bluffing or not. However, the solemn look on her face makes me believe that she is being honest. Oh, snap! What am I even thinking? Could a goddess even waste her breath lying to me? Could it be that this is the reason why she painstakingly elucidated the sacredness of the bond? Slowly, slowly, everything is beginning to make sense now. I am glad I did not rush her or interrupt her from the beginning. Had I done so, I definitely would have been fre
May I have no idea how long we have been sitting here since in this realm, time seems to be stagnant. I have not uttered a word since my first question to the moon goddess. I am not in a hurry therefore, I cannot urge her to just talk to me. She knows what is best for me and she will tell me all I need to hear. For now, I will enjoy the silence and ponder on the information she has just given me. Selene, the moon goddess, seems to be lost in thought. I wonder what it is that she does not wish to disclose to me. It seems like whatever she has to tell me is something deeper than I presumed. Things surely are not as simple as they appear. Her silence is beginning to rouse a bit of anxiety in me. After what seemed to be a very long stretch of sheer silence, she finally turned her attention to me. This time around, she holds my hand and resumes talking. Her gentle voice soothes all the anxiety away and I am grateful for that. "Dear child, even though I tried to ease up your misfortune
May I kept staring at the moon goddess waiting for her to carry on. By now, her story has captivated me. Although she has not explained anything fully, I still feel that I need to hear this. Once again, she stares into space and I know that she is lost in her own thoughts. As she spaces out, I try to process what she has been trying to tell me, and I still can't figure it out. What exactly did she mean by her explanation? No matter how hard I try, her explanation remains vague. Until today, I had no idea that even gods had a hierarchy. She mentioned that the gods of a higher power are the ones that decided my fate. To put it in her words, the gods decided to rewrite my fate. The main question is why? However, until Selene decides to open up to me, I will not be able to answer myself. Looking back at the past year of my life, I fail to grasp the meaning of the incidents that occurred in my life. Everything that happened was surreal, to say the least. I never believed in the superna
May Although I feel upset about being alone in this room, I understand that they need to talk. Especially now that I have turned out to be more than just a mere human. I also need to understand what exactly happened for me to turn into a seraph. I never thought that my life would take such a huge twist. I guess whoever is writing my life story has a twisted mind. The gods, or fate, or whoever it is out there, really enjoy toying with my emotions. If only there was a way of foreseeing how the future would turn out! Unfortunately, in this life, someone else holds the reins and we just have to roll with the punch. There is no one to question why neither is there any way to refuse that which is thrust upon us. Lying on my belly, although usually very comfortable, becomes quite unnerving when I know that it is the only position viable. As for my shoulder blades, they are so painful that any slight movement hurts me so badly. Anyway, since the seraph said I will be okay, then I just have
May Everything has become subjugating and anxiety-inducing. How did I turn from plain old me to this dazzling heavenly creature in the blink of an eye?Not once did I even dream that a day would come when my life would change so drastically? Of course, I knew that being mates to a werewolf would come with its challenges. However, I did not for once, think that I would become one of the supernatural beings. I knew that my parents were royals but that was just it. I neither wanted to claim the rights to the throne nor go back to a place where nothing but sorrow awaits me. I have been content with my life since I met my mate, Leslie Martinez. Yes, we have had our fair share of problems and it has been hard. Nonetheless, we have managed to pull through every challenge. Some of the problems I have faced in the short time that I spent in the werewolf realm have been torturous. However, with each hurdle, we managed to grow closer. It is precisely because we became closer that we agreed
Manny ReynoldsWhen Summer called me to visit the Royal Pack, I did not think much of it. I just thought that there were issues she needed to discuss with me in person.I took my mate along and Aria insisted on bringing Scarlett as well. Did I find their friendship odd? Of course, I did. These two were like fire and ice in the beginning. From the very first time my mate set foot in the Luminous pack, Scarlett Sawyer did not like her. They even fought on her first day of joining Luminous High school. Scarlett despised my mate because back then, everyone thought Aria was just a mere human. Luckily, my mate was not a pushover. She handed it to them in style. Heck, she even beat up both the Sawyer siblings as well as their dad. When I got to the school, I was shocked when I saw the damage she had caused. Her wolf hid so well that not even my dad and uncle could tell that she was one of us. Nonetheless, I was overjoyed to have finally met my mate. Her mother, Henna, turned out to be, doc
