I am in the realm of dream, where fantasy feels like reality. Where being a princess without a prince is possible. Where summoning a storm without being wrecked by it is within a reach of the hand.

I am dreaming. I am sure of it.

Or am I not?

I look around, let my senses see and hear and touch and taste and smell everything.

I can feel the heat of the sun, taste the cool wind around me, and hear the rustling of the leaves in the Misty Forest. I can see the bright green leaves, the wide grass field beckoning me to feel its natural softness. I can smell the fragrance of after-rain, of petrichor and—

“Someone’s cooking,” I turn to my heel and search for the origin of the scent. The smell is from roasted pork belly, seasoned with what smells like pepper and salt and rosemary. And butter.

I can see a tiny house in the distance, smoke coming out in its chimney. Is that a farmhouse? A cattle, the sound of chickens a

    Days passed and I spent those preparing for the wedding like any other mortal bride, while Grandmama Jane tutored me in the afternoon at the Lodge of the Luna on what are a Luna’s duties aside from spreading legs and bearing babies. “…and most of all, love him. As if he’s the half of your soul.” “I am indeed half of her soul.” I do not need to turn around to know that it is Tyler’s dark, erotic voice. “For Stella’s sake, Tyler, wear a shirt!” Jane complained. The grandson only chuckled. “Why not? My Luna would like to see this, don’t you, Elaine?” I swallowed my shame, doubtful whether I should shake my head or give Tyler a nod. “She says no.” I met Grandmama’s eyes. Tyler narrowed his towards his grandmother and then to me. Then the bastard took off his jeans, throwing it to me before light flashed in my eyes. A figure of a white wolf galloped outside, hurrying to get out the High Priestess’ radar.

    After almost ten minutes of waiting for her and her dismissal so I can go home and give Tyler a blowing, she was finally back. “Grandmama?” The night is now bright. But the High Priestess has not yet turned on the lights, only the sole candle shining between us illuminates the Lodge of the Luna. The loud sound of bells ringing echoed inside, and on the outside. “Intruders! Intruders!” Heart-shattering shouts from around us made me flinch. Panic starts to swirl inside me. I jerked my head, the face of Jane Moonstorm eventually warping to something…a wolf-like entity that stood like a man but with ram horns and bat-like hands and arms towering over me. ‘Selena, help me,’ I prayed. The candle went out. The light went out. The fire, the only element that can scare them away, went out. Everything is utterly dark, the thick coldness is suffocating. The fragrance of death sent me crumbling from the chair and

    Elaine’s POVA traitor is inside Stella’s Soul. Is my dream a premonition or— “It can’t be…” I murmured to the midnight wind; it’s cold but not suffocating. “B—But who could be betraying us? Could you find that out? Could Jason and Grandmama Jane find it out?” Tyler slowed me down. The High Priestess reached for my hand, “Just leave it to him and our pack, dear.” Her eyes darted to the Alpha of the Amber Pack.***Though it wasn’t my fault, I still felt guilty. I have been marked by the Hearteaters since birth. Once again, my ignorance almost cost someone’s life. First it was the beach accident that killed the Rutherfords and my pet dog Joey, and now… Does my arrival in Stella’s Soul put the lives of the wolves here at risk? ‘You cannot escape your fate—our fate...’ The words directly from the tongue of Eliane, the Forest Witch, ringed in my ears. ‘I must go now, Ruel. I must make peace with them and undo my creation befor

    Tyler’s POVMy brother waited for five minutes for someone inside the arena to come forward and reveal it was them, eventually confessing why they let three shitty heart-eating beasts enter Stella’s Soul. ‘A liar will never confess the truth unless he or she is tortured, ‘til one see the face of death smiling at them,’ Remus breathed into my soul. My wolf’s words of wisdom sent a grin blooming across my poker face. And even when the timer runs out, as expected—as we have anticipated, no one moves forward. And that’s why we resorted to the latter of Remus’ advice: torture.***Elaine’s POVEvery breath I take makes me anxious even more. Only one of us inside the arena could be the mole. Stella’s Soul is a village where basically those who are only a member can enter due to a gold-plated card handed out to everyone, even to me. And they can invite anyone as long as the invitee is with the member upon crossing Selena

    “It was Rowena. It was her who betrayed us.” Hearing those words from Tyler himself as I look up, hearing his voice as he confirmed to me that she really is the one makes the chain of thorns around my heart wrap even tighter. My torned heart and grieving mind begged to reject and not believe any of these, any of these that happened tonight. But truth always stabs harder and leaves a deeper wound than lies. ‘Truth always hurts…’ That same unknown voice whispered to me again. ‘So now you must choose wisely…’ My throat bobbed at the last words. Is that Eliane all along? “Elaine!” Rowena shouted my name. “Get the fuck away from my wife, Rowena!” I look up at Rowena’s astonished but hurt face, who tried to pick me from the ground as my tears continue to stream down from my eyes. She backed away. And before I knew it, Jose made her kneel, making her knees bleed. I can see the pain in her eyes as the chain th

    ‘She…will…always…be…remembered…’ Those words echoed in my ears like some sort of death bell that made my world stop in an instant. “Wha—What are you going to do with Rowena?” I tried to remain composed and unbothered. But deep down, I am panicking. My emotions are absolutely fucked up. If what my guess is true of what they are going to do, knowing that wolves and werewolves are brutal and savage by nature, I will never forgive myself if I will not step in and stop the Alphas. And perhaps betray them as well—betray Jason, betray Karlos, and…‘Betray, Tyler...’ That same voice murmured into me as if it’s just beside me. The hair on my arms rose, sending shivers down my spine. But Tyler only stood from my gilded bed, walking away from my question and shutting my bedroom door close, leaving me with the now-cold tray of breakfast sitting in my lap.***I shove every boiled egg, cereals soaked in chocolate milk, porridge, and bacon in my mouth

    “Meah’s approaching.” His breath is as warm as the sauna in my ears. “I’m surprised you know the name of every staff member here, huh.” He then kissed my forehead. “I was born here, Elaine. I even know the names of their children and their children’s children.” When Tyler mentioned the word children, I remembered I do not see them often ever since I arrived. “Why don’t I see them often?” “Do you remember the Luna’s Lake?” “Yes.” “The children’s lair is behind that, cloaked with magic. Don’t worry; they will go outside as part of our entourage.” “Wait. Did the children see us that night?” The smoke suddenly thickens near the door. Tyler faced me and wiggled his cock in a goodbye motion of the hand. Light flashed and I heard a thud on the ground outside. I was about to lean outside the window when the wooden door burst open. “What the—” Meah blurted upon seeing the thick smoke. “Why the hell

    “The wedding dress is the trend nowadays. It’s called a mermaid-style wedding gown.” It’s so white that, I presume if I walk down the aisle later at midnight, I’ll be the shining beacon amidst the dark of night. It has no sleeves and has a huge V-cut by the breasts. As I survey the wedding gown, I look at my chest, calculating how revealing my cleavage would be. “I thought my wedding gown would be a conservative one?” Nicole raised a brow. “Nah, why hide something your Alpha would very much love to see?” He and Melissa clapped and I was left pouting. “And what exactly is that something?” I crossed my arms. “Your tits.” Melissa chuckled. “Shh, Melissa.” But my soon-to-be sister-in-law remained giggling. “It’s you. Your beauty. The shape of you, raw and dazzling. So flaunt it, girl! We are no longer in the conservative era—we are now in the cleavage era!” “Okay.” I don’t know if I

    This is my fucking third book, which took me almost six months to finish. *laughing devilishly* You might be surprised why this has a sad/shocking ending. But I’d like to point out that not all stories end in “happily ever after”. I look forward to expanding the story of Elaine and Tyler. But as long as it does not harbor enough readers, the ending remains as it is. If ever enough readers would demand a sequel or a better love story between Elaine and Tyler, then I shall provide you/them a story that will fulfill happiness and give justice to the characters. I’m sorry if this story ends this way as there are things that made me stop at that point. As a writer with limited resources and is struggling, I commit to my very best to provide you quality and unique stories that will somehow quench your reader taste. To be honest, up until now, I am still learning the world of werewolves and fated mates and stuff. That’s why my n

    Jason’s face crumpled and stared at the wounds on his body. “Don’t you think it’s weird?” “What?” “I’ve been kidnapped, but they treated my wounds.” “Yeah, I agree. What else could be the reason that they were keeping you alive?” Jason scratches his chin and looks at the ceiling seriously. “I don’t know…” He continues, “They’re trying to get something from me.” His jaw locked. We fell in silence. He looked at me again. “Where’s Elaine by the way?” I blushed. “She’s out to get me food.” I lied with a poker face. “Oh,” he nodded, “you’re hungry…” “Yeah. I crave something… sweet.” He fell quiet. “Let’s just wait for her.” Both of us agreed to ‘wait’ for Elaine before we escaped to my white mansion. Elaine has been kidnapped by them, and I woke up in my mansion after that with my brother pounding on the doorstep. However, a blaring sound of an alarm echoed inside, and a monotone and robotic voice spoke on the speaker. “Code 134. Code 134. Code 134. An alien got into the hospita

    I know Rowan is stupid, but I didn’t expect him to be dumber than a street dog. He only had a few back up from his kind, but half of them were now on the floor. People were going crazy inside the restaurant as I stumbled on my table and grabbed Elaine’s wrist to get her out of this place. However, a blonde Hearteater kicked my knees and pounced on Elaine’s face. And my wife was thrown away from my grip. Words have no place in a fight to the death. My vision blurs and I no longer fucking care who I’ll kill. Anyone who tries to intervene me will fucking die. I lunged at Rowan but fainted at the last second. He goes whistling past me. Rowan encircled me first before his hands stretched out to grab me. I leap onto Rowan like a howler monkey. When he throws his hands up into my hair and yanks, bending over and trying to flip me off, I cling for dear life, viciously digging my nails into him as hard as I can, tightening my grip like a freaking boa constrictor. He spins and rushes ba

    Luna Elaine and I got into a fight an hour later after that. I was ready to prepare for a war. I trained my pack like an army, where death sweeps to wherever we fought alongside each other. Those who want to be part of our journey will sign up voluntarily, those who don't want to, they can freely not. I’m not an authoritarian leader, so it’s up to the choice they will make. However, all men signed up. No one backed down. “Elaine…” I sighed, looking at her tucked up in our bed. She’s been like this for the past few days. I was so busy with the pack that I could only check her up in the evening. Tonight, I couldn’t hold the deafening silence between us anymore. “Please, my wife, don’t be like this.” No response was heard a heartbeat later. “Can you just support me?” I heard her muttering a heavy sigh before turning at me. “Why will I support someone who wants to be a killer? You’ll be no different compared to the Hearteaters.” My jaw moved, and I couldn’t help but to look awa

    Tyler’s POV I thought it will be a peaceful night. We were bombarded with the news circulating in the pack about a pulp who was found dead in the middle of the woods. The guards who were having their nightly rotation immediately reported to the headquarter’s office about the said situation. “We thought it was a human, but it turns out it was one of our pack, Alpha,” Geoffrey, a guard on duty, explained to me. A mixture of jasmine and vanilla filled my nose.I glanced at the far left corner, and there, I saw Elaine’s shadow. Her eyes were telling me that she was worried. Very worried. I quickly went to her and grabbed her arms. “What are you doing here?!” “What do you mean?” She scoffed. “Someone from Stella’s Soul is dead!” “As if it was new to you,” I growled. “That’s why you shouldn’t be here, Elaine. Go back to our mansion!” “Are you kidding me, Tyler?” “No, I am not.” I sighed, my chest felt heavy while my eyes roamed around the place. The guards saw my gesture as a

    Tyler’s POV The smell of burning flesh flooded the air, choking me in desperation as I watched my wife burn. My wife. My mate. “My Elaine…” ‘You love her?’ Remus asked. I continue to watch flames erupt from her and burn the nearby grass. “Yes,” I muttered loudly. As loud as Elaine’s shrieks, whose bones are probably melting this very second I hesitated. ‘Then save her.’ Hesitation flooded my face and mind. But this is not the time to cower. No, I have been a coward long enough. It’s time to make little sacrifices of my own. I forced my body and soul to crawl near her, disregarding the tears that tried to hinder my sheer sight. Elaine sacrificed herself for us—burned herself for us, even killing our child in her womb. This is wrong. Utterly wrong. Minutes ago, I imagined her killing myself—drowning her into the very spring where I used to bathe to clear my thoughts.

    Tyler’s POV I parted my mouth from her trembling lips. She was cold and pale despite the balmy breeze here in the spring. Something is wrong with her. I can smell it. Feel it. My hands immediately reached for her bag even before she could protest. And there was only gasoline and matches, a torch and a lighter. “So we’re going to have a barbecue and you didn’t bring any meat?” She chuckled, eyes looking straight at the body of water before us. “I hope you can teach me how to hunt. A rabbit will do.” She’s been speaking all along without looking me in the eyes. Something is very wrong here. The doctor just called me minutes ago that Elaine is acting suspiciously, disturbingly. Asking questions about burning and suicide, says it’s about a book she’s reading. The once joyful Elaine, my Elaine, has suddenly become cold and distant. Scared and worried. “What’s wrong, my snow flower?” She

    Several full moons have passed, distress is still whispering in my mind. I have finished reading Rowena’s journal as far as I can remember—before the moment my eyes burned upon Tyler seeing a bloody blade in the trash, forcing me to make up excuses believable enough for a pregnant, powerless eighteen-year-old woman like me. I never felt sadder than today. It felt like, since I already knew enough from Rowena’s journal, I no longer felt the need to live. And I…I remained prepared for whatever unexpected might happen. What unexpected things I might let happen. I stared at the she-wolf doctor’s face. She’s calm and gorgeous compared to me. I might still look beautiful on the outside. But deep inside, I’m panicking. Quivering and anxious about what may happen in any minute now. I’m ready to die, yet still afraid of death. “You must be extra careful, Elaine. Since you’re in your final trimester, you’r

    “Why are we having pasta for breakfast again?” Tyler sighed, his muscles tensing. “For carbs and to give us energy, I guess.” Even if he’s going to feed me a bucket of Carbonara, it will still not give me enough energy to face Eliane. To face all of these shenanigans and bullshits that has been causing chaos in my head. I thought being here in Stella’s Soul is just being a wife to a werewolf, pleasing the Alpha, being good to other Stella’s Soul residents, fucking my Alpha husband and giving birth to his heir. Those were the things I have expected ever since I’ve learned about their world. Until I learned about the Hearteaters. And Rowena and dark magic, Eliane and this fucking bitchcraft which involves the fact that I must die so that the latter can resurrect. “Why Elaine? You don’t like pasta for breakfast?” I nodded. I forced my feet to stand when he blocked me, eyes burning with emotions I couldn’t fathom
