WOLF
Time flies when you have so much to do. I think the same has happened to me.
A lot of time have passed. I have managed to convince the Elf Queen Marissa to fight on our side when we finally go to war with my father. It took me a month alone to visit her again and again and convince her every day.
I think her crush on me has played a part in her agreement. But I don’t care about it.
Now, I have to convince the Vampire King Luther as well. It’s not going to be easy.
I know this, but I am already here — The spell bound part of the world where sun never rises.
The pulsating magic wall is visible to my eyes but it’s all dark, stormy ocean to humans eyes — it’s an illusion to mislead humans into thinking that there is nothing, but lifeless ocean here.
I place my hand against the wall and
WOLFI raise my head and look at the wall in front of me.I am in the dungeons, on my knees. Silver chains are locked around my wrists, their ends leading up to the wall behind me. This stretches my arms high above my shoulders, the silver digging in my skin and the smell of flesh burning hitting my nostrils.I think this was the smell which woke me up in the first place. And then the pain followed. Pain doesn’t affect me as much as the smell does. I have always hated these scents and smells.The metal door to the dungeon is pushed open and Luther steps inside before walking towards me.I lift my head higher, not giving a fuck about how this gesture makes the silver dig deeper in the skin of my wrists.Luther comes to a stop in front of me and one of his minions rushes inside, bringing a chair with him. The minion places the chair down and Luther sits down before crossin
VIOLET“ Think of a place where you want to go. ” Gysla groans for the uncountable time.I close my eyes and only see the prevailing darkness before the darkness clears and my mind begins to imagine my room at the mansion.I grit my teeth, focusing harder than before. Tingles begin to rise on my body making me sigh softly.This breaks my concentration and when I open my eyes, I find myself in the same place, outside the mansion.“ You can’t focus. Why can’t you focus?! ” Gysla grabs her hair between her fingers and pulls at them in frustration.I drop down on the ground, stretching my legs.“ Maybe…I can’t teleport like you. ” I tell her in a defeated voice and lay down on the muddy ground without a care in the world.A whole month have passed. A whole FUCKING month. And I am still unable to teleport myself.Forgive me cursing so suddenly, but
VIOLETIt’s like I just travelled through the light into the dark. It’s night time here and it's gloomy and eerie for some reason.“ WHO ARE YOU?! ” A female voice shrieks beside me.I look around. There are people all around me in what seems to be a market.At the distance, I see the huge castle calling out to me.I take a moment to breath. Did I…just teleport?“ Catch her! ” A man yells and footsteps get near me.They all meet the hard protective magic shield around me, their bodies getting electric shocks which makes them step back from me.I walk through the people who part to give me way. Some of them still try to attack me, but their attempts are futile.More people rush to me and try their best to break the shield around me while I keep my head straight and my eyes fixed at the high towered castle.Where am I? I don’t know. Yet, I know he is
VIOLETA thick, consuming silence falls between Wolf and me. He seems to be thinking about ways to get me out of here.I sigh and stare at his hanged head. He went completely silent after I told him that I didn’t know how to teleport — this happened at least an hour ago.Now, his silence is beginning to annoy me.“ Say something. ” I mumble under my breath.My eyes move to his wrist, the blood now dripping down them heavily. Bile rushes to my mouth and I barely hold back myself from doubling over and throwing up.“ You were lying to the King when you said you could raise a wall. I know for a fact that you only know how to raise a protective wall around you. ” He speaks up, lifting his head and meeting my gaze.My eyes travel down, staring back in his Golden orbs.“ Yes. I mean…I only know how to build a defensive wall of magic around me but…The wall around
VIOLETLuther Vladimir tells me all about Wolf, about Katrina and her return from the Orphena when the former Orpheuns died at the hands of my mother, about what he did to Wolf, about the offer of Katrina and Wolf’s offer of having him talk to his dead wife once.This enrages me. Wolf did everything without even asking me once. He should have told me about it beforehand. I am not a puppet who is supposed to do everything he wants me to do.At last, Luther Vladimir tells me about who killed his wife. “ A western coven Witch — Gysla killed my wife. ”This makes all my anger disappear at once.“ Does Wo — Liulf knows who killed your wife? ” It’s a stupid question, I know. But, I have to ask.“ Yes. He does. ” Luther replies without giving it a second thought.I suck my lips in my mouth, my wide eyes flickering acr
VIOLETTalk about bad luck and bad planning at the same time.I sigh, hanging my head. Should I tell him the truth?Wouldn’t he be more angry because I wasted so much of his time?“ What’s wrong? Don’t you want to make that promise anymore? ” Luther questions, his tone mocking me.I lift my head and look him in the eye.‘ Make a wise choice. ’ Wolf’s words echo in my mind, making me think everything through.Right here, I don’t have much options. And I lack time too.Katrina is coming here anytime soon. If I decide to not make this promise, I don’t think these Vampires will still hand me over to Katrina, but they will…hand over Wolf to send Katrina away.Knowing Katrina, I can say that she would be able to know I am here as soon as she comes. And these Vampires will fight to keep me with themselves — because I am now an asset to the King, a way to bri
VIOLET“ Viktor. You have done enough. I don’t need you to do anything else now so take your leave. ” The King is quick to correct his son’s mistake of revealing his weakness to the supposed enemy.A small smile plays on my lips as Viktor rubs the back of his head.“ Yes My King. ” Throwing me a smile of his own, he takes his leave.Benjamin follows Viktor, leaving me alone with King Luther.“ You don’t actually know how to raise a wall, do you? ” Luther whispers after a while.My heart skips a beat. I drag my tongue across my lips which still taste like blood.“ I promised to raise a wall. ” I remind him.“ But you don’t know how to do it. ” Luther voices out the truth once more.How did he know? The question strikes me.“ I have lived for hundreds of ye
VIOLET“ You do it all the time. Tell me something new. ” Wolf sighs.He leans towards the wall, resting his shoulder against it. His wrists are still bleeding and the wounds don’t look like they are going to heal anytime soon.When a werewolf gets injured with silver, the wound takes a lot of time to heal anyway.I set my lips in a thin line and drag my eyes to his face. Wolf’s eyes are closed now as he takes deep breaths.He is weak. What did they do to him to make him so vulnerable?Wolf opens his eyes after a moment and trains them on my hand which has dried blood all over it. I raise my palm to my eyes and heave a heavy breath.The wound has healed, probably due to Viktor’s blood that I drank.“ You made a blood promise with the King? ” Wolf doesn’t sound surprised at all, as if he expected me to make this choice

VIOLETI met everyone. Gysla, Cora, Elias, Viktor — my sweet, supportive friend, even Edward who turns out to be the newly appointed Orpheuns.Now I know what Leena meant by restoring the balance. It all started when Edward’s powers were snatched away from him and Katrina escaped before Edward could get to Orphena, and it is ending with him getting his powers back.I don’t feel bad anymore because Edward has a good vibe. He is nice to me and he loves Gysla.By the way, Gysla kept apologising for stabbing me and then Wolf but I have told her that if she hadn’t done this…Wolf and I would have lost each forever. Besides, it is all fate and we are pawns in this dangerous game — I don’t even feel salty about not having control of my life.I have…everything. Like the old man said.The happy faces around me only assure me of that everything that I needed and now, have gotten.Another thing has happened in a mere hour. With Edward’s arrival, everyone has found out that I am not the Orpheuns,
WOLFOne.Two.And three.The bathroom’s door bursts open on the count of three and Violet stomps out.Contrary to my over expectations, she has actually taken a bath before she has come stomping out. I don’t have to turn around and look at her to know this. She smells like her usual self and me.Her eyes try to drill holes in my head. I know why she is angry. My mark over my neck tells me all I want to know.Serves her right, I must say. She tricked me into getting marked and I have done the same, now we are childishly equal.“ You marked me. ” She states the obvious.“ I did. ” I nod my head and pick up the black dress shirt I had thrown over the bed earlier.“ How can you do this to me? ” She complains.I smirk, buttoning up my shirt. Turning around, I glance her way.Her small body looks cute wrapped in a towel and her red face only adds to the effect. But the love bites on her neck and my mark on her only turns me on, which is not helping my situation.I button up my last button
VIOLET“ If you are done feeling my presence in silence, you should get up and take a bath now. ” I speak after a while.“ You are right. ” He hums.His hand releases mine and I inhale sharply. Now I wish I hadn’t asked him to leave my hand.I shake my head internally and fold my arms over my chest. Wolf gets up from the bed and before I get the chance to say anything else, he picks me up, throws me over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes and begins to walk.My world turns upside down and I gasp, hitting his back with my fists. “ Put me down! ”“ You insisted on taking a bath. ” He continues to walk.“ I mean…you need to talk a bath. Not me! I already smell like flowers. ” I say, staring down at his back and his butt.“ I don’t like it. ” Wolf shakes his head and sighs.“ What? ” I question.My head is beginning to spin while my body sways with each step that he takes but I don’t really want Wolf to put me down.“ I like your natural scent. I don’t like you smelling like all these w
VIOLETIs this what ceasing to exist feels like? I am not sure.I can only focus on the fact that he is right in front of me, his lips pressed against my forehead and his breaths warming my hair.It feels surreal.I thought everything has ended but now I am here, hearing Wolf say that he loves me and I am his world. He is not acting overly excited or miserable either so I don’t know what’s going on.Although, I feel weak and this loss of energy makes me feel alive. Given that I spent so much time at Orphena, a year must have passed here since I died.“ Are you…not… ” I choke on my breath, trying to say something.One moment I was the most powerful being turning to dust and in the next, I am here, a weak girl lying in the bed, clueless about what is happening.What went wrong…or should I say right?“ Wolf…” I say his name and he separates himself from me instantly.The torment finally shows in his Golden globes and my breath gets knocked out of me.“ Don’t say anything. Stay silent fo
WOLFI should have known by the way she looked at me. I should have known that she was planning on taking my place all along. I should have known that she was silently reaching out to me, telling me about the future.Yet, I didn’t know until it was too late.The moment I stepped inside that portal, I felt a trigger going off in my head and I knew. It felt like a piece of me was breaking away, chipping away. I looked at her, tried to reach out and yet failed.After a while, my body jerked awake and a gasp left my lips. ‘Violet’. That’s all I could think about as I searched for her frantically and found her dead body lying close to me a week ago. What would you do for a loved one? I have known killing others was the only answer when it came to protecting and then avenging the people you loved.That’s why I instantly went into the killing mode the moment I heard my mother died. Years went by and I didn’t recover from that state of mind. The truth is…I never even considered everything
KANEI am sure I saw her lips part and then press together as if she had mouthed a word.Squinting my eyes, I lean closer to her face while my ears unconsciously search for her heartbeat.Just a hint, Violet. Give me something. I silently pray staring down her at her motionless face.My hands reach out to her face, touching it to feel the warmth, a spark of life in her.“ What happened? ” Cassius comes to me, questioning and looks over my shoulder.“ Her lips moved. ” I whisper dumbly.“ That’s not possible, Kane. ” Stefan comes on the other side of me, squeezing my shoulder.I shake my head, still touching her cheeks and listening in for her heartbeat. She is not breathing, her heart is not beating either but I…I saw her lips move.“ Kane. This is affecting you. Why don’t you go take some rest? ” Cassius suggests, getting worried about me.I don’t know what expressions they are seeing on my face right now to be wanting to send me away at a crucial time but I know what I saw.“ Her li
KANEIn my whole life, I have never truly believed in miracles. But I saw one happen a week ago when Wolf came back to life, when his dead heart started to beat again, when even the wound of silver healed on his body, when he opened his eyes and said only one word ‘Violet’.Then, he went silent. Didn’t say anything at all. Although he came back to life, his soul had died.I hadn’t really gotten over this miracle when I came to a realisation that even miracles required sacrifices.He came back and she left us.Was this any less horrible, any less painful, any less heart—breaking? No. When her heart stopped beating, I began to feel the exact way I felt when I saw Wolf die.I didn’t know what happened to her. I didn’t know how she suddenly died. She was not gravely injured and even her wounds had healed, then what happened to her? How did she die?I got the answer to that when Viktor’s mother came and then Edward came. She was dead yet she cared about the living and all the promises she
VIOLETGetting summoned to Orphena is a different experience than that of last time. Last time, I was so desperate and bothered that I didn’t even pay attention to my surroundings that much.This time, I can pause and admire the black ceilings, the black floor, the vast black table placed in the middle of the room and the same people sitting around it, because I have no fear, no desire, no tension. I am ready for whatever they have in store for me.Isn’t ceasing to exist far more better than staying stuck here for the rest of the eternity anyway? Hell yes, in my opinion.“ What excuse do you have this time? ” The boy yawns as if he is bored.I purse my lips before marching towards them and plumping down on the only empty chair.All the higher ups make it their job to glare at me, but refuse to say anything.I glance at the boy first. I don’t know his name — never asked.Then, I look at the old man. I don’t know his name either and the old lady who supported me last time…I don’t know
