Cassy's POVI still laid on my bed with the tears rolling down my eyes, staring at the ceiling as I basked in the shame caused by the disappointment of loosing the first attempt of my recovery plan.At some point, the eyes which had tears rolling down were becoming weakened, and slowly closing as I laid on the bed. Soon, all I saw was just darkness and another world, which even though was my imagination and my mind, didn't still exempt me from the shame and torture which I faced in the real world.It was as though the reminisce of what had occured had continued in the dreaming, and haunting as well, as I continued to cry and wish that what had occured never had occurred.But a knock on the door saved me from this trauma. I could overhear it from the distant world I was in, and I turned round in my dream to trace the source of the sound, with a compelling force on me to awake and address the banging door.I jerked off the bed and walked with sleepy eyes and feet towards the door, and p
Cassy's POVBlood gushing out as she laid on the floor of the library while I watch her life draining slowly without any one coming to her aid....at least, that was what I envisioned as I pushed the shelf quietly.Yes. I was the cause of the shelf falling.I was sitting alone at the farthest end of the library, wishing that she could come in. I had tried several means to get in touch with her all to no avail.She was too guarded. Maverick made sure of it. Brynlee was damn impenetrable since the beginning of her pregnancy. Was he suspecting danger or was it just because of the rogues?Nevertheless, I was lucky the moon goddess granted my wish but as I envisioned her bloody state, I heard her scream and I jolted out of my wish.Then I saved her. That felt more than weird. On a regular day, I would have watched her lay down there and watch the shelf fall and smash her entire body to blood and bones. But there I was, risking my strength and dignity just because I had something I sought
Maverick's POVI wanted to end the meeting. They were becoming useless since none of these elders have anything new to say. It's always the old story of the rogues being different.Damnit! I know better than any of them. I was stabbed by their fucking blood! I need some other news and if we can't find a solution to get rid of them, it's not going to be safe for my people.I was starting to have an headache and I crave for Brynlee's touch. I looked around the gloomy conference room as the elders wore worn out expression on their faces.My eyes caught one of the elders, Elder Holster, casting contemplating glances at me. I knew he wanted to say something and if he was hesitating, it would only mean the issue wasn't related to the rogues.Or was it?"You got something to spill, Elder Holster?" I asked, giving him a piercing glare. He swallowed hard before nodding his head in answer."You want me to make you speechless? Or would you rather start talking and stop wasting my time by nodding
Maverick's POVI looked at Ellen questioningly but Brynlee squeezed my hands tightly. As much as I wanted to respect her wishes, this wasn't one of them. "Tell me what happened, Brynlee" I asked, looking at her sternly for the first time.I saw her looking scared and my heart broke but that was the only way to get her talking. She was one hell of a stubborn person if pampered. I steered my heart into stone so she could come open."I... She... She saved me, truly. She did save me" she stuttered, incoherently.I sighed helplessly at her shaky emotions as Ellen sent me a mindlink to stop. She was going to explain everything to me and that Brynlee was in a sensitive state due to the pregnancy."She saved you? Won't you tell me how she saved you?" I asked, letting go of my stern face. I put on a smile just to tell her I wasn't angry.Then slowly she told me how she almost got crushed by the shelf but was save luckily by Cassy."Although I doubt her sincerity but she indeed saved me and I
Maverick's POVSorcery? "How could you be so sure, doctor? Sorcery can only be done by specific people. Are you trying to lay blame?" Uncle Berth asked, looking at the doctor."I wouldn't dare. I observed the blood I had extracted from His Majesty and our beta's mate. They looked the same and the composition is weird. All my life as a scientist, I have never seen such a composition...""You still haven't answered the question. A weird combination does make it a sorcery. It's impossible for just anyone.." Uncle Berth said, defensively.I furrowed my brows at his words. Even if he was being logical, he should know that the royal physician wasn't just any doctor. Everyone knows Evey royal physician must have a special ability to detect poison in the bloodstream.Besides, he was highly trained by both scientist and a powerful sorcerer. His mentor was the last sorcerer in the kingdom before his death."Uncle Berth, you of all people shouldn't be questioning him about his observations," I
Third POVA certain man walked under the full moon light, dressed in dark Cardigan which had a hoody that covered his head. He walked out of the large gate, walking towards the bushes, having his leg kick through the green grasses while he looked backwards as he moved forward.There was none who kept watch at that period of the night, and so he walked with the confidence and the comfort which the night gave him. He walked until he looked backwards and could tell within himself that the path was clear for him to transform.He took off the hoody slowly away from his head, and the moonlight shone on him so bright that it was evident who it was. Berth! The same man who was a close relative to the Alpha of the pack, and the same man who had called on Cassy to start up his own redemption plan.Slowly, he unzipped what he wore covering his torso, and then slowly, he threw his hands open, breathing in heavy air as he tried absorbing the light from the moon.And then his transformation began.
Brynlee's POVMy mind had not still drifted away from the good things which Cassy displayed as the time went on. It was as though she had other motives, yet, my hands could not place them.Since the event at the library, where I tripped and almost got crushed by a huge shelf, and how she had ran out of the shadows into grabbing the shelf from crushing me, there was something different about her..It was as though she has repented of what she was usually known for. It was as though she was different at that point, and though my mind didn't feel pleased with what she showed off, the evidences of her changed lifestyle was not easy to deny.Ellen and all that knew her perfectly before I had even arrived in the werewolf world had warned me countless times about her, and how sneaky, terrible and manipulative she was.Well, that had to be true seeing what had happened that led to the good news which I still enjoyed today. How she had tried with all of her strength and her assets to lure my m
Brynlee's POVAwwnnn! Little Elise wanted to have another time with me again. It has been damn too long since I had set eyes on her, reasons being that I was still locked up because of her own safety, hence, only others could come set eyes on me, and little Elise was no different."Aunty Lee..." her tiny little voice called out to me, and I couldn't help but crouch down to her level so I could stare into those tiny beautiful eyes of hers."Hello Elise. How you doing?" I asked her as I placed my hand around her shoulders, and the smiled at her."I came to see you. They told me you couldn't come out of the room. Why? Is it because of Uncle?" she asked with curious eyes, staring at me.What term would I use to explain to the little one that all things were fine but in was pregnant and needed to stay safe away from harm and unnecessary stress.?Besides, who would have told her that I was never allowed to step out of the room? I guess she had searched for me for a long time and had decided
Little Elsie was sent to the royal physician who conducted a test and said she was fine.Willow on the other hand wasn't having a good time."It will take her months to heal," The physician said."Mother." Brynlee sighed then kisses her forehead. The unconscious Willow was taken away and Maverick pulled her into a hug."Everything will be fine from now on," Maverick smiled then kissed her lightly on her lips.Brynlee nodded then stared at the place he was stabbed. He noticed how worried he was and he sighed."I'll be fine in a few days. I have to leave now. The palace needs some rumination." maverick annouced.Brynlee nodded and watched as he left. Days went by after that and the new palace for the Solar pack was in place.Two huge status stood magnificently at the entrance to the palace and it won't take someone a second to see that it was the Luna and her Alpha."Sir there's a report,"Loren walked inside the study room of Maverick who was going through some files.Maverick stared at
"You came?" He asked with heavy breath, staring at her as she still struggled in cutting the rope.She paused and turned towards him, staring at him with a smile on her face before she placed her palm on his face and then replied, "Of course I did. You would do same for me."He smiled at her. The pains he had felt around his hands had already ceased as soon as he could feel her hands around his skin, and for a second, his love for the lady had rekindled ten times more than what he had already felt for her.But all of the emotions were cut off just as soon as his eyes had sighted the movement of a rogue wolf approaching them at a very intense speed."You might want to be a bit faster in cutting off this rope!" He said. "Why?" She asked"Because another is coming in our direction," he said. Her eyes immediately turned backwards as she could also sight the rogue wolf running towards them both, and the tension within her spirit had immediately catapulted."Shit!" She groaned as she kept
AUTHOR'S POVHeavy breath accompanied every hasty step she took round the building. Her eyes moved round the entire building, her face beaded with sweat drops as she stood with her hands on waist, seeming lost in the thoughts of something uncertain."My lady..." A voice sounded from behind her which interrupted her train of thoughts, causing her to turn backwards in view of who had called towards her."He's not here! He's not anywhere in the building" Loren said. His eyes were squeezed at the sight of her facial reaction. Her face was squeezed, as though tears were about to fall down her face.She turned back and forth, already sniffling her nostrils with the hasty breath increasing as the seconds passed by. Her hands were on her head, her fingers rushing through her already scattered hair in thoughts of what next she could do.She searched for Maverick as soon as the strangest feeling pierced through her heart. She had started her search, but when she had seen the impossibility of he
As soon as Alexandria and Regina was taken away, hurried footsteps were heard coming towards the place they were. It was Loren and Tamara who heard about another poisoning episode."I heard about what happened. Are you both fine?" Loren rushed inside the mansion along with Tamara.Brynlee stopped with what she was doing then stared at the couple who just came in."Loren? Tamara?" Her eyes widened in surprise. Tamara stared at her, surprised then stared at Maverick who gave a short nod."You finally remember us?" She asked with watery eyes. Brynlee nodded frantically and they both held each other screaming."I thank God that everything is fine now," Loren walked towards Maverick. He took a seat on one of the sofas while he watches the ladies.He was about to say something but Maverick phone started ringing. He stared at the buzzing phone and the table."Hello?" Maverick coldly asked. He knew who the caller was and he wondered why he called?"Are you free?" Uncle Berth's voice sounded f
Author's POV"Is it because it's poison?" Willow asked and Alexandra's brows creased together."How dare you give an accusation without proof?" Alexandra thundered."You know what I hate the most? It's dramas. It's either you give her that pie like she requested or get your head on a platter for being a traitor," Brynlee coldly replied."Mr Maverick! Will you let her talk to your guest like that?!" Alexandra accused.Maverick stared at her then back at the pie. If the woman knew how much he pampers his mate, she wouldn't dare ask him that. But for the fact that they are trying to deceive Alexandra, he just had to play along. "Is it truly poisoned?" He calmly asked. Alexandra's eyes widened in disbelief. Why was Maverick suddenly believing them? Didn't he ask her over here because he wanted her help? Wasn't that why he always danced to her tune? "You don't believe me?" She feigned a sad look on her face. Maverick simply stared at her without saying a word. Alexandra's hands tightene
Willow's POVThere were so many words I wished to tell my daughter. I wish I could tell her how sorry I was to leave her alone all these years. I wish I could stop all the maltreatment she received from Alexandra after the death of her father.But I just couldn't. I didn't want to make her life more complicated than it already was. How could I tell her that she was at risk then because I broke the rule of witches?Back then, powerful witches of the royal bloodline were forbidden to mate with humans. That was how we were taught, not until I met Brynlee's father. He was so perfect that I fell in love with him.But of course, I knew the implications of what I was getting myself into. To protect him, I wanted to denounce my witchy powers. I was determined to be ordinary so I could be with Brynlee's father.I never knew those were just my wishful thinking. The man I fell in love with lied to me. I found out another woman was pregnant with his child. Filled with fury, I wanted to destroy h
Third Person POVUncle's Beth's gaze sharpened as he stared at the shadow standing at the window.There was a moment of silence before it slowly disappeared from there. "What's that?" He muttered as he quickly ran towards the window to check but no one was there. He sighed then turned towards the dressing table. He picked the bottle with serenity and placed it gently inside the drawer."Get ready to meet your demise," He chuckled lightly as he climbed the bed and slept soundly.Hours passed in the blink of an eye and it was morning already. A maid walked towards his room and knocked gently."Sir, breakfast is ready," The maid said but he simply ignored her. He wore his suit and walked past her."Tell the driver to get the car ready. I'll be there in 4 minutes," He said to the maid as he made himself a coffee. The maid nodded and dash off to relay the order. Few minutes after that, he was on his way to Maverick's mansion. It didn't take long before the car pulled into the mansion."W
Alexandra's POV"How long have you been here, willow?" I asked the frightened woman before me."It hasn't been long, ma'am. I only came here to inform you that I have to head back home now. I do not have any money with me and I don't think I can stay in this place stranded," She replied.My brows creased at her words but then she said right. She can't spend all her time here without earning from it.She needs money to survive and I don't expect to keep her around me. There are a lot of maids in here who can meet all my needs but then… I do not think they are worthy of my trust.So that's where she comes useful."Ma'am," She called out."Yes, you can stay," I gasp out then sighed."I can't stay here, ma'am. I need money," She argued."Money Is not the problem. I will pay you while you do some minor jobs for me. Let's just take it as our usual routine before I came here. I can't trust anyone in this palace and I've known you for a month now. Apart from Regina, you are the next person I
Alexandra's POV"We are here," Loren said as we entered the grandiloquent building. I couldn't help but gasp at how beautiful and luxurious it was.Is this really the place where my 'daughter' has been living? My eyes rolled at this but I still made sure to feast my eyes with everything I could see. I watched as the maids quickly take our luggages towards the Mansion and they all look so happy with their work "Woow," I gasped in disbelief. Don't tell me they are enjoying the luxury here?Hell yeah! It's better I stick to the deal and stay here forever but… I do not think the clean way is good."Ma'am, is there anything I can do? I mean, you asked me to come over leaving the house empty," a disturbing voice interrupted my inner happiness.I turned to stare dagger at the haggard looking maid I brought with me. If not that she was very good at her job and somehow, I just can't chase her too."What's that name of yours again?" I asked, making sure to sound demeaning."Willow" She said
