Cassy's pov"Why can't you just let me be? Let me out of this hell!" I yelled at the man. There was silence as he just smiled at me. That had always been his answer ever since I was kidnapped into this hellhole."Don't worry, I think your time here is up," he announced, walking toward me."I won't die here! Where is that motherfucker?" I cursed, afraid yet daring. I was getting desperate. I don't care if I die here. It's the same if I wasn't going to be let out. My eyes were fixed on the man with overflowing white hair. His aura makes him look ancient and frightening. I was sure he was the sorcerer who made the poison that Brynlee consumed. I felt cold running down my spine at the thought of what might happen to me this time around. I didn't want to end up like those people in the room I just escaped from. But then I don't want to be here either because that's also death for me. It's been a month I was kept hostage and I have escaped more than ten times but always end up in the sa
Brynlee's POV"How are you feeling now, Aunt lee?" The beautiful girl before me asked as she poured the hot tea on the mug that laid silently on my lap."I'm fine, dear. What did you say your name was again?" I asked, smiling. She stared at me for a while then smiled."My name is Elise, you can call me little Elise. I am Uncle's favorite niece," She proudly announced with her chest puffed out, grinning. "Oh, I see. Your Uncle must be a very good guy," I said and she nodded."Uncle is the best but he is always jealous of me," She said then tilted her head sideways."Jealous of you?" I asked, amused by her cute expression."Yes. Uncle is usually jealous because you love me the most!" She let out, grinning even wider. Was that the truth? I just wish I remember even a tiny little bit."You still don't remember Uncle, Aunt lee? Why did you forget about him? That's so mean of you," She pouted and surprisingly I had this strong urge to grab her cheeks and pinch it.What's wrong with me?"It
Brynlee's POV'I told you not to think too much!' Alveria's calm voice came In and strangely my head cooled just from those words she spoke.'Thank you, ' I genuinely said then went after the young girl who was already in the arms of a tall beautiful woman in black jacket and grey pants."How are you doing today?" The lady chuckled then stared at me with that same gaze. "Brynlee, how are you doing?" She asked, softly as she let go of the girl. I stared at her completely lost about what was going on.Does she know me too? I guess that explains why she called me by my name. I nodded at her words and didn't say much after that."You can join us at the table. There's enough space to sit," Loren said calmly and I nodded then took a seat. I made sure to sit far away from Maverick.'You have to appear natural. You don't have to show them too much weakness. Just from the look of things and how they welcome you, I think they are good people.' Alveria said to me. I nodded then picked the fill
Author's POVThe cracking sounds of crickets and croaks of frogs rang out in the silent night. Below the swaying leaves of giant trees was the beautiful woman, Brynlee."How much longer am I going to keep on moving?" She sighed helplessly as she looked around observing the silent and eerie trees. 'It wouldn't take long before you get to the place. It's a spacious land and two feets away from it is a hideous place where you can successfully complete the transformation,' Alveria replied."I'm so tired. I've been walking for an hour now. I am sure by now, Maverick might have noticed my absence," She muttered to herself as her feet stepped on the dry leaves on the floor. She listened to the silent sounds of insects in the background and the soft whispers of the wind."It's not going to be an easy one today," She muttered to herself but stopped abruptly when she heard a crack sound coming from her left hand side. 'Someone is here!' Her heart rate quickens as silent took over the forest n
Uncle Beth's POV" I heard the news. I hope she's doing fine now?" I asked for the 2rd time since I got into this mansion. Maverick seems too distant and distracted than what I expected to see.I wondered what happened?"Yes, she's fine now. She still have you recover from the injuries she sustained," He replied and I nodded "True. Can you tell me how she got those injuries? I mean she couldn't have been attacked from inside mansion?" I asked. He sighed heavily then stared at me."She's perfectly fine. She didn't sustained any serious injuries. She got that from being clumsy," He coldly replied then got up to leave." But why are you stopping me from seeing here then? If truly her injuries aren't so serious let me see her. Or have you disregarded me so soon after what I've done?" I calmly asked as I emphasize on the 'i've done,'I made sure to remind him of the favour that he hasn't repaid back. Well, it's not like I was expecting anything useful from him anyways."She's at the phys
Brynlee's POVI watched as he stared at me with great shock on his face then he closed his eyes and sighed."Did the tea invoke a bad memory?" He asked as he walked towards me. I stared at him coldly without saying a word but then when he stood two feet away from me I started feeling strange."Brynlee?" He called out but I wasn't listening to him as mind was already captured by his eyes and for an unknown reason I felt like jumping into his arms.What's going on?!"Excuse me, I appreciate your kindness for bringing me here but don't you ever think that will make me get anyway close to you," I coldly said to him without batting an eye. I watched as he stared at me with disbelief in his eyes but then he went silent and a cold expression appeared on his face."Young lady, I'll take it as you being in a bad mood," He nodded then planned to leave but I wasn't going to let him leave like that."What's with the change of expression? Tell me! Oh? You want to leave now because you feel guilty?
Maverick's POV"So do you like the rumors going about in the palace?" I calmly asked her and she scoffed and closed her eyes. I tightened my hands and loosen it, then walked towards her."Brynlee" "Leave me alone."She groaned. I sighed then claimed the bed and pinned her down with her face pressed against the pillow."How would it feel if I made you go through half of what you had caused in the palace these days?" I leaned against her back, while making sure I didn't hurt her."Let go of me!" She screamed but I didn't listen to her."I'll only do that if you walk out of here and apologize to them. Don't you know what it feels like to lose your title? You lose your name and everything. That throne has been empty for a long and now that you are back you want to destroy it? Who does that?" I was baffled by all these.What type of human Is this? Aish, I forgot she's no longer a human but still.She's so stubborn!"Can you let me go now?" She asked but I didn't move. Instead, I ran my han
Maverick's POVI swallowed hard, ready to take her into my arms. Perhaps, it was for the better. I drew her closer to my chest as I tried to grab her rounded buttocks. My heart was beating and my loins were throbbing hard.Just when I want to get down to business, I heard a voice penetrating through my head. "We are here," Loren's voice jolted me out of my thoughts. Was I too love deranged that I was daydreaming about my own mate? I thought it was real and I was about to have the most romantic moment with my mate. Unfortunately, I was called out of the reverie by my damn Beta.I stared at him and saw him nodding to the music playing in the car. I looked outside and saw an average looking home. It was unlike the first house I took Brynlee from. "This place?" I asked to be sure. He stood dan then looked outside."Yes, it is. Is there something wrong?" He asked."No, let's hope that they are Inside," I replied, then unlocked the door and got out of the car. The faint morning breeze br
